C.-Perry W. Howard and Henry Lincoln Johnson, members of the Republican National Committee for Mississippi and Georgia, respectively, are functioning as such in every sense of the word. They are in full charge of patronage matters in their respective states. Appointments to Federal offices in Mississippi and Georgia are made upon their recommendations. The lists of eligibility for their states are referred to them by the Post Office Department. They make a selection and notify the First Assistant Postmaster General of their choice. In addition, the person selected by them is appointed. In the executive nominations received by the Senate last Thursday there were 57 nominations of persons to be the Senate's nominees of them received their appointments upon the recommendation of Mr. Howard.

They are working in harmony with their State organizations and an applicant for a Federal appointment must receive the endorsments of the State organization before the national committee will recommend his appointment.

A Jefferson City, Mo.—Silas Harris, president of the Negro National Educational Congress, created excitement in the State Legislature last week when he read a petition urging a square deal for Negroes. In the resolution said: "Negroes are railroaded to the pententiary for the commission of the most trivial offenses, and oftimes upon the climestr pretexts Negroes are denied the right to sit upon Juries, state and federal, i. e. they are seldom drawn, and when drawn, excused. Negroes constitute nearly fifty per cent of the inmates of the Missouri pententiary, yet they are only about ten per cent of the population of the state. "Negro rural schools are, for a lack of proper housing, adequate equipment, ability of the teaching force, supervision and a miserable asset to this great commonwealth. "The Negro state university is only a name and nothing more than a gift to their children a higher education, are forced to send them to other states to be educated, and this too, is a sacrifice of the life and deprivation of the actual necessities of life. "Without the aid of the Negro state not the politics of the major to participate in the Missouri could it trump the poles, yet in gratitude appreciation for this support.

CHICAGO SPLIT BY BITTEREST WARD FIGHT Backs Williamses Who Also Have Lined Up Southern Migrants BY HENRY F. ARNOLD Chicago, Ill.—A political situation that is unique in the annals of the history of the city is prevalent here. A sectional fight is what it is termed. Louis B. Anderson and Robert Jackson, natives of this city on the one side; Dr. R. A. Williams, one of the wealthiest men of the State of Arkansas, who came to Chicago less than a decade ago, backed by Oscar DePreist) and A. L. Williams, another wealthy man whose names have brought every Southern man and woman on their band wagon. Controlled For Years For years Jackson and Anderson have controlled the political end of the black belt of Chicago. Louis B. Anderson, alderman of the second ward, has been the idol of the black belt of Chicago. Robert Jackson, alderman of the third ward, has occupied a similar position. Migration of the Negro to this city, which brought men of influence and wealth, brought about a sudden change. The Southerner is in majority from a numerical and physical change. This gives them the edge in politics. Two Williamses When the two Williams decided to run for alderman with the backing of Oscar De Priest, those who are leading the Jackson-Anderson campaign are in the sectional argument. This excited the irs of the sons and daughters from Dixie. It is said that every son and daughter has a pocket, and that the two Williams have plenty of finance. If this is true, the Williams are sure to win. Charges and countercharges are being made against Jackson and Anderson in the Negroes in Chicago hold Jackson and Anderson responsible for the streets being kept in a bad condition in the city, and we cannot believe that Anderson can be beaten in the second ward. It is the consensus of opinion that Dr. R. A. Williams will lead Bob Jackson by a vote of two to three. Dr. B. A. Williams is sure to win, because he has the combined backing of the Southern Negro and the African American main object is to detrieve Jackson in order to save his scalp, it is said by those who are on the inside. Old timers say that it is a fight for leadership between Jackson and De Controls Two Wards If Jackson wins he will control both the second and third wards. Day and night meetings are being held, and odds favoring the two Williams, who seem to have lots of finance at their command. The old ring in Chicago seems done, and the writer is his wife of odd order of things. No man in Chicago is receiving more lashing from the tongues of his fellow citizens. There must be a radical change in Jackson. He joined and February 24th, if Jackson wins.

TRUSTEES SURE TO BACK HEAD OF FISK UNIV. Nashville, Tenn. (A. N. P.)—If the word of L. Hollingsworth Wood, vicepresident of the board of trustees of Fisk University, is to be taken at its face value, the trustees of the institution are a unit in support of President Fayette McKenzie and his side of the controversy which has split the This statement was made to 87 students in the room of Living-Hall this week. Several hundred students have left the university and others are merely awaiting the receipt of the certificate. Only one-third of the tables in the dining room were filled as Mr. Wood expressed the conviction of the trustees to the students. Wood, who is also one of the leading officials of the National Urban League, declared that every action of McKenzie received endorsement. Questioned as to the propriety of calling in police to club the students, the board's vice-president was emphatic in asserting that only students have taken when the students rebelled. The students who have broken loose from the university and elsewhere, were desecured in scathing statements issued to the press by Dr. W. Sumlin, well known physician representing the minority, called the students certain colored members of the faculty "traitorous." Dr. Sumlin declares that the whole situation at Fisk is this: "A group of lawless, self-important and more or less vicious students object to obeying the rules and regulations. The students are set forth plainly in the catalog, want to commit acts of impropriety, such as they have been brazenly committing since the recent walkout. The straint, want to sit around under the trees on the grounds hugging as they were doing on Saturday, they are afterward thrown on their so-called honor; want to be free to wear skirts split almost to their waist, exposing their nakedness as was seen on Monday last."

EXTRA SECOND PHILLY BANK CLOSED SATURDAY Cosmopolitan State Bank Uptown Had $38,000 In Brown And Stevens Institution Has 3,000 Depositors And Liabilities Of $112,000 Philadelphia P.a.,—State Banking examiners on Saturday closed the Cosmopolitan State Bank, Ridge avenue Master street, when it discovered it had $38,000 deposited with the private bank of Brown and Stevens, Broad and Lombard streets, which went into the receiver's hands last Monday. Cosmopolitan State Bank has 3000 depositors with liabilities said to amount to more than $112,000. E. C. Brown, of Brown, of Brown and Stevens, is also president of the Cosmopolitan Bank. George W. Brown, Jr., chief State bank examiner, receiver of the Cosmopolitan Bank, declared himself unable to make any definite report of conditions for at least two weeks. This is said to be due to the fact that Brown and Stevens is a private firm which under the State banking of 1011 was exes. This law exempted all private institutions from examination by State officials which had been in existence seven years prior to 1911 and were able to carry a deposit of $100,000 with the State department of banking in Harrisburg. Within the Law The chief bank examiner explained that the placing of funds with the private firm of Brown and Stevens was not fraudulent but showed poor judgment on the part of the directors of the Cosmopolitan Bank. It was an unusual procedure, he said, for the president of the bank to make large deposits in another bank of which he as a partner. Officers of the Cosmopolitan Bank are listed as E. C. Brown, president: A. F. Stevens, George G. Strelkland, and I. M. Lawrence, president; and the other member of the firm of Brown and Stevens. He denied the two institutions intermingled, except that both banks are headed by Brown. Prepared for Run on Funds "We were in good shape," said Vaughan, the cashier, "until our patrons learned that we had about $38,000 with the Brown and Stevens banks and drewals followed and we prepared to lift a deposit of $60,000 from a trust company. But the bank examiners demanded that we raise the sum due to them. This we were unable to do mainly because the funds of our directors are tied up in real estate. We closed their doors, we would have had no difficulties whatever. The stockholders may lose heavily, but if at any time in the future the bank would back the amount we have with them, no person connected with our bank will suffer. Brown and Stevens own more than half the stock in the Cosmopolitan Bank. Aid For Depositors L. B. Moore, B. G. Collier, Grand Chancellor, of the Knights of Pythagoras, and the Mitchells are backing an emergency fund in order to aid depositors of the Brown and Stevens Bank who might suffer because their savings are not enough to raise a sum of at least $15,000. There are a number of other persons who have put up books of those who hold deposits in Brown and Stevens Bank, for which they are paying as high as 75 to 80 percent of their business when they ripped their funds with the two banks are temporarily embarrassed. A dozen bank examiners were put to work in the aid in the auditing of the books.

BLAMED FOR WHITE OFFICERS New Yorkers Raises Cry Of "On To Washington" Instead Of "On To Albany." GUARD NOW FEDERALIZED Only War Department Has Right To Replace 369th Of Ficers With Negroes New York.—“On to Washington” and not “On to Albany,” is the slogan urged by W. T. R. Richardson, on 108 E. 138th street, lecture, in a meeting at the National Association for the Advancement of the Colored People, in which he demanded action by the Federal administration in the matter of appointing colored officers for the 369th Regiment. It is not within the power of Governor Smith nor Col. Charles E. Berry, according to Richardson, to appoint colored officers, owing to the fact that the 36th was “federaliized,” that is, taken over by U. S. War Department. “It is very important to know and to remember,” said Richardson, “that the U. S. War Department is operating at this time under President Calvin Cool-lage, and is under Republican control.” Richardson's address was, in effect, a vigorous denunciation of Republican politicians, both in Federal and State governments. Sulzer and the late Charles E. Murphy, Order of Tammmy Hall, supported the formation of a 100 per cent colored regiment, Richardson said: Opposed by Republicans as the National Republican as the last Charles K. E. Harris and Tammany Hall colored prison officer by colored men, just as clinically has every Republican. Republican legislature, within their powers, opposed in every context to such a regiment. He continued as follows: the hereditary efforts of Tammany Hall to give the colored people a genuine colored prison party; those being made at this time deceitful charges to the effect that they are within the power of American presidents, such a regiment. **Washington** I emphatically deny that it is withholding of Col.

DISSENTING STANDARD LIFE OFFICIALS JOIN NATIONAL BENEFIT LIFE INSURANCE STAFF President Rutherford of National Benefit Emphasises the Lesson of Standard Life WASHINGTON COMPANY HAS BIGGEST YEAR IN HISTORY 1924 FIGURES ATTEST Call VErnon 6017 R. H. RUTHERFORD PETER H. President, The National Benefit Life Insurance Company --- Several of the well known executives who resigned from Standard Life when that company was taken over by the Southern Life Insurance Company, Nashville, Tenn., recently, are taking responsible places with the Washington representative of Negro Business, according to President Rutherford when interviewed by a reporter from THE AFRO-AMERICAN yesterday. One of these is, Mr. J. R. Pinkett, who was Agency Director of Standard Life, and who becomes head of the Ordinary Department of National Benefit. Mr. Rutherford expressed great satisfaction at the acquisition of Mr. Pinkett, declaring that he was the very man they had been looking for to carry on the growing responsibilities of the direction of this important division of their work. "Our Ordinary Life department is on the way to big things, writing over $2,000,000 in new business in 1924," said Mr. Rutherford, "although it is comparatively a new line for us, our major efforts having been directed along other lines until more or less recently. A big man is needed to put through our plans for its active development, Mr. Pinkett is just the man." Another Standard Life executive to join National Benefit is Mr. Charles A. Anawan, a man of Home Office Personnel and Chief of the Claim Department, Mr. Shaw is well known in insurance circles and brings to his new field a decisive grasp of its very trying problems. A number of the branch managers and some of the most successful field executives are also enlisting under the National Benefit banner. After stating his secret that Standard Life has been recently lost to the Race, Mr. Rutherford observed that there was some consolation to be found, so far as his company, concerned with the development of these men had proven their capacity with Standard Life to give that capacity still in the interest of the development of the company. And he pointed out that the Race as a whole was to be felicitated in that the services of these able men were devoted to the purpose. "Without casting any reflection upon the present control of Standard Life," said Mr. Rutherford, "it is my own opinion that we should white insurance company, competing for Negro business with Negro companies, and a Negro company, will not work along the lines of interest between the two groups would appear very close to an impossibility. The combination must assume one complexion or the other. The difference in interest is that data of the group in control—no matter how fair this group of white men may want to be, it is my conviction that the Standard Life company should subordinate relation. Negro business remaining in it, and new Negro business going to it, will help to swell the coffers of the dominant interest, which is white to Negro. This would mean a loss to the As to the eventful effect of the seeming loss of Standard Life upon the M.Rutherford declared that if the situation should result in a more general "pulling together" on the part of the M.Rutherford would result, "Juddee", Mr. Rutherford continued, "the lesson taught by this calamity will turn calamity into a lesson of the control of Standard Life is a further insertion of the thin edge of the wedge of white control of Negro companies, again the control of Southern life, again through the apparent aid of this same management of Standard Life. This company, and other large Negro companies life for the Jace, offering to take it over on most advantageous terms. We failed to win our light, we failed to win our light, we failed to teach us as a Race to maintain our race solidarity against outside encroachment and possible exploitation, they will have done more "And," Mr. Rutherford went on, "the thing is not over by any means. We need to embrace our encroachments will not be attempted. Now that Negro-operated business have grown to a stage in which we are deriving from them are worth while, they are becoming increasingly interesting to white capitalists. Nothing is to be gained by criticizing our white business for making money quickly and easily." "But we can and should severely criticise ourselves if we allow what we have done to hard work and even harder sacrifice to be plucked from us without putting up an intelligent defense. But," and Mr. Merford heamed himself, "we are out on the highways and bye-way howling 'calamity!' are howling much too soon, and had better go home and engage in the work we have lost Standard Life, as seems to be the case, the remedy is in our own hands. The Race has handed us the power we have equally brilliant. Her diadem is scarcely dimmed. We can hold what we have and add to it by giving our business to these institutions in the hands of a legion of Negro men and women all over the country, not in that of a special group. Their prowess is distributed. Both factors make up a very important asset of the economic life of the Race. By supporting these institutions, doing business in the United States, building businesses with ourselves. And in using the force of race solidarity to promote the success and the continued growth of our country, we are using the only force which is pe Page Three cullarily ours and which, if used, cannot be crushed or defeated. If we prefer to do business, other things be better. We are operated by men and women of our own heritage, which offer the only outlets for the rescue of our children and our children in independent occupations, who can criticise us? In this there is no infringement upon the rights of our white fellow citizens, who are the white opinion is just as sure as we are that it is for the good of the Nation, without respect to race, that the Negro attain economic independence in room for a subtest race in republican We have no quarrel with our white competitors in business. Our business structure is a part of the commercial structure of the Nation and not a thing apart. We recognize this, of course. But everything else being equal, no one can object to our using as a Race the resources which are ours in the furtherance of our racial interests. In the matter of insurance, for instance, it would in the long run have little or no effect upon white insurance companies if Negro business as a whole went to Negro-operated companies of responsible character. Why, therefore, should the Negro take out a policy in any company other than a good Negro company? Every time he takes out a policy in a good Negro company, he benefits and protects not only himself and his family but he advances the interests of his entire Race. If our people will act on this principle, Negro commercial progress is safe. The failure of individual institutions, however important, cannot greatly hamper it. Incomplete figures for 1924 show that the National Benefit's own affairs are in a highly graftying condition. The National Benefit considers considerable additions when the complete returns are complied. Complaints to date show a total income for 1924 of over $1,680,000, and Mr. Lutherford estimated that the total income was $1,700,000. Insurance in force on December 31, 1924 amounted to $31,652,730. Since that date the amount has risen to $38,000,000 in round numbers. The report of the Secretary-President notes the increase in the National Capital Stock, and Surplus of $195,257,810. The company greatly increased its operating territory during 1975. The company moved to 300 acres. Twelve additional States were placed in active operation, thirty-five new branches opened. The company compiled a number of district offices was increased to 88. And the expansion program was extended to South Carolina. Oklahoma was added to the roster, and Georgia will be included next month. The company was opened in South Carolina. Oklahoma was added to the roster, and Georgia will be included next month. The company was opened in Colorado and Nebraska. And this growth is entirely along the lines of safe domain and safety keeping pace with the other aspects of the comparing development, as shown by the fact that the percentage increase of income in 1975 Mr. Rutherford gives the credit for this fine record of achievement during the year 1924 to two factors: (a) support of the Race and the fine loyalty, energy and ability of the National Benefit staff in office and field. (b) No body of men and women ever made a higher record of service to their organization and their race, than did our corps last year. If I were to single out any of them for special mention, I would not only need an extra column or two of space, but do those not mentioned an Injustice," declared Mr. Rutherford in commenting on the things accomplished. "In the Baltimore territory, we had two able District Managers, Messrs. Wilson and Matthews, with Mr. M. Brooks, assistant to Mr. Wilson. These men rendered an excellent account of their stewardship. Mr. W. E. Brown, at Salisbury, did excellent work, too. In Virginia, Mr. W. J. Hill, Alexandra, and his assistant Mr. E. H. Hall; Mr. N. F. Roberts, Charbattesville, and his assistant, Mr. S. H. White; Mr. W. J. Watts, Danville, and Mr. W. O. Ferguson, Assistant; Mr. Jackson Glaze, Farmville, with Mr. S. E. West, Assistant; Mr. A. D. Wheeler, Lynchburg, and Mr. C. E. Johnson, Assistant; Mr. C. H. Llewellyn, Norfolk, and Messrs. W. C. Brown and R. H. Harris, Assistants; and Mr. C. W. Le Grand, Raleigh, with Mr. K. W. Allen, Assistant; all did remarkable work." "Our chief executive among the field forces, Mr. C. B. King, Agent Directive States, with his coordinators, Mr. K. E. Bright and Mr. H. A. Collins, and their energetic district managers and agent in the Superintendent, Mr. M. Sleet, Mr. W. F. Coleman, in charge of Pennsylvania, Delaware and New York, and from president of Michigan, Ohio, Missouri and Kansas and his efficient staff; Mr. L. C. Brown, Organizer-in-chief; all did big things for the cause. From president to messenger, and to throw in an extra lick or two at times to keep up with the pace. Mr. Lutherford said, small little credit, too, in short, everybody worked intelligently and hard, for a common end—that's the story." And on this occasion Mr. Lutherford terminated all credit and a good health to the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, an upstairs witness of the agency's own witness in the Twenty-six consecutive years of growth under the original management speak eloquently for its pugnance. May it go on to even bigger things. Texas Pastor On Visit Here Rev. J. M. Johnson, pastor of Metropolitan M. A. E.

LITTLE THEATRE WOULD HELP DEVELOP NEGRO TALENT Page Four LITTLE "LITTLE" STAGEWOULD DEVELOP ARTISTS Amateur Groups Beneficial To Actors, Playwrights, And The Community COST IS NOMINAL Baltimore Behind Other Cities In Sponsoring Serious Amateur Productions Roughly estimated there are about 1000 little theatres in the United States that are showing excellent results in presenting plays for the instruction of its members and patrons. From the ranks of these amateurs some of the former stars of the dramatic stage, to say nothing of the playrights, have graduated. Splendid Records Made Figures are not available which tell the number of amateur players waging and performing in their own theatres outside the college groups. Though small those established and controlled by students have established a record that could profitably duplicated by similar groups outside the schools and col- College Players Howard University, Hampton Tuskegee and other institutions for Negro youths have produced and constructed the scenery for many creditable productions. Roughly estimated there are about 1000 little theaters in the United States that are showing excellent plays in presenting plays for the instruction of its members and patrons. No Playhouse Here Sorious attempts at playmaking and acting have never been attempted to any great extent by the amateurs of Baltimore, though there is, undoubtedly, among the population of the city those who could successfully "put the movement over." Cost is Trifling The cost of financing little theatre is in general as nothing when compared with the artistic benefit to be derived from them. Plays may be rented, or better still, may be written by the members for themselves, thus serving a two-fold purpose. Serious consideration of the establishment of one or more of these groups of amateurs is worthy the thought of those who have the artistic good of their fellow-townsmen at heart. FAIR ASSOCIATION MEETS NEXT WEEK Call for the annual meeting February 20, 21 has been mailed to more than 200 members of the National Negro Business Man's League and National Negro Farmers' Association Sessions will be held at Ballue's Park, in Norfolk, Va.

HAYES THRILLED BY CALIFORNIA CLIMATE By L. S. Hart Los Angeles, Cal. (By Telegram) ~Roland Hayes thrilled thousands at his concert here at the Philharmonic Auditorium. Applause was magnificent, continuing even into the night. The tenor's German group was excellent, French songs charming, and his Spirituals swayed everyone of his auditors. As a climax Mr. Hayes obliged with a selection from the music. He was also asked to respond to the humorous requests asked of him. William Law- rence the accompanist, was excel- ent as usual in support. Dr. Herbert Fulrs, Clarence Bartone, John Bacone, barbone, met Mr. Hayes when he arrived here. The artist was en- thusiastic over the weather. STAR Dusty Murray's "Hollywood Revue" Company of 12 people present a bill equal to the best of T. O. B. A. attractions showing here this season. The opening is an animated number with the choristers "dolled," as they are throughout the entire show, in costumes that are tastefully chosen. Murray, and Charley Smith, a good team of koniks, evoked laughs in every "bite" in the applause. Cereale Lorraine did a solo dancing routine that "hit." Gladys Kirkland mooned some minors that made her decidedly popular with the customers Monday sang "Sally," and was rewarded by a generous amount of hands. Edith Wood, Lillian Hayes, Gertrude McCoy, and Viola Guset are the choristers. Johnny Murray is the song that applaced Johnny Murray, son brette and Ralph Dawson, character man.

THEATRE TRE WO MINISTER'S DAUGHTER WITH "RUNNIN' WILD" Miss Mamie Moon Tells 'Afro · Readers Secret Of Preserving Beauty STUDIED AT MORGAN Has Cultivated Contralto · Voice And Has Taught Romance Languages At Wiley Miss Mamie Moon, who so bewitchingly sang "Old Fashioned Love" in "Ramin' Wild" at Powell's Theatre last week, is a graduate of Morgan College, this city, and also of Syracuse University. This artist possesses an exquisite contralto voice that was developed under the tutelage of Estelle Wentworth, of Washington, D. C., and Frank La Forge, of New York City. The singer has toured all of the Eastern States as a concert singer. Taught Romance Languages The ability to sing is by no means the only accomplishment of the artist, for during 1924 she held the chair of romance languages at Wiley University, Marshall, Texas. The lady is best described as having a "Havana Brown" accent, and this, girls is her formula for retaining it in all its beauty. Tells Beauty Secrets Miss Moon goes to bed punctually at 12:30. Arises at 10:30 and breakfasts on a light meal of toast and coffee about 11 or 12. The dinner prompts at six and occasionally eats an apple before retiring.

DUD'S DOPE I have just returned from the meeting of the T. O. B. A. directors at Cincinnati. Of course, I was there to place a few things before the directors concerning the Colored Actors' Union, but we had so much concerning the circuit to debate upon that it was impossible for me to get to the actor's side, but I am the minder of the relationship between the Union and the Circuit managers. Therefore; we will have a union directors' meeting in March and have both the president and the manager of the T. O. B. A. present, where we together and I am sure by so doing we will get the necessary results, for there are a lot of things that must be done to improve colored show business, and as both the circuit and the union are working in that one direction we should not find any difficulty in working out a problem that is now holding us back. The Colored Actors' Union will hold their first directors' meeting in Chicago, Ill., in March. The date has not as yet been set, but I am sure the meeting will take place. I am now waiting to hear from the president of the union what week meets with his approval. UNCLE, DUD. ACTOR:PUGILIST A story came to us from a local theatre about the male member of a mixed team that played the town last week who is fast establishing a reputation as a cave-man. Dressing works are his chosen places for administering thrushings to his better half. This "Killer's" unsavory reputation is known over the whole circuit. A little application of the hat and a go with Kid Norfolk. Flowers are his chosen place, would be more in keeping with this actor's prowess than the indefensible little woman that he has picked out as his punching bag. The name of this many gentlemen was out of consideration for his life. A reptation of these tactics will force us to give him an "arling." Manager Dismissed The charge brought by Alderman Robert Jackson of Chicago against Swayze, formerly assistant manager of the Ford Foundation theatre of that city was dismissed by Municipal Judge Heap. The charge made against Swayze was notting to riot and grew out of the inability to obtain a "A Nation" more than a year ago.

This is one of the questions asked, and dramatically answered, in "Neglected Women," the Ideal Films production coming to the Roosevelt Theatre on next Monday and Tuesday. Both these men are in love with the same girl and, in a fit of pique she marries the one she doesn't love. Later, after love for her husband comes to her, the other man, chiefly because he is her husband's friend, still retains a hold on her affections and he uses the hold to invigorate her into giving him information about her husband's affairs which he uses his detriment. When the source of her information comes out, the seed of felousity is soon in the husband's mind and when the two men meet—it is as the longing and the climax that follows it has a surprise kickoff it that will delight every movie fan. A splendid cast enact the various roles in the picture. Headed by Seena Owen it includes the following favorites: Thurston Hall, Lawford Davidson, Eva Moore, Cameron Carr and Joan Morgan.

Tyler Talks George Tyler, one of the most intelligent theatregoers in the city, wrote a much appreciated letter, full of sympathy with the trials of a reviewer of shows. Mr. Tyler says that we do not "lash" the thespians appearing here enough. The writer also deplores the lack of training in creating the vehicle used by a company illining an engagement at a theatre here this week. He says in part: "It was not musical enough for musical comedy, or classique enough to be called drama." Closing Tyler patronizingly says: "The good good, he is kept in FEAR by both the profession and public, he is trying to please all." So that's that. American Dark The American Theatre in the 1900 block of Pennsylvania avenue, has closed its doors. It is said by those insulting it in the television slashing "war that has been engaged in between Mr. Rosen, the owner and rival houses in the neighborhood, caused the closing of the house." This is the fourth house showing to colored patronage to become dark during this season. Foxworth Injured An injury to Foxworth of the vaudeville team of Foxworth and Francis, compelled the act to cancel the first three days of last week at the Willis, New York. A slip on the ice badly incarcerated the actor's face obliging him to have several stitches taken in the cuts. with VIRGINIA VALLI WALLACE BEERY and ROCKLIFF FELLOWS You will see the crash of giant locomotives, the hurting through space of an entire train, and the breath-taking fight between two big men alone in the signal wagon. The most appealing love stories of the year—in which Virginia Vall reaches new heights of artistic and appealing character portrayal! New York—And now it is Gus Hill, who follows Jimmy Cooper, and Hurlug and Seamon with a colored show for the Columbia Wheel. "Aunt Hagar's Chillun" written by Lieutenant Tim Brymnn and Jessie Shipp are doing the piece. The production will not be of the revue type now so much in vogue, but will be constructed along the lines of the former Williams-Walker, Cole and Johnson successes of former years. The engagement of the veteran Shipp who was responsible for the books of the Williams-Walker combination and of the capable Tim Brymnn who was also a collaborator with others in writing the number of successes assures a friendable vehicle. A jazz choir and chorus will be engaged and be trained and directed by Brymnn. An innovation will be the placing of the choir in the orchestra pit, the singers to form a combination that will work in conjunction with both the orchestra and the piano, to be introduced is said to be a southern feature that has not been seen in the north. No opening date has been set, but April is believed will see the premise after the close of the regular Columbia season. Edna Wooley Lieurance, mezzo soprano, Thurlow Lieurance, composer-plainst, and Lillian Reed, flutist, presented a program of dramatized Indian folksongs to a large audience in Indian Hall, Hampton Forest, recently. There were 12 numbers listed, the most appealing were "Ghost Pipes," "Wium" and "By The Waters of Minnetonka." The artists appeared to advantage in their conciling, concluding number, a prayer, which revealed the singer in communicative mood, the "Bird And The Bobo," received a demand for an encore. The concert was held under the auspices of the Institute's Musical Arts Club of which Dr. Nathaniel Delt is director.

Call VErnon 6017 EGRO T REGENT Like the pitcher who knocks a home-run, winning his own game, Sammy Lewis, who heads a cast of 22 people at the Regent this week, stands by support to such an extent as to completely overshadow their efforts. There is a gem of an opening chorus which is both tuneful and well sung. There is also "King" Swazzy, who blows "nagle" notes from a trumpet, Louis Swazzy and a pianist succeeded admirably in entertaining with a speciality. Miss Vivian Russell (we understand, the wife of "Strawberry" Russell, the comic, who was obliged to leave the cast) is the prima donna of the aggregation. Her upper tones on Monday night, those of the company, are unsembled. No pretense has been made by Sammy Lewis of having a great show. But it is evident that the addition of a comedian and a semblance of a plot would strengthen the company 100 per cent. One swallow doesn't make a drunkard or a summer nor a few clever principals an entertaining performance, an art and popular he is no Atlas and should not attempt to carry the burden of entertaining of so large a company on his shoulders. The show is spotlessly clean. HAGERSTOWN THEATRE HAS MIXED CONTEST HAGERSTOWN THEATRE HAS MIXED CONTEST One of the best amateur shows ever staged in the State was put on at the Maryland Theatre, Hagerstown, Friday evening. Both races contested for the prizes. The Garland Wilson Trio ran away with the pigeon and offered a contesting number black and June Kuhn, white, in "A Bilt of the Bowery," finished strong in second place. Smith and Harris in "Hawaiian Melodies," romped home with the "show" money. The rest of the bill, all white, scored. A "Jubilee" contest, will be held next night, which is experted to draw equally as well as the amateurs.

The manager of the local house was told by representatives that the film which controlled the film had suffered a loss of $3000 since the publishing of the action taken by Mr. Hornstein. Retusal to play the films cost the film a sum of money for their release from the contract, but the say that the price is nothing compared with their intention to screen any picture that might be offensive to its patrons.

I. A. A. BREAKS RELATIONS WITH LINCOLN UNIVERSITY Basketball Then And Now Page Six --- LINCOLN IS "FIRED" FROM THE C. I. A. A. Lions Ousted For Agreement To Play Howard At Football Thanksgiving sociation Sits In At Meeting Richmond, Va.-The members of the C. I. A. A., including Union, Petersburg, Lincoln, Shaw, Virginia Seminary and College, St. Paul, A. and T. of Greensboro, N. C., and Hampton, met at the Virginia Union University to consider what action the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association should take in light of the decision of Lincoln University to play Howard University the annual football game on next Thanksgiving Day. After a thorough canvass of the entire situation, the Association adopted unanimously the following motion: "That the authorities of Lincoln University be informed that athletic relations between Lincoln University and members of the C. I. A. A. will discontinued so long as Lincoln continues to play Howard University and Howard remains out of the Association. Further, that this motion becomes effective from its adoption." The C. I. A. A. does not feel that this action is in any sense a coercive measure, but it does feel that to continue to maintain relations with Lincoln University, while Lincoln University continues relations with Howard University and Howard University has repudiated the Association and all that it stands for, would be inappropriate. The C. I. A. A. regrets the severance of relations with Howard and Lincoln, for, in the opinion of the Howard and Lincoln in the Association have done much to raise the standards of competition in the Association and to develop a greater appreciation for athletes on the part of of the Negro public. The graduate managers of athletics at Lincoln University, was present during the deliberations of the Association. I felt that the public should have much of the information in its possession in regard to the controversy. This will be relevant to the public in the very near future.

GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP The writer sat a new days ago among a group of them, then actively engaged in physical work, and all white save himself, when the discussion turned to baseball. One of the gentlemen made this mark. You now have noticed a wonderful change in basketball in the last two The writer sat a few days ago on amusement, all of them actively engaged in physical work, and all white save him hiding in the cushion turned to basketball. One of the gentlemen this remark to: "You know, we have not noticed a wonderful change in basketball in the past." Before that time it was well nigh impossible to send a team across town without the game ending in a fight and someone getting hurt. It was thought to himself that other folks as well as our own group have been facing the same problem which we face—poor sportsmanship. To overcome it, it has an important fact that the group game spirit does not develop early. Younger boys think only of self in their play, and their games for this period are not as good as they found this idea. It is true that some of our older athletes reflect this boy mind, in that they are willing to sacrifice the whole team, and to work out their own desires. A Team-work Game Basketball is a team-work game, the more team-work, the more points registered. The player who knows all the other team's fault had better watch himself. It may be that his views of the whole situation are colored by his own unwillingness to play hard and fast himself, he will rarely find time to criticise the other fellow's faults. Just as the forwards, the guards, and the players in the game, so does the referee. He is the judge and he alone. Of the players, the captain, and he alone, may appeal his case. This he will do, and wiling it be done in a courteous manner. It is not your place, as a player to decide that a foul has been made. In a man fouls you and gets away with it, play him that much harder. He won't get away with it all the time, but only one pair of eyes. It is to his advantage to call, every foul, for that is, what makes him a good referee. He will not be that he not a machine, with the help of Call VErnon 6016 BASKETBALL Jersey City, N.

PANTHERS DEFEAT LOENDI Philadelphia, Pa.—in one of the most exciting games of the season, the Philadelphia Fund Hall, the Panthers of Philadelphia defeated the Loendi Five of Pittsburgh, the Panthers of Pittsburgh, the shooting of Captain Campbell featured the fray. He netted five double deckers for the team, while Chambers and Vanytall four and five. automatically register every foul or violation, as they are made. It is a job in itself to referee, and the player who is referee play and referee the plays efficiently, in a class to himself. **Gullity of Walking** In the Morgan-American Legion game, as in some other games which I have seen, one player has been fouled by a Morgan player. Immediately before the referee called the foul, the player stopped and walked toward his goal to be awarded. He was then called the referee called the foul. Had he not seen it, however, which is very possible, the player would have seen it. Walking toward the ball you have done to have continued playing until the referee called the foul. In a game as fast as basketball, a player cannot divide his attention. Sometimes he had idea of the ball your team has the advantage, for he will soon be on the bench with four personal fouls to his crest. Sometimes it had idea of your opponent foul you, and then laugh at him. The psychology of the situation is in your favor, for he soon becomes disgusted and a fellow who is worried can't In worrying your opponent, let him do the fouling. For once you can get him to fouling you, you are master of the situation. Don't Make Allbis Now, if you have played the game the very best you can—clean, hard and fast, and you have lost, that is why they will never change the score. Be a good sport. Perhaps the referee missed a few. Pass it up. The public does not want to use the use. The game was decided in the other fellow's favor. Someone had to lose, and it happened to be you. Don't point at your team, but give them to win as badly as you. Just resolve to take the next game. Anyone can be happy when victorious, but the other team has won a game and offers alibis as to why the other team lost is not to be even dreamed of. But for the loser to accept his defenses, he must conquer his opponent in his playing, thanking the referee for what he did see, rather than damming him for what he did not see—this, genius. But in this sacrifice there is honor, the epitome of good sportsmanship, and there comes a personal satisfaction in realization that though you have lost, you have lost honorably. C'mon fellows. Let's be gracious winners and good losers.

BOWLING Rules Of The Game And How To Become An Expert By Charles A. Cromwell, Black Soz Umpire and Local Bowling Champion The first and most important points is the handling of the ball. You must palm the palm of the hand, look down at rack of pins, then take your eyes off of pins and look at the alley directly in front of you. Pick out a certain spot on the floor to the right move over to the left and visa versa, and in time you will know where to hit your ball on the alley to get results. Do not turn the wrists. There are some very good duck-pin rollers who throw a curve ball, but they are few, so be sure to cultivate this important point. The arm swings freely from the shoulders. Don't exert yourself by trying to throw a hard ball, but let the ball leave your hand, as though you were rolling a game of dice. It can be easy will get the best results in the end. Now there your foot work is as important as your arm in getting good results. Don't begin by trying to run slide. Get down in some nice comfortable position so you will be directly facing the set of balloons to roll the ball without losing your balance or throwing the ball sideways. After plenty of practice, runnings and dribbling will fill the sport a wonderful recreation and a tonic for people with stiff joints and occasional attacks of rheumatism. There are a few rules that every one must abide by when rolling. Keep back of foul line. That is the beginning of alley. You can roll the ball over four or five feet down the alley. Throwting the ball so it will land half way down the alley is calling lotting the ball not be tolerated bowling alley. Make the sport a study - develop not develop the mind and eye as well. Elks Handicap Walk Won By Granville New York, N.

He was advised by Chairman George Brower that a Wills challenge would be accepted and accorded G. L. Mackey proper consideration. Wills is willing to meet either one, Dempsey or Gibbons. He said this week, "I have been waiting three and a half years for a chance at the world's heavyweight title. Dempsey said he would meet me, and then he has said he would not, so no one will tell where he stands. I believe I am entitled to a chance at an opportunity to meet either Gibbons or those of their proposed bout." Denver Gibbons claims he is willing to meet Wills for the New York Boxing Commission will get Wills' signature to fill the role of the manager of each other across the resis. THIS IS WORTH INVESTIGATING A baseball fan living in Yonkers, N. Y., says Foster Brooks, a race youth, has the managers of white clubs in that section fighting over his services. According to the description given it ought not be long before this youngster will be given a chance to hit the boards in the Eastern League. He says in part, "We have one of the best baseball players, in the country in our town (Yonkers) but those of our race seem that the cannot interest him in colored ball, that the fastest white team is the State. So you know he must be the managers are fighting over his services. "I have tried in every way to get him to hook up with one of our teams, but so far he has refused." For the benefit of scouts his address is 20 Woodworth avenue, Yonkers, N. Y. FAIR PLAY FOR FLOWERS Walk Miller, manager of Tiger Flowers, still thinks Delaney has his bread ticket with a slug of metal in their recent Garden fight. Miller sees no other way the Tiger could have been knocked so cold on such situations. To the AFRO last week Miller said, "Those on the inside of negotiation that have been going on for a return Flowers-Delaney match KNOW that all I have asked for my Fighting Deacon was fair play. Since Flowers met Delaney that Deacon has gone up with me, whatever he has shown." "I have asked for no favors for Tiger Flowers. Simply protection due any honest fighter. Flowers can box with the best of them, but goes out to fight in order to give the flippant fans a run for their money." "While I fully realize that it is a different boxing sport from the flippant fair play adds to the popularity of the sport. And I might add that I shall always fight for fair play where my boxers are concerned." MUCH SOUGHT AFTER YOUNG MAN "Regardless of what financial terms are made, Flowers will not box Delaney unless he is given the protection against irregularities that he is entitled to at the hands of the different Boxing Commission." On even we are reminded that boxing commissions were appointed for the very specific purpose to elevate boxing. Several promoters throughout the country are disliking for tittular matches in two classes and Tiger in the main opponent being sought. We agree, credit on the race, agree that the Fighting Deacon from the referee reflects on the colored race. PLAYING ON SEVERAL TEAMS CONDEMNED The practice of a player being on several different teams and playing with all is severely condemned because it can lead to a group of players. Not only does this cause the team to lose its identity but the player loses his as well and the team suffers. One of the worst examples of this is the Lightning Five. On one occasion, the team made a fairly good showing, but playing under the name of the Lightning Five the work of the team has been mediocre the entire season. "Bill" Mason, athletic director at the "Y" is installing a system that eliminates the need for connecting themselves with two more teams. Several coaches have been engaged that will have direct charge of their teams and no boy will be allowed to wear the uniform of another team. A number of the quintets practicing at the "Y" have shown considerable improvement since this arrangement has GRACE MAKES IT 16 STRAIGHT The Grace basketball team made it 16 straight victories last week when they defeated the guint from Lincoln University by a 41 to 31 score. So far this season this team hasn't tasted defeat and are determined to go through with a clean slate. Their combination has met some of the best teams in the city and State and always came out with their colors flying. Their hardest opposition was the Cumberland team, white, from Cumberland, Md. The church boys have met and defeated this all-to-love team, both their coaches and players. James is all to be desired in a forward combination, while Gilmore, the tall hanky youth that made his reputation on the famous Red Circles, is an ideal pivot man. Campbell, Jones and Wilson in guard form an impregnable defense. Manager Kyler is grooming his cohorts to beat the record of the Passive high school lads. Jerome is playing to play on the Douglas high school team. This was a severe blow to the church boys, but Jerome receives his graduation papers in June so he will most likely be in line next year. **BOTH ARE RIGHT** The C. I. A. A. teams had no other alternative than to refuse to play Lincoln University as long as Lincoln played Howard. And on the other hand nothing was left for Lincoln to do but to honor her gentleman's agreement with Howard. Lincoln did not wish to leave the Association, but felt duty bound to live and contract with Howard, and according to a statement made by the athletic heads of the Pennsylvania school, Lincoln would have had no other contracts with Howard under the present Association ruling. Now with both schools out of the C. I. A. A. the public will be assured a Thanksgiving classic, which will be this year in Philadelphia. **AERO BOWLING TOURNAMENT** The AERO announces its first bowling tournament which will start on the streets of the Roxbury Center beginning Monday, April 6. on the alleys of the Bowling Center or at the Bowling Center on Pennsylvania avenues only charges will be 45 cents, which will be for those players who play. There will be prizes awarded to ladies that form leagues as well as for those in the junior tournament which will include boys over 16 years.

WILLS MAY FIGHT GIBBONS The first big outdoor fight of the year is between Harry Wills, conqueror of Northwick, of Baltimore, the winner to meet one of the rejuvenated nose. When Paddy Mullins, manager of Wills, Mr. Dempsey was about to retire, he faced contempt Dempsey-Gibbons "set up," the Brown Panthers couldn't stand it any longer. Mullins asked the Star Athletic Corp. would be positioned to challenge the challenge. He was advised by Chairman that a Wills challenge would be accepted by proper consideration. Fitting to meet either one, Dempsey or Gibbons been writing and a half years for a chance, Dempsey he would meet a would not, so no one can tell where he sits to a chance and I am willing to meet the winner of their proposed challenge. Dempsey if the New York will give Wills signature for a bout. As both we see them staring at each other across the THIS IS WORTH INVESTIGATING I can living in Yankers, N.

It is very plain to everyone familiar with the situation in the present controversy culminating in the withdrawal of Howard University's position as a member of the rules and regulations of the Association in order to keep pace with its rapid growth. I hereby make the following suggestions: C. I. A. L. L. Let there be a reorganization establishing two divisions, the collegiate division and the inter-collegiate division and the inter-collegiate division. All the variety teams would be made up only of collegiate teams while the inter-collegiate teams would be made from the other departments. I intercollegiate teams of membership institutions which have no college departments could play the varsity teams, but it would not count in the varsity records. I am proud of playing on the inter-collegiate teams, but he himself charged against him when he enters the collegiate department of any college, neither should argue with the professional department of any college, which should be able to play on the varsity teams. These suggestions apply to football, basketball and baseball. This course will also provide men in the professions playing games should she return to the Association. This would also prevent other institutions from playing games on the varsity team. These divisions would only obtain so far as games are concerned. In all other respects as to membership, coding and other requirements, the Association should be on equal terms. Also the Association should not be restricted in its membership, but should include men in the A. A. for its standing, and within playing standings come in and affiliate with the Association. This open letter is submitted to the Association, A. A. for its standing, and in no spirit of criticism, but prompted by a desire to see the C. I. A.

It was the next game seen in these press by girls in uniform, with the Celeritas playing a cool game, satisfied to let Union speed their plays below center, then remaining solid in the first half. Miss Johnson, of Union, started the scoring with a beautiful shot from a most difficult angle. Hardly did Miss Johnson score when Miss Holmes countered from the free throw line for the Celeritas's first score. The scoring followed this with a shot from the center of the floor. The longest shot made by any girl in the Hampton gym. This was agreed by all old authorities at Miss Wharton led her team in scoring having five double deckers on her credit. Miss Cooper was next Captain Brown seemed full of courage and fight and he made mistakes. He was substituted for Miss Brown, and came in bandy by breaking a deadlock score with a marker that put him in the lead with five foes on their march to victory. The Union team played a good game, but they kept up with the new set by the Invaders after the first half. This was their first defeat on their tour, and they lost three even when they came to Baltimore in April. Coach Bob Lewis accompanied them on the trip. Washington, D.

Potomacs Will Need Whole Infeld And Two Good Pitchers This Season. Office Consultation and Treatment $2 DR. ROBERT X. GIERING BY BEN TAYLOR The Washington Potomac, is one of the new clubs admitted to the league in the fall of '23 and played their first season with the Eastern League. Like Harrisburg the Potomacs were competed to build from the ground up. My readers may not know one own club, but she should know all the weak spots as well as the strong ones. It is quite true that I do know my weak points in my former club, and I will give my readers a few of them in this article. I came to Washington in the spring of 1823 to organize a strong colorado club, because one of my weak points was too late for me to get in the Eastern League, but I was assured that if I went through the season I would be knocking for another year. I had a good chance to join the league at its meeting in the fall. As a result the Potomacs and Harrisburg made members at the annual meeting in Philadelphia, December, 1923. Started With Six Veterans Of my old club there were at six players. So you can see I was forced to get a practically new bunch of men. The Baltimore Black Six by winning and the Lincoln Clients winning out of eight from us did more than their share towards keeping us near the bottom in the league, as much as much or more than any other club trying to get a winner. The sought men from as far as Denver, Colorado and several from Texas and Jacksonville, Florida. The Potomac during the season had a total of 28 ball players on the pay showing. We were the first colored club to have a trainer or coach with the Steel Arm Taylor, to coach the young pitchers and to keep the men in shape. Afterwards the Lincoln Clients hired "Nuck" James for At the beginning of the season I had Mack Eglegton and Fred Williams as catchers. Eglegton was first starting in the second receiver in the East. I consider him a very brady ball player. He was with Columbus the short time that club was in the Western League. He was with the Indianapolis A. B. C. S., teaming with Mackey, of the Hildailles. The following season he came East with me and has been with the Potomacs. "Egg" is really a great catcher, and would be better with the addition of a little more aggressiveness. He can get better results from a little more aggression. The league. He also has a good arm and is over the average at bat. He was used at all the弱 positions at different time last season and is unbeaten. Fred Williams was brought from Dallas, Texas, and had his first rial in the big show. He was a good receiver but had a very weak arm and I was able to use him in few league games near the close of season named Johnson was secured from Donny McClellan's club, the Phalaenelim Gamma League. Johnson's Eggleton's understory behind the hat. The Potomics with Eggleton and Johnson another season should be well fortified behind him. Manager and Player Yours truly, Ben H. Taylor, played first base and was also manager, Ben H. Taylor, in Birmingham, Alabama, with my brother, the late C. I. Taylor. Last weeks' article has C. I. Taylor as my father, that was a mistake of the printer, not mine. I began at that time either, but I could hit and was shifted to first base after a few years for my hitting. I have played first for St. Louis Giants, not for the New York Giants, pitched for the Lincoln Giants, played first for the New York Barcharias and was also their manager the season of 1919. We had the strongest club in the NHL, the Hilldales live out of seven games for the championship of the East. Another record was made by that famous machine. We played nine straight days in the Hilldales opposing club. We are shut out whatever club we were playing for nine straight days. They were not the same club each day, and they were the strongest club that we could find in the East. On the 10th day we played the Detroit Stars. They had one of the strongest clubs in the West. After a few games we were in the 10th inning, four to three. A. Worlds' Record The next day we shut them out on one run. That was 10 shutouts and 11 games. That record is still ending. Now let the clubs shoot at them. Some of the men on that club were Lilian Shively, Reddling "Country" Brown, Handy, Hummingbird, Dateline, Pete Wilson, Giraffes, Widow and Widowkits, pitchers. I was at India and am from 14 to 12 with the exception of 1919. I have hit 300 or better for 15 of the 16 years I have been in the game. I am still a year old because of the constant worry of running a losing club. At that I led my club at bat and in home runs with 15. Peter Washington, playing left fielder, second far from with 14. I am still far from through as a ball player and will show the fans a few things this coming season. Anderson Failed The season was started with "Bubbles Anderson." He was a fullback. Hamilton was shifted from shortstop to second base. Hamilton was also secured from culmination. He was best shortstop in Texas. He developed a bad arm, or did not, and he was very dangerous man but he was a very dangerous man at bat, so he was moved over to second, where he finished the season and did fairly well. He should improve each year. Shortstop was not filled to my satisfaction all season. After Hamilton was shifted to that was with me in '23, but his biting was too light for the big leagues, so I sent him to Providence, R. I, for more seasoning. He was for, who was in Jacksonville, Florida. He is a fair shortstop, but is also too weak with the willow. However, I was using him regularly until he became ill the following year, and was out the balance of the season. Owens Makes Good The season was finished with Owens in stopshot. The club in Providence having gone to the wall a few days earlier, in Austin, Texas, was at third. That was his first year in league baseball, I brought Joe up from Texas in '23, and he showed lots of pep and was a great little fielder, but hurt his arm in spring and has never fully recovered from it. During the winter he was hit by an automobile and the injury left his right eye partly paralyzed. But at that I consider and give the best that is in him at all times, he goes in to win. Something that cannot be sold of some of the others. And you will find him in condition to play every day. If I have a club this year, I will have to have Joe for my third baseman. Infield Was Poor The Potomac's infeld did not look so good. It was patched up all seasone. The infeld would one experienced me. The infeld would one experienced me last or at least no higher than Harrisburg's infeld. It was patched on a par with the other club. I started with better Washington in left. Shively in center and "Country" Brown in right. Shively was released to the Back Bay Club. John Chinney White finished the season in center. Washington is one of the men I played with. He got him from Albany, Georgia, the spring of 1923. He did not look like he would have a week, but by then he was one of the best outfielders in the East. He has been named on more than one all-star club of the Eastern League. If properly handled he will be Charleston's only rival in a few years. In fact, I consider him as good a bolder new boy but he is not the hitter. Brown, a Comedian Shlively and Chaney White were covered in the *Barcharchs* article. Brown is very familiar with the baseball fans, besides being one of the most famous players. He is somewhat of a comedian, keeping the fans amused, even when we were getting a bad beating. He is one of the oldest players in the league, and would be an asset to any club. During the last of the season White injured his bad leg, so a youngster was drafted from the Philadelphia Giants, managed by Danny Fitzpatrick, to a positional manager of the 1925 Wilmington Potomac, according to a Pittsburgh paper. The youngster's name was Dallarle, but he is one of the best, outfielder in the league. Carr, a Tramp Pitcher At the beginning of the season I thought I had a very good pitching chance. Clarke were released after the first month for more seasoning. "String-benad," Williams was released to the Chicago club. To round out my pitching staff, Wayne Carr was seured from the Bacharachs. Albritton and "Red" Green were seured from the Brooklyn Giants. My staff was then Carr, Greer, Albritton and Hampton. Carr had one best year, starting in 1920. In "21 he was with the Brooklyn Royal Giants, "22 he was back west, "23 he was with the Indianapolis, "24 he was with the Philadelphia and Baltimore Black Sox. He is considered one of the best pitchers in the East. He started with the Columbus Buckeyes, of the Western League, in 1921. In 1922 he was with the A. B. C. s. of Indianapolis and the Bacharachs and Hillsdales. Hampton Makes Good He was not considered a great pitcher by the fans until last season. But after beating the champion, he agreed that he could pitch after all. "Hump" is also one of the best pitchers he has bolted hitting home runs. He has broke up several games by lifting the sphere over the fence. Buttton was first seen by us in 1923. He was a fair pitcher, but is too light for the big leagues. However, he can beat most any winger against him. He is a good worker and is always ready to work. "Red" Green, the youngster secured from the Brooklyn All-Stars, made a great reputation in the few games he worked. He has every time he has curves, screen and a good slow ball. His control is good for a lefthander. His only weakness is holding men on bases and fielding If he is not given a great deal of practice in fielding any club can heat him by burning. He does not take good care of his feet. He also makes the making of one of the greatest pickers we have ever had. I find several more pitchers for a brief spell. Among them was Jenkins the pitcher for Washington and numbers of others that failed to make the grade. In summing up I will say that the Potomates need a whole indie and so good high class pitchers if they finish in the first division his year. Next week will be the last cup, the Cuban Stars.

G.'S Former Third Baseman With American And Lincoln Gts. Answers New Post TO HAVE FREE REINS Every Effort To Be Made To Give Indianapolis Winning Team Indianapolis, Ind.—Officials of the Indianapolis A. B. C.'s baseball club, composed of Messrs. Warner Jewell, John Overton and R. Page, through their secretary, A. D. Williams, announced today that they had made their selection of a manager to pilot the club through the 1925 season.

He immediately and has already started gathering material for the new club. Messrs. Page and Question stated that they would have anything to concern the selection of the manager, and also said that they would leave the entire management of the club, mechanical and other equipment, to Jewell, his manager and secretary. The officials of the Indianapolis club are old and respected residents who have come up forwards of from 49 years. They have seen the city grow from a hamlet to one of the metropolitan cities and have watched the growth of business in its infancy here. Mr. Jewell having operated an independent club for a great many years.

M. E. Church were hilted at a church meeting Monday night. The members present indulged in singing and testimonials among themselves. Coop Hunk after eight 10. At that hour the door to one ante room of the meeting chamber opened and trustees, stewards and other officials filed out, their faces indicting that weighty mutu- al abuse occurred. Coming quickly to the point, the Rev. Mr. Douglass stated simply that within the next few days there were many changes in the church which he declared conditions in the administration of his church had made absolutely necessary. The marks were taken up with a seeming farewell to his congregation and his later remarks seemed to indicate that he contemplated an early resignation. His five year term is now over. He was there at the next annual conference. He spoke of being given a new charge by the impending annual reorganization and accomplishments of his five year regime. He finally stated that it was his duty to be a pastor to entertain the conference which meets two months hence. No Dictator The thought that the Rev. Mr. Douglass may hand in his resignation, within a very brief time was encouraged by a very statement, toward church where the officers could not get along with the pastor or the pastor with the officers, then it was only a man's duty for the dissatisfaction once quitting to resign to the pastor in the church but expressed his opinion that a pastor should direct his church at all times. He further spoke of the discouragement certain unruly remarks of a pastor in church had given him when he thought he was doing right. One of these, which he proven to be ridiculous was the rumor that he had been the direct cause of recent explosion of the church furnaces. By far the greater part of the pastor's remarks were devoted to the details of the coming conference, appointment of committees, appointment of a mediator, a mild sensation did occur. Dudley Asks For Light Mr. Dudley, an aged member of the church, arose in the rear of the audience and checked the conference discussion which had already begun by respectfully requesting a specific statement of what the exact trouble between pastor and officers was and further just what were the changes to be effected within a few days as stated by the pastor. The substance of the Rev. Douglass' reply to this direct question was distinctly an evasion. He stated that the trustees of the church were elected by the members on each Monday night after Easter from a list of 18 candidates appointed by the pastor. He also said that stewards and other officials were appointed by the pastor and members had nothing to do with their election. Any changes to be made, he said, could only be made by the members of the church through the election on Easter Monday night of their trustees. This was all that was said. No one else requested further enlightenment and those present seemed to be in full sympathy with the pastor. The rest of the meeting, which lasted until 11 o'clock, was taken up with conference discussion. CARROL GIBSON IS EXECUTED HERE Carrol Gibson, 18-year old lad, charged with assaulting Mrs. Clara Baker, white of 17, paid the penalty with his life at 12:28 Friday morning at the Maryland Penitentiary in the presence of 40 officers, physicians and newspaper men. Young Gibson was led out on the death penalty after being sent during three minutes later. At 12:40 the physician announced him dead. He walked with a slow, uncertain trend between two officers, H. Heulner, prison chaplain. In a letter written to the Rev. Heuhrer, Gibson stated that he was not afraid to die and committed the crime. He stated that he was ready to meet his God and affirmed his faith in the Catholic Church. Story Of Allied Crime On the night of August 27 Gibson was employed by the Bakers, went on a trip to Easton with Baker. He returned later to the home and according to Mrs. Baker entered the prison, she was in and assaulted her. When her husband returned she informed him she had gone to a party where he was arrested and rushed to Baltimore for safekeeping. Some time later he was taken back to Easton and tried. He was beaten. Every effort made by citizens to stay the sentence of death until an investigation of certain rumors upon him could be for clemency could be made, failed. UNBLEACHING America 1. Do you think black and white races will amalgamate? 2. Would amalgamation lead to destruction of our civilization? 3. Do you oppose it? 4. Do you think the Negro inferior to the white. 5. What is your solution of the race problem? These questions answered for the AFRO by twelve leading scientists and thinkers of the country—the brain of America.

Clip the whole series of 14 and what America's best minds consider a solution of the problem. ARTICLE III. There are few people in America who are not acquainted with Lothrop Stoddard. When he was first published, his book, *The Rising Tide of Color*, created a great strir in America. Pronounced by the learned few as hysterical and unscientific, it was received by the ignorant whore. When a book comparison was written what influence this book has had on the half-educated middle class. Most of the readers of these articles will not be surprised at Stoddard's view regarding the racial purity bill. Writing to Mr. Powell, he said, "I consider such legislation ... to be of the highest value and greatest necessity, in order that the purity of the white race be safeguarded with our civilization with non-white blood." "White race purity is the cornerstone of our civilization. Its monogelization with non-white blood, particularly with Negro blood, would spell the end of our civilization. This is a matter of both national and racial life and death." Mr. Earnest S. Cox, a young ethnologist of the Stokoe family, gave a book entitled "White America," he builds up a thesis upon the assumption that the Negro is inherently inferior to the white man and that the white race will result in the downfall of American civilization. Madison Grant concurs with Mr. Cox in his opinion regarding race mixture. Mr. Grant's book, "The Origin of the White Race," an original form, was designed by the auctor to rouse his fellow-Americans to the overwhelming importance of race and to the folly of the Melting Pot theory even at the exertion of controversy. Further we read: "The days of the Civil War and the provincial sentimentalism which governed or misgoverned our public opinion are past, and this generation has been proud boast of our fathers that they acknowledge no distinction in race, creed, or color, or else the native American must turn the page of his history." "Finns, America." In chapter two on the "Physical Basis of Race," page 16, Mr. Grant writes: "There exists today a widespread and fatuous belief in the power of environment, as well as of education and opportunity to alter heredity, which arises from the dogma of the brotherhood of man, derived in its turn from the loose thinkers of the Pronto' COUGH BALSAM 50 cents, at your druggist.

BLIND MAN HEADS BIG FIELD WORK Remarkable Career Of Baltimore Man Who Has Succeeded Tho Handicapped VICTIM OF INSECT BITE Patrick Brooks Says He Went Totally Blind At Age Of Six When Bitten By Bug That blindness does not prevent a successful career, is proved by Patrick J. Brooks, 1120 Argyle Avenue, who conducts the field work in instruction of the Maryland School for the Blind. An AFRO reporter discovered Mr. Brooks teaching a Sunday school class in one of the local churches and noting his profound knowledge of the Bible sought an interview. Blind Since Childhood “I have been blind since childhood,” said Mr. Brooks. “I was bitten by an insect when I was six years of age and went totally blind. This happened down in Prince George County. Later I came to Baltimore and attended the Maryland School for the Blind, which was then located at 49 W. Saratoga street. The remarkable efficiency of Mr. Brooks was exemplified when he paused to greet a friend whom he was able to recognize by voice and to call by name. “What do you do now?” he was asked. "I am field instructor for the Maryland Home for the Blind. This looks after blind men and women who cannot enter the institution. "I teach them to read and write and chair chairs. I teach him his methods of teaching reading and writing, especially writing. "We use what is known as the New York method, palmed. This system was invented by Dr. Wade of New York, and consists of raised dots which are read by touch. In writing we use a slate paper, and in reading we use a paper paper. "The writing is a mechanical cess and I have now under my instruction 35 people who can write letters to me and their friends. Mr. Brooks finds his way alone about the city by the sense of touch. Tapping the pavement occasionally to tell from the sound where he is when he reaches an intersection. Although denied the privilege of sight he has made much more of success than many men and women who cannot enter the institution of all their special senses. The Henry Watson Children's Aid Society, with headquarters at 31 S. Calvert street, gave the children unimaginable a Valentine treat. Saturday, February 14th, at Bethel A. M. E. Church.

Wedding Announced Mr. and Mrs. Jesse T. Smith, 1829 bearer of the wedding of their mother, Mrs. Mary J. Edwards to Mr. George Burton A reception from seven to nine will follow. The newly married couple will be at Jeggson Street, York, Pa. Education Increase Joseph H. Jones, Jr., secretary to Mayor Curley, of Boston, and author of the famous serial "By Sanction of Law," now running in the APDO does not believe "Unleaching America," are getting to the heart of the matter fast enough. His statement reads: I have just finished reading the second of the series of articles discussing the question of "Unleaching America" and the five subdivisions of that question. I am convinced that an amendment forced to offer a criticism. Perhaps I am too lazy and should wait till other articles have appeared before washing into print, I misjudge. After reading the second article, however, I must say that so far I have been disappointed in the questions the them seem to be skimming the subject and have offered nothing in answer to the five questions proposed or even one of them. I have been asked to answer those questions or at least discuss them, for only by discussion can we arrive at truth and enlightening conclusions. I hope will be a fearless medium. Amalgamation Sure Personally I believe the black and white races of America will eventually amalgamate as they do, and this difference, that in the future the amalgamation will become more and more legal and honorable as time speeds us and allows us to be as the black race in America acquires culture, wealth, education the color barrier will fade. I believe also that amalgamation is the construction of our civilization but improve it. The Negro has as much brain and ability to contribute to civilization as the white people and is permitted. This is proven every day and in all sorts of ways. Nor do I oppose it (amalgamation). Neither would I master it. Neither would I progress and progress upon the part of the black race. Left to themselves the very human nature of the two races will cause them to be forgotten in contact. No Interiority As to whether the Negro is inferior to the white race or Personnel cannot ace the inferiority of the race, the interest of finance and control of wealth and country the Negro is inferior. In brain heart, amusement of God and Christianity the Negro is not inferior. He is behind in education at present but fast overcoming that handkeep. He is not the most measured up to the very best civilization can demand. As to a solution of the race problem, he needs more than anything else is a spirit of fair play, the exercise of real Christianity, the cultivation of white manhood to promote Christianity, consciousness of self respect on the part of the Negro and a demand for recognition of his own respect by conduct whenever in any other race, and finally a deep and lasting love for God and our coun- Has Faith in God The Negro is endowed with patience, faith in God and love of his fellow man. He let him ascend to the highest standing in his particular community and his children or their children will reap the benefit of his wisdom and the circle of American citizenship fully and freely. Let us preserve ambition and hope at the highest things make for real manhood and womanhood. I do hope the remaining artisans and courage enough on the subject to speak out, both pro and con, something of value on these vitals, write may and can be earnest and sincere without bitterness or rancor. I hope they will. Man Struck By Auto William Payton, age 44, 1204 W. Lexington street, was struck by an automobile while attempting to cross the street at Saratoga, near Carrollwood, on Sunday.

Mr. Fallin, also reports the safe arrival of Garvey's shirt, "Booker T. Washington," at the Canal Zone when a native population turned out in large numbers to celebrate the event. Enroute south from New York, Mr. Fallin, stopped off in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, long enough to spend one or two days sight-seeing. "The shirt," he said, "go bare-footed and from the sores on their feet, it seems as if they never wash them. The upper caste wear shoes and are better dressed than the lower caste are rather ragged in wearing apparel. The Haitian women are very discreet in their apparel and no where does one see the exposures in their homes, as in Laotian countries. Natives carry everything on their heads. It is a common thing to see a native man with a pound sack of coffee on his head.

Some colored fellow employees recalled by him were: "Shed Brown United States storekeeper, Cummings, appointed from Cumberland, Tilton, from Hagerstown was weighmaster. Milton Urner, white Republican boss was responsible for these appointments.

In Street Cleaning Department Drivers furnished their own horse and cart and maintenance for same, the pay was $18 per week.

Roemansson of the steamship West Jermin of the United States Shipboard, charged with shooting and killing two Liberian sailors at Freetown, Sierra Leon, West Africa, on August 8th, has been exonerated. In a statement exclusively for the AFRO-AMERICAN, W. E. Griffith, manager of the department stationed there, the matter was reported to a someone ago and a tribunaleigation conducted upon arrival of the S. S. "West Irmo," at New York. The investigation developed that the deceased Kroos boy had been attacked by the Master and that course of a mutinous attack upon him and that Captain Hermansson used his revolver only in self-defense, and had to take disastrous and had to take disastrous action in order to save his own life. "The investigation further developed that the men in question were refused to refuse to the repeated orders of the Master that they get off the bridge deck until the headman had been freed." The testimony of all the Officers corroborated the foregoing summary of the case and does not in any way suggest that the report printed in the AFIOMERICAN that the two men both Liberian subjects had been ruthless given to substantiate the charge that Captain Hermann was tyrannical — on the contrary it was clear that the men had fair in a diplomatic manner and did not defend himself against the attack of the Kroo boys until it became imperative necessary to pro- A God Sent Rejuvenator for Weak Men and Women KELLY MILLER WRITES REGULARLY FOR THE AFRO THE AFRO-AMERICAN Champion of Civic Welfare and the Square every Friday in the Afro-American Building, Limboro, Md, by the APRO-AMERICAN COMPANY.

Ritchie Ritorner is a party to it insofar and death warrants. It is becoming inor him to declare he is acting in these miscretion. Over-expansion, it is believed, will account for the failure of Brown and Stevens' Bank in Philadelphia last week. This institution, largest private bank of the race, with 6,000 depositors and one million in liabilities, carried down with it also the Cosmopolitan State Bank with 3,000 depositors and $112,000 liabilities. This latter bank had $38,000 on deposit with Brown and Stevens. Whether the events of last week are to be chronicled as a disaster involving the loss of hundreds of thousands of dollars or only a temporary set-back, to be remedied by reorganization and readjustment must await the report of the chief State bank examiner. This examiner's preliminary report discloses that Mr. E.C. Brown was head of both banks, and while no fraud was perpetrated in depositing funds of Cosmopolitan Bank in the private bank of Brown and Stevens, the procedure showed poor judgment on the part of the Cosmopolitan directors. Brown and Stevens' funds were known to have been invested in various real estate and theatrical enterprises. One of these, the Douglass Theatre, Baltimore, built at a cost of $350,000, has been dark for nearly two years. Immediate cause of the run on the banks and consequent receiverships has not been disclosed. There is evidence, however, that when the emergency arose Brown and Stevens were unable to liquidate rapidly enough to meet the demands of depositors. The remedy for the entire situation seems to lie in avoiding the over-expansion and investment in "frozen assets" on the part of private banking institutions and when possible application for State charter, which would bring about the careful scrutiny and advice of banking experts. Gibson Hanged; Didn't Know It Carroll Gibson was hanged here in the State Penitentiary Friday on the charge of rape, but he did not know anything about it. Thanks to Warden Claude B. Sweezy, Gibson's last hours were made as painless as those of a patient on a modern operating table. The administration of drugs made it possible to avoid the harrowing scenes usually a part of such executions. This marks a step forward in Maryland civilization and Colonel Sweezy, deserves the credit for it. One step more remains, namely, the abolition of capital punishment. The warden is on record as opposing capital punishment on the ground that it dooms to death square, level-headed men who have acted in the heat of passion, and who are least likely to commit a crime again. There is another phase of this matter which warrants public attention. Two Negroes have been hanged during Governor Ritchie's administration and four in the past five years. One of these was charged with murder and three with rape. No white person has been hanged, despite flagrant and brutal murder cases on the record. The Couthron case is one in point. Grace and Clarence Couthron, both white, hired two colored taxi men, one after the other, killed them, secreted their bodies and went off with their cars. They were given prison terms. John Pilchard, white, killed a Pocomoke, Md., schoolteacher. He was given a short term and paroled. John Urban, white policeman, entered the home of John Williams and unprovoked, shot him to death. He was given a short term and paroled. Two white State policemen shot an innocent Negro recently and were let off with small fines. The conviction is growing that there are several standards of justice in Maryland—one for crimes in which Negroes alone or whites alone are concerned; another standard in which the minimum sentence is given to whites who commit crimes against Negroes, and still another in which the maximum penalty is inflicted upon Negroes who commit crimes against whites. Governor Ritchie is a party to it insofar as he signs paroles and death warrants. It is becoming increasingly difficult for him to declare he is acting in these matters with wisest discretion.

When Richard Douglass, Arkansas' 95 year old blacksmith says he has lived long because he has abstained from "arguing with his wife," his opinion is bound to command respect. In these days when the average span of male existence, according to insurance tables is 48 to 50, the views of any man who lives to such ripe old age, deserve careful attention. The Douglass philosophy expanded means peace in the home at any price and in the last analysis is not far different from that of 98 years old Henry Jones of Texas who recently declared he owed his long life to his bachelorhood. It is to be doubted, if the present generation can be expected to accept the Douglass program of doing all the housework on Sunday while the wife goes out or the "bed at 8 P. M., and rising at 4 A. M., however much this latter may agree with him. Anybody who misses everything that goes or after 8 P. M., in modern America, might just as well be dead, or in prison anyway.

"Not only," she says, "are we expanding in Industry, in the professions and proving our worth in the marts of trade, but we are changing some of the oppressive customs which have long held us in social slavery." "The other day a girl you might call a flapper stated that she had just rung up one of her male acquaintances and told him that she desired him to take her to a certain play that week. Only a few years ago any matron would have looked upon this act as a brazen disregard of the maidenly modesty." Turning to the group there as the body of the unfortunate boy swung to and fro. Warden Sweezey remarked, "What good use, what good it done?" Those who saw Carroll Gibson did must have thought with Colone Sweezey. More than this they must have thought of the human work still to be done in this, old world of "More than this," she said. We don't intend to sit quietly.

While there may be a danger line of feminism there can be no doubt but that the new independence will benefit mankind if properly guided. There was a time in the history of humanity that armed himself with a club and went out hunting. It may be a fool's vision, but some day we may have a world where every child born into it will have the same chance to see things will be taken at least as seriously as the successful rearing of blooded horses. We will have no alleys and half paid parents and wretched houses whose parents left the prison for the church. Churches pillars of the churches and, first, citizens. Even the more modern custom of having the wife "pursued" by the man, is somewhat imperfect, for often the woman has had to sit glently and see the man she instinctively wanted pass her up and be forced to accept some less favorable choice because custom prevented her. We will have no jails and no gallows and will need no hangmen. But according to modern feminists this day is passing and it will be the woman who looks them over the fate of the future generation.

Memphis, Tenn. The early priests of Israel were dark bunch. Moses is represented as a typical Negro in a painting now in Berlin and in old prints from Hebrew sources, all of the prophets are named Negroes. In fact, the ancient Hebrews were a very much mixed people and even today there are thousands of them in Palestine who are typically Negroes who nothing save their alone. But always it is the same when a Negro character is introduced seriously into a social setting; waving at a woman or a bad colored woman who drags down a good white man or a degenerate white woman who "falls" to the social contact with colored men. The subtle dynamics of public opinion have produced a mental complex which even the most intelligent Negros O'Nell and their school cannot fully penetrate.

THE WORLD'S MOST FANTASTIC MAN The chances are Abe himself would have enjoyed this participation, been alive that day. Though Lincoln was absent the spirit was present. I do not mean to say other organizations did not get a great deal of kick out of their presence. I am told the spirit of this occasion. However, in two different localities to my knowledge, large portraits of Abe graced the walls and the tables were all set. The Southern Hotel, so I learn by the newspapers, the Republicans of the State and city held their annual demonstration, while at the Sharp St. Community Church, I was told that I must hold their little "get-together." In both places speeches were running wild. Senator France Speaks The Hon. Joseph France, Ex-Senator of Maryland, attended the Southern Hotel Klanvocation and had his little word, Senator France had something to say of Lincoln, but more to say of a gentleman whose name he did not mention. As a matter of fact, after a few minutes (in so far as the subject of the evening was concerned it would have been better had the portrait of Abe, the rail splitter, been taken down and that of Senator O. E. Weller the silent, put up in its place. The meeting resolved itself into a "beeling" contest, and if talk means anything there are some men in this State who intend to throw off the yoke of Weller as did the American Colonists throw off the yoke of George the Third. Instead of confining their appetites to the dinner furnished for the occasion it appeared the guests preferred to swallow veiled threats. However, I have always been taught actions speak louder than words, and if this is true Senator Weller still holds the whip hand in spite of the Lincoln day dinner. The Community House Drummer At the Sharp Street Community House it was different. This meeting was held in the basement by the grace of God, his long "dough" and the dumness of the Negroes in his district, now sits in the Maryland Inside Building.

To Eat And Drink There was a great difference between the Community House dinner. I should have said innumerable differences, but one difference in the attitude was apparent. At the Community House the man to eat and drink—a vast difference. The Southern Hotel gathering was thinking as to how it is going to get the community house to eat and drink—a vast difference. The Southern Hotel gathering was not even thinking of the boss. Those fellows at the Community House knew that the boss is who is boss. The Senator Weiler is all right with them just like the Hon. William F. Stone was all right. They are at least satisfied there is nothing The Republican boss of Maryland could be named Patrick Henry, Jack Dempsey, Martin Luther, Ludwig W.

They are too dirty to be called clean and too clean to be seen. Like the Bible states, the show is neither hot nor cold. It reminds me of some of the candidates at election time who are both wet and dry. The candidates have been a good show in its days. But considering all this it must be admitted that even a dirty sheet some time has a clean white spot on it. And it must be a pillow protected by the old time piece.

To Eat And Drink "Runnin' Wild" 15 Years Ago Kelly Miller Says Kelly Miller Says The record of Fisk is a glorious one. The past at least is secure. May her glory never fade and may her banner never trail in the dust of bickering and strife. The whole fabric of the higher education of the Negro is involved in this issue. No Negro with thought and discernment can be indifferent to the outcome. If Fisk should fail, every Negro College in the land must needs tremble. Current happenings are disheartening. I can scarcely recall such a swift succession of events, the other, and all tending in the same discouraging direction. First comes Fisk University. We had come to look upon the model among Negro colleges. This was especially conceded with reference to its cultural and genteel regime as a finishing school for young women. The announcement that this institution had secured a million dollars us the basic foundation of world education thrilled the heart of every well-wisher of the higher education of the Negro race. This was the first instance where Northern philanthropy had been involved in the development of a purely Negro college. We had begun to hope that this was but an indication of the type of education which had been nipping short grass for many a moon. But all of a sudden a bit of cloud appeared, at first not bigger than the earth, but not too heavy, far behind it. Be far from me to engage in the unfortunate controversy as an outside midder. No friend of Negro education at this critical time will venture a single word that might seem to aggravate the local and internal issues which must be adjusted by the good judgment and good sense of those who have the matters imminent. If Fisk will not survive the storm, all the better and nobler for the trials and tribulations through which she is now passing. The friend of Fisk is a glorious one. The past at least is secure. May her glory never fade, and may her banner never fall. Negro colleges and atlantic. The whole fabric of the higher education of the Negro is involved in this issue.

Howard stretches her hand across the distance to Fisk, saying the hand of good will, sister of mine. Marcus Garvey has been sentences to the Federal penitentiary for a term of five years and has entered upon the sentence. The law has had been made law, and been fair according to legal formulary. No true American can condone crime or condemn the just and righteous punishment of the wrongdoer. The sentence is doubled once when propaganda is entangled in legal technicalities. The trick is as old as human cunning. Always put the troublesome reformer on the wrong side of the hill or to the gallowls. It is the same type of tactics resorted to in case of Jesus. Sometimes John flipped the same regardless of the merits of the issue. Every martyr is made to feel the cunning hungman in the poor pit to rank Marcuss Carvay among the martyrns of history. I reserve judgment upon his propaganda whether he is good or evil. I reserve judgment upon his own not necessary for my present purpose. A few years ago, Mr. Garvey burst upon our view like an unexpected blowing whose intensity of devotion has never been equalled in the whole story of racial strivings in this land. His plishment seems utterly impossible to sane judgment. Recalls John Brown And yet it is doubtful if the proposals of Garvey are any more absurd than the plans of John Brown the prescheduled preacher of the abolition of slavery, to the orthodox mind of his day, were the same of absurdity. In the futile attempt to promote his objective, Marcus Garvey, wily and ruthless, ran thwart the efforts of the most reformers think that their reforms transcend the law and justify its transgression. They thereafter feel the law's restraining hand. Indeed, Gandhi frankly informed his prosecutors, that, in legal consistency, they were compelled to sentence him to prison. They were compelled to emulliating to the Negro race to see the most widely discussed and famous among its members in handcuffs on the way to prison. It is not Marcus Garvey, per se, Garvey who has the effrontery to promote and proclaim ideas which do not suit the white man's preconceived notion of things. Any Negro who dares like audacity may expect A learned English authority, by name of W. Loud Clowes, if I mistake not, declares that the technicality of the law is the easiest way to watch them closely, and at some turn of the road they will violate established regulations, then cruelly them with the law's rigid feature. Court Imprison Ideas Mr. Garvey has stirred up a propaganda which has some valuable features which should not be allowed to stand in the way of his self-possession which is absolutely necessary to withstand the acute consciousness on the part of the white race. You cannot impress him with the true, but false battle with the true, and rely upon the survival of the fittest. Marcus Garvey is in jail, regardless of the technical justice he has received and sorrowful sanctacles for the zero to look upon.

It seems have the strength to see the business that it sought merger with a white company as a rock of refuge, our hearts within us. We are abundantly assured that the risks are better than ever, and that no one need for us, any more, than our new alliance, our rucse pride is set back and it hurts us to feel it. Another Bank Fails Upon the heels of this reversal comes the announcement of the run on the Brown and Stevens' Bank. of Philadelphia. The Negro's attempt at big business too often comes to the aid of it not time that we entered into serious and soluten consideration of the cause of this reproach. We have seen that the Negro do business on a large scale? There can be but one answer. There are no secrets in business. The same principles and practices which bring success to one man will bring like success to another. If therefore, the Negro meets with a greater relative number of failures than his white competitor, it must be because he does not have the established rules and regulations. We cannot think of any mysterious racial endowment which helps the one and hinders the other. The laws of trade like the laws of nature are absolutely color If the Negro lacks experience and contact these must be acquired by the usual and ordinary methods. He must not let repeated failure halle him. It is perilous that the great business of business venture with failure at some stage of their development. But each failure but inspires a fresh start. Must Build On Failure The human race is fundamentally optimistic. It cannot be discouraged by failure. Every successful experiment requires the management of thousands of abortive efforts. The devotees never cease to pray because the previous prayers have failed to elicit the answer desired. But rather pray for the future, ever spurred on by that hope which springs eternally in the human breast. It is significant that after Macron lost had lost thousands of dollars of his followers in a steamship enterprise, the original subscribers forthwith proceeded to finance another enterprise. We rise on our dead enemies as stepping stones in things. Every bank that fails should but stimulate us to fresh enderow, not forgetting, however, to profit by the endeavor. There is no other way to learn. Perhaps we will be called upon to pay a higher toll of loss than the white man because we may not so easily borrow his experience from the black man by lack of contact and association. Needs Negro Business The most deplorable feature of the Negro problem is the obvious failure of the race to conduct the ordinals, needs and necessities of the communities where he forms the great bulk of the population. I can point out a dozen communities in people in Washington with Jews on every business corner conducting the business which absorbs the substance of the culture. What is most to be wondered at is the fact that the merchant class falls far below the average intelligence. As we look about the large cities of the country and see the woeful lack of business efficiency in the community in wondering if after all, the race must forever be a people to hew wood and draw water for the more energetic or more efficient folk of There are, however, let us hope, but temporary disabilities which will pass away with time and experience will weeks serve to awaken serious and soher thoughts. He that thinketh he standeth let him take head less he fail. After all, let us understand the progress and success. We are over-prone to boast of the wonderful things which the race has accomplished. We seem to believe nothing in the world boasting us now stop bragging and begin to think. HOOSIT? 2.

To Keep Children From Littering On Way Home, From School Pin Money With the first of school I began to notice my children wanted to letter on the way home. So I started to give them a light lunch as soon as they got less appetite, as that would mean less appetite of lemonade, grape juice, or milk with a few crackers or cookies. They would eat which would mean a short rest and (againly) their school project, and they would be discussed; also, the different inter-pleg things they did and done in school. I thought out that I could help them with. My children seldom forget to take matter with them, so I would send the lunch is just jitter and bread, the minutes thus spent are golden and they be home as soon as possible after breakfast.

Jeller, Phila Heart Problems Answered by Annie Roney is She Playing Safe? I am engaged to a girl who knows we can't afford to be married for at least two years. She insists upon accepting invitations from other men You can't. Many women take the attitude they are protecting themselves and ignore their friends. If the engagement is broken they are not left so farther as though they had not other friends, it's really their attitude exists. Are you sure your bestfriend is serious? He's Neglectful Now. I am a married woman and have a daughter nine months old. Since baby has come to us, it seems my husband is not giving me a kind word. When think of getting a separation, I would square to my lady and if it would be square to my lady and he to separate them, I could care a lot more for him if he would only give a little of the affection I long for. TOO GOING TO KNOW. TOO GOING TO KNOW. Do you know that out of how your husband's attitude toward you has suddenly changed? Surely this is the time when you should be even more closely bound to each other, Are you sure it is not yourself who is changed? Are you as anxious to change as you are to force? Do you still try to make yourself attractive? Answer these questions before all, be patient, patience has tided many a person ever a rough place before this, and careful consideration will never give you cause for change.

"I don't want your blood on my hands," he painted, "or else I'd levy your life." Ebru's grip relaxed completely as he passed into unconsciousness. Bennet hid the hands over his head and began working them back and forth, as in the woods a drowned river swallowed his body still, the her body half bending toward the pair, transfixed in horror at what she was beholding. Bennet leaved over the prostrate form of her, and came back forth at the same time pressing in and out with his knees at the sides of the man. After a few moments of this he listened at the heart, "Thank God," he breathed. "Thank God. I'm to murder." He leaned over and listened again. The heart beats were stronger. The words Lida came out of her trance of horror and fell prostrate on the ground again. The noise of her fall brought Bennet to his senses of her presence. He turned to her. "My God," he "Lida."—Lida—Lida. Dear," he exclaimed as he lifted his arm into his arms. "Lida, Lida." He shook his head. "Lida, Lida." He shook his head. He shook her, her eyes gallant at "No," he said lifting her to her feet. "Brace up. He's not dead." And to think that he tried to kill her it was horrible, horrible, horrible. "He's not dead!" you sure he's not dead?" she asked. "His heart's heating." Bonnet reassured her. Bonnet returned to the still proclaimed conscious man, kneeled over and listened to his heart. "He'll live," he said. "His heart is stronger. We'll have to get away from here as quickly as possible. When he comes to there he no saving but kill us in cold blood. We'll go and go quickly."

Minutes become hours, dear, with your way." he said as he kissed her tender. When she had departed Bennet climbed to the cave and quickly gathered what few things he had kept there and descended. She had bade Chico have two horses brought to the front. While the maid was gone she hastily gathered what few treasures of her belongings and had them descended. She started toward her fathers room but as she approached she heard him singing in coherently and alternately cursing, gently, with surprise. Similarly she bowed at the door for an instant, uttered a prayer and was gone. As she opened the door she heard the horses stamping impatiently with surprise. She rained nightly. Quickly she mounted one and let the other to the place of meeting. Bennet was there to meet her. Without a word he mounted one and she looked at the dark, only the white ribbon of sandy road to guide them. As they started horses by side, Lida reached over and placed her hand in his. He grinned. "Riding off into the dark with my My Heart," he murmured. She pressed his in return. "Not into the dark, but through the dark into light. Truman. For there's the light of tomorrow ahead." "God keep it always light ahead," the prayed fervently. Thus they traveled for more than two hours, sometimes paused in the middle of their journey being followed. They heard nothing, however, save the screech of an owl from time to time as his slumbers were despoiled, by the noot sounds, of the distant bird last they reached Carter's.

Carter was known as the greatest grower of oats and wheat in the country, and grain church is not far from here. Dear." "i hope he'll be in" "most likely be in on a night like this." A few miles further on they passed the graveyard of the little country church. Back behind the cedars and juniper trees nestled the church They turned in at the gate. A light shone from the tuddy. Lida remained on her mount. Bennet raptured the motion of activity seen from the reflection at the study window, followed by an opening of the door while Bunting, his gray hair showing under the edges of his study cup and his shiny eyes showing his retching glasses peered into the darkness. "Who's there?" he asked shading his eyes with a hand. "It is I. Father. I've come to be married." Father Buntin smiled broadly and gently as he said, "You can't marry me, but I love you." "I usually marry couples not single men." Father Buntin continued, enjoying his joke, "Oh but, but I don't see her," he mocked. "However, come in, come in." Here he threw the door wide. Before Bennet could turn, Lida leaped from her horse and stood beside him, "There is I. Father—the other part of the contract." "Ah, daughter. It is well. I was just about to believe either the young man was having his joke with me or else he was under the influence of I." "I'm under the influence of a far greater goddess. Father." Bennet offered looking at Lida who stood beside him in the doorway, touching his arm affectionately. Come in children. Come in. Father Buntin shrewdly the face and commented: "Youth will ever fight for love, but you're running away—Wel, you're not of mind and age your own minds."

You're Bennet. —I sense it all now. You're going to come to a girl. Well, she seems well worth for—and fighting for." he added. "I take it you’re eloping." Bennet nodded. "In that case you’re in a hurry." "No, Father." "We’ll lose no time then. Daughter, stop this way.—Now join him. he commanded as they stood side by side. The ceremony was soon over and the prayer pronounced. After that, the clergyman and started for the day. Father Buntin touched Bennet at the shoulder. "You knew of the fate of poor Deysari, did you?" Bennet whirled. "No, I hope to see him in the city." "He was a saintly man. I tell all the Gods; men are not in the world. There are some great souls whose lives have been saved by God. Dr. Tansey's was one of these. I think the people are beginning to feel remorse. If his death can be saved, then God will give him God into the hearts of the people of this section and the seed he spread then Dr. Tansey will not have died with him. He will be seeing with and knowing him, that he courage to do my work have better, to be braver, and to look with more compassion on the black people, and to try to make their lives safer and if possible establish a settlement house for them." Iida, remembering her brother and sister, grew worried last week, growing worried last week too long and her brother oversteamed them when he revived, pressed Beatrice arm to which she climbed, and didn't even think? she warned. "That's right," added Father Buntin. "Don't mind a garrulous old preacher. There may be somebody, maybe you. May your lives be happy and true to God." With that he closed the door and they were again in the dark. Bennet took Lila in his arms and in long embrace she entered the door. She uttered two words, "My wife," Lila stood on tiptoe and kissed him gently, the love of her heart in her lips. He lifted her to the saddle then mounted. Scarcely had they left the distress riding away to the city, and Father Buntin had settled himself to a resumption of his studies when he heard wild breeze" of the fire down the street of singing. Father Buntin listened. The sound of hoops came toward his door. He waited till they came to the toy door when he heard the sound of someone mounting, the sound of laughter to the door and pounded loudly. (Continued Next Week) Tuesday, 5 P.

NEWEST KLAN ESTABLISHES A NEGRO BRANCH "Race Purity" Adopted As Shibboleth Instead Of "White Supremacy" BRANCHES INDEPENDENT Organizer Announces How ever They Will Have One Muncie, Ind. (Recorder News Service). "Abraham Lincoln," an auxiliary to the Independent Klan of America for Negroes was announced here today. It did not come as a surprise as the move had been anticipated for some time. It was announced by Bemenderfer, president of the Klan. Problem to be Solved Leaders of the Independent Klan declare the new Negro organization a decided step toward the solution the color protest movement. The Lincoln organization is probably the result of the Lincoln League, a local Negro organization alleged to have been a political instrument to the Ku Klux Klan last fall. Order was headed by several prominent lawyers, but before it was able to get a substantial foothold and due to the bitterness that the Negro citizens had against the Republican party and the Klan alliance, the leaders dropped the The objects and purposes, as pointed out in the organization's "national code," are "unites in fraternal bonds.

This Order respects the rights of all people to the end that all have a right to worship accustomed to the dictates of their own conscience. In announcing the movement President Bemderover said: "This movement is the time for the glimming to merge all Protestant interests, regardless of race or color, into one functioning body. The organization, with eleven bodies to govern them, but with one national arm, the Negro has been Protestant, and we have given their lives for the preservation of American ideals, and it was with this knowledge that the dependent nation has its creed 'race purity' first national convention of the Instead of 'white supremacy' that we formerly Klan Klan, with which we have severed all connections.

Carter Given Banquet By Sir Knights Selected To Serve On His Staff --- Gep. H. Carter. Major General- Commander of the uniform depart- ment, Knights and Daughters of the World, made a selection of Sir Knights to serve on his staff. These gentlemen saw fit to tender General Carter a banquet Friday evening, January the 80th, 1925, at 1914 The heads of the various military departments were invited. Colonel Hayes, Commander of Patricary Division, in his remarks said, "he has not seen this house until General Carter. He has always kept all military organizations in harmony and he has been always ready to render his services to make the work a success. General Harry P. Franklin, of the Knight Templars, speaking with the fullness of his heart, said this is the highest military honor he has ever received in Maryland, and he knew no man deserved it more than General Carter, because he knew of his work and his great success. And he shall always have his success, and he will be commended by all who were present. Mrs Hayes spoke of the General's past success. Mrs. Franklin, M. C. H. Hayes, Mrs. Cora Arl, Mrs. C. Conley, Mrs. G. H. Carter, Mrs. Hamilton Lee were present to witness the various officers commissioned. Mrs. Kosey. Imperial Worthy Mistress, was unable to be present owing to illness.

E. Conferences are asked to taboo the camp meeting, dancing, church suppers and rallies. This request was made by the Rev. E. M. Martin of Galantia Theological Seminary of Galantia, G.A., and delivered last week. According to the Rev. Dr. Martin camp meetings were at one time great occasions of worship and soul saving. Today they are held for days and sometimes for weeks, the gambler bootleger and the seducers and sellers of virtue, who go to ply their nefarious business in and around the place of meeting. In many cases these meetings are not closed without a fjif, but are held in some cases a killing.

Then we have the long array of events, such as exhibitions, card parties, loyalties contests, and rallies, in an effort to raise finances to meet the claims of the local and general church. We also have the opportunity in which we beg, plead, candle, threaten, storm, threaten, humor, sing and pray; anything to get just another "nickel" until all the spiritual values have been dissatisfied. Finally, we have the ever present help, but overworked, rally. On every corner, street, train, boat—perhaps submarine and airplane—carry the card, glean, book, subscription blank, or some other scheme for worthy, and often unworthy, causes. At plenics and entertainments, so many dings and funerals, one may expect to be met with pleas for "any amount from one cent up." Thus, the church is receiving the accusation that "professional begistration." Why this? What is the remedy? What must we do to save the church from this dilemma of financial difficulty? The answer is "The practice Christian Stewardship has the flowers of Christ and systematic giving."

Green, pastor, Calvary Baptist Church. S. S. LESSON WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT RELIGION UNIVERSALISTS—Believe that all will be saved. They reject the doctrine of the Trinity. They do not believe in Hell because Christ bore the punishment for the sins of the world and there can be no more punishment. They claim the soul is immortal and after death, it leaves the body, but remains in the same condition it was on earth, neither better or worse. The soul must progress until it consents to divine order. Each parish manages its own financial and general interests, calls and dismiss its pastors out and knows all allegiance to the State and General Conventions and the laws they enact. Baptism is either by immersion or sprinkling and Sunday is set aside as the Sabbath. "MUST SINNERS PRAY" A most interesting debate was held at the Maryland Baptist Church on Thursday, February 8th, subject, "Is it necessary for a Sinner to pray in the Church of the Lord of the Apostles, Mr. Whitman Morse, of Maryland Baptist Church, the Rev. Taylor, Fulton Baptist, Negative, Rev. Bayton, of Maryland Baptist, Miss Eleanor Burney, of St. John Baptist Church, New York City." Many Scriptural pieces were brought out in the discussions. Dr. E. C. Hicks spoke very encouragingly of the renewed interest taken in the church by the young people. Miss Burney is a member of the New England Missionary Convention. Refreshments were served at the close of the meeting. Trinity League Elects The annual election of the officers of Allen C. E.

Snow Not Cold To Barefoot Preacher ```markdown ``` Akron, Ohio—Claybourne Martin, evangelist, who calls himself the "Shoeless Prophet" arrived in here morning. Martin is over six foot tall and does not wear a hat or a pair of shoes. Many people, shivering with the cold, hop on the couch in his four feet is the picture of health, as he made his way up the streets of Akron amid the ice and snow. When questioned if the ice or snow had any effect on his feet he re-answered, "No." He does not wear a hat and says his long gray hair is enough protection from the weather. His first place of visit in Akron was the park, the beach, and after telling his story to the Judge, he was allowed to go about the city unmolested. He is about 50 years old.
