SEGREGATION HITS RACE IN CALIFORNIA Restrictive Clauses In Deeds Aimed at Japanese Found to Affect Negroes Also Los Angeles, Cal., April 6—The people of California are watching with unusual interest the outcome of one or two suits now pending involve the right of land owners to write in land deeds restricting in the courts of the state which the lease or sale to "Caucasian." And while it was originally intended, it is said, to affect the Japanese, yet the Negroes and all other races except the Caucasians are affected. This has precipitated a legal fight which promises to be far reaching in its final conclusion. Many years ago it was the fashion say that "Land conveyed should be leased, rented, sold or conveyed to any person not of the Caucasian race." In 1918, upon the advice of Atty. Willis O. Tyler, Homer L. Carratt bought a boine with this restriction in the deed. Immediately a suit was filed by Title Guarantee and Trust Co., to forfeit the Title Guarantee Court, Attorney Tyler defending the rights of his client. A victory was won, the Supreme Court decided that restrictions against "bense or sale" to persons of the Negro race were void. Immediately thereafter the restriction was reformed and made to read: "Nor shall any person non-attention use or occupy sale promise." Therefore, the Title Guarantee Court, a millionaire by payment to a millionaire Alfred Cary, a Negro, because he was violating the restriction against "use and occupancy". When this case went to the Supreme Court, the decision in the Title Guarantee and Trust Co. V. Carratt (183 Pug, 470) was sustained as to the bense or sale, but the Court split the difference and held that the restriction against "use and occupancy" of 1922, the James Investment Co., a millionaire corporation, sold a lot to J. H. Walden, white man, and he in turn permitted Jesse Wailing to use it. The contract contained a restriction against use and occupancy" by a person non-Caucasian. Jesse Wailing is a Negro. A suit was filed to forfeit the title because of the violation of the restriction, and Atty. Tyler the possessor sent a notice (white) and a color (colored) upon adverse decision in the trial Court and appealed to the Supreme Court. As the case now stands the Supreme Court is called upon by the appeal to decide whether or not the restriction against "use and occupancy" follows upon the heels of Johns Investment, Co., v Walden et al. H Lettau sued W. H. Long to forfeit a title because of the restriction against "use and occupancy." Mr. Long, a saunchairman and financial orders bought a five room residence at 1171 E. 41st street, and met the restriction face to face. The case is now pending in the Superior Court of this state. The case of Mr. Long is similar the two other cases as they imply property rights in the United States and it lends right to the Supreme Court of the United States before the final justice is to be had.

HIGH SCHOOL HEAD SHOULD RESIGN Bishop Hurst Says Dissatisfaction With Principal Has Been Current For Sometime PUPILS TAKE A HAND Afro Cartoon and Editorial Posted By Jokers on the Office Door Principal Mason A. Hawkins, of the Douglas High School, has lost public confidence and his own respect should suggest to him that he should take a statement this week by Bishop John Hurst. Bishop Hurst's statement followed an editorial and cartoon in last week's AFRO-AMERICAN, which declared that Principal Hawkins should be asked to resign for his refusal to permit the high school to join in the health movement or the Federation of Parent-Teacher Cubs. Pupils of the high school themselves took a hand in the movement last Friday when scores of children took their copies of the AFRO to school and debated the question in the class rooms, corridors and school yard. Practical jokers saw to it that a copy of the editorial and cartoon was posted on the door of Principal Hawkins' office, where it remained the greater part of the day. Members of Public improvement committee shared frankly Pupil Hawkins was exceeding his authority when he refused to permit the Parent Teacher Club of his school to join the Federation of Clubs already organized by the elementary schools. "A frank discussion of this subject followed a visit of the executive committee of the Federation to the officers of the Public School Association in the Heart Building Monday. A delegation consisted of Mrs. Edward J. Wheatley, Mrs. Lillian Lottler, Mrs. Harry F. Brown, Mrs. Georgia Boston, Mrs. Julia Carr, and Mrs. John Young. "HI Too 'toney' Mrs. William Baumschmidt, at a meeting of the Federation Tuesday night, declared that the high school parents should not consider themselves too 'toney' to join in the general movement. Should they Demon, Says Walter Hurst. Bishop Hawkins's statement reads: "When a man in the position held by Mr. Hawkins has lost public confidence, his own self-respect, if he has any, should suggest to him the advisability of stopping down and out. "The dissatisfaction with Mr. Hawkins has led to city-wide forcible punishment. The complaint against him is that he does not cooperate in the measure he should in the efforts put forth in the moral and civic improvement of his race; that his is a colorless personality and that when the interest of his people is in the scale as against the scale of politicians that employ him, he goes headlong with the politicians and the general impression is that he is in the school system for Mason Hawkins and nobody else. Certainly a man with this sort of spirit is not what we need to freshen up the lives and character of our people." Pupils Plan Petition S. S. Hayfield, Secretary of the Y. M. C. A., said today: I want to add a word of commendation for the uncompromising stand you take on all projects of public interest, and also your stand in respect to the duties of men in public life. "Every public man, whether in the departments of the city government, or employed by social service agencies, or by special agencies, is nothing more than a bired man, and by no means an antagonist. It is common practice in proportion to his service to the people. Set duties are required and certain relationships must be maintained at all times." Pupils Plan Petition Dr. E. Mayfield Boyle, 425 N. Caroline street: "I have heard pupils plan a petition for a new principal of the high school. Any of the processes, if they would, could testify to the inefficiency of the present head. "Now is the psychological time for changes in the whole school system. We should have a real supervisor or assistant superintendent in charge of all colored schools and a colored member on the school board. I would hate to see anybody lose their jobs, but I am thinking more for the benefit of the school children." STOP!

FEDERATION THANKS SCHOOL BOARD FEDERATION THANKS SCHOOL BOARD Resolutions are Passed Commending Body For Promise to Build Project Number 10 VOCATIONAL NEED CITED Mrs. Baurenschmidt Urges Hi Parents To Join the Elementary School Body Resolutions were passed by the Parent-Teacher Federation at Echel Church, Tuesday night commending the School Board for its recent vote to go ahead with the half million dollar colored elementary school for children in the northwest section. Jonathan J. Voshell, who had charge of the publicity work of the school beans, several years ago, claimed that colour paid over $252,000 in interest taxes during the year in the city and were thereby entitled to good school buildings. No Trade Classes Charles W. Sylvester, director of vocational education in the public schools, said there were no industrial classes fitting pupils for trade and industry in the schools except for white males. He pointed out that only 3,000 of the city's 51,000 colored workers are skilled and that there is fire need of a colored vocational school. He asked for the appointment of a committee from the Federation to determine what trade should be done in the vocational school due to the vocational high school. Twenty-five thousand dollars is immediately available for vocational work in the schools, he said. **Cooperation Urged** Mrs. William Rauersmanni, secretary of the Public School Improvement Association, declared that Federation is on the same footing with their association and deserved the financial support and cooperation from the parent-teacher clubs in all the schools. The elementary school building at Fremont and King streets, she said, was condemned forty-two years ago when it was occupied by white children. It is still being used by th "You cannot get anywhere without organization." Mrs. Baurschmidt declared, "I call upon the parents of the high school, especially, to cooperate with the elementary school federation in its program. Poor of God!" she added. "I am aware with the high school people because they have not federated up to the present, but I do not believe that they might to think themselves too 'toney' to associate with us because their children are in a high school. I fear the fear of God into their hearts and realize that God requires of them a streewardship whether their children are in the high or elementary schools." Mrs. Baurschmidt also reported a conference with the Mayor in she asked him to appoint only such new members of the School Board to the colored children.

CHILD RAPIST GETS 6 YEARS Convicted by a jury of criminally assaulting his stepfather, Mary George, age 12, John Williams, 12 Church street, was sentenced to six years in the House of Correction by Judge Gorter Friday. The chief witness against Williams was his wife, who caused his arrest when her daughter, Bessie, of the relation that the former had maintained for several months, according to the testimony of Mary, who is an attractive and well developed girl, Williams several times assaulted her while her mother was away at work. It was not, however, until she visited relatives in New Jersey that her physical condition resulting from the abuses of Williams became known. The matter was brought to the attention of a child protective society and the girl sent back to her mother here in Baltimore. She then accused Williams.

APRIL 11 WHERE DID YOUR $1,000 GO? according to the United States Census every this country should be richer by about $10 or she was in 1912. The per capita wei- States increased during the last ten ye to $2918, or an increase of 72 per cent. In to consideration the fact that there was increase in the cost of commodities to off- there would still be left a net increase of 2 according to the figures the race should be 1000,000 if it shared and saved equally years. We cannot check this on the basis of every individual should see to it that during we SAVE, HAVE and HOLD an addition selves as well as every individual dependent one of the factors of progress that we c with a steady increase in wealth and popu- te to hold our own. TWO JUDICIAL APPOINTMENTS The appointment of Judge Carroll T. Bond, Supreme Bench of Baltimore City, to the of Appeals by Governor Ritchie will no court approval from every citizen familiar machinery in this State. Judge Bond is the type of man whose ability of absolute justice permeates the very atm- tion room in which he sits. Polished and ad degree he gave and received that co- d justice with such firmness that made always leave with a feeling that justice in the Supreme Bench of Baltimore City los- and the Appeals Court will be strengthen- appointment. Another appointment that heralds a new final Department of Justice is that of Harle- ner General of The United States. The Daugherty is perhaps the most progressive and attorney ever appointed to that position to labor, an advocate of free speech and a past economic questions. According to the United States Census every human being in this country should be richer by about $1000 in 1922 than he or she was in 1912. The per capita wealth of the United States increased during the last ten years from $1950 to $2918, or an increase of 72 per cent. Even if we take into consideration the fact that there was a 50 per cent increase in the cost of commodities to offset this increase, there would still be left a net increase of 22 per cent. According to the figures the race should be richer by $2,640,000,000 if it shared and saved equally with other Americans. We cannot check this on the basis of the group, but every individual should see to it that during the next ten years we SAVE, HAVE and HOLD an additional $1000 for ourselves as well as every individual dependent upon us. This is one of the factors of progress that we cannot neglect. With a steady increase in wealth and population we are sure to hold our own. TWO JUDICIAL APPOINTMENTS The appointment of Judge Carroll T. Bond, a member of the Supreme Bench of Baltimore City, to the Maryland Court of Appeals by Governor Ritchie will no doubt meet with hearty approval from every citizen familiar with the judicial machinery in this State. Judge Bond is the type of man whose ability and high sense of absolute justice permeates the very atmosphere of the court room in which he sits. Polished and refined to an unusual degree he gave and received that courtesy and dispensed justice with such firmness that made accused and accuser always leave with a feeling that justice is supreme. The Supreme Bench of Baltimore City loses a great jurist and the Appeals Court will be strengthened by this timely appointment. Another appointment that heralds a new era in the National Department of Justice is that of Harlen F. Stone as Attorney General of The United States. The successor of Mr. Daugherty is perhaps the most progressive and best equipped attorney ever appointed to that position. He is a friend to labor, an advocate of free speech and a progressive on most economic questions. THE WORLD IS BEFORE US characterizing the effort of the hoodlum atria University to frighten him away by stifling cross under his window as "silly" Frederick B. Wells typifies the growing men of the race to welcome struggle of success. "Don't see prejudice," said another young man decently, "I see the world before me." That makes red blooded men. Let the passhine and resolve, but the youth is fighted shell of the last war; the fusing of fighty races, and the growing consciousness of creating a new Negro race—a fighting, peaceful race. The world is still before us. Science still has wealth unlimited is yet buried beneath it yet unheard to be made audible; and of still to be sung. The way to get a shake take it. Nothing has ever been given away the sphere; nothing handed down on flowers through the conflicting forces of right and left will be won by the fighting youth—they that welcome the fight. That's the kind that the birth pains of injustice, prejudice brought forth. That's the new spirit of Characterizing the effort of the hoodlum element at Columbia University to frighten him away by burning a ku klux fiery cross under his window as "silly and ridiculous," Frederick B. Wells typifies the growing tendency of the young men of the race to welcome struggle as an element of success. "I don't see prejudice," said another young student in a debate decently, "I see the world before me." That's the stuff that makes red blooded men. Let the passing generation whine and resolve, but the youth is fighting. The shot and shell of the last war; the fusing of fighting bloods of many races, and the growing consciousness of youth itself is creating a new Negro race—a fighting, tenacious and hopeful race. The world is still before us. Science still has untold secrets; wealth unlimited is yet buried beneath the surface; voices yet unheard are to be made audible; songs undreamed of still to be sung. The way to get a share is to go out and take it. Nothing has ever been given away on this mundane sphere; nothing handed down on flowery beds ofose. Through the conflicting forces of right and wrong the conquest will be won by the fighting youth—they that faulter not, that welcome the fight. That's the kind of Negro youth that the birth pains of injustice, prejudice and sorrow have brought forth. That's the new spirit of conquest. THE LEGISLATURE ENDS the legislature which ended its session last in 1927 has been very kind to the race the lower house, the jim crow street or town and towns, the segregation bill for Baltic killed in the judiciary committee and newly.

Initiating $125,000 for a science hall at Masseed the house, but was killed in the Sen The legislature which ended its session last week to reconvene in 1927 has been very kind to the race. In the lower house, the jim crow street car bill for Maryland towns and the segregation bill for Baltimore City were killed in the judiciary committee and never reached the body. The measure authorizing the governor to appoint a commission of 21 of both races to study the welfare of the Negro in the State was passed. Morgan College appropriation was increased to $7,000, and Victory Hospital was increased to $2,000 by Governor Ritchie were also authorized. In addition both houses passed the bill appropriating $100,000 for a school for colored feeble minded children. This measure was later vetoed by the governor. The bill appropriating $125,000 for a science hall at Morgan College passed the house, but was killed in the Senate because it was thought to have the governor's opposition. The governor justifies his action on these measures by reference to his campaign promise to reduce the tax rate. In the face of bitter opposition, he also lopped off larger appropriations for the University of Maryland. Taken by and large, however, the work of the governor and legislature has been largely negative in character. They have killed measures designed to do us a good deal of harm. In the appointment of an interracial commission of high type men, and in making it possible for their recommendations to be put into effect, the way is open for the governor and the next legislature to make a positive contribution to the welfare of the State. THE EDITORIAL PAGE of THE AFRO-AMERICAN OLD TIMER SAYS PROF. 'AWKINS WON'T RESIGN The reporter met Old Timer at Bethel Church Tuesday night just before the Federated Parent-Teacher Clubs opened its roaring meeting on behalf of Project 10 and school subjects. ```markdown ``` "That was a hot editorial you had in the Press. Mason 'Awkins to resign or be kicked out as head of his university. The shorter quickly disclaimed any responsibility for the editorial, after which Ole Timer continued: "Let it go at that, but Mason 'Awkins still not going to resign, he is singing all day long. 'Pureer here my rest shall be." "Mason wants to run his university to suit his wife and he wants the Parents-Teacher Club to be separate from her." Mrs. Lafayette resigned as head. "Have you seen Bishop Brooks's the reporter asked. "I saw him on Callum street just before he returned to Campais Bishop Brooks in New York." replied Old Timer. "We chatted over old times. Me and my ole 'omman were out to hear the bishop preach his first sermon at Pathei saint night, and he heard him again at Armes' church Sunday night, and we're goin' to be present at Allen A. M. E. Church, this Sunday afternoon to listen his words of wisdom. When I saw Bishop I flung my arms round him and we just shouted. We lost our hats and the bishop flung his new wavy cove right round and flanked him round and laughed at us. They thunk we was fightin' I guess, I sure was glad to see 'im after runnin' half 'round the world lookin' for 'em. We do you go next?' asked the reporter. "Well," answered O. T., "me and Bishop Brooks and Bishop Hurst is goin to be hung out 'here till next week.' Our general conference out in the West." "What are you going to conference for, you are not a preacher?" inquired the reporter. "No, I don't," replied the things to do, "I don't want the old do-it-yourself guy to 'teet Revereen' Gaines a bishop, send him to Ariley in Brooks' place and then I is got to see whether Bishop Curley kin lick Bryant or Bryant kin lick Carey. You know Bryant called the Bishop to come off. I expect to be in the midst of the fireworks," wound up O. T., who went inside the church and picked out a front seat. The FORUM Would Rather Have Knowledge Than a Million Dollars To the Editor: Was it that the other day, what would I rather have, millions or be highly educated. Of course I would rather be highly educated. The men with a huge sum of money as the rule are more educated than the men with an education, because no one can take that away from you. With knowledge I would be worth more than a million to my brother, but better are we prepared to enjoy the beauty of the world. I will acknowledge a small capital is very good to start with, unless you start with something else. We will not appreciate what you have accomplished. What we need today more than anything else is men and women who are kind and purity the morals of our race. 11. WALLACE, 114 Henrietta St. Weftine Organizations Needed to fund and Charity to Understand There are thousands of young men and women of our group having been carried beyond their depths by the trend of present-day—are now crying in the wilderness of adversity, sorrow and past mistakes for help. We can pass these frailties of our race by without some encouragement*. And we are the Y. W. C. A. are doing work, but the range these institutions cover is not broad enough. Many men and women are beyond the pale of these institutions. The unfortunate woman of the street, who may desire to reform, would no more think of going to the Y. W. C. A. for help than I would, would not receive Why? Because she would receive no assistance, and be deeply humiliated in the bargain. If I wanted to put the steel in the heart of a young man that desired to receive Why? Because she would receive the Y. W. C. A. for assistance. Why? Because the milk of human kindness is not found there. They have neither the time nor inclination to waste upon an unfortunate woman with the prison brand upon him. There is no better way to prepare than by placing a strong arm behind you and giving him aid if you can. If not from a humane standpoint, for your own interest, while helping you are helping you are helping you JAMES WALLACE, N, Y Says Insurance Agents Should Not Be Invited Into the House. To the Editor: I see through your columns about another dastardly outrage and assault committed by another one of these brutal insurance agents. You should be a stop put to it, and we can easily do it by doing as I do not let one of them come any further than the front door, and if they do not like that, then it is up to them to stay away. What is the matter with our colored insurances? If more interest were taken in these words we would no longer crime committed by the bruits. This case should be pushed to the severest, and we are willing to supply funds to that effect. KEY RIVER, MISRIS. 640, Mugheri St., City. SAVE OT MISS. LIFE INS. GO. TO WHITE CONCERN HAMILTON PEAK FRED B. NATSON Professor Fudge Says: There seems to be a contest going on all over the country among China to see who can pick out the ten greatest Negroes who have lived or are still living in those cities but not on the right to pick out them but nobody has to accept them. I am not interested in many of the half baked persons suggested, but I am, in one particular, not mentioned by one of the pickers and choosers. **Booker T. Washington** Booker T. Washington, even on the testimony of his work, was the most important mind of the Negro race in his day. He was the Moses. It was this great Virginian who lead them out of the land of Egypt as an aid to the fight on the right to succeed. He was a practical man and first taught Negroes in these United States the most essential of all things, that is to say, "say it with He advocated the educating of the hands as well as the head and thru and because of his work many of the Sons of Ham learned to work in the fields. Washington also taught people in the black belt how to live like human beings. He was as much a stalker for soap and water as he was for clean moral living. He advertised clean living, soap and water, and the educational and the muses ate it up book, line and sinker, while it the asses "squawked" about everything and did nothing. The Hon. Booker T. point was well taken and he was honored at home and abroad in the North and in the South, in the East and in the West, the mihtiest of them all. Mrs. Terrell's Selections But what do I find when I pick up last week's Afro? I find that Mrs. Mary Church Terrell of Washington has wished me good luck and has endeavored to pick out the ten greatest Negroes America has produced. After scanning her list I have come to the conclusion she must have called on the Outlair Board to assist her in her selection. I have been told that a better luck in picking winners in horse races, she could lose-more money in a year than is involved in the Oval Scandal. I won't go in to detail as concerning some of the reasons why she was selected to be designated as great. I will only single out one gentleman mentioned and call attention to the fact that the little lady who makes a specialty of lecturing to such inconsequential people, Y. W. A., etc., tried to snub Booker T. Washington. Can you beat it? Booker Helned "Bol" But Mrs. Terrell is not satisfied with making herself ridiculous by omitting the name of the father of Tuskegee. She goes a step further, owning a dear husband, Judge Robert Terrell, a pretty judge of the District of Columbia, about equal to a Police Magistrate in Baltimore. He amply fellow, a gentleman and possibly a learned man, but if there is anything great about him, then Amos Scott, the Police Magistrate in Philadelphia, has been General of the United States and Judge Ranft of the Northwestern Police Station, should be on the Supreme Bench. He was elected to his job, Judge Ranft was appointed because of sterling worth. Judge Terrell received his by the grace of God and the tolerance of the National Receiving Policemen polished by President Roosevelt and Teddy and Booker being very thick, it is likely President Roosevelt gave Judge Robert his job at the surger Dr. DuBois Abroad Speaking of Mrs. Terrell's ten seas she did not give Dr. W. E. B. DaBois' chance until I read the April Crisis song or not me Dr. DuBois left the United States some five months ago to attend a race conference in Europe. While attending the same sofa was the hardest part of his job, he had been designated an Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenientiary to Liberia to attend the inauguration of President King, of Liberia, and to participate in a parted for the African Republic and did duly represent President Coolidge. This was all as it should be as the editor of the Crisis and the "big noise" in the race, slowing up the little republic by way of the Christopher Columbus discovered America and many other pioneers visited this country but it remained for American Vesputus to really possess the skills he would make people go to he here. Many American have visited Liberia, but none of them have delivered the goods when it comes to the war. Bois being a literary man as well as the editor of the Crisis, I expected he would come up with the facts in the case. But to the contrary he had everything else other than what the public wanted to know. The Doctor Falls Down **The Doctor's Aids** After Dr. Dubois I know several pages after Dr. Dubois I know this much. Liberia is situated in a hot climate. There are representatives there from England, France, Germany, Spain, Belgium, Holland, the United States and brown. They have some kind of an army which could afford a sergeant us an orderly for the Doctor. The President's house, has two novices visiting guest and visiting guest is so calm chairs carried on the shoulders of stalwart but this black men. That there is champ and ginamp and champ and ginamp, that the President's cabinet dresses in white when they are about to receive guest. After adding up the six or seven pieces this is all I get, yet Dr. Dubois says on juge 274. "The spell of Africa is upon juge 274. The ancient witchery of her medicine is burning my drowsy, dreamy blood. It may be in his blood, but really it is on paper. It seems to me he has wasted a lot of time not being able to give the public a comprehensive grasp of the territory he has when he traveled at their expense. It further appears to me, Dr. DuBois is trying to get into the class with Robert W. Chambers, the great writer of every day. He is falling for the garnishings. He would make a better scenario writer than he would make a reporter. He believes in the power of narrative is simply a smoke screen of rhetoric. While it is true he is getting older he should not be misled. The colored reading public is getting older. It is asking for talent. Dr. DuBois talks about the Sun, the Wind, the Moon, the Seas, the Folage, he is misleading few people, and if he fails to fall down to 10,000 circulation. Gin and Champagne However, there is a reason for everything. Probably Proof. DuBois and chomagne wrote in Africa, that it was unable to do either much thinking or observing. In which case, he did not think he could. But I do think he could have brought up a recipe home for making banana ice. In case he did not want to tell me, he did. could put an ad in his little pamphlet reading as follows: Send me two dollars and I will send you, postage prepaid, a receipt for make-up and a copy of the Bible. Absolutely pure, guaranteed not to make you sick. The rest will not do this we will get the prescription from Bishop Brooks and call it even.

The people who pay their own way will have their own say. Several years ago one of our denominations spent three quarters of a million dollars in carrying several thousand delegates to a convention in California. The big feature of the program was an offer of $5,000 by white brethren to establish a theological seminary. The race was actually spending three quarters of a million to secure a gift of $50,000. The Power of Song The St. George's Episcopal Church of New York City replets the nation with a celebration of the nation's metropolis. Harry T. Burleigh, the well-known Negro soloist and composer, was just completed his second soloist. On this occasion he was signally honored by the congregation which he had served so long and so accustomed to performing as a program was arranged consisting of Negro melodies as set by the composer himself. The best known institution melodies were included in the program. "Deep River," which is undoubtedly Mr. Burleigh's best known production, was rendered It is worthy of more than passing notice that the wealth and fashion of New York City should be the inspiration of syllabra Nego, who has throughout the years contributed to their spiritual uplift through the ministry of song. This melodious, lugubrious, appealing patrons of song is the genius of the group. Roland Hayes, the Nego sweet singing tenor from Tennessee, is moistening the eye and melting the heart of the world. This soul-melting melody springs from the heart of the Nego as the song from the throat of the bird. The full ministry of this musical endowment has not been fully realized and restless spirit of the world. We hear so much of the direful and distressing aspects of race retaliation, but we don't see it refreshing indeed to turn aside if but a moment to note how the charm of music has power to assuade and defuse the violence of race antagonism. In this troubled period of the world, when inter-national relationship, five are when internal conditions are characterized by strife and confusion the nations might well turn to Negro to calm the troubled soul. Pauperism of Soul A discipline of Gandhi, the Hindoo saint and statesman, addressed the student body of Howard University one day last week. Among the cardinal principles of Gandhi's social gospel is the admonition to his followers, not to be heggers. He informed his hearers that the great appetite of Indian autonomy raised the power of the powerful followers to finance his propaganda. This is equivalent to five million dollars contributed by a people whose earnings hardly ever exceeded Xegro audience was urged to initiate their Hindoo fellow sufferers in this particular, and to finance their own propaganda. Unlike the East Indian, the Negro audience was urged to support his own movements. He has relied so long on the philanthropy of the whites until his powers of self-help have been partially paralyzed. The Methodist and Baptist groups have supported his basis of self-support have flourished like the green bay tree; while the Presbyterian, Congregational and Episcopal denomination which have relied on white support are still struggling. The Negro is supporting his own churches in our cities quite as well the whites are supporting his own churches. An annual budget of ten thousand dollars is not unusual in a large city pastorate. Church structures posting upward of a hundred thousand dollars with in all parts of the country. The race has required the habit of ecclesiastic self-support. The church is undergoing a therapy. The cultivated people of the North have placed the race under a heavy debt of gratitude. But for this timely assistance our bodies have been found and maintained such vicarious aid. The great work of our Southland with Negro schools and colleges for the uplift and enlightenment of the masses. The future of the circumstances will have to be carried for some time on the basis of its altruistic foundation. But the time has come when the Negro awards its educational self-support. The Negro is unconsciously self-supporting in all public educational provisions. His share of public taxation is less than the schooling which he receives at public expense. The appropriations of legislatures for Negro high schools and State colleges do not include race to Negro education, but the Negro's contributions towards his own educational self support. Each Negro denomination operates schools based upon its own revenues. Even the so-called philanthropic schools and colleges are in larger and larger measure being brought up for whom they are intended. The race is now able to support essentially its own institutions, including the colleges and universities off from the great philanthropic foundations intended for all the people, regardless of race and color. But within the ordinary range of racial differences, well-to-do as the average white white who must work day by day for his daily bread. He receives equal pay in good houses and maintains about the same standard of life. This does not of course include the few more wealthy whites who are out conspicuously above their fellow Our Charities Suffer Why is it then that we still rely so largely upon the white race for vicarious support of our charitable serious attention has not been cultured to the necessity of internal self-support. We finance our churches and fraternal institutions and do it without looked to the white man to support our schools and colleges that we have grown to rely upon such continuance. It shows its greatest lack of self-understanding interest when it comes to financing its own civil rights movements. The N. A. A. have been fighting the coercions both against the race with great earnestness and promise of success. The support they receive is nigrarly beyond description when measured against the ability of the great task to which it is committed. Even at that a large part of its contributions come from he'venolently disposed white men and women who never why white people should contribute to the fund to secure the Negro citizenship rights, except as they may wish to show their good will by such contributions. The Negro is doubly able to dominate his own civil and political struggle. When he fails to do so he is not rather than ability. There is but a handful of Japanese in the United States, but when the rights of their group are at stake, they are a fund that are adequate to protect their interests in the fallen measure. This everlasting dependence on the white race is but the relief of the poor of this inhuman institution is not that it imbured the body, but that it enfeebled the soul. Fear not him that his power to destroy the soul of the race. The race needs a new soul one that asserts its own many self-expression and self direction. You cannot demand and beg at him. There are eleven million Negroes in the United States. Every one of which could contribute to the racial common weal without missing contribution. But the begging habit The National Baptist Convention several years ago called a convention to discuss the cost of traveling expenses of the several thousand delegates who usually attend this meeting was estimated at not less than three quarter of the cost of the feature of the program suggested for this gathering was an offer of fifty thousand dollars by the white Baptist Convention to establish a Theological seminary. The Negro race was actually planning to spend seven hundred thousand dollars on own money in order to secure a gift of fifty thousand from the whites. The difficulty lies in the lack of knowledge that makes the necessity of developing their own enterprises. A race of beggars is a race of cowards. The people may pay their own way will have to learn.

Winnie Winkle—it is wrong as well as silly to hold hands, because it cheapens a girl to kiss her, hold her hands and otherwise caress her or dirt with her. She sets such a low value in this way on her self she can hardly expect men to value and treat you as young woman may not expect to marry, she should, for the sake of her own self-respect and the ideal of womanhood she represents, places so high that she has to bestow as expressed in kisses and caresses that only one man shall ever be entitled to them, and that one the man whom she loves and wishes to be if he so admires and respects and loves her that he has asked her to be his wife. Should She Get a Job? Dean Annie Roney—I am a married woman living with my husband. We have two boys, aged 10 and 5 years. My husband has had two children, for over 40 years.

Then make a thick lather from the soap, apply this to the face and allow it to dry. After drying, the face should be thoroughly rinsed with lukewarm, then cold water.

POOR LI'L CAROLIN By Ben Goodlow That George Essex, model war hero, returned to his model home at an unexpected hour, found his model wife, Carolin' away, and saw her return with another man whom she dismissed at the curb. That she refused to explain. That George pounded her lips with his pile-driver fist. That he left her, spending a sleepless night with his friend, Harry Crane. That as the grey dawn began to steal in on the two troubled men, tears filled the eyes of George, and that, through his tears, he resolved not to go back—to desert Carolin—the broken model. Seeing that he was contrite and penitent I urged him to buck up his courage, call on her immediately, have a long talk with her and get to the bottom of it all. Had you known Carolina that he had been George to do. It did seem possible that she could practice deception of that nature. Then besides, she has no desire to desire the companionship of another man other than her. But the trust placed in them because they fancy the "other man" will provide them with a better living than the one to whom she belongs. They desert their fireside to escape what they term "cruel and inhuman treatment." In other cases they flee to pastures new home and husband in his ways. Still other cases reveal the fact that many and many of them disregard the vows because they are just empty-headed little fools and should not any sympathy when their time arrives for them to "repent in leisure." But none of the above cases applied to Carolin'. George did not throw away a single nickel of his salary. He put every dollar in the house. That which was not consumed by the money was thrown away in the bank. For just common ordinary folks they lived sumptuous. As for "euvet and inhuman treatment," a phrase that has never been clearly defined as yet, I am sure you can see. The sort that sort was practiced by George. He was one of the sort of men who umecably easy to the idea that the man is the one and, being of that type, he never interfered with her in any way. She had a bit more freedom and liberty than unwary men, and was an overlord—a taskmaster. He was her good provider and protector. He was magnanimous, tolerant, kindly, and humble, and harmless little fruits that seem glaring discrepencies to most men. No, on the score of "he had no harm" to the hardest case. This, of course, does not include the incidents following on the heels of her late arrival home. On that occasion George lost some of his friends, to that he had never so much as given her a harsh and reproving word. I am not saying this because he rather spotty sex on the smallest pretext; I am saying these things anent my friend because it is the truth. Prior to the break he had a very good friend—the kind of every woman wants. As for the other causes listed above, they need not be discussed. If Carolin' was a giddy-patted fool who had a real self, she had impressed me with her intelligence at our first meeting, and I had always regarded her as a woman possessing a great sense of grief matter. This made it seem the more complex. Braithy women do not desert good husbands. Yet Carolin' was playing the role of a wife of an exceptionally good man. George did not go home after we left the Star Night. I urged him to, hoping that there would be a reconciliation of some sort, but he did not. I sorry he struck her as he did, but his conviction was not potent enough to fully forgive her for being out at three in the morning with a stroke he could not climb. They say that when confidence once is lost it never returns. Perhaps that is so. At any rate it requires something a great deal stronger than human nature to forgive a herald. For a week I did not see George. Although I inquired at the Star Night daily, many times daily, I could not get a line on him, body knew where he kept, keeping him for several calls called up his residence several times, but he was not in evidence. His wife asserted that she had not seen him since the morning of the break. In a few days it became apparent that she had disappeared out of sight. But his friends thought little of the matter. Not one of them, with the exception of myself, knew that he and Carolin' had broken. [Picture of a woman in a dress with a hat.] CAROLIN (Goodlow famous Writers Guild, Chicago.) HAVE MISSED model war hero, returned to elected hour, found his model now her return with another at the curb. That she re- orge pounded her lips with left her, spending a sleep- Harry Crane. That as the on the two troubled men, urgge, and that, through his back—to desert Carolin— (the affair being carefully guarded for her sake), so they did not concern themselves on his failure to report regularly at the club. It was supposed that he was taking a much-needed vacation in his own peculiar way and did not resume his life in their midst. During his absence I formed the wild idea of calling on his wife for the purpose of getting her husband's whereabouts, but really to satisfy my curiosity as to how she was taking the matter out of the attachment George and I had returned against her. I was positive that the little domestic eruption would not affect her greatness, and the man for whom she had sacrificed her honor. But on the other hand, if she were ignorant, I was not sure how she would be injured. Not that I wanted to gaze upon her misery; do not judge man that harshly. But I am human, very, very human, and hisosity is essentially a human trait. She answered my ring in person, but when she opened the portable she did so grudgingly, as if she did not know where she'd come and did she invite me in. She stood in the doorway her hand on the inner knob, and stared at me almost malevolently. It made me feel that George had confided in me, bolstered up my courage, and lips were still a trifle puffed where his cruel knuckles had landed, and I also noticed that she looked years older than she had a few weeks prior to the moment of the anguish she had probably suffered in the past few days. But I did not convey the thought to her that the change was so obvious, the indication of the anguish she had probably suffered in the past few days. But I did not convey the thought to her that the change was so obvious, the indication of the anguish she had probably suffered in the past few days. When I mentioned George's name with business-like politeness I exclaimed, "What a region of heart to a strange, feverish glitter leaped to her eyes. It was such a light as one would expect to see in the eyes of a mother-receiving news of a long-lost son." "George?" she said, in a quater little murmuring voice. "No, George isn't here. isn't he at the club?"

It is not a great wonder that the medical activity is in Call VErnon 6017 I walked to the edge of the little porch, giving out the impression that I was leaving, but I stopped at the top step and looked quizzically up and down the street distance. All the time I knew she was looking at me. If you're a sensitive person you can almost feel eyes upon you as you feel the touch of a human hand. Because I knew she was still standing in the doorway staring at me, I did not want to leave. There was something so pathetic about her—something so helpless, and hopeless, and woebegone. Perhaps I was merely fancying it. We deal in fancy when we think of women. We deal in fancy and sentiment and that quality of mercy which forbids intolerance. She might be as guilty as the worst of slinners, but sometimes when we think of women we try to forget their glaring fallings, if they have them. Carroll's Essex was not happy. I did not know whether her obvious unhappiness had to do with George or with that other man, but I knew for a certainty she was unhappy. And because she was unhappy I felt an urgent desire to help her. Facing around with a final half-formed "good afternoon" on my lips, I saw that she was talking that she was watching me. She appeared confused when I caught her in the act, but I pretended that I had not noticed her. "You won't forget to mention to George that I called, will you?" I asked, knowing in my heart that she would not see him soon. Then her shoulders dropped and something like an expression of hopefulness crossed her still pretty face. "He is so happy," she said. "but in the city?" I am not a good actor, but I fancied I simulated amusement with sufficient energy. "No, he said, speaking slowly, he eyes moving restlessly meanwhile. "He is in Chicago. He Chicago, he will not simulate that time, did not know that he was in Chicago. "Yes," she said. Her voice was dull and lifeless. "He sent me a letter this morning. He won't be "No!" she said. Then she looked at me appearably. You cannot appreciate the thrill that nestles in your mind, but nothing they are focused upon by a woman whom you have every legitimate reason to hold in contempt. I felt that numbing thrill when she looked at me. I couldn't continue the thoughts in my brain. "You are his very good friend, are you not?" she asked. I nodded. "Then, she went on, 'you must know of our trouble,' and they. They trust one another. They extend sympathy. They hold together. Did he tell you anything of our trouble, or did he think of making my head. Somehow I did not want her to know that I knew. "But you are his friend," she insisted. "He used to talk about Harry Crane all the time. He loves you. Surely he would tell you." "Your ideas are mixed," I returned politely. But then he may not always include their domestic affairs. George has told me nothing. He did not even tell me that he was going to Chicago. Has there or been a misunderstanding? "But," I protested, determined to make her believe that I did not suspect her. "You must not judge George you hardly. I am sure he did. You needn't hold a brief for the man," she sighed. "I am the offender. As you are his friend, I will tell you about it. Won't you come in."

The staff of twirlers, including Sykes, Force, Brit, Mason, Carr and Strong is composed of the best material in the country, and each one has an entirely different style of delivery. Pullen, the big liliput fellow with the golden smile, whose kingdom is behind the bat, sees all and knows everything worth knowing about baseball. He simply gives the ball a push and it speeds like lightning to first, second, or third at his bidding with uncommon accuracy. It isn't likely a runner will try to steal on him a second time. Wilson A Real Show To see Wilson at first is to see two shows for the price of one. He is a far better laugh producer than the gentleman we paid $1 (plus tax) to see at one of the shows last week. He gets on going and coming, and with all of that he is considered one of the best first sackers in the business. Captain Dexter favorite position is that authority on the game told us he is one of the best shortesters in the United States, barring none. "Babe Faith" Faith; Wilson, left field; Johnson, center field, and Holloway, right field, make up an outfield that leaves nothing desired, and to see these boys tess 'see more from the back force is more important.' Black Sox shooter, blew in town Sunday night from Richmond, where he has been spending the winter. Lindsey's home is in Columbus, S.

Soedden is Tickled Charley Spohn, the Sox big boss, tickled. Practically every man in from the West has showed up to play. The other players, are due today. When they drive the whole Sox outfit as originally signed with the exception of blackman, third baseman, what is his name? He is trying to persuade his better half that Baltimore is not Dixie. Spohn avs he will ret Blackman into the field finally even if he has to make a special move. Powell anxious to Start Just as anxious as any of the Sox to start the season is Charley Cromwell, Sox umpire, Rhue Foster took such a liking to when he was there and baptized. "I am glad they have picked 'Tuck' Glisson as a side partner for me," Charles said yesterday. "Duck has a nice eye, and is born to make good in baseball in other sports."

It was one of the roughest games seen on the court this season, boxing and wrestling playing an important part. Morgan was only thru the supreme efforts of Miss Orffutt did her team make a creditable showing. The Celeritas were everywhere at the same time, not only did they battle their opponents, but had the spectators gasping for breath, waiting for the worst to happen. Some of the falls were hard enough to shake the floor, and the meers men to make a hasty exit for the street. The score was 15-8 for the Celeritas at the end of the first half. It is rumored that the Celeritas will challenge the Athensians at a later date. Anyway, they are anxious to meet the Orfeles for a championship game.

ATHENIANS BEAT THE VANDALS 42-33 Seasiders Outplayed In Every Department Except Foul Shooting By Locals He and Billy Baskerville Account For 31 Points Out of Total of 42 Ain't it orful, Mabel? Ain't it, The Vandals basketball team of Atlantic City, went down before the Atlantians Friday in the New Albent Auditorium by the score of 42 to 33. "We have been trying for the last five years to get the Vandals out of their home cage and down here for a game, and believe me, we revenge is sweet," declined in Witty scat- service table. Revenge for all the years of defeats was certainly sweet for the local boys, for they outplayed the big Atlantic City team in every department of the game except shooting of free throws. The entire seaside team was tied up in seven different kinds of knots and located the basket. The Alou, a former battalion captain and now a policewoman by the sea, the score would have been too one-sided to talk about. The game was fast, too fast for nearly a thousand spectators, who lost track of the ball in its rapid relays around the room. It was a little too fast for the Vandals too, who had just defeated the Alou. Washington the night it was 2-20, and would have left bad had a little more than their arduous exercises of chasing elusive Athenians around a big door store. Evidently the Vandals have not been used to playing on a large floor, and were not careful to keep their toes in bounds. They also were not up on the rule of holding the hand behind the back when any two players "jump off." Referee "Duck" Gibson had to pull out the rule book to prove that players may be penalized for talking back to the referee. "Duck" threatens to "car" one Vandal for profane language. All of these vehicles were stigmatized out in the first half and the score stood 18 to 7, the visitors came back in the second half and played an entirely different game, which threatened to upset the local done. "Google's" Poles was back in forward for the Greeks, and made a dandy team with Billy Baskerville. Between them they accounted for 31 points. Keller out jumped Sundes, but he is still off in his pegging for the basket. Woods who took his place in the second half could not jump with the tall seasider. Young took Ey Burke's place at the second half. The Morgan was offered a steel ear wrap in preventing the visitors from seeing. Alley, the cap, the playing glove, led his team in scoring, and talked back at the referee until the penalty above mentioned. If he can shoot prisoners into the station house like he raged baskets, he must be a holy terror to crooks. The visitors were within 9 points of the second half, but then Baskerville and Poles put on steam and the latter with his sensational dribbling and one hand freak shots, kept the locals out in front. Boss, of the Vandals when seen at his room Saturday in the Royal Palace, was not quite reworked to his defeat. No wonder, his team had benited the Locunds of Pittsburgh, who claim the national championship, 45-40. The team had won the Commonwealths of New York, and the Copper Guards, Resides, the Athletians lost to Locund when they played there cavier in the year. All this is water under the bridge, the main thing is that the Athletians with Poles in condition, in forward, presented apparently new team, and with Keller getting his eye on the basket and the whole team improving in foul shooting, could show a clean pair of heels to any point in the country. g f pletandis g f p Basket f g f 1 2 Knox f f 1 2 Poles f g 6 2 2 Knox f f 1 2 Keller, e 3 2 1 Sanders, e 2 2 Barris, g 0 2 1 Algy, g 7 2 Butler, g 1 0 0 Ringgold, g. 0 0 1 Young, g 1 0 0 Ringgold, g. 0 0 1 SCHOOL 110 BEATS E.

The ball was in play four minutes before a single basket was made when Freeman, of Omega, fouled Laurie, of Alpha, who bounced the ice, taking the ball, warmed the Alphas to their work and they began a shooting rally that ended them to hold the lead through the first period of play, which resulted in 11-6 for Alpha. Eddie Laurie and Wheatland were the outstanding players for Alpha while Lee and Freeman were the star cajers for the "champs." Suts, Omega; Blackman and Cart Referee; Husband, New York. LOENDI DROPS TWO Pittsburgh, Ia., April 8.—The world champion Celtic Five, who playing a series of games in this vicinity against the strongest of the local clubs, met Lorelli Thursday night at Labor Temple before a packed house, and ramped away on the long end of a 55-30 count, giving the local champions the second beating of the year. Chicago, April 10.—The Eighth Regiment Five defeated the Lorelli 29-22. The local team used a five man defense, their whole idea being to keep the Pittsburghers away from the basket. Lorelli is scheduled to meet the Athenians in Baltimore April 21. Armstrong Is Champ Washington, D. C., April 10.

Congressman Welsh, from the Keystone State and other provinces, will be the Executive of the Nation to the game and attendant features. (Whlp News Service) (WHIP NEWS NEWS) Mike Sullivan had fought many battles including his first one with Joe Gans but surely no fight he ever engaged in was so fatal to him as the one with Joe Gans on his second appearance. It was the old Gans whom the people knew who entered the ring that night. He fought a wonderful battle and great credit should be awarded Mike for not getting sleepy long enough to reach the bounds were even, and in the third the Baltimore was bothered by Mike's long reach and height, but when "Sully" fried for the head Gans crossed him to the same spot. At the close Gans ducked under a right and lauded heavily on the jaw. Joe had a clear lead in the fourth and his superior science was evident. A heavy blow to the chin near the end of the round nearly put Mike on the boards and WORKINGMEN!

The "Twin" was still alive in the fifth, much to the surprise of the majority. He kept pegging away, but Gan's defense was perfect. He showed Mike some wrinkles of the fighting game in the sixth. He drew "Twin" out and placed a right to Gan. A moment Joo forced him to the ropes with hearty rights and left to the face. A poke in the rius made him more uncomfortable and forced him to clinch. Sullivan almost went down at the beginning of the eighth. Gans began by blocking and ducking, Mike being unable to do anything against his wonderful defense. Suddenly, Gans reached the with right to "Twin" "Twin" fell in clinched. Gans caught him with a hard right-hander and "Sully" dropped to his knees. The bell saved him. Gameness saved him in the ninth, and in the tenth he did much better work almost holding his own. Joe took the honors in the eleventh, but got careless in the twelfth and allowed Mike to land once in a while, which he did with a will. WORLD'S BEST JUMPERS ALL COLORED Ann Arbor, Michigan—De- Hart Hubbard plans to hang up the new brook jump record this year. Last season, his first with the Wolverines, Hubbard came within an inch and a half of equalling the record of 25 feet 5 inches made by Ned Gourdin of Harvard, a few seasons ago. Inability to hit the take-off properly is Hubbard's chief fault. If he can overcome it, he can train to put over a new record for this event. On one occasion Hubbard was credited with leaping some 25 feet 5½ inches, only to have the jump disallowed because he overstepped the leaping board, only to be the greatest bride of jumpers. American colleges have seen in recent years have all been colored boys. Besides Hubbard, they were Gourdin and Sol Butler. In competition, Hubbard has beaten both the other two. Obviously, Hubbard was the greatest Olympic bet in the broad jump. He should be heard from in a record-breaking way, too. Opening Special STORE CLOSES 6 P.M. SATURDAY 9 P.M.
