WOULD POISON WHOLE FAMILY
Red-Headed Yankee Once Won the Title of "Law and Order" Coolidge
Bill Lewis Will Succeed
Link Johnson As Political Aide
(By The Assa, Negro Press)
Washington, Aug. 9.—Political chaos has come as a result of Mr. Harding's death. There is coming about a new alignment of voters and political workers as a result of the assumption of the duties and office of President by Mr. Coolidge. What, most men are asking, is he going to mean to us?
In one respect the new President is said to be widely understood. The public seems content for the present to base its estimates of the character it this dyeed-in-the-wool Yankee and red-headed president by his preemery, definite and effective action in the Boston police strike of some years ago, action which resulted in his choice for the Vice-Presidency and his gaining of the name, "Law and Order." Coolidge.
Political wiseresses of both races debearo Coolidge to be a man of strong personal convictions. They took upon him as a little man physically, big inside and full of strength. There is some inclination to fear that he may develop Napoleonic tendencies in the firmness and forthrightness of his policies. There is no sign, according to those who have expressed themselves, of the straddler in Coolidge. He will meet issues as they come up to him and dispose of them. Not much so far has been written if the career of the new President is a politician. Despite the fact that he is governor of Massachusetts, the title is king, he is not utilizing the political organization in the Bay State which was responsible for his election, first by a 7,000 majority and again by 125,000. Those interested in the events of the next few months preceding the Republican National Convention with what efficacy Coolidge is going to be able to work in with the Republican leaders of the organization as it now is. Harding was the leader of the party in every way, the titular of the actual head, but will he be able to assume the actual reigns of leadership, a feat that depends on personality, strength of character, and the ability to force co-ordination of the lives and works of strong, big men who are working at visting the themselves and to the Presidency?
Will he be able to line up Borah, nson, LaFollette, and the rest of group? Which friends, of Hard-
, active, powerful, and cohesive the good of the party organization, will Coolidge be able to retain, will he wish to? Has he any-
ing up his sleeve, so to speak?
It is expected that the group of Boston politicians who have labored with the new President in his less pretentious days are now to be the heirs presumptive to Presidential favor. There is already in Boston the Coolidge Republican Club, composed of the city's most influential, powerful, and astute Negro political leaders.
Despite what is known as Coolidge's austerity, aloofness and quietness, it is also known that he has been close and intimate with this organization.
Colored Americans may be compelled now to look in an entirely new direction for the amelioration of political ills. The boys who knew the President when he was a boy, who used to work for him, who have given him this and that advice, and so forth, no longer live in Ohio, but in Massachusetts. What now, it is wondered, will "Bill" Lewis, brilliant Massachusetts lawyer and former Assistant United States Attorney General, do? What of Matthews and the rest of the bunch?
While there is every indication that Coolidge will look to Boston his first pointer, it is well recognized that there it will be persistent offers of advice from other points of the compass. The organization that has been working in Georgia National Committeeman, had just begun to function. Whatever Johnson may attempt to do will be significant because of the peculiar nature of his interview connections. He has at his beck and call some of the most stature among Negro politicians, the real professionals. No one, it is believed, can foretell just what it will, these men may be able to expert.

Washington, Aug. 9—Director Hines is said to have promised Tuskegee whites and Dr. R. E. Moton to name a head and two white assistants for the Tuskegee Hospital. This would leave out Dr. T. E. Jones, colored, already certified by the Civil Service Bureau to head the hospital.

Tired of "Minding White Baby" He Puts Strychnine In Food
Best Way Boy Thought To Get Chance To Play and Rest
Centreville, Md. Aug. 8.—What the police believe was a plot by a 12-year-old boy, to wipe out a white family of husband and wife and two infant children was uncovered today by Justice Courteous Justice William, 1-year-old William of William C. Hall, 1-year-old Church Hall, had died ostensibly from injuries received in a fall. The funeral was hated at 2 o'clock this afternoon while the incarceration evidence which brought out evidence that Frank Bryson had placed quantities of strychnine in the baby's milk and had scattered the poison in so much cage, entangled and coffee in the Hall home, with the desired intention of killing Hall.
Bryson admitted causing the death of the child because he was "tired of attending" it, and said that he tried to kill Hull because he had been primed for stunning him last Saturday. The boy was placed in Centerville fail this afternoon without hull.
The boy took the child in for a ride in a small express wagon yesterday, and it was supposed that the street the child fell out and suffered injuries which caused its
Immediately afterward the infant suffered violent convulsions, and fearful that the full had resumed concussion, she withdrew with it for the Emergency Hospital, Eastop, but the baby died soon after they had left Centville. Returning to their home, members of the family were perplexed after tattered clothes, sugar and sugar cane. Hull complained of violent mins in his stomach, and it finally decided that some foreign substance had gotten into his eyes.

Between soils in the Justice's office the lad narrated the story of how he had determined to "get even" with his employer, and at the same time rid himself of the time-consuming job of how he had seen Mrs. Hailu tell how he had seen Mrs. Hailu use the strychnine last week to kill mice and sprinkled liberal portions in the bowl which he knew members of the police had taken. Pearing that the infant would escape, the boy placed some of the poison in its milk bottle and more of it on the bottle nipple. Bryson said he did not understand why he had taken his time taking care of children with no time for rest or recreation.

"BLACK AND WHITE REVUE" CAST BIG
Jimmy Cooper Engages More Colored Players For Mixed Burlesque Show for Columbia Circuit
TRIED OUT LAST SEASON
Waa Presented In Boston With Whites Playing First Half and Colored Last
By. J. A. Jackson
Jinnie Cooper the burlesque magnate who last season made the Gonzelle White company the talk of burlesque circles and who last summer installed a two part attraction called the "Black and White Revue" in Boston that became the high spot of the city's theatrical offerings, announced from his New York office that he will open on Columbia Circuit this season with the attraction with even more colored people in it than were on the program there.
The revue presented a first act with an entirely white cast and chorus. In the second act twenty Negroes, principals and chorus, were offered. The two types were thus offered on one bill with complete separation of the workers and complete satisfaction to the audience.
"Jinnie Cooper's Revue" will be precisely that sort of show, only larger and more elaborate.

The Berryville, Va., Horse show and Fair on July 25 and 26 went over with a wazz, according to Henry Hartman, the vice-president of the National Association of Colored Fairs for the Western Virginia Division. He says "The card was fair, attendance beyond expectation, no concessions, no family of concessions who did well, included a bigger representation of our group."
The Peach Orchard Orchestra left there to play the dates at Winchester Aug. 1, and the Order of Moses picnic, and Emancipation Day celebration at Norbeck and Frederick, Md. On Aug. 2, and 4, the book is booked up till October on special concerts.

5-Day Carnival For The Philly Churches
By J. A. Jackson
The African Methodist Episcopal churches of Philadelphia, twenty in number are sponsoring a carnival project that is being presented to the public from Aug. 20-25 in that city, billed as the "Grand Lincoln Celebration and Jubilee Festivities".
The date was set back from Aug. 6, at the request of the Bishop who is handling the affair for the churches. G. H. Hyman is the promoter who has linked up Church and Carnival. The results have been watched with interest.
It seems like a great chance for the colored showmen and concessioners to get in on a big date, as the promoters advertise an attendance of 40,000 daily.

To steal the bride of Waki meant certain death.—Yet she loved him as only a ravishing beauty of that dream country could love. Yet she called to him from her royal hut and he came, in the face of a thousand dangers. Don't miss this flaming romance of the adventurous South Seas. It is the most thrilling love drama of the year!

Jewels and costly gifts were not enough to induce Diana to wed the sheik. She had stolen away from her parents for adventure; but this was a little more than she bargained for and only the strategy of an Arab and quick work on her part enable her to escape from the harem. Alice Calhoun has a trying role in "One Stolen Night." The sheik is played by Russ Powell and the Arab by Herbert Hayes.
Six Hundred Theatre-goers Turned Away On Opening Night
"Plantation Days" the production staged by Lawrence Deas for a summer run, at a fashionable Northside, Chicago roadhouse as a floor show, opened for a preliminary week at the Avenue Theater, and turned away more than six hundred people after the house was sold out on the opening night, according to wired information from the Windy City.
The initial performance occured on July 9. Local papers were lavish in praise of the show that included Chappelle and the show that included Jones and Jones and the Five Crackergripers and Alain and Delancy. Seyur and Janette, Scott Allen and Lee and a speed chorus with Clarence Jones' Wonder Orchestra.

He tells us that his act includes a bucking mule, two ponies, two cats, and a dog. He called on the Page, after arranging with the Collins and Foom agency to handle his bookings.

Her repertoire includes four blues numbers all of which have been recorded, the two of them are very recent publications. Charles Anderson.
"Silas Green" Buys New Pullman Car
Charles Coijier, owner of the "Silas Green from New Orleans" Co. with very just pride sends a letter from which the following is quoted:
"I have purchased what I can truthfully state is one of the lines show cars in the business. We are having steel underframe, electric lights, hot underframe, electric water, ladies and men's wash rooms, two large lockers, a kitchen, a combined office and state room, 26 foot baggage end, and accommodation for sleeping 46 people." It is 78 feet
"We have been enjoying wonderful success. Still it is not to be wondered at . . . Every year I change the show from start to finish, present entirely new costumes, and persistly decline to permit and smut or even suggestiveness."

The State of West Virginia seems to be the present-day Stecca colorated attractions. Leon Long has his "Hello Rutus" in the State. The Huntingdon Mighty Minstrels are there. So is the Georgia smart Set Company, the Virginia smart Set show, Melba and Moore's Tabloid Company. Drake and Walker show is in the territory. So is Helen Bunting of talent. Some concentration of talent in a small State. Most of the snow are \needing their routes, and advance agents are having the time of their lives, kidding one another.

“THE BRIGHT
SHAWL”
For 20 years art has striven for a triumph such as this.
Joseph Hergesheimer's colorful romance of Cuban nights, languorous—but suddenly alame at the whirling fringe of
THE BRIGHT SHAWL
Of the many characters created by Bartheless we believe his pantomimic artistry is most appealing in this story of a young American's encounter with the impatient Cuban Lady of the Bright Shawl. A drama of hearts, flowers, swords—and a great soul.
Screen adaptation by
EDMUND GOULDING
To make "The Bright Shawl" the online company spent several months in Cuba. It represents sincere artistic effort while striving for the maximum of popular entertainment. See it!

Annual Appropriation For Downingtown In Jeopardy
Downingtown, Pa., Aug. 9—The work at the Downingtown Industrial and Agricultural School may be seriously crippled should you put out of the State treasury $56,000 appropriated at the recent session of the Legislature.
Officials claim that such appropriations for private schools should be made in special bills, and not thru the general appropriation bill. The Thaddeus Stevens' Industrial School at Lancaster is similarly affected, as well as a school for Indians.
Dr. James H. N. Waring, former head of the Baltimore Colored High School, is principal of the Downingtown institution.

Georgia Banker Robs His Client
By William Pickens
Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 3, (A. N. P.)—to "Mr. O-" and left them every month—and was so confidential with his good white friend that he took no receipt.
Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 3. (A. N. P.)—There was a man whom we used to hear about every August—the first bale man—whom all the newspapers would praise for bringing in the first bale of cotton for the whole United States each season. He got the prizes. He got into the Associated Press. He got everything except the status of a human being in Georgia.
Booker T. Washington carried this man, Deal Jackson was his name, all over the United States, for Booker knew a good thing when he saw it—and Deal served as a fine illustration of what Booker was talking about—sort of "well-to-do" successful "well-to-do" Negro of the South, who had "solved his problem" by getting what the Georgia whites wanted.
And Dead Jackson was an ideal Negro for Southern white people. He had confidence in them; he trusted them; he believed them to be his best friends. He trusted Mr. O—the Atlanta banker, more than he trusted his own wife. He told her nothing about his business; he seemed afraid that she and the children were going to know how much he had. He carried all of his money, all of his deeds, all of his contracts, all of his moners
Bishop Beckett To Fight Suit
Jackson, Miss, Aug. 9. —Unable to effect a compromise with Bishop W. W. Beckett, of the A. M. E. Church, whose home is in Brooklyn, N. Y., but who is in charge of Campbell College here, attorneys of W. H. McGee, president of the college, are going ahead with the $10,000 suit for shamder. President McGee charges Bishop Beckett removing from the presidency of the college around June giving him fifteen days to get off the grounds. In a letter to the State Supervisor of Education, Bishop Beckett is also said to have re-

N. C. PUTS 500,000 IN 86 NEW SCHOOLS
Raleigh, N. C. Aug. 9.—Eighty-six new public school buildings and five homes for teachers were erected at a total cost of $452,3947 for the Negroes of the State during the year ending June 30, 1923, according to a survey of work of the Division of Negro Education made public yesterday by N. C. Newbold, director of the division.
Private subscriptions made of
Private subscriptions made by the
Negroes themselves accounted for
17.4 per cent of the total cost of
construction and a slightly greater
amount was appropriated from the
Julius Rosenwalch fund. Public
funds provide 15 per cent of the
total, and subscriptions from white
people 1 per cent of the total invest-
ment in buildings.
Of the 4,752 colored teachers in the State, 2,405 have standard certificates.
In addition to the above, one-half million dollars, the State appropriation, spent for normal school buildings an additional $125,000 was given by the General Education Board. Five new public schools, having four-year course, were placed on the list and Shaw University was given a rating as a Class A college in the State.

And then Deal died. And on his deathbed, he appointed a committee of intelligent colored men to settle up his estate, informing them that Mr. O—had all of his contracts, deeds, and cash "safe" in Mr. O—safe. He had never trusted colored men, of course, and everything was
In Mr. O—'s hands, and he only wanted these colored men to do what he could not afford to ask Mr. Q—to do; go and get the stuff and fetch it out to his wife and children after he was buried.
The honorable committee went to Mr. O—, and one of them spoke: "Mr. O—, Dead jackson is dead." "Is that so?" replied the white banker. "Well, I'm sorry; he was a good nigger." "And before he died," continued the spokesman, "he asked us as a committee to get his property from you; he said no banker his money, and deeds." The white banker coolly replied: "And Deal's dead, and Deal said that? Well, Deal lied; I haven't a thing that belongs to him. But here ten dollars I will be glad to contribute toward his funeral expenses. He was a good nigger, Good-day."
Beckett Suit
ferred to President McGee as independent and student to the activities of the school, a poor manager, and a president who was involving the college in obligations it would be impossible to meet.
Bishop Beckett claimed that under the leadership of President McGee the standard of the college had become lower from the literary, local and moral standpoint.
President McGee in his suit declares the charges of the Bishop are knowingly malicious, defamatory and libelous, broadcasted to prevent him from securing employment in his vocation in the State of Mississippi.

ALIENS ARE OFFERED FARMS IN SOUTH
Southern White Farmers Short of Help Advertise Abroad for Foreign Workers
ONLY FEW RESPOND
ment of Europeans
"Free farms for all foreigners in South Carolina" is the advertisement that is being broadcasted over Europe in order to draw migration of white farmers to that section. Hit by the boll weevil and the Northward migration of Negro workers at the same time, Southern landowners are taking desperate steps to recruit their supply of workers and cultivate the weed-grown tenant farms formerly rented to Negroes.
So far few allens have taken advantage of this free land offer largely because many of the European workers who come to America for the first time find better wages in the industrial sector, and also be hot climate of the South is not the most attractive for those injured to the cold weather of Northern Europe.
The beginning of August the last summer month has not brought about any diminution of the Northward moving trainloads of Southern Norroes according to T. J. Entzwinger, Sr. builder and constructor of Columbia, who passed away this city in a motor crash stopped at the N. C. A. Thursday. Every Northward brings more, he declared.
Accompanying Mr. Entzwinger, were his son, Maco, T. E. M. Lewis, electrician, James Watson and Slim Miller, carpenters. Mr. Lewis is the grand lecturer for the Knights of Bydlius of South Carolina. The army reported bad stretches of mud in their 24 hour trip from South Carolina and Mr. J. Entzwinger dledelphia where they had contracted a work which they had contracted the cost of the year.

Fair Richmondites Attend
City's Most Exclusive
Schools
---
Richmond, Va., Aug. 9.—Through intermarriage and miscegement the white and black races are becoming so mixed here, the question is being asked, "Is white America to become a Negroid nation?" Dr. W. A. Plecker, white, head of the State Bureau of Vital Statistics, admits that the races are becoming rapidly mixed here and issued the following statement: "There are several communities in Virginia which have perplexed us greatly. One of these is in the southern end of Halifax county, extending over into North Carolina. Around Virginia is a tribe of people of mixed descent that gave us known to classify. They are swarthy in appearance, resembling closely neither the white nor the colored race."
"We were compelled to settle the question us to whether these people were white or black. They would not associate with Negroes and were not accepted by the whites. They were numerous enough to have a school of their own. Their pastor, a Baptist minister residing in North Carolina, states that they are "Croat Indians." An old citizen of the community gives another origin to them, dating back to the Civil War, who have compromised them the term 'Indian' and admit them thus to record.
FOUND IN OTHER COUNTIES
"In Armherb and Bedford counties is another community of the same kind, possibly of the same origin. One of these families of ten children, eight living, have some recorded as white and some as colored, depending upon the view of those who report. They are now obligating to the colored birth cards which my office sends out to mothers of children whose births are reported. The man who is listed as a colored voter and whose children are included in the colored school population is recorded in my office with his life in the list of white marriages.
BORN OUT OF WEDLOCK
"Illegitimate births probably furnish the largest number of mutuities, though not yet determined as the father's name is not demanded. We do, however, endeavor to secure a statement of his order."
Another angle from the problem, it is learned, grows out of the fact that very fair colored children are attending the most exclusive white schools in the city and are graduating there from with high honors, having been taught fine drawing and art, always closed to colored people have been attended by these white colored people who graduate with high honors.

Local Woman and Man Are Fleeced Out of $285 By the Old Pocketbook Game
Alleged Crook Returns To See Newly-Born Son and Is Arrested
Flim-flammers paid Baltimore a visit last week and as a result a man and a woman have gained some valuable experience, but lost $235. On July 28th, a neatly dressed young man with a fast-talking and smooth voice met Miss Eva Speaks on Light street, and after a short conversation the pair noticed a man drop a pocketbook. The smooth-talking young man picked it up, and it ended in the same old story. Miss Speaks was persuaded to go to the Calvert Bank and draw out $200 and turn it over to the young man on the promise that the $1,000 found in the pocketbook would be divided. That was the last she saw of him. Miss Speaks stated that she just did not know how the man gained her confidence so quickly, but it seemed that he used some supernatural power.
Sometimes later Detectives Dunn Porter and Murphy arrested Henry Ricks, who was identified as the smooth young man. Ricks, it was stated, has a record for flim-flamming from coast to coast.
Isaac Howard, 921 McCullah St. was flim-flammed the same way as he waited for a train at the Union Station. He lost $5 in the same old pocketbook game. Simultaneously William Sawyer, an alleged crook whose description tallied with that given by Howard, left the city.
This week when he became the father of a son, the temptation to see the baby became so strong that he returned and was trapped by detectives at his home at 204 Lewis street. He has been identified by Howard and with Ricks is being held for the action of the Grand Jury charged with the robbery.
"Y" Announces New Physical Secretary
Executive Secretary S. S. Booker announced today the appointment of Mr. C. Rhoades, assistant physician secretary of the New York "Y" as physical secretary of the local branch. Mr. Rhoades, whose home is in Indianapolis, is expected to report on September 1st. The position has been vacant for sometime
Tibbs' Trial Postponed
The trial of Frank W. Tibbs, charged with a number of embebzements while connected with a Christmas savings club and insurance company sometime ago, was postponed in Part 2 of the Criminal Court Wednesday. Mrs. Josephine Tibbs, wife of the accused, was present in the court room, having herself preferred a charge of non-support against her husband. Because of a lack of certain papers claimed to be in possession of Mrs. Tibbs and wanted by counsel for the defense, the trial was reset for Wednesday of next week.
Through and error, it was stated in last week's AFRO-AMERICAN that the public summer schools would close last Friday. They will not close until

Two Held Up On Hanover St. Bridge
Samuel Parker, 623 N. Carlton street, and Walter Brown, $22 Warner street, were held up and robbed on Hanover street bridge, Friday night as they were returning home.
According to the story told the police of the Southern station, a white man stopped them on the bridge and at the point of a pistol relieved them of $20.08, a gold watch and a car check.
Later John Stugmansky, white, arrested by Officer Kiefer, was identified as the man who did the robbing. He is being held.
27 YOUNGSTERS OFF TO 10 DAYS CAMP
Steamer Starlight Takes Firs Group of Y. M. C. A. Boys To Brown's Grove
T. H. SMITH IN CHARGE
Three Other Assistants To Direct Boys While They "Rough It"
The first Y. M. C. A. Boys' Camp got underway. Wednesday at Brown's Grove, a short distance from the munitiontaoincenfwypif when the youngsters under the direction of Thomas H. Smith Boys Work Secretary, of the Y. arrived with their baggage.
The youngsters, many of whom are enjoying their first experience camping out, came down on the Steamer Starlight. Each one was laden with the necessary equipment which included a bathing suit and a combination aluminium plate and pan in which he will cook and eat his meals. Some thirty cots are arranged in a big canvas tent and here the boys are to make their home for the next days.
Assisting Mr. Smith, who is Camp Director, are Chus, Pinderhuges, director of activity, Gordon Widgeon, director of camp tactics, and L. E. Griffin, in charge of the commissary.
Each boy is paying $5 for his stay in camp, which detracts a part of its cost. Captain Brown is offering the site tree and the re-mainder of the detach will be made up in other ways. Three times this number of boys could have been brought on this outing provided they had been sufficient accommodations for them.
Boys registered include:
Carlton Prescoe, Howard Lee, Lesse Railey, Ralph H. Herndon, Randolph C. Hinton, Eyreett Sounders, Eugene West, Roland Henson, Donald S. Young, Charence Williams, Walter G.

LITTLE PLAYGROUND SPACE FOR THE "HI"
Each Pupil Will Have Littl More Than 16 Sq. Ft., Says Chief Engineer Perring
BUILDING IS UNDER WAY
Contractor Must Have Million Dollar Plant Ready by August,1924
Due to its location and the high price of surrounding real estate the new high school will not have sufficient playground space according to City Engineer Perring.
Mr. Perring's statements concerning the playground space and the Colored High School were made recently before the conference of city planners held in the city. In part they are as follows: "A Colored High School, is a rather startling thing South of the Mason and Dixon line. The building has cost about $1,500,000 altogether and will house a colored school population of about 2,000. It is in a downtown section and we have violated a standard for playground space, in that we probably will have not more than 10 or 15 feet per pupil.
"In another downtown school where the site alone cost $150,000 we could not have a great deal of playground space, but have provided a place to play on the roof."
"Another interesting feature about this building is the fact that it is located in a district which has been zoned as second commercial. In course of time residential population will be forced out of the district and we have designed the building so that although it serves admirably today as a school it can be easily converted into a manufacturing building. "In the Northwest section of the city we have a junior high school that we are really proud of, housing a school population of 2,000 on a 12-acre site. "There is ample room for all kinds of school games, and every other form of play healthy youngsters should have."

Voted For Coolidge
Jerry Hawkins And Warner McGuinn Among Those To Cast Ballots
On the ballot at Chicago in 1920 that place Calvin Coolidge on the Republican ticket as Harding's running mate two colored Marylanders cast their votes.
One was Warner T. McGuinn, who was delegate from the Fourth District, and the other was Jeremiah Hawkins of Brentwood, who represented the Fifth District. The vote was an unanimous one, all of the sixteen votes from this State going to Coolidge.
SCIENTIST WIDGEON IS 73 YEARS OLD
SCIENTIST WIDGEON IS 73 YEARS OLD
Says He Expects To Be Useful Many More Years
At his home in Fairfield, John W. Widgeon, the aged caretaker of the Maryland Academy of Sciences, is enjoying a month's vacation.
"I was 73 years of age the other day," he told a reporter of the Arno-American, "but feel like there are many more years of activity before me. It is true that I have not been on expeditions to get specimens for the academy for the past several years, but I am keeping up my interest in things scientific."
He is regarded as an expert on the flora and fauna of Maryland and has gathered much of the material that the academy now possesses. He also went to the West Indies, gathered coral reef and mounted it just like it appears at the academy. He is a chemist and taxidermist.
CORBIN JOKED TOO MUCH. SAYS BROTHER
So Telegram To Salme, Va. Brought No Help In Time of Need
AFRO'S AID ASKED
This Newspaper Called In To Find Out If Corbin Is Ill
In Aesop's Fables is a story of the Shepherd who in a joking way called for help so often that when he was in actual need of it and called aloud for aid, none of his neighbors believed he needed assistance.
Quite similar is the case of Walter Corbin, an employment agent, 1339 W. Lafayette avenue. For sometime Walter was seriously ill at his home and sent his brother, Howard Corbin, of Salem, Va., a telegram asking him to come to his assistance.
Did Howard come to Baltimore?
He did not.
Instead he sent to the AFRO-America the following telegram:
"Editor, Afro: Kindly inform me whether my brother, Walter Corbin, 1330 W. Lafayette street, is ill or not, as he jokes so much. Save expense."
A reporter of the Afro-AMERICAN who went to the home of Walter Corbin on Lafayette avenue was informed by a young woman, presumably Mrs. Walter Corbin, that he had been ill, but was now out. Later Mr. Corbin called up the Afro office wishing to know why his brother had not telegraphed him?

AFRICAN MISS
HELD IN LONDON
Dr. Boylc Urges State Department To Let Down
The Bars
A cable gram to Dr. E. Mayfield Boyle, 425 Caroline street, on Monday announced that his niece, Miss Edna Elliott, age 17, of Freetown Sierra, Leone, West Africa, is being detained at London by the American Consul, who refuses to vise her passport enabling her to sail for New York.
Miss Elliott is en route to Baltimore and the home of her niece with the hope of completing her high school and college education in this country. Dr. Boyle, who immediately got in touch with the local authorities, found out that the quota of African immigrants was filled for this month and for this reason Miss Elliott is being detained in London.
Through Phil H. Brown, commissioner of conciliation, and other authorities in Washington, Dr. Boyle then took up the case with the hope of getting Miss Elliott released in time to begin her school work in September.

Vacancies In Many Fields To Be Filled By United States Civil Service
OPEN TO COLORED
All Government Positions Open to All Citizens Under Civil Service Law
There are literally hundreds of vacancies in local and field departments of the U. S. Government that must be filled as a result of examinations to be held in August and September according to announcements.
While in the past colored applicants have only taken examinations for clerical positions all of the positions listed under civil service are open to them and could be obtained if they would make themselves eligible and used a little push. This applies to the many technical positions and apprenticeships in various scientific lines as well as the more common positions.
In fact the constant changes occurring because of promotions and vacancies brought about by those leaving the service for high salaried positions which their experience with the Government have fitted them, causes a constant demand for applicants, and there is no doubt but that many youths coming from our technical and industrial schools could pass the tests if they applied.
Some Coming Exams.
Besides an examination for clerks in the various departments to be held Aug. 18, there are a number of other positions requiring more specific training, many of which pay high salaries.
An examination for Assistant in Marketing Specialist carrying a salary from $1620 to $2400 held August 5th. There is another if September.
A Junior Aid and Laboratory Apprentice requiring an equivalent of high school physics for the Bureau for this will be held August 18. By promotion the salary may develop from $540 to $3,000 per year.
This position offers an opportunity for developing into an expert in many lines.
Other examinations to be held August 15th or early in September are: Assistant Animal Keeper High School and Primary Teachers for the Philippine and Indian Service, Teachers in Home Economics for field work through the country, Junior Assistant in Industrial School, High School and women, Architectural Draftsman and Photo Engravers for departments in Washington and other cities.
Vacancies In Veteran's Bureau
There are many vacancies to be filled in the Veteran's Bureau. Reconstruction Aids and Assistants in Physio-Therapy and Occupational Therapy tests will be held throughout the country. These high sounding words really refer to physical trainers and instructors in vocations used to rehabilitate disabled veterans. An Assistant Hospital Librarian is also needed. In the Department of Internal Revenue many Special Agents are wanted for which tests will be required. Special covered men are already employed by this department and any one may become eligible with proper qualifications. Special Agents are paid from $2,250 to $3,000 per year. August 21st examinations will be held for Social Workers in the Public Health Service and for Matron and Seamstresses in the Indian Service.
On Sept. 19th, an examination will be held to qualify an apprentice in Fish Culture, and a Junior Laboratorian in Bacteriology. Any of these places could be filled by young men with the scientific training received in our first grade colleges.

Professor Fudge Says
"Blues" he has an invisible chorus made up of stockholders. The stockholders have let out a terrible squawk, in fact they did not sing the "Blues" they squawked the "Blues." Everybody has had something to say about the project except E. C. Brown, of Philadelphia, the promoter. Now I get an underground whisper from Philadelphia. It appears the theatre business has sourced on Mr. Brown's stomach and he is now making other arrangements. Mr. Brown has gotten all of his theatre in all of except Baltimore and as soon as he can he will undoubtedly shake this one off. Evidently he is convinced he does not know the business, but it is maintained he does know the Banking and Real Estate Business.

"ITS NO S
Going to Heaven
Bishop W. D. Chappelle, of the A. M. E. Church in South Carolina, has this one believe I go to Heaven easier and better from the South, for there is less vice in the South into which Negroes can engage. It is true and no one can deny it, that most of our people who go North fall into miserable dens and haunts of vice and forsake the Church entirely."
I almost agree with the confused Bishop in some of the details of his remarks and in others I am forced to disagree. Insofar as getting to Heaven is concerned, I am not in a position to state whether the Prelate can get to Heaven from the North or the South. God only knows about this. Being a bishop is not necessarily a passport to the etheral regions. I can vouch for that as Bishop Chappelle will find out how he receives his destination. If Bishop Chappelle makes a calculation before leaving these parts and does not have his sins washed away, he will find many bishops working as coal passers. On the other hand, if the Bishop stops putting out lies like the above one attributed to him and gets his house in order he may finally sit near the throne of grace, where he will also find many bishops priests and deacons.
In making the statement the Bishop confuses me by saying, "I believe I can get to Heaven easier and better from the South." If he means he can leave "the" easier and better from the "South," then we both believe the same thing.
The world knows they can start you on that last journey in the South with more facility than they can in any other section. Either with fire, rope, the shot-gun or dozens of other ways invented by the blood-thirsty "crackers." In the twinkling of an eye they will help and assist you to leave these parts. The Bishop seems to be thoroughly convinced of this fact, but is misleading in his statement of the destination. If he if the good Bishop we pick himself out most any insignificant white man in South Carolina and call him a liar, he can easily prove to the rest of the people who don't believe his statement, with what dispatch they can send you to the "Happy Hunting Ground" in the South.
Bishop Turner Is Needed
The A. M. E. Church is the greatest organization among Negroes in the world. It is a smooth well-oiled piece of machinery. It has produced great men and women and its organization and administration is almost perfect. It has been a source of strength and comfort to the "dark meat" upon this continent and has eminent men who have stood out for the right in any place, anywhere, and at any time.
The late Bishop Turner of Georgia, was a shining example of the Christian courage and tenacity contained in this great institution. When Bishop Turner had anything to say along racial lines, that would not tickle the ears of the white South, he did not come to New York or Boston to make his statement. Right in Georgia, the "hot bed" of everything wrong, he would belch up his remarks and did not care who heard them. It was he who would deny any false allegations made against the race and it was he who would defy the alleger.
If Bishop Turner were living now I would call his attention to a remark recently passed by one of the A. M. E. ministers a man even below the calibre of Bishop Chappelle of South Carolina. The Rev. J. J. Morant, of Vicksburg, Miss., says, "I am telling the Negroes to stay in the South and call Negro "raplers," but think they should be caught- unmanned and burned, after being condemned." Can you imagine this coming from a minister of the Gospel? He does not want the law to take his course he would rather see the culprit un-manned and burned. There is only one thing for the A. M. E. Church to do in this case that Bible out of this brother's hand and give him a swift kick. It looks to me as if Bishop Hurst or Dr. A. L. Gaines or some of the big men in the Church should pwrises on J. J. Morant of Vicksburg, Miss.

I understand negotiations are underway or have been completed for the presentation of that fantastic theatrical production known as "How Come" at the Gayetty Theatrically the public will want to know aure, on Baltimore Street. Nat how come the show to be at the Gayetty instead of at the Douglas. I can give no reason other than the Empty House the musical. They tell me the "How Come" bunch carries some cruel music, some girls who are sharp as a tack and comedians who are as keen as to amuse us as Major Moton was to get to New York when the Ku Klux Klan strolled across the campus of Tuskegee.

Too much artistic temperament got James Curry, 1307 Fremont avenue, into a peek of trouble Sunday.
He, with two men and two women, were arrested Saturday night when police raided the home of Mrs. Mary McGruder, 1307 N. Fremont avenue. Curry was found lying on the bed in the McGruder apartment.
"Judge," he said, "she asked me to come down there to paint a sign."
"$1 and costs," said the magistrate, "too much artistic temperament. Next time get an easel and paints." Others find along with Curry were Miss Elsie McGruder, 1307 N. Fremont; Joseph Jones, 2119 McCullah street; Alfred Bradley, 1307 N. Fremont avenue.

morning and the officers found

He told Magistrate Ranft that

"What, carrying a $45 automatic
to protect 32 cents? Fine you $50

Considerable time was taken in untangling the domestic affairs of Paul Polosychsi, white, Mrs. Polosychsi, Mrs. Helen Woods and Joseph Matthews in the Sunday morning session at the Northwestern Police Station. The Polosychsi's and Mrs. Helen Woods live in the same house at 1702 Moster street and they court Matthews were hated into court following a message in which charges of having concealed weapons disorderly conduct and disturbing the peace were made. According to the testimony at the hearing it seemed that Mrs.
Woods met Matthews at the block carnival and invited him to her home without telling him that she was married and that her husband weighed considerably more than Matthews. Matthews accepted the invitation and an had to walk to the romantic evening when Mrs. Woods hearing familiar footsteps suddenly left him "with the bag to hold."
In the spirit of "every man for himself" Matthews in making his exit through the hall, thought up and "down and instead of peach the tree found himself facing Mrs. Polosychsi in her hall on the floor above.
She called Mr. Polosyschi and he with a pistol persuaded Matthews to leave the building without taking the formality to properly arrange his clothes. Then the officers came and asked him to explain At the hearing the explanation given by Mrs. Wood that she took Matthews in because he was a friend of her husband, was stoutly denied by the men in the case and being the one $25 and costs for being the one in the trouble while the others went free.

MCGUINN ANNOUNCES
HE WILL NOT RUN
Former City Councilman Endorsed for State Senate Says He Is Out of
EMERSON ALSO DECLINES
Lawson N. Duffin Is Endorsed for 14th Ward Executive In His Place
Warner T. McGutnam, former City Councilman declined the invitation of the club to run as a Republican candidate for the State Senate. "An increasing law practice all of my time" Mr. McGutnam said, and added I am out of politics for good, for next week's paper I will have a statement explaining my position."
At the meeting of the 14th Ward Republican Club Thursday night Walter Emerson declined to run for election as ward executive. The Club then endorsed L. Duffin, N. Duffin, 112 David Hill avenue a attorney, and well known in business and fraternal circles.
Mr. Duttn filed his papers with the supervisors of elections at the Court House on Monday.
Political leaders in the Fourth District are still hoping to find candidates to run for the legislature. Registration in this district, it is said, entitles the race to three or four men on the ticket.
With the primaries about five weeks off, no colored candidate for the Legislature has appeared. Warner T. McGuinn has been mentioned but has not filed as yet. The declination of Dr. Wm. H. Wright to run in response to a petition of men and women removed what is generally regarded as a good candidate. "Farce" has been lying low and saying nothing. "I am looking the situation over," is his only comment.
Dr. James A. White has been urged to enter the lists, but is fighting shy of the suggestion. "I am too busy practicing law," is the way Roy Bond turns down the offer he throw his hat into the ring. "Too busy selling men and women's clothes," says Samuel L. Burton. "I am willing to help any good candidates," benevolently says Louis Birkegg would not get on a ticket this time with W. J. Guber.

This is the second part of a work to be completed in three volumes. Its thesis is a new one; that Negroes from Africa visited America before Columbus and left their mark here. This second volume concerns with each chapter the African civilization as seen in the introduction of cotton, tobacco and shell money.
I wish that I might be able clearly to understand Wiener's argument, but this is impossible because this very learned scholar cannot present it clearly himself. His book is for experts who can disentangle salient from a mass of evidence, a mass that shows a learning prological in its
Leo Wiener is professor of Stavic Languages at Harvard University, and in his first volume, he related his discovery of African influence in the language of the Portuguese grammar of American languages, he came upon a number of words that study told him were corruptions or adaptations of words used by the Negroes in Africa especially by the Mundingues. He told me that especially of material signs of African influence, there can be little doubt that in some things African influence was exerted before Columbus. Probably the Mundingues first reached America in the mid-16th century, the Portuguese explorers. The Mundingues were a sturdy rite, and if we look on the map we can see that the trip from Western Africa to Northern South America was not an impossible one, though a courage to take in a rance. I remember seeing in Norway the open boat, a large dory, in which the Norseman is reputed to have made his early discovery of North America. At least the African came over milder water.
That they did, come Professor Wiener does not doubt. He shows us, among other things, two pictures, one of an African, another of an Indian. This is indeed an extraordinary similarity between the two. One is reminded of the interesting chapters in *Brown* and *Grawal* concerning the close Association of Negro and Indian in this country. Wiener has a great deal to say about tobacco, relating the story of Nicotine from the sixteenth century. It was brought by the Arabs to the Negroes and they in turn brought it to the Indians, "possibly a century before American society," and it was used only by the priests in their rites. In the wampum with which the Indians first traded with the Americans we again see an African origin. The Indians were puffed with cinnamon bride at this precedence we would note that Proof. Wiener finds that he got his civilization from the Arabs, those marvelous folk who have been consistently maligned by the Christians through the centuries.
I have spoken of the learning evinced in this book. I counted in the world index references to 12 European and 33 African languages, to 13 American and 23 African dialects, and then stopped, not through, only tired. One of my friends, who is a historian, tells me, that it is dangerous to base historical research on seeming similarity of language and that Wiener is looked upon as somewhat hasty in so doing.
He answers this criticism in his preface where he speaks of archaeologists who "insist upon denying all but the archaeological evidence and shower upon an objective investigator a veritable deluge of abuse. We are sympathetic with the "objective investigator and trust that the Mandingoes did bring good things to this continent, when they came here of their own free will."
When the evidence is more complete it will be an interesting story for colored children, that of these brave black sailors who dared to cross the Atlantic and who carried thither cotton and tobacco that their descendants, later unwillingly dragged here, were to plow and reap.

Atlantic City, N. L. Aug. 9. - The resort kiddies have had a wonderful time this week. On Tuesday twelve of the churches of the city went on the annual Union Sunday-school Picnic at the hotel where they spent the day and the ideal surroundings of this amusement park. The picnic was postponed from the week previous on account of rain. Tickets for the big charity concert and reception which will be staged by Ford Dahney and the other artists have been placed on sale at Bourne's Pharmacy, 1801 Arctic Avenue, Bailey's Pharmacy, 702 Arctic Avenue Hotel Wright, Hotel Hall and Brook's cigar store at 1118 Arctic Avenue.

This orchestra is perhaps the most famous band of colored musicians in the country.

"Jim-Crow" Railway Law Before Interstate Commerce Commission for Its Interpretation
SEPARATE CAR LAW INVALID IN KENTUCKY
Courts Held Passenger Could Not Be Jim Crowed Between Charleston & Cincinnati
UP TO COMMISSION
Must Say Whether Railroad roads Can Segregate In States Which Have No
Washington, Aug. 9—The validity of "Jim Crow" rules on certain Southern railroads before the Interstate commerce Commission and that body will shortly rule whether they are legal.
Joseph P. Evans in March, 1922, bought a ticket in Charleston, W. Va., for Cincinnati.
Boarding a C. & O. train, he rode in a regular passenger coach with whites until the train reached the city, where he was asked to move forward into another coach that was divided, half and half, between baggage and Negroes.
Evans refused, saying he knew of the law or rule requiring him to move. The conductor informed him the road had a rule, though it was secret and unpublished, requiring the segregation of Negroes from trains travelling through Kentucky.
Evans still refused and later was taken into custody by a railroad policeman remanded from the court before the following day. The court uphold Evans, declaring he had committed no offense. Evans thereafter pleaded guilty to misuse of the Interstate Commerce Commission for refund of $5.52 fare he had paid, and brought before the commission the whole question of the misuse of the segregation of passengers by color without the authority of law. Hearings have been held before the commission in which Evans was charged with a serious evidence in their own self. Evans was represented by an array of Negro counsel. His attorneys contended that the road's rule was not violated, and never been filled with the commission, which has decreed that all railroad rules must be in his files, approved by it, before they are
Additional arguments presented in a brief just filed with the commission by Evans' attorneys, subsequent to the hearings, contend that the rule is unreasonable, the rule is unreasonable, preventing it forever from being valid. Without apparent reason, Evans' attorneys contend, the rule is enforced only in Virginia and Maryland and not in West Virginia or Ohio.
Say Rule Is Unfair
The brief further states that insular as accommodations provided for Negroes are unequal to those for whites, such a rule is unfair. Evans contends that where whites are permitted whole cars, Negroes are permitted only half or quarter accommodations and not be cramped in half-and-half cars. It is regarded as extremely probable that the commission, as a result of the Evans' proceeding, will formulate a program for "Jim" Negroes to be admitted to the course of roads required or desired to cut them into effect.

THE BETTER SOUTH SPEAKS
Greensboro News: "Few events of recent years have been more disrespectful to the threats of lawlessness at Tuskegee Ala. no account of the appointment of Negro medical officers at the Negro rehabilitation hospital erected there by the Government.
"If the hospital were for white veterans, or if it were proposed to put white employees under the compulsion to work together different. But the place has been built and maintained for Negro soldiers at a great Negro hospital in the world why it should interfere in any way with white people; and consequently there is no reason in the world why white people should interfere with it.
"The only possible explanation of the protest is a discreditable one, when the protesting are opposed to the knowledge and skill of Negro doctors. It is not reported that the veterans, the men who are protesting, are in violation. The protest has been made by whites and by whites alone.
"Is this a true reflection of the spirit of the South? Are we determined to bar the Negro out of the learned professions, even when he has no idea of attempting to practice law or to race? Are we going to deny to a man on account of the color of his skin opportunity to make the best of the talents God has given him? If so, then the worst that our enemies have ever said of us is: if we take that attitude, then we are proved guilty of harboring a desire to resort to the worst features of human slavery. * * * * *
"The Daily News cannot believe that. But if it is not true, then the attempt to use the "fucking" hospital should be repudiated vigorously by Southern public opinion. Doubless the attempt will be fruitless. The Government cannot conceivably yield to the attempt of its own good name, the attempt should be hotly denied by the South.
"The attempt in itself will do no great harm, for the world understands perfectly that the South, like every other section, has its due proportion of mercury and always he controlled by the decent and intelligent element. The danger is that the country may believe that this outrage is supported by the better element, at least in the sense of such impression that the South should condemn the outbreak unsparingly."

Washington, D. C., Aug. 9—In a survey of industrial conditions, Phil H. Brown, of the Department of Labor reports that in the manufacture of cotton, Massachusetts pays more than any other state more than any southern state. As to the cost of living, Mr. Brown's report shows that food stuffs are 24.8 per cent higher in Charleston, S. C., and 32.5 per cent higher in Houston, Texas, than in Chicago. This means that people need for their work in the South and have to work for their cats.

Detective Puzzle
The diagram represents a valuable jewel placed on a cross kept count of the jewels it follows; He started from A and counted to B. Then from A to C, and finally from A to D. Each gave the number pine. A thief, knowing this, stole two of the jewels and changed the setting so the count remained the same. How did he do it?
These Stars Can Spell
---
---
Insert the nine letters, G, N, N
G, R, R, U, U, in place of the nine stars shown above. If these letters are correctly placed the nine stars will form a "word square." The three letters of the top row will spell a word; and the same three letters will be spelled by the three letters of the vertical line to the left. The next third horizontal and vertical lines will form the same words as the second and third rows respectively.

"Are you a privileged member?" inquired one of the doorkeepers of the United States Senate of a stranger who attempted to pass into the chamber occupied by that august body. "What do you mean by such a man?" asked the stranger. The reply was "A Governor, an ex-member of Congress or a foreign minister." The stranger said: "I am a minister." From the country, "If you please?" asked the officer. "For you the court of Heaven, sir," replied the stranger, looking very grave and pointing upwards. "This government holds no intercourse with that power at present," was the answer. The stranger bowed and retired.—Percy Offer, 1529 E. Madison St.
A lawyer was arguing with a physician over the relative merits of their respective professions. "I don't say that all lawyers are villains," said the doctor, "but you will have to admit that your professions don't make angels of you." "Nobody knows," she added, "you doctors certainly have the best of us there."—Pattie E. Holloway, 1405 Myrtle Ave.
One day a collector went to a lady's house to collect some money. After he had been there a while, he said, "I had a small something." He had sat at the collector and said, "That's none of your business."—Myrtle Elithson, 1702 Millin St.
Once there was a man he had a son and he died. Every day the father would go to the grave and pray for the Lord to let him see his son's face once more. The grave digger dig a grave right beside the son's grave and put a white sheet over himself. The father came to pray for the Lord to let him see his son's face out of the grave in which it frightened the father. Then the father began to say "That will do my son I see you now." But the white sheet kept raising. "That will do my son. That's the reason why you are dead today because you are so d— hard-headed." — N. Nelson, 1704 Mullikin St.

Clean Hair In Summer
"Watch out for June, July and August! Of the 12 months of the year these three are hardest on the hair," says Jesse Ogilive, hair specialist.
"The wind, sun and water, to say nothing of the dust and dirt, are so injurious to the scalp that the fall of the year is likely also to mean the fall of the hair.
"Get over the idea that your hair brush is a dressing-table accessory, when you are not using it, keep it in a drawer, hidden from dust, and keep it clean by frequent washings."
BRUSH DAILY
"And let the daily brushings become a part of your beauty routine.
"As your brush, use an upward movement, which loosens the scalp and stimulates the circulation. See that at least half of your strokes really get to the scalp.
"Two or three times a week give yourself a treatment with some good tonic suited to your scalp. Apply it on a bit of absorbent cotton and put it in well. This is cleansing and nourishing."
Message is beneficial to the scalp only when properly applied, she maintains. Here is her method: "Begin at the tape of the neck, press your thumbs well into the structure at the base of the skull and work carefully around the neck to the ears. The scalp should be fitted and pressed and knotted in circular sweeps of the longer tips and palms until a pale pink hue assumes the restoration of lively cir
SHAMPOO SELDOM
"Don't shampoo your hair too often, for if you have a tendency toward oily hair this will only aggravate the condition. Do not try to remove the oil in your hair or dry shampoo the oil clog the pores and cause it worse.
mute
After motoring or being exposed to dust, brush your hair carefully and remove as much dust as you can with a soft linen towel.
"The hair requires much more care in summer than in winter. But if cared for in summer it is bound to thrive and have nothing to do but grow and become luxurious during the cooler seasons."
Games For Younger Children
HAVE YOU SEEN MY SHEEP?
(12 or more players.)
Players form in a circle. One player is chosen as "shepherd." He goes around the outside, taps a player on the back, and asks, "Have you sheep?"
you see the player asks, "How was he dressed?" The "shepherd" then tells something of the dress of one of the players in the circle, as "He wears a blue cout and low shoes." The player tries to guess who is being described. Then the guesses correctly the "shepherd" says "Yes," and the guesser chases the one
describe.
Both must run on the outside of the circle. If the chaser catches the runner before the runner has returned to his place, the chaser becomes "shepherd." if he does not, the runner becomes "shepherd."
Notice that the shepherd does not
Deserted by the father of her infant twins and peniless, Mrs. Hester Smith, a little 21-year-old mother, rolled both of these babies in a carriage a distance of two miles beneath a scorching sun to Johns Hopkins Hospital. Although facing a struggle to support herself and the children she brought into the world, by work that would drive many hard-muscelled men to despair, she did her duty cheerfully. THAT IS LOVE.
that same day three women, urged by the instinct of unselfish care for the unfortunate, went out to the House of Correction at Jessup to help safeguard the future of a new-born baby they had never seen. THAT IS CHRISTIANITY.

Knocks on the Women
Knock No. 12, Series A)
At 16 a girl is a woman. If still unmarried at 25, she is a girl.
She will face death without a tremor, yet will scare at the sight of a mouse.
The only time she does anything is because she doesn't know why she does it.
Only time she does what you expect her to do is when you expect her to do what you do not expect her to do.
The only man who understands a woman is the man who understands he does not understand her and lets it go at that.
—ONE WHO KNOWS.
A 3-In-1 Woman
I am a widow of 30 with three children. I am a teacher and am trying to keep young in mind and body in order to be a pat. Father than a grandmother to my children.
And my Apollo has arrived. Or, I should say, I discovered him when came to this out-of-the-way New Mexico town to teach and rear my little brood "far from the maddening crowd."
And he is an Apollo—large, of perfect physique, handsome, with a keen, enviable mind which is rapidly advancing him into the world of things that really matter.
One evening, after we had been friends for a long time, we were looking at a magazine article by Elinore Glyn on women. She divided them into three classes: neuter women mother women and lover women.
Musing, I remarked carelessly, to wonder which I am.
Gently he drew me to him and putting his arms about me said: 'The Blessed Trinity! Neuter when it comes to going before a school board on business matters and making them see things our way. A perfect mother and homemaker. And last, but not least, the deepest finest sweetheart in the whole world. I didn't know much a perfect type of womanhood existed. What I had seen of life before you came had made me critical I have always maintained that a home and children would be fine if one could dispense with the inconvenience of having a wife. But you've changed all that. I love you! I must have you! I'm going to have you! And I didn't mind this bit of "man-made stuff" in the least. It was good to belong to this virile modern god.
Besides being "The Blessed Trinity" of women I consider it no small compliment for a man to undertake the job of fathering three small children. You can guess the rest when I tell you life is one glad, sweet song in spite of the fact I am very, very busy teaching school, visiting dressmakers and studying (with him) railroad and steamship folders advertising to the nationalASKA, Hawaii, etc. School will be out in a few days and the children are going to spend the summer with grandma.

Heart Problems
Answered by Annie Roney
Peggy — It would be much better for you to have a chaperon at public dances. Don't dance with or speak to anyone unless you have been properly introduced.
Worried — Try to win your husband's love back. If you truly love him, and go about it in a clever way, you can succeed.
Affer 'Em — Perhaps the young men realize that you are trying to get a husband, and that scures them off. Don't be so cold-blooded in this matter and you will have better luck.
Spark Plug — You will never make a mistake if you follow your mother's advice. Do not consent to marry a young man you do not love and explain to him that, since you are not engaged it is unfair of him to expect you to give up your other friends.
Dot-Invite your friends to your home and give them just as good a time as you know how. It is not the furnishings of a house which make it attractive; it is the spirit with which visitors are welcomed and entertained. Be very cordial when you invite the girls to your home and show them what pleasure it gives you to have them there. This should overcome your difficulties.

Going down into the cellar, we found the lights of the two gas jets out, but the gas on in full.

Embarrassing Moment
$1 PRIZE WINNER
When I was a youngster I always envied my playmates because they could whistle through their fingers. Although tried and tried I did not manage once because I became 12 years of age. One Sunday I stayed for church after Sabbath School and as time was so long I put my fingers to my mouth. As I had a habit of doing and blew. Instead of the gentle swish that there was, I filled blast that cheek and re-echeed from ceiling to floor. No one was more startled than I. Although I was burnt up with embarrassment I had at last done what my playmates had done.

Creamed Squash
This is different from the ordinary creamed, mashed squash we generally see. Take young, white, scalloped squash that are tender and haven't developed seeds. Do not peel them, but cut the squash into small 1-inch pieces and boil until tender in the soup pot. Make a rich sauce of 1 cup cream, a lump of butter blended with a teaspoon of flour, and add salt and pepper.—MRS. O. A. BUDD. (
Favorite Cucumber Pickles
This is my favorite recipe for canning cucumber pickles. Gather the cucumbers early in the plumping, in the vessel and with salt and leave them until noon, then pour scalding water over the cucumbers and let them stand until cold.

Ways To Keep Well
By Dr. R. S. Copeland
F. G. N. Q.-Is it always necessary to have an operation to cure goiter?
A-No. For further particulars re-state your question and inclose a self-addressed, stamped envelope.
Constant Reader. Q-My daughter, 16 years of age, has the habit of bling her nails. Tell me what to do to overcome this.
A-Your daughter must use her will power. Paint the fingers with tincture of asafetida.
Miss A. L. I have a very bad breath, and I have tried many remedies, but none seem to help me.
A-This may be due to constipation, indigestion, nasal catarrh, diseased toes or mucous teeth. You should first find out what is causing the trouble in your case and then suitable treatment can be outlined.
H. R. Q—Is very high blood pressure serious in a man of 53 years? Will treatment do this condition good or may it be neglected with impunity? A—High blood pressure is very serious. Discretion in the diet must be observed constantly, and the kidneys and bowels must be kept eliminated properly. Tea, coffee and alcohol must be eliminated from the diet. You should be under the care of your physician.

Carter Hurls Fine Game As Team Mates Hammer Henderson From Hill and Win, 8-2
JINX STILL AFTER SYKES
Spitballist Is Chased In Curtain Tilt Before Rain Ends It In Second Inning
The Black Sox again demonstrated their return to form last Sunday by taking the Bacharach Giants into camp in the opening tilt 8-2, before 3500 fans. Carter was sent to the dishpan for the locals with Clarke receiving, and he had the Seasiders standing on their side for the most part, when they came to the plate. They collected a total of nine hits off him but they were kept so scattered that they were as harmless as a game of croquet. In addition, he was given fine support by his teammates with the exception of Ford and Wilson, the former making two miscues and the latter, one.
These however, were not costly, and had Carter not walked Lundy in the fourth who scored on White's single, and Clarke had not made a bad peg to catch Lockhart off second-bane, the latter going to third and scoring on Cummings' single, he would have had a shutout.
Henderson whom the Sox had been so kind to a few Sundays previous as to practically give him the game was again sent to the hill in the first game Manager Jackson bobbed the ball in a passion that the lamp of love the Sox had for him was still trimmed and burning. But alas! he was mistaken.
The Sox showed that they had turned traitor by hammering him for four hits and four runs in the very first inning. In the second after two more hits, a free ticket and two runs, Mr. Henderson was hoisted from the pan and Lockhart sent a rampage. A single by Smith scored Wilson before the side, was retired.
Lockhart was master of the situation the balance of the way, for although he was found for five hits afterward he kept them so scattered that they netted only one more run, and besides, he turned seven back by the strikeforce route. Wilson was the batting star, hitting safely four times out of four trips, one of which was a double. In addition feature was a hot double-play in the first inning when Carter caged Cummings' foul bunt and doubled Downs off first base.
RAIN ENDS DEWFALL
The second game was ended by rain in the second inning. Sykes had been held back for this game doubtless in the belief that old man finx who has been on his trail continually, would think he wasn't going to work, and thus would go elsewhere.
But finx was right on the job as usual, and after the teeth doctor had turned back the visitors in the first inning scoreless, he was lifted in the second after walking three men, yielding two hits and making a wild peg to first, all of which toil. Mitchell took up the burden at this point just as the rain brought hostilities to a close. Harper and Stone were the visiting battery of this session.

Young Foster outpitted Branham the Tate's ace hurler holding the latter team to four hits. It is rumored that the young hurler will be seen in the uniform of his brother's American Giants.

London, Eng., Aug. 9—West Indian cricket team, composed of Nogro and white natives of the Caribean islands, has been touring England for the past few months.
Sports Through Jim Watson's Eyes
Since Harry Harristone has been back with the Black Sox, the team is picking up. They won one game and tied another Sunday, although the umpire called the second game when there was plenty of light to play. Jupe Pluvius has agreed hereafter only to allow one game on Sundays. Monday again the Bacharachs fell before the shoots of Mahoney.
Carter, tho, was the cat's pajamas Sunday, and the Bacharachs could not see his curves at all. Since the jinx has been after Dr. Sykes, it may be that Carter is to prove the real elevator to lift the Sox out of the last division. Incidentally, Dr. Sykes got his again when he tried to pitch the second game. A barrage of hits drove him to the showers.
The other stars of Sunday's game were "Babe" Wilson, the mighty home run hitter, and "Blue Streak" Kemp, the fast outfielder. Wilson got a hit every time he came to the bat, and Kempie pulled off his famous stunt of scoring from second base on a single to right field. There is many a fast runner in the League, not barring Miller and Raggs, but when Kemp set sails for home, there is not much left for the fielders to do, but watch his dust.

Philadelphia Pa., August 9—
Although some busy person have already conceded the first pennant of the Eastern Colored League to Ed. Roiden's Quaker City crew that to date has swept all before them and are staying in front with the consistency of a door bell, they must recall the fact that but a trilie over the half way mark has been reached and ten strenuous weeks of campaigning are yet before the bronze athletes are the curtain rings down along the Autumn trail.

On the field as well as on pane the well balanced outfit that has been gathered together by the Philadelphia milders appears to be the class of the League, but the uncertainty of things that may occur is what keeps the fans keyed up. Hilldale has hosted all of the league clubs in games played to date, with the exection of the Cuban Stars who have taken four falls out of the Philadelphia team and suffered three reverses. The other clubs measure up to Hilldale has 0 from the Louisiana Giants 5 out of 7 from the Palmieri, more Black Sox, 4 out of 7 from the Bacharach Giants and 3 out of 5 from the Brooklyn Royal Giants.
Cuban Stars Win Five Straight Victories
Well within striking distance of the League leaders. Alex Pompey Cuban Stars are giving Hildale a tough battle and may carry in right down to the finale when the two clubs meet in their last series in September. The Cubans have the edge on Baltimore Black Six

TUBES TIE CITY GIANTS
The Baltimore Tube Black Sox and the City Giants clashed to a four-inning tie 2 to 2, at Dueld Hill Park last Sunday, rain ending the game at this point. The tie will be played off on the same grounds next, Sunday as one of the game of a twin bill. On August 19 the City Giants will journey to Camp Parola to cross, hats, with
Bacharach Giants and Hildale, while they stand even-steven with the Royals and Lincoln, they have bagged 7 out of 9 from the Baltimore Sox, 4 out of 7 from Hildale and the same from the Bacharach Giants, broke even in 2 games with the Royals and 4 with the Lincoln.
On July 19th the Cubs started a spart in the expense of the Hildale Cubs and ran their string to Chicagoight games before being stopped by the Lincoln Giants when they divided a double-header with the innies of Protectory Oval.
Lincoln Giants Playing Better Ball
Honestly out of the race for first honors the tail end Lincoln Giants have shown a reversal of form and are now playing the brand of ball that is expected of them they have been bowling alone at a clip well over the fifty per cent mark since they have come out of the rut the early part of July. Several of the top clubs will have reckoned with his Keeps. The results will probably figure strongly in the penultimate chase.
After an extended layoff from league dates Nate Strong's 'Royal Giants made another swing around the circuit and bettered their standing in the league column by climbing over the fast slipping Baltimore Sox. The Royals with practically the same club intact are a little better off than early in the season because of the fact that a player whose temples have mended, the pitching staff, however, is not producing the assortment of benders that are necessary to turn back the opposition, a very important detail in the national pastime.

N. Y. TENNIS CHAMP BEATS TALLY HOLMES
Old Champion Succumbs To Youth; Finals Set Back By Rain
By Edgar G. Brown
Philadelphia, Aug. 2.—For the second time in ten years of tournament play, Talley Holmes was unable to reach the finals at the Pennsylvania State Open Championships on the Germantown Courts at the Y. W. C. A.
This time it was young Saitch, a hard-hitting, skillful netman of the Vincent Kidnapp type, who took the one invincible memorable victory of Jorge of Jamaica in 1920 over Tally Holmes been able to come from behind and beat this old master of a hundred final rounds. But with all his camming and generalship he could not stop the onshoot of chops, drives, smashes and aces that completely dazzled the gallery as well as the former champion. In the words of his conqueror, I fought for the first time in my life, not intend to be beaten. And, believe me. I finished the New York champion and continued tight, for no one can beat Talley Holmes easily.
In the first set, Smith was outclassed 6-4, and the second was a repetition of the first, until Talley led 5-2 set point. Then Smith started fighting and Talley started running. Talley, a six-second pace, in going after a set point, hitting the earth so hard, he nearly destroyed his trousers. Many felt that this was the turning point in the match as Smith finally won the second set 9-7. In the third set, Talley again led 3-9, when Smith started to "light", and shortly he won the final set 6-4, and carried his team to the finals and establish the youth of the band in their rightful place (1) am writing this Saturday morning only a few hours before we meet in the finals. I expect a hard match but I am going to try to keep the youngster from getting started just as the fierce playoff between Washington, Junior National champion, in the other semi-final round 6-3, 6-4.)
Among the Philadelphiaphians this year who have made great strides in perfecting the driving game, I was most impressed with Willamora, the Filipino, who will give the topperheads a real battle by 1924. Washington will be led by Allen and a host of youngsters will some day give Philly a real place in the tennis game. Dr. Howard and Mr. Smith put the tournament over in great fashion. Among the women Miss Thomas and Mrs. Junior will have to learn how to drive if they expect to have young sixteen-year-old Philadelphia and State Champion, Miss Lula Eubank of Germantown. I expect Smith, my doubles partner, to be a big factor in our final match with Talley Holmes and Ted Thompson. On paper we ought to win.
Next week in New York most of the topperheads and their players will be crowned and a number of upsets and war ratings should result.
In New York Tuesday, John Wilkerson and myself will play off the Eastern singles finals postponed last week in Baltimore.
Ted Thompson and John Wilkerson of Washington will enter Nations in Chicago.
H. H. Wright, M. Wright, and their charming daughter will be in Dr. H. S. McCord's party of Mrs. McCord and daughter of Baltimore. They plan driving through, stopping for a day at Indianapolis tournament. Dr. B. M. Rhetta and Mrs. Rhetta, Prof. Cook, Dr. McLaea and Miss Nicholson will also enter from Baltimore in the Chicago tournament. Smith, Smith, Jones, Bain, Mrs. Wade, Mice Crawford, Miss Leonard and a number of other prominent New Yorkers will arrive in Chicago next week.
Dr. Costa, of Waterbury, Conn.; Dr. Griff and Dr. Downing of Bonneville, Va. will motor over to Annapolis" Smith and Mrs. Alston will袋袋 the nation's naval metropolis.
Dr. McCard, president of the American Tennis Association, had a letter from Mr. Clark, of Jamaica, expressing his regrets in not being able to compete in Chicago this year. A business trip to England made it impossible, but he hopes to be in this country next year by all means. Finals postponed in Philadelphia Saturday on account of rain, will be played Wednesday in New York.

New York Aug. 11.—One of the most promising bouts of the Velvet drome on the N.Y. side is the one Frankie Jerome and Danny Edwards, called the "second George Dixon," because of his speed and hitting. Jerome has made a splendid showing since he began among the bantams. There isn't a fellow here abouts who can outflight matter what pace or other fellow elects in either a straight and a game, two-fisted little chan in Edwards:
Mr. Luis Angel, (or is it Angel Laus?) Firpo is putting himself "in bad" with Boss Muldon, of the N. Y. Boxing Commission, and Jack Kearnes, manager of Jack Dempsey.
Here, Harry Wills has been begging for a crack at the title for the past four or five years, yet he is turned down and Firpo selected as the "next man."
Now speaks Firpo, (thru his interpreter) bewailing the hustle with which he is shoved into a match with Dempsey, and declarating the present time than himself, ing that Wills is better prepared.
Just for that now, Boss Muldoon is likely to give him a dirty look when he goes into New York, where he will fight the right and knees will doubtless turn up his nose at him when he climbs thru the ropes.
We are told that Tally Holmes, who held the national singles championship among colored players for five years until beaten last year by Edgar Brown, has developed an acute case of "temperament." In other words they say the former champion demands a gang of "free doings" if he goes to Chicago to compete in the National Tournament.
We are inclined to hold this rumor in obeyance. They do say Prof. Holmes is well able to take care of all the financial loose ends that the trip will entail. Nothing short of his inability to do so, would in our judgment justify a demand of this kind.
The case which is said to be responsible for the above mentioned symptoms was also responsible it is said for his not taking part in the Eastern Championships held here two weeks ago. We hope they have got Tally "wrong."
Sometime ago, the writer pointed out in these columns the great mistake that Harry Wills and his manager Paddy Mullins were making by keeping Wills out of the limelight, while the dubs were beating him to pee, and reaping him to publicity and financially the financial fragrms that the champ chose to leave after polishing off the third and fourth raters.
Now speaks Damon Rayon, famous sports scribe, in part as follows: Wills is a lawyer on nights, while Wills is a lawyer would say the past few months. The writer thinks Wills is a good fighter—at least. Wills was a good fighter. * Wills in his old condition would give Dempsey a good light.
"Perhaps Wills would beat Dempsey, if Dempsey is punishing no better than he is punched against Tom Gibbons at Sheby. But Wills and his handlers cannot hope to secure a match with Dempsey or Firpo, if Firpo takes the title from Dempsey, by sitting idly down and watching the pugilistic world roll by. Wills properly conducted is a $100,000 plant. But a non-productive plant pays mighty few dividends in prize fighting or any thing else."
This yer Stanford lad is certainly by jumping himself a mess in the weekly bill for glory meets that are gipped conducted at. Drudgill Hill park under the auspices of the Playground Athletic League. And it looks like he's going to be the best thing in the city has ever turned out, if he keeps it up; which we're hopin' he will.
"Start" (which ain't correct for his name 'cause he can't stand' for jumpin') held the city record in the running broad jump, 120 pounds class for two or three years past, which was the record of 17 ounces, until the past July. Fourth when he beat this distance by exactly one foot.
And now comes Roger Grant, 19-year-old lad, and bags the Grand Rapids, Mich., from the ducky. Yes sirre, they will do it, every now and then, they will do it.
In the process of saving souls, Jeff, it is said will make a tour of the world urging the amalgamation of all the white races to preserve white supremacy and white races for Jeff. That 15-round heating that Jack handed him sort of sourced Jim on race-mixing forever after wards. We should think it would.
Danny Edwards Fights
The boy is a graceful boxer and a ring general. There's a fellow capable of winning the title.
NO WORLD'S SERIES BETWEEN EAST AND WEST BALL CLUBS
Great Contest
Chicago, Illinois, August 9—There will not be any East vs. West series at the present time the league president and the board of directors turning a deaf car to the unreasonable proposition, in as much as the Eastern league, acting as an outlaw organization, has contracted to dissatisfy players under clubs, and has joined the league battled on players, disregarding contracts signed and money advanced by owners. In reality the members of the Colored Professional Baseball association, which operates the Negro National league, with Birmingham, Memphis and Dayton as members of the North organization, consider the eastern so-called league as merely a "booking agency" and will treat them
Memphis and Birmingham put up good games against all league clubs. The Tate Stars-Memphis Red Sox Sunday game ended 5 to 1, favor of the Southern boys. This game uncovered an 18-year-old pitcher, who see the big leaguers down with their bats. He happens to be Rube Foster's brother, who will be given a try with the American Giants either this fall or in the spring of 1943.
Milwaukee's three straight wins over St. Louis has created a star. Four teams have graced the top ring of the ladder in the Negro National league race since the season started, namely the Chicago American Giants Indianapolis A. B. C. Detroit Stars and Kansas City Monarchs. The Indianapolis club started off like a home, after this spring and it looked as though they were going to make a runaway race of the affair.

LINGOLNS TAKE TWIN BILL FROM HILLDALE
New York, Aug. 9—As further proof that their recent effort to climb out of the collar position of the Eastern League standing was no fluke, the Lincoln Giants hammered Ed. Bolden's Hilldale nine at Protectory Oval last Sunday for a double killing 8-7 in the 21-inning opener and in the curtain tilt. Hilldale beat Norristown Monday 5-1 with Lee pitching.

Dismukes was also handicapped
by the loss of one of his second-
string catchers who was injured in
the early games of the season. He
sent to Chicago and bought Dixon
from the American Giants. Dixon
is making good with the team.
Getting off to a flying start by taking three out of five games from the American Giants, the Monarchs of Kansas City cased along in second place for some time. They broke the goal line but hold it, losing four straights to Foster's clan and returning to Chicago to get kicked two out of three again. They have atoned for these defeats, however, in their recent series when they took four out of five from the American Giants, allowing them the first game, which was on Saturday, July 28. The second game went to the Monarchs with Rogan on the mound against Rile, 3 to 2. Monday's game was won by the Monarchs, 6 to 5. Drake pitching and the old veteran, Mendez got away with a 14 to 0 shut-out and the final game the Giants, one of the most disgrateful trips for the Chicago club in recent years.
By virtue of their victory over the Giants and the defeat of Detroit club, which lost three out of five games to the Indianapolis A. J. C.'s, the league race is creating much interest. The Monarchs have slipped into first place with a nice lead and the American Giants have been shown into third place, with Detroit in second and the Hoosier club in fourth. The Indianapolis club threatens to go to the Celtics in the next two weeks while the Giants are playing the Bulls, who rest at present in a fifth place and who are playing a packerjack game.
PANAMA JOE GANS
EASY FOR BOGASH
New York, Aug. 9.—Lew Bogash, white, of Bridgeport, might have won the colored wetterweight championship Thursday night if he had been colored. He beat Panama Joe Gans, file holder, in a semi-final bout to the Dave Shude-Paul Doyle contest, at the Veldreem which won Bogash, who has blossomed into a middleweight, weighed 161½ and had a nine-pound advantage of Cyril Quinton, to call Panama Joe by his real name. Bogash, who is the real brunier type in appearance, proved just as tough as he looked. In the early rounds Bogash ripped terrific right swings to the stomach and was struck by a stormy evening for the dark boy. But Gans weathered the fourth and fifth rounds, and even the sixth, when it looked to be surely the end for the Negro, who was taking his beating stolically and doing some stiff punching himself here and there. Between the sixth and seventh rounds Lee P. Fllyn gave Gans earnest screams. He isn't hurting himself and finished Lee P. This must have been news to Gans.
Whether it was Leo P.'s advice or possibly, Bogash had tired, Gaps came along strong in the next three rounds, but not enough to overcome the early Bogash advantage. And in the tenth and last round Bogash had the better of some very hard mixing.
Eagles, 15; Young Sox, 5
The Penn. Eagles added to their string of straight wins this season by swamping the Young Black Sox last, Sunday, 16-5. The game was ended in the seventh by rain.

DEMPSEY PREFERS TO FIGHT WILLS FIRST
Says Wills Asked for a Match
Heard of
Chicago, Aug. 9—The New York promoters, and Jack Kirkens who are rushing Dempsey in a match with Luis Firpo in preference to Harry Wills who has the prior claim on the next crack at the title, were given another swat between the eyes last week. And by no means less than Dempsey himself. Dempsey's blow came right on top of one administer to the parties in question by Firpo, who declared recently that Wills was the more logical man to fight the elf-ponin at this time. Dempsey' passing this city en route to New York where he is going into training for the Firpo match, is quoted as saying that he would much prefer Wills for the next bout than Firpo. Dempsey's fighting was his business and that he would fight anybody, the champion said that Wills had asked for a fight before Firpo was ever heard off, and he would like to give him first chance at the title. He thought, however, that Wills would be his next opponent after Firpo.
Penna. Eagles' Manager Explains
In reply to our request that he explain the protest of the manager of the Sluggers that the Pennsylvania Eagles were falsifying in their claim of having not lost a game this season, the manager of the Eagles writes in part as follows: "This year we have played them (Sluggers) two games. We won the first and our empire and a fan on the outside got to fighting in the sixth innings, and the manager of the Sluggers stopped the game with the Eagles at bat, and we were two runs behind. "About the Weldong: They promised us a guarantee, and after the first innings our manager asked for our money after they told us they were only going to pay 60 per cent to the winner and 40 per cent to the loser. When they put a large bill on us for the park. Then we refused to play. "Signed, L. THOMAS, Mgr. 1125 Stockton St., City. signment.
BLACK SOX AGAIN
TRIM BACHARACHS
Atlantic City, N. J., Aug. 6—The Baltimore Black Sox came here with the Bachrach Glenn after defeating the latter in Baltimore on Sunday, and humbled the clan of Jackson today, 8-7.
"Mac" Mahoney who has been on the sick list for a couple of weeks, took a feel out on the hill to see if he was "all right" again and was so all right that he bested Henderson in a pitcher's duel, holding the Scanders to eight scuttured bingles to Henderson's nine. Five costly boots, however, added to Henderson's undoing. Wilson, Black Sox first-sucker was the fielding star.

Chicago, Aug. 9—What should be the best bout between colored heavyweights held this year will take place Friday night between George Godfrey and Bill Tate as the principal bout of the all-star card to be staged by Sol Sal Mar Post No. 22S American Legion at Hawthorne race track. Chief interest in this bout centres in the fact that the winner will doubtless be matched with Harry Wills for the colored heavy-weight championship of the weight. A hot battle is supposed as both fighters are superior to the heavyweights now before the public, with the exception of Dempsey and Wills.
Goffrey is a young fighter that was first brought to the attention of the prize ring world by Jack Johnson. He has bowled over practically all his opponent since he began to battle. Tate is well known to the boxing fraternity for the stiff arguments he has given Harry Wills. Wills is expected to be the third man in the ring.

Warren G. Harding
The eyes of the nation today are turned toward
Marion. Ohio. the town which gave to the United States
its 29th President. and now again receives all that is
mortal of him to hide it away in a final resting place.
A little over two years ago Mr. Harding entered the
White House on the wave of the largest popular vote
ever given the nation’s chief executive. Neither in will
nor physique was he a strong man, and the weakness
of his policies affecting the Negro became almost imme-
diately evident. So it hanpened in this brief space of
time, that he lost the confidence of the intelligent and
progressive Negro thinkers in all parts of the country,
who migrated into the camp of his political opponent.
The race expected much of Mr. Harding. His nre-
election promises stamped him a second Lincoln, Said he
on one occasion: “President Wilson refused to recognize
the Mexican peons because he says they are not capable
of self-government. In the section of the country where
the President’s party dominates there are more than four
millions of Negroes. Democrats will not permit them
to help govern themselves. I believe the Negro is capable
of governing himself, and I know one Negro is worth
more than ten peons.”
Yet these things are history. Today we remember
not our disillusionments or disappointments; we recall
only that a nation put upon him a burden too great to
bear. The black lad, who, with tears streaming down
his cheeks, placed a solitary rose unon the bier of Mr.
Harding as the body lay in state in the canital, paid the
tribute of his race to the man who was the President,

Go Fishing!
The people that feel sorry for themselves because
they cannot see their way to take “prolonged vacation”
will feel a lot better if they will let the hars down lone
enough now and then to get a little fresh air. There is
‘something radically wrong about a job that does not
‘allow the employee to go fishing for'a day or so if he
yearns to do so.
He may not care a little bit about the fish, but the
motion of getting them is his medicine. A planned one
day a week would become a normal rest period to look
forward to—a routine matter the contemplation of which
would be in itself medicinal. Suppose you try it for
tha suihiner sacnthe:
Too often do we neglect to give proper credit and
commendation to the faithful ministers of our community.
We seem to think they are receiving their reward, and
many times do we allow them to go through life with
a very few words of praise and appreciation for the
splendid work they are doing. They go about their pas-

just like anyone else. Give them a word of appreciation
and see what effect it will have on them. Anyone who
observes the splendid co-operation and unselfishess of
our preachers canmot fail to have a higher regard and
appreciation for them. :
