Resuto Woman, Graduate of Wilberforce, Promises That Blacks Will Retaliate
COLOR LINE BY DAY
Share Worker Admits
Whites Prey Upon Native
Women at Night
Johannesburg, S. Africa, (African
World Service) Oct. 24.—The White
League, an organization similar to
the Ku Klux Klan in America, has
been formed here to keep native men
from intermingling with white women.
As soon as its organization was
made known, Mrs. Charlotte Maxeke,
L. S. C., graduate of Wilberforce
University, Ohio, a member of the
Desuto tribe, and an experienced
welfare worker, issued a statement in
which she said blacks will organize
a Black League in retaliation. The
statement said:
A BLACK LEAGUE
"If there is a White League there will be a Black League, and those two operating against each other will bring about a condition of things similar to that which obtains in America. I do fervently hope that we shall be spared this, for no one knows what appalling horrors may be the outcome of the activities of those who are prepared to ignore the law and to arrogate unto themselves the discharge of its functions."
Unfortunately there is a heavy illicit traffic between European males and native females, and this is reflected in the fact that the native's colour is changing. Every year the colored birth-rate is increasing, especially in Johannesburg. The evil has crept into the natives own natural habitation, and now native storekeepers have as many as two and three native wives, and, in some instances more."
COLOR BAR-BY DAY
"Yes, you may be surprised to hear of this terrible relationship, but I as a social worker am well aware of it. There is a color bar here by day—not by night, so far as the association of European men and native girls is concerned, but the course of punitive measures as a result of their women folk be molested or injured in any way, is it not natural to expect that the Black League will retaliate if their brothers and sisters are victimised?
"The main cause of the intermingling of the races is that Europeans insist upon employing native men (house boys) to do the work around the house instead of women. No trouble was ever experienced before the advent of these house boys. Our natives know it has always been a grave crime to interfere with or besmirch the honor of any woman, contributory cause to the European unmitigating native men to their sleeping apartments and the modes of dress adopted by European females.
THE HOUSEBOY
"Nature itself ordains that the European woman's handmaid should be one of her own sex, and not a member of the opposite sex. It is ridiculous to think of a big, able-bodied woman as a housemaid, taking a woman from her natural duties. From the better class of European woman the native girls would learn how to conduct themselves with propriety, and receive instruction in domestic science and housecraft generally, and thereby become useful members of society. In addition, to solve the problem of the elimination of the houseboy by the substitution of the native girl."

Church Afloat,

Oklahoma City, Okla., Oct. 25—Antioch Baptist Church floated down the Oklahoma river Tuesday in company with logs, houses, cotton bales and other debris, swept away when the river overflowed its banks.
Out of the 10,000 flood sufferers, 1,000 colored people were made homeless. Taxi drivers performed heroic service in hauling people to higher ground.

FRIENDS JOKED AS HIS LIFE BLOODEBBED
"Funny" Man From the Country Shot Friend, Not Knowing Revolver To Be Loaded
LAUGHED AS VOCTIM DIED
Murderer on Stand Sobs as He Calls Dead Man "His Life-Long Friend"
While the life blood of Vernon Keer, 422 Elsden street, was oozing out, the man who shot him and other pals were laughing and joking, according to testimony in the Criminal Court Tuesday before Judge Stein.
Peter Asbury Tilghman, Little Monument street, who went on trial in Part 1 of the Criminal Court for fatally shooting Keer on June 24th, stated on the witness stand that the shooting was an accident.
On the stand Tilghman sobbing referred to himself as the life-long companion of the dead man. He said he was returning from the country on the afternoon of June 24th, when he approached Keer and some others seated in front of the soft "Tuft" place of George W. Wilson, 417 Elsden street.
"Well here comes Asbury, all looking good," Keer is alleged to have said. The crowd chuckled because Tilghman had the reputation of being "funny."
He has just come from the country and I bet he has all the money" another man present said. "I haven't, but I have some of it," said Tilghman, taking a roll from his pocket.
“And I bet he has that same old ‘Hoodgelum’ (referring to a pistol). Keer again said, whereupon it is alleged Tilghan stated, “yes I have leged Tilghan stated, “Yes. I have that too,” and at the same time pulled the death-dealing instrument from his pocket and shot Keer in the abdomen. He died shortly afterwards at the Franklin Square Hospital.
Tilghan contended on the witness stand that he did not know that the gun was loaded and that the whole affair was an accident. When the gun fired, all the men present burst out in a big laugh, and it was not until several minutes later when Keer crumpled from the box on which he was sitting that the seriousness of the affair was realized. Tilghan left the place and was arrested at his home the following day.

116 Postmasters In U. S.; 40 of Them Colored
Washington, Oct. 25.—(Lincoln Service)—There is hardly an occupation in the United States in which women are not engaged. Of the 116 postmasters under Postmaster General New, 40 of them are women. Other statistics show that: There are 7 colored police women in the United States.
Twenty-four colored women in the country are mail carriers and 19 are "news boys." Preferring personal service as a means of livelihood, 12,660 colored women have found employment as barbers, hairdressers and manicurists. While only 11 white females are engaged in shoe shining as an occupation, 22 colored women are thus employed throughout the United States. If military should not like the true feminine finish that her shoe-maker applied to her last boots, she may pick among 28 colored women, engaged in the work in the country, to make her next pair. Of the 35,442 colored persons who were profession of public schools in the United States, 29,189 are women, and 94 of these women have reached the
D. C. PLANS TO BAR MARRIED TEACHERS
D. C. PLANS TO BAR MARRIED TEACHERS
Washington, D. C., Oct. 25.—Wm. L. Houston, one of the three colored members of the School Board, is the father of a measure to stop the appointment of married teachers and automatically release those who have married while in the service.
Mr. Houston made it clear that this proposal would not affect the status of the married teachers now in the system.
The resolution was prompted by the fact that there is a large waiting list of normal school graduates and only a few vacancies every year. Over half of the teachers who marry in the service are said to be of the number also who have requested the two-year leave of absence during maternity period have returned to their work. Pupils have been known to marry during their high school days, finish their schooling and get an appointment as teachers.
Mr. Houston says, is that very little new blood has been instilled into the local system recently.
12 Years' Probation
Washington, Oct. 25.—Walter Stanford, facing Judge Mattingly on the charge of being tips, swore that he had not had a drink for twelve years. "Alright," declared the Judge, "you are free on twelve years probation." Walter Race, on a like charge, was placed on probation for six years.

It is surprising to note the scarcity of colored stenographers in the United States. There are only 2,310 of these, of which 1,970 are women.

IS $10,000 OUT
James S. Williams. 1150 Pennsylvania avenue, was held for the Grand Jurry yesterday charged with the larceny of $10,602.50 from John R. Gross. 1628 W. Franklin street, a real estate dealer. According to Gross, William borrowed the money, giving a note and a fake $12,900 Government bond for security. The bond proved a fake. Williams, he said, gave him a worthless check for the amount.
Can Keep $5,000
Dr. R. Garland Chissell, Druid Hill avenue and McMechen street, a physician, is $5,000 in. Suit of Katharine Kidd, white, against him in City Court for this amount as damages was dismissed Wednesday.

FRANCE LEAVES PAN-AFRICAN CONGRESS
DuBois Admits French President and Secretary Have Both Resigned
New York.—Dr. Dubois telegrammed the Afro today:
"I expect the co-operation of French, English, Portuguese, Americans and others, although French are hampered by lack of funds."
France has deserted the Pan-African Congress.
Dr. DuBois admits that M. Gratien Candez, deputy from Gaude-loupe in the French Parliament, president of the Congress and M. Isaac Beton, assistant professor of a lycee in Paris, secretary, have both resigned.
This means that the third Pan-African Congress, which had planned to hold some of its sessions in Paris, will be moved instead to London, England and Lisbon, Portugal. Whether or not the session in this latter place will be successful is not known, because Santo who headed the African League there, died last winter, leaving the movement at a standstill.
French Africans Satisfied
Defection of the French delegates, it is said, is due to the fact that the natives are satisfied with the manner in which France is governing her colonies. The first and second Pan-African movement was financed by the N A A. C. P. Recently the Association withdrew part of its support because it is interested primarily in local American race problems. This gap was made by the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, who promised to help and will send a representative to the third congress.
In an appeal sent out to Europeans to aid in the success of the third Congress, Dr. DuBois says 700,000,000 Negroes "For six years now we have been trying to organize the movement. It is still an idea, but it is a great idea. Here there are in the world several hundred millions of Negro descent divided into tribes and grown and distributed among the nations, speaking different languages representing wide differences in grades of culture and yet having certain definite and pressing problems in common. "These questions all centre centre around the question: Are Negroes to be regarded as human beings, or are they to form a permanently inferior class?" "For the good of the whole world it is necessary that this fundamental question and other questions arising from it should be settled at the earliest possible moment. The economic and educational problems of the world, the problems of the African people, the emergence and nationhood depend upon the future status of black men and other coloured people in the world.
Europeans Should Help
"It has seemed, therefore, to many thinking Negroes in this part of the universe that something: should be done to bring the Negro world into common understanding and acquaintance with the teaching with the advancing thought of the rest of the world; they should work for the uplift and emancipation of black folk. This is the that underlying the Pan-African movement. It has, of course, aroused widespread curiosity

A. E.
With Charles W. Main in the chair, 34 women associate member of the Republican City Committee met at the Union League Club, 105 W. Saratoga street, last week and elected eight of their number to the State Central Committee.
Mrs. Anna L. McMechen, 2007 McCulloh street, was named to represent the Fourth District. Rivalry between the 14th and 17th Wards was keen for this position.

This is the first time a colored woman has sat on the State Central Body with a vote.
THEATRICAL WAR STARTS AGAIN
Washington, D. C., Oct. 25.—War has broken out again between the Theatre Owners, Booking Associations and a number of independent houses. Word has been passed to vaudeville actors that they will not be given employment by the Association if they play in any independent house. In a statement issued to the actors this week, S. H. Dudley, secretary of the Association, warns the profession that it is better to get a season's booking through his office than to play a few weeks in an independent theatre and then be laid off for the rest of the time.

Petitioners Say Hatchett & Lewis Kept Proceeds from Sale of Standard Brochure Society
Benefit Society
Pettitions for receivership in three defunct Baltimore concerns were filed in the Circuit Court this week.
A petition instituted jointly and severally against Truly Hatchett and William S. Lewis, formerly constituting the banking firm of Hatchett & Lewis, and the Morgan Investment Company, has been filed in Circuit Court No. 2. This suit is the direct outcome of the recent sale of the Standard Benefit Society of this city to the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, of Washington.
The petitioners are Dr. Oscar D. Jones, Walter Whitley, Pennamiah Hill, Edward Knight, and Edward Blake. The bill of complaint set out that on or about November 1st, 1920, after failing to organize a State bank, Messrs. Hatchett and Lewis induced them to invest $1,000 in a plan to organize the presumed Pennamiah Hill, Edward Knight, and Edward Blake, the known as the Morgan Investment Company. Subsequently, the bill avers, the Morgan Investment Company invested about $5,000 in the Standard Benefit Society and that the sale of this Society to the Benefit Insurance Company has net $5,000, which has been appropriated personally by Hatchett and Lewis.
The bill also declares that the banking firm was run at a loss and asks that a receiver be appointed to wind up the affairs of the parent and
The Hatchett & Lewis banking firm, which was capitalized at $100,000, was one of the institutions that went to the wall during the crisis that proved fatal to many similar institutions throughout the country.

These are the investment an investment of $660 with holdings of 504 shares for which they paid $5 each. The petitioners also declare that the major assets of the concern have been dissipated and ask that an accounting be made under the condition of disruption against the company thus its officials and the petitioners are represented by Attorney W. Ashleigh Hawkins.
I. N. I. A. AGAIN
Following the recent unsuccessful effort of Mr. Sandy Moody and his associates to have a constitutional amendment pertaining to the management of the affairs of the Universal Negro Improvement Society, they went back into court this week asking that receivership and accounting of the affairs of the local body.
This suit is the culmination of a factional fight to hold control of the local Garvey movement. Attorney Milton Deshields represents the petitioners, while Attorneys Warner T. McGunn, George W. Cameron and J. Steward Davis represent the present officers of the organization.

General Gaither Asked

Colored Voters, Do Not Forget Menchine, Opponent of Harry O. Levin for State Senate. Here is Menchine's Record:
Supporters of Harry Levin, candidate for the State Senate from the Fourth District are out to beat William G. Menchine, his Democratic opponent. Menchine, it is being recalled, was one of those who as a member of the North Baltimore Improvement Association worked hard for the West Segregation measure when it was before the City Council, in the planning of the measure which would restrict colored people to certain blocks included Eldwu T. Dickens, Milton Deshields, S. S. Fields, A. S. Goldbough, Wm. L. Marbury, and a number of others. This same Association last week endorsed Menchine for the Senate. Supporters of the Improvement Association Menchine is quoted as saying in 1911:
"According to the 14th annual report of the Bureau of Statistics and information, the colored people paid taxes on property of an assessed valuation in 1904 of $617,646. The assayer Negroes in the Northeastern police district was $121,066 and in the Northwestern district $200,186. The total assessed valuation of Negro property in these two districts was $121,162, leaving, an assessed valuation of $115,510 in the Eastern, Southwestern, western and Northern police districts.
"The same annual reports informs us that out of the total Negro population for the entire City of $1,331 there reside in the Northwestern and Northwestern police districts 55,936 colored persons. These figures clearly demonstrate that the colored people more than a rental interest in "mixed stocks" and there they intend to stay."
"There is another fact that should be considered. In 1964 there were $1,831 Negroes residing in Baltimore; in November, 1910 there were $8,045. Where do you propose to house this increasing Negro population? I say house them on 'mixed streets' where there are now living and where property is depreciated, never again to appreciate and house you people. I say property is white streets—on new streets, if you choose—where property valuations will remain staple for years to come and thus accomplish true segregation.
"There is still another reason why 'mixed streets' should be allowed to work out their own salvation, which, in my humble opinion, means to become wholly colored. It is a well known fact, that a very large percentage of the colored race suffers from tuberculosis. For this reason, if no other, we should not encourage the occupancy by a white family of a residence formerly occupied by a colored family. Yet it is exactly the same thing that happens. It compels the owner of a house on the 'mixed street', where the majority of the houses are occupied by white persons, to rent a house formerly occupied by a Negro to a white person and none other."

The two men were arrested primarily in South Carolina for house breaking. They escaped and fled to North Carolina where they were captured. While in jail awaiting the South Carolina authorities, they made their second escape and came to Washington. The search continues.

DOUGLASS Vaudeville and Pictures
Princess Mysteria, the mind-reading mystic and second-sight reader, and three vaudeville acts comprise the stage attraction at the Douglass this week. Princess Mysteria, although seen here before, held her audience spell-bound by her ability to tell things one wanted to know and read coins, emblems and other things at second-sight.
Of the vaudeville turns, there are Tim and Gertie Moore, Peat and Tolliver, Inc., and Jack Hand in the Company. The latter opened the bill with a unicycle riding act, during which he juggled various articles and did some hooping, rolling still perched on his unicycle.
Peat and Tolliver, two men, the former in blackface and the latter in chihuahua, with an act that went voor finely. Their chief chatter has to do with the getting of Peat's laundry. Tolliver sings "Chink Chink Chinaman," in a pleasing voice, and then he and Peat close to a grand hand in a duet

Tim and Gertie Moore "closed the bill and proved a riot. Moore working under cork in his familiar overgrown country boy get up, turned loose his rapid-fire side-splitting line of chater, the moment he appeared from the wings and he had the house rocking in their seats. Mrs. Moore had little to do but prove a foll for Moore's jokes. We have said time and again, and we again, Moore snatched the bead of all colored cochins on the stage today.
Sam and Gladys Rhodes, a man and woman duo, the former under cork, opened in the second spot with a clever song and chatter act Monday matinee, but they were cancelled after this performance. Mr. Rhodes says that he was told his act wasn't up to the mark, but believes that the boy was longer in the house could cause a real cause. Speaking personally, Rhodes' act was first class and it was a grave injustice on the part of the management to offer this false excuse.
Pictures complete the bill.

The white girl he left behind him—and the jungle-girl who saved his life-both fought for him. But in startling different ways.
All the enthralling mystery of the Orient—and that's considerable—is in The Vigorous claw. Also all the dark-eyed treachery of its turbaned sons, and the burning, deep-set passion of its dark-skinned daughters.
Here are tremendous thrills for you—You'll see a tiger hunt in the jungle tracked and killed at last. You'll see a dam blown up—with an o'mady flooding the surrounding country. You'll see Jack Holt on a speeding set of horsenandship—with all the skill and grief. And these are only a few of the glows.

Far from the maddening throngs of big cities, reposing peacefully in the heart of our country, lie our Main Streets, rich with fascinating types. Sinclair Lewis wrote of one of them in his "Main Street," the most talked of novel of the age, discussed heatedly pro and con by every periodical and newspaper in the country. It is a story rich with the heart stuff that captures and makes one lose oneself in the throbbing drama unfolded.

"How Come "Liza"
"How Come" And "Liza" Showed Class
The appearance of "How Come" and "Liza" shows at the Gayette Theatre recently both of which were brought here thru the efforts of Mr. Les Sponsor served to define very sharply certain attitudes of the colored theatre-givers and also certain attitudes of whites. For the past three years, no mention of the better clause of things in the theatre, clearly, could be made without drugging in the Douglass Theatre. What the history of this house has been is well known to
One fact then stands out, it was only the Gayetty manager that made it possible for Baltimoreans to see them. Many colored people went and enjoyed the shows. Many stayed away protesting that they would not witness a show in a burlesque house. The inference of the latter, ought being that the shows should have been played at the Douglass. Here is a peculiar phase that has long puzzled those who have handled the Douglass. The very class that would expect to support better class of musical shows were always elsewhere. Show Surprises White Additors We have learned that these shows were a revelation to the majority of white auditors. They had only seen the familiar black faced Negro comic who usually appear with white burlesque shows, limit of the colored actor's ability, and accepted him as about that a show like "Liza" with its great stars Greenlee and Drayton, with its nifty chorus girls and agile

REASON FOR POOR SHOWS
How's this? A show on the circuit "down home" gets $25 for nine people. The sales commission is $11.25 and the jump is $61, and yet we why the show owner and his people are not satisfied—and why don't they bring better shows. Do some arithmetic with these figures, folks.

IN NEW YORK
BY J. A. JACKSON
Last Wednesday, the writer took a second peep at the new "North Aint South" show. This time with more or less unconscious background of familiarity with the piece, so there was nothing left by pick the high spots. We note a general improvement and an all-round tightening up of the whole fabric.
Jesse Shipp has patched up a lot of the spots that were up to the desired standard. The light cues are being more respected. The result of teh latter is that the radio costume worn in the "On Parade" number go over for a walloping big hand. Jenelle Hughan must have enjoyed the way her costume have been received by the public.
Mae Kemp proved the value of experience, when she doubled her part and that of Miss Gibbs, who was off because of sickness. She got away with both in great style. The whole iow was much better and will take a proper place among the bigger road attractions.
Marion Harrison had gotten off her bashful demeanor and moved up a notch in the character of her work. Wet get a pass. Max Michaels, business manager of her graveyard, gave a show, spent a days in New York, arranging the bookings for the latter part of their season, and while here handed, the Page a pass for himself and family that reads. "For any and all time in any theatre the show may be playing. Never to be taken up at the door." That assures us of a chance to see the show sometime in the future. Senior Deacon Ayres, and the corner cabinet of Columbus, Ohio, sent a long wire of congratulations to Whitney and Tutt on the occasion of the opening of their show in New York. Dotson's Chile master, after the show on a cool evening is great Chili and Tamales served amid artistic surroundings, has become a fad with the professional bunch. Billy Boone, our friend of the early 1980s, Tamales Sister, a tantalizingly known cabernet, and the new act will be offered soon in vaudeville.
GARLAND HOWARD CO.
Went into the Lincoln Theatre Friday evening, October 12th, to see the mixed minstrel that the Garland Howard company was presenting there for the second week of the company's stay in the house and what do you oldtimers think? Honest I am telling you the truth. Sam Cook that very good old-time minstrel end man whom you recall sat opposite Benny Jones on the Kersands show of which he was stage manager there in pretty clothes. Howard was a singer. He sir, not a bit of cork or comedy from him. The Lincoln audience sure got cheated that week. We came out disappointed. What's the use of good talent, if it is hidden?
While we are at it, talking about the Lincoln, there's one feature of the house worthy of note. That is Mrs. Tennant, and going right down quarter of the house. The folks stay the line, you will find a lot of familiar faces there, if you are a free woman. Mrs. Downs and Manager Snyder, Mrs. Sequera adds a smile to every ticket sale. The Mrs. Emma Walter ships another one over as she takes the ticket. Either Mrs. Nelson, Sarah Gibson, Mrs. McCall, or Rose Gibson, Mrs. McCall, with a smile. Oh, it's a nice staff.
The Sunday work of the Page was interrupted early by a 'phone call from a pair of the Philadelphiaians, Alonzo Jackson, of the Garrick dramatic school, and his wife, who conducts the Derrick Business College in that city. They were week-ending in New York, and they belonged to the Page and Harlem. They liked the Lincoln, Lafayette and Renaissance Theatres, Craig's restaurant, The Dressing Room Club, the Trade and Commerce Club, and fell in love with Charles Thorpe and the Musicians' Headquarters, that, is Jack did. He brought their set back to New York after seven months' absence, ready to hit out after the big time contracts. Chance Williams just won't let his interests be neglected. He has an advertising man hired for the song writers' ball, but he wanted advertising, so he and the wife took a carload of them to Harlem. HANIST HERBES
Ethic Hill the pianist, has retired, to the halls of Pennsylvania for a while. She is in Willems for a while. She will get back to New York soon.
A TUBA ARTIST
Harrison R. Hail, the tuba artist is with George Marmack's nine-piece orchestra at the Circle Theatre on East 103 Street in Cleveland O. The bunch plays film accompaniments, puts on a quartette and does some great vertures. They are likely to be in the East soon as a vaudeville attraction.

SERMONETTE
BY Dr. W. T. S. JOHNSON
STEP IN
CHRISTIAN GROWTH
the knowledge of the Lord
and Saviour Jesus Christ." 2
Peter 3:18.
The best possible evidence
of life is growth. Grow or die
is nature's law. It is also the
law of the spirit. Just as
complying with the laws of
growth will assure
physical development, so will
compliance with the laws of
spiritual growth guarantee
spiritual development. Time is
an element in both physical
and spiritual growth.
It takes time to grow from
infancy to maturity. Time is
also required to grow from
abandon in Christ" to the "fullness
of the stature of manhood" in Him. We invite
your consideration of the following steps in Christian growth;
1. Recognition of the value of little things.
2. Recognition of the necessity of working alone with God.
3. Recognition of the necessity of working with others for God.
4. Recognition of the fact that all things belong to God.
Pastor Scores Bishops
Pastor Scores Bishops
Chicago, Ill., Oct. 25.—I was tired of seeing men made slaves to another simply because he has his appointment in his hands. I was tired and sick of being, out of harmony with some of the big ministers and some bishops simply because I was tired of seeing such large sums of money raised and cash little good done with it.'
In these words, kev, J. H. Harvey explained to his friends here his reason for withholding from the A. M. E. denomination.
A Coolidge Habit
"Whenever I went away and left any jobs for my son to do I never looked when I returned to see if he'd done them. I knew he had. It was a habit of his, a habit that hasn't hurt him. John Coolidge with John Coolidge gives the keynote to President Coolidge's character.

Dr. H. T. S. Johnson
THE WAY TO INTER-RACIAL CO-OPERATION
Then Peter began to speak, "I clearly see," said he, "that God makes us to treat between one man and another but that in every good condition they who fear Him and live their lives are acceptable to Him."—Arts 10:34-35.
Peter was a strict Jew and shared fully the opinion of his race that God made them out of better clay than He used when making the Gentiles. In fact, though he with the other apostles had been commissioned to "go the whole world over and proclaim the good news to all mankind," he believed that good news far for the Jews only. And he told the house-keeper that he give a thought about the Gentile's claim on salvation. Not until he heard Cornellus himself tell of the heavenly messenger to him did he get big enough to say, "I clearly see that God makes no distinction between one man and another."
Te John Wesley M. E. Church choir held their first monthly collation and rehearsal at 1310 Division street Friday Oct. 19. The following members were present: Mameshes E. Ward, E. Garrison, M. Hackett, P. Adams, C. Stewart, V. Wright, M. Crosby, H. Woods, S. Hall, J. Henry, C. Palmer, H. Buckner, C. Dyer, E. Traves. Misses M. Harris, E. Hackett, L. Edmonds, Messrs. W. O. Johnson, E. Freeman, E. Wilson, J. Mitchell, H. Jackson, E. B. Raywings, W. Whentley, W. E. Davis, Jr., and G. Brown, Mr. W. O. Johnson, chorister, Mrs. E. Ward, organist.
Last Sunday night, Mt. Neho Lodge, No. 1366 Grand United Order of Old Fellows Worshipped at the People's Christian Church in their Annual Service. A splendid program was rendered and a short sermon by the pastor, the Rev. Hezekiah Brown was in charge.

Weekly Talks
on Advertising
Only those whose business has been built upon systematic NEWS-PAPER advertisement know the value of such ADVERTISEMENT. The sequence, is that when the pressman's strike took place in York recently a new York's big business man because they knew they were sure to suffer a tremendous loss as they had no way to place their merchandise before the public. Six of NEW YOK'S BIG MERCHANTS failed as a result of the strike. We prove that NEWS-PAPER ADVERTISEMENT a prerequisite to the success of any business one needs only to investigate the loss entailed by New York's department stores while the strike was in progress. The one issue which was published daily as a medium by which to inform the public of current events was almost by advertisers who wanted to buy these commodities.
The first issue of New York's big dailies that appeared on the streets after things returned to normal sold ten times as fast as they would have sold under ordinary circumstances. Why? Because the public was looking for sales of the things highly requisite to its needs that they knew would appear in the newspapers with price and address on sale of the products which gave them the opportunity to find out where such could be bought the cheapest.
Going back to the story, if newspaper advertisement is essential to the success of such concerns as Gimbel, Stilen and Strauss, the small business man is fighting a losing game without it.

We would like very much if it be in your opinion that the above school stay open, a it means so much to our children, who are improving wonderfully in their studies and who are well contented with the facilities and especially their facilities.
By closing the above school and transferring our children to other schools we would be further to go and at the same time place them in a position where they would come in contact with the many colored children we are aware of which we are well aware would mean lots of quarrelling, as it is at present, we can accompany our children to the warriors safely without being molested by colored children, can see what it means by hav-

MOST SCHOOL HOUSES OVER 50 YEARS OLD
Only 9 of 30 Odd Colored Schools Have Been Built Since 1875
REASON FOR OVERCROWDING
101 and 112 Only New Buildings Erected in Past Six Years
The recent revolution in — by the Aro-American of the fact that the city's schools have 3 times as many colored pupils in the part-time classes as whites despite the whites being seven times more has caused much comment.
Few people know that only nine schools have been constructed for colored pupils since 1876. The present Waeche street school was built in 1877 and pupils in old Rauborg street building transferred there. The Waeche street building had to care for the whole of the West. End in those days.
About 1888 the city erected a building to house the Colored High and Grammar School. This was the one grammar school for the Race in this city in those days. The building has been occupied by the Central Police District since 1901, when the Coored High School was moe to its present location at Dolphin and Pennsylvania avenue. In order to relieve the congestion in the Washe Street building what was known as School No. was erected at Rings and Carrolton avenue. Colored teachers were installed Mr. George W. Biddle holding the male department and Miss Pannie Barbour the female. This building soon became overwhelmed to a new and larger building at Carey and School streets. The abandoned building was given to whites. The Hill street school was erected in 1893.
The Girard Avenue building was erected in 1896 or 1897 and the next was the Mount street school. The Dunbar school Caroline and Jefferson streets, which occupied a building abandoned by whites in 1890, was erected about six years ago. The pupils from old School SIX then housed in a very old structure on Bond street and Ashland avenue, were transferred there. School 112. Calhoun a n d Laurens streets, was completed during the second Breening administration. A million dollar plant for Colored High School is now in course of construction, and a new elementary school lispromised. Other buildings occupied by colored pupils since 1875, some of which were very old, were built for whites. Of course in fairness it may be said that the shifting of the population may be given as the reason for turning over structures colored pupils.

Around 5:30, he said, he heard the same noise, and revolver in hand, slipped out of bed and into the drug store to find that the burglar had gotten the window partially raised, but not sufficient to get. Dr. Green says he had the man work, and fatten himself beside the wall whenever any one, outside passed by. For a long time he stood several feet from the man, he said without his knowing it. When the burglar failed to get in, Dr. Greene called up the police who arrested Pitts.

COLORED SCHOOLS SHOW GREAT GAIN
(From the Baltimore Sun)
Index Numbers for 1923 Indicate Attendance Increase
Index numbers for 1923, yesterday issued by the State Board of Education, shows appreciable gains in four items, which contribute in computing the index number for State colored schools.
In average days attended by each child over 5 and under 18 years old the index number for colored schools is 43.7, a gain of 4.9 over the figures for 1922. The index number for the average days colored schools were kept open is $1.3, a gain of 7.8 days over 1922. The total expenditure per teacher and principal in colored schools was $35.60. This amount is $4.50 above the figure for last year. The average monthly salary per teacher in State colored schools for 1923 was $4.50, $4.70 more than the average monthly salary paid last year.

BALTIMORE COP GIVES THE POOH POOH TO ROBBED MAN
W. A. Plummer, of Philadelphia, but who formerly resided in this city, was the victim of a hold up by three white men on Camden street near the station Sunday night while waiting for his train. Mr. Plummer had been visiting in this city and had strolled up the street when a man approached him and asked him for a match. He did not have one, and then the man, according to Mr. Plummer, stepped in front and pretended to pick up something. At this moment two other men whom he had not noticed grabbed him from behind, and then they ransacked his pockets, taking his pocketbooks containing $18, his umbrella, identification cards, birth certificate and in fact, striped him clean.
Mr. Plummer says he went in search of an officer and after a time found one and told him of the holdup. The officer, says Mr. Plummer, listened to the story with the attitude that it was a fairy story and told him it was too late then to do anything. Mr. Plummer operates a radio and electric shop in Philadelphia.

Holmes Was Too Gallant—Rev. Carter Got Awfully
Mixed Up—Dixon Reports To "General"—
$80.00 In Medicine Gone
Good Morning JUDGE!
Gallantry Leads to Jail
When the sudden impulse of Robert Holmes, 236 Meryl street, caused him to act the gallant knight to two young ladies he met on Pennsylvania avenue Saturday evening, he did not know that it would lead him into the jail house. Holmes saw Misses Rebecca Robinson, 1429 Mrylle avenue and Hattie Knoble, of the same address, admiring a pair of slik hose in a shop window and butted in with the following remarks: "Do you girls like those hose?" said "We think they are just lovely, and, Oh, such a bargain" innocently answered the pair. "Well, I think arrangements can be made whereby you can have them" continued Holmes.
"Well, is that so?" retorted Miss Robinson, "and I think other arrangements can be made," as she summoned a nearby police officer. Other arrangements were made and on Sunday morning after trying to explain it to Magistrate Ranft, Holmes was sent to the lockup, where he will do a $10 and cost fine.
Assistant Pastor
What Rev. Charles Carter, 208
23rd street, assistant pastor of a
church in Northeast Baltimore,
thought was a nice little club room
turned out to be something else
Saturday night. At least that is
what the person told the Magistrate.
Policemen saw suspicious doings at
510 W. Biddles street, and decided
on a raid. When the catch was
examined at the station, lo and
behold, they had bagged among
others, an assistant pastor. According
to the officers, they had
had numerous complaints from this
place, which was occupied by Misses
Gertrude Thomas and Mrs. Bertha
Morrow. They had married Mr.
Burgess街, and Edward Robinson,
2418 N. Charles street, were also
guests.
Rev. Carter stated that he had come down on the avenue to buy a pair of shoes, and was standing in front of the house, which he took to be a lodge meeting place or club when one of the young ladies invited him inside. He accepted the invitation, he said, in the spirit that he should go into any highway when he met the ladies he were needed. He had not been in the place long, however, before he discovered that it was not the place for an assistant pastor. It was just about this time as he was talking to one of the sweeties on the second floor that the police entered. The Magistrate gave him the benefit of the doubt, but fined the

othe ramounts ranging from $5 to $25 and costs each.
Got Second Order
Charles Dixon, 507 Wilson street, started out Sunday morning on orders to report to the "Colonel of his Lodge," but wound up in the police court, where the Magistrate ordered him to report to the "General in the jail" instead.
With his sword and other paraphenalia that go to make up lodge doing he started the home of his superintendent, but stopped for a moment in a near-heer saloon to a little nip of corn. The officers found him a few moments later with his sword drawn directing traffic on the street corner.
Dixon admitted that he had imbibed of the fiery juice and the Magistrate let him down easy with a small fine.
Expected Long Life
Herbert Spence, 1117 Druld Hill avenue, evidently expected to fix himself up for a long span of life, judging from the amount of medicine he is alleged to have taken this week from Muth Brothers Drug concern. Officers making an inventory of Spence's alleged holdings found 1 case of Swamp Root, 2 cases of Father John's Medicine, 1 case of Lyda Pinkham Compound, 2 cases Sal Hepatica Compound, 1 case of all of which was valued at $70.90. He was held for the action of the Grand Jury.

The old way was to treat the effects,
to kill pain by drugging or to cut

It gets at the seat of the trouble and

CITY LAWYERS ENDORSE MR. O'CONNOR
Barristers Who Formerly Knew Him in State's Attorney's Office Pledge Their Support
COLEMAN IS UNDER FIRE
Downown lawyers are for Herbert R. O'Connor for State's Attorney of Baltimore city. Not only are they wearing the buttons on their coat lapels announcing the fact, but they have been to Mr. O'Connor in his office as People's Counsel in the Public Service Commission, and pledged him their support. An assistant state's attorney some years ago, local burristers learned to know Mr. O'Connor well, and this accounts for their unusual activity. J. Steward Davis in a letter to O'Connor stated:
"As you probably recall, I have had occasion frequently to have, opposite me, at the trial table, yourself and every member of Mr. Leach's present staff; and I wish to state, without qualification, that at no time have the activities of yourself the collaborations been influenced by the color of opposing counsel or the color of a defendant." Lawyers say there is no fault to find with the way Mr. Leach has conducted the office in past years and they are sorry to see him leave. In support of the Court, they are urging the appointment to his office of a special investigator to handle the cases of colored women and children.
Ritchie Denonnes Klam
Activities of the Ku Klux in urging the election of Alexander Armstrong for Governor on the Eastern Shore is turning hundreds of voters into the Democratic column.
Mr. Armstrong issued a statement declaring he had made no bid for Klan support. Governor Ritchie came out bodily in Salisbury last week denouncing the Klan and adding that organized and make lawless individuals opened the democratic government. Kanmen are against the Governor because he refused to allow them the use of State armories in which to hold public demonstrations, at the same time opening these armories to the Knights of Columbus bus and the colored Y. M. C. A.
Just two weeks after Governor Ritchie refused the local Klan permission to use the Fifth Regiment of the cavalry, hiding was opened to the colored public school children who hold their first annual indoor meet there. Earl Johnson, national five-mile champion ran an exhibition race.
Open Fire on Coleman
At the same time local independents and Democrats began their campaign to re-elect Governor Ritchie, they also opened fire on Mr. Campbell Coleman candidate on the Republican ticket for State's Attorney on March 4. Mr. Campbell Coleman wrote same Mr. W. C. Coleman who wrote letters to the "Sun" and to Harvard University upholding President Lowell last year when he attempted to exclude Negroes and Jews from the Freshman dormitories. While the Board of Overseers overruled the decision to all races, Democrats declared the incident was sufficient the bias of Mr. Coleman, whose native state is Kentucky.
Two Weeks Campaign
From the Democratic headquarters comes the word that under the direction Truly Hatechett, Howard Payne and others a two weeks captain will be waged both in the city and counties. Down in Charles County, Charles Thomas, formerly candidate for Legislature on the Republican ticket sent word to the Afro that he is working for Governor Ritchie. In his neighborhood are a number of influential farmers who are being urged to co-operate with him in including G. R. Wade, S. M. Ford, Joseph Washington, John Adams, Joseph King, William King, J. H. Chapman, Henry Gray, C. W. Semby, J. W. Adams, J. O. Young, Harrison Monroe, and John Coates.
Douglass Theatre Has Coal Now—Liberian President Not A Sport—Golf Clubs Not Wanted—Helping Victory Hospital
Douglass Theatre Going Strong
There was a time last season when, if you wanted to attend the Douglass Theatre you had to wear a fur coat, a pair of car warmers and a muff. The Douglass was colder than a New York flat.
This intelligence was whispered abroad by the frost-bitten patrons until things became so critical Harvey's Minstrels during their engagement not only advertised, "We have冷哥 the most this week." he had big with a big voice to announce from the stage between the acts that he personally had seen fifteen tons of coal put in the cellar on the previous Monday.
While I realize, "big boy," lied to the number of tons he saw disappear into the bin, I will admit the house was fairly comfortable that week and that week only. After that we had the same frosty condition and a little later the management decided to alternate, that is to say, one week and then the d performance and for the next two or maybe three the place would be dark. The chill was so searching even the manager declined his office in the theatre during the day in favor of the bar across the street. Later on I understand the Consolidated Gas and Electric Company became neeved about something else. The theatre, like a second-banded car, started to missing regularly. For months at a time the doors were closed. After this the public was momentarily expecting the management to do the "fire" act and sprinkle some oil around and leave a lighted candle near a pile of rubbish, but this did not materialize, the company had an agreeable disappointment in store for the public.
Mr. E. C. Brown, of Philadelphia, is still in charge of the situation, but has changed his tactics. The theatre has been supplied with a real live manager and a bank roll, and from the way they are starting in, twind, they are bound to put it over. Paint has been applied, coal is in the cellar, lights are on, big signs are on both sides of the house with a big electric one to go up in front, carpet is to be put down and the addition the last two weeks have seen excellent attractions, and it is said in the future the price of admission will be stationary, even if they present Miller and Lyles' latest fantastic attraction, "Running Wild," for thirty-five cents you can park anywhere on the first floor, and at some time during the day I believe fifteen cents will "see you go" for a balcony seat. At last it looks as if the Douglass Theatre will honor the name it bears and not just stand as a monument to our war time prosperity.
$200,000 for
Victory Hospital
The question of whether there shall be a Victory Hospital or a Provident and Victory hospital combined has been settled. A good board has been picked and a substantial treasurer, the Baltimore Trust Company, has been appointed to do dough question has not been settled.
At the present time I believe the treasurer is holding twenty-five thousand dollars, which is a very small sum of money when we consider the immensity of the proposition. The coal, gas and electric and general upkeep bills will wear that twenty-five thousand dollars out in less than it. Something must be done. We must have a first-class hospital and we must have money to run it with. As quiet as it is kept, before we go elsewhere begging for money, we haven't done our duty towards this institution. We haven't gotten available money. We haven't called on our source. We haven't called on another source with at least two hundred thousand dollars. We should all of us get behind this project.
First of all the Board should call on business houses and corporations doing business with colored people and secondly, the preachers should influence more people than any other class in the community.
To my mind, as a class, the gentlemen of the cloth have laid down and they should not do this. Their attitude is possibly the one that is strictly a doctor's affair, and they will likely argue that the doctors will get all of the "grayy" and should therefore look out for their own selves.
I say that their attitude is possibly due to the above reason, but there is probably another reason: they have been on the receiving end so long they have gotten out of the habit of giving, if they were ever in that habit. Then there are likely some who are low enough to figure that a dollar taken up in the hospital is a dollar switcher away from the main issue.
These ministers have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for church properties and equipment, and would not help put a Victory hospital upon its feet. With almost as many preachers and churches as there are bootleggers and saloons, their assistance should be felt if they will so woo little Christian princes. I might call to the attention of the board that they need not overlook the bootleggers should they run

From Monrovin Liberia comes word through unofficial channels that the Universal Negro Improvement Association allowed to hold their nineteen twenty-seventh convention in that city—as was intended. Garvey and the U. N. I. A. both were denounced by the President, it is said. It is alleged the Hon. Mr. Garvey is a cake and a swindler and has no intentions of uplifting anybody.
If President King made this statement or ruling I think he has proven himself to be very unsportsmanlike, according to American ideals and principles. We have an unwritten law to the effect you must never hit a man when he is down. President King off in Liberia must have known Marcus was in the fall house when he must know also the odds are five to one Marcus goes back to the jail when he gets his new trial. Then if it took all of the Garveyites some months to raise fifteen thousand dollars to get Marc on the pavement, what chance has the U. N. I. A. to finance a convention in Africa? Furthermore there will be no convention with the chief in jail. President King must remember the U. N. I. A. can't borrow from first the British Government, then the English Government, then the United States. I believe President King is trying to get "Uncle Sam" in a good humor preparatory to making another "touch."

The proposed new country club was mentioned last week in these columns and already it is being discussed in white circles. "Further than this a political twang has been added to it. It is said that one of the most important State Legislature is standing on a platform into which a last minute plank has been put, which does not mean the club any good.
It is said that this candidate, who has many club men in his district, has been elected to the county he is elected in the coming election in view of the new colored club, he will at his earliest opportunity introduce in the legislature, a bill which will compulsory as is the tilling of golf clubs compulsory as is the case with automobiles.

DOCTORS GIVE THEIR VIEWS ON SCHOOL CONDITIONS
Doctors Discuss Overcrowding, Dirty Lavatories and Poor Lighting in City's Public Schools

Dr. Carper Says Division St. One School Where Modern Plumbing Is Not Installed
Admitting that the schools are overcrowded, that the toilets are in bad shape and that lighting in some of the buildings is ruining the eyesight of pupils, a number of physicians gave their views to the APO-AMERICAN as to the best method of seeking a remedy.
Asked if they believed the Medical Association should take up this question at an early meeting, those interviewed gave the following statements:
Dr. S. B. Hughes, 1413 Druld Hill avenue—I think they could and should. I shall get in touch with the doctors at the Health Department and see what can be done in the matter.
Dr. H. S. McCard, 2005 Drudu Hill avenue. I think they should. All citizens should take an interest in the matter and the physicians should take more interest than the average citizen.
PHYSICIANS SHOULD AID
Dr. E. Mayfield Boyle, 425 N. Caroline street. I think it would be better to have a group of the leading physicians act on this matter. The Medical Association includes the physicians, the dentists, and the pharmacists and many do not take an active part in the Association. The Medical Association avenue. I think it would be a good thing if they did. I know of several schools where the toilets are in bad shape. Division street school is one. Dr. Jas. B. Hawkins, 912 N. Gilmore street. Yes, I think they should and I think they should carry their interests to the School Board, not to the doctors of the Health Department, because they are under the School Board, and cannot control the School Board.
Dr. J. C. Stewart, president Medical Association, 704 W. Lafayette avenue. Corso in, the Mezzo building could be the proper body to take this matter up.
Dr. Jay G. McRae, 1126 Drudh Hill avenue. I think probably the Medical Association should take some steps. I made a report on conditions of the schools two years ago. It would probably be a good thing if the Medical Association took some interest. Dr. J. G. Chissell, 1534 Drudh Hill avenue. Yes. I think the physicians as a whole should take an interest in this matter from a racial standpoint.
ALL DOCTORS SHOULD BE INTERESTED
Dr. J. R. Conway, 753 George street I think they ought to. I think every physician should be interested in this matter. Dr. R. M. Cardoza, 1524 Drudh Hill avenue. The Medical Association is perfectly defunct. It went to pieces about a year ago. There is some kind of an association being carried on, but only a few take active part.

Relatively More Coming Into Home Ownership Than Whites, Says Gen. Glenn
Raleigh, N. C., Oct. 25—North Carolina has stopped the Northward migration of the Negro workman by making him contented at home, declared William H. Richardson today in a statement issued to the New York World. In this respect, he said this Staff is in a class by itself. On a recent occasion one of the railroads from Richmond to Raleigh moved all the white men from the smoking car, turned that over to the Negroes and merged the accommodations for men and women in the single day they could leave it. If anyone has "kick" on this "jim" arrangement, it was the white man and not the Negro.
"More Negroes are coming into the ownership of farms and homes, relatively than white people in North Carolina, and especially is this true of the Eastern part of the state," said Esther C. Clune, United States Army, retired. "Are you willing to be quoted on this point" the General was asked. "Or course I am," he replied, "because it is true." There has been no special concern in North Carolina over the Negroes North. At no time has the matter reached the point where a "conference" was necessary in order to formulate plans to "take steps." The question of Negro migration has never been discussed in officialdom. The big thing claiming the attention of North Carolina officials has been the education of the Negro.
DR. SHEPARD TALKS
"The best friend the Southern Negro has is the Southern white man," said Dr. James E. Shepard, himself Negro, President of the National Training School, at Durham, which recently was taken over by the State and will be made one of four State Normal Schools for Negroes. Three have been in existence some time, one of these shortly be turned to college. Another opponent of Negro migration is Dr. James B. Dudley, President of the Negro Agricultural and Technical College of Greensboro, N.C. "We have suffered legs from Negro migration than any Southern State," said Dr. Dudley. "You ask why? I am ready to give you the real answer. It is because the Negro enjoined better education in North Carolina than in any other State, and because we receive justice in the courts."
$500 FOR A. & T.
Legislative allowances for Negro institutions of higher learning are liberal. At the last session of the General Assembly nearly $300,000 was appropriated for improvements at the Agricultural and Technical College alone, while $60,000 was appropriated for its maintenance. The sum of $49,000 was appropriated for permanent improvements at the Negro State normal schools, followed $150,000 for their maintenance. Fifty thousand dollars was appropriated to establish a home for deprived Negro boys, to correspond with an already established reformal boys, and $10,000 for maintenance.
300 ROSENWALD
On July 1 this year North Carolina had erected more than 300 Rosenwald Schools, worth $1,250,000. All these are in towns of fewer than 2,500 population and in rural districts. Of the money thus invested in Rosenwald, President of Sears Rackeback & Company; $250,000 from Negroes themselves; $45,000 through individual contributions from white people and $600,000 from public taxes. The Department of Education says this plan often insures a building worth $25,000 for $10,000 or $15,000. In 1921 and 1922 there were built in Rosenwald schools which cost $250,000. Since then $3, costing nearly $500,000, have been erected.
STATE COLLEGE
PROVIDED
With the establishment of a Negro college, North Carolina will be able properly to train all its Negro teachers. It will not be necessary then to go out of the State for any Negro teachers, or to accept any who are not properly trained. And so North Carolina, on its own initiative, is doing far more in behalf of its Negro population than the outside world has known of.

New Yorkers Sleep In Three Shifts
New York City, Oct. 18
—Explaining why nearly 1,000,000 white persons are homeless in New York while colored tenants are able to find empty apartments, the State Commission on housing was told last week that colored people are charged double the rents that whites pay.
Asked how colored people were able to pay such exhorbitant renters, witnesses identified that color renters have as many as fifteen roomers in a four-room apartment.
These roomers sleep on double or triple shifts, paying the apartment landlord enough to meet the exhorbitant rental he is charged.

'SUPERMAN TOMAN'
THIRTEENTH INSTALLMENT
The Indians were enslaved successively by the Spanish, French, English and Portuguese. There were Indian slaves from Canada to Florida. The decline of Indian slavery was due chiefly to its being an economic failure. The Indian could not stand the hardships, nor the whiskey and other diseases of the white man. Large numbers of them died from smallpox, consumption and syphilis. The Negro was introduced, supplanting both the Indian and the white, as a slave. A white slave was far more valuable than an Indian one, and a Negro more than either. A Negro was reckoned as the equivalent of five or six Indians, and sometimes brought a price nine times as high. You can find some interesting reading on this in "Studies in History, Economics and Public Law" (Columbia University, Vol. 54).
The Indians were enslaved, French, English and Portuguese from Canada to Florida slavery was due chiefly to it. The Indian could not stand the threat and other diseases of the white them died from smallpox, connec Negro was introduced, supply the white, as a slave. A wu able than an Indian one, an A Negro was reckoned as an Indians, and sometimes broke high. You can find some in "Studies in History, Economics University, Vol. 54).
"There were Indian shaves in the remainder of the New World, but here also they died off whenever they came in contact with the whites. Take the island of Jamaica. Two of the most famous of the country's aborigines, the Arawaks, ind disappeared to a man, while the Negro brought there as a slave and subjected to much harsher treatment, is today virtual master of the island. I have seen a great deal of the Negro in Nevada, Arizona and the Canadian Northwest, and I think it very much below the Negro standard."
The seminar again brought up the subject of Negro mentality and Dixon's observation from Prof. Myers, lecturer on experimental psychology at the University of Cambridge, England, in his address to the Universal Races Congress:
"The majority of the peasant class throughout Europe are essentially the same as those of primitive communities."
At this point another passenger, on his way from the observation car, entered the room. Handling a telegram to Dixon, he asked him to send it at the next stop, when the passenger brought to the subject, and Dixon read him the following from Flint: "It is trustful to maintain the theory of the mental interiority of Negroes. Twenty years of intellect work has often proved sufficient for a sojourn, Zulu, Redskin or Norwegian; the centuries of mental arrest of mental sleep experienced by his congeners. This property, common to human beings, provides them at once with a trait of inefaceable equality. The psychology of primitive peoples is the especially of Negroes, strangely resembles that of the untreated classes of Europe. Their prepossessions, ideas, and superstitions betray a similarity which draws them similarly together. The inhabitants of Negro villages in Central Africa are like the peasants living from railways in the extreme north, or the extreme south of Africa.
Lion lowered the book and said: "One in the greatest arguments advanced in support of Negro intermortality—an argument that not a few Negroes who admit—is that the Negra has been a slave. I am convinced, now, that the slave has been a primitive European people and suspected them to the same by unanimizing treatment, the result would have been the same. The great amount of ignorance in russia today is undoubtedly due to the fact that the russians were slaves for centuries. In liaison with the United States, we have since a record of slavery in America," a prominent slave speaker says (here Ionn consulted his notebook):

"Just catch a stray Irish or German girl and sell her—a thing sometimes done—and she turns a "bigger" slave than I did. I slave as if there were African blood in her veins." The more I study sociology the stronger grows my belief that the difference between one African girl and one is solely the result of environment.
"But," objected the Senator, "even in the black man's home the white man is master. Look how easy it is for small numbers of white men to rule millions of peoples of all the world, and for the black man more handful of Anglo-Saxons holding in subjection nearly four hundred millions of natives. Then, too, take the New World. What was it before the white man came here Imagine what it would be now if he had not come here. Look at China, where the white man has conquered so far and thousands of years until the white man got there. Japan owes its progress to the white race. My race has conquered so overrun every country on the globe. My race rules Europe, the whole of Africa, except one or two countries. The greater part of Asia, the entire New World and all Australia; in short, it is master of the whole world. That the world is a richer, healthier, better place to live in is due entirely to the magic of the white race." The Caucasian branch "conquered so far that advanced, generally speaking. It is the pioneer group today in nearly all lines, and will no doubt continue to be so for some time. I read admit that world progress for the last six centuries, at least, is due almost entirely to this great energy is conquered by the climate and certain other conditions that have returned the growth of most of these other peoples. The white man going to those countries, with his superior weapons for taking life; his more highly developed intellect and keener predatory instincts, developed by more advanced enemies. But he must be reinforced from time to time by fresh numbers, or he, too, is likely to yield to the spell of the environment. This is one of the principal reasons for the frequent shifting of colonial officials by the British Foreign Office. I have seen white men in the tropics sink into the lowest native, Blackburn, speaking of this says:
"In Africa the animalistic, self-indulgent white man approximates yet nearer the animal; the intellectually active, destitute of the stimulus of conversation and encounter with diverse opinion and nimble wits, becomes an intellectual fungoid. The tropes becomes less energetic, while the block one in the northern latitudes improves in energy and acquisitiveness. The Negro, say, in New York City, is much superior to the aver-

age white man in the tropics and most of our Southern States."
most of our Southern States." "But Negroes have been living in Northern latitudes for three hundred years at least," protested the Senator, "and yet from among them has not emerged one single genius; indeed, not even one famous man. Many Negroes have acquired a pseudo-fame because of pampering by white admirers and gross exaggerations by black men, who have been white men they would have passed unnoticed in the crowd."
"It is true," acknowledged Dixon, "that the Negro has been living in these northern latitudes for a long time, but under what debased conditions! Would whites have done better, think you? Look at the very large number of whites in Europe and America, too. They have hardly pulled their own weight! It is quite true, as you said, that the mediocre attainments of certain Negroes have been exaggerated because of their color, but it is not highly probable that, since these men must have had inherent ability, they would have benefited undifferentiated of color? Thus, as you see, one balances the other. Since mediocritie is a human characteristic and is to be found among peoples having the widest and fullest opportunities for advancement, why marvel at its appearance in a people who have been almost universally and apparently pressured below the level of the lowest grade of self-respect?
Yet there are many Negroes who have achieved national and international distinction, regardless of color, it is generally conceded that the most successful producer since Lincoln is Booker T. Washington. In my opinion he and Frederick Douglass are the two most remarkable figures the United States has produced. Both not only came from a lower depth than Lincoln, the other was even when they achieved fame they were always open to the attacks and insults of the lowest whites. Booker T. Washington was one of the greatest black writers and Plutarch contain no more inspiring figure than Douglass.
"There are also many Negro authors of unqualified merit, as Dunbar, Blydon, Casey Hayford, DuBois, Kelly Miller, Braithwaite and James Weldon Johnson. DuBois belongs to the aristocracy of English writers, but Braithwaite and James Weldon writers who excel him in eloquence and elegance of diction. Kelly Miller is an essayist of distinction and Braithwaite has the reputation of being the foremost critic of poetry in America. I could name dozens of others, as George Carver, William W. Hutchinson, Ubert Harrison, Claude McKay and William Pickens, who all measure us to national standards. If white America, with thousands of years of culture behind it and freer opportunity, has produced so remarkably few men of international standards, perhaps you should expect the recognized manifestations of genius from a people with the clank of the shave's chain still sounding in their ears? In two European countries, from a comparatively small number, men of Negro descent, Poushkin and Bumas, have led all the others in their respective roles.
The wind was whistling through the ventilators, blowing in small dikes of snow. Dixon arose and closed the transom.
"But the ability of these men is due to their white blood," objected the Senator when Dixon had returned. "The pure-blooded Negro is absolutely incapable of reasoning. He learns like a parrot."

A man had a toy store with a sign reading "Doll's" (fig. 1). He sold the store to a baker, who changed one letter in the sign, so that it read "Roll's" (fig. 2). The store then changed hands eight times, being owned successfully by a bird dealer, a wood-turner, a shoe repairer, an auctioneer, a fireist, another bird dealer, another baker, and finally a wood-dealer dealer, in turn, changed one letter in the sign, just as the "Doll's" was changed to "Roll's." The hardware dealer's sign read "Rakes." Can you tell what the 10 different signs said?

Games for Younger Children
Games for Younger Children
THREE DEEP
All the players but two form a double circle facing inward, one player directly behind another. There are several methods of forming the players into this double circle. One method is to have the players march in column two by two, form a circle, and all face inward. Another method is to have the players for a circle in single file then every second player step in front of his neighbor on the right. The two odd players, of whom one is runner and the other is chaser, start outside of the circle; generally one of the starting on one side of the circle and the other on the opposite. The object of the game is for the chaser to get the runner
The runner may save himself by running into the circle and stopping in front of any couple, whereupon that file having been made "three deep" the outer player or third man can be tagged, so he becomes runner and tries to evade the chaser he may save him of the same way by stopping in front of a couple. Should the chaser tag the runner, the exchange places, the runner becoming chaser and the chaser becoming runner. Both runner and chaser may dash through the circle, but may pause for a moment within the circle except when the runner stops in front of some couple. In front of the couple, confuse the play by the circle, this privilege of running thru is sometimes forbidden, all the clasing being confined to the outside of the circle.
NOTE. This is a good chasing game.

As I as going down the street the other day, by a lamp post with a tin on his cook saying, 'He am blind; pleased help.' So just as I got close to him to put some change in his cup, I was surprised to hear him say, 'Lady, I plumped up give me time. I believe you can see out of one eye.' He said, "Den give me a nickle." 2. So, I went down the street a little further and on the next corner was a man standing with a sign on him, it read, dearm and dumpl on his feet, and I was on my way to the movies. So I pitied him. So I dropped my last dime in his cup. And as I did I was taken nearly off my feet. He said, "Thank you." I said, "I thought you were deaf and dumpl." No, lady, not I; I'm only minding this place until the other fellow comes."
I said, "where is the other fellow?" He said, "Over in the beer garden listening to the music."—Calle Owens, 1312 Fedford avenue, Pittsburg, Pa.
Two strange men made friends on the first day. They talked a while elastically. One asked to be excused for a few moments. When he returned he had a very bad eye? asked his friend.
"What is the matter with your eye? asked his friend.
"Oh, it's a birth mark," he replied.
"I don't remember seeing it before."
The man didn't know what to say. So he says, I just got in the wrong birth.—Maliah Hockney, 563 Laurens street.
Customer—I want a sandwich.
Waiter—What kind?
Customer—Something real striking.
Waiter—How about a club?—Sarah Lory, Grade 7b, 529 Orchard St.

Teacher—Oh, no, that isn't right, it's neuter.
Johnny—Egg pardon, man.
But a letter's mail isn't it?—Veronica Woodward, 541 Bloom street.
There was once a set of men who did nothing but gamble.
One day they were betting a man that a colored man was tougher than a white man. One of the white men said he wore a green coat for him if a colored man would do the same. A colored man said that he would do the same.
The white man was put in the oven for one minute, but when he was taken out he was burnt to a crisp. It was now the coloured man's choice. He was put in the oven for one minute too, but when they opened the door of the oven he said "Man, shut the door, I feels a draf." Miss Amie Brown, 1501 Pressman street.

Knocks on the Men
A man will fall in love with a girl because she dresses nicely and always looks well and happy, then after they are married, he expects her to be just as well dressed as before; but if she gets anything to dress on, she has to beg for it, then shendgets half what she asks for. Although there is a new baby every year, she should always have a smile and something good to eat ready for her lord and master when he returns from a trip to town.
A man expects a woman to provide three good meals a day, keep from one to ten children fed and clothed, and buy her own clothes and his shirts and socks and such like, and have a little money always on hand to lend him, from a ladder and ladder when she has but 40 or 50 scrub clickens, and never more than two scrub cows.
Not a mont hago, I heard a man brag he hadn't worked 30 minutes in their crop this year, that his wife had made the crop, and that he intended to give her—give mind you!—live acres of cotton to children and to fix up the house. Oh, generous men, how could we live without them! Men talk about how good they are to their families, but just let friend wife ask for $10 to buy a half-way decent dress and listen to them how! A man's ideal wife is a beautiful woman who keeps a nice, clean house, is a good cook, never grumples, and is always coming; who raises $300 or $400 worth of turkeys and chickens, and is always smiling and good-natured, never spends over $10 a year for relatives, never resents the sneers and shirts cast on her people and treats his people, oh! so nice, and her husband like a little god, less, that's a man's idea to find and show her wonder to find her ideal!
I won't sign my real name, for some poor, misjudged mate will hawl me out but I haven't said half what I think—not one-tenth.

Vegetable Soup
Do you use dired lime beans in soup? Tail them about 15 minutes, then strain and and then add some garlic. With 1 onion, some tomatoes, a little cabbage chopped fine, about 2 patties, and a handful of spaghetti. A shibibone is good for this soup.
Beet Relish
This is delicious. Use 4 medium-sized, cooked beets chopped into one-half as much raw cabbage, or if cabbage is plentiful as much raw cabbage, or 1 cup sugar, 1/4 cup vinegar, 1/4 cup sugar, 1 red pepper, 1/4 cup ground mustard, salt to taste. I rounding teaspoon of flour added to the beets and cabbage, and, if desired, 2 or 3 chopped onions. Cook, stirring, and stirring, stirring so the flour will not stick. Can the relish and put it away for winter duse.

Man's False Pride
There's one woman preacher, active pastor of a church, whose husband is a traveling salesman. There's another whose husband is a steady and prosperous mechanic. A third has a husband who also is a preacher and on Sundays they go their separate ways to nearby towns to serve congregations. But such cases are rare. The reason, according to Miss M. Madison, president of the International Association of Women Preachers, is man's pride,
"A man is afraid some one will consider him merely as 'the husband of so-and-so,' says Miss Southard. "It is all right for a wife to take in washing or to be bound to the duties of her household. But many a woman of beauty and talent is kept back simply because her husband can not go the same pace with her. She isn't not complaining, and she isn't discouraged. The ministry as a calling for women is still young. She will tel you there are any about 1,700 women preachers of all denominations in the United States.
By Dr. Clifford Robinson
Persons who go to watering places to drink the water receive benefits. This is accounted for in a large part simply because they drink more water than they do at home, and as a result receive a decided tonic and health renewal.
The Japanese have a rule which requires the soldiers in their army to drink at least 2 quarts of water each day. Statistics show that the Japanese army uses more water and less medicine than any other. Maybe that's the reason.
Water is an absolute necessity for the body, and we must get it in some form or other. The body is constantly giving off moisture in some form during the whole 24 hours, then returning it during the night in the daytime in the secretion of urine, the loss of moisture in the breath, by sweat during working hours, and also often at night, the loss always going on must be renewed.
A glass of water in the morning will help carry off any secretion of during the rest period, and prepare you for a goode-tasting breakfast. Drinking with meals is all right if you don't bolt your meals.
Drink throuth the day liberally and a glass on retiring at night. A quart should be a minimum for a day. Drink enough water to offset elimination. You should drink a glassful on arising, during or before meal, and several during. Two quarts is not too much for a warm day. If in normal health, keep it up the year around. Water to excess should be avoided by those subject to drowsy, kidney and heart trouble or enfeebling disease.
Flood Tide
The tide is coming up.
And covered is that stone;
So rises, too, my hope.
And all my fear is gone.
The tide is coming up the stream.
And so may come my deepest dream.
The tide is coming up.
And brings bright hope to me;
For why should I not hope,
Connected with the sea?
Just as the tide comes up, comes up,
My tide of joy and brightest hope.
The tide is coming up.
Though downward flows the stream.
I may not cease to hope
I must realize my dream:
Just as the tide comes up, so may
Come up to me the longed for day.

Then cover with grape leaves to keep crisp and take care of any top spoilage. Wash cucumbers and wipe smooth and dry. Make a brine of 4 quarts of water and a quart salt. Fill cucumbers in the brine, cover with a weight line to keep under the brein and let stand 24 hours. Remove from brine. Put a layer of dill in the bottom of a deep crock. Add cucumbers to almost half fill the crock. Add another layer of dill and fill crock to within 2 or 3 inches from the top. Cover with a layer of dill.
Pour over a brine made of 4
quarts of water, 1½ quarts of
vinegar, and 1 quart salt. Boil
this mixture for 10 minutes. Let
stand till cool and pour over
cucumbers. The brine must con-
pletely cover the cucumbers to
prevent mold. Put a layer of
the grape leaves over the whole.

HALLOWE'EN PARTIES
When Ghosts and Goblins Grin
Halloween parties are the jolliest of all. The rooms should be weedly decorated with black and yellow crepe paper, owls, bats and cats and dimly lighted with grinning jack-o'-lanterns. correspondence cards with witches, cats, owls, jack-o'-lantern or pumpkins pasted in the corners make a good background for the Halloween en invitation.
Nothing assists the fun of Halloween costumes. If you want your party to be informal and merry be sure to tell your guests to appear in costume.
Guests Guess "Who is Who"
As every guest enters the room, tag him with a number. Then give sheets of paper bearing all of the numbers to the guests and ask them to guess who is who. A prize may be given to the person guessing the largest number correctly.
**Ghost Auction**
A good way to choose partners is by a "ghost auction." The girls are taken into a room and given boxes and pillow cases, the lace having grotesque designs drawn on them with blood grays. After being dressed in this fashion, they are led downstairs and one by one are placed on a white draped stool. Not a word is spoken and they are not allowed to be touched. Every one is revolved around slowly. The men bid for the girls.
Halloween refreshments, however elaborate, can take the place of pumpkin pie, cider, doughnuts and apples.
Press a ring, a coin, a thimble and a key into the apples. Place the apples in a tub of water. Whoever succeeds in biting the apple containing the ring is sure of marriage within the year, the coin means wealth, the thimble, an unmarried life, and the key a high position in life.

Lions Gain 37 First Downs by Rushing; Morgan Unable To Gain Single One Saturday
DARKNESS ENDS CONTEST
Final Period Is Played in
Glare of Headlights From
Autos of Spectators
Hopelessly outclassed from start
to finish Morgan College went
garnially down to defeat Saturday
before Lincoln University, a stronger
and better trained opponent, by
the score of 69-0.
The fact that Lincoln gained 37
first downs by pushing and Morgan
failed to make a single one, gives
some idea of the onesidedness. At
that Lincoln's showing was not an
impressive as it is whenever Captain
"Whitwind" Johnson is out
of the lineup. Early in the second
period Morgan became up the
Lions and is until Johnson came
back into the game did they get
again.
Darkness ended the contest. The last period was played in the glare of headlights from spectators' autos parked around the field. Only a small crowd witnessed the Lincoln compete with 15 of their heavier opponents attempted and Morgan players were worn out by their heavier opponents who made a first down on every play. No substitutes seemed to be available and the Morganists played out they had. Bill Cogan of Baltimore boy, got off several long runs for Lincoln, while Pillingham for Morgan outpainted both Crudup and Johnson. Prithitthi caught a Lincoln pass and

In attempting to kick goal, Jack Cole's failed him, the ball going wild, but because of the fact that Shaw's left end was offside, the penalty gave the extra point

They tell me Douglass Hi School won its first football game in five years. Well it was a mud battle and by the time the game was over, it was hard to tell whether the players had been playing football or throwing mud on each other.
Up near the South goal the water was so deep that it looked like Phil Williams was diving in the Druid Hill Park pool that time he went down under a fierce tackle of a Manassas end.
Captain Glascoe Mack, whose father is pastor of the Macedonia Baptist Church, led the local boys to victory. Proudly the senior Mack threw out his chest as the junior member of the family dived into a mass of Manassas green jersey and emerged with a half dozen kicking legs, including the legs of the man trying to advance the ball. The way he piled up the visitors when they tried to come around his end was a caution, and father's bosom swelled every minute of the game.
High School let two chances to score in the first half, and during the intermission they got a good dressing down by Coach Gibson, with the result that Harmon picked a half dozen forward passes out of the air, and led the local boys down the field to a touchdown. _High School missed by two goals by the drop kick route. This fact would not be significant except it shows that the team is developing the modern game.
One little bit of sportsmanship ought not to go unnoticed. Right Guard Paul tenderly lifted a Manassas player who was knocked "cold."_ He held him up, too, until his mates rescued him._ Atta boy, Paul; that's sportsmanship.
Evidently the officials did not expect the field of mud they found. Umpire Burgess wore a pair of low football shoes. Referee Hilburn had a new pair of kicks, while head linesman Webb trotted out a pair of his old army boots that laced all the way up his legs.

HAMPTON WINS IN LAST MINUTE
Hampton, Va., October 24.—A 45 yard forward pass, Hargrove to Jacobs, in the last minute of play put Hampton in a position to put over the pouchdown and kick the goal for a win over St. Paul Saturday. It was the most bitter contested game ever seen on Armstrong field and the St. Paul team under Coach Douglas, brought a team here trained to the minute in dazzling shifts and open field plays. Neither team was able to score until the last period. Then a kicking duel gave St. Paul the ball on her own, 40 yard mark. Parker forward passed sharply to Byrd, who was tackled, but got back on the pouchdown. The try for extra point failed. Score: St. Paul 1, Hampton 0.
Then came the thrills. St. Paul kicked to Hampton's 40 yard mark. Hargreave's pass to Jacobs netted 45 yards. On the next play Thatcher carried the ball to St. Paul's 3 yard line, from where William Hargreave jumped across the goal line. Jacobs kicked goal. Score: Hampton 7. St. Paul 6.

The park, which holds about 10,000 spectators, was crowded with fans watching Adolfo liqueus's Havana team play the Almandarre nine, in endeavoring to force spectators off field, a mounted sword using the flat side of his sword, incidentally inflicted a slight wound on a boy and the clash followed. Part of the fence dividing the field and stand was burned. No damage was done to the stands.

THE WHOLE TEAM STARS
Backfield Fast in Running and Aerial Game; Line Holds Well
Douglas High School shook off the jinx which has been pursuing them for five years and won its first football victory at the Black Sox park from Manassas (VA) Industrial School, 6 to 0. Led by Captain Joseph Mack, the High School boys ripped holes in the fireman's line and gave evidence of real football in their ability to handle the forward pass and drop kick. At times High School's line held well and charged low. Neither side scored in the first half. The high school threatened twice, losing the ball on one occasion on the 6 yard line. The die hard team and their half of truth teams were snaking wet from head to foot. In the second half, Russell threw two forward passes to Harmon for a 40 yard gain. Williams and Dixon added 15 yards. Manassas interfered with the next forward pass and referee Hilburn gave the high school the ball on Manassas it ripped in one rush.
Analysis of the play shows the high school made 11 first downs, Manassas, 2. High school tried 14 forward passes, completing 6 of Manassas failed in her only attempt. High school nearly scored on two

ZBYSZKO THROWS WRESTLING SIKI
ZBYSZKO THROWS WRESTLING SIKI
Abyssinian Giant Thrown on His Head, Unable To Continue
Siki Uses "Leg and Wrist Lock" To Get Fall in 31 Minutes
"Wrestling" Reggie Siki, the Abyssinian Panther, who went to the cushion with Wadek Zbyszko, the Polish champion of the Gayety Theatre here on Monday night, was dressed in 42 minutes of hard frosting. The big crowd "rooted" during the whole bout for Siki. Siki, a fine specimen of manhood, as lithe as a leopard and as evasive as a snake, went after the big Pole with a confident air and after a minute of circling, the two men grumped each other and went to Zbyszko found it impossible to hold the serpent-like Abyssinian, and at the end of 21 minutes, Siki gained a double leg and wrist lock on his opponent, forcing his shoulders to the floor. For the first fall, two looked surprised when he arrose to his feet, and the house was a bed of auplause.
After a ten minute rest, the men stepped to the mat for the second fall, and Zybyshek rushed, only to find his arms circling thin air, then went to his knees, with Sikl on his back. The two men struggled mastery of the sitter, Zybyshek obtained a firm lock and heaved upward, throwing Sikl over his head. There was a crush as the big Abyssinian landed squarely on his head about a foot outside of the mat, where he crumpled up and bylost. The impact as he hit the floor was terrific and would have broken an ordinary man's neck. and though dazed and scuttering, with the fighting instinct of his race he started toward Zybyshek, hand outstretched for a hold, game to the last. He was led to his dressing room, where it was found that though dazed and badly shaken he received no further injury. This led to the Pole, and lasted nine minutes and a half.
As the doctors examined Siki in his dressing room, he tried to rise and mumbled, "It's all in the game. I'm going back and get him." After a twelve minutes, the man in a back to the stage and the match was resumed. As Siki appeared the crowd cheered. Zbysko drove in to the attack at once, and despite Siki's weakened condition, he found it difficult to get an effective grip on the game Abyssinian, but it was seen at once. The man was taking to the head was taking to, and he was becoming weaker and weaker. At the end of two minutes, the Pole secured a head lock and was bearing Siki's shoulders to the mat when Jack Staly, the Abyssinian manager, seeing the futility of allowing the mate to grip the handle, Siki went on weighing 214 1-4 pounds. Zbysko weighed 225.
All through the match, Siki exhibited some of the best bridges ever seen in this city. A bridge is the act of standing on one's head and feet, back to the floor and shoulders raised so as not to touch the floor when an opponent has nearly earned the trot. Try as he would, Zhyszko walks and it seems to break those bridges down, and awake. Siki would slip out from under him and gain his feet.
While riding in a taxi from the theatre to the station, Zhyszko said: "I don't want to grab that kid again. He's tough. He if lives clean he'll be a great wrestler. He's young yet, and inexperienced, but he's got the makings of a champ."
When asked what he thought of Zhyszko, Siki said: "He's a strong man, as strong as a lion. I'm sorry, but he must. But if a hadn't got knocked groggy, I am sure I would have beaten him. No, I'm not in the least discouraged over my defeat. I learn a little bit more every time I wrestle. I'll keep right at it until I make good."
AFRO BASKETBALL LEAGUE
On last Saturday at the "Y" the teams composing the League held a meeting, and divided the proceeds from last year's games. The league will continue this year, and a meeting will be held Saturday night, October 27, at 8 p.m., at the "Y" to arrange the schedule which will begin Friday, November 18th. All non-professional teams are invited to join.
Lincoln-Hampton Game To Settle Championship
"Wait until you meet Hampton" yelled local fans as the heavy Lincoln University team marched roughshod to victory over the weak Morgan College team last Saturday. The Hampton-Lincoln game to be played at Black Sox proclaims Novem-ber's big football game this year, a big group of college boys who will accompany their teams, and a large crowd of alumni. It will be by all odds a big social as well as athletic event and football lovers may look for a real game, but the Thanksgiving Day fair with Howard will lose its championship aspect. It is to avoid this probability that Lincoln will bring to Baltimore everything possible to insure victory. This Saturday Lincoln meets the team and will do well to come through with the bacon.
Hampton barely beat St. Paul last Saturday, showing in the last few

How easily disposed of Livingstone, which held Morehouse to a 6-6 tie the week before. This indicates that the Washington boys ought to have no great trouble in beating Morehouse when the two meet this Saturday at American League Park in Washington.
High School surprised its supporters by winning its first victory in five years. Manassas brought to Baltimore a team which would be a wonder. Coach Gibson has a heavy team that ought to grab a victory from one of the Washington High Schools this year.
Both of the D. C. schools won last week.
Morgan College, with only a small male student body to pick from, can only meet the big colleges with any superior coach. Under present conditions it were better to play smaller schools like Storer, Bordentown, Downingtown, and Manassas.
Tuskegee, Ala., Oct. 25.—Before 4,000 fans Tuskegee played Atlanta University to a 7 to 7 tie on Washington Field, Saturday. Atlanta secured first on a series and end runs by Lang and Williams in Column carrier. The ball occurred in the second quarter.

Philadelphia, 1 p., Oct. 25.—Before a record crowd, Hilldale wound up her baseball season by defeating the Athletics 9 to 4. Cookell and Winters pitched for the Darryl champions, and held the game away. This makes two out of three games for Hilldale in the series.
Hilldale was first to score when Judy Johnson knocked a homer over the left field fence. Lundy and Stevens played a brilliant game around short and second. In Hilldale's half of the fifth inning, and when the smoke cleared away four runs had crossed the plate, and they were leading, five to two. To make sure of the game four more runs were added in the seventh.

New York, Oct. 24—Jack Johnson is the only ex-heavyweight champion fighter who, had he met Dempsey in his prime, stood a chance to come out victorious. This is the verdict of Jimmy DeForest, the "champion maker" and world famous trainer, in an article published by Press Publishing Company today. De Forest says: "These opinions and memoirs of mine would be unworthy of your attention if they were not carried out with full honesty and sincerity. That being the case I must go on record as saying that I think the greatest fight in ring history would have occurred if Johnson had met Dempsey. Of course, time has preserved a match. Johnson loved bowed to Dempsey become unremembered.
Monday marked the opening of the third annual school boy soccer tournament. School 116 won from 113 by a score of 2 to 0, both goals being made from penalty kicks. The two teams were evenly matched, but both very plainly showed lack of
But Johnson is the one heavyweight champion of all that I have known who was in his time comparable to Jack Dempsey as a finalist in the sport, and both men owned "everything." They hit like pile-drivers, could take punishment, endurance and added to dazzling speed the ability to strike from any angle of body. And they had a treadless pair of legs and nipple pair of feet.
School 101, lightweight champions of 1922, defeated school 110 in the second game 4 to 0. The difference between a well coached team and one without practice was very apparent in game 110, when the foul was mildly. Two penalty kicks and two clean goals scored by J. Booker, 101's outside, right forward, ably aided by good teamwork spelled defeat for 110.
Johnson was the greatest defensive fighter that ever lived. And he knew just how for a punch had to travel. In this respect he had no equal among the other heavies and was a wonderful in accuracy as Joe Gams. He was remarkable at recuperating himself while actually fighting in rings without a hand or arm and had been hurt. It has become the fashion almost entirely now for a fighter when he has been hard hit and feels himself slipping or dazed, immediately to fall into a clutch and hang on till he gets back his breath and steadies himself. This is good enough strategy in desperate circumstances, but just the same it is always an unmistakable signal to your opponent that he has stared up, go or at, and has hurt you badly.
A total of 19 teams, 11 lightweight, and eight big teams, of 18 players, should make for soccer fans a tempting program as no doubt as the season advances and the strongest teams meet some spirited and hotly contested games will result. Schools which have entered teams follow:
Lightweight Division, 100 pounds and
nose; Nos. 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 108,
109, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116,
Heavyweight Division, 100 pounds and
nose; Nos. 100, 101, 101, 104, 110, 112, 113,
114, 115, 116
The following schools are not represented: No. 100, 118, 118, Morrell Park, Fairfield, Brooklyn, Laundryville, Mt. Washington, Caxton, Arlington and Roland Park. Plans are under way to form a six or eight team league among the various classes at the high School. If such a league can be formed, the team can and robbins must. Then, each team in the league will meet every team once. The team winning the greatest number of games will receive medals.

Of course, the time came when his endurance broke completely and he could no longer hide the real state of his body. Control his wobbly legs. Equally, of course, if Johnson had trained properly for the fight Willard never could have been returned a champion. But after coming up the roughest road that any heavyweight had to travel for the title, denied opportunities to show his class and worth as a fighter again and again, when Johnson was in the throne his chance at success was complete and pliable. For it is a pity to see a man willfully destroy so wonderful a creation of body, brawn and agility as that which Johnson once possessed.

"I suffered with nasal catarrh since 13 years old. It gradually extended to my stomach and I became a complete wreck. Tried everything, even change climate. Understand Utah, Colorado. No relief. Finally a lady in Philadelphia advised me to try Pe-ri-luna the great catarrh remedy. I began right away.

JOHNSON NEXT TODEMPSEY
Jimmy De Forest, Veteran Trainer, Puts Black Jack Second on List of World Champions
Greatest Fight of Century Would Have Been Between Johnson and Dempsey
Johnson's method was entirely different. He was a great actor at hiding any sign that he was in distress. And instead of falling into the arms of his antagonist and hugging to escape punishment, he pursued a previous series of feints of a character that made the other man think Johnson was on the point of attack. Nearly every time John opponent, scoring the double advantage would succeed in holding off his bite of giving his head a chance clear and his face from the other fighter the fact that his blow or blows had done any damage at all. In no condition when he fought Willard, Johnson managed to conceal from his bulky contender and the sharp-eyed men he the fact that he allowed him to be a boaten man. He really was all in by the tenth round of the Havana battle, but his skilful feinting staved off for many rounds thereafter Willard's final crashing attack.

If any doubt existed in the minds of colored voters as to where the Ku Klux Klan stands in the present Gubernatorial campaign the public announcement this week of the Maryland Grand Clycops calling on the "Invisible Empire" to defeat Governor Ritchie will certainly expel that doubt.
This taken together with the studied silence of candidate Armstrong and his associates on the Klan subject indicates that the Klan is not only against Ritchie, but for Armstrong. That settles it so far as every honest and decent Negro vote is concerned. For unless there is forthcoming an unmistakable, straight from the shoulder repudiation of Klan support on the part of the Republican leaders, only such candidates on this ticket that personally show their colors can hope to get the support of any self-respecting colored voter.
This is a matter in which there can be no equivocation. The importance of party lines fades into insignificance in comparison to the principle of law and order involved and the fact that for any reason a candidate should cringe and waiver before these cowardly assassins of constituted authority, makes it all the more imperative that every Negro vote available be registered against it election day.
Now that the issue is clear cut; now that a vote may mean either an endorsement or repudiation of the Ku Klux Klan, this phase of the campaign is bound to be the dominant thought in the minds of colored voters.

Announcement that the date of the long heralded "Sanhedrin" has been set and the probable meeting place will be Chicago, will serve to once again bring to the forefront the need for establishing a definite racial program.
The problem of racial unity, however, is such a big one and the factors so many and varied, that delegates attending this gathering will face the greatest task of their lives. Its success depends on a conservative program unanimously adopted.
One outcome of this conference will be to establish a new era in Negro leadership. Up to the present Negro leaders have developed out of individual movements. We have had able lieutenants, each marshalling the forces of some individual effort, but we have had no great generals directing these numerous forces.
The centralization of racial leadership is bound to meet opposition of those agencies which have built up strong individual movements, and of those individuals with selfish motives, but if through such breakers and rocks this movement is able to steer its bark, it will go down as the real beginning of a very important phase of Negro history.

If ever, as Luther Burbank suggests, races of men apply the same laws of biology to human development that they apply to produce better varieties of animals and plants, the American Negro will have an advantage far ahead of any race on the face of the earth. Never before has there been centered in one group such a variety of racial bloods and qualities. Here is truly the real American melting pot. Here the blood of the unconquerable and grim American Indians mingle with that of the easy-going and good natured descendants of men made languid by the tropical sun of Africa. Here the hot blood of Spain is chilled by the cold Quaker blood of New England and that of the South mingles freely with the romantic touch of the golden West. Men and women of every race and clime contribute to the composite Afro-American group.
Unconsciously the various qualities, good and bad, have been influencing the progress, aim and aspiration of the race, but think of the possibilities of a definite racial program when the best of all the Negro has developed becomes the standard aim of every boy and girl and when they will have the conscious knowledge that they are shaping a new and vital race of men.

If Negroes throughout the world need a practical object lesson of what is possible for a brown-skinned race of men; or if argument were needed to explode the time worn theory of innate superiority of white civilization, Japan certainly supplies that lesson and argument.
Within thirty days after receiving the most staggering blow ever directed by nature at mankind perhaps since Noah's flood, these dauntless men and women announced to the world that they were ready to resume business as usual.

If ever a race of men faced impediments in their maren towards a place in the sun it has been the Japanese, for besides looking white civilization squarely in the face, they have had to surmount the most severe natural disadvantages of any group of people on the face of the earth.

He joined the insurgent army as a private in 1885, and was sent to Cuba as a leader soon brought him to the front, making him second only to the great Gomez. Under his skillful leadership the Cuban guerrilla La Galettei and his campaign in Baracoa in 1878 showed masters generalism, as did his utter rout of Santiago de Cuba. His generals refused to sign the peace of Zanjon. His achievement with the Pinar Province, and his battles at Paralillo and Jobita are among the most brilliant feats in the history of Cuban history. While crossing the trochea between Miranda and Mariel, in December, 1896, attended only by his staff, he was surrounded by a Spanish force.
55—Did a Negro operator ever send
a Radio program for a Negro
program?
The first program to be sent out by a Negro operator for a Negro club that had complete charge of the affair went out from the club, under the auspices of the Bannuer Radio Club on June 24, 1923. Roland Carrington was the operator, and the artists were Laccheri String Quartette; Morris L. Daydige, Lilian H. Daydige; Lillian H. Daydige; Wilson, parish; Henry Pratt, violin; Wilson, parish; Hodsey, tenor.
57—Whose work is the oil painting, "The Birth of Christ," that hangs in the Union Station of Kandahar.
In the Union Station of Kansas City, Missouri, hang the oil painting, "The Birth of Christ." Recently a group of noted art critic J. David Hunt insisted that the canvas was "old Italian" or the work of an artist who had received his training from the old Latin Masters; but they were thoroughly astounded. The artist, and former co-miner, was presented to them as the artist. The critics declared that the figures, depicting the Christ child lying in the manger, were perfect; and former co-miner were perfect, as was the accuracy in shading and proportion of the foliage and the other background.

Hy WM, N, JONES
The most valuable thing about religion is the opportunity it gives to people to find hope. This call to the Supernatural—this blind faith that lifts men and women above the struggle of this world is the key to the church the most influential institution on the face of the earth. Why destroy this hope in the millions of human breasts in the only spark of real happiness.
What Housing Mean's
A goodly number of girls and young women in New York City, it is said, have no definite place they call home. Housing conditions have literally crowded them out into the streets and open night life of Harlem where they pick up here and there a place to rest or dure during the day. When you read the above also render this: Down in a crowded section of Harlem a Negro proprietor of a certain eight apartment building rent from $30 to $500 within the space of one year. A woman with one child and no husband and who earns $65 per month rented a flat in this house a few weeks ago for the rent for $30. She will submit her spare rooms and will be compelled to charge accordingly. These raising funds have been caused solely by the fact that the law prevent landlords from creating inhuman conditions like this. Some day the Government may think it a wise thing to do the same thing with city landlords as it has done with farm boots.
The Lesson Of the Mark
Colored people can learn valuable lessons from what is happening in Germany, and especially from what has happened to the Mark. A penny worth $1.25, a quarter worth $2.50, and a mark was worth 24 cents. Today one penny will buy more than a million paper marks, and they are likely to pass completely out of existence as a momentary item, but hold a million marks in currency, or $250,000 a few years ago could not buy now a two-cent stamp with the money. But there are still marks in circulation. THEY THAT OWN THE LAND, THE MINES, THE FACTORIES have actually gained by the crash of the Mark. They that must depend on wages alone must suffer, for they are paid, they precisely worthless. Rising young men and women should get it firmly rooted into their minds that LAND and PRODUCTIVE INDUSTRIES are the only substantial form of capital that may present of possibility that even the present American dollar may some day be as worthless as the German mark. Ten years ago no German would have believed the mark had humbled to its present value.
"Liberalizing"
The Y. M. C. A.
Out in Cleveland, Ohio, the Constitutional Convention of the Y. M. C. A. is considering a resolution aimed at liberalizing the requirements for membership in this organization. The resolution proposes to change the present membership test which at present admits only members in good standing in some Christian church, and allow any young man of suitable character to become a member. The resolution would reference to the Scriptures and to Jesus Christ as Divine, and calls for a simple declaration of purpose to become a member in an evangelical church.
This "liberalizing" spirit that is becoming evident in many religious bodies may have soome good points, but it also presents a challenge to place this effort to cut the very heart out of the one beacon light of real religion working among young men outside of the church itself. The church will need a background will soon degenerate into a social club of doubtful merit. The next step will probably be to liberalize the church so that belief in Christ and the will not be forgotten by members.
Real American
**Cooking**
When the Hon. Tad Lord George asked to be given a typical American dinner, whoever took him to the Waldorf Astoria and had the noted French chef Oscar prepare the dinner, he repressed American cooking, but caused Lord George to miss something.
What they should have done was to have taken the Honorable Mr. George into the heart of the city to look for the holdout. When you look for real American cooking, like real American music, the only place to find it is where it comes from the heart, soul or experience of some colored man or woman.
What Lord George missed was some good old Southern fried chicken done as original "Aunt Jemima" can do it, and some golden corn baked biscuits with "opposum and sweet potatoes" such as these experts in the culinary art usually create, this would back to Europe with something on his mind that he never would have forged.
The Stricken
Measures taken by this country for the relief of stricken Japan are said to be unparalleled in history. The State has relied on foreign distress in these last bitter years, has surpassed itself. The whole America a public seems to have been moved by one man, Mr. Yamaguchi, to allen race and eager to alleviate its suffering. And it is a race lately thought of as hostile. The mercy to help Japan in trouble is just as real as would have been the eagerness to win if the nations had drifted into war through blundering statesmanship. And far more could and medical could ever have been to either country. Helping Japan, America helps itself. The gifts of goods and money and service are easily spared. Japan has a robust in international good will and material profit, though few are thinking of that now.
Industrial
Statesmanship
Governor Pinchot, of Pennsylvania, has stopped the anthracite coal strike before it was fairly well begun. His action reveals what a state executive can do if he has questioned how did he do it? Did he call on the Federal courts? No. Did he call on the troops? No. He simply called on common sense. He couldn't mine coal without miners' injunctions and threats and rifts wouldn't take the place of miners. So he couldn't propose a settlement on the operators' terms and expel them. So he could however, propose a settlement on the miners' terms and compel the operators to accept or get out of the way and allow the State to mine the coal. There obviously was a problem. Pinchot couldn't see the justice of their whole demand, but he saw sufficient to justify his course. A week of moral pressure, the only kind of pressure he encountered, entailed him to win them over to his program of partial relief.
So cool will be mined. The eastern States will not suffer and the country has seen something new in industrial statesmanship.
Pope Wars on Fashion
The campaign of the Vatican against immodestly dressed women continues. The latest move is the posting of a Vatican order in all low-waisted and short-sleeved gowns to receive communion. The order followed the news that women at bathing beaches were attending churches lightly clad, and sometimes merely throwing a dressing gown over their heads in the way of preparation for church.
KELLY MILLLER SAYS
The Old-Time House-Servant and Field Hand Two Different Types of Slave, Says Kelly Miller. Today the Sons of Field Hands Are Radical Thinkers, the Sons of House Servants Are the Conservatives
House Servant
The late John H. Durham, some time minister to Hayt, wrote an article for the Lincolnenc Magazine a number of years ago, in which pointed out the need of the field hand and house servant as divergent factors or the Negro race. The more near in appearance and docility of mind were set apart for close household affairs of the manor. While the crude, tough, rebellious of spirit were relegated to the quarters or sold to the slave tamer in the remoter regions. The threat was executed to sell the suburban-willed recalcitrant 'down
The household contingency was given the lighter work and sheltered from the rougher experiences of the crude and uncounty field hand. Close contact with the land classed as classified refinement, and made them feel a certain sense of aloofness and superiority to their courser fellows in the field. The old Negro house servant naturally enough, reflected their mistress's mistress and assumed even a certain sort of dignity. The master and mistress regarded them with a condescending compliancy which made slavery all but agreeable to both parties concerned. There was little cruelness, even of treatment towards them.
It is hardly human nature to mistreat those who administer to ones personal comforts. The model Storery might have existed until now if the master and his and the mistress and her maid had been the only parties. But the field hand was banished to the quarters without contact or personal relation to the master. His physical powers were exerted, and his abilities were not taken into calculation. The slave driver and the overseer constituted the point of contact between the races. These were drawn into the white whites, who possessed little more culture and refinement than the Negroes themselves. With them it was a word and a blow. The whip and the instruments of persuasion were
The Field Hand
The field hand had no opportunity to develop any of the graces or refinements of mind. There was but a thin wall of partition that separated him from the condition of savagery from which he had been snatched. The only compensation was in the preservation of his tough rebellious spirit. There were some whom the overseer's club subdued completely and crushed out every vestige of manly resistance.
On the other hand, there were others whom from prudence and tradition the overseer did not dare to touch. The vigor of manly resistance was respected, even in the slave. The house servant excelled in manners; the field hand in courage, The one was pleasing and attractive, the other course and uninviting. In the one was found submissiveness of spirit, the outcome of kindly domestication; in the other the unconquered spirit of untamed and untufed human nature. To add to the wildening gulf between the two groups of slaves, the master was prone to recruit the ranks of the domestics from slaves of mixed blood.
At the time of emancipation the race was composed of these two groups, between whom was the most unrestful and inhumaneousness. The household class, as was natural affected to assume something of the lordly attitude towards well-educated villagers the master class had assumed towards them. This internal maladjustment had to be straightened out before the race could be normalized to the common condition which it had to face.
Types Still Persist
The careful student who studies carefully the origin and persistence of social values can trace existing social values to the anthem differentiation. The house servant type of character still persists. Education and change of condition have not been able to submissiveness to the white lord and master is still in evidence. The well-mannered, highly favored colored man, likely as not, brings forward the man to the good and faithful servant in the household of a benevolent bondage. On the other hand, the rough and impatient man and injustice apt to come from the cornfield type whose reactions are not restrained in a congenial yieldance that case and benefit may follow submission. The household, group, is more apt to show deference to the white man's point of vino and to have less concern in the capacity of his own race. The Field hand type is disposed to display an amazing self-belief, and confidence unburrowed by the plain manifestation of fact.
The magnificent concrete
achievements of the white
man do not unnivee him. His
self-bell is all unbelter-
able.
No City Leaders
The household contingency fourished in the city; the field hand in charge of the duces a race leader. We took to the country for relief and deliverance. Manhood. Homelessness. Domesticated race is doomed to semi-servility. A selfassertive race can only rise to the level of high achievement and renown. As the cleavage between the races widens and deepens there will be fewer and fewer the mollifying influence of the household touch
will grow weaker. The field hand brand of independence will assert itself. Numbers will dominate the minority; courness will dominate the minority; will bellieve mimicry; hoorbourish will yield to the eminences of courtesy and good sense.
Some ambitious graduate student in sociology will find a fetter to the origin, growth and development of the two streams of tendency of these two racial groups, and their influence and effect upon progress and destiny of the race.
As to Leo Frank
Posthumous evidence has been discovered which goes to show the innocence of the Georgia Jew, who was the victim of race passion and wrath. The deed has been done. The thirst for blood has been appeased. The guilt or innocence of the victim hones but little. The proused hatred of the victim. Racial identity sufficef for individual identity. A mob is an infuriated mass of human being. When the devil was cost out of the manic and entered into the swineherd, it forthwith drowned itself in the depth of the sea. Just as the demonical possession tormented the victim, days of old, so it infiltrates the mob today. A Jew, it was declared, had laid violent hands on an Anglo-Saxon girl; some Jew rage, some Jew rage. The visit of wrath was not poured out upon the head of the individual but upon the race. There are no qualms of conscience if the mistake is discovered. The ends have been met, and that sufficef.
The wrath of race against race is the most violent and uncontrollable passion that afflicts the human mind. It is the source of this evil obsession. When once this demon has taken possession of the soul it poisons the fountain of all higher impulse and leaves the nature saturated with malignity and violence.
The meenest type of all devils will not be excused. The rather associates with himsine and evil spirits, and will infest their abiding place and the last lot of that people is worst than the first. A people thus afflicted becomes incapable of the infested souls behind all other peoples of Anglo-Saxon breed in art, science and the higher pursuits of the mind. It will continue to be the devil of race wreathe. The perpetrators are to be plotted rather than the victim. Every white man in the South will be the devil of race wreathe is to the white race rather than the Negro. A few victims, guilty or guiltless, constitute a comparatively insignificant injury estimated near 100,000. According to the inexorable laws of retributive justice, the red harm done to the deer is far more to be dreaded than the direct harm done the intended victim.

The Kicking Mule
There was a man in our town whose name was Simon Sick. He owned a mule with dreamy eyes, oh, how that mule would kick. He'd shit kick and eye and shit his tail: He'd greet you and shit, smile that he'd telegraph his leg and make you half a mile. He would kick as quick as lightning; he had an iron jaw, he was just the thing to keep around, to tame your mother-in-law. His skin was gutture; his hoof was hard back; he would raise you as a feather and stand on your head.
He bit a tom cat in two and pulverized a hog; he dissected seven chinamon and killed a white dog. He stopped the dog and kicked it out of sight. He kicked the skating rink apart at 9 o'clock one night. The skaters standing on their heads were gasping for their breath. He poked his hind legs down his throat and kicked himself to death.
