ANYTHING FOR THE MONEY IS TUSKEGEE IDEA Quartets From Hampton And Tuskegee Sing "Darkey" Songs Over Radio Good Housekeeping Magazine Cites It As Excuse For Sending Out Posters Anything to get the money seems to be the idea of the Hampton Normal and Industrial Institute, Hampton, Va., and Tuskegee Institute, Tuskegee, Ala., in a drive here to raise the balance of $2,000,000 needed to complete their $5,000, 000 endowment fund. How far this has been carried can be seen from the fact that quartets from both schools have been broadcasting Negro Spirituals nearly every Sunday to millions of radio listeners from stations WYZ, Radio Corporation of America, here, and WGY, General Electric Company, Schenectady, N. Y. "Curry Me Back To Old Virginny" Included in the repertoire of the quartets are a number of songs of the Old South in light of the word "darkey" occurs us in "Curry Me Back To Old Virginny." "Curry me back to old Virginny," "Therme me back to the cotton and cork grow." There's where the birds warble sweet in the spring-time.

I cannot describe to you the experience, when I met the part which called for little darkies, and darry, a proud Negro mother, and I speak to the thousands of resentful Negro mothers in Baltimore. I cannot conceive of such an offering as Good Housekeeping offering such an insult to the vast number of her Negro readers. I named the "Dagos," the "Lilies" or the "Michles," had she had the occasion to give my favorite magazine, and just a little over a month ago; I subscribed a gift, a birthday gift, a "What a gift!"

To assure that no offense was intended in referring to "little darkies" in our Valentine program, such a thing, for if there had been the slightest doubt in our mind, we would have used it. We would have used it. Housekeeping does, not of course, know who its readers are, and so, when we make no impression upon us, things to which we are perhaps accustomed, but which would offend others. We only offer 'our apologies and regrets and say with all sincerity that we are interested to note that the quartet did not refrain from singing songs in which colored words. I site this instance just to show you how easy it was for us to overlook reference in the Valentine party.

When students staged a demonstration and later a strike on the campus of the University several weeks ago, President McKenzie used little effort in attempting to persuade students to return. Instead he sent article after article to the local daily press containing his version of the attack, and editor of the Fisk University News, and Rev. Charles Stewart. "J. O. Midnight," parents back at home were flooded with newspaper clippings, containing a call to the university's side of the case. Knew Parents President McKenzie knew that the parents back home, the folk who put out the money, have little or no sympathy for students who desire college fraternities or to establish any foot of student government. The main thing the parents wanted was the students to learn their Aimead Works The appeal to the parents worked. Hundreds of letters and telegrams were sent to their kids to help them boys and girls telling them to stay in the school or their allowances would be cut off. R. S. Laurence presiding elder of the school, T. S. instructed teens T. S. C. instructed his nephew to return to school and meet every requirement. James T.

Nearly all of the letters sent President McKenzie began by stating, "I have carefully read the clippings and circular letters you sent us." Roland Hayes' wires were collected in the Fiskies in lamenting the catastrophe. My desire is with the end of effecting measures sufficiently potent to maintain the ideals for which Fisk University has stood during the past decade, which in the future it must continue to live for.

Coolidge Confines Address To Law Enforcement, Economy, Americanism RITCHIE IN PARADE None Of Race In Unit Which Represents State Of Maryland Washington, D. C.—In his inaugural address to-day, President Coolidge made no declaration of policy to- ward the Negro. Rather his keynote was Americanism. He dwelt largely upon law enforcement, inter- national understandings, greater economy and lower taxes. Law Obedience He declared that in a republic the first rule for the guidance of the citizens is obedience to law. "Those who want their rights respected under the Constitution and the law," he said. "ought to set the example themselves of observing the Constitution and the law." He said that "we could, with profit, he less sectional and more national in our thought. It would be well if we could replace much that is only a false and ignorant prejudice with a true and enlightened prized orace. But the last election showed that appeals to class and all found loyal to a common citizenship. The fundamental precept of liberty is toleration. We can not permit any inquisition either within or without the law or apply any rejection of the holding of the mind of America must be forever free." Here Stands America In an eloquent persecution he declared that "Here stands our country, an example of tranquility at home, a patron of tranquility abroad, a protector of its might but obedient to its conscience. Here it will continue to stand, seeking peace and prosperity solicitors for the welfare of the country, diplomatic waterways and natural resources, attentive to the intuitive counsel of womanhood, encouraging education, desiring the advancement of religion, supporting the cause of virtue and honor among the nations." "American seeks no earthly empire built on blood and force. No amulation, no temptation, lures her to legions and allegions which she sends forth are armed, not with the sword, but with the cross. The higher state to which she seeks the allegiance of all mankind is not of human, but of divine. She shepherds no pose save to merit the favor of Almighty God." Starts Out at Eleven Setting out from the White House shortly after 11 o'clock Wednesday morning, President Coolidge rode down Pennsylvania avenue with Mrs. Coolidge to the Capitol.

"We intervened in Haiti in 1915 when the European powers were too occupied with the world war to think about Haiti. We negotiated diplomaticly with the president of Haiti, had ever lost his life there. We were negotiating diplomatically for comfort when the killing of President Jacques Chirac caused to land armed forces, which we did the same day. "Since 1915 we have entirely established the Haitian legislative body, modeled the nominal president and we have collected and administered the country's finances. Furthermore, there is not one major achievement to the real value to the Haitians. "What we actually did in Haiti was to intervene for the benefit of the National City, New York and affiliated groups." Forbid Armed Force The hearings at which the N. A. A. C. P. secretary resigned were on the resolution introduced by Senator Richard S. McCain to hold the U.S. Government to use its armed forces to compel any other government to pay debts due to private American citizens. Others who resigned at the hearings were the editor of The Nation, who introduced a vast amount of documentary evidence and Ernest Gruening, former manager editor of The Nation, and now a lecturer and writer in Mexico and Central America.

NO COLORED BEACH, NO WHITE ONE Washington, D. C. — The people of the District of Columbia will not be permitted to visit the Tidal Basin this summer, Representative Martin B. Madden, of Illinois, will be the floor of the House last Thursday. This statement was made in reply to question 10 of the report asked by Mr. Madden, the chairman of the House appropriations committee, if he would mind allowing a beach for white people and allow them to have a little maintenance sum with the compensation he adds to the cannage about the beach for those allowed people later. I took the position that the Congress complied with the wishes of the people of the District of Columbia by eliminating the items appropriating the beach and covering into the Treasury the unexpended balance of the money west side of the Tidal Basin for the colored people. We gave them what they wanted: a beach to allow them to do what the Congress says they cannot do, a party to allow them to do what the Congress says they cannot do, a bathing the bathing beach, which has been used exclusively by white people, and a location for the continued use of this beach. Funds for its maintenance and operation would be derived from the The statement of Mr. Madden, howev- the beating beach this summer for which the appropriation has been struck, distinctly understood by those who have administrative charge of that place, be- "if the use of the existing beach by any circumstances, there is a growing disposition among the colored people in it, if it should be necessary to report to the cour- tory, the disposition has been advanced whereby the white people would use it, Congress adopts Wednesday, and it is not likely that any provision will be made for facilities in the District of Columbia.

SEGREGATIONISTS IN FIGHT TO ORGANIZE White Property Owners In Capital In City Wide Movement PUBLISH DAILY SHEET N. A. A. C. P. Says Results Will Affect Entire Nation Washington, D. C.—Property owners of Washington, D. C., whose private segregation agreements are to be brought before the Supreme Court in April by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, are preparing to organize the entire National Capital so that colored people will be unable to buy or occupy property in any but the districts assigned to them. The segregation advocates are publishing the North Carolina Citizen, which gives daily reports of the extension of the segregation movement. One of the offices of the N. A. A. & P. reports the status of the North Carolina District of Columbia, all the white property owners in a square, has been the Record of Jews an indictable prohibition the sale of any of the property to a colored person for the new Citizens. Newspaper Meadlines The same issue of the North Capitol Citizen reports that organization of the segregation forces by blocks on a city wide basis is proceeding and the news is headed by such lines as the following: "Bandophish Place Doing Great Work," "Street Continues To Get Result," "Adams Street Not To Be Outdone," "Other Street Also Beats," "Other Street Ahead," "Other Street a single of properly to colored people are being vigorously pushed by the white property owners, and it is reported that Justice Hoebling has fixed March 19th as the date for commencing the trial of a case involving the sale of land at 68 Seiten Place, N.W., where it had been charged. N. A. A. C. P. Watched James A. Cobb, attorney for the N. A. A. C. P., in the segmentation case coming before the U. S. Supreme Court, reports that the white segregationists of Washington are closely watching all the movements of the N. A. A. C. P., and are publishing in the North Capitol Citizen accounts of what the N. A. A. C. P. is doing in opposition to their movement. Commenting on this report, James Wilson Johnson, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., said: This movement in Washington has all the earmarks of a crusade. Here we have a functional registration organization which has for its purpose the pledging of white people of the whole city of Washington, black by block and street by street, to enter into agreement not to sell Menace Not Realized "This movement is a memorial of the country, have not yet tally realised, nor are they little able to succeed in Washington, the movement put in motion in office all over the country, this matter through the U.S. Members and friends of the association should bear in mind that we are not alone in the world in agreeing to address their property to Negroes, but to sell their property to Negroes, and to vote the powers of the State and the government to infiltrate such an area, to whites to break it and to sell their property to Negroes. This is the crum of the case we now have in the Supreme Court. We appeal interest to help us in this fight."

MANY PROPOSED FOR AN OFFICE UNDER COOLIDGE Washington, D. C.—Recalling an editorial in the Washington Post, 28 October 1954, which nominated the first of the 100 best-selling books of the Secretary of Agriculture in President McKinley's cabinet, James C. Waters, secretary of the Howard University Law School, sent a letter to the press of the country urging President Coolidge to appoint Negroes to office. According to Mr. Waters, the Republican party, to date, has appointed only four Negroes to important roles. They include the Minister to Liberia, the Recorder of Reed, Custom Officer, a New Orleans and Collector of International Revenue at New York. He continues: Chas. W. Anderson, of New York, served as Collector of Internal Revenue for the Second Wall Street District of New York under President Roosevelt and Taft and for two years under President Wilson. Here we have a man whose earnings have repeatedly been adopted and published by the Bureau of Internal Revenue as its own Twenty-eight White men were appointed to office as a Board of Tax Appeals at annual sales of $10,000 each.

Washington, D. C. — Fastest thing on two feet in the Metro, the Police Department in Detective Sergeant Paul Jones. The sergeant has done a hundred yards in ten seconds. He won a prize as the fastest run, but it is necessary he keeps in trim by "running down" crooks. For reference Bill Hawkins, alarms the sergeant and the sergeant saw Bill. Then Bill started to run away, and—so Bill was arrested. Asked by the AEFO to point out crimes in Washington who had made good, Supermendent and Mayer Sullivan selected Sergeant Paul Jones. The sergeant does not anxious to talk about the prize is half the declared. Here is his life history in a few words: Sergeant Jones, 18 continues to serve the short time in the World War. Jones was a Heineman in the 28th Infantry. There were four officers who did their bit in the war, two chief petty officers in the navy, one in the army transport service, and one in the infantry, and the last in the service in France. One of these Jones boys served 29 years in the navy and another 19 years in the service. Prove these facts by fishing blood. There are two colored detective sergeans on the D.C. force. Detective Sergeant Jackson is the other, and when the two of them arrested James Alonzo Frey, who murdered Dr. N. Brown, president of the N.A.A. military, in his home and remains, remaining at large for nearly a year. Frey drew a life sentence and joined the then clothes brigade. Legless Fakir Sergeant Jones recalled the arrest of Dr. Oliver Leon Dosleyas, alias Dr. George Wilson Jackson in Richmond, whom authorities regarded as a terrorist. The lefthand man used artificial limbs and posed as a victim of a race riot in the South. He received collateral charges and was sent to prison passed less checks. In his room were found some 25 letters mostly from women. In New York, Jones arrested Bennett Parker, alleged to have stolen money from a man named Lewis, jewelry from a man named Lewis, Parker drew a four year sentence. Jones' last word was a tribute to Grandi, assistant chief of head of detectives: "We are a fine gentleman and gives us a fair shake." COL. YOUNG'S MOUNT BEFORE MAY 30TH.

HOSPITAL OVERCROWDED BY PATIENTS Plant Arranged To Accomoate 600 Now Has 641 Registered AFRO REPORTER WRITES Spends One Month In Tuskegee And Gives Impressions BY T. J. CALLOWAY The town of Tuskegee is neither mountains nor valleys, neither table lands nor marshes; it is merely an inhabited spot among the cotton fields that stretch on to the Tallapoosa River and up and down to most anywhere. There are magnolias, green bays, water oaks and long leaf pines, to prove that here is something differ- from Wurmd. It is said that De Soto in his search for the fountain of youth, camped for a season at Tuskegee in his wanderings from Florida to the Mississippi River. The residents of the Tuskegee village are mostly white folks. They are bankers, merchants, mill owners, planters, and retired capitalists. The other citizens of the country are colored, the ratio being about 12 black to each white. Made Famous by Booker T This town made famous by Booker T. Washington, is very near the center of Negro population of the United States. A radius of 800 miles from Tuskegee includes Baltimore and Washington, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City, Oklahoma, half of Texas, and all of Florida. With these points in mind the committee of experts, headed by Dr. William Charles White, of Pittsburgh, recommended to the government the location of a veterans hospital for colored ex-servicemen. Tuskegee, with the addition-reason that the institute would be an inspiration and guide in rehabilitating the men wrecked in the World War. One Hundred Buildings The story of the Tuskegee school is known to every school child who has read Booker T. Washington's "Up From Slavey." It is true that no language can truly picture this little city into which the dreams of Washington have grown. Thousands of acres of land, more than a hundred buildings, two thousand students, recitations, shops, etc., all make up the school. Let us suppose that Dauglass High was located in a campus extending from the AFRO office at Eutaw street to Drudl Hill Park, from Linden to Pennsylvania avenue, and suppose that there were a hundred or more buildings, big and little, including a post office, a bank, hotel, department store, confections, public library, city laundry, a dining room, large enough to feed 2000 at one service, a Bethel church, city hospital, shops, power plant, etc., and you may have a partial idea of the Tuskegee school. No Snow. No Ice It was my good fortune to spend the whole of the month of January as the guest of Clinton I. Calloway, director of the extension work of Ruskegee. Not a nake of snow was for an occasional hunting trip I seen and there was no ice. Except was a constant sightseer of the school and the veteran's hospital. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS IN NEGRO HISTORY QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS IN NEGRO HISTORY Questions pertaining to Negra History anywhere if of general interest and not too long, will be answered by Mr. Parker in this column. When space will not permit if the subject is not suitable letters will be personally answered, subject to proper limitations, and when a-stamped envelope addressed. Addresses andcriptions to Negra Parker, the Associated Negro Press, 3423 Indiana Avenue, Chicago, Illinois. Copyright, 1924 by Associated Negro Press. In an editorial by Arthur Drisbane in the Nerald and Exkanniner last week, the writer claimed a great civilization for the Negro and that it was the equal and probably the superior of anything of the white race has accomplished. Where does he secure the facts? B. H. Chicago, Il. Brisbane has his facts by reading and studying the archaeological reports and discoveries. It is a subject which few Negros know anything about and apparently care less. The Negro is asleep. The white man knows what he means and white some suppose iters like B. H. Chicago mind writing about it to take some of the concept out of the dominant white. Were the Moors of Spain Negroes? T. L. K. Omana, Nebr. Yes, Negroes and black Negroes at that. They ruled Spain for 700 years and when they were waged, men and bank into rival maddotade, one of Napoleon's marshals, was a dark complexion Moor and founded the present resigning dynasty of Sweden. Was. Euclid, the founder of modern geometry, a Negro? Euclid, the Negro and an African, taught mathematics at Algeria in Egypt. I have read somewhere that one of the great dynasties of India was founded by Vaccinus in 127—K J. Philadelphia, Pa. The present dynasty at Delhi was founded by Vaccinus in 127—K J. Philadelphia, Pa. The former dynasty brought African soldiers to India to be his body guard. Later they rebelled overthrew him and usurped the throne. Near Nerima, they were among the very earliest inhabitants of India and created its civilization. The so-called Aryan, or white people came later as inhabitants but were allowed up by the darker peoples. When were Negroes first disframed? The Negro was first disfranchised in the District of Columbia by a Republican Congress. While all the inhabitants were disfranchised, the state legislature negro vote. Oliver P. Morton, Senator from Indiana, fought it bitterly and warned the republican that it would be precedent which the Senate would find. But the republicans passed it and the words of Morton came true. Tuskegee Veterans Hospital is succeeding. It is the first Government Hospital to be manned by all colored staff. It cost $3,000,000. It consists of 100 buildings and 320 acres of land. 360 persons are employed and 641 patients taken care of. VISITED YUSKEGLE MOTON WORKED FOR COLORED PERSONNEL MOTON WORKED FOR COLORED PERSONNEL When Vice President Coolidge dedicated the hospital February 12, 1923, there was a full white staff. The officer in charge was a man of southern birth who boldly announced that no race men or women would be employed except in a menial capacity. The white staff had been appointed over the protest and in violation of a direct promise to Principal Moton of the Pascoege Institute. While Dr. Moton was exerting every force at his com- THE BROADWAY mand to aid such organizations as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the National Medical Association, and the Negro newspapers to force a change to a Negro staff, many persons thought Moton was in league with the South. But time eventually proved that he had done heroic service. At some future time the full story of his work will be told. To Dr. Michel O. Dumas belongs a great credit for his volunteer services in aiding the government to find an efficient medical staff. practically every appointee has been passed upon by the National Medical Association, of which Dr. Dumas is president. When Governor Brandon, of Alabama, was introducing the Vice president at the dedication program he made these remarks to our group: "The Negroes of America are on trial in their government." As you rendered service in war it expects you to render service in peace." These words proved to be prophetic of what was to follow. While a full white staff seemed firmly established in the hospital, the news of the dedication had barely reached to the readers of the world before a delegation saw President Harding and convinced him that the greatest appeal for fair play ever made to the Negro voters had be directed by the Negro voters to defeat the administration unless a Negro staff was substituted for the white staff. Never before has the race stood so solidly behind a program. KU KLUX RAID IS RECALLED BY CLIPPINGS In the research division of the Tuskegee Institute there are newspaper clippings which, if placed end to end would reach a quarter of a mile, in which Negro editors and newswriters demanded a Negro staff. Within six months Calhoun, the first Negro, was appointed. The whites as a last ditch spectacle staged a Ku Klux parade to frighten, but which only served to stiffen the effort of the race. When finally on July 7, 1924, the last white person was gone and a full Negro staff engaged it must have occurred to Governor Brandon that the Negroes of America had courageously met trial in peace and, as in war, had won a stiff fight. 640 Patients It is confidentially whispered from Washington that the Tuskegee hospital is the best managed of all the veteran hospitals. It is an open fact that while the hospital was designed to house 600 patients there are now 641 under treatment by the Negro staff, each of whom is getting the best of care. DEACON FINED $25 Chicago, (P. N. S.)—Deacon Wyman and Breese was fined $25 and cost for striking Theodore Harvey over the head with a jelly glass Saturday night. The district testified church services had been disturbed by boys in the neighborhood and he ran out and hit the first boy he met. Successful operation of this hospital is a tribute to the wisdom of Dr. R. R. Moton, of Tuskegee, who proposed it to Dr. Jos. H. Ward, who manages it and the hundreds of employers who help make it go. New U. S. Veteran's Hospital Cost Three Millions Nine Doctors With Thirteen Assistants For Patients New Buildings Urgently Needed For Recreation Work Dining Department Serves 2500 Meals Every Single Day United States Veteran's Hospital No. 91, located at Tuskegee within a mile of the school, has been erected at a cost of about three million dollars. The approach to the hospital is over a live mile stretch of concrete highway from the little railroad junction, Cheah, through the hospital grounds, the school grounds and terminating at the town of Tuskegee. The hospital consists of 29 buildings, mostly of fireproof construction, on 320 acres of land. The principal building, the Infirmary, with the hospital offices ward, the memorial and the dining department, make a complete hollow square, permitting passage throughout without the necessity of going out of doors. Directly infront of the square is the administration building, where are located the headquarters for medical and business staffs. Nine Doctors W Assistant The medical officer in charge is Colonel Joseph H. Ward, born in North Carolina, reared, educated and appointed from Indianapolis, Indiana. He brings to his task experience as a military officer and with a naturally modest, quiet manner, he appears to be proving a soldierly executive. The assistant medical officer in charge is Dr. F. A. Stokes. Other chief medical officers are: Dr. J. D. Nelson, tuberculosis, Dr. G. S. Moore, mental, Dr. C. R. Humbert, laboratory, Dr. J. T. Anderson, surgery, Dr. T. B. Davis, dentistry, Dr. R. Carey, eye, ear, nose and throat, Dr. H. F. Davis, reconstruction, and Miss E. J. Bullock, of Chicago, chief nurse. Assisting doctors are: P. P. Barker, G. C. Branche, W. F. Howard, New Buildin Needed For R There is an urgent need for a recreational building where concerts, moving pictures, lectures, games of all kinds and varied amusements may be staged. The government has gone far to give these disabled men a happy environment without which medical treatment may be in vain. The addition of a suitable hall and stage would enable traveling troupes to donate a few acts for these men. Amateur entertainers would add to the liveliness of the narrowed existence. Another need is for religious services for Protestant members. The 200 patients who are of Dining Department Meals Every HEAD OF HOSPITAL PETER H. Dr. Joseph Ward, surgeon-in-chief of Vet's Hospital at Tuskegee. An average of 2500 meals a day are served under the personal direction of Miss A. B. Dixon, chief dietitian, and her two assistant dietitians. Altogether there are 11 dining rooms and ward diet kitchens to supervise. It takes two barrels of flour a day. Flight hundred pounds of chicken is the requirement for one chicken dinner. A simple breakfast of bacon and eggs calls for 400 pounds of bacon and 170 dozen eggs. However, it only takes 300 pounds of sugar a day to keep everybody sweet. Business Department Colonel Ward is very fortunate to have as his business executive so efficient and loyal a co-worker as Walter S. Burke, a native of Portsmouth, Va., educated at Howard and University of Penn. It is a rare combination to find efficiency coupled with a popularity among associates. but Mr. Burke appears to have done this to the satisfaction of the government and to the credit of his group. Among the clerks and sten- The Amo-American-South's Biggest and Best Weekly To the right of the square lies a string of buildings that includes wards for convalescents, officers quarters, nurses' home and a home for female employees other than nurses. To the left of the square is another string of buildings for mental patients in their various stages of illness. Population of 1000 In the rear of the square are the laundry, power and heating plant, garage, attendants' quarters and superintendent's buildings. The hospital has a population of 1000, of whom 641 are patients, the others office employees. The personnel consists of 22 medical officers, 57 nurses, 70 dining department employees, 75 in business department, 17 laundresses, 30 orderlies, 25 guards and a number of miscellaneous persons. It costs about $63,000 a month or $750,000 a year to run the hospital. With Thirteen rsFor Patients S. O. Johnson, D. King, B. G. McKenzie, O. R. Sheffield, A. D. Simington, W. G. Ruby, W. S. Taylor, T. T. Tildon, G. A. Birge, and B. D. Boyd. Assistant chief nurses are: Misss Amelia J. Gears, R. L.; Gussie Norfeet, Ca.; Ianthia L. Williamson, Ala.; Olivette Mason, Ark.; Lenora Gillard, Minn.; Ethlyn Nichols, S. C., with 12 head nurses and 38 staff nurses. As a layman I do not feel that I can say more about the medical staff than that the patients seem satisfied with their treatment and the supervisors from Washington have been checking up with apparent satisfaction. One thing is certain, that I have never met a more congenial group. the Roman Catholic Church are carefully looked after by a representative of the Knights of Columbus, who is stationed at the hospital and by a priest who comes from the city of Montgomery, Ala., three times a week. But the Negro Baptist and Methodist leaders and organizations seem to have made no organized effort to serve their constituents who are the great majority of the patients. The only exception is that a service is conducted usually on Sunday afternoons by some volunteer from the Tuskegee school. It must be remembered that most of the patients in the hospital are not likely to leave it alive. ment Serves 2500 by Single Day ographers and others of the business department there appeared a preci- cision and snap indicating team work of a high order. E. L. Yates, superintendent of grounds and build- ings, seems to be the Babe Ruth in looks and achievements, and a Mr. Jones, in charge of machinery, is a regular Walter Johnson when it comes to boilers, pumps, electrical difficulties and heating apparatus. Library and Occupational Work At the risk of partiality I feel that the work of two women in this great institution should be especially mentioned because their work is in the class of super-service that cannot be imposed in any known currency. Mrs. Mattie Benson Manley is in charge of what is known as "occupational therapy" the object being to give the man something to occupy their minds and hearts so that while taking medicinal treatment they will not suffer from loneliness and melancholy. Basketry, weaving, painting, needle work, head work, carving and music is only a partial list of the work done. The wares made by these men are very creditable, finding ready sale to visitors. In a truly touching way, Mrs. Manley combines the tenderness of a mother with the cheerfulness of a sister, and we understand why these men, sick, minds weakened, never again to become normal humans, gather around her with so much appreciation. Mrs. Sadie M. Peterson, librarian, comes direct from New York Library. With 4000 books of fiction, travel, biography, etc., and many current periodicals, she seems to feel that it is up to her to awaken every patient to a taste for reading. The library is crowded most of the time with those patients who are able to be about. With a wheel cart, Mrs. Peterson and her assistant, Miss Lucas, move through the wards distributing books, papers, and magazines, stopping to read a short story to some blind patient, leaving a picture book to the man who cannot read. She has organized the only literary society to be found in any government hospital and has a number of reading clubs. Many a man who entered this hospital a war wreck will issue forth with a taste for better things. Tuesday, 5 P. M., Dead Line Paramount [Combined with Black Swan] REG. U.S. PAT. OFF.

SOUTHERN ARTIST IS SELF TAUGHT YODLER "Clin" Jones, of Boatnor and Jones, who are playing the Regent this week, is the third of a trio of colored male vanderville artists who have done a momentful thing teaching them vodelling. Jones is a native of New Orleans, and has been singing since a small boy. He was filling a vaudeville date in Galveston, Texas, he tells, when he thought he would like to add a yodei number to his repertoire. Without any teacher he began on his difficult task. There is a sustained note at the end of the piece that he is now using with which he had much difficulty at the beginning. A violinist in the theatre where he was performing suggested that he move about while holding the note. Following the tip he tried it and found that he was able to better sustain the tone while in motion than while standing still. John Churchill and Charles Anderson, two other colored vaudevillons, are also adept at this form of singing. Mr. Anderson is, I believe, a native of Birmingham, Alabama, Churchill from Ohio, and as before sated, Mr. Jones is from New Orleans. A musical authority tells us that in the performance of yodels the singer changes quickly from chest to head tones and back again. This form of music is common among the shepherds of the Swiss and Ty- The rarity of the sir is said to contribute largely to the yodeling of these simple past musicians. When a singer is unconscious whom the latter have, undoubtedly, inherited their skill, there is no wonder to their folly; are not Negro singers who have taught themselves this difficult art, none of whom have probably been closer to a map in the village schoolhouse.

STAR Berry Carey's "Oriental Senators" formerly seen here earlier in the season at the Kcest, have returned to Baltimore with a different routine from that used at the Pennsylvania Avenue Theatre. He is a spirited group of chorers than when there has been no more animated bunch appearing at this touring artist. He looses a super array of twists, bends and dislocations. This specialty was one of the outstanding performances. The playhouse is named to drag on Monday afternoon, some of the "hits" were rather too long drawn out.

C.—Carl Diton, foremost pianist of the race, appearing through the efforts of President J. B. Randolph, first Negro president of Claflin College, and an enthusiastic audience Thursday evening at 8 o'clock, enthralled his listeners with his remarkable technique and expression, his program included many of the most difficult works of the Masters. Chacoune, his first number, by Bach and transcribed for piano by Beprouille, and others that there was present a master that could charm and interest. He followed his polyphonic transcription of the works of the pianist: (a) A Scherzo in E major, (b) Nocturne in F sharp major, and (c) A Polonaise in A flat major. These works were often heard by audiences as some of the other works of Chopin, but were just as beautiful. A "Conatata" by Scherzo in E major, group then two vocal solos (1) "Oh Thou Sublime Evening Star," from Tanhauser by Wagner and (2) A Beetle by Punsel, were sweetly rendered.

A tea kettle, saw, washboard, pitchfork and musical glasses were used in this unique orchestra. The story of this organization was told by the saw lover, the saw lover, a native of Charlotte. Keeping the company was for lore of lore fiedmond, a pianist, and saw player, a musician saw to the casual observer just and always used by carpent- The story of this organization was told by someone very sure, a native of Charlotte, N.C. Kerr formerly was the owner of Ursace Redmond, a pianist and saw player also. Now he is to the casual observer just an ordinary tool that is used by carpenters, but on one side it may be played with a violin bow or harpens like those used for a marimba or xylophone. Kerr and Redmond used two of these instruments in combination and filled a number of vaudeville dites. A half column of space was dealer when they filled a date in a house for whites in that city. The pair being free agents did not affiliate with any circus, but accepted work Early last December found the team in Wheeling, W. Va., where they became acquainted with three other musicians of the musical pitchwork, the tea kettle performer, and the manipulator of the melodic instrument. The new combination performed solely in restaurants (a choice easily understood for the inner man of a musician) as serving the same as ordinary coffee. On Christmas eve, last year, the quintet entertained in the Washington Restaurant, Keystone. They turned up the piano and the violin receiving $170.00 in tips and salary for the engagement. The tones of the musical tea kettle are said to be like the violin but one stinging and is bowed like a violin or to be exact. Like a cello, the washboard is played on the violin and the violin thimbles across its surface, or lying upon the frame like a snare drum. The latter supplies the place of percussion instruments in the orchestra. Unfortunately the financial returns of the Christmas eve engagement wrecked the quintettee; unfortunately, the new that would have undoubtedly secured them paying vaudeville dates. The exotic instruments used by various nations have produced more noise than these household ones of our subjects.

Farina Praised A New York picture reviewer "caught" an "Our Gang" comedy at Loew's State in that city. Here is what he thought of "Farina." There was a rough and tumble comedy participated in by a group of youngsters, most interesting of which I thought was a Little Negro boy (or was it girl?) called Farina. Here is a character that native self-motivation and natural intelligence served so heroically in bringing Baby Loew's Coogan to fame and fortune. "Why doesn't one write a little comedy for Farina and see what would become of it? It is worth the chance." "West Indies Blues" In Dispute The attorney for the Kay-Stern Music Publishing Company is said to be suing the Clarence Williams Music Publishing Company, claiming a fringement on the United States District Courts of New York.

The claim for ownership of "My Dawg" first used by Bert Murphy in 1971, was used as those objects to the creator and Layton's use of "Deep River" in their "Dear Old Southland." Anything successful in popular music brings forth a host of claimants for its origination. The decision is awaived and will establish another copyright law formerly legal holes as a sieve.

The attorney for the Kay-Stern Music Publishing Company is said to be suing the Clarence Williams Music Publishing Company, claiming infringement on "Ily Dawg" in the east Indianapolis area. The company is based in New York. Watterson Berlin and Spyder, and a mechanical company are co-defendants.

A pistol shot from a jealous boy forces the big decision. Did the doctor dare reveal his past? If he saved his rival he would betray his own secret, lose the woman he loved, and put himself behind him. But there was his oath to humanity. What would YOU have done? See 'K The Unknown' for the answer. "First Steppers" Hurig and Seamons' burlesque unit playing at the 125th Street Theatre, New York, to which a group of 80 students are expected to exceed the amount grossed by the Jimmy Cooper show which has formerly been the pace-setter on the circuit. The artists were recruited from "Connie's tim," a band also accompanying them. Last week, the aggregation played to capacity, and established a position in the group that will unquestionably see many more older performers engaged on the wheel. Combinations of white and colored artists seem to be the solution to the problem, as ways measured up to satisfactory box-office standards. The splendid results obtained by the co-mingling and fraternizing of both performers when satisfactory box-office results are extremely gratifying.

It was Delaney's second knockout over Flowers within two months. H23 Only Slight Lead Daleyne, was only slightly in the lead when the fight ended. He took the first round easily, but the Georgian held him even longer third by a slight win. More than 12,000 persons witnessed the fight and the gate receipts amounted to $53.337.

A right flush to the face Flowers sprawling on the vas in midering counted to two counted the finish, however, the boxing enthusiasm present, keyed to a high pitch, had witnessed a double foul and a double knockout, and excite- All the trouble, as well as the finish, came in the fourth round. For three rounds Delaney was leading, but putting the chance to dreever over the right which knocked out Flowers in their last battle. Not until the fourth session, however, did the opportunity, and then things began to happen. Delancy Disqualified In the last minute of the fourth session Delaney worked Flowers to a neutral corner and with a right the saw drowy flowers against the left. The Tigress regained his feet without waiting for a count, but when he saw Delaney pushing across the ring to finish the job, Flowers dropped to one corner. Before action could be taken, however, if indeed, Haley contemplated disqualifying Flowers, Delaney, eager and excited with victory within his grasp, continued to wait while he was down, resting and awaiting a count on his left knee, drove a hard right to Flowers' face. Here Referee Haley stepped between the men and order each time he was down. The archer then declared his intention of disqualifying Delaney for striking Flowers while the latter was down. The crowd was in an unpour and clenched an officer from the front. Considering the monitor, and at the urgent protests of Delaney and his handlers, Haley after a lapse of several minutes, decided to let the contest resume. The officer Minson, to start fourth round over again, There were only a few passages in arms in the recited fourth round when Flowers entered in a heap in muling as Delaines sent a right to Congratulates Delancey Flowers dropped into Delaney's dressing room after the light and indicated plainly that he was thoroughly satisfied.

Philadelphia heavyweight, who is a sparing partner of Champion Jack Dempsey knocked out Tatjana Dempsey in the fifth round of their scheduled 12-round semi-final bout, a right to the jaw sending Jackson to the floor 30 seconds after the start and a right to the round. Haley halted the contest then, dispensing with the necessity for counting Jackson out. The Ohioan was knocked three times in fourth round, once for a count of six and twice for nine counts, the bell coming to his rescue. A few light lefts to the face followed by a right to the jaw finished Jackson in sixth-round affair Bob Lawson, of Albania, a stalemate of Tiger Flowers, knocked out Solder George Jones, of Bartlett, after timing him in the fourth round. Jones weighted 150 and Lawson 177%. It was a right hook squirrelly to the button that put Jones out of the running. Story of the fight by rounds follows: Round One Flowers started after Delaney and shook Jack up with a snappily left to the side of the head. Delaney came up with a right which backed his right which backed the Georgian up. He followed this up with a similar punch and the Tiger was joined to his heels. Flowers continued to in and took two more hard rights to the side of the head. Delaney with a right to the side of the head, leaving a slight mark on Jack's eye. Jack shook the Tiger up with another straight right to the face and took a few light taps in his mouth. It was Delaney's round. Round Two They danced around the ring. Delaye shapped Flowers with a light left to the face, following with a right swung a hard right and a left which caught Delaye on the jaw. They didn't do Jack any good. Flowers trapped Delaye with a right and Jack missed a vicious swing to the left. Flowers backed Delaye to Delaye, but doing little damage. Delaye had little difficulty holding off Flowers with a long straight left. Flowers backed Delaye into a neutral corner and hooked a right to Round even.

Round Three They fiddled about a little and Flowers whipped a right to Delaney's body. Delaney came through with two hands behind the Tiger back on his heels. Flowers was doing all sorts of fancy footwork. It was plainly seen that he was trying to outsize the Canadian. Flowers hooked a left arm through another of his famous rights. Flowers ripped a sharp left to Delaney's jaw and followed it up a moment later with the same blow and the Tiger tore in, battering the ropes as the bell sounded.

THOMPSON Philadelphia, Pa.—The commissioners of the Eastern Colored League turned out enmasse Saturday to a meeting at the X. M. C. A. building, 1734 Christian street. One of the express purposes for the assembly was to complete the schedule for the coming season.

New Park for Lincolnns Jim Keenan's Lincoln Giants, the pride of the Bronx, will deport their home town from New York to the home club the coming season. This doesn't mean that the Lincoln have the slightest intention of deserting the Protectory Oval, the order as in days of yore, but to prevent his athletes from becoming stale, "Glenial Jim" has stepped out and leased the Chester, Pn., ball park and will entertain the league during the Friday's during the coming season. With this park in line it is possible for the clubs to negotiate one end of the circuit in the following week, which is an established Sabbath Day proposition, the clubs will then go to Wilmington, Monday, George Robinson, of the Potomics, will play at the Blues Hen town on Mondays and the Sabbath Day will be put in with the Lincoln at Chester, then the established Thursday and Saturday at Hildale Park, will permit the sandwiching of the football with the minton and Chester parks will adhere to the twilight ball that is already popular with the local fans.

The game was fiercely fought throughout but the Flaming Youths went into the lead at the initial loss up and wore never headed. Coach Sweney started off his second sound but the visitors set such a rapid pace that he was forced to call in his best before three minutes had elapsed. The crowd went wild when the famous "Soup" Turner and his mates appeared on the scene and they truly expected this aggression would check the Quaker City five, but they had not reckoned with the power of the invaders. The first half ended with the score at 16 in favor of the Jungle Beasts. Second Half The second half found the home boys making a desperate fight to keep their record unsuilled and they scored a score after five minutes of playing while holding the visitors scoreless. Than the superior ability of the Panthers asserted itself when two games were played, the team brought the score to 19 to 13. Then "Soup" Turner scored his only field goal of the game and added to his total to 19 points and ended their scoring for the day. With two minutes to go a field goal was made by Campbell and a foul by Fulchon put the game on ice for the visitors.

Georgia Deacon Awarded Decision When Fouled By De兰ey; Fight Resumed NEAR RIOT IN GARDEN Special Police Called When Fans Storm And Boo Judges In General Mix-up New York, N. Y.—The New York Boxing Commission began this week to study its own rules and regulations with a witness representing of the "double foul" that occurred in the Flowers-Delaney fight in Madison Square Garden at Thursday's competition. The Commission has discovered that the rules are contradictory and it seems highly probable that certain changes will be recommended when the board meets in regular session on Tuesday afternoon. There was almost a riot in Madison Squara Garden when Referee Patsy Haley indicated that he has for hire Tiger Flowers will hit it, The famous Garden was in an *in* roar. Hundreds tried to rush to usseh both fingerles of the corners, all nouncing to some of the newspaper men that he awarded Flowers the light on a foul. The sense of much arguing pro and con. Haley, sensing a possible riot, reconsidered his decision and informed Manager Miller in Flowers' corner that Flowers would have been obliged to explain that it was his earnest desire that the match continue. Under the circumstances, Haley used excellent judgement in his chair. Mr Miller nodded asent. Which probably explains the oft repeated claims of Miller that Flowers never accepted a contest on unless totally disobeyed by a blow. Later he decided that Flowers himself had committed a foul by going down without being hit. Haley's final excuse for permitting the night's foul was that it was the fact that both men had committed fouls and that it was therefore a fifty-fifty proposition. Flowers was at fault because he went down with being hit and Dolaney was guilty while the latter was technically down. Walter Hooke Investigates Deputy Commissioner Walter Hooke, who was at the ringleon on Thursday night, was assigned to look at the rules he reads with this situation, and yesterday Walter pointed out that the rules conflict. **Section III of the boxing regulations there is a paragraph which reads as follows:** "When a contestant is down, the response timekeeper shall at least begin calling the count with a pictic the arm. If the contestant fares before the count of ten seconds, he should a contestant who in do fare before the count of ten reached and again go down internationally without being struck, the count will resume the count where it left off." In the Delaney-Flowers fight the Tiger was knocked down the飞翼. A right to the chin put him on the ground. He himself of a count of five or six tried to a neutral corner. He availed then wabbed to his feet. Haley motioned to Delaney, who was standing in the opposite corner, to come on and attack the Tiger across the ring, and Flowers, seeing him coming, dropped back to one knee. Delaney let a punch go that grazed the top of his head. The count over Flowers 'where it left off,' as provided in the Boxing Commission's rules. The paragraph dealing with 'situation is printed on pages of the commission's book of rules.' ARMSTRONG DRIBBLERS DEFEATED DOUGLASS HI HERE ARMSTRONG BOWS TO DOUGLASS HI For First Time In Eight Years Local Tossers Win From Capital Quint JACKSON SHINES Hi School Forward Leads Scorers With Five Goals And Two Free Throws The Douglass high school basketeers humiliated the quitter from Armstrong Tech last Friday afternoon at the New Albany 33 to 20 score. It was the first time in eight years that the local tossers have been victorious over the Washington team and Douglass presented one of the best five-man combinations that has taken the floor this season. Tech was trailing a 22-9 score at the end of the first half and the Monmouth kids are just getting warmed up to Armstrong fought hard, keeping the pace that defeated Dunbar last week, but Coach Gibson's cohorts were equal to the occasion and had the invaders dizzy trying to fathom douglass' speedy passing game. Keckson led Douglass scorers, with 101 field, goals and two fouls out of the tries. Shorts gave a quarter to Keckson, who fouled five e. throws out of as many attempts. Whittington ran Jackson second best as high scorer with four doubledeckers for a total of eight points. The visitors used a total of 10 men trying to stop the onslaught of the factory bent quint, while the only substitutes used by the defense were the backs, who substituted for Shorts and Whittington, respectively in the last quarter. Rotten Sportsmanship A bit of rotten sportsmanship was demonstrated during the game, when Whiting, an Armstrong player, fell near the sidelines in an attempt to get the ball and one of the Douglass school boys kicked him before he could get up. Several hystanders saw the act and the matter was reported to the school authorities. Outside of this incident the game was clean and fought with friendly rivalry. Preliminary found two class teams, 2-A 4 and 2-A 3, hooked up in a spirited battle which ended in a 23-14 victory for the latter.

Champs Hampton, Va.—The blue and white of Hampton was lowered for the first time this season by the maroons of Morehouse in a fast basketball gabe by the score of 18-15 in an extra period of five minutes. The team was tied at half time; two field goals by Hampton tied the score at about one minute of the final gun: a Morehouse player fouled, but the Hampton player missed the free throw with 25 seconds to play. An extra period was played and Morehouse won by three points, then the downfall the overtime by inaccuracy in shooting foul shots. C. L. A. A. Champs This was the fifth victory over Hampton for the cohorts of Coach Harvey. It was an even battle all the way. No team ever had an advantage over one of the many rallies. Beaten by no team in the C- I. A. A., and thus champions for the second consecutive season. Hampton won the far South every inch of the way. First Half Morehouse opened an attack that resulted in two points when Traylor, who scored the final two Morehouse points, sank a goal. Ex-captain Langston made his one costly slip of the game, when he hit Morehouse, sending her ahead, 4-3. But again came one of Alexander's thrilling shots, and Hampton was ahead by 5-4. He followed this with a free throw to give Hampton a two point lead. Langston broke up a sure shot, but Morehouse was playing brilliantly and Archer tied the score with a half. McNichols went in for Alexander, who weakened a little. Brown substituted, for Thorne. McNichols went to center and Brown to forward. Morehouse fouled and McNichols broke the tie which stood 6-6. Bailey was fouled and tied the score in throw, just as the half ended with both teams in a 7-3 deadlock. Second Half Morehouse scored first in the last half and went ahead on Archer's shot, with Captain Jones repeated with a beautiful shot from near mid-floor and tied things up again at 9.4. Here Morehouse initiated a vally that might have given her victory, but for the undaunted spirit and fine playing of the entire "Seaside" line-up, led by Eugene Brown and Alexander two substitutes, his scuttle field goal and Morehouse was ahead. 11-9. With Morehouse "killing time." Brown intercepted, a pass, weaved his way down, by superb dribbling to within 15 feet of the basket and then sank the goal that enabled the next to tie the score. Someone looped one at the basket; Alexander flashed under the basket, dribbed to the sideline, and let loose the shot that tied up things at 15-15. Penelope Perlod Time was called. Play was resumed; Thorne took a ball literally out of Morehouse's basket; Ballet committed a technical foul by slamming the ball down, but under the strain Jones missed the free shot, and the gun fired. In the extra period Hampton missed several free shots that would have won, while Thorne with the throw and Trayler, with a field goal, gave Morehouse the winning points and the victory.

Condition Didn't Cause Break, Says "Scrappy" Sporting Editor of the Afro: In last week's issue of the AFRO some member of the Athenian Athletic Association gave the team the comment that the break between that organization and myself (Scrappy Brown). Now you can fool some of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time. Now the basketball fans of this city who have attended the games of the Athenians this season know that the lack of condition could not have been the cause, as I have played the best games of my career with that organization. So, whoever the person or persons who have the instrument should give the real reason for the break. You know the Athenians have played to good crowds this season and are doing good financially. There is another reason, my friend. Your's in sport, ELMORE (Scrappy) BROWN. H. S. BAILEY Pittsburgh.

Allen does not predict any such good fortune in Indianapolis, but he does think he will land in the money, the coveted one-two-three positions. His "Big Chance" "I have some mighty fine players among the youngsters to select from," said Allen, "and with the half a dozen or more seasoned league players who will come to me from various clubs of the league, we should be able to give the league fans something worth while in the way of a good health club. It'll long been my desire to lead a league club in the merry chase for a pennant and now that I have the opportunity I shall do my utmost to prove that I have all the qualities tending to make a winning club. Of course, I am aware that a great deal will depend on the players whom I will have under me. I will have a chance" to make good and the fans will find me always on the job doing my best."

Daily 1 A.M. to 2 P.M. Sundays Y. M. C. A. SECRETARY SEVERELY SCORED Lack Of Co-operation And Despotic Attitude Is Charged by Physical Director Under Secretaries Must Work On Sunday And Not Allowed To Hire Relief Charging lack of co-operation on the part of the secretary, S. S. Booker, the Drill Hill Branch of the Y. M. C. was severely criticized this week by the physical director, William A. Mason. Mr. Mason, who is the fourth or the political director of the local branch since the building was found, is one of the most popular directors ever employed by the police, and has succeeded in bringing the physical department to a high point of activity. the statement follows: The Lepidid Branch of the X- terrestrial operative spirit on the part of the one is made to feel, not that he is made to work the working staff, and not that he is made to answer who is taken in order to do the more mental tasks such as passing papers, gathering information, gathering data, gathering information, or running errands at the back and call each man is supposed to run his department on paper, but the master mind is the executive secretary of the department. Wouldn't Sanction Trip A concrete example. The physical director desired to attend a basketball game in Washington, where he was Arlington in order that he might note the style of play and compare the reticence which some claimed was not present in the interview. He interviewed the secretary and requested that he be permitted to go. At the time, the secretary was present, and the physical director promised to return by 1:30 p. m., he was told his colleague would work in his department to keep him busy, the secretary would give him sufficient time to attend the process and send him out to collect pledges. The physical director did not care or expect of experience in connection with the trip, but when he secured permission from the chairman of his committee to go the physical department and introduction and importance of his relationship to the executive secretary. Refused To Speak This is the only charge the secretary has placed against the physical director. He says he believes him capable of carrying out his duties. The secretary recruits for a under secretaries to work on Sunday, the same are willing to pay the price of hiring Czar Attitude In the staff conference where it is expected each man could express his frank opinions, the secretary "that the executive only may criticise the employees" is a conference is a meeting where the employees receive each week the minutes of the case discussion and the committee operation, a charge of misubordination is placed against the offender. This certainly kills all co-operation. Ordered Pool Closed The latest ultimatum now is that the physical director must unseal the swimming pool which the secretary ordered closed in last week, physical director due to the fact he said, it did not bring any further curses. At the time it was closed some 22" boys and members were using the pool. W. A. Harrison, general secretary, has ordered the closure without his consent or knowledge. Schedules are conferences arranged for changed without any occasion of the one or without discussion. The general attitude Won't Deal Fair But possibly the greatest obstacle is the unwillingness of the secretary to deal frankly and with those who dislike the challenge and minor excuses to trap his prey, meet you with that chuckle and smile when he is forlorn to, yet at our heart, time he be to specify a hearl to hear him it to the swimming pool was closed because of a departmental alarms at the time it was closed 221 members using it. The real fact is he saw an opportunity to have some money which he or may not have been justifiable, however the responsibility of closing the pool lies with the Physical Dept. Succeeds The physical department was entirely reorganized Sept. 17, 1974, among other men or women and no discipline where organized groups among either the men or women were organized among class which has grown so large that the physical committee is now meeting to bring plans for the possible division of the class into two groups to bring out with it, brown for the organization of a new class for men and black for boys making a total of six organized groups with an attendance in each of the 20th, 21st, and 22nd of秋. In the month the swimming pool was open, there The Harmony Five won a 16-15 tourist, from the quint from School 163 this week on the court of the Community House "gym."

BROWN AND WHEATLEY ON ATHENIANS "Curty" Brown and Tom Wheatley are without in doubt, full fledged members of the Athenians, and have severed all connections with the Scholastics. We took their word for it at first, to make more ample mention, stating that they were through with the Scholars, and had cast their lot with the Greeks. So evidently the Athenians were playing their own men in the Five Horsemen-Athenians game on February 23, when they sent Brown and Wheatley on the day, lineup of lineup the Scholars will use in the next day, returning to be seen. The loss of these two players, was a severe blow as Brown and Wheatley were their most valued players.

THE "OLD WOMAN'S" DISCIPLINE man who hourly being built up and that upon character depends conduct. "There was an old woman who lived in a shoe," She had so many children she didn't know what to do. She gave them some broth with— and was bread. And whipped them all soundly, and sent them to bed." Can you picture the poor distracted mother? She deserves sympathy no doubt, but did you ever stop and consider the children? I often wonder what they thought about it. Did they understand why they were put to bed? If you were to ask them why they were sent to bed they would quite likely say, "Mother couldn't stand the noise." Mother couldn't or wouldn't, which? Such is often the state of affairs in our present day home. Father comes home from work tired and nervous. Bobby and Jane are busily engaged in a game of circus. In due time (and a very short time at that) father demands angrily that the noise sense; he informs mother that the place is like a boiler factory factory, and the result is that two small children give up their game. Father is not always the one to be in blinds or behind a fence, he has a friend to call a mother of three small, healthy, growing children. I can see her hear him, and she can hear her book and the other on the children. When the noise reaches a certain point, down the book, up the children, and so on, the sulky little people are sent to bed. Children will generally obey because they understand that it is expected of them but they often do not. Children will stop "because Mother said they must stop, and, in the words of the children, they will "catch it" if they don't. The parent who deals with the children in this way is so concerned over the peace and comfort of the household for the time being that they take time to listen to one and actions upon the children.

Tourney Turned Down Are You Humping or Dumping? MENTON IS BLAMED The psychologists are talking now, hence we would like to have the class give strict attention because it is a very deep subject. White Y. M. C. A. Physical Director Passes Buck to Sun Editor The psychologists tell us that man has a dual mind—the conscious and the sub-conscious. You have heard that before? Oh, very well, then, we will pass it. Without pasting any labels on ourselves or even hanging on to the other fellow's coat tails, you and I know that we are constantly making mental records and packing them away somewhere, for future reference. The application of the Red Circles, 115 pound basketball team, was turned down by the A. C. and the A. A. C, and the team not allowed to compete in the Ace- ball beginning March 7. Every optimistic, hopeful, pleasant and courageous record you make, will be of wonderful and powerful assistance to you when the grey days come, every time in fact when you are inclined to have the "dumps." Every pessimistic, doleful, unpleasant and fearful record you make, your conscious mind will drag forth from its cubby hole to damn you every time an opportunity presents itself. Altho the Red Circles are members of the team, and the team are registered, the blame for debarring the race team was placed on Paul Menton of The During the past strenuous months you have observed some business men who stood the gaff unusually well and some who did not. One man was bumped just as hard as the other; one man smiled and went on, the other bowed his head and sagged; wherein lay the difference? Temperament you say; possibly, indeed probably, heredity. All right, we will grant you 25 per cent as the result of these causes, but the previous mental records made, must and do account for the balances, the 75 per cent. Menton on being asked by the sports editor of the APRO this week the cause of the application being filed against him, able to have colored and white teams playing together and referred the sports editor to a Mr. Merkle, of the physical education department, Mr. Merkle disclaimed all knowledge and said as the Evening Sun editor was chairman of the committee and asked the number of positions being rejected. We either make or mar our own lives and that is just as sure as that screen applies cramps. The Red Circles have been playing white teams for the last three years and have only lost one game this season. They were very good champions, but the second class team have won from all white teams they have met. THESE ARE THE WINNING NUMBERS The Circles are a "Y" team and had made the tournament which would include teams from the District of Columbia from North Carolina 3. 5, 8, 11, 13, 16, 28, 21, 23, 25, 28, 30, 33, 35, 37, 40, 43, 45, 48, 50, 53, 56, 58, 61, 63, 66, 68, 71, 73, 75, 77, 79, 81, 83, 86, 88, 91, 94, 97, 99, 102, 104, 107, 110, 113, 115, 117, 119, 121, 123.

GIERING Rube Says Most Clubs Lost Money Last Year BY RUBE ANDREW FOSTER President Negro National League Answering another question by this paper as to the past and the future national game. RUBE Daddy, Duddy of Negro organized baseball wired: "We have played the series, met the demons, met the national leagues meet in Chicago next month much hard work must be done. It is a tough job and I must have done it. That possessed by both leagues. Much has been said as to what should be done in baseball by those in the league or in other baseball or business. They are hardly responsible for their shortcomings yet a multitude joins them in the league and is good we have tried to accomplish. "The skepetic will criticise as long as there is a chance to pick a flaw. The chronic knocker, who likes to be more mature, will never break heart, but will forever have a pet peeve. But people who know—the general run of fans and live, red-blooded folks who like to see a good game, will never break heart, and more the mutual benefits according to the whole race from baseball. Our part in this program is to help us grow bigger and more worthwhile along with its continued success. We help so many hundreds of our boys in a material way that we ourselves must grow bigger and more worthwhile along with its continued success. "I am partial to baseball, have followed it since a child and have grown up. We have business. I have ridden freight trains, have been barred from certain homes on account of baseball and those who played it, have been barred from certain homes on account of baseball and ungentlemanly. I left school in the eighth grade to try to make a living at the game I loved so well. I will never heart-breaking time in it, but it will never stop, even during the war. "One thing has given me more pleasure than anything else—I have caused many persons to change their minds about the game. I have as many friends as I have the most influential men in all walks of life. They all know I am still fooling with baseball. It’s just as much to home to meet the ball player for a game as to civilize the civilian. I have paid men who could not read or write more money to play baseball than some college professors receive. I have seen men in baseball than men in any other endeavor, black or white.

Five Clubs in 1920 "In 1920, before the forming of the Negro National League, there were five salaried colored clubs in the United States: Hilldale, Lincoln, Cincinnati, Chicago and American Giants. The entire profession at that time drew less than $30,000. The National League brought four four-fouring clubs in the East Independent. I wrecked the peerless American Giants in order to equalize the playing strong in the league. B. C's Detroit, Louis, Cuban Stars, Dayton Marces, Kansas City and the Chicago Giants. In 1920 the gross income was $296,209. In 1921 they were $251,744.88. In 1923 $225,291.48. In 1923 $193,699.17. In those four years the players from all reports the East has done well. 10 Clubs lose money "The most important of this is that we do not have the men capable of handling such a situation. During the past season 10 of the 14 clubs lost money. All the clubs in the league have not made the necessary men who will place baseball on a basis, where economies are known to mean something. Railroads have doubled their fares. Salaries have been doubled in fact all expenses have advanced. Money Making Business "The attendance has been less and there has been no increase in the number of players who suffer by the failure of the weak. Rain this year has about brought the men to their senses. One man has not played any football yet. He would have to do it, it's too big a loss when you catch bad weather. Yet all of this was accomplished in the Wear and it was done in 27 days, not just the expense of operation. "Here is a real money-making proposition. Based on business capital, can you deliver a thing. Owners and players are not getting results from the present antiquated methods. Some of us who have been in the game long time still play. Others who tried to improve with an impractical system, have fallen by the wayside can own ball clubs and if successful if they will only hire brains." **ge To Men** **YOUNG MEN—THINK OF YOUR FUTURE** How about it, are you qualified to face it—are others doing more and getting more out of life than you are? Find out, if you don't know already, what is dragging you out of life. You can make the laws and succeed. I have helped thousands physically, mentally and emotionally. I have thousands of other men), can help you. Just be frank and tell me how you can regain and maintain your health. MIDDLE-AGED MEN constitute a large part of my practice. At this time of life a change takes place and men feel the need of an experienced doctor to take care of their critical period as well as to advise them as to what to do and what to avoid to regain health, stresses and a sound body once more. **BEAR IN MIND** That my office complex are fully equipped with the latest and most scientific apparatus and appliances for the treatment of chronic diseases. That I am ripe in years of experience in the job, I will not promise more than I can give and that each time you call me is a welcome and a valuable. That my fees for services are reasonable and that every sick and illing person will receive the services as though you paid my small fee in advance. There is no advice free and if you are out of work and money do not let that person receive my terms of payment in such a way that will enable the poor person to receive treatment. NERVES AND BLOOD ARE LIFE The lack of nerve force is found among men of all ages. This is true with men in all walks of life, from the day laborer to the mechanic or professional rphish Merchant and clergy are often sufferers—no man is exempt from the ailment who has rehearsal against nature's laws—so if you have the result of overwork, disploration, sedentary habits or worry, and your vital organs are disturbed, remember, delay in seeing the right doctor makes it more difficult to overcome the symptoms, and you might reach an incurable condition beyond relief if you delay too long.

M. C. A. Studies made in the office of the Bureau of Criminal Investigation show that of crimes committed among colored people, the larger percentage take place in the Northwestern section and focus in an area of Biddle street, the 500 block of Druld Hill avenue, the 500 block of Pennsylvania avenue and 500 block of Preston and Greenwillow streets. In the entire city of Baltimore 1963 males were arrested last year on serious charges. Of this number 941 were whites and 1022 were colored. According to these figures the population of the colored people furnished about 55 per cent of the serious crime. But our study shows that most of the colored crime is confined to numerous small areas, chief among which is the northwestern area named above. By crime area the survey means the area in which the criminal residence is in which the crime is committed. That crime follows literacy is also pointed out by this report; for the whole population is White. With 44.4, that for the whites is 6, while the colored litteracy rises to 14 per percent. The foreign born follows closely with 12 per cent. The age of criminals of both races was found to be about the same, 28 years. the Murders This Year Nine killings been recorded in the Northwestern district since January 1st of this year. this might be added one suicide following the attempt of a man to burden a woman.

Do you think black and white races will amalgamate? 2. Would amalgamation lead to destruction of our civilization? 3. Do you oppose it? These questions answered for the AFRO by twelve leading scientists and thinkers of the country—the brain of America. They are: HENRY FAIRFIELD OSBORN, Professor of Zoology, Columbia University; WILLIAM MACDOUGALL, Professor of Psychology, Harvard University; ROBERT BEAN, Professor of Psychology, University of Virginia; FAY-COOPER COLE, Ethologist, American Museum of Natural History. Their views will be given in a series of 14 articles, compiled by Thomas L. Dabney, especially for the AFRO-AMERICAN. You can't afford to miss a single article. Clip the whole series of 14 and have what America's best minds consider a solution of the race problem. ARTICLE V. Though Professor William MacDougall is particularly interested in purely psychological matters, the writer desired to get his opinion on the Truth. MacDougall is one of the leading psychologists of America and is in charge of the psychological laboratory of the University. His reply in part follows: "1. I hold that eventual complete amalgamation of the Negroes and the United States of America, if the matter is left to nature. "2. In my opinion, miscegation is the requirement as a dangerous experiment, which should afford to make. It is impossible to forecast what the white stock would suffer in quality through absorbing the Negro blood present in the population. "3. I am opposed to amalgamation for reasons appearing under answer two. I do consider that in spite of much that is amenable in the Negro the race is inferior to the white race; i.e. is less highly cultured, more child- "5. I believe in voluntary segregation of the colored people, encouraged by friendly co-operation by the white people, and trained to facilitate such voluntary segregation and friendly co-operation." Dr. Gilbert Jones Professor Jones joined the writer one of the longest and most palestaking replies of all that were received. He is one of the race's leading educators, having studied in German, French, and English. Prof. Jones is now a member of the faculty of Willowerforce University. Prof. Jones said: "I am sorry that the age-old question of whether an emigration law should receive new agitation. Willower though there is little harm to come Persistence, in Dancing With Man's Wife Ends in Tragedy Leslie Wilson, 424 A. N. Fremont avenue, is in the Colonial Hospital seriously injured and George Gross, 23. 635 N. Pace street, is being held charged with shooting him, following an altercation Thursday night in the Gallilean Fishermen's Hall, 411 W. Bldd street. Wilson was shot in the right chest and arm after an argument that started in the hall and continued in the street after the men had been ejected. Gross is alleged to have been shot in the street by his wife. When Wilson refused an altercation ensued during which several blows are alleged to have been passed. A call for police was sent at which time the men were ejected. Wilson reached the street first, Gross following closely, is said to have reached the street feet and Wilson fell to the ground Gross then run up. Biddle street, muting his escape before the arriver, moved to the Colonial Hospital, where he was reported in a serious condition. He was apprehended later and held to await the outcome of Wilson's wounds. from it, it may stir up some heated discussions; Nauseating Elements "Discussions of once Amalgamation in this country bring up so many disgusting and nauseating elements that I never like to take part in them. Have admitture is as undesirable on the part of the best colored people as it is on the part of the best whites. In this as in all other matters of human interest, legislation is to me a poor cure-all. "At times all self-respecting Negroes hate the measure that is up before U.S. Virginia legislature, because the legislation is one-sided and is based on the presumption that Negroes want to mix with whites, while whites do not want to mix with Negroes; a thing which is abductive nature." "Furthermore, it gives the Negro woman no method of defense in night for right living and the protection of her womanhood, such as every woman ought to have. It breaks down an the restraint of white men and outages Negro women, and their offspring born under such conditions have no opportunity in law to take on the names of those responsible for their living. If the white men would let me be women alone there would not be so much of a problem from their angle." May Be Delayed "Now, as to the question you ask: Human sentiment and artificial barriers may delay the inter-marriage and amalgamation of the races, but if you allow the whole gamut of living things, tell man anything, it preaches profoundly the fact, that racial amalgamation, through inter-marriage is the ultimate racial contact in the United States. "As a biological principle, I am not opposed to race amalgamation, for no where is there evidence that nature took any precautions to prevent it or that it was the result of it to as a matter of race pride."

BRAGG Great Body Of Negroes Believes In Race Integrity Says St. James Rector Undoubtedly inspired by the series of articles on "Ubucaching America," now running in the AFRO-AMERICAN. Dr. George F. Bragg, Jr., vector of St. James P. E. Church, declared this week the question is academic. Dr. Bragg's remarks printed in the Church Advocate, St. James Church, Cincinnati, "There is a group of Educated Negroes, who, in their writings, and other deliverances, seem to create upon the public mind a feeling that their objective of our race is antagression." "We have but little inclination to treat the matter from an academic point of view. Rather we would have to try to truly and consider the subject from the immediate and practical side. "Our primary concern is that you find a way whereby both you harmoniously work together, with genuine good feeling for each other. If the whites are disposed, as much as possible, to yield those things which will render us comfortable and happy, we should be accustomed to be accustomed to the same spirit. "The great body of Negro people are not at all concerned about mixed schools, and 'mixed' marriages, the academic discussion of such matters, but in any community, both races have so advanced towards each other, in genuine fellowship, that they both demand 'mixed' schools, then by all means they should have their demands. "We have no complaint to make with the dual system as long as both are essentially just and adequate. No race of people believe more sincerely in racial integrity than the white race. In the public opinion so that there will be more real communion, and in course, between the two groups, is not horn of a desire upon the part of the black man to pass for white, to remain as a distinct group. "What he seeks from the white man is not his color but his culture. The thing of value in the white man is not his compulsion, but a supernatural, moral and general knowledge, which if communicated to the black man enriches both, black and white. Every colored man whose life has largely been in the white race, knows that he has gotten more of practical value from such associations than he ever received from hooks. And, yet, for all this, it has not for no reason preferred a 'white wife' in the place of his faithful and greatly beloved partner of his own group. If we hold in mind the historical background of the two races in this country, we prefered at the points of sensitivity of our white brother, we shall certainly aim to cultivate a close friendship with him by a becoming respect, sensitive feeling, and his fears, however groundless such fears may be. "If, in the end, 'unimagination' is according to the Divine will we do not defeat, or antagonize, such will by our stern insistence on Racial Injustice. It may prove a longer, but unquestionably safer and surer course." BAR ASSOCIATION ELECTS OFFICERS Attorney Roy S. Bond Heads Organization During 1925 Attorney Roy S.

URBAN LEAGUE TO STUDY 'LUNG BLOCK' Survey Will Preced Efort to Clean Up New School District The Baltimore Urban League is making a detailed study of the so-called lung block, bounded by Presidio Avenue and Bremerton Hill avenues, which is generally admitted to be one of the most congested and unhealthy spots in the city. The name of the lung block" has been applied because of the prevalence of tuberculosis among its inhabitants, according to the 1920 census this one block, only fifteen thousandths of a square mile in area, was the home of 1441 people. Its two hundredths of a square mile is not to be wondered at that the tuberculosis rate is high in the light of these figures. In the decision that the city improvement Commission is planning to erect the new elementary school, hoping thereby to clean out some of the worst conditions. It is an odd fact that Preston street, a broad street, seems to connect us soon as it crosses Dudl Hill an alley. Similarly with Greenwallow street, which enters this block from the Pennsylvania avenue side and crosses the block, has sidewalks that narrow less than three feet at many points as the congestion of houses has pushed the building line further and further. The house to house caravans and study will be made by students from the sociology classes of Dr. Thomas Brown of Morgan College, who is asked to make this study a through one. Miss Elsie Mountain and Mr. Moss will supervise the collection of this data. Statistic information on the health on crime, and on health is now being compiled, tabulated and charted.

That the healthiest ward in the city in which an infant may be born is the Fourth and the highest in the city is shown by statistics in the Baltimore Health Department. In the first ward in 1924, there was a infant death rate of 500 per 1000 persons or one out of every two babies born there, while in the second ward the rate was 18 per 1000. There was, however, a population of only 157 in the first ward while there are 366 colored people in the Fourth. The rate of every two dying in this ward may be regarded the black spot in The 14th and 17th. In the 14th and 17th wards, the infant mortality rate was 12.5 respectively. The colored population in the 14th ward is 14.524, while that in the 17th is 17.065, the highest in the city. The highest death rate among colored people in the 14th ward, probability due to the fact that it is in the Canton industrial section, where housing is exceedingly bad and the colored population consists mainly The lowest is in the 27th ward where a population of 1763 colored people was 1600 recorded in 1924. Ward that had a death rate under 20 per thousand were the 8th, 12th, 14th, 16th, 18th, 20th, 22nd, 24th, 26th. Those with death rates over 30 per thousand, were the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 15th, 24th, and 26th. Tuberculosis Analyzed The highest death rate from tuberculosis was in the first ward where the rate was 638.9 per 10,000 colored population. The lowest death rate was in the 27th ward where the rate was 170.2. In the 11th, 14th, 15th, 16th, and 18th ward, the population is largest, the average rate was 21.3, which is slightly below the general average for the city. In this section which includes the 11th, 14th, 15th, and 18th ward, the rate was in the 14th ward where the rate was 16.9. The 14th ward is located on Avenue and Lafayette. forms a triangle wherein exists the best colored housing in the city.

Both schools are women who are as upstanding and self-schools of America. Items charitable to assume that the singers are so anxious in the campaign dollars out of the pockets of white New York are willing to compromise on the question did they think what impression their million millions of listeners in. They could that Good Housekeeping Magazine would be a justification for sending out "Dear that thousands of other Negro listeners affiliated by the simpler brethren from the million, a lot of money, a useful endow thing but a mess of pottage.

Boston Equal Rights League which honors Crispus Attucks on March 5th by placing grave, and holding services at this common, recalls that on that date Attucks first to fall in the American Revolutionary attacks, armed only with a club, led a troopers against a troop of British soldiers in attacking and insulting pass-by. When and three others fell, Attucks first. On these words: that moment we may date the severance of the JAN that night the foundation of American Independent Adams.

Colored representatives on city, county and State Board of Education. 3. Equal salaries for equal work for school teachers without regard to color or sex. 4. Colored members on board of State institutions where inmates are closed. In the face of the constant efforts of thinking colored people to teach white people not to refer to them as "darkies," it is something of a shock to listen to the quartets from Hampton and Tuskegee Institutes broadcasting over the radio songs of the South in which the word "Darkey" occurs. It is pretty hard to believe that these quartets, made up of professional singers, ancient alumni of the two schools, represent the thought or the attitude of the great student body of Hampton and Tuskegee, the splendid faculty, or the rank and file of the alumni. Both schools are turning out men and women who are as upstanding and self-respecting as any schools of America. It seems charitable to assume that the singers were thotless, that they are so anxious in the campaign to sing five million dollars out of the pockets of white New Yorkers, that they were willing to compromise on the question of self respect. Little did they think what impression their thotlessness made upon millions of listeners in. They could not have foreseen that Good Housekeeping Magazine would use their example as a justification for sending out "Darkey Valentines," or that thousands of other Negro listeners in would feel humiliated by the simpler brethren from the South. Five million, a lot of money, a useful endowment, after all is nothing but a mess of pottage. We believe the soul of Hampton and Tuskegee is worth more. Crispus Attucks—Colonel Young This is not a white man's country. A statement such as this is made not for the benefit of readers of the AFROAMERICAN, who know it full well, but for the enlightenment of the Ku Klux, the jim crowers, the makers of grandfather clauses, and other misguided hundred percenters. The month of March brings anniversaries of two black Americans, who offered their lives on their country's altar dedicating it for all time to Americans in black as well as in white. The Boston Equal Rights League which honors the memory of Crispus Attucks on March 5th by placing wreaths upon his grave, and holding services at this monument on Boston Common, recalls that on that date Attucks, the black, was the first to fall in the American Revolutionary War. Attucks, armed only with a club, led a troop of some 30 white sailors against a troop of British soldiers in Boston who were attacking and insulting pass-by. When the troop fired, he and three others fell, Attucks first. On the monument are these words: From that moment we may date the severance of the British Empire—Daniel Webster. On August the foundation of American Independence was laid—John Adams. March 12th is the birthday of the late Colonel Charles Young, highest ranking commissioned officer the race ever had; West Point graduate, veteran of the wars in Cuba, the Philippines, and Mexico; a military attache and adviser in Liberia and Haiti; refused overseas work in the World War on the ground of physical disability because he might have to be promoted to the rank of brigadier-general. The Retiring Board said Young was unfit for active service, but he showed them. He jumped on his horse and rode from Xenia, Ohio, to the State War and Navy Building in Washington, a thousand miles, to salute his chiefs, as dapper and fit as any officer who ever trod the marble floors of that big federal building.

Hokum—Buncombe And Applesauce What is the master of the work? As fine and fair a group of people in all the world in their actions toward themselves become ugly and crooked when they come to deal with black men. Take the case of Whitaker Ray, forty years in the employ of the Hines Brothers Lumber Company (white) of Kinsten, N. C. At his funeral, his employer referred to him as the most valuable man in the company's employ, one who knew every bolt and nut in the mill, and who cannot be replaced. Yet this man held only the ranks of a sawyer's assistant and received but laborer's pay. Imagine it, most valuable man in the plant on laborer's pay. Take the case of the Central Y. W. C. A., which has kept the colored branch closed for over a year, or the Central Y. M. C. A., which is responsible in part for the exclusion of Negro basketball teams from the South Atlantic A. A. U. Championships. What of the talk of Jesus and Christianity and brotherhood? Isn't it the same kind of "hokum" and "buncombe" the politician spouts before election, and the comedian airily refers to "applesauce"?

We were not afraid to accept the moderate drinker before prohibition, but we are loath to accept him now." This is putting outlaw liquor in a class with deadly disease germs. It means that business is bearing down on the bootleger and his customers as it did on the intemperate drinker before prohibition, and that national prohibition is one step nearer a fact.

P. R. S. President Albert, of Germany, died last week. Ebert was the first president of the German Republic. He was a socialist, and in this country would be on par with Morris Hiltquit or Eugene Debts.

Her richest industrial section under the capital was the most collossal war debt ever imposed since the beginning of the world. Wm. N. Jonus rose to commanding positions in State governments.

But with the passing of this mushroom growth of power there is reining a more powerful force, coming in the North and East, where substantial citizenship forms the foundation structure. The process of regaining the lost ground may be slow, but this time we will Once an humble saddlemaker, Ebert took over the reign of Government once and again. It was Ebert's influence with French socialists and liberals in other sections of the world that probably saved Germany from the death blow aimed at her. Ebert also called socialists in Germany and France, Bolsheviks in Russia, laborers in England and radicals in this country are among the significant revolutionary rise of the human race. There can be no doubt but that the manner in which the newly acquired citizenship of the freed *aves* in the South, following emancipation, was handed to his friends, was a failure. Like lamb in the presence of snarling, snapping wolves, this political prestige was soon devoured in an orgy of shungun domination, ballot box stuffing, and clean air across White Plate. Protests Against "White Cargo" A club of white women have judged a protest against "White Cargo," a play running at a local theatre, where the actress is a brown skin lady of the evening, whose feminine wiles makes a love slave of the sclon of an English family sent to Africa to the affairs of a commercial concern. In the new political order, the right of the Negro to vote must form the basis of the North or South. Of him must be expected the same high standards of conduct as the be neither shoved by maddlen sentimental consideration, pushed beyond his capacity or otherwise conceived.

Not long ago we had a change. The change was a complete right face, and we would make note of it. We embarked the first at 2 p.m., the Foster Club entertained at the Pythian Castle at cards. If I am not mistaken, there were 100 women present who engaged in Progressive It. it seems the Foster Whist Club ignored all precedents of the last year or two. The Foster Whist Club cards, the tables and other necessary adjuncts for such an occasion but even went so far as to let the invited guest get a strangle hold The club put on its right salad and rolls, and when this had been clearer away, they gave it a few models for George Washington and Martha Washington. There were some present who wanted to know why they didn't have a salad, but were politely informed Booker T.'s birthday was not that day or even the next day. As a matter of fact, the club had not even informed or not Booker T. ever knew himself on what day his birthday fell. However, the indies were served, and the club had much to their surprise some of them could hardly cat. But on this February the 21st, the Foster Club was making many changes.

The Foster Whist Club was so named in honor of many foster artists, and the club made the largest splurge since Charley Shipley pulled off his bale de l'atypne at Pythian Castle, just after the war. As far as is known, no marker was found, and the prizes all won on the level. The Urban League I have understood for sometime that the Urban League was setting up in Baltimore. The Urban League is putting people in jobs, that is, it is said to have conditions and then trying to improve them. Their specialty is putting people in jobs, that is, it is said to have special conditions and then window with the same regularity that the collection is passed in church. Up to the present, however, some funds have been collected and the resident plenopotention has been employed have work wished on them. As a matter of fact, conditions seem to be getting worse. To howling around this "neck of the woods" it won't be long before he will try the Urban League itself. In essence here it should at least establish an office so that the contributors can see something for their money. Not know where to go to contribute to the N. A. A. C. or the Urban League. Roughly estimating, it both contributions are losing around $400 a month, nobody knows they are in town. Fashion Show This is just an advance notice, details will follow later. There is to be a dress code under the muscles of the Health Week Committee there will be held a Fashion Show. Up to date it is whispered around the Health Week Committee, but you can sand bag something before the date arrives. If they get their right victim, the show will go on, if they have an unfashionable Health Week. The Horusen Corporation, better known as the Regent Theatre, will at some early date, stage a beauty contest. The successful candidate will be given a dress code, the young lady getting the most votes will automatically become the most beautiful. There will be no dress code, the young lady will be allowed a great deal of hustle in hustling votes. It is said the winners will take down 50 bucks in raw cash and a couple of her boots to her hat. Quite a drawing card just at this time, I assure you, but the question is, can you wear a dress code to Brown's Mule could win the contest as easily as Venus Dilo if the muscle votes as hard as she can kick.

Kelly Miller Says Kelly Miller Says The Negro student in pursuit of modern literature and art must carry with him constantly an interpreting key, which will quickly enable him to separate the flesh from the spirit. The Ku Klux Klan is but the logical philosophy of those who glorify in the flesh and bow down and worship at the shrine of color. Science and pure thought transcend these externalities and appeal to the universal human mind and understanding. There is urgent need of a new philosophy of Negro education. Science, pure knowledge and spiritual longings of the soul are not revealed by flesh and blood. The Guggenheim The fortune makers of the country are now to a remarkable degree devoting their fortunes to educational purposes, and to those whose suddenly acquire great wealth are more apt to foster social advancement than those who inherit large fortune. We have witnessed the muncilienal philanthropies of Hershey who contributed six million dollars for the education of children in Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania, the forty million Dukes Foundation for educational and social work in North America, the forty million American institutions of Mr. Easman of Kokau fame. Now comes the Guggenheim Foundation of three million dollars to elevate the oppose to American education American youth. Of these four recent philanthropists, only one, Mr. Hersley, limits his benefaction. All others are disposed to apply their philanthropy to the points of greatest need and greatest service without regard to racial or credit limitations. Philanthrophy The rapid rise of the swollen fortunes of Americans is made bearable by virtue of the liberal use to which they have been accustomed, and Mr. Carnegie, the wealthiest men of their day and time, are noted for the greatest donations to public uses of any two individuals in the history. Here again we have the example of those who have earned their fortune as contrasted with those who have and them handed down to them. We have seen that they hardly help anadvertising to the unique case of Henry Ford, who violates all of the rules which guide the ordinary man and surpasses them all. The fact that he has some where announced that he has no intention of giving his goods to the poor as a mere philanthropy, but rather intends to benefit the man who has the deep necessary article and by giving it as wide opportunity for work and it as high rate of wages as possible. Na Race Distinction In following out this purpose Mr. Ford makes little or no race distinction. In all of his plants and plants he allows for the proper proportion of equal chance given to the rest. But in spite of Mr. Ford's philosophy, his fortune accumulates faster than he can dispose of it. He gives his primacy in the industrial world, nor thinks of retraining him with the leveling hand of the law. And yet we cannot help wondering what he will ultimately do, given that he himself, accumulates faster than he can dispose of it. Will he be able to absorb all in enlargement of his works? Will he be able to work for ridance from the mere bother of it? Should he ever reach this conclusion, we may reasonably expect that he will devote it to some useful purpose and be able to best advantage without the narrow restrictions of race and color. Gives Three Million But to return to the Guggenheim Foundation, John Simon Guggenheim, Ex-Senator from Colorado, is a memorial of untold fortune out of the mineral resources of the Western States, Mexico and Alaska. The gift of three million dollars is for the purpose of broadening the horizon of American fellowship and research by enabling worthy students of approved genius to work in the different countries which offer the most inviting field in the line of their specialty. It is especially provided in the terms of a gift that the fellowships will be open to men and women, married or unmarried, of every race, color and creed. This is indeed a worthy rebuke of the institution which is abroad in the land today. World Views Needed Sometimes ago I ventured the suggestion that the time was ripe for the establishment of foreign borders needed of talent and promise might be enabled to persecute their study and research in the various countries and nations. The point of view, the Negro is the only suppressed group in the world that is not looking about the world for suggestions and advice. We need to be fitted with ingrowing pains. We think that our domestic difficulties must be solved domestically without reference to what is taking place in the world. We need especially to come in closer touch and sympathetic understanding with the non-white peoples of the world. The Guggenheim Foundation may be wisely utilized to this end. South America And Africa Negro students of race contact and relationship who show ability to study and interpret the situation in such cases may be encouraged to courage may thus be enabled to pursue their work in South America, Asia and Africa, and to proclaim the importance of the world in the solution of the world's greatest problem. I suggested that our colleges might be equipped with a department of foreign fellowships. But it now appears that existing foundations might well be utilized in this direction full of strong enough to undertake the task in a systematic way. Negro On The Screen There is, undoubtedly, a conspiracy on part of the movie world to paint the Negro as a coward. In every situation/of danger and peril, the black man is portrayed as every white shadow of him. Will the white man stands coolly by or runs to the rescue with bravery and calm. On a dozen occasions, I have witnessed such craven exhibitions on the campus of the Negro spectators always extract great mirth from such exhibitions. I popular Negro mind, at times and places, especially at the movies, seems shallow beyond comprehension. The laugh is always loudest when the movie is being shown up in your seville or despicable role. The mere appearance of a non white face is a signal of high illiteracy and light seemingly in the damnation of its own type. I doubt whether any other person in the world would allow a movie to be filmed without or ridule and jost without firm and emphatic protest. But the poor Negro joins in and leads the crowd at the location and chagrin of his own kind. Jews Protest The Jews will never forgive Shakespeare for the caricature of his race in Shloky. A strong protest was made against the fame by the Hebrew peoples because he used the term "jew" as a verb indicating the practice of that race in quickly shifting from one price to another, to ensure the gulless generality of this term, by the way, does not appear in the later editions. I once heard Mr. D. W. Grifol, of "The Birth of a Nation" fame, say that he must have been a long-awaited villain a Jew, an Irishman or an Italian, and was therefore compelled to fall back on the Negro. Now if the race is in a defenseless position, he must surely, surely, by it should not voluntarily join in to his traduces villify and traduce it. Art is very subtle in its imitations, and interests into our gentle music and our self respect, are we are aware. Negro No Coward In practice, the Negro usually proves to be the hero; but on the stage he is made the owner of one of my readers can readily recall individual instances where the Negro gained great distinction for feats of bravery and daring by white men who witnessed and rewarded his acts. These dispatches of the week that a Negro elevator boy in New York, by sticking to his car through fire and smoke was mistakenly put into danger. How does this story taken from life compare with the portrayal of the black man ever prone to run and hide from danger. Negro in bitter is widely acknowledged and extolled. And yet if one notices the great painting of Perry crossing lake at the battle of Lake Erie, the sole Negro in the represented as trembling in every pore. Maintain Self Respect The non white peoples must be bee on the diest, less their self-respect by through the beginnings of Aryan art, as perhaps the oldest thieker who I yet treated the Negro problem. My work on the youth should center about ancient rather than modern literature for the reason that in modern culture the youth should be made manifest in every feature. This is not true in the great literature, but in the splits sublimely over the flesh. Shakespeare, for example, is of the flesh fleshy. Even in Gothic, in constantly reminded of his clitoris, Colorism. The Negro student in pursuit of modern literature and art must carry with him constantly an interpreting key, which will quickly enable him to understand the world. Ku Klux Klan is but the logical philosophy of those who glorify the flesh and bow down and worship at the shrine of color. Science and pain are the tools that tie mania and appeal to the universal human mind and understanding. There is urgent need of a new philosophy of Negro education. Science, pure knowledge, and spiritual longings are not revealed by flesh and blood. HOOSIT? 4. He was born in the British West Indies in 1876.

Company Dinner Story Every family has an amazing story to tell of how things went wrong at a company dinner. Won't you contribute yours for this little column? Address Guest Editor, The AFRO-AMERICAN. Sunday, after Church, I invited two dear old people, friends of my parents, of dinner. Saturday night I had gone to the hen house and by lantern-light selected what I took to be a nice young rooster, a good-fry. I did not prepare the fowl until after the company came. Hurriedly I cleaned it, but not until I had it ready to cook did I surmise it was not what it seemed. When it began to fry it did not get tender. I turned on more heat, and tried it harder and harder. Time was passing and I knew I must get dinner on the same day. I was a long as I dared. All joy in my dinner had gone. We manoeuvred to eat a portion of it. I explained and made apologies. But to this day to me— Of all sad words of tongue or pen, The saddest are those—I fried a hen. Mrs. L. F.

Rocky Mount, N. C. S-By Aunt Dilsey HOME EDUCATION "The Child's First School is the Family."—Forebal. IN PRIVATE Eight of them sat at the table and each had a fling at Dickle—grandparents and parents, sister and brother—and their missiles, though only of words, were sharp and precise, Dickle grew, and every minute. He seemed a tough like proposition, it is sure. He had pitched greedily to the feeding process as soon as he had noisy and rudely taken possession Grand father and grandmother looked frowningly at him. Their projectiles began with the three hands” big sister demanded those hands” big sister touched, but Dick seems to thrive on them. “I’d be afraid to eat the bread they touched, but Dick seems to thrive on them.” Big brother’s ammunition required a big gun. He raised his voice for the mention of some “perfectly fine” things like clay, and Dickle’s short comings, which were generally very short indeed, were resurrected and hummed at one after another. He looked as fierce as a South Sea islander as he said, “I’ll tend to you later.” Mother wound up by saying, “I’ll be doing something in the world with him” her voice a despairing plaint. There was no such ugly trouble in the family near Dickle’s age and proclivities. For fault in the presence of the family, a quiet “go over to your room, Tommy,” from his mother was suffused. It was true that one might have though Thomas had been shot by the blacksmith judging by his posture, but no obeyed. One cannot expect ill temper to be wiped out magically, only that it be treated sensibly and considerably, reconsidering Dickle’s future regulating word and action. Dickle’s mother visiting Tommy’s mother on one of the days he even flow of cheerful conversation that continued uninterrupted by Tommy’s defection. It was so different from the general squalid behavior that followed misbehavior by Dickle. When Tommy’s mother reappeared, and her son had dished out of doors to his plan, the less successful mother "Please tell me how you set things so easily. I can't do anything with Dickie. I believe he takes a pride in his success. He will rule a rule never to correct Tommy in the presence of others." her friend answered quietly. "Notice that tree, the white shirt to a fine, straight little beauty. "A few months after it was planted it began to lean. I set the gardener to work. He drove strong stakes. He shoved them to a lake as if a plummet had been lung as a guide from the cloud above it, and to it he fastened the young, growing thing. Not with days—as infidel as intermittent discipline—nor did he pull it violently into place allowing others to join in rough play. He was not strong neither, harsh nor confining, leaving it room to grow true to the guide, upright. My dear, a mother may be the strength of the straight, bound and protected by hands that will not break—truth, affection, respect. The child respects the mother who shows respect for him. Or the child recognizes his one, rightful right—correction in private." Tested Beauty Hints PIMPLES I how many people, who and their skin pimple or not, and if they just want to pimple or if they are just content to pimble faith to external treatment alone? I strongly approve of pinning faith to external treatments of good acne creams or lotions but mix a little faith with patience and use the two with a diet of bulky vegetables, dark bread and cheese to the contrary, beauty is much more than skin deep. The sooner we realize it and begin to build from the outside, the sooner we may appear with heart's desire—a perseverance.

An unnaturally blasted gust of wind snatched my idolized Mexican hat from my head. I made a frantic grab for it, nuzzled it. Just then my stering wheel began to shimmy, a cactus stepped deliberately in the way, the graveled highway rose through the wind shield. I lost my head and senses at the same moment, opening my eyes to observe a pretty haired girl bending over my face. Her lap was a pillow for my swollen aching head, which was in contact with some sheer silky material and two knees protruded gracefully on either side of my slowly opening eyes. If this were a chronicle of bathing beauties sea nymphs and combing breakers, I suppose I should have to follow the prevailing mode and say that the knees were dimpled, but as the scene of my story is laid in a beautiful and beautiful country, reclaimed from a cactus desert, I thousand miles from the old Pacific, I will merely say that they were feminine knees of an age that did not greatly exceed twenty-two years. They may have possessed the cutest little dimples in the world, but of course I do not know. After staring vaguely up at the aforesaid head for a moment, I permitted my eyes a downward glance till they reached a horizontal vision, which brought to my aching brain, a realization that many, MANY ANY petals to put in, in a condition where it would perform as in the days gone by. The radiator was crumpled. The windshield was in a thousand bits. Water and oil were flowing from some where, as blood flows from a chicken with its head wrung from its neck. The right fender had passed from all further usefulness. The engine had passed peacefully away. The left front tire would never be the same again. The steering gear and certain other vital parts under the hood, would depend that a pair of gauges done onto them, before my dear old roadster, would be able again to burn gasoline, on the roads among the Yuma cotton fields. I gazed regretfully upon the scene of wreckage. I let my eyes continue their downward course and soon they held two neat suicide shoes, three, where pooled out from beneath the knees already referred to. By this time, I had somewhat recovered the use of my faculties, and taking it for granted that the body possessed all the normal parts of a head scale. I struggled to get posture and then scrambled to my feet. "Who are you?" I demanded on the beautiful one. "Sue Smith," chimed the sweetest and most musical voice I ever heard. "Where am I?" was my anger and now interested question. "At San Luis, just over the Mexican border," came the reply. "At San Louis, Senora." I eagerly asked. "Who came the reply like a soft sweet echo from some far away mountain. "Why that is the land of my parents nativity," was my declaration. "Is it she chispered." "I will tell me what happened." I implored. "See!" she pointed her finger an the ruins of my car.

I lited your head to my lay and found the spark of life he had not died. When I passed by hand over your fore- head, you soon came to," were the words that tingled into my ears. "Your hands must be full of electricity, for before I tried to get on my feet, I felt sick of electricity so through me," I declared, "so electricity." It was just magnetism," she whispered again, and held her hand toward me. Immediately I felt sick and crumpled to the ground and all consciousness fled. How long I was in that condition, I do not know. I know I was dreaming about dimples, when again she was gently messaging my head. How good and soothing it felt. "Who are you any way?" I demanded. "Sue Smith," was the soft magnetic reply. "Where do you live and where were you born?" I next demanded. "I live with my parents near the club house, Liax, in Sonora," cadd the soft, frank and rusting reply. "What is your name?" she whispered. "Juan Mellerayza. I was born and live near Yuma. I am an American citizen through and through." I proudly proclaimed. "I am Mexican through and through." she smiled and lisped the words in such an actful, entrancing way that took all thought of future bragging-badge out of me. I remained silent for some moment when I ventured on another question. "What can I do with my big readable?" "Seil it for junk, it's a goner anyway," was her advice.

In my dull aching brain I had a senseless, hide curly in my knees her knees did really possess the pretty dimples here-to-fore slid to in know. I kept up the manipulation of her magnetic hand over my forehead, and I again experienced another electric vibration that seemed to penetrate every inch in it with it. I saw myself.

STEWARDS ARE REINSTATED; PEACE REIGNS AT BETHEL Saturday, March 7 STEWA REGULAR STEWARDS WIN FIGHT AT BETHEL Efforts To Oust Them Failed Friday Night. All Peace And Harmony PETITION IS UNSIGNED Church May Not Ask For Return Of Pastor For Sixth Year Regular stewards of Bethel A. M. E. Church won the right to hold their positions at an official meeting at the church Friday night. As explained in a late edition of the AFRICAN AMERICAN last week, effort was made to must about five of them from the board and instead give them positions on the Junior Steward's Board and on the retired list. Messrs. W. H. Dodd, M. Jones, Thaddeus Copeland and Levi Moore were among the stewards said to be Church Law These about to be ousted raised strenuous objections, however, declaring they were elected last September at the second quarterly conference, were amended, and unanimously approved for a year without fear of removal by the pastor. Daniel Lee and M. Dorsey, said to be class leaders, were among the A schedule for the positions of the regular 12 awards. When the ouster measure was to go through, the steward appealed to the Rev. C. H. Stephens, presiding elder of the district, declaring if they were ousted by the pastor, the Rev. Feederick Douglas, it would be a violation of the constitution to be sent to the bishop and it necessary to the annual conference. The Rev. Mr. Stephens was in the church Friday night but did not attend the session in the other room. It is believed he advised the pastor to send stewards was a violation of the law. Failure to endorse a petition asking the return of the pastor for the sixth year is said to have caused some concern. Peace and Harmony At the meeting Friday night, the Rev. D. Douglas is said to have stated that he had talked with the bishop and had come to the conclusion that it would be a mistake to remove the stewardies, who would, therefore, hold their old positions. Peace and harmony then reigned. Joseph N. Nassau succeeded R. Bishop W. Sasanqua Brooks as pastor of Rutherford Church five years ago. His term is out next annual conference and he will be sent elsewhere.

MAdison 0069 By ROBGER DIDIER (For The A. N. P.) If we had to live the life of a powder puff, we should feel that all the known methods of suicide are inadequate. If we were told that some day we were going to die, we should believe the information would be deadly. For certain death we should prefer that news to either dim-dim bullets or potassium cyanide. The only good powder puff is the one that we only one thing to be said for it — it gives more than it receives. But what it receives it keeps, and there's where the rob comes. A powder puff as we have seen there is a "ragged" dirty circular pad used by girls and women to take the shine off their nose. Of course, that is it's right to be such a bad job. Shakespeare might have written on a woman's nose was sweet, but if he did, he was ignorant either of the science of women or of women's nose is about as sweet as the end of a piece of missionary washing soap. The work of a powder puff is to give the nose of women responsibility. The old folks said that sweat on the nose meant meanness. By that token, most of the followers call them. They have to keep powder puffs to hide their meanness, and duffy, prepared for a whole come out of the store all bright the purps. It's their dirt. But right to the dirt they rub into Man Drops Dead Issa Vurgison, 1019 Myrtle ave. avenue, dropped dead in his home at the above address Saturday, Vurgison, who was 65 years of age, was killed shortly after his death.

The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly MARRIED 26 YEARS: NOW SEEKS DIVORCE MARRIED 26 YEARS: NOW SEEKS DIVORCE Mrs. Mary Crippin Asks Absolute Divorce on Desertion Plea Mrs. Mary Crippin, who declared that she was married in 1899, began proceedings for an absolute divorce from her husband, John Crippin, 1510 Maryland avenue, in Part 1 of the Circuit Court. Mrs. Crippin declares that she married her husband on September they lived until August 16, 1913, at 12, 1899 in Baltimore city, where which time she allied she was abandoned and deserted without just cause. She asks the court to grant her an absolute divorce. There were no children as an issue of their marriage.

Both husbands charge their wives with desertion. Attorney Roy S. Bond is solicitor for the plain MORE FUDGE MORE FUDGE (Continued from Page 11) New Social Constellation Social activity in Baltimore is getting down to the "shells." It is becoming more a game of blind man's buff. If you are caught you are it, and so on. Some few weeks ago a club of ladies known as the "Nobody But Us" the "All of Us" the Girl Who is too nice for your something of the sort, broke loose at a formal dance and reception at the Pythian Castle. It would be just as easy for me to give you an explanation of the club's name as it would be for me to give you a list of those present or accounted for. would much rather hand you the girl you know if they can't find a suitable name there is no chance of them finding anything else good enough for a man to go down to Swerdloff and lay down his "iron." Of course, if he is disappointed he can walk the girl home, that is, if he is a mean man and tell that old girl about having a fine time, just for politeness sake. The Pastimers This is just to let you know that another "dud" is about to be loaded into the cannon sometime after Easter. A "dud" does not explode, but it lands somewhere just like a regular shell. The name or the muser of the infantile paralysis case will be the "Fatsham" and it was founded with the avowed intention of two timing an organization formerly known as the F. O. E. S. F. O. E. S. stands for Federal Office Employees Social. This social was recruited from the mail bags and for a time ran with only about 29 knots in the motor, and it was disruption. It appears many of the more important members had the "guts" to squawk on some of the guest invited by their inferiors. In time when the underlings had saved up $25 or more they began to grow cheesy and had the importimence to the Post Office would not stand for this, so the F. O. E. S. went out of the social business rather than go to jail in a body. Women Want Action It must be remembered, however, that nothing beats a "beefing" wife but two "beefing" wives. These women now want action. Like German women, they demand a place in the sun. Therefore, some of them have "beefed" loud and long, until some of the Post Office Employees have come up with this "Pastimers" Club as a peace maker. The "Pastimers" is not made up alone of the boys in blue-gray. No, a new system has been inaugurated. The pastimers come from the Falls Station in on the deal, outside material has been brought in. The idea seems to be that no man who fights those pouches at the Falls Station for eight hours wants to go anywhere but to bed when he is off. If they want to be in the sun, they not want them and are not going to have them. I understand that is final. Station B. V. D. Speculation is rife as to exactly just how much of a mess the "Pastimers" are going to make of a perfectly good evening. The betting is pretty good. "Don't wont pass anything more than time." Jiminie Williams, formerly a member of the F. O. E. S., or to put it different, a member of the former F. O. E. S., gave the radio fans a treat two weeks ago. Mr. Williams sang or through WGBA, better "Morning." He sang, "Morning." "Songtime." He sang, "Alone." "I Can't Get The One I Want," and "Follow The Swallow." He received quite an evation. The widely distributed audience was so impressed with the last number, "The Swallow," that Jimmy will shorthold perform again. The next time he will operate through E. V. D.

SEMINARY LOSES TO MORGAN QUINTET Coach Law's Bears, Down "Whirlwind" Johnson's Dragons By 40-42 Count CELERTAS WIN Celertas Beat Morgan Girls In Preliminary Bout In 39-9 Contest The Morgan College quintet of Bears took the measure of the Virginia Seminary Dragons Tuesday night on the court of the New Albert by a 40 to 22 score. What started out to look like a variety of the nip and tuck affair in the first session turned into a walk away before the half was over and in the final period it developed into a complete rite of the Dragon with the revengeful Bear in full pursuit. To show their contempt for the Dragon, the Bears sent in a second team in the last half with their muscel, Master Briscoe, in the first Hill started off looping the two double deckers. Young drew a personal, Perry making one of the free throws followed by a ciger by Hoyle which made the count 4-3 for the locals. From then on the score began to see-saw with the Morgan lads hanging on by a one or two point lead. Twice the score was tied in the first 10 minutes of play and at one time Seminary had a two point advantage. But this didn't last long as Sheffy and Hawkins began to feed the ball to Young in such rapid succession the score board read 18-11 for Morgan at the end of the first period. **Second Half** With the opening of the second half Morgan began to find the basket from all angles of the court. Young and Hill being fed the ball by Hawkins, Payne and Sheffy. This swift passing game took the preachers by surprise and found the ball thru the net before they realized what it was all about. Bota teams missed a number of free throws, Morgan made two out of eight while Seminary caged six out of 11. Hoyle was the luminary for the visitors and high scorer, making four field goals and two free throws for a total of 10 points. Atlantic with two pointers for Morgan, making 14 and 13 respectively, this was due to the excellent passing of the other team members. Coming in in the game late, Jean Suggs, brother of Chick, the New England champion, played a bangup game and made two difficult shots from the floor. The Preliminary Amid much whistle blowing, the Celtic girls team won a one-sided game from the Morgan girls by a 39-9 score. Miss Offut was certainly "off it" and missed many shots that should have counted, the ball rolling around the rim of the basket and falling on the floor. At half time Morgan was trailing a 19-6 count. Friday night, Feb. 27th, Mr. Robert Tarter gave a dance at Moses Hall. Most of the younger set of Baltimore and a few out-of-town guests were present. A fine time was had by all. They danced to the strains of good music. Howard Spencer and Thaddeus White; Howard; M. Carroll of Dumbar High School, Washington, were present.

CAL. 2934 Heard and Seen In Baltimore The annual convention of the Burgars and Robbies was held in Baltimore Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Of the most prominent honorees in the world aff afl afl were present. 1930 The presiding officer was a local pug, whose musk Ralph Matthews occupies a conspicuous place in all the recognized Roguz Galleries in the city. He is popular that all the jail wardens called him by his first name. As these bonnie footpads plodded in he requested them to park their artillery in the cloak room. When they had complied the dump looked like a United States arsenal. After appointing a committee to devise ways and means to relieve the public of their cold cash painlessly, the business of the meeting was taken up. It was moved and seconded that all policemen should be accepted as honorary members of the organization. This motion was objected to by Murderer Mike, who reminded them that Section 2 of the laws specifying that a shot another member would be fired 10 cents. He said that shooting cops was the only pleasure he got out of life. Second Story Sykes suggested that each member have his calling card printed and had them to the people they were going to rob just like insurance agents and lawyers do. He told them he read, "Noob am and Shooten, Burgher's office hours 12 P. M. to 4 A. M." Joe, the Film Flammer, said that the members ought to make it a prank. He said when they took a sucker's money, he said if he didn't give a glass diamond for a dupe's life savings his conscience bothered him. Joe always was conscientious like that. Larry, the Hat, was one of those veggs who was afraid he would catch cold if he didn't have a pair of steel bracelets around his wrists. If he wasn't looking from the inside of iron bars he got homesch. His and chain was to have a ball and chain leg and a brass buttoned Dick standing over him with a shot gun. If some of these birds saw an account of a robbery or a murder with out their names attached they thought the Editor owed them an apology. Some of these Cloppies were actually so hard they cleaned their teeth with an electric drill and cement for cereal. They voted a large appropriation for the benefit of the Orphan Children's Parents and the meeting was adjourned. CHISOLET LOSES Staunton, Va. The Chisolot club was defeated by the Lynchburg team here in Houston, the Sunny Side Auditorium. The score was 4-10 with Lynchburg on the large end. MORGAN Vs.

Davis, Secretary of the United States Department of Labor, discussing some of the effects of Negro migration with Karl F. Phillips, Commissioner of Conciliation, in the secretary's office, expressed the sincere hope that ample funds for education and training, without exception as to race or locality, may soon be available in every state in the Union. The Secretary of Labor said: "We do not live in this country as a white race or as a black race, but, rather, as fell-fledged Americans, all under the same flag and the same Government. Hence all must be prepared to carry the burdens of our country in order to make it truly in its joys and its progress. "The Negro migration of the past eight years has taught us the lesson of the double cost of educational neglect. These migrants, to whom a large measure of training in the industrial and educational standards of America had not been previously available, though they rapidly became aware of the new conditions of the industrial and community life to which they migrated, have themselves felt the effect of insufficient training; the sections to which they came have been severely taxed; not only in dollars and taxed; not only in dollars and cents, but in the extra strain.

This does not mean they should not take part in politics, because ministers which are occasionally necessary, nor that they should not be heartily interested in everything that affects the welfare of humanity. "But to my mind, their one specific and all-improved job is the business of Christian manhood and womanhood, and that job is big enough and vital enough to employ and tax every ounce of their time, energy and intelligence."—Mrs. Lilian A. Lottier, 1693 Dudl Hill avenue. "So, says Urban League Head "Every clergyman should urge his followers to exercise their rights and assume their duties as citizens. But I do not believe the clergyman should go so far as to tell his people for whom to vote nor himself actively engage in politics. Indeed, he does not have time for politics."—R. Maurice Moss.

News of churches and church organizations inserted free o. charge. Just ask for the Church Editor; The FORUM The FORUM We Have Not Noted This General Rejoicing Over Mistakes of Any Leaders. Let us help Liberia and Haiti, by Country Wide free will offering suggests Dr. George F. Bragg. MR. EDITOR: The 12th of April, which this year coincides with Easter, is the 1838 anniversary of the first Negro organization in the United States, the Przyfraz Society." Directly, from this organization was born a colored Episcopal Church, and an African Methodist Episcopal Church; the latter resulting in the birth of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. It would be utterly impossible to take the race of the African Methodist Episcopal Church from this first organization. At any rate, it occurs to me, that the race in the State of Maryland could lead off in a most necessary and good work, to the glory of God, which would, quite likely, result in influencing our people in every other State in order to follow the example of Maryland. My suggestion is just this. Let every colored church, of whichever denomination, and every colored organization of whatever description, loges in the book of the day, an afternoon of Easter, or on some day or night in the week following, have a brief service of Thanksgiving to Almighty God for all that has come to the race through the "birth of organization, which one hundred years ago was a veritable "Resurrection" of our group. And since the example of Cornelius is worthy of our imitation, in this respect, our alms" accompanying our prayers, our thanksgiving, our tary "Thanksgiving Offering" to God, which offering should be divided into two equal parts, and one half presented to the authorities of the Republic of Liberia, and the other half to the authorities of the Republic of the United States. The brave black men" of our own group who have struggled all these years to maintain such republics for the benefit of the descendants of the African race would be greatly heartened by the afternoon the part of their brethren in Maryland. We believe that the same idea would be adopted by the people of our group in every State, and the sum total raised would be of the greatest assistance countries; and, at the same time, it would all re-act on our behalf, and raise us in the estimation of our fellow white countrymen, who would the more be aroused to a sense of accord under the latter measure of justice and fair play. The Writer Bemons Desecration by Park Board of Sacred Washington Monument Allow me to call your attention to the fact that the Park Commissioners, J. Cockman Pooh Bah, and a group of frivolous artists, are from time to time cutting up and dissecting beautiful George Washington's monument, and its surroundings which were designed, built and paid for to stay there, for evermore. Those people who are frivolous gingerbread artists and clever engineers that surely knew what they were doing, and everything was put in place as it should be. Now, these frivolous gingerbread artists put there, that things that are entirely out of place. The place of sacred memorials is not the place to exhibit any such things. Expositions, museums, art galleries or amusement parks, are for such things. Why are they allowed and who gave them the privilege to cut up this grand memorial which was second to none in the world? This bungalow, what not sacred memorial means. The last act of this unimindful group was the placing of the Lafayette statue at Charles and Monroe Park, but call this Lafayette square, while at present there is a Lafayette Square and has been for many years, and a long avenue named Lafayette. There are a hundred or more differen- tities to be set up which would be more appropriate, namely, Homewood and Charles, North avenue and Charles, Lafayette and Charles, Mount Royal, Lafayette and Charles, Berry, Sanitoga, Lexington, Lafayette and Baltimore and Charles. The last named would be a good choice as it is the compass center of the city. At this point it would be surrounded by stately looking buildings. The next three places out of many more that would be more suitable than where the statue now stands. If placed at any one of these I mentioned, it might be set as if going to the aid of Washington. It is merely memorial as it was originally should not have been disturbed for trivial ideas. 1014 Woodley Street. ers Engage cics--Yes And No pinions On Whether Ministers ative Politicians in politics to the extent. that as a leader he would be able to advise along lines of politics."—Mrs. E.

Jewish And Christian Religions Were Copied From Negroes Jewish and Christian religions are in no sense original. They were copied from Negroes. This is the statement of Dr. Albert Churchward, white, whose new book, 'The Origin and Evolution of Religion,' was published recently by E. P. Carruthers of New York. The book sells for $15. According to Dr. Churchward the Garden of Eden was in Africa along the banks of the Southern Nile. Adam he said, were Negroes and started the human race in the quest for the divine. These black people, he said, have their Messiah, both ideas of which were later copied by the Jews and Christians. The African or Egyptian Origin of Jesus or Orisha the mother and Horus, the son.

Most of our money, but how many of us along with our self-respect? this wife and the esteem of his life for what he thought was a write a book on what comprises Christian Religions From Negroes conflict with Satan who carried him on to a high mountain, went fishing with a miraculous net, made the blind to see, walked on the water, fed the multitude with seven loaves, called to the dead, was known by his cross, was the first born from the dead, the good shepherd, the Lamb, the Lion, the Vine and proached to the spirits in prison. As Jesus was born in Bethlehem, "the house of bread, so was Horus born in Bethlehem," he wrote in the bread." Hence, argues Dr. Churchward, the story of Jesus is no more than the symbolism of Horus, rewritten—indeed, he thinks, ill-written also. In fact, the life of the Jewish Jesus is copied so closely from that of the Christian, Dr. Churchward doubts whether the Jewish Messiah ever existed. Dr. Churchward also shows the development of the sacrament in religion. Cannibals, he said, sacrificed human beings, Jews later offered sacrifices of animals and fruit which were burned upon an altar. Today the sacraments are abolished in favor of the sacrament.

PREACHERS APPROVE POLITICS Ministerial Political Activity Provokes Hated Discussion That the services to this nation of the ministers of the gospel as politicians is not being given due appreciation was the high point of his work. His Work and His Worries," read at last Wednesday's meeting of the M. E. Preachers' Meeting, by the Rev. R. P. Coates, pastor of Whatcoat M. E. Church, and which provoked one of the liveliest discussions this body has had for some time. The Rev. Allen, Sparrows Point, was strongly against the minister taking any part whatever in politics, stating that if a preacher gives all his time to his work and teaching as a preacher should, he will not have time to know and comply with those who have spent years in study of the subject. Dr. Ernest Lyon, who was very much wrought up, declared that everything we now enjoy is obtained by the minister in politics. He also asked the following question: "Who but the minister in politics keeps the doors ofmovement housed in such places that are detrimental to the boys and girls, closed on Sunday? "Who helps to effectively champion the cause of prohibition but the minister in politics?" He further stated that the preacher should know every walls and scene of life—should he be taken to the Rev. J. T. Colbert, of Grace Presbyterian Church, and the Rev. J. C. Olden, of the Plymouth Congregational Church. Washington, D. C., who with the Rev. C. Y. Trigg, formerly of Sharp Street Memorial, were introduced at the meeting. The Rev. Olden also gave his views on the subject, declaring that the preacher has a right to the politics or any other walk of life. Said the Rev. Olden, "All the apostles, as well as rulers, were politicians." I approve of a minister voting as a citizen. The constitution of the United States confers that privilege upon every American citizen; but for a minister to actively engage in political matters, he must be of place. I do not wish my meaning to be misconstrued. It a minister attends to his religious connections in his congregation and community and looks after the spiritual welfare of his flock as he is destined to do. I think he is fulfilling his religious obligations. I approve of a minister reading the press of as to enlighten himself on the important subjects which have a bearing on politics in order to know of events which would follow the election of any candidates, who would propose laws, ungodlike laws, like the laws of his community and against his religious convictions. I do not mean that he should take his test on Sunday on these above suggestions, or preach a sermon on them. He can his people as good as he goes daily as he interests them on various subjects. The basis of my covenant is solely my brief experience in political activities. By personal observation I have found the methods that are pursued to best suit the nature of the highest nature which makes the situation entirely for laymen. My earnest concession is that a minister would be placed in a position that would handicap him in his religious activities. Clarence F. Tydings, 1215 Division St. Dr. W. H. Moses To Speak Here The Rev. Dr. W. H. Moses, campaign director of the National Baptist Convention with Southern headquarters in Nashville, Tenn., addressed the Baptist Ministers' Conference.

AFRICA PUTS ISLAM BEFORE CHRISTIANITY Legislator Says It Is Due To White Hypocrisy Christian missionaries are not making progress in Asia and Africa because of white hypocrisy, Harry E. Davis, member of the Ohio Legislature, of Cleveland, told students of Ohio State University, in Columbus, recently. "Indeed, it appears that Africa is destined to become a great Mohammedan Empire. The darker race in the country is a warrior, they will not kindly accept their love of love and brotherhood when the denial of their essential manhood by Christian people negatives the tenets which they are asked to accept."

GOMPERS' PRAYER FOR AMERICA EUSTACIE GAY (For The Associated Negro Press "Nurse, the end is near. God May they may grow better day by day!" These are reported to be the last words of the late Samuel Gompels, president of the American Federation of American citizens of African descent join sincerely in saying, "So mote it be." Because there are some American institutions that need blessing, of course, his ain'tings human, there is room for improvement. God bless our Courts—of Injustice, where, North and South, the word of God is sound, the sound of good repute, accorded precedence over the word of the most reputable Negro; where the Goddess of Justice hit the eye for a minute to see if a black or woman is involved, and then gets blind again, to the sorrow of the Negro illigant. Yes, Mr. Gompels, God bless Mr. Gompels, they grow better day by day. Then God bless lynching.—another peculiar American "institution," which takes Negro children, disobeys them, burns them alive, at the stake, hangs them to the limbs of trees, and rids them of their freedom. God bless Lynching bees, which inspire Thirty automobile loads of Men to perform the heroic feat of removing One boy, if he is not killed and burning him! Yes, Mr. Gompers, God bless this peculiarly American "institution." We sincerely hope it will "grow better" among our Gompers, and inform others, because the adopted it as head of the American? Federation of Labor; an institution; that assigns to the Negro children to place in industry, commerce, politics and human society. Certainly, Mr. Gompers, we open this peculiarly American institution will grow better day by day. And we could go down the landmarks and show how much they need the prayer of Mr. Compensers in American thought and life. SUGGESTS POLITICAL PLAN FOR 1928 The 1924 election has passed. The results are: It found our leaders splitting hairs and drawing eye-sauce, to speak, and with what enthusiasm, to authorise, and to editors prophesied, a sweeping victory for the Republican party without any of the conventions seriously weighted or considered. Shall we be our cry in 1923 or shall we recruit our forces how? We should resolve at this New Years that we will build a platform strong enough to understand the assaults of time. We will face the challenge race that they come together in an amenable conference and thrash out the desires and needs of our people and weld them in a platform that will be the most powerful and the twelve millions may unite to support them. Thought must proceed action for the best result. The Negroes are waiting to support a man and a live issue, but the position of our leaders has been an enigma. I wish for all of us a Prosperous and a Happy New Year. And to the AFRO may it continue to stand an oasis, to give thought to the thirsty mind. J. STANLEY JAMES.

The Boss him Fo Call VErnon 6016 GOOD MORNING JUDGE The Afro Court Reporter She Blushes Too Much Miss Mary Smith, 500 St. Mary's street, stood before His Honor in the "Northwestern Monday, the picture of outraged murdered madochoh, John Williams, 1018 N. Calhoun street, was accused of doing the kissing. "Your Honor," exclaimed the girl, "I was walking on St. Mary's street when this man, a police officer, pulled me in a hall and kissed me," A deep blush on the girls' cheeks. It was this blush that spotted the affair, for it remained strong and was so bright that the judge leoned over it. It was so shocking that thick came to "Judge," said Williams, "that girl didn't nothing but a vamp." She called me in that hall, and when I didn't have any money she put up an arm in the air, looking at the painted lips and rouged cheeks and blunt, "Cause dismissed." When a man is in a questionable place he shouldn't be surprised at anything that happens. John Reslis, 421; E. Lombard street, white, learned this after a meeting at 408 Somerville Thursday. Reslis, who is a native of Greece, went to the above address to call on Miss Edna Jones. He didn't know just what time he went there, but he lid know that the sun was well up before he left. He also knew that he had disappeared, and being unbile to stand such a loss Reslis sought police aid. As a result Edna was forced to leave her warm bed early enough to say "Good morning, Judge!" Of course he was just as ignorant as to where the money had gone as to where he was held for the grand jury. Reslis was held as a state's witness so that between the two they can figure out where the money went in ting to tell the jury. The police themselves admitted that the whole affair was more than they expected when Loom Stanley rushed into the Northeastern and in a breathless voice informed then that a man and threatened to shoot him to 802 Somerset street, the home of Lee Smothers, who was alleged to have made the threats. The police arrived in time to see the flying figure of Mrs. Smothers and hear the report of a revolver. Both Mrs. Katherine Smothers and her husband, in compliance with the station, houses where the Magistrate demanded an explanation. Stanley explained that he was standing on the corner when the wife called him, and being an "old flame" accepted the invitation. A nice time was had by all before, friend husband appeared and the police started the shooting started. The judge wouldn't agree with Smothers' contention that a man has a right to shoot at his own wife, so he fined him $25 and costs. A man has a perfect right to object to his best girl walking out with some other sheik when he has two good walking legs himself, but when that man has four children at home, oh well, that makes a difference. It was a situation of this kind that brought Joseph Stanley, Premont avenue, into the Northwestern Monday morning, with his boat, with bearing him. The accusee men, John Wilson, 1317 Glimor street and James Taylor, proceeded to explain to His Honor. They were walking down the street with Margerete Girl Found, Lost And Found Again Girl Found, Lost And Found Again Missing Girl Located in New York Is Brought Back Here Bench Tilghman, 14, 111$ Rigs ave. north, who left her home February 14, was located by the Missing Pers- sons Bureau in New York City last week and returned home.

For the girl made her escape, but was found later at 1802 Maryland avenue.

And then the 'un began. "And, Your Honor," said Taylor, "he is married and has four children."

According to the management there is a labor turnover of 25 or 30 workers. The most part, consist of girls who do not find it necessary to work steadily and are given work of this class.
