Dodd Denies Pastor's Right To Oust Him Without Charges HOLDS ON TO POST Will Safeguard Church's Funds Until Conference, He Declares Members of the Steward's Board absented themselves from an official board meeting called at Bethel A. M. E. Church Monday night. Their action is interpreted as defiance of the pastor, the Rev. Frederick Douglass who has suspended one of their members. Absence of the Stewards left only the class leaders on the official board, who it is believed are powerless to elect a successor to the suspended member. That stuff in Eccleston has not yet come to an end is evidenced by the pressed activities of the two dominant factions. The group of petitioners, which, it is said, has headquarters at the home of a Mosher street member, still working feverishly to add new names to their petition for the mayor and members and are constantly being buttoned for their signatures. The opposition of this scheme appears to have centered its energies around the defense of William H. Dodd, the suspended governor of the Board of Securities and whose signature to weeks for the pastor's salary and the various conference clams is necessary to make them valid. Dodd Acting In the possession of Dodd is still acting in the usual capacities and has paid absolutely no attention to the pastor's order. Mutual friends of Mr. Dodd and the pastor have endeavored in vain to bring about a reconciliation. Scorses Back Dodd Scorses have called at his home or over the telephone and assured him or their full support. One of these who has known him for thirty years, said: "There is a general conviction that Dodd is thoroughly convinced of the convictions, even though at times he may express himself in a crude manner." In an interview this week, Mr. Dodd said: "The matter between the pastor and myself is in no way different. I am a great believer at stake. It is whether a church official who has been duly appointed by the pastor and confirmed by his quarterly conference can be summarily suspended because the membership and public under the impression that he has done something awful.

Varieties of intermarriage may be found in the highest social pinnacles, where the prejudice against people of Negro extraction ends expression in drawing-room whispers of the black man.

NG WIFE ERED 4,000 VICTIMS OF ALLEGED SWINDLERS California Couple Held On Charge of Using Mail To Defraud Agents says Thousands were Promised Jobs as Pullman Porters Los Angeles, Calif.-After three years of victimizing thousands of colored applicants for prospective positions as Pullman porters and dining car waiters, A. J. Churchill and wife, president and secretary respectively of the "Railway Dining and Sleeping Car Training Service" have been placed under arrest. A secret indictment recently returned by the Federal grand jury charges them with using the maths in a huge scheme to defraud, in connection with an assuredly fraudulent Pullman "mail order" school of international promotion.

It is contended by the Advancement association that under the system of one-party dominance of the Southern States, where elected candidates for office are held, elections in the primaries to debar any class of voters from the primaries is in effect to disfranchise them. The constitutionality of the Texas state and of other similar statuses throughout the South is involved in Lower Court Decision Decision has already been rendered against Dr. Nikon and the El Paso Branch of the Association of National Advancement of the District Court and the case is now being appealed. A statement on the case issued by the Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, says: "All Negroes Barred 'All qualified voters under the laws and constitutions of the United States, the full fide member of the Democratic party, shall be eligible to participate in the election, provided such voter complies with all laws and rules of the state, however, in no event shall a Negro be eligible to participate in a Democratic primary election in the State to Texas and should a Negro vote in a Democratic primary election and election officials are herein directed to throw out such ballot and not count the Case To Set Precedent "It is clearly evident that decision in this case will be made in America.

They kept up the old precedent at their installation of officers last Friday at the home of Charles Beese, Jr., 2 West 129 street. Though few actually swam, nearly all those who had the nerve at least waded in. Little Dorothy Embry, the society entertainer, was by far the best in the Charleston Contest that followed the formalities. The officers installed were, Reginald Gordon, president; Joseph Meyers, vice president; Wilfred Woodruff, secretary; Charles Beese, treasurer; William Crampton, chaplin; Belford Harty, sergeant-at-arms. Those present at the occasion were, the Misses Zenaide Anderson, Grace and Ruth Giles, Ruth N.

Emile Holley, recently elected to the Phi Beta Society, is back in town from Middlebury and has run the rounds of congratulations. About 29 years ago when horse cars and bicycles were the vogue in New York, the Alpha Bowling Club was organized. Probably as a result of the club who dactually bolt a hitre ever so often,aver, with the exit of the horse cars and the bicycle also came the end of bowling as a fad among Harlemites, until now here it has been possible to manipulate a bail down an alley within striking distance of a pin. Though there are no more bowlers in Harlem we can say that there are yet a few good formal dance promoters yet within the range of the club and the spit club, the Adelphi, pull off their formals on the 14th and 17th, respectively, on the back of no same hour of entertainment. The program opened with a March 15 performance from such composers as Will Marlon Cook, Harry Burleigh, and Richie Garner. William Isles was the director. JESSIE FAUSET HOME Jessie Faustet, of the N.

TAYLOR New York—Nurses and attendants in the fourth ward of Harlem Hospital, last Thursday afternoon were unable to prevent a patient, John Jessup, Petitch. He was sitting in a story window to the front yard below while hundreds of people who throned in armament was looked on in horror and amazement. Jessup was suffering from an attack that left him blind and powerless below, in which he landed. The inquiries he received were not satisfied by the illustrated Press by hospital officials late Thursday night nor were reporters. Every source of official information was immediately shut off to the press and kept on as an oyster. It was shortly after the morning when about the man's condition. Mistaking me for a relative she said he was not a cat but does not let this get out, she pleaded.

ENDOM TAYLOR New York.—The detective forces of three districts have been unable to discover as yet whether or not two Spanish agents sent into Baltimore and Washington were dispatched from Philadelphia instead of New York for the institution of clearing house lottery numbers by The Wizard Marcelleaus, who is much wanted here. To the New York gumshoe squad it really means something in other words the wider they expand their territory the easier, and wholesale raids will be conducted. It is known by detective sergeants at the 14th, 16th and 13th precincts in Harlem that Marcelleus, the wizard, did not make and remove his headquarters from 139th street, west, to 131st As for New York, old aces in the back row are going back to the original play- play going back to the original play- N.

Call VErnon 6017 FIGHT ON MORTON NOT TAKEN SERIOUSLY Colored Democracy Said To Have Been Too Successful Under His Leadership VOTERS WOULDN'T SUBMIT Oscar Waters And John Mc Neel Said To Be Among Dissenter New York.—For the last several days residents of Upper Harlem have been engrossed in what purported to be a three-cornered contest for the control of the organization which has for a quarter of a century been known as the United Colored Democracy, and has been presided over for the last decade by Ferdinand Q. Morton. Municipal Civil Service Commissioner. This organization which has in twenty-five years grown from a handful of proselytized republicans to a stalwart army of Tammany Braves has become the bone of contention, since whoever gained control would become the dispensers of the patronage of its ever increasing democratic vote in reelection should receive. A Leader 10 Years In the past ten years, under the intelligent leadership of Morton, the demon who most reasonable expectation of those who first exposed the policy of democracy. Several factors have contributed to bring about the dissention, socialized. The infux in the various government resents who Harlem as a safe place to do business has for a long time been opposed to those who, but for such resistance would have benefited by keeping Harlem wide open. Assessments believed led by Oscar H. Waters, chairman of the National Negro Democratic League, to reckon with the avowed intention of taking Morton's place. Mr. Waters was the editor of a Harlem newspaper which was born with the advent of the McAdoo candidacy, and dedicated to his cause, after the nomination of W. Davis. John R. McNeel, eratish assistant supervisor on Market on Lonox avenue, put up to succeed the present leader. **Witches Get Bury** When it hit them that there was dissection in the ranks of the Negro Democracy it appears that Edmund Hollaan, sitting, and Matteo D. A. D., the white leader, and A. D. I., D. A. D., and the 15th A. D., respectively, vouched to suggest to suggest that the black students in their respective districts, thereby doing away with the auxiliary or democracy and automatically Mr. Morton's leadership. It would indicate that any attempt on the part of white leaders to assume the role of the voters, but would be remembered on next election day. It is generally predicted that Judge Alvany, present leader of Tammany Hall, allowing such auxiliaries as the white leaders to be admitted by the late leader Croker and successfully followed by the late leader Murray, allowing such auxiliaries as the white leaders to be admitted by the late leader Croker and United Colored Democracy to function as the white leader with leaders of their own racial group.

AROUND HARLEM WITH JACKSON By J. A. (Billboard) Jackson New York, N.Y.—The New York Sunday Herald-Tribune of March 29th, contained a very interesting story entitled, "Calling the Carrlages of old Broadway," by Arthur Chapman. It was a bit of pleasantly set forth reminiscences of an old gentleman who was a carriage caller before several theatres on the famous street in the early 50's. Harrod Singers The Harrod Jubilee Singers appeared at the Hebrew Orphanage during the past week under the direction of the Cross Entertainment Bureau. Of course the engagement was a success. The especially interesting thing about the matter, according to Mr. Harrod, is the remarkable knowledge that Mr. Hinds, the director of the orphanage, had of the history of the Negro and his music. The entire quartette declares that they were greatly benefited by the discourses with which he introduced their every number. The Lafayette Theatre has been donated to the churches for daily noon-day services during Holy Week. The arrangement was effected through the efforts of Rev. Alexander Garner, chaplain general of the Deacons' Club. Many from the clubs adjacent rendered vocal assistance. Met Richard B. Harrison on route to Southern colleges that he declares to have been highly successful from every college he has attended.

Both are, however, now in good health. Cotton Club Band and Betway and Rector were the big features of the Lincoln Theatre, week of April 16th.

Mr. Cook is the son of Will Marion Cook and Abbey Mitchell. He is to graduate from Amherst College in June, where he has recently been elected to the Phi Beta Kappa Society.

MANY LARGE THEATRES RETURNING TO STOCK POLICY EASTER MONDAY— DON'T MISS THIS SHOW mance of man & beast staged amidst a roaring mountain of fire WILLIAM FOX presents Tom Mix with Tony, the horse & Duke, the dog, in TEETH A red-blooded drama of the West by Clinton H. Stagg & Virginia Hudson Brightman A J.G. BLYSTONE production Page Four MANY MANY HOUSES BACK TO STOCK POLICY Material In Open Entertainment Market Called Uncertain Salary List Lower Because Large Railroad Fares Do Not Have To Be Paid Much interest is being paid to the evident return to popularity of stock companies. Many large houses throughout the country have followed the example of the Regent in Baltimore, and the imminent Philadelphia who both established permanent stock in charge of a producer. Showmen and managers cite the uncertainty of keeping their houses running with the companies and acts available today. They point out that because of the demand made for colored clothing, the boy world that the supply of material has been decreased more than it has been in years. Open Market Uncertain These men say that going in the open market for acts at this time means that one week it is necessary to book a company to meet them to pick up their admission prices. Always an undesirable policy. When the former elaborate large company is dispensed with for an inferior company of smaller size, then a howl also comes from the patrons because the descending entertainment contrast is too great. That the admission price is reduced sees the difference. Good Entertainment Assured Hence the booking of a capable stock company with a good producer clarifies the situation. There is no fear of a company disappointing by accepting another engagement. No speculation is necessary about the stock company or manager can witness rehearsals and see that the production is brought up to the standard by his patrons. There is nothing in the stock policy to prevent the frequent changing of chorus and principals. Thus new faces and diversified talents are added to the traveling company. The cost of these stock companies is often lower, for traveling expenses of performers incurred on the road is increased in a period of engagement. Thus the latter can afford to work for less. BOBBY LEE FORFEITS $1000 IN "PHILLY" Case Grew Out Of Liquor Charge At Clnderella Inn Where Leader Of Philadelphia, Pa.—Bobby Lee, conductor of the famous "Cotton Pickers" orchestra, of Philadelphia, forfeited a bond of $1,000 which he paid to the violinist for violin liquor law it is alleged. The case grew out of a selling charge at the Cinderella Inn, 16th and Lombard street, of which Lee is manager. Mrs. Ethel Duncan, alleged proprietor, and Frank Scott, bartender, forfeited $500 to missioner Manley on Tuesday of last week, forfeiting $500 each. The padlock proceedings against the Cinderella were withdrawn by Mr. Abbott, counsel for the Safety Department, to close the place was insufficient. Bobby Lee's "Cotton Pickers" are one of the star bands of Philadelphia. They are in demand at home and in other cities to furnish dance music. They appeared recently at the New York City will repeat the engagement every two weeks an AFRO reporter was informed. NEV EASTER MONDAY— DON'T MISS mance of man & beast stage LARGE TI Amusement In The Virgin Isles Amusement In The Virgin Isles "The Bulletin" published in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, carries almost a page of advertisement of the Apollo Theatre, in that city. The program announces the bill opening with one original act entitled: "The Highest Bladder of L. Robles." L. Robles are the characters in the sketch, the comedy, and which the writer says is laughter from start to finish. "Bubbles Troubles," a farce is next, then intermission. Part three opens with "Two Sons of Uncle Sam" with Mr. Soto, Susan, and "My Uncle's Will," in which Miss M. Robles is soubrette and Mr. Lee Robles as Muggsy. At the finish the eccentric shake and funny dance by soubrette, Muggsy and company. Readers are admonished to come early and bring a friend along with a box containing six chairs costs $3, general entrance 20 cents, front seats 40 cents, and gallery 20 cents. "Dixie" Going West "Dixie to Broadway" stayed 11 weeks in Philadelphia before leaving for the road. The box-office reports from the "Quakertown" engagement are extremely commendable. On Easter Monday the production opens in Chicago at the Auditorium. Layton And Johnston Layton and Johnson continue to be the rage of big-time vaudeville. This is said to be due, partially to their radio activities as well as their other sterling entertaining qualities. A London writer says: "The boy who wrote the biggest feature of their show is their clear enunciation. They are, in this respect, a good model for many of our native artists." Refuse To 'Be Themselves' "Charleston" contests are becoming the vogue in the theatres playing principally to white patronage. Spiritnals are also gradually making way on the programs of Causanian concert and vaudeville artists. Again has the colored citizenry supplied that which has undoubtedly amusement value. They just will not stop "poaching on Ham's preserves." Players Awake "Quakers" Jess Dunson, publicity agent for the two Gibson Theatres, the Standard and Dunbar, informed us that she was done by the "Unwanted Child" played by the Evelyn Sills group of Lafayette Players at the Dunbar, compared with the takings of "Why Women Cheat" Jess says the company is intact. Dr. Dett In Kansas Dr. Nathaniel Dett, director of music at Hampton Institute, noted composer and pianist, will appear in recital in Wichita, Kansas, next Monday. The appearance of the artist is sponsored by the Coleridge-Taylor Conservatory of Music.

DADDY A PREACHER SON IS A MAGICIAN Billy Ewing Taught Himself Difficult Tricks From Books In Cleveland Library MOTHER OFTEN PROTESTED At One Time Toured The Country As Assistant To Thurston Acquaintances and the theatregoers who visited the revised version of "Aces and Queens" at the Academy of Music last week, doubtlessly remember a tall rather "shellkish" looking brown skinned fellow who was in the midst of a protest, an activist there was going on. That fellow was William or professionally speaking, Billy Ewing. From an early age, this young fellow was interested in the theatres and their people. As a youth he was unnacently fascinated and he drawn toward things. He was born on Thurston, Tennessee, his parents moving to Cleveland, Ohio, when he was six years of age. In the new home the then, little yellow availed himself of the splendid public library after school hours, and while companions delivered into the lives of such classics Heroes as "Young Wild West" and "Deadwood Dick" Billy religiously read all of the books of magic that the library afforded. The Mother Against "Devil" Cards. That early age he had become quite familiar with the mysteries of "black art," disproving the theory of many that one may not become a magician from book "Harnib." Ewing centered his interest on card and coin manipulation until he had become so proficient in the which required much ability and dexterity to mystify audiences without being detected. His mother and other relatives were horrified at the thought of a deck of "Devil Cards," and predicted that Billy was on his way to the lower regions. During one vacation period Billy secured a shoe-shining position in the washroom of the Kennard House, a Cleveland Hotel. Soon after he began work on the new job, he began to amuse his friends and take photos with his card tricks. It so happened that Thurston the magician checked in at the same house while playing a date in the city. Some admirer of Billy Ewing, as a man of magic informed the great man that there was a man who plays or two about the secrets of producing aces from the either and shooting them Up Sunday coat sleeves. The great Thurston sat in on one of these impromptu exhibition in the hotel basement and palace, and of raising the skill of his bronzed contemporary, and offered him a position at $25 per week as one of his assistants. Did he accept? He did, and with pleasure. For many month the fortunate fellow travelled, added to his knowledge, appearing twice daily in the garb and makeup of a Hindoo assistant in the famous "Basket trick" in which a sword is passed to a masseuse while the sword is concealed. At Chicago, Ewing left the services of Thurson and formed a partnership with his present teammate, Joe Byrd. Daddy A "Sky Pilot" The two have travelled extensively, playing both Vaudeville and musical comedies. Billy Ewing is a son of the Reverend A. B. Ewing, a methodist minister of Jenkins, Kentucky, and a Lodge of Masons, 35 Louisville, and Victory 240, Oklahoma City, and is an all-round good fellow.

Old Testament History "After Six Days" At Roosevelt TER SIX DAYS" will be screened there next Friday. The picture is a stupendous world, the world's greatest story, the story of a man who cost over $30,000, and took five years to make, but it is vastly more than a religious and historical film, as might be supposed, its tremendous drama—the epic that making it a film that can an appeal for all. entertainment of the highest quality. "After Six Days" presents the story of the Old Testament from Adam and Eve to the time of King Solomon. It shows in vivid fashion the staging of Abel by Cain, the highly project of the Ark, the Deluge, the Tower of Babel, the story of Joseph and his Brethren, the magnificence of Pharaoh's court, the dramatic and pathetic life of Moses, the Miracle of the Red Sea, the frendless battles of the Children of Israel with the Amalekites, the splendors of King Solomon's reign, his judgments and the battle with Tamar, the first vampire of history. his romance with Tammil, more than six hundred principals and thousands of supernumeraries together with a small army of technical workers are used in the production, which was made in the original locales in Egypt, Palestine, Mesopotamia and elsewhere in the Holy Land called for in Biblical history.

There are no fewer than four women kindly to love with the "Sainted Devil," and this will make them maniacous, for every girl who sees The story itself is full of colorful action. The South American background, with its romantic costumes, aristocratic beauty, romance, intrigue, adventure, helps to make a tale to dream about. There is plenty of fighting, lots of loving and some real good laughs thrown in for good measure. One of the big moments of the picture is that where Don Alonzo rides forth to rescue his bride from the bandits, only to see a woman wearing her bridy veil in the arms of El Tigre, the robber chief. Of course, he cannot know that although the veil is Julietta's, the girl is Carletta. He tosses away his wedding ring, and settles down to the serious business of buying a ring with his life. of doing this. The impressive bit is the subtle revenge Alonzo takes on Dona Florencia, the fascinating woman who has caused three suicides. She completely subgulates Alonzo's intimate. Don Lulis, and then laugh at him. Alonzo nearly turns the tables by doing the self-same thing in solitude. As the volatile Latin who attains the heights of love and plumbs the depths of hate and despair, Valentine most certainly looks the part. He doesn't act it—he lives it. For the time he actually is Don Alonzo Castro, and he registers every emotion that rends his passionate Helene Reid in "Broken Laws" is the detectable bit that will be served up next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Tom Mix, Tony And Duke In "Teeth" At Dunbar There is no reason in the book of reasons why Dunbar patrons will not like "Teeth," featuring Tony, the wonder horse, Duke the dog with a human mind and the great Tom Mix coming to the Dunbar Easter Monday: If they enjoy loosening all stops in their emotions, if they love a dog that is a loyal and brainy pal, if an almost humanly intelligent horse will make their hearts beat faster, they are in for an hour of happy emotions; when they ride with Tom Mix in "Teeth" tion. This latest achievement of Director, J. G. Blystone is an outstanding thriller that will stiffens muscles and curl hair. Tom Mix has provided himself a real artist in his perfect willingness to share home of his equine and canine pals, in order to aid in the accomplishment of placing them in stellar roles. The acting of the horse and dog place the film in the class of being a distinctive novelty feature, and the additional drawing power of Tom Mix's name guarantees good business for all exhibitors showing the pic- turc. Other scenes woven into the fabric of the film include the rescue of Dave by the dog from a maddened mob of whiskey-crazy outlaws bent upon lynching the hero; the laying low of a hard-boiled Western sheriff by the dog in assisting Dave's escape from the law, and several more at great The scene at the water hole where the wildly blazing fire threatens the life of an assorted lot of fugitives including wild cats, bears, coyotes, deer and mountain lions is intensely interesting. In the wake of the super intelligence of the dog and man, the tale, everything is tied together so naturally, so reasonably and with such a sure hand, that the onlooker will like every minute of the picture.

"SEVEN-ELEVEN" IS A RECORD SMASHER Sterling Grant Says It's A "Set Up" To Pack Customers In Columbia Houses "Seven-Eleven" is still on its murderous rampage over the Columbia Burlesque wheel; murdering all records is its specialty. Since leaving the Olympic Theatre in Chicago, where it committed its primary murder by killing all previous record of that house, the army of tremendous entertainers made a terrific charge on the Star and Garter in the same month, but it captured the house and established a record. From that "Seven-Eleven" turned its outburst of spontaneous diversion on Detroit, the "Gayetty" there being attacked and padlocked with a new record. Now this band of Columbians not being content with their triumphs in the United States, British territory was taken as a killer and band moved on to Toronto, Canada. The "Empire Theatre" then was said to be a hard job but its records fell like taking candy from a baby. British territory being so easy it was soon evacuated and the next place of attack was Buffalo, N. Y., where the "Gayety" Theatre was attacked and the city might march of song and dance. Then mertily these assists of groom moved to Rochester where they laughed in the face of a battle field strewn with the remains of one of the largest colored attractions which had been cut pieces by the firemen of the city and once more established new records. Then came a short attack on Watertown, N. Y., where in the days the attendance was more than the population of the town. "Seven-Eleven" is headed by Howe and Brown and Cook and Smith, with Jack Goldberg, white, in the box office. The cast contains some of the race's best talent in all lines. John H. Turner, A. Young, Sterling Grant, Billy Mitchell, Cecil Graham, Francis E. Elkhorn, John Knüreulow, James Rutherford—have most of the principal parts. They are assisted by a perfectly capable chorus. Stanley Bennet has a perfectly trained Jazz Band with the outfit and also takes full charge of the music. The record breaking hit of the season wishes to extend to all the rest of the profession its best wishes for success.

It's the great lover in the greatest romance ever. in Rex Beach's A SAINTED DEVIL A Joseph Henabery Production A Paramount Picture Added Attraction—Wednesday, Thursday "BENNY LEONARD in "BOUT 2" Assisted by GICIAN t, April 13 CHURCH theodore Thomas, Director STAR Rarely have the walls of the Star resounded with cheers and other applause as if daid on Monday afternoon. The occasion was the appearance of the Georgia "Red Hots," who demonstrated their stuff to a full house. "Belling, the original 'Baby Cox' (now quite a young woman) and daughter of the late 'Jimmy' Cox, and (we understand) of Ida Cox, the record star. Baby Cox may have lost her infancy, but she has retained all of the grace and artistry as the best of the colored child artist on the planet. We charge the skill of the best of the girls you have ever seen, multiply by two and you have a fah conception of BABY COX. Child wonders seem to be the fashion among the company for "Baby I Love Cox, another Girl I Love Cox," and "put over" two numbers like a seasoned veteran. This baby set the house "cuckoo" and I don't blame 'em. Baskette and Johnson, two newcomers to this village called the "Jazz Nuts" do things to a banjo and a guitar, and they tickled the chair Beyers silly. The singing and hoofing of these fellows was also the "muskrat's feathers." Another surprise of the occasion was the comedy of Sammy Graham, the woman I believe Miss Luceil Snow, and went through a sketch which proved undoubted entertainment. Miss Snow also came through handsomely. Billy Zeck another comedgot his with talk and songs. He owned, does leads. Mario Bidding and Catherine Raskiland complete the cast. REGENT The Bright Players have arranged a musical melange with the evident purpose of amusement only this week. Songs, dances, and comedy are mixed proportionately to please the varying tastes of the "customers." Andrew Tribble isn't overburdened with work, but manages to acquit himself as pleasingly as in the previous weeks. His singing of a number equals any which this character delineator has ever attested to. His attitude was a delightful ceyetal as a Gelshia girl. She was drawn on the stage scaled in jinkishka. Like a quart of pre-war Sherwood, the cash customers can't see this little artist too often, and this scribbler doesn't hire her himself. In a Mack Sennett bathing customer, soaked a bathing number about nighttime being bathing time of something to the same effect. This number's value was enhanced by movies and a splendid bit of staging that gave the appearance of actually bathing. "Dink" Stewart and Eddie Lemon shared the comedy burden. Little Joe Bright brought 'em a monologue delivered as well as a pitchman's spiel at a country fair, and just as convincing, Mr. Zeff qualifies very acceptably as a singer and agile dancer who knows what it's all about. Despite this being the height of the Lenten session, there was a large number of patrons in the theatre on Monday night. At 9 p. m. they were still filling through teh turnstile.

WORLD CHAMPIONS PREPARE FOR RACE Kansas City Monarchs Complete Roster For Coming Pennant Battle VETERANS TO HUSTLE New Players Trying-For Berths Cause Old Timers Anxious Moments Kansas City, Mo.—With the completion of the deal for the transferring of Heavy Johnson, the slugging outfielder of the Monarchs, to the Baltimore Black Sox in exchange for Wade Johnson, the footed outfielder of the Sox, the team of the champions is complete and the boys are now arriving daily and reporting to headquarters. The coming of Wade Johnson gives them one of the best lead off men in the game. Johnson was a former member of the team, but he backed Eust last year, and he back with his old teammates where he will be received with open arms by hundreds of local fans. New Faces Several new faces will be seen on the Monarchs this season, and a few of the vets ans will have to hustle to hold their jobs, as four new men are sure of landing jobs with the local team this year. Three of them are bound to this reason as they are all experienced men, and have been pitching ball for several seasons. Hop Barlett, the big six footer from Centralia, Mo., who weighs more than 200 pounds, will be back with the Monarchs this season. Hop as he is known by all the fans started out with the team last season but on account of his forced to return home before the season closed. He pitched semi-pro ball last season and won 35 straight games, and losing two. Another Bullet Rogan Fred Simms, the Iowa cyclone, who has been, pitching for the best white semi-pro team of that state for the past four seasons, will be another valuable asset to the champions this season. Simms is also another Butler Requiem. He is a wonderful hitter and can play the outfield when not pitching. Simms is another large pitcher, weighing Pear 200 pounds. Simms was secured after efforts by the management lasting through the past three seasons, as the white teams did not want to let him go. Simms is bound to make good with such a team as the Monarchs. A Six Footer Chester Brewer, the big pitching ace for the past three seasons with Jackson's Giants, will be the other member of the big three to join the champs this season. Brewer is a top pitch and he has been sought after by all of the teams in the league for the most three years, and added a third, than吉米 and welches 140 pounds. Hooks Forman, who played last season with the Cleveland Brown and the Pittsburgh Keystones, is likely to be Monarch catcher who will again be back with his former teammates. Forman has been catching for the team made up of members of the Monarchs this winter, and from reports he is the most improved catcher in the game today. His blitting has been a feature in "alifornia" this winter, and his coming back to the local team will be a great help to catcher Frank Duncan. Star Catching Staff Henry Williams, the big husky catcher from Oklahoma, who was forced out of the game last season in account of sickness will return gain to the local catching staff. Williams is one of the catchers in the game. He is one of the best handlers of pitchers in the business and if Henry report in as good a shape as he was when he first joined the team three seasons ago, the local team will have three of the best catchers in the league. Frank Duncan, the local crack young catcher needs no introduction, and Frank is gearing to go, and predicts that he is going to have the best season of his career. Bookles Try for Berths Several young rookies will report try out for positions both in the attfield and infield, and five young pitchers are now here to show that they are ready for the big league. All of the regulars of last year's Worlds Champions will return this year, to fight off the many promising youngsters who are now threaten the old regulars move down a notch. Hawkins, the regular first-sacker, will have lots of opposition for this season, as three very likely-looking first-sacers are now here to try Hawkins off of first base. Newt Allen at second. Moore at short, and Joseph at third, will no doubt be back in their old positions as they are all stars, and will be hard, to move by the youngsters. McNair will be back in left field, with Wade Johnson holding down center, with Mathelen and big George Sweatt alternating in rightfield. Sweatt sands more than six feet. is a college man and has been with local schools and local colleges are being made more and a first sacker out of him: He is a dangerous hitter, and the fastest man on the team. Much depends On Boxan and Bell Bullett Rogan, the Monarch pitchace, will again be expected to help bring the team to another pennant. But the team will be where he was the sensation of the winter league, and he now report in fine condition, and is ready to go Wm. (Texas) Bell another member, last year's pitching staff, expected to be another winner the season. MARYLAND'S SCHOOLBOY CHAMPIONS RAGE YOUTH NEAR RECORD IN 600-YD RAGE YOUTH NEAR RECORD IN 600-YD New York, N. Y.—Cecil Cooke, Syracuse University, made an excellent showing in the special 600-yard race at Knight's of Columbus carnival, held recently in Madison Square Garden. Cooke finished second, within a stride for the former world record for the 600 yards distance. Cooke's closing sprint cut down such runners as Jake Driscoll and Ray Robertson of the Boston A. A., Joe Tierney and Walter Mulville, of Holy College and Vincent Lally, now the national champion at the distance. Tommy Keans, coach at Syracuse, hold high hope for Cooke's future on the path and believes the Race youth will follow in the footsteps of other great trackmen turned out by the University. Bell is predicted to be one of the greatest pitches in the game, and this will be his third season with the Champions, he is expected to do wonders. Drake Noi Serious Wm. (Plunk) Drake, one of the veterans of the league, and one of the best known pitchers in the game today, has been pitching wonderful pitchers in the league. He reports state that he has been in better form than he has for the past five years. If Drake will take baseball series he should prove to be one of the most valuable pitchers in the game. Gell's Arm Better Cliff Bell, the fast ball wonder of the locals has been taking things easier this winter in California, he has pitched a few games and from reports he has rid himself of the league's best pitcher out of the games the best part of the past season. He started out like a house airstation last season, winning the first seven games that he worked, and then he pitched into the arm, and never rounded into shape until time for the World Series. The Hero Boss Joe Mendez, the Cuban pitching marvel, who stood the great Hildale team on their heads and was the best player, is here and issuing out instructions to the gang to take things rather slow to start with. Mendez takes his regular turn in the box in the season, besides managing the club. Morris Released Harold Morris the stocky little pitcher secured by the locals from California, will be sent to Indianapolis this season. Morris is a very promising pitcher and his going to Indianapolis will great strength to the A. B. C's. The team that beats out the Monarchs this season will win the pennant.

For it is a fact that one diseased organ in the body can upset a half dozen other organs by taking from them the necessary vital NERVE FORCE required for the DISEASED ORGAN.

The LEAK, my treatment consists of LURKING FRAUITY AS SIMILATION AND FAULTY ELIMINATION, the important functions upon which the body depends for normal health.

Mrs. Carter is adored by all the girls and the proxies and admired by all the girls and admired them so much that an onlooker would have been shocked to behold the beauty and taste of apparel displayed by the guests; the dresses were posed at their bout, but because they appeared so welcomingly, attired when the knew that none of the male contingent of the co-educational institution would be presided over. The first feature of the evening was a word-game, won by Miss Roxie Pinkett.

The menu consisted of chicken sandwiches, salads, cakes, almonds, mints and peanuts. Those present other than the upper-class girls were Mrs McCratchen, Moore, Mary Wasson, and Jane Sullivan.

MORE SCHOOL BOARD MORE SCHOOL BOARD Continued From Page. 20 My final decision, however, was based upon a careful consideration of all questions involved and I think that with the superintendents was the best one, considering all facts bearing on the subject. Two Interesting Items Two interesting items in his report were: "As a matter of argument, I wish to present the following: starting from the date of acceptance of the building, namely, December 3, 1921, I am positively the building could not have been fully equipped before July 1st, which is 152 years ago, close of the 1924-1925 school year. Hawkins urged Delay 'When I prepared the specifications for the standard equipment in January, Dr. Weiglein suggested that the carpenter should work the workin the laboratories. This was practically agreed to. When however, Dr. Weiglein, 'Mr. Mason Hawkins and I made a final survey of the building on March 18th, the questionnaires, cafeteria equipment and supplies was taken up and both Dr. Weiglein and Mr. Hawkins, and especially the latter, thought that it' would create a false impression to everything in first-class running order." Equipment Stolen Mrs. Baurenschmidt in her statement said the delay on opening the new school was costing the tax payers the interest on the $1,500,000 the cost of the school on $5,000 a month. Mr. Welghardt replied that the delay saved a gas and electric bill of $500 a month, pay of 8 janitters at $100 a month, 4 janitresses at $60 a month and 8 janitresses at $40 a month on a total of $1780 a month. Delay Cuts Money Mr. Weighardh's report also stated that lockers, desks and cases that had been removed from the old annex to he new office and the contents stolen. White no-definite information could be gained as to just who the culprits were it is believed that one of the workers on the job. Teacher Appointed The following teachers were recommended for regular appointment: Misses Katherine N. Johnson, M. White, Aurelia Diggs and N. Randall. Just Arrived! NEW Smart Exclusive Original MORE BETHEL justified by the proper authorities. Asked About Funds Mr. Dodd was then asked about the church funds of which he is custodian, to which he replied: "Yes, I am an treasurer of the Board of Stewards, but our funds are limited, and my signature along with the pastor's is necessary in order that money may be drawn. The stewards hold the numerous conference chairs when they turn over the pastor when the year ends and he leaves for conference. "When that time arrives I will certainly put the charity wheelchair would not for a moment seek to delay funds that belong to the Annual Conference. I have held office continually since 1887, and have been a supporter of every pastor under whom I have served. The present predicament is the most painful experience I have ever had, and the course and to be a man. Whole stewards are generally regarded as the pastor's personal cabinet, yet it must be remembered that their first duty and highest duty is to their church." Asked About Rumor Is it true, as is being whispered that the presiding Bishop has repeated that the conference chairman was the founder of the session of the Conference on April 22. He was then asked, Mr. Dodd replied: "It would be improper for any official to discuss anything outside that might have been held by a member. I will say though, that such a thing would be most unusual, if not irregular, but if the Bishop should require it of its churches, I certainly would be willing for Boutel." **RIGHT TO WIN** Asked what he believed would be the final outcome, he said: "They say the right will win. As I said, they say they will spend my last dollar for what I believe is right." --- Va. Governor Threatened Richmond, Va.—Governor E. Lee Trinkle and Dr. W. A.

The consequence of this is that the blood of the Negro race and not vice versa in the Negro race and not vice versa in the Negro race. 3. —I do not oppose race integration. There is absolutely no proof that mixed races are physically or mentally inferior. Where this is observed, it is due to the intermixture conditions. As long as the intermixture proceeds in the way described, there is certainly no reason for opposing it. On the contrary, the Negroes are more likely to be white. There may be reasons to think that the Negro may be slightly different when we consider the average of the race problem than there is a great many family strains among the Negroes that are superior to many white family strains. Of the race problem can be obtained by mucking it clear to people that there is no instinctive feeling of one race against another. Instinctive race feeling is merely an automatic reaction which is brought about by impressing upon the mind of children and young people that the incompatibility of races."

Served Two Years Ferby, who has served two years of his life term, was convicted on charges of murder before that he returned to the job after he had been fired to wreak vengeance on his former employer. The result is that prosecutors believe the product of the murder produced witnesses to show that he was in another section when the crime was committed was convicted in a Canary Court and given the life sentence. Shortly before Christmas of this year, it was thought that the murders of Francis Dough, white when he was a daughter of daughter of Philip Zill, wrote letters which implicated the latter with the killing. These letters were sent to the Patterson, of Cambridge. In these letters the young white relative of Zill declared that he had offended him, killing that he did away with Wiley. Following revelations in this letter, Zill was arrested, but latter released on habeau corpus proceedings.

SISTERS WIN FIGHT AGAINST BROTHERS Nine Day Fight Over Mother's Will Ends In Circuit Court HOME AND CASH INVOLVED Eden Street Residence And $500 Bank Account Was Contested A family fight which dragged through nine days in the circuit court in an attempt to break the court's rules, where were left the bulk of a home and bank account, was lost by two brothers when their petition was dismissed Tuesday. The judge, David Adkins, brought court action against their sisters, Mrs. Rebecca Smith and Mrs. Mary Goddard. 50 Eden Hill of mother, Mrs. Rebecca Adkins, who died January 6th. In their petition they contended that their sisters exerted undue influence to have them cut off from participation in her estate. Mrs. Adkins, who died at the age of 65 years, was the mother of six children. She money and bought her own home in spite of, the fact, that the father died while they were at a tender age. it is on her behalf that she was the donor and the transfer of the deed. They claim that it was due to their efforts that she was able to buy the home, they declare that for their children, they remained with their mother contributing to her support and contended that it was with their children that they chose the property. The other sons they contended, did not do this. The others are Samuel Adkins and the oldest and youngest respectively. Mind Was Sound : The main issue on which the sons based their hope was that they attempted to establish the fact that they were the owners at the time of the transaction. This was shattered however when an expert from Johns Hopkins testified that he treated the mother at or near the time of the sound. This bill was dismissed and the daughters were granted the property and money. Atty, J. Stewart, B.D. expresses concern while Lt. W. F. McMullen was solicitor for the plaintiff.

HARSH CUBE A business man had the habit of leaving his umbrella at the office. One morning, on a rainy day, he picked up the umbrella of a young lady who sat in the same seat. "I beg your pardon, but this is mine," she said. "I much embarrassed, and that night gathered up all his umbrellas to take home, in order to forestall any attempts he got on the seat that sat the same young lady. Leaning over, she said in a low tone: "See you did very well today, after this." "I see you B. Minerva, Pa." Embarrassing Moment Some years ago I visited my sister in another town.

The Home-Tested Recipes Send us your favorite recipe for this column, particularly if this is the season for it. Address, Cookery Editor, AFROAMERICAN. BRUNE JELLY This jelly is made from the plebens prune, but it is a most delicious dessert. Use ½ pound prunes, 3 cups water, 1 cup sugar, 2-inch piece stick cinnamon, 1 cup boiling water, 4 tablespoons cornstarch, juice of 1 lemon, few grains salt. Wash prunes thru several waters. Let stand 2 hours in cold water and cook in same water until tender but not mushy. Remove meat from stones. Return prunes to water in which they were cooked, add sugar, cinnamon and boiling water and simmer 15 minutes. Make a smooth thin paste with the cornstarch and as much cold water as necessary. Cook, stirring to prevent burning, for 10 minutes. Remove stick of cinnamon, add lemon juice and turn into mold. Let stand until cold. Serve with whipped cream. BACON AND TOMATOES An excellent noon-day dish. Eight or 10 slices of bacon, 1 onion, 2 tablespoons four cups cups of cream, Broil bacon in a hot frying pan. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the fat. Stir flour in the batter, stirring constantly, and cook until thick and smooth. Season with pepper. Arrange the batter and pour over sauce. Serve hot. BAKED SPINACH Spinach contains that very necessary food element—vitamines, so we should eat it, anyway, when we eat it. This will be. Two pounds spinach, 2 tablespoons butter, 1 egg, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, 1/2 tablespoons butter, 1 tablespoon pepper, 1/2 tablespoon butter, 1 tablespoon pepper, Broil bacon in a pan and chop fine. Add butter, salt, pepper and nutmeg with the uncooked egg and butter, buttered baking dish, add a layer of ham, and continue layer for layer until all is used. The heat of the buttered baking dish will melt buttered crumbs and grated cheese and bake in a moderate oven until the cheese is melted and the crumbs are brown. **SALAD SUGGESTIONS** Chop a onion and cabbage when it heats up. Butter cabbage salad and see how it improves the flavor. If eggs are scarce, use flour for thickening salad dressing and add more cream than when "I never feel better paid for my work in the garden than I do when Spring arrives," writes Mrs. L. S. W., Pordland, Mo. To make this salad 3 hard-cooked eggs, you need 1 large Twelve radishes are cut in thin slices crosswise and these are mixed with the mashed egg and cooked and fried. Twelve radishes are cut in crisp lettuce leaves are made on the salad plates and the egg yolks and radishes are mixed with the lettuce may be mixed lightly with the salad dressing before being placed on the plates. CORN CUSTARD Either fresh canned corn is delicious baked thus: Chop the corn and add it to the eggs and milk beaten together as for custard. Add the milk into a buttered baking dish, set in a shallow pan of water and hake in a moderate oven until the custard is set. CRUSHED PINEAPPLE ICE In a baking dish, Fakes in a recent number of For Rice and Flakes in a recent number of The Household Magazine I was reminded of a rice dessert: cup milk, add 1/4 cup rice which has been washed and drained, and cook over hot water until the teaspoon salt and 1 cup crushed pineapple and chill. Just, before serving, fold in 1/4 pint cream beaten stiff. Pleigh lightly in sheerber glasses. COLUMBIA MUFFINS The dessert is appreciated only after having been eaten: Four cups whole wheat flour, 2 heaping teaspoons sugar, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 eggs, 4 tablespoons butter, 2 cups sweet milk, 4 eggs and sugar. The milk is stirred in flour and baking powder. Bake in gem pans in hot oven. If this makes too large an amount, you can substitute a vanilla flour. White flour can be substituted also. CONCERNING DEVILED EGGS In preparing deviled eggs I often use water instead of plain vinegar. The pretty coloring makes the eggs look different. When I use plain vinegar the eggs left over. This I use as a spread on crackers or bread. When I use plain vinegar for deviled eggs I add sugar to taste and a little thin cream. My head and body severed thus.

DOUBLE HEMSTITCHED EDGES Double hemstitching trim many frocks of crepe de chine at the hemline and around the sleeves and it is often used for lingerie underwear and lingerie accessories. TO REMOVE STOPPERS A little glycerine poured about the neck of a glass stopper that refuses to drain can be used particularly if you will let it stand for a while. FOR STAINED CHINA Common baking soda will remove stains on china or from stains and bath Tested Beauty Hints A good and simple milk bleach for use on cheesecloth is vinegar.

Whenever a supposed-to-be friend warns you not to tell you this, "If we had the moral courage to say, 'Then don't,' how man, his instincts, misunderstands, could have averted. In our town lived a young couple who wore hippied shoes and went to the city to visit with them. She was almost exactly the same build as the little one she was, but the young husband took her to the leading clothing store and an ogre to measure, suit, giving the cousin's measurements. He gave his check in payment and was on a week. Before the old man was delivered, howevethe young lady clerk who had taken the order came to the happy little wife, and after that, but though you ought to know" preliminaries, poured forth the whole story, garnishing "from an angel touches as "could see they were in love," were so anxious they should not expect they hey buy all clothes," etc. When husband came home he nightly allotted a man from the mother's without leaving the customary to be followed her and demand an explanation, so their home was broken up and two, and the clerk told all she knew—but did not know that the suit was to have been a surprise for the little birthday girl.

Friends urged me to bring jars of my pet canned salad.

The salad was served only to interested women, and the recipe with my name, address and telephone number sold for 19 cents. So popular was the idea that my recipes were disposed of like magic, and many orders taken to be delivered on next club day. Podo sales are for profit and as a rule there is not much demonstrating.

Father's Meanest Trick Father was making his home with an uncle and frugal aunt. One of their meals food than to balance ratios. One winter their diet consisted chiefly of black-eyed peas, beans, and rice. The next year they raised a quantity of black soy beans. Aunt the next year they saw if they might not be used for food. While they were soaking, the young girls and their dinners the winter before, procured from the medicine chest several combo meals the winter before, bred the soy beans, and dropped them in. Uncle remarked of the bitter taste, and next time and they would be all right. But when she was compelled to miss club meeting meals, they his plan had been successful. MISS. S. Detroit.

Let's make the room tidy for Daddy, Bobby, is much better than, 'Pick up your child, you have been given a reason for what he is required to do, and so the request appears to be often real enigmas to these little tots, who come out of their room, that seem useless to them.

By bit contempt yielded to mingled terror and reached the admonished the zonith. The glossy startings, as usual, proclaimed the news. The shrilling of the cicadas had not yet begun the torment space. The air was immense smothered sleep. Except for three strong gusts of wind which always blew at this time of the day, once they had laughed the caresses in the giant plants, and the leaves of the silk-cotton trees were as motionless as the smoke—off there in the distance. Now the cicadas set up their strumming: This was the hour that the Ne- grows chose for work. Batoula started off to an elevation dominating off level country around where were three linghas of different sizes. He went up to the largest of these hollow shells of the wood, picked up two mallets lying on the ground, struck two blows in his chest, excursion, but out sonorous in the motionless air. A great silence followed. It was broken again by two more shorter blows, and in farrier's hand a dub-dubs, more and more violent, faster and faster, more and more urgent, then slow and lingering, and ending in a desecrescendo, with one strong final bang of summons. And behold, over there, over there, farther away, still farther away, from everywhere, from behind and in front, the same noises came responsive, the same rumblings, the same beatings on lighgh, some heathating, some heathating others, some cochoking from kaga to kaga. The invisible broke into life, "You have summoned us," said these sounds, "you have summoned us." We listened to you. What do you wish? Speak. Twice space repeated the same notes, confused or distinct. When the horns absorbed the sound, Bolinha replied. There was no force in his first words. They suggested rather the monotonous tone of pushing either saddens or enliven, the resignation to fate. The mallists struck the three lions from them oppressive as the weather preceding a tornado before the donovor begins to blow. There was a sudden stop, then it began again, and swelled, and rose, always rose, higher and higher. Battatou's strength with sweat, his arm, and his almost danced. His men, their women, their children, their friends, the friends of their friends, the chiefs who hooded he had drunk, who had drunk his blood—he invited them, all of them. In nine days they were to come to grand vangin that he was going to give on the occasion of the 63238 The jerks of sound from Baioula's lifing, which had been expected since many rainy seasons, promised wonders. There would be things to eat and drink, there would be palavers, there would be amusement. Above all there would be yangba. Not one yangba, but all the yangbas. Not only the elephants' step, the dance of the jewelins, and the dance of the warriors, but also, above all, the dance of love, the dance that the Sabangas danced so well. There would be things to eat and drink, there would be yangba, yangba. Ah, the manfoc, the potatoes, the dazos, the gourds, the yams, the maize! Ah, the millet beer, the vekes, the pimentos, the honey, the fish, and the alligator's eggs! All that there would be to eat, all that and much more. All that there would be to drink, all that and much more. They'd eat and drink to the sound of the elephants and balafons. They were invited to come. Yes, yes! It was the festivity of the gu'nazas. Circumcision and exclusion took place only once in a twelve-month. They must come. How they'd laugh, yabao! "Yabao!" merely an exclamation. The echoes leapt with mirth. They leapt with the mirth of his speech, they prolonged his pleasantries, they continued. He stopped. A heavy expectancy freighted the air. Not for long. All around, from the front, the conversation began again, one the invisible tom-toms. And distant though the instruments were, one caught, at the end of each phrase, no more. We listened. We heard you. and understood. You are the greatest of M'bis, Batauola. You are the greatest of mokoulais, we'll come. We and our friends will come. We shall enjoy ourselves. The carousel. We shall drink like fish. We shall drink like the whites! You can count on me.

Boutaulu went down to the junction of the Bembe and Pombo Rivers, to examine a fishnet he had laid That had added to his reputation. His coming was greeted with a smile of his own. He was a woman of women he he had been with since the last time they had seen him; when it was true about such and so many things he ought up a house to intimate details. He carried two javelins, a bow, and a wallet of goat-skin. Wherever one went, no matter how short a way, one should never forget to take a wallet along. One could hide so many things in it. He filled it with a few b'm'b'l's leaves, a quiver of barbed arrows, and several leaves of manoic bread. That was all he needed, no more and no less. Whatever turned up in the way of a danger, he was prepared. Was he not equipped with his javelins, his bow and arrows? Against hunger, there was his ma-nice bread. Thanks to the b'm'b'l's leaves he could even enrich his fare. All he need do was immerse the leaves in the fish-net, and they'd stupify every fish that ventured in. He smiled, without replying in their pleasantries, took up the Baba alas garabo, stuffed it with the nigh leaves, and lighted it with an es her from the fire. That done, he stretched out on mat and smoked, in short paak blinking his eyes. "You should pay attention to women you choose," said Yasagindja. "Some day you'll come bid rich with a good kassirri." The eight other women laughed. "E-hee!... E-hee!... E-hee!... Yabao, that Yasaguindja!" He looked up at the sun as he walked—one of the numerous habits he bequeathed him by his parents. The older he grew, more he appre They slapped their hands. "But the kaisteri is nothing," said he, sighing. "It's a different thing. Bissibingui, if you catch some thing worse, I he! You'll die, pear by bits, tiny, tiny bits. But first you'll be covered with some spotted like a panther. Later you'll lose your teeth, your hair, your fingers. Think of Yakeulepeu who died—three, four, five months ago." The whites didn't seem to understand the use of knowing where to set one's foot. One cut oneself to stones and slipped in the water. With a little bit of help, they could avoid being hit, at least make them less severe. There was no loss of time involved, not to the man who knew how to husband his efforts. Besides, experience taught one that time had no value: one simply trust They told him what they were taught about. Soon after Bataucala left, Bissi- binii arrived He joked, too. The fun rose in higher pitch. They held their legs they plumped up and down on the ground, they went. He was a handsome young man, strong, well-built. He always found something to eat at Bataoula's home, and a bogtoo to him with his particular oseum. Nor was the great mokoufjjf the only one to cherish an affection for Bissibinguul. Of Bataoula's nine wives eight, without his knowledge, had testified to the warmth of their friendship to Bissibu. *E. hee-el.* . . . E. ee-ee-el. . . That Bontula, N'Gakoua. a caouring.

As for Yassigunda, she was already less obedient to the orders of the man who had purchased her than to the orders of Blissbingdi, and she only awarded a favorable rating to a show how greatly she crested big. Clouds spread and dappled the sky. The sun had almost disappeared. It was so red it looked like a great fanning flower. It shot out rays in widening sheen. It dropped in the alligator jaws. A woman must never refuse a man's desire. Neither must a man refuse a woman's desire. The sole law was instinct. To deceive your husband, to belong to him alone, to be a slave, the other was of much importance. Then large beams stained spines with blood.

S. Pittsburgh, Pa — A fraternial爪 were traveling the same way, and after exchanging a few preliminary formalities we lighted a couple of all-Havana and New York cups, which was faultlessly attired. His cheek bones were prominent, and a broad chin which dropped quickly when he laughed seemed to indicate a close bond with the characteristics, "I'm sure glad to be headin' home," he said as he laid down his channels gloves upon a handsome glove in his hand, a glass of ginger ale which the waitress had just brought in. "I've been away three months, and I'm still in the old girl again. I'm just naturally dying to see a first-class cabaret once more, too," he continued, with a slight ligh. "you live!" we inquired eagerly, noticing at the same time some snacks in the brother's mouth which had evidently been the one time shining place of some perfectly "Harlem, New York, I've lived there for twenty years," the brother added, with his perceptible list, evidently caused by the absence of the biocuspids. "This time last year I had five thousand cold plunks in a Harlem bank; but, see whiz, I dropped it all on the Sheephead Bay track. Every nickel of it got away, and when I saw Thanksgiving coming with nothing but the blues in sight, I had these bridges taken out again, and hit the trail for some real money." "Well, how did you make out?" we asked. Interestingly as we looked up at his smooth, brown skin, free from a single blemish and of the color of a dark russet apple. "Oughtina lick, I guess," he replied, as he opened the bag and exchanged his chamois gloves for a pair of silk ones. "I've saved up fifteen hundred dollars, besides buying my girl a solid gold wrist watch for Christmas. Travelers all over the State stopped at the best hotels; did two or three gold courses; and was the guest of several of the state's leading officials, including several chiefs of police." "You were touring Illinois or New York, I presume," we added diligently, taking a last slip of the "Oh, no-Alabama." answered our saint fraternal brother flapping as he took a bigret red turban over his head. "I sure is same upon his head." It sure is good to be able to talk English again. "We broke in, with assistance," a colored man can't stop at the best hotels in Alabama, and-" "Oh, he faltered." "You see, one time I worked with Ringling Brothers and I played the part of a Hindi Prince. That job stands me well, in times of distress," the brother fairly shouted. "I'm so well known in North that I had to take the South. The Alabamaians treated me fine. I cleaned up all over the state. And when I got into the Union Station today, English in three months, Gee, but it's a relief," concluded the brother. SEASIDE SOCIAL SNAPS Mrs. Amie E.

ROCKEFELLRE TELLS OF MILLION GIFT Says Three Generations Of Family Have Been Interested In Social Welfare GRANDMA AIDED SLAVES Family A Link in "Underground Railway" To Help Them To Freedom Writing for the New York Times, Sunday, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., told why he had led the effort to Hampton and Tuskegee. Mr. Rockefeller sald: "That again is a story that carries us back two generations. You know doubtless my mother then name was Spelman. My grandmother side was an eager opponent of slavery, and her family formed a link in the underground railway where the slaves escaped to freedom that in memory of mother family that the Spelman Seminary at Atlanta, Ga., was named; and today there is being built a chapel to my mother and Sisters—that is, to my mother and her sister, the late Spelman. "It is thus no wonder that, as a boy, I was taken by my father to the Hampton Institute. There he bought me a scholarship which meant that I was paying for the education of a student at Hampton. The student wrote to me from time to time, reporting how he was getting on, and I replied, I have never lost that interest, thus early acquired." "And your children—have you seen the same interest in them?" "Recently, we had the Hampton Quartette singing spirituals at our house, and one of my boys said he had never heard anything that pleased him so much. He has made me promise to take him during the holidays to see Hampton and Tuskegee with his own eyes." Importance of Race Problem "For many years," resumed Mr. Rockefeller, "I have held the opinion that no problem confronting the United States is more grave in its social significance than the race problem. Indeed, I am convinced that anything that can be done to assist the citizens in their endeavor to arrive at a more abundant life is well worthy of effort."

May God grant us to rise up and fight We have before us today one of the saddest and most tragic stories in human history—the story of a young man destined of God, by heritage, training and circumstances to reach a lofty station and fill an exiled career; and who reached it—almost. His name was Sampson. You will remember that at the very three hundredth of his imprisonment, he failed God and fell to a swift and awful destruction hardly to be equalled in the annals of Holy Writ. When the business or judging the fortunes of Israel lost weight in comparison with the sport of chasing Philippian women, the Heavenly Father let the mighty, Sampson fall. The he had escaped with company actively little less from the clutches of our enemy. He was at least a woman, and she was evidently a courtesan of surpassing blandishments and there can be no doubt that she lured him for the express and deliberate purpose of destruction. This is always the end. A vile woman of this sort seeks no greater glory than that of triumph over an otherwise great and godly man, or will she be satisfied until she traps him in the pit. But God got his way man's life indefinitely. When it clearly evident that a man is wholly given over to his lusts, out of very necessity he must hasten to his own doom. As with the individual, so with a race or nation. Unbridled lust has bee; the downfall of every civilization in history. Egypt fell; Rome fell; Greece fell; Europe is tootling and so also is America. And no sin is calculated so soon as to untangle the hopes of the Negro in America; of deceitful adultery. May God grant us to rise up and fight this thing.

Her or she encloses an outline copied chart of races that is worthless and unscientific. If the writer would read the manuscript, the typo would be recognized. Hunter, an English authority, in his Annals of Rural Bengal, says in speaking of the aboriginal inhabitants of India, "everything from their color and flat noses to their barbarous customs, manifested their relationship to Negro races." What was the nationality of Abrahams? Were the Cananifices Negroes? Was Solomon a Negro or a Jew?—Mrs. A. D. F. Orange, N. J. Abraham is the name of a character that was the legendary ancestor of many Asiatic and African tribes. He came from Ur of the Chaldees, a country settled by Cushites, who were very early settlers and believed as descendants of Ham. They were about 100 per cent Negro blood. According to Hebrew genealogy the Canaanites were the descendants of Canaan, the son of Ham. According to modern archeology they were of African descent and Negroid. Many Negroes are Jews and the ancient Jew was very much mixed. Not only Abraghal and Moses but also the ancient character of note were represented as Negroid among the Palestine Jews. In his songs, Solomon speaks of himself as being black, and he evidently was, because black, and brown-skinned people were predominant throughout the countries of Asia and Africa. Tuesday, 5 P.

England—That the white races will be unable in the long run to hold their own against the increasing numbers of Negroes and Latins of mixed blood on the American continent is the view of Prof. J. W. Gregory, expressed in his latest publication, entitled "The Menace of Color" just issued over the course of time. The dark rain rattled number one onsite by two to one, he says, and if the high Negro birth rate maintained the black population of the United States will be 40,000,000 by the year 2000. Dealing with the problem of finding room for the whites to spread and compete with blacks in colored races, Prof. B. S. Snyder says. The ethical basis of civilization has been supplied by the Asiatic, to whom are due the chief religions For the material basis of civilization, iron, the world is probably indebted to the Negro.

Secretary Charles Roche read the report from Mr. George Wickhardt, business manager of the Board's reports for the delay and Ralph C. Sharretts read the report of the Public Improvement Commission's report. "Do you think the heating plant had anything to do with the non-opening of the school in December?" City officials asked Stewart Purcell, chief engineer of the committee of Municipal Engineers. Purcell Dfcends Plant "I do not think it did," replied Mr. Purcell. Mr. Weighardt explained that water had been flowing into the basement for about a month and this had caused one of the oil tanks to float. He recommended that the sand which the tanks were set to remove in order to locate the source of this water. The Public Improvement Commission's report stated that the water in the basement was caused by the breaking of a valve. This would not have happened, it was said, if the School Board had had a watchman present at all times to look after the plant. Ferrant asked the School Board why they accepted the building if it was not complete. Mr. Isaac Fields, president, replied that "it has always been a matter of form to accept buildings." Mrs Baurenschuldt Talks Mrs. Marie Baurenschmidt, secretary of the Public School Association, came in for her share of information and directed her queries to both Mr. Purcell and the Public Improvement Committee. Mr. Baurenschmidt—Would you call your heating plant satisfactory? Mr. Purcell? Mr. Purcell—the plant is in need of some repairs now. Mrs. Baurenschmidt—Would you consider these repairs minor defects? Mr. Purcell—It will not be an expensive proposition to make these repairs. "Nigger" In Woodpile On one occasion when Mrs. Eauenrenschmidt thought Mr. Purcell was getting away from the subject of the heating plant, she recalled him with the remark, "Mr. Purcell, this is the 'nigger' in the wood pile now." Mr. Barry Mahool, member of the P. I. C. estimates that it would cost about $3,000 to make the necessary repairs. It was not decided whether the heating plant would payers or would be recovered on the bond of the contractors. Dr. Straver Criticised Mrs. Baurenschmidt criticized Dr. George Sturge's 'expert advice' on the schools, clinging the lack of exit from the classroom. "When you get from 1200 to 1500 colored children in that cafeteria with as few exits as there are, you are going to be on your hands, that part of the school. Dr. Sturge gets paid to take care of." Board's Reasons For Delay Mr. Weighardt's complete report for the delay which brought out 11 items, still to be completed in the building at the time it was turned over to the School Board and before the final tests could be made, some of this work not completed as late as March 16th was summed into the following three items: 11. One of the last operations in constructing a building is the plastering of inside walls and ceilings. From the standpoint of health it is unadvisable to immediately occupy newly plastered rooms. Bellable Heating- Plant (2) A reliable heating plant is absolutely essential in a school during cold weather and up to April 15th. for the health and comfort of the occupants. The heating plant in the colored high school new and up farm is equipped with the present time is questionable. One oil tank is out of position and liable to be put out of commission most any moment as a matter of fact should not be used because it is encased in oil soaked sand. The other tank is not encased in sand and it is not used for the rolling of the five underwriters to use this tank. Therefore, a fire hazard exists in the fuel storage room. Can't Hurry Equipment (2) The building is not equipped and with the present rush of work on hand in the business office it is physically impossible to expedite the immediate completion of special duties, including other work which would effect each and every one of the schools of our system, and prompt payment of invoices, the changing over of equipment and furniture in about 42 schools made necessary by other education authorities, payment of 700 employees, not to mention the many other equally important and urgent matters. is the equipment of a school direct bearing on the educa- work, this phase of the dream can be better estimated if the staff are always ways and means having an emergency although necessarily is expensive. Dending his report, Mr. Weiged: hard! Fees Responsible to a great degree respon- or the advocating the delay in the new colored high school.

GOOD MORNING JUDGE The Afro Court Reporter When the rising tide of springtime love surged in the breasts of John Tellis, 633 Rabbort street, and Miss Eda Dawkins, 655 Rabbort street, Mrs. Grace Tellis intervened and the trio found themselves saying good morning to His Honor in the Western Police Station, Saturday morning. The police visit followed a fight between the couple when she discovered her spouse in the home of Miss Dawkins. Magistrate—Was there any reason for this disturbance the officers tell me about? Mrs. Tellis—Well, I'll say so, judge; I caught the husband entertaining this girl in her room. That's the reason, all right. Magistrate—What were you doing in that girl's room. Mr. Tellis—Well, that's a little personal, Judge, but I will tell you this much: she sent for me. Mrs. Tellis—That's all right, about her sending for him. Judge, and if you will just punish that woman I'll tend to her. Magistrate—55 and costs each. Magistrate—so abhorred. Miss Dawkins intends—judges who would be the lady when did she marry this gentleman to take such authority given him. Mrs. Tellis (somewhat confused as the magistrate cast a questioning look at her)-Judge, we isn't truly to goodness married, but we kinder joined. Ever since I found him, we been Miss Dawkins-Well, I found him, too. The Magistrate-All of you are just bad and I will add a $5 line to Grace Tellis, or whatever her name is, too. Won't Need Timepiece George Reed, 1315 Shields Alley, had plenty of time on his hands. In fact, Reed had more time than he knew what to do with. He got up at 11:30, eating a light breakfast and then hanging around a Pennsylvania avenue pool room for the rest of the day finally got on George's nerves. He wanted to do something, so Wednesday he applied for a job. Listening to the Arnie Awards, his benefactor and allowed him to clean up around the house. Reed worked right well for a couple of hibits' and then quit. He refused pay for his services, much to the bewilderment of the man, when he went upstairs and found his Eligib movement, solid gold hunting case watch, value $100, and mysteriously disappeared. No time was lost, with the help of Northwestern police, his height, and Thursday morning and early Thursday morning was explaining it to the judge. "You see. Your Honor, I was going away on a little trip and I took the watch so I could tell the time in all right. You are going away on the judge, "where you are going you won't have to know what time it is. $250 bail." Missa Kennedy Remmbered Mary Kenny. 317 W. Hoffman street, had her temper on. Mary also had on an extra load of corn, that fiery brand that makes you think you can whip them when you look for more worlds to conquer. Mary went to work late just hoping for trouble. Lon Kong, who conducts a Chinese Restaurant at 920 Drudu King Avenue, needed an emplorer. Steven asked why Mary was late, and there he made the mistake of a lifetime. A chair shot through the air, and made a connection with Kong's restless nature. The native tongue that must have been Chinese cus words): Both stood in the Northwestern police station Monday morning. "Do you want me to try your case," asked the judge. "No," said Mary in a sulky tone of voice. "And why, may I ask?" asked His Honor. "Because you tried me once before, and almost ruined me," said Mary, "but he sent me time, said the magistrate, and only fine you $5 and costs."

Washington, D. C.—In the six years from 1919 to 1924 inclusive, it is estimated that venereal diseases have caused an economic loss to the United States of $2,800,000,000. This total complete loss ignores the loss of life caused by syphilis and gonorrhea and represents a drain of $25 upon every man woman and child in the country—a drain that is felt by the healthy and the unhealthy, by the rich as well as the poor. It has been estimated that venereal diseases cause country apportioned $400,000,000 a year in decreased efficiency of the general population, $1,500,000,000 for the care of insane syphilis, $97,000,000 in economic losses on the insane (represented by lost earning capacity), $3,000,000,000 for the care of persons blind from gonorrhea, and $10,000,000 for the treatment of venereally diseased men and women. There is a yearly charge of $461.500,000, and a six year waste of $27,683,000,000. When the money is spent, the state and national erruments in veneral diseases control during that period of time is added, the cost of veneral disease caused by some $11,000,000,000 making a grand total of $.580,000,000. Causes Paralysis It has been established that paracrisis and other forms of mental disorders brought on by syphilis have been responsible for many accidents in the commercial and industrial world. The case is told of a taxi-cab driver who had figured in many cases that he was victimized severely. On examination the man was found to have a syphilitic history and to be suffering from general paralysis of the insane. In one group of commercial enterprises, the physicians' committee on prevention and control of occupational diseases and hazards reported that "sufficient data had been secured to show that (i) syphilis is an important instance in the appearance as a direct or contributing cause in derecisions of duty with results that have been disasterous to life and property." Can Be Cured Partly because of this drain upon the resources of the country—a burden that falls upon the shoulders of all alike—the United States Public Health Service is conducting a campaign of education against venereal diseases. Through the Division of Venereal Disease the Quarantine Department urges the truths that syphilis and gonorrhea are unnecessary afflictions which may be both prevented and cured.

Citizen Give Views On Open Sunday Movies in a big city is a little job for Afro Agents. It's a proposition that pays Its position is strategic. Close to Washington, the Nation's Capital, and New York, the world's largest city, it gets the news fresh, a week ahead of other weeklies. "What do your boys, and girls do with their Sunday afternoon hours?" Someone wrote the City Editor recently asking this question and whether Sunday movies would not be better than something they are doing. Here is what a number of Baltimore citizens think about it. Some Pictures Detrimental Some Pictures Detrimental I think one of the most helpful things we have to do in the community is to be our own Sunday. I think that every member and church worker should look after the people in their community, find out if they attend any Church and if they do not, urge them to go to some Church. Do not urge them to go to your Church but to any Church they would like to go rather than go to the movies on Sunday. And they would like to watch with their children to the movies and know what kind of pictures the children are seeing. They see too many pictures that are detrimental to them as the wildest pictures. The children should not be allowed to go alone to the movies at night under any circumstance. MIGA GRACE GIBSON. 907 N. Carrollton Should Go To Church I think it a wise thing to keep the picture houses closed on Sundays, because it will cause the boy and girls to continue to seek their amusement churches Churches and organizations. We have six days to go to the movies and other places of amusements and on Sundays we should go to Church. THEODORE R. ROSS 1825 McCulloh Street. Advocates Closed Sunday I am strong advocate for closed movies on Sundays. I think if the boy and girls seek amusements because closed movies, in undesirable places, it is the fault of the parents. Mrs. H. A. BLACKWELL 424 Mosher Street. Churches - Should - Supply - Sunday Activities I don't think that the closing of movies on Sunday causes the boys and girls to seek other undesirable places for amusements. I think the church should have some kind of excuse that will draw the young people to them. I do not believe in any kind of outside amusements on Sundays. A Little Child's Opinion of Movies The Seventh Day is the Lord's day and we are supposed to serve God, and not go to the movies. son of the Rev. W. W. Walker, pastor of Madison Street Presbyterian Church. This Man for Sunday Movies I see no harm in movies on Sundays, if we select the right kind of pictures to go to. Going to a picture show shouldn't necessarily interfere with one's Church service on Sundays. And I certainly see no more harm in going to see a picture on Sundays, in going to a Sunday baseball game Call VErnon 6017 I do not think much of the idea of go to movies on Sundays, and have not been to a movie at anytime for more than a year. While there are a lot of good morals taught in pictures and in life signs for girls who go that want too, and as for boys and girls going to the movies on Sunday, there are many places that they can, and go, that are worse than the movies. Take for instance, the boy or girl whose parents are a little careless, and they themselves, it is natural that their children would also be careless, and have no interest in churches. They will and must have some other amusements and places to go, and as if said before, they are worse than a picture house, especially where only good pictures are shown. I don't thing the closing of picture houses has any effect on our boys and girls here because we have never had open picture houses on Sundays in Baltimore. It is different in Washington, D.C., and other places where we have open picture houses and would close them. We have never had any movies on Sundays here; and I hope we will never have them, so that our boys and girls will continue to seek the Union Leagues and other Christian organizations as they always have, for their amusements. Mrs. MAGGIE SMITH. 1402 Druld Hill Avenue. Would Use Educational Movies On Sundays No I do not think the closing of moving picture houses on Sundays cause the young people to seek excitement and amusement in uninterrupted people. They would be perfectly wonderful to have our boys and girls see an educational picture or a picture pertaining to the life of Christ. There are pictures with a moral that are good to be seen at any time, and children should not see. Young people should not see. Parents, churches and other organizations for the uplift of humanity, should know what kind of pictures the people of the community are seeing. They should know that the best way to bring them in is Mrs. GERTRUDE HANDY. 1000 Drudg Hill Avenue.
