ATROCIOUS ACT LEADS QUICKLY TO ARREST
Hampton Harris, 57, Is Held Charged With Rape of 13-Year Old Child
The 29th case of criminal assault on young girls in this city was sent for court action this week when Hampton Harris, 841 Boyd Street, was committed from the Western district for rape on 13-year-old Margaret Carter, 837 Boyd street, an inbreedie.
The assault against the Carter child was an atrocious one in that because of a congenital paralysis she was powerless to mug over a noise while the crime was being committed. A cripple for life. Margaret is said to have the mind of a 2 year old and is cared for by her mother as if she was still an infant.
Mother Grapples Assault.
To the fact that the little girl, because of her paralysis, cannot talk, the crime might never have come to light but for the fact that her mother. Mrs. Elizabeth Harris, came into the home while the assault was taking place. The girl had been left with a small brother of three years when Harris, who visited the home occasionally as a friend, came to what he hoped had brought the mother of the child arrived is not known but when she entered, Harris, having overpowered the girl, had partially accomplished his purpose.
Mrs. Carter beat Harris over the head with a stick and when he refused to release the child with him, Harris, had finally police and her not to tell the police for fear he would be sent to the penitentiary.
Crying and yelling, Mrs. Carter sought aid of neighbors and later caused Harris's arrest. He was looked up at the Western Police Station. Indictment by the grand jury followed and he was held for the action of the Criminal Court. David Carter, the girl's father, was also away from home when the affair took place. Two other children, a boy and a sister, 15 years of age were also away.

May Be State Senator
(By The Associated Negro Press).
Chicago, Ill., Dec. 4—Illinois may have its first Negro senator, as the result of a fluke. In the recent judicial election held in this city, the name of W. G. Ackman, the Negro senator, wrote a letter asking a ballot as a successor to Samuel Ettelson, of the second district, resigned although no vacancy had been announced and no call for a special election had been issued.

COLORED LAD WINS NATION- WIDECONTEST
New York, December 4.—Counter P. Cullen, a student at New York University, has won second prize in the Witter Bynner undergraduate poetry contest, according to an announcement from the Poetry Society of America, under whose auspices the contest was held.
Cullen was one of the 700 undergraduates, representing sixty-three colleges and universities, entered in the competition. The judges were Carl Sandburg, Alice Corbin and Mr. Bynner, all white, Cullen received one vote, while the other two chose Maurice Lessman's "In the Range Country" as the winning poem. Lessman represented the University of Chicago.
Cullen's topic was "The Ballad of the Brown Girl." The poem is 200 lines in length. Its theme is:
Oh, lovers, never barter love
For gold or fortile lands,
For love is meat and love is drink,
And love heeds love's command.
And love is shelter from the rain.
AWAKEN
and soiling stormy skies;
and soiling off love must break his
heart
And rue it till he dies.
Cullen is the son of the Rev. Frederick A. Cullen, of 234 West 131 Street, pastor of the Salem Methodist Church. He is 20 years old and a student in the junior class of the College of Arts and Pure Science. Many of his contributions have been printed in various
magazines. His writing first attracted attention when he was a student at De Witt Clinton High School. He offered the neatly printed offer by the Federation of Women's Clubs. His effort for that contest took the form of a parody on Alan Seeger's "I Have a Rendezvous With Death," which Cullen called "I Have a Rendezvous with Life." This poem follows:
I have a rendezvous with Life.
In days I hope will come.
Ere youth has sped and strength of mind.
Ere youth has growdumb;
I have a rendezvous with Life.
When Spring's first herdsum herm.
Sure, some word cry it better far.
So that days in sleep.
Than face the wind, the road and rain.
To heed the falling deep.
Though wet, nor blow, nor space, I fear.
Yet I see I deeply too.
Lest Death should greet and claim me
I keep Life's rendezvous.
Cullen says he is interested in poetry for poetry's sake and not for propaganda purposes. "In spite of myself," he adds, "however, I find that I am actuated by a strong sense of race consciousness. This grows upon me, I find, as I grow older; and although I struggle against it, it colors my writing. I fear, in spite of everything I do. There have been many things that have hurt me, and I find that the surest relief from these hurts is in writing."
Cullen, who has another year at New York University before receiving his degree, plans a teaching career, after graduation.

History Asso. To Issue Its First Blue Book
```markdown
```
Washington, D. C., Dec. 6—The first "Blue" book, a report on the free Negroes in the United States for the year 1830 is soon to be issued by the Association for Study of Negro Life in History, to which Dr. Carter G. Woodson is director. This report will give the names of colored people who were heads of families in 1830 in this country, where they were living, how many were in each family, how many slaves each owned and what relation these free Negroes sustained to the white people. The report covers also the statistics of absentee ownership of slaves by whites. The first volume of the report will be published within the next six months. Using it as a basis, the director will make further investigation of the free Negroes to determine their economic status, their social position, the attitude of the southern whites toward this class, and the opinion of the North with respect to them as citizens.

THE PRESIDENT URGES
Coolidge Says:
1. Legislation against lynching.
2. Aid for Howard Medical School.
3. Interracial Commission to formulate plans to solve race problems.
Washington, D. C., Dec. 7.—In his message read to Congress yesterday, President Coolidge said in part: "Unnumbered among our population are some 12,000,000 colored people. Under our Constitution their rights are just as sacred as those of any other citizen. It is both a public and a private, duty to protect those rights. The Congress ought to exercise all its powers of prevention and punishment against the bidden crime of lynching, of which the Negroes are by no means the sole sufferers, but that they furnish a majority of the victims.
Already a considerable sum is appropriated to give the Negroes vocational training in agriculture. About half a million dollars is recommended for medical courses at Howard University to help contribute to the education of 500 colored doctors, needed each year. On account of the migration of large numbers into industrial centers, it has been proposed that committee be created, composed of members from different companies, formulate a better policy for mutual understanding and confidence. Such an effort is to be commended. Everyone would rejoice in the accomplishment of the results which it seeks. But it is well to recognize that these difficulties are to a large extent local problems which must be worked out by

LINCOLN-HOW'D RECEIPTS ARE $10,000SHORT
Official Report Shows Only 12,000 Tickets Collected With $15,000 Cash on Hand
PROBE MAY BE STARTED
Criticism Directed at Handling of Big Crowd; One "Cop" Got $360
A big ticket scandal involving a shortage of at least $8,000 is the outgrowth of the Howard-Lincoln football game in Philadelphia Thanksgiving Day. Daily newspaper men accustomed to estimating the crowds which attended the baseball games in Philadelphia National League Park estimated Thursday's crowd variously. Size of that crowd put it as high as 38,000 to 40,000. The lowest estimate was 20,000. The official report of the statistics of the game given the AFROAMERICAN today by Dr. W. G. Alexander, graduate manager of Lincoln University, who handled all the financial matters connected with the game, shows tickets collected from only 12,000 spectators and received estimates that 1,000 persons were admitted free, "because of inadequate police protection."
Newspaper Estimates
Attendance (minimum).....20,000
Receipts.....$28,000*
Cost of Park.....$28,000*
Rain Insurance.....$275
Other Expenses.....$3,000
Howard's share (40 per ctl.) $7,400
Lincoln's share (50 per ctl.) $11,100
These figures are for the minimum attendance. Estimating on 30,000 attendance, the receipts should have been $77,500.
Official Figures.
Dr. W. G. Alexander's report shows:
Attendance (paid).....12,000
Receipts.....$15,000*
Cost of Ball Park.....$3,200
Rain Insurance.....$275
Other Expenses.....$4,400
Howard's share (40 per ctl.) $3,400
Lincoln's share (50 per ctl.) $5,100
Shortage Is $10,000
Difference between amounts reported by Dr. Alexander and estimated figures based on the size of the crowd. Indicate the shortage to be at least $10,000. If Dr. Alexander's figures are correct then at least 5,000 persons must have encountered the ball park without paying. Dr. Alexander did not personally supervise the sale of tickets at the gate and the employees of the park, and to the policemen. Only three of the eleven entrances to the park were open. All others were locked. When the crush at the gate became too great, policemen themselves took money from fans, who could not get near the ticket window. Hundreds walked thru without any tickets, and many who purchased tickets did not have them taken up at the gate. One policeman on duty at the gate was so brazen in collecting money from fans that he was stabs by Lincoln inument and found to have $360 in his pockets. Another "cop" is said to have gotten $600 and still another was heard to admit he had gotten $25.
Alumni Aroused
Alumni of both schools are around over the poor arrangements for handling of the crowd, the lack of ushers and the small receipts reported. Alumni from Southern States and the far West who bought tickets months in advance were unable to find their box or grand stand seats occupied by others who had general admission tickets only.
Dr. Scott Won't Talk
Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Harvard University, when asked today whether Howard would accept $3400 as its share of the receipts of the bliz game, refused to discuss the matter. He said he would not, in his official "I have nothing to say now," he told the AFRO-AMERICAN.

REGULAR SHIPMENTS OF Real ALAGA Cane Syrup
DUAGA
SYRUP
Regular shipments of Real ALAGA Cane Syrup are now being received in Baltimore right from where the Sugar Cane grows. It is fasting fast to make "Real Cane" Jib Hot Cakes and for Biscuit-or those who know its goodness, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and Alabama especially prefer it over all other syrups; and can tell you about the "goodness" of Real ALAGA Cane Syrup. Then too for fancy baking and candy making it has no equal.
ALAGA Cane Syrup is the entire juice of the Sugar Cane plant boiled down to syrup, with nothing added, except a very small portion of corn syrup to prevent sugaring in the can.
The quality is therefore near that of maple syrup at only half the price, but with a very different flavor.
Ask your grocery for the Real ALAGA Cane Syrup. If he does not have it, ask him till he gets it for you. Until then the following stores can supply you:

Mrs. C. Cates,
Mesick, Mich.
Her letter reads: "I have used Pe-ru-na for several years and it has helped me in many ways. It is good for colds, stomach trouble and to improve the appetite when taken three times a day. I am 78." Used intelligently for catarrh and diseases of a catarrhial nature, Pe-ru-na seldom fails of the desired results. Coughs, colds, nasal catarrh, stomach and bowel disorders are among the commoner diseases for which Pe-ru-na has proved its value.
Careful housewives and mothers make a practice of keeping a bottle of Pe-r-u-na in the home for emergencies.

The Be-Nect cap will "unkink" the most unruly head of hair. Spiteful twirls succumb to the soft, yet resistless, pressure of the mesh. It is an indispensable sanitary measure in housework.
FOR CHILDREN
Mothers everywhere are using the Be-Neet cap to train their children's hair. The kiddies' kinky strands are soooo down. Worn out, they are good for training. The Be-Neet cap is Nature's first aid in training children's ears.

Permanent Hair
The Be-Neet cap is an open woven cotton mesh, light, strong, and sanitary.

It is easily washed. An all-purpose elastic latherer and a range of sizes can be fitted to fit men, women and children.

TOP THAT COUGH
The Cosmopolitan Club met at the home of Mr. Wellington Ridout. After "select readings from Wells" "Outlines of History," excellent radio pickups from Atlanta, New York, and St. Louis, gave a new target to the snappy refreshments.
An English Export Chemist of 33 years experience. A Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts of London, has at last after considerable experimenting perfected a bleach that is guaranteed to positively lighten the skin several degrees after a few applications. This preparation beautifies, rejuvenates and clears the skin of all blemishes, closes the pores, tones down wrinkles and brings that youthful appearance that every one admires. This wonderland bleach and originally by this English Expert at the request of Latin Americans who wanted a preparation to lighten their skin. Though only introduced in America, a short time, it has already proved a great success among Middle and Mulatto people. Guaranteed to be absolutely harmless.

A domestic drama of New York life—Wall Street and its frenzied finance; Riverside Drive and its wealthy homes; Fifth Avenue and its fashion shops.
What is woman's end of the marriage partnership? Just to bear the drudgery of it all? Or is she entitled to a Say in her husband's business? "The Silent Partner" answers all.
The stage attraction which Manager Burke has selected for the week's fare at the Douglass is Tim Moore's Chicago Follies, an aggregation of a dozen entertainers headed by Tim, the king of blackface minnows. The sketch entitled "Rosie's Wedding," has to do with the attempt of two young lovers to clope and the bitter opposition of the father. The latter locks the girl in a room and leaves the key in charge of Jake the hired boy. Moorh takes this part, and his original act is appropriate with culminate in his telling of a fable to Rosie's father and mother of a Rosie who likewise tried to clope fifty years before, fitting the action to the movement of the present young couple kept the audience in an uproar of merriment. The other members of the company have little to do as Rosie may have imagined, an entire duration of the show, but they are not missed for Moore is the "whole show." In any company.
Those who did get chance to do a bit were: "Willie" Singleton, who sang the "Log Cabin Home Blues" to a big hand (which was well deserved, for she is a comer) and used the "blues" numbers, and did some "mean" hoofing. Fred Moore also hoofed a bit to a good hand.
A special word: should be said for the nice juvenile straight played by Fred Durrah who had been rehearsing, with the company only two days before opening here. The chorus is fair to look upon but got little chance to show what else it had. Its members are: Elda Brown, Early Smith, Rachel King and Eva Simmons.
STAR
Vaudeville and Pictures
Three vaudeville turns comprise the stage fare at the Star this week; namely: Williams and Williams man and woman, better known as "The Birds" Oakley and also known as Bartel, accorded the Williams easily to the bill with their original bird imitations. Both worked under Oakley and Oakley offered a humorous line of chatter that went over well and sang several numbers to a good band. The performance of the accordion and won a big hand for his jazz numbers. Pictures complete the bill.

A domestic drama of New York finance; Riverside Drive and its fashion shops.
What is woman's end of the drudgery of it all? Or is she business? "The Silent Partner"
The initial feature of the week at the Dunbar next Monday will be "Silver Wings," a tense drama of domestic life starring Mary Carr, who will be remembered for her fine work as the mother in "Over the Hill." This picture will be shown for two days.
Wednesday, the big feature will be "Gimme," a comedy drama showing the frivolity and desire for finery of the young women of today. Thursday the special feature will be "The Buster," a stirring drama of outdoor life starring Dustin Farnum, Friday, "The Love Brand," starring Roy Stewart, will be the main offering; and Saturday, one of the most interesting domestic dramas seen at the Dunbar for several weeks will be offered in "Thorns and Orange Blossoms."
REGENT
Byrd and Ewing's Let 'Em Rave Co.
The stage attraction at the Rengent this week is Byrd and Ewing's "Let Em Rave Company," an aggregation of experienced entertainers headed by Byrd and Ewing, the former as chief blackface comic and the latter chief straight. Louis Talley is assistant comic.
The sketch offered is entitled the "Seminary Girls," but no particular plot is followed and the whole offering results in a melange of comedy, chatter, song and dance in which a niffy and fast-stepping chorus of good-looking high-browns arrayed in the tights mother nature gave them some brisk work. Byrd wins laughs for his quiet comedy while Talley wins guffaws for his more bolstered method. Talley also worked on cork. Madam Cherri Blossom a dramatic soprano, is featured with the company, and sung "Isles D'Amour" to a big hand. Her voice is powerful, true and contains quite a bit of melody.
Elsie Fisher heads the feminine contingent, the other members of which are: Libby Robinson, Alma Henderson, Gladys Foster, Gladys Jordan, Beulah Gettings and Beatrice Moody.
A big burlesque show has been angled for Alberta Hunter, one of the "How Come" stars. Haven't learned the blues singer's answer to proposals yet; but we do know that Alberta can shine in any company.

Mrs. Sessue Hayakawa
IN THE MIGHTY DRAMA OF
HUMAN HEARTS
"ASHES OF DESIRE"
BY BRONSON FORSYTHE
The American public at large is always anxious to witness the portrayal of dramatic roles by foreigners, especially for the reason of the Fear Escher in this connection; the people of this city will shortly have an opportunity to see the greatest Japanese feminine star, Mrs. Sessue Hayakawa, in a strange story of the Malaysian Peninsula. Mrs. Hayakawa is the wife of the celebrated Sessue Hayakawa, whose work on the screen is known to millions.
Mrs. Sessue Hayakawa is also known under her maiden name of Tresia Acev and has been publicized under that name.
She takes the part of Ka Sih, a beautiful young Malaysian girl, who saves from death a handsome young American chap, who rashly ventured too far for his own safety in this dangerous country.
Condemned to death, the young American escapes, and in later years is recognized by Ka Sih, who prevents her from being caught in the crossroad. The American loved by the young American. The strange rites and tribal customs of the savage Malaysians are clearly portrayed upon the screen, which, with the tenseness of the plot and action of the story, makes this a very unusual motion picture.

That we may with him dwell.
CORNISH—in sad but loving remembrance of my dear husband, Rev. John H. Cornish, who departed this life four years ago, December 6, 1919. Sadness still comes over me. Hidden tears so often flow;

mother, Lottie L. Davis, who departed

We wipe away a tear.

His cheery smiles and kindly ways,

He had a smile for every one,
And died beloved by all.

The wind that beat their hearts.

of the one who once sat there.
Loved in life, in death remembered,
by MOTHER, SISTERS and BROTHER.

From the one who dear sister,
Not will you ever be;
For as long as life and memory lasts,
I will remember thee.
By her loving sister.

On any sea or shore;
Thanks he to God that such has been,
Although they are no more.

718 TEACHERS IN THE RURAL SCHOOLS
Over 200 in Attendance at
State Teachers Association Meeting in Annapolis Friday
SUPT. COOK SPEAKS
Declares It Is Up To Parents
and Teachers To Put High
Schools In Every County
Annapolis, Md., Dec. 3.—There are now eleven high schools in the State, and it is up to the parents and teachers to put a high school in every county. State Superintendent Albert S. Cook, told 200 teachers attending the annual session of teachers Association here last Friday. If the county has 15 pupils of high school grade it can get a 3rd grade high school, Supt. Cook said, 25 pupils of high school grade, a second grade high school, and 40 pupils, a first grade high school. The State and counties spent $100,000 in schools. Of the 718 teachers outside Baltimore city, 286 are first grade, an increase of 15 per cent in the past two years, 274 second grade and 158 third grade.
J. W. Huffington, supervisor of State schools, declared that attendance in colored schools has increased all over the State and that 200 pupils were turned away last year from Bowie Normal School, the first time it is doing only the first time in normal work, he said.
ELKS' BALL IS PUT OFF
State Officials Willing, But Klan and Circus Threaten Suit
The annual ball of the Memorial Lodge of Elks scheduled for December 15, at the Fourth Regiment Army, has been postponed, it was announced. Adjutant General Rockerd gave the date to the Elks after he had called off the circus scheduled for December 8th to 14th by John M. Sheesley. General Rockerd acted as soon as he learned that the local branch of the Klu Klux Klan was to be the beneficiary of the circus, December 8th was then allowed to the Elks. In the face of suits by Sheesley and the Klan to force the State to carry out its contract and open the circus, the Army deemed wise by General Rockerd to recall also permission granted the Elks to use the armory.
Money for tickets sold for the Elks' ball will be refunded at Elks' Hall.

SEVERE COLD GRIPPING EN- TIRE NATION
NINE OUT OF TEN AFFECTED
Doctors Claim Herbs of Life Wound Relieve Situation If Druggists Could Supply the People
This is the most treacherous time of the year, and people all over the country are suffering from terrible colds, which generally begin with sneezing, and a slightly cough, then eventually it develops into a stranding cough, together with a hoarseness, sickeness of the chest and a general aching of the entire body.
Many people suffer attacks which later develop into "FLA," and pneumonia through more intelligence or because they know too much to take the advice of people who know much more than they do.
Some cities report that nine out of every ten persons are affected and the doctors claim that something must be done to accelerate the distribution of Double Strength Herbs of Life among suffering people so that the increasing death toll may be arrested.
Hospital authorities and doctors are absolutely amazed at the way Double Strength Herbs of Life so quickly enter lives which seconded in business. They claim that Double Strength Herbs of Life, if taken time, will take care of the most serious case, and a full treatment of six bottles invariably does the work. The most serious case will respond to a full treatment of Double Strength Herbs of Life.
On account of the great demand for the medicine, the factory is going night and day to cope with the situation, and the 111 branches of of the company through the United States and Canada are doing their utmost effort to supply their clients as they supply their quota of supply from the Home Office of the Company in California.
The Baltimore Branch also distributed 50 carloads of Herbs of Life last week, and yet was unable to supply several druggists, so if your druggist cannot supply you, rest assured that he cannot get it. At this time we wish to call your attention to the fact, that many unappreciable manufacturers are offering to the public a substitute for Double Strength Herbs of Life. Beware of imitation.

LAWYER STRAYS IN $20,000 SUIT
Rev. Emmann D. Warfield, former pastor of a local church, now of Newark, N. J., against whom a verdict for $20,000 was rendered recently for alienating the affection of the wife of John R. Mack, filed a plea this week in the Superior Court to strike out judgment. In his plea, Rev. Warfield sets out that prior to the original suit he retained a local attorney to represent him in the case, but in some time later that court action had been dismissed. He was then living in Bowling Green, Va., and it was not until friends here in Baltimore sent him a newspaper clipping that he was informed of the judgment against him. The court granted Mr. Mack full amount of his suit because neither Rev. Warfield or his lawyer showed up. Through Alty, J. Stewart Davis, he asks the court to give him a new bid.

If you are sick, there are three definite reasons why you should take Chiropractic Spinal Adjustments (treatments)
1. Chiropractic in no way is like the practice of Surgery, Medicine or allied therapeutic methods—all of them utterly incapable in the past of restoring you to health and equally incapable of doing so in the future.
2. Chiropractic is the only scientific method of getting at and removing completely and permanently the primary cause of your trouble without distress or discomfort.
I tried several Doctors without any results. I was then advised to take adjustments (treatments) from Dr. Mallete. I had never heard of Chiropractic, but decided to try it, now after taking 14 treatments all my troubles are gone.

DYER COMNG HERE
Missouri Congressman To Speak on Anti-Lynch Bill At Bethel on Sunday
"Expect nothing from Coolidge" declared Walter F. White, of New York, Assistant Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., who with Mrs. White, was the guest of Bishop John Hurst this week enroute to Washington on business. Mr. White told of his correspondence with the White House concerning the rumor of appointments of assistant district attorneys to be made by President Coolidge in Baltimore, and elsewhere. Neither confirmation nor denial of the rumor could be gotten, said Mr. White, also the Association wrote three letters to the President and received three evasive replies signed "C. Bascom Sharp, secretary to the president." Mr. White's view is that Coolidge is busy now seeking the presidential nomination for 1924 and will sit on the fence until after election.
In Washington, Mr. White secured the consent of Congressman L. C. Dyer of Missouri, to speak at Bethel A. M. E. Church, Sunday afternoon, under the auspices of the local branch of the Association. The Dyer Bill aimed at lynching and carrying a fine of $10,000 upon the city or county which permits a loss to life; then much violence passed the House and one of the bills failed in the Senate. One of the first bills introduced in the House this session was the Dyer Bill, and every effort will be made to put it they
Blount, "would he have that view if his son came home with a black eye, some one gave him in class room. He did not answer me." When they would not allow me to see Superintendent West, I did the next best thing and took the question up to Mayor Jackson, and filed charges against Jiggetts in Juvenile Court."
When the case came up last week, Jiggetts was fined $3 and costs. One girl testified that the teachers did not stop the fight, and when the other pupils attempted to step in, they were ordered to sit down. Both teachers and Principal Henderson were also called on to testify. Mayor Jackson took the matter up with the School Board, and policemen are now on duty when school lets out. Teachers are also on duty in the school yard during the recess.

Mrs. Arlec Lee, 1808 Asquith street, has filed proceedings in the Circuit Court abrogating the contract, tender an accounting and prevent foreclosure on the Asquith street property.
The defendants are John Bevans and H. Hall Edenen, both white, and Davis and Evans represent the plaintiff.
The petitioner alleges that the property was to be bought from Fred Rosen, white, for $1,500, thus Bevans and Edenen, whom she claims, raised the price to $2,522.90.

Can You Beat This
Mrs. Daisy Brown, 306 Camel Alley, thought surely that her hubby must have been losing his mind when he came into the house Sunday afternoon and threw two perfectly good and nicely dressed chickens she had prepared, out into the yard. She could not reason that even the worst kind of bootleg whiskey could make a man that loved chicken as well as Mr. Brown, deliberately throw the fowls away and she sent in an S. O. S. call to the Northwestern Police Station for aid.
Brown was arrested and charged with disturbing the peace. Mrs. Brown further testified that after throwing the chickens out in the yard her husband proceeded to throw household utensils of all descriptions after her because the chicken was not already cooked when he arrived. Brown admitted that his hunger augmented by a few nips of corn had gotten the better of him and he had thrown the chicken out. He also stated that he had gump out and picked it up. He was fined $5 and costs.
Gets Rough
A party being conducted by William Wade, 1623 Joseph's street, started out and ran alright Saturday night until husbands and wives got so badly mixed that fistic adjustments created what the police officers generally call loud and unseemly noises.
As a result the following were arrested and fined $5 and costs each in the Sunday session of the court at Northeastern Police Station: William Wade, 1623 St. Joseph's Court; Robert Stokes, 808 W. Mulberry Street; Samuel Distance, 1118 Rutland Avenue; Maude Gibbs, 18, 1505 Mulliken Street; Elizabeth Nelson, 1623 St. Joseph's Street; Georgia Gregory, 1623 St. Joseph's Court; Maddie Wilson, 1502 Mulliken Street.
William Wade, proprietor of the house was also committed for court for running a disorderly house.
Miss Margaret Wilson, 410 Drudl Hill Avenue, attended a little party Sunday night and partook of a soothing liquid that made her "float along." The police officers found her still floating early Monday morning about 3:00 o'clock and brought her into the station. She had never been in trouble before and she was let down with a $1 and cost fine.
While eleven devotees of the galloping dominoes were busily engaged in rolling the bones, 208 Cornish street, Sunday afternoon, and while the familiar tune, "come seven; come eleven," was floating from the busy

James S. Williams, Supposedly Rich Southerner, In Jail Pending Trial On Thursday
STOLE $10,000 IS CHARGE
Money Is Said To Be The Christmas Fund of a Local Building Association
Supposely wealthy James S. Williams, 1150 Pennsylvania avenue, has been locked up in the city jail for the past three weeks on the charge of stealing $10,602.50 from John R. Gross, 1628 W. Franklin street, connected with the Gross Grant Real Estate Company. The money, said to be the Christmas funds of a local building association, was bounced a fee rate of $1,000 a month by the bonds Williams by Gross several months ago. Williams gave as security a $12,000 bond that by Gross to be a government bond. When the loan was made, this supposed government bond was placed in a safety deposit box at the Baltimore Trust Company. Arrangements were made so that the box could only be opened when both
Gross and Williams were present.
According to Gross, when Williams failed to return the money promptly, he went to the box with Williams to claim the security. The bond turned out to be a bond of some corporation, worth very much less than $12,000 and practically worthless as security for the sum Gross baned.
Gross then claims that Williams gave him a worthless check for the amount due. Williams was arrested and indicted by the grand jury. The case is set for Thursday in

MAKES REPORT
Has Invested $33,000 In Real Estate During Its Two Years of Operation
The annual report of the Homemakers Building Association issued this week shows $33,027.02 invested in properties for sale to stockholders since the association organized two years ago.
The association, headed by John R. Carey, has a directorate of white and colored men who give their time without pay. The purpose is to encourage thrift and give practical assistance in the purchase of homes. The rent which many persons are now paying, according to Mr. Carey, would purchase for them homes within ten years under the management of this association.
The earnings of the association for to years have been $2,384, expenses $512, reserve and dividends $1,872. The association which meets every Monday night at the Sharp Street Community House, is also operating a three tenant-apartment house at 740 Dolphin street.

Williams came to Baltimore from the South several months ago and purchased a Farmers' Aid Building on Pennsylvania avenue. He gave in to the pay drive from the South where he had accumulated a small fortune, and that he expected to invest in Baltimore real estate. He purchased or leased a number of dwellings and painted the brick work yellow and the shutters blue.
Williams will contend that in fraud was perpetrated and that he never declared the security to be a government bond. He also declares that Gross offered voluntarily to make the loan.
LANDLORDS ON RENT RAISING CRUSADE
Reduction of Seven Cents on Tax Rate Does Not Hold
Owners Take Advantage of Demand to Boost Rents a Few Dollars
"I have come to notify you that I am going to raise your rent," an East Baltimore landlord is reported to have told a tenant.
"Glad you are because I have been trying to raise it for the past two weeks and can't" the tenant replied.
It is a fact that, despite seven cents reduction in next year's tax rate, landlords and agents all over the city are raising rents.
They watch to see how much one owner in a block is getting and then notify occupants of other dwellings that they will have to pay more.
With the secrecy of houses the poor tenant has no other alternative. The high rent pirates are both white and colored, Jew and Gentile. But few repairs are made to houses and if the tenant wants anything done he must do it himself. One tenant, who was tired of a downtown really company promising to have the front steps of her home painted, paid a man to do it on Tuesday of last week.
The next morning a representative of the firm was around and notified that her rent was raised $1.30 a week as others in the block were paying more. The tenant protested and showed the man the interior of the house, which is badly in need of repairs. "We'll do some repairing, but you'll have to pay more," was his final word.

GOLDEN BROWN BEAUTY PREPARATIONS are the result of my life-long work to find a treatment that would really clear the skin and give you that fresh, smooth and bright complexion that is our rightful heritage. We have no desire to be white, but we owe it to ourselves to look our best always, and that is enough.
GOLDEN BROWN HAIR DRESSING will absolutely free the hair from dandruff, make the hair smooth, soft and glossy, and, after a Golden Brown Shampoo, will make it possible to dress the hair in the most fashionable and becoming way. It is made of expensive and rare materials known only to me. It is perfumed with the Flowers of Liberia.
GOLDEN BROWN BEAUTY SOAP is made by a secret process from coconut oils and other vegetable ingredients and perfumed with pure oil of Spanish almonds. It will free the scalp from foreign matter. You should shampoo your hair at least twice a week with it. It will clear the skin of all dirt and grime and should be used according to my directions in washing the face each night before using the
GOLDEN BROWN BEAUTY OINTMENT, which is the only Ointment that will clear the skin overnight, remove all pimples, rash, tetter, and make the skin clear and fresh and smooth as a baby's.
GOLDEN BROWN FACE POWDER is an exquisite preparation that is sifted 25 times through silk cloth and contains a cold cream base that makes it adhere to the skin and does not rub off. It furnishes a protection to the delicate skin underneath and brings the bloom of beauty to your cheeks. It is dainty and perfumed with the expensive Flowers of Liberia—the finest Facet Powder in the world.
GOLDEN BROWN ROUGE is made in all fashionable shades from the formula of a Paris chemist (one of our Race), and it is a necessary requisite to milady's toilet. It is put in a dainty gold lacquered box, with crystal mirror and lamb's-down puff. It should be used before applying the Golden Brown Face Powder and will bring a rosy tint to pale, sallow complexions.
Golden Brown Preparations are the most exquisite Toilet Preparations ever offered the Race and are worth what you pay for them. DON'T TAKE ANY SUBSTITUTE. Insist on getting my Golden Brown Beauty Preparations.

By WM. N. JONES.
Surging, bending, and at times riping their opposing lines of human flesh, the great Howard and the mighty Lincoln eleven together with an estimated throng of 30,000 pulsating spectators made up the 1923 football classic that went to a 6:6 tie at National League Park, Philadelphia, last Thursday.
It was probably the largest and most spectacular group of football fans ever gathered at a colored game. Gathered from every section of the country and representing the youth, age, wisdom and social asperations of the Colored American group, these 30,000 human souls swarmed the field, according to the varying fortunes of the opposing teams. It was indeed a great sight. So swept by the spirit of the game was this vast crowd that there were moments when a death-like silence waited the outcome of the game, the deafening roar of yells, thousands of threats sympathetic with the winning side.
Furs Seen
Everywhere
Looking from the field on the vast crowd could be seen a variable pageant of flash and color. Highly clad society matrons dotted here and there beside more gaudy dressed girlstar wraps of all kinds, quality and color; conventionally dressed men and vibrant young students alone and escorting daintily dressed young women. White and colored policemen and firemen on the grounds the air of desperacy. There were also present the usual array of newspaper men representing white and colored papers, photographers, and moving picture photographers. Shortly after 2:30 o'clock, led by Dr. Emnett J. Scott, the Howard team made its appearance and marched to the field. They shortly followed by the Lincoln players. From each side road yells up when the men appeared. At 2:30 the playing began. Then the noise was on. Cheerleaders, two bands vied with each

Doneghy and Byrd Heroes
The line plunges of the mighty Doneghy, the co-lieving dodging of Bryd for Linechin, aided by perfect interference of his mates and the tucking of Coston and Smith thrilled every poster. Emotions long dormant in the lives of staid professional and business men came to life, and they leaped and yelled like play mud boys. Coy and bashful waved and yelled themselves hourly. It was as if the fate of the world depended upon the plunging and riping of those plucky and perfectly trained young athletes. Perhaps in the battle of blooded men, they plunge on the line today. Tomorrow they plunge into life's problems. They doggedly hold the line on the field today and tomorrow they will be called on to face similar lines in the struggle for existence.
The football special remained until 3:30 to allow a full night's pleasure and most of the out-of-town crowd took advantage of the time.

NINETEENTH INSTALLMENT
The Senator had been keeping silent. He now challenged the speaker instantly. "You say you believe in miscegnation," he said. "Tell me, would you have your daughter marry a nigger—a Negro?" "I'd never have any of my children married to anyone, white or black. I try to train them well. I teach them to discriminate between sincerity and insincerity, and leave them to choose their own partners. I should not exert any influence against a Negro who fulfilled my ideals or what a son-in-law ought to be. This is not mercily theoretical. My boy brings his Negro chum from college to house."
"With regard to amalgamation it strikes me that your talk is at least two hundred years late. The fact is we have been having amalgamation all along, let the ostriche deceive themselves as they will. Have you ever been to a Northern church, or to a large gathering of Negroes? It so, you will see scoured Negroes or every shade—from the purest white to black; a sort of human race in miniature. I have counted not less than thirty-four different shades. That's why I had to smile when Benson everyone should marry him color. Amalgamation has been taking place, and although conditions are disgrace to every self-respecting American—g 6 o 6 rather than civil has been the result, I went to a large gathering of colored people recently and out of thousands present I saw less than a hundred that could be as purpulous. The audience appeared to be quite as healthy and prosperous as the more animated. I tunes that in view of the title or no restraint or protest against illegal relations, and the strenuous objection to legal ones, a cynic would be perfectly justified in saying that the principal objection to so-called intermarriage is the legalizing of the union.
"One thing is sure," the senator said: "This racial intermixed does not affect the racial integrity of the white man." "Why?" asked Dixon, much be encouraged by his unexpected ally. "Why?" asked the white bodies are classed as Negroes. No blood flows from the black race into the whites.
from the blues race into the whites. "Not all," reported Dixon. "Intermixing of blood and white has been steady going on for about three hundred years; so much so that times no arrogance of American society in which you will not but person to person you think. I have never estimated at 60 per cent of the move wants. Two American Anglo-Saxon, composed of Saxs, Latins, Jews, Teutons, Iranians, Italians, Indians, Mongolians and a comparatively small proportion of English, has too, a considerable percentage of Negro strain. Mongolians is really more an Anglo-Saxon than this self-sacred Anglo-Saxon this size of the Atlantic—maternal grandmother and his mother are Anglo or old stock. Assertions of racial purity and integrity by any important people in the New World is not only no obstacle but pathetic. Look at the only white person with distinct Negro features. A little more pigment in their stems would make a rather change in their lives. Take New Orleans, or instance. The majority of the people there are no lighter than a northern quadron. A white Northern who made his first trip to the city to see it, said, "If you want to know who is white here you have to get a biome. How they distinguish the jim-crow simpy puzzles me. In Texas, with Americans, they are farther yet. You absolutely cannot tell the way from some of the so-called Negroes. One of the is a colored womb. I would never have believed it if I hadn't seen her mother. Dr. Kintzing, who told a careful study of the study, says it is supposed to tell persons with an attenuated strain of Negro blood. And Fined says that one can distinguish them only in American and particularly those who were thought to be white are proved to be Negro descent. The great Alexander Hamilton, for instance, Henry Timrod, the famous poet of the Civil War in whose honor there is a statue in Charleston, S. C., unknown to his admirers, was a Negro. Caucasian descent among the nation, particularly those South, like potter, must be conceded; it is hard to prove. You'll recall it was possible for the political enemies of President Harding to bring up at the last election the old rumor that he had Negro blood. At that gentleman there said a few minutes ago, amalgamated in a really taking place, let the presses deduce that he had Negro blood. They will."
"You advocate of miscengement," the Senator, angry, "always forget one important fact. You shut your eyes to the intense—the inherent difference between the two." You think—"her intent disliked between the two races?" dominated Passenger No. 1. "Do you believe in the Fatherhood of God? Do you?" "Do you think, then, that the God who commanded us to love one another would create the heart of one race to the other." Another question. If this dislike is inherent, why—must it always be fed to keep alive, like a furnace? This misunderstanding persists because

it is so profitable to certain newspapers, politicians, Ku Klux Klan and all other exploiters of labor white as well as black. Because also white men want to keep Negro women at a stage where it will be easy to get them. Whatever dialike exists between the races today has been caused by training, opsonism, the white paper his own volition has with the black more than with any other variety of human race and the exotic black is attracted rather than repelled by the white. In view of this fact it seems to me that one would be justified in saying that we have color attraction rather than color repulsion. He took out his notebook and having found the desired passage, said "Twan Bloen, leading European sexologist, says in his book, 'The Sexual Life of Our Time,' page 615 that he have had a peculiar weakness for Negresses and mulatto girls and women.
"The European newspapers are full of interesting reports of the powerful attractive force exercised by individuals, male or female, such as Negroes, Arabs, Myssimians, stoors, Indians, Japanese, etc., upon European men and women respectively. Whenever members of such races comes to stay in any European capital we hear of remarkable navies between the white girls and these strangers.
"The colonel girl, exercises a powerful attractive force upon the American man, and even the proud American woman manifests with an especial frequency in China, certain preferences made in India, which greater is the alluring force exercised by the white men the Nero."
"All of which shows how very artificial our segregation laws are," said Passenger No. 2, at the same time asking Ikonon the name of this book and noting it down. He continued: "I will tell you an incident that corroborates what you have just read. I happened to be in London at the time of Edward VIII coronation. To the many Arienses, black and with the most sacred physiques I have seen, the manner in which those men were petted and teased by women, even of the better class—many of whom had seen a black face for the first time—gave me food for much thought and reminded me strongly of that line in Shakespeare's "Two Gentlemen of Verona": "Black men are pearls in beautious ladies' eyes." I saw, too, an American newspaper respond expressed great disgust at the reception given to the Senegalese by the Parisians: "Another of the two opponents re
Dixon, continued: "Some time ago a Chicago newspaper in a console against cabarets, advertised the fact that in certain ones owned by Negroes there was no color line and soon the majority of the patrons in those places were whites of both sexes. In Salt Lake Utah, where intermarriage is illegal, I found that the woman who visited the colored women were all white, colored required as to the absence of colored women, I was told that the white men had appropriated them. The keeper of one of these places told me that several porters had lost their wives by bringing them to live in that city, and that he would not advise any colored man to bring his wife into one of these clubs I saw eight white women, live in the city. I also found in this city the Sawyer I found private colored club where the better class of white women visited. I found similar relations existing between black and white in Seattle, Portland, Ore., Calgary, Winnipeg, Milwaukee and other western towns. In many of the towns of Arizona, Montana and vada the colored women, were few and usually of a very low class, had nearly all order to the white men, being most sceptical to colored men. "Who ordered any colt?" they would ask on the approach of a black man. All through the cities of the South I saw and heard of houses, of prostitution whose occupants were black and patrons white, this being glaringly so in New Orleans. Similar situations exist all over the United States and that part of Canada under American influence. In laufbago, N. Y., for instance, I found a col

In Chicago there are scores of resorts where Negroes meet white women and white men and white women and sexual interaction between black and white women, whether they exist in Boston, San Francisco or New Orleans are of chronic immorality."
No protest from the opposing side
Dixon continued: "But if there be an inherent dislike between these two groups of our citizens, why make anti-miscegenation laws. If there be a great guilt fixed, way make segregation laws? Isn't the purpose of law restraint? An-marriage laws give the color-blind. They bring along circumstantial evidence that whites want to mate with black. A law prohibiting marriage on account of color is unnatural, immoral and stupid, and a monument to the sininess of those who make it. Hostile to one of the most elementary laws of Nature, it will not permit white men to own and own the Negro who attempts to take her away does so at the risk of his life. It is no uncommon thing for white men to group together. This is axiotic. For a human being anything whatsoever and you at once excite in him a desire to possess it. Tobacco won its way to popularity among the white people because of the severe law that prohibited its use. A follower of Mohammed was once asked that prohibition for forbidding the wine to white men be replied, "So that they might find the greater rest in its enjoyment." Stolen waters, says the proverb, are the sweetest. In the past even the leading miscreants have not hostiled to mislead their blood with the Negro in all wars and are still doing it in all laws. The mixing of whites is a law of nature just like gravitation or radio-activity. It is rolling along with the momentum of a million years behind it and mortal man is powerless to stop it."

of fun to be able to tell them of my personal observations all through the East. Then, too, I've made quite a few notes about the kind of work the colored people are doing here. I don't know where they are getting. To tell the truth, I wouldn't go back home again if it were not for the kids. I owe them something, and I guess I'm duty-bound to go back to them" he concluded, as the half-smile gave away to a momentary expression of sadness. When you say you're going back home, what do you mean," I asked, pointedly.
"Florida," I answered in a clear tone. "And it's going to be a pretty full year for the kids and me. We work here all the time, the first of May; and this year's going to be a 'bummer' because I've got so many new things to tell them about. Thought I'd have an assistant this year, but from all I wear from home, I guess I won't need one."

Removing her pipe she answered, "Yes, brother, I tink I have in my time."
"Well," continued the parson, "do you think there is anything more unclean than the breath of a smoker?"
"That's so," said the old woman, "but when I go there I speeches to leave my breath behind me."

"On an autumn evening a group of Minnesota farmers sat around the fire in the general store and complained of the potato jigs' ravages.
"The posts are my wande potato crop in two weeks," said one farmer.
"They are my crop in two days, said a potato farmer, and they cored on the trees to see if it plant grow."
A drummer for a seed house elicited his threat. "Gents," he said, "all that's very remarkable. Let me tell you though, what I saw in our store. I saw a sample of bugs examining the seeds about week before planting time to see who had bought seed."

Our First Quarrel
It happened the first year we were married. My husband was in the habit of going about his chores in the morning and was never in much of a rush for breakfast, so I formed the habit of taking my mornin in preparing breakfast for me. I was not sure to stew some prunes. Finding it took a little longer to cook them than I planned, I took one out to cool it to see if it was done. I was rolling it around in a saucer when friend hubby came in demanding, "It's breakfast, came in. What are you doing playing with that prune?" and he said it rather surrealist, just ready to sance him, when the thought struck me, "A soft answer turneth away wrath," and replied, "I'm trying to rub the wrinkles out of it." We both laughed, and have laughed many times since, about our first quarrel and how it ended. — R. O. E.

A restain husband I know come home from the office about three times a week with a sick headache and goes immediately to bed.
All the time she prepares supper his wife, acting under his orders, has to keep the little boy in the kitchen with her, keep the door closed and eliminate every tiny noise, so far as possible, that they usually make in work or play. For even the smallest of noise disturbs father dreadfully, she gets gel—when the wife has finally tipped the supper to the dining room, and tries to arouse hubby, she has to call him fifteen times and shake him five minutes, while the smother gods on the table.

BAKED PUMPKIN
This is dangerous. Cut the top of a medium-sized pumpkin or squash remove the seeds and fill it with stuffing such as you would use for canned or turkey. Put the top on a large piece of cheese or bread. Cover it with a jacket and then put it in a pot with about an inch of water and take an hour or until the inside is soot.
CRANBERRY SAUCE
Put 1 quart of crberries over the fire with 1/2 pint of corn water and set them cool until they are broken to press. And a pound of sugar and corn oil until it has just coming to make the sauce bitter. Take the sauce from the fire and set it aside to cool. Some prefer the sauce strained.
MAUDE E. COTTON.
THE TURKEY
Clean the turkey and stuff it with stone bread cinnamon lighly seasoned with sage, thyme, salt and pepper. Assist the stuffing with $_{2}$, cup mottled butter and a very little water, and add $_{1}$ beaten egg. In a pan, rub it wet with butter and dredge with salt, pepper and flour; put in a hot oven, and when the flour is browned reduce the heat and add a pint of water. Haste often with butter until prematurely soft. In the pan, dredge with salt and flour after heating. Cook it until the legs will separate from the body, or about 3 hours for an 8-pound turkey. Serve with
cranberry sauce or currant jelly.
To make the greasy, put the giblets in to boil in 1 quart of water and boil until they are tender and the water is reduced to 1/4 cup. Chop fine, pour on the clear fat from the dressing on the boil. Put 3 and 1/2 cups of the fat into a small frying pan, and add enough dry flour to absorb the fat; when brown add the giblet liquid gradually and stir until it thickens. Season with salt and pepper, strain it and add the chopped giblets.

Last summer I tucked my fun coat away in about three thousand moth bails. I decided to take it out last Sunday to wear it to church. Taking it out at 7 a. m. and dressing for church, I put the coat on at 11 a. m., strutting down the street to get on the car.
I saw a couple of passengers looking rather hard in my direction. I thought nothing about it. I usually got to the church door, was in a solemn Head of Corps commenced to turn; still I paid no attention. Church was out, I got on the car to come home. Just when I had gone about two blocks a gentleman exclaimed, "Somebody's overcoat has been in moth bails, and needs airing badly." I never said a word.

Every Seat In Stands Taken In Philadelphia National League Ball Park on Thanksgiving Day
PLAYERS GET STAGE FRIGHT
Little in the Game to Thrill Real Football Fans After the First Period
National League Park, Phila.
Nov. 23. Thousands of people from all parts of the country came here today to witness the annual Thanksgiving Day football game between Howard and Lincoln, and carried away with them not the thrill of a big football game, but the amazement of the crowd. Phillie field pitcher was fall. Daily newspaper reports told me it accommodated from 32,900 to 28,000 persons. Some unassailable seats at one end of the field were empty, but some thousand of them on the field field, and outside, several hundred could gain admission, and elderly home rather than get themselves engulfed in a jam.
Police at the entrances despaired of getting tickets from the crowd and admitted all after the game started whether they had tickets or not. One of the players before the game started and put up the 'sold out' sign. Despite the frigid weather, colored blue-cups detailed to keep the crowd in line perspired as if it were July. Do arrangements to handle the crowd were criticised by many but in defense of the authorities in charge, it must be said they had no idea the attendance would be so large. "Inside the field of effort was made to preserve the seats after two check. On reserve ticket holders were given to sit anywhere. There was no press box, and reporters from a score of newspapers followed the game play by play up and down the field, tabulating the plays as best they might.
The unexpected size of the clawed mudboblet undoubtedly made the first period there was teetering on football. But teams were well trained in the fundamentals, and not a single fumble cut any figure in the score. Two equally matched teams came on the chomp but not muddy field, both of them apparently waiting for a fumble or a break to yield an advantage and afraid to lose.
Dryd was the individual star for Lincoln, not only because of his 50 yard run in the first period which landed the ball on Howard's 17 yard line just after the second kickoff, but because he could always pendon to make a play when just a touch was needed by jumping over Morgan's back. He has the only Lincoln man who could gain consistently and pull off several pretty runs. At the picked up and shrunched hard several times by fierce Howard coaxed, he weathered all glues successfully. Dryd started whirling every time he was tackled and usually succeeded in tucking fire of all encircling him on caster at end and outmaneuvered and then time again it was a shot out who squeaked Howard's
For Howard, Doneghy was the right high ally who he finished two key goals from the field. He carried the ball on every other running day, got his pins off well, hurled it forward passes, and bore the unt of the Howard offense. Howard needed solely an encyclopedia. Carterback Thursday. Only two away passes were held and both of them succeeded. But after that Blackmon could he had the play in the Hopper. Lincoln tried a half dozen passes but Morgan was drawn from centre to hurt the ball and gave the play away. Every single pass was knocked down or intercepted by Howard players.

UNION WINS 7 TO 6 OVER HAMPTON
UNION WINS 7 TO 6 OVER HAMPTON
By P. Bernard Young, Jr.
Richmond, Va., Nov. 29.—Union today defeated the crack Hampton team in the annual "Turkey Day" classic on Hovey Field, in one of the most thrilling and sensational gidrond struggles ever sung by these two teams.
For three quarterbacks Hampton held field goals. In the first few minutes of play Hampton rushed the ball with a powerful attack from the center of the field to Union's 14 yard line, where T. C. Coleman, captain and brilliant right tackle of the "Seasiders" carried the pigskin over a on-court play, down and only score made on Union this season. Both teams were equally matched, except in weight. Union outweighed Hampton considerably.
The game was thrilling from beginning to end, and would probably have been a Hampton victory except for the breaks that went against her. Union down her 20 yard line, Hoffman fumbled and the ball was kicked in the scramble by the players who were trying to recover it. At last it was recovered by Union on Hampton's 43 yard line. Union thus unexpectedly gained 27 yards. This was the turning point of the game. The third quarter ended and Union scored a fourth quarter Union scored. Derritt carried the ball over from the 2 yard line on a line plunge and Shields clinched the victory by kicking a placekick for the extra point. Hampton had failed to make her extra point. Hampton came back with about five minutes to play. 12 passes and line plays she scored on a line to Union's 22 yard line. Here she decided to attempt a drop kick, because of the shortness of time; but before Gunn could signal for the ball the timer's shrill whistle was heard, and the kick that probably would have won the game was never tried.
Substitutions: Union--Shields for Martin; Hampton--Hargrove for Martin; Hampton--Hargrove for Martin; Rinklin for Taylor, Cardozo for Williams; Thatcher for Hargrove. Officials: Referee, Morrison (Tufts): Head Linesman, Lew, Mass, Agi. Appogge, copage, award. Touchdowns: 7. T (Coward), 8. Derritt, 1. Extra print Shields, 1.
WILBERFORCE LOSES TO W.VA.IN MUD
Preston News Service
Columbus, Q., Dec. 5—In a driving steady cold rain at Neill Park on Turkey Day, on a field covered with three inches of slushy and treacherous mud, West Virginia institute defended Wilburby by force of 5. Five thousand fans braved the storm to witness the contest, and they were well paid, for the game was replete with thrilling and spectacular plays from start to finish.
Institute Puts On New Wrinkle
West Virginia Institute won by introducing a new formation at the start of the second half. The entire team shifted to one side of the center and the passer who threw the ball sideways instead of the ball, who was to carry it. The play went off tackle and the Wilberforce line played too high to stop it until after the ball was across. Fullback Eaves made the touchdown.
Captain Hurd, of Wilberforce,
won the toss and from the start
't looked like either team's game.
Wilberforce was the first to score:
a place kick by Hurd in the second
punter from the 30 yard line giv-
ing the Ohio boys their only score.

"Y"BIG FIVEPUTS "HI"QUINT TO ROUT,34-13
Before a small but mossy crowd, the Longhass High School five received a severe drubbing at the hands of the "Y" five in the second game of the Afro Basketball League. The High School was weakened by the loss of many of its last year's stars, but put up a game and losing fight. Hand the Y appeared full of fight, and hand the right in to make a college collar.
Carter starred for the Y in the first session, making four field goals, while Hayes was the bright light of the second frame, making five baskets. Shields, who is also playing with the shoulder A, C this year, was unable to "do his stuff" and accounted for only two Ys' goals. Captain Mack, who worked so hard with the HI's football squad, was always in the thick of the light but the burden was too heavy for his shoulders, and he could only strive to keep the ball against his opponents from running up to telephone number proportions.

SCHOLASTIC FIVE TRAMPLES "Y" QUINT, 45-14
Toying with them as a cat does with a mouse, the Scholastic five trampled the "Y" quintet in the third game of the Afro Basketball League schedule at the "Y" "Gym" Monday night, 15-14. The "Christians" were no match for the speedy "Scholars" in any department. The latter played a five man defensive game that had the "Y" tosses standing on their car. Not only did the Scholastics outlast the "Y" hads in passing and negotiating set-ups, but they outcheated the "Y" in shooting, something the latter is wooftely lacking in. The opening of the game, it looked as if the "Y" tosses had improved their game, and would give the chessy "Scholars" a stiff argument, but this hope in the breast of "Y" adherents was only temporary for the "Scholars" soon began flinging them in from all angles of the field, with the result that the first could win in the latter leading, for score 27-5.
The "C" rattled at the start of the second half, but this too was only temporary and they were soon foundering around almostly dazzled by the speed of their opponent.
"Cutie" Brown was the leading marksman of the evening, up a total of seven from the plain and out of six from the dark mark. Eggie Ward actually outshined Brown, for he didn't come into the game until the second half and caged six baskets from the field.

During the season Hilldale won 126 games, lost 41 and tied 6. This is the record which caused Rules Foster to change his mind about permitting a world's series between the champion of the National League and the Hilldales. Local sports believe that Balden's boys would have won handily.

By L. Massenburge
Philadelphia, Dec. 1. —Over 3,000 fans witnessed the last boxing show under the old law, and the fastest bout ever seen at the National A. C. Friday night, when Andy Kid Bell, of Atlantic City, won over Ettling Frisco, the sensational featherweight of this city in the wintup of eight rounds. Beginning of the fifth Frisco and fatfomed his rival's left. Groutching low, Frisco would fast his head right and left and Bell's fast his head left and left. Like a flush Frisco would raise himself and drive rights and lefts to Bell's body. In the meantime, Bell was hitting. And not the other, either. Was it a hard round. So fast was the light that the fans rose as one and cheered themselves bounce. Never has such a fast bout been more than gold night, but the fans more than gold worth. Bell began to blood freely in the sixth round from a cut on his left ear. His hitting in the early part of Bell to the verdict, which was close.
Kid Holmes defeated Sam Johnson in the semi-wind-up. Dick Williams and Young Harry Wills caught a draw, and Johnson knocked out O'Connor in the second. Friday night's fight was the last uninformed in order. A mixed card is being arranged for this week. Under the new law Director of Public Safety, William Cortell, you will be powerless now, but bouts as he has done in the past.
TIGER FLOWERS' EYE CLOSED IN BOUT
TIGER FLOWERS' EYE CLOSED IN BOUT
Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 4—George Robinson, of Boston tiger Tiger Flowers to a draw before a big crowd at the city auditorium Tuesday. For nine rounds Flowers, whose broker hand has just headed, embarking him to up the tightening game again, hit Robinson with everything he had. Roaders began to sympathize with Robinson whose broker hand was fiercer, and who seemed paralyzed by Tiger's left-handed style of fighting.
In the ninth round, Robinson caught the Atlanta middleweight squarely in the left eye with a right hook and Flower's eyes stars. With his optic out of business, Flowers tried his best to cover up his blind side, and the suffering intense pain, which remained three rounds, Robinson rushed him and hit him often with a hard right that traveled only six inches before it landed. Robinson tried often for Flower's other eye and Tiger used all his skill in avoiding the blows. Flowers took a lot of punishment in the closing rounds, countering cleverly, and clinching when necessary to avoid Robinson's haymaker.

To eat a hearty meal without that distress of the stomach or bowels. After the day's work to have all the possible enjoyment and pleasure at home or with friends.
MEN THINK OF YOUR PLEASURE
COMPARE WITH A FEW DOLLARS
Do you realize that you have only one life to live—do you realize that you are missing most of that life by illhealth? A life worth living is a healthy life. Neglect of one's health has put many a man in his grave. Some men would rather be dead than alive—if you are one of that kind you need not read this. I am talking to real red-blooded men—men who will appreciate the services of a real specimen of health, know the good from the bad—fearless of the benefits of good health—men who live in themselves. If you will come to me I will make you have confidence in others. I will make you cheerful and optimistic and healthful.
NOT SICK, YET HARDLY ABLE TO WORK
Do you feel tired in the morning and easily exhausted? Is your back work is your memory failing in taking your job? Are you losing ambition? Do you feel that you are not the man you once were? Do you have bad habits and do your spine or sudden work spells, especially after eating? Have you palpitation of the heart? Do you hostile, pain at the throat or clauded spells like fright from no apparent cause? Are you very restless or sleepless at night? Are you nervous and irritable, what should that you want to be alone? Are you gloomy, with a sense of some great oppression upon you? If you need any treatment, a visit will tell.

Scientists Make Wonderful Discovery—Says No Man Under 100 Years Should Feel Old
NORFOLK HI SCHOOL BEATS PORTSMOUTH

Norfolk, Va., Dec. 6.—Booker T.
Washington High School of Norfolk,

Portsmouth, Va., 7 to 0 at the
Norfolk League Park, Monday, in their
annual gridiron meet.
The Booker T. Washington squad
had the edge throughout and lost
several chances to score by fumbling.
The score resulted from a clever forward pass and long run made by (Teddy) Loyd, the dangerous right end, late in the game. (Bull) Merritts, Portsmouth lads, had but one chance to score and this was killed when the locals hit the goal and kicked out. This was about the same time the first quarter, Capt. (Bull Dog) West, of Booker T. Washington, (Slim) Smith, the all around center, and (Whirlwind) Erickhouse, were out of the game on account of injuries. The educators by winning Monday, are in line for the State championship. They have lost only one game and that U.S. lads of Hampton, a., the Booker lads of Hampton lads they will have the privilege of competing for the Virginia High School title.

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

He gave away $100 bills while they hasted "as though they were leaves from a tree and he was the owner of unbound forests."

The treatment is put up in tablets, known as Vim-Ets, and is said to produce almost immediate results, first indications being improved appetite, nerves toned up, visceral health, and of no inferiority. The results obtained by scientific tests were so wonderful the Atlas Laboratories have arranged for everyone interested in long life, youthful vigor and health to test it without the slightest risk. All you need do is send your name and address (no money) to Atlas Laboratory, Dept. 12, St. Louis, Mo., and they will send you a full-size box of Vim-Ets by mail under plain wrapper. On a mail postman package, if you are not highly pleased it is one week, just notify the laboratory and your money will be promptly refunded in full.

Mrs. Caroline Deeds, 75, of Pomeroy, Ohio, has invested her life savings in a casket, steel vault, burial dress and grave. She is now content for she will know that her last penny will be spent on herself even after her eyes are closed in death.
This may seem to some a bad investment but in another way the same line of reasoning is followed out by many seemingly rational men and women who spend countless dollars and time in burial organizations, whose sole benefit will be to insure a big funeral.
Every man and woman should be properly insured not as much against death but against the day of old age and to protect those who must follow.

The close of the football season ending with the record-breaking game in Philadelphia between Howard and Lincoln Universities emphasizes what wonderful strides this greatest of all games made in colored institutions during the last ten years. The Howard-Lincoln classic has become a national affair and has stimulated the progress of athletics in every colored institution in the country. It must be remembered that the spirit of struggle, fight and achievement involved in a football game effects an institution and the progress of its students perhaps as nothing else outside of the classrooms. Its growth therefore in the colored institutions is bound to have a wide effect on coming youth. The increased popularity of the Howard-Lincoln game may be understood when it is realized that around 35,000 were in attendance with gate receipts around $40,000. It is estimated that in railroad fares, admissions, and other expenses incidental to the game, approximately $200,000 was spent by football fans on this one game. It was well worth it.
THE BUDGET, TAX RATES, AND US
With an indicated tax rate of $2.94 and the amount of most of the City budgets fixed, tax ridden citizens of Maryland can now settle down in the chair for the painless extraction. Few people take time to understand the complicated system whereby about $700 is taken from the income of the average American family each year to run Federal, State, county and city governments.
Based on the National income it is estimated that if the annual productive income of this country were divided equally between the men and women actually engaged in producing it, each family would have an annual income of about $4,500. But under our economic system where some family incomes must be more than $100,000 it does not take much mathematics to figure why some must be less than $1,000. In our great American family if the more fortunate hoggishly grab more than their share the less fortunate must take less than their's. It is after all very simple.
But when it comes to taxes, a burden which under our alleged democratic form of government, we are supposed to place upon ourselves, we strike a sore spot on the already heavily burdened back of every mother's son of us. Both Governor Ritchie and Mayor Jackson went into office on platforms that promised tax decreases and general economy. But since any slight decrease that might be made would hardly be handed down to the masses in the form of cheaper rent, clothes or bread and butter, this phase of the question is purely academic. What the average colored citizen will be interested in, is how is the vast amount which they help directly and indirectly by the sweat of their brow to produce, going to be distributed? With the Governor considering a $3,000,000 appropriation for the University of Maryland, what will be done for this phase of education for Negro youth; they will wonder how the police department, the Pratt Libraries, and the numerous city, county and State departments, with their millions to spend look their own consciences squarely in the face with not a single colored man or woman on their navyrolls.
The average colored citizens know that when the land baron, the grocer, baker and candle-stick-maker hand over their big checks to the tax collector they have reached down into their pockets first, and they would not mind the burdens so much if they knew they were going to have a fair and honest consideration when the men they help to elect to office make appropriations.

No regiment of troops in the service was more renowned at the close of the war than the Fifty-fourth division, (The Heroes of Ft. Wagner) which was under the command of Colonel Shaw. Tying granted but his troops were not soldier soldiers, the regiment to a man, for eighteen months, refused to receive one company until the company could no longer stand. One thousand volunteers fighting the country's battles without any compulsion, the distribution fatal to their manhood, arraised such a sentiment that Congress was compelled to put them under fire with all other soldiers.
75—Who was Captain Vincent? In 1716 the Gov. of the French colony of Sainte-Adresse, Captain-general of all colored militia in the vicinity of the cape. This Capt. Vincent died in 1758 at the age of 120 years, had been a captain of the Carthage in 1697, was taken prisoner afterwards Liberated by exchange and fought in the German wars under Villers de Brabant. Vincent incidentally mentions the Savannah expedition. He says, "I saw him the year preceding his death, recalling the ancient procession of the Savannah expedition, encoiling for the Savannah expedition. Vincent had a most pleasing countenance; and a trust of his heart with his hand, produced an effect that always commanded respect."

When Judge Mayer of the U. S. District Court of New York, sentenced an outstanding citizen to jail for a national right to trial by a jury, set a bail to rolling that may definitely curb the autocratic power of judges everywhere, outraged public sentiment grew out of a 60 day sentence imposed by Judge Mayer on contemperer Charles L. Craig for contempt of court. The latter's opinion was criticized as a decision of the Judge.
The Department of Justice and even the President have been drawn into this controversy and it seems that the judge has not definitely settled. Whatever happens no judge will again use his power in the nuisance way in which Judge Mayer has used his, even on contempt cases. Judges are not infallible. They make mistakes like anybody else. Their mistakes may be honest ones, but this does not prevent the wrong man from being hanged or the criminal being acquitted. When it is understood that juries must pass on contempt of court charges, judges will think twice before taking the law into their own
Every now and then some savvv living on easy street comes out in a holy lect on the dignity of lahoc.
All over the country, for instance, they talk about how the servant girl, the cook or the junior should look upon their jobs with some sense of humor. They look upon the woman, the farmer or the scientist look upon theirs. But nothing is said about the unnecessary mental and physical tortures holders of such places must suffer to earn a few petty dollars. But nothing should be no difference in the honor attendant upon any honest work. But the trouble with dignity lies not in the manner in which the servant looks upon her work, but the discrepant and suffering from pompous employees.
Not only in the South, but in the North a systematic effort has been made to keep submerged and broken the spirit of color in the kitchen, prescribed kind of work from which all dignity is removed. A girl may study food chemistry and be as proficient in the application of her science and skill in the kitchen as the chemist, but when she takes her kitchen job the mistress usually insists on long hours, poor pay and general disregard for the fact that the cook is also a woman.

Central Association Head Tells Why the Drill Dump Avenue Branch W. Y. C. A. Has Been Closed About 5 Months. To the Editor: It is a matter of great regret to the Board of Directors of the Young Women's Christian Association that the Hill Avenue Branch to remain closed for so long a period. The reason for this is our failure to find an experienced secretary to take charge of the work permanently. We believe that the secret of our success is the person, and the difficulty has been that the demand is much greater than the supply of well trained workers among the colored people. The Management of the branch has felt that there is opportunity for a broader work in
the community than has been done in the past and with this end in view, has voluntarily resigned so that complete reorganization may be effected. At the last meeting of the Committee of Management of the branch, a resolution was passed requesting that the committee appoint a joint committee of an equal number of white and colored women to study the situation with the assistance of a National Colored Society. This plan for reorganization has been delayed owing to the impossibility of securing the services of the special committee desired before the first of the year. The Board of Directors appreciates the interest taken by the AFRO-AMERICAN in this work for the community and cooperation in stimulating the interests of the community in the future plans for the Druid Hill Avenue Branch.

KELLY MILLER SAYS
The ministry is losing its hold on the laymen because it intermeddles in social and secular concerns for which it has no fitness. Yet the Negro pastor is oft-times the only educated man in his congregation.
Function of the Ministry
The School of Religion of Howard University has just held a convoction to warden students for the college elergy, white and colored. Distinguished ecclesiastists from different parts of the country accepted assignments on the program, central theme was how the church in the practical life of the day.
There was general agreement that the ministry should make a frontal attack on social problems, and accuse it of being the task of setting the world to rights.
The discussions were interesting, plausible, and to a degree convincing. And yet one could not but think that the seriousness of the wrong point.
Every profession should have a clearly defined function and spheres of operation. The function of the physician is to prevent disease and injury, and to ensure justice between litigants according to terms of the law; the teacher's duty is to enlighten the ignorant; the statesman concerns the business; the government; the mercantor with the distribution of commodities. In all such cases the boundaries are well defined and the fields of work easily distinguished. The ministry in terms as plain and simple and as easily understand?
It is to vindicate the ways of God to man. The minister stands as a daysman between the priest and the ministering hand upon them both. He performs the function of the grind stone, to give the conscience sharpness of edge and keenness of point, with little concern about what is to be done by the instrument it grinds. The man and the citizen are never wholly lost in the profession. The
But when the lawyer assumes to instruct the physician in matters of health and the physician gives evidence; when the teacher undertakes to run the government, and the statesman undertake to teach school—there is a gloss and overt overlapping of spheres and functions.
Ministers Cannot Hold Two Jobs
When the shoemaker leaves his hist and meddles with the tailor, he is politely advised to mind his own business. As long as he is professional, his authority will be recognized and his expertise accepted; but he weakens his priority and his prestige because he leaves his own domain and meddles upon the confines of another field.
To this rule the minister is no exception. As the malthouse of the kingdom, his intelligence of men and guide them in the upward way he exercises the highest and 'holiest function among men. It is for this reason that he undertakes to teach school, or practice medicine, or run politics, or conduct business, he not only falls from the high echelons of his himself, but at a distinct disadvantage with laymen as capable and as well meaning as he, who have devoted their life and powers to these specific purposes.
We look upon the ministry as a sacred calling as distinguished from the secular pursuits of life. The minister can not hope to hold his supremacy both the sacred and the activities.
The fact that a man is a minister adds absolutely nothing to his pedagogical adaptability: it rather requires the education of the field of education he does not strengthen that profession, but rather weakens it. A clergyman in politics must only place his preacher understakes; practice medicine there is usually something wrong with his ministry or with his medicine, most likely with both. There is scripture that Lord's anointed leaving the gospel to serve tables. Let the ministry adhere to those things that look to Godwards and that laymen perceive and ask tasks that look specifically to manwards.
Catholics Lead Way
It is very deeply to be regretted that the ministry is fast losing its hold upon the reverence and level of respect the clergy have. This can be accounted for in large measure by their ready proneness to intermingle in social and secular concerns for which they have little or no fitness. I believe that it will be readily allowed that the Catholic clergy maintain a higher level of respect and reverence from the laity, both Catholic and Protestant, than the Protestant ministry. It is true, due to the fact that the Catholic clergy have a more clearly and sharply defined spiritual function and observe more faithfully the prescribed limits. Keep thy heart with all diligence; keep the minister in the face. If the minister will see to it that the hearts of his congregation are right, then he may rest assured that their conduct will be righteous. It is far more effective to sharpen the hearts of the clergy with them in cutting down the forest, with dull instruments.
This does not mean that at times social evils may not be prevented, but the priest of God may not feel forced to cry out and spare not certain specific evil mankind, and not the duty of all good citizens of
whatever calling to denounce vicious tendencies which threaten the common social welfare.
Pastor in Politics
The politics of a given community may become so corrupt that it becomes the obvious duty of all callers to resist and drive out the corruptionists from the seat of power. But, this done, let each revert to the proper politics.
When the State falls or refuses to build schools for the instruction of the ignorant, the school will be the willing void. Where the city makes no provision for the sick, the church in a HLDs hospitals, hospitals, hospitals, and the affected left to suffer, the priesthood has always stood ready to render timely assistance to the community as a whole stands willing and able to undertake the task the church should reinforce the work and release the city for its more specific sphere.
Specialized Professions
Numerous special professions are now emerging, each with its mappouted field. The spirit of professional judging is rising apart. The specialization of the profession must be the intermiddling of the elergy. Social service is now becoming professionalized. It calls for men and women of the proper social impulse, and with specific training and experience for this field, the manu-ferable must feel the hunger and clothing the maked and helping those that are heavy haden, but when it comes to organizing this work into efficacious systems, the manu-ferable must be expert in those calling the minister is in his. It is the general experience that the minister, in so far as he insists upon his ministerial preoperative, is rather a hindrance than a help to such movements. It is a teacher of sociology. I find in every great social issue must be treated twice: first, in its broadest and most comprehensive aspect, and second, with special application and perturbation to the situation and circumstances of the Negro.
So let it be with the function of the ministry. What has been said so far applies to the clergy as a whole without reference to race or color. The Negro minister is dealing for the most part with an un-developed group. He naturally has a strong affinity to the batyte as are well informed and more capable than the preacher in affairs outside of his clerical office.
The Negro Ministry
Often times the Negro minister is the only educated man in his congregation. In such instances it is important to lead his people in all the paths that make for progress and right living. But as rapidly as the people in the Negro community must decrease while their must increase, if needs be, the minister
should look after the sick, secure justice for the ignorant illitant, and protect their savings, advise the people how to vote, and, in a word, lead them in all the ways in which they stand in need of leadership. The spiritual function is temporary: The eternal function of his calling is to point men to the sky. The world today stands sorely in need of a ministry that will not dissipate its powers, beyond the powers of its people, to people to buy houses, and build up bank accounts, and live sanitary lives. The enlightened will look after these things. But the hearts and conscience of men that themselves will be inspired to secure better living for themselves and right relations to their fellowmen. The NGO ministry in particular take heed. We can never secure the social salvation of the race till we first secure the salvation of the soul.
