Severe Cold Gripping Entire Nation Nine Out of Ten Affected Doctors Claim Herbs of Life Would Relieve Situation If Druggists Could Supply the People This is the most treacherous time of the year and people all over the country are suffering from terrible colds, which generally begin with sneezing and slightly coughing then gradually it develops into a violent stranding cough, together with heartiness, soreness of the chest and a general aching of the entire body. Many people suffer attacks which later develop into "Flu" and pneumonia through mere negligence or because they know too much or too little, to take the advice of people who know more than they do. Some cities report that nine out of every ten persons are affected, and the Doctors claim that something must be done to accelerate the distribution of Double Strength Herbs of Life among the suffering people so that the increasing death toll may be arrested. Hospital authorities and doctors are absolutely amazed at the way Double Strength Herbs of Life so often almost beheadless. They claim that Double Strength Herbs of Life, if taken in time, will take care of the most serious cases, and a full treatment of six bottles invariably does the work. The most serious case will respond to a full treatment of Double Strength Herbs of Life. On account of the great demand for the medicine, the factory is going night and day to cope with the situation, and the 11 branches of the company, the strength and the company are being their utmost to supply their orders as fast as they receive their quotas of supply from the Home Office of Company in California. The Baltimore Branch alone distributed 50 car-loads of Herbs of Life last week, and yet was unable to supply several druggists, so if your druggist cannot supply you, rest assured that he cannot get it. you, get it At this time we wish to only attention to the fact that many unsuccupious manufacturers are offering to the public a substitute for Double Strength Herbs of Life.

PICKENS OUT OF HARMONY WITH HIS CHURCH - COPPIN No Hell, No Heaven, and No Rising From Dead" Draws Fire Also of Bishop J. A. Johnson MINISTERS GIVE VIEWS None in City Found Willing To Support Doctrine of Former Local Educator If any supporters of Dr. William Pekens "No hell, no heaven, and no resurrection from the dead" theor- case in Baltimore, the AFEO-AMERI- sary reporter has not been able to receive the news. Asked what he thought of Dr. Pickens' views as expressed in last weeks Amy Annexx, Bishop Levi L. Coppin, of Philadelphia, of the M. E. Church, declared, "Dr. Pickens said these things, he is out of harmony with the prevailing doctrine of the Christian Church, and devotes of the church of which he is a member." Pickens J. Albert Johnson, also of Philadelphia, and head of the Second Episcopal Dietary, which includes Baltimore, said in my opinion, Pickens has not expressed views of the modern churchman. Dr. Baltimore, Dr. Pickens' arti- formed the general topic of conversation during the week. Dr. E. H. Perkins, pastor of Metropolitan M. E. Church, declared, "I love in heaven, hell, resurrection; all the things Dr. Pickens says do not believe in." Examines: W. T. Cook 113 Churches said: I am not surprised by Dr. Pichols doubts the rearrangement of the body. Two-thirds of the bodies denies the things they possess. Dr. Pichols is not the worst gallman, but his conditions is lax, for there is no greater impatience to try a sedation there, which is good by any means and is not necessary. He is not doubtless the惟愿 that is most in itself that he does not believe in the divinity of Christ. Bishop P. A. Bouthien, of Philadelphia, of the Union American M. E. Church declines. "The dangers of Dean Pichols' views only lie in the influence they might have on our young people. Many of them are accepting, but some are accepting by faith that a little mind cannot hope to positive. It is wrong for a man who stands high in the counsels of the church and of the grace so to introduce others." Dr. C. E. Stewart, pastor of Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, Washington, said, "Dr. Pickens is crazy if he were a member of my church I would prefer charms against him." Dr. John T. Colbert, pastor of Good Shepsterian Church, said, "The Bible does not say that it was what a simple man says that God required a great fish. This is the flaw translation. If the meal is lobed increased, why could I not prepare a great fish large enough to swallow Jonah." Possibly Dr. Pickens may know science he does not know Theology. No one has ever proved by science that there is no heaven, hell, or resurrection, and never will to the satisfaction of the soul's desires and the desires of the Bible." Dr. C. E. Edward Brown, pastor of People's Christian Church, Bond and Jefferson streets, said, "Dr. William Pickens is either losing his mind, sickness or aping Dr. Grant, but reminds me of a dog barking at the sun." Rev. C. H. Green, 1298 Argyle ave. A little off or hunting popular, I didn't think it of him." Rev. J. Ross, Calibon and Winchester stress: "Very much surpassed at reading such expressions on one of our educators. My opinion is that he is simply writing for feet. Perhaps trying to imitate Dr. Grant." Rev. J. G. Martin, pastor Payne memorial A. M. E. Church: "Proofless is late in his belief. He professed his belief when he was in the Methodist Episcopal Church, and when he joined the A. M. E. Church. What shall we expect next? He does not believe even what he is publishing." Rev. B. E. Poph, 1777 Wrennish street: "I may say of Professions, what Fostus said of Paul, such learning hath made thee so." Rev. J. A. Biscoe, Elliott City, "Why not say there is no God, give us a clean sweep." Rev. C. H. Stepteau, 720 Dolphin "I am sorry for Dean Pickle, he is overboard." Rev. Wm. A. Harris, Elliott City; "I am sorry for such words from a man." W. D. G. Mack, pastor Macedonia Church: "I thought it the location of a man on the outside to attend to religion and of attending to his own which lies in another direc- ment do you think of Picken's way? he say "There is no He- mano Hell and no rising from dead." W. Chas. Briggs, pastor of Con- lateral Church: "Very, very foolish moment. He left Morgan College in time." N. E. S.

JOB EXAMPLE OF RARE FORTITUDE ```markdown ``` Christians Have Much To Learn From Him Says Rev. Joseph Jenkins In Sermon Sunday "As an example of Christian fortitude, turn to the book of Job. We have to learn from him: he declared Levi, the first bishop of Jerusalem, a large congregation which nearly filled John Wesley M. E. Church Sunday morning. "Job" said the pastor" was a man eminent above others for his uprightness and piety. Satan accused him of serving God for mercy motives. To show the falsehood of this charge, God permitted Satan first to take Job his prophet and children and afterwards to smite him with loathsome and distressing disease. "Thus stripped of everything that would make life valuable he still held fast his integrity and blessed God. Three friends who came to comfort him amused at his enemies sat down with him in silence for seven days. After this Job sung with grief grasped the day of his death, and the day God and die" as Satan predicted. Job's grief was the pastor's subject. He explained that "grief was deeper than "mourning" and "sorrow" and expressed the emotion which grips one who has suffered severe losses and shaken him to his foundations. He no harm books were used by the congregation and due to the cold weather the pine organ was not used. Nevertheless remarkable congregational singing led by the choir added to an effective morning service. Rev. Mathias Williams, Reistertown, Md. "I feel sorry for Dr. Pickens. He has science mixed with spiritual affairs." Rev. S. H. Brown, Ashury M. E. Church. "I am really surprised that The flipppant manner in which Dean Fickens expresses himself is extremely silly. What right has he to say that I or any one else who professes to do so, does not believe. Verily all the tools are not dead yet." Dr. Pickens would bring such a reproach upon the fundamentals of our Christian faith." Rev. C. H. Mathews, Pomonkey, Md. "I have been studying the race question for some time and I find that when a white man leads the way, there is always some Negro to follow." Rev. J. H. Taytor, pastor of Mt. Sinai Baptist Church, said, Dr. Pickens' statements are contrary to the Bible and therefore he is in error. Charles Sutchell Morris, Jr. speaking in Kinston, N. C. said, "That little blatherskite called Pickens has nothing on his brain but water." Rev. S. M. Smith, pastor of St. Paul's Christian Church; "Pickens has stopped knocking carvings and begun on Christ." Rev. Ernest Lyon, pastor Ames M. E. Church; "Nobody will be disturbed by Bro. Pickens' ranting." Rev. J. W. Dockett, Lintheum Heights, Md., "Such an argument is on-Scriptural, and the speaker unwise." METROPOLITAN CHURCH ACQUIRES NEW SITE A. REV. JOSHUA H. GREEN The Metropolitan Baptist Church congregation, of which Rev. Joshua H. Green is pastor, and which has been holding their services in the basement of Trinity Baptist Church has, acquired the building and grounds formerly owned by the Service Wise Alam at the corner of Madison avenue and Preston street, according to an announcement made this week by the pastor. The first service in the new location will be held Sunday, when the entire congregation will march from Trinity to the Madison avenue place in a body. This new place, according to Rev. Green, has a presen seating capacity of $80 and the purchase has been made possible by the success of the $10,600 rally that is now in progress. It is aimed to erect a $75,000 community church on this corner, and plans are being made to begin this structure in the early fall. The new congregation numbers about 1200 members, $80 of whom were formerly members of the Echo Baptist Church, says the pastor. Referring to the long drawn-out battle with the Church of the Holy Cross, Rev. Green stated that he had no ill feelings now that the light was ended. "I made a good light," he says, and now that it is over I am glad that no feelings of any kind against those who opposed me exist. I shall only ask for the balance of my salary.

This was as it should be for this company compares favorably with the best on the colored circuits. Emmett McKeever, better known as "Low Down" heads the funmaking ably assisted by "Slick" Carter, in a female impersonation and Rustus Matthews, all three working under cork. McKeever has an original style of humor and in addition, is a fair singer and won several encores for one album also clove with his "dogs" as is Matthews, and one of the hits of the shows is their dancing duet. The feminine lead is handled nicely by Wileen Griffy. The show opens with a mimeage of song and dance, and closes with a skirt entitled "The Jelly Roll Hotel" which affords McKeever further opportunity for his compositions. The jazz book is annotated of Willie Duke, pianist; James King, cornet; Roban Diggs, trombone and Nook Taylor, drums, is one of the best heard here for some time. Dukes being especially clever in tikking the little black and white fellows. Pictures complete the bill.

HOWA V12 rno (Vaudeville and Pictures) Three first-rate vaudeville turns comprise the stage attraction at the National, this week, in the persons of Stemmons and Stemmons man and woman duo; the Harmony Three and Dan Wiley, roller skater. Wiley who is one of the best manipulators of the little wheels that have been seen in these parts won a big hand for several difficult "stunts" especially in dancing, Stemmons and Stemmons presented a nifty singing, dancing and talking turn that drew a warm response, especially the number based on "Mother" during which theady responds one of the own partners on the theme which the partner plays the piano accompaniment. The latter first tickled the audience by spanking the stories to some jazz tunes. The Harmony Three, composed of Blondina Brown, Rosetta Shanks and Flora Bean, stormed the bill, by their fine harmony in several numbers besides individual numbers in which the Misses Shanks and Bean, showed themselves unusually clever handlers of their lower limbs which would give the Ziegfeld Follies' girls a close race for sharpness. Miss Brown looked well in made attire when she made her first appearance. The National management is booking the best screen attractions procurable and invite particular attention to "Peck's Bad Boy" a screen version of the story of the same title starring Jackie Coogan, which will be the feature attraction on Friday and Saturday of this week. This is the first local showing of this picture in a theatre in East Baltimore. (Vaudeville and Pictures) Three vaudeville acts are being offered as the stage attraction at the Star this week, namely, Hughie and Eric; "Happy" Klimbail, former Harvey Minstrel entertainer and Arthur and Arthur. Hughie and Eric, who come from where they went to work two days and was held for two weeks, offer one of the best singing dancing and talking turns ever presented in a local house. Hughee working under cork, is a fine comedie and besides has a fine singing voice while his partner also sings and dances nicely, and is an intelligent follor for Hughee's comedy antics. Their line of chatter is original and is presented mixed with brains. Artinia and her man and woman offer their familiar line of songs, dance and chatter to a good hand, and Kimball won applause for his original sayings, songs and some side-splitting comedy antics in walking an imaginary tighterope.

Viola McCoy, held over for a second week, offered a new batch of songs that wove a big hand and seated bowls, she has a pleasing personality and knows the art of putting her stuff "across" World and Towell are two of the best male singing duos heard here for many moons. Both have fine tenor voices, World's being a robust tenor while Towell who is 58 years old, has a remarkable voice of the "silver" variety for one of his years. They harmonize finely. Mary Bradford, who is one of the best comediennes on the small time pleased as usual, with her breezy line of chatter, and songs closing with her familiar "Blues" entitled: "That Man Of Mine Don't Treat Me Right." Hatch and Hatch opened the bill with songs dancing and chatter to a good band.

It is called "Trooper Onelm," and the star is Charles Jones. A reviewer in another city says of the film: "It is a breath of the Canadian woodlands. When the snow-capped peaks raise their crests, plumed with giant pines. That is the background for a story which is swift in action and engrossing in theme. The beauty of the settings is cleverly blended, with the ever-increasing charm of this spirited romance. Pearl White in "PLUNDER" (2nd Episode) Buster Keaton in "The Frozen North" lainies are well-known to Roosevelt patrons. E. K. Lincoln, the millionaire movie actor who is said to have gone into pictures for the mere sake of doing something, will exchange swats and brushes with the villains in defence of the lovely Ione.

And all of us who believe in Life's drama, with its chapters of gaiety and wit, owe to Dumas a debt of gratitude. NEXT WEEK—"WILDNESS OF YOUTH"—"THE BROADWAY MADONA"-A Fox Special: "SELF MADE MAN." FRIDAY. FEBRUARY. 23, 1923 TO FIGHTING CHAMP Pittsburg, Pa., Feb. 22—(Preston News Service)—Charles Mckee, of Pittsburg, commenting on Negro champions, said, "What could anybody expect of a champion prize fighter. They take the worst alley rat among Negroes and train him for a fighter. If he becomes prominent in the game he is expected by both races to transform an alley rat to a Sunday-school boy. This can't be done. The sudden advance to power caused by the acquisition of big money and attention simply accentuates his "alley rat" inclinations and desires. While on the other hand, the white prize fighter, who also comes from the alley rat gang can do almost anything, except commit murder and he goes about without being regarded as a disgrace to his race. I am convinced that Harry Wills is a different type of man than Jack Johnson. My observations of him make me believe that he level-headed. He is rather tough, not seek the things he likes by the alley gang. He does not appear to be a man honors would turn a tool. He is a clever fighter and will make a good match for Dempsey. He can stand punishment and may defeat Dempsey. If he should become champion, I am satisfied that the Negroes need not fear a repetition of Jack Johnson's conduct." EASON SLAYERS INDICTED New Orleans, La., Feb. 6.—The Orleans parish grand jury in special session Tuesday returned indictments charging Constantine Dyer and William Shakespeare, Jamaicans, with the murder of Rev.

Mobs, Says Church Report CHURCHES NO DETERRENTS Victims' Eyeballs Burned Out in Front of Two Christian Edifices Washington, D. C., Feb. 22 (Crusader Service)—No enemies of the ancients, no scene in Dante's Inferno can equal the description of fortunes inflicted in lynching bees in the United States. Secured in report equivalent by the Commission on the Church and Race Relations of Federal Council of Churches in its educational campaign against tracing. The commission states that it seems heavily believable that America, with its great Christian churches, homes, schools and courts and with its belief-than-thou attitude, allowed, between 1885 and 1921, the lynching of more than 400 persons, of whom 160 were Negroes. To add to the enormity of these crimes against humanity, eight-three of the victims were women. Scores of victims listed as adult males were more youths, 17 of the women lynched were white, the others being colored. MANY VICTIMS INNOCENT OF CRIME "Some of those killed by molts were charged with crimes, many of them only with misdemeanors, some only with words or acts which are nowhere punishable by law at any time. All were slain without trial where they might have faced their accusers, have had witnesses and have had the evidence considered by a lawful judge or jury. A frenzied molt was judge, jury and executioner. In many cases persons not sought by the molts were frenzied in the meantime, so wild and savage the procedure. Some of the victims suffered indescribable torture such as decapitation of parts of the body with kerosene or gasoline, so that they could be burned, or branding with hot irons. WITHIN SIGHT OF CHURCHES In some cases these attractions have been perpetrated within sight of the countries of the community. Here is a newspaper description of a Sunday morning incident near the public source of a town, not far from two churches: The Negro was seated on the ground and a baggy axe driven into the ground between his legs. His lot were claimed together with bagging chains, and he was tied with water. A fire was built. Policers and citizens were proclaimed and heated in the fire. It was 35 minutes before they were red hot. HIS SELF-ADMINISTRATED EXECUTION HAS EXECUTED HIS EXECUTIONS WITH RED HOT IRONS, WHEN HE OPENED HIS MOUTH TO CITY FOR MERYT A RED-HOT TORKER WAS RAMMED DOWN HIS GULLET. RED HOT IRONS WERE PLACED ON HIS FEET AND BODY UNTIL, A HIDEOUT STRENGTH OF RUNNING HUMAN FLESH FILLED THE AIR. "Thousands of people witnessed the scene. They had to be pushed out of the building. N-gro was chained. Roof-tops, second-story windows and porch-tops." DIXIE THEATRE is open for first-class vau- deville. Booking now open were filled with spectators. Children were lifted to shoulders that they might behold the agony of the victim. "A description of another burning was as follows: BURNT TO DEATH BY INCHES "The captors, proceeded to a spot about a quarter of a mile from the railroad station and prepared the death fire. The crowd followed and remained throughout the proceedings. The Negro was led to a bickery tree, to which they chained him. "After securing him to the tree a fire was laid. A short distance away another fire was kindled, and into it was put an iron bar to heat. "When the bur became red-hot, a member of the mob jabbed it toward the Negro's body," Crazed, with fright, the victim grabbed hold of as it was pulled through his hands as it was wiped out with the odor of burning flesh. This was the first evidence the victim gave of his will being broken. Scream after scream rattled the air. As the hot iron was applied to various parts of his body his yelling and cries for mercy could be heard in the town." D. C. PHYSICIAN MISSING Washington, Feb. 14—Dr. N. D.

Other meetings, including periodical conferences of agents and the formation of a central association, are among the future plans. Speaking of the work of the conference, President Goodlee said: "More and more the attitude of the white companies to shun old line colored business makes it necessary that Negro concerns to go more widely into this field. Modern methods of co-operative extension and publicity that will reach the masses of the people and bring them into closer touch with our efforts will be one of our purposes, and the public will be informed from time to time of the progress of this movement.

The Violet in the Snow I wandered over the mountain's brow, the wild winds lored did blow; When looking 'round I chanced to say, A violet in the snow. It raised its little modest head, And seemed to whisper low, "O take me from this frost bed, From this cold bed of snow." A frozen tear was in its eye, Its eye so surely blue; I could not put she flowret by And leave it in the snow. I plucked it from its frost bed, And just my tears did flow; To see it wilten, dying there, That violet in the snow. In this cold world 'tis ever thus, When sorrows round us flow; Some pleasures shine upon our path Like violets in the snow. Nellie Ocknay, Easton, Md.

SCHOOLS SHOW RACIAL COOPERATION Dr. Abram Simons Tells Interracial Conference They are Models for Other Cities INDUSTRIAL SURVEY READ Report Shows That Half of City's Colored Workers Are In Domestic Service No Playgrounds In City The Saturday session of the conference was devoted to reports and a round table discussion of the various commissions. Prof. J. A. E. Cullis, chairman of the Commission on Recreation surveyed the facilities for recreation open to colored people in Baltimore and stressed the lack of place and equipment for directed recreation in connection with the public school system. It was brought to report that with the reception of two schools there was practically no playgrounds in the system and that these two places could not be termed equipped playgrounds. Housing Commission Mr. John R. Carey, head of the Committee, presented an interesting report of the practical work of that commission. It was this phase of the Conference's work that had been singled out for practical solution at the last meeting, and as a result the Homemakers' Building and Loan Association has been organized to carry out a program of housing. This association has been instrumental in enabling a number of colored people to obtain homes easily and has also offered a safe investment for savings. The reports from the Commission on Family Life which is headed by Mrs. Francis King Carey, was given in two excellent talks by Mrs. Sarah Fernandis and Miss Anita Williams on the Venereal Clinic and the St. Paul Divine Home for Girls, respectively.

After comparing the progress of the medical profession in this city with that of Washington and other cities he made a direct appeal for the opening to colored physicians of all opportunities in the various other institutions now open to them twice.

Eriscoe, for an assault alleged to have been committed on her during a service at the Third Seventh Day Adventist Church, corner Roberts street and Druid Hill avenue by Elder M. C. Stracham on July 16, 1921. Ms. Eriscoe claimed that Elder Stimmeo successfully elected her from the front port of the church, tucking her arm and causing internal injuries, when she spoke against the plan to vote the title of the new church property to the conference. The members themselves owned the old building. The suit for recovery of damages was first tried on the 7th and 8th of this month, and a decision handed down by Judge Gortor granting all the prayers of the plaintiff. At this time, however, with the hope that the damage settlement could be made outside of court Judge Gortor held the matter pending this settlement and admonishing the church in a sermonic talk to abide by the tracing of their own church and make a brotherly agreement. When this agreement could not be rendered dissues, Dickerson and Nice, white and black, for the defense, the decision handed down by Judge asked to be heard in the court. Gortor.

LIZZIES LOOSE Because both Mrs. Lizzie Adams No. 1 and Mrs. Lizzie Adams No. 2 proved to the satisfaction of the court they had been led to the atray by Rev. William Allen Adams, a Washington divine, without his gettin a divorce, both of them will lose him for three years, unless gou behavior she would term in the Middle Positionary. The Rev. Mr. Adams had been called from a revival meeting in Washington on January 11th to straighten out his matrimonial tangle in Part 1 of the "Criminal Court, and after considerable investigation it was found that the reverend had fully qualified himself for membership in the league of marrying pursuers* by having one son in legal wives. Then Judge Stein announced the three-year sentence. Perhaps parson Adams would have still been preaching the word and enjoying the matrimonial bliss with wife No. 2 if he had not made the mistake of "talking about wife No. 1. But he did wife No. 2, something about wife No. 1. She told her friend, and this friend told her friend, and finally it tricked into the car of Mrs. Lizzie No. 1. Then that did settle it. The Rev. Adams met wife No. 1 at Ashbury Park and, and her shortly afterwards in Philadelphia. After using all her women, she testified, he deserved her Dad married Miss Lizzie Holiday. She served seven years. It revealed the hearing that several trips the parson made to "bury supposed sisters and brothers" were really courtship visits in his "shucking" career. For three years, however, he will have an opportunity to live the simple life far from the annoying contact of wives No. 1 and 2. "JUST A FAMILY AFFAIR" When Mrs. Annie Watkins, 1221 Hughes alley and, Branch Smith 1721 Keyser street, had a little love- er failing out they could not agree over the ownership of the coal oil sweep and engaged in a "little family affair" that landed Smith in the hospital, where it took 40 stitches to mend various parts of his anatomy back together. With coal as high and as scarce as it is, Mrs. Watkins would not think of dividing that oil sweep. In the Eastern Police Court she we, fined $25 and Monday morning and held to see whether the doctors could fix Branch Smith together again. BREAKS UP LITTLE WELFARE CLUB Policemen from the Northwestern got suspicious of a little "young men's meeting" (Charles Ware, 325 McCutchall street) was holding in his room every Sunday afternoon and made an investigation Sunday. As a result the "class" together with a whole erap-shooting outfit said "good morning" to His Honor on Monday morning. Sergeant Vance and other officers said that every Sunday War has been holding this supposed young men's club and that there is generally a regular attendance of about 25. While the "meeting" had started all of the members had not arrived when the officers made their appearance. The following members were taken and fined $5 and costs each: Leroy Shepard, 433 W. Monument street; David Harrison, 2227 Drudgill street; French Maynor, 1217 Pennsylvania avenue; James Stevenson, 339 W. Biddle street.

White, Treas. Hundred or So Letters Tell Editor Frederick Doug- lass Medals Were Re- ceived Promptly SECRET OUT NEXT WEEK Medal Winners Must Watch To See What Is Next Thing on the Program Bright, shiny, handsome, genuine bronze medals delighted hundreds of boys and girls who received them as prizes for writing Frederick Doughass stories, last week. Joy reigned supreme as the youngsters fastened them on watchchains or suspended them on ribbons around their necks. As a result beginning Wednesday morning and during this week a hundred letters came into the editor's office telling him how much the little folk appreciated their medals. Deulah Hannister School 110, says she values her medal as the greatest achievement of her life. Eva R. Wgst. Salisbury. Md. wrote she was surprised to receive her "badge." Geraldine Sampson, 1707 McCullah street says "the medal is simply wonderful." Beryce Johnson, School 104, says "if doughouses were living today he would feel very happy to know how anxious children were to harm him, and social women woken up in a second highest number of medals." School 104 received 71 medals and School 112, 72. "It is the best medal I ever had" said John W. Branch of School 100, which by the way is named for Frederick Douglass, but did not do its best in the contest. "I always wanted to have a picture of our greatest Negro" declared Mildred Butler of School 109. Out in the Maryland Penitentiary, one of the medal winners wrote "by honoring great men in this way, they may be dead, but never forgotten." James Edward Davis of the Boys' Southern High School in Philadelphia wrote my name enraged in the space on the back of my medal." Edward Swann, 2052 Watkins street, Philadelphia wrote "Grandmother tells me douglass was a friend of grandfather's before they named Dallas street." Some Children Disappointed nearly leaked out this Of the several hundred medals won't until next week, winners those of the High School girls who read the AF and Argyle Avenue School alone vited to get their penc were disappointed."

Weaver, has been finally settled in the Orphans' Court at Towson. It was valued at about $3,290. Mrs. Mary Edwards was executrix and Chuckle L. Smith, attorney. The estate of the late Hugh M. Eurkett is expected to be settled finally at Towson about March. Jeff. Barnes Had Money To Pay Friend's Fine: Nearly Gets Self In Trouble Southwestern District Police grabbled Wilbert Brown, of Parrish street, and charged him with being full of hooch and disturbing the peace. Jefferson Barnes, a frigid, rushed down to the station, and was on his way back to the cell room when the turkey ate the eggplant. "Hog, where are you going?" "I want to see Wilbert Brown," was the answer. "He is in no condition to be tried this morning, so you will have to come back this afternoon. "I want to give this money to pay his fine." said Barnes. "You keep that money because Brown may be dismissed and may again get filled up on hootch," was the advice. Jeff went out, struck the air, drank something a little stronger than ginger ale and was sitting on a bench at the station house sleeping when Brown was called for trial. "It seems like you ought to be where Brown is," commented Justice Tormollan. "Doggone if I believe so," remarked Jeff as he paid $6.45 for Wilbert. medals over to Mr. John Wheeler who distributed the medals at random. Of course no high school student would desire to wear a medal that he had not earned and belonged to another so Mr. Hawkins has promised to recall the medals and deliver them to the prize winners or return them to the AFRO-AMERICAN. For some unknown reason Principal George Biddle also disappointed the half dozen pupils in his school who had won medals. It is expected that these mistakes will be corrected and the winners, the late, will receive the medals intended for them. Big Secret To Leak Out One of the biggest secrets in the possession of the Douglass Editor nearly leaked out this week, but won't until next week. Boys and girls who read the AFRO are invited to get their pencils sharpened and get ready to --- Well we can't talk about this secret until next week, we'll stop right here. JEWETT Touring $995.00 Roadster $995.00 Coupe $1445.00 Sedan $1465.00 The injunction proceedings brought by the Neighborhood Corporation against Joseph Kimmel, white, and Mr. and Mrs. Matthew Willis reshaping them from moving into the 1200 block of Bolton street, will not be opposed by Mr. Kimmel, he told a reporter for the Arno Wednesday, "I regret very much," said Mr. Kimmel, "the publicity this matter has received. When I bought this property I did not know that there were any restrictions and when sometime ago an agent came to me stating that he could rent it, I gave him permission to do so." This agent finding that colored people already owned property in this block rented it to a colored family. When I found that there were objections I requested the agent to return the deposit that this family had made and request them not to move in. So far as I am concerned the matter is closed." Severe Cold Gripping Entire Nation Nine Out of Ten Affected Doctors Claim Herbs of Life Would Relieve Situation If Druggists Could Supply the People This is the most treacherous time of the year, and people all over the country are suffering from terrible colds, which generally begin with sneezing and a slight cough, then gradually it develops into a violent strangling cough, together with hoarseness, soreness of the chest, and a general aching of the entire body. Many people suffer attacks which later develop into "Flu" and pneumonia through more negligence or because they know too much or care too little, to take the advice of people who know more than they do. Some cities report that nine out of every ten persons are affected and the Doctors claim that some others must be done to accelerate the distribution of Double Strength's IIa of Life among the suffering people so that the increasing death toll is more of a burden. Hospital authorities and doctors are absolutely amazed at the way Double Strength Herbs of Life so quickly acts in cases which seemed almost hopeless. They claim that Double Strength Herbs of Life, it taken in time, will take some of the most serious cases, and a full treatment of six bottles invariably does the work. The most serious case will respond to a full treatment of Double Strength Herbs of Life. On account of the great demand for the medicine, the factory is going night and day to cope with the situation, and the 111-branches of the Company throughout the United States and Canada are doing their utmost to supply their orders as fast as they receive their quota of supply from the Home Office of Company in California. The Baltimore Branch alone distributed 50 car-loads of Herbs of Life last week, and yet was unable to supply several druggists, so if your druggist cannot supply your rest assured that he cannot get it. At this time we wish to call your attention to the fact that many unscrupulous manufacturers are offering to the public a substitute for Double Strength Herbs of Life. Beware of Institution!

Colored Americans When Dr. Bernarda Tinz Suarez of Cuba, writer of many books concerning race question here and abroad, presented to the A.M. Teachers' Meeting Monday he was asked by a member of the meeting: "Why are people in Brazil not in favor of colored people?" "Carveyism" was the answer. Dr. Suresz who does not speak English fluently kindly consented to answer any question that any one desired to ask. He spied the missionaries there were more extensive among the whites and expressed the belief that the coloree protestant would be successful in opening up a missionary post there providing they went with the idea of preaching to white as well as colored. There is no discrimination in Brazil only between the educated and uneducated. Leon Chamman (colored) age 12 years, left his father's home at 1005 Brent street, Tallahassee, Maryland, on January 11, 1923.

WEALTHY DALTIM FARMER SENDS HEAD, PAIR PIGS LIFETIME JOB A SAYS HER CURED BALTIMORE COUNTY ENDS HERBS OF LIFE FOR PIGS. GIVES COOK JOB AT $20 PER WEEK HERBS OF LIFE HRED HIS FLU. WEALTHY DALTIMORE COUNTY FARMER SENDS HERBS OF LIFE HEAD, PAIR PIGS. GIVES COOK LIFETIME JOB AT $20 PER WEEK Wm. M. Ashley, wealthy Baltimore County farmer, whose mune is familiar to nearly every inhabitant of the State on account of the publicity given him last summer when making his Equal Rights speeches, sent Dr. J. C. Delano, founder of Herbs of Life, a part of the finest breed pigs to be found in the country. At the same time he gave his cook a lifetime job at $20.00 per week. Mr. Ashley's own story is as follows: "I was exposed to bad weather conditions and contracted a severe cold, which later developed into a very mean case of Influenza. My doctor had given me up to die, when my cook brought me out a bottle of Herbs-of-Life. After I had taken a few doses, bile came from me as black as any ink that comes from a bottle, and in a few days I was as well as ever. My doctor says that he has never seen a medicine perform the wonders of Herbs-of-Life, and I am quite sure that this medicine will soon be known to every person in the world." NOTE:—Herbs-of-Life is sold by bru the Baltimore Branch Herbs of Pennsylvania avenue, Baltimore, Md Double Strength Herbs of Life, as the market. Reputable dealers will only think of offering cheaper substitutes.

France is in the act of changing a statue representing an American soldier shaking hands with a French soldier because the sculpior, contrary to Ameri- can custom, but in keeping with the custom of France porvrays both figures with hands encased in gloves. Southerners are usually damous for their fine breeding and good manners. If the Mammy Monument is erect- 2G m Washington over the objection of many colored neople. the Daughters of the Confederacy will have violated all Southern traditions. The Indusirial Survey ifthe Baltimore Interracial Conference did nothing else worth while during the past year. its splendid work in giving the city a survey of the industria) situation as it affects Negroes wil] stand as a significant achievement. Whut :s the status of the colored worker in industry in Bahiimore? How many are there? Of what sex are they’ Whai kind of employment can they secure? From what kind are they barred and why? How do they live”, What rental do they pay? How do they educate their children? What kind of citizens do they make? Answers to these and a hundred other questions for which there has been no scientific-answer in ‘the past can be found for the first time in the report of the Con- ferences survey. Steps to better the industrial situation of the coloyed worker in the city have heretofore been steps in the dark. For the first time there is light and for i: the Interracial Conference deserves the heartiest congratulations, i " We're Used to Fichtine Speaking at the dedication of the Government's new $2.000.000 hospital for War Veterans at Tuskegee last week, Vice-President Coolidge recalled the fact thai 400,000 Negroes took part in the world war and 57 re- ceived U.S. decorations while hundreds received French Decorations. i ought 16 be noted for the Vice-President’s benefit that the American Negro is used to fighting for his coun- wy. Negroes fought in the French and Indisn Wars helped Washington lick the British in the Revolution and again in 1812 rallied to the flag. In the war agains! Mexico. Spain, and the Confederacy, thousands answered the call of Uncle Sam. To go back 8200 years, the immense treasures and war maierisls recovered from the tomb of Tutankhamen just week in Egypt is a gentle reminder that a black king and his black bors were fighting before there were many white folks worth fighting against. ‘The House of Correction Like Banguo’s ghost that will not down, complaints aguinsi the system of committing boys to Cheltenham and their treatment while there form a regular part of the news of the day. More recently it was left to a Judge of the Criminal Court to fiay the procedure by which it is possible to com- mit a boy to Cheltenham until he is 21 years of age for some slight offense, while a man who committed the same ofiznse would draw a sentence of 60 or 90 days in the House of Correction. It is pointed out in this connection that it is possible to commit white boys to similar insti- iutions in the State for as short a period as desirable. and that the Federal Courts also commit colored boys to Cheltenham for short periods. Only the State courts ¢annoi impose the short sentence. As to treatment of prisoners at Cheltenham, the poor food. the hard work. the lack of any useful educational system and the convict plan of leasing boys to work on adioining farms for long hours. forms a most disgraceful chapter in the history of the State. Two colored members are on the Board of Managers of Cheltenham. No part of the criticism appears to have touched them sufficiently to make a public statement.

Protected By The Kelly Newspaper Feature Service BY AUREY BOWSER SYNOPSIS—NELSON Holmes, a light-complexioned Nitro, was born and reared in California. At the age of twenty-two, he left his home town and came to New York. Beginning as office boy, by attentive work and study, he became sales-manager of the Llama Coffee Company. To friends, associates and employers, Holmes was believed to be white. Arriving home from his Wall street office one night, he saw a beautiful young colored girl being pursued by three drunken Southern white soldiers and protects her against their Impersistent insults. Holmes offers to accompany the girl to the subway, but she refuses. "Shall I ever-ever see you again?" he says. But the girl was gone and Holmes felt a longing for the girl and his race. One more moment and he would have confessed to her that he was a Negro. Two weeks later the president of the Llama Coffee Company raised Holmes' salary from ten to twelve thousand dollars. *CHAPTER TEN When Holmes had finished his story Jerome sat looking at him in wonder, as if he were looking into a new world. His face was like that of a boy who reads the Arabian Nights tales to the first time. Neither he nor Nelson spoke for a long white. Holmes was too tired. The excitement of his descent to Elminor and his confession, coming after his hindrance, was nervously exhausted. And Jerome was too thunderstruck for his reasoning powers to operate. They sat silent in the dimness of trees, hardly aware of the approaching twilight. Finally Jerome broke the silence. "You said you would surprise me and you've done it. But what are you going to do?" "Mary Elminor, if she'll let me." "If she'll let you." "Yes if she won't. I'll go on so we are going for the past ten years. I'll have to expend the incentive to turn colored again." "Yes," said Jerome, slowly. "I see." Elinor was Jerome's sister and he loved her dearly; but the idea of giving up a career like that which they open to Holmes for the sake of a woman, however fine of him at almost selfish, but to bring him into Holmes himself and refused to pass for white; but Holmes' case was different. Holmes had already done it for ten years; besides, Holmes had no relatives or other ties to bind him to his race. "Of course," he said, "you've thought it all out... the consequences and all that. And you're doing it with your eyes open. You must know, as everyone else in the coffee business knows, that you're one of the coming big men in the business. I think you can be the biggest. You are half the Diana Company now: Homeway said she only yesterday. It would be better than to come back your people, but it would be a terrible sacrifice." "Ahabut what reward," Elinor" said Holmes rapturously. "So you and Elinor are going to be married." Well, a girl "I wouldn't put it quite so boldly as that. You see she hasn't accepted me." "No!" said Jerome teasingly. "It looked mighty like it when I came upon you this afternoon." "Not not all all," said Holmes, who like all of us in such matters, stubbornly resisted the words that he was only to eager to hear. "I she seemed so eager. I was only to tell her I did not tell her the story I told you, and you will admit that it was surprising. And before she had time to digest it I told her I loved her and wanted to marry her." "Quite a mouthful for one afternoon," laughed Jerome. "But why did she run away when you stared at her? Oh, you must allow for a woman's modesty," said Holmes, as earnestly as a school boy. "You never had much experience with women, did you? No." Well, if wouldn't do any good if you had. When a man really falls in love, he throws the asses of experience to the wicks. "Do you speak with authority, Jerome?" asked Holmes, slimy, "ing left himself open to Jerome, teasing he thought he was, do some teasing himself." "No, Jesome, "from obsession." "Well, said Holmes, "I won't make you tell any more lies. It's getting dark. Let's go to dinner somewhere in Harlem." "Certainly," said Jerome with a laugh, "we have a good dinner at the house, to-night." yam potatoes, cozy gravy, porter-house, honey, filthy. "No, no," said Holmes, "was why, she might think I was intruding upon her." "Oh, what the demei? You have not done anything worse than fall in love with her and offer to throw away a big Wall Street bank, take it. But I suppose that constituting an offence in the abnormal mind of a lover." "No, Jerome. I can't do it honestly." "Oh, you've got cold feet, liver's feet. I suppose I've been talking too freely for a subordinate, addressing his boss, but I can help, who wants to be my brother-in-law." "Oh, that's all right. Jerome. For that matter, I want to be your brother-in-law almost as much as I want to be Elinor's husband." "You know that is the great regret of my life. I never had a wife. What nails we could have been." "I never had one either," said Jerome, grasping his arm in sympathy. "but If Elinor comes around will have one, a coorker." Thanked, old boy, said Holmes. that is, have you any reason to believe she'll... she'll..." "Make her," said Jerome, as if it were the most feasible thing in the world. "I'll try," said Holmes, sighing. "But really, I don't think it's best for me to show up at the house tonight. I want her to have time to think it over." "She's had as much time as you've had." "I can't go to the house until she asks me. That's flat." "Well, use any strategy you like, but get her." They had risen from the bench and were walking slowly to the exit of the park. When they came out upon Cathedral Parkway, Jerome, struck by a sudden thought, turned to Holmes. "See here," he said. "If she decides to take you, for better or worse, what shall you do about your job?" "Give it up," said Holmes. "I couldn't hold it anyhow after that." "But what other business shall you go into?" "Ive thought that over too. I'll stay in the coffee business." "But how?" asked Jerome so solicitously. "As senior member of the firm of Holmes and Francis, I'll teach you what I know and we'll buck the proposition together." "Well of all..." began Jerome his eyes nearly popping out of his head. "Sure," said Holmes. "I have a good bank account and I know the game from A to Z. We can go in for the colored trade. Here, or you will have a hundred thousand colored people. And there are Philadelphia Baltimore and Washington to say nothing of the millions all through the country." "Pooh! America is full of bright young colored fellows, just waiting for a chance like that." "By George?" said Jerome with a long breath. "By George?" "You're not afraid of it, are you?" "Afraid. I'm only afraid best Elinor refuse to muggle you and thus cut off the prospect. But she won't refuse." "How do you know?" asked Holmes eagerly. "Oh. I know Ellison. But you've got to play a strong hand." he took a talk of coffee and Ellison the two of him bake each other good-night and went their respective ways. The next morning Nelson Holmes attacked his work with the enthusiasm of a football player, going after a juicy piece of speech. He felt younger and more old-deadening weight had been lined up. Never before I had realized what a load his secret was, how it had cramped his heart and frozen out his stream of life. About the middle of the afternoon President Weathering sent for him. Holmes had noticed the load for the last week cycling him sensibly, and been curious to know what was in his mind. "Holmes,' said the president when he entered the office 'take a seat. Want to talk to you.' he said as Holmes sat down, "Yes, sir, the banker, you mean." "Yes, sir, the banker, you mean." "Yes. Paid you a high compliment the other day. Said you'd make a fine banker. Ever think of it?" "No, sir. I expect to be a coffee man as long as I live. I don't want any other business." "Humph!" grinned the old lion-head, his glowing with a fever. I knew it. Coffee into your blood, same as it has into mine. I've been in coffee for fifty years. And I can't even drink it. Doctor won't bet me. Ain't that the irony of fate?" "It is sir," said Holmes, smiling. "And I've heard that Christopher Candle, the tobacco King, is not allowed a single smoke by his doctor. And it seems to me I've heard of some great brewer who could not be a funny life, funny life." said Mr. Weathering musingly, then without the least warning he shot a question at the unsuspecting Holmes. "How'd you like to be first vice-president of the Llama?" "Why... why... why?" "Why... why... why?" mocked Weathering, mistaking Hollowe's look for one of surprised gratification. "Think we are going to let you be sales-manager all your life. You haven't been working your head off for years just to be sales manager, not a man of your ability. Why don't you believe a man in the world who knows more about coffee than you. Before many years you'll be right in the coffee saddle if you keep on as you're going now. Know what first attracted my attention about you." "I'd like to know," sir," said Holmes, who wanted "time for summoning all his forges to meet the crisis which had come upon him so suddenly. He had expectant have time to think out his plans to make a confession to President Washington. Also, he was awaiting Elinor's word which was to decide his future. And here he was, not knowing what she would do to equippee to make up his mind instantly. "You know, Holmes, in regard to coffee I'm the same as you are. It's more than a business to me more than a matter of dollars and invoices and car goes. It is romance sentiment, life. That's why I've taken such interest in thehirting business. To me, there's something like a wait coming here for a job. even if it's only an of the hoe's place. To me he is ad acquiring upon the most interesting field of business on earth, whether he think so or not. So I watch him. As you know, I am where I can see him and he can see me. Now when you suckered in here one day in years ago, well-dressed and intoxicated, I being pleased. I happened to have corp. a salesman though you had corp. THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1923 clerk's job at the least. The manager thought so, too, for he looked you over and said, to save time and yours, that we already had more than enough salemen. You asked him about a clerk's job, he said we had a clerk's job. Then he asked him if he'd take a messenger or an office boy. Of course you didn't look like a man for that sort of work, so he asked you sarcastically if you really wanted to be an office boy. And you said: "No, sir, but I want to be a coffee man and the office boy' job seems to be the only way. I can break in around here." Of course that made him sit up and take notice, and when he asked you how much he messenger you said: I have enough saved to live on for six months. I don't care about the wages; I want to be a coffee man. So he hired you as a messenger. If he hadn't I'd have fired him. Any man who wanted to get into the business that badly certainly had the makings of a real coffee man. By heck I've told that story at bampets; I told it to Jim Thackens the other day." "I didn't know" was so famous," said Holmes, still in a daze. "We'll you are, but you've been so busy shaving for the Llama that you never noticed it. From the very first I've watched your progress with the greatest satisfaction. I know all about your trips to the libraries and your night school courses. You haven't had the recognition you deserved; last year I tried to work you in as an assistant, but the other directors... well, you know how such things are. We can sell them do what we want when we want. But it's come at last, and now you're first vice-president of the Llama." "Yes?" All right. With a look of surprise the president waved away the stenographer. Mr. Weatherbing: "Said Hobbes in that sounded strange himself, as if it came from somewhere outside of his being, "Mr Weatherbing. I cannot take it." You...you cannot take it. So you "Man alive, Holmes! What's come over you?" "Mr. Weathering," said Holmes speech now coming more easily to him. If I were only a salesman rather so much, but as vice-president, he drawn more or less into society. "What of that? After all these years of shaving a little society wouldn't hurt you. A good-looking like you would make a bit with the women, too." "My wife wouldn't." "She is the president. So that's it, but I thought you were a bachelor, married to nothing but the Llama Company." "I'm going to marry something else; that is, if she'll have me." "Well, I wish you luck, my boy, but I don't see how it would keep you out of a vice-president." The young lady is good enough she ought to be good enough for any society I've ever seen." "Mr. Weathering, I am trying to marry a colored woman." The president spearheaded speechless at Holmes. A full minute passed before he spoke. Holmes, he said, struck by a sudden realization: "You go up in the Airbnbacks for the hunting season and forget coffee for a month." "I don't understand, sir." "Very few men do," said the president gently, "until it is too late. Either camp life or a good cure is what you need. I got that way once about thirty years ago." "Wanted to marry a colored girl?" "Jumping Johnhaphat, not! But like you I had worked myself to a frazzle; my nerves were all jampy. I began saying funny things and seeing funny things and seeing funny things. A sluggly little dog seated me nearly to death because I took it for a lion." "This girl is no hallucination, sir; she's all flesh and blood. I've really lived since I met her; before that I was a brain and a will. Now I am a soul. I have all my senses about me sir, I entreat you to believe me. I meant to tell you another time, but this unexpected promotion has forced the issue. If you could know her as I do you would understand how I can love her." "I don't doubt that she's a fine woman," said the president, now convinced that Holmes was telling the truth, "the enough for any man to fall in love with. And I don't need to help her, the wrong people, who lived seventy years, Holmes, in America, I have seen too much to be calling you names. But you know as well as I that your wish is suicidal." Mr. Weathering, you have been good to me all these years, and I have been good to you. But all the time I've lived a life, said Holmes, tormented by his own words. "Mr. Weathering, as God lives, I am a Negro." LIBERTYTOWN LIBERTYTOWN, M.D. Feb. 22 —Mr. Joseph Thomas who has been quite ill is much improved. Rev. J. W.

Dr. Abram Simons Tells Interracial Conference They are Models for Other Cities Report Shows That Half of City's Colored Workers Are In Domestic Service Half of the colored men and women workers in Baltimore are engaged in domestic service was the start of the statement of Charles S. Johnson on his survey of industrial conditions at the annual session of the Interracial Conference held at Friends' Meeting June three days last week. Mr. Johnson, who is connected with the National Urban League came to Baltimore recently under the auspices of the Conference and for three months was engaged in making a survey of the conditions under which colored men and women are employed. Dr. Bredasch Mitchell, head of the Industrial Commission of the conference is making an effort to have the entire population of some 45,000 words, published. MANY WOMEN WORKERS AMAN Among the striking statements of Mr. Johnson were; that women form an unusually large part of the colored workers in the city; colored workers pay on an average of 17 per cent more rental than white workers; comparatively few of the colored workers are members of unions; skilled occupations are practically closed to colored workers; that many industrial firms refuse to employ colored others only as janitors and scrub workers; and in factories colored workers are not permitted to work on white goods which bears more than colored goods. As a border city, said Mr. Johnson, Baltimore restricts opportunities for colored workers more than the North where the racial antagonism is less and the South where the many skilled occupations are open to colored workers as well as white. This city he said, has more than the usual number of native whites willing to work in mental competitions, and a large floating labor population. BAPH SIMONS SPEAKS Rabbi Simons, president of the Washington School Board, and Dr. James H. Dillard, president of the Jeannes and Sater Fuchs, which aid colored rural schools in the South, were the speaker at the Sunday afternoon meeting. Simons designed that the D.C. school system which under the big tag must always have three colored members out of the nine on the School Board, a colored assistant superintendent with the same authority over colored schools as the white superintendent has over white schools, equal school facilities standards and teachers salaries, is a model for other cities. The race problem cannot be solved by education or blood tests but by some such cooperative service as is demonstrated in the D.C. school system. The biggest task the Negro has is to convince the white man to understand him then worth and service. We will always have to put moral fiber in a people and not rein them. Because of the white man's stain sense of racial superiority, he finds it hard to understand the colored man. Let us stop emphasizing the differences between the races, the things upon which we disagree, and emphasize the things upon which we do agree. DE DILLARD SPEAKS Dr. Bihlard declared that he did not desire to point too hopeful a picture of the South, but statistics showed that education is spreading, and where the colored schools are poor, the white schools are poor. He cited the economic progress of the past 40 years, declared that we are going to go of things in the South is good will between the races." Nine interpersonal conferences in Southern cities testify, he declared, to the increasing number of white Southeners speaking out for fair play. SUGGESTS A NEGRO BONDING COMPANY A bonding company financed by face capital is suggested by L. Elsworth Wright. "I went to the Fidelity Bonding Co. for a $2,600 bond in the Orpheus Court the other day. I was there they did not go on on my behalf and they found them do outside of Baltimore. The company bonds local colored postal employers. The refusal made me get a bondman who had to put up $4,000 in property." A cantata entitled, "Tree of Life and Heavenly Vision," dramatized by Mrs. Elizabeth Ward, was rendered Sunday night at John Wesley M. E. Church before a large gathering. Participants included Mrs. Sadie Hall, Mrs. Rachel Tucker, Medesames Lucy Allsup, Ella Wilson, Emma Gross, Mabel Johnson, Julia Wheeler, Andrey Murr, Sarah Boyer, Mary Ross, Eliza Butler, Gussie Bias, Emily Brown, Louisa Franklin, Louisa Miller, Pauline Adams, Gertrude Brown, Pearl Brown, Ella Rock; Misses Ruth Brown, Cornell House, Myrtle Imes, Cynthia Macer, Dorothy Woodland, Francis Maker, Margaret Miller, Madaline Bolley, Lillian Pemelton, Sarah Wesley, M.

WOMEN CANNOT DO TWO THINGS WELL Howard University's Dean Of Women Talks Of Modern Problems At CIVIC LEAGUE Girls and boys of today are no worse than girls and boys of other generations. Lucy Slowe, dean of Women at Howard University told the cooperative Civic League at its annual luncheon at the Royal Palace Saturday afternoon. If the children of today seem to be going on different paths, Miss Slowe said, it is because they lack the same kind of parent care that older children received. No man attempts to run a house and a business at the same time, but many women are endearing to perform the duties of a mother while going out to work, in order to increase the family income. A career and at the same time per side over a household where there are children, Miss Slowe said. Over 125 women attended the luncheon and were seated around pretty arranged tables in the hotel dining room. Other speakers included Mrs. E. Pearl Bailey, Miss Elsie Mountain, Dr. Sara Brown of Washington and Mrs. Hazel McBeth and Mrs. Masha Maxwell, Miss Mountain suggested the need of a social survey of the city to bring to the attention of Christian people how woefully lacking Baltimore is in the development of a progress adaptable to modern conditions. Mrs. Sarah Fernandis is president of the league. The luncheon was arranged by a committee of which Mrs. Ida Hilton is chairman. Among the visitors were Mrs. Thomas Turner of Washington and Mrs. W. B. Fletcher and a committee of eleven from Annapolis. K. OF P. HOLDS FIRST PROGRESS PAGEANT Nearly 10,000 People Attended Six-Day Exhibition at Fourth Regim't Armory Last Week The Uniform Department of the Knights of Lythias held their first 6-day Industrial Exposition and of Progress at the Fourth Regiment Armory last week. The object of the exposition was raising funds to defray expenses to the grand encampment to be held in New York this year and those who conducted the affair are highly pleased with the results. During the week, the attendance was estimated around 10,000, despite the fact that the weather on Monday and Tuesday kept the crowd far below what it might be on otherwise. Thursday and Saturday were the banner days, the hall being jammed from early afternoon until the closing hour at night. Mayor Proceeding dropped in Saturday night and made a brief address after being introduced by Grand Chancellor George A. Watty. While the affair was in the nature of an exhibition, there were only a few booths where there was an actual demonstration of handicraft or domestic science, chief among which were the Jones Bakery, and a millinery and fancy work display by Mrs. Hilba Evan Hayes. There were however many games of chance in competition, the games being sold by most of these Were operated by white men. Entertainments of a vaudeville nature were given each evening and proved, highly attractive. There was also dancing where ever space would permit to the strains of a jazz band. Grand Chinacollor Watty expressed himself as highly pleased with the affair, which he characterized as a success in every way. Beside Mr. Wainty, the affair was conducted under the direct supervision of George W. Smith promoter; General George Carter chairman of the executive Committee; Cand. Jno. I. Taylor, Col William A. Grayson', secretary Rosa J. Richardson Grand Worthy Counselor and other leading members of the Order.

WILKINS District Secretary Family Welfare Association 2242 Penna Ave. Man Offered Alibi With Sweeping Denial of Having Hired FURTHER ACTION LIKELY Mother of the Girl May Bring Action in Civil Court MAIN POINTS IN TESTIMONY: 1 Dr. W. H. Neville stated that Josephine had suffered from violent treatment followed by infection. Condition leaves no doubt but that crime was committed by someone. 2 Although Creech denied having hired the girl or of having ever seen her, she gave a perfect description of the Creech apartment, and brought her mother there after the latter's discovery of daughter's condition. 3 Detective Mack Cromley testified that at the hearing at the western Creech controlled himself as to where he was on the day of crime. 4 Josephine stuck firmly to her story, branding Creech as the man who assaulted her on December 27. 5 Creech presented alibi stating that he attended motion picture show on morning of alleged assault. Admitted not being at work and that wife was not home on that day. Willard Creech, white, 312 N. Carrey street, who went on trial Thursday of last week for an alleged assault on 13-year-old Josephine Williams, 17 N. Stockton street, while she was in his employ on December 27th, acquitted by a jury after less than 14 minutes deliberation Friday in Part I of the Criminal Court. The verdict followed a trial hearing the greater part of two days, and after counsel on both sides had argued the case for two hours. Following the testimony of the wounded girl giving the details of the crime in which she stated that on the morning of December 27th, while working in the Czech borough he throw her on a cot and assaulted her after he had locked the doors of the house. The testimony had made a sweeping冠 of the girls allegations, stating that he attended a picture show on that morning. Officer Mark Brønny took the stand. Brønny was the officer who arrested Creech, and testified as to Creech's statement at the hearing at the southwestern Police Station. An argument in that court Officer Brønny said, "the Magistrate questioned Creech as to his whereabouts on the morning of the 27th. Creech first stated that he was working that morning at Barlet and Haywards." Magistrate: "Go call up Barbart and Hayward." Creech (interrupting) "No, I made a mistake. I was not working on that morning." Officer Croumley also testified that when he arrested Creech, the cut on white hair of the accused assault was said to have been committed by Josephine was covered with a dark army blanket. Josephine had testified that this covering on this cut was black, but both Mr. and Mrs. Creech had stated that the cut in their kitchen was covered with a white sheet. The case was then closed with argument by Deputy State's Attorney Cox, who had presented the case with unusual vigor, and Attorney McKindness, representing the accused, who shortly after I obstructed Friday, in less than fifteen minutes they rendered a verdict for the defendant. Creech. MAY CONTINUE COURT. ACTION Following the announcement of the verdict, Mrs. Anna Williams made a statement to an Iraq reporter in New York on Tuesday to carry the case further. "I know that Creech came to my house and hired my little girl, and cating that his wife wanted her to do some work for her, I know she womens to his house, and I know that she was brutally abused. If there is a mistake in what she did, matter I intend to do it. I would rather die than know that my daughter had suffered what she has without me doing the last thing I can bring the man who did it to account." Officials of the N. A. A. C. P. are interested in the matter, and from Willis, Willis sat the case may be re-opened in a damage said. The question as to whether Josephine Williams was assaulted was not denied. She still shows the crippling effects of her mistreatment. Prominent physicians who examined the girl confirmed the statement that there was no mistake that the child had been inflicted with? She said William Creech did it when she went to his home to work for his wife. He denies. Who did it?

That Negro labor in Baltimore may figure in one of the biggest labor conflicts ever staged in this section and as a result several labor union crafts may be thrown open to Negroes that have hitherto in some way barred their doors to them has just come to light in the announcement of the American Federation of Labor through its chief Samuel Gompers that an intensive campaign was to begin here to organize every garment worker in the city. Following a speech by Mr. Gompers here Friday night at a banquet of the Garment Workers' organization at the Rennett Hotel local labor chiefs made known the plan to concentrate on the organization of Baltimore. Will Effect Needle Trades While the immediate local campaign will center primarily around the needle trades, it is a part of the general plan on the part of unions to sow up Baltimore completely and make it as near 100 per cent organized as possible. Since Baltimore, being a gateway to the South through which large numbers of non-union laborists to break the effectiveness of unionism during labor troubles, it is necessary to unionize all workers in this territory as a medical line of defense. Colored building trades unions will likely come into the fight if it is brought to open warfare by a refusal on the part of the employers to meet the demand of the unions. New Wage Demands Made Nearly two hundred Negro laborers and seven hundred trainees belong to this division and have recently agreed upon a joint contract which has been sent to the employers for consideration. In this contract which proposes a basic 50 con hour wage and an eight hour day is turned down a strike including all of the building craft unions will take place, it is said. May Open Door To Negro In the impounding fight in the needle trades Negro labor will probably have a chance to earn this field of employment, that has been partially closed to them. Hecco one in some manner Negro workers in the needle trades have been limited in certain groups of work which restricted their earning capacity far below white members of the craft. As a rule even on the piece work system conditions have served to make the pay envelope of the colored Workers more than that of their white comrades. Whether the labor unions or the employers have been responsible for this has been hard to learn, but the facts have been uniform in all the plans of the city. If the fight comes to a strike it is practically certain that employers will make an effort to secure large numbers of Negroes from the local field as well as from migration from the south with which to fight in the war. A condition similar to the recent railroad strike in which Negroes were used largely as strike-breakers will obtain. Question Of Strike Breakers The question for Negro labor to answer is will they become a buffer in this fight or will they seew either the employees or the unions up in a long time contract that, will not leave them out in the cold when the fight is over. Negroes placed out of distinctions during the railroad strike but they had to pour back as soon as the strike was settled. They are reported on good authority that the employers are already making extensive plans to replace striking garment workers with Negro labor if the strike comes while on the other hand organized labor is making plans to counter by including Negro workers more largely in the needle trades. In view of the unorganized conditions of the Negroes it may be possible that large numbers of colored women will accept jobs in these trades if good wages are offered. This will be the joint of Liberals attitude in the past, which has neglected the colored group. There are thousands of young men and women throughout the South with efficient training in these trades to fill the gaps if they are needed. The only alternative will possibly be a complete inclusion in all of the unions. Need Race Guidance The importance of what may ultimately grow out of the present situation makes it apparent that some sort of organized guidance for colored workers is needed in the matter. If individuals are left to decide for themselves it is evident that they will continue to serve as a buffer between labor and capital and in the end not only incur the ill will of the unions but make no permanent gains with capital. If they strike as a group in case of this, it was pointed out, they could either make the unions take them in unreservedly and on equal terms or they could strike bargains on a contact basis with the employers. This matter, it is said, should interest ministers of the gospel, business and professional men and other Negro leaders. EXCHANGE TO BANQUET The annual banquet of the Colored Business Men's Exchange, which will be held at the Y. M. C. A next Tuesday evening, promises to offer time ladies will be present. An excellent menu has been provided by Caterer L. Logan Jenkins. Addresses urging better support for the business and professional needs of the class, and credited by a number of speakers. Samuel L.

Rector's Stand on "Mammies" "Monument Is Severely Arraigned At Doughlass Day Dinner Saturday Speaker Lauds Afro's Douglass Medals; Gough McDaniels Heads City Club "K. Frederick Douglass were alive today, we could be sure of two things. He would shake the Republican party for its failure to defend health and be stunned the country against the erection of any monument in Washington in honor of the South's black "mammies" by the Daughters of the Confederacy. These were the opening remarks of W. Ashbie Hawkins at the Douglass Day Dinner held at the Royal Palace Saturday night and attended with hearty applause by the 125 business and professional men present. Altho he did not call his name, the letter of Rev. Dr. George F. Bragg in a white daily favoring the "Mummies" Monument was criticized by Mr. Hawkins as tracking to the sentiment of the South and not representative of the majority sentiment of a thoultful colored people in the city. Tributes to Frederick Douglass the great Marylander, as an orator, editor, abolitionist and statesman were voiced by Carrington Davis, Joshua Maxwell, Mason Hawkins, and Charles S. Johnson of the New York Urban League, "Harry T. Pearl declared that one way to keep alive the memory of Douglass aside from the annual dinners was the Afro's plan of giving away brownie cookies for the best stories of the day." Superior Frank Russell made an ingreed appeal for the Douglass spirit in the public life of today. Dr. Harry Metcald presided as treasurer. Gough McDaniels, chairman of the dinner committee was elected president of the reorganized Bang-less City Club. THE FIRST SHIPMENT OF Real ALAGA Cane Syrup ALAGA SYRUP The first shipment of Real ALAGA Cane Syrup has just reached Baltimore, right from where the Sugar Cane grows. It is going fast to make "Real Joy" with Hot Cakes and Hot Biscuits for those who know its quality. Persons from Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and Alabama especially prefer over other syrups, and can tell it over the "goodness" of Real ALAGA Cane Syrup. Then too for fancy baking and candy making it has no equal. ALAGA Cane Syrup is the entire juice of the Sugar Cane plant boiled down to syrup, with nothing added, except a very small portion of corn syrup to prevent sugaring in the can. The quality is therefore near that of maple syrup at only half the price, but with a very different flavor. Ask your grocery for the Real ALAGA Cane Syrup.

"DISCOVERS" BUYING ASSET OF NEGROES Chattanooga Manufacturers' Association Makes Bid for Race Trade At Exhibition During the recent exhibition of the Chattanooga Manufacturers' Association of home manufactured commodities, an effort was made to interest the colored citizens by setting aside a day for them to visit the exhibit. The teachers, professional and business men were prevailed upon to interest themselves in the matter, with the result that more then 4,000 colored people passed thru the doors. So well pleased were the promoters with the merchandising possibilities among these people that Mr. Rothnell, one of the manufacturers said "We have been overlooking an important asset" and another assured the Associated Negro Press that never again would this big market be overlooked. The news that the immense potential, market that exists among Negroes for every form of industrial product and for most of the luxuries, has been receiving favorable consideration from those concerned is indeed, gratifying. We take haste to advise them that the Negro fairs of the country offer the most favorable possible channel for reaching these buyers in a manner that will encourage us to take the logical place to begin a program of activities that will help the colored visitor to keep abreast of the progress of manufacturing; where the manufacturer may most quickly translate his demonstration into cash returns; and where the seed for more satisfactory relations between the races may be sown to the ultimate good of all concerned. ABERDEEN Aberdeen, Md. Feb. 22—Union M. E. Church held their first annual banquet on Monday February 12th with over 250 persons in attendance.

We are advised that after about three weeks seasoning on the road, it will be presented on Broadway. We are authoritatively informed that the attraction has cost to date fifty thousand dollars. We back the houses on the road the seasoning process is costing about three thousand dollars each week. This should insure a cooking good show when it reaches New York.

A survey of the pupils in the 7th and 8th grades of the colored elementary schools and of the 9th grade in the Colored High School shows that there are in the city 1,973 pupils who under the present system should be in a Junior High School. Leaving the 7th and 8th grades out of account there are at present a sufficient number of pupils on roll in the Colored High School to overcrowd the new high school building even before work has been started. John Suyer Survey estimated that the enrollment of the Colored High School would be 1500 in 1930. Already it is beyond the 1,500 mark and growing rapidly every year. The number of pupils in the 7th, 8th and 9th grades eligible for junior high schools by schools is as follows: Colored High School..... 624 School 101..... 202 School 103..... 81 School 106..... 180 School 108..... 20 School 109..... 48 School 110..... 172 School 112..... 200 School 113..... 80 School 115..... 50 School 116..... 205 These figures while not official represent a fairly accurate summary of pupils eligible for junior high school work, and who are not now in, any junior high school. Among the whites the junior high school system has been in for two or three years. A number of colored students have passed the examination for junior high school and are on the eligible list when such a school is started. In some of the schools a departmental system is used as a substitute for the junior high school. Teachers Pass Exams The School Board reports the following on the eligible list for teachers in the Pattimore public schools: Misses Martha F. Brown, Anna B. Hooper, Mary E. Johnson, Katherine N. Connor, Myrtle V. USE YOUR CHARGE ACCOUNT USE YOUR CHARGE ACCOUNT CONVENIENT GREDIT is yours for the asking.
