E. Taylor) New York—Dissappointment in love sent one Harlem girl out on the war- made Miss Marlon Wells, of 217 West 132nd street, lurked about the claims division of the United States War Veterans Bureau, in the Glenwood area, armed with a razor until she spied Mr. Maurice Traverse, a soldier, and before a crowd of white and colored people slashed him twice about the threen. A blood oozed in every direction women screamed and men stood in amazed wonderness. The girl hurriedly made her escape among the crowd, the incident to the police down town then, but when the girl attacked him again the afternoon of the same day as the incident to the police down town then, and slashed her the second time it really loosened up that part of his tongue left. Traverse told the detectives of the theft that he had kept company with the girl only a short while when he discovered that she was not the woman for him. Afterwards he became engaged to Miss Wells, and the same street and Miss Wells became engaged. No arrests have been made. ed Pulpits In nati On Sunday ment building was combined with the Race Relations service. Charles P. Taft, II., white, delivered the principal address. Rabbi James Heller, white, pastor of the Plum Street Temple, addressed a gathering of men and women at the colored Y. M. C. A. on West Eighth street. He declared there was no more important question than race relations before the American people at the present time. "Justice to the Negro means three things: full political rights for him in the South: abolition of restrictive social laws, and the removal of economic barriers that compel him to remain in a state of semi-servitude with no opportunity for either social or economic advancement." Rabbi Heller said. Negro in Exile James Robinson, executive secretary of the Negro Civic Welfare Association, spoke Sunday night at the nshing on Posebishierian Church in Memphis, where Rev. A. E. Williams, pastor, Mr. Robinson's theme was "By the Rivers of Babylon." in which he declared that the Negro, although legally free, was in exile so long as he was in the South. Mr. Robinson said that the Negro has within him great possibilities for good, not only for his own development but for humanity in general. He asserted that all that was lacked and enterprise was a core to this talent and enterprise was a core to this elegant attitude in race relationships. Other churches where the day was observed were Church of United Brethren, white, which was addressed by the Rev. R. W. Overton; the Walnut Hills Congregational Church, white, where Mrs. Josephine M. Norum, chairman of the Committee of the West End of the city as Social Service, spoke on the condolated to the Negro population, and the State Avenue Methodist Church, whose pastor, the Rev. C. M.

Du Bois, Alain Locke, Kelly Miller, Among Contributors. (Exclusively by N. A. A. C. P. Press Service) New York—The entire March issue of the Survey Graphic Magazine, its "Harlem Number," is devoted to the Negro and his history and present activities in New York City, it was announced that contributors to this number are three members of the staff of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. James Weldon Johnson, Walter White and Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois, the S. E. Johnson, of the Urban League, Professor Alain Locke, W. A. Domingo, Kelly Miller, Professor Melviel J. Herskovits, J. A. Rogers, Konrad Bercovelt, Geo E. Haynes and others. Poems are by Councee Cultuire McKay, Jean Toomer and Longsten Hughes. MAKING OF HARLEM James Weldon Johnson, writing on "The Making of Harlem", traces his rapid development during the last decade. Mr. Johnson shows how the colored population starting in the lower part of Manhattan, in what is known as Greenwich Village, moved Northward, to the Twenties and Thirties, then to Fifty-third Street, where the colored actors and musicians used to gather and how finally in 1994, the shift to the present Harlem began, until at present, according to an estimate made by John E. Nail, successful real estate dealer in Harlem, colored people own and control more than 50 million dollars worth of property there. "To my mind," writes Mr. Johnson, "Harlem is more than a Negro community; it is a large scale laboratory experiment in the race problem. The statement has often been made that if Negroes were transported to the North in large numbers the race problem with all of its acuteness and new aspects would be transferred with them. Well, 175,000 Negroes live close together in Harlem; in the heart of New York, 15,000 more than live in any Southern city, and do so without "I believe that the Negro's advantages and opportunities are greater in Harlem than in any other place in the country, and that Harlem will become the intellectual, the cultural and the financial center for Negroes of the Cultured States, and will exert a vital influence upon the Negro people of the country." DR. DU BOIS Dr. Dubois, in an article entitled "The Black Man Brings His Gifts," contributes a biting and amusing dialogue between Indiana people, proposing that the Negro should finally deciding that they cannot do if because they would have to give the Negro too large, a share, because of his part in the building of America. COLOR LINES Mr. White's essay, called "Color Lines," narrates experiences of educated colored people with the color line and indicates what the effect upon them would be. Mr. White's essay, written of the spiritual emancipation among colored people that is now in progress, "The day of 'aunties,' 'uncles' and mammies" is come, pass on, and are held in the "Colonel and 'George' play barnstorm roles from which they escape with relief when the public spotlight is off. The popular melodrama has about scrap the frictions, garret the boggs and settle down to a realistic facing of facts." In "Check Workers and the City" Mr. Charles S. Johnson traces the development of a city type of Negro. Heinds that a large percentage of Negroes in the city are confined to "blindly" jobs offering little or no opportunity to trade in jobs largely closed to Negroes. Other contributors to the "Harlem Number" of the Survey Graphis are: Robert Miller; of Race Records Kelley Miller; of the Verge Digs in His Past" by Arthur A. Schumburg; "The Dilemma of Social Pattern" by Professor Herskovitz; "The Rhythm of Harlem" by Winston Lance; and pushed in the City" by Winthrop Lance and articles and illustrations, by Eunice Huntin, George E. Haynes, W. A. Domingo, Winold A. Ociss, and Albert C. Medical Officers Tells Why He Is Opposed To Black Colonel (By G. E. Taylor) New York, N. Y.—The fight for colored men to officer the lath or black Regiment, was waged on all sides, possibly with some or no sincerity of purpose. Illustrated Press was given to understand late Friday night at Matthews, colored. Servant of the Medical 'Corps, that the time was not some time, we have to command the We have not got in the outfit that is fit for a colony. It requires more than million ability. He must be a man that can demand and command that. These people on the outside do not know what they are talking about. You mean, he must be a millionaire! "Well, not exactly, but he must have money. We are now looking for an administrative building to the new army, and we can we get him to put it through." Nowhere in the recital. How about "Mayor Jackson" I asked. "Huh auh?" he explained. "We just want to get the price. Taint a colored officer the whole outfit. I told you, I can ask the job. When the time comes, you have to go outside of New York to get one man, and that is Lieutenant Colonel Filmore. But he has to get himself with us and his people." The officer answered only that he could not talk but so much. Equity Congress, the greater civil and political organization of color in New York, gave out the statement. Battle for Peace Equity Congress is having an important discussion about officers for the Fifteenth New York State Assembly, but there is evidence some understanding in regard to its purpose. The Congress individual one is addressing the petition is to secure all officer officers for the regiment, now and henceforth. The petition recommends for promotion of certain officers now in the regiment, but solely as a basis for granting the ball rolling, and because it ensures the proper qualifications to fill the offices. But the fight is for no special individual or group of men; it is for a special cadre of officers for the education for generations to come matters not who may be assigned to the various offices, so long as they are affiliated in every way. Officers Right Here An article in last week's Amsterdam News by Hon. Pope B. Hippie, Commissioner of the 21st Assembly District, suggests that the country be called to give the necessary number of equities and of securities by Equity Congress reveals that we have here in the various boroughs comprising the city of New York that 100,000 of its securities law of New York for appointment as officers, and that 22 of those are qualified for field officers. We are required material right in our mids. Politics Involved But here follows an unmissible significant official statement from the Congress. The best citizens of the country, and the Congress promises to turn the light of publicity on all opposition emanating from a purely political or from the desire to accomplish the best hectare of land on account of some unpleasant point of party detail. There are always men in politics who are willing, solely on the ground of the defeat of any movement for the establishment or advancement of the Congress is fighting in the open for a highly meritorious cause, and will be kept informed of all places. 111 IN STREET New York - George Adam - 19 22 W. 144th street, was struck on 19th street and Fifth avenue.

The Senate Senator Walsh, of Montana, inquired of Senator Philips "what the work of construction is that is being outside of within and just outside of the Tidal Banks." Senator Philips advised him that "it was deemed essential to provide facilities for the colored residents of the District, as otherwise they would demand their full and equal right to swim, which is now established and in use." "Desecrated" Senator Walsh then replied that he was "autostained to learn that the Tidal Basin is to be desecrated—no other word will characterize it better than the insistence in the most conspicuous place about the entire Basin of a bathing beach for the colored population of the city of Washington." He was on day when consideration of the District appropriations bill was resumed. Senator Walsh offered his amendments. He stated to the Senate that he wished to "dispel, this subject upon the attention of the Senate again, as I did yesterday morning. I am actuated by the slightest hostility to or the slightest aversion for the colored people in the city, based his opposition to any bathing beach in the Tidal Basin upon the grounds that it marred the beauty of Potomac Park as well as the Tidal Basin and is a menace to the public Pepper Surprises Senator Pepper, Republican, of Pennsylvania, took the view that while there should be equality of treatment of the two races, "any race should be treated with little short of a disgrace to the community, both from the point of view of hygiene and from the point of view of desecrating a place that ought to be conserved to beauty." Senator Walsh of New York, declared that if the proposal of Senator Walsh related "purely to the closing of the basin to colored people and does not conemplate a place for white people, there for the use of white people, I am in bitter opposition." He insisted that this matter should be considered "purely as it affects all races and the health of all peo- No Danger—Copeland He gave as his opinion that there was no danger involved in the use of the Tidal Basin for bathing and before he required the use of the basin to contrain the use of the basin by the colored people or by others on a sanitary ground. None of the Senators made the point during the debate on separate bathing beaches by the Government was wrong in principle. On the other hand, it is proposed to establish separate bathing beaches at some other place, presumably the People's Park in the South of the basin, it will be at least four years before free bathing facilities can be established anywhere in the District. Meantime, he said, there will be promiscuous use over the Eastern Branch for bathing by both white and colored. The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly A.

Thomas, newly elected President of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has written to the city librarian, Dr. George Bowerman, asking him to remove the colored people who are now denied work by the library system. Mr. Thomas' letter is in part as follows: "You maintain two expensive public institutions from which the colored people are enrolled.

The Senate has approved the conference report. It is understood that the conferences are not an appropriation reported providing for the establishment of temporary bathing beaches on some point at the Potomac River. It is planned, according to Leutenant Col. Clarence O. Sherill, the officer in charge of the emergency appropriation to ask for an emergency appropriation of $40,000. This will be necessary. It is planned at the white bathing beach and remove the construction already begun on the new bathing beach. It is planned ultimately to locate separate bathing beaches on Columbia island, on the Virginia coast, and on the Potomac River, to determine the practicability and desirability of locating the beaches and to date and time the Congress convenes next December.

Hayes, of 449 N street, northwest, lost $1,240, his life's savings, unclaimed until next Friday morning. The trio, whom Detective Paul Jones addressed at 135 West Fort-second street, confidence men in the game, are William Brown Brooks, who gave his address at 135 West Fort-second street, Barre St. Cincinnati, and James W.

Detective Joe operates in the East principally around New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore, according to the story told by their victim, two of them posed as "gentlemen of means." They had two fathers, one with a dollar bill around it and the other with a two dollar bill around it and the other with a dollar bill around it and supposed to be a "bluck" with a lot of money and no idea of what to do with. The first two men suggested to Hayes that they start a crop bill and take it to the plot. He lost $160, which he had on his person at the time and then went to the bank and drew out $1,100, which The three men were arrested in Norfolk. Hayes describes the incident as the "rogues gallery" and got a photograph of the men.

In which the two livers are united in there are a number of thoroughly dramatic and memorable scenes of tremendous effect when the desperate urge that he is not the father of her child In a romantic tale of mythical kingdom entitled "Tter Love Story," Gloria Swanson comes to the Regent next Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The scene in which the two livers are united in the gypsy camp is uncommon. There are a number of thoroughly dramatic situations and pungent thrills, the action moves briskly and a big emotional punch is put over with tremendous effect. The livers are the father of her child. The return of the lover, his rescue of Marie, the carrying-off of the baby boy follow in due course and a satisfactory happy climax is attained. The role of Princess Marie is something altogether different from previous characterizations contributed to the screen by Miss Swanson, who displays her ceratilite beauty in a singing and dancing life in clunging type of girl. She is well supported, Jan Keith appearing to excellent advantage as the young captain of the king's guards, and George Fawcett and Echlin Gayer giving clean-cut, convincing portrayals respectively as the Archduke and king.

Foulks came to America in 1908 and to further his ambition to write plays, entered Harlem Evening High School. He managed to earn some money at the trade of shoemaking, which he had learned as a boy. He has also tried to engrave a volume of verse. During his high school course he memorized chapters of "Coaster's Commentaries" and "Cleere's Orations" in Latin and gave the translations in English. A gratifying tribute was paid Foulks by a letter received from the queen of England in acknowledgment of a poem written as tribute to her majesty. This excerpt written by the young man was selected from the book which he now has in preparation: In my garden of love a red rose is blooming. Its fragrance delightful, the garden perfuming. Enhances its beauty so rare. Around it and near it other flowers are · Sending forth their perfumes to the air; but amidst them the red rose with beauty in glowing. For with it they cannot compare.

It is not easy to get acquainted with people who were only a few years ago enemies at war, especially when those people suffered defeat, when they were night in Germany, I learned something of them. After seeing France, France the victorious, it would hardly seem that Germany had lost the war. In Germany there is occupation by arrogance and a lack of devastation of agricultural lands, no villages razed to the ground, no cities shelled by day and bombed by night. Germany's loss aside from men and money has been in commerce and foreign possession, and now these latter, she is fast recuperating. Germany's ships are carrying German cargoes all over the world again. In trade she is not realizing the profits of pre-war days but the market is being made in Germany. German goods are for sale everywhere. These people are thrifty, thrifty as the Japs are thrifty, and more energetic. Realizing the hugeness of the national debt the people are putting their shoulders to the wheel and the engine of state turns, slowly, pounding out with increasing momentum.

I was in the offices of one of the rich men in Northern Germany, who appear rich of appearance, there was nothing in the whole building to compare with the office of a Los Angeles real estate dealer, and when this multi-millionaire left his office for his home, I saw him board a street car while And of the colonies in Africa, I was told by at least three men high in the affairs of the German government, that Germany would soon have possession of her colonies again. I was able to attend educational in Germany that German rule was preferable to British or French. I do not vouch for the truth of these statement, I merely record them.

ASKS DI believes Black Turks Defeat In 1914 From a man who had retired a major after four years at the front, I learned something of the effect of America's entry into the great conflict. When America went in Germany had the upper hand. The entry of the new ally made Germany the more anxious we could get and guns into the field. German troops pressed forward until they were once more in sight of Paris. And then the miracle! Black troops were nothing new; the French Senegal and the British Colonials had long been in the field. Now from the States had come those who had the supply ships. They were not fighters, but they had been called from the docks and hurled into the trenches to stop the German. They were big, strong and clean, and while they had not been taught to fight, they knew nothing of fear and danger. They stayed and diced. The time held. Germany hated the black Americans, because they had saved the cause of the Allies when nothing else could. EXCURSION STEAMERS AEE READY NOW EXCURSION STEAMERS AEE READY NOW The steamer E.

Those reviewers on the dailies who are ever wont to offer unasked for advice as to what lines Negro artists should follow in their entertaining, are singularly quiet about the two instances cited in the paragraph above. The Maryland Apropos the Maryland we are glad to learn that colored ushers were doing duty in the second balcony last week. The soft drink vendors were also colored in both the first and second balconies. This shows appreciation of Negro patronage to a greater degree than any similar theatre in the city thus far playing to mixed patronage. Mr. Schanberger has proved that he is in the right place since his financing of the "Demi-Virgin" The former segregation policy has been abandoned in the second balcony due to the commonsense of Mr. Schanberger. Owner's "One-Way" Pockets We comment on the above because there has been a general disposition of some local owners to always be on the receiving end where the colored patron was concerned, and to return as little as possible. Segregated facilities will hold no brief for the humiliation it inflicts, but we consider logical conditions, and since we REFUSE TO PATRONIZE THE DOUGLASS, one can but appreciate those white managers who endeavor to, at least, make their separate sections equal in accommodation.

Dramatic Class At Boston School The Dramatic Department added to the Ancrum School of Mustic, Boston, this year is about to begin the second semester of its activities. This department, under Miss Rose B. Mansfield, white, of the faculty, produces plays and sketches for public presentations. Those taking part in the presentation derive adequate instruction and practice in writing and general platform department. Several plays have been given this season. The last play being "The Door," a comedy by Anton Tchekoff. The course of study for the department provides definite training in regard to appearance, including the principles of poise, bowing, etc. Principles of pantomine and gesture, plays done in pantomine, principles of classical and modern drama. Stage business and stage technique, costumes, etc. Miss Mansfield is not only an efficient dramatic coach, but comes to the Ancrum School as an artist of ability and experience, having toured the Pacific Coast as a dramatic reader. Miss Mansfield was trained and is thus Emerson College, of Boston, and is thus employed to instruct classes in technique of stage, emotional and vocal response so essential in developing dramatic talent. This splendid addition to the work of those striving for the training of young colored men and women in stagecraft is halled with enthusiasm by those interested in securing the best to be obtained in the art of drama. Like the Ethiopian Art Theatre in New York City, the faculty of the Ancrum School is composed of both races.

WEISBERG'S GENERAL STORE 522 PEARL STREET Baltimore, Maryland COR. PENNA. AVE. "Sunshine Sammy," reputed to have an income of $25,000 a year, turned crowds away last week in the Lyric Theatre New Orleans, where he is playing. Known to the public only Sammy, Freder Ernest Morris is his name, he addressed "Earnie" by H. David and Florence was discover during the engagement in New Orleans that the little fellow is rabid picture for of the picture of which he is part, he has Known to the public only as Sammy, Frederic Ernest Morrison Morrison is the address he "earns" for his sisters, Dorothy and Florence. It was discovered during the en- ergy of the Orleans that the little fellow is a rabid picture fan. Of the pictures of which he is a particular choice. Before Sammy could count money, he was drawing a salary of $25.00 per week. He earns 20 times as much now and is still a normal youngster with a kid's likes of puzzles, Miss Friederich and cross-word puzzles. Miss Friederich has said that he studied between pictures, the making of his pictures. She says he is very smart and mathematics is his favorite study. He also likes history and geography. Harold Barquet, Sammy's partner is in a dance troupe, a dance performer. Sammy sings "Dixie's Favorite Son," and the pair pull some clever prohibition gags. Mr. and Mrs. Morrison, both attended the Flake Public School and the New Orleans for Los Angeles, they had no idea that their son was to be the highest paid child starlet in the world. Soon after their arrival in the West, "Baby Marle," Osborne wanted a colored child to be the highest paid and Sammy's future was assured. 18 BROWN AND BROWN CO. 18 PEOPLE WITH A SPECIAL BEAUTY CHORUS PEOPLE Wednesday—Thursday—Friday—Saturday THE GREATEST PICTURE THE SCREEN HAS SEEN PLAYED THE ACADEMY 6 WEEKS AT $1.65 WITH NO ADVANCE IN PRICES AT THE REGENT.

REGENT A typical holiday crowd: good matured and on pleasure bent filled the Regent Theatre to capacity on Monday afternoon and night, so many people have been held over for the second week reinforced by two additional acts. The routine followed this week succeeded in pleasing the customers, not a difficult task at a holiday perimeter. The quartet" from East Baltimore, "wrecked the matiness with some four part harmonies. The contralto with these girls proved to be a wow moment, and the names that the count was lost. Hattie Spriggs, Marie Spriggs, Romena Robinson and Elsie Brown, are the members. A mixed double act arrived too late for matinee, but went on at the performance. They also armmed the house. Sammy got to them with "Nobody Knows The Way I Feel This Morning," Sammy stands "aaces high" with the ilegent buyers, and can sell them anything he offers. Summing up the entertainment offered this week, it seems to me that please the customers; and that we have been taught to believe is the end of all such endeavors. STAR The War Cross, with as many extra palms as it can "tote" should be handed Mr. Berger for the splendid bill that he has booked in the Monument Street house the week. And besides the entire bill is clean as a newly laundered shirt font. Moatner and Boatner open with a singing act that approaches the last word in melody and harmony in their duos. The pair is as neat as the proverbial pin, and should body's bill. In the second duet, the male member seemed slightly off key. However that wasn't wicked in view of their general excellence. Crackshot and Hunter, the cleverest act top-notchers on any time, massacred playing this time, and one of the that bill. From entrance of the Shot and the elusive Hunter as poplar in Old Town as Eddie Meyers. A fitting closing for the bill were Davenport and Carr. Davenport is a most unusual pianist. Monday afternoon, this fellow is the gambler of the house blues "Nevin's Rosary." An unusually clever ending is placed at the end of the turn; Miss Carr affecting to be against all but the best in music, and her sudden exposure by Davenport played an idio number though she protested that she had never heard the "blues." This bill is as near perfection as it is humanly possible to frame on houses. It's a "hot" hook-up I am telling you. Choristers and often principals engaged in the 'tabloid' shows playing the small houses have not learned that a little skill in makeup would improve their appearance. In many houses the last row of seats is not more than 30 feet from the stage, causing the rouge and powder to be too plainly visible. Especially is the effect hideous when inartistically applied. The appearance of the makeup to those occupying the first seven or eight rows in doubly grotesque. Particularly is this true when spots and floods are centered on the artists. Dixie Singers At St. Paul's The Dixie Jubilee Singers appeared in concert before a capacity audience at St. Paul's M. E. Church on last Friday evening. The program embraced Spiritual and Jubilee songs and readings from Dunbar. The embraced Spiritual and the "Hand Me Down My Silver Trumpet Gabriel."

Mrs. Bertha Powell was the solosist for the latter, a Cornell Hall and Miss Jessie Simmons sang "Lovelight Lane," anmr. Phillip Paterson was solosist for "Heaven." "Steal Away" and Oh. Lord, I've Done What You Told Me To Do." The audience demanded a repetition of all the numbers programmed. "Circus Fever" Gang's Latest "Our Gang" is the usual riot in "Circus Fever," their latest release. Their next picture will be a Wild West story. Farina and Eugene Jackson, the latter "Sunshine Sammy's" successor, are, as usual, moving spirits in both pictures. Johnny Downs, white, was chosen from a list of 50 applicants as the seventh member of the company. The "Gang" has been organized three years. From Effie May Moore Miss Effie May Moore writes that she and her partner, "Rastus" Wingfield are back to the Temple in Cleveland. This is the third engage- gage gift in this house in as many months. men of the organization. The engagement played at the Grand in Chicago in January, the artist says, was the pleasantest that she has ever filled. Charles S. Glippa was the headliner, with the "Follow Me" Four, DeLoach and Corbin Davis, Wilson and Giles and Wingfield and which it compelled to cancel a large number of shows in which it received from the Roberts and Yates Choirs the illness of Miss Moore's partner in Baltimore, after she has filled a few more engage Sorris and Mitchell's "Melody Girls" are carrying on down Virginia way.

Lawrence Queen Stars "Go Down Moses," sung by Mr. Lawrence Queen, thrilled the audience and from the first note of the organ by W. L. Wilson the attention was centered on the singer. In response to insistent demand, he joined the voice standing out hopeful, triumphant against the sombre background woven by the artist at the org. The chant by the Gloe Club was well rendered, the main point for praise being the Schottische, and the lifting air of "Over The Summer Sea," received instant favor. "Arrangement and rendition of "Rocked" and Cradle of the Deep" were very good. However, the lead voices, being outnumbered, often obscure the singer's elongation. Solos in French and German by Mr. Lawrence Fulley were heartily applauded, also a correct solo, "Goodbye," by Mr. Arquit Washington. Other numbers completed a program that was indeed complimentary to the untiring efforts of director, participant and student. With the recital of last Sunday, the Douglas Orchestra and Glee Club have set a mark of excellence that successors will find difficult to approach. ACE FOLK SONG BOOKS NOW AVAILABLE Interest Among Singers Of Both Races Prompts Article By Community Bureau LIST AT AFRO More Than Dozen Volumes Have Been Compiled For Singers, Choirs, Glee Clubs New York, (Community Service)—It is hoped that the growing interest in Negro music may lead to the performance of it by both the colored groups, which are the best interpreters of the distinctively Negro music and by the white groups, which may perform many of such works with good effect. How To Sing Spirituals In the latter case, it is well for such groups to bear in mind the best acquainted with the inner spirit of the Negro Spirituals. The best way for compositions is to sing them naturally and without any attempts to imitate the spontaneous performance by the colored themselves. Used By Churches And Clubs Has been the past eight years, there has been a steady increase in the number of students over to the sacred compositions of Negro composers for vocal solo, chorus etc. An effective representation is given to these people through the singing of contributions of Negro composers. Emotional significance of Spirituals, authentically performed without feeling the deep spiritual significance of these folk songs, makes the nature and experience of the people from whom they have sprung. As Harry T. Burleigh, one of the leaders of the Spirituals has pointed out, "More than ever today the spirituals ought to be sung because they supply a post to the music in the midst of the post-maternalism." The authentic interpretation of the spirituals, therefore, is one in view of this motif of exaltation. Collections Of Spirituals Groups desiring to take up the study and performance of Negro Spirituals may best utilize existing collections of music and organizations of music in the offices from various persons and organizations desiring to obtain these songs in book form.

"His face is free of marks." I cannot answer underwriter. I did look, and, sure enough, there was the swollen ridge like a mountain. "I wish you'd come yesterday," went on the younger undertaker."I could have shown you his body.

Y.-Hurtig and Seamon encouraged by the success of "Seven-Eleven" added a colored section to "The Fast Steppers" for the engagement at the 125th Street theater. This section of the performance was provided by George Innermann's "Console II" floor and floor club with club with which the public has become well acquainted through the medium of its weekly rainy stage show with the orchestra seated unstage in a funnier interior. The public came a bit accustomed to the pop and speed that characterizes Negro choruses, and to the lively, energetic sound so there was no surprise element in that connection. The significant features of the hour and half of the show, including talk, talk save for the fifty words of introduction by Leonard Harper, the producer of the show, and the gentle lead up to a song number. The next particularly noticeable feature was the dainty and uniform beauty of the choristers. It was as nice a colorful ensemble as but the gentle lead up to a song number. The management had exercised taste and used a thyme sum in ostunming them as a fragrant accent. The net opened with the band under Leo's personal direction, two women dressed in black, acknowledged a reception hand. Harper's speech ending with a song, Hula Hoop, followed this in a Mammys characterization singing "There's Only Love." The band danced to the later dance to the refrain. The choristers followed in an old fashioned minuet costumed us was Miss. Moozy and the lead singer was Wheaton and Bradley, a dancing team, then hit a solo step that went on for a while, especially favored with applause. CLEVER CAST An orchestra number was put in at this juncture, one that permitted the several musicians to demonstrate their individual abilities. "Fats" Waller, a rouand genial looking pianist creating grins the while with his eccentricities at that Instrument. "Mexico" a costumed number with Leonard Harper doing a dance number was next and the colorful bit served to establish Bessie Allison as a little dancing mistress of a unique type, for whom there is every reason to expect a great future. She has a great piquancy and a nice mastery of her steps. Billy Mitchell, the boy with the insane feet" whom the audience thought must be otherwise insane as well, simply floted them with his nonsensical delivery of "Sweet Jodine" and "My Little Dog" and his peculiar dances made possible by his double jointed ankles. The dance team and a chorus number featuring the Charleston followed him after he had declined encores. Then came the Three Eddies and those bespectacled black faced boys walked away with their auditors for they had received substituting grotesque minimery for talk which was equivalent to a big drink minus the froth. Then the girls, again, this time, in the familiar Hawaiian number made famous by the Florence Mills Company leading to a finale that sent the folks pleased, a fact that was indicated by comments freely passed between departing patrons.

Her name is Pola Negri. She is, in many instances, the sole ruler d'etre of the films that make her salary. We have never seen Charlie Chaplin in or out of the pictures. But in our limited experience, Miss Negri has been as the only biscuits she has succeeded. This Bara as a vamp and, although she claims Polish descent, we'd quibble over a name and declare that both Cleopatra and Nerfritti, butt's queen, were Negris We refer to her as a tool because in most stories in which we have seen her, she has been picked to do work that she would do. She performs a bold mission. If our memory serves us correctly, we see her in "The Passion Flower," "Bella Donna," "East of Suez," and "picture playback" character. One of the principal qualities in all three is that of the hare-brained, love-struck woman and the motif two is the profitable relation between the greater and against some other darker group. Sometimes she loses in her game of love, but most often she drags the flag of white superiority in the great triumph when the dark man may be thoroughly humiliated. That was the burden of "Bella Donna." That is the theme of "East of Suez." Pobble is the illegitimate result of chandlestine relations between her father, a well-to-do Englishman doing business in the Chinese empire, and her mother, her father's Chinese, and it is said there was marriage. The report of it puts the, English father out of caste with other Englishmen. He sends his Eurasian mother to the village where she stays until she is grown and then decides to return. He dies shortly after receiving the news that she has set sail. The daughter arrives in China thinking that she is shrunken. While men love her, Chinese men love her. Ultimately, she learns that her maid is her mother, that instead of being married before her mirror, rubs her skin and looks at her eyes, looking for the oriental slant. She does not want to be Chinese. She wants to be what she has learned, to travel, circumstances are worked around where she can be white. She is beautiful and the white race wins her, one of those handsome English attaches. She learns how her loss her and with him down goes the yellow race. That is the white man's business; to prove that he is always right, to prove that he is always wrong; to lose; to have all of beauty, even with a touch of Chinese or Negro; to be ever strong, never weak; to be the force that makes me strong; to be the nausea that makes me strong; to prove it. In her vampish way, she lets the races of men fight for her. She is glutton for wine, she is glutton for gin although Bourbon is never far behind. The relations of men are a bit of Chantilly laces and Pola is a little. Fine, little round-headed, with a little nose, pictures and see dark lovers, servants and losers, and grow up to be disillusioned. The wager were an American she could join the Ku Kiu Kian. Now she can only entertain it and make it blow it is right. East of Seuz, here, there, everywhere, be it enlightened, the white man is triumphant. Dixie Broadway "Dixie to Broadway," now in its sixth week at the Broadhurst Theatre, Philadelphia, grossed $11,000,000. The production may easily pull two months.

THE WEEKLY NEWS It is not always given to young women to choose their race, but these two young women did. One went into the white race and one into the colored. Somewhere in the South they go their way of daily life, the color line between. They had the same parents, one white and one colored. MIDNIGHT SHOWS --- By JAMES A. (Billboard) JACKSON (For The A. N. P.) In a recent exchange, one of the colored newspapers that maintains a theatrical department, we have read a lengthy article upon the complaint from the colored newspaper with being required to do a midnight show without, in their complaint was stated, receiving any extra compensation for the extra performance. There is one complaint, it is one with an interesting history. The performers really have themselves to blame for the imposition from which they suffer. While the artist was in Chicago, performers of the company brought the same matter to the attention of the Page in a round robin letter to the writer, who complained against a Sunday Midnight show in Philadelphia that either oblited them to miss the next week's work or to go to the new performance that concluded in the early morning hours followed by a train ride, the anxieties attendant upon the transportation of bags began to surface. The orchestra all of which brought them just about to the hour of the opening performance without sleep and even trade journals that reach the eyes of all the show world, so long as the artist is too indifferent to his own welfare to take the obvious steps almost everyone but him has taken.

WILL GRIP YOU AND HOLD YOUR INTENSE INTEREST Metro Pictures GETS DAMAGES The Negro performer is the only unprotected element of the show business. They have been too cheap or too indifferent to join the white organizations that have held their doors open to them, and too foolish to strengthen with their membership the Colored Actors Union. Through interviews with the executive secretary, we know that the Actors Equity Society, and the Black Women's Fund, very few have joined. The Colored Actors Union has pleaded for them. Either could provide the protection craved for in this respect, and assume responsibility for them unless could wade alone. Managers respond to tangible pressure, not to back door vaporizing. It takes treasuries that can employ legal and other talent, numbers that can cripple a man's business, and elements with intelligent action. When a show is stranded, the musicians have no trouble in collecting their due: the stage hands and electrics are limited, the less favored. The press agents are organized; and so are billopsters and billiers. Even the treasurers who pay for the show have to do And, they all pay direct dues to a central body that provides the protection that our performers long for. They are not the only ones who does it seem to occur to them to furnish their own means of defense. Why will people pay big sums for their performances? Because of the large amounts on "big-dining" when they decline to spend a comparatively small sum to protect and imitate their performers, again, we cry, wake up, LEAVES HOSPITAL Mr. James Williams, of 639 N.

ROOSEVELT 11 YEAR MISSISSIPP COURT BATTLE ENDS Supreme Court Finally Settles Last Case Under Masonic Recievership 1000 ACRES INVOLVED Sale Consummated Befon Lodge Failed Held In Gooi Faith Jackson, Miss.—(Special to A. M. The Supreme Court of this State has just disposed of the last assets of the Masonic Benefit Association of the Stringer Grand Lodge of Masons of Mississippi by awarding to attorneys D. W. Diamond of Jackson, 1000 acres of Mississippi land. In the hay day of Mississippi ascert orders, none occupied a more prominent position on the platform of fraternalism than the M. W.

Banks. Treasurer But in 1914, while the late Charles Banks, one of the founders of Mount Bayou, was secretary-treasurer, of the Masonic Benefit Association, and a member of the nature society, Bishop E. W. Lampon, who has been Grand Master of the Stringa Grand Lodge, the benefit department was forced into the hands of a receiver. In the meantime, all of the assets of the order had been disposed of among which were 1000 acres of fertile Yazoo Mississippi Delta land which had been ordered sold by the Grand Lodge. It happened that the benefactor, Charles Banks, of Mount Bayou bought the land. Sold to Perry Howard Later this land was sold by Francis to Perry Howard, Assistant U. S Attorney General, J. Howard, S. Attorney General, and others who conveyed title to Attorney S. D Redmond, when this was done, a group of Masons, with the receiver filed a bill to have the sale to Francis set aside and the title deed awarded, alleging that the transaction was fraudulent. The case attracted considerable attention and was hard fought. The lower court decided that with the sale, the land would be voidable and allowed the receiver to elect within 60 days to pay Attorney Redmond the sum paid for the land and improvements, and to sell the land, or the land would automatically become the property of Redmond. From this decree Attorney Redmond appealed to the Supreme Court that he had been an equitable title conveyed by the Grand Lodge, and the land was therefore declared to belong to Attorney Redmond. With the receivership, went along the homes "Home, which was maintained at Jackson by the Stranger Lodge.

The Chicago "40" club was replaced due to cancelled contracts in Philadelphia and New York, but anybody cared after the brand of ball hiked Monday night by the "Five Horsesmen," former Wendell Phillips students from the Windy City. "Duck" Gibson was referee and at the creek of the pool there were at the start and at the half pole the Horsesmen by a mighty hip were ahead by a nose, the score reading 12 to 10. Sced and Stamina Speed and stamina told in the long game. The Horsemen were not outplayed but they weakened in the last stretch. The Greeks grasped their opportunity and kept the visitors going at a furious pace, visiting team after team, their last legs and was about to give up. At the barrier, the "Horsemen" at the pace which was a killing one. It was more than either team could stand, but, the Greeks beat them at their own game, and gradualy increased their own liking to their opponents tired. Simpson, the big forward, drew first blood after 50 seconds of play by basking the sphere into the basin on a lightning pass from Johnson, but Keller retaliated, deadlocking the score and they were running. Due to the terrible pace many comparatively easy shots were missed by both teams and out of 15 tries the Athens made only six free throws, while the visiting team was successful there times out of nine. Spears looke the deadlock and Batter drew a foul, Spears making a free throw which put the local dugout on the mission Phillips and Spears laced doubledeckers followed by a free throw by Johnson from the foul line and a moon went up as the spears board read 10-2 against the For the first time "Chippy" Tayler managed to break through the almost nighttime defense of the invaders and sent the ball through the net missing the spirits of the fans as well as the score to 10-4. Keller tallied again, but Spears duplicated ending the half session. "Bell Harr and just before the whirlwind show its rose almost the halls of the inmates when he broke through the lines, then caught the five man defense, brought the score within points of a tie before the whistle beckoned. Brown and Wheatley In the second half "Cutey" Brown and Tom Wheatley, new additions from the Scholastics took the floor and proved their ability to hold their own in fast company. Brown drew a foul, made the free throws and for the second time the ball was tied fresh from the floor and with a slight edge after Brown had made two more points from the foul line, the Greeks began to force the Horsemen, who showed signs of weakening. Simpson was sent out of the game for four personalities, but not before causing the ball in a beautiful but difficult back shot that brought repeated applause. From then on the Greeks had things their own way and with a comfortable lead with about three minutes to play began to freeze, with the ball followed by Brown added two more goals for good measure, as the final whistle sounded. The Preliminary In the preliminary, Douglass high school defeated Minor Normal by a 10-5 score in the third game of the season, and the second won by Douglass. At the end of the first period Minor was ahead of a 11-10 score. Minor played Douglass in the second and kept a slight Coach Gibbs score of 10 men trying to hit on a good combination. This repeated changing hand-rupped the boys and kept them watching the coach instead of the coach, and the combination was struck that successfully held the Normal lads at bay.

MASONIC WAR ON Kansas City, Mo.—All fraternal relations between Masons of Missouri and Kansas have been severed and never injured. Each State grand master claimed the other infringed upon his jurisdiction. nts In P. A. L. hletics, In '24 HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE WORTH A MILLION HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE WORTH A MILLION Risk Crown By SPARROW McGANN In The Washington Star New York City—The title of heavyweight champion of the world is worth, at a conservative estimate, a million-odd mills of cash. Hence the crown is a very valuable possession. Hence, also, when the titleholder's manager consents to let him enter the ring in a title bout, you can bet your bottom dollar on his manager's ticket is going to win it. When this assurance does not exist, well, then, no fight. The writer has taken a long time to make up his mind, but, having seen quite a little of Harry Wills lately, and having balanced back his relating back Dempsey, he has come to the conclusion that the odds are too even for Kearns, Dempsey and company to risk a battle for the next year or so, at least. Looking back over the evidence, there is no escaping the conclusion that Kearns, upon more than one occasion, has side-stepped himself, he could be great deal of money by meeting him. Color Line Is Bunk The color line is bunk. Kearns would hurry his champion into the ring against a plain man if he that his fighter had at least a two-to-one chance of winning the cash inducement, enough. Answer is that Wills is very strong, the strongest man in the prize ring, and combined with this strength is a vast amount of skill sufficient to provide liability to the opponent pretty well tied up through 15 rounds. Even the champion, hard hitter though he unquestionably is, cannot knock out a man if he is unable to land a telling blow. Probably Demsney could stand anything Wills could send in, that is, he would not be knocked out; but he would stand the best chance in the world of being outpointed. And think of losing a job between two millions a year in minutes! It's enough to make the hardest-boiled manager shiver. Gratitude vs. Interest As a matter of fact, Kearns, Dempsey and Company are torn between gratitude and self-interest. They would like to put Wills in line for a big piece of change, not so much because of Wills, as because of his manager, good old Paddy Wullins. Mullins had always liked both Kearns and Dempsey, and they have for him that respect to which an honest manager like Mullins, a manager who is a square shooter every minute of the day, is entitled. But they have more than respect. And this is why: Remember a few years ago when Dempsey was to meet a third-rater over the four-round route in an exhibition bout for charity in the Gar- Had Champ Framed Well, it was rigged up that night to frame the champion. The angle was to have Joe Jeanneau cleverly lie down in the ring in place of the third-rater. Then just Dempsey climbed into the ring, a fight was to start and Kearns was to be knocked out and lugged out of the building. This would leave Dempsey facing Jerry O'Neill obliged to join them talking and do so to beighter likes to do that. Probably he would have consented to meet Jeanneau and might have been shown up in four rounds. Anyway, Paddy Mullins forced the plan and that meant he would and Denny would to the ring. Padron and a guard of able citizens surrounded them. Result was that the plot fazed and Kearns was able to meet the tricky situation and withdraw his man. So Dempsey and Kearns have not followed and still grateful. But after all, a title is a title.

One old story told again, of the setting of poor example. The Scholastics and Athenian teams, who should set the example, are likewise jumping to other teams. This, of course, is a blow to good sportsmanship and a disgrace to Baltimore.

LS - vs - SCHC IMOND A DOWN AVE LUB When Joe Ga "Spider (Whip News Service) "Spider" Kelly, of San Francisco, lost a decision after 25 rounds of fighting with Joe Gans at the Lenox Athletic Club, New York City, on October 3, 1899. While the judgment was against Kelly, he had supervised the fight, knowing that he had won the admiration of every onlooker by the game and determined manner in which he fought against superior odds. During the early stages of the fight, Kelly hold his grip and up to the knee he looked as though he might turn a probable defeat into victory. On facing each other for action it was seen that Kelly was the taller of the two. They siddled for a minute and then the "Spider" Kelly, who had ludged, but didn't do much harm. Then he pumped in a hard left to the body and at the same time uncorked a right that Gans ducked. Again Kelly hooked a hard one to the body and they clinched. Gans was careful and up to this time had not tried a lead. Kelly rushed with a right smash to the Rose and left the heart as they came together. Gans Comes to Life He was encouraged by his own good work and Gans' inaction and indiscreetly left himself wide open. As he did so Gans dashed in with a right jolt to the stomach of the californian Joe. Joad had come to life. He placed another solid one to the heart and crossed with a right, while Kelly countered with both hands at close range. The white man showed a straight right to the face that pushed Joe's head back and pushed in with a straight body push that was about all Gans could take. In the fourth and fifth rounds Kelly held his own. He reached the jaw with straight lefts and worked right to the body at close range, a punch that would end matters, but Kelly withstood his efforts and seemed to be wiling to mix things. Gans took a decided lead in the sixth. He had the "Spider" bleeding at the nose and battered about with a punch he was giving groan and backing all over the ring to save himself. NEXT CAP FROM NIE BERG (Old Boy Himself) g. U. S. Pat. Off.) CHOLASTICS Baltimore ARMORY Gans Beat er" Kelly In 22 The colored man maintained his advantage in the seventh and eighth rounds, but in his efforts to floor his opponent he ran into many swings that did him good. He ran in a way until the 14th, when he increased his advantage and fought his best round of the fight. It looked as though he would turn the tide that had been running against him—or at least doing so. It also led doom into corner and was encouraged by the shouts of the crowd to keep him there. He took the tip and for fully a minute shot in heavy drives to the body and jaw. Gans was tired and practically unable to defend himself, and fort and succeeded in fighting himself free, eventually to be totally saved by the sound of the gong. "Solder's" Chance is Gone Gans came up for the 15th round as good as new and resumed the attack. He punished Kelly severely with hard body punches, and only kept the "Spider's" thorough gameness kept the Californian in the seat. The Californian made another rally in the 18th round. Gans was forcing him around the ring, landing at will with both hands, when Kelly made a desperate stand. He got home with a right and left to the left. The California was this. This was Kelly's last stand. After that he seemed to be content to stay the limit, and apparently only fought back to avoid a knockout. Gans punished him unmercifully in the rounds, but try as he might he could not poll off the Californian. He had Kelly wabbling in the 20th round and turned on full steam in an effort to find the right spot, but the "Spider" guarded himself himself and it was hard to find it a hard matter to do anything. Gans kept him tottering in the 21st and 22nd rounds and with a vicious right brought the Californian to his knees, but the bell interrupted, and was not questioned of who would win, but a question of whether Kelly could stay the limit. This, by remarkable exhibition of pluck, the Californian succeeded in doing. Naturally, he had no chances of winning the decision, which went to Gans.

MASON Injuries And Sickness Kept Cuban Stars Out Of Pennant Race In League, Says Taylor If An Outfielder Can Be Found Nearly As Good As Bare To Take The Place Of The Injured Player, The Island Lads Should Be In The Thick Of The Fight Without The Addition Of A Single Man ARTICLE VIII The Cuban Stars were a big disappointment to the fans as well as to its manager last year. The Cubans have been coming to this country to play our clubs since 1008 and have always had strong clubs and held their own with the best. At first there were just enough good Cuban players to make one club of not over 12 men. That club would play through the West and then come East the latter part of the season, where they would catch a boat for home the middle of September. The old Cubans were great ball-players as any one will tell you that saw Mendez, Pedrosa and Padrone, the three best pitchers ever to come from the Island. Pigorola, catchers, Hernandez, Bustemante and Moran, infielders. The outfield, composed of Torrente, Magnet and Padrone, was also great, with Parpetti, one of the best hitters to ever leave Cuban. Classed as White Baseball has grown in Cuba until today there are several complete clubs, months long, besides several Cubans that are classed as white in this country, come over to play with the white league clubs. Mr. Alexei Mempes, owner and manager of the Cubans, went to Cuba the winter of 1924 and signed the best ballplayers on the Island with the intention of winning the pennant, since he was barely missed by the Hildates the season before. Won First From Potomacs His first league games were here in Washington with the Potomac, and after winning two of 8 to 3, with Levis, the spitball star pitching, and looking better than ever. Pompez confided to me that his club was the best team, that he had the best club to ever represent the little Republic, and that he was sure to win the pennant. The only thing he did not know was how far out from the ball he had to admit his club looked like world beater, with Baro, Mesa and Oms he had all that could be desired for the outfield. The infield was the best, Portaunda at third, Chacon at shortstop, Dihigo at second and a catcher, Fernandez, at first, and Cardinales, a youngster, behind the bat, at the season Jimenez, the king of Cuban second basemen, reported. Ensets the Done I will admit that his club did look like ready money, but my club upset the dope by winning the two remaining games, thereby throwing a win to the club, the circuit, for it was known that if any club could beat the Cubans two out of three, they must be hot. With an all-star club the Cubans were destined to have their worst season, but during the season, Chacon, their captain and star shortstop, was out with sickness, then with a broken digit, meaning finger. Their first string catcher was also laid up in the back, and their automobile accident and several were out of the game for almost a week, and to crown it all Baro, their star center fielder, suffered a compound fracture of the leg and from latest sports is through with baseball forever. Best Catchers in League Manager Pompez also says that by his club always being in the role of the jistist, he will him the forest of the deal. Anyway I think with the club I saw in Washington and with the addition of Jimenez at second, the Cucu finished much higher in the race. In Fernandez and Cardenas they had two of the best catchers in the league. Fernandez, a veteran, was good, good, good receiver and hitter, with an excellent throwing arm. Cardenas, a youngster, making his first year in the big league, looks like a real find and, no doubt, will be a star in a few seasons. Dhigo Played All Positions At the beginning of the season. Dhilgo, a tall, lanky youth, was not only first baseman, but could and did play almost all the other positions, including pitching, also a juggler, this being his second year in the big leagues. He was very fast and fair at bat. The veteran Chacon was at bat. The team Chacon was at country with the Western Cubans, or I might say, with the only Cuban team that was coming to this country at that time, 1909. I don't know from the American and National leagues have looked him over after hearing what a wonderful shortstop he was, and after seeing him work they would have to ask him to their club needed, but, "alias" that old color prejudice loomed up, the unwritten law that a black man must not enter the white big leagues, and went on their way. Best Shortfielder in Baseball Chacon is one of the best shortfielders in baseball. He is very fast, covering lots of territory and possessing the best throwing arms in the business. He is a good hitter and base runner with plenty of baseball brains. He is the captain of the club for several years. Second base was well taken care of by Jimenez, nicknamed "Hooks" who would make good on any club. He is also very fast and covers a world of ground and is a great hitter and base runner. He is a veteran and has the Western Cubans in 1911. Infield Compares With the Best Portoundo at third, rounds out one He is also a veteran and was with of the best infelds in the league. The Western Cubans. Bute is also a veteran and was with City, the Kansas City Monarchs, and finally with the Eastern Cubans. Portoundo is very fast, and is over the average at bat. He is also a very good defender. I would clash she Cubans up near the Hills, with Hildaels and Baltimore. They started the season with one of the best hitting, throwing, fielding and base running outfields in the East. Pompey claimed it was the best outfield in baseball. I say it was the best. Oms, Baro and Mesa, all three owners: Oms, very fast and over lots of ground. **Omes Sets Record** Omes set a record a few years ago by going 40 home runs. Mesa is not far behind as a home run hitter, but unfortunately, this hitter is broken up by the injury to Baro; the latest information being released is that Baro broken leg, it was found that one leg will be short, causing a limp. Good Pitching Staff The pitching staff was Oscar Levis, Fabre, Miraval and Juanella. A real good corps of hurriers. Lewis was a host of the bunch with one of the best spitballs I have ever seen. He is known to the fans as Oscar. The other three are youngsters and will improve with a little more seasoning. The Cubans will need an outfielder to take the place of the injured Baro this season and if one is found that is almost as good they will talk to the thick of the fight without the addition of any other men. This finishes the review of last season's clubs and if one is sure that this year's clubs, and I am sure the ones will see new faces on most of the clubs in the East. Some of them will be benefited academically, but everything will be done with the one idea of adding strength to the respective clubs.

This was their second meeting, the high school had previously won a 2015 contest from the college boys at Harper Ferry, W. Va., on January 24. The players had it easy in the opening skimming and at half time was on the long end of a 18 to 2 decision. At the beginning of the second half Storrer staged a rally that took the local boys by surprise and brought the score up to 21-20 with about five minutes to play. The team substituted for Shores with a field goal followed by Woods with a double decker and three free throws brought the score to 23-20 for the high school. Another free throw by Gaye gave the locals a one-point lead, but just before the whole blow ending the contest Willie Gaye scored a basket from the center of the floor. Jerome Woods led the scorers for longhass with three goals and four goals, totaling 10 joints. Whittington won second honors with three goals and one free throw. Jeter added the high point getter, bagging three field goals and making two out of five tries from the foul line. Storer had a defense that battled the school quint and kept the locals in their own territory most of the time. The West Virginiaians clearly inhibited the doughshass team, but ultimately to the benefit of the team, important times proved detrimental and many easy shots within scoring distance went wild. sshorts shred cnwfpw shdru mhm STORER DOUGLAS Williams.rf 2 0 1 Short.rf 2 0 1 Williams.lf 2 0 1 Witness.ft 2 0 1 Jones.lg 0 0 8 Woods.lg 3 4 1 Jones.fg 0 0 2 Jackson.fg 0 0 1 Boyer.fg 0 0 1 Veney.fg 0 1 1 Totals 11 2 8 Totals 11 7 4 Borcee J.

STA BERRIES AN BACK ON SA FOOTBALL PRACTICE BEGINS AT HOWARD Forty Candidates Respond To Call Of Coach Watson For Spring Practice With The Passing Of Star Center, Several Are Being Washington, D. C. — Coach Washington, Watson issued the first call for spring football practice to begin Saturday. The first meeting was attended by 40 candidates for the 1925 eleven. At this time the coach outlined the policy for spring football training and indicated something of the system to be put into effect in the fall. The players took kindly to this policy, being clearly signed up for trial in positions of their choice. Most of the candidates indicated a desire to play in the backfield. Actual practice started Monday afternoon and has continued every day, being closely signed up for trial in the fundamentals of the game and some signal work. New Recruits Daily New applicants are turning up daily, which gives the coaches confidence. Charlie West is giving the backfield aspirants the benefit of his technique and skill. Watson is stressing the fundamentals of line play. With the passing of Priestley, star center of the past two seasons, the coaches are eager to develop several men for this position. Identifying, note the progress made, Kelly, Martin and Hawes, all of whom have played line positions in former seasons. These men simply need the technique of handling the ball to make them good, aggressive centers. Spring football practice will be continued for three weeks, during which time the coaches expect to have several drills so that they will have a chance to show their worth under actual playing conditions. The men who will ploy themselves in spring training will have quite an advantage over other candidates when the fall season rolls around, because most of the detailed individual instruction is being given now, with the hope that the men will be able to play well "carry on" with advanced football. The 1925 season's preliminary training will start September 14th. This gives just two weeks in which to condition the men for the playing of the first game of the season to be played against: Morgan College on October 3rd.

On Sunday the Sox will make their first appearance in Baltimore in a jersey game against the Cuban Stars. PETER M. Alex Pompez, of the Cubans, is in the Island on a scouting expedition and sends word that he will have a club this year that will make the fans sit up and take notice. Due to a number of injuries the Island lad suffered severely last year. Alto Wade Johnston threatened to hold put, Charlie Spedden, in a statement this week, said he thought the box outfielder would come before the season started. The ball is about the head-off man in the East, and is a great master in the art of bunting. G. I. Mackey Deckwill will be in Baltimore the second week in March to get things in shape for the opening. The Sox's newest manager is bubbling over with confidence and says Baltimore will be the scene of a world series this year. The old Maryland ball park will be revamped and the diamond put in first class shape, said Spedden, an glory he will build a regular press stand away from. In adding an inventory recently, we found we had lost the nips (one a corn cob) two straw hats put out of commission and 17 boxes of matches, trying to keep an accurate account of the games played, in a bleacher seat. TWO PLAYERS FROM WESTERN LEAGUE Besides last year's regulars, the Sox boss is angling for two players in the Western League, one a pitcher and the other will do duty in the outfield. The Baltimore management is centering its efforts in the outfield this year. "Bobo" Leonard, who came from Giants last year, is an excellent fielder, but he made him show in stick work also previously he held the pitching average in the circuit. J. Rojo, in Cuba, came with his team no end of trouble swatting balls over the great joy of the fans. He has already lost 23 outfits his way of the home run route. "Babe Ruth" Wilson has been spending the winter in Washington, and a visitor to the city last tweek. The "Babe" is rarin' to go and looks to be in the pink of condition. Spedding these balls to the kid pitcher, is matured enough this season to in action in some of the big games. A trifle weak at bat. Simmons is one of the coolest twilvers on the Eastern roster. He has struck out more men in league games than any other Sox pitcher. He has never loses his head or gets wild in the pinches. Bob McClure made history in Florida the other week by pitching eight innings without allowing a single lift and winning a two-hit game. If the Pinecina fans had their way, Bob would be our next president. and flick up. According to all indications the Sex will have a mighty good team this week. WILLS TOSSES HIS HAT INTO RING After patiently waiting for five long years and hanging up a record, if records are kept in the waiting game, Harry Wills, the "Brown Panther," tossed his hat in the heavyweight ring last week accompanied by a check. Willis is a very patient sort of person. Month after month and year he has been standing just outside of the heavyweight title dome for a chance to get on the inside. He has a direct challenge in "Dodging" Jack Dempsey and to meet the requirements of the sum of $2500. Boston Boxing Club Patient Fuddly Mullins, manager of Wills, said that in the event Dempsey fails to accept within six months Wills would claim the heavy- weight. It may be that Wills will be asked to fight Tommy Gibbons, the winner to meet Dempsey, if Dempsey is still available. But who would blame Wills for passing up that sort of proposition? He has be, that even if he does, he will not be another long fight. Wills-Dempsey bout is suggested? stretch of silence that That old gag about "the winner to meet Dempsey" will never catch Hermann. He ought to be cured by now. LEAGUES LINING UP FOR STATE CHAMPIONSHIP Several leagues are being formed and over 10 teams have sent their application in to join the AFRO bowling tournament, which will get under way on the Center bowling alleys beginning Monday. April 6. The F. M. C. A., under Bill Mason, is forming the "TV league," and the Fort Office is 15th floor. Any independent team can join any league they wish, providing six teams are not already in that particular league. Several independent leagues will be formed to take care of teams not wishing to join any league representing an organization. The silver cup will be put on display in the lobby of the Bowling Center next week. The winning team will be declared State champions. Get the application blanks from the Center or the office of the AFRO and have same filled before the night of April 1. THE TIGER ON SECOND RAMPAGE Tiger Flowers, sensational middleweight from Atlanta, who outpointed Harry Greb, middleweight champion, at Fremont, Ohio, some time ago, has knocked out four opponents since being floored himself far from being through and is fast ascending the championship ladder. On the other hand Delaney has been outpointed for the second time by Jimmy Slattery, and lost a decision to Allentown Joe Gans in their last meeting, according to the ring fans and a number of newspaper men present. No, there must be something in Walk Miller's contention that Delaney had something in his glove when he hit Flowers besides his fists. This was Flowers' first knockout since he started his sensational rise to fistie fame. And it must be remembered that Flowers has since won from every fighter that knocked him out. There were only four Delaney, Panama Joe Gan, Kid Nolli and another Larry Ford had this honor when Flowers was just a bud, but the Georgia Tornado more than got sweet revenge since he has grown into a toll bloom. No, he prove his contention Miller has signed Flowers to meet Delaney in a return hiatus in Madison Square Garden in a 15-round affair on Thursday night, February 26. This match takes the place of the Flowers-Renlionbach hatch, which was scheduled for that date. Whether Miller was right in saying Delaney had a horse shoe in his glove on the night of their last meeting will be proved Thursday night. DIXIE KID KAYOES SIDNEY WELLS Dixie Kid, who is in the same stable with George Chaney, the knock-sided Widow, another fighter in the Harris stalls. The stunt came off as a windup of a midnight show staged by a number of actors from the Maryland and other theatres about town. The Kid and Wells dressed in the make-up of waders, bobbing to each other with a tray load of dishes. Women screamed and strong men trembled as the Kid and Wells started to mix things in the middle of the dining room, but the timely interference of the managers suggested that they settled their dispute according to the Mansfield of Oregonshire rules not everybody in good spirits again. After several lively rounds the Kid sent Wells to the door for the full count, then throw him across his shoulders and marched to the dressing room amid the plaudits of the diner. The whole affair was broadened by the Kid's kindness and several flattering offers to go back to the ladie, which his modestly refused. MACKEY AND LEWIS TO DO BRUNT OF CATCHING "Bizz" Mackey and "Sleepy" Joe Lewis will hear the brunt on the receiving end of the Hildale club this season. Lewis is one of the original Baltimore Black Sox that started here some years ago. He worked for five years in the Monumental City and went to Ben Taylor in 1923 and played on the Washington Potomac. The same season he finished with the Homestead Grays, of Pittsburgh, and went to the Hildale club in the spring of 1924. He in Sparrows Point, Md., and is only 25. He is a good hitter and gave an excellent account of himself in the world series with Kansas City. In shifting Mackey from the infield to the receiver's end will be nothing new to this versatile player, as he is a competent fielder in any position and one of the most dangerous hitters in the league. Weighing nearly 200 pounds, this "big boy" from the Lone Star State is just as agile as a two year old, and very few players can take the dif- Call VErnon 6017 TORER COL By OH WELL, THAT'S DIFFERENT!

C. of the Abyssinian Baptist Church, led by their captain, Adam Powell, nosed out the Y. M. D. "Five," of the Y. M. C. A., in the most brilliantly played game of the season, by a score of 25-22. This is the second defeat the Y. M. C. that was suffered on its home court in five seasons. At half time the game was deadlocked 12-12. Although weakened somewhat by the loss of three of last year's regulars who have passed the age limit, the Y. M. C. A. team was able to win the game time. The sunny floor was of bleaks and Steele was too much for the Association men. Last year the Y. M. D. dropped only one game and that to a team of the heavyweight division. They were last season's lightweight champions, and had claim to the lightweight championship. Negotiations are under way for a return match. ACME A.

Dr. George F. Bragg, sets out our monthly budget bought for the 200 boys in the institution. According to this list each boy gets one and one-half pounds of beef each month. This is the amount of attention the pound steak and the 20 boys once each day.

The AFRO hopes it will not have to report a single shooting accident in this district in 1925, and in order to carry out this wish, for your own sake as well as that of your parents' and friends', pay strict attention to the following: Never have a loaded gun in the house, automobile or vehicle. Make sure at what you are shooting. A man's life is a sacred thing and if you take it you will never forgive yourself for it. Never walk along with your gun cocked—not even when you are alone. you Unload your gun when you come out of the bush and see that your companions do the same.

Articles have appeared recently in "Current History," "Opportunity" and several psychological periodicals on some phases of race assimilation and allied questions. Many deductions have been made from psychological tests in an attempt to prove the mental inform- tion of white men. Articles and discussions on this question are not limited to the consideration of the mixing of whites and Negroes. The mixing of the Nordic stock with the race Southern Europe and the Asiatics is considered in many of the recent articles of racial analgiza. Immigration Bill The writer followed up the various discussions on the immigration bill passed during the last session of Congress, and the bill used the racial insistence of the economic argument for the passage of the bill. At first sight this change may not seem significant, but a more careful examination of the bill reveals that this change rests upon an uncientistic racial psychology which race haters and certain pseudoscientists have been calling up for the passage of or more. Few Spoke of Labor Few Congressmen spoke of the danger of receiving a larger supply of labor here than they did not pass, but instead most of them prescheduled the horrors and dangers of the mongrelization of America. The bill read extracts from the works of Stoddard Grant and conclusions drawn from the army intelligence tests—data from every source calculated to show the extent of the Chinese, the Slav—in short, the non-white man, inferior to the Nordic. The Congressional Record for last April reported that the bill was in the hands of Representatives by the House, of New York. This is "Do You Want To "Can't say that I do," chance reply.

Difference of Opinion There is no unanimity of opinion among Americans on the question of the effects of race amalgamation. Difference of opinion exists, even when it is book with disfavor and alarm upon it, white others have no fear that it will prove harmful to the welfare and interests of American one or more of the states. Do the effects of race amalgamation as a desirable solution of the race problem. Questionnaire In order to get the opinion of American's leading author on the question of the meeting of La Créative Club, of Richmond, Virginia, held on the 23rd of February, at which time this subject was discussed, the writer sent out the following letter to think that by living in the same territory in the United States, the Negro and white race will eventually amalgamate? The writer's amalgamation would lead to the deterioration of American manhood and the destruction of American civilization? Why? Are you oppose race amalgamation? Why? 4. Do you think that the Negro is inherently inferior to the Caucasian? 5. In the light of your answers to the four preceding questions, what would you offer to ameliorate the race problem? 6.

Baltimoreans Express Opinions On "50-50" Home Work Plan Should a husband, do half of the house work? In an address before the Cooper's women's College, Francis Williams, student secretary of the Y.

New men and women here in Baltimore have to say about this matter: "It All Depends "It depends on what each of them have to do with the home.

Equal salaries for equal work for school teachers without regard to color. Senator Weller In Background The senior senator from Maryland, Senator Ovington E. Weller (Republican), seems to seek the background. Senator William Cabell Bruce (Democrat), to the contrary, seeks the lime light. It is Senator Bruce who took the floor to argue State's rights and opposition to the federal education bills and the child labor amendment. Senator Bruce voted "no" on the measure to build a $75,000 bathing beach for colored Washington. Where Senator Weller stands on these measures is not evident. When the vote was taken on the bathing beach bill, the senior senator was absent. After March fourth, comes the question of federal appointments in the new administration. Then will come the time to reward the faithful who helped carry the State for Coolidge. Will the Senator desert the background for a front seat then? Is the G. O. P. plum tree in Maryland to remain as bare in 1925 as it has been under Harding? These are the questions Maryland politicians are asking, and no one can answer them except Senator Weller. Time Is Not Money his money to most business men, but to the rules of business. Example, it took the senate less than 100 full increase salaries of all congresses, 10,000 a year. The bill adds to the $7 million a year. The bill adds to the $1 million a year. Same the measure to appropriate $75 million beach on the Potomac River near the debate in the Senate extended. Sus of the country stood still while senators debated whether the colored beaten white beach, and so forth ad nausea denied the colored beach upon which been spent, and the white bathing nation has been spent was refused further. So wonder Mr. Coolidge is opposed to congress. The sooner this silly blunder takes men goes home, the better for the country. It is recalled that Judge Rose was forst Attorney in Maryland; and has be past 15 years, anything he says to the bank bank must be taken with the charge to a jury in Raleigh, N.

That is what is important customer more than ten per individual profits.

Rose's discussion of bank failures is so mental. Banks and insurance company his words over their desks where every minute of the working day—the commendments. Time is money to most business men, but congress is an exception to the rules of business. For example, it took the senate less than 10 minutes to pass the bill increasing salaries of all congressmen from $7,500 to $10,000 a year. The bill adds to the tax payers' burden over a million a year. Then came the measure to appropriate $75,000 for a colored bathing beach on the Potomac River near Lincoln Memorial and the debate in the Senate extended over two sessions. Business of the country stood still while senators in long-winded speeches debated whether the colored beach was to be close to the white beach, and so forth ad nauseum. Finally funds were denied the colored beach upon which already $25,000 has been spent, and the white bathing beach upon which a million has been spent was refused further operating expenses. It is no wonder Mr. Coolidge is opposed to an extra session of Congress. The sooner this silly blundering body of unbusinesslike men goes home, the better for the White House and the country. Two Banking Commandments Judge John C. Rose, of the U.S. Court of Appeals, is not only a wizard with figures, but an author, whose book on "Jurisdiction and Procedure in the Federal Courts" is consulted and cited by lawyers of long experience in federal courts. When it is recalled that Judge Rose was for 12 years a U.S. District Attorney in Maryland, and has been on the bench for the past 15 years, anything he says on the question of banks and bank failures must be taken with the weight of authority. In a charge to a jury in Raleigh, N. C., last week, Judge Rose declared that banks fail oftenest because they invest too largely in real estate or lend too large amounts to a single customer. He added: "Experience has shown that a bank is exposed to two things. One that it must be in real estate, the second that it must be in funds liquid. With its money invested in lands when it needs money most it will be impossible for it to get it without suffering the most damage. It must be in real estate. They may, it is true, take real estate on account of a bad debt when they can get nothing else, but even then they are required to pay it. In five years, the Controller of the Currency and the bank examiners are in the interest of the banks themselves, always insisting on their disposing of their real estate holdings and danger to banks is their looming too large a proportion of their funds to a single concern. That is so well recognized in will that it is expressly required that banks from investment firms offer more than ten per cent of its capital, surplus and undivided profits. The danger of so doing is, of course, all the greater when the borrower himself is one of the officers or directors of Brown and Stevens Bank failed in Philadelphia recently because of "frozen assets"—too much capital invested in real estate. The Cosmopolitan State Bank of Philadelphia was closed when e-aminers found they had loaned one-third of their capital. $35,000, to one man, the president. John Mitchell's bank of Richmond, the State Bank at Petersburg, invested too heavily in real estate. The same was true of the Standard Life Insurance Company, of Atlanta, Ga. Judge Rose's discussion of bank failures is so sound that it is fundamental. Banks and insurance company heads ought to frame his words over their desks where they will see them every minute of the working day—the first two banking commadments.

Two de There are three main factors to be considered in college government: (1) the president, trustees, faculty, comprising what is known as the college administration; (2) the students; (3) the alumni. No one of these three factors can with safety usurp the rights of the other two. Where the administration rules with an iron hand as at Fisk University, student strikes, aided by sympathetic alumni, are bound to follow. Wherever there have been student disturbances they may be traced to efforts of students and alumni to win a larger measure of participation in college control. Howard University students on three occasions recently rebelled against rules making chapel attendance compulsory, against singing folk songs, against rules for bidding smoking, against faculty interference in outside class activities. These are privileges according intelligent, well-balanced students in most sane American colleges. Two decades ago, it was possible for many colleges of the race to insist upon strict military discipline. Then education came largely thru philanthropy, the teachers in many instances giving their services free. Today the college student pays his way. He has grown to the stature where he knows the blessings of self-government and academic freedom and demands them. If rebuffed, he resorts to the strike method. The very appearance of a student strike in an American college may be taken as an evidence of growth in intelligence and independence. It accounts for the reason why Howard students sent a resolution of sympathy to their brethren at EDITORIAL PAGE RAGE BUSINESS BROWN AND STEVENS STANDARD LIFE INSURANCE Black Pilots Steered Bishop Brooks' Ship At Senegal By Lorenz B. Graham. With Bishop nuts go to Europe annually where W. Sampamon Brooks In W. Africa they are made into oleo-margerine this season there are hills of ground nuts thirty and forty feet high, waiting to be sacked and loaded on ships for export. Europeans pocket the proceeds, but the natives do see the value of labor and of trade and they are going into it more and more. And that is progress. A few miles into the interior, an long way in West Africa, the S. S. Estate was piloted by a black man. A pilot anywhere in the world is no mean person and on these treasured river lands he travels three times a month, a pilot is a man of great importance and great responsibility.

For most part they wear almost no clothes, a loin cloth for the men, a bright colored cloth hanging from their waist. The native are natives in the stores and in the offices who dress after the manner of the European but the native of the country are. And yet on many there is evidence of better things. It is said that each year brings more clerks and more workers to the ground nuts are shipped by native planters each year, there are a few more who forsake the countrymen's join cloth or their clothing.

The extreme West of Africa is the French Senegal, and on the extreme Western tip is Dakar, an important port. The first appearance of the naval ship is to take the ship into the harbor. The pilot himself is a Frenchman but the sailors in his launches are natives, and moving into the harbor it is found that all the launches and barges and ships are manned by natives. That In the town of Dakar, there are excellent schools and play grounds for the native children. Fort garrisoned by native soldiers. There are clerks and bookkeepers who render modern service to the customer. We deal with them in French. Fukuoka pay them. There are said to be some very intelligent natives in the Senegal, certainly there are some. Certainly, others, not to mention Battling Siki, there are two representatives in the French house of deputies and there are native officers of the police, fighting the Rhur. There is progress in Senegal. Of course there is ignorance too, a great deal of it, but the people, a small part of them, have seen A few hours by steamer to the South of Dakar is the Gambia, a small colony villa on the coast.

However, an explanation is due and is being patiently awaited. For those who can't wait for the reason, for knowledge of the situation I offer an explanation proffered by some God-fearing and superstitious old slaters. They are putting it out that the penitentiary and the guard was killed was because God was dissatisfied with the white people in this State, because of the way in which Carroll was mistreated.

Miss Mamie Moon of the Runnin' Wild Company, told an AFRO reporter the secret of preserving beauty through the paper so that everybody could get a whack at it. Miss Moon has a time to go to her studio, a certain amount of exercise and among other things, breakfasts on toast and coffee at 10.30, eating dinners in spite of the way with an apple before retiring. By carrying out this program Miss Moon has been able to retain her beauty in spite of the fact she once had a broken arm.

There is neither race nor nationality in knowledge. Nor is there any real necessity, from a purely scientific point of view, for the Negro or any other group to be pathfinders in the field of science. Universal principles cannot be monopolized nor manipulated to suit racial or National arrogance or pride. But it is a matter of commendable pride for any community to lay claim to its due proportion of celebrities whose contribution have advanced the general culture of the species. When one member of a despised group rises to distinction or renown, it quickly inspires his fellowmen who labor under like limitations as himself, to bestir themselves for higher and better things. Educational Capacity Of Negroes The Negro college was founded and fostered by philanthropy whose chief concern was to develop an educated class for race reclamation and uphold. The man of one talent and the man of five talents, alike, were impressed into the service of humanity, cultural aptitudes and endowments were devoted to the common ideal. Gleams or glints of genius or high talent were socalled achievement and as justification for provision for his improvement. It is generally conceded that the NEGU student has emotional capacity and gift of memory. He may be expected to excel in music, poetry and helles lettres, which rest upon memory emotion, and imagination, and which are efficient in the domain of the solid understanding. He has not been expected to excel in logical faculty and the power of abstract reasoning. This prejudice is found in the United States Patent Office which contains several thousand discoveries and inventions as evidence of Negu's talent. It has been only recently that the Negu student's attention has been directed to the pursuit of science and abstract thought as a matter of serious Our best colleges are now establishing chairs in astronomy, physics, chemistry, biology and the social sciences, to fill these chairs according to the rigid requirements of the collegiate world. Quite a number are now filling these chairs with the efficient number of colored students, are now pursuing graduate courses in the several branches of science with the doctorate, win the state of academic approval. In a few instances they have more than met the minimum requirements of these scientific chairs, but have not yet received research calculated to extend the boundaries of knowledge. Fields Of Research Research is a new world, recently added to the vocabulary of college teaching. Roughly speaking, the function of the small college is to teach rather than to investigate, while the function of the university is to investigate rather than to teach. There is at present no Negro university in the sense of the investigative function. "Notwithstanding this limitation, several Negro teachers have shown the ambition to launch upon the higher wave of investigation. Genius cannot be restrained by institutional limitations. Many of the illustrious names in the annals of science not only come from the small college, but have fallen wholly without the limits of college walls. Among the colored men who have gained distinction in scientific pursuits might be mentioned the late Dr. Charles H. Turner, of the Summer High School, of St. Louis, whose researches on the instincts of the ant and the bee gave him a national and indeed an international reputation among biole�ists. Prof. George W. Carver, of Tuskegee Institute, has recorded to his credit a number of discoveries and results in biology and chemistry resulting in biologically valuable economic products. His ingenuity and intellectual resource are widely recognized and extolled. Others are doing worthwhile work of credit and promise. Dr. Ernest E. Just Dr. E. E. Just, professor of biology, Howard University, easily takes first rank among colored men engaged in scientific pursuits. Mr. Just is not yet 40 years old. Carolina and received his early education in the Charleston public schools and in the State college at Orangeburg. From there he went to Kimberly in Humphreys and prepared for Dartmouth College, from which institution he was graduated in the class of 1907 with Magna cum laude, being the only graduate of the University to attain that grade of distinction. He has spent his vacations there in arduous research for 17 years without interruption. He soon be interested in research in the biological journals. For the past 10 years he has ranked among the first as a frequent candidate for research in the field, widely quoted in learned treaties on the subject. In 1915, Mr. Just secured leave of absence from institution to travel in order to spend a year in residence at the University of Chicago, from which institution he received the degree. He earned his doctorate with the same distinction as his baccalaureate — Magna Cum Laude. Association for the Advancement of Colored People awarded Dr. Just the Spingar Medal in 1914 as having made the greatest contribution of any memorial to his race. He was the last five years Dr. Just has been carried as a research worker by the National Research Council, which has been involved in two teaching at Howard University and research at Woolse Hole. World Wide Recognition Dr. Just is co-author with Dr. Lillie, head of the Department of Chemistry, to go, of the section on Fertilization, in the tertise on Citology edited by the author, cowryd, of the Rockefeller Institute. Regently he has been requested by a group of German scientists to prepare monograph on the Physiology of the Fertilization. Dr. Ernest E.

This series contains no more than a few biological knowledge. His selection for this purpose from among all of the biologists of the world shows that he has won an international reputation in the special field upon which he The field of Dr. Just's research is limited to the question of fertilization upon which great emphasis is laid by all scientists in quest of ultimate vital knowledge. It is generally conceived that Dr. Just has pushed the line of inquiry as far, and in some respects farther than any other investigator in America or Europe. To stand with those at the top in any department of knowledge is a great distinction, indeed. Dr. Just possesses the elemental qualities of intellectual superiority. He is natural, simple and unostentatious. His distinction has in no degree affected his pulse or swollen his self conceit. He has a becoming measure of Newtonian modesty. He vaunteth not himself on account of his accomplishments and is not puffed up. This modesty is all the more remarkable because any member of a backward group who gets far ahead of his fellows is prone to glory in the uniqueness of his distinction. A one-eyed man among the blind is usually regarded as a marvel for his feats of sight. But Dr. Just wears his distinction with hardly normal self-annexation. Deep Race Consciousness .. Those of us who know Dr. Just intimately are convinced that he is not mere a teacher but is the diameter of the augur hole of his investigation, but feel that he possesses a universal mind that would reach distinction in any field. He possesses a creative imagination so essential to success in any field of inquiry. To his colleagues at the University, he imply his insight ordinary affairs seems at times almost uncanny. Dr. Just has a deep sense of racial awareness in the possibilities of the Negro with an unlimited and unshakeable belief. Although his special field of research was far removed, one can think, from the domain of racial welfare, yet he never allows himself to be deceived or carried too far from his situation to which he is keenly aware. Science Color Blind Science is color blind. There is neither race nor nationality in knowledge. Nor is there any real necessity, from a purely scientific point of view, to be pathfinders in the field of science. The truth is the end will prove to be the same, both in its pure essence and in its application. It matters not who first may hit upon it. Universal principles have universal application. They cannot be racial or national arrogance and monopoly. What boots it that Euclid was a Greek, Newton an Englishman, Marcelon an Italian, or Gutenberg a German? Their genius has endured the blood of mankind without the place, time, race or nationality. But it is a matter of commendable pride for any community to lay claim to its due proportion of the resources advanced the general culture of the species. A group that falls to contribute its quota is apt to be stigmatized with the reproach of infidelity and lordly b y which they dependent group this proach of inferiority may serve to condition its place and status among the more powerful and lordly b y which they depend on. When one member of a desplaced group rises to distinction or renown, it quickly inspires his fellowmen himself, to heast themselves for higher and better things. The distinction that has come to Dr. Just will inspire hundreds of Negro college students to renew their ardor of science and exact knowledge. The value of a great name to any group consists in its ability to reproduce or to multiply itself. The mere presence of a student's sheet above the level of his class or group without disciples, ititators or rivals may stand as an exotic, a sport, or jest of nature. The inferior from the current of human wolfes. Dr. Just is not only an investigator of abstract scientific truth, but a teacher deeply concerned in the adaption of his knowledge when he would impart the fullest measure of his secrets and methods without stint or reserve. He is anxious that they should accomplish not only what they have achieved, but that they should do greater works than himself. The response is encouraging. He feels that his isolated example counts for little compared to those who are to come after him. Not only so, but he is keenly interested in encouraging timid and hesitant Negro students and teachers of science and precise knowledge. He is esteemed by the young. men who are devoting their talent and energies to scientific pursuits, their guide, philosopher friend. As Dean, I have watched with keen interest the career of Dr. Juist from the beginning to its present eminence. If we are to judge and honor the most recently set, up by President Elliot in the selection of the Ten Great Educators of mankind, it is reasonable and just to say that Dr. E. just deserves rank among the few who have competed in the Negro race has so far produced.

S—By Aunt Dilsey Woman is the final glory of God's creation-He is finished and finished, and it was it we color, embitility, variety, passion, devotion and intention. Woman is the High Priestess of love and she fills this office with a beautiful distinction. She neither rocks nor deserts nor span of sean can keep her from her birthright. In the first yearning to know love, peace and joy, its storm and entrenching contention, to secure her inheritance to have to live her days loveless and alone, to secure her inheritance to have to shrink with the instinctive aversion of a sensitive thing seeking escape from the nature of love on woman is truly miraculous; from a plain half-hearted person to a beautiful magnetic creature radiating health, charm, lovableness and a thousand sweet and characctic hearts; the current of life is studying of which the philosopher never tries for the Father of Mercies and the Father of humanity. Woman's world is the heart, an empathy of softness, address and compacency, where commands are caresses, where weapons are the artillery of tears. The world holds that can surpass her majesty when she throws with love her vassal and she a thrill to love. Deep in the heart of every woman a madonna; this may be lost and the woman become a female but she can regain her dignity down thru the institution of love. It has been said that a woman is at the beginning of all great things. Unable to support man is moved to strain his sinews 'til they crack; to excel if possible. His support man is moved to strain his sinews 'til they crack; to excel if possible. She is his greatest incentive to heroic chievements. Her fair, counsel, comforting is worthy of his most ardous endexor from the sun and thru the watches of night. Posts and sage call upon their faith, archness, find tributes to her beauty, archness, coyness, nashes faith and true example.

Heart Problems Answered by Annie Roney She Should Settle Down I am a girl in my teens. I have been a teenager for a month when I left my husband because he won't trust. Now I am in love with two other young men. They have both known which one to inarry, as I love them both dearly. Please advise me. BROWN-ETED FLAPPER It is time you stopped "flapping" and settle down to more serious things. Evidently, the probability was the cause of the unhappiness at your first marriage. If you really loved your young wife you would not be so easy to leave him after one month of marriage. The question you have asked me is how much matter over long and seriously. Think the matter over long and seriously before any steps. Welch the qualification of one whose tutelage and ideas must like your own. But you do not really love either man, for if you did you would know where your heart belongs. He Broke A Date I am in love with a boy two years older than I. One day he called me and said he would be down that night. I was not sure he never broken a date before. The next night he called me up, not even explaining why he did not. "Do you still love me?" It was true I loved him, but I was heart broken. The word, "love," was not wanted to hang up, so I told him to call some night. He never came. He only calls up my telephone. Do you think he still loves me? "He" the young man has been very wary, ship of a person who shows so little courtesy and regard for you. Try to with your other friends. THE PERFECT MAN To me, the perfect man is like a great rock in a weary land—one I can handle. One who I am confidant in without fear of disappointment. One who will never fall me, will never fail me. I will always have healing tenderness for the hurts of my heart, comforts for my sorrow and cheer in my discomforts. Such I am, my addict. What trusty treasure in the land Can counterall a perfect man. Mrs. C. B. S THREE FRIDAY8 THE 13TH This is going to be hard year on the superstars. There are three Friday games on Friday this year.

Subscript On sale at your newsdealer "By Sanction of Law" The tragedy of a Southern aristocratic family which opposes marriage of their daughter to a col- ord man only to find out that it has colored blood. Continued from Last Week "Humph! excalled Father Bunin, readjusting his glasses," he said, "and let you cool your heels." He turned to his reading again. Again the knocking, the clapping, the shouting. Bunin still paid no heed. A third time there was a loud knocking, this time accompanied by Bunin groove, and shuffled to the door. "Come in! Come in! Don't wait. Break the door in and enter." Here he opened the door only so stand staring into the muzzle revolver. "Mercy! Mercy! What a fearsome boy. You play with a very dangerous toy. Very dangerous. Come in but leave your weapon outside. Leave that outside where you left your good manners." It was Elvin Christian. He had recalled what came after being left and after foundering about in the darkness bewildered, recalled the battle and hurried to the house to find Lidda Gale. He assumed that the first minister to make sure of marriage, so he had ridden posthaste to Father Buntin, knowing him to be the nearest clergyman. He stepped in and the revolver still pointing at the body of the minister. "Where are they?" he demanded. "I know they came here. Where are they? who? Whom do you come? Put that down or I won't talk to you at all." "You'll talk or you'll never preach again. Kneel down and answer "Father Bunting fingered the crucifix that hung at the end of the church, but God. And I'll kneel to no one with murder in his heart." He looked fearlessly and calmly into the eye of the young man, who blazed with mad anger and just for blood. "What are they? I'm going to kill them." Father Buntin raised the crucifix till it was on level with the muzzle of the revolver, then looking past the man before him, he made a word, "Thou shalt not kill. Thou shalt not kill." Thou shalt not kill. he repeated slowly and deliberately, "Thou shalt not kill." Don't hit him, Job!" that warning Elvin turned his head for the flash of a second and in that instant Father Buntin sprang to the boy, grabbed the revolver, pointed it toward the man, pronounced Elvin's name, he treated so quickly, and Elvin was taken so unwaivers, that before he realized it he had been disarmed, "Now you kneel." Father Buntin commanded. Elvin refused. He took it, your own medicine. Kneel now. He held the revolver toward Elvin's body. Slowly the latter sank to his knees. "It is so that that God alwaysriumplethus always win in the end." "Now, my boy, let Father Buntin read you a lesson. You have had murder in your heart for weeks, persecuted by the law, and you live by violence you must die by violence. There is and has been altogether too much violence in this land we are too quietly violated. And now we are slaying begets another. The laws are immutable. We live by laws even when we break them. There is a law of good which creates an evil law is a law of which spawns evil. An evil act begets an evil act though it be years in showing. It is said in the Commandment that we are visited upon the children unto the third and fourth generation." Elvin thought of the court-house records and of that one of his head, "Good law—right law, right thought—rightly right, directed. Bad law is bad thought. Good law is good. Recompense which we often forget. We have those about us who are dependent upon us. This whole country will some day reap an evil harbor, the evil law by which it has erased. "There are laws of right and justice well thought out and laid down by Christ and his life, others by wise men who thought for humanity. By way of the law let us live. Let us live by way of the good law, let us live by way of the law, then shall we know true real happiness. There is only one law that is supreme by which we should live. To elvin whose head was now bowed, the evil in his heart soothed away with the calm, almost divine, talk of this man of God. Father of elvin, the head of the young man bowed before him, raised his face toward heaven and said: Another. Love is mankind's best creation and good will the most powerful friend. Hated is the most destructive enemy. Love is mankind's most beautiful and most enlightened form of self-interest and self-protection. It was that which made Christ die to save the world. Oh, my boy, my poor deluded, self-will Elvin continued to kneel some moments after the prayer was ended. his mind still unsettled and his heart troubled. In his trouble the image of Dinin in the darkened room "Poor Father," he mournured. "He needs me. I must go." Slowly he stood octet in the darkness. After looking once more into the window through which he could still see Father Dinin in melding, he turned to Elvin and mourned. hitching post impatient to be free. After mounting he gave the animal free rein, and was soon in the road and headed back for home. His mind was heavy with the events of the day, and words still mounding in his ears and BY JOSHUA HENRY JONES the crucifix dancing before his eyes, "Thou shalt not kill him," he repeated a reflection of third and fourth generations of them that hate me, and showing mercy unto those that keep my commandments,"—I never knew what that meant before. He would act for those who come after us—I wonder what more's in store for me?" It was almost daybreak when he again reached the Lauriston house horse that was familiar drive he would see lights flashing back and forth from various rooms. An unusual circumstance. With an effort he dismissed his mood and spurred his horse into a gallop. He met the footsteps of the horse and hurried out to the veranda. Discerning Elvin as he mounted, who had started up the steps, the man said feelingly with tears in his eyes: "He's done kill." "Suicide," thought Elvin, recalling the state of mind of his father, a feeling of horror from a question, however, as to details, the colored servant continued, apologetically. "I didn't mean to let him get out my sight. Suh. But when I cums back he gone. I didn't mean to left him go, known he'nat right, tapping his head to suggest bereft mind. Elvin. Elvin. Elvin. the mundain the collamity which overwhimmed him. The servant continued. "Next I hyeard a commotion out in the stables. The horses was a-trompin and with come to the stall of the big bay, who's making most of the fuss and under his feet is Mucur Laiturus and come to that horse. The domestic could say no more, his voice choked and tears began to flow freely. "My God! What a horrible end." Anxious words of the clergian came to his ears. "unto the third and fourth generations." Elvin lifted his head to the sky. "Oh, God. help me, was I to can bear." As he uttered these words he felt the color of the handed servant grasst his arm and pull him gently moved it from his arm only to grasp it firmly in his hand. "William," he said. "Your heart is simpler than mine but it's more complex." He going to treat you and your people like friends hereafter. passes all right. Suh. Thass all right. We all loves you. Suh. and well stick by you. We'll tek care of you—an Miss Lida." CHAPTER XXIVX Reaching Orangeburg about a half hour, we met and Lida, unmindful of the tragedy behind them, stabled their horses then enquired their way to the little railway. Once there, Bennet purchased ticket-sfor New York and asked when the next train for Columbia and the North would come. The one would depart in half hour, Bennet sought a small lunchroom to which he was directed by the ticket agent, secured a lunch He and Lida disposed of their hasty meal, the locomotive was heard at the lower end of the town. Bennet ushered her into the coach, disposed of their baggage, of him himself, the Lida watched at the station agent, a thin-mounted, spare man of middle age ordering the baggage and mail placed aboard, then heard the locomotive puff itself into the seat, the station agent leaned in the coach, her heart saddened by the memory of her father whose image she could not force from her mind. At Columbia they sent a wire to Elvin telling where he was, and the reeling that he call for them there, "We're married," the message read, "And on our way abroad, Elvin fingered the message a long time when it reached him in the afternoon. His thoughts turned from the room, the room, being prepared for burial, to his sister, "Life—death—pawns of fate," he soilquipped. "We are going to the court," he still says the law of the law. He still sat pondering, his hand hanging over the arm of the chair dangling the message when the buggy of Old William came. "I fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh just heard the news, Ellen. Can I fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh help?" He came in, John—Poor Father, he's gone." Poindexter HAIR CULTURIST MANUFACTURER Saturday, February 28 married and her daddy dead." He appointment was written all over the old man's face. His daddy bat the smile, he bobbed his eyebrows more. He had come to offer condemences and aid. In his disappointment he tightened the reins and bobbed the horse then started off for home again. Elvin looked at the perestroia equipage and smiled but made no mention of Bennett and Lida reached New York and were just about to leave the Pennsylvania Station for a hotel and then turned in time to see Linda and stock dropping her bags and running toward them, her face wreathed in emulsion. "Oh, Linda, You Darling. What are you doing here?" - All of my husband, she turned proudly to Linda. LindaCoustiff flushed confidently then recovered herself as she returned the heavy grain of the dress she looked into her eyes and she looked there no resentment or ill will. She still held Bennett's hand as she took Lidus arm and drew the two cloak "I owe you two my apologies," Lida, understanding, reached her arm about the girl, but before she continued, "I did you a wrong. My Bennet, I hope you'll forgive me if you can. I don't see how you can." — Bennet tried to intercept "We don't know how sorry we are." how sorry.—I'm glad you you're harried and I'm glad Lida is the girl I've learned a lot since I saw you. We are all ashamed we hold are wrong. I've needed to try and right some of those wrongs. I saw some horrible things in the world. I was ashamed of things America will be ashamed of some these days. "Oh, Professor Armstrong." Is he up here now? "Bronet interrupted me," he said, "and death—You heard about that?" She rattled on in a mob—trampled on as he and Professor Armstrong tried to prevent two innocent persons from being killed. "The death was horrible—horrible." Professor Armstrong was so shocked at the conditions that he has decided to devote his life to changing conditions. "The South is wrong—wrong—wrong." "Professor Armstrong is going to start settlement work in the South and try to get the white South to better bearer conditions of the colored world, which is their duty, they will better their own. It's a glorious work." I was just on my way down to meet him now. "Congratulations, Linda," I said. "I am a businesswoman. Lida, I adore you." She kissed Lida heartily. "Oh your honey-hoo!" Well, good luck to you. "I am awfully glad you are married. You were just on our way to be passport for England." Denise explained. "How wonderful! A honeycomb abroad, Oh, Goody."

A request from the AFRO for a statement from E. C. Brown, president, elicited no response. The federal Fred Taylor Pusey, deputy State Attorney General, upon his return from New York, where he made an investigation of real estate investments there by $1,000,000, said: "The 9,000 depositors of the private bank of Brown and Stevens, which closed recently after a business loss." When the business is inquired there will be a considerable shortage. But we cannot tell how much will be paid on the deposits, which are completed and all the assets converted. Brown and Stevens' New York properties are heavily mortgaged, but we hope to salvage $200,000 from them. "Their Philadelphia properties also are heavily mortgaged, and in many cases through the payment of extravagant fees and 'bonuses' for placing third or fourth mortgages as high as C. Brown, made a small fortune in New York real estate, but sarcophagi were saved by saving his bank business here." FINDS K. K. K.

SPEAKER HITS "SPONGERS" Criticised Associated Negro Press St. Louis, Mo.—Me" will pin a hale on the advertiser using only 14 gag lines, but I will not give to a sponger white or black in California and New York on a single line." This sentiment formed the major theme of an address by C. A. Franklin, editor of The Kansas City Call, before the National Negro Press, and Franklin's subject was "Advertisers and Space Buyers." Negro business houses who hold the Negro press in contempt in the matter advertising contracts, butush their hour of need, were hit by the speaker. A large southern insurance company that does not advertise, but that fired 36-inch advertisements in the county where we under fire was told by the speaker along with a Chicago Insurance company, whose head does no think the Negro press good enough for his advertisements, but can get for his annual statement. A warning that publishers must serve the needs of the race faithfully while making money for them, was sounded by Fr. James administration. The South not to allow a few miles of editorial transportation to stop their editorial columns from crying out against unequal railroad accommodations, whatever the reason, must勾结 respect for the buying power," said the speaker. "It is a serious matter that merchants who supply the Negro with the bulk of his needs, limit their advertisement efforts." The Negro press, strengthened by circulation built upon news, armed with fair rates and good services can take its share of advertising, and the Negro press it receives for local and national advertising, it can win respect for the race in this practical age."

I would like for the world to know that I am not guilty of what has been put upon me. have been praying for eight or nine years for God to stop the ways of people against me and just as I had almost lost faith, I opened on the 22 Psalms, the first two verses after which God directed me to go out in the world and tell the people of my innocence. Now I am ready to tell them. I want every one, white and colored, to call at my home and talk with me, and those who have framed up things on me for money and other things, I want them to shake my hand. My husband who is the foundation of what I have gone through has been his mistake for I prayed with him last night. I have been a prisoner for a long, long time, but now I am free.

CARDINALS SIGN LETTER Every Church Member Asked To Make Contribution March First An appeal signed by Cardinal Dougherty, of Philadelphia, Cardinal Hayes of New York, and Archbishop Curley of Baltimore, has been broadcast through Catholic churches of the country urging special contributions for Negro and Indians missions March 1. Few Negroes Are Catholics When we turn our eyes to the condition among the Negroes, we see a population of over 10,000,000 of whom hardly four out of a hundred are African-American and to indifference on the part of the people, for the Negro is by nature religious minded. The Bishops of the Southern States inform us that once they have opened their hearts filled and hymned, are turned away for lack of means. The churches, too, are well attended and several new ones have been opened within the past year. We work among the Negroes has been most gratifying in spite of opposition stirred up here and there by the Klan. Trouble-element opposition and prejudice and in the migration of the Negro northwards adding to the burden of parish support for those remaining Negroes. Negarding and sisters one Southern bishop writes thus: Spiritually Starved "Because they have chosen the colored people for their mission, they have drawn of their spiritual brethren dying of spiritual starvation. Yet as they know that "the ways of God are unsearchable, they are not deserving of their spiritual brethren so little where there is so much to be done. They realize that after all they are for pioneers preparing for those who will come after them. "The problem of providing educational facilities among both Negroes and Indians is not insurmountable. To establish permanently a mission it is necessary to found a school. "Most of the children in such schools are illiterate and bring a goodly percentage of their parents into the Church. "We are glad to note that the number of elementary schools has at least, and that several high schools are carrying on the good work. We are specially pleased to have the Negro students in Southern Maryland has begun its work and promises in time to rival the few colored non-sectarian institutions to which the Negro community secure a more advanced education. To Help Colored People "To supply the priests for the missions among the colored, three hundred Fathers of the Society of Saint Joseph are building a new Preparatory Seminary at Newburg on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico and are educating 134 students exclusively for colored work. The Fathers of the Society of Saint Joseph work of educating colored boys for the priesthood in Mississippi.

CHURCH SERVICES MINISTER FLAYS BOWLING ALLEY Housing And Travelers' Aid Also Topic Of Discussion At Preacher's Meeting Declaring that the he. M had witnessed teen age young men and women listen to indecent language with wagging mouth and women in the bowling alley, the Rev. J. T. Colbert called attention to the evil that such places may be in an address before the M. Minis- verse meeting Monday. The Reverend stated that he had gone into the place to see who it offered in the line of wholesome amusement for the young men of the town, and that should be given consideration by the leaders of Religion here. Housing Discussed Dr. Charles Stewart, pastor of Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, Washington, D.C. brough before me in the city. Dr. Stewart stated that almost entire block were vacant—either for sale or rent. The increasing population, he said, justifies the conclusion that the disregarding the laws of health and morality. As a matter of community and race welfare, the housing conditions should be made a sort of remedy applied. In many instances, according to the speaker, these houses were vacated by persons who were victims of a crime, and were able to keep up payments on their homes. There is more of this kind of loss than is generally known. He continued: "The residents of the city are moving to the suburbs for better living conditions, fresh air and health, and are building their homes. Colored people, as a rule, do not live in the city until others have built, then we come along and purchase it at a back-breaking price. We do not even build over others. We outgrow after others have outgrown or tired of them. The Apartment Situation The apartment house presents a serious problem. All kinds of people are crowded together and every room is full. Some instances were remembered where in only two houses ten families were living. The apartment, any kind of people who happen to have the rent price, in our homes, occupying the first floor and cramming the second floor and the apartments. "And you would be surprised, avowed Dr. Stewart," to know how many of our church members allow these very conditions to obtain a place equal to the distribution of population and lower the death and crime percentage. Great Spring Exodus Indicated The Rev. M. H. Davis introduced the subject of migration and stated that there was great need of some people whose places equal the distribution of population and lower the death and crime percentage.

Judge—I am going to ask you one more time. Did you not have that blacked jack? Coleman—As I said before, Your Honor. I may have hid it and— Judge—That's enough.

Jones Offer's Big Field Both as Exclusive or Side Line in Farming BY CARLTON S. SMITH To the average person the poultry industry does not impress itself as one of our greatest national assets. Perhaps this is due to the fact that many fowl are kept in comparatively small flocks on general farms and in the backyards in cities, towns and villages. When you realize that poultry can be found on practically every farm in the United States, to say nothing of the hundreds of commercial poultry plants and the thousands upon thousands of backyard flocks which are kept as a showpiece family farm, you are appreciated that this industry is one of great magnitude. The census in the year of 1920 showed that in the United States there was a total of 6,448,343 farms and that 5,882,044 were keeping poultry. Hundreds of thousands of dollars are being made each season from poultry. In 1923 the poultry industry reached the enormous total of $1,047,000,000) one billion and forty-seven millions of dollars. This amount is the thousands of backyard flocks. The value of poultry and eggs stands about seventh in importance as a farm crop. Poultry products exceed the value of horses and mules, sheep, swine, wool, dairy products, wheat by over $300,000,000, corn, cotton, orchard fruit, tobacco. Poultry business is about the largest business in the world in which all of us can share and realize the vast opportunities and greater profits to be had in poultry keeping. Opens Big Hotel In California San Diego, Calif.—The Douglas Hotel, the finest equipped colored hostelry on the Pacific Coast, opened its doors here a few days ago with an elaborate reception. Hundreds of leading race men and women from the entire West were present at the grand opening as a result of the invitations that had been issued by the race committee. The proprietor is George Runney, one of the most progressive Negroes in Southern California. WEEKLY REVIEW Form Partnership Mr. and Mrs. Williams, progressive proprietors of two modern up-to-date grocery stores at Catonsville, Md., are safeguarding their business by providing their partnership insurance plan, arranged by John L. Berry, of the local branch of the North Carolina Mutual. They are building a sound foundation for business careers of their two promoting young sons, George and Irving. Baltimore And Vicinity Recent announcement that the Bethlehem Steel Company would make the Sparrows Point plant the largest in the East and would spend more than $100,000,000 in construction and expansion, was the biggest labor news of the week. A large amount of Negro labor will be needed in accordance with the established policy of that plant. Inquiry at the municipal employment office, however, still shows a large unemployment, especially in the field of common labor. Colored applicants interviewed stated that work at 40 cents per hour even was hard to obtain. Construction projects that may give employment to a number of men are the following: Active work begun by the city on its $20,000,000, public improvement program. New eleven homes to be built in Forrest Park at a cost of $50,000. General Refractories Company to erect a building and seven dry kilns at a cost of $35,000. New library houses to be erected on the Reistertown rond at a cost of $45,000. A $500,000 apartment house to be erected at Upland and Woodside roads. A $10,000 service station to be erected at Liberty Heights and Overland avenue. A $10,000 garage to be erected on Maryland avenue. The Columbia Building Company will construct dwellings to cost $100,000. Throughout Maryland No relief is expected in the oyster industry this season and most of the canning plants have ceased operation. The oyster scare throw more than 60,000 men and women out of employment. At Conowingo the announcement has been made that active construction would start April 1st, on the hyrdo-electric plant, where 2000 men would be employed. The State Highway Commission has made an appeal that it would begin soon to widen 100 miles of State roads. This will give employment to hundreds of men. Throughout The Country Labor conditions throughout the north are still in a state of expectancy. There are large numbers of unemployed men, but it is expected that these will be taken up within three months.
