Maryland's Junior Senator Advocates Uniform Anti-Lynch Laws For All States MINISTER GETS THIRTY DAYS Mob Lynches Farm Hand Who Wanted To Go North RATAPSCO RISES OVER TOPS OF HOUSES Says Masked And Secret Society Has No True Message For The U. S. People TALKS OF TUSKEGEE Veterans' Hospital Should Be Manned By Colored Doctors And Nurses. SENATOR BRUCE'S VIEWS AT A GLANCE 1. The Dyer Bill will not stop lynching any more than the Eighteenth Amendment will stop whiskey drinking. Laws depend upon public sentiment for their enforcement. I am in favor of each State passing an anti-lynching bill punishing mots and officials engaged in lynchings and granting damages in money to the family of the victim. 2. Taskegee Hospital should be manned by colored doctors and nurses. If I were a white nurse or doctor and were sent to Taskegee Hospital, I wouldn't serve. 3. The Ku Klux Klan is a meme to American sovereignty and should be wiped from the face of the earth. The sooner they are destroyed, the better it will be for the nation. I am going to fight against them with the same fervor that I am going to fight against the lynching mob. The strongest statement on the question of race relationship ever uttered by a Maryland U. S. Senator was that given out by W. Cabell Bruce, Maryland's junior senator, elected on the Democratic ticket recently. In it Senator Bruce thundered against lynching, the Ku Klux Klan and the effort being made to place a white personnel over the colored soldier's hospital at Tuskegee. The Senator takes his seat for the first time in the next Congress. Not only is Senator Bruce passionately interested in the questions he discussed, but he is stating these views through correspondence to his colleagues in the South, Dr. R. R. Moton, of Tuskegee, and in an article on the same question soon to appear in Hearst's International Magazine. R. R. Moton said: No Appeal to Negroes "When I was a candidate for the Senate last Fall, I made no special appeal to the Negro voter; nor did I concern myself about refuting any accusation that I was unfairly to the Negro; but, after I had been elected, I stated that any Negro voter who had voted for me would never have any reasonable cause to regret his vote. This statement I now repeat. "As a member of the Senate, I propose, so far as it shall lie in my power, to see that the Negro receives fair and just treatment in every respect. To influence, if I had a voice in the matter, I should only insist that the National Hospital, recently established by the Government at Tuskegee for the care of Negro veterans, should be under the charge of Negro physicians and nurses; assuming, as I have no reason to doubt, that the Negro race could furnish competent persons for the places; and I should insist upon my point all the more strongly now that such an irresponsible and dangerous order as the Klu Klux Klan has endeavored to terrorize Dr. Moton, the head of Tuskegee and his associates. He is the legitimate desire of the educated colored男男 or nurse to occupy the highest place in the scale of human ambition than that of a confined hand to be gratified if he or she is to be shut out not only from hospitals for white patients, but also from hospitals for Negro patients as well? Physician At Tuskegee If I were a white physician or nurse, I would be ashamed to permit myself to be the instrument of such gross injustice. If the principle of carrying along the two races on equal but not converging lines is a sound working one, where could it be better applied than to the situation that has arisen at the Tuskegee Hospital? "It is a significant commentary, indeed, upon the effort of the Ku Klux Klan to control this situation by a bull-dozing demonstration that it should have brought out the fact that one of the Negro teachers at the Institute conducted by Dr. Moton, has won such fame by his extraordinary achieve-chemistry in the defence of dietetic chemistry to be made it is said, a Fellow of the Royal Society of England—an honor that he shares with Benjamin Franklin, and one of the most highly coveted honors that can be bestowed upon a benefactor of the human race. Opposed to Lynching "I shall also avail myself of all the little influence that my office may give me to do whatever I can to bring to an end the savage and abominable practice of lynching a practice that is in any of my communities affects to possess the merest rudiments of civilization; but not by voting as a Senator for the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill; for in my judgment that bill is a palpably, unconstitutional measure (Contributed In Page Two) Entered in the Postoffice at Baltimore, Md., as Second-class Matter under Act of March 3, 1876. 31st YEAR, NUMBER 42 Entered in the Postoffice at Baltimore, Matter under Act of March 3.

Russell found his wife, she was unable to make a statement. Blood-hounds were secured and the trail led to Minnefield's shack, several miles away. Protesting his innocence, the farmhand was carried off to the swamp awaiting the gathering of a large crowd of men who had taken part in the chase. White farmers here say revenge is the motive for Minnefield's act. Early in June, they declare he decided to move North and secure better employment, without consulting Russell to whom he owed a small account. Minnefield got as far as Jackson, where he started as Jackson, where he was arrested at the instigation of his employer and forced to return. Russell, it is declared, stated that he would use every means to keep his farm-hands from going North. PROTEST EXCLUSION FROM ARMY CAMPS PROTEST EXCLUSION FROM ARMY CAMPS Washington, D.

The coming of the flood was first noticed about midnight Sunday while most of the residents were in their beds. The Patasco, ordinarily a peaceful river, suddenly change into a roaring torrent and rushed down upon the unsuspecting village, washing away everything movable, and within the short space of twenty minutes, water covered the fields and was pouring through the lower stories of the little homes. Panic-stricken women with their small children in arms screamed for aid, from the upper stories of their homes, while the more fortunate residents held calmly attempted to construct rafts from planks found lying about unfinished hungalows. Frank Brown, and Bo Thomas "white", whose homes are built on a higher elevation attempted to reach some of the terror-stricken women and children by wading but found this impossible owing to the depth of the water, and it was not until three policemen of the Southern Police District appeared upon the scene with a boat that the marooned families were rescued and taken into the homes of neighbors and from the scene. Mrs. William Keys was at the time in bed and it was necessary that she be carried into the boat and taken to the home of a friend. The flood did not subside until 11:30 Tuesday morning, and it was estimated that the loss of property is very small, the entire damage not exceeding over $1,000. All the live stock in the country, the dredges of the rivers, are drowned. To a hard in the immediate vicinity is a seen of deep mud and slush, mud covers the corn fields and the floors of the homes are also covered with dirt and clay. Fortunately, through the excellent work of the police and some of the residents here were no casualties. A number of the residents were seen calmly standing along the banks of the once more peaceful Patapsco Park, one elderly owner laughing and worked "We are going to change the name of this place from Patapsco Park to Flood Hollow." The homes of ten of the fifty families almost completely submerged were:—Will Harrison, William Keys, James Robinson, George Morris, Garrison, John G. Gibson, William Wilson, Robert Dowd and William Harrison. As soon as the houses are sufficiently dry for habitation again the people will again take up their former abodes.

The true way to stamp out the iniquity and disgrace of lynching is for a large number of leading men, white and colored, in the Southern States to unite in a written appeal to the Governors of those States to recommend to their several legislatures the passage of some uniform law that, in addition to the penalties, prescribed by the ordinary law of the land for homicide, would impose severe penalties upon all public servants concerned with administrative justice, who pass laws failed to protect, to the full extent of their ability, a victim of lynching; and to have a heavy pecuniary fine, for the benefit of the victim's family, upon the community, in which the lynching occurred, as well. Appeal to Governor That both such an appeal to the Governors of the States in question, and with such recommendations by them such a law would in some illicitous form or other be passed by such legislatures, I do not allow myself to doubt; or I am satisfied that the more generous impulses of the white people of the South towards the Negro need but to be organized and properly guided to make their influence irresistible. At any rate the experiment would be worth trying and, if any State, where lynching has been common, were to decline to commit itself in a truly effective polity of emulating such a hideous abuse, it would deserve to be an object of reproach to every other State in the Union which has gotten beyond the jungle stage of human existence and its more animal just for blood. Virginia A Model In Virginia, to her intimate honor he is said, though a state with a very large Negro population, lynching, by reason of reforms in animal law procedure, and of a firm use of the military arm of the state, has been a fundamental and intellectual progress of the Negro himself, has for all practical purposes been completely rooted out. Against the prescriptive spirit of the Ku Klux Klan also, any influence that I may have will be inflexibly assured. No speaker from beholdin a mask has any true message for such a people as the American people. No matter how honest or patriotic may be the motives by which the dupes of such secret societies are actuated the latter sooner or later, by the inevitable law of their very being, become more seminaries of bigotry and ruffianism. Beginning with professions of Americanism the religious zeal, like the old Know-Nothing party, they invariably end in an odious tyranny accompanied by criminal outrages. WLM.

Colored Workers Supplant Whites Johannesburg, Aug. 2—Ethiopian labor is supplying white labor in South Africa, even at skilled work and the industries formerly barred to them. There is no denying of the Ethiopian's determined invasion of aboriginal workers. For instance, 50 per cent of the industry's workers' Trade Union are Ethiopians; and at Johannesburg there are at present 5,000 unemployed white miners. The doors or white unions are opening as if by magic to the touch of the native workmen who have laid down the ultimatum to white labor of "Open up or Bail out." Natives are now getting into the engineering trade and are admitted into the Annaligmatized Engineering Union. D1ED James Brady died July 26.

Nicholson School of which Alfred W. Nicholson is president, brought together an average daily attendance of nearly two hundred rural preachers, seventy-five colored teachers, and many friends of rural teachers and preachers. About one hundred sixty preachers lived on the Bettis Academy grounds and were excellently cared for by friends living in the community. Dr. James Hardy Dillard, of Charlotteville, Va., president of the Jeanes and Slater boards, rector of William and Mary College, and member of the General Education Board, has been instrumental in shaping the summer of 1919, at Betts Academy a plan for reaching and helping rural colored preachers, who are unquestionably the most powerful leaders among their people. These leaders, however, have been an aid to the work in their spiritual work on account of the general lack of training. The following regular courses were given: "The Background of Christian Preaching," J. E. Gregg; "The Minister's Correspondence," B. C. Caldwell; "Sunday-schools," B. C. Laundon; "The Care of Health," Aery; "The Church and the Neighborhood," Jackson Davis; "Church Business and Records," W. T. B. Williams; and "How to Read the Bible," J. H. Billard. The preachers began the day's work with a six o'clock prayer-meeting. Devotional exercises, with benefit talks by visitors, were held each morning at 11:15, 12:15, 1:15, and 1:15 check there were lecture on subjects of interest and value to preachers and teachers.

PASTOR SCORES BLIND CHRISTIANS The congregation of Grace Presbyterian Church. Doblin street, the old church, a mission Sunday delivered by pastor, Rev. J. T. Colbert. The subject was "Watching the Cross." Key Colbert said: "When the soldiers who crucified Christ were through their work, in ignorance they sat down and watched the cross. In it they saw nothing, divine or saw nothing of the heart-reading sacrifice they saw a simple jungle but nothing of the grace of God that surrounded the cross. "Today too many people sit and watch the cross and see nothing deeper, nothing but a cross. Those same people are guilty of a far greater sin than those ignorant Roman soldiers, who knew noth-obedience to orders from those higher up their masters. "The people who now sit and watch the cross without seeing or caring anything about cross significance are mostly men and women who profess Christianity, but by watching the cross and not taking into consideration what that signifies are worse that the master minds who instigated the crucifixion. At the close of the services three new members were taken into the church. BIBLICAL FACTS OF INTEREST THE AFRO-AMERICAN Dr. H. T. S. Johnson CHRIST'S LAW AND HOW TO KEEP IT "Always carry one another's burdens, and so obey the whole of Christ's Law"—Gal 6:2. The Jews, when Jesus was on earth, were very strict observers of the law of Moses. In fact, they gave so much attention to the observance of the letter of the law that they often lost sight of its significance. Jesus came and made a statement for them to observe about memorizing so much of the law. To love God supremely and one's neighbors as one's self, according to Jesus' teaching, is to keep every requirement of the "law and prophets." Christ, therefore, has only one law and that law is love. His law consisting of the commandments of one word constitutes a rule of conduct that would make useless all law, all courts and all places of punishment. The weak would have no occasion for complaint against the strong; the ignorant against the wise; the poor against the rich; the honest against the dishonest nor the black man against the white man. The Apostle Paul in the text, shows how the love of Christ, a panacea for all lills, may be obtained. "Always carry one another's burdens, and so obey the whole of Christ's law." Obeying the command to "always carry one another's burdens" is the only way to build love. Christ law, into our lives. We value things in proportion as they cost us. The same rule applies with reference to "one another." If mothers love children more than fathers do, it is not because they have greater capacity for loving, but because the children them more pain, because they them more pain, because they never ceases to love the family to which he is giving whole-hearted support. It is only when he does not carry that burden that his affections lodge somewhere else and desertion becomes possible. Woman's independence of man's support has more to do with the prevalence of divorce in this day than anything else. Opportunities for "carrying one another's burdens" are so abundant that no one needs to look for them. Every day, everywhere we can find: 1. The burdened individual. The problem of adjusting one's self to his environment is fraught with many burdens. Sometimes they result in tragedy and sometimes in heroic living. Many a suicide would have been averted if someone by kind word or deed had lived the burden which bore so seriously upon the victim. "Our women burdened with the victim," committed while consoleled sleep; young men with conscience under the embarrassment of financial loss or social disgrace; men and women of all ages and races, wrestling with religious "THE MESSAGE AND THE MESSENGER" Striking Sermon by Rev. D. G. Hill Put In Pamphlet Form "The Message and The Messenger" is the title of a sermon by Rev. Dr. D. G. Hill, that was recently issued by the AFRO-AMERICAN press. The sermon was preached at the recent session of the Baltimore A. M. E. Conference. The ministers unanimously passed a resolution asking that the sermon be put in phamphlet form. In the course of the sermon Dr. "The most important requirement of a Christian minister is not eloquence, nor rhetoric, nor logic, nor erudition, per se. And yet these are very essential; but that which towers far above even the knowledge and control of levers is a consecrated pursuit at par with the practice, followed with a healthy supply of real, I mean genuine, common sense. For the exercise of common sense in religious matters, as in all other of life's intricate phases, is accompanied with the evidence of the presence of the Holy Spirit. In the diction, nor splendid literary attunements can compensate in any degree for the lack of deep-seated plety, consecrated devotion and earnest sympathy in the cause of righteousness. I admire necessary preparation for the work of the ministry, and indeed emphasize its importance great importance with all my heart. "A messenger of God, perchance, maybe somewhat limited in the use of the rules of rhetoric, or he may lack eloquence in speech, he may fail to be a master of letters or he may possess an intuitive ability. If he is blessed with a sound, practical judgment and his a clear knowledge of God's word; if he carries a pure heart in his bosom and a clean life in his soul, don't for Heaven's sake hinder such a God. can use him and may exequidate him to confuse the mighty of this world and awaken drowsy souls that otherwise might die."

"MAMA'S GOT THE BLUES" THE AFRO-AMERICAN SOUTH'S BIGGEST AND BEST WEEKLY BALTIMORE, AUG. 3, 1923 COMPILES LIST OF PLAYS FOR STAGE COMPILES LIST OF PLAYS FOR STAGE Frank Wilson, Promising Autho Has Arranged Group For Amateur And Professional By J. A. Jackson In response to frequent inquiries from schools, dramatic classes, clubs, and even from professional actors for some distinctly colored acts and plays, the Page sought out Frank Wilson who has been from time to time appearing with Mrs. Wolters students in little race dramas. He has made other appearances, several of them professional, and out of his experiences on the stage, and the wealth of his creative genius he has evolved a number of plays that are adaptable for all the purposes these folks could desire. His list includes "Ta Williams' Gal" a one-act playlet requiring three males and two females that he has written especially for Rielchard Harrison; Mr. Harrison tried in a dog in jameson, Long Island recently, and will in all probability present the skit in vaudeville this season. If so it will be restricted. "The Heartbreakers", a twenty-five minute drama in one act requires two men and two women. "Heredity and Environment" a comedy drama of the same length for three males and two females "Confidence" an eighteen minute drama for two men and one woman. REGENT McGarr's Routine Steppers The stage attraction at the Regent this week is Jules McGarr's Routine Steppers, one of the tab shows that appear at the local houses. The chief funmaking is left in the hands of "busty" Fletcher, a youngster who is rapidly coming to the front as a skillful comedian. His style is breezy and he mixes brains with his work. Aside from this, he is one of the cleverest dancers in the business. John Fletcher Fletcher in the funmaking, and also reveals a gift for getting laughs. Both work under cork. Metarr in character and as chief "straight" contributes his well-known ability as one of the best actors in the business. An added attraction that held up the show was Mary Bradford, well-known blackface singing comedian, who although appearing in "straight" this week, made her use of hit with her song offerings, humorous quips and finished off, with her famous blues numbers. The show consists principally of songs and dancing, but was put over with a dash and peep that made a big hit with the crowds Monday evening.

See CLARA KIMBALL YOUNG, in "THE .HANDS .OF .NARA" A Drama of PERIL and MYSTERY NEWARK CRITICS LIKE "HOW COME' NEWARK CRITICS LIKE "HOW COME' By J. A. Jackson The "How Come" show upon which Ben Harris spent $6,000 before and during the brief season at the Apollo Theater in downtown New York, and which played a supplementary section of the weeks at the Lafayette Theater in upstown New York, went to the Shubert Theater in Newark, N. J. for the week of June 9, and was held over for another week on the show and the drawing power it exhibited. The Newark Ledger of June 10. The artistic sets that compared favorably with any Broadway revue, the pop of the chorus, who by the way were the best colored dancers any theatrical organization has carried; good music, a large orchestra that raced thru jazz scales and to the accompaniment of the nimble-footed shuffling of best all make "How Come" better than "Liza" and "Shuffle Mime." The Star-Eagle of the same date says "How Come" is the latest all-colored musical piece. It is made up mostly of slight-himmed dancing girls who move faster than a mosquito finds a hole in a screen. There isn't a moment when the girls aren't using their full lung power. In fact lung power and leg power are the horsepower of "How Come"—and its about 120 I.P. P. Memory of it is by a daze of black legs and brown arms. If you haven't seen any colored show, and wont to catch a representative, see "How Come". If you have and want to see more, see "How Come". If you haven't seen any masque show ever dreamed of. Then is but some resin to give the twinkling toes something to get a grip on". From the newspaper reviews, and the holderover, it is quite apparent that the show has hit the road very favorably. Eddie Hunter is the producing star of the show.

Plenty of Music SOUTH'S BIGGEST AND BEST WEEKLY Professor Fudge Says The American Woodmen of the district in which Baltimore is located will go into convention here on August 6th. The American Woodmen make up a little different kind of organization from the rest of the fraternal orders. While it was founded as late as 1907 it is nevertheless a one of the strongest institutions of its kind in the country. Both numerically and financially. Their success is possibly due to the fact that their minute members. They understand the financial end of it and that is saying lots. The Woodmen as innumerous have not spared a single tree. The Chief of this district is one Col. A. Gilmore. The Colonel was formerly connected with the Continental Army until brought to Baltimore by the goodmen to look at the particular forest. Colonel Gilmore is the joint of the delegation to convene here on August 6th. He is a good of success even before it emerges. One of the features of it is that there has been no great hurry, no shouting and squabbling, in fact, few people other than these directly interested know that there is to be a convention. However, this does not mean the work has been selected. The Col is simply going about it in his modest but interesting way. Baltimore Steamship Co. The latest is, a gentleman of color of Baltimore, our own Baltimore, he said some money down on a skill which is to run from Baltimore to Montreal, Liberia, West Coast of Africa and immediate stops. The loan I understand will be turned over to the gentleman when he makes another substantial payment. This payment hinges on stock which he expects to and doubts will sell. In that even he will be President of a Shamship Corporation and all he will have to do is to manage his business so that he will get the "sugar." This is about the fourth boat venture I have heard of among our people in the last three years. The Hon. Marcus Carvey, now BERTHA FOOTE BROOKLYN CARPENTER'S MUSEUM R. W. B. Dorsey, Cor. Sec'y (taking the rest cure, had a gang of boats with plans to get his hands on many more. A Reverend Gentleman in California himself, who was the bottom which promptly dropped out when he be set sail for Fatherland. a boat which is alleged to be in the South American trade. Some Haitians have recently formed a company and age to operate out of New York, but we won't go there, even though the United States has taken the island over hook line and sinker. As far as ventures go I have no kick up to date, we can point to at least four attempts. What we want now is at least one success. If the President of the new Steamship Company get on the job and use his head a little he may be able to bring this much desired success. For instance, he could see the Liberian Consul General and possibly through him the Liberian Government would advance fifty or all. To my knowledge there are two Captains out of jobs in Baltimore and these men must have work. A Bughouse Convention The Colored Republican meeting in Atlantic City went on records advocating what in their judgement is the best plan for the political advancement of the Negro race in America. They decided the best thing to do is to put race above party and vote to the best advantage.

A Republican Organization cannot be a Republican, a Democrat, and an independent organization at the same time. A program such as outlining, above, for any private individual would be good for the organization of Republicans it is the most ridiculous thing ever heard of. It appears that Mr. Johnson is the only man that receives any advantage out of the deal. He is first making all of the old bone, head Republicans read themselves out of the party and must provide the bone, and perhaps come up another plan fostered by the N. A. A. C. P., that idealist organization. All of the old guards, like Lin coln, Johnson, Phil Brown, Charlie Anderson, Ernest Lyon and many others used good sense and stayed away. They knew there by going. They also knew re- w was no advantage to be gained gardish of whatever action might gain AND adjutty in wage, eq the next Presidential Election round they will take the stump for the candidat just as an organiz- ation man should do. Mr. McCunnin was one of the Maryland representatives and ran the incumbent. He lined up with the incumbents. For the third time he has sad himself out of the party and for the third time he will read himself back in the par- ty, when the time arrives. I believe two things about this convention. I believe it was held mainly to get the pulse heat of the coming campaign fund. In the first place, and secondly to scare the National Republican Committee. Scaring the Committee was a failure but so far as the muzu, na was concerned only the committee, those persons concerned and God will known. Other than political matters, this housegathered convention went on provided to punishing Mr. Edge of New Jersey, a United States Senator and a gentleman, simply because they have an alleged grip-ance against the Harding Administration. This convention had neither common sense or police-ness. The Crisis Needs A New Editor Some few years ago, Mr. W. E. R. Dubois severely arranged the Colored Newspapers of this country. He accused the editors of everything but knowing how to edit a newspaper. According to his statement with one or two exceptions, there were no really "honest to goodness" colored papers, or not.

As the merging of Provident Hospital with the new project was understood to be the object of the campaign four years ago, doubt is expressed in some quarters as to whether the Victory Hospital trustees could legally claim the fund if the plan fell through.

Mr. Awwell's appointment to the prison board is the first recognition the Governor has given the Negro electorate since his election. The position carries with it great responsibility and influence. Other members of the board are Samuel S. Fels, multi-millionaire soap manufacturer, philanthropist, sociologist, W. Fleshier, sociologist, real estate firm of Mountain Brothers & Fleshier, the largest such concern in Philadelphia; Dr. Linn Bowman, moguls instructor at the Penitentiary, and Dr. Herbert M. Goddard, member of the County Prison Board. The honor to the Community Service director is looked upon as a distinct advantage to the entire race. His appointment is the first of his kind with which a Negro has been appointed. He will not other states will not be backward in following the lead established by Pennsylvania. Thus Governor Pinchot's action has been tantamount to opening a new field to colored workers. The Harmon Foundation offer to Community Service, through Mr. Atwell, is fraught with tremendous significance. It is similar to the Rosenwald idea which has planted schools for Negroes in many parts of the South. That is to say, the Council must help to help any of a certain class of Negro communities to buy playgrounds. Two conditions of the offer follow: First: In any town or city where there is an established community of colored people numbering between 2,000 and 10,000 and where this group of people feel the need of adequate recreation places and are willing to cooperate in the acquisition of the land to develop the land and maintain it for permanent recreation ground, the Harmon Foundation will contribute to 25 per cent of the purchase price of the land, the maximum of this offer being $1,000. Second: In any town or city where there is a community of Colored people between 2,000 and 10,000 population, and in which community the need for a recreation place is great, but when there is some good reason, the time is not for raising money for the purchase, such as a place, the Harmon Foundation buys the land and lease it to a local association for a period of five years with the option to buy at cost, plus interest at the rate of 4 per cent per annum. Under this plan the Foundation asks that 25 per cent of the land of the land shall be raised locally. Prison Bars Fail To Separate Them It happened at the City Jail where a crowd of whites had gathered to visit prisoners during the waiting hours for whites. Approaches the gate, a well-dressed and constructive colored man and asks to see a man named Phillips. "Phillips? Phillips? Phillips?" said the keeper at the gate as he scareded his mind to recall if any colored prisoner was there by that name. "There is no colored man here by that name," he said, "but there is a white man." "He's my husband and as soon as he gets out we'll be together again," she replied. The gate opened, and entered Mrs. Nina Phillips to see her big-amous husband James A. Phillips, who was sentenced to five years in the Penitentiary last week for marrying her and two white women. Mrs. Phillips told the Afro-American that she was stunned by the unexpected 5 years given her husband. 220-224 S I BROADWAY 1022-1024 FAWN STREET 1628 PENNA. AVENUE Cor.

Sine's race Fresh from the road and not retiring just of the Germans and their doctrine of the racial inferiority of the remainder of the white race. Having found the passage again, he had just begun to read: "The notion of superior and inferior peoples spread like wildfire through Germany, and the literature and politics were profoundly influenced by it---" when a passenger rushed into the room. "Is this Boone we are coming into, porter k?" he demanded excitedly and in a foreign accent, at the same time peering anxiously out of the window at the twinkling lights off the town toward which the train was rushing. "I never knew Dixon, 'we'll not be in Boone for twenty minutes yet. This is Ames.'" "Thank you," said the passenger relieved, "the porter on my car has gone to bed, and I feared I would be carried beyond my destination." He then started to leave when half-way, turned and asked, "May I ride in here with you?" He replied, "I will go to Dixon. Certainly, sir," welcomed Dixon, cordially, "Make yourself at home. Where are your grips?" and dropping his book on the seat, Dixon went for the grips. When Dixon returned the passenger was reading the book. "Thank you," he said, as Dixon placed the grips in the corner, then holding out the book he was reading at your book, and I find it's an old favorite of mine. "Ah, is it?" exclaimed Dixon with heightened cordiality. "This is the first English translation I have seen," continued the passenger, "and I think it pretty good." "Yes, sir, very good. But I prefer it in the original." "In the original!" exclaimed the passenger. "Vous parlez français, abas." You speak French, then abas. You speak French, then abas. "Where did you learn French—in New Orleans?" continued the passenger, in French. "I began it in college and learned it in France," responded the CATONSVILLE, MD. JAMES H.

"An American, but I have been in Cuba, I learned Spanish in the Philippines." "You have travelled a great deal, I see." "Yes, it seems to be my luck. I returned from the Philippines in time to get a position as valet to a about to tour South America, becoming six month later his private secretary. Together we visited various countries of the world. Air, Simpson died white we were in Bordeaux. That accounts for my stay there." "Did you like it in France?" "Oh, I like it better than anywhere else on earth, but Simon & Co. failed on account of the bad crops and I was thrown out of work. As I had been longing to see the folks at home I returned to America. I will think with your knowledge of French and Spanish you ought to be able to get a better job than this." "Well, I have never been able to get one, and when one has a family he must get the wherewithall to live some way." "But have you tried to get something better?" "Iaving continually. On my return from Europe I advertised for a position as French and Spanish correspondent. I received a good many replies, but when my prospective employers saw me they all made various excuses. There was one, though, who, declaring he was headbounded, would employ me, but his offer was so that I refuses it on principle." "Too bad for a man of your stamp and education. You said you went to college? Do you mind coming a little closer, I can't hear for the noise. I spent a scandaler and a bluff at Yale then the war with Spain broke out and I insisted," said the porter, drawing nearer.

The ridicule was too much for him. He stopped immediately, then started to explode again, and, apparently at a loss for words, sat down. He later proved to be one of the finest passengers I have ever served." The two then began to exchange experiences of French life, reverting soon after to the subject of the book and its author. "I remember the great sir created by this book that it appeared," I told the passenger. "Finet has done a great service for humanity. He woll merits the honor conferred on him—Officer of the Legion of Honor." "He is called one of the makers of modern France," added Dixon. "Did you know that despite his French name, he is a Pole?" Then capping the twinkling lights of the town, he exclaimed, "Ah, here we are coming into Boone now," "Good-bye," said the passenger, with genuine regret in his voice, "I'm sorry that our acquaintance is so short. I'm stopping here only for the night and I will go on to have had you all the way." "I'm sure you'll have a pleasant FROSTBURG, MD. Frostburg, Md., Aug. 2.—Rev. E.

EVERY MAN WHO HA FORCE OF YOUTH Scientists Make Wonderful Under 100 Years A new discovery is said to have been made by a scientific study of Serbian mountain people who scientists say, live longer than any other people. It is said this discovery should add many years to lives of people in all parts of the world and quickly restore manly strength, youthful vigor, grace and beauty lost by neglect or abuse. Scientists agree that the secret of health and vigor lies in the internal glands and if these glands are stimulated and kept in normal activity, man might live forever and alliments such as tired, worn-out feeling, weakness, nervous debility, shallow complexion, loss of weight, poor memory, poor memory, restlessness at night, pains, headache, melancholy, despondency, etc., should disappear. The difficulty encountered by the medical world has been to find the right invigorator for the grunts. This new discovery is simple, perfectly harmless, inexpensive, and can be taken in the privacy of the home. It Mme. GRAYSON BEAUTY PARLOR Hairdressing 1828 PENNA. AVE. Manicuring, Etc. Hours: 9 A.

We had not heard from him for months, and were fearful he bad gone "west". Yet the war was over. One night about 2 o'clock I heard brother's googles on the front porch. I hastily dressed and from downstairs jut in time to open the door for him. "Hush!" was his strange greeting. "don't wake father and mother. I will see them in the morning." We held a whispered conversation with him then with a rather sad "good-night" I pitched him to his own room and returned to my bed to rest in little slumber. Needless to say, awake early, prepared breakfast for four and called for my parents. "Why prepare for company?" asked mother. "Did you not hear some one come in last night?" Father and mother had slept so soundly they had not heard anything. I thought it best to have my brother spring the surprise himself. I knocked bellybutton his door. I opened the door and answer. I proudly opening the door, I found the room empty. My visit with my brother was only a dream. A month from that night my brother was home in the flesh. Remarkable Story After Nathan Kessler, convicted of stealing jewels, was taken to his cell in Philadelphia, a handsome woman, neatly dressed, asked to see him, saying she was a relative and wished to tell her story before he served his sentence. As she kissed him the guard saw a small packet tied up in cigarette papers passed from her into Kessler's mouth. The woman left the prison with tears streaming down her face. A few minutes later Kessler was found dead in his cell with the death pellet still in his mouth.

There was a man in our town Whose name was Simon Slick. He owned a mule with dreamy eyes; Oh, how that mule could kick! He'd shut one eye and shake his tail, He'd greet you with a smile; Then he would telegraph his leg. And raise you half a mule. He would kick as quick as light- ning; He had an iron jaw; He was just the thing to have around To tame your mother-in-law. His skin was gutta percha; His hoofs were hard as lead; He would raise you like a feather And stand you on your head. He kicked a feather out of a goose, He broke an elephant's back. He stopped a Texas railway train, And kicked it off the track. He bit a Thomas cat in two, And pulverized a hog. He dissected seven Chinaman And killed a yellow dog. He stopped a steamboat with his He waged to He poked his hind foot down his throat And kicked himself to death.

So much so that he tried the deacon's patience very much urging them to hasten the time when he should appear to the public for his sermon. The deacons finally arranged the date and he preached a wonderful sermon, as the deacons thought. After the trial sermon, the Rev. remained in the community, but never mentioned preaching again. One day one of the deacons went to look him up. Look here Rev., you say God called you to preach, didn't you asked the deacon. "Yes", says the Rev.

Heart Problems Answered By Annie Roney A. M. M. It is Better To allow the young men to do the telehoning, my dear. Tootls—Until you become formally engaged, do not kiss the man. Marie—Do not give this young man too much thought, my dear. Divide your time among all your friends. Since you are not engaged, both you and he have the privilege of having many friends. It is not proper for a young man to put his arm around a girl in the theater, but what should a girl say to the young man who does this without hurting his feelings? With a twinkle in your eye you may say that you are uncomfortable. He will understand. Easter Egg—Indeed you are not doing right, my dear, in allowing this young man to treat you as if you were an unmarried girl. Keep him for a friend and allow him to call on you occasionally when there are others present, but insist on his friendship remaining friendship and nothing more. Down in your heart you know what is the right thing to do, don't you? There is a young fellow next door to me whom I am very fond of. I have been introduced to him.

Afo-American pays a dollar each week for the best one received during the week. Address Embarrassment Editor, Afo-American. I was sweet 16, right from the country and as verdant as the grass in my native pastures. I had gone to the city to learn dress-making in a large establishment in which a number of other girls, all older than I, were employed. I had not worked there long enough for much of the course to weaken if then other girls began to joke me about a stubborn boss on my lip. All agreed that Tulip Salve was the only reme and suggested I go to the drug store on the next corner and supply myself. The handsome young druggist looked carefully over the sheets and show cases, and with a peculiar undressed he was out. Then I saw the point and beat a hasty retreat from the vicinity and never went back. $1 PRIZE WINNER My husband and I dislike the same kinds of food, but our likes differ. For instance, neither of us cares for cucumbers or bologna. While we both like all vegetables, he favors spinach and beets while I like asparagus and wax beans. So we take turns going to market.

Georgia replied, "Put Miss — See one bright light way down the door?" That's what your companionship has meant to me." Needless to say, I treasure that compliment as the sweetest ever given me. Had Tried Everything An old colored lady was reeling her troubles with a worthless husband to a sympathetic minister. "Nothing didn't seem to do him good," she said with a sigh.

The new players were "Spes" arke, former Washington Potato- sicle shortstop and Ford former back Sox second-baseman, Clarke short and Ford tended the back Sox third. Poe was shifted to third and Cheo Smith was att to the left garden. If the jinx which had been trailing the team in general did a aide, the particular jinx that is been pursuing Doc Sikes practically all season in his Sabathia box as usual, and after tolling three and one-third innings, Doc which period seven hits and four tallies were collected off a Baptist delivery Mr. Jinx wooed Doc, hit the trail to the "shows." Carter was summoned to the site and for the balance of the day held the Churchville tossers five hits and four runs. Flourney, the big southpaw subarin chunker was on the hill for the visitors and although he hits had been garnered off him he had turned the Sox back by the eagre route until the fourth mug when they made three coers. In this inning, Flournoy was put out of the game for refusing to accept a new ball after Empley Auney had ordered the ball he had been using thrown out. Hubbard was then sent to the hill and after messing through it fist and third with only two to dribble on him, "blow up" in the tenth and the locals had a bit which totaled six more marks, a margin which put the old game in the game kit. Hubbard was batted from the lil in this frame and "Cannonall" Dick Redding was sent in to top the onslaught. With two ends down and Poles on third after the first man to face the second, the ball fell down three ones. Clurte followed and also four, filling the lags. Ford angled scoring Poles. Wilson then added the rally by forcing Forker the third out. Brooks to Wager. In this frame Cole Smith hit in the right-field bleachers for the circuit with Ford and Hall on, her batting stars of this game were Brooks, who hit four times out of five trips one being a circuit smash. Poles who hit twice out of four trips both swats being triples and Ford who hit safely three times in five trips. Hill and also hit triples and Carson two doubles. Other features were two double hits by the visitors and the pilings of Rojo who stole a trio of Brooks.

But Carr showed his brilliance by doing the prettiest tightening up in the pinches of any hurler seen here, forcing the visitors to pop up time and again when a tittle single would have sent a more tallies across the pan.

(The Old Boy Himself) REQUESTED H. A. PATENT OFFICE CRANEMAN THE NEW YORKER First G Swimming Safe In Druid Park Pool GUARDI ALLEN WATTY Under the waffle eye of Allan Watty and the eye guards at the David Hill Park Swimming Pool thousands of persons disport in the water each week. Unlike the other city pools, there is a constant outflow of water at this pool, thus ensuring cleanliness and decontamination elements. In addition the pool is drained twice weekly and the sides and bottom thorny scrubbed. SWIMMERS THE hot weather is driving swimming pools and desir many people to refuge in to get into the water may lead to accidents. Rubber shoes should be observed. However the climate of accidents in the water will be reduced. Gene Metlure who has been guarding bathers 18 years in Kansas City and in Minneapolis, in winter, has a few rules calculated to protect swimmers. Some of them: Don't enter the water immediately after eating; wait at two hours. Dangerous cramps may result if this rule is violated. Don't dive off high places without first learning to dive off lower ones. Become accustomed to diving from lower places so you can, time, correctly. Don't make foolish boasts. Mary boys who do so are helpful when playful compulsions push them into deep water to swim. Don't attempt to swim under water too long. This taxes the tubes too much. Don't get excited if a cramp seizes you. Unless it is in the abdomen it is not dangerous in a small pool. A cramp in the feet, limbs or arms can be massaged away. Don't call for help for fun.

GODFREY TELLS HOW HE PUT DEMPSEY DOWN Whip News Service Chicago III. August 2.—Big George Godfrey, who fights Bill Tate August 10, was reported to have actually floored Dempsey while the latter was in training for his fight with Tommy Gibbons. Whether or not big George actually dipped the champion, only those in the rings will ever that is, if you prefer sawyer's statements for your proof, but if you are able to read be- ween lines you might be able to gain something from the follow- ing conversation with the big matter. "Tell me about your reported knowl of Jack Dempsey," we pleaded. "I see, sir, you do not understand, my name is Godfrey not Daughter, he is my manager, you know." "Yes, I understand very well that you are George Godfrey and your manager is Bill Daugherty, but I wanted you to tell me just how you floored Dempsey." "Just a moment I'll see if I can find my manager's address for Perhaps had I asked Godfrey if he was trying to dodge the issue of exposing or contradicting the rumor he would have explained himself if precisely, but I realized that this was my age card and that I must not let my knowledge of this fact become known to him. What We Got "I say, Godfrey, they say Dempsey bounces like a rubber ball to hive against when knocked down, what a hit." "There is nothing to that," suggested the big tighter. "He gets up just like any other man on his hands and knees." This of course was a confession in itself for we knew well that unless Godfrey had seen Dempsey down at Shelby, he never witnessed it; but this did not satisfy us. What did the champion say after the knockdown, Godfrey?" "Nothing." Well, George, what kind of a much did you use?" To this we received no reply, the question was in all probability too direct. It was evident he was wise to our game. "Well, Godfrey," we continued. "This man pointing to our companion says, he actually saw the award and that it was an important. Did you ever land an important on the champion?" "Yes." "Were you trying to knock him out?" To this Godfrey laughed like a big boy and replied, "No, I simply hit him a lucky punch and he fell." Thus ended our day's work. KID NORFOLK COMING TO MARYLAND PARK The Black Sox baseball park is to be used for something else besides baseball. Spadgett sent a representative to Philadelphia seeking to arrange teams with manager George Cotdroft, papal of ex-champion, Jack Johnson for a match with Kid Norbison of Baltimore, to take place around August 15th. According to Mr. Spadgett, arrangements have already been made with Kid Norbison, who is anxious to show local fans what he can do. Norbison defeated Jamaica Kid two weeks ago for light heavyweight championship of America, thus retaining the Tex Hickard diamond bet. In case arrangements with Goddess tail through, the Loster Johnson may be secured for the bout. New York, Aug. 2—According to reports circulated here this week, Jess McMahon is trying to stage a bout between Harry Wills and Hall Tate, to take place on Aug. 25. McMahon conceived the idea of a Wills-Tate bout after it became certain that Jack Kearns had sidetracked Wills for Firpo, as the best opponent for Jack Dempsey. FIRPO FEARS DEMPSEY New York, Aug. 2.—The attempt of Harry Wills and his manager Padia Mullins to force Jack Dempsey to give Wills a battle before Pirpo the South American heavyweight is accommodated, was given a new twist here this week, by no less a person than Pirpo himself. He Wild Bell of the Pamps" is quoted in the Wild Bell told a representative of the Omaha Herald on his arrival in that city for his bout Friday night with Homer Smith, that he had rather wait for a year and meet some other boxers before facing Dempsey. When pressed closer in regard to his attitude on his coming bout with Dempsey he said that while he would live up to his contract and meet the champion, he considered Harry Wills a much more popular opponent for the champion at this time.

YOU CAN PUT IT RIGHT IN THE ICE BOX. MY SWEET MADAM AINT HOME! ST.LOUISAN WINS MID-WEST TOURNEY ST.LOUISAN WINS MID-WEST TOURNEY Chicago. Aug. 2—With Edgar Brown in Baltimore and Dr. O. B. Williams laid off with an injured hand Richard Huddlin won the Mid-West Tennis Tourney on the Pririe Tennis Club Grounds. Huddlin won, 6-3, 2-6, 6-1, 6-8, 6-3. More than Huddlin's share of smashes from lobs, tells a true story of the outcome alone. However, as a true story of the failure or fall down of Turner lies in his poor judgment, and the lack of "change of pace." Just why the losing man refuses to change his stance to the right, the ball in the middle of the court and get away with it, we are at a loss to say. Poor Judgment It was Hudlin's superior thinking that won the title for the St. Louis man. He is undoubtedly a better player than Turner and surely a better player than either of those warriors proved to be on this occasion, but we feel safe in saying it was Turner's reluctance at attempting smashes that proved losers' unbinding. It's a sad story, but hard to hard to relate, nevertheless it is raw. Hudlin was a good player Saturday; hardy great, but easily good; for a man is hardy great in our sight when "taking candy." On the offensive Hudlin was a marvel, his service eclipsed that of Brown or Dr. Williams. But on the defensive it was simply a case of minding the golden eggs while the goose good.

State field leader of the Playground League, who recently in Ogden Hall, Hampton Institute, before the summer school students. The program for colored boys and girls has been divided into three parts: track and field events for the boys, athletic badge tests; year twenty-one conducted for school children. There were 4225 different colored boys who competed in track and field events: 177 boys' dodge-ball teams, with ten boys to the team; 3356 boys competed in the badge test; 385 girls competed in the ball game; different schools were presented in track and field events. The work in the colored school began in 1919. Driving Game Triumphs Over Soft Chop Stroke Local 'Cut Stroke' Artists Upset by Visitors Who Use 'Top Spin.'

I truly take notice in amount in amount to the work that in the fires Eastern tournament for the singles championship of the Atlantic States, the driving game demonstrated its superiority in unmistakable force the soft and precisely play seen almost universally among our leading and best tennis players up until the summer of 1922. Times change, and the big Eastern championships have started the tongues "awagging" all because the old favorites and cut-ball stylists fell before the fast driving top-six of the few newcomers this year with rather modest and less imperious results, and one old timer who came back with the hard dashing game because of confidence gained in close observation of the finals in New York and Philadelphia last August and a reconfirmed belief in its efficacy to carry him to the championship. To be somewhat more specific the first shock came in the Baltimore Mets, and the second best, the Mets, fell before Young Woolridge, of Washington, who drives the ball on the backhand as well as the forehand, then Woolridge beat his teammate another "cutter," Mr. Dan Monroe, while I was easily disposing of the old master and head of the "put-ball" fraternity of the Chicago Cubs, his spaldin generality and oft-repeated reputation for running his opponent all over the court. Score 6-2, 6-2. But the really big upset came in years ago, in all unfamiliar ways. Since the first few weeks of the baseball season, some of the local amateur teams have failed to continue sending to the Aro the weekly results of their games so that we could keep their place correct in the Amateur Standings. Some have failed to do so because they have been losing. This is poor sports love so long as you have played your best, and moreover, it is unfair to your opponent not to acknowledge the credit that it is in defeating you. So, come on boys, send in your games and let's have a hot race among the amateurs down the home stretch! We shall expect you to comply with this request. Editory Flowers Beats 'Tut' (Preston News Service). Springfield, O., July 26.—Tiger Flowers, pride of the South, won his second fight from Tut Jackson, here Wednesday night when he was awarded a decision by Referee Jack Carroll at the end of 12 rounds of fighting. Flowers was so elusive and clever that Jackson did not lay a glove on him, except when they were in clinches and close quarters. Flowers moved so fast, Jackson was hitting the air with his famous right from star to finish, and before he was in position to shoot, the Tiger would shower him with right and left hooks about the body and face. tennis annually, when my hard-hitting doubles partner and a player eligible for next year's veterans tournament, the fiery, tall, Washington team, the quickest and hardest fighting tennis player in America, and for several years Baltimore's champion and sports pride, Dr. B.

It was a clean out trump for the driving game over the cut and chop-ball variety. Two of Baltimore's leading players have made a bow to me over the course, musically all as long as they live. I see for them great success and unblocked for enjoyment and genuine fascination that in all these years of playing they have in common with other ambitious one I recommend again a little reading at least of the best tennis literature of authors like Blackburn or Everest and a weekly visit to some country club where they are bound to see the proper form, technique, equipment, clothing, Alonzo and Shimzu and the many Davis Cup matches, this summer as often as you can afford it.

Of course, Mrs. Austin is my choice among the women provided Miss Crawford, of New York, or Mrs. Browning, of Tennessee, of Philadelphia, must be reckoned with even though she does cut the ball. For that matter so do they all except the undefeated National women's tennis champion, Miss Jeannie Chamels, of Chicago, or Miss Radcliffe, of the same city. Ned Gourdin To Be Olympic Candidate Hubbards' Feats Bring Record Holder From Retirement The remarkable broad jumping feats of De Heir Hubbard of the University of Michigan in the recent intercollegiate championship meets in the Middle West, where on two different occasions he came within an inch or two of Ned Gourdin's world record of 25 feet 3 inches, has brought the world's record holder out of temporary retirement. In a letter to Hugh H. Hirschman chairman of the A. C. Athletic committee of the Wiley A. A. Gourdin has written that he will surely take part in big Wileo meet at the Yankee Stadium on September 8, and furthermore, that he expects to go to the Olympic Games next summer as the best broad jumper on the American team.

Yes, we have no Dempsey-Wills fight scheduled for Labor Day. Jack Kearns, Manager of Jack Dempsey DID NOT keep his word, and thus Harry Wills is still "out in the cold." According to the couriers of Fistiana, if any fight between Dempsey and some other heavyweight takes place on the annual "knock off" day of the labor unions, the party of the second part will be Seraphim, Cherubin, or (Angel, I believe it is) Pirio, the Argentine brusher, who helped William Wilard them fans out of their hard-earned or softly-gotten cash in New York recently. . Well, Wilks has nobody to blame but himself, and his manager, Paddy Mullins. If they want to fight Dempsey, they should be doing a continuous ballyhoo up and down the country keeping the old spotlight, dizzy trying to follow them, instead of keeping out of print for months at a time. Wills is not growing any younger, neither is he doing any fighting up or hitting power up on the scratch, and next thing they know some dub will come along and accidently slip a dose of fistic either to the champion Jack, thereby gaining possession of the diadem now jawfully perched on his forehead. And by the time the new champ goes on his collar the drawing while he gathers in the "easy coin" Wilks will be booking over the advertisements of the colored weeklies for the best old folks' home. Say what you will or may about the stick work of the Black Sox team, there is one player who has been a shining star with the willow ever since he has been with the club, namely, Blanche Hall. Hall has never dropped below the 350 mark in his hitting since donning a Sox uniform. In 1921 he finished the season with a batting average of .22 he inched with the mark of .353, and as published in this paper last week he is leading the club this season with .401. "Lefty" Smith is another consist, tent bitter, who hasn't dropped below the 300 mark for the past three years. He finished 22 with 352 per centage, 22 with 331 and so far this season is batting .352. The NEW YORK WORLD is one of the squared newspapers in the country in dealing with matters pertaining to the colored race.

Battling Siki may have a keen or sense of humor than he is greet credit for. Lately he had the purse of all his houts attached by his creditors who claimed that he owed them money. Now he is being sued for 60,000 frames by the promoters of his latest bout with Morelle on the charge of having written a letter to the press a few days before the bout stating that he would not be on hand. The result was, that Morelle was, in most of the fight fans had accepted the letter in good faith and were somehow else. As we say, maybe Monsieur was having zeo leetle joke—on his creditors. WILLS PROTESTS THE FIRPO BOUT "Tex Rickard matchmaker says, "Harry Wills" plea to fight Dempsey is surely deserving. I put on $1,000 to fund Wills and Dempsey but the State Boxing Commission wouldn't sanction the bout." Paddy Mullins, manager of Wills says, "We challenged Dempsey prior to before Firpo was heard of and we have a home fidel bond of the match, but we are no nearer getting a chance at the heavyweight title than we were when we first challenged him three years ago." Jack Kearns, manager of Dempsey says. "Jack Dempsey has stood ready to meet anyone, draws no color line and will accept the challenge of Harry Wills when the New York Boxing Commission commits a match. We took him. Firpo because Jack had been tall for too long." New York, Aug. 2—Harry Wills and his manager Paddy Mullins have at last come to life. In so doing, they have given an example of being the stable attacker in a horse has been stolen, Wills and Mullins went before the State Athletic Commission Tuesday in an effort to restrain Dempsey from engaging in a battle with Firpo until he has given Wills a battle. This is in keeping with the ruling of the commission last year when it forced Dempsey on petition to partridge bouts in this State to accept the challenge of Wills which died with a $2500 guarantee. this departure for Shelby prior to the Dempsey-Gibbons fight, promised him that Will would be given the first consideration after the Montana bout. The commission withheld his decision in the matter.

Cus- special game was set of a special game played by the Negro National League Clubs, the proceeds from same to be turned into a National Memorial Fund for the erection of a National Monument in Memory of the late Hoosier baseball magnate, C. I. Taylor. Mr. Taylor was one of the out- standing characters of Negro baseball and was known all over the country for the many valuable services he rendered the great national game. In an in- spiration of this service that Mr. An- rube Foster, along with his co- league members has set aside these special days when games will be played for this purpose by all the league clubs. The Memorial game was won by the A. B. C. Club, 7-1. MY BE SICK?

At least in aviation there won’t be any detour signs, nor chickens nor cows in the roads. Methodist Unification. A new set of unification plans have been drafted by & committee representing the two branches of the great Methodist Episcopal Church. __ These plans are said to be without some of the ob- Jections that brought the effort instituted some years ago to an unsuccessful conclusion. The hitch has always been the Southern attitude on the race question, Just what concessions have been made to Southern sentiment along these lines will be eagerly watched not only by the vast colored membership of this church but by every American citizen. Religion, based as it is upon the highest impulse of human behavior, even the religion of Jesus Christ. has not been able to guide the actions of men when selfish- ness, greed and injustice propel them. Two generations after the Civil War a great church is slill swayed by the hatreds growing out of the struggle over slavery of hu- man beings. Religion, like other veneers of civitization, is still only skin deep. Indeed modern religion knows little of the sacrifice and staunch adhesion to right exemplified by its founder. It seems to be degenerating into a spine- less institution catering to greed and power. A new spiritual awakening is needed. If religious leadership continues as at present, we might just as well tear from our souls this hypocritical image of the crucifix and cease to chant meaningless dogmas. . That Africa must some day pass through the same inter-racial struggle as that through which America is now passing is shown by the ever-recurring instances of racial conflicts in this much partitioned land of unde- veloped wealth. ‘A recent instance is that of the Kenya question that is now giving the British Colonial Office much concern. - Kenya Colony is the new name for what used to be German East Africa. Here live 3.000.000 colored natives, 23,000 Hindus and 10,000 British whites. Need- less to say, the 10.000 white British dominate and rule the natives and Hindus. In civie matters they outvote the 3,230,000. Although the natives have some sort of franchise because of the fear of what the Hindus would -do with it, the voting privilege has been denied the latter, Trouble is now seen in their incessant demands. Signifi- cantly the trouble the British see is not confined to the few Hindus in Kenya, but is closely connected with the ever-growing restlessness of the darker races in the East. The point of main interest to the Negro group is that Africa, now fully partitioned for the future ex- ploitation of European nations, is bound to have a gi- gantic racial history that will make our group in this coun- by seem small in comparison. Somehow we cannot help feeling that the American Negro group lacks the vigorous and practical interest in this enormously rich continent that it should have The Necro Economic Balance. a The economic growth ot the Negro group in Aliel™ jea has been phenomenal. When it is fully understood just what relation this economic development bears to ‘and effects Negro advancement, there is little doubt that our leaders will expend more energy in its proper guid- ance. . Down beneath most of the elemental predudice and injustice is the effort to keep the Negro group sub- jnerged in a position of serfdom and is an economic system whereby they must produce not only for them- ‘selves but for the would-he leisure group of aristocratic whites. They call it white supremacy and they, raise the red flag of social eauality as a smoke screen. But the foundational aim of that scheme hatched as an after- math of slavery in the South and tolerated in the North is:to suck the blood of Neero labor. The whole problem then of completely emancipat- ing the group rests in complete economic independence. ‘This will come only when: q 1. The group produces what it consumes and in addition a surplus convertable in race, owned capital ‘and savings. oe =. 2, The ownership of sufficient land to produce all raw materials needed by 10,000,000 human beings. = 3. Investment in and ownership of sufficient fac- “toa produce the necessities to. maintain life inde- “pendent.of all other sources. S24, The direction and ownership of a banking sys- “item to promote the development of savings and surplus qwealth. 3 eit B.A, system of distribution including stores to “properly handle the commodities of at least the popu- ‘lation represented by the race. a Until this economic balance is set up neither laws ‘ior sentiment can really keep the Negro group from be- sing ata disadvantage in the race of life. With it, he “gould quietly demand ‘his place in the Sun. OLD TIMER | | Lodges Are Paying His Ex- penses, He Says : The — renorter Fe found Old Viner at Son, Grace A OM.
