Deputies from the State department were unable to substantiate reports believed to have eminated from President F. D. McKenzie to the effect that the fire was caused by students involved in the recent strike. Now Pamphlets Out Two new pamphlets have been issued by the president containing letters and other articles justifying his actions in the recent student strike. According to the latest pamphlet issued Monday, the student wrote the strike in 600 and the end of that week was 344, indicating that $8 per cent of the students had been lost through the strike. This included the college, high school, elementary school and college departments. The college was the closest to all, 44 per cent of the students leaving having failed to return. JuBola Charges Perjury Charges that President McKenzie perused himself during the recent strike were declared by W. E. B. of the Crisis. "McKenzie is determined that the dissatisfied students must either stay at Fisk University or lose their chance of education. Nevertheless, when threatened with an unwarranted arrest or account if unwarranted arrest occurs during the so-called trial, McKenzie, having no witnesses to support him, went into court and so on soiled that the damage suits be wrought, signed the following paragraph: "Fisk University will give the undersigned students their credits so as to enable them to matriculate in any other standard University, and will not throw any objection or impediment in the way of their matriculation in any other educational institution." (Signed) F. A. McKENZIE, President. "This was also counter-signed by seven of the students who were threatened with suspicion and was taken 11th, before Lucca McKenzie, Notre Public. Certificates "No withstanding this, however, Iask students who have applied for admission to Howard University, students who signed the above pact, but other students who voluntarily withdrew and against whom there was no charge and who complied, have been refused certificates of honorable dismissal. One parent, a physician of good standing, sought to remove his daughter from Howard University and had nothing to do with the disturbance. The secretary of Howard University replied: We have been placed in a very unpleasant situation. The records of all entering students, the Registrar tells me, must show whether or she is honorably dismissed, the official records sent from Piskor to Howard University do not show this. All 'Transcripts 'The Same "Each and every transcript sent here to our Registrar bears some statement to the effect that student during student time which of the student is an honorable dismission under the regulations of our Faculty," she the authorities of Fisk University, "is not only persecuted but are seeking to ruin the career of every student who dares leave the institution. Parents of students thus treated immediately enter suit against the student, warning to any Negro who thinks of sending his child to Fisk University."

Page Four GRAFT ALLEGED MASONSWAGE COURT FIGHT Erection of Five Story Office Building in D. C. Halted By Factions Claim Made That President Was Receiving 5 per cent Commission Washington, D. C. (Afro Bureau)—The Free and Accepted Masons of the District of Columbia have carried their controversy relating to the construction of a new masonic temple at Tenth and U streets, N. W., to the District Supreme Court for settlement. Sult. Filed Building Uncompleted The New Masonic Hall Corporation was organized for the purpose of acquiring a suitable building for the use and accommodation of the several branches of the Mason order in this jurisdiction. It was incorporated under the laws of the District of Columbia, April 19, 1919. Its capital stock was $50,000, divided into 500,000 shares at $0.625 each. In 1920 the capital stock was increased to $100,000 common stock at $10 a share, and $125,000 preferred stock at $25 a share. The stock is owned by the Grand Lodge, the subordinate lodges and individual members of the order. In June, 1922, the trustees brok ground at 10th and U streets, northwest, for the purpose of erecting a five-story building, the cornerstone of which must be August 1 and work progressed at intervals until December, 1923. Since that time no work has been done on this building. Court Permits Meeting A meeting of the stockholders of the New Masonic Hall Corporation had been called for Friday night, March 20, for the purpose of authorizing the $100,000 and increase the capital stock. The loan would be used, it was said, to complete the partial structure at 10th and U streets. The plaintiffs in their bill asked the court to enjoin this meeting. They claimed that it was the intention of the board of trustees to re-issue the Grand Lodge and the subordinate lodges to vote the proxies represented by them. A hearing on the rule to show cause why the trustees should not be enjoined from holding the special meeting an dwelling on the authorization of the proposed loan was denied on Friday. He directed the lawyers to reach an agreement on the question. The lawyers agreed that the meeting should be permitted for the sole purpose of being called to order and adjourn to meet 30 days later. If however, the case has not been accepted, no business will be transactional by agreement of counsel. Justice Hizy agreed an order to that effect. Graft is Alleged In the bill of complaint, it is alleged that bids were submitted but were not accepted by the president of the corporation, Jesse H. Mitchell, unless the bidders acceded to impossible conditions. An affidavit by Mr. Johnson appears in the bill, that he submitted a bid to furnish material and labor and construct the brick masonry for the new masonic temple at a cost of $15.875. He declares that Mr. Mitchell proposed that he increase his original figures to $16.685, which would constitute a commission for Mr. Mitchell. He states that Mr. Mitchell gave his reason for this proposition that he was not a salaried man and felt that he was justly entitled to the commission. Mr. Johnson further declares that he compromised upon a five per cent increase, and accordingly submitted a 'bid for $16.688, which was accepted and a contract entered into between himself and the New Masonic Hall Corporation. He says, after his commencement he requested the cancellation of this contract and he was released. Architect Rejects Work "The trustees, however, deny these allegations. They say in their answer "that Mr. Johnson submitted only one bid, which was accepted by the board of trustees; that he began work, but because of his unworked brain, he worked for the architect, Howard W. Cullen, edited it and recommended that Johnson be discharged as the brick contractor, and that the architect fur- Call VErnon 6016 BURNING UP SM Washington—Health Officers show watching the home of Eph D on Hickey Lane.

Everything inside the house, where Sixteen persons were living was destroyed. It was decided to burn the building because it was found to be impossible to fumigate following discovery that De Voe had smallpox. Those who lived in the house are now quarantined. HOPES GLIMMER FOR COOLIDGE APPOINTMENT Washington, D. C.—Hopes, for the early appointment of a colored person to a Federal office requiring confirmation by the United States Senate were dissipated when the extra session of the Senate adjourned without a day last Wednesday. Since it had convened in special session at noon, March 4th, the Senate had given its time largely to the consideration of executive nominations and the ratification of treaties. During the special session it confirmed the nominations of an Attorney General of the United States, an assistant to the Attorney General, two Assistant Attorney General, an Assistant Secretary of Agriculture, an Ambassador to Argentina, Ministers to Paraguay, Uruguay, Nicaragua and Honduras, a collector of customs for the port of Honolulu, two judges of the police court of the District of Columbia, several other nominations to important positions and a host of postmasters. No colored man, however, was nominated to fill a vacancy in any of these positions. With the exception of one of the police court judges, no colored Republican aspired to fill any of these vacancies. The colored candidates for office seem to be seeking only those jobs that are already filled by colored men. SAY "WISE" SOLOMON KEEPS TWO HOMES Wife Asks For Divorce And Names Correspondent Washington, D. C.—Through Attorney John H. Wilson, Mr. Dessele Soul was filed suit against her husband, Richard Solomon, of 65 G street, southwest, for an absolute divorce. She names Ida May Hunter as correspondent. Mrs. Solomon says in her bill that we some kind of 1924, her husband has lived in a state of adultery with the correspondent. She also says that in last August he gave her money to attend a fraternal convention in Pittsburgh, Pa., and upon her return he would not pirit her to come into their home. He alleges that in addition to the home where he now lives at 65 G street, southwest, which is entirely furnished, he maintains another house entirely furnished at 617 1-2 First street, southwest, where he acquires kind of business, in connection with which he owns and uses a six-passenger Hudson car His total income she says, is about $350 per month. Southern Students Seek Steel Jobs Washington.—It is reported that the United States Chamber of Commerce has received a request from the representative of about 400 Negro students of Georgia for assistance in placing the students in such plants during the coming vacation season, where they may be given employment in both the skilled and unskilled occupations. In lieu of this type of work the students would prefer consideration for places in the railway transportation service, in which they would be hoping to save sufficient funds to meet expenses of the coming fall and winter school terms.

E. TAYLOR New York. — Clarenco Williams and Perry Bradford, two prominent colored song writers of New York, were made to cheer up and spit out their own words in court Friday before a jury, where legal proceedings were in progress for the recovery of damages for infringement of rights. Williams claimed that Bradford had stole the lightning out of his composition called, "Hunting For The Bully." Bradford's rebuttal was that his words were different and the time of the song was altogether different of Williams. One was jazz and the other somebody in a quick step march, could be easily played by a brass band. The Bradford composition, it could be easily seen, was a great improvement over that of Williams, disregarding other details. In fact, it was catchy and a little out of the ordinary. The judge had each composer to render to the jury a recital of his individual composition. While they both proved bad singers, yet there was enough gotten off to please the court's audience. The law firm of Watts and Madison is building the defendants' side of the case and a verdict is expected next month. Carl Diton's Recital East Orange, N. J.—An audience of more than 250 attended a piano recital by Carl Diton, Negro pianist and composer of Philadelphia in the Lincoln House, 12 Jones St., East Orange last Friday. Mr. Diton's numbers in included "Chaconne in D Minor," "Bach-susoni," "Sonat in B Minor," Liszt overture from "Tannhammer," "Wagner-Lustz," and "Scherzo in E Major," 54, 53, 53. Select readings were given by J. Percy Gallego of Brooklyn, and selections by the Lincoln House Glee Club, under the direction of Mrs. Gertrude J. Saulders, of Plainfield, completed the program, and was arranged by Mrs. S. D. Harrison head worker of the Community House.

AROUND HARLEM WITH JACKSON New York.—On entering the comedy club recently, we were agreeably surprised to see an attractively dressed young lady industriously working over a panel portrait of a woman in the reception room. She was a regular picture artist, pretty smock, handful of brushes, palette and all; and the unfinished picture was already a beautiful something. The Gemure, stricty businesslike, little bit of olive brown artist interested us, and we began making inquiries, for artists are rare among us—feminine ones, especially so. The little lady who has a contract to do four panels for the club proved to be aida Jida Cana originated from the public and high school after which she was a pupil at the School of Fine Arts and made pictures from early childhood.

At a recent dinner given by Horace Liverwright in connection with the American Opera movement, Donald Ogden Stewart advanced the theme of the American Opera should "shuffle Along," and for this intelligent observation an American was called a humorist by a flippant columnist in a daily column in which suggests the Negro simply must be funny.

Undoubtedly one of the best draws that any manager can play. Ellie May Moore and Rastus Wingfield closed. The reality of Wingfield's career is that he is working double of merit, well dressed and clean. If "Zeb" Matthews, Lawton avenue, St. Louis, will correspond with relatives in Baltimore, it will be greatly appreciated.

This is a brief sketch of the fascinating story that is coming to the Dunhar Theatre next Friday (27th). On the beach of a South Sea Island sat a young and pretty girl, crooning to a babe in her arms. The clothing she wore consisted chiefly of rags; and her living quarters were a squidl but visible a short distance up the white, sandy beach. Then she would look up and toward the horizon, where the blue sky met the green waves. Thousands of miles away in that direction she possessed a palatial home, with a wardrobe containing many luxurious garments, servants and everything that wealth could give her. As she thought of them and then looked down at her attire a smile of amusement lighted up her features; she could find only humor in the incongruity of her life. For she had found out that her life from civilization. Wanda not only, but after jumping from the yacht on which her husband was acquainting a riotous group of guests, she had been found by a young missionary, and to their civilization now had no appeal.

A great contribution to the screen is "Merton of the Movies," which comes to the Regent next Friday and Saturday. Glenn Hunter, who created the role of Merton on the legitimate stage, scores a distinct triumph and is loyally backed by the talented members of a carefully selected cast, each one of whom does his or her bit toward making this feature one of the outstanding productions of the season. In addition to its intense heart appeal, its delicious human and satire, this picture possesses the drawing power that stuccoed to a production giving an intimate look-in-the-dark life. Its all very realistically handled. Merton, fresh from the burg, with all his hopes and ambitions bubbling over as he watches the movie goal, is a very life-like character, one that gets your sympathy in bucketfuls, even while you are smiling over his serio-comic misfortunes.

Indian heel and toe performer, placed second in the mile and a half against a large field of handicapped opponents in the postoffice Clerk's Games in the Sixty-ninth Regiment Army. Granville started from scratch with Willie Plant, white, and finished second and breezed home 25 yards behind the champion. Plant made the distance in 10.05 3-5, which broke the old record established in 1912 by Goulding by two fifths. The plant consisted of 16 starters, all with a 16 second handicap except Granville and Plant. Joe Bright and his "hired boys and girls" have done it again. This time they are "saying" with a combination of musical comedy as a curtain raiser, to a stirring little play by the first part is a smart little reviewette with the choristers "all dressed up" having somewhere to go, and dancing and singing their way to fame and fortune. For fear that any attempt to single out individuals with musical acrobatics accurately we merely list them "Enirte Company," and call it a day. The scenic investiture may not be sneezed at either, contributing much to the general merit of the production. Elirta Davis, did a "South Sea" solo dance that was performed by Gray pink withvy Joseph Jones, local violinist, arranged all music. Part two of the entertainment is plotted in the office of the AFRO-AMERICAN WEEKLY whose editor (Joe Bright) has visions of co-operation with the public. He refuses money, and other incidentals offered him for the aid of his paper in supporting the Republican Party. Various telling allusions are made to the support due Negro business people from their own business. He acted and acted, one which the audience repeatedly interrupted with vigorous applause. Joe Bright was splendid as the editor who placed the good of all Negroes above personal gain. He encouraged training in a villain's role, and Lemon," "Dink" Stewart, Theresa Brooks and Millie Holmes also contributed capably in support. The climax is dramatic and stirring, the ending is dramatic and the WEEKLY AFRO was stirring and effective to the ninth degree. Organist Back Jerome Carrington, has returned to the Regent succeeding Miss Lillian Reid. An extraordinary ovation was awarded the organist at both shows on the album, with violinist, obligato, played by Paul Harris, regular violinist, at this house was the occasion for more comment. Carrington returns to Baltimore, from New York, where he was jointly engaged at the Everglades Music Festival, a well known form of music publishers. He is a former student of the Baltimore High School and is an accomplished pianist as well. The return of Carrington again makes the organist entirely unreliable. Charles Bouthe, is the drummer and Thomas Hillary cornetist.

While not strictly "jazz" as the term is mustest known, it contains several numbers and scenes adapted to the new rhythms of present day popular music. The music is by W. Frank Harling (white) of New York. Harling has been interested in popular music for quite a while. He was a large contributor to several successful successes. This has been merely a diversion with him for his inclination has always been toward the better class music. Helfitz Likes Blues Among operatic and concert stars Eva Gauthier is the only one recalled as having given any serious performance to the composition. Although John McCormick, the late Caruso have sung certain popular numbers. Tascha Helfitz is said to take much pleasure in playing "low down" airs on other than on his wonderful violin. It is denied that Otto Kahn, whose suggestion for a jazz opera some months ago received such widespread acclaim, with this departure from orchthodox musical methods. New Orleans Story The story has its locale in New Orleans, the atmosphere giving occasion, especially composed jazz selections will be rendered. A jazz dance ballet is also contemplated.

The Greeks give six reasons for not honoring the challenge of the Scholastics and charge the management to bribe "Curtie" Brown and Tom Wheatshe on the night of February in the Athenian-Five game. The Athletes have a game scheduled in every event. The date of the game is the Scholastics for the opening game of the series. Manager Wright's letter to "Joie" Saunders follows: Mr. J. W. Saunders, Mgr. of the Scholastics, carrolton Ave. dear Mr. Saunders: In answer to your communication of March 16th in late September, I asked you to attend the Athens and Scholasties, I beg to inform you that at the regular meet on March 10th, it was officially decided not to play the above mentioned games for the following reason: Because of the publication of the game under date of February 27th, 1925, signed by Dr. John Carpenter, alighting and Tom Wheaty, were borrowed or stolen from your team and has not been shown that these statements were false, and admitted this before the APRO came out of court. Other untrue statements purposefully made and calculated to do harm. We take this as 3rd. Because of certain movie ads of your club appearing on the television of the recent Vudal game making an unsuccessful attempt at "mudding" the instrument to the success of your own game. This does not help clean athletics. We do not approve of 32. Because of the reported attempts of Dr. Camp and Ms. Wheatley, by the players themselves, to Brown and Wheatley, by the players themselves, to Brown and Washington's birthday, February 23rd, and caused them not to return to the players' games, Washington's game. This was highly unsportsmanlike, numerous statements of ill-feeling openly and notoriously made by your players and club members against the players and members of the Athenian Athletic Association. 33. Intentionally we are playing in you offered for a game. 34. Because of the best interests of your club, in view of the above relicted unsportsmanlike action and definitely expressed ill feeling, would most likely have an unsavory end. And so, after the most careful card for a local public, ever unkind to see, appreciate and foster clean athletics in all its forms, I am pleased with high regards and esteem for clean athletics at all times. I have the honor to remember our sports. sports for cleaner sports. HOWARD C. WRIGHT. Mgr. Athletic Asso. DATES ANNOUNCED FOR P. A. L.

Pr. — Earl Johnson, the dean of American distance runners, who placed third to Nurnal and fourth to the Olympics in France, is doing a great work out at the Edgar Thomson plant in Braddock. Just to see him in action, with him giving him a thumbs-up, the playing sturdy limbs of 100 per cent American families, is an inspiration. Johnson has developed a winning basketball team out in his section of the country. The boys are all very athletic, and the hardest for love of the game. And after all, that is what really counts. But, though they might not realize it, Johnson is a molder of charm. He is taking her shoes, nothing more, and training and molding them into the type of citizenship which will reflect credit and honor to the race. They are not playing the GAME of Life later on.

Light heavyweight is a outstanding figure of re-creation. Lawson, successfully exploited by Walk Miller, set the tongue wagging in less than a round of merry glove protechnics. This was the "Keeds" initial appearance since his defeat at the hands of Tom Gibbons. He was the most impressive job. He measured Norfolk with a perfectly timed right to the buton and to the buton, but just as the referee told "seven." He made a gaital attempt to arise, but fell back, plainly punch-drunk. But the flesh was weak and a new "colored" light heavyweight "champion" was crowned. Miller had his order for five thousands red hot posters in at the printers before the crowd was half way out of the building. No flies on Miller, who by the way, is responsible for the senational rise of Tiger Flowers. Ball Player Dies Garnett W. Norman, veteran Red Sox outfielder, famous of last season, died at his home in Chanatoa, Tenn. recently. He was a fayee of the team, and on that "Bug House," and had been with the Red Sox since 1922. Stunt Night Goes Over With A Loud Bang In "Y" Gymnasium The First Annual Fog Raiser and Stunt Night which was held in the "Y" gym last Friday night went over with a loud bang. The gym has the old "gym" been packed so with human beings to get a peek at "Bill" Mason's "golf raiser." As early as 6 o'clock the sidewalk was crowded with the curious and inquisitive seeking admission. At 8.30 when the program went up or rather when the program started, the audience The program opened with a drill by all of the boys. This was followed by the Arrow Specials under Walter Shorts, drills and plays. The Celtics with leader Maco Thomas, followed by the Red Circles under R. Maurice Moss and the Yellow Circles with Alan Watty, leader hard time deciding which team and leader showed the best workmanship and skill in drilling and pyramid building. The Yellow Circles created the drill with the dumb bell folded with a boxing glove on one hand and a dumb bell in the other placed on the floor and ld to go to the dumb bell was used to tap on the whereabouts of his opponent. The Red Circles executed their drill with the greatest dexterity and skill. They were awarded the first prize, which was a medal to each member and the leader. The Celtic and Arrow Specials tied for third place. The slider director did all kinds of stunts KICK-OFF IS BACK TO 40-YARD LINE Changes made by the Rules Committee in the football code are relatively unimportant. This autumn the change that will be most noticeable will be the kick-off. The ball in the kick-off will slide sides 40-yard line, and if the new change works as it is hoped it will the start of games will be considerably more interesting than last season's contest. The kick-off, with a fine opportunity for a thrilling runback, should be one of the most spectacular features in a gridiron battle, but the freestyle line with the formality of bringing the ball out to the 20-yard line without any play at all mirred the beginning of many contests. Moving the kick-off back to the 40-yard line materially strengthens this defect. The Rules Committee did its best work in not attempting radical alterations in the code. What changes were more merely refinements in the rules.

Every ruse used by the Douglass basketers was defeated.

A FLOORED FOUR TIMES FLOWERS COMES BACK AT LOU BOGASH FLOWERS IS VICTOR OVER LOU BOGASH Georgian Revenaged Defeat Suffered Few Weeks. Ago When He Lost On Foul TIGER FLOORED THREE TIMES Knocked Down Four Times, Flowers Came Back And Won By Wide Margin Boston, Mass.-Tiger Flower revenued himself for the three- round victory Lou Bogash screamed over the apexes of the cocked foul by turning the tables on the Bridgeport man Friday night in a 10-round bout under the apexes of the Coney merical A Hall. The man was floored clean for the count by the ponderous right-hand smashes of Lou Bogash, white of Bridgeport, and another to the thunderstorms without the numerals. Game Back Flighting But each time he came back, and came back viciously, cuffing, stam- ming, banging (cocking) the tiger warrior when he was wide margin, in fact, practically every round, yet he was always in danger and his escapes from complete and definite disaster were scattered through nearly every The fight, and fight it was, was one of the most sensational seen for months in this city. It was on the part of the colored man and display of dogged desperation and courage by the Bridgeport Italian. **Broad Ringside** More than 2000 fans, one of the biggest crowds of the season at a local ringside, looked on and howled and yelled they jumped up and down in their chairs, shrieking in bursts of nervous excitement and enthusiasm it will last long in memory, a triumph for the matchmaking of the Commercial A. C. Though a one-sided fight as the groundy one did, not one going nearly to Bogash out of the 10, yet paradoxically it was not. The southpaw style of the Atlantic Buzzard puzzled him to simply smother the white ringster at times with perfect showers of cuffs, slaps and pokes to the head with his right and occults them to head with his left. Waited With Kaso Punch In return Bogash crouched, ducked and dodged, did his best to escape the bombardment though without a great deal of success. He opened an eye round over the Tiger's mouth and in turn was mashed and mushed about the eyes and face. But all through it he was ever on the watch to get in one telling smash: a kayo and victory if he could. In the second round he got the punch home and the Tiger went down to one knee, though he was up immediate. Again. And connected with the Georgian, and down he sat with a thump. Again he was up without having a number toled over him. Then the mill went on to the fourth, with Flowers very much out in front when it came to reckoning up the points. Suddenly Bogles leap the right into the left, the gift chest bone and down he went, taking nine and seemingly done. Just as the referee was about to clock off the final 10 and out, "the colored boxer sprang up and hit him," he actually fought himself back by literally hurling himself against the Bridgeporter and driving him into someone he affectionately tapped and held him some fearful with his right, and hooked and emashed to head and body with his left. It was a tense moment, the big moment of the battle and a wonderfully half minute of blind smashing the Georgian gave the lie to the oft-repeated assertion that he is not there when it comes to bottom—that he will not fight back under punishment. Lost His Chance Bogash would have won the contest at that time had he followed up more closely, but to the writer, he had no chance to follow up as he was fairly blinded by the force and intensity of the attack. The fifth was a fairly easy one. Both men were tired and did little work. Flowers having the session, Flowers took the sixth, it being another cuffing and jabbing session, with him doing the bulk of the forcing. Flowers came out pretty well covered up in the seventh, his left always in a position to guard his chin. He began to slip and jump, shooting rights to the face and seldom missing. Bogash was bidding his chance, however. For a minute the men worked about the ring, with Bogash generally being forced back. Flowers in his eagerness to guard against Bogash's mighty right, overlooked the left. He left an opening and through it crashed L도's south paw, a fine hook to the jaw that dropped the Georgian in his own corner. He wasn't out but most certainly was down and presumably Bogash, the referee, the ring and its lines of hundreds of faces in the immediately whirled about him. Tiger Takes Count The referees began to toll the numbers over him and to the Tiger, aware of what was going on and that he was in danger. He felt. He was up at seven, came back at the Bridgeporter and nosed out the round. For the second time Dames Fortune. Opportunity and courage in clutches of Lou Bogash. In the eight Lou again shook up the, colored man with a, right. but the Tiger kept his feet, though wobble. He was able to move and always fought back. In the ninth and 10th rounds Lou got in several of his smashing rights, but their full heft was either broken or he was going away, and the damage was not serious. He was not out of the woods, however, until the final clang of the gong, which found him forcing Bogash in the Bridgeporter's own Several times in the mulee, Flowers got careless with his left hooks or be healthy or please Mr. Bogash.

BY EDGAR G. BROWN National Champion, Director, John Club, Nationale Tennis Club. Philadelphia, Pa. — Six-love. (8-0) is the score that Mr. Vincent Richards could beat our Jamaican neighbor, the M. Clifford, in season and out, even after resting all winter and meeting him on his home grounds after his practicing all year round. For the benefit of those writers who have been breadmasters such as Mr. B. Clark, "we repectfully call their attention to the score by which Mr. Richards beat the one season visitor, the M. Clifford, Sett 1, 6; Sett 2, 6-4; Sett 3, 8-6. The last two sets could just as well have been six-love, too, but Mr. Richards as a season player, a sportmanlike, did what he could by exclamations of "beauty," "peach," and a little generous indulgence to give away a few games to encourage his darker skin- It was, indeed, without nice of him, princely, I should say, if he had not come under the deriding a single set—a few games for Clark, but not six in a string that might create an unpleasant bit of gossip around Forrest Hills, Newport, Mammble, Skokie or other exclusive tennis clubs in America. Clark Improved Mr. Clark's game has most likely improved in the last three years because of his distinguished American and British competition, but we are still awaiting the results. He takes five sets to beat Talley Holmes is only an ordinary tennis applicant. This was in New York. I believe, he is the best. He best Mr. Holmes much easier at the second encounter in Baltimore. Possibly the perfectly lovely shade trees and the court design and directive landscape than the rule book and the accepted traditions of the game had something to do with it. Still, he has advantages as some sport writers have argued, because Talley, usually wins in Baltimore. Only last year he won the Nettleship, and the only time I bowed to the redoubtable Talley was in an exhibition set, not a match. in the twilight of the shaded court in the evening or maybe it was the swimming pool. I can hardly believe Mr. Clark found the spotted light as the sun trekked through the leafy trees concerned for a driving game. He either beat Talley by "outpatting" him or else the match was played before sunrise, or after sunset or at total noon. He have been only an overly cloudy sky. Do not think the writer doth protest too much, but I am not writing to please the rabble or his majesty. For seventh grade, according to colored people who wish to play real 1925 tennis might at least exercise their intel- Washington, D. C.—The Alpha Phi Alphas nosed out the Omega Psi Phi in a thrilling court game here this week by one point. The scout made the 2-1 at the end of the first half, the Omegas were trailing a 14 to 3 count. Stinging a whirlwind attack in the last quarter the score was brought up to one point of a tie before the whistle ended the contest. Legence by going to the library and reading Tilden's, Wilding's, Blackmere's, Paret's, Mrs. Sutton's or any one of a dozen splendid books for tennis neophiles as well as those who do not know any more about the game. They have picked up by book or crook. Tennis, like medicine or bricklaying, must be scientifically developed. Afro Editor Criticised I sincerely regret the purely bumptious faux pas of the great sporting editor of the APRO-AMERICAN in writing such a book. I was a decided asset to a player he should make an effort to mix some cut strokes with his service." (quotations are mine) and includes a wide repertoire of possible so as to confound hisponent. It takes years of practice and hard training to develop a driving game of a sufficient caliber to be serviceable and to sheer start with an easy service and increase the speed with time spent on the court. Dear Reader, this is advice and common sense of the APRO-AMERICAN Sporting Staff. Do not be confused, it is not only dubious but sadly incoherent stuff, and if it were not likely to ruin the career of someone, some demagogues I know, I would never quote it under my signature for fear that some might forget the quotation marks. Tennis is one game you had better something about it. Chen Stroke Condemned First, we must understand the use of tennis nomenclature to discuss service as if it meant a driving stroke and in the same sentence as the antithesis of chop stroke is instead it. It took Wallace Johnson, of Philadelphia, the leading chop stroke exponent in the world, just as many years of practice, also as long and stone, as Mr. Richards, of California, or Mr. Richards, of New York, who all perfected free arm driving strokes with the very significant difference that the latter three all were played by the chop stroke artist, though a prodigy, the one in a million, never arrived. Right Start Essential What can Mr. Mackey mean by talking, of mixing some cut strokes with his service as elementary players, as the subsequent expedition tends further towards a total eclipse, when he advises the beginners to start, with an easy service and increase the speed with time spent on the course. If you wish to learn to play tennis and continue to improve, you hold up and swing the racket, place the feet, balance the body and use the eyes. I like Mr. Mackey's expression about confounding your opponent with the sentence and the conclusion that a senseless, harmless, pat ball stroke is most advisable for beginners. I think that little knowledge is a dangerous thing in tennis, too. To Discuss the Game In subsequent articles we will discuss forehand and back-hand drives, volleys, smashes and in a category all by itself, service, then with the function of a court generalisal, tactics, strategy and tournament play. The AFRO-AMERICAN will renew this season the page of amateur and semi-pro baseball cards to be carried of sandlot games.

The plan will follow along the lines that were adopted in the national "umpa" were engaged to work the games in Philadelphia and Bali. That is used in all of the big leagues. Bill Dallas, white sport writer of Philadelphia, has been appointed supranational coach that will have sole charge of the arbiters. Harrisburg Shake Up Colonel Strothers of the Harrisburg Giants has decided to make several changes in the Giant roster to Edgar Wesley, first baseman, who came from Detroit last year failed to come up to the Colonel's standard and has been released. Rodgers and Russell, both infielders, were found wanting and were also given the gate. Texas Burnett, from the Lincoln Giants will fill Jordan's shoes while Charlie Thomas, an original Baltimore Black Sox will help share the catching burden. Walter Cannady, first baseman of the Homestead Giants will hold down Dick Jackson and George Flail, infielders will hold down last year's job on the Harrisburg clan. Boby Dean, from Schenectady, N. X., will attempt to hold down the hot corn. The Colonel will stand pat on the outfield with "Fats" Jenkins, "Tap" Jackson, and "Bob" Flail. The hurling corps will remain the same, except for the name of Bill a saintpawl by the name of Bill Gist-tawner. The regular staff includes Dalty Cooper, Charlie Corbett, and Nick Carter.

Bolden Selects Ledger Sports Writer To Have Charge of "Umps" RACE READERS IGNORED Thot League Will Get Suffi- cient Support From White Readers Philadelphia—The Mutual Asso- lation of Eastern Colored Baseball Clubs, in session here last week, elected Bill Dallas, white, a sports writer on the Evening Ledger, as supervisor of umpires, after it had been decided to have a rotating staff of arbiters. Dallas was the personal selection of President Ed Bolden and no other names were considered for the post. Dallas will have entire charge of the impound and they will be responsible for him and to him alone. The league voted him a monthly salary of fifty dollars. Race Papers Ignored In advocating the election of his man Bolden claimed that through him the league would be to get public newsagents. He has no arrangements to obtain such support from colored journals and apparently none will be made. Only the Eastern league has three white and five colored owners including Alex Pompez, who is a Cuban, and colored papers all over the country have been giving them miles of space since the league was organized. Fans Protest The success of the league is due entirely to the publicity given them in Race journals as these are read by colored people everywhere while still confined to their immediate locality. Fans are severely criticizing Bolden for his acation as he is largely responsible for the Dallas appointment that protest will launched against the Darby owner for this selection. ORIOLES TO PLAY CELERITAS SERIES A series that will be worth going miles to see, will be staged beginning Saturday, April 4. in the Community House "gym." when the Baltimore Orioles meet the Celticats in their third game. There is intense rivalry between the two clubs this year and it is whispered that some of the fair ladies refuse to speak to each other. The Orioles have gone thru the season without a single defeat while the Celticats lost a game to Morgan College, when from behind a school girl came from behind a 11-6 count and administered a 21-18 defeat to them. This series will decide the State title among girls and these are the two outstanding quints in Maryland. The teams will be played in games but after playing two games it was called off when the games stood one all. Both quints are being dugged diligently for this fray but both teams will be on hand to cheer their favorites.

About $80,000, enough money to provide ample income for more than a year, beginning cear year here in Baltimore because Negro business does not share in the $475,000 yearly retail foot bill of their population. These and other interesting facts about the local shop business came from a reporter for this paper this week. Many Employed Although the inquirer found that many are employed in the general shoe industry--here, the wholesale and retail industries--if done wholly by the race. Some time ago the Mujkin Shoe Manufacturing Company opened a section of its factory to colored employees in the making of complete shoes was successfully mastered under a colored foreman. But the shoe industry, being partially seasonal, must be laid off, and the reporter found this division closed when the plant was visited this week. Being the young department, the manager, the colored help was the first laid off. They will be taken back when the demand justifies it. This condition of employees economically to colored employees, the industry here as it relates Is Stable Industry Under normal circumstances the shoe industry is a stable, one, accustomed business, with salesers in the city. That shoe styles are subject to seasonal changes, however, makes it necessary for the successful dealer to study the human elements of the shoe, when carefully established it offers a steady and sure profit with less variation of prices and customs, than any other of the wearing needs. The reporter colored men and women employed in every part of the industry here from fainters to stock clerks in the large wholesale businesses. In the manufacturing plants the management said that there was no difference in the efficiency of white shoes from those they had been advanced in the trade. Sell Freak Shoes Most of the freak shoes, especially those under the Dunlap label, are made especially for colored trade, it is said. Most of the shoes are displayed mainly on Pennsylvania avenue. They are becoming a drag on the market, however, said a big distributor, as the shoes have a fashionable style, and shapes and styles are become scarce.

Mackey walks or other means of allowing first to be decapitated from start to finish with many close decisions at first during the progress of the contest. The first game McCure pitched for the Poincaré club against the Breakers he had a hitless game up to the seventh, but at the last moment weakened and allowed two hits for as many runs. Rockett had started to fallow in that first game, and as he went on to finish the game he almost achieved his hopes again. Kenyon made a fast run in catch of the left field drive that saved the day. BECKWITH RESPECTS HEAVY JOHNSON John Rockwell with the Baltimore Black Sox newest manager, has the greatest respect for "Heavy" Johnson, the Monarch's outfielder, who comes to do duty in Maryland Park this year. Rockwell withdrew the East last year in homers, costing Spedden the price of 42 balls. "Heavy" led the Western circuit with 60 hits. Rockwell hit 10 home runs and then some to keep in the running with the heavy hitting "Heavy." In writing to the Minson this week "Rock" says, "I will be in Baltimore on the 26th. I received the Amao every week since I have been here (Chicago) and have more than enjoyed it. I can see no reason why the pennant wont die in Baltimore this fall, as the boys are in the best position and are going to go. Sorry to lose Wade. John Rockwell is the best of the trade and I will have to go some to beat "Heavy." Johnson for home runs this summer. I am now tipping the scales at 155 pounds, but will lose weight as soon as I start training." JOE WILLIAMS, A FREE AGENT Another box office attraction that has been set loose is Joe "Cyclone" Williams of the Brooklyn Royals, who has been spending the winter at Palm Beach, Fla. He has been effectively dubbed by the fans as the "daddy of all pitchers." Cyclone" started his cancer in Texas in 1907 with the Old San Antonio Blacksides. Although getting along in years, Williams has quite a few baseball seasons tucked away and is one of the most colorful pitchers of the old school. Like Santop, Ben Taylor, John Lloyd and Oscar Charleston, Williams is one of the greatest box office attractions in the country. Joe has been built out as the Brooklyn management has refused to meet the demands. Williams will leave Palm Beach on the 25th and will stop over in Washington. It is rumored that the Wilmington Potomac are making a bid for the services ALLEN AND RYAN WITH HARRISBURG Red Ryan, released pitcher from the Hildaleas, and Allen, first baseman, have cost his lot with the Harrisburg club. Edgar Wesley, Harrisburg first sacker, will go West with the Detroit Stars. Harry Kenyon, pitcher and centerfielder with the Lincoln Giants last year, will sport the uniform of the Indianapolis A. B. C.'s. Finley, shortstop on the Potomacs, will play the same position with the Bacharachs, while Lindsey, who started with the Sox last year, will take his place with the Wilmington club. Jewell Thomas, Brooklyn Royal center fielder and hold out this year, has received his release and is now a free agent. A number of other changes or expired to take place before the season gets under way. The Black Sox line up is about completed, except the addition of another pitcher. Negotiations are under way for a Western moundsman that is likely to go through this week. MARATHON RUNNING Baltimore is to have her first marathon next month for the first time in some years. R. Earl Johnson and De Hart Hubbard, Olympic stars, are to be sent special invitations to be present in the capacity of officials. The course will only cover a distance of three miles, but later on in the spring a marathon will take place that will cover a greater distance. To those that are planning to go in for marathon running now is the time to begin training. A bit of advice is timely. Exactly what aspirants should be at least 19 years old as the results will be far more beneficial. The system will then be able to stand the necessary train that goes with a race of this kind. PRELIMINARY WORK IMPORTANT To go the full distance in a marathon race, preliminary work for some months is essential, and practice runs very indispensable. There is nothing like practice. Distance walking is one of the best forms of preparing for distance running; alternate daily walking one or two times running the next. It is important that one be well prepared to go to the marathon distance. In practice, you should never go the full distance at full speed. Of course, tobacco and liquor are out of the question for one training for distance running or any other sport. Sleep is all important. The fellow who thinks because he has a nice physique and a strong constitution can get along with five or six hours sleep.

Russell At the executive session of the School Board last Thursday afternoon, Chas. Reynolds, principal of the Booker T. Washington Junior and Senior High School Norfolk, Va., was appointed supervisor of colored schools here. JUST 28 WEEKS have passed since Frances M. Russell resigned as supervisor of colorado shoots in Baltimore. 28 Altho urged to fill this position Super i n tendant Henry S. W. has made no recommendation to the school Board. Questions being asked are: Is Dr. West having difficulty judging a successor to Supervisor Russell? Is it trying to save money? Is there really no need of a supervisor of colored schools? Is Dr. West opposed to a colored supervisor because it was forced on him by the strayer survey? Is Dr. West just another instance of the superintendent's mat-administration of colored schools? The appointment of Mr. Reynolds on 25 August after the resignation of the former supervisor of schools, Mr. Francis M. Russell who left the Baltimore schools last August. Mr. Reynolds is a native of Springfield, Ohio, and graduate of Wheeling College. O. D., where he received the Ph. D. degree in 1896. He took advanced work at Wilberforce in 1910 and was awarded the A. M. degree. During the summers of 1910, 1911, and 1912 pursued courses in supervision and teacher training at Columbia University. He held the position of supervising principal in Richmond, Ky., for eight years, from 1839 to 1907; supervising principal of colored schools in Richmond, Ky., from 1907 to 1912; supervisor of colored schools at Muskegue, Okla., six years, 1912 to 1918; supervisor of the Normal School at Mayesville, S. C., from 1918 to 1922; supervising principal of the Academic and industrial schools at Mayesville, from 1922 to 1923; supervisor of the high school department of Clarke University, Atlanta, Ga., part of 1923 and 1924; principal of Booker T. Washington Junior and Senior high school, Norfolk, Va., from 1924 to 1925. Atro Breaks News Theatro Breaks News The new supervisor of his appointment came from the Afro-American which reached him in his home in Norfolk. This communication reached him before he received the official notification. The appointment of Supervisor Reese becomes effective July 5 and it understood that his position will be that from which Frank M. Russell resigned 29 weeks ago. The position of Supervisor of Colored schools was recommended in the Strayer Survey (but was sidetracked by the board for some time. Finally Frank M. Russell was appalled by the civic clubs and newspapers, who felt that such a step was necessary to bring the local schools up to the standarded of modern city systems. After one year of service, however, Supervisor Russell resigned because of the lack of support said to have outlawed the lack of cooperation given by Superintendent West and the board. Just what the status of the incoming supervisor will be is a matter of speculation. He is to receive a salary of $3,500.

Up the whole series of 14 and have what America's best minds consider a solution of the race problem. My letter to Professor Jerome Dowd brought a rather brief reply. However, I think the public should know his attitude toward race amalgamation. Prof. Dowd is the author of several books dealing with the Negro in America and Africa. His "The Negro Races of Africa." is a very painstaking if unscientific piece of work. Prof. Edward A. Ross considers "Prof. Dowd "one of the greatest living experts on questions" concerning the Negro race. Prof. Dowd as some of the readers of these articles know, is connected with the University of Oklahoma. He does not believe that the Negro and Caucasian races will eventually amalgamate in America, for he answers "no" to my first question. He answers "yes" to my second question but not destructive" to American civilization. He opposes amalgamation "because there is nothing to be gained by the fusion of the Caucasian with any other race." He believes that every race should "still have its hopes with other races" and "learn to respect and help each other." Rand School The Rand School of Social Science has on its teaching staff some of the most scientific and liberal educators in America. It is a school that devotes itself chiefly to research work in the social sciences. A statement therefore, from one of its high officials is of inestimable value. The educational director of this school, Pilar Algernon Lee, wrote me as follows: "1. Ever since the first Negroes were brought to this country, mixture of Caucasian and Negro blood has been going on, chiefly through intercourse of white men, with colored women. "2. I see no reason to doubt that this process will continue. "3. I do not think the white race need be alarmed. Mixing Can't Be Checked "4. I do not know of any way in which I could oppose, or check this historic process. "4. Anthropological research gives no support to the theory that any one race or variety of mankind is inherently inferior to another. "5. The solution of the race problem is to be found in social justice. FREE COUPON INSTANT RELIEF HEADACHES, DIZZINESS, OUSNESS are mostly due to eye muscles. We remedy it remove the cause.

HI School, newly elected Supervisor of Colored Schools in Ealti- nmore. MRS. WHEATLEY HOME FROM LONG TOUR Head of Parents Teachers Association Visited 12 Larger Cities ALL SCHOOLS GROWDED Public Aroused, She Says, Over Need of Better Teachers and Schools Mrs. Laura D. Wheatley, president of the Baltimore Federation of Parent-Teacher Clubs, has returned to the city from a five-week trip to Florida and Cuba. While on her vacation, Mrs. Wheatley made a study of schools in each of the 12 cities she visited. She explained: "Everywhere, I find the public schools overcrowded and the public aroused and concerned about better schools, better teachers and an extension of the hi-school course to full four yeras. Agricultural and industrial schools are also greatly in need of better facilities, including positions quickly as school funds will permit. As the cities become able to provide suitable hi-schools there heeds to be a movement of the missionary and church schools from the larger centers of population to the rural sections, carrying the light of education where its rays have bithered." This will go a long way toward refining and lifting the masses to a higher level. "In Havana, every courtesy was extended to me in the matter of visiting schools. I also enjoyed the rare privilege and pleasure of visiting the President's palace, where I was presented an exquisite bouquet of roses and a pose of pandas." She also witnessed the unveiling of a monument to the Maline by General Pershing and participated in the carnival. Mrs. Wheaty visited and collected views of Charleston, Savannah, Jacksonville, St. Augustine, Daytona, Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, Miami, Long Key, Key West, and Havana, Cuba. Aged Woman Hurt Mrs. Minnie Jenkins, age 70, 507 N. Duncan street, was seriously hurt when she was struck by an auto Sunday. She was crossing Harford avenue, near Atlantic avenue, when she was knocked down by the vehicle. The car was operated by George Ely, white, 311 E. Lafayette avenue, and was the property of the Owen W. Oliver Laundry Co. Ely removed her to the John, Hopkins Hospital, where she was given treatment.

I personally given attention to every matter of an aggrieved nature which has reached my eyes, but have experienced some discouragement when the people most concerned have at the climax of the case exhibited scant concern for the situation, a recent case, which I personally handled, the individual who was shot refused to appear in court and eluded me in the endeavor to locate the witness. I am taking the liberty of stating my views, because I thought that if your readers are interested in the difficulties which beset them, they would better understand the true situation and manifest an interest and accuse me of the cases wherein they are conceived.

School Sanitation Two other features of the Health Week program that is attracting wide interest, are the sanitary surveys to be made in the public schools and the active co-operation* the City Health Department is giving in cleaning up sections of the city being found unsanitary by the committee's surveys. Concerns will visit certain co-operators and put unsanitary conditions, but work to have the conditions remedied. Commissioner W. A.

Today it is perpetuated chiefly upon the ground of color. It is as intense against the educated, the wealthy and the progressive citizen in black as against the most illiterate, the poorest and the least desirable. A premium is placed upon being white and no black man can hope for full citizenship rights. The jobs, the ballot, the homes on clean streets, the sleeping cars are placarded, "for white only." To be safe in America, the Negro must be able to change his skin to conform to America's racial background. The question of his pride of race, his desire to be himself, is not debatable. With or without his consent, legally or illegally the mixing of the blood has gone on until America numbers two million mullattoes. The laboratories of the cultural artists are engaged with formulas designed to straighten hair that is curled, and bleach the skin that is dark. Consciously and unconsciously the black race is becoming white. Whether the white race is becoming black is another matter.

Beyond all this he found the time to champion the cause of humanity. Independent in politics, he worked incessantly for political reform, civil service reform and reforms in the American method of dealing with our dependencies.

Reuter, white, assistant professor of University of Iowa, writes to ask what we "Population Problems," excerpts from the AFRO-AMERICAN of March 14, 1915: Mr. B.

Were me about it? Amalgamation—What We Think "The Negro must live in the atmosphere of contempt and dislike and make such advances as he may, economically, educationally, culturally, in spite of the fact that he makes making an effort to be less tolerant of injustice use and more insistent that he be allowed the rights and opportunities of other members of the society. And every advance that he makes quickens the prejudice of those persons who are convinced of his native inferiority and determined to keep him alone." The problem is to maintain a friendly working relation between the races during such time as may be required for the disappearance of the handicapped prejudice, through the enlightenment of the whites, and the ultimate appearance of the problem through the disappearance of the himself. It is unpleasant to admit with Dr. Reuter that this is so, yet the same situation has been faced by every minority population group since the world began. Frankly, the AFROAMERICAN doesn't want to become white. Well, but what can be done about it?

Mr. Moorfield Storey, white, of Boston has lived a busy life. Today he has passed his eightieth year and the AFROAMICAN joins with the millions of his admirers all over his broad land who thank God that He has raised up such friends of humanity as Mr. Storey. The mantle of the great Massachusetts Senator Charles Sumner, who gave his life in championing the cause of the Negro, descended in time upon Mr. Storey. The result is that for the past fifteen years he has been the president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. No empty honor this, but an opportunity for service. Mr. Storey it was who as chief counsel won a victory for the race before the United States Supreme Court in the disfranchising case, in the Louisville segregation case and in the Elaine riot case. Sometimes next month he will come to Washington for the fourth time to argue the case in which it is hoped the Supreme Court will nullify the new District of Columbia segregation measure and the white primary law in the South. Massachusetts has enshrined in her memory the name of Charles Sumner, Colonel Robert Gould Shaw, Thomas Wentworth Higginson, and William Cullen Bryant. As high as any today we write the name of Moorfield Storey, lawyer, statesman and friend of humanity. Virginia "Acts Up" Again a clean record for the past 15 months, traced its name on the Lynching record of some 2,000 persons went on a South Norfolk. During the "festivities" the criminal, filled his dead body with bullets to burn, and after mutilating it, carted high three counties in order to prevent his jury. Norlee Trinkle, who investigated the case of the lynching is quoted as follows: "Live at our command. The entire forces of the militia command are hour's notice. Insure that the law is. Officers charged, with enforcement of the law, the sentiment of the whole people and not be as easy it is to lock the stable door after the door. Where was Governor Trinkle during bands of armed men with bloodhounds?" After a clean record for the past 15 months, the State of Virginia placed its name on the Lynching record last week. A mob of some 2,000 persons went on a Southern picnic just outside Norfolk. During the "festivities" they hanged an alleged criminal, filled his dead body with bullets, threw an on fire to burn, and after mutilating it, carted it 2 miles away through three counties in order to prevent any action by a coroner's jury. Governor Lee Trinkle, who investigated the case at first hand, after the Lynching is quoted as follows: "We have at our command the force of the militia. They can be summoned at an hour's notice to insure that the law be given due course. Officers charge the involvement of the law must be beaten if the whole people and must not be defiled and threatened as I understand was the case here last night." How easy it is to lock the stable door after the horse has been stolen. Where was Governor Trinkle during the three days when bands of armed men with bloodhounds sought the victim they were later to lynch? If it only took an hour to summon the militia, why weren't Governor Trinkle and his subordinates active? Was it because the governor was off on one of his tours of the State speaking at colored churches on the "progress of the race," as he has been doing frequently of late. When the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill was before the last Congress and the question of making lynching a Federal offense was discussed, the most violent dissenters were Governor Trinkle, and Senator Carter Glass of the same State. Every Virginia Congressman voted "no". Governor Trinkle's argument that the individual State can prevent lynchings by the use of State-militia has received severe jolt. There still remains his argument that the individual States can bring lynchers to trial and punish them in State courts. Can he make good on it or was he talking thru his hat?

Representative Sol Bloom, of the Boston this District, was in Washington Saturday making a proposition to donate half a dozen of whiskey to any parties who would get it out of the warehouse without adult costs to the owners. This pre-war Wm. X. Jones whiskey is of good quality and, according to Representative Bloom, elephant on the hands of its owners. They can never hope to drink it up and the Prohibition enforcement unit has it so completely bottled up in their expensive warehouse that they give a way to one can find a way to take it off their hands. According to a writer in Collier's Weekly, export and import in the big country of whiskey has been flowing into this country, show that the volume is decreasing monthly.

The Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments invite our attention. A New Presidential The recent failure of President Coolidge to put over his appointment of Charles W. Warren, as Attorney General, shows that a new congressional thorn in the side may hamper the incoming administration. The LaFollette group was scrapped by the Republican leaders, but enters Borah. There can be no question of the soundness of the polity of the right of the President to select his own cabinet. But there have been also many incidents to show that the power given the Senate to withhold sanction in any given case is not without some wisdom. Now and again such rotten retellations have cropped out among men chosen by our chief executives, that certain limitations are necessary. The public has not forgotten the Tempot Dome case and other scandals. But the chief interest comes in the possible control of Senate legislation by a few members, who, by virtue of the close party vote, hold the balance of power. The really important men in that body, seem not to be those who train willingly with the dominant parties, but those who represent the progressive ten- The fact is, the Republican and Democratic parties are so much alike in control and policies, that the spirit of opposition must be looked for outside the party. Of course, but this opposition has to merely with who is to be in or out. There is virtually no difference in fundamentals. They both are boss-ridden organizations and to a great extent to the same type of bosses. Human-Tragedies And Crime The bulk of the human race is still motivated by fear.

The young lady really "stepped out" and the audience went wild over her. However, the audience did not lose its head to the extent that it did not "smoke" back. After the performance was over when the audience came from under magic mage sites, began the Sister she annexed to do just what she annexed the dry of goods. The consensus of opinion was she did not get it in Philadelphia, as the City Council had agreed to fection to disguise one of its daughters like that. Camden was finally lead up as the birthplace of the creature the frock had all the earmarks of "Pugnia" stamped upon it. It is hoped Miss Anderson will spend the rest of her life as she is too nice looking a girl to be doublecrossed by a dressmaker. Fate, Time And Fate is sometimes known as cruel fate, but Fate is not always cruel. The fact is fate has something on us mortals in that it can see around a building down the street or behind us, therefore we never know when an accident is going to come out of the next cross street. Some few years ago a judge told League a good turn against the will of many. However, as Judges think, time is a great thing. It was in Philadelphia, where the league was meeting the natureless League, was meeting that year. Naturally, officers had to be elected, as all evil-minded people believe somebody must be in a position to job the treasury. Anyhow, that judge told League that he had a fight on his hands. Some of the insurgents wanted to pull him out of his presidential chair and seat someone else there. It was claimed he was only an educator and that he did so to make a business man president of the League. Philadelphia being the home of the judge, and he at that time being a very important business man, his name was suggested in the connection of president.

A campaign fund was extracted from somewhere and a few spellbinders were set to work to elect Mr. Brown and to eject Mr. Moton. Moton Carries On Just here is where fate stepped in. For some unknown reason, at the last minute, Mr. Brown and Moton compromised in order that it was when it all came down from Duke was still resting in the chair. Now, at this late date, some years after the little incident, some of the members of the League were engaged to not to have a business man at the head of the League. Not that the failure of the bank would hurt the business of the League in the League or the League in the business of the business of the race would have been upset to such an extent it would have been impossible for the League to meet this challenge. With no Business League on in August many of the farmers would not have a chance to recommend themselves to the League, the world and anybody else who wants to hear If Mr. Brown was president, because of the crush, the League would have to take this from Sails Drawback: "Last year I raised nine bushels of potatoes, bought anchovies and what $49 in the bank.

Be it far from me to say that there was nothing done anywhere. The only thing I can look at is the results. Two young ladies passed. One was from Morgan and the other hailed from Minor Normal, of Washinton. Both ladies seem to be very well satisfied, but the rest of the gang is sending up an awful "swunk." They say the examination was on schedule, but they were substantiated by one of the teachers in the Training School, who says, or is alleged to have said, she could not have passed it her way. There were some of the parents of the also rats have taken up the ended, but this only shows bad form. The last part of the gang, however, goes on record with the phoniest argument on record. Some seven or eight of them agree that an examination is not a fair test of one's knowledge. They claim a person can become so unnerved by the fact that the "Exam" is on that they are subject to forget all they know. However, so far no one has known of any of the teachers getting so unnerved that they could not receive that pay envelope. But be of good cheer, girls, for the counties have claimed they have always had a hard time geeting good teachers. These county jobs are good; too, for more than one reason.

Kelly Miller Says Kelly Miller Says The $25,000 contributed by Madam Lelia Walker marks a high record in the history of the Negro's contribution to his educational advancement No one wishes to encourage a race of everlasting recipients. After all, the only help that is worth while is the help which helps the helpless to help themselves. Unless the Negro shows a disposition towards self-support, the race will soon be regarded as not being worth encouraging. The Hampton-Tuskegee Drive is on. Every well-informed citizen by this time is acquainted with its purpose and mission. These two schools of practical learning appeal to the imagination of the American people as no other institution has done. The engrossed philanthropist attention for more than a generation. Money has flowed into their coffers up to the full measure. Planned in the midst of the people to be benefited, just after the war, Hampton furnished the first aid to the needy. Tuskegee Drive is the mother of her distinguished mother. Both of these institutions were built around the lives of ill-illustrated men. Wang and Washington are names that take high rank in the history of American education. In striving to meet the educational needs of the educationally deprived educational program of America. Charles Chapman Armstrong and John D. Rockefeller were born in the same year. 1838. Armstrong devoted his life to service. Rockefeller focussed his powers upon the accumulation of silver and gold. They both reached the pinnacle in their, respective fields of endeavour, by their paths meet in the field of Negro education. The institution which Armstrong built up with the help of millions. The Rockefeller fortune through the General Education Board donated the first million to the Hampton Tuskegee Drive. Indeed it is no secret of history that John D. Rockefeller, son of Hampton and father of Tuskegee, first induced Mr. Rockefeller to make the initial donation out of which grew the General Education Board which has so great importance the educational role of the nation. Mr. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., has contributed a million dollars to this united effort to help the poor, to that neither he nor his illustrious father ever made a donation that gave them greater satisfaction out of the half billion dollars which their generosity has given to human benefaction. Balance Assured An additional million and a half dollars have already been raised, bringing the total amount secured up to date to over three and a half million of dollars. In addition to this, Mr. Eastman has made a conditional gift of at least two million dollars, provided the five million dollars he has contributed. There still remains less than one and a half million to be secured in order to assure a sum of Fifty bankers of New York have formed themselves into a committee to see that the required amount is secured. The deed is as good as done. The committee, it is done. This represents the most gigantic philanthropic enterprise ever launched in the history of Negro education. It indicates that the bankers of philanthropy which for some years past we had begun to feel was being neglected. Of late there has been an encouraging revival of interest in the higher education of the state in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, Missouri, and Oklahoma have been abundantly provided for by State appropriations to give-better consideration to Negro College colleges than they received in past years. Becoming increasingly more liberal to Howard University, Wilberforce University has greatly increased its facilities. Fisk has also made a major contribution to the Maryborough Medical School has secured a like foundation. Biddle University has shared to the extent of two million dollars to G. Duke, in addition to the large contributions of Mrs. Johnson C. Smith, whose name it has adopted, and now come New York and Tuskegee universities with the million dollar endowment as the crowning achievement in the realm of higher Negro education. There is every reason to believe that every work it seems likely that every worth while Negro school of higher learning- will be put on by personnel and enduring philanthropy of the nation. During the days of Booker T. Washington there raged among the colored controversialists a bitter issue over the relative claims of higher and indoctrinatory partisans aligned themselves into hostile camps and would not so much as heed a flag of truce. Each seemed bent upon the destruction of the nation. During all of this controversy I maintained an equifoil of judgment and attitude. I was then, as I am now, wholly unable to see any position that would be adapted to different needs, circumstances and conditions. I have always looked upon the education of the Negro as an integral program, necessary to the success of what helps one all. The whole is greater than any of its parts, and equal to the sum of all of its parts, has been and is my educational axiom. Why build up Hampton at the ex-communist center? Fisk to the discredit of Tuckerberg. The Negro race needs all kinds and types of education. The folly of the controversy is all the more ridiculous because it is the Negro's responsibility. Negro education for the present at least is under philanthropic support. The race is the thankful benefactor for what is often called the "black underdog," to underside the philanthropist to support. But we are all now beginning to see that the several forms of education are but complimentary parts of the Negro race. The philanthropists who support one type of education today, will support another, type tomorrow; according to the shifting requirements of *x*-development. Rockefeller and Balance Assured Revival led by Madam Lelia Walker the history of the Negro's con- l advancement courage a race of everlasting only help that is worth while helpless to help themselves. vs a disposition towards self- be regarded as not being Tuskegee To Become Center Hampton has already become a college in the upper reaches of its work. The courses leading to degrees in agriculture and education are fully abreast the collegiate standard requirements assurance of fore-knowledge, that Tuskegee is destined to become the great center of medical and health education. In Veterans Hospital of a thousand beds easily suggests this consummation. The race has a crying. I had almost said a dying need of a great medical school located there to serve a population containing shout that polite. The words of Mr. John·D. Rockefeller, Jr., in the letter accompanying his approval of the work and writing, his approval of the benefited institutions was attributable to the advantage to their students of the benefits entered immediately upon the vocations of life or to still further pursue higher line of education. This shows a broad comprehension of the importance to anarchy and not limit itself to a narrow lines of educational policy. Negro Philanthropists Hampton and Tuskegee have been built up and maintained all but wholly by white Northern philanthropists, by blacks Northern philanthropists, by whites of Christian benevolence that our civilization affords. The benefitted race has merely stretched* forth its hands and partaken of the tree of knowledge, watered by the stream of philanthropy that flows from the North. But the time has now come when the Negro should be beginning to think in terms of the past. The $25,000 contributed by Madam Lelia Walker marks a high record in the history of the Negro's contribution to this educational advancement. It is the result of philanthropists to continue in their benefactions and encourages new ones to enter the field. No one wishes to encourage others to enter the field. After the only help that is worth while is the help which helps the helpless to help themselves. Unless the Negro shows a disposition towards self-support, the race will soon become as not being worth encouraging. The committees in charge of the Hampton-Tuskegee Drive make appraisals and join in this great enterprise for the uplift and betterment of their race. Of course the sum total of their contributions will not be great when measured in terms piled up by the municipal doners. But every dollar contributed by a donor is counted and a weight a thousand fold greater than its intrinsic value. It means that the Negro is grateful for the great benefits which these philanthropists provide to the race and is determined to help as far as he is able in the same direction. It is also able to say that each earnest donor will redraw a thousand fold to its own advantage. I have been asked by President Taft to commit the Tuskegee Drive among the colored citizens of the District of Columbia. I deem it a privilege and a duty to join in this great enterprise in the midst of a multitude of drives. I have always made it a point to contribute according to my ability to all permanent foundations of Negro education. I have contributed to the University Medical College, to the Mchenry Medical College foundation, to the Morgan College endowment fund, to the Howard University Medical and Theological drives, and now to the Hampton-Taukeegle drive. My contributions are all small but my nature of the circumstances. But they measure intention and purpose. We are all being driven to death for one good cause or another. But like all other good undertakings, the more the merrier. Many people who have been involved in one good cause not contributing to one institution because they are obligated to another. The pretext is flimsy; the doxus have lost its cunning. We are upon every Negro in the land, of whatever school of opinion or shade of educational belief, to contribute to the Hampton-Tuskegee Fund. Obligation to some other work is not a failure to respond to this broad appeal. This endowment will endure as long as our social fabric lasts. Tuskegee and Hampton upon the bases of these endowments will be all time to come. Contributions these foundation will bring to the Negro compound benefits as the years of the future shall roll. I feel that every Negro should add his mite to the philanthropist millions. MEM'RY LANE By Wm. F. Griffin, Philadelphia.

I'ma Bonehead Speaking of boneheads, I am it: I make cottage cheese frequently, and have a habit of tying the sack with the cheese in it over the faucet in the kitchen sink to drain out the whey. One day I was making jelly, and had a big pot of apples stewed and ready to pour off the juice. I got a sack, poured in the apples, and proceeded to tie the sack over the faucet as I had been doing with the cheese. Of course, all my lovely juice ran into the sink, and I had only a sack full of pulp left for jelly. Willing To Wait For Heaven "Tubby wanted 15 cents to go to a movie."

Price 50 Cents HOME EDUCATION A WORD from Clairman Brewater Peter told his story in some such way as this: He had a bad pop-guns; you know, the kind that shoot water. They sure did work well. We stood on the street and watched the water they went by. One swell car came along with a millionaire in it, and I caught him straight in the eye of the water. He was car and jumped out. You set I ran: Down the street, round the corner, the chase ether. I dugged into a yard and saw an empty can; in I jumped and saw a right sight. He stopped right by that can and asked a asked aeller where it was. Theeller didn't ask. My how, I shook: He told that feller that I just tell my father about this before he heard of it from him, or I'd get some- He didn't find me, Golly: but I was glad when he went back to his car. "I thought a lot about this thing. I didn't like to tell my father, but if I'd got to, I thought I'd have my supper first. Then, I was afraid every minute that the man would call up on the phone, so I told the whole thing. You oughta heard what my father said. Oh, boy! It was awful! I wished he'd joked me instead Of course, I had to go to bed, and he took the pop-gun (he's got it yet) and, worst of all, the man never told." A few weeks later, Peter's mother told me briefly what the boy's father had said to him. After shaming him for doing such a small, mean thing he had added, "Now think, what if you had injured that man's eye and had made him blind for life, never able to see anything. Think how I would feel to have a son who could do such a thing." As you see, the punishment was effective. Doubtless the child was aware of the absurd and knew where the boy was. I hope he may chance on this article and be well as well. As for the attitude of the parents, how much more can be done through education is presented to him with vivid truth, than through physical force, forceful action, in the latter case the parent is placing himself on the child's level of development to live up to the power of fine self-control on the part of an adult should be, at least as an ambition to attain. Helpful Hints Convenient Clothesline for Winter. Did you ever try putting clothes on the back porch to the clothes pole in the back of the yard? All the clothes may be being up on the porch, but you are avoiding the hot sun in summer and the damp and snow of winter. If porch is wet, it will be moist and no props are necessary. How to Water your Plants After much experience I am convinced that the most important thing in keeping plants moist is root and not the top soil that needs moisture. Use soft water if possible, and keep it near the root to water an established root bound plant is from the bottom. Set the soil till moisture is visible near the top, but do not let the soil become moist on top before letting out water. A plant that watered will not need water for four or five days or longer, does not get it watered, and does not crust. This helps to retain the moisture and lets in the air. Never let a bloom of water for water as it blooms the filaments. Makes The Old Bus Look Like New A good way to brighten up the an- nals of your office is to put a small expense is to get a small can of floss wax, in paste form. Apply with soft cloth and polish the surface to make it look clean. It takes a hundred per cent better and does not catch the dust. About Soap Dyes In using Sponge dyes, I find I get better results if I melt the soap in the dye container and let it come to a boil. When suffused, immerse it in a warm, intense, moving around for short time. This method is not hard on the hands, as they are not in dye water Embarrassing Moment I returned home late one Saturday evening, evenings before, and undressed in the dark, I laid my coat on a chair and placed my coat on the chair, and placed my various pins and stuck them on a velvet cushion on the dresser, as I burch in the usual hurry and confusion that accompanies a family of aliens living a long prayer at church. I felt a sensation of pins sticking my forearm in my amazement, a coral brooch, two common pins, and three safeties that I had the night before for a pincushion. Courtesy Courtesy is a new word for old time politeness. It is born of a desire to be kind to others, and enables one to make friends and to win customers. Courtesy more than mere politeness manifests a sympathetic interest in the welfare of others. It implies that rare gift of being able to understand and be able to think as the customer thinks, of being able to appreciate the needs of others, she also preaches them. Viewed in the context, courtesy is simply and daily practice of the Golden Rule, and includes within it: it is sympathetic, earnest, sincere. It is one of those prerequisite refinement skills that a person considers person from one who is unkind and inconsiderate. It cannot be purchased, but one may acquire it by acquiring regard for the feelings and interests of others.

HOFFNER'S PHARMACY 225 N. Jonathan Street Hagerstown, Md. B-A-T-O-U-A-L-A Translated from the French and Copyrighted by Thomas Seltzer, New York ```markdown ``` The scene of this novel is laid in Ubanzai-Shari, one of the colonies comprising the French Congo or French Equatorial Africa. The district of Grimari (or Bembe or Kandjia from the two names of the river near what is now the city of Kandjia) is about 120 kilometers east of Krebgebe. This region used to be very rich in rubber and had a large population. It was covered with plantations of every kind and teemed with goats. Seven years have been enough to work complete ruin. Villages have grown newer and larger, the goats and poultry have disappeared, the goats and poultry have been extirminated. As for the natives, they were broken down and were not paid, and were robbed of even the time to sow their crops. They saw disease come and take up its abode then, saw their numbers grow less and saw their numbers grow less and less. CHAPTER I In the course of the night the fire, which it is the custom to kindle even evening, had slowed down of cinders that still retained some heat. The circular火炉 of the hut sweated the light filtered through the evening which served as a door. Under the thatch sounded the steady, delicate rummaging of the white ants, which under the knight's brown earth, and made their way into the branchwork of the low roof, for shelter against the sun and the wet. Outside the cooks crowded. Their coats covered the wiles of the bleeding of the goats for the ewes, with the cackling of the hornbills, and—from farther away on the side of the bleeding of the pombe and the Bembe Rivers—with the hoarse call of the bacouys, monkeys with elongated muzzles like dogs. The light broke. Although heavy with sleep still, Batoula—Batoula the mokoundi, chief of so many villages—was quite conscious of these sounds. He yawned, shivered, and stretched out. He nodded to me he go to sleep again? Should he get up? He did not know. Get up, N'Gakoura! Why get up? He did not even wish to know why. That there were exceedingly complex decisions, complex decisions to make—this he scorned. Now, merely to get up—didn't that require an enormous effort? In itself a perfectly simple decision, so it seemed. So for getting up and working were one and the same thing—at least to the whites. "N'Gakoura!" corrupted somewhat to "N'Gakoura!" and ideas of N'Gakoura come out clearly in the course of the book. —Transistor's note. He was vigorous, strong-limbed, a splendid walker, more than a match for any man in running, wrestling, and hurling the cavillin and the From one end to the other of the vast Dar Banda his prowess had become a legend. Tradition had read in his heart the love in love with his agility and valor in hunting with the glamour of the miraculous. And when Ineu, the moon, rose in the sky, Dar Banda and Langue in their distant villages chanted the valiant deeds of the great moundkouri Batuola to the tom-tom of the Winghas and the discords of the Mbits, Dar Banda and Langue. So work had no terrors for him. Only, in the language of the whites, work took on a very strange meaning. It meant getting tired of the results, it meant trouble, annoyance, suffering, the squandering of health, the pursuit of imaginary ends. The whites! They would do better to go back home, all of them. They would do better to confine their desires to their own households and to the cultivation of their own land. Instead of the requisition of stupid money, life is short. Work is for those who will never understand life. Doing nothing does not degrade the human spirit, it sees things truly it differs from laziness. As for him, Bataoua, until it was proved to the contrary, he would believe that to do nothing yet that surpise to you. To live from day to day, without thought of yesterday or care for the morrow, without looking ahead—that was perfect. Sitting was better than standing, lying down was better than sitting. The mat on which he slept smelled sweetly of dried grass, and was more so than the hide of the killed-killed buffalo. So, instead of lying there with closed eyes dreaming, why not try to go to sleep again? That would give him the chance to only in full soft perfection of his bog (mat). First he would have to revive the fire, few dry twigs and a little straw would do. He blew, cheeks puffed, on the smouldering sparks. The smoke sent up its spirals, pungent, suffocating. There was a crackling, in the place, forth, warm in the place. Now, with his back to the fire, he could just fall asleep again stretched out like a wart-hog, he could just bask in the glow of the fire, he could imitate the pasal with whom he had been living so long. She set an excellent example. She lay there peaceful asleep, her hands on her belly. She uttered gologolo-snored, to speak plainly—with her side to a fire that had also burned down to ashes. She sounded sleep! Sometimes she fumbled at her breasts—wrinkled, fahby breasts like dried tobacco leaves—and scratched herself with long-drawn sighs. Her lips were red, her eyes were tinted. Then she calmed down again and snoring her even snoring. In a nook behind the fagots, raised above the chickens, ducks and goats, slept Djouma, the sorry little yellow creature, could fall on a pile of rubber hakeets. A Story of the French Congo which won the Grand Prix for best Novel in 1922 All that was visible of his emaciated body were his cots, standing straight and then, then tickled by a flea or stung by a tick, he would shake them. Occasionally, without string, he would grow growl hard than Kassigian the favorite yawzer for him. Bataoula, the chichitin, and sometimes, dreaming dog's dreams, he would inveigh against the silence of the room, opening his jaws to snap at the void. Bataoula raised himself and leaned on his elbow. There was no use trying to sleep any more against him. The mist drizzled in through the entrance to the hut. It was cold. He was hungry. And the day was coming on, so could he possibly sleep? And where? Outside in the damp chickets bull-frogs and tree-toads croaked in competition. Inside, in spite of buzz-buzzed. That was because the fire had gone out and there was no smoke to stump them. And though the goats had left at cook-crow, the chickens still were there making a When they thought they had found what they were looking for, they went to the pile of their size and marched around the pile of rubber baskets, serious, important, clumsy, all the while repeating their gestures. In the waddling promenade the weight of their necks pitched them a little forward. Honk-hank, they went to hold council in a corner. Every few moments they cast worried looks at the girls in the park. Suddenly one of them made up its mind. It took five or six steps toward the spot where the daylight showing was coming, and the ground with the wings, so as to rush itself along, made a dash at the entrance, disappeared, with the others followed its example. And now Djouma woke up, the sorry little yellow cur. Not that the noise bothered him. He had been to the noise for many moons. Even when his mother was alive—his masters had eaten her—every morning had brought the same hub- Men and beasts too often had to sleep together under the same roof. He had to make any other arrangement. No help for it. From the very start life had been hard. Djouma had to suffer from the pain that he forgot to bark at each newcomer. He had to suffer ill-treatment from Banguaula and the puples of Yasigunda. The tricky hostility of the goats combined with the scared flutter and fuss of the goats. Now, as a consequence, he was sarly enough. At the least provocation he was all defiance, unless he was white man or the chechia* of a touringout* sent him scampering into The East Indian Hair Grower Will Promote a Full Growth of Hair, will also Restore the Strength, Vitality of Hair.

Allen Takes Over Reins With New Board Of Trustees S11,000 DEFIGIT MET Order Of Dissolution Filed By Insurance Commissioner Withdrawn Reorganizing with a new Board of Trustees and Willard W. Allen as president, the Southern Life Insurance Company, dissolution of which had been asked by insurance commissioner Carville D. Benson, last week, was put on sound pointing again. According to Mr. Benson, the leave of debt in the company's lease fund had been made and the company was again on pointing again. The company was formed 20 years after the late William L. Alexandra, who was succeeded by the late H. Fitzs, in recent years. The company was formed the region of t. H. Jones, who reigned as president last week. Wilbard W. Allen, new Southern president, is grand master of affairs of the estate man. He began his career as collector in the Mutual Bentley Society and afterward was transferred to the Southern Life as a collector. He had given his life to the estate man, which it required much of his time from his real business. Associated with him on the board of trustees will be Joseph P. Evans, the president, Lewis Henson and Isaiah Brown. Statement issued by the company reads: "These men are well-known business men, who have been residents of the region of t. H. Jones, built reputations of beauty, integrity and faithfulness. This body has not every necessary requirement by the State insurance company, absolutely solvent, and respect to meet all demands." As an explanation we will state that there was no evidence whatsoever of fraud in the past management condition that has been entirely overgrown by the prompt action of William W. Allen, Joseph P. Grans, L. Brown, G. H. Jones, Gee, B. Loomis, Louis Gee, Gee, Gee Alfred Nixon and Robert Johnson. The heavy financial demands on the insurance company, due to the annual weather conditions of the past winter, compelled the company to upon its legal reserve fund identify its sick and death claims. For the good of our race we ask our men, woman and child to lend their milk, aid and co-operation; for that reason alone accounted this for the part of the sick famed above. Because Judge James A.

The raid was caused when Frances Fletcher, 523 Ostend street, attempted to cut Bernard Holmes, 45 W. West street, as he was leaving the house. Holmes held her arms to prevent injury to himself.

Statement of Condition Banker's Fire DURHAM, NOR ASS Mortgage Loans on Real Collateral Loans State and Government B Cash ..... Agents' Balances Other Essets ..... Real Estate ..... Total Admitted Ass SPRING IS HERE Saturday, 21, we took a squint at the calendar and realized that Spring was with us again. This is the time of the year when poets get sentimental. in the rhyme bees with knees and blizzar. with lizard. A. It is generally in the Spring when cupid gets a strange hold on your blood pumper and you get the notion that you love. This is a disease that should not be trifled with. Knowing Ralph Matthews that dancers will follow if it is allowed to become chronic we will hand out a tonic in the form of "dios" and don't" for the lovelorn. First, we will enumerate a few don'ts for Jelly Beans. When calling on a dizzy Lizzie, don't swipe all her old man's cigars and then ask him for a match, he might have hobbies in top calling on a girl just because she is engaged to some other brid. You can keep right on going to see her after she gets married and you count out of 10 the ginkgie she murders can't shoot straight anyway. Don't be a mollycoddle, the present day embroidery wearer wants a cave man. When you crash in to warm he soothes the right of Rescue so that tight that whenever he loped into a frill's darling the statue of Hercules crawled down off his pedestal and walked out. A lovelovel article would be incomplete if it did not drop a few hints to the Ritz Closet. So girls, let this soothe you and queer it, so same gay sting you twice. If he makes a date and queers it, run thru your listing and call in a sub. A half a man is better than no man at all if you just want an escort. Make your cake eater go home on the same day he came. Tell him you want a cake. Don't take your best friend's beau, he may not be as good as the one you have already. Lost but not least, don't top for the first stick halfed mutt who binds care as you would in a butt. A gang of breath and breeches is alright to promoise the avenue with, but when you leave your hapiness you want more than a clothes rack. When Spring trips in with all its fragrance even the battle scarred veterans of matrimony are not immune. A common sight to see a bewildered pupa of 12 grown grandchildren trying to flirt with a pretty damself. Wives, don't use your dough roller too freely on your wayward spouse. Blame it on the season if he gets too gay with some other jane. Remember that husbands are like animals, more than that they are trained with kindness that with cruelty. Husbands, try to be as lenient as possible if you come home and hear the back door slam. Remember that it is better to have a wife and a home than to start divorce proceedings and lose both.

Mrs. Ross Favors Married Teachers "I think married women should be allowed to teach, for the reason that they have bad experiences at home, and many times they come right out of school, where they have bad years of training and experience. I think they give up their profession just because they get married" "It is really unfair to them and discouraging to marriemony to have a course for them to play. I think the unmarried women should also be allowed to teach, as she has spent her time in school preparing for the profession and what else is needed for success. I favor of both, the married and single women teaching that are qualified." -Mrs. Jennie Ross, 2047 Division Let Both Teach "My idea of the question is that all women who are qualified to teach should be allowed to teach, whether they have husbands or not, who have husbands working do not always find it easy to live on what their husbands make, and if she is qualified to teach she should be given the opportunity." "Single women should have every avenue open to them if they are qualified. They have their reasons for being single and should be able to work." —Gee Berry, 1232 Littlest street MOTHER SEEKS WORD FROM MISSING SON Asks AFRO to Help Her Locate Boy Who Left For Atlantic City Editor, Aro: "I am writing for help to find my son, who left here on March 2, for Atlantic City, and told me he would write back.

A number of Baltimoreans give their opinion on this much discussed question. Oppose Married Teachers "I think the profession of teaching should be given to the single women rather than the married women, especially those with husbands and hushes. There are so many qualified young women, and teaching is the widest field open to them. I think they should be given the first chance to earn their living after spending years in preparing young women for school. Bands should allow the unmarried young women a chance."—Mrs. Mary West, 901 Park avenue. Give Single Girls a Chance "There are many young unmarried women being turned out of school by the school system, a purpose of teaching. I think it would simply be cruel to rob them of their rightful jobs as teachers. "I admit some of them do not have the experience of the married women and best methods, and in order to have experience must start some time. The married women should depend on their husbands and give the single girls a chance, unless they are qualified to take the place, at the time."—Mrs. Ellen Gleavens, 1815 Eating street.

Page Thirteen URBAN LEAGUE WORK SUMMARIZED TO DATE Executive Secretary Moss Makes Statement at Monthly Meeting HOSPITAL PLANS Revival of Victory Hospital and Housing Plans Out- At the first meeting of the Executive Board after the arrival of the secretary a committee was formed to constitute the constitution for the local Branch of the League. This Constitution has been drawn and adopted. On January 23rd at a meeting of the officers of the Inter-racial Committee, the secretary decided to merge the two organizations in such a way, that the name of the former would be kept while the actual work would be carried out. It was found that the League was better equipped to carry out the program launched by the inter-racial group and that it was best thus to eliminate the applicable work the mighty other occur. Victory Hospital. On January 14th, a committee was appointed by the League to inaugurate a Hospital project. This Committee has reported. In connection with this the secretariat of the League coordinates to many of the leading colored hospitals in the country, in order to collect data on the health of such a project in Baltimore. Public Schools The Secretary has interviewed members of the school board and the city government to give schools of the city and the improvement of conditions where possible. The Secretary has visited the high school and formed contacts with those in charge of each. A great deal of valuable information has been turned over to the Education Committee for further action. Public Health The League has approached the problem of Health in several directions. In cooperation with the Civic League and the Health Department, meetings have been arranged in five of the schools and various health messages delivered. The League is also cooperating in the Health Week Program and in this connection with the Bethlehem Steel Plant; has arranged with the Baltimore Dairy Council for a series of health aids and pictures during the week; and has arranged with Mr. M. C. Campbell of Commerce for that organization's aid in getting health meetings in the plants employing a large number of Negro-Conferences have also been looking toward the stitching of a big athletic shoe before the close of the season. Industry A survey of the industrial situation has been made by a audited questionnaire including the Bethenehe Steel Plant at Sparrows Point. Unfortunately, employment is at a low ebw but employment is good and prosperity. Research The President and the Secretary have been placed upon the Advisory Committee of the Baltimore Summer Industrial Research Group. The conferences have been held with the authorities at Morgan College and Howard University looking toward placing men with that a group already two years old in the center the course. The League has also been asked to advise with the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority on their Vocational Guidance movement here in the city, where they have already been laid before them. Lung Block The Survey of the so called "Lung" Block is progressing satisfactorily. Data on health has been submitted to the Department who also printed the questionnaires which are to be used in the house-to-house canvas to be made by the students from the Sociology class of Dr. Brown or Morgan College. The students will begin on Tuesday. Data on crime has been secured from the files of the Criminal Justice Commission. Over nine hundred questionnaires returned by the school officials of the district have been tabulated. Figures on charitable aid given during the past year have been submitted by the Family Welfare Assn. The Maryland Tuberculosis Association House are cooperating. This Survey is perhaps, the biggest task of the League at the present time. Also the League has aided the Y. M. C. A. in its survey of the formation of social work work Negroes. During the past month the national 'secretary', Mr. Jones, visited us and aside from several private schools, visited the school principals, social workers, and other interested citizens at lunch: talked to the Advisory and Executive Boards of the League and the Secondary Schoolmaster's club.

C Daily Complains School Does Not Give White Visitors Special Seats AMALGAMATION OPPOSED Whites Should Be Sterilized Before Permitting Race Mixture (Writer's Note) The Editor of the Newport News Daily Press suggests that this race should be sterilized before it begins, with the colored race. Pity the Daily Press has not been around America for the past ten years during the second succeeding in America. four, million mudattacks, largely without the consent of the latter. Newport News, Va.—The Daily Press in an editorial said this week in the integrity Of Race. It was taken in a city Friday to form an Anglo-Saxon Club as a part of the State organization. As has been more than once stated, the organization is not unfriendly to A part of its creed is, I believe in the supremacy of the white race in the United States of America, but not the hatreds. But the two who are leading in the movement are abundantly impressed with the necessity of taking every possible precaution to preserve the integrity of Nier is the question of importance to the South alone. In the North, national purposes Since the World War thousands and thousands of thousands of Negroes have gone from the South to the North, the statistics published during the past week show a Negro population of a million in ten industrial centers of the North and West, as Negro Population There is no doubt that the booming more and more north part of the United States, and as North colonies increase, naturally they draw more and more from the south. And yet in all the Northern and Western States, the races in the same schools, and in the District of Columbia, and the States of Connecticut, Illinois, Maine, Michigan, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Washington, Wisconsin and Wyoming, free intermarriage of the races is permit- Right Laws Virginia has a law against mixed schools and our law against higher education. We could be made. We have a law requiring race separation on public transportation. We can keep the races pretty well segregated in the residential districts. But power influences the influence of the State in the Southern States as well as in the Northern States, to wipe out the gay line because schools once押出 equality. Amalgamation Uldmace "And the ultimate aim of that movement is amalgamation, absorption of the Negro race into the cherished amalgam of the Negro race—to use the Anglo-Saxon race to rid the Negro race of objectionable features, to have been sold of the Negro race that it is trying to 'find itself'. The task is trying to lose itself in the Anglo-Saxon race. The race has made wondrous achievement since the shackles of slavery were removed, and every Negro has come to be justifiable as a victim of the Negro who offended race; disadjusted mainly by its physical characteristics, and the Negro would be satisfied if he not desire to put himself in the new freedom. Hart School In State We say that powerful influences to wipe out rural distinctions and give the Negro initiative of his ambitions. Here he is in his hibernation in his hibernation here where the first permanent white man's settlement makes there is an institution which teaches and practices sojourn in the Negro races. And the nearest institution in Virginia and money by the million is flowing into the investment fund in the teacher William and Mary College in Virginia William and Mary College or any other state institution of learning. It has the finest library in this section of Virginia. It has the finest pipe organ in the country can buy, and it has a common auditorium, where the highest levels of entertainment are served the entertainment so costly that they aid them. Frequently Patronized These entertainments are freely patronized by white men and women who sit by side with the Negro in the midstumption. To the women of the institution, other Negroes residing in Hampton and Virginia. There is a pretense of separating the races in the midstumption. To the women of the institution, that if they attend the entertainments that must come on the same terms as the Negroes, and no distinctions made. To make such distinctions obviously, the institution which teaches racial equality. Moreover, it is clearly in furtherance of that policy to have the whites of old Dominion turn, away from the institution in the midstumption of a Negro school. All Well Behaved "This institution trains its students well in morals, manners and handcraft and there is not a better behaved of students in the United States, than in the United States, where they have been arrested for crime or disorder conduct. And the officers and teachers of the institution are men and women of high character and exquisite hands. But our students are taught with this article is designed to point out, and there is a still greater danger in the public schools. In most of the Northern, and Western States white and Negro students are taught with this same teachers without racial distinction. In some cases, white children are taught by colored teachers. Children of both races are thrown together in the classroom. They play together, they become "pale." and why not "sweethearts?" That sort of association is apt to break down, racial distinctions eventually, and antagulation would follow as a consequence. **Law Against Mixed Schools** In the South we have a law against mixed schools, but practically all the children, white and colored, go to the public schools, are educated in much the same way and taught out of the same schools, and race meet on their way to and from school and in some instances play together, and the white children grow up with very different sentiments that may not say insults? from the perspective of the person who is grover is a very different being from the Negro of other generations, and contact between white and Negro children will tend more and more to break down lines. And that is what the present generation of whites must guard against, as they would guard against disease and pestilence, for the very same as the Sexon race in America is at stake. No Bad Blood "Is the Dairy? Press trying to stir up bad blood? I don't. The Daily Mail blood; to grouse the Anglo-Saxon to the danger which threatens the Anglo-Saxon race. The Anglo-Saxon race has allied with any colored race, for in so doing it would destroy itself; it will commit suicide and, as Representative of the People of life is a trust, Amalgamation would mean the destruction of the Anglo-Saxon race in America and the rest of the world. Rather than that should be we would prefer that every white child in the United States were sterilized and the Anglo-Saxon race left to perish in the BOANOKE, VA. Roanoke.

Junius Gray, who is helping to complete plans for this man- meeting. Governor Ritchie, Mayor Jackson, the Chamber of Commerce, many large business houses and local white Baptists are co-organized and are unprecedented in the history of national gatherings. All of the local Baptist churches accept one are invited to participate, and we believe that one will not remain isolated. Large Constituency There are more than 30,000 Baptists in Baltimore. Included in list of choir members are Macedonia, Morning Star, First Baptist, Faith, Metropolitan, Enon, Trinity, Metropolitan, Perkins Square, Psalmist, Ebenezer, Perkins Square, Wayland, Mt. Sinai, Mt. Harum, Israelis Nos. 1 and 2, Mt. Joy, Calvary, Pentecost and From these churches an entertainment committee headed Rev. Junius Green, who was selected have been in touch with the national body for some time are the Revs. A. J. Greene, M. D. Wiley, H. H. Gray, G. Garnett, J. H. Green and Dr. Winston. It is estimated that between $500 and $600 delegates will spend $250,000 and be during the session. In Factional Fight Although the local Baptists are practically united, rumblings in national circles hobbed up here recently Dr. W. Alexander, representing the National Baptist Convention, Inc., spoke before local ministers. At this meeting the body voted to join forces with the coming session. Salad W. Alexander, the late pastor of Sharon Baptist Church, was the first corresponding secretary, and leading spirit in the Lott Carey Convention. He was a graduate of Yale University. He has been a very busy man since being in our city, as probaion officer, in addition to the pastor of Sharon, which has no new active mate much to the national question of our denomination. But after having Dr. Moses spend several days with his church, he asked for an explanation of the reason aues in a man, Dr. W. Alexander, has been the most enthusiastic boosters of our National Baptist Convention in the City of Baltimore. "It it seems to me that the more meeting the national Benting meeting will witness the protection out of the Boyd and Woods Convention. The boards they attempted to organize have now unified the Foreign Board finally surmounted all attempt to exist as a National board by giving their constituents to the Lott Carey Convention. The Boyd convention is incorporated and cannot property. "The Boyd publishing board is self perpetuating and is not subject to any Convention." The Boyd convention is supported by the Southern White Baptists, Northern White Baptists, World's Baptist Alliance, nor the American Council of Federated Churches. Informed as the churches become informed in this section of the country, they are repudiating the very idea of the other Convention attempting to get a foot-hold in the East. "I was in Washington last week, and Ds. Jerignin, Norman, Howard, Keyser and others tell us that the National Capitol will represent the National Baptist Convention Board." "Everything is setting pretty for a great united National Baptist family, a completed publishing house, paid for by the people." Plan $85,000 Church Oklahoma City, Okla. — Avery Chapel A. M. E.

GROUP Tells Maryland University Students They Should Study Best of Race That white students lack the most valuable knowledge and best abilities of college men and women, and that criminals have a more open channel of impressing the white world than those in other surroundings, were among statements made by William Pickens, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., to the student body of the University of Maryland in a courtroom. Unstinted aplause greeted the speaker from hundreds of young white men who were listening for the response of Negro in their assembly room, when he pointed out that an unnatural racial antagonism had served to divide the very groups in the two races that should work best together. "Judges and police meet the criminal element in close contact; the best families of the whites know the risks to the American standard of living, acquires a modern home of culture and refinement; achieves distinction in science or art, he automatically passes out of the bounds of this same class in the white race." He urged the student body to study and make contact with the best achievement of the race to the end, that together might collaborate with two high ideals of American democracy.

Aside from the fact that Colonel Swezey has been the subject of much local discussion, he is personable, kind, and generous of men and women who have been inmates of the prison, but by colored citizens, who have been attracted by his humane prison philosophy, he will likely on some phases of prison reform. Was Democratic Warden Just how democratic and fair in the treatment of colored prisoners Colonel Sweezy was during his adjourn to the court, it is not that when the prisoners presented a petition recently to have the prisoners be man selected by both white and colored prisoners to make the presentation.

EARLY HISTORY Under the dome of a tropical sky, in a land where perpetual summers measure 240 degrees, intermittently deep and shallow streams run races, the boiling waters of the ocean, the graduation in height, follow each other in rapid succession, the farthest hinterland boundary, and beginning at the great bend in the confluence of the largest and lowest of Guinea, the largest indentation on the Great West Coast. Has verdure, clad Liberia, the lakes of the Amazon, the vast swamp of Negro republic in all the world, Struggling, after a fashion, the failure of the proposed $5,000,000 Loan to the republic by the government of Liberia, the creation of a wide-spread interest in Liberia on the part of colored peoples everywhere, for awakening them to the feeling of kinship that is being translated into action, "farest down." Robert-Findley The founding of Liberia was conceived in the mind of the Reverend Robert Findley, of Princeton, New Jersey. In the year 1816 he and others formed the American Society, the name of which was changed to the American Colonization Society a year later. The society had as its prime object the securing of a home for freedmen without the bounds of United States territory. Undoubtedly the notion of Paul Cuff, a colored man born in New Bedford, Mass., in stimulating the formation and efforts of the Colonization Society, for in 1815, a year before its organization, Cuff, with his own ship and at his own expense, carried some 20 or more of his fellow racemen to Sierra Leone, a British colony to the northwest of Liberia. Cronization Society The American Colonization Society has been the country's leading citizens of the day, and among its vice-presidents was the founder, John Quincy Adams, nominated and distinct elements seem to law-compose the society—one that seeks only the good of a very deserving class of the colored people, whose status is defined; while the other element sought to rid the country of an element that was the situation of slavery, which was to the Southern section of America, "meat and blood" of the leading Negroes of intelligence of that day assailed the society and its policy with tremendous effect, the ridding of the country of the free, thinking Negro and thus render the jastification of slavery Old Father Snowden, a Negro preacher of great power, presides over a meeting through with the fery darts of truth, as the whole is between the sword darts of Society went forward with its pins and put "swarfish" in his mouth to "swarfish" in Sheboar岛 is off the coast of Sierra Leone. But this society being exceedingly numerous, late in 1821, "Captain Stockton and Dr. Eli Alpgen in secure a more healthy site. On February 7, 1822, these men, with some geowomen which they brought with them from the States landed on the coast of the Mississippi, the mouth of the Mesurado River, just across the stream from Cape Mesurado, the Capital City of Monroe, New York. Many Hardships The history of the hardships that these pioneers underwent—hardships due to ignorance and poverty—is not surpassed in all the annals of colonization schemes, liberty and opportunity for self-determination, and opportunity for self-determination of people. And the remark of kildjah Johnson, one of the few survivors of the war, is that the years of these hardships had so greatly reduced the number of colonists, unaccompanied and adrift, those remaining that the Society's white agent in charge of the colony acted as a copilot and recommended the return of the people to American society as a place in the same jewel caset that of a place in the same jewel caset that of a times when no remarks of men of all times whosoever mined the fate of groups and nations. Johnson's Reply "Here we are and here we will remain," was Johnson's reply to the suggestion that he was not the slightest but that this heroe expression by a man of iron will make permanent this colonization experiment, and that it will be the same sent day Liberius, enabling them to sling with vigor and enthusiasm their best national anthem, "All Hail, Liberius!" U. GEOGRAPHY Liberia, like most countries of the West African Coast, has no natural harbor. True, there are many river openings to the sea, but in every case these are great drawbacks to the rapid handling of cargo, and necessitating the small boats and passengers and freight to the Atlantic ocean about Liberia. The sea is quite dangerous, making the trip to or from Liberia often a dreadful experience. It sometimes happens that the sea is so rough that passengers have to ship in a "mummy chair," a contraction about the size of, and very much roosquelling the charm of a merry-go-round. This is let down to the small boat by the ship, the charter, and in few seconds is shot through the air and landed safe. Amagine New Discovery Mrs. B. Washington 902 DRUID-HILL AVE.

The area of Liberia at the present time is about 100,000 square miles of desirable territory sliced off by her two powerful thousand square miles of desirable somewhat greater than that of our own State of Indiana. We have a coast line of some 150 miles, on which guard out prominently three headlands like giant sentinels, and on the other side a great way from the Anglo-Liberian boundary, more than a thousand feet three hundred feet high, and Cape Palmas, at the southeastern extremity of the three hundred feet high, and Cape Masurado, only slightly lower than Cape Masurado. Rivera The rivers of Liberia are quite numerous, but their semi-collaged mouths can be seen in the canals made them unsuited to the needs of commerce, except for very small. However, a little engineering work could readily remedy these defects. The rivers of Liberia flow in a stream of great beauty, and has, along its banks the greater number of the rivers of the Saint Paul there were many huge phantasms that made comfortable for travel of that period. But today most of these farms are abandoned or only indulfer from the coast a succession of hills carrying heights is met with. The French colony is approached in the sanctionless district forty-seven of these hills appear. They are the ones that are exceedingly narrow. One climbs them with great difficulty. Steps have been made to facilitate footing sealing them. There are also several mountain ranges having peaks of considerable height. These groups are among the best known. Kinds of Soil Liberia possesses many different kinds of soil. Along the river, there are a few feet back a heavier and richer soil abounds, so that the forest in the area is well-suited to its seaside. Clays for the making of bricks and pottery are quite abundant. The grade, gneis, granite, and other mineral rocks are met with the same kind of soil, and seems to be abundant, although it is not scientifically or extensively mined. The mineral wealth of Liberia, since there have been no geological surveys of the area, has been observed casually made in passing through much of the interior give rise to as high as her agricultural. III CLIMATE By the climate of a country we usually mean the average weather conditions which prevail. The weather itself is really the condition of the atmosphere with respect to temperature, air pressure, wind and rainfall. At the bottom of climate will be found a high point of influence, such as the elevation, heath factors, such as elevation, heathiness to bodies of water, the presence of mountains, etc., have a modifying effect upon climate. Now Li-neria is in the Tropics, that is, between altitudes 232 degrees north and 232 degrees south so that twice during the year it has the direct rays of the sun, while at all other times these rays are never so oblique as in our own country. Consequently it is very warm throughout the year, though because of the modifying conditions already referred to, the thermometer does not play the pranks that it often plays over here by running up to 110 and the like in the shade during our hot spells.

High Death Rate The climate of Liberia has long been regarded as a dangerous death rate that has obtained seems to justify this opinion. The principal reason for so many deaths and so much incapacitation among foreigners especially, is that the country is still years to be but an aggravated form of our own malaria, long prevalent in the southern section of the country, an estuary from having this malaria, although it does not cause any notice and need not by any means prove fatal.

The Board of Aldermen in canvassing the vote declared Smith the victor by a slight margin and he proceeded to serve the balance of the term until December 31, 1923, when the appealé court decided that Harris, the Republican candidate, had been improperly ousted from his seat. Harris sued for $1500, the salary received by Smith during the period that he held office.

Very Sensitive The America-Liberiana might be described in a single sentence as an intelligent, warm-hearted, pleasure-seeking, and critical criticism that is not favorable. This condition has its genesis in Liberia's being a slave state and the almost total absence of public press. No newspapers. There is not now a single newspaper in Liberia, and its existence is probably due to the high cost of publication, and as there is little advertising patronage a copy of a newspaper is never published. Nevertheless news travels very rapidly throughout Liberia, especially in the most prominent, prominent, Papers and magazines from abroad are read with a relish, and the newspapers that is most commendable.

There are many groups of Africans, and, as already stated, differ widely in their diet. The principal food of many and casada, caravana, of others.

Mrs. Vilney: The trouble is, Judge he's the most "movingest" man I ever saw. Even the insurance man cannot keep up with him. The Judge: Why does he move so much? Jr. Winey: He tries to lose himself from me. I guess, so he won't have to support me. The Judge: What about it Vilney? Mr. Cliney: Well, Your Honor, I do the best I can. Mrs. Vilney: Judge, it was not long after he led me to the altar that I had to lead him into court to get support. We have three children and he does not give me a caer.

Guilty Of The Least; Guilty Of The Whole It sometimes looks suspicious to see a man carrying coal at night, especially when he wends his way through alleys in an effort to be seen as little as possible. It was just such circumstances as this that brought Walter Combs, age 19. 1815 Bayard street, into the Southwestern police station Tuesday morning. Combs had been leaving the Herbertson Coal Yard, and the Herbertson streets, with a bag of coal on his back. He was taken to the station house for an investigation. On questioning, the authorities, it was learned, found that four similar bags had been missing on as many different occasions. Combs found it quite difficult to explain how he happened to have the coal in his possession, but he was certain that he knew how the other bags disappeared. "Judge," he said, "this is the only bag I know anything about." "The judge thought that Combs knew more than he was willing to tell, so he informed him that if he did not get the other man was going to be charged with stealing all four when he faced the grand jury. Fleet's Oratory Failed "Ten days in jail," thundered the judge, in the "Domestic Relations Court, and Andrew Fleet was nearly swept off his feet with surprise. Andrew thought he was going to be dismissed. In doing drastic must have caused this sudden decision on the part of the judge, late comers were heard to remark. It did. Andrew hadn't given his wife, Mrs. Lottie Fleet, any money since Christmas. Of course, the judge didn't sentence him for the murder, but he failed to provide any money, yet he raised a lot of disturbance when she didn't prepare the choicest food for him to devour. "That's the main trouble," declared Mr. Fleet. "That man has the most hardy appetite. He orders me to get up in the middle of the night to eat. And if I don't do it he starts a fight," she added significantly. When she had finished Fleet took the stand, cleared his throat haughtily and began to explain. He made sure he was heard in the courtroom with his eloquence, told of his misfortunes, then ended abruptly and stood back to see what effect his discourse had on His Honor. He did not have to wait long, the judge without raising his head from his papers said, "Ten days." It was evident that there had been several changes made, when Mr. and Mrs. George Laws faced His Honor in the Domestic Relations Court last Friday morning. "Judge, that man just left me and the children," said Mrs. Laws. "Judge, she left me," exploded the irate husband. "And I want than this; while I am willing to support my children," snapped Laws. "I don't intend to have anything else to do with that woman." "If that is satisfactory to the madam, I will dismiss you on these grounds," responded His Honor.
