GARVEY RE-SENTENCED TO ATLANTA Suit For Annulment, Claims Colored Bride Kept Him "Soaked" MRS. FAISON IN DENIAL Exhibits Special Delivery Letters In Which He Seends Love And Kisses Washington, D. C.—Notwithstanding that he is held at St. Elizabeth's Hospital, a national institution for the treatment of the insane, Henry W. Faison, white, son of former Congressman John Miller Faison, of North Carolina, has filed suit in his own right in the District Supreme Court, for the annulment of his marriage to Mrs. Annie Nelson Faison, a former maid at the Shepherd House. Temporarily Insane Templation. In his petition, Faison tells the court that the time of the solemnization of his marriage to Miss Nelson on Saturday, January 17 last, by the Rev. Aquila Snyles, pastor of the Providence Baptist Church, was the time of his resentment, irresponsible and incapable of receiving into a valid marriage with anyone. He alleges that for a long time prior to January 17, 1925, to wit, the defendant supplied and supplied to the plaintiff large quantities of various different intoxicating liquors and enabled, induced and persuaded the plaintiff to defiantly sell a paid settlement of months large quantities of said intoxicating beverages; that for a period of about one week prior to January 17 the defendant supported the plaintiff to sell alcohol than previously, that is to say, about one quart of intoxicating liquor every 24 hours and induced and induced the plaintiff to sink the same, so that by January 17 he would be so severe with the effects of alcohol which he had consumed, as to lose control of his facilities and to become totally irresponsible and so temporarily mentally deranged and came as not to know where he was going to be when he was dead." He says that on Tuesday, January 15, he recovered his faculties, discovered himself in a house at 1342 Union street, southwest, in the company of his wife, and he departed the house. She then and there, he says, exhibited to him a marriage license. As soon as his physical and mental conditions enabled him to do so, he allowed his wife to attend the marriage and left her and Mrs. Pison and has not since that time cohabited with her as man and wife. Fusion declares that he is a person of the Caucasian race, and not of any other race. He is in his right mind and possessed of his reason, he did not intend and would not have married the defendant, "and that if the plaintiff did at some go through any marriage ceremony in such ceremony was involuntary and without his will and record and was induced and brought about solely by reason of the fact that he was married, but on the contrary was temporarily insane, his reason and mental faculties being suspended by reason of large quantities of alcohol which he had drunk and was drinking during the period of time herebefore so forth." Falson Her Lover From the story told reporters by the present Mrs. Henry W. Falson, the owner of a love letter extending a new year. This view of it is well supported by letters, which she has received many months past. His holidays while he was visiting his home at Falson. North Carolina, he wrote her repeatedly, and since he has held for "mental observation" he received three special delivery letters. Here is one letter sent her "speak delivery" from the hospital: "I thought sure I would get to talk with you more this morning but everybody was awake and closely I could not say to you what I wanted to. I hardly know what to do, as they are raising so many all here and are going to continue to think we can do is to annul the marriage. With lots of love and kisses from yours," "HENRY BARKS" M. Annie Nelson Faison is of the tentive type. There is no mistaking of racial identity. She is very dark in background, bukky in figure, and scarcely seen. The very opposite of the refined, innocent girl that the race is. now predicts. She weighs nearly 200 pounds and can have nicknamed her "Baby." --- A Rookie Cop (Second of a series of AFBO articles about colored police who have made Above, Officer Arthur Pyburn, 1655 Tremont St., Boston, assigned to Station.

B. SLEMP President's Lily-White Secretary Given Travelling Bag Before He Closed His Desk LETTER ACCOMPANIED IT Tells Of "Sweet Sorrow," "We Shall Always Love You" It Concludes. Washington, D. C.—C. Basec Slemp, who retired as Secretary to the President after 17 months of service, was presented with a leather traveling bag just before he closed his desk for the last time last Tuesday afternoon. President, ever made by Henry Lincoln Johnson, National Committeeman for Georgia. Perry W. Howard, National Committee man for Mississippi and special assistant to the District of Columbia. John D. Ganey, assistant chief clerk at large, railway mail service. Post Office Department; Arthur G. Froe, Recorder of Beds of the District of Columbia. John T. Risher, Dr. Alphonzo J. Harris and L. R. Mehlinger. LETTER ACCOMPANIED The following letter was also presented. "Dear Mr. Slemp: "Patting is often sweet sorrow. Your leaving the White House, as secretary to the President, burdens this group of your friends with a sense of sorrow, near approaching desolation, to no group refuses to help. Our president as this group of your friends, and no group was ever more loyalty and sympathetically kept in mind by you than we Our political tasks before us became a pleasure and not a burden for the reason that you had made them so. "In whatever field you may go feel assured that you have the prayers of the people and the protection of every thoughtful colored man. "Allow us to beug that you accept this trail token—as a mark of apology to the country, your service to the country, your indispensable and loyal support of the Republican party and the President of the United States, sympathy for we fellows lower down in the American equation. We admire you, we love you; we shall always admire you and we shall always admire you." APPOINTMENT CAUSED The appointment of Mr. Siemp resulted in severe criticism of the President. He was regarded as a leader of the "illy whiteies". But during his tenure he has completely disposed this notion by the cordial reception he has accorded visitors at the White House. He made it easy for colored persons to attend the President, and ordinarily would have ended at the secretary's desk was permitted to be taken up directly with the President, and it is doubtful if in any short period of time the new instrumental in bringing about the final appointment and confirmation of Walter L. Cohen as controller of customs at New Orleans, the Virgin Islands Commission, and the United States Hospital for disabled colored veterans at Tuskegee, Ala. The production of a letter written him by the late President Harding at the Cleveland convention last June, in which the late President advised him that a mistake had been made in arbitrarily establishing a charter for the University in Georgia in opposition to the regular organization, resulted in the seating of the Georgia delegation headed by Henry Lincoln Johnson in the fight against W. Howard in his fight against the "illy whiteies" in Mississippi. TALKED WITH COOLIDGE Before he left the White House, he received substantial recognition to the colored electorate of this country by the appointment of colored persons to prominent Federal offices, one of which should be office of the Register Secretary. Mr. Siemp left at midnight last Tuesday for Florida, where he will spend two weeks. He will return to Florida to work on his law. His successor, Representative Everett Sanders, of Indiana, will not formally take over the new office until after his term in Congress ends, March 4. In the meantime, Edward T. Clark, personal secretary to the governor, will work just左down, by Mr. Siemp. That He Wed While Senator Bruce Waves South's Bloody Shirt Of Prejudice Senator Bruce Waves South's Bloody Shirt Of Prejudice Extracts from address of Wm. Cabbell Bruce, Democrat, Mary Lange in Senate warning his colleagues to stand patter of state rights. Extermination and missegenation are not solutions of the race problem in the South. The proper solution is carrying along two races in parallel but never converging lines. If we should adopt the child inborn amendments the next step would be a constitutional amendment giving federal government complete control over general education in the country. Mr. McKellar. Can the Senator state how many white and how many colored illiterates there are in his State? Mr. Bruce. I can not. I can only give you. I can not enough illiterates to prevent the State from being one of the most intelligent in the United States, as is one of the most conservative and one of the sanest Editor's Note: Census figures show that many colored illiterates in Maryland, in Illinois (10,476), Missouri (18,258) or Pennsylvania (14,618), the reason for education of each white child as for each colored child.

Their views will be given in a series of 14 articles, compiled by Thomas L. Dabney, especially for the AFRO-AMERICAN. You can't afford to miss a single article. Clip the whole, series of what America's best minds consider a solution of the race problem. If popular education in this country were to pass under the control of Congress there would be mixed schools in the state and that block of children would be found sitting side by side on the public school benches in that section. As I understand it there are no mixed schools anywhere except in the South. After Congress passed the Education bill its next step would be to wipe off the statute books all laws prohibiting intermarriage of the races and breaking down all other barriers between them. Rudyard Kipling once predicted that the future American will have a slight will be in his help. If the dream will be because the race reservations of the South shall have been effaced. So I take this occasion once more to blow the trumpet and sound the comrades in any Democratic comrades at least to stand shoulder to shoulder for the purpose of resisting any further usurpations of authority by the Federal Government and even more violations of the fundamental principles upon which the free institutions of America were originally based.

Roosevelt Called 'Cracker Bluff' In Luncheon With Booker T. NO HARD JOB TO PASS FOR WHITE MAN Anonymous Writer In Century Magazine Says He's White, Tho Black MAY BE WALTER WHITE Cracker R. R. Conductor Offered To Fix It Up With White Girl New York.—"White, but Black," is the title chosen by a nameless colored man of light complexion, writing in the February Century Magazine, who tells of his experience in passing for white and colored at will. The writer, who says his eyes are light blue, his hair light brown, features Nordic, skin white; yet in his veins run few drops of Nordic blood. Many here believe the writer to be Walter F. White, a newspaper man and author connected with the N. A. A. C. F. Insurance Policy Mr. "White" is urged to join a New England life insurance company. But the policy he was offered could not be had by a colored man so he turned it down. The man goes out with his wife to a restaurant and is stared at because his wife is slightly darker than himself; when he speaks to his wife in French, whereupon the waiters become obsequiously polite. He travels in the South on a Pullman car and is assured by a man with a drop of colored blood can be distinguished by their finger nails: "If you had a single drop of nigger blood in you, you'd have a dark-blue circle right there." Indicated the color man He proposes to join a white church in a Southern city which displays a sign inscribed "I will welcome him, commends his Christianity, intelligence and character, but when informed of his Negro ancestry, coldly disdain to receive him, don't have social equality here in the South." Would Fix It Up Another time, a conductor on a Southern train, ignores a girl who offers to "fix it up" for him with a white girl travelling on the same railway car. He refuses an invitation to dinner, where he writes "white who declared: "I tell you, Suh, there isn't a Negro who ever lived that I decent enough to sit at my table." After giving a number of instances of gross prejudice against trained and intelligent colored men, the writer tells of a visit to an lishman of prominence when looks at a man seen him. Says the lishman: "Do you mean to tell me they class you as a Negro in America?" "I assured him that I was so labelled. That damned fools Americans must be 'on the race question!' he exclaimed."

COURT WRECKS GARVEY'S HOPE OF REPUBLIC Appeal Denied; Provisional President Must Serve Five Years In Atlanta Pen At Expiration Of Term Ex-U. N. I. A. Head Will Be Deported As An Alien New York. — (Afro Bureau)—For the next five years at least, the Black House, the official residence of Marcus Garvey, provisional president of Africa, head of the Black Cross Navigation Company and director general of the U. N. I. A., will be in Atlanta prison. This was made plain on Monday when in a court room, crowded with uniformed Garvey not tables and friends, Federal Judge Mack, of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals, affirmed his conviction of using the mails in a scheme to defraud. Garvey has been out under $15,000 ball since he was first sent to Atlanta in June, 1923. At that time it was charged that he had beat colored people of the country out of half a million dollars by using his paper, The Negro World, to solicit purchases of worthless stock in the Black Star Steamship Company. District Attorney Mattuck estimates that the scheme caused purchases to lose $1 million. Despite the fact that he was owed on bail in the past year and a half, Garvey has been going on confident that he would win his appeal that he inaugurated a scheme of borrowing $125,000, mostly from former stockholders in the Black Market, and sent out our another steamer, The Booker T. Washington, on a trip to the West Indies. He took good care, however, to keep away from the mails and bowed rowed to the purchase stock. Asking him to purchase stock, the formal order of the court on which defendants losing appeal are called upon to surrender ordinarily are not returned, the defendant is handed down. This would give Garvey until February 16th to settle his business affairs. District Attorney Mattuck, who prosecuted Garvey, urged that if possible Garvey be shipped to Atlanta before the week end. Garvey hated the South. If the Mattuck order goes through, if Garvey has his five years amid crackers instead, of at the government prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, which he selected. At the expiration of the five-year term, Garvey is an undesirable alien. Marcus Garvey's conviction Monday came to several thousand of his followers in Harlem like a blow between the eyes. They asserted they had lost his last possible thing for their leader. Garycy to Appeal Garveytes announced today that their chief will keep his freedom for the United States Supreme Court. An effort is being made to raise the necessary funds. The appeal will be a year or more before it is settled. CROWD APPLAUDS MURDER VERDICT Cumberland, MD.-Friends of John Dean, of Hagerstown, applauded the verdict of the Circuit Court, last week when a jury freed him of the charge of killing Clarence Gordon on the grounds of self-defense. Combination of Bourbon intellect in intolerate tolerance of spirit in the South which had brought on the Civil War. "If these creatures had any sense they would undermine they can't me abandon my policy of appointing decent men in their own localities." Other correspondence shows that President Roosevelt told Senator Pledge he intended to appoint the best men, whether black or white, to offices in the South. "There is no Republican party in the country," wrote, "simply a set of black and white sculty ways with a few commonplace decent men who have wrangled fiercely among themselves, and who make not the slightest effort to get any popular votes and whose concern is purely getting the Federal offices and sending to the National Convention, delegate who is not the entire body."

Bates handed one and Parker the other. New Jerseyers were the principal support candidates by New York members and a few from the neighboring State. Bates wanted the principal support by Parker. Parker voted for Bate by a vote of stockholders, the latter having in his possession the possession of large blocks of stock. The Bates faction, numerically stronger, insisted, with the assistance of Parker, who the chair, pronounced the procedure illegal and in violation of the rules, while member's voting strength depended on the number of shares with the affairs of the club becoming hopelessly involved when two sets of officers were called to the office.

POLLYANMAS IGNORED But Wilkinson Admits Officials Should Censor Teachers And Pupils. Washington, D. C.—In a statement to the public school teachers of divisions 10-13 at the Teachers' Institute at the Dunbar High School last Friday, Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent in charge of public schools, claimed that his letter to Miss Lucy D. Slowo, Howard University dean of women, had been "both unfortunately, and incorrectly interpreted." In the letter referred to he advised then that the school officers were not concerned with the propriety of teachers and normal school students sponsoring and participating in a show like the "Pollyanna Revue" with professional en- gagement. Mlainterpreted Letter The question was first raised by Dean Slowe in a private conference with Mr. Wilkinson. He afterwards submitted her criticism to the officers of divisions 10-13 in order to reassure himself, and under date of January 13, he gave Miss Slowe their combined opinion, the pertinent part of which is as follows: "The officers of Divisions 10-13 are of the opinion that your criticism should be forwarded by yourself to the Pollyanna Club and not to outside agencies; that while the school organization is to have in mind always the character and indeed the deportment of its employees, yet it can justify action only in the case of individual offenses; that the participation of school children in the theatrical performances is a matter for parents to determine and not the school officials. The officers are of the opinion that they have no jurisdiction in such cases." Dodges Issue Mr. Wilkinson in his statement amended by Miss Slowe. He devoted his time to a discussion of the general "concern" of the students and his responsibility as a school official, with reference thereto. She questioned whether or not it was sound educational policy for appear in a row where he had the following features: The Apache dance, the Hula-hula or Hawaiian dance, and a little child of eight years singing jazz music in the cabaret scene, Mrs. Savellon Savoy, Miss Jessie Parks, Mrs. Hartford Theophilus J. Houston, Miss Mamie Lewis, Mrs. Mirmian W. Lewis, Mrs. Jo-Ann District public school teachers, and Mrs. Arthur B. McKinney, a stenographer in Wilkinson, were patrons. The stintment says in part: "The superintendent of Schools believes that the character, the conduct and department of schools, should be supervised and off the job. The First Assistant Superintendent believes his responsibility, at all times, to censor the character and department of schools, and his responsibility, at all times, to censor the character and department of schools. The superintendent of Schools further concludes it to be his duty and responsibility to supervise and supervise appropriate times, on the ethics of the profession and the rules of right conduct in schools, and to children to participate in the剧院 remains unquestioned. The superintendent of Schools further believes that no teacher has the right, either during or after the performance that may study, the application, that is indecent, or is calculated to offend the moral sensibilities of No Differences "There in, therefore, no fundamental difference of opinion between the Dean of College of Harvard University and the First Assistant Superintendent in charge of Colored Schools as to what constitution right and paper conduct for teachers and for pupils.

C. "Folk dances taught our little children in the public school are hurtful tendencies," declared Dr. Walden in an address to a local Ministerial association last Friday night. "The kick, displaying bare legs and arms of our little girls in the presence of even small boys, can house these children in the highest sense of modesty, purity, so greatly prized in our women. Folk dancing engenders in young children a desire for what is more exciting." He continued.

M. C. A. and Dean Slope was given prolonged applause when she arose to speak and when she was arose and at the end of the meeting, she was almost friends who wished to shake her hand. The welcome accorded to Miss Slope, was not only a tribute paid to her success in the educational profession, but a request for approval of her recent stand in Washington, in which she urged greater dignity in the teaching profession. "What Should We Teach Our Yofth?" She answered by saying, "not merely information, but the principles and regulations of life, character, the face between a boy and wrong, self-respect and appreciation of the finer things in life. Passive, fashioned, passive and Victorian, but I believe with all the new freedom that has come to women, she still needs her protection from men. We must train our young men to respect woman- The only indirect reference to the Washington controversy now raging was when Dean Sloan calls the school teachers $2,000 a year not to bring to your children an appreciation of Irving Berlin, but an appreciation of the finer things in music and in art.

William Anderson, Principal “Passing Day” at Dunbar came and went with little excitement and hardly any interference with the regular routine of the school. The ratio of promotions to failures was about seven to one. Fifty-five pupils were sent to the Douglass High School, nearly fifty per cent of these boys, nearly fifty per cent of these boys, reorganization shows the same number of classes and teachers as in the last semester but the pupil-teacher ratio is considerably reduced. The only change in assignment was in the case of Mr. Bernard Webb who was given a 6-A class instead of a 6-B. Dunbar School claims the distinction of having more teachers and pupils who ride to and from school in the city than any other elementary school in the city—not in automobiles but in cars. Out of a faculty of forty, only three teachers live near campus from school practicable, while a partial survey shows more than sixty pupils who use the streets care over the far West as Imorea Street, as far East as Overlea and Campus Holabard, as far North as North Avenue and as far South as the water Business Activities Another distinction which Dunbar school claims is that it has more students named after it than any other school. In the immediate neighborhood, we have the Dunbar theatre, the Dunbar Public Library, the Dunbar Barber Shop, the Dunbar Pleasure Club, not to mention several other schools of the school by adopting its name and that of its favorite poet, the illustrious Jane Austen Dunbar.

So we set down here, the result of an investigation of the members of that profession's financial a a f a r s, balancing the income and expense. os to satisfy curi-Kennard Williams esity and to cor- rect some ludicrous ideas. Actors' Union No attempt has been made to cover the whole field, for that would be a gigantic task, calling for an office force of trained, large and required to compile an annual income tax of the entire country. Therefore, we choose little cross section from the town's early come to entertain and amuse as the contract maker is pleased to style it. Most of these actors are members of the recently formed Colored Actors' Union, which has its counterpart in the white artists. Small Salaries Members of the C. A.

No profound professional knowledge is necessary for the general thousand persons are needed as grist for this immense amusement mill.

Rival Houses There is no hard and fast rule that weds the artist to the scale gives him the right to work with them, and they, as in other lines of business, compete with the organized houses and tempt acts from the city. There is an accompanying increase of salary. The Payroll Salaries are divided in companies, according to an old troupper, in this wise: leading man, leading woman, comedian, about $100 equally divided (average) in the engagement in Pittsburgh, if accepted would gnaw deeply into the residue. Thus, if the contract is for $300 and the "jump" to Pittsburgh "sets the manager back" another $100 for the company, and another $100 for the manager est and lay his weary man-agement head? Expense High Often the manager takes care of the difficulties presented in the preceding paragraph by assuming the responsibility and maintaining his "board and keep." Offtime shrewd showmen pare salaries far below the minimum figures quoted by the company. A strong strenuck rever that grips many newcomers to the artists ranks who sacrifice everything to be called an actor. The company manager may also meet the difficulty by asking that transportation be forwarded by the owner of the house at the next stand. This is frequently done for reliable transportation until the close of the engagement he is enabled to keep the bark from foundering.

REGENT A mixed bill has been booked for the customers this week. A white male and female turn with two "saxes" and two song numbers open. The customer returns Monday morning, moving up to something like genuine applause for the finish number. Dyer and Dyer, former members of the Rosetime Revue we learn, are spotted number two. These boys do a "stepping" specialty that does not vary in any essential from other simulators. The harmony of these follows in their doubles, however, is as near perfection as it is seems possible to accomplish. They close with the inevitable harmony of these two and with energy.

Necessarily late rising course students must be the gratifying of varied food tastes and the other temperamental "blinks" of individuals are under one of these houses says that thoughtless chorus girls cause a great deal of trouble, he, therefore, must be careful. The above manager also refuses to accept civilians as lodgers or boarders, he sages saying, "The chorus girls are not as far apart as the two groups are as far apart as the poles, and jealousy and serious trouble often follow the contact, and the actor is not always aggressor." Eugene Hooten Mr. Eugene Hooten, the proprietor of a performer's boarding house in Depuy, Louisiana, said that he never lost a doll, dealing with these folk. His plan seems simple. "I give them the best that their money will buy. I understand them, and from honest dealings I know they will be able that they have come to look upon me as a counsellor and friend." Mr. Hooten modestly remarked that he had often been called upon to assist with the work of "fairy" and would willingly do an again. Many Succeed There is much unrefreshed ability among the artists working in the Southern houses, some have studied and polished themselves until their art was in the hands of managers with a consequent raise in salary and improvement in working conditions. People of the stage who gamble with life as do these artists will, perhaps, be more pitted than censured by their heroic battle against obstacles is understood by their patrons.

Matinees will be given on Wednesday and Saturday. The play by the authors of the famed "Shuffle Along," will appear in the city with the identical New York cast. The play is in two acts and 10 scenes. The "Runnin' Wild" orchestra will supply the music under the direction of Fred Carroll. The lyrics were written by Cecil Mack and the score by James Johnson.

If the T. O. B.

Numberless boasts go floating around in the theatre districts about being showman. There has been no "kids showing," but a whole lot of proving. For instance, there is Willie Two Sweet, undoubtedly, as great a paradist as the director. Willie has done "kids showing," Hope has a close second. Two Sweet wrecked that show on Monday afternoon.

DUNBAR Monday afternoon's audience overflowed into the aisles. The magnet was the "Arizona Express," a picture film. The film is of unusual length, but nobody was seen leaving until the last foot had flickered from the screen. The orchestra, under the direction of Carlos Daugherty, is an considerable factor in the entertainment. Miss Alma Harper, the pianist, is singing "I'll this week," a Greek song. I tell her, "Excuse me, I Love Stole the G I Love I." These numbers are both illustrated with slides. Both Manager Carr and Mr. Diggs, owners, seem extremely pleased by the house by the East Bulldoors.

It is romance and exciting adventure, himself accidentally an ea on a boat bound for Rid and mistaken for the U. S. Consul. Of course, there is a pretty girl in the Ruth Miller, in one of the most charming roles she has yet portrayed.

So great was Raymond's enthusiasm for the pictures that when the show was over he carried two reels of film home, there to continue the thrills that ceased when his favorite movie was over. Both reels were the property of George Jenkins, of 1719 Linden avenue. One was the picture of a hard-bolled western, broncho bustin' for the other was a comedy. The latter, was doubtlessly, taken to relieve the tense dramatic situations of the "thriller."

The authoress sprang into prominence Weeks before he translated into every written language. Elinor Glynn makes an interesting reply to those critics who have written her writings as being immoral. "I have often been condemned as an immoral writer," says Mrs. Glynn. "I challenge anyone to carefully read every word of 'His Hour,' or any other story I have written with an idea to search for a persuasive and compelling theme. If he takes with his full context and meaning, which can degrade—a single insinuation that is base or disgraceful, he heroes and heroines do not set as ladies and gentlemen of breeding."

Saturday, February 7 REGEN GILPIN NOT SO GOOD AS A DRUNKARD Part In "White Mule" Requires Him To Act As The Drunk PLAY REALLY "PUNK" Great Actor Farther From Broadway Then When He Started By ROGER DIDER for A. N. P. Gregory Clippin has shambled in and out from among us Chicagoans again. We reflect as we gaze over the grotesque panorama of his struggle in the shadowed past, of his fame, of his legacy, of his legacy. We ask ourselves why so many of us are more boomerangs propelled by our ambitions and deceived by our desires. We see Clippin played forth by Amble sharing the throne of Tama and returned to Ambition as that of the variety actor. We have wanted to know of Gilpin as a great actor. Denied the opportunity seeing him live, he have gone to his performances during his later visits to Chicago. The first time we accompanied the group, we skunked and discussed. He was insulting. Last week we went to see him again in "White Mule." We went alone and hope to be able to skunk which the better singing and acting give us. We'll admit we got a few friends ask: "What has Gilpin come to?" It was just yesterday that Chicago paid him homage. Now he comes to us as a part of the ballet theater, the Grand. We, too, wonder what Gilpin has come to, and why. "White Mule" is the story of a drunkard. As nearly all of what things white men or Jews write to propagate among and please Negroes, it is punk. It may be good for Gilpin because the more he might drink before coming on the road, the more he will be into what is required of him. He is paid to act as though he is drunk. But it does not call upon any of his exaggerated powers. The lines are exaggerated plays upon what is supposed to be in the mind of colored people. And now we come to the point: Gilpin is a great actor whose talent white writers employ. "White Mule" is the story of the wrong one. He is further from Broadway now than he was in the days when he started.

Messers Rice and Newton, the proprietors, have prepared a special menu for the day, and the musical feature promises to make dining at the Palace quite as smart.

Dancing and dining are also on the programme of the midnight entertainment. Hamer will make a personal appearance with the orchestra. AROUND HARLEM WITH JACKSON (By J. A. (Billboard) Jackson) New York, N. Y. (By The Associated Negro Press)—Sunday, January 25, was a justifiably busy day, one with happenings. The sort that leave lasting impressions. It started with a sad function that was spiritually exalting. Charles Carroll Allison was laid to rest with ceremonies conducted by the Rev. Dr. Hayes and some fraternal organizations in Mt. Olivet Church to which Allison had been a deacon. He was a little bit of a man, physically ill, but that is a big exhibition of the capabilities of our people were his three score and eleven years. He and his wife gave to the world four children, everyone of whom is a demonstration of the march of Negro progress. There is an editor, a welfare executive, an artistic dancer and a singer who has been declared to be one of America's fifteen most beautiful women. There is quality production that refutes in just one family a lot of traducing arguments of those who do not like it. The next day comes the passing of Sadie Britton, who, with her husband, Joe, was one of our earliest vaudeville celebrities. She was buried from Harlem, though she had always lived in the down-town district that was the centre in the day of her theatrical glory. Then Bill Potter, of the Philadelphia Tribune, wanders into town to rehearse a wedding that has been scheduled for October 6th. This time the big event is over, and Bill will henceforth attend scrupulously to work, as does the rest of us. Married, scribbles. Another pair of visitors from the Quaker City were F. Grant Gilmore, the author and dramatic writer, and William Stewart, owner of the hotel that bears his name. They came on a political er届a big bold move, they went right after the big National fellows by director methods. Now comes the "personal publicity promoter," Floyd Nelson, has demonstrated that he believes in publicity and advertising. As its advocate, he is frankly advertising for clients. We admire the candor of his ad, even though we know that he is not a professional记者, but a range since he wants to reach showfolk. Arthur Lyon, their impressario of Negro talent, spent a couple of hours talking with several writers about the characteristics of our performers, and he has pointed out some elemental defects in his work. He is also a professional writer, promptly asked to write a story on the subject for several publications. The Billboard hopes to be favored with his authoritative treatment of the subject, for he has had rich experience in the field. Incidentally Mr. Lyons has contracted with Sir Arthur Drury and Alfred Butt to present the Alabama Fantasties in a Plantation Room to be installed in the Tivoli Theatre, London. The contract which was arranged by the Loew offices in New York calls for sailing not later than April 15th, with a six weeks' allowance for the gas to be produced. A twelve weeks' stay in London with an option on a year more is stipulated. A new show will be organized for the Club Alabama. Troubadors Give Minstrel Show Atlantic City—Headed by Freddie Johnson and Billy Ferebee, the "Troubadours of 1325," were presented by Wilson at Fitzgerald's Auditorium on Wednesday night of last week.

The midnight performance held by "Dixie to Broadway" at the Lyric Theatre, Philadelphia, drew excellent attendance. This was the first midnight performance ever held at this house. GALLERY GODS Funny, but true, is the evidence that the latter day crop of young theatregoers is not as wise as the "Gallery God" of old. When Al Clare came out as assistant to the roping act at the Regent Hall, not a sound greeted his apprehension the act started. The old boys would have yelled "SUPER" the moment his head had passed the tormentor. ALBERTA HUNTER'S NEW ACT Alberta Hunter, the "blues" singer operated at Lecone's Theatre, Monday of last week with a three act, one girl and a boy assisting. She has an entirely new routine and is featuring new songs. New York reviewers spoke flatteringly of the act.

DEATHS IN PROFESSION The death of James F. Godman (Jimmy) in Columbus, Ohio, was mourned by his many friends in Baltimore. The deceased often played Daly's Theatre in the old days with his musical act, and won friends with his professional ability and qualities as a gentleman.

MISLEADING IDEALS The psychology of the constant exploitation of dramas enacted by Nordic actors tends to glorify the achievements of that race with an automatic disregard of those of his own people, subconsciously teaching him that white is flesh. He came to our attention in a picture house the other week, a drama was shown depleting the adventures of an avian who was wrecked in mid-ocean and who found his way to savage bays. Through the scenes the artifacts of the scenery and savage bays were subdued by the hero. writer's creation, the anti-eliminates of this picture there was lengthy and genuine applause. Every battle won by this jone hero sent his stock soaring. You may ask what of all this? You seem to be brewing tempers in teapots. PICTURE PROPAGANDA Granting that the vaunted love of a winner common to the whites is just as strong in the Negro, the accusation is just. Unfortunately they both mustilize every city and hamlet in America similar scenes to their musilice making counterpacts, and white supremacy and superiority are being slowly but surely, with Prussian efficiency, implanted in the plastic minds of the children, and in the none too dis- cerning minds of 60,000 women are cast it is as mentalals or they are placed in ridiculous contrasts, which surely does not aid in creating respect for their own among those who see them. BIRTH OF A NATION Honesty of purpose compels us to admit that the producers of these pictures have no desire to create the far reaching effects given above, we believe, but no matter what the cause, we fail as though specialized in the cause. There are, however, forces who purposefully specialized this sentiment and have without concealment of their purpose launched propaganda that has caused untold racial unrest. "The Birth of a Nation," for instance, has antagonized women, and it has antagonized suspicious feeling towards men. Finally, it has waved the red flag of the prejudiced demagogue in the face of a shallow minded white rabbit that had had much to do with the revival of the Ku Klux Klan. VALUE OF PICTURES To quote John Milton, who wrote of the five senses as the "Five Gateways of the Soul," we must concede that the eye is the main way." Edison estimates that 88 per cent of knowledge that is in education are recognized by United States Commissioner of Education, Tigert, who says, "Its value cannot be estimated. It has accomplished much and will accomplish more in the future. Other eminent writers have said that those just quoted, so the benefits for good are equal to those for evil. The solution of our problems must come from within, we may by insistent demands force the producers to film our own folk in a more truthful and desirable light. This, I believe, will produce results if the matter is presented intelligently to the average exhibitor. Sitting down and awaiting quail and manna of picture reforms to fill our upturned mouths will not avail. Support of Micheaux, who has expended energy, money and contributed his wonderful talents with no recompense, will help us to help ourselves.

HOWARD QUINT NOSES OUT MORGAN IN THRILLING GAME Page Six HOWARD WINS DECISION OVER MORGAN QUINT A Field Goal By Cobb In Extra Session Beats Out Coach Law's Basketeers 45-44. Locals Made An Early Jump And at Half Time Led By 23 To 18. A held goal by Cobb in the extra five minute session was the cause of the Morgan Col- lege quinctet's defeat by the New Albert last Friday. It was the second victory by the visit- ors over the locals. At the end of the regulation time the count was deadlocked 42 all and the extra period was a beetle battle in which the score was in doubt un- til the final whistle was blown. At half time Morgan was leading a 23 Fairly scintillating with brilliance, Morgan basketers outclassed the university he played for, the university court game seen here this season. Sheffey never showed to better advantage. He had an excellent defense, but unfortunately, four personal fouls sent him out of the game in the second frame and Carter went Sheffey's first shot gave the locals a two point lead, but a cager by Carpenter made it two all Morgan took the lead again when Sheffield looped a difficult shot, but Lee duplicated, tying up the count again. Sheffield broke the tie, putting Morgan on the long end of a 6-4 count, but whether intentionally or not, he was too great a threat to remain at large. He was drawn into or willfully fouled Carpenter, whose free throw made the score 6-5. Again Sheffield broke through the Howard defence and scoring a goal brought Morgan up two more points. A goal by McCoy and Carpenter gave the Howardites the lead for the first time, but Young and Hill soon cut this down, putting Morgan in the ascendency, and giving them a five-point lead when the whistle ended. Second Half Morgan's most commanding lead was in the second half when the score was 28 to 20, but the Capitol boys surely but slowly began a bargain: 32 to 32 with about six minutes to play. Carpenter was put out of the game by the referee for unsportsmanlike conduct and Washington went to center. The third deadlock of the game a desperate struggle began for supremacy. With the score 42-40 for Morgan, Lawton's goal ended the contest with the count at dead center for the fourth time. The extra period, Washington, who was fouled by McIntyre, made the free throw, giving Howard a point lead. Cobb goal added two more for the visit, with Washington still beating Morgan up two points and the whistle ended the session. The Preliminary The preliminary brought together the Lightning Five and the All Stars, which ended in a 30-22 victory for the Lightning Five.

SMOKE CLUB Pleasure Straight THE HALL Ben Taylor Calls Oscar Charleston Of Harrisburg World's Greatest Fielder Outfield Only Thing That Kept Team From Being Tailenders In Eastern League Race Last Season-New Infield Needed This Year The Harrishburg Giants, one of the new members of the league, was compelled to build a practically new club. The Giants have been functioning as an independent club for several years, the genial Colonial Strothers being willing to stick, although losing heavily every season. After being admitted to the Eastern League, the Giants, who is generally called the biggest man in baseball, started in to make his club come up to big league standards. His first move was to sign Oscar Charleston, of the Indiana Western League, and said by experts to be the greatest ball player in the world, to manage the club and play center field. Ping Gardner was secured from the players to add needed strength to the pitching staff. The Giants put up a strong fight for higher honors, and were nosed out of the first division by the Bacharachs in the closing weeks of play, and were nosed out of the club in the league, but were weak on the defense, their infield being upset most of the season. Charleson was also an experiment as a manager, taking his first time in the position of leader. I cannot say he has made good yet, although he did not have the caliber of players, on enough high class players to put his club in the playoffs. The flag they made a pennant spurt near the middle of the season that almost set the fans of the Capital City dizzy, but it soon died as the Giants weakened under the strain. Youth Against Age The season opened with Jordan, a veteran, and Daniels, a youngster, secured from the Detroit Stars, behind the plate. He was still very dependable, and at times he was so badly injured he could hardly stand, he was always found in the thick of battle. He is a good player, fair thrower and a whiter. Daniels, who started with Detroit, about two years ago, made a good record in the Western League, and he signed to a fat contract, but he either did not give satisfaction or got home sick, anyway, he left the club in the midwest. The bulk of the work behind the plate then fell on the veteran Jordan. Washington Potomacs were carrying three catchers at that time. I let the Giants have Fred Williams, a very good young receiver, but weak on throwing to bases and in the games the games he worked. He was later recalled by me and Harrisburg signed a young catcher from some place out West named Battles, who played the season as Jordan's understudy. Infield Pretty Fair First base was canably kept after by Edgar Wesley, for several years one of Tenny Blount's stars, of the Detroit Western League club, and joined the Detroit Stars in 1913. He is rated as one of the best first basemen in the league. A big rangy chap, with lots of speed on the bases, and very dangerous in a pinch. At second baso was Richard Jackson, a very capable little ball player, Giants and Brooklyn Royal Giants. Jackson is a fair fielder and over the average at bat. He is also a fair base runner. Weston was George Fall, who is also a basketball star. He is a good fielder, but very weak at bat. But he is very fast, covering lots of territory. Third, an Experiment Third base was an experiment program started with Wicks, a youngster who was with the Giants during the season of 1923. He could not come up and hit. George was shifted to third with George, who finished the season with the Bacharach, at shortstop. That combination would not work mainly because of the weak hitting of N. Rogers was secured from Memphis, I think, and was placed at the top of the league. He did not play season. What few games I saw him work did not impress me much. He did not look like a third baseman to me. At various times he was sent to catch the ball and played Jordan. Harrisburg, we can say, did not have a complete infield all season. **World's Greatest Outfielder** The outfield, I think, was the strongest part of the club and no doubt, kept them from being ranked in the league. I will start with Charleston, since I consider him the greatest outfielder that ever lived. I do not mention the other players, but the greatest colored outfielder, but the greatest of all colors. He can cover more ground than any other man I have ever seen. He is judging of balls bounced on the flyball. He has a fine arm and is one of the fastest men in baseball. At bat he has few equals. A good bunter is not a good bunter of bunting, and is also a slugger. By BEN TAYLOR Best Hitters in League Youth Against Age Infield Pretty Fair Third, an Experiment World's Greatest Outfielder Par-excellence. As a baser-runner he has but one rival in the east, Frank Warfield. I might also add that both are graduates of the late C. L. Taylor, of the Indianapolis A. B. C. and started with him about the Three Homers in One Game Charleston was manager and centerfielder of the Harrisburg Giants, and there was always something doing when he was in the game. Among one of his many feats last season was hitting three home runs in one game against a semi-pro club in Pennsylvania. Clarence "Fats" Jenkins was in leftfield. Jenkins is a very good outfielder, is very fast and a good hitter. He is also a basketball star in the winter and with FAL has been dubbed by writers the "Heavenly Twins." Herbert Dixon, a youngster, played right. This was his first season in the big league and he more than made good. He is a good judge of fly balls, covers lots of territory and has one of the best arms in baseball, and is also a good hitter. I almost overlooked a youngster named Russell, secured in mid-season from one of the Southern clubs. He played several games at third because he did not see him work enough to judge his ability, but in the games he worked against my club he looked pretty good. Pitching Staff Destroyed D. Cooper, C. Henry, Ping Gardner, C. Corbet, James Jeffries and Branahan composed the pitching staff at the beginning of the season. That looked like a good and dependable corps of hurriers, but it was ripped to pieces before the season Henry was released because he did not get in condition fast enough or because he would not keep in condition if different work and Jeffries was sent to Baltimore for some reason. It is not known what the Sox paid for and Corbat. A youngster named Belle was picked up from the St. Louis Giants near the middle of the season, but he did not stay in the league, showing, winning a game from the Potomacs in Harrisburg by his batting. Cooper, Gardner and Corbat are all good pitchers, but he keeps them in shape. Cooper and Corbat started with Indianapolis A. B. C.'s of the Western League in 1923, and great things were looked for from them in the A Pupil of "Chapple" Johnson They did not quite live up to expectations, but you could see ability, but not out. Ping Gardner is well known in the East and is considered one of our great pitchers when right. He is a product of the sandbox of the Philadelphia philip Johnson about 1820. He was lured away by the Hildaides in 1923, where he was going great until he came home to him to return nearly two months. Henry, of the Washington Potomacs and Glants, figured in a peculiar deal with Harris by Harrisburg without getting it in writing. They simply told him his services were no longer needed, and on one of my trips to Philadelphia and also Manager Charleson advised me to get Henry since he had been released by them almost two months before and could not get a job with In the meantime Henry had been to me asking for a job, telling me he was a free agent. After being told by the manager of the club, he joined the team. I sent him a ticket or told him to report to Philadelphia and I would refund his ticket money. I also told him his salary would start after he had earned it. He agreed to get in shape, since it had been some time since he had pitched any. A Sly Trick I was to bear all his expenses during that time. He agreed and signed a contract. After working almost a week he reported to me that he was ready to pitch and I sent him against Trenton of the Penn-Jersey League, a vert club. He pitched a great game. It was in the papers, of course, and Harrisburg immediately sent for him, claiming he was still their property. After meeting the coach of the league but nothing was ever done about it. I was thereby deprived of one of the best pitchers in the league. After meeting the most dependable man in the box. Clifford Carter was secured by Harrisburg near the close of the season. He is an in and out. He was a starter in the year that the Bill Patellus was plating that club and made a good record. Last season he was with the Baltimore Black Sox, but was released near the end of the season. He was a starter in mid-season, but soon released him. He has lots of natural ability and should make a good dependable pitcher. I consider Harrisburg a fair club that thinks he is fifth in the league. To even get that high another season they will need a third baseman, a second baseman, one good catcher and at least two first class pitchers.

PANTHERS UPSET RANDOLPH 23-16 Philadelphia, Pa.—In a desperately fought contest before a large crowd at Musical Fund Hall, the Panthers defeated the Randolph Club in a return game by the close score of 23 to 16. The Panthers had defeated the home boys in an early season contest and were confident of making two straight with the addition of several stars from the team, the country, but the machine-like play the Panthers turned them back. The last minute switch in the lineup of the Jungle Beasts, the guard and switching Billy Yancey to forward was the master stroke which brought victory to the Musical Funds. The best half was closely fought and ended with the score standing 14 to 9 in favor of the Panthers. In the second half Captain "Jiff" Campbell's boys amazed the audience with their passing; at one minute, the short snappy passes. The white boys made a desperate call to the police, calling several sensational long shots, but they could not penetrate the wall. The defense put up by the Panthers. CLAFLIN LOSES FIRST GAME TO A.

JACK JOHNSON VS. TUT JACKSON "Charity Shall Cover a Multitude of Sins." Out in Grand Rapids, Mich., there is a home for crippled children. Like all other similar homes they are always in need of funds. The good folks of the town gave programs, shows and other performances to aid the little boys and girls on the road to health and happiness. Recently newspapers, billboards and posters announced that Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion of the world, would box Tut Jackson, of Washington Court House on February 12 in a benefit crippled children. show for the four heckers. The ex-champion competed several preaching engagements. Of course, the sinners could wait for old Jack to come around and steer them into the straight and narrow path, but the crippled children must have attention first, as they have mighty cold weather in Michigan during the winter months. Even the kind hearted Governor Groesbeck said Jack's plan was great. But, again the promoters of the "charity" show failed to get the consent of the beneficary and, the management of the Children's Home disclaimed a connection with the meeting between Jack and Tut Jackson. The Boxing Commission has issued orders for the hout to be cancelled and Jack has resumed his career as an evangelist. "Charity Covers the outside of Sig." James Hill, 11, a youngster living in Louisville, Ky., wants to play professional baseball. Hill has been seen in the bull for the last 10 years. He is the youngest player of the age of 14. tour. His youth is in his favor, but he fails to mention his weight, which is a big factor in the diamond game lately. Managers and owners are seeking more and more for the six foot player that tips the scales in the neighborhood of 200 pounds. A small man has to exceptionally good to get on in the big circuits nowadays, to do all the things a big fellows does and do them better if he wants to stay on the right side of the ledger. Of course, the number of men of small stature in the game, but you will find every one exceptionally good in some department of the sport. Managers are looking for men that can put 200 pounds beneath a Ben which, according to the law of gravitation, ought to send them 150. All of the lending companies are big men, Lloyd, Mackey, Beckey, and Ben Taylor, the best and most consistent hitters in for or near the 200-pound class. Manager James Taylor, of the Baltimore Giants, was a visitor to the office last week and despite the blizzard that was raging outdoors, the leader of the Giants was fairly bubbling over with joy. "We are the champions of Baltimore and winners of a silver loving cup," said Taylor for the seventh time within the first three minutes of our conversation, "and we closed the 1924 season just as happy as larks in the springtime," said the baseball fan, watching a big truck trying to get out of a snowrift. "This year we will spend a good part of the time on the read," he declared. "We will be in and out of Maryland, Delaware, Virginia and Pennsylvania, and as soon as the weather permits my men will start right in training for a hard campaign. SEVERAL NEW FACES "I have four new players this year who are strangers in Baltimore, but are old ball players. There is Pee Smith from Jacksonville, Fla., one of the best shortfielders from their privilege to lay eyes on; C. Cofealid, a second seeder from Greenville, N. C., who will be used in center; Marshall Carrott, of Georgia and Big Boy from Mayern, S. C., 6 feet, 6 inches, and who tips the scales at 105. Big Boy will do duty here." "Another youngster we will have in our line-up will be Young Sanford, brother of the Hilldale player. We are expecting Harris, of the Pittsburgh All Stars, too; James Conway, a坐席paw, is up in White Plains, playing basketball with the White Plains club, and will be home to take his place as captain on the 30th of February." Manager Taylor's secret ambition is to play a series with the Baltimore Black Sox before the season is over and he believes his lads will put a crimp in the Eastern leaguers. In the graduation of Jerome Woods last week, the Douglas High School loses one of the best athletes the school ever turned out. Only 17 years old and weighing 115 pounds, Woods is considered one of the best scholastic basketball players in the East. Woods stirred his basketball career with the Pirates several years ago in the 85 pounds class. These youngsters licked everything their weight in the city. Some of the members of the team W. Spencer, who is now Howard, M. Tucker, who is attending Hampton, Neal Gilmore, of the National Grace champions, and Tom Hays, member of the High School Five. Some think Woods' weight is a handicap, but like "Jazz" Byrd, what he lacks in weight he makes up in speed. A dead shot, he rarely misses a basket and in nearly every game his work stands out as high scorer. He is a good defensive as well as offensive player and plays a clean game at all times. In his last game for his Alma Mater against Minor Normal last week, he caged four field goals and five fouls, leading the point getters for Douglas. Woods eventually to enter Springfield next year and specialize in athletics. At the rate he is going now we predict a brilliant career for this Baltimore LEADS WEST LEADS THE BOWLERS According to the week's list of high scorers at the Bowling Center, the name of Joseph Woods leads the rest with a total of 156 pins in a single game. There is a mighty good record with duck pins. This record is Thursday of last week. Second on the list comes Earl Marcell with 142. Everybody knows "Mouse" mascot for the Black Sox. "Mouse" flings a mean twisting ball that the pins seem to draw like a magnet. Then Them Marcell comes third with 142 pins and J. Gene Payne, the printer, occupies fourth position with 140. This bunch ought to make a team that could hold their own with any in the State. Office Consultation and Treatment $2 DR. ROBERT X. GIERING A. By AFRO SPORTS EDITOR "CHARITY SHALL COVER, ETC."

A woman Ku Klux Klan organizer declares there should be capital punishment meted to whites who marry colored people, and in the next breath admits that there are 3,000 mixed couples legally married in Chicago alone.

Criticising the Preacher No man has harder people to serve than the gospel. His critics are many, and the critic of a Texas paper comments as follows: "The past time. If his hair is gray, he is old. If he hasn't had experience. If he has ten too many; if he has none, he isn't a good life sings in the choir, she is presuming; ifn't interested in her husband's work." "If a preacher reads from notes, he is a host extemporaneously, he isn't deep enough. Some in his study he doesn't mix enough with his seen around the streets, he ought to be his good sermon. If he calls on some poor fading to the grand-stand; if he calls at the shy, he is an aristocrat. Whatever he does have told him to do better." Marcus Garvey—This Way Out As forecast in these columns for the past year, the conviction of Mr. Marcus Garvey on the elently using the United States mails to collect various steamship enterprises, the upper Federal York has denied his appeal, and ordered his five-year sentence in Atlanta prison. At the end of this period, he must pay a fine will then be deported as an undesirable alien. Uncle Sam is holding open the exit while the Provisional President of Africa. Had he elected himself the provisional president or the British West Indies, there might have om or logic in his efforts, but to select Africa, is native home, which he has never seen, he welcome him not, for colonization purposes once of the short-sighted policy which led to his fall. The Back-To-Africa Movement is nothing new it has been tried and failed. Here is the most american black man. He wants, he seeks it not altogether satisfied with it. He is clamely, for the same citizenship here as others end that black men helped colonize the country constitution which governs it, made it fertile and covered its battlefields with his blood. American citizens with 350 years of residue need the advice of no alien Britisher as to it. Public sentiment backs the Federal courtsing Mr. Garvey to the door. No man has harder people to serve than the minister of the gospel. His critics are many, and the criticisms varied. A Texas paper comments as follows: "The preacher has a great time. If his hair is gray, he is old. If he is a young man, he hasn't had experience. If he has ten children he has too many; if he has none, he isn't a good example. If his wife sings in the choir, she is presuming; if she doesn't she isn't interested in her husband's work." "If a preacher reads from notes, he is a bore; if he speaks extemporaneously, he isn't deep enough. If he stays at home in his study he doesn't mix enough with the people; if he is seen around the streets, he ought to be home getting up a good sermon. If he calls on some poor family, he is playing to the grand-stand; if he calls at the home of the wealthy, he is an aristocrat. Whatever he does, someone could have told him to do better." Marcus Garvey-This Way Out As forcast in these columns for the past year and a half since the conviction of Mr. Marcus Garvey on the charge of fraudulently using the United States mails to collect funds for his various steamship enterprises, the upper Federal court of New York has denied his appeal, and ordered him to serve his five-year sentence in Atlanta prison. At the end of this period, he must pay a fine of $1,000, and will then be deported as an undesirable alien. To Mr. Garvey, Uncle Sam is holding open the exit while exclaiming "THIS WAY OUT." Few countries in the world would have been as patient and as lenient with Mr. Garvey as the United States. No one recognized this any quicker than Mr. Garvey, who, a British subject, yet selected the United States in which to set himself up as the Provisional President of Africa. Had he elected himself the provisional president of Jamaica or the British West Indies, there might have been some wisdom or logic in his efforts, but to select Africa, a continent not his native home, which he has never seen, and whose people welcome him not, for colonization purposes, is but one evidence of the short-sighted policy which led to his ultimate downfall. The Back-To-Africa Movement is nothing new in America. It has been tried and failed. Here is the motherland of the American black man. He wants, he seeks none other. He is not altogether satisfied with it. He is clamoring, and rightly, for the same citizenship here as others enjoy, on the ground that black men helped colonize the country, voted for the constitution which governs it, made it fertile with his labor, and covered its battlefields with his blood. American citizens with 350 years of residence behind them, need the advice of no alien Britiser as to their allegiance. Public sentiment backs the Federal courts which are showing Mr. Garvey to the door. Senator Bruce-Historian Senator William Cabell Bruce, Democrat, ofallen from grace.

He is the same Senator Bruce whose independence of action and courage astonished his colleagues in the upper house. He opposed the bonus bill to aid war veterans, he was in favor of a State, but not a Federal anti-lynching bill. He would lease Mussel Shoals to Henry Ford or anybody who would take it, except Uncle Sam, and he told Senator Borah to his face that he needed to study his history again, if he believed that we had not paid to France the money we borrowed during the Revolution. Then came the debate on the amendment to withdraw our marines from Haiti, and the Maryland Senator in voting "no" intimated he preferred Haiti civilized to Haiti freed. He also declared his opposition to the child labor amendment and the bill to establish a Federal Department of Education. In other words, Senator Bruce votes consistently to clip the wings of the Federal government at home, but is fully convinced that it is perfectly proper to usurp the authority of an outside weaker nation. He forgets that, despite our "good" intentions, if Haitians say they are not benefitted, they are not. He forgets that our rifles can keep Haitians in subjection, but cannot make them sing the "Star Spangled Banner" with any enthusiasm. He forgets we cannot civilize the Haitians by cramming it down their throats, instead of allowing them to develop it from within. Senator Bruce may know his American History, but he has evidently overlooked the experience of certain other nations who believe themselves able to exploit Ireland, Egypt, Alsace Lorraine, India and Egypt. We commend this study to him, and while we are about it, we suggest that he tell the Senate what the Filipinos think of us after 25 years of our busybody civilizing efforts there. The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly EDITORIAL PAGE WHAT MUST I DO WITH HIM? DROP MUM IN— AND LET THEM ALL MELT UP TOGETHER K.K.K. MISS COLUMBIA FRED B. MORTON DAY BY DAY WITH WILLIAM N. JONES "11" ... er end of the problem is the spectacle of the son of former Representative of the en- clave of the race clash of ra- cles of the South, and in the land that what he was doing. "In the South, perhaps as no where else, the social aspects of the race problem is being solved biologically, at en- clave." "God's Stepchildren." ... For a burning picture of the enervable clash of race in the world in Africa, turn your attention to a recently published non-miscegenation in that wakening land of undeveloped wealth and history by Mrs. Sarah Gertrude Millin. A. B. A $500,000 Baby Lita Gray, estranged wife of Charlie Chaplain, noted screen clown, has been a trust fund set aside $500,000 as a trust fund for her unborn baby. If she is successful, the "poor little girl" will have a start in life just about $475,000 behind the average child born in good health and just about that much less chance of survival. the title of her book, "God's Steepchildren," very aptly expresses the understated purpose and purpose for which it was written. It is the story of one Rev. Andrew Flood, who went to the gospel, taking with him not only the spirit, but the practice of Christianity, and solemnly murraying a woman of confidence of concern her own life. Aside from what is required to properly rear, educate and physically train the average youth, you should also be needed. Every boy and every girl should some time have the privilege in life of saying that THEY MADE THE GRADLE. They cannot be made they have to make. From this point on Mrs. Millin might as well have shifted her heart to Africa, rather than work it out amid half developed human beings in the heart of Africa. But the fortunes of those in whose divided natures the inspiration toward the white man's shadow shadows are ever present. In our democracy in the race of life, every child should have the right to be free to toe the line. Some day it will be just as much a crime to make weaklings by overindulgence as it is to make robbers by just chasing them. Strangely enough, she carries the propensity of the Rev. Andrew Flood through three generations of brown skinned life, but subtly carries it back again in to their womb where the fourth generation again loose themselves completely in the white world. A certain amount of struggle, a certain amount of yearning for success, and a certain amount of healthy opposition are needed in the life of The Blind Policy Of Political Snobbery This very thing has happened over and over again here in this land and in this city. The old "best family" has made an excursion into the blood stream of the very kind of brown skinned group to whom she has now learned to ex- Certain political leaders, aping the mistakes as well as the virtues of the party, have been through the ceremony of reading a few men with minds of their own out of the party. This is rather interesting political philosophy. But the other interesting thing about this remarkable book is that it comes over the Rev. Andrew Flood, Mrs. Millin, chris his spirit and so and so, the raitor of racial antipathy growing out of the experience when one of his children brings back to him a grandchild, whose father is a Dutch In the 1820 presidential campaign, Mr. George R. James, the outstanding business leader in the State of Tennessee, told men that because of the tariff stand of the Democratic administration, he would vote and work for Republican success at the polls. That year Tennessee was struck at the part of the Mr. the party, see some light and the James, made the national leaders in next year Mr. James was found back in the Void and Tennessee went Democrat. To those who have studied the failure of religion to solve this enlightening problem this is enlightening. Even the most deep-seated religion shudders and angues Suppose all Republicans always voted the straight republican ticket and suppose all Democrats always voted the Democratic ticket. There would be no use of two parties for which ever party would power would re-definitely Even with Mrs. Millin's picture of the natural disaster that comes from the earthquake, you cannot help feeling that despite the artistic manner in which she has handled the subject, she has developed and revived slavery and the intense hatred it fathered, to a social bondage, while they looked on at the freedom with which their men sought the companionship of their darker To those who look only for spoils and plums, this kind of political philosophy is a healthy movement that has taken place in the race during the last few years has been the tendency to free-market, that make no ruling, count in elections.

Instead, he reads a chapter or two of the Bible daily. Up until he graduated, his B course has stood up, good stead, but the other day there was a slip somewhere, when Tiger met Jack Delaney, of Connecticut. Delaney caused the server get stuck to the court for the count of 10, and was awarded the decision. Watch As Well As Pray It is likely one of three things happened on that day. Flowers may have overstepped himself and did not know what to do. I should be morning Bible exercise. Then, maybe, Delaney reads a few chapters every morning, but in all probability she will not mind on the good book, thinking about that place which has been prepared for all of us good boys and girls. I was preparing for him on the mat for the count of 10. I would call Tiger Flowers' attention to the fact that the Bible not only says 'pray,' but 'watch and pray.' More Charges Mrs. Baurensmidt's charge against Superintendent West have been in saddle. The charges preferred were evidently groundless and it was thought this charge business was all over. I can tell you that if I can hear clearly and my grasp of the English language permits me to understand what I hear, then we are not more than a few days ago I overheard a young man preparing his "brief".

O'Donnell, Publisher, N. W., 489 pages. Dr. Weatherford's book is an encyclopedic volume of nearly 1,000 pages. It starts with the Negro race in Africa, deals at length with the religious and social background, the ground, the history and fall of slavery in America, advancement of the race since the war, and ends up with a discussion of what variegated agencies are doing for inter-racial co-operation, inclined white as the only good color, it was the white man who did that," says Dr. Weatherford. The whole book is shot through such common sense philosophy of the better. Southern white The work is not 'perfect by any means. For example, the author does work in the intermarriage, he favors limited suffrage to Negroes, making black men a part of law enforcement agency and a human instead of a beast of burden. From a white man's point of view, solution of the Negro in the South is nothing' to bring about inter-racial good will. Julius Rosenwald thought so, and that he has ordered copies placed in every public library in the South.

The Colonel Goethals, as I remember it, was plenty boat and if it has not shrunk and he should yet be in uniform. The boat is so well and so good, but the man behind the boat deserves more consideration. After an anglistician, I am here. I have arrived at two conclusions. First, the Salvation Army is and always was right in its contention that man may always outperform Marcus. If he possesses nothing else but, has what is known as Courage, in the King's English, Stamina in the parlance of the prize ring and "guts" in the language, in this last "rally" he has just pun on, he reminds me of a bootlegger in his vision. A bootlegger can always see the silver lining in the story, a safety jacket he looks on the other side of the jail house. The object in view is so uppermind in his mind that he looks down on all judges and falls with contemptable judge, sitting in the corner, of the United District Court of, New York, has told you Marcus is jailed for his failure to show justice or injustice and in the meantime has also gotten a boat. We don't have to believe what Garvey says, no more. If we don't give him credit, if we don't give him credit, but we must give him credit for putting on a hustle, especially in view of the fact the 'panic' was on when Booker T. Washington in.

Our numerals are Arabic and came from the Arabians. They were an African race. The northern Arabs were mutates, while the southern Arabs were black and akin to the Ethiopians. ROBERT P. EDWARDS for A. N. P 1. He was born in England, August 15, 1875. His father was a native African, who at 12 years of age was a noted physician. His mother was a native of England. He started his musical career at five years of age. He also possessed a beautiful voice, and as a lad won many contests. In after years he taught music in Croydon Conservatory of the Handel Choral Society, and the Handel Orchestra, of England. In 1903 he visited the United States festivals and the festivals given in his honor. He was the first Negro to conduct the Great United States Marine Band, and was the greatest living conductors. He died in 1912, and is numbered among the greatest composers that ever lived. His work "Howlwaters, Honors!" No Santa Claus Garvey's New Boat HOOSIT? Kelly Miller, Says Kelly Miller, Says I have one great consolation in being cast outside of the local Republican Party as constituted by the State Committee of the District of Columbia. This action places me in company with ninety-nine and six tenths per cent of the citizens, even those of Republican persuasion in this jurisdiction. I can take one month's salary of a county school teacher and give every citizen of Washington one dollar each who will swear that he ever voted for the State Committee, or to any slate which it has ever submitted to the franchise of the people. A Man Without A Party We have all heard of a man without a country, and I have heard of a man without a thing under the sun. I presume that I enjoy this singular distinction among all the hundred milled cities of the world. I read in the press some days ago the startling announcement that "Kelly Miller, a Holocaust Party," I confess, the interest announced amusingly. I find that it was the Jim-crow section of the party, and the Dilemite of Columbia that performed the first act of expulsion of a private individual from a political party in the history of American politics, supposed from my study of democratic polity that the matter of granting or withholding of support for a party or party rested wholly with the judgment and conscience of the individual. That every citizen was left unquestioned in the conscience of political adherence. That he might support different parties at different times or select persons on different times or selection without discipline or tense. I have read somewhere in political history that Horace Greely, Charles Summer and Chaundy McDewep had denied President Grant in 1872. I can recall the Mugwump defection against Blaine in 1884. True and tried Republicans, by the tens of thousands rallied to the standard Grover Cleveland against the tattooed president. During the free silver campaign of 1896, the gold Democrats, who did not give out and out support to William McKinley, organized with Palmer and Buckner as standard bearers, merely as a disguised auxiliary of the Republican party. If I mistake not, it was Woodrow Wilson who made him the master of the Democratic party, who at this time declared that Bryan, at the regular nominee of his party, should be knocked into a cocked hat. Suppose that he had read out of the party, there would have been a different political tale to tell. In 1912, the vast majority of the Republican party bolted the Republican ticket. There was left only a sufficient residue of the Democrats in the party. Had the vindictive party then read out of its fold Roosevelt and his supporters they would have had a quotum left. Ask Senator Cummings and Perry had cared where they would be held and such a merciless Iate befallen them. In 1920 I supported Harding against my good personal friend, Ashleigh Hawkins, of Baltimore, who had not only won the nominee but the nominee for Senator from Maryland with the avowed purpose of defeating the Republican candidate. But now behold Ashleigh Hawkins sitting down in the Kingdom of England at A. Cobb, while I, with my whilom fidility, must be cast out. During the last campaign thousands of Democrat votes for Coolidge, thousands of Republicans, mainly colored, voted for the Republican of Republicans, white and colored, voted for LaFollette. The Republican members of the United States Senate have undertaken to exclude the Republican from participation in the party caucus and the spoils of office. This action was based, not so much on their revolt during the campaign, as upon their stubborn refusal to support the legislative program in the Senate. Senator Butler, the chairman of the Republican National Committee, on January 27, laid down his policy of party discipline, in the following declaration: "I have no thought of a system of discipline which seeks to exclude a woman or woman to aspire or stand for office or to limit their rights to propose or advance legislative or party programs. But a man who is elective must stand on that platform." Mr. Butler's policy is reasonable enough, so far as political ethics run. But the State Committee of the Republican party is more precipitant. They acted without consulting their master. If I were so minded to stir up mischief, I would have been more careful. The local committee for violating essential party procedure as laid down by him. I was not elected to any office on a Republican platform, and therefore am entirely outside of the pale of party discipline, according to the decree of Mr. Butler, the law gives the Republican organization between conventions. The Baltimore AFRO-AMERICAN states that there were half a million colored citizens who left the folds of the party during the last campaign, but I alone am selected for retaliation, for the reason that the owner of Sloan fell the rest that dwelt in Jerusalem. Senator Wheeler, of Montana, ran on the ticket with LaFolette without losing standing or regularity in the Democratic party. He was known and nationally honored Negro Republican, the negro Democratic reinforcement during the last campaign. A campaign which might have suggested a new rendering of an old song, "See the mights hosting Lewin, Lewin, I wonder Butter has instructed the State, Committee of Massachusetts, Followed Many Precedents The Roosevelt Bolt Bolters From All Parties his home state to excommunicate the ex-assistant attorney general from the Republican party of the state and of the nation. Steam Roller Committee Indeed, comparisons are odious. If my sins were less, why should my punishment be so much more severe. But I have one great advantage of the fold of the local Republican party as constituted by the State Committee of the District of Columbia. This action places me in company with a per cent of the citizens, even those of Republican persuasion in this jurisdiction. I can take one month's salary of a country school teacher and give every citizen of Washington one dividend. I can vote for the State Committee or for any state which it has ever submitted to the franchise of the people. This organization came into power by raping the rights of the city's skillful manipulation and maneuvering so as to secure recognition from the National Republican Committee. Every honest man in and out of the organization knows this to be the truth; it it found in a frank expression. A handful of highly respectable citizens of Washington, white and colored, in order to put an end to the unseemless exploitation of the rights of the people, after the manner of the Southern political protetees. I acknowledge my share of the guilt. It was a game of unjustified ethnic hatred, a political ethical ethics. Like the apostle Paul, I stood by, watching the garments while the others stoned Stephen. And now, I must take my medicine like a man. My punishment is deserved. The sight is light in comparison with the sir. Political Independence Let us for a moment consider the competence of my excommunicatorates Behold, a political party without a vote; and a state committee without a state. The Republican party in the river without water. It did not cast a single vote for Coolidge in the last election. It does not elect a solitary official, whom the committee proved to be wholly effectless in advising or persuading the President to allow only notable achievements during the four years of its history have been the selection of delegates to the national convention of one who showed symptoms of political independence. Ku Klux Klan Was Jasue In my writings I have always discussed public questions analytically. I try to deal with pending measures with impartiality and to measure doubt, and not by partisan narrowness. To me there was one supreme issue in the campaign, and that was the Klu Klux Klan. All other questions seemed to be addressed to this test Davarranked first. La Foille, second, and Coolidge third. I so beloved and so stated. I may have been mistaken; I may have been wrong; I intelligence and conscience us that was all I had. The vast majority of my fellow citizens did not agree with me. But seven million majority cannot alter a fundamental conviction. Mr. Coolidge with the granite conscience of New England, will appreciate this, even if the State Committee of the District of Columbia, Mr. Coolidge for the same reason that the State Committee did not vote for him—simply because I had no vote to cast. I exercised the right of conscience and of free speech under For this I am expelled from the Republican party by a precarious vote. I am also selfless the State Committee of the District of Columbia. If I took the matter seriously I would appeal the Mr. Butler and to President Coolidge himself. Will Continue Policy I shall, in the future, as in the past, continue to discuss public measures and shall approve or disapprove Republican or Democratic candidates in the dictates of my best conscience and judgment. I feel under moral obligation to those who do me the courtesy to read and appreciate my utterances, not to be false to my own beliefs, and not to the expeditions of political gyrations. All of which I shall do without let or hindrance of the State Republican Committee of the District of Columbia. This connection the propriety of school men taking part in political activity has been whispered. This shows a narrow minded attitude concerning the function of the educator. It is the privilege and the responsibility that he feels that he has any worthwhile ideas on public questions to release them for the good of the people. College Men In Politics President Elliott, of Harvard, was proffered the ambassadorship to Great Britain; President Nicholas Murray Butler, who was the President of the Republican in 1912; Attorney General Stone was called to the Cabinet from the deanship of Columbia Law School. Murray, of the University, was made ambassador to Turkey. Senator Bingham, of Connecticut, was elected from the Yale faculty, and Senator Bingham was seriously proposed as the Democratic nominee for the last election. Indeed the highest function of a senator is "to represent the public thought and action in the way they should go." AUNT DILSEY'S PUZZLE CORNER FOR CHILDREN WHAT ARE THEY?

Pour hot water, a pinch of tartar, butter like of walnut, 1 teaspoon lemongrass, or vanilla extract. Boll until it forms the corn. Dark corn syrup may be used. Butches may be colored for variety. Nuts of any kind may be added. Large nuts can be used. Butches can be sold for more, as they cost more. I press the corn in bricks by putting it in a butter-brick mold.

When a man asks for a date should the girl or the young man suggest it? If a young man friend lives in another town is it correct for the girl to ask for a date night if the the parents approve? Or should they ask him? What are their rules? Is it all right to give your picture to young men? THANK YOU The young man usually waits until the girl augments going home. the girl suggests going home. The girl asks you to come with some definite dance or party, she asks the girl where she wishes to be. It is quite correct to ask the young man to dinner, but it is the place of your parents to ask him to stay over It is indivisible to give your picture to a man unless you give to him. It is indivisible to complications. She Has a Real Problem I am twenty years of age, a wife and a husband, who is two years my senior, tells me he loves me. Sometimes I hears, and would do everything I could to make him happy, but the time has come when he is on paid parties, drinks and spend a great deal of money. He goes on these parties every pay day, I believe every man should have one or two evenings a week to himself, but he stays out at night and he begged him not to do these things, but he don't seem to see any harm in what things he has to the children and I need I could not stand it if it were not for the children, I would have to have to put my baskets in a home.

Of course his work may be difficult, but it might be a good idea to make the effort and surprise him.

Call VErnon 6017 "By Sanction of Law" The tragedy of a Southern aristocratic family which outposes marriage of their daughter to a col. ored man only to find out that it has colored blood. Continued from Last Week "How're we going to begin looking?—We won't know where to start for we don't know just what we're looking for?—Mary wants us where the black blood, Aunt Sally Gorton mentioned, comes into the family," asserted Elvin. "And I'm going to find it, if it's here." Guess you'll have to trace the manhes then. I think they went by families from generation to generation, according to this book, Marley suggested. "My! they gave a lot of time to search for the faded and yellow the ink—Look at this. Here's the Middleton family. That's right. See they kept the family name running from one set to the other." Look for Laurient, then—See if you find that book," suggested Elvin. "Laurient—Laurient—L—L—L— Here's Livington." Marley called as he studied the pages. He's Lucas, Linda, Lenners—and Little-Johns—and Letters—and here you are. Here you are," he finally exclaimed excitedly. Laurient hurried to him and bent over his shoulder peering into the darkness and volume of unusual dimenions. "There's Dr. Frederick Lauriston who attended General Gleterto in the Revolutionary time," Marley continued. "He married the longer traced across the page. 'He married Elizabeth Cooper. Their three sons married white, all right. And, the male children of the next generation married white; the next generation," he continued to trace, while Elvin looked over his shoulder following the tracings. "And the next," he continued. "Ah," he drew a long breath. Here, it is, he seemed excitedly, "See me one of the sons in this generation, a lawyer, married out of the race. See Elvin, there it is, sure you're born. Married Elsiph With erspoon, temm de couleur. Well, I'm temm de couleur. That means colored woman." Elvin was speechless. He stared vacantly at the words written on the page and standing out before him from another daisy. He believed the words though they seemed to stand out in two-inch size. His breath came quick and in pent up bursts; his eyes widened and seemed to be filled with a companion's finger rested at the expression. The room was so still a mouse gnawing in the far corner of the room could be heard. Elvin was the first to break the spell. "Well, well, well," he continued. "Who'd ever have believed it?" Elvin received his breath. "My Givens," he insisted. "The he was right—Aunt Sally was right!" "That's nothing," comforted Marley. "Let's look at some of the others. See here. He's the female he'd be courteur marriage. They must have been pretty white and pretty women for that." "Turn over to your own family, let that," suggested Elvin. "Not by a durned sight!" exclaimed Marley positively. "Not by a durned sight!" I don't want to know. Let the dead stay dead. You wanted to know about yours and you found out. I wanted to know about mina. I know enough," he announced emphatically. "Why almost every family, some even spoiled the strain," observed Elvina. "What a land. I wonder if these people knew their origin?" he asked the pages containing the family names. "Of course not," exclaimed Marley. "Did you know yours?" A cold moisture dampened Elvin's forehead as he stood in the cold clammy room, ought to be destroyed. Suppose bye and bye somebody else sees them? "Yes, just suppose," suggested Marley fncetiously. "They must be destroyed. murmur must be destroyed. They must be destroyed. Come on John," he urged. "I've seen enough." "I've seen too much myself," Marley commented. Marley commented. Both men closed and replaced the books, stepped from the room and the street. They made their way above and went silently to the street. Once again in the open, despite the cloudy skies, they clinked and handed the themselves to the change. Still silently, they made their way to their hotel, where for a time they bushed themselves removing the dirt and dust from their buildings. By the time this was concluded, rain which had been threatening all the morning began to drip steadily from the sky. Toward evening there were more people at the hotel and made ready to start for their homes. They were on their way before darkness set in. It was near midnight when Orsan started first the sound of clanging bells, yelling of men and the hurrying of many feet. Here and there from houses all over the town there were people coming to the center of the town. The sky at the center of the town was ablaze. Others were leaving their homes hurriedly donning their outer garments as they ran. The whole city was seething with excitement. "Come on. Fire down town," one rushing passerby urged to another. "Whole city's burning up," shouted others. Horses drawn and hand tub appaired, clanging on the fence in a few minutes, the entire square, scene of so many thrilling experiences, was packed with a slowly moving, foostling, excited mass, their faces reddened from reflection of the flames which were mounting to the sky and vieing with the church. It was threatened by the flying sparks. "Courthouse on fire! Courthouse one fire!" back the words were hurled from mouth to mouth till all the city, white and black, seemed to be pouring into the center. Frantic efforts were being made to save old records. Most of the recent ones were saved. The old historic building, however, that had stood for so many generations, and had been the scene of so many experiences from slave selling to murder trials, was doomed. As its clender rafters and framework caved in, sending clouds of sparks into the sky the old cim tree tha thad stood, like a companion to the courthouse for so many years and which had been used for the double lynching not long before. surrendered to the flames and was soon also a mass of burning embers. The limb from which the bodies had swung was the first to fall after the leaves. It drooped with a heavy crash, devoured by flames and sparks which seemingly had pounced on it like a mass of devouring, revenging insects. The courthouse, being of infamable material and being so old that it was a veritable tinderbox, was YEAR'S MOST THRILLING RACE NO unction o BY JOSHUA HENRY JONES most completely consumed. As the last shower of sparks illuminated the man's coat, he been seated quietly on his mounts at the outskirts of the city on a slight elevation, turned the heads of their horses to the left, and their sides with stirruns then rode into the darkness. Neither spoke but both were satisfied. They watched that records as they had viewed that day would never be again visible to mortal eyes. Daylight was turned to the sun, and turned his horse into its stall and trumped wearily and despondently to his room. So exhausted was his body that he sank into deep slum, before his head touched the pillow. CHAPTER XXXII. Ternuan and Lida were strolling late in the afternoon, their plans for eloping having been delayed. The day had been long, and the banked clouds crossing the sky with swift menacing proportions from the south. Every cloud threatened a shower, thus keeping all except the lovers within doors, from the heaviness of the atmosphere. The two had been walking along the edge of the woods not far from the cave, and the open door to the open to view the sky to see if rain still threatened. The sky was of a deep blue overcast. While from the south there came up these clouds, also from the north and south across the horizon, other lower, smoky clouds. The couple were now walking in the fields several hundred feet away from the woods, crossing the From where they were they could see for several miles across fields of cotton, corn and wheat. In one direction, they discovered farmland while almost directly opposite some two miles away was another corse where tall pines reared their heads prior to the wind. Below these, as if under their protecting wings were giant oaks, hockery and other trees with a southern prowess, with undergrowth near the ground. Suddenly the two halted in their tracks and stood wonderingly at the low rumbling noise greeting their timid distant thunder. The wind, too, was beginning to freshen into a gale. Lida's hair blowing to the land and the hills, she stood a jack rabbit bounded across their path on its way to a burrow in the furze near the edge of the woods. A squirrel jumping in a wrightened way, as it ran. A flock of crows that had been feeding in a field nearby, flying in the wind, cawed excitedly as they passed. A pair of blue jays, also fluttered by. The rumble grew louder as the velocity of the wind increased and the trees began to sway far over as if to seemingly almost bend and snap. Unconsciously fear seemed to grip the hearts of the two as they stood helplessly looking from one to the other. They were just about to start back for the woods and the cave when from far across the woods to the south could be seen a funnel-shaped blue-black cloud, darker than those which formed a background for it. This funnel-shaped cloud twisted and gyrated from one side to the other coming ominously on toward them. Truman's arm was about the waist of the girl while she leaned unconsciously toward him for protection. They gazed at the cloud as if entranced out of their wills. The gale was so fierce by this time that they scarcely kept their footing. Truman uttered but two words: "a cyclone." Into Lida's face there crept not fear but confidence. Truman realized that to run for the woods would be to court danger of death from flying tree branches and limbs, for as they stood watchening the trees were twisted from the bodies of the tall pines and wrenched high up into the air. Great limbs of leaving oaks were tossed about after being torn away from their trunks as if they were so many feathers. Truman was in the easiest ease of sticks that had lost their balance. The cyclone's action was FREE SAMPLE SEE COUPON Amazing Bea Makes Com Clear a Makes Complexions Clear and Lighter!

He knew that he could remain stationary their best choice for life without injury, would be able to lift a child, or who could withstand the force of a stump. They were now fighting to keep balance and to prevent being blown away. They stood with difficulty. They discovered a tree stump of small size. To toward this he maneuvered with the girl. They were always blown past it by the wind. Trump was placing his lips close to Lara's mouth. "Lie down and clasp your arms about this stump. Hang on for dear life." He could lie down by be side when he looked toward woods they had left a short white before. His hair almost stood to ends. His eyes became wild. He looked in his direction and muttered one heart to sparing word. "Daday." Ummindulfui of the danger when threatened him. Colonel Laurent woods, taking a stop or two by the woods, taking a stop or two by the blown back as he struggled in the grip of the storm, how his down-fell hands finally trying to bear his hands were flying as if in defiance of the elements that raged about him. There was a wild look on his hands, making him struggle, his hands completely gone. As Truman looked at the old man moly in his heart at the sight, he noed that there was a stump not yet cut in the head, which if he could get the old man his life would be saved. To shoot a warning would not suffice since a human voice could carry above the head which had reached almost the height of its fury by this time. He could not be to think of the old man's death, crushed among the fallen tree trunks and other debris. Colonel Laurentius had now grasped a beating sapling and was hanging on the tree trunk. He had Lida and shouted, "Let get it Hold on. I'll save him." As he released his grip on the stump he was blown so rapidly the stump was moving along the path of the old man. Like a grass crossing a swiftly flowing grass tracking at an angle to reach the stump, he was moving along each stump, where he roasted all regained his breath, he passed to select another anchor toward which he would be blown and cling to. He was moving along his way so that he was knotted against it with such force as to be scared. He made another anchor and time was carried to the edge of the woods and to Colonel Laurisilas, who had been trying to stand to the wind. His hair was blowing straight back from his head, sand slashing his face and bringing tears to his eyes. He was Bennet reasoned that, since the wind was blowing across the woods, he would be fairly safe if he could measure the distance accurately and to gauge the angle at which he would have to be carried by the stump he wanted to reach after he had fallen. He hand he stepped out and both were born to the trunk of the tree. Colonel Lauriston lost his balance in the struggle and was half dressed. Beaten giving to his hand. Throwing the elder man to the ground, he fell prostrate across his body and grasped the sump hose. He locked his legs in a seissors glove about the elder man's body. He was not a moment too soon for the sump hose, and he next minute, the rear was desiring. Sand and dirt blew in blinding gusts. Truman felt his body lifted and he seemed he was breathless.

HARLEM COURT PARTS LAD AND ITALIAN WIFE She's Only 16, Rules Judge, And Must Remain Under Dad's Supervision GIRL SHOWS COURAGE Says She Loves Hubby, And Won't Go Home To Be Killed Brooklyn, N. Y. (Afro Bureau)—"I will not go back home and forsake my husband, I am very happy with him. He is very kind to me. No matter what may happen, I will remain true, for I love him and he has shown that he loves me," cried Grace Richio Dorsey, very pretty Italian girl of 16, as her husband, Bertram Dorsey, colored, was led from the court room to Ray- mond street jail. Dorssey was arrested and brought to trial on the charge of abduction based on the fact that he had taken the Richio girl, who is under 18 years of age, out of the State and married her without the consent of her parents. It was a tense moment Thursday before County Judge George W. Martin when the girl upbraided her father, Antoni Richio for his efforts to nullify the marriage and bring his daughter back home with her family, who lived at 130 Marlion street. "Why should I go home," the girl protested, "to be killed." The all while Dorssey, very light in complexion, stood quiet. A fine dress. Danger looked admiringly on his young white wife as she showed allegiance to him, regardless to any action that may be taken to Dorsey was before Judge Martin on an indictment charging him with abduction of the Richie girl, Married, had been located living as man and wife at 1402 Springwood avenue, Aubury Park, N. J. where Dorsey was in custody. Dorsey was allowed to plead to a charge of assault in the third degree. Dorsey are married," said Judge Martin, after the pedigree of Dorsey had been taken, "and in the face of the girl's determined loyalty to her husband and to her husband and to her. I did it difficult to reach a decision on this criminal charge. I will have a thorough investigation made of the matter." When the judge asked Assistant District Attorney William F. X. Geoghan, with the position, the latter responded, "This girl is only 16 years of age, and, under the law, supervision of her welfare remains with and under the supervision of there is nothing we can do here to disturb this supervision. In the eyes of the law, the girls is still a child and complete supervision of her parents." According to the fact submitted to the District Attorney, the Richie girl who was employed as a telephone operator, disappeared from her apartment, and was later found in lowling, her and Dorssey were married in Jersey City, and then went to live in Asbury Park. In answer to questions, the father admitted he knew that Dorssey had gone out with his wife, and that he was prior to their disappearance in May. He said he never thought that any deep feeling of friendship existed between them. With tears in their eyes the girl was taken to the Children's Society and Dorssey to the Raymond street fall, pending an investigation.

BRYANT HITS AT BISHOPS AGAIN Nashville, Tenn. — Designating three bishops of the A. M. E. Church as grafters and money getters, Ira T. Bryant, secretary of the A. M. E. Sunday School Union, has made serious charges against the bishops of the Church in his paper, the Young Allenite. Speaking of one district in the South where a bishop has accepted donations from pastors, Bryant declares: "Every layman of Texas and the Connection read a book and showed resolutions. Listen to it: 'We hereby reserve the right to ourselves to make gifts and donations to whoever we please,' etc. Are not those the words of brave "Who has ever challenged their right to give money to a crooked man to their wives and children to cover their nakedness? The Young Allenite's quarrel is because of the fall of the church, and their gifts to the very terms of their resolutions. Certainly, they have the right to give THIBP money as a reward for their service to anyone else, but they have no right to ASSESS MEMBERS of the CHURCH and then send them to an unscrupulous set of grafters with power, money collected supposedly for the spreading of the religion of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the unscrupulous history of the church as much of this brand of thievery as there is today, and the Allenite means to expose these details and open the eyes of laymen. "The wall of the henchmen of these sinners about 'hurting the church' shall serve only to intensify the fight. The truth is, the A. M. E. Church must throw off this rottenness if it would check its present downward tendency. A majority on the Bench of Bishops, without the least warrant of law, have brazenly and boldly arrogated to themselves a Monarchial authority and power which they use to great advantage in robbing the laymen. Our Theological Seminaries are practically empty because intelligent young men are not willing to risk their futures with these hungry-dog task masters. Paradoxical as it may seem, membership grows smaller, but taxations grow heavier." "God only knows how much of the money raised in our church for education and other purposes is stolen by certain Bishops and their weaklings. With possibly two exceptions. (and Paul Quinn is not one of them), there is not ten cents' worth of real honest-to-goodness methods in the management and disbursements of funds in our schools. But Johnson is not the only rascal, who, while assuming the role of 'angel,' conspires with certain puppets to 'put over' certain 'big steals' as donations, anniversaries, homecomings, etc." Grand Boulevard Replaces State St Chicago, (A.

Saturday, February 7 FEDERAL COUNCIL HAS RACIAL CREED Church Commission Speaks Out Against Lynchings, Discrimination And Injustice Cooperation Between Various Denominations Is Aimed At A new social creed for churches calling for legislation against lynchings, the elimination of discrimination and removal of color, creed or racial barriers in religious practice, was set forth by the recent meeting of the Federal Council of Churches, held in Atlanta. The social creed of the churches is an attempt to point out certain consequences which would for our social life if we were to take Jesus in earnest and make His social and spiritual ideals our test for community as well as for individual Abolish Discrimination "4. Into racial relations means: (a) The same protection and order for older males in America that we would enjoy, especially legislation against lynching. (b) Eliminating racial discrimination and substituting full brotherly treatment for all races in America. (c) The fullest cooperation between the churches of various races, even though of different denominations. (d) Special educational and social equipment for immigrants, with government bureaucats. "5. Into international relations means: (a) The removal of every unjust barrier of trade, color, creed and race, and the practice of equal justice for all nations. (b) The that old nation's society and secret treason are today unnecessary and unChristian. (c) That all nations should associate themselves permanently for world peace and good will, that war be avoided, and that differences between nations should be settled in an international court. (d) That any dishonest imperialist is required to be replaced by such genuine dishonestness in the movement of backward nations as to conquer them, and of all the world.

You have merely gone to the grave, and to the normal peace which mortals cannot conceive. The real You lives on. It survives in the minds and hearts of all those who knew you. All of the qualities that made you noble are still of earth, in that they are cherished by those to whom you were born. All of the little faults have been forgotten—obliterated by the greater quantity and quality of your virtues. In life you were self-sacrificing, have journeyed on beyond our call, we see more clearly the many angles of your worth. Things seem to be so ordered that other-appreciation is a matter of perspective. No, you are not dead, Mother Mine.

PREFERS FREEDMENS TO PROVIDENT Is the Provident Hospital on Biddle street for the four hundred only? Two years ago a lady was taken sick around 4 a.m. No drug store was open, so she went to the Provident Hospital and they refused her saving no doctor was there. What kind of place is that? Last year a friend of mine was cut badly, so he went to Provident and they told him that they only give first aid. He asked for that and they told him they could do nothing for him unless he got an officer. Passing auto stopped and took the man to the Maryland General Hospital. As soon as he entered the doctor and nurse were there to fix him up. Provident was in need and a dollar would do them any good they would be of luck, not only from me but from hundreds of others.

EUTAW STREET Phone VERNON 5706 WIFE SEEKS HUSBAND Mother Seeks Boy Man Seeks Wife Morgan Summer School We shall digress a little this week in order to discuss the sport that presents itself at the present time in our fair city. We shall deal with the more strenuous winter sport, gymnastics, gymnast exercise such as pool, cross word puzzles and whist. We shall digress a little this week in our Athletic situation that presents itself at the present time in our room. We shall deal with the more strenuous winter sports that require great exertion such as poaching a word puzzles and whist. It may be asked we must include the many art of self defense. We explain thusly: We are not writing for the benefit of married couples only and a few exceptions sport is contained in word circles. Of course we do not mean to imply that all married folks use their lists, no indeed, women have become more skilled with rolling pins and fire arms bruise their lists on their husbands. Let us consider basket ball. We saw a local team of girls stage a game last week that made an Indian massacre look like a School plicie. One spectator started limping from just standing on the side lines. Speaking of basketball, we met a finale hopper so dumb, he thought a stationary CUARD was the bird who watched the club's writing paper. We will discuss bowling "then and now." We don't know much about it now and we weren't sure about its implications for discussing such an important subject. Well here goes, bowling was bought into print, when Rip Van Winkle put that story over on Mrs. Winkle. And the story just about it, was he got away with it. But then maybe Rip did sleep a hundred years, if you were to get tapped beside the head with a flying ten pin in the mouth, fancy just Alley, make Rip's sleep look like a wink of the eye, by comparison. Some folks' bowling experience is limited to a bowl of soup. The only exercise they get is lifting an overflowing ball. We know that the latter should come under the head of music, therefore we beg your pardon. We cautiously approach cross word puzzles, we then considered as exercise for the Brain. But by the time a man figure out how to raise his rent and pay his grocer bill his brain has had about all the exercise it needs. One husband thought cross word puzzles meant trying to tie his wife's suit when he came home in time to meet the milk man one morning. Athletes some times cause trouble. We know that a drug store cow boy gave his "Frill the air on that account. He said every time he went to see her, she was raving about some named Gym.
