GRAFT RING EXPOSED
Appropriations Committee Would Cut Off This Amount Asked for Medi-
ical School
By Morris Brown
(Washington Correspondent)
Washington, D. C., Jan.
21.—During the consideration of the Interior Department appropriation bill in the House, Representative Bill G. Lowery, of Mississippi, declared that the appropriation to Howard University is made without any warrant of law or any basis in constitutional right or principle.
Appropriation Cut
The bill making appropriations for the Department of the Interior seeks to appropriate a total of $291,757,965, of which $365,000 would go to Howard University. This is $450,000 less than the recommendations of the Bureau of Appropriations for the appropriation for 1924. The Committee on Appropriations eliminated the special items for the Medical School, and that accounts for the difference between the estimate submitted by the Budget Bureau and the bill as reported by the committee. In his speech Mr. Lowery said that the reason given for the large Government aid in the way of appropriations to Howard University from the Federal Treasury is that "it is the one university for Negroes alone, the only member of the really good university education. The reason does not appear to me by any means a good one."
Many Other Colleges
The Mississippi Congressman pointed out that, according to the report of the Bureau of Education, there are in this country 16 land-grant schools for Negroes. "We have," he said, "11 other State schools and 266 independent schools piving a college grade of educational work. Then we have hundreds of private schools and so forth. I think I have found over the years a great number of them, Now of these land-grant schools there is a State College in Alabama, a State college in Arkansas, a State college in Delaware, and one in Florida, one in Kentucky, one in Louisiana, one in Maryland, one in Mississippi, one in Missouri, one in North Carolina, one in South Carolina, one in Oklahoma, one in Texas and one in West Virginia. Those are six normal schools, the general plan of the agricultural and mechanical colleges, run for the education of the Negro. Then there are 11 other State schools, generally normal schools, for the training of teachers. Nearly all of these are in the Southern States. A few of them are in the Northern States." After telling of a conversation he had with a colored man in the Congressional Library, who knew his wife through Harvard as a janitor, he stated that "there is no reason in the proposition that Howard is needed to give opportunities to Negroes.
One Special School
"This one special school is being sustained by the Government; and I do not care, for the purposes of this argument, whether it is for white folks, Indians, or Negroes; whether it is for Jews or Gentiles, Americans or foreigners; the proposition is the question of singling out one university and appropriating one investment money in order to maintain it and especially for running expenses.
"It is a proposition that simply cannot stand the test when it is spoken straight in the face; and if men here will vote straight and honestly on it, with reference to their constitutional obligations, it will not maintain the sustained." Representative Lewy filled the floor at the conclusion of his speech to Representative Blanton, of Texas, who stated that "some months ago some organization in New York offered to this Howard University an enormous sum of money if the citizens of Washington would give a certain sum of money. It was taken up by the board of trade, the been seen — I do not know the face but I am apparently reliably informed — that the citizens of Washington have never done anything toward raising that sum of money upon the assumption that when Congress met, Congress would take care of situation."

CHICAGO ASST. DIST. ATTORNEY SUSPENDED
Charged with Accepting $500 Bribe to Keep All-Night Cabaret
POLICE INVOLVED
Big Democratic Politicians Connected with Latest Expose
Chicago, Ill., Jan. 23. (Special)—Acting upon the personal direction of Mayor Dever, Corporation Counsel Francis X. Busch, white, Monday, suspended one of his own assistants, Maj. A. E. Patterson, aspirant for democratic leadership in the 3d ward, on charges of collecting $550 in graft payments from a "black and tan" cabaret owner.
The corporation counsel also referred Patterson's case to the grievance committee of the Chicago Bar Association with the intimation that it may be called to the attention of States Attorney Crowe later.
Mr. Bush reported to Mayor Dever that the charges against Patterson, first made by Edward Levy, white proprietor of an allied company formerly operated at 43d and South Forsyth corroborated and authentic to a degree that drew from the colored assistant corporation counsel and admission that he had undertaken to provide police "protection" for the black-and-tan resort over "a lot of six weeks or more last fall."
Levy Tells Of Deal
In the latter part of July Levy swears he was visited by an emissary of Patterson and told the corporation counsel's aid assigned to the bond department in Mr. Busch's office "could fix things to let a cabaret run all night." As a result of negotiations conducted thru "Crip" Woods, who claimed to represent Maj. Patterson, Levy charges he visited the city law offices and struck a bargain to pay $400 cash and weekly tribute of $25 for six weeks.
Agreed To Pay $300
"On the 7th of August, after Patterson said he could 'fix it' for me to operate a cabaret without a license all night for $300 and I agreed to pay the money, he gave me a typewritten letter to sign which specified I was to operate a cabaret and restaurant until 3:30 p.m. and people working late nights had no place to go after they were thru working," the ailidavit of Levy reads in part: "I went to see Capt. Gurney, white, (since suspended by order of Mayor Decker) and he didn't have any orders yet, he said. When I went back to Patterson he said it would cost me $55 a week and I paid him $100 down. Subsequently he said after Patterson had been paid $100 personally and $300 more through the emissary, the then captain in charge of Wabash avenue station, Capt. Fred Guerney, informed him that an order had been received from the chief of the music, singing and dancing place until 3:30 a.m. and that he had 'sent the order back to the chief's office.'
Closed By Capt. Wheeler
"From that night on I operated until the last Saturday night in September." Levy's alliavid concludes. "Then they changed captain at Wahash avenue station and the new one, Paul Wheeler, white, came in my place the last Saturday night in September and told me that, although he understood from the way it looked, according to an order in the station house for the district men to let me operate all night without a license or an injunction, he strict ordered Collins to all such places. So I chose my place and went to Maj. Patrison and he offered me back $100 of my money."
Segregationists Hold Stormy Session MEEK' NEGROES FOR MAYOR'S MOTHER FINDS SON DEAD
Studebaker Tells White Im provement Associations Fighting Kind Are Not Wanted.
SECRETARY PITT SPEAKS
Says Best Thing Is To Put Negroes In Bag and Throw Them Overboard.
Only meek and gentle colored folk are wanted on the Mayor's committee, which will discuss segregation of Negroes into separate sections of the city. Negroes should be put in a bag and pitched overboard.
This was the idea of speakers at the Christian Temple, Fulton and Monroe streets Friday night. Representatives of ten white, improvement associations numbering some two dozen present to consolidate and work together in the segregation fight.
The associations represented were: Lafayette Square, Harlem Park, Garret Park, Tolson Springs, Woodbrook, Drulid Park, New York Avenue, Bemalon Street, Gowans, Chichester Avenue and Madison Avenue. The other associations objected to Madison Avenue Association joining the consolidated body because Negroes, as they expressed it, were already on Madison Avenue. The question was asked by the Propertyive Association included. Mr. Stephens, representing the Madison Avenue Association, answered, "from Drulid Hill Park to Butulow Street, and was then asked how was it that Negroes were persecuted? This was blamed on the property owners who were greedy after the dollar. (Jews.) 1600 Home Owners Pledged Not To Sell
Mr. Stephens of the Northwest Baltimore Association said, that his association had sixteen hundred property owners, persecuted up by property owners, who would not sell to Negroes. These pieces of property covered the territory bounded by North avenue, Pennsylvania avenue, Bemalon street and back to Pennsylvania avenue. He said, that his association would not join unless his hand and opened in their plans.
KILLED AT HAVRE DE GRACE
A representative of the Fulton
avenue Protective Association said,
that they needed workers instead of
consolidation. Some of the members
of this association had signed
assigns and personal representatives
not to sell their property to Negroes.
2 Committee Members
Are Too Few.
Some objection was voiced against the appointment by the mayor of three members to represent the consolidated association, which was regarded as too small a number in view of the fact, that nine Negroes had been appointed in the committee. Mr. Stedt shook up, "that the nominating committee thought it wiser to have the presidents of each of the associations present to confer with the Mayor Saturday and impress upon him, that they should have more than three representatives and get him to allot them a greater number of representatives. Would Hire
Best Lawver
Object of the consolidation of the associations was not to take money, and not to have any centralization

GO SLOW IN 1924 DEMOCRATS SAY
Washington, D. C., Jan. 24—A plea for the colored voters of the country to "give careful consideration to the exercise of their suffrage in the coming national campaign" was issued here yesterday by the national Negro democratic conference committee.
The Republican party, the appeal said, "has used the Negro as the great football of our American politics," and today "is brazenly, openly, defiantly trafficking in and traducing the Negro's civic and civil rights as one of the means of retaining the Negro." H. Waters of New York, P. Hampton White, Harry E. B. Davis Bishop George A. McGurle, Rt. Rev Manning, William Bannis and Percy A. Brown, signed the appeal.

Youth Found Frozen to Death at Darlington, Buried When No One Claimed Body
AFRO ARTICLE A CLUE
Mrs. Dorsey Comes to Office to Find Sad News of Son's End
TOOK CLOTHES OFF AND
FROZE TO DEATH
Belair, Jan. 17.—Lloyd Dorsey, of Calvert County, said to be de-membered took home his listing near the home of Allen Hill, white, near here, and crawling up on the porch, lay down naked to sleep. He was found next morning frozen to death.
Few persons who read the above article in last week's APO-AMERICAN realized the tragedy written between the lines.
One reader did, however. She was Mrs. Betty Dorsey, whose home is in Carroll County, Md., near Sykesville, who is visiting her mother at 324 Elm Place.
Brings Clippings To Afro
Mrs. Dorsey brought the clipping to the AFRQ office Monday morning and asked for further details. She declared she lived with her husband, Charles Albert Dorsey, Sr. on a farm near Carroll County, and that her son who was feeble but happy bore his sister for Christmas. Both had searched diligently for him since, but had heard no word from him.
The AFRQ got in touch with the authorities at Belair, but no record for the death of Albert Dorsey was there. Several miles away on the road, she ran on the bus from Overley, William R. Edsle, justice of the peace and coroner, had news of the missing boy.
"We found him masked and frozen to death," Judge Felse told the AFRO-AMERICAN. "And we buried him in Hosanna cemetery after waiting several days for someone to claim the body. As coroner held an open casket to his death by exposure," the Judge also corrected the news article which stated Dorsey's home was Calvert County. Heartbroken over the manner of her son's death, and his burial in a strange place, Mrs. Dorsey sent to her husband, and immediately made arrangements to have home buried. Aunt Jude Felse assured the AFRO that he would raise no objections to having the body dig up, since the mother was sure it was her boy.
You Cannot be "Mrs" in N. C. Bank
Rocky Mount, Jan. 21.—When Mrs. Cora Parker, trained nurse, well known dressmaker and sister-in-law of the junior member of the real estate firm of Nail and Parker, of New ork, entered the savings Bank and Trust Company to open an account, the teller wrote her name in her deposit book as "Mrs. Cora Parker." The other day Mrs. Parker went back to the bank to have her interest posted in the book. Another teller drew a line in red ink thru the "Mrs." leaving just plain "Cora Parker."

Following a recital in Philadelphia next Tuesday night, January 29th, Roland Hayes will give his final recital February 5th in New York and sail the next day to keep his engagements abroad.

Havestay yes would be
would be pegged in East Toulouse Hayes more but he was under the management of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and could appear only in those houses which the orchestra itself would have appeared. For this reason no arrangements could be made for the Douglas Theater or the Regent.
The Lyric Theater was hostile to the proposition and the Academy of Music, although offered for $500, has been unused for sometime and would have cost $200 additional for cleaning and dusting it up in order to have it opened. Municipal Director Huber is said to have opposed the singer coming to the Lyric.
For the same reason Mr. Hayes was not booked at any of the Washington Theaters.
The death of Mrs. Fannie Hayes the singer's mother, sometime ago, cuts the only remaining tie that holds Mr. Hayes to this country. He has hundreds of friends here, but those who have talked to him intimately declare he will make his residence abroad and become a full-heeded Britishiser. -- Before soiling abashed for his deputy, Mr. Hayes strenuously despises the war was engaged to marry a wealthy white English woman and would settle on the continent. Last week Mr. Hayes appeared in a private recital at the home of President Hahn, white, of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, in New York. It was a brilliant gathering for the tenor singer. It was reported he received a check in four figures for his work of an hour.
THOUSANDS VIEW WEDDING AT REGENT
Thousands who filled every corner of the Regent Theatre, Thursday night, saw the photoplay "Deserted at the Altar" and witnessed a real wedding afterwards.
The principals were Miss Nellie Chase and Mr. Frank Dosey, Miss Carrie Booth was maid of honor, and Mr. Mason Colner, best man. The ceremony was performed by Rev. C. B. Jones, pastor of Union Baptist "hurricane 1911." Outside the church, more than a thousand tried to gain admission. Disappointed, they waited until the bridal party appeared. Then the crowd which filled the streets and stood on top of cars parked before the theatre, the happy couple made its way to a taxi cab thrush a shower of rice and old shoes, thence to the new home, 719 N. Mount street, Llaneran and Company, the wedding the wedding bride modeled silk. The Northwestern Lounge offered the ring. Twenty-other merchants gave presents for the couple.
The picture and wedding are to be repeated at the opening of the new Pennsylvania avenue Dunbar Theatre.

The subject for discussion was: 'Resolved. That the Farmer Serves His Country Better Than the Soldier.' The side was supported by 7-B, the negative by 7-A. There were several speakers for each team and their arguments were very well presented. Much of 8th evidence cited for either side was sharply refuted in well drawn up rebultats. The speakers were enthusiastically supported by their Smith, shrub entwined in respective classes. The judges, Mr. White, Smith and Mr. W. H. White were puzzled in rendering a decision. They finally decided the contest a draw.

City Populations
(Preston News Service)
Washington—A recent government estimate of the colored population in certain cities gave New York, 153,243 Philadelphia, 153,812; Chicago, 153,383 St. Louis, 153,812; Cleveland, 154,399; Philadelphia, 42,580; Cincinnati, 33,332, and Columbus, 25,816.
REFUSED BIG OFFER
Declined Chance To Study With Great Teacher of Roland Hayes.
Marian Anderson, who appears here in recital at the Doughlass Theater Friday night, came into her own in Philadelphia recently when she was selected soloist for the Philharmonic Orchestra.
Few people know it, but Miss Anderson is one of the two young women in this country who have turned down an offer to accept free music lessons from Arthur Hubbard in Boston, the celebrated white music teacher who developed Roland Hayes. Mr. Hubbard charges $15 a half hour for his instruction.
Sometime ago when the fine quality of Miss Anderson's voice first attracted attention, friends thru Holand Hayes, interceded with Mr. Hubbard to accept Miss Anderson as a pupil.
Mr. Hubbard offered to accept her as a part of his Boston household and give free musical instructions. Unfortunately at that time, Mrs. Anderson did not like the idea of her daughter leaving Philadelphia and negotiations were called off.
Miss Ethel Waters, now a teacher in Garnett School, this city, was another young woman said to have turned down Hubbard's offer to become his pupil.
Is sweetest singer
Comparing the voices of Roland Hayesay Maria Anderson, a local music officer that Miss Anderson has the most beautiful voice she has ever heard. Like a bird, she sings, and the result is wonderful melody. Roland Hayes on the other hand, has no voice by comparison, but his apparently mediocre talent has become three training a medium of the first rank.

ALAGA
SYRUP
Aluminum Sensing Liquor
ARE NOW BEING
Received in Baltimore
Regular shipments of Real ALAGA Cane Syrup are now being received in Baltimore right from where the Sugar Cane grows. It is going fast to make "Real Joy" with Hot Cakes and Hot Pieces for those who know its quality. From 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 bolled 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 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:

Emerson and Watty may see Weller tip-toeing from Mr. Tait's office, and they will chorus to themselves, "We are for Coolidge and the news is immediately radioed to Mannie and And Watty may come back with, "Have you any oysters in Cambridge today?"
Mannie may radio to Watty during the thick of the fight, "Have you any Bananas in Baltimore today? For Eastern Shore in Maryland, wickle and should Watty come down there seeking votes for Coolidge and hit Cambridge, you may expect St. Clair to give plenty of oysters but allow him to corral nars a vote.
There are more colored chaufsieurs in Pennsylvania than in any other state. Now they are second place, followed by Virginia Georgia, the District of Columbia and Maryland.

Arch Social Has Feast.
The annual housewarming of the Arch Social, 6726 W. Saratoga street, held its annual housewarming and collation Monday evening. It was a real housewarming, for despite the frigid weather outside it felt like summer time on the inside.
The ladies were there, too, it being the one time in the year they are admitted to the club. Much regret was expressed that Raymond Coates, chairman of the reception committee, was absent on account of illness. Clarence Queen, is the president.
Rising Sun Social Formed
The Rising Sun Social has been formed and the following officers chosen: Jack Heard, president; Samuel Camoughee, vice president; Charles Sparrow, treasurer; Harry Parker, recording secretary; Charles Sparrow, treasurer; Benjamin Sparrow, chaplain, and John Royd, sergeant-at-arms.
GOLD DRAGON DANCE
One of the smartest affairs of society reached its heights when the Pleasure Strutters gave their Gold Dragon Dance Thursday evening, January 19th at a beautifully artistically disheveled with white lattice work in the center. Around all four sides hung long strips of paper edged with gold. About four inches apart hung green palms and red and pink flowers draped in the garden representing the Garden of Allah.
The ladies were presented with parasols which were hoisted as they danced. The gents were presented with whistling cigarettes. Many handsome gowns were worn which drew much attention. At 11:30 the guess were served as amputation request. Musk was furnished by the Baltimore Synopators, featuring Theodore Upshall, Jas. Hughton is president; Jas. Quille, secretary and Lewis Tate, treasurer.

retary to the President, today with a view to adjusting
the grievances ot colored Kepublicans with the party

Atter Jeaving the executive offices, Mr. Toliver
Stated that there would be no exclusion of colored Ke-
publicans at tne commg State Convention, which will
ve held in Roanoke, kebruary 5th, as was done at the

Mr. ‘oliver explained. however, that it will be
necessary tor colored Kepubhicans to go into the dis-
trict ana county conventions and have themselves duly
elected as delegates in order to be entitled to seats in
the convention. He said that he had every assurance
that ait Kepublicans, without regard to color or creed,
wno were uuly clected, will be seated at the State Con-
vnuon upon tne presentation of their credentials.
‘there Will be a meeting of all colored delegates
to the State Convention prior to the convention in the
Strand ‘Theatre in Koanoke. An etfort will be made to
agree upon a candidate tor delegate from the State at
large to the next Kepublican Nationah Convention.

$6,000 A YEAR INCOME FROM 12 ACRES
Kansas Black Man Tella
How He Makes Each
Acre Yield $500
BY RILEY ROOGERS
of Lawrence, Kansas
In an interview with Frank M. Chase
of Farm and Fireside
-0-
SLEVE acres may not seem
much of a farm for Kansas,
but that much hand has done
pretty well for me. The cash
receipts from it last year were slightly
above 100,000 and was
not only supported a large family
and provided for my old age, but has
also provided a university education
for my six children.
For twenty years before coming here I worked for railroads, beginning when fifteen as a messenger boy. During all those years I saved no money, nor did it seem that as a railway employee I ever would order to better my position. I needed a union. Negroes, however, were ineligible. Consequently I decided to get into business for myself. I saw a good many vacant lots around Lawrence, and it occurred to me that I could farm them. I went at it. That was twenty-five years ago. What success I have had has been a lot of hard work. I think, however, it is due as much to the attention I have given to selling my produce as to growing it.
When I began here, besides having no money and very little education, I knew absolutely nothing about truck-gardening. Hoping to get some suggestions, I went to see a friend who was a business mess. But from them I got a cold shoulder; they didn't want another man sharing in their trade. They couldn't prevent me from seeing their mistakes, however, and I went ahead determined to profit by them and by experience. Now, while I had had very little schooling, a good deal of my railway experience was in offices, and I had to pay more attention to the business side of gardening than the other fellows were doing. I soon saw, for example, that they were not catering to their market as they should in order to get the best results. They weren't supplying their customers with the right stuff, in the right quantities, at the right time. As a result, the merchants were out of town/ growers, after which the local gardeners would have difficulty in recovering their trade.
My aim is to supply everything the truck market demands, even if I lose money on some of my products. The return for the sweet corn is good, but the cost of sample, as less than the cost of production, trish potatoes also give me little profit, though I raise a few for the very early market. But I supply these products because they help me to maintain my trade. I have found that if I can supply them, we will need them and we will continue to buy of me and nobody else, year after year. Cabbage, tomatoes and cucumbers are my specialties. Early cabbage is the best money maker of all, and this is mainly because I get it on the market very early, usually in spring. Next to cabbage, my most profitable crop is early tomatoes.
Practically all of my stuff is sold to the local stores, to which I make daily deliveries. I have never made a delivery to a restaurant. Probably that could be made into a considerable business of itself, if I had the time to devote to it. As it happens, often keep boxes and hold them in the refrigerator, people drive out here for fresh vegetables.
The hots on which I began comprise about six acres. For several years I rented the land, and then bought it; the rest of my land, which I bought just out of town. The buildings on the original place were poor, but I did not let that fact bother me. I knew that whatever success I had would depend on other things: than the quality of the house and barn. About four and one-half acres by an irrigation system. For lack of a long time getting this. With it I can raise two to four crops a year on the same ground. It helps me to have a continuous flow of products to my market. From this land I obtain considerably more than from eight acres. Last year in products brought $4,500, or $1,000 an acre.
Of all that the little place has done for me and my family, I think I most appreciate the fact that my family has four boys and two girls, and all have been graduated from the University of Kansas. One of the boys is now a practicing physician, while another is a pharmacist. Summer, the youngest, will come to the business here with me, and will carry on what I have started.

Opportunity Never Knocked at His Door
HANDICAPPED by being a Negro, and by lack of education, Riley Rogers found himself at thirty-five with a family and no prospects of advancement. Now he is sixty. He owns just 12 acres, but his income is $6,000 a year—$500 an acre! His four sons and two daughters are graduates of Kansas State University.
Opportunity never knocked at his door. Rogers had to go find his opportunity. He tells here how selling to suit his market as well as producing to suit his soil brought success. The Editor.

"Bobby Lee Now Heads P Radios Music Every
When a school teaches reading, writing and arithmetic only, and a boy's soul is bankering after music it is no fit place for him to go. He is the shape of fourteen. Lee started playing hookey in order to "plunk" a piano in a moving picture parlor, 17th and South streets, Richmond, Va., some years ago. Bob served an apprenticeship until today he has an orchestra of his own known as the "Museum of Music." Preception in this city sometime ago and were healed as one of the best group of musicians ever held here.

When the craze to play the piano first stunck folley Lee, he was a student in the Quaker High School in his junior year. He was a member of the intermoms he would tell his mother he had been to school and had gotten a job after hours. His first wages were from eight to ten dollars per week. It was more money than he ever had before, so instead of giving it to his mother he might have given it to his teacher in school, he gave her five and kept five.
Three Years In The Movies
He kept this job for three years, playing for the movies, but finally he felt that he could come out of school if he wanted because he was a musician. He wanted to play with minstrels.

PLAN DIVISION OF CONFERENCE
African Methodists Would Put Eastern Shore Into Group By Itself
MINISTERS MEET
Presiding Elders and Ministers' Union Gathered At Waters
After a lengthy debate last week, A. M. B. ministers in session at the Presiding Elder's Council adopted a resolution to divide the Baltimore Conference.
The Council held sessions on Wednesday at Waters' A. M. E. Church, Rev. M. H. Davis, entertaining pastor. The Eastern District Presachers' Union met the day before at the same place.
Under the plan adopted the 39 churches all on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, will be placed into no conference, leaving the 39 Western Shore churches including Baltimore and Washington, D. C., in the other conference.
Rev. R. S. Stinsonbury is president of the Presachers' Union; Rev. G. Caines, vice president; Rev. T. Addison secretary; Rev. R. F. Jason son, secondary; Rev. R. H. Fannon son, secondary; Rev. John Hammond, treasurer; Rev. John Hammond, reserved fund treasurer; Rev. S. John S. Collins, presiding leader.
The out-of-town ministers were eve, J. S. Collins, Crisfield, Md.; E. Addison, Easton Md.; E. H. Pursell, Ingleby, Md.; John Hammond, Denton, Md.; J. E. Bond, Coelton, Md.; A. H. Richter, Chestertown, Md.; J. Jayman, W. Machan, Md.; J. H. Dutton, E. M. Manuel, W. J. H. Dutton, Elkton, W. H. Johnson, Vienna, Md.; A. L. Gaines, cton; C. E. Stewart, Washington.
Change Plumed
Change of assignments were planned by the officers of the conference who have completed the layover unit at their charges. Those who will be transferred include: Rev. John T. Collins, presiding elder, Easton District; Rev. John Hammond, Denton, Md.; Rev. J. H. Fitchett, Chestertown, Md.; Rev. J. N. Boston, Graysonville, Md.; Rev. A. L. Colines, Crisfield, E. W. Williams, Crime City, Md.; Rev. M. Sunday, Cowlesville, Md.; Rev. S. R. Drummond, Freedick, Md.; Rev. A. D. Hobden, Pennings, D. C.
Changes are runners-up which would place Rev. M. Collins at Cambridge or in Allen. Rev. A. L. Gaines will very likely be elevated to the bishopric at the next general conference of the church.
HELP—DON'T SNEER
Dr. D. G. Hill says This Method Is Christine Way

CENTRAL SHOULD FINANCE NEW Y.W.C.A.
---
Editor:
We, already, have a F. W. C. A. Association. The Central Branch is located on the corner of Franklin street and Park avenue. This institution is supposed to be for the benefit of all the women of Baltimore, without regard to race, who desire to avail themselves of its benefits. But, although, formally, it is for all women: really, it is for women. Colored women, not being welcomed, without any complaint or hard feeling, many years ago, under the leadership of the late Mrs. Martha Murphy, a band of colored women organized themselves to carry on similar work, for the benefit of colored women in building houses. Druid Hill Avenue and Dolphin street, which they acquired for themselves.
In course of time, representatives from the Franklin street Association sought them, and brought about an "affiliation," and, later, the colored association turned over its property to the Central Association, and became, practically, a branch. Under this last arrangement, it has come to pass that the doors of the colored association have been closed for the past six months or more. Something which never occurred under its original management. The question is, how shall the work of this colored branch be responded? It is contended that the present property is inadequate and a much greater outlay is necessary for modern and acceptable work.
I agree with the contention. But I insist that the burden of this new provision, properly and legitimately, rests up on the Franklin street association. They do not proclaim themselves to white Yemen to Yemen, but simply to the Young Women's CHRISTIAN Association, which is inclusive of Christian women of all races. Since then, it seems most agreeable to the women of both races that adequate and sufficient provision be made for colored women, apart from the Franklin Street Association, in its use of an inclusive title, to provide the necessary housing equipment, which will be the name of the Centre Association.
When this is done, the membership of that particular branch should do its full part towards its maintenance. In the 1300 block, Drudia Hill avenue is an admirable and adequate building which could be required for that purpose. The people behind the Central branch have more than ample means for the work. God has given the means, and the responsibility is upon them. After having brought about the present affiliation, their very honor is a Christian Association, demands as suitable provisions for the black sisters as they have made for the white sisters.

BILLY SUNDAY PEEVED
Charlotte, N. C., Jan. 24—A. N. P.—Peeved because colored pastors refused to close their churches on Sunday morning and attend his services at the barnacle, Billy Sunday issued the following statement:
In his communication he begins the word Negro with a small "n." His letter reads: "Everywhere I have gone in the South I have had meetings for the Negroes and I find no whites, unless it is started by some cranks from the North. Whatever is the local attitude on the Negro question, as far as their attendance at meetings is concerned, I adhere to it. In some places they do not. Most everywhere they have sections or meetings attended by the Negroes in Charleston one afternoon. There were 4,500 in attendance. I addressed the Negro conference in session there in one of the Negro churches. All I have ever said is that there will never be social equality. I don't know of any self-respecting Negro that would want to marry a white woman and vice versa.
"I want to say that there is no place where the Nexgro is better treated than in the South. His best friends are in the South. The South can't get along without him and he doesn't seem to get along anywhere else in the world. I am a teacher in the Nexgro community and I have taken up several offerings for the Jenkins Orphanage."

Of the grief that is borne in silence.
For your husband, whom I loved so well.

At one of those corners in out city's street where the play spirit of children brings the races together a fight took place this week. The principals in the youthful scrimmage were two boys, one white and one colored. At one stage of the fight when the white boy was about to get the temporary advantage it seemed that the desire to help their comrade was about to precipitate the usual "racial" division, a white boy yelled, "no fair, let each one have a fair choice."
The cry "LET EACH ONE HAVE A FAIR CHANCE" sent a smile to each lip, and when the fight was over the two boys got up good-naturedly and the play continued. Here is a lesson that would serve older men and women to good advantage. Suppose in the real struggles of life; in business, in striving for power and place; in interracial contacts; and wherever the interests of men clash, grown-up people would be actuated by the spirit of these boys and LET EACH ONE HAVE A FAIR CHANCE. What a different world we would have.

They say that "It is an ill wind that blows no good," and swept up in the whirlwind of racial fury and segregation we have with us a Mayor's conference consisting of outstanding men of both races to discuss local housing.
Whatever the outcome of this matter the principle of studying it in the light of the common welfare of both white and colored citizens can have no bad effect. If both sides enter this conference in the spirit of arriving at a fair and just solution of the problems involved, there is little doubt but that this experiment will form the precedent for other conferences on matters of common interest to both races.
While the question of legalizing segregation has been definitely settled by the courts and this phase of the matter could hardly with decency be brought up in such a conference, there are many phases of local housing that need a good airing. It would be a good time to discuss in their broader reaches some of the deep-seated evils of our present tenant system.
There are still many white men and women that do not realize that it is not possible to segregate the interests of races living together as we do here in Baltimore. In the final analysis the most exclusive residence area in Roland Park is not safe, when there are slums anywhere else in the city. Germs of disease and vice that originate in the filth alleys of the congested district today may find their habitat on the breakfast table of the most exclusive district tomorrow. And since the segregation idea can never be more than a state of mind, and a myth, why make it a breeder of discord, and agency to prostitute human liberties and create conditions more backward and intolerable than we have.
The Negro is not fighting for houses besides white neighbors. He is fighting for the same equal chance to live in the best places and under the best conditions that his circumstances will permit. This is human.

Several articles coming from the press of late have endeavored to define the wants of the American Negro. While some of them have been more or less colored by the point of view, two remarkably interesting contributions made their appearance in weeklies of national circulation in the last few weeks. Mr. W. O. Sanders ends a rather frank discussion in Collier's Weekly with the conclusion that if left to themselves Negroes would voluntarily segregate themselves off into communities in these United States of ours.
Writing sometime ago in Current History, Mr. Cullen suggests that the three groups, representing those who want to go back to Africa, those who want to amalgamate and those who want to maintain their present racial status in this country, be allowed each to have its wish.
Taking Mound Bayou, Miss., as an example, Mr. Sanders called attention to the solution certain groups work out if left to themselves. The more you know of the section of the South in which Mr. Saunders made his "investigation" and the care with which these investigators are piloted to safe and sane sources of information by their white friends, the more you realize, however honest he may be, how little he has penetrated the real soul of the Negro. The self-consciousness dominant in every intelligent Negro mind which makes him see within his own group every satisfaction of ideal, achievement and beauty he sees in any group, should not be mistaken as a submission to the principle of segregation.
Leaving out the social equality bosh, and the palliating soft mush of a certain type of Negro leader, deep down in the heart and soul of every mother's son of us is the common desire to enjoy every benefit of accumulated civilization. To live anywhere livable; to aspire to anything achievable; to give and take in the tasks of life and share the common fortunes of American citizenship.

The Afro Brings Him New Life
Every Week.
Dear Sir:
I am delighted with the AFRO.
I think I have been taking it for
three years. I am taking four
different papers and I prize that
the highest of them all. Simply
because it stands for the right
regardless of race or color.
It is a paper that never grows
old. When I want to get fresh and
tuned up I get the AFRO, and sit
down and read that. It is almost
new life to you.

To the Editor:
The Afo is a very welcome weekly visitor to my office, and everybody is glad to see it, and the only trouble we have is letting everybody read it who wants to do.
There might to be a subscriber in every community everywhere so as to pass around what you have our calls:
1. at Mr. J. H. Murphy, the editor, at that time at our General Conference in 1960, and 1. have kept contact with your paper most of the time since then, and 1. congratulate you upon its wonderful improvement in every department.
Thinks the AFRO Should? Not Be
So Democratic:
Dear Editor:
Your paper is a source of much information concerning my people. I have been a subscriber for a great many years. Am glad to see the paper kept up to the same high standard.

I think we are doing a good work in this State. Not a single lynching during the last year. A splendid feastal feeling exists everywhere in North Carolina. We are doing our best to complete lynching people and the State has taken a firm position along that line.

The most potent voice in this land today, in the elevation of our people, is that of the colored press. Do you know, sir, that there is not a public, in this whole country, that has not produced a single cosmopolitan pulpitier in two generations. The standard of ministerial fitness is measured by material success. In other realms of thought, and activity, leadership is largely colored by local conditions, individual experience, charisma and heroism portraying crime is a poor incentive to inspire our race with high ideals and noble aspirations. Keep the standard high. Who knows but what you have come into the kingdom for such a time as you are, and what race it will be largely through the righteousness and the fearlessness of the press.

Town Section Resents Epithe
of "Pig Town."
To the Editor:
In your fine paper, under the headline "Pigtown Needs Help, Says Faster," Hiram Smith, a theological student of Howard University, is reputed to have told the Baptist Union at Union Baptist Church on one occasion, that it is a common thing to see a car game, gun fights and a patrol wagon loaded up with armed men and women Sunday morning when women are ordered to "here in this section of the city sometimes known by the name of Carroll Town and by some of the older residents as "Pigtown." I want you to grant me a few times to express the resentment of myself as well as a large number of other peace-loving and self-respecting people whom I have heard express their similar words of condemnation to such insulting words uttered by one who comes his daily bread among those he
Mr. Smith conducts a store in the 1300 block of Carroll street, and all that he does not gather from the people with his high prices in that line during the week he has very recently attempted to gather through the medium of this mission he speaks of having established to rid us of this terribly sinful place. My mother, myself and many others have been living in this section for thirty years and we are not dead yet. And even Mr. Smith's store nor mission show no bullet holes. The raid of the home he spoke of in his article did occur on Boyard street, but not in a colored home as he said it did. It occurred in a white home and should have been truthfully stated.
We resent this insult to the depths of our hearts, and if Mr. Smith intends to establish his future upon any such false foundation, he is already a failure.

When business is poor with the big city stores they do their heavy advertising for force trade. In the smaller stores when trade is slow companies stop advertising and crawl under the counter and go to sleep.
"Wise young men do not hunt for wives on the streets, or at shows." In the modest seclusion of happy homes, helping mother, or in the Sunday-school and church, helping to make the world better, or in the school room leading young lives into a higher place—in places like these they seek to find them. And the young men that gadding girls "catch" are not worth "catching."
One of the most important things a young man or young woman does in this world is to select a career. There are many who just dirt into this or that calling, and others are forced by circumstances to accept what comes out of their mind when the question must be finally settled for life. "What will I do?" Too often the youth have careers thrust upon them by well meaning parents. It is possible to develop a trade and some professions by carrying the boy or girl through a stereotyped course of training, which were made in this way. Roland Hayes mother spiritually gave the man who first discovered him and suggested a musical career a piece of her mind because "musicians of her day were no good." but Roland later selected a career. The best thing any parent can do is to "discover their offspring and to guide them in a career in a talent and plot him to the place where he will select it himself.
Biguely unfortunate are the young people that are attracted merely by the thing they see others do successfully. Be independent, tough, and generous. When you have selected a career make it the guiding star of your life. Laught at initial failures; turn not to the right or left for incidental advantages; succumb not to the call of pleasure and can you have in this world is to SUCCEED AT THE THING YOU WANT TO DO. If you miss doing this you miss life itself.
There have been two important developments in Europe this past week. A labor government takes the helm in the British Empire and the French France is threatened by a brash similar to the German Mark. Since no nation will probably influence the administrative policies of mankind throughout the world during the next fifty years more than France, a proper interpretation of events is necessary or the cause of her financial crisis is internal or whether powerful interests intimate to her growing power and influence are making an onslaught against her in those underground channels known as diplomats is uncertain, but there is little doubt that crippling changes in the system would be a serious blow.
Statesmen look far ahead. White good intentioned philanthropists are thiking peace, they are generally training their guns for the fray. Finance know that the growth threatens the prestige of her ancient enemies. But aside from this there has entered another mighty issue. For the first time in history the future of one of the greatest nations on the globe will be wrapped up in the fate of militaries that have come close to what the next war may mean God only knows.
In politics, as well as other pursuits, public sentiment is demanding higher and higher standards. Back in the old days, the main difference between the national party was at the pork barrel or the job counter.

He spoke the mystic word that dispensed the patronage of his district or he delivered the goods at election in return for privilege to plunder and conduct the vice of his district. But these times are passing and perhaps never. Even in the South leaders of rock bound Republicans are finding it more and more necessary to talk about issues. In schools, social centers and forums young colored youth are discussing taxation, the pros and cons of the league of nation fight, the distribution of patronage as it relates to efficiency, workingman's rights, and the administration of courts. Bosses are giving way to intelligent leaders and the fetish of party worship is being laid forever upon the shelf. Corrupt political machinery has not been entirely relegated to the background in some places, but even corrupt machines are bending more to public sentiment and this is the beginning of the end.
Ten high school boys in Winterville, Ga., working together on a produce farm in their spare time have just sold the last of their crop bringing the total received to about $4,000. These boys help want to school eight months in the year and helped their fathers with the general crop, but completely managed and grew a crop that brought them $400 each. The big and most significant phase of the matter, however, is not the $4,000 earned jobs, but the big things depend upon cooperation, organization and the ability to combine effort. The experience of these boys will be needed in the big future business ventures of the race.

TEN YEARS AGO
FIVE YEARS AGO
KELLY MILLER SAYS
Jazz music and the jubilee songs both are the Negro's contribution to world music. One is as old as the other. You find one in our dance halls and the other in our camp meetings. They are different tunes played on the same harp, and no Negro ever has to learn them, because they are already a part of him.
Jubilee and Jazz
The Year of Jubilee was a Jewish Institution, whose fifteenth anniversary was to be observed with the liberation of Hebrew slaves, the restoration of alienated lands to their rightful owners and a general evening up of things political, economic, and social.
The suggestion was easily applicable and readily borrowed to suit the situation and circumstances of the Negro race in America at the time of emancipation. The nation had been saved, a race had been freed, and the slaves of things we about to be ushered in the trumpet blast of triumph proclaimed throughout the land liberty to all the inhabitants thereof. The nation sang with a new meaning, "The Year of Jubilee Has Come."
The only present day survival of this new order of feeling and of the ancient phrasology in terms of which it was expressed is to be found in connection with Negro music. The necropole motive, and meaning of the spiritual outcome of this epoch is best typified and preserved in the title: "The Fisk Jubilee Singers."
The founders of Fisk University at Nashville, Teen., unconsciously built a phrasal monument to their endeavor which will outlast the era established for the upfit and enlightenment of the down trouble and oppressed.
Northern Missionaries
The early missionaries to the Southland during and immediately after the Civil War were motivated by deep religious conservation and zeal for humanity. They had been told that the Negro did not possess the higher attributes of human nature, and that there was nothing in him that would respond to the higher human appeal. But their faith triumphed over scepticism. Belief in God compels acceptance of the corollary, belief that it is its own equal when endeavoring wanting but tangible proof and concrete demonstration doubles its validity and divests it of all semblance of doubt.
The Northern missionaries were keenly on the lookout for the manifestation of those human qualities that would justify their faith and vindicate their devotion in the eyes of a doubling world. When their car first caught the melodic suggestion their joy knew no bound. It was but the smothered, phantastic lamentation like that of captured Jews who wept under the willow tree by the waters of Babylon. Only this newly heard voice possessed a tempo, timbre and soul melting pathes never heard before. They quickly recognized that there had been discovered new Jewish spiritual and spiritual wealth. It needed only to be heard to be appreciated. It immediately moved the heart, stirred the imagination and melted the eyes to tears. What was to be done with this treasure-trove?
Yankee Ingenuity
There inheres in Yankee genius and ingenuity an almost uncanny cunning. It never fails to see and to seize the main chance. It operates with unfalling certainty in any field to which it may be applied. It adapts its methods of operation to the requirements of the situation whether dealing with things material, social or spiritual.
"Go to," they said, with a practical ingenuity hardly less admirable than their religious zeal, "let us transmute this wonderful manifestation into material dividends to promote the good work to which we have set out hands." It was felt that the exploitation of this melodious gift of the Negro would not only prove useful for race, but it was good also for soothing the sin-sick soul of the nation.
The authorities of Fisk University at Nashville, Tenn., took the lead in this propaganda. The Fisk Jubilee Singers were organized, through which the voice of the Negro carried its own meaning and mission to the nation, and indeed to the world.
The new song gushed from the heart as the trill from the throat of the bird. The nation's withered existence it killed and seems was ill and wept. The response was spontaneous and immediate.
The civilized world was easily persuaded to sympathetic and generous attitude towards a people who cried out of the depth of their distress. "The Fisk Jubilee Hall stands today as a reminder of the substantial response evoked by this appeal. Other institutions also in the field. The indication of many the school and college music laid on the basis of the jubilee music. These bespeak better things for the Negro race.
Jubilee's Our Sorrow Songs
But the early missionaries and school marms exploited only one feature of the Negro's emotional endowment. The spirituality of the Negro's song, not only convinced the nation of their sacrifice and devotion, but also proved profitable to their enterprise.
gro in their own image. They portrayed to the North only that phase of his life that tended to produce a sense of self-importance. They observed g. sagacious
silence or maintained a prudent ignorance concerning another mode of manifestation by which the Negro expressed his wild ejaculations of joy and secular excitation when free from every care and anxiety that besets the serious soul.
Jazz, Our Dance Music
And yet Jaz is as obvious a mode of Negro expression as its jubilee counterpart. The one represents his serious religious mode, the other his fierce care-free attitude, the infuriating rapturous and riotous rivolities. The jubilee is lugubrous and long drawn out with a minor undercrite; the jazz is mirtful, biflars, snatchy, catchy, quick and lively in its energy. The Negro camp meeting, the other in his dance ball. The one is as old as the other.
The "Mobile Buck" and "Jump Jim Crow" united "Swing Low Sweet Charity" and "Steal Away to Jesus." They are but different tunes played on the same harp. No Negro ever has to learn either. They are a part of his physical and psychological co-efficiency. No attenuation of blood can destroy its power and charm. It is also apparent in the abject chants of a Negro show as in the backwoods dance in Alabama. Education cannot be it, but only raise it to a higher power of expression. We listen for it in Harry Burleigh and Roland Hayes the same as in the muttered choir of a Baptist Church.
Jazz Exploited Later
The jazz was later in receiving recognition than the jubilee because of the different method of exploitation. The missionaries had the Negro tell his own story in his own voice. The cork-fired minstrels of the earlier days essayed to portray the jazz phase of Negro life by means of the impersonalization. A Negro performance with a best-tied substitute. No one race can portray the soul of another. Roman tears will not moist British eyes. The white man is a colorless mist whether he attempts jubilee or jazz. We always prefer the original to the substitute. The one is a play; the other a performance. The Negro is at present becoming his own interpreter both as to jubilee and jazz. Negro authors are putting a new meaning in of constant singing; the jubilee songs have still the moving and melting power of the earlier years.
The musical authorities of Europe tell us over and over again that we have not yet begun to explore the possibilities of the musical endowment of the 'transplanted race'. The Negro is becoming educated in musical and technicalique. Some will no longer genius may yet arise, some will weave this rare rich musical material into artistic form, and thus put a new song in the 'mouth of the world and a new tune in its heart.
THE WHATNOT COLUMN
By Robert P. Edwards
For the Associated Negro Press
88. Who was Benjamin Lundy?
One of the first agitators of the anti-slavery movement was Benjamin Lundy, who travelled through a number of states and labored incessantly for the abolition of slavery. In 1830 he says: "I have within ten years sacrificed several thousands of dollars of my own earnings. I have travelled upwards of 5,000 miles on foot and more than 20,000 in other ways, have visited 19 states of this Union and held more than two hundred public meetings, have paid for voyages to the West Indies, by means the enunciation of a considerable number of slaves has been affected, and, I hope, the way paved for the enchancement of many more." Considering the extreme dangers to which anyone agitating anti-slavery was subjected in these times this was a remarkable work.
89. What institution was dragged through Boston's streets with a round his neck?
The implacable crusade of the Abolitionists against slavery was opened by William Lloyd Garrison in 1831 when he laid "The Liberator" at Boston, and their warfare became organized by the formation of The New England, and the Anti-slavery societies in 1832 and 1833. It was during this period that a mob of pro-slavery schools in Boston, broke into mobbed schools in city, seized Mr. Garrison and dragged him through the city streets with a halter about his neck.
90. Who were the leaders of the Anti-slavery Party?
Among the leaders of the Anti-slavery Party were Parker Pillsbury, Stephen Foer, James G. Birney, Joseph Foster, E. P. Coyley, Jessius M. Clay and John Brown, of whom it may be said that it was given to him to impress upon the hearts of the American people that a nation half slave and half free could not exist.

"ROSEANNE"
Play Centers Around Minister Who Led His Flock
At the Greenwich Village Theater in New York, Mary H. Kirkpatrick has recently presented "Rosanne," a play with all Negro characters played by white actors, from the pen of Nan Higby Stephens. The writer and his party were there at the invitation of those interested in the future of the production. "Rosanne" is the most confusing thing in the way of drama we have ever witnessed. It is positively paradoxical. The writer has a most intimate knowledge of the Negro; and the producing authorities have attained just about perfection in the atmosphere and stamp it as a most accurate picturization of Negro life in a small town.
The story, a logical and gripping one, is a very bitter demonstration of what the race has suffered from the parasitic plowhead preacher ever since, the days of reconstruction. It tells of misplaced confidence and bad neighbors in the midst of a person who turns out to be the "wolf in sheep's clothing." It is a well told story of a condition that has been only too familiar to us. Its duplication is hardly possible today because of the very theory organization of the reduced dependencies of the long process of education required for the ministry which would very naturally eliminate a man of such propositions.
A church scene that cooks considerable amusement from white patrons and commands respect for its liability from the colored ones, might well be altered so as to avoid the sarcasm involved in presenting a session. A song service could be substituted and the audience obituated. This onstage presentation the one idea that has been a mainstay to a people who have had little else upon which their punished souls might cling. The moiety ascribing of the congregation is ALL, WONG. Church is the one place that the race does not make a note, except in reverence. To the authors credit, may it be said that every one of the 23 characters are true, and each faithfully represents a law. This is a sad arrangement of a host of education that makes it possible, for a congregant to assume such importance in the life of any community.
Except as to speech, the types are most immediately delineated. This is especially true of the women. Chrysalid beetles in the title role is muscular.

"TIGER ROSE"
Screen Version of Famous Stage Play Starring Lenore Ulric Coming to Regent Next Week
Several years ago, the famous stage producer, David Behson, presented a play in the Canadian stage, *The Canadian Stars*, of his stars, that proved a sensation. That play has now been made into a movie with the little star playing her original stage role. This picture will be shown for three days at the Regent Theatre beginning next Monday.
Briefly outlined the story tells of Rose Behson, who is at the death of her father, with whom she had been living in the Canadian Woods, starts on into the world on a little raft down the river. She starts from death with a craft driftts in the woods, for Michael Collins of the Northwest Mounted, who takes her to the nearby trading post.
Here she is adopted by the Father, McCollins, an old Southman, and soon becomes the idol of the place. Although Devin has fallen in love with her and is certain she returns his love. Rose is noticing a keen obsession for Haze Norrana a young railroad engineer she often comes upon at work. Rose is too bent upon visiting justice upon the man who ruined his sisters years before, to realize that he is in love with Rose. This man is Dr. Glenmichael, word having just been received that he would be stationed at the post as the company doctor. How Eugene Killis, his man, becomes a fugitive from justice, is by chance by Devin and later Frank makes one of the most interesting pictures that has been shown at this house for some moons.

Reviewed for the AFRO
By J. A. Jackson
We had read T. S. Stribling's book "Birthright," and we had had an opportunity to meet the Filibert office and in a mixed company at the New York Public Library. It was therefore with some measure of anxiousness that we awaited the opportunity to witness the screen version that Oscar Michaux has presented.
Well, we have seen it, and the film man has presented the only too true story of conditions that have handicapped the harmony between the race, in a manner not reflected in his lesson out reflecting too discreditably upon the principal characters who are educated Negro types.
Not A Nice Story
Whatever may have been the motive that prompted the writing of the book; and however distasteful it may be to proud members of the race, there is no deying that which I bring out the condition it pictures. It is not a nice story in many of its aspects, but if the truth it reveals can be carried to the country at large, it will have served a most useful purpose.
Micheaux has made a really great picture. It is a modern "little Tom's tale" that may not have some quirky features, but that will but confirm its value. It was apparently not intended for colored audiences, except that it is fair that they should know all about anything that may concern them. Its brutal frankness hurts, and some of the titles put a sting into the evening's entertainment; and just because it has been so well done, everyone of its should see it.
Play To Packed Houses.
The film has comedy, pathos and gripping interest, and should play to packed houses; and if one appreciates made truth, it should make you think—and think a lot. Saleh Fattu Tutt, Tahir Ephraim Treec, Calil Minus G, E. Tatum, Ed. Elkas, Alma Sewall, Lawrence Treec, and T. Crowley play the principal characters, and do them well. Michleux himself directed the timing, and between them they achieved a remarkable degree of naturalness. Miss Pree adds another jewel to her crown of dramatic glory. Tutt plays the role of the screen that one might expect the musical comedy, main to be the prince himself in an actor.
Photography Good.
The photography is good, the scenes well selected, the continuity carefully done, the atmosphere carefully created and maintained, and Micheau has a film of which he may well be proud. Every school teacher, every Negro who has purchased property in the South; all who have ever had a couple with who have been married affectionate with his companions in Southern States, every returned soldier; and every pretty colored woman who has or does live in a Southern State will find some big truth that a personal experience or observation can confirm.
Jim Crow Car
Constable Dawson Gabb, Henry Hooker, the Jim Crow car, "panting"; and a lot of things will be recognized as institutional features of community life in one part of our country. When anyone decries the migration, or asks why it is, tell them to see "Birthright". It will answer the question better than you possibly can. The immigration features may be likened to the nasty phases of war, or the more homely and equally unpleasant washday that is such an important part of having clean linen and clean homes.

1. I want to hang two lanters on a string between two posts. One lantern is green, one yellow, one red and one pink. The pink does not look weaker than the yellow, while the yellow one has a hale in it, which I must hide by hanging it next to one of the posts. What arrangement would be best?
2. Four roads meet here running north, south, cost and west. I have to by a road which comes from the south and I want to go to Me. The road to the right leads to another place, the road strand, subhead leads only to a farm, so the fourth one must be the road to Melton.

B. Belton is west of this place.
C. I must turn to the right to go to Melton.
D. The road to the left leads to Melton.
E. Belton is east of this place.
F. Here is a message written in code which means in ordinary language the sentence written below it:
Code="Dipup Mipope bupl".
Translation="Come to London at
That is to say, each letter in the code sentence stands for the real letter which is written immediately below it in translation, and there is a definite rule of telling what real letter is represented by any letter in a code message. Find this rule and write here the code for "burry."

Horos
One time a little boy went out on a farm with his mother. He had never been on a farm before and everything seemed very strange to him. The sheep and the cows and pigs were all very strange. He thought the cows were the strangest of all because they had such queer things on their heads. He didn't know what they were, so one day he asked the old farmer about them. The farmer told him they were horns.
One evening soon after that the owes began to "moe" and bellow, and set up an awful noise. The little boy was very much excited. He ran to the house as fast as he could and called to his mother: "Oh, mother, mother, come and see the cows. They are all blowing their horns."—Helen McCall, 1804 Division street.

She'd Marry Him Again
Would You?
Would I marry my husband again? Well, I should say. When my husband picked me out, I confess I wasn't in the vermeerum "crazy about him." He was not of the strikingly handsome type, always popular with girls. He was quiet and reserved, and apparently difficult. But by seven years of faithful courtship, he "god" me, such as I am, and I've been 20 years of married life I can say he was the pick of the township. In prosperity he is calm and shows excellent judgment, in adversity, he is reasonable and philosophical. Many a night he has walked the floor with a frightful child.
For several months during the busy season, he was mabid and nurse to me who was unable to walk during that time. His children abuse him and no one but I could comfort him. Yes, if it were to do over again, I marry the same man. Intuition told me of his worth then. First-hand knowledge has confirmed intuition's "bunch." L.

Home-Tested Recipes
Send us your favorite recipe for this column, particularly if this is the season for it. Address Cookery Editor, Afro-American.
Fruit. Conserve
This is fine for winter days, and may be made when fresh fruit is on the market. Use 3 pounds of dried peaches, 2 pounds dried apples, 2 pounds raisins, 1 can pineapple, 2 pounds of jigs, 6 oranges. Soak dried fruit over plywood in the morning cooking oil. The fruit is done. Drain off the juice, put all the fruit then a food grinder and mix it well. Measure sugar cup for cup, add it to the fruitand cook it a half hour or until thick. Seal the conserve in jars or glasses.
Jello and Baked Apples
This is a favorite recipe for baked apples especially good for this time of year. Take 6 medium-sized apples with cores removed and filleted with brown sugar and chopped nuts. When cold, arrange the apples in a pan and cover them with raspberry jello, one package dissolved in a pint of boiling water. After the jello has set, it into squares, measure the volume, and serve with whipped cream. If one wishes, the apples may be placed in cups and the jello poured over them.
MRS. HAROLD L. WAGNER.
Vaulties
This is an old recipe, but a good one and a real treat for the children. Heat well 3 eggs and add 1 tablespoon each of sugar and cold water and 1 teaspoon salt. Sir in enough flour to make a rather stiff dough, kneed it well on the board and divide the dough into four or five portions. Place one of those on the board and add the thin. The thinner the dough the piece will be the vanities. Do not alarm if it sticks to the board, keep on rolling as thin as paper, then fear (not cut) off pieces no larger than half a hand's size—the more irregular in shape the prettier they will look when done. Drop them into a kettle of smoking hot lard and fry a delicate brown, turning once, then take them out and sift powdered sugar over them. They will be covered with bubbles and are pretty in appearance. This quantity makes enough for two or three meals.

Hard on Sister's Beau
Our minister had been calling on my sister for some time. A friend, spending her summer vacation with us, and I, enjoyed playing the "preacher": Naturally, sister didn't enjoy this past as we did. He wanted to go all night with us one week-end, and we decided to have some fun. We hunted up the old school bell and crawled under the bed he was to occupy and took the bell to the springs.
Late that night the pastor tippooled upstairs to bed, treaded quietly lost he disturbed those supposed to be asleep. He is no lightweight, and when he got into bed the old bed rang out in clear, loud tones, and it kept ringing all the time he was going to see whence the noise came.
Meanwhile, downstairs, sister's temper was rising fast, and she was heard to exclaim: "That makes me so mad!" And some more, too. But I dare not repeat that.
Mrs. S. D. SMITH.

A half-worn whiskbroom makes a good scrub brush for enamel ware. When your whiskbroom becomes worn, trim it to a stub, scraal and clean it with soapy water, then rinse it in cold water. If food sticks to the pans, a few strokes with one of these brooms removes it without injury of the utensils.

A—No.
Mrs. X. M. Q—My daughter's eyeslids are swollen and inflamed. What shall I do for this condition?
A. Wash the eyes several times a day with a warm solution of boric acid and at night before retiring; apply 1 per cent yellow oxide to the eyes; this fails to help the condition you should take the patient to an eye specialist.
Miss Opportunity
When Miss Opportunity comes to your
bear.
And plays with the knocker as never before.
Just drop what you're doing and hurry like sin.
To throw wide your portals and welcome her in!
With a smile and how and your curtsey.
Just waltz her right up to the easiest chair!
Remember at host she's a finicky maid
And where she's not wanted she never has stayed!
So look to her comfort and hovering
To all that she says lend a listening ear.
For strange in a female, her words are but few.
And when she has spoken, she really understands.
And never forget, if you don't treat her right.
She'll vanish away like a thief in the night.
And though you may fancy she'll come back some day.
The her far that she'll just stay away!
But if she's made welcome, why then she is fain.
To bear you in mind and to pop in again!
Ay! Though you leave home and go wandering away.
Bellied she always know just where you are.

My little boy, age 5 years and girl
4 years, go to dancing class every
Saturday and have learned the price,
"My Sweeie Went Away." They
were singing and dancing it the other
day and Isabelle wanted to know
where "Sweeie" went, so Harry
said let's ask mother.
They came to me and said:
"Mother where did Sweeie go? and
who did she go with?"
I said: "I don't know honey."
So Harry said: "Come on Isabelle,
let's go to a fortune teller and find

After our little son came, my mother came to visit us, bringing my little niece who is not four years old yet. She stood looking down on the baby sleeping in his bassinet one day and said: "I wish I had a nice baby like Aunt Jude," and then asked me "where I thought it."
I told her "from the doctor."
She said: "I am doing to buy one from him."
I told her she would have to get $25.00 first. Her little face brightened up and she said: "Oh! doodle, I dot more than $25.00."

Heart Problems
Answered by Annie Roney
Smiles—Wait until the young man apologies before you 'renew his friendship.'
Interested—What a foolish woman you are to be suspicious of this young girl in your husband's office. In all probability she is interested in some man of her age. Don't allow such thoughts to enter your mind. Believe in your husband's love and respect for you. If you do not, you may wreck your happiness.
Goes With Another Girl
Dear Annie Roney—I go with a young man, and I love him dearly, but when we get angry with each other he goes with another girl. Should I go with him after he has gone with the other girl?
MOONLIGHT.
As you are not engaged, there is no reason why you should not go with him because he has other friends.
Better Walt a Few Years
Dear Annie Roney—My daughter goes with a young man. They are both 18, but he seems 10 years older. He has a stepmother and a mean father. He has worked hard for four years and gets just enough spending money to make out.
Leave them alone for a while to see how they make out. Do not blame a boy, otherwise, good for his bad parents.

Tested Beauty Hint
One of the most necessary hints to beauty is to avoid constipation. Here are some good rules I have followed: The bowels should move daily after breakfast and supper Roll and massage the abdomen Ead and twist, stoop and jump when you get up. Eat plenty of stewed fruit, especially prunes, also fresh water when it is in market Drink freely of water, cider, milk, orange juice and butter. Eat two glasses of one half hour before meals. Eat muesls of any kind. I prefer the whole wheat products. Use plenty of olive oil in your food. Take sufficient exercise in the open air. Dancing is the best of exercise. If you follow these rules, you will have health and beauty.
Embarrassing Moment
What was youre? The AFROgives a prize each week for the best one received the week. Editor, AFRO.AMERICAN.
One windy day as I was dressing to go for a walk, I decided to get some cold cream for my face. I went to the corner drug store and asked for some cold cream. The clerk said: greasy or gosseless. My all that will make powder stay on me.
He looked at me and laughed and told me I did not need anything to make powder stay on.
I saw others in the store exchange embarrassing smiles in my direction. When I went to pay for someone to sell me a glass and took a peep in it, to my surprise my nose looked as if it had visited a bottle container. My nose being quite "sibling," I had put an extra amount of powder on thinking that I would rub the surplus powder off before. Why was everyone looking at me. Why was embarrassed? Should say so.

My ivory dresser set had become yellow and discolored, so I painted it with spirits of turpentine and exposed it to the sun. It looks brand new.

Until you came into my life, I had not dreamed the heart cool hole so great a love I could begin for you. I would begin our life work together, and may our love be as wonderful in the "evening of life" as it is now in the rosy mist of youth; that as we stand at the helm of our marriage boat, you, my captain, and I, your mate, may our love be so strong that we may battle against the winds of chance, so that we may be carried on the Rocks of Dorset, or set adrift on the shoals of Strange Circumstances.

To Have Loved Is To Have Lived
Love is the essence of God's smile, therefore the heartfelt influence on our souls. To truly love is to rest happily in the light that vivifies all things. This state is different with man and woman. With man it may be all absorbing but is apart from his other existence. With woman it is her all absorbing her every thought and act of life. Love is the most absorbing and compelling of all the emotions, swaying the soul with a resistless influence and yet to have never been able to say "I have loved" is to say you have loved a truth, and

The Senator took up the newspaper and resumed his reading. After a while he asked: "What do you think Negroes ought to vote for?"
"You said you had been in Turkey. What do you think of Mahmmedanism and the Negro?"
"From what I saw of it in Egypt, Turkey and other Islam countries, I think that while its pretensions are less than Christianity, that it is as liberal to its dark-skinned followers as Christianity is unliberal. In fact, every other form of religion than the latter is more liberal. Ranking next to Mohammed is a Negro, Bilal. Islam knows no other bond but religion. White, black, yellow or brown, it matters not, as long as you are of the faith. Christianity—I speak almost entirely of the Anglo-Saxon brand—likes the Negro only when he is content to be a flunky, just so long and no longer. Islam, with all its faults, on the other hand, inspires him to be a man."
The Senator took up the newspaper and resumed his reading. After a while he asked: "What do you think Negroes ought to vote for?"
the Republican party hasn't—that trait is frankness of expression. It declares itself a white man's party. It does not like the Negro and says so."
"I do not think that Negroes ought to give their votes to any one party. Since they are American citizens they ought to vote for all the parties, seeing that none of those parties have the monopoly of right. Moreover, all these parties, however divided, have fundamentally the same ideas. And these parties made up of the very individuals that discriminate against him simply. The Republican party is reminded as our traditional friend and most of our progress has been attributed to its efforts on our behalf. I think that this progress is one partner to our own energy, to our being in the most prosperous part of the world. I have suffered in that it did not make some proper provision to aid the treasured in gaining economic independence. The Republican party generally does more harm than good to masses of the Negroes in the United States. A Negro Negro position, but it is usually in the moral expanse of the others. Campling jobs often openly permitted. Although the party makes a great show of power for the Negro grounded choice, they are not questioned most faithfully. It would and tractor its attention to the white people. The Republican party in the present. The Republican party in the present. Like a man fitted with a woman he considers before him, and one who company is to be tolerated. Young manly women so much people, but who will have nothing to do with him will the committee work with them. We will get rid of the old boy but does not break away, be ing the harm she could do.
The Senator so much pleased, "That's very, very sensible" he took. "It's the same thing I have always said again." The Negro gives his vote to the Republican party, if he was still voting for Liberty. He mentions Liberty's motto: They remind the tone of a thick of sleep. If sheep are coming from a pen and the first ones jump over a bar in doing so, all the others will make the same jump, though the bar be taken away. She is the Negro water. Abraham Lincoln is born to his sisters, and his sisters are no more like him than vinegar is like honey, yet Negro continue to vote. Republican in a manner that makes me think they believe he is still alive and running for president."
"And what about the Democratic party?" he asked a little later with one hand, and a defiance for what he considered must be the political creed of the other, inclined, but finally decided to give his frank opinion.

course, there are broad-minded
men in both these parties, with
the Republican containing the
greater number.) It is also proper
say to distinguish South and the
Democratic party in certain Northern
predominations, like New York,
Boston and Portland. Me,
in many parts of the South this so-called
Democratic party is spectacular.
It would appear that the
successful candidate is happy about
the Negro in the North and the most
whiteness in the west. The Negro, in
emancipation as those polite negroes, might
out to be, is the dominating
stactor of the lives. Despite their
tires of contempt, they live chiefly

"And the result of this policy is an abundant display of verbal protec-
tivities to please the crowd. Take statesmen like Vardaman and
Boddheerery. They are in no position to be a member of a micro-
group that is, to entertain simply by making a noise. And, of course, the louder the noise the greater the applause of the child-mids. These men have saved so long ago, the Negro to the exclusion of everything else, the abuse and effect that part of their brain connected with the Negro must be hypercophied from over-use, while all this rest is atrophied from disuse. I seriously believe that, if the Negro were suddenly to be removed from the South, these forms of place that would have been of amnesia, they would have to begin life all over again as infants.

the Republican party hasn't—that trait is frankness of expression. It declares itself a white man, many do not like the Negro and says so."
"What do you think of the Socialists?" asked the Senator, a Rit-
"The Socialists seem to stand for unqualified fairplay to the Negro, as witness articles in the New York Call and other Socialist papers. The leader of the party, Eugene V. Deblis, is far and away the most unselfish figure in American political life today. Yet it is necessary to remember that there is a new party and needs a leader. I hope that I am ready, by I do fear that their party is like that whitenian who will open a business in a Negro neighborhood, and when he becomes rich, move to a whitenian and bar Negroes. I note that when it comes to a matter of employment they use the same tactics as the rest of the whites. In Milwaukee, the Socialist stronghold, the condition of the Negro is it many respects worse than the most of the whites. I agree with the Proof, both when it comes to the Socialists' charity at the shrine of socialism, they will so long continue to be an unimitable factor in the course of civilization."
"Anyway, you will admit the necessity and wisdom of barring black men from the polls in part of the South where they outnumber the whites. The white man better fitted to govern and give the colored man power. Government that abolished man government. We do not want a return to the horrors of Reconstruction."
"Cotied." White! A difference of so much point. "Does justice?" That the honest and intelligent citizen, and be alone, should have a vote in the government of any country is so evident that it is unnecessary for me to say so. Why the effort to bar black good and bad man units white justice, because political treachery find it very much easier to corral the vote of the whites by an appeal to prove hate.
"With regard to a return to the horrors of Reconstruction, but for the revival of the Ku Klux Klan this would be impossible, as there are no post-war political capers capable of begging. By Southern education and less material about the Civil War; and the Negro is fourteen times more literate now than then. I have no doubt that in every Southern community you will find Negro possessing all the educational qualifications of the average White Southern applicant for office. The Sensor carried the newspaper in his hand, and inquired, "What influence do you think the press has upon race pre-
"The press," said Dixon with conviction, "is the great propagator and maintainer of racial dissension. Some yellow journal has been the initiator of every race and massacre of Negroes. Crimes committed by the lower classes, in short, anything unfairly and frequently displayed, while favorable things are given scent, if any mention. The press takes a malicious delight in lying about Negroes. And it's cowardiness. Long experience tells me that the Jew is more deeply hated than the Negro. I have heard Americans on these, the deepest cancer of hatred for Jews, as Negro as an enemy for their hate, while Americans would lynch Jews as the Russians used to do. Why, then, does not the press backle the Jew? Because he is powerful. With his wealth and his newspapers he can either put the editors out of business or return blow for hate, hence the plea of the victim, of Americans, especially in the North, know only of the newspaper type of Negro, which no more represents the group than the ting represents the whites, or the stage Jew and the Irishman represents those people. To speak frankly, the larger journals, at least, have to have begun, then stage where they find cheap methods for keeping up their circulation, of all the newspapers, of all the countries, of all the newspapers over the country I have seen most of the leading ones. I know only of leading ones that are above this displeasant conduct—the Boston Monitor, the Christian Science Monitor, the New York Evening Post, and anything other, however is concerned and again of the others will encumulate it, as I have seen them, and schopenhauer, the speaker of journalists, and schopenhauer, the speaker of journalists, and create them, says. Therein they are, if anything they immediately attack them will back. This is the attitude of the press toward the Negro exactly. The Fourth Estate of America, in this respect at least, reminds me of a spiteful old gossip, who shutting her eyes to the good in a neighbor, seeks out the neighbors' faults and after magifying them she isn't sure any difference whatever between the conduct of some of these big newspapers and that of some wretched four-page weekly conducted by some ignorant Negro editor who must depend upon the agitation of the color issue for his patronage.

THE LONG RIDE.
(Lincoln News Service)
A little boy, accompanied by his father, leaned drowsily against the window ledge of the smoker and watched the lights in the terminal yards, as he drifted through. It was nearly nine o'clock and the youngster was silently pinching for bed. The ringing of the porter's bell drew his attention from the outside lights.
"Dady, can't we go to head?" he asked plaintively, tugging at his neck.
"Well, my boy, there are many beds to be made up, and the porter has to attend to them all by himself. He'll have our bed ready in a few minutes", said Dad, as he lighted a fresh cigar, while the little boy again turned to the car window. The rumbling of the car wheels and chinking of pins were made the quiet next few minutes, when the kiddle abruptly began a new line of questioning.
"Daddy," said he: "Doesn't the porter ever get tired of making up so many beds?" "I guess he does; but that's the way he makes money to take care of his little boys and girls," explained the father. "Where are his little boys and girls? Are they on this train now?" "Inquired the youngest." "Oh, no; they're at home," said the porter reaches his home, they'll come to meet him with hugs and kisses, just like you and sister do when I research home, after being away on the train," badly continued.
"When does the porter get home to see his little boys and girls?" the kiddie asked next. "One or two a week," replied bad. "All according to how far he has to go on the train." "How long did Baddy a porter? quizzed the boy. "What Joe?" "The little colored boy who works at our house every Saturday. He told me his Baddy had gone away and wouldn't be back for a long time. He said Santa Claims didn't come. His Christmas was away. He reminded the little boy in a amphibious tone. "If he's a porter, he must be on a long ride." "Yes, he was a porter, too." said the porter, sadly. "But he got in some trouble on the car, and

THE BEST YOU HAVE
By Allen Johnson in N. Y. World
When the game has at last been finished,
And the echoes of cheering have died;
When the stands are all silent and empty,
Where the thousands have kidded and gueed;
When shadows are swiftly approaching,
And silence has followed the fray,
While the field lies bare
In the crimson glare,
At the close of a sunlit day—
The score doesn't so much matter,
Though the loser he surely flayed.
There are other affairs to consider,
Than the count that the victor made.
Did you play with a zeal and courage?
Did you strive with a cool head, lad?
Did you show them, too,
That you're game clear through—
Did you give them the best you had?
If you did, then rest on your laurels,
And know that with you 'tis well;
Though you may not play like a master,
Nor fight like a field of hell;
And might be set against you
In the great and final score,
When the game is won,
And the fight is done,
And we rest forever more.
For a loser is often a winner,
If he knows how to lose and laugh,
And a winner is often a loser,
If the fact is often a loser by half,
In the game in the light, in the striving,
In sport, or in life, my lady,
Though your's worn and spent,
You may rest content,
If you gave them the best you had.

Plan Testimonial for Sick Churchman
Atlantic City, N. J., Jan. 21—Plans for a big benefit and testimonial for Major Henry, 129 N. Illinois avenue are being formulated by Rev. A. L. Martin, pastor, and members of Assury M. E. Church, where the stricter man has been an invaluable worker since the establishment of Ashur in this city. Major Henry, who is head of the church, has been for sometime and is still seriously in with no improvement noted. He was counted to the Atlantic City Hospital until a few days ago, when, at his church, he made the announcement the pastor praised highly the services of air Henry in connection with his church, and made it clear that the service was in an embarrassment or needy condition, but would be out of "pure love, appreciation of service and brotherly sympathy for this good man of Giselle." The affair will take the form of a big meeting at which Rev. Clas. A. Tindley, of Philadelphia, has consulted to speak. Several substantial contributions have already been made to the church, and it is expected to be a huge success.

A move is being made by the National Advertisers Association, to curtail what newspapers and advertising agencies term cheap ADVERTISEMENT. It has been shown by this organization, that thousands of dollars are being spent by merchants annually in hand bills, programs, and other such forms of ADVERTISEMENT that rarely reaches those whom the merchants desire to reach. Thousands of hand bills are literally grown over the streets, and thrown into the residential districts, yet housewives never see them. This kind of ADVERTISEMENT has a tendency to lead merchants to believe that ADVERTISEMENT does not pay. THEA ARE RIGHT IN THEIR CONTENTION. THERE ARE CERTAIN FORMS OF ADVERTISEMENTS THAT DO NOT PAY, AND NEVER WILL PAY. NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING PAYS] Why? Because the newspaper is bought by the purchaser with the purpose of reading it, and every page is carefully scanned. When a person goes to a theatre or any other form of attraction, they go there to see the performer's performance. They do not go there to read ADVERTISEMENTS. When a hand bill is thrown into the residence of a home, there are ten chances to one that it will be blown away by the wind or destroyed other-
That's why big merchants use the NEWSPAPER instead of this form of advertising. The performer must use the newspaper it he expects to make his project pay or if he expects to draw a crowd.

Best Baseball Players Are Jumping Contracts in Order to Earn Bigger Salaries in East
CHARLESTON LATEST CASE
BY AFRO SPORTS EDITOR
The migration of ball players has hit Rube Foster's National Baseball League.
For many, many years, it biggest boss of professional leagues in the race, earning profits est. at $50,000 a year from club, the Chicago American, made Reuben Foster hold things in own hand today. It seems to be said that Rube is just as foxy as ever, and has lost none of the pop that made him an a-1 player and manager, it will take some tail explaining to make the fans understand what he let the cream of his baseball players away from him in the post two years.
Eyes Turn Eastward
Five years ago, it was the ambition of every player to get in Rubie Foster's league. Today the forward looking young players turn their eyes Eastward and they want to make good on the Hildale's or the Sox or the Bachmann's. The Hildales got Curr, one of Rubie's star pitchers. Then came Warfield, star of Foster's Detroit club. Mackey and other National Leaguers, jumped to Hildale and led the Eastern League in batting last year. Brown and another also came to Eastern League, the bigger manager of the Black Sox, comes as manager of the Black Sox.
Charleston A Big Loss
The signing of Charleston to manage the Harrisburg Giants makes a gap in Rube Foster's remaining stars that will be hard to fill. Chicago papers quote Rube as saying, "He is the best player he ever interacted to him, and he does not believe he has jumped to Harrisburg. The big centre-fielder is now playing; winter baseball in Cuba, but his contract for next summer is in Colonel Straighten's safe, and there is no doubt that he will play in the NL season and being more of Rube's players, East with him.
Bigger Salaries the Bait.
These on the inside declare that it is the bigger bankroll of the Eastern League magnates that is enticing Tubes's players to desert the wild West for the golden East. Certainly the war between the two leagues for the best players is playful because with Uncle Rebun just now over, not only can he be surprised to see Kubie offer the olive, branch and both wings of organized colored baseball come to a working agreement.
Western League Big Territory
With the Eastern League clubs covering only the Middle Atlantic States from New York to Maryland, the eight clubs form a compact circuit with few long jumps of more than 100 yards, supporting a baseball club over the Eastern circuit will be just one-half that of Rube Foster's clubs where long trips must be made from Milwaukee to Chicago, St. Louis and Birmingham, involving jumps of more than a thousand miles at one time.
Declined World's Series.
The Eastern League, therefore, for sometime to come can operate more cheaply than Foster, and all other things being equal, afford to outbid him for the best players. He is a championship series between his league and the Easterners at the close of last season. It would have made him money, but hostility towards Ed. Foster made him forget his duty to the fans, who wanted to have the national championship game are lining this year for a better relationship between the two leagues, but mountaine the baseball war goes merely on, and the migration of ball players is headed Eastward.

WILLS SHOWS A BANDAGED HAND AT ROCHESTER
Harry Gets Ovation When Introduced in the
Rochester, Jan. 21.Pleading an injured 12 hand, Jack Townsend, colored light heavyweight, failed to respond to the bell for the sixth round in his bout Wednesday night with Jack Taylor, of Indianapolis, in the main event of For George Valley A. C.'s card, which was to have earned Harry Wills in the final role. Wills made his appearance in the ring, being introduced by Jules Baumann. His right hand was bandaged. Previous to the start of the card, Faddy Mullins, manager of Wills, displayed to local newspaper men an X-ray photograph of the injury. It showed the fourth bone fractured. Faddy was rather disconcerted over the sudden termination of much Dempsey, the colored challenger. Dempsey made his statements in New York that he would not sign for any bout between Wills and Fipro unless guaranteed a percentage of the gate receipts.
Wills received a wave of applause when he was introduced, and so did Mullins, who was introduced, right after Harry made his bow and then climbed from the ring. Fuddly has plenty of friends here, so the crowd numbered around 2,000. Announcement that Wills wouldn't fight brought a steady stream of people to the Genesee Valley A. C.'s offices yesterday to return tickets. It was estimated that nearly $1,600 was refunded prior to the opening bout. Taylor punished Townsend badly in the five rounds they fought.
HE FORGOT ABOUT EARL JOHNSON
(Preston News Service)
New York, Jan. 24—Lawrence Perry, writing in the Washington Star, is lamenting the fact that with the passing of Willie Ritola, Finnish long distance runner, the
United States will be sadly lacking in runners of the longer distances at the Olympic games to be held in Paris this year. Perry says in part: "The United States has a goodly crowd of point-winning performers in every running division except that in which Ritola shines—distance running. American athletes have yet to master this event, but they never will do so until trainers and clubs show greater interest in it. "So far as the writer is aware, no individual nor organization has made a consistent effort at the development of distance men. What we need and need badly is national interest in the cross-country idea. an interest which will result in the organization building itself insistently at distance running. Until this is done, we shall have to be content to let prizes in this event remain in plague."
Perry is right as far as he goes, but he goes nowhere. He forgets the fact that the United States lays claim to one of the greatest middles and long distance runners of all times, a man that compared favorably with Kikimura and other luminaries. That man is R. Earl Johnson, Edgar Thompson Steel Company runner, a product of Baltimore, and a—Nexro. Perhaps that is why Mr. Perry's memory so conveniently fails him. But regardless of that Johnson is training, and in his quiet unassuming way, is supremely confident of winning from all competitors in the Olympic tryouts, and then is planning on going to Paris and cleaning up.
KNOXIT PROPHYLACTIC
Unnatural and mucous discharges can be avoided by destroying the germs of infection diseases. $1.10 at all druggists
Haiti has raised $10,000 to send a team of five sharp shooters and two alternates to compete in the 400, 600 and 800 meter rifle matches at the Paris Olympics next summer. When they get there those seven men will shake hands with:
DEHART HUBBARD, University of Michigan's much married sophomore and America's broad jumping champion. Hubbard did over 25 feet several times last year, and could easily jump over 10 flour barrels placed side by side. Ned Gourdin, Harvard law student, who holds the world's record of 25 feet 5 inches, is trying to get in shape to go, but Father Time will likely hold him back. EARL JOHNSON, who got his start in running AFROAMERICAN marathons in Baltimore, will undoubtedly be a member of the U. S. Long distance running team. He holds the U. S. 5-mile championship and cannot be overlooked. ALBERT WASHINGTON, Chicago University 100-yard sprinter, who has been clocked several times in the fast time of 9 4-5 seconds, will complete the American team of regulars. Washington's going depends not so much on what he has done, but on what he can do at the Olympic try-outs in the Harvard stadium next spring. So far he is unknown in the East and in this respect has not the advantage of Earl and Dehart, who have competed here in the last two years.
Charley West, Washington and Jefferson's star football player and last year's pentathlon winner, has a chance to make the team, but West is a better football player than a track man. I almost forgot to state that Jack Dempsey is still dodging that fight with Harry Wills.

Allentown Joe Gans Sends New Yorker Down for Long Dream
Knockout Was So Fast
Fans Believe White Boy
"Faked"
Wilkesbarre, Pa., Jan. 24.—Joe Cans added Jimmy O'Gatty of New York, white, to his list of knockout victories last night. He knocked to the point of the elf put the New York boy to sleep for almost ten minutes. The blow came in the second round of their bout at the Grand Opera House after less than five minutes of fighting during which time Cans played better. But he was far too poor for O'Gatty to hope to win, much less to score a knockout victory as he had threatened.
Much Talk Or "The Dive"
Many fans leaving the theatre last night voiced the belief that O'Gatty "taked" a knockout and said that Gans' blow did not land with enough force to put his opponent to sleep. Such talk is an imminent threat to the Cities at the opposite all voiced the belief that the power of the Allentown boy's punch is not properly appreciated here and all were of the belief that O'Gatty and any other boy would go out from such a crush blow.
Asleep 10 Minutes
The blow which fellled O'Gatty traveled barely six inches. It was of the type that made Joe Gans the old Baltimore fighter, famous. When it landed flush on the button, O'Gatty took a dive for the second and seconds here his helpless form to his corner.
Still unconscious he was carried to the dressing room where cold water and other resoratories were applied. It seemed nearly an hour before the brishman waked up.
Battling Siki is signed up for another fight by his manager, Bob Levy. He will sling punches at Tut Jackson, heavyweight of Washington Court House, O., in a ten-round contest at Columbus, O., on next Thursday night in the West within the next two weeks. Siki was out of condition Monday night and was outclassed in a 15-round bout with Battling Owens at New Orleans.

Wills Sings the "Blues"
Over His Broken
Breadwinner
"If it was raining gold nuggets at 11th street and Lenox avenue I'd be in Alaska," sighed Harry Wills, singing the blues over his broken hand and telling how it happened.
"I had boxed four fast rounds with Jack Townsend and was going to call it a day. Then Mr. Silen your year shows up and I him on for a couple of rounds. Just before we were going to quit I socked Mr. Puryear on the head with my right hand and I heard something snap.
Mr. Puryear has a very hard head. I think it's made of solid granite. Anyway, any guy who has his time, unless you hit him with an axe. My right hand began to swell, and this fracture is the result."

RIGHT CROSS LAYS
SIKI OUT
Memphis, Tenn., Jan. 21. Young Kid Norfolk, of New Orleans, lost to Battling Siki in eight rounds here last week, but he had the honor of putting Mieule Siki on the canvas. A right cross, which caught Siki right on the button, and the Battler went down only to be wounded if made of rubber. Siki wighed 177 pounds and Young Kid Norfolk 199. This 25 pound handicap enabled the New Orleans fighter to stay the limit.
JOHNSON AND DONE
GHY HAVE OPPOSITE
STYLE
Perhaps no two football players who ever captained rival teams stood out so conspicuously different as obson of Lincoln, and Doneghey of Chicago, who never wears head gear, while Doneghey would not walk on a field without his brain protector and plays throughout the game with it carefully kept on. If it should fall from his he will stop and carefully adjust it.
The two run exactly different, Doneghy employing a sort of crouch, while Johnson runs in erect form. Both are great players, however, and stand out as exponents for the two different styles.

TAYLOR USED AN UMBRELLA TO GET READY FOR SIKI
Whin News Service
It is said by those who frequented the Taylor training quarters while the latter was conditioning for Sikl that the winning fighter actually used an umbrella to train with. His manager would stand in the center of the ring and twist an umbrella about and Taylor would dodge and hit as the ram and sun protector was in his way. Whether this is true or not, one has the consolation of knowing that the U. S. battler was well ready for Mons Sikl in every sense of the word. Maybe that's what McTigue did.

"AFRO" BASKETBALL LEAGUE SCHEDULE
SCHOLASTICS,38 ARROWS,31
The Scholastics refused to play Armstrong High School, Washington, Monday, in order to keep their scheduled games in the Afro League and if possible go thru the league season without a defeat. The Saskatchewan team downed the Athletics Arrows 38-31, but they knew they had been in battle and at critical periods had to call "time out" in order to get their breath and refine their shattered forces. The Arrows had no respect for the prestige of the league leaders and from the start jumped to the top, finally and finally Wade had to be sent to the rescue. Baker and Pop Davis sifted their the Scholastics defense time, and time again to cage a basket. But Albor and Down at the other end were waiting that come to them sooner or later.
The half ended with the score favoring the Scholars, 18-14. The game sussessed back an inch during the next half. Arrows needed 6 points per game on his bench and grown at Theodore Roberts about not keeping correct account of the Arrows "outlays." Wake was able to stop some of Middles' effective passing, and the team had to hand him still further.

ARMSTRONG,25 DOUGLASS,23
With Score Tied, 23 All Turner Shoots Basket That Gives His Team the Victory in Final
Minute
Douglass High School and Armstrong High of Washington, basketball teams, met on the floor of the local "Y" gym" last Friday night before a gallery that packed every inch of human parking space, and after a gruelling sette. Douglass "Hit by a single basket in the final minute of play, the score ending 25-22.
It was a hard game for the Gisouites to lose. This is not meant to take away any credit from the visitors, they won and earned their victory, but the Avenues had the edge in the battle.
The game was a nip and tuck combat threat and the score was so close that each time a basket was made by a Douglass player a mighty shot by the "Y" student body which comprises the most part of the crowd, would let out a mighty shot that would shake the building.
The locals played principally an open game while the visitors played chiefly a five man defense game. It was in shooting, however, that the teams ran neck and neck. Armstrong scoring six goals and bonglass seven of them, which included "HI leading" 16-14. With a two point lead to work on, the Gibson charges after the usual leisure by their mentor during the intermission, pounded upon the visitors at the sound of Referee Lane's whistle, announcing the start of the second period with the apparent intention of putting the game on ice. The visitors, nothing darned, met then and worked away until only a few minutes of play left, dampened things for the "HI" rooters by tying the score 20 all. And then a foul penalty brought Short to the foul line who tossed accurately as the gallery shrieked. The visitors moments later they took the lead by shooting a basket from the field. The score now stood 22-21.
And then that fast forward, Short, electrified the house by shooting one from plain which again tiel the score. With only three or four minutes of play left, the teams battled to an ample number of shots only on minute left. Turner shot a basket that gave Armstrong the victory.

HAMPTON DEFEATS HOWARD 29-20
By P. Bernard Young, Jr.
Hampton, Va., Jan. 19.—Displaying a superior and more clever passing and guarding fame, and the ability to sink shots when shots meant everything. Hampton's own statistic court record in one of the hardest-fought and most thrilling basketball legions ever staged on the Hampton Institute Gymnastium court before a large and enthusiastic crowd that was constantly brought to its feet by the spectacle and clever floor work of both teams. Armed, though defeated, but up to a great fight, rallying several times to forge into the lead. The final result was never certain. At the end of the first half both teams were deadlocked—10 to 10.
Speedy Second Half
Hampton got the tie-off in the second half and with several lightning-like passes got the ball in position for Jones to catch. Thus breaking the tie and putting Hampton in the lead. In this half Gunn and Hargreaves took from any angle, playing an all-round great game, and breaking up several threatening rallies started ag. Howard. "The 'Hisons' fought with everything they could use and were still unable to break through the superb defense of the 'Seaiders.'"

21 Games In Lincoln's Basketball Schedule
---
Oxford, Pa., Jan. 24.—The heaviest basketball schedule ever outlined in the history of the institution faces Coach Young's basketball this season. Manager Pope was instructed to line up the best and most structured situations to the letter. Coach Young is reported as saying he wants nothing easy. When we win we want it said that we defeated somebody. If we lose we want to feel that a real team defeated us. I am not in favor of clinch games and want to win pennants so real connection when ever they give of their hard earnings.

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

One of his goals was wasted. He was holding from the basket and when covered tossed the ball over his shoulders into the basket. Allor followed with four and his passing was sensation. Jackson and Payne played guard positions as they should be played, and did not moveywork in holding Campbell, the St. Cyprian six food seven center to three field goals. Ward got in his usual good work and scored three goals in seven minutes. Hurmon, got in the game and played his six shot. St. Cyprian's six shots could not well do without. Campbell played well for St. Cyprian as did Shad former Baltimore "Y" physioed director. Shad's their work was good, although he failed to score a single point during forty minutes play.
