The meeting was divided into two periods. In the first period, it rewarmed a discussion, an exchange of ideas on classroom decoration, and the meaning of the ratings put on pupils' monthly report cards. During the second period, Mrs. J. Harry Mabell delivered an interesting and instructive address on "health and the Development of Health Debt" during school children. Grade 5 of school under the direction of the teachers Alexs Neumegel and Tiggy have purchased a radio broadcast of the Jones Institute Type Series. It is granted permission to the 1200 miles distance en an indoor loop period with exclusive radio settings and stations 100 and 1000 miles distant have been heard. The one of 100 control is an repeating fern. By it, the radio receiver is made so simple that anyone can operate it. They are also unusually suitable for the occasion without any further assistance by claiming the equipment.

After the separation of schools 112 and 113 in the school class in our building during the last term of the school year ending in June 1922 was 6-B. We were faced by the problem of developing, as rapidly as possible the remaining classes from 6-A to 8-A. When the classes were reorganized in February of last year, a survey was made of a large number of age- and sized pupils. They were selected from grade four, five and six, and grouped in two Opportunity classes. The girls were placed in charge of Miss Nicholson, the boys in charge of Mr. Gross. After one term of intensive work the best of the pupils went to summer school in September they were placed in the 7th and 8th grades.
This rigid covering of ground has resulted satisfactorily for both teachers and pupils. It has also been an inspiration for the latter, whose interest in many cases had been lagging, to have a well qualified S-A Class to send to the high School.

I am sure the children will be glad to be born from one of their former school bodies, Charles Tullett, who is now in Toleio, Ohio, with his aunt, Mrs. Gertha Dickerson-French. He is in the junior High School. The Tullett schools, he says, are divided in age, and he says they are here, but in grades for slow, average and advanced pupils. He was put in the average class when first entering school, but has since been promoted to the ad-

Schoolmasters' Club
A very interesting meeting of the schoolmaster's Club was held on Saturday evening, March 5, 1924. The following representatives of the Federation of Parents-Teachers' Club were present: (1.) Mrs. Laura R. Wheeler who spoke on home economics of the Schools—(a) the enlightened cooperative citizen; (b) the pushing forward of project No. 19, relating to schools No. 107 and 116; projects relating (c) schools No. 103-118; (d) schools No. 109, 110 and 115; (e) a change from a Watchful Waiting Policy to an active participation in all movements relative to improvement of schools. Mrs. Julia E. Carr spoke on "The effect of school buildings upon children and the importance of cooperation". Mrs. Geo D. Iston—"Advantages that should result from the Schoolmaster's Club with the Confederation of Parents-Teachers' Club."
Mrs. Lillian A. Lottier—"The essential characteristics honesty, sincerity, frankness of opinion, necessary for the successful accomplishments of the aim of the confederation of Parents-Teachers' Club. Dr. Edward J. Wheatley mentioned the findings as a result of laboratory conditions at the following schools No. 109, 111, 107, 116 and 118. In order that the children might be impressed as to the necessity of taking care of text books the Federation of Parents-Teachers' Club contemplates advising the holding of a "Care of Books" Week." A cooperative mass meeting of all principals, teacher and parents is being planned for the month of April. The Schoolmaster's Club, went on record as endorsing the work of the Federation of Parents-Teachers' Club and doing all it can to cooperate with it in all its plans for the improvement of school conditions.

This photograph shows the newly organized band of Doctors and Coachmen Clubs. Due largely to efforts of the Ham mann-Levin Co., Inc., Baltimore's leading music house, this band starts out under the most favorable auspices. They have been equipped with high class instruments, including the famous Martin Handicraft band instruments and Leedy drums. The men have placed themselves under an efficient instructor and are applying themselves vigorously in their rehearsal work. It is hoped in a very short time to give a concert which will be a credit to the colored music loving community. The Hamman-Levin Co., Inc., have a special department for the organization of Bands and Orchestras among Clubs, Lodges, Societies, Churches and Sunday Schools, and those interested should apply to them at once in order to get the benefit of the special advantages offered.

Intercollegiate Body Meeting Date From March To December
Lynchburg, Va., Mar. 11.—The Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association held its 13th annual meeting here this week.
The following delegates were present: L. L. Watson Howard; Dr. W. G. Alexander, Lincoln; Dr. W. P. DuPomme, H. H. Gill, Shaw; H. D. Martin, A. A. Branch, and S. A. Barksdale, Union; Gideon F. Smith and Charles H. Williams, Hampton; W. A. Rogers, T. L. Purvey and H. C. Graves, Va. N. and L. T. M. Crowder, J. H. Lawrence and D. A. Jackson, Va. Seminary; L. W. Lehford and Winston Dougles St. Paul.
L. I. Watson, director of physical education at Howard University objecting to the present eligibility rules, declared that athletes who have played three games should still be allowed four years competition if they entered Howard. This would permit an athlete who had played three years at Hampton or St. Paul while in preparatory work to enter Howard college and compete in association games. The result was finally reopened as a committee. Coach W. S. Young, of Lincoln, urged that "prep" and college teams of the association be placed in separate groups. Because of the demand for greater recognition of cohesion, the association办办 collect an annual tennis tournament, the first tournament to be held this spring.
The date of the annual meeting was changed from March to the second week in December. This is considered a major event during the football season. A Committee on Football Schedules was appointed.
The Athletic Industrial Club gave a Dinner supper Thursday night at the residence of Miss C. E. Hall, 1936 McCullough street, Miss Cora Watt is President; Mrs. Emma West, Secretary; Miss C. E.

ALL RACES ARE EQUAL DR.JACOBS TELLS MINISTERS
Good Way to Solve the Race Problem, Is the Response Of President R. W. Jefferson
COLLEGE DRIVE MENTIONED
Baptist Conference Decides To Use Full Energies In Backing Clayton Williams
"All races are equal. All the things that the white race has must come to the colored race" declared Dr. Henry Barton Jacobs, white, in a brief address before the Baptist Ministers Union meeting at Union Baptist Church Monday.
Dr. Jacobs made a plea for the support of the Morgan College drive for $15,000 in order to secure the $50,000 gift from the Rockfeller Board and for the better support of the Henryton Turbulence Hospital. He added that the Maryland Tuberculosis Association had $2,000 in bank which it raised for percentile for colored children. The project for the money is still intact, and will be given to any worthy charity designated. Dr. Jacobs said.
Pointing to Henryton as the latest addition to colored institutions in the state, Dr. Jacobs declared that all things that the white race has must come to the colored race. All races are equal surely all souls are white before God, whether they are in a white or a black body. Race advancement must come slowly, everything cannot be done in a W.C. Anderson declared if the white race had been Dr. Jacobs words and loaded them, a beginning would be made toward the solution of the race problem.
Rev. Luke J. Reynolds, pastor of Trinity Church urged a resolution to support the Morgan College drive. Hev. J. Finster, minister in repelling burglars (until Chayton-Williams University declared that none of the bi-colored schools are getting aid from philanthropists unless they have a white president. The Baptists would be building a neighboring school and they have their own institutions which they must rely on themselves to build up. The resolution was not offered.
Vacant Pastorates
No successor has as yet been sealed to take the place of Rev. R. T. Winn, founder and only pastor of Morning Star Baptist Church. While he held the congregation together for several years, he did not hold several factions. While a number of men have been massed upon, no one has yet been selected to take the place of the Rev. Dr. Harvey Johnson, pastor of Union Baptist Church, who died fourteen months ago. He vacancy at Edgwood M. E. Church, Lutherville, caused by the sudden death of Rev. C. Gilmore Cummings will be filled at the annual session of the Washington Conference next week.

Rev. R. E. Ford conducted quarterly conferences at M. Gibson and Elliott City Sunday. Rev. J. W. Wing is pastor.
Rev. R. C. Simmons is conducting revival services at Mt. Joy Baptist Church, Stricker street, above Laurens.
A bazar is in progress at Shiloh Baptist Church.
The quarterly session of the Central Baptist Association will be held at Pocomock City on March 29. Rev. J. W. Poolem, the field missionary, went to Pocomock City this week to arrange for the session. The officers are Rev. W. W. Allen, president; Rev. Thomas T. Jones, vice-president; Rev. R. D. Johnson, secretary and Rev. Simon Williams, treasurer.
Fountain Baptist Church took title to the property of the white congregation at Chase street and Hartford avenue last Friday. The consideration was around $35,000. Fountain Church will move from its present location on Durham street to its purchased one on April 27. Rev. R. B. H. Green is pastor.
Rev. Agrippa Turner, pastor of Mt. Hope Baptist Church, left for Bethlehem, Pa., this week where he will preach at Second Baptist Church there. Rev. N. H. Toyer will have charge of his church during his absence.
On Sunday, Mar. 16th, at 3 p.m., Rev' A. J. Whitley, pastor of Little Zion Baptist Church, will preach to the Sunday-school of Mt. Calvary Baptist Church, Myrtle avenue and Mosher street.

Richmond, Va., Mar. 13—Sixth M. Zion Baptist Church founded and pastored by the famous Rev. John Jasper whose sermons on "The Earth am flat and the sun do Move were heard all over the generation ago, has split.

This vast country embraces many thousands of square miles in South Africa. The bishop has travelled from Table Bay to the Zambesi and from the Atlantic on our West to the Indian Ocean on the East.

This school has been in contemplation for more than twenty years. It is now a reality. It is constructed of the Eusatoland stone and built in the picturesque mountains of Eusatoland. It will give opportunity for education to thousands of Basuto children in years to come.

REV. C. G. CUMMINGS BURIED MONDAY
Hundreds of Friends of Deceased Minister Fill Sharp St. Church To Pay Final Tribute
STRICKEN IN STATION
Heart Attack Followed His Running Up Long Flight Of Stairs Last Thursday
"He has received his last appointment," declared Bishop M. W. Clair Monday in delivering the principal etiology over the remains of the late Rev. Charles Gilmore Cummings, pastor of the M. E. Churches at Lutherville and Govans.
Hundreds of friends passed by the bler as the body lay in state Monday morning, and at the services, the building was crowded to the doors. Rev. Dr. Cummings, who was a member of the oldest and most prominent families in the State, was stricken suddenly in Union Station last Thursday night.
He had hurried to the station to accompany his daughter to their Lutherville home. He descended to the train platform and not finding her on the train, met the nurse in the room. The exclamation and the excitement were too much for him and heart failure resulted.
Dr. Williams Presides
District Superintendent, Ernest S. Williams, presided at the services. Others who paid five tributes included Dr. Ernest Lyon, Dr. J. O. Spencer, Rev. S. H. Brown, Rev. M. N. Carroll, Rev. W. H. Dean and Evelyn of Washington, Exalted Ruler of Elks. Besides music by the choir led by Miss Annie Hazelton, soles were rendered by Dr. O. D. Jones, Charles L. Spinnard and Mrs. Susan Murray. Other ministers who took part were, Rev. S. A. Virgil, Dr. Beaulieu of Washington, Rev. A. J. Mitchell of Annapolis, Rev. J. S. Carroll and Rev. B. T. Perkins.
Ministers Adjourn
Out of respect for the deceased, the A. M. E. Minister's Meeting adjourned and attended in a body. A large delegation of the Reindeers of which Rev. Mr. Cummings was grand dictator, came from New York and New Jersey. From New York came also Mr. and Mrs. Harry Bearden and son, and Mr. and Mrs. Howard Bearden. From Ashbury, Mr. and Mrs. Howard Bearden, all Grant and George W. Edwards all national officers, Masons, Ells. Odd Fellows and Reindeer were all represented.

WIFE SLAYER'S TRIAL IS POSTPONED
William Sampson Will Face First Degree Murder Charge Tuesday In Criminal Court
LEACH PREPARES DEFENSE
Ex-States Attorney Will Attempt To Save His Client From The Gallows
The trial of William Sampson, on the charge of slaying his wife, which was set for Tuesday in Part 2 of the Criminal Court has been postponed one week.
Former State Attorney, Robert Bees, who will represent Sampson, asked more time for preparation of the case.
Sampson confessed killing his wife, from whom he was estranged when she sought a divorce. He then secured a taxi and rode to the Northeastern station, where he gave himself up to an Afro-reporter who happened to be near the desk.
Indications are that it will be one of the hardest fought murder trials of the year. Atty. Leach told a reporter for this paper that it had not yet been decided just what lines the defense would take.

Benjamin Washington Accused By Five Year Old Goes Free
Benjamin Washington, 909 Madison street, charged with criminally assaulting five year old Dorothy Smith, with whose parents he roomed, was found not guilty by Judge Frank in Part 1 of the Criminal Court Wednesday.
The assault with which Washington was charged is alleged to have taken place on February 6th, according to the testimony of Miss Dorothy Smith, grandmother of the girl, was the second attempt made by him to abuse her.
Although diminutive, even for a child of five years, Dorothy told her parents that Washington had assaulted her while the parents were away. His arrest was brought about, however, following an attempt which some of the inmates of the house was alleged to have
According to her story, Washington had remained in the house to take a bath and when he heard the child coming up, he attacked her and told holding of her, attempted to assault her. Her resistance frustrated his attempt. She then told her grandmother that on a previous occasion he had assaulted her. Washington, however denied any impound conduct with the child, and because of a lack of sufficient evidence he was set free.

SPENT THREE DAYS IN "TIN FACTORY"
Self Made Comedian Returns
This Week In Comedy

Theatre
HAS OWN COMPANY
And They Tour From City To City In a Big Stearns-Knight Eight
The many theatre-goers who laughed at, and with the tall fellow with the perfumed broom and illapplated porter's cap, at the Lincoln last week, perhaps, perhaps, whose every geyser they laughed, was just a few years back a student at the old Carry stray amuse, called the "Tin Factory." The program informed that the gangling, awkward with the pleasures of William Sullivan or "Toupper" as he is called to about the show world. Been 35 years ago in Northwest Baltimore, Sullivan, like a lot of other kids entered the Tin Factory, to see them he then for the term. Three days at the feet of learning proved enough. Young Sullivan then entered the School of Experience.
Being gifted with an extraordinary voice, Sellman attracted the attention of several cafe owners, and was soon launched on the career of an entertainer. Tiring of this work after several sojourns, he managed to play the stage. Using the tips received from the cafe patrons, Sellman purchased customers, box of cork, and a red lip-stick, asked for and received an engagement at the old New Cafe. The theatre in New York was recognized and comedian was recognized at once, and he was in demand by the proprietors of the vaudeville houses for colored people, then just coming into their own. Abent this time the present Mrs. Mary Sellman was added to the proprietors' social circle and once played every colored house in the United States.
Turns Down Offers
With the team and its earnings as a nucleus, the company toured five years without a lay-off. Sellmon must have been born under a lucky star, for his company was founded into Tuske, Oklahoma, the week of the riot. When William Bonlow's company was mobbed in Shreveport, Louisiana, Sellmon's company was booked to follow. But he humorously remarked that, "I had business, somewhere else both times."

Proposed Appropriation For Next Three Years Is Only $7,000
As announced over a month ago in the APIO, Morgan College has been promised $50,000 by the Rockefeller Foundation, provided an additional $150,000 is raised by friends of the institution.
The drive to raise the $150,000 will be launched in a few days.
Small Helps From State
The only institution for the higher education of the race in the State will receive only $7,000 a year for the next three years from State funds.
Founded in 1867, and was at first located on Saratoga street, east of Courtland. The school for many years known as the Contemporary Biblical Institute, moved to a large building at Edmundson and Fulton avenues 40 years ago.
His name was then changed to that of one of its benefactors, the late Rev. Littleton Morgan, white. $50,000 Gift 10 Years Ago It received a gift of $50,000 when a similar sum was raised nearly a decade ago, thus enabling *A* to secure a location of about 50 acres on Arlington and Hilton Hill roads, Harford and Greenmount avenues. Carnegie Hall and an assembly room are about the only structure erected on the campus since the college has been there. Several other large buildings have been remodeled and are being used. The late Emory Kemp, was for the college the head of the college, then came Rev. Francis J. Wagner and the present head succeeded him about 20 years.
NOT AIDED by the Washington and Delaware Conferences and the two white conferences that occupy similar territory, the college is in no sense denominational in its teaching. Over 400 students were registered there last year, including the summer and the autumn teachers in Maryland were educated there and nearly all of the ministers of the Washington and Delaware Conferences.
response, "I have been through it several times, and have never had a moment's trouble." "I was restricted in Baltimore, so why should I expect anything more down there?"
Sellman's comedy is remarkable, in that, when he thinks of a new gag on the stage he maneuvers it or not. He must maneuver the lines so that those playing opposite him are never confused at the change.
Toured For Five Years
Several offers have been made him to join the larger shows, but to date he has rejected them all. One offer from a wealthy man to have his voice cultivated was his desire to have his eyes toward the big things, and seems to have the determination necessary to get them himself. Another evidence of his thrift is the saving of railroad fare by transporting his compass in a specially designed box. 8.7

Real ALAGA Cane Syrup
ALAGA
SYRUP
Milton Gaynes Sprint
Regular shipments of Real ALAGA Cane Syrup are now being received in Baltimore right from where the Sugar Cane grows. It is going fast to make with Peanuts with Hot Cakes and Hot Biscuits for those who know its quality. Persons in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and Alabama especially, prefer it over all other syrups; and can tell you about the "goodness" of Real ALAGA Cane Syrup. Then too for fancy baking and candy making it has no equal. ALAGA Cane Syrup is the entire juice of the Sugar Cane that bolted down to syrup, with nothing added, except a very small portion of corn syrup to prevent sugar in the can. The quality is therefore near that of maple syrup at only half the price, but with a very different flavor. Ask your grocery for the Real ALAGA Cane Syrup.
