Dr. Moton Uses Influence In Washington To Oust Dr. Crossland From Tuskegee Hospital Jim Crow Car Bill Introduced In Legislature MOTHER STRANGLES HER BABE Tuskegee Principal Said Crossland Was in Danger of Arrest Dr. Moton's Telegram to His Private Secretary in Washington That Caused Crossland's Dismissal "J. A. L. Holsey, Washington, D. C. "Developments today make it imperative that this man be ordered from here at once otherwise there will be trouble anything yet bad. Has done some things which might cause his immediate arrest. Even more serious complications may arise if he is not reinforced. Urge this for me. (Signed) "R. E. MOTON" Tuskegee, Ala., Jan. 31 Dr. J. R. E. Crossland, appointed some months ago to a mysterious position at the United States Veterans' hospital here, was ordered to discontinue his services at the institution last Saturday and is supposed to have left for Washington this week. Dr. Crossland's dismissal came in the climax of a series of charges and counter charges between him and his friends on the one side, and certain influences emanating from Tuskegee Institute. Other if is charged is crossland cured possibility to stop the cry of Negroes for a governing hand in the hospital, conditions have continually grown worse. Worked Against Dr. Moton Open empathy between Dr. Moton, of Traskee Institute and Dr. Crossland is declared to have assured itself, "crossland is charged with brought tough questions to hospital Moton, to prevent him from addressing the hospital employees, and to have made an effort to nullify the effect of Moton's efforts to work out the" hospital situation. In order to make own position at the hospital he alleged to have adopted a traitorous attitude which would have placed him permanently and surely, in a secondary position in the hospital, with a white man at the head. The is believed to have offered the man such assistance the institution in exchange for the latter securing him. Crossland is a job. Opposed Bv Medical Association Crossland went to the hospital without the official sanction of the National Medical Association which Director Hines had promised would be consulted before any appointment. Crossland was surprised and disappointed when it learned that the former Missouri physician had been sent to Alabama. It is felt that the association may have had an influential part of play in securing the doctor's disgruntlement. The last adventure of Crossland is only one of several in which he has been involved in the last few years. At one time he was as assistant in the Veterans' bureau in charge of colored work. Charges of inefficiency and unfaithfulness to duty are alleged to have led to his embarrassment in that position. Bobby Dell Letter Recalled It is remembered that he was sued for divorce last year by his wife, who charged that the doctor was a gray-haired, Lothario, fascinated by a Chicago butterfly, often referred to as the "Baby Doll." On the strength of charges brought up in connection, Mrs. Crossland procured a divorce and substantial alimony. Now, the declaration is maintained, that the "Baby Doll" case is not yet ended. Furniture, which the doctor is alleged to have sent to his Chengio "love nest" was reported to have been expressed to this post office shortly before Crossland's death. He was notified of plaid and robe and was sent from an adjoining St. Lawrence Avenue in. So far the identity of the Doll" has been kept a secret. Access to her as a "Merry Wallow" would seem to indicate that she is one of the prominent marrons of the expense account, due to long distancing telephone calls to Crossland's he was in the Veterans' bureau, were one of the principal sources of his embarrassment. Sent Letters To Senators Anonymously addressed letters to Senator Hiram Johnson, presidential candidate, are believed to have been sent to the Senator. They recommended to the Senator, as a campaign ally, A. Dr. J. R. E. Crossland, who has been many things, has many friends in all states of the Union, is intelligent, and is well-educated. Colored man for the Senator to favor. Crosslands queer appointment to Tuskegee and this mysterious letter writing, coupled with his antagonistic attitude at Tuskegee, has given rise to the feeling that he is a temperate and tendencies and one to be watched. Negroes are becoming afraid of him. APPOINTED INVESTIGATOR Los Angeles. Calf. Jan. 31.— James M.

J. C. BILLWOULD SEAT US IN THE REAR South Baltimore Delegate to Legislature Introduces Bill Providing Separate Seats for Negroes TALKS TO REPORTER Michael Noon, Irishman, Says Workers From Fertilizer Plant Caused Original Complaint Complaint of South and East Baltimore residents that they had to sit on street cars beside roughly dressed persons working in the fertilizer factories caused Michael T. Noon to introduce a measure in the state legislature this week providing for Jim crow street cars in Baltimore. Noon is apparently of Irish extraction, received the reporter in his humble home at 1223 E. Fort avenue Thursday. He said the colored workers from fertilizer plants always take seats to themselves and would not move in order to let white passengers sit to themselves. Asked if white workers in fertilizer factories did not cause the same inconvenience, Delaware Noon answered they were objectionable, but know better how to act. On the question of holding the whole race responsible for the actions of a few, Noon said they all would have to be Jim crowed alike, the innocent suffering with the others. In some quarters the jim crow bill is regarded as a political move. The United Railways does not want such a bill, and will fight it in the legislature. They will perhaps put out some money to light it up there, but they don't think that those who are sponsoring the measure, can if they wish, make a good little sum by withdrawing their support at the proper time.

RACES EQUAL SAYS INDIA'S GOVERNOR London, England, Jan. 29.— Sir Sydney Oliver, newly appointed secretary of state for India, is a believer of racial equality for white, black and red men. Speaking on the strength of the experience which he gained during his colonial service in the West Indies, and especially in jamaica, which dependency he administered as Captain General, for close upon fourteen years he writes in his new book, "White Capital and Colored Labor." "There is no artificial or conventional disqualification whatever to bar any Jamaican, of Negro or race, from occupying any position, from occupying any department of the social life of the island, including public service." Black Men Judges Many colored men are magistrates of petty sessions. More than one holds the office of custodian that is to say of chief magistrate of a group of parishes; more than one holds or has held stipendiary magistracies under the government. These positions are called by the term according to their professional position, they associate with the white residents on precisely the same terms as persons of pure European extraction." The recognition of this equality works in the direction of making the Negro people help toward good social order, whereas Americans, according to Sir Sydney, by insisting continually on the inferiority of the black man, have spurred him into violent resistance and called forth some of his worse faults. As an illustration of this, he calls attention in his book to the number of crimes perpetrated in America that are laid at the door of the Ne Continued on page 7; col. 2 SENATE BARBER 58 YEARS, DIES BROKE Washington, Jan. 31—"John the Barber," who for a half century disspensed shaves, haircuts and shampoos to Senators of the United States, is dead here.

POINT OF ORDER MADE Brynes Cites Strong Sermon of Rev. Francis Grimke, Trustee, as Cause of Action Washington, Jan. 29. —Appropriations for Howard University cut down by $500,000 by the House Committee on Appropriations last week were lopped off entirely today upon a point of order made by Rep. Brynes, (Dem., S. C.). Only the appropriation of $165,000 for Freedman's Hospital was left in. Uless these Items are restored when the bill is finally passed by the House and Senate and goes to a joint committee for conference. Howard University, which has received government aid for the past half century will be without funds with which to continue next year. The original appropriation paid for by Howard totaled nearly $900,000, of which $500,000 was for the medical school. President Coolidge in his message to Congress urged this aid he given. The House Committee, however, struck out the $500,000 item last week. Brynes Gets the Floor When the bill came up today the $365,000 appropriation for Howard drew the fire of Representative Byrnes, who read into the record a printed sermon delivered sometime ago by Rev. Francis J. Anderson, who had printed the Lath Street Presbyterian Church. In the sermon Dr. Grimke is quoted as saying: "White Y. M. and Y. W. C. As are a reproach to Christianity, because they exclude colored people. In the sermon I little faith in the Christianity of Woodrow Wilson and W. J. Bryan." "It is a shame, a burning shame. We are under the denomination of a Christianity that discriminates against human beings made in the image of God and for whom Christ dled." Byrnes said Congress should not support a school where students were thus inspired by a trustee to hate white people, or where there was a theological concern (Ola, Mahl, and Carter (Dena Gkla) declared that there was an evidence that the Howard Trustee Board supported such views. Items Stricken Out Rep. Brynes demanded the legislative authority for the appropriation from the committee in charge of the bill and when Rep. Tilson (Rep. Conn.) answered that the appropriations were made from year to year on the ground that the University was the point of the nation. Brynes by point struck out the following items: $30,000 for Manual Arts Department. $9,000 equipment for medical laboratory. $15,000 equipment for science hall. $157,000 for completion of assembly hall and "gym" for which $40,000 was appropriated in part last year. $20,000 for library extension. $20,000 improvement of grounds and buildings 15,000 fuel and light for university and hospital. Not First Time This is not the first time that Howard appropriation has been lopped off on the floor of the House Rep. Sisson. Southern Democrat, made the similar motion several years ago, but when the bill went to conference, the appropriation was inserted again. Should the university lost its appropriation, it would be unable to carry on its work among its 2,400 students next year. 7 Cents in Maryland LATEST NEWS WOMAN'S BODY IN MORGUE Lying unidentified at the city morgue is the blood-stained body of a light brown-skinned woman.

A few hours later officers gave up the remains of the alleged murdered child and placed it into the hand of the coroner. Tosh Joshuway an Miss Coleman are being held in connection with the affair. Was Jilted Lover Perhaps the depth of newly-born infant of Miss Coleman would have never come to light and its tiny body found forever its resting place in the yard at the Oxford St. home if a serious rift had not occurred it the unconventional love lives to Joshway and the woman he lives with us his common law wife, is generally the woman who has been outspoken of information, say police, but this time it was the man. The trouble started, it is said when Miss Coleman sought to rid herself of the comparison of her lover. On Saturday following a quarrel, Joshway went to the Oxford street home and destroyed all of the furniture in the house except a piano, which she spared only because it was still unpaid for. According to Miss Coleman she also attempted to abuse her and she appealed to the police for help. On her complaint her lover was arrested and docked on a charge of disturbing the peace. It was when taken before officers at the station the anger began to grow the grusome story of the birth and death of the infant. Tells Gruesome Story According to Joshuway, on the morning of January 18th, Miss Coleman, after giving birth to the infant and while it was still alive, strangled it to unconsciousness and buried it in the back yard. Joshuway admitted that she had been told that when he saw the infant alive and kicking. When brought to the station and faced by the story of Joshuway, Miss Coleman denied strangling the infant herself and shifted the blame for its death on the man who accused her. It was Joshuway, she said, who buried the infant in the yard. Police officers went to the place where Joshuway stated the infant could be found and dug up the child. It was carried to the city morgue where the city post mortum physician made an autopsy. Both Joshuway and Miss Coleman are being held for a hearing on February 4th. In the post mortum statement that the infant was killed, one or both of them will face the charge of murder. Afro Article Gets Him a Horse William Spates, 1134 W.

Clearance SALE $2 and $2.50 Pajamas $1.50 $2.50 and $3.00 Shirts $1.95 $1.25 and $1.50 Shirts 95c Those of us who are still "groping in the dark," so to say, and suffering disappointments and heartaches over the condition of our hair know that their joy must be great when they feel like there is nothing left to keep them from holding their head up high and walking along knowing that everybody who sees them admires the way their hair stays so smooth and silky. All SWEATERS and HATS Greatly Reduced Not long ago someone asked one of the celebrated LaFayette Players how she managed to fix her hair, so she naturally takes the part of the different characters she plays. Her eyes sparkled and she said as quick as a flash — "Many of the parts I play call for long, beautiful hair to carry the impression of the real character. I have been aided greatly in doing this through the use of Pluko Hair Dressing, which has given me a wealth of long, silky hair. I therefore, take great pleasure in telling you, so you may know how to make your hair just as attractive as mine is." LINCOLN Pennsylvania Avenue WINNING MONDAY, FEBRUARY 4 THING NEW BUT THE NAME The LaFayette Players are known all over the country, and are thought of along with the great artists of the stage in their work of producing all the best dramatic plays at our leading theatres, such as the Grand in Chicago, the Dunbar in Phiadelphia, the Howard in Washington, D.C., the Douglass in Baltimore, and many others. When one of their stars says that she is able to make Pluko do for her hair what everything else failed to do, you know she is anxious for all her fellow girls and women to know about it, because she knows how we have all tried time and again most of the reported discoveries which were supposed to make coarse and dull hair glossy, Pluko HAIR DRESSING PRICE 25¢ MADE BY THE PLUKO COMPANY MEMPHIS, TENN. "Wherefore Seeing We Also Are Compassed About With So Great a Cloud of Witnesses" NEW TESTAMENT. A Great Cloud of Witnesses Arises to Acclaim Pluko smooth and soft, so it will stay the way we want it to look. This is not just one case purposely picked out to show what Pluko hair dressing is doing. Thousands of our girls and women, and boys and men, too, are having the same things to say about it. Miss Luella Watkins, one of the society leaders of the race in Houston, Texas; James E. Washington, prominent politician and owner and editor of the Western World Reporter, of Memphis, Tenn.; Rev. Charles E. Burns, Minister and Trustee of the Church of the Living God, of Indianapolis, Ind.; Miss Ellen Burton, of Atlanta, Ga., who has played to crowded theatres all over the South; Miss Virginia Hartley, of Norfolk, Va., a prominent member of the Beulah Benbow Company playing the more important theatres in the South and noted for their beautiful girls; Miss Annie Lorita Frazier, beautiful and talented soprano of the Alpha Opera Company, who portrayal of famous operatic roles has created such a sensation that theatres are "sold out" quickly wherever she appears; Louise Jackson, musical comedy star whose talent has won her recognition from coast to coast as one of the real stars of our theatres, the wife of "Hardtack" Jackson; and many others too great to mention them all are praising Pluko Hair Dressing. stars says that she is able to make Pluko do for her hair what everything else failed to do, you know she is anxious for all her fellow girls and women to know about it, because she knows how we have all tried time and again most of the reported discoveries which were supposed to make coarse and dull hair glossy, There is only one answer to such wonderful and tremendous testimony for a thing which is proving a real bessing to our race—and that is, Pluko is doing what so many other things promised to do but failed—and the best part of it is that Pluko costs less than other hair dressings. Although the name has been changed to "Pluko" (so it is easier to remember and ask for at your dealer), the amber colored is still sold in the Big Green Can for 25c, and the white dressing in the Big Black and White Can for 40c, by dealers everywhere.

Y." AT REGENT 4 DAYS On of the most spectacular scences ever filmed in motion pictures is the big mob scene in the Cosmopolitan picture, "Little Old New York," starring Marion Davies, which opens at the Regent Theatre for four days, beginning Monday. Miss Davies, swung on the shoulder of big Louis Wolheim, is rushed through a mob of a thousand howling men to the whipping post to receive the punishment which the crowd demands because she rang the firebell and stopped the prizefight. The scene occurs in the streets surrounding Bowling Green and the Battery of New York as they appeared a century ago. Over sixty thousand feet of floor space was covered by the pounding feet of the mob and forty-five immense sunlight are lights shot down a brilliance which rivaled the sun and made it appear as though it were really out doors. Director Sidney Olcott and his assistant Saul Harrison, shouted themselves housebound as they followed Wolstein down the streets. The slender little figure of Miss Davies, perched on the shoulder of Wolstein as she is hurried to her doom as silhouetted against the sky above the heads of the crowds. Cameraman cranied madly as the mob swirled around the platform upon which the whipping-post was stationed. The cruel, avenging faces of the mob, the huge, brutal appaure of Woolie, insisted with the fair, fragrant delivery of Miss Bacres as she is hissed to the whipping-post—all combine to make of the scent a most thrilling one. Refusing to employ a "double," Miss Bacres insisted on taking the lashes inflicted by the cruel whip herself. The star insisted it would make the picture much better if she took the lashes off of her shoulders which have been painted by some of the most famous artists in the land, still bear the marks of the cruel blacksmake whip. Although Wolleim could to lay on the lashes as lightly as he could and still register the proper effect it was impossible to spare the dainty little star entirely. CLOUDBURST THRILLS IN NEW SERIAL Showing At the Star On Monday. Sepsisional and gripping, realistically and graphically staged, is the Indian raid on the settlers—hundreds of bowling, riding, swirling, war-mad Indians shooting at the whites with arrows and powder—their circle growing nearer and nearer, the little band of pioneers growing smaller and smaller! Then the timely arrival of cavalry. See the climax in will stir, startle, and that will in "The War a Man's a New Path seriably from the book by Emerson Hough, author of the "Covered Wagon." The serial begins Monday at the Star. Every inch of film is fraught with thrill, suspense and danger when Indians capture the hero and prepare to burn him at the stake and the heroine attempts to rescue him in a manner that requires the utmost nerve and daring. A terrific cloudburst that floods a canyon and traps man and girl is marvelously staged and thrill-packed. The thrill that comes with the doing of dangerous deeds and the thrill that comes with swift, tense, heart-throbbing action fills this story that relates the real dangers encountered by our country's most courageous adventurers — those founders of our Western civilization. With riding, furious fighting, masterly plotting, fearless daring and valiant deeds make the screen version of Emerson Hough's popular novel as powerful and entertaining as the original.

FILM FIGHT TURNS IN TO REAL BATTLE Hundreds of Men Forget to Stop When Scene Is Finished. Thousands of dollars worth of valuable period furnishings were destroyed in staging the highly exciting light scenes in "The Man From Brodney's," a Vitagraph special production, coming to the Roosevelt Theatre next week. Very valuable draperies and paintings as well as satuery were mixed hand-to-hand struggle of a small group of white men and women defending their mansion against rebels on the island of Japan, in the South Seas, where the story is had. J. Warren Kerrigan, who plays the leading role of the "Man From Brodney's," asserts the light scenes in the picture are the most realistic in which he participated in "The whole thing was so real," Mr. Kerrigan told after the filming of the scene, "that I had to battle with all my strength to keep from being overwhelmed by the brown-skinned men who made the attack. They seemed able to fight, and for a long time all of us forgot that the scenes were actually being filmed. No better light has even been photographed to my knowledge. "The battle raged so furiously that when Director Smith had finished taking the scene the attackers, failing to hear the shouts of the director and his assistants to stop, all signals to cease were disregarded. As a result the entire production staff had to jump in and join us in the defense. The failure to understand was due to the fact that real natives were employed in the scene and few these could understand English. The afternoon was one of the most exciting hours of the picture. Action in the light scenes was constantly carried out of the range of the cameras. Special barriers had to be built about the cameras to prevent them being overturned and damaged in the struggle. SEVEN O'CLOCK IS BUGABOO HOUR Hour Proves Hoodoo In "Brass," Big Feature Film At Dunbar 2 Days. Days. Beware of the final seven o'clock in the evening, newlyweds, for if you don't the divorce courts will get you! So an expert on being "happy though married" told Marie Prevost, the screen actress, when she con-ulted "him the better to know the ins and outs of the married. For Miss Prevost may be a bride herself some day, and being modern, she wanted to inform. This is what she was told: "Seven o'clock in the evening breaks or makes the home. Up to that hour what a couple has done has been prescribed by duties in business sor house. When seven o'clock sounds, however, the slate is clear. If the man and woman can spend the evening together in harmony, their married life is going to be happy; if not they will put a heavy land in the divorce court. This holds true of Philip and Marjorie Baldwin, leading characters in "Brass," a screen adaptation from Charles G. Norris' novel. The couple got bored just after suppertime, one wants to go with his fellow companions, the other wants the sparkle of champagne, the gayety of cabarets. The divorce court lashes them, after which they begin to fall in love with others, making for strong situations and climaxes in this latest Warner Brothers' classic of the screen which comes to the Dunbar Theatre Monday and Tuesday of next week.

MAY BE AMENDED Provision To Safeguard Equal Distribution To Negroes In South Sought. By Wm. N. Jones Washington, D. C. Jan. 31. The general education bill to create a National Department of Education and appropriate around $160,000,000 for the equalization of educational opportunities, the equalization of teacher injuries, and to decrease illiteracy, is now under consideration by the Senate Committee on Education and Labor. Although this bill has behind it the active support of the National Education Association as well as many welfare bodies throughout the country, powerful opposition developed to the measure, in complete opposition to the measure, and some are opposed to certain provisions, or lack of provisions. In this later class are those protestants, who claim that bill does not address the current distribution of this fund without regard to race. N. A. A. C. P. Opposes Chief among those appearing before the committee this week was Miss Florence Kelly, white, a member of the Executive Committee of the N. A. A. C. P., who pointed that the provisions allowing State control of the fund as to distribution of these equally of could not fully protect the interests of the Negroes in the South, where the custom of discrimination prevails to the disadvantage of Negro education. It was pointed out by Chairman Sterling that this provision of the measure might be properly amended, as the sole object of the measure was to reduce ends of its farmers was to equalize education without regard to race. The measure was also opposed in the hearings by representatives of the Catholic Church, and by the National Federation of Labor. The ground for opposition comes, it seems, from directly opposite views as offered day the N. A. A. C. P., in that they oppose the National Control of the measure as prejudicial to States rights. It was pointed out that in his recent inaugural address, the Rt. Rt. Governor, the constant encroachment of the National Government in State domain. Johnson Speaks For South Principal T. J. Johnson, who heads a secondary training school in Shelby County, Tennessee, and whom the Legislative Committee of the National Education Association, white asked to appear before the committee to express attitude. Non-attitude, the measure, spoke to the committee. Wednesday. Johnson was introduced to the committee by Miss Charl O. Williams, president of the National Education Association, and made a lengthy plea for the passage of the measure. South Needs Money "Although," he said, "the South is awakening to the educational needs of the Negro, and some of the counties and states are yearly increasing appropriations for purpose, there are other white counties that are either other white or coloured children proper educational advantages. There are counties in Tennessee which have four month terms for white children and four month terms for black children; are they good and litterary far above what it should be." Miss Williams, who is also chairman of the Legislative Committee of this organization was formerly Superintendent of Education of Shelby County, and is Internationalally known, for her proffessional and marked ability in the education field. Under her administration an almost disgraceful system of Negro schools was developed into a system rated among the best in the South. She is fighting for the passage of the measure. Some Features Opposed The bill appropriates $7,500,000 for the Americanization immigrants, $50,000,000 for theization of educational oppoars in elementary and secondary schools, $20,000,000 for the promotion of physical education and instruction in health and sanitation, and $15,000,000 for preparation to teach public service. The main points of objection comes from the provision which states: "All funds apportioned to a State—shall be distributed and administered in accordance with the laws of said State in like manner as the funds provided by State and local education authorities for the same purpose; State—shall be apportioned to a said State shall determine the courses of study, plans, and methods for the carrying out of the purpose of the various sections within said states and in accordance with the laws thereof." Unless the provisions of the measure are chosen and that will compel the state to apportion this money equally and as per capital white and colored children, there are many who feel that the authorities in the far South will use it in the same manner as local educational funds are used. **DETT IN OKLAHOMA** Oklahoma City, Okla., Jan. 31.

GROUND BROKEN FOR GIBRON'S INSTITUTE New Industrial School In Southern Maryland Will Be Ready By*Fall. CAMPUS LAID OUT Plans Call for Other Buildings, Roads and Athletic Field. Ridge, St. Mary's County, Md. Jan. 28. Ground was broken here Thursday for the main building of the Cardinal Gibbons Institute which will be erected during the spring and summer. Simple exercises were held with a large gathering of men and women, both white and colored, from St. Mary's County and elsewhere. The exact site was determined upon by the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees, Admiral William S. Benson, white, chairman. The services consisted of prayer by Rev. John La Farge, S. J., white of age, a member of the Trustees and an address by Admiral Benson. The first soil was turned by Edward Colbert, an elderly man of the District of Columbia, who made the first cash contribution to the building fund, a gift of $100. The building will be a two-story structure, 72 by 42 feet in size, with a basement over ground on the rear and will cost $35,000. It will be constructed of 12 by 24 inch cement blocks. The roof will be with red asbestos shingles. The floors will be cement, making a fireproof building. The ground floor will be divided into six class-rooms and offices. The basement will contain a kitchen, dining room, and laundry. The second floor will be used for this purpose. The third floor will have with four corner rooms for toilets, bathroom and private rooms for two instructors. The plans call for stairways at both ends. Later this second story will be used for an assembly hall when the new dormitories for boys are built, and the basement will be used for the ordinary parment has a building of its own. The present farm house, which is in excellent condition will be used for quarters for the principal of the school, St. Peter Claver Church and Hall on property adjacent to the Cardinal Gibbons Institute make it unnecessary to provide a separate auditorium at the present time. These buildings will be built from blocks made on the property where excellent sand and gravel has been found. They will be placed on a high level twenty-one lot on the northern end of the property, with gravel building on the south the level 200-ree farm, and beyond, Smith's Greek and the Potomac River with the Virginia shore on the other side eight miles in the distance. Ground plans for these buildings were also approved by the Executive Committee. The buildings have their site already deprived upon it, and their historical significance has become memorable with this first building. A level tract in one of the buildings has been received for an athletic field and park. The location of roadsways has been fixed. In all this ground planning the gratuities services were used of Dr. David L. Hamilton, of the Department of Agriculture, commonly professory landscape designing, Cornell University, Mr. Louis Rouleau, of Washington is the architect. BIBLE CLASS MEETS The Fannie J.

MAY DECLINE OFFER "I Have Not Made Up My Mind," He Tells Afro Reporter. There is one minister in this country who seems not to be allied with the bishopric. He is Rev. J. W. McCoy, pastor of the Pennsylvania A. M. E. Zion Church. Friends in all parts of the country have written him urging that he enter the race, but he seems disinclined. "It is true that I have received offers of support from influential persons," says Dr. McCoy, "but I have not made up my mind to enter and do not know whether I will. I realize, however, that now Dr. McCoy has been a member of every A. M. E. Zion General Conference since 1504. The bishops at their recent seminural session at Winston-Salem, N. C., recommended the election of four new bishops to take the chairmanship. A. J. W. Alstocke, A. J. Warner and R. B. trince, who have died during the present quadrennium. making of elec- tric power.

Subleases include Ruth L. Mc Meachan, M. Craig contralier, J. Maurice Rutler, tenor, and Garfield W. Tarrant, of New York, baritone. Mr. Tarrant's work stood out especially and generous apiece was given also Mrs. McAhee and Miss Craig, whose "Oh, Rest in The Lord" made a wide appeal to the audience. Wilson handled the organ in his usual masterful way, and Herbert F. Johnson was at the piano. The chorus of sixty voices showed the result of intensive training and boasted of a remarkable collection of bass singers. It was handpicked because the notion of the director did not permit every singer to see him. The voices of Catherine Hill, Marguerite Turner and Alverta Whiting blended beautifully in a female trio. Those in the double chorus included: Helen Cooper, Laura Marshal, Eileen Ivory, I. B. Coston, Lovie Huskell, Annie Nichols, Katie Miller, Alverta Whiting, Purnell Hall, Howard Cassell, Chrone Lowry, Wai, H. H. Anderson, Edgar Wilson, John Woodward. DR.

He declared: "If a preacher is not going to live right he ought to get out of the ministry and go to hell like a gentleman."

Dr. Moses put great stress on the necessity of the Baptists being in one Union Conference. Dr. Gray believes the outlook for one Conference is good.

Greater interest is being manifested here in the coming convention of the Lincoln League of America to be held in Illinois. New York is in any meeting held by the race in 25 years. Not Opposed To Sanhedrin The claim that the Lincoln League is opposed to any other organization and seeks through its powerful influence to break down any other organization is stoutly denied by the officials of the Lincoln League. The League declare that the Lincoln League is constructive, not destructive, and that it wishes all organizations well. That the Sandhdrin meets in Chicago at the time of the Lincoln League is the fault of the Sandhdrin. The constitution of the Lincoln League provides that its convention shall be held on the 15th of April and every convention of the League has been held on Lincoln's birthday. An official of the League stated that the Sanbedrin changed the date of its meetings three times, and only selected Chicago and Lincoln's birthday after the League had set the time and place of its meeting. The Sanbedrin was called to meet in Chicago in November and the meeting postponed, as the Lincoln League thought, to accommodate itself to the fact that the Lincoln League would draw a crowd to Chicago. Notables On Program The Lincoln League will devote its sessions to an open consideration of great public questions. The topics to be discussed include "Migration and Its Political Effects," and "The Jim Crow Car." These are only a few of the questions nearest the heart of the American Negro, to which the Lincoln League will give its attention. These discussions will be led by men foremost in public affairs. Among the speakers will be Henry Lincoln Johnson, the only Negro member of the Republican National Committee; Perry M. Crawford, the special counsel; William C. Matthews, former assistant United States Attorney at Boston; Charles A. Cottrill, Ohio; Edward W. Henry, president of the Citizens Club of Philadelphia; Benjamin J. Davis, editor of The Atlanta Independent, Walter L. Cohen, coproducer of customs at New Orleans; rance of Dan Hancock; P. R. Norfolk, editor of The Norfolk Journal and Guide; Robert S. Abbott, editor of The Chicago Defender; Oliver Randolph, assistant United States Attorney at Newark; George W. Harris, editor of The New York News, and others. Chairman John T. Adams of the Republican National Committee will deliver an address to the convention on the evening of February 12. That same evening Roscoe Conkling Simmons, president of the Lincoln League, will deliver his address and Medill McCormick, United States Senator from Illinois, will speak on "Abraham Lincoln." FAMOUS CATERER'S WIDOW DIES The funeral services of Mrs. Emma Simms. 1045 Cathhedral street, was held at the residence at 12 o'clock Wednesday. Mrs. Simms who died at 6:40 Sunday night, was the widow of the late Benjamin Simms, one of the leading caterers of Baltimore city, and an old member of the Madison Street Presbyterian Church.

Treasury Messenger Dies Served Fifty Years. Washington, D. C. Jan. 31. Richard Green, for fifty years messenger to secretaries of the Treasury, was buried in Shiloh Baptist Church. So highly thought of was the messenger that on the occasion of his fifteenth anniversary as a Treasury employee a public reception in his honor was given in the White Law Hotel. Former Secretaries Cortelyou, Guge, Guge, Meadoo MacVeguch, Shaw and Houston attended the reception and gave testimonials of their regard for his kindness. Uniforms For K. P.'s A meeting was held at Pythian Castle, McCulloh and Preston streets, to plan for the formation of a uniformed department. It is hoped to have the department in working trim by the time the Maryland and the Eastern and Western Hemispheres meets here in July. Augustus Fields is the leading spirit in the movement. RACES EQUAL SAYS INDIA'S GOVERNOR Continued from page 1 bro and which are usually dealt with by lynch law. No Apprehension Felt "Now, the fact is," writes Sir Sydney, "that in the British West Indies assaults by black or colored men on white women or children are altogether unknown. No apprehension of them whatever troubles society. I say this as an administrati- to familiar with the judicial stat- tistics, as a resident familiar with all parts of Jamaica and all classes of its population, as the head of a household of women and girls who have frequented the suburbs of Kingston and who have lived for weeks and months in the remote country districts with neither myself nor any other white man within call. Any resident in Jamaica will tell Women Are Safe "A young white woman can walk alone in the hills or to Kingston in daylight or dark, through popular settlements or exclusively black or colored folks, without encountering anything" but "friendly assistance from man and woman." Some ladies may hire a carriage and be driven by Negroes all over the island or trouble or molestation. Offenses against women and children come into the courts. But they are not against white women and children. Whatever may be the cause, it is an indisputable fact that Jamaica and every other West Indian island are safe or white women to be abused in if not safer, which I am European country which I am acquainted."

THOUSANDS BID HAYES FAREWELL Continued from page 1 er and His Lass," by Roger Quilter. The Dovrak song was the finest song for four, though Mr. Hayes reached a very high standard in the Quilter song, a work requiring lightness and finesse of voice. The last group was four spirituals in which he made a tremendous success, especially in the closing one, "The Crucifixion Word", Never Said a Mumbain Word", which was used and defined with great paths both of voice and temperament. Mr. Hayes was heartily applauded after each group and gave several encores. The outstanding characteristics of this really great singer are his sympathy and pathos, his deep religious feeling (shown in the Devotional Sat We Down by the Waters of Babylon), a perfect sense of rhythm, perfection of intonation, and above all, the most exquisite mezza-voce that has perhaps ever been heard in Philadelphia. In sheer quality of voice he does not rank above a good many other tenors on the concert stage, to take on the whole scene of them, but in artistry, in the ability to move an audience, and especially in the pathetic. Mr. Hayes is quite in a class by himself. His full voice is rather dry, but in control of the various shades of the softer tones he develops a wonderful color emunciation, like the peculiar ability he has to carry. His audience with him, is little short of perfection. ATTENTION YOU FOLKS WHO LIVE IN NORTHWEST If you are in need of money, you do not have to go down town to meet your own neighborhood to help you.

In the glow of its gladness, the shade of its tears. But bolter and dearer our memories. Those treasures of feeling, more precious than gold— The love and the kindness and pity she gave Her strength and her life as God gave the day. While vainly alike on her eye and her ear. Fell the scorn of the heartless, the jesting and jeer. How true to our hearts was that beautiful sleeper! With smiles for the joyful, with tears for the weeper! yet, evermore prompt, whether mournful or gay, With warning in love to those going astray. As a cloud of the sunset, show melting to heaven. As a star that is lost when the day comes, then heen. From our lives to that world whose existence is bliss. She has passed to the "Land of the Holy" from this. BY HER CHILDREN. PINDEL—Charles Pindle died January 26, 1923, one year ago today. Some may say that we've forgotten you. Though on earth you are no more, but memory of you us, as you memory of you were before. You shall always be remembered in this world of wary strife. And you shall never be forgotten as long as God gives us life. Gone in the best of your days. Righted in memorials of your death. To sleep in the silent tomb. LARNEY MILLER AND FRIENDS. PINDEL—in remembrance of my dear son, Charles E.

But this hardest of all when He calls for dear mother. BY THE LENIED CHILDREN. GOSS in loving memory of my dear sister, Mary T. Ross, who departed this life January 25, 1922.

INTER-RACIAL COMMISSION ON SEGREGATION Whatever happened in the recent meeting of the Inter-Racial Commission, their carefully worded and published statement will not contribute much to a practical solution of the question of segregation here in Baltimore. One of the objects, we believe, for which an inter-racial committee exists, is to give outstanding men and women of both races an opportunity to get together and thrash out difficult problems effecting racial contacts. To be practical and effective the conclusions of this committee should always be unmistakably clear and positive. Besides the dominant desire of this Commission to preserve good feelings between the races, we are still in the dark as to just what they would recommend about segregation. That's the question. Every section of the city is being organized to prevent what is termed a "Negro invasion." This phase of segregation is more insidious and dangerous than an effort to legalize it for it is being nurtured and kept alive by the worst kind of racial hatred. On some questions there should be no compromise, and we believe the Commission missed a chance for definite good when it failed to state plainly whether it is for or against segregation. ON WEARING OVERALLS There be no sign of more honest action to the community life than the wearingalls are generally worn by men who do the can toil and who can hold up their heads and but there is a custom among some wearers does much lower the dignity of this other way. One day last week on one of the street overalls reeking in blackened grease and dirt sat down in a seat besides a daintily draun. When he got up he left the imprint of increase and dirt on the dress of the feminine. Men who wear overalls should have the same when appearing in public places, on the side as others. For the same reason that this his operating apron, the cook his jacket, serving coat, the laborer should shed his home in clean clothing. To help make this possible industrial plant that proper bathing and dressing facilities to allow their workmen to change the clothes before and after working hours. It would better workmen, but would greatly add of labor and the comfort of the community. There can be no sign of more honest and dignified relation to the community life than the wearing of overalls. Overalls are generally worn by men who do their share of human toil and who can hold up their heads and feel proud of it. But there is a custom among some wearers of overalls that does much lower the dignity of this otherwise valuable group. One day last week on one of the street cars a man in overalls reeking in blackened grease and dirt from the factory sat down in a seat besides a daintily dressed young woman. When he got up he left the imprint of his overcoat in grease and dirt on the dress of the feminine passenger. Men who wear overalls should have the same general pride when appearing in public places, on the street, or on cars, as others. For the same reason that the physician sheds his operating apron, the cook his jacket, the waiter his serving coat, the laborer should shed his overalls and go home in clean clothing. To help make this possible industrial plants should see to it that proper bathing and dressing facilities are provided to allow their workmen to change their working clothes before and after working hours. It would not only attract better workmen, but would greatly add to the dignity of labor and the comfort of the community. NIKOLIA LENIN PASSES Another chapter in Russian history comes with the death of Nikolia Lenin, Premi- sia. This man has been one of the enig- ment age.

It did not Another chapter in Russian history either ends or ends with the death of Nikolia Lenin, Premier of Soviet Russia. This man has been one of the enigmas of the present age. Responsible more than any one else for the most revolutionary change in a national government that has ever occurred, he passes off the stage of life, just when the world is beginning to realize that the regime that he founded is to be reckoned with in world affairs. When Lenin left his job as a laborer and communist agitator in New York and began the movement in Russia that later swept Russia's powerful ruling monarch into oblivion and set into operation the most radical government in history, the world hoped it would be short-lived. But months rolled by and years as an astonished world looked on to see the explosion and the end. It did not come. It has not come. What is Bolshevism? What is the soviet government? Lenin believed that it was possible for a nation of people to live with the opportunities of each individual safeguarded by law. He believed that a system where everybody was moderately prosperous and where everybody felt the economic fortunes and misfortunes together, was better than one in which extreme wealth and luxury was as possible as poverty and wretchedness was probable. The world is slowly coming to this even though entrenched privilege and that group which profit most cannot see the point. Lenin passes but some day the world will feel the full impact of his life. THE EDITORIAL PAGE of THE AFRO-AMERICAN OLD TIMER OFF TO VIRGIN ISLES (On board the Steamship (Investigation) bound for the Virgin Islands with the American Commission.) ```markdown ``` January 22. Somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean. Dear Editor: You axed me to take a little run down to the Virgin Islands with the American Commission what President Coolidge down there to find out what is yours. You did not give me half time enough to pack my bag, and I found myself with my wife's hair brush and my daughter's manicure set instead of my shaving outfit. So I brushed my shiff on my bald head, and shaving with the cook's razor. This here commission did not sail when yore paper said it did. It stopped up in New York a few days to listen to some man named Francis, who just came from the Virgin Islands talk about what they wanted. As near as I can make it out, he said them Islanders want to make rum and bay rum like they use to froze them became United States, and they want to make them sailors sent home, and they want to colld them sent for Governors stand of whites. With these few changes, Francis said, the Islands would be O. K, and go on livin' peaceable like as per usual. This is written in Noo York and I will mail it after I said. Look for another letter, which I will sorable when we get out on the ocean. I will mail it (perviling) at Havana, Florida or Key West, Cuba. Expectfully yours. P.

One of William Lloyd Garrison's most able supporters was Wendell Phillips, who staked his all and was ready at any cost to stand for the suppression of the slave trade. One of his most remarkable addresses against slavery was made in Faneuil Hall, Boston, when at a meeting called to denounce the murder of Loveloy, the then Attorney General of Massachusetts, made a captivating speech that threatened to turn the audience against the cause for which they had met. Rising to the occasion at this important moment under the very shadow of the impending catastrophe, Wendell Phillips claimed the floor and with his marvelous voice, captivated his audience to the extent that the audience's unanimous carried. 92. For whose execution did three American States contribute for the gallows? John Brown, of Ossawatomi, the man who gave slavery its death wound, labored for many years in aiding the cause of anti-slavery. On October 16th, 1859, he attacked Harper's Ferry, Va., and was captured with a number of associates and made a prisoner. He was trial for treason and murder, condemned and hanged; the States of South Carolina, Missouri, and Kentucky each sending a rope to be used for the execution. Kentucky's proving the strongest was used in 93. Who spent 18 years in a penitentiary and received thousands of strips for aiding slaves to freedom? One of the first in the Underground Railway work along the Ohio was Calvin Fairbanks, who early in life resolved to do all within his power to alleviate the sufferings and miseries endured by the slaves. He was arrested a number of times in the act of giving assistance to slaves and committed to prison, where he suffered untold cruelties at the hands of slaves for years in a Kentucky penitentiary and it is said that during those years he received 35,000 lashes. Next Week's Whatnots 44—Who was Thomas Carrott of Delaware? 55—Who was Jonathan Walker? 56—What was the Underground Railroad? 57—How did they all railroad? OVER A MILLION IN GEORGIA The State of Georgia, with a colored population greater than the combined population (all classes) of Delaware, New Hampshire, the only State having more than 1,000,000 colored inhabitants. 'IT'S ALL WRONG' SAYS HIRAM 'IT'S ALL WRONG' SAYS HIRAM Chicago, Jan. 29. —(Dy A. N. P.)—Senator Hiram Johnson, a candidate for president of the United States before an audience of more than 2,000 people at Wendell Phillips High School Friday night, January N. declared himself on the citizenship rights of colored America. "I stand for a man to be judged as a man, and the standard is the same for one set of men as another," declared Senator Johnson. If a man is good enough to fight emment of the country, he is of the principles of the good enough to take part in emment of that country, Southern representation in the Republican conventions is wrong in principle and if I am made president I will appoint Northern colored man to office." HOW FRANCE WILL TAP THE HEART OF AFRICA TRANCE MARSEILLES GRAN MONTERRAZAN SEA SAHARA DESERT AFRICA DAHOMEY ATLANTIC OCEAN CONGO When M. Poincare, premier of France, declared recently that France is no longer a nation of 40,000,000, but of 100,000,000, and that 60,000,000 of them are the black men of the French African colonies, he started something. England, Italy, Spain, Germany, any one of which could give France a tough battle under ordinary circumstances, sees now that a war with France means a war with French Africa too, and it is more than anyone of them will tackle. There is another reason also for the "Cackle" among European statesmen. They know that a black French African trained to fight will make a deep impression upon other black Africans in European colonies, and some day this knowledge of modern weapons will be used by the blacks to win their freedom. Meantime France is preparing for the next war. A new railroad is planned to start from Dahomey in the central part of Africa near Liberia on the Gulf of Guinea and touching Senegal, Niger, and Congo sections, wind through 2,000 miles of the Sahara desert to Oran in Algeria on the Mediterranean Sea. Lateral branches are also proposed. In time of need troops will be brought by the thousand to Oran and ferried 700 miles across the Mediterranean to Marseilles under guard to submarines. Every year 200,000 natives under the law are being called to the French colors in Africa, and every year at least 90,000 of them must cross to Europe to do service in highly civilized mother France. 130,000 black Frenchmen helped beat back German in the last war, and France knows black men can fight. While French rivals sneer at the cannon fodder France is training, and snicker at the intermarriage of the blacks and whites, France pursues unmoved her path of self-preservation, and her African blacks unmindful of what it is all about, are busy getting the only kind of education this modern world respects—education in the art of self-defense. DAY BY DAY By WM. N. JONES. The bill to appropriate $100,000,000 to establish and maintain a National Department of Education with a Cabinet post and minor provisions for equilization on educational opportunities, decreasing illiteracy and Americanizing immigrants, is now under consideration by the Senate Committee on Education and labor. The provisions to the bill as drafted and receive serious consideration. If this measure is to EQUALIZE EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES, it will defeat its own purpose unless it expressly stipulates that Negro children shall receive dollar for dollar in proportion to their numbers. The South is developing, but it has not yet developed to the place where it can be fair and just with our children. If education is to be placed on a national basis with a national standard of opportunities, it might just as well begin with a firm reason to make all children equal beneficiaries without regard to race. At least the National Government cannot join in league with the United States to hang on to principles so subversive to American ideals. When the situation in a city government is such that the legislative machinery has to suspend to find out whether the bosses are pleased with an appointment suggested by the Mayor, it is reaching the breaking point. For the mayor, publicly nominated a member of the Public Service Commission. This, we believe, is ONE OF THE DUTIES OF THE MAYOR. Without consideration on its morals the bosses had to be seen by the city council before action. That's going some. While everybody knows that in most municipalities there is an ground communication between the bosses and public officials, when it comes to the wide-open and above-board tactics of last week, there is a feeling that "much power doth make them mad." Just a little further and the whole rotten thing will break. A young lady writes to disagree with our idea of "where women look for husbands" as expressed in the Day by Day column last week. "You are wrong," she says "fappers get husbands nowadays quicker than those with old fashioned love." The General Education Bill Rule of The Bosses Old Fashioned This young woman is looking on to surface of things. She sees the flare and glitter of temporary affection and attention lavished on a class of girls with only surface vision. She would with prophethic vision look in to those girls she would think that her lucky star not to be one of them. They are the ones men soon forget. There are times in every girl's life when it is proper for her to distribute her attentions among a group and enjoy the romance of puppy love. But when the one serious time comes, she can make no mistake by playing all to win on the right man. If she doesn't want to be the ones anyway. She still is square with her conscience that she has the old fashioned love in her heart and soul. In order to be able to attend a certain social function at the National Capitol during the holiday a young man told the writer that he found it necessary to put his best suit in pawn in order to be able to rent another suit to "put up the proper front" at this affair. "There is a growing tendency to appear that you do not fit into the facts of things and this tendency cannot but help sinister deep into the character of the those who practice it. We would all be happier and better if we make sure that we are not parading under false spiritual and moral appearances, no group can go very far with the latter faults without serious consequences. A Daniel Come To Judgment Says Judge Charles A. Woods, a Federal Jurist from North Carolina, now on the bench in Baltimore, in sentencing a man charged with violating the Volkswagen act. "The law is here and should be obeyed as was in any other law which we have. The South believed in slavery, but since it is on our statute books the law prohibiting slavery must be obeyed." All of which is well and good. But honorable sir what have you to say of this clause of the Constitution so long upon the Statute book and ignored by the State from which you have "The right of the citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude. Perhaps the learned Judge will tell the learned of his native State a this or two when he returns. Isn't human loikie a funny thing? KELLY MILLER SAYS The Lincoln Political League and the All Race Conference (Sanhedrin) meet in Chicago at the same time. Chicago contains over 100,000 Negroes. Surely it is big enough to accommodate both Abraham and Lot, especially when there is no issue in dispute between them. Bright Prospects for the Sanhedrin As the time approaches for the assembly of the All-Race Conference in Chicago, the prospects become brighter and brighter. About forty national organizations will be represented by accredited delegates. These involve every kind and organization, organized effort now functioning in the field of racial endeavor. The Negro press has been most generous in publishing the progress of the movement in the hands of the committee of arrangements. The local committee in Chicago has taken hold of the immediate arrangements in that city with energy and enthusiasm. Special thanks are due the Associated Negro Press for broadcasting the information to the central committee has furnished them from time to time. Much concern is expressed best the movement become ensnared in the moses of partisan politics. The committee can assure the public that there is not the slightest danger that any sinister political influence will be allowed to invade its precincts. Every effort was made to set the meeting far enough ahead of political activities looking to the ensuing campaign to ward off this inevitable suspicion. The meeting was set for the first week of work, and of work necessary to arrange the preliminary details made permanent necessary. It happens, unfortunately, that an organization of a purely political character will meet in the same city at the same time. In innumerable queries reach me concerning the reason for this strange juxtaposition. The fixing of the date when the embdenir took place last September, and the results were broadly announced throughout the colored press. The committee would have been glad to make an adjustment, of dates so as to avoid overlapping, if there had been opportunity to do so. I do not see that there is any likelihood of interference of funerals would be an unusually spectacle if the first real serious attempt to bring the race together on a comprehensive plan should be hindered by any semblance of counter irritation. It can at once be taken for granted that any attempt negatively the influence and effect of any worth while movement by rival procedure falls beneath the level of the high minded attitude of all who approach the race problem so seriously that certain or hundred thousand Negroes. Surely it is big enough to accommodate both Abraham and Lot, especially when there is no issue in dispute between them. The Sanhedrin Program The program of the Sanhedrin as announced in the press reveals the general aim and plan of the conference. It does not overlap the sphere and function of any constituent organization of which it is composed, but is comprehensive of them all. In illustration, we do not discuss agitation against specific evils as is done by the N. A. A. C. P., or the Equal Rights League, but the function of agitation in particular is governed of advising political alignment and partisan demands, we shall consider the political factor in the racial equation. The idea of unity runs like a thread throughout the program. It is the thought of the committee to organize commissions on the basic interests into which our racial interests are naturally divided, and to have these commissions deliberate throughout the session and testest terms the creed for the race on the topic presented. The results of these several commissions will be assembled and consolidated by a general committee and published in a permanent and enduring form. Of course, the conference will formulate and direct its own proceedings. The addresses set on the program are in accord with the thought and regulate the procedure. They do not, in any sense, express the full meaning and effect of the conference. The Sathedral is to be a conference, and not merely a display of oratory. The names listed on the program will not necessarily contribute most to the conference. The comparative analysis grows out of our too great reliance on oratory rather than careful thought and deliberation. The Permanent Outcome The committee on arrangements does not assume any ultimate wisdom as to the outcome or final results of the conference. We invite the careful and precise siderealization of the most thoughtful members of the conference who may have any advice of value to contribute. We are determined, however, that the conference shall not degenerate into oratory and resolutions—merely this and nothing more. It must contribute some permanent effect upon the attitude, the determination and the endeavor of the race as a whole. In discussing this feature of the conference with one of our profoundest thinkers, who has a statesmanlike interest in and understanding of the complexities of the problem, he felt that the conference could not fail without bring together representatives of the various organizations, agencies and activities of the race who should sit down for a week and deliberate seriously upon some efficient plan of united thought and action. Wherever the outcome, it will be the joint product of our best minds acting in unison. It is the purpose of the Sanbedrin to destroy any existing organization but to fulfill it is to be a uniting agency synthetic of the host there is in them all. The permanent form of the conference might well be embodied in a committee which should serve a certain purpose through which existing organizations might act on matters of race-wide concern. The Greater and the Lesser Sanhedrin Under the Jewish dispensation there was the Greater Sanhedrin, which sat at Jerusalem and formulated general regulations for all Jewry. The lesser Sanhedrin applied to the cities and local and limited jurisdictions, with powers and functions similar to, but controlled by the broader powers of the emperor. It so happens that our situation forms a happy analogy. I spoke in Philadelphia last Sunday to the newly formed Forum, and learned that it was organized upon the pattern here suggested. There are one hundred and four different, irrelate organizations in that city. The Forum endeavors to furnish a common platform and channel of expression for them all. It also aims to co-ordinate them in a common endeavor, directing any undertaking of city-wide moment. The Organizations Society of Virginia furnishes also the form of an idea upon which the Sandhill might build, our various organizations, and we will federate their local organizations for essential local purposes without sacrificing any of their loyalty to the parent body of its type, of which it may be but a local chapter. If these might form a organization, doing no in the central Sandhill, the ideal scheme would be performed. The Ministerium The race can hardly hope to perfect any effective movement without the hearty good will and cooperation of the church. Our religious leaders have shown the greatest stethesmism, yet exhibited by the race. They have organized the vast self-sacrifice to definite well working denominations and societies. These have stood the test of time and the strain of long usage. There is today no way to reach the mass life of the race except through the organized life of the churches. Any attempt that ignores their sympathy and good will is doomed to failure on the soil. It is particularly difficult to that all of the branches of the Christian churches will participate in the Sabbathrin. In every city there is a ministers' meeting, which forms the skeleton of a local conference. While these meetings are for the most part for purely decorative and spiritual purpose, yet the situation is such that they are frequently used to consider secular civic and social matters for the common good of the race. The fullest possibility for racial good of such ministers unions is often frustrated by denominational rivalry and prejudicey. Without attempting to specify how this could be worked out in detail, it is perfectly clear that the ministerium city might meet at suitable intervals, where all denominational issues might be laid aside, and the time devoted to the consideration of the moral, civil and social needs of the community as a whole.

A sergeant in one of the camps during the late war was in charge of a detail of prisoners. He received orders to see everyone took a bath on certain days. Upon asking the various prisoners whether they had followed the order, the sergeant replied in affirmative, finally he asked a foreigner who spoke our language with difficulty, "Private Knels, did you take a shower bath?" shwipw Knicks (badly [rightmost])—"No there are missing?"

A Few Flowers for Father A Few Flowers for Father No use telling me there isn't a perfect man on earth. I know one and have lived all of my life behind his roof. One simple word sums up his perfection—kindness. He has never been wealthy, but poverty has not warped his cheerful nature. "He makes the best of any situation arising and maintains a acency, optimistic disposition than all. He makes no display of his good deeds, but pays his tithes direct to "the stranger that is within his gates," and in his every-day life typifies the One of whom was said, "Inasmuch as we have done it unto the least of these ye have done it unto me." His associates respect him, his neighbors like him, his friends love him, and his daughter knows that while he lives there will be one perfect man. He is my father. M. P. Perfect Men Not Scarce "Well, now, be there any such critter? Ay, ay, scores of them. But they are all married—for a perfect man just simply won't stay single. He wants a wife and kiddies of his own. His is the homing heart—a more house or roof won't do. It's the real home he desires. He does not stop at wanting it, he goes and gets it. He is head of that home—to bring up his children and will not be brought up by them. He will love his neighbor and his neighbors' children as himself, but not his neighbor's wife as his own. A perfect man will pay into the treasury of his Lord a tenth of his income. He will have learned long since to take his Christmas egg without the noose of a perfect man without the noose of his country. He will be extremely careful in his choice of a mate. Should she refuse him, he will marry her anyway, and thereafter kiss her at—least once a year and acknowledge to her that she is his better half and his boss.

Getting Baby to Sleep Unless a baby gets plenty of sleep, he is certain to be nervous, irritable, and to grow more or less debilitated. During the first year, as a general rule, the more babies sleep the better. During the second wear 14 hours is the ideal amount, and order to get to sleep the night must be supplemented by a nap of two hours during the daytime. To encourage sheep the infant should be placed alone regularly at the same hour each afternoon and evening in a quiet partially darkened room or in a protected situation in the open air. A baby put on bed clothes and be expected to go to sleep promptly the next; not only should a baby be rocked, fussed over, or otherwise pampered at his bedtime hour. Such a practice is certain to become habitual. Not only is it important for a baby to sleep a sufficient number of hours out of every 24, but he should soundly wake up. Young mother's ability to make the mischief of disturbing their babies by unnecessary attentions. The less done to a baby while he is asleep the better. Often babies are kept awake by the mistaken ministrations of solicitous mothers who fail to appreciate the fact that their babies' whimpering is in reality an appeal for sleep. A point, too, will be made that babies just before bedtime results in bed-wetting and consequently an unnecessary disturbance. These admonitions are culled from a sensible article in Hygiene magazine. Last summer I look some fine ripe tomatoes and green beans to town to sell. The groceryman would not even look at them or offer me anything, but a basket on the counter not nearly as nice as mine. Before I left the store a customer came in and asked the price of tomatoes. Eight cents a pound, he was told. The customer complained they ought to be cheaper. "Yes," said the grocer, "but the farmer is holding up the price. That made me so mad!" I had to return home with my tomatoes and beans as I could not sell them at any price. Mrs. W. F. ALLEN.

H.—Do not sit in the car with the young man. If your parents are still awake, invite your escort in for a few moments; otherwise, bid him good night and go right in without carrying at the door.

If your girl loves you, she will stick by you and you will you can make a house for her. It is the fair and mainly thing to offer to break the engagement.

Her Leap Year Privilege Anyway Dear Annie—Some time ago I was employed in a factory and became acquainted with the assistant that position he is not allowed to go with any of the girls in this factory. I quit work and am not connected with the store. Would it be proper for me to ask this young man to accompany me anyway, and I would seemingly with a longing look on his face, to talk to me, but always something prevented? He is a stranger in town. Should let him take the first step? AMERICAN BEAUTY. There is no reason why you should not invite this young man to call if you enjoy his friendship. "Never Say Die" Dear Amie—I am deeply in love with a young woman of my age. 30. She is married, but has not been living with her husband for years. I love her and have asked her to marry me. I am in a position to provide a comfort home and a kind for them. She doesn't feel as if she could love the second time. She goes out with me, and is always glad to have me call, yet gives me no more consideration than a social friend. I have tried in every possible manner to win her affection and can't. Shall I give up trying? W. A. Never give up trying, but do not give all of your time to one girl. As long as you are in love with her, you will not be interested deeply in others, but in someone well for you to find diversion in your life. Would I Marry Him Again Would I marry my husband again? Just now as my husband drove off in the car and turned at the corner to wave a cheerful goodbye to me the thought popped in my mind again? Most surely and not wait so long the next time either. He was 40 and I was 31 when we were married. Our courting extended over a period of three or four years. I was a teacher, much more engrossed in work than myself and seemingly undemonstrative man. It was not a case of love at first sight, it came slowly, but was built on the kind of a foundation that lasts. I truly believe God brings hearts together in order to mold their lives into each other and together. We followed each other half way around the world to reach a tiny western town to get our introduction. I believe He drew us on and on toward this meeting and its results. We are complemented by lightshifting and "lightshifting is quiet, patient and slow. He has the qualities I lack to make my life a serenely happy one. I thought I loved "John" when we were married, but I have found this was only the beginning.

For months we thought I was smitten with a most dreaded disease. There was no drawing away on "John's" part, but tender love and patience.

"Since writers like these make their appeal directly to the color vanity of the unthinking and usually incompetent whites, they do a great deal of harm.

I refer especially toThomas Vixon, who according toThomas Vixon, who according tomissing of those who write againstthe Negro. According to Vixon, onedrop of Negro blood damns itspossessor, mentally.

This man is themost mischievous of the manyliterary sharpers that prey on theemotions of the novel-reading public. "There are many points of resemblance between the apostle and this type of literary man. They use intellect and motherhood, those highest gifts that Omnipotence gives to man and woman, respectively, not as a means of blessing humanity, but to blight it; these authors are a living by catering to the lowest of people—prejudice; the prostitute by catering to the lowest human passion—lust. The prostitute's aim is to make money, though in doing so she strengthens mankind's greatest enemy—Disease; their aim is also to make money—though they strengthen the twin-brother of that enemy—Ignorance. The prostitute, the counterfeiter, the vender of diseased meat and the Thomas Vison type of author are the four greatest perverters—who are holding forward to the time when the average reader of novels will have enough self-respect not to surrender this emotions to the will of men of this low type." The Senator did not reply. Dixon continued: "But it is only non-thinking whites who allow themselves to be thus swindled. The arguments of these writers, scientific and sentimental, are so painfully aggravated that were it not for hysteria these non-thinkers could not but see through the cheat, so transparent it is. One of the heartiest laughs I've ever had was after reading one of the Negrophobic books. Honestly, I laughed the man who had to carry a sound such thought of a found in most of the leading libraries of the country. In the copy in the Chicago library I saw all sorts of actions against the author. This one on page 124, interested me (I have it here in my notebook); for I think that I saw a fool. I was born in Chicago and have a colored teacher and several colored friends. You don't know colored people of the North, you fool—Written by a whiteboy, fourteen and a half years old." "I read the book through twice and it reminded me strongly of a filter, whose function is to let the good escape and retain all the impurities. And in this insurance, as the filter was an animated one, it deposited its own mud. I found the book a most interesting study of the human being, but the top—Robert Wilson Shufeldt, Lauter when I saw the man himself I was not surprised. He possessed one of the surliest faces I have ever seen on a human being—just like a dog getting ready to bite. Evett Thomas Vivon, with his wild-eyed, neurotic way, can see something good in Negroes, but to Shufeldt everything is like a green persimmon. This man simply hates humanity and uses it to manipulate him. He tells with great gusto how he had Negro boys to commit self-abuse for twenty-five cents, and uses the instance to prove the depravity of Negroes. Dr. Robinson of the Medical Review of Reviews says that there is a shameful chapter in the history of American medicine entitled 'The Negro. I am sure that Shufeldt used to teach him that chapter. Clever, with her magic wand, used to transform man into the kind of animal whose nature They suggested—lions, tigers, jackals, as the case might be. The companions of Ulysses, as you will recall weed out the tiger and this sorbler it is difficult to conceive how he could have escaped the incarnation of a scavenger—buzzard. Although Shufeldt's book is so interesting a study of his putrid soul I obey to its presence in a library. I have read in volek licks, Job and Fabre. In most of the leading libraries even tame and innocuous sex books are kept from the general public, while here is a dirty sex-book open to youths. The proper treatment of such a book would be to treat it as we do the impurities in the reading public is concerned, or in a museum of monstrosities for the use of sociologists. To my mind there are three points held in common by these authors. First, they invariably begin by declaring their sympathy for the Negro whom they then lambast with a vindictiveness that makes me wonder how they would ever be able to express themselves had they declared themselves enemies; second, the kink in their vision; and, third, the great preponderance of their emotions over their intelligence. As a rule they evince all that lack of reasoning power ROUGH DRY—9c F STARCHED FLA The Druid MAdisc 1634 Druid Hill Ave. Call VErnon 6016 IMANTO By J. A. ROGERS Other Stories Protected by the Kel ing the influence of books, such ward?" asked the Senator. He these make their appeal di- the unthinking and usually a great deal of harm. Any group of humanity, however ter than any other group, has they attribute to Negroes. The historical preacher in Thomas Vixon's 'Freckled Jeopard' has his exact counterpoint in a Negro reverend' and has his own considerable fame and fortune by stirring race hate. Thinking citizens will laugh at men of this type—never take them seriously. I speak against them merely because I see how they are adding to the already large sum of human misery. "But some of these men succeed they are really expressing their honest opinions," said the Senator. "For that matter," replied Dixon, "so do burglaries and hold-up men express their honest opinion of private property. Some of these men as you say, sincere, but for that matter cannot a half-wit be quite as sincere as the wisest man? There is Prof. William B. Smith of Tulane University, who has written a book to prove that the Negro is not a prove that Is Prof. Smith more sincere than the Dowleites of Zion City. Ill. who maintain that the world is flat and has four corners like a table?" Dixon took out his notebook and said: "Lost you might think I am exaggerating I will give you a sample of the logic of these Negrophobists. This is from Shufeldt: 'Black wrenches,' he says, 'are constantly sought by white men of the various planes of society for carral gratification.' He goes on to say that the far greater part of the terminology he uses is white men, and then further on as a remedy against amalgamation he advocates the emasculation of Negroes." "Here's another jewel from the same writer. He speaks of mulattoes: 'Some are wonderfully handsome creatures,' he says, 'with superb figures but handsome and the physique is impeccable.' The American skunk is likewise a beautiful creature. It is only a black animal with more or less of a white stripe in it that is given to stealing chickens, and can, when irritated, elevate its tail and raise the most outrageous bites. It is also the chick the progress of any Anglo-Saxon, however robust and civilized he may be." "Here is something yet more humorous. This was uttered in the hall of the so-called greatest deliberative body in the world by one of the illustrations type of statesman the South usually sends to represent her. 'Go down to the Pension Office, says this verbal pyratechnist, and take out the Africans. Down to the Warriors Navy Building and to the three sons of the big brown region who sit there with big brown drops of sweet sweating out of their foreheads. Kick them out! Turn this brood of African tree-dimbers out to earn a living on the farms and in the fields." The Senator laughed heartily. "But it is to the whites that these stupid men of letters are doing the most harm," continued Pigeon. "Their mission so they say, is to uphold white supremacy. They, however, could find no surer way of shattering it. If the color jiggers of America, Australia, and South Africa had the ability of seeing beyond their own noses they would see that the great effect of their writings is to excite the dress or race against the whites and to increase hatred for the whites all Your Hair Can Be A Crown of Beauty No longer need you wish for beautiful hair.

When the average white person reads one of these distresses against darker humanity its effect is to make him push his chest out a little more; but when a non-white reads it it stirs him a thousand times more powerfully to push that chest in again. All the darker countries in the world are suited to one is an insult to all. And don't forget that the darker races outnumber the whites four to one. If this sort of thing keeps on the day will surely come when white men will find as much difficulty in traveling in certain countries as the Chinese and the Japanese have in the United States and Canada today. No man or group of men can afford to insult others gratuitously; they are mortal. Being so they must weaken some day. (To be continued next week.) MARYLAND MARYLAND BEL AIR, MD.

In passing | might state that 1am i native of New. York State, now residing in North Carotina. To begin with, there is more thin a grain of truth in “Prof. Pudge's” comnient. At the vers warst, he can merely be accused of heing too broad in his statement. Let us ect aside all mawdtin sen- timentality and look facts in the face, Colleges atl aver the country are rated according te entrance re- quirements, staffs of instruction, eprriculums, ete, ete, Up until very hitely, how many could meas: juve up to Harvard, the schoo! men- tioned in lust week's article’? And right at the present: moment how Imany of our Southern colleges are there whose stndard ix about or Ja par with that of a Northern high school? We do not need to fish around to find the answer. ‘This condition is an outgrowtt lof our pust econotnic and intellect: gal conditivn, It takes time anc a enesy to ruise up a Hurvard, Yule or Princeton. Those in control of our Southern schools are constant- ly aiming to bring them to the Northern standard, but with whout x half a dozon ‘exceptions, thelr work is still ahead of them. And we cannot minimize the lnrgeness of their task when we realize that they draw their students from schools whieh go as far as the 10th and th grades and where the sciences are iught with meagre laboratory facilities or none at all. ‘There is often a very great squeamishness which arises amonse Us at the mere mention of the word Northern or Southern which certainly. does not add to racial progress. Thoxe terms represent a schism among the white bre- thren, the tail end of which has heen paswed on to us. Let us take them for what they are, geograph- ica) divisions and nothing more; and xain, let us face the facts. ‘As for “A Reader's” fear that “prof. Pudge’s" comment might hurt thoxe who have attended Southern schools, T will marely say that if a person’ can deliver the goods’ and has the ,material in him, it matters but little as to whe- ther he comes from Harvard or the University of Turkey Creek, “hy their fruits ve shall know them.” ANOTHER READER, Thanks North Carolina Ministers Var evn Lane ow Billy Su oe To the iiditor: T feel safe in saying that East- rn North’ Chentina’ read with ere dateren nnd approval “the rats ed tenuate Ths Aza I ee eign Nowe ana Obwerver, 0 tesielgins N.C regarding the.

All the Eastern League teams were after Pelham but the Sox won out. According, to Charles Spedden the Black Sox line up is complete with the exception of a left hand pitcher. New men signed are Cooper and McClure, of Foster's Kansas City National League, and Catcher Pelham of Penn State, all playing the Pacific Coast. All the Eastern League teams were after Pelham but the Sox won out. Practically an entirely new Sox team will take the field April 26, Opening Day which calls this year on Saturday instead of Sunday. Googles Poles, shortstop, will again be with the Sox. He will sit on the bench a while and break into the game when possible. So many men have left the National League to jump to the Eastern League that Rube Poster has indirectly sent word that he wants peace. His terms are that each league will keep what players it has and there will be no more contract jumping. Because his circuit is so large and his carfare such a big item, Foster's league cannot outbid the Eastern League for players. By next year, he will also be unable to resist the appeal of the fans for world series between the two leagues. Oscar Charleston, $225 a month outfielder with Indianapolis, is getting a big raise of salary for jumping to Harrisburg. Hawana, Cuba, Jan. 24.—Almendaras with Np Winters pitching lost to San Clara today, 3-2. Dibut, Cincinnati Nationals pitcher, was on the mound for the victors, and Rojo behind the plate.

Jan. 31. -Tiger Flowers may be forced to retire from sing unless promoters are able to get some of the so-called champions to meet the Georgia Tornado. He will be compelled to seek other fields for a livelihood, his manager, Walker Miller said today. There are some ten or two good fight clubs throughout the United States that can use the sensation of heightwight Theodore "Tiger" Flowers at their clubs but none are able to get an opponent that will use the mark. "There are few instances in the fight game where a fighter has been forced to quit and seek other fields on account of being too good for any of the so-called champions of his class to meet him. This is the case with Tiger Flowers the. He has never lost a match to a man of his class and has been forced to take on the light heavies and even the big heavyweights in the sport," says管理人 Walk Miller. Nebel, Toledo, Youngstown, Zanesville, Springfield and Barton, Ohio, Detroit, Mich., Grand Rapids, Mich., Jauroz, Mich., Atlanta, Ga., Baltimore, Md., are a few of the fight centers that have been trying for the past two months to secure a suitable opponent for Flowers. Among the well known fighters of the, country most of whom outweigh Flowers, fifteen or more pounds that have performed in Sikh, Panama Joe Gans, Joe Robinson, Jamaica Kid, Tut Jackson, Andy Kid Farnsworth and Frank Carbone. The Golden Gate Athletic Club in Philadelphia is now trying to secure some of the well known white middleweights for a match with the Georgia Tornado for the first week in February and if they are successful, manager Miller states that the New York and put him into the gymnasium where he hopes to force some of the well known middleweights such as Ted More, Roland Todd, Harry Grob or Gene Tumney into a match. WHY THE CELERITAS LOST, The Celeritas were very badly crippled without Louise Parrott, a very dependable guard. The team played a disappointing game due to the fact that they were not in the playoff tree. I expect great things from the team as I have challenged the Orléans after their return game with us, for the City Championship.

SOUGHT STAGE LIFE "Rosetime Revue" Made Them Imagine Themselves Successful Stars. You cannot run off and see the world on $16. Alverna Beatty, 12, 1726 Drudl Hill avenue, and Bernice Alexander, 1322 Carey street, are convinced of this after a week's absence from home in which they did not get out of the city. They declare that Elsie Roberts, 1140 arey street, and another companion were to accompany them, but failed at the last minute. Thursday night of last week the two girls left home with the intention of going to New York to seek careers on the stage. It was said to be Alverna's third run-away They said they sought a room at 1532 W. Lexington street, under assumed names, but the landlord became suspicious because of their youth and turned the two girls down. They then went to the Palace Theatre for a show the host part of the night riding to and fro on a Goyau street car. Inspired by the youth of members of the Rosetime Revue, a musical comedy, which recently played here, the girls wrote Bernard McGraw, of the "Down South Shows" in New York, asking for positions, and here their first appearance, in 1962. Back asking photos and other information as to their ability. Friday morning the girls said they secured a room under assumed names again with Mrs. Chara Hunton, 506 W. Lee street. With only $2 left out of their funds, they went to the Penn Stiepke on Pennsylvania avenue to have photos taken for McGraw. The price of the photos would have taken all their cash, so the girls went to the theatre, where a pharmacist, Theodore Edwards, is said to have informed them that the police were on their trail. All day Sunday the girls remained in their rooms they declared and with their money entirely gone, went out Monday in a vain search for work. Turned down when they applied at a West Fayette street shirt factory, the romance of the runaways began to fade. Tuesday they were back at home. "Never again," says Alvern and the Bernice schools. "Never." BLACK FOREIGNER HAS JOB HERE Turned Down At First When It Was Thot He Was A. U. S. Negro. A large corporation here sent to a similar corporation in New York some time ago and asked an expert in a certain line be recommended for employment here. You may imagine the surprise of the superintendent of the plant when a dark man walked in and laid down his credentials. "You are a N—— and this is a white man's job," said the superintendent. "Pay my expenses back to New York," demanded the colored man. "Say, you don't talk like a N—— where were you born?" queried the superintendent. "In Panama, sir, and educated in Jamaica and in England." "Oh, you only a N—— and I am going to live you." "This foreign born colored man is getting over $2,000 a year in a job that would be denied an American Negro." GARVEY HALL TO BE SOLD AT AUCTION It seems that the dream of local Carveyites to own their headquarters is shattered, because on next Thursday afternoon their property at 1428-30 Pennsylvania avenue, will be sold at public auction. The property was bought when late Rev. James R. L. Diges headed the local branch of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. It was given the name of Liberty Hall, the same that the national headquarters in New York City bore. A mortgage was placed on it. This was before Marcus Carvey was arrested, indicted, convicted and sentenced to five years in prison for alleged use of the mails to defraud. He is now out on bail pending an appeal.

Professor Fudge Says Call VErnon 6016 Desirable Jim Crow Whenever the subjects such as Negregation, Jim Crow and Lynching are brought up we Colored People come to find out how much we love one another, but when the matter has passed over we soon forget. There are some of us, however, who don't forget and who not only love another the year around, but ever go one better, that is to say, help each other. St. Matthew's Church, of 23rd street, is a good example of this year around love. St. Matthew's Church is a young congregation and has been worshipping at its present location for about 12 years, but their worshipping has been confined to the basement of the present building, because at that time there was no stairs. The congregation was small but both living and beating, and in its presence a plan was availed by virtue of which an upper story for the edifice was not occupied. Duj in striving to get the second floor the minister and congregation discovered many things. They discovered that cooperation is necessary by a plan as to be carried out by a number of folks. They also discovered that the Church's Kingdom on earth they could help the race out financially. These discoveries made them employ a colored contractor and builder when they decided to go on with the building program. Mr. John B. Brown, a young man, who was died in Baltimore when three or four years, and who formerly was in the building business in Summer, S. C., in which he was known to be able to build anything from a dog house to a bank, was called upon to erect the temple. Mr. Brown took charge of the situation in the past January and in the next January in the church the con- Mr. Besson did not harass the church each week for his dough, but when he had put on the finishing touches, sent in his bill like a regular contractor and the church paid off like a regular Christian church. The deal was held by the church and its integrity the transaction was strictly "Jim Crow" in that to white people were in on it. I would like to see more of these kind of "Jim Crow" affairs. Hold Up On The Blues I think Baltimore in the last two years has heard all of the "blue" singers. We have had with us at intervals the whole Smith family including Manie Smith, Jessie Smith, Jennie Smith, and a number of lesser Smiths. We have had Lucile Hegerman, Ethel Waters, Albera Hunter, Rosa Henderson and many others, not to mention the local music singers. Some of the blue singers have have gone some have been organizing, but on a whole the public has enjoyed their efforts, but just now the air has become "blue" and some changes must be made. That old saying, "Variety is the spice of life" still holds good even whorl "blue" singers are concerned, so on the night of February 1st, I am compelled to ask the "blue" singers to "pipe down" for a few minutes and give Mimi Anderson of her brown skin control voice in the Doughless Theatre before a Baltimore audience that has been well-fed upon the blues. This occasion will mark the first intermission we have had since the song feast at the Fifth Regiment Armory which was very All MARTIN Instruments are "Handcraft" No matter what kind of a Martin instrument you choose—it is a "Handcraft." There is just one standard of workmanship in the Martin shops and that is hand workmanship. That's the reason that the tone of a Martin is always smooth, clear and unbroken; that's the reason Martin instruments are always easy to play; that's the reason Martin instruments always last longer.

Miss Marian Anderson is of Philadelphia, and barely sang with the Philadelphia Philharmonic Orchestra, which is the best orchestra in the country when the Boston Symphony is out of the country. On her first appearance with the Philadelphia Orchestra she was recalled at least a dozen times by the fashions on her concert. Miss Marian Spirituals arranged by Harry T. Harwell, entitled "My Lord, What A Mormon" and "Heaven, Heaven," Then to show that her voice would fit any kind of a niche she sang, "O Mio Fernande, an Italian bitty. By the way, Miss Anderson's teacher is named Giselle Englert, which possibly coincided for her the Italian theme. My advice to anyone who wants to get an ear full of sweet compo is to hear Miss Anderson out on Friday night. I could not pass this week without asking all of the readers of the "Afro" to give Mr. Harry O. Wilson a rising vote of thanks for the letter which he sent Mr. Charles Greenblatt, the treasurer of the Matson Avenue Protective Association, Mr. Wilson's letter was frank, often out, and amply kosher, Mr. Greenblatt likely had trouble digesting the same.

It developed that Graham had before subtracted one of the bills before passing them over. He was dismissed after being given a chance to count them over and receive "stuart," said Mrs. Graham, "who excels in your hands." Makes Future Appointment George Dorsey, 542 W.
