Petersburg, Virginia, Bank Fails To Amount Of $76,000 HID CHILD TWO YEARS PEOPLE'S BANK CLOSES DOORS IN PETERSBURG Three Year Old Institution Fails Owing Depositors Over $76,000 Announcement Tells Of Mismanagement of Bank Officials. Petersburg, Va., April 16.—The People's Bank closed its doors Thursday by the order of M. E. Bristow, chief bank examiner for Virginia, and was taken over by him due to "mismanagement," according to an official statement given out for publication today. Robert Gilliam, Jr., local attorney, has been appointed receiver by Petersburg Hustings court following an application by Mr. Bristow for a receiver for the bank. Mr. Bristow and Mr. Gilliam declined to state even approximately the loss which might result from the activities of the bank, and those days being closed, "We cannot tell yet, and will not be able to make any statement until the audit of the books is completed," said Mr. Bristow. Charles W. Sutherland, certified public accountant, has been engaged by Mr. Gilliam to conduct an audit of the books of the bank. No Date Set for Reopening No date has been set for the opening of the bank to pay accounts, if it cannot be completed when it will be completed. Mr. Bristow declined to estimate the approximate loss to depositors, or whether there will be any such loss. "This can be determined only after it is audited, and after it is found whether or not the state holders, who are liable, have sufficient financial assets to be paid, or may be found," said Mr. Bristow. Others and members of the board of directors of the bank met with Mr. Bristow and E. A. Leake, who is associated with him. It is understood that directors would raise $1 million every year to keep the bank in operation. It is said that Mr. Bristow declined this offer and said that an audit of the bank would be necessary first and that this had to be done behind closed doors. Mr. Bristow stated this morning that he would gladly grant the bank permission if a step was thought to be feasible by the court, in whose hands the matter now rests. Opening of the bank would involve the making good of whatever shortage may be found to exist and the gaining of the approval of the court. Assurance that there would be no run on the institution by depositors was essential. The People's Bank of Petersburg, was organized here three years ago. According to Mr. Bristow, we are in the process of raising $7,000 is held on deposit. The capital of the bank is $25,000.

They will also volunteer to hold the right-of-line in all demonstrations and parades of the Massachusetts visitors. The Coolidge Republican Club of Massachusetts is not an organization of recent sporadic growth, conceived in the heyday of success of the President, with the obvious purpose of promoting the self-aggrandizement from the reflected glory of Mr. Coolidge's ascendancy. The club was organized in the dark hours of the President when he, then Governor of the Commonwealth, in September, 1919, made his sturdy appeal for "law and Or- SECRETARY AND PASTOR FREED Knoxville, Tenn., April 17.—With a blackened eye and face bruised as the result of rough handling by a mob of members of his church, Rev. D. E. Thompson, pastor of the Clinton Chapel A. M. E. Zion Church, was declared not guilty of a serious charge this week.

The climax was reached on Saturday when Mrs. Naidu addressed an audience of eight to nine thousand, midly Muslims, with a few Hindus and Sikhs. Mrs. Naidu received a vociferous ovation from her hearses, some of whom were wearing Chandhi caps, with a few others wearing Chandhi. Mrs. Naidu, who delivered the greater part of her speech in Urdu, said she felt it her duty to address the meeting in English first, so that she might appear directly to the public and Government, whose tyrannical policy it was to oppress, her fellow-counsel.

Inspired by the book of Calvin Coolidge and of colored men, by Dr. Benjamin E. Robinson, taking as their slogan his ringing phrase, "Law and Order," brought into existence the first organization founded in the United States named in honor of the man who is not President. He was also accorded the credit of having rallied to him before his white compatriots had come to visionize the true measures of his greatness. Calvin Coolidge has not destroyed the trust which these men imposed in him.

The Coolidge Club today occupies the unique position of being the only purely professional in Massachusetts occupying headquarters standing in its own name. Believing the advancement of Calvin Coolidge and the Republican party to be of paramount importance, and that the attainment of these ends far surpassed the mere building of the colored voters into a body having an entity, separate and distinct from a united Republican party, membership in the club was thrown open to every Republican who ever or sex.

"The "Cape Times" today has a strong "leader" on the speeches of Mrs. Naidu, the Indian poetess, who has lately been vehemently voicing the grievances of Indians in South Africa, especially in the Class Aaries Bill." She is playing with fire, says the "Cape Times," "and using the language of reckless incendiarism. If she is to be allowed by the Union Government to continue her mission of stirring up trouble, she should, at least, be given a stern warning that any further attempts to create trouble between white and black in South Africa will entail her immediate removal from the country." "Cape Times" asks whether the time at hand when South Africa will be compelled to rid herself of this thorn by forcing all Indians not born in Africa to return home. SIX NOMINATED AT PRIMARIES IN ILLINOIS Four Republicans Named for Legislature and One for State Senate TAYLOR LOSES TO MADDEN But Albert George Is Nominated for Judge of Municipal Court Chicago, April 10.—(A. N. P.)—The Black Belt voting in the Republican primary last week nominated four men for legislature, one for State Senator, and one for municipal judge. Illinois now has a race member of the state senate in the person of Adelbert H. Roberts, for several years a member of the state legislature. He was unopposed for the nomination. His nomination assures his election. He is a Georgia, race attorney was nominated for Judge of the Municipal court, a position which under the new budget pays $12,000 a year. He will be elected in November if white republicans do not knit him. Negro members of the state legislature nominated at the time were Warren K. A. Former governor Dick Turner and Geo. Kensey, present inhuments, and Charles Girtin, a newcomer. Candidate for Congress Loses The only race candidate to loss was Nathan S. Taylor, who ran against Martin B. Madison, white for congress. He polled 6,000 votes to Madison 10,000. It is the concensus of opinion that Taylor lost his own battle aided and bletted by incompetent campaign managers. Two weeks prior to the primary election day the Taylor host were legion. It was expected that friends of the president congressman on the court begin to be heard on Taylor's fitness for the office on his most vulnerable point. More and more persons began to desire their desire for a Negro in congress but to question the ability of Taylor who handled figures and history in his campaign speeches in an amazing fashion. Lynch Pastor Causes Arrest He is credited with killing himself when during the last days of the campaign he had published a fake picture purported to be a mass meeting in his honor. The crowd was actually that which attended a Yale fashion show. Teenagers manager appear to have doctored it up. Later he put on the streets a huge van bearing the life size and lifelike figures of Negroes being lynched and burned. This van was driven around the poorer sections of the police and Taylor was arrested. Of course voters learned of this. It was necessary on primary day to convince the people that the candidate was out of jail. They did not mind voting for Madden who was in Washington but they were not going to vote. Nevertheless, to have hooked both the regular organizations and polled 6000 votes was no inconsequential feat.

MEETINGS KEPT 'TILL DAWN So Wife of Bethel Church Steward and Trustee Asks For Divorce Chicago, April 14.—(Whip News Service)—A mixture of church board meetings in the wee hours an alleged illicit love, taxicab rides, and gifts of jewelry were hired before Judge Joseph Sahab when Mrs. Mary Murray, 3621 Wabash avenue, declared it was beyond her belief that her husband, Nathaniel Murray, steward, trustee, and treasurer of Greater Bethel A. M. E. Church, was detained at meetings of the trustee board almost every night until 3 a. m., and many mornings until 5 or 6. Claims Desertion Murray, who is well known and supposed to be wealthy, operates a hardware and crockery store at 3151 State street. Murray brought suit for divorce against his wife, claiming that she deserved him on March 4. Through attorneys, Elliss and Westbrooks, Mrs. Murray answered that she still occupies their home at 3621 Wabash avenue, as she has for the past several years. In her cross bill Mrs. Murray charges her husband with infidelity and Caulfield and Matte Bell as two who have exercised "quite an influence" over her husband. Out Late In her answer, Mrs. Murray declares that her husband remained away from home until 3 o'clock every morning, stating that the board meetings at Bethel had detained him. On other mornings he remained away from home until 5 or 6 o'clock, and stated that "special meetings" detained him, she declares. When Mrs. Murray brought her husband's activities to the attention of the Court of Domestic Relations, his attorneys informed the court that he had already filed a bill for divorce against his wife. She declared that although he could afford to ride to and from the "board meetings" in two weeks, that he had already married life, he had bought her only one coat and two pairs of shoes. She further charged that although her husband had subscribed $100 as a donation toward the church, he had failed to contribute anything for groceries and house rent. She claims that her husband and his brothers have conspired to defeat her of her rights in the business which is conducted by Murray at the State Street address. Mrs. Murray produced a receipt, showing that Murray had spent $45 or $40 each month, but claims that he did not give it to her, neither did she ever see him wearing it. Her presumption is that he gave it to some other woman. The suit is to be tried before Judge Joseph Sabath. G.O.P. Woman Named Washington, D. C., April 15. John T.

Caroline street, was held without bail at the Northeastern Police Station Tuesday. The girl, Mary Conner, told the story of the unnatural relation with her father at the hearing for the first time when the case was brought to court by complaints of neighbors. Shrinking constantly like a hunted animal and giving the appearance of arrested mental growth, she recited incidents of the strange and brutal life she had lived in the black room over a stable down near the end of Caroline street with the man she called father. Tells Strango Story Testimony brought out at the hearing showed that Conner brought the little girl here from Washington two years ago. They lived in a little hovel of two rooms inaccessible except through a back entrance over an old delapidated stable building at 203 N. Caroline St. According to her testimony practically all her existence during all her years was in one of these dark rooms, where shut out most of the time from the light she has lost her sight. For lack of words she could scarcely express herself, so completely had she been cut off from the world. Answered Whistle Call Telling further of the strange life lived there with her father, Mary stated that Connor used a whistle to call her when for any reason he wanted her to come to the adjoining room in which he slept. As far as she could remember he had called her five times during the last week. It was at this time that Connor called the criminally abused her, and she had been subjected to this abuse for the two years she had lived there. Connor denied improper treatment of the child. He is about 35 years of age, and is employed as a laborer around the docks. When his employer, who came to the trial to intercede in his behalf, heard the story of the little girl he left the court room in disgust; he told the witness at the Home of The Fool Shepherds to appear against her father when the trial comes up in Criminal Court.

He promises some interesting news for the patrons. Mrs. Lillian Thompson, the direcress and organist at the Regent, always makes an effort to have the selections played synchronize with the picture programme. With Mrs. Harris, the violinist, Hillary and his treasury, the violist is a thing of the heart, and a joy to its hearers. This orchestra, the 3 "Spades," Reggie Hamer's "Blue Room Orchestra," "The Dixon's Band," and the other allied musical associations, are a credit to the city. Some years ago he heard an instrument he couldn't say say say could not get a colored orchestra to play his music.

Four hundred ex-cowboys and rodeo riders were engaged to play the Arabian roles. Naturally, among that number of cowboys, taken from all walks of life, there arose some dissension. In fact the dissension, to put it mildly, grew so pronounced that Oxnard and he for eighteen hours work was suspended. It was almost decided to disband the hordes and send them back to Los Angeles. The quarrels arose among the cowboys during the horseback fighting. The boys put so much spirit into these scenes that all bulls turned into free-for-all royals. In fact the general motors being disbanded that it be difficult to control the filming of the photoshoot. However, Director Franklin finely brought order out of chaos and after some difficulty got his company back on the train for Los Angeles. "The Song of Love" is a Joseph M. Schenck production, starring Norma Talmadge. It was directed by Chester Franklin for First Nassau Joseph Schenck production, starring two conditional release. Heading the cast is nents and the most sought-after leading man of the screen.

WILLIAM HOLL ORIGINAL BULGARIAN TEA MARVEL HERB TEA COMPOUND MADE IN THE U.S.A. STATES MARVEL PRODUCT CO., L. P. PITTSBURGH, PA, U.S.A. I am near 60 years, but I feel as young as I did at 30.

You are going to like this Bulgarian Tea. Everyone who tries it tells how much good it does right from the start. It just puts new life in me when I feel run down, tired or weak. You know you can't have power, vigor or energy when your blood is weak. You must get rid of the body poisons to have good health.

Call VErnon 6016 REGENT the Roscoe-Mitchell Company, reinforced by the "Maryland Five," a male singing quintette, is playing a dork at this house. a ballet. It may have been the general ballet and quiet of spring that slowed up the action of the vaudeville Monday afternoon, but whatever the cause the piece as a whole only evoked lukewarm enthusiasm. Among the highlights are Eileen May Moore, in two stunning gigs, sang two numbers that necessitated several bows, and two songs, Mrs. Emma Mitchell and Will Green Johnson received occasions whenever they appeared, and got merited hands for their numbers. The "Maryland Five," Luther Toy, 1st tenor; Andrew Johnson, 2nd tenor; Clarence Dennis, baritone; Oscar Wainwright, median, rounded home a winner, well-blender, firmly singing, these fellows, local products, seem to be on their way to a career, the act is nicely dressed and they are acquiring a professional stage presence. Aside from features mentioned the piece does not deviate from the usual "tab" production, with the exception of its freedom from vulgarity and the tastefulness of the wardrobe. 'ENEMIES OF WOMEN' AT DUNBAR 'ENEMIES OF WOMEN' AT DUNBAR Vincent Ihanez, the author of "Enemies of Women," coming to the Dunbar Theatre on Tuesday, April 22nd, and Wednesday, 23rd, is also the author of the "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse," and "Blood and Sand." He also about the same intensity is said to surprise in dramatic intensity and action either of the former. Against a magnificent background of Europe's gilded society life—in the midst of revels and revolutions—is staged the great romance of a pleasure-loving Prince of Russia and the most famous beauty of the entire Continent. The origins of the Russian courtesans' tragedies of the gaming tables of Monte Carlo, the hitherto hidden photographic records of the battle fields are pictured here in absorbing detail. The production cost was more than a million. WONDERLAND PARK From the published list of bookings for "Wonderland Park," we gather that the genial manager Infus Bryars has been insulting. The park is being run by a former A. Jack Thomas' Band of 15 rendering a selected programme. Mr. and Mrs. Customer, if you're fed up on "tab" shows with their endless repetitions and the monotony, go to the Lincoln and take a little crisp gland treatment will drive away the amusement blues. Brown and Singleton, a novelty act in the ace spot, began the proceedings. The male member, in Chinese make-up, performs on musical bottles and rattles bones in a manner that would have done honor to Billy Kersands. He provides some thrill stuff with the exhibition of a huge snake. The act is less pretentious than, but agreeably reminiscent of the one Princess Satanka used to do. William Sellmon (Yonder) clicked with a monologue in the "deucer."

BY HIS FATHER, MOTHER, SISTERS AND BROTHER. RICHARD ALBERT GROSS Richard Albert Gross, a prominent member of the Church, several fraternal organizations, died Sunday, April 8th, 1923. Mr. Gross was well loved by all who knew him because of his broadheartedness, and lovable disposition. A large number of friends attained his widow, Mrs. Burt B., Gross, five children, two sisters and one brother. Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep. From which none ever wake to weep; A calm and undisturbed repose, Unbroken by the last of foes, the family that cherished their many friends for their kind words of sympathy and beautiful floral designs at his death.

We think of her smile in spite of her pain, It radiated sunshine when all seemed as rainy: She thought just of others, herself least of all, Her real spirit taught us how to face life's last call. Oft we wander to the graveyard, Flowers to strew with tender care; On the grave of our dear mother, Who is gently resting there. Sleep on dear mother and take your rest, God called you home, he thought it best; He saw your suffering here was great And loved wide the golden gate. BY HER HUSBAND AND CHILDREN. BIA—In loving remembrance of our dear mother, Sarah Anna, who departed this life, April 20, 1921.

BY HER LOVING SON AND DAUGHTERS. BROWN—Sacred to the memory of my brother, Ellsworth Hamilton, who died in New York City, April 6, 1924. It is not death to die.

HENDERSON—In loving remembrance of our dear father, Jacob A. who departed this life April 20, 1923. "Fond memories of you, dear father will ever be ours." BY HIS CHILDREN, GLADYS AND WM. HENDERSON. PAYNE—In sad and loving remembrance of my dear grandmother, Louise, who departed this life one year ago, April 19, 1923. We are in silence. No eye can see us weep; But many silent tears we shed. When others are asleep. The one we loved from our home has gone. A yes, we loved is still; A place is vacant in our home. Which never can be filled. From our chain this link has fallen. In the east the star has set; But engraved memory's tablet. BY IER GRAND-DAUGHTER, SADONA BYAN. SLAUGHTER—In sad but loving remembrance of my dear mother, Emely Shiloh who departed this life 3 years ago, April 1, 2013. Although you could not speak to us, Nor could not say good-bye; But we know your thoughts were with us. When you were called to die. You know how the sorrows to be left above. Until God sends a messenger to your home: it is hard when He calls for one or the other. But hardest of all when he calls for dear mother. BY HER DAUGHTER, ESTELLA COLVIN AND FRIEND, MILTON HOWARD. WATERS—In loving remembrance of our dear daughter and sister, Ida Virginia Waters, who departed this life two months ago, February 14, 1924. When we gather in the home and no Ida there, And the loved ones there we meet; Our hearts are heavy and bowed down. No dear daughter and sister to greet us. Nothing but her vacant chair. So the family circle was broken. And my heart was broken too. Bryan loved her daughter. When my earthly work is through. BY HER LOVING FATHER, MOTHER AND BROTHERS. WATERS—In sad but loving remembrance of my dear father, George H. Waters, who departed this life one year ago, April 18, 1923.

BY HIS LOVING DRAUGHTER, MRS. BEATRICE JACKSON. WILLIAMS—In sad but loving memory of my dear husband, Robert Williams, who fell asleep in Jesus April 20, 1923, one year ago. I entrust him to Thee, sweet Angel of God. Guard well 'round his dear sacred clay; Till the trumpet shall sound, and he leaves this abode. To dwell in the Mansion of Day, HIS WIFE, PAULINE J. WILLIAMS. LEE—In sad but loving remembrance of my dear friend, Hattie L. Lee, who departed this life, one year ago, April 17, 1923.

GETS SENTENCE FOR MURDER Ernest King Sentenced To 2 Years In 'Pen' For Slaying Man In His Home STAR WITNESS ABSENT Sweetheart of Dead Man Lies Mentally Deranged By Shock While Miss Mabel Robinson, sweetheart of Winfield Boardley, by mentally deranged from shock caused by his death, Ernest King, confessed slayer of the man, went on trial and was sentenced to two years in the penitentiary by Judge Frank in Criminal Court Tuesday. A plea of manslaughter by King was accepted by the State when Miss Robinson, the star witness against not appear according to physicians condition of her mental condition. Boardley, who lived at 1014 Shields Alley, was killed when he entered the King home, where he had been told the Robinson girl had gone after their quarrel and separation. According to the testimony, the trouble began when Boardley was caught in a acid maze. Neighbors helped officers when he was locked up for a day. Miss Robinson, who had formerly lived with him, went to the apartment and moved the furniture away. When Boardley was released, he learned that Miss Robinson had gone to the King home and went there to see her, only to be refused admit- Boardley left, but on the night of the tragedy, he came back to the house shortly after midnight and giving the name of Bennett, one of the girls in the place opened the door. He entered only to face Ernest King, who, according to the testimony of Miss Margaret Brown, who was in the room at the time, drew a revolver and fired once. The shot was fatal, the bullet passing through the body of Boardley and burying it in the Southwestern Police District where he surrendered to an officer whom he knew personally. "Black Amie" in Case Miss Sarah Stepney, known in the underworld haunts as "Black Amie" and at present the alleged sweetheart of King, gave some starting testimony when she asserted on the witness stand that police officers "framed her and caused her to be killed" and that interest in King, she was charged with attempting to obstruct justice by intimidating witnesses. Although there were several witnesses who might have testified against King, according to members of the States Attorney's Office, they either mysteriously disappeared or disappeared in sight. Singed out Sergeant Moore of the Northwestern District, and claimed that he and other officers had bounded her for months and declared on the stand that they never had and never would "catch her dead to rights in anything." Claimed Self Defense Taking the stand in his own defense, King claimed that he shot Robinson, but he then produced a knife and start towards him. He stated that he had given Miss Robinson a place to stay because she feared Bedford would harm her, and that he had told him he could not enter his home. Miss Margaret Brown, 579 Walm Alley, eye witness to the shooting, however, firmly stated that Bedford had no knife but that King shot immediately after he entered the door.

Pay is said to be from $20 to $20 a month more in D. C. schools. During the two days absence substitutes filled their places here Doughlass Hi School has lost many of its best teachers to Washington already, including G. David Houston, Dwight Holmes, Jr. Thomas Turner, Miss Larry Lea, and teachers who pass exams and get a place on the eligible list are automatically appointed as soon as a vacancy. Those said to have taken the examination from Doughlass Hi include: Miss Trieg, Miss Louise Cook, Miss Else Taylor, Frank Parking, Joseph Hill, Miss Miller, Miss Dendra Morvack, Miss Gladys Moran, D. S. Dissatisfaction with local conditions is given as the reason why teachers are anxious to leave Baltimore for Washington, although several of the teachers at Doughlass are residents of D.C., and graduates of schools there. Alumni of Doughlass High School view this virtual migration of teachers from the city to the state of disproportion of the administration of Principal Mason Hawkins. There must be something wrong with the school, they say, when so many teachers express a desire to leave. Vice-Principal Carrington L.

It is going fast to make "Real Joy" with Hot Cakes and Hot Biscuits for those who know its quality. Persons from Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and Alabama especially, prefer it over all other syrups; and can tell you about the "goodness" of Real ALAGA Cane Syrup. Then too for fancy baking and candy making it has no equal. ALAGA Cane Syrup is the entire juice of the Sugar Cane plant boiled down to syrup, with nothing added, except a very small portion of corn syrup to prevent sugaring in the can. The quality is therefore near that of maple syrup at only half the price, but with a very different flavor.

FRIDAY, APRIDb 18 meses FRIDAY, APRID IB | Pay TRAINED PREACHERS. | According to figures gathered by Howard University School of Religion, there are 4,800,000 communicants in the Christian churches of colored America. With a drop _ip illiteracy from 70 to 22.9 per cent during the last forty years and the constantly rising standards of these com- vuinicants, the problem of supplying capable and intelligent yeligious leadership is becoming acute. It is estimated that the race needs 1,600 trained ministers yearly, and that these ministers should be carefully selected from the flower of Negro youth. With the most brilliant of our youth sidestepping the ministry for better-paying professions, the church is in danger of losing its hold on the growing intel- ligence that calls for dgeper religious food and leadership. Something must be done, and Howard University is in a campaign to increase its facilities to meet the demand ‘of educated colored men for the pulpits. On the other end of the problem, churches must be induced to pay suffi- cient salaries and give such other support as will induce the best in Negro youth to enter the ministry. Where the congregation is small, the.denomination must come to its nid and help pay the pastor's salary. ————— | SENATE’S IMMIGRATION FOLLY | Some restriction is needed upon the number and char- acter of immigrants coming to this country every year if we are to raise our economic standards of living and demo- critic principles, but Uncle Sam is sowing seeds of danger right. now. In the Senate hill proposing to exclude the Japanese and other groups solely on the ground of race and the sup- posed superiority of the so called “Nordic Blonds,” it ap- pears is if the aged fathers are going crazy. They do not sea themselves driving the world towards an inevitable ra- cial clash more bloody and more barbarous than anything we have ever seen. If in that hour of fate, the Negroid groups in the world ave found on the side of the yellow races it will be because they are driven there. Already Japan has sounded an omi- nous warning that the proposed law will bring “grave con- sequences.” ‘And while the Negro race in this country will in many ways enjoy the benefits of a restricted immigration, and ats a policy must favor restriction, we must not lend our in- Muence to any measure based on purely racial diserimina- tion, Restrict immigration, but do it in the spirit of jus- tice to all groups in the world. \ SCHOOL BOARD ACTS WISELY | ‘The Baltimore School Board cannot be too highly commended for its recent change of policy and reversing itself as to Project No. 10, which insures the colored people a new elementary school. We commend especially to the Board the view of Mrs. Benjamin Cochran, white, who stated to them this: “In as much as the colored people have no representative on the Board, and their schools are in our hands, if there is any shortage of funds, it would be more to our credit, if we skimped on our own white schools rather than on theirs.” The Parent-Teacher Federation also deserves much credit, not only for the effectiveness of its fight for this project, but for the dignified! and efficient manner in which it was conducted. If every parent will support these wo- men led by Mrs. Laura Wheatley and others, we are on the way to making the Baltimore Public School system one of the best in the country. The fight to give boys and girls here the best of edu- cational advantages, however, must not be abandoned until every school is properly equipped and efficiently admin- istered. EFFICIENCY EXPERTS WANTED | Recent upheavals in the colored business world and a study of many of the newly formed projects emphasize the fact’ that the younger generation of well trained business experts, those trained specifically for business careers, are aot being sufficiently absorhed into business life. é When you look’ at the directorate of most of the big nusiness concerns of the race you eannot but be appalled Ht the fact that most of them are not business men at all, but men who have made their marks in the professions and other lines of endeavor. They are most apt to be ministers whose names carry weight in the community or profes- aon men selected because they were successful in their ines. Colored business had to start this way, and we should never forget these pioneering men and women who blazed the trail. If modern business among colored people is to succeed, it must adopt the same modern policies and methods used by all business concerns in this country with which it must compete. : ; Another defect of business endeavor is to have it com- pletely dominated by any man who is not broad enough to distribute its work properly among others well trained in details. The successful big man is the one able to gather around him able lieutenants and here is where the host of young men and women coming from our schools with spe- cific business training should be utilized. Successful busi- ness ventures must pass through the lives of several genera- tions and many failures would be prevented by taking into the concerns able and well trained men who could take up the work where the veterans leave off.

I love my husband and he says he loves me, but he will not work to support me, or will not let me work because I wooled and think I should in love with some one else. What shall I do? UNHAPPY. A. J. Your husband is certainly taking a strange way of showing his love, when he does not work to support you. How does he think you are going to live, unless he works or you work? How does he talk with the shoulder talk with him and tell him exactly how you feel. And if he still refuses to work, explain that you must, in order to live, and then go to work. It would probably work on him to a sense of his responsibility. He cares as much for you as he says. A "Winter-and Spring" Friendship Dear Amie Roney—I am a girl in my 'teens.

The first thing to do is to make your visitor comfortable. To do this you yourself must feel at ease and not be harassed by your desire to entertain. Try to draw the young men in and find out in what he is interested. Perhaps you both like tennis or some other sport. Ask him to tell you about his work, his ambitions and his aims. Tell him all about yours, and he will be hostess and he is your guest and will be having a friendly chat.

That he had able situation.

A woman turned home four hours after midnight with the stranger, and ended with the declaration that he was in Chicago for the purpose of allowing her the opportunity to file settlements on the grounds of desertion. "And," she added, "he says that he will not come back until after the divorce is applied for." "And are you going to apply for a divorce, asked. No." She said. We talked a little while longer and I was on the edge of departing, when suddenly she burst into a fit of uncontrollable weeping. She say that a woman's tears can be so much that it might be so and it might be a myth that hasn't been exploded yet, but I contess that when she gave way to her emotions in that moment I did not attempt to console her. It is next to impossible to console a weeping woman. After a little the storm passed and the sobs spent their breath in the mist of her soul was not assis "You are Georges friend," she said, when she was able to talk. "Are you my friend, also?" I informed her that I was, as calm; and sincerely as could. "What is the meaning of the待客我?" I promised her that I would. "Influence George to return here," she said. "Use any means at you."

I made a thick father of a mild soap and applesauce coat with an upward motion until the lather had thoroughly disappeared.

At first I could not stay "under cover" long but with practice I can now "hold the face" 10 to 15 minutes.

I procrastinated. Now you see the folly of it. Had I told George in the beginning we would have home would be侵入. Our doneness the peace would be assured. But I was a fool. I was afraid to tell him.

If I dares a reinciliation, said, fervently, "I will get him back if I have to carry him all the way." Not a reinciliation, she said quietly in tears. "I do not have told him a year ago. He will still continue to hate me—but he will know. Maybe in time his hatred will matter. Actually, then I will have done my duty." There was the whole thing in a nutshell. She had confessed—to me. My theory of the "old love" was correct. She had made the mistake of not having made since time immemorial—she had married George in an attempt to escape the folly of a youthful episode—and, like in so many instances, the other man had come back to annoy. Although she confided in me to tell me the identity of her mysterious escort, nor did she say anything in connection with her failure to be home at 3 o'clock on that fatal morning. That part of the story was clothed in mystery, the had not been and had not gone beyond that. With mixed feelings I took my departure from that house. I did not know what stand to take. He asked me to concede her the benefit of the doubt. But after she confessed that she had actually deceived George I couldn't very well esteem her right as a lawyer, and respected her request to bring George back. It was for George's sake. It was his place to know why she had practiced this deceepment last at that he should know. I was successful in my mission. It required a deal of persuasion to overcome George's innate stubbornness, but at last I conquered it. I was able to tell him and I immediately telephoned to carolin. I could detect the gladness in her voice as she answered me over the wire. She invited me to meet her without letting George know anything about it. She added that if I was his friend I would comply. She was gradually getting on my nerves about this friendship thing, and I promised her that I would call.

She looked far different on this occasion and did not know whether it was the becoming little frock she wore, whether it was that she had her hair arranged in a different way, whether it was because she was shamming, but she seemed more cheerful, happier, and younger. In fact she was the same little Caroline I had known months before, she seemed of any man, the Caroline that deserved the honest love and protection of any man. We had tea and following that, we put our heads together and discussed the problem of which I had become a part. She outlined a plan of action to me that left me in a state of utter bewilderment. She stated frankly that she had come to the decision to bring her husband and the man together under the same roof so that her husband could see for himself why she had practices a deception upon him, and in the event that he would understand the victory would be half won. If he would fall to understand, or if he would allow his stubbornness to overrule his better judgment, if he remained intolerant, her case would be lost forever and she would pass out of his life to bother him no more, but in spite of the danger that he would fall to understand she was willing to take the chance. It was for him she was doing this, you see. Not to win back his affections, for she believed that he love her again as he once had but despised her too much now to ever deceived him without a cause. During that hectic conversation I learned to my full satisfaction that she loved a woman loves without hearing the confession of her heart: Worldly wife women may be able to conceal the hot passions that seethe in their hosoms, but good women, the skin which is the most beautiful and brain babies, are too guildless to hide the evidences of their loves under a veneer of ostentation. It shows in their smiles, their looks, their laughter, their eyes, their joy, their she was hungering for him. I knew she wanted to caress and fondle him with her hands. And knowing these things my sympathy went out to her in spite of the fact that she had confessed that she had In bringing this man and her husband together, she explained, it must be done in such a way as to meet the meeting was accidental. That is to say, it must not be known that it had been planned by her. Once face to face with this man, George would meet her in fact, but it was necessary that he remain in ignorance of the part she was playing in it. I ask her how she brought the brooch down. She straightway diagrams the whole thing. I was to go to George and inform him I had discovered the inhibitant of the brooch. George would want to know the location of the house. I was to carry him there. We were to arrive at the house. The man would be there and we would Carolin'. It would be so arranged that George and I would encounter no difficulty in guiding admission to the house. Then the man would unfold itself. Mad, funeful, crazy, unreal. That is what I thought after I learned that I would come of it? What sort of story would be unfolded—would unfold itself? What complications would arise? Which would mean so much to George—and her? We would go there and find this man. Carolin' would be with him. He would want me to tell the tragedy that would follow, a story. What foolish fancy induced her to formulate the idea of letting with the man he had every reason on earth to hate? What woman ever dreamed of such a mad thing before? She was merely preparing to dig the pit a million feet deep, and she was playing with two apparently desperate men with no more purpose in view than to prove that theittest sometimes survive. She reproved, argued, omitted, and tried to listen. She had made her plans and was determined to carry them out. In the end she might find herself in a worse predicament than she was now in, but there was no other alternative. When she was in danger of being traughed, she quickly informed me that no matter what happened, no matter how the desperate adventure terminated, George Esses was only one person that stood to lose. That was herself. WEST VIRGINIA CHARLESTOWN, W. VA. Charlestown, W. Va., April 15—Rev. E. W. Johnson, pastor of Zion M.

ED Palmer's Page Thirteen Page Fourteen 5,000 SEE SOX IN OPENER Pete Hill's Newcomers Trounce Irvington and Newarks With Ease PITCHERS SHOW WELL Force, Strong, Britt and Carr All Get Chance at Hurling Another Game Sunday The Black Sox, under the leadership of Pete Hill, their capable manager, appeared in their first exhibition game of the season last Sunday at Maryland Park and took two games, the first from the Irvingtons and second from the Newarks, both white. At no time during the entire two games did the Sox boys have to stretch themselves, but took things easy. Fully 5,000 fans from all over the State were on hand to see Pete's machine in action and showed their approval by repeated and continuous applause. In the first game Pete used his regular line-up and gave Britt and Carr a chance to warm up in the box. Both of these boys show remarkable ability as twirlers and use their heads as well as their hands. Britt struck out two in succession and seven in the four innings he was in the box. The fans, who wore the jargons, passed both with flipper colors. The game wasn't fast enough to give Wilson on first sock, the opportunity to pull off any snurs, but Day, on third, took his ear and pulled off some freak plays that kept the crowdeling. In the second game with the Newarks, which was a better team, when the second was doubled twice, the Sox won the fans what to expect this season and demonstrated their ability to get out of a hole. Force struck out the first two men up and the third was retired at first base. In Holloway, J. Wilson and Johnston, Pete has secured three of the hardest hitting outfielders we have teamed in this league. In addition to this they can have a world of great outfield and have wonderful throwing arms. In a nutshell, the most encouraging feature of the outlook for a winning combination hineses on the fact that the pitching staff looks good to hold its own. Althe Strong is about one of the youngest pitchers in league, his delivery has surpassed many twitters that have been in business as many years as he is old. Fullen is a real catcher, and knows the game from A to Z. Poles and Lindsay are particularly adept in handling the hot drives that come. They way, and both possess wonderful judgment. Taking it all in all the Sox owners have assembled one of the best looking ball clubs that ever played here, and one that is likely to be well up in the running the entire season.

SENEGALESE FIRES ANOTHER MANAGER SENEGALESE FIRES ANOTHER MANAGER Havana, Cuba, April 16—Bob Levy, white, manager of Battling Siki, has been fired. George Laurence, white, promoter, who came here several weeks ago, said he did not wait on Siki any longer to get in condition and sailed for New York several days ago. Both men claim that Siki is under the influence of certain unscrupulous parties here and gave them cold shivers. He enough shame from receipts of his training quarters to pay his expenses, Siki has barred efforts thus far to match him for a bout. As long as Levy was here he was officially recognized by the boxing commission as Siki's best fighter. He left from engaging in bouts except with his consent. Skii complains that the manager got most of the fight proceeds anyhow and that he can get along by himself. He only needs a manager, he said, when he is broke. Laurence took with him to New York; Angel Diaz, Mexican featherweight who last week won the championship of Lombardy, champion of Central and South America, Andres Balso, Spanish heavyweight and Senorita Sarita Waltle Spanish dancer, who has been promised a place in Shubert's theatricals.

Only Captain May Protest Decisions Philadelphia, Pa., April 12.—Umpires will not be rotated, but drastic rules were adopted by Eastern League magnates in session here Saturday to regulate all league games. Taylor, Jim Keenan, Tom Jackson, Colonel Strothers, Charles Spedden and Chairman Ed. Holden comprised the gathering. The two missing commissioners, Alec Pompez and Nat C. Strong were unable to attend the meeting. Pompez is now in Cuba grooming his club for the season. He was engrossed in a business deal that prevented him from making the trip to Philadelphia. Several player differences were ironed out and the prospects of having umpires rotate around the circuit was thoroughly discussed, with the result that the Commissioners on a whole are doubtless in favor of an organized bail, but due to the fact that the opening of the season is practically at hand and the revision of the present system would require more time, the matter was tabled for a future date. However, in considering the attention due the patrons of the ball parks the following rules affecting ball players and umpires were adopted by the body and will be rigidly enforced throughout the circuit. Ball Players: Concerns to our patrons of the playing field must prevail at all times. All games must be played as specified as possible, to this end it is necessary for all time be consumed or players delay in any manner the progress of a game. Manager of each club shall alone represent his club in settling any controversies that may arise on the field or protest decisions in a manner Unipro batting will not be tolerated,吊篮ment of a player from a game will sub-员 the first offence, a first offence, $200 for the second offence, and drastic action will be taken for any succeeding offence.

Our unpierced and their efficient service arbitrate subdued games a all Time. Discern must be used in selecting players to upheld organized baseball. Satisfactory service rendered will be appreciated by this Commission. It is along this line or institutional satisfaction will cause the arbitrator to be removed.

By downing the Scholastics, 33 to 21 before a mob of fans who crowded spacious New Albert Auditorium to the rafters Friday night and yelled themselves harshe, the big Greek team took the flag from the New League champions and in addition the entire gate receipts of some $100 molder the winner take all arrangement. The Scholastics tasted defeat, but they proved that the Little Alyco team, lighter in weight than the bigger Greeks, and with less experience, is nevertheless, one of the gamenbunches of youngsters in the business. The game began with the Athenians confident and the Scholastics team. The big team caged four goals before the Scholastics got in their first free throw by "Quite Brown. Wake outumped the Athenians centre, Keller, but the latter had his eye on the basket, and casually made up for his deficiency in jumping by caging the ball. Both teams were expected, were away off and played rings around their heavier opponents at times only to set miss-ups. Billy Baskerville got away from Mack Payne with such frequency that Joe Saunders sent Harmon in to guard the accurate Billy. Payne sat on the sidelines and begged so hard in the second period that Manager Joe sent him back in place of Jackson and this combination of Athletics from further scoring. Ward the Bright Star The real star of the game was "Eggy" Ward, Scholastic substitute centre. They said that Ward would never make a good player, because he was too "yellow". No one paid much attention to him as he sat thru the entire first period on the side lines and every few minutes, nudged Joe Saunders and asked to be put in the game. Finally Joe yelled on loud couch speech and didn't bother who had got to win this game and didn't bother with you. "Eggy" got his chance when Wake weakened in the middle of the second half. If there was any yellow streak there the Athletians could not find it. Not only did he outhump the tired Keller but caged two field goals before the Greeks got their eyes open. . . . "Eggy" was a "mutt" they said, but, Friday was "Eggy's" day, and the crowd cheered as he caged his third goal. The score was a 3-1 victory. Scholastic saw victory just around the corner and $100 in sight, touch deserves it. "Eggy" leaped near to the rim of the basket to put the next goal in, his fourth. Brown's attempt at goal struck the side of the basket and bounced up. No one knew "Eggy" was near until he met the ball in mid-air and toppled it over the mound. Pandemium reigned. Nothing like it had ever been seen before on a local floor. Score. Atheniens 29. Scholastics 27. Two Penalties Two penalties by Referee Gibson allowed the Athenians an additional point, but Eggy" branded him with a second goal, a one hand throw that sailed through the middle of the basket like it had eyes." There was difficulty in keeping the crowd from going out after "Eggy" and carrying him away. The Athenians with just two points lead, looked for the whistle with longing eyes and tongues in the air. They were banished that the $100 was safe in the pocket of the Athenian jeans. Baskervilles work in the first period stood out. Poles, who starred against the Vanbals and aided materially in the defeat of the Sesdians, could not get away to score a side field goal. Young players from their group, although seemed as if Manager Wright should have put him in forward in place of Poles and kept Ey Batler in the game. Neither Wood nor Hill showed to the best advantage while they were in the game. Both Payne and Harmon, once played well for the Sesdarians, and Albor and Wake could have found the basket with their shots, the story might have been altogether different.

Ted Thomas will be No. 1 next year if he learns how to drive and sleep at night. Dr. McGriff, the true blue sportsman from old Virginia, rightly in his 49th year of competition changes the time-honored adage and demands that old age have its day. Last year, I taught him in the first 10. This year he actually merited sixth place. John Wilkerson gets seventh place in spite of his unexpected triumph in the Eastern over his old rival, Dr. Rhetta, who is given eighth place. John Taylor probably could beat the Baltimore, but the fates did not permit. Richard Hudlin barely comes in at the top of the ranks. Taylor will be near the top at the edge of this summer.

There are a number of New York, New Jersey and Chicago women who I believe, are as good as some of the first 10, but because of the new sanctioned tournaments where they played and my failure to study more closely their games, I am forced to play the few times I saw the above mentioned last year. Mrs. Wade is easily No. 5 as far as being anywhere near equal to the determined and well-rounded driving play of Miss Isadore Channels, the first woman to play for Miss Helen Wills. Mrs. Crawford should easily have been No. 2. She should have played Miss Channels a far better game than Mrs. Wade in the finals, because she uses the best generalis- ship of any of our women players. Mrs. Wade offers much to choose from. They are only average players, hacking confidence, competitive experience and the necessary skill on the courts during play that takes did to make No. 1 players. Athletic Coaches To Hold Spring Meet Hampton, Va., April 16.—A plan is being formulated whereby the coaches of the various colleges will meet in Louisville, Chicago, Washington, Atlanta, Washington or some place in May or June. It will be the purpose of the meeting to be to form an association of coaches and to improve the status of athletes and physical training in Negro colleges. It is the plan of the proponents of the new association that it shall be divided in three groups: 1. Faculty representatives; 2. Athletic directors and coaches; 3. Officials. The great English game, cricket, is likely to get in the short pages this summer. Some of our brothers from the West Indies are contemplating promoting a club in Baltimore.

Miller covers more territory in a match against Mike McTigue and agrees to forift Flowers' purse to charity if the "Tiger" does not knockout McTigue in the scheduled number of 12 rounds. Rarely does a team boost of two players bleep the same name who could reil the mainstay of the team. Yet the Red Circles back up this boost with Engene and Ed West. Now comes the Black Sox with P.

Estridge started to work in earnest when the bell sounded beginning the second round. He floored Amato, who took the look in the batter taking a nine count, and rising to his feet in an unsteady condition.

The Flavor Lasts New York, Apr. 17 — The sum of the scores of the two opposing hands in the game Wills' right hand in the game Wills' right hand If the jaw bone crusher of the Bronze Panther has healed perfectly since he fractured a bone in sparring practice here several months ago, Mr. and Mrs. Wills will be $200,000 richer by next year. If not, the New Orleans fighter must start back to the docks to make his living as a steward, who will come to Wills as his share of the proceeds in a match with Jack Dempsey, certain to be staged at Tex Rickard's big bowl in Jersey City around Labor Day. Only one thing can interfere with this match. That is an unsatisfactory showing on the part of Wills in any of the contests he is to take part in previous to the Dempsey match. Wills is to meet Bartley Madden next month at the Quincy Club. He will be called on to meet Romero, Spalca or Firme, and possibly Jack Taylor. Komero, the Chilean heavyweight, is now training for a match with Floyd Johnson, Erminio Spalca, the Italian heavyweight, is due in this country shortly, and in a now on his way to Buenos Ayres, will pass on definite word whether or no Firpo has changed his mind relative to the Al Reich fight being his ring farewell. By the time these heavyweights have straightened out the situation and the Dempsey opponent is determined to win, the firm motion picture contract and will be ready to start training for the defense of his title. Governor Silzer and the State Boxing Commissioners have already sanctioned the Dempsey-Wills fight for Law Day, giving that no color line will be drawn. Jack Keens, manager of Jack Dempsey, who is already lined up with Rickard and the Jerseyites, is beginning to act as though he is shying at the idea of a Wills meeting. However, this is merely part of the process to help the million dollar match. With the top price of $25 for seats, the proceeds of the big show will easily be $1,000,000. Hempsy will get $600,000. Wilts about $200,000 and a share in the motion picture proceeds. However, all this depends upon whether or not Will's right hand is perfectly healed. If it is, he is champion of the world already with a small fortune in his pocket. If not, he is just a plain stevedore. Manager Whitehead of St. Paul promises a brand new shift when his son is much here next fall on the gridiron.

This little detail did not worry Miss Tyler, for when her friends commence to describe the "bad rags" they intended to wear, she just settled the matter by fitting herself out in one of the "theatre dresses" she had purchased. Mrs. Sallie boyer, 1748 West North avenue, for whom Miss Tyler was employed. Just as fate would have it, Mrs. Boyer needed the fine adornments of the theater dresses and the white dresses Tyler was doing the "Chairstown," the "Tamela walk" and other dances of the elite, Mrs. Boyer was making inquiries that mostly fonded Miss Tyler in the Northwestern Park.

DOCTOR WEST FAVORS ASSOCIATIONS Superintendent of Schools Is Chief Speaker Before Schoolmasters Club COOPERATION URGED Parent-Teachers Clubs, He Says Can Aid Schools In Many Ways "Parent-Teacher Associations and clubs have a definite place in school efficiency." said Superintendent Henry S. West, putting himself squarely in favor of the activities of parents associations at a meeting of the School Masters Association Friday night. Superintendent West was the invited speaker for the evening and devoted the larger part of his remarks to the question of Parent-Teacher Interaction in which they may be useful and helpful to the school system. In pointing out in detail some of the way such organizations could help the system he called attention to the opportunity to promote instruction in the institution of regular and delimited hours for home work; helping to secure better teachers and helping to improve the general morale by standing squarely behind the administration in meeting the needs of the student West also called attention to the fact that the appropriation for school purposes, while large in the aggregate, was still much less per capita than that of many cities and that the board was not able to do many things it wanted to do. He advocated the promotion of colateral activities by the association including dramas, musicals and other recreational diversions. PETER H. H. Hours—9:30 n. m., to 5:30 p. m. 7 p. m. to 8 p. m.

WILKINS SURGEON DENTIST Extracting A Specialty Gas Administered PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE & CITY REPUBLICANS FOR DELEGATES Want Post as Delegate-at Large to National Convention at Cleveland Next Month Plum Tree Has Yielded Only Half Dozen Jobs in Three Leading college politicians all over Maryland are voting the sentiment that the colored delegates to the Republican National Convention are scheduled to be the course of the course the whites have adopted during the past 20 years. They are also insisting that one of the right Presidential electors from the State be a man or woman of the race. The colored vote has best considered in the councils of the party, following the rise of Billy-wing in Maryland the past 23 years having gradually pushed them into the background or into the Democratic land wars. If the old days when men like the late Bishop Alexander W. Waveman, Bishop John Hurst, W. Waveman, John H. Murphy, john Seaton, Isaac Myers, Christian Gunners, John W. Ernest Lyman, Samuel Q. Sands, W. Ashleie Hawkins, William F. Taylor, Capt. Edward H. Wilson, H. M. St. Chair, Dr. J. W. Bishop, Wiley H. Hates, John H. Minder, Dr. H. J. Campbell, Dr. J. W. Bishop, conducted about party polls. In the old days colored men held many Federal offices. Since the overthrow of the Wilson administration in 1921, many colored jobs in the custom house have been given to members of the race. Cities where the colored vote is much smaller have race assistant district attorneys, clerks and deputy sheriffs. As a result of race influence in 1982 the late William F. Taylor was appointed a bailiff for one of the judges, which position held for nearly 15 years. Colored men hold many juries. Federal inmates appointed a deputy sheriff in 1858, Dr. Wm. I. Weaver was custodian at the post office. Former Counselman Fitzgerald says he will be at Cleveland whether or not he is deputy a deputy. The judge is said to call for the election of one delegate-director large from the Fourth District, and a number of alternatives. SPEEDING MACHINE LEAVES MAN DEAD Joshua Cole, 455 E.

A newspaper must tell the facts; even if not to the liking of its Editor, apportionment of $12,500 had been passed by the Legislature for Morgan College, but that the bill establishing the Albany School for Collegiate Studies had been sponsored because it had been sponsored by Republicans. THE ENTIRELY FALSE AND THE AROP WAS SO AWARE WHEN IT PRINTED THE LABEL. The fact is, the Morgan College apportionment sponsored by Democrat Albany bill sponsored by Senator Levin, Republican was passed by both houses but VETED by the governor, claimed by the Afro as the Race's dear friend. Why was the bill killed by the governor, even mention the Veto and then attempt to excuse him by foisting the blame on sincerity and innocent shoulders is there reason? Since the last election your Democratic friends have resuscitated Jim Crow and Segregation, Jackson's Administration subroutine Ritchie's a much-needed training institution for our defensive youth, an institution so sorry for the loss of our Grand Juries association practically all white have espoused the cause. Yet the AFPO supposed spokesmen for the race has barely mentioned the fact that the AFPO's Friends of the race must be welcomed and appreciated if our welfare is to be advanced. M. CALLOWAY 151.
