CHARLES TRUSTY HAS RESIGNED Pittsburgh, Pa.—An unconformed report reached us this morning that the Rev. Charles M. Trusty, D. D. pastor of Grace Memorial Presbyterian Church in Pittsburgh, where he has pastorated the course of his Easter morning, sermon, intimated that there was so much dissension and disturbance in the church congregation that he was compelled to consider very seriously the event the Rev. M. Trusty effort to reach the Rev. M. Trusty this morning has proven fruitless. The Rev. M. Trusty is moderator of the Allegheny Presbyterian and is able to be the灵职教官 to have such an honor placed upon him. For some years there has been a group of Malecontents in the church who have never lost a single opportunity to embark his work at the church and in the community. The fact is, there is considerable dissatisfaction in the church and it appears that the enemies of the Rev. M. Trusty are gradually gaining ground in their agitation against him, it appears that the enemy is indeed in more ground their efforts than are the pastor's supporters. Fifty Zulus Drown.

BALTIMORE, MARYLAND SATURDAY, APRIL 18, 1925 BETHEL PASTOR IN, THEN OUT THEN IN AGAIN BETHEL PASTOR IN, THEN OUT THEN IN AGAIN The Rev. Frederick Douglass, Resigns, But Changes His Mind DOOD HOLDS THE FUNDS Court Actin Threatened, But Cooler And Wiser Heads Prevail While many were awaiting the Rev. Frederick Douglass, Pastor, to come into the darkened service at Bethel Good Friday evening, a war of words was in progress in the meeting of the board. While many were awaiting the pastor, Rev. Frederick Douglass, to come into the darkened service at Bethel Good Friday evening, a war of words was in progress in the meeting of the It happened thusly, according to the best information that could be obtained from earwitnesses: On motion of a class leader to elec. the president, H. Dodd, whom the pastor regards as suspended, the vote was 9 to 6 for the motion. Stewart Stephen Sheppard being the only steward to vote with the pastor. Classleader Samuel Dorsey was then declared the treasurer of the Board of Stewart. Would Go To Court But Treasurer Dodd, who was present, still declared he would not sign to release the funds until the proper time. It was at this point that the opposition wanted to go into court and compel Dodd to comply with his resolution. Some cooler heads, knowing the fighting proclivities of the deposed treasurer, wouldn't consent to this plan, feeling certain that it would end up indefinitely all the conference funds amounting to some $2,000 or more. Funds Refused Then the fireworks started, apparently in a fit of rage the pastor wrote a resignation. Steward Sheppard excitedly demanded that It be refused and the pastor urged to stay. Others refused to do this. Then he was dismissed. However, before the stewards could place the resignation in the hands of the proper authorities the pastor is said have sent for it and dropped the note. When the checks with the signature of the newly-elected treasurer were sent, the day they were fully turned down because they did not bear the signature of the only treasurer the bank felt recognize under the circumstances.

The Hurst was also present in the altar. Farewell Sermon Next Sunday, the pastor preaches what he announced as his "farewell" sermon. As the conference funds will be released Friday night, the 17th, it is thought that the troubles in the city's largest church will be at an end.

The colored maid came to me, and said: "There are some friends of yours in the second car back, Mr. Long was one of them, and I was in this section, but I did not know whether you'd want to be disturbed." It happened that I did not want to see these men, but if I had been planning an afternoon of work, one often does on that, I did not tell them: "Yes, of course, I know Mr. Long; he's in car so and so." I appreciated her consideration especially because there's nothing in the world temps the average person. She's a kind, kind, kind, and this woman has one. She never forgets the face of a patron of the Century. Mabel Fitts is exceptional in many ways. She has been a maid and manicurist on the job, she studied beauty culture, first aid, dietetics, taken courses in character analysis, and memory training, and—most important of all—she reads constantly in the newspapers of the sort that develop intelligence, and alertness. As a result, she is an interesting Rapp, 26.

Her screams brought scores to the street. The child chased ensued and the men were dragging the girl into a clump of woods when officers fired upon and captured them.

She can talk intelligently and does, if one wants her to talk. But she can be so silent too. If one is thoughtful and tired, she will complete one's manicure without a unnecessary to the manicure itself. Which shows tact. Natural tact.

General Rules On Queer Case Involving White Parent NAMES ARE WITHELD Ruling Not To Prevent Father's Will From Being Carried Out Austin, Texas, (E. N. S.) Children of a colored mother and a white father cannot be regarded as legal descendants according to a ruling made the Attorney General this week The opinion was given by Assistant Attorney General Ernest May, delivered to State Controller S. H. Terrell in answer to a injunction by Chester H. Bryan, County Judge of Harris County. It was the first time that such a question was ever propounded to any Texas Attorney General. The letter from Judge Bryan to the Comptroller and by the latter presented to the Attorney General, road: "There is a case in this county where the deceased left bequest in excess of $25,000. He was born in wedgewood with a common-law-wife (if such could be by a Negro woman. The attorney has requested that I obtain a ruling as whether or not the bequest to the deceased should be taxed up to $25,000 each, or whether the exemption would be limited to $500. Will you please obtain a ruling from the Attorney General in this county?" Assistant Attorney General May in his opinion assumed that the descendant referred to by Judge Bryan was a white man. The controller that the inheritance tax exemption could not apply to mulatto children of a white testator, Mr. May wrote: "The exemption tax law applies to transfers passing to or for the use of husband or wife, or any direct lineal descendant of a descendant or to a legally married person, or the daughter or wife of a son.

BASUTOLAND IS SWITZERLAND OF SOUTH AFRICA Tourists' Country NATIVES ARE INTELLIGENT Whites Forbidden To Enter Except By Very Special Permission There is at least one country in the world where a man treats his mother-in-law with due deference. In Basotoland he must not look at her, as he passes he hides his face as a token of respect. Basutoland, a wild mysterious country bordered by the Orange Free State, and separated from Natal by the mighty ramparts of the Drakens mountains, will be visited by the Prince of Wales in his tour through Africa, resulting it is hoped, in lowering some of the barriers which have hereto hindered the advance of civilization. The position of the Basutos is interesting, as they are governed from the town down the river from the Native Chiefs being opposed to inclusion in the "Union of South Africa." The Basuto Council is composed and headed by the president of Resident Commissioner. Land is divided on the Communal principal, there are no individual proprietors, and whites are forbidden to occupy the country without special permission. The Switzerland of South Africa Someday Bausalut will be recognized as the Switzerland of the South Africa by law, but the South Africa is bigger than Europe. Were such magnificent scenery in the northern hemisphere it would long ago have been expelled and overrun with tourists. But even though of roughing hills in canvas, or spending a few nights in the Bushman's caves, the gorges and passes will reply a visitor; peaks such as "Mon-aux-Sources" or for instance, Campagne or Mauger, to 10,000 to 12,000 feet high. Waterfalls, coming over cliffs in an unbroken leap of 600 feet, such as the Malunganung in the famous Mountains, perhaps more spectacular, but Googdo-Gorge also very beautiful with Gooodo Parr are very beautiful with Gooodo Parr where the Bausatons and their trains of ponies and wood continually are passing. Some Basuto Customs All marriages are arranged by proxy, and the betrothed announced at a feast. But the fances shyly revolve on mountains till this function is over. On the morning of the wedding, the bride's schoolfellows escort her to the house of her mother-in-law, the maid of honors, and the sisters of blankets, brooms, and cooking pots, with a sleeping mat. The bride's face is still covered, but she can be brushed by a wedding present (3d pieces) to raise her mask. When she arrives at her future home she refuses to do a hand's sake, and she leaves the hut. Then until a few of her children are born her own mother must not enter the hut. The hut is dying, friends leave the hut, and outside lamementation, like the keeping of the lime. After death the body is rolled in a blanket and buried in a slitting position with food beside it. The family dies, his elder wives are divided among his brothers, while the youngest wife is given to his own son. This keeps the cattle in the valley. A month after the death an ox or sheep is roasted whole, and beaten to a crispie. It lives out and handed to the oldest son; he takes a bite and apits it out. This is the same as Basute form to mention deceased again, unless when struck by lightening, or they do not always mention him even then.

GAMES ADVISED Baseball And Football Urged To Suppland Midnight Orgies The African World reports a governmental dinner to Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, educational director of the Phelps-Stokes Fund of New York last week. The banquet was given in recognition of the cooperation of America in sending commissions to Africa to assist in formulating plans to meet the educational needs of the natives. Dr. Jones is a former instructor of Hampton Institute and Howard University. He said there are four fundamentals in education: 1—Sanitation and health. 2—Arrestment of a small industry. 3—The decessions and sacrifices of the home. 4—Healthful recreations. In regard to the first, the doctor said that the appalling death rate of infants in Africa, as well as the high general death-rate, threatened not only native welfare, but the success of governments. The rapid extension of cotton cultivation was an example of the physical potentialities which education and African schools should first of all develop a respect for the soil and for industry. Fearful losses through intent mortality would not be elicited and a better knowledge of simple rules of cleanliness and sanitation. The physical excess of many primitive amusements explained much of the backwardness of the African people. So obvious were the difficulties in some of the orgies in some parts of Africa as to have required repression by the Government authority. Adaptation of European games in Africa through the schools would work great changes. The British Colonial Government held high rank among the Colonial Governments of Africa. The educational expenditure in British Colonial schools was much lower in the Colonies of most of the other nations. But altogether the potentialities of education in Africa had not been adequately realized. Up to the present time, many schools for native people have been maintained by missionary societies. However successful European nations might be supplying teachers to the United States, a sufficient number to influence the native population. It had been proved that native teachers could be trained to pass almost the power of human appreciation. The cultivated average of East Africa, a exclusive of South Africa, could be the almost equal that of the United States. (Chess.) Tuesday, 5 P.

OMEGA BEATS ALPHA IN NEW YORK New York City.—(Special)—One of the best played games of the season was the Epilation Chapter of the Omega Phi Phi defeated the Eta Chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha quint, to a score of 22-22 at Casino, before a crowded house. Harlem's society celebrities turned out on the afternoon of Easter Monday, starring the pitch, staring five and three field goals. The team work of the Omegas was first class, led by Bouchie Day, who received the ball and land a few points toward their victory. It was hard for the team to score, but the center for the Omega, seemed to have a monopoly on the ball at every center field. The Epillon quint kept the same distance in score from the end of the first inning, and the team relieved by Hands as guard for Eta, but did not work as easily as he generalizes when playing his regular pitch, with a score of 19-9 in favor of the Omega. Second half began with shattered prospects for the Aihua to score at all, as society finds from all parts of New York to Philadelphia and Baltimore, watched with eager hearts. However, the Eta five scored a point defeat until the end of the game.

C.-The national outlook for the Negro politics at this time is dark. Washington, D. C.-The national outlook for the Negro in politics at this time is dark. Democracies close to the administration are for from optimistic general belief among them is that President Coolidge will be as conservative in his appointment of them to possible government positions as in all other respects. Different Senators in Washington now are different from those of four years ago when colored Republicans believe that the late President Harding would surpass all former presidents of them by appointments to offices requiring the advice and consent of the Senate. It was believed then that he would publish segregated newspapers. Government灵敏, dismisses from the service灵敏, officeholders who were responsible for conditions under the Wilson administration, and enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments to the Federal Constitution as well. In April of 1921, there were gathered in the Capital the leading colored Republicans from all sections of the country. They were seeking appointments to offices with which they thought a grateful party would reward Disappointing The last four years, however, provided disappointing. The only appointments to respond were a minister to Liberia; Charles Anderson, collector of internal revenue, New York; Walter L. Cohn, collector of侵权的 H. Terrell, judge of the municipal court of Columbia; Arthur G. Free, recorder of goods of the District of Columbia, and the assistant to the Attorney General. There were also two or three minor appointments. They were as assistant to the Attorney General, New York, Newark, Chicago and Cincinnati, and a special assistant to the Attorney General in Cleveland. Three of them, however, have lately been appointed to paypals. They are: John W. Schenck at Boston, Randal Randolph at Newark, and Alexander H. Martin at Cincinnati. Besides these appointments, the Labor Department sent a commission to investigate conditions there, and an authorized personnel was put in charge to investigate Negro veterans at Tuskegee, Ala. Campaign Promises Discounted six weeks, however, after Catinn Coleville has taken the oath of office of President of the office of the People, the late campaign promises of what would be done for colored Republicans in the way of appointment to responsible offices and the abolishment of secretaries are discounted, and those through whom the promises were made, are not so hopeful of the recognition they themselves receive. With the Congress adjourned, the Capital now is like a deserted village. There is a dearth of office-seekers, and the people are beaten and bombarded the administration from long distance. Even William C. Matthews, of Boston, has turned temporarily from the office of the Hampton Telegraphy employment fund campaign. No Colored Register The first blow to the political ambitions of colored Republicans under the present administration comes with the information that the Republican Party has colored man to the office of Register of the Treasury, Aaron E. Malone, of St. Louis, Mo., and Ernest G. Tidrington, of Evans Ind., are applicants for this position. Meanwhile, Frederick C.

From the story as it was relayed by "Buster" Brown, the banjoist of the "Thumpers", Wright engaged the band to play a dance at Seaford, and Laurel, Delaware, Wednesday and Thursday of last week. Harrison Foote was engaged to transport the musicians via automobile. Mr. Dote kept his part of the obligation. Arrayed in tuxedos the band arrived at their destination and "old their stuff," for a mea-sley crowd of about ten people to bear witness to the promoter, collected the percentage from the "crowd" and departed as the barristers nave it "for parts unknown." Nobody followed the "Swallow" for the simple reason that his flight was undertaken at night. The Trumpeter brought knifed their browls, went into executive session and persuaded not with difficulty the kindly Mr. Foote to return them home. "East is east, west is west. Birds go south. They know best. Lucky's bring back home" is the chorus of the popular ditty, by the "Trumping Seven" play the refrain with a decided "BLUE" delivery. 'Lucky' At Tuskegee Luckey Robinson, the pianist and composer, visited Tuskegee Instrumentalist Roccal on April 5th in the Chapel. Mrs. Roberts accompanied her husband and assisted. "Lucky," as he is known to the show world, delivered his "Complaining," "Pork Means," "Baby Mine," "Any Old Time" and "Whip-porn will." The couple entertained at the Veterans' Hospital No. 91 for disabled soldiers. Mr. and Mrs. Roberts were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. H. Carter and were given a dinner during their stay at the restroom. REGENT All of the previous efforts of the "Bright Players" have been eclipsed by that of this week which the Easter Monday group of holiday seekers attested to of the principals and support of the choristers vied with one another for recognition. The scenic and lighting effects are also worthy of distinctive mention. Particularly is this true of the Cotton Field set. The principals to single out any of the principals for their contribution of their efforts as a whole would no doubt, be devoid of results. Like little boys on Christmas Eve, they are all good. Mac Belle Brown and Evelyn the artists have contributed to the company and contribute their very efficient bitso to the general proceedings. "Breaking Into Society" is the title of the playlet to be produced next week. Manager Bright broadcasts that the coming offering is over. Little Joe is a trickle for truth. All attendance records hung up by the Regent were shattered on the day of the projecting machine has been installed. It is a simplex costing $1,400. Fair Association Wins The suit of the Negro State Fair Association of North Carolina against the T. A. Wolfe Superior Shows was settled out of court. The litigation was brought about because of the appearance of two bands at the fair it is said. The suit was brought about for alleged balance due for exhibition space at the fair, $182.00 had been paid and the association claimed that it was still due $662.00. Call VErnon 6016 Symphony Orchestra To Play "Negro Rhapsody" Of potent interest to the colored citizenry will be the concert of the Baltimore Symphony orchestra at the Lyric next Sunday. Dovak's "New World Symphony" and Reuben Goldmarch's "Negro Rhapsody" are two of the compositions to be played. The title of the latter work is self explanatory. Attention is focused on the former because of the fact that one of the movements is based on Negro themes. Musicians deem it significant that two such numbers have been placed on the same program. ARNOLD'S 'DOPE' FROM THE T. O. B. A. CIRCUIT By E. W. F. Arnold, Director of Publicity of T. O. B. A. Nashville, Tenn. — Salem Tutt Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt, managers and owners of the far famed organization known as the "Smarter Set" company, now making a tour of the museum of these engagements, being return dates, will, according to information given out by manager Samuel E. Reevin, Chattanooga office of the T. O. B. A., open in Nashville at the Bijou, beginning Monday, April 1. We house you on hand Monday might filling every comfortable in the Bijou theatre. The bill of high-class vauduelle provided by manager Milton Starr, more than met with university favor. Every act on the program getting his and her share of applause. And we might say, though, that this week's presentation takes rank with the best. The opening was given to Donald and Leggett, formerly of "Shuffle Along" company. This being their first appearance at the Bijou. Anyway, the crowd liked them so much, they were forced to take several curtain calls. Both were excellent performers, Miss Leggett, also wears some fetching costumes all through the act. The second on the bill, no new comer to the Bijou though, was Lelia Mitchell. Lelia can take a song and the vim and earnestness she puts into it. can't help but make any audience crave for more of her work to hold her own. And if any one wants to know it, we say, that Lelia surely knows how to wear stage costumes, and they fit her like a newly glove. The last position was given to Charles Anderson, famous the world over as an Okeh record artist and yodeler, whose name is Mr. Anderson, on his appearance, was given a warm send off. His songs, were rendered in an admirable manner. His biggest hit was made on his yodeling.

"The SEA HAWK" FIRST NATIONAL FILM FAIR The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly SOUTHERN DAILY LIKES "SMARTER SET" WHITNEY AND TUTT DRAW APPROVING COMMENT By W. R. Arnold. Director Publicity of T. O. B. A. Nashville, Tenn.—The following taken from the Atlanta Constitution (Atlanta, Ga.), under date of Sunday, April 5th, 1914, paid to both owners and managers, of the "Smarter Set" company, Messrs. Whitney and Tutt. The article runs as follows: J. Homer Tutt and S. Tutt Whitney, about as ill-matched a pair for all practical purposes and by the same token about as well matched a pair for comedy or entertainment a pair for dance or entertainment, led a singing, dancing and fun-making troupe into a veritable triumph at Eight-One Decatur Street Theatre, Friday night. The occasion was the mid-night frolic offered by the management to give white amusement seekers of Atlanta asANCE to see and entertain with Malinda Sings." musical comedy with a Negro cast in a Negro theatre. The house was filled to capacity, hundreds who had been to other theatres earlier in the evening and who took advantage of the performance, attended. The entire performance was given a cordial approval and many encores. Enjoyment of the featured songs was evidenced. It was in appreciation of the two stars, however, that their approval overstepped the bounds of ordinary restraint and grew to the proportions of an ovation. Tutt is small and has a high-pitched voice that carries more comely than melody and estimating on the same basis. Whitney is a large man with a voice that makes the rafters shake when he speaks.

At last the chairman of the business committee of management appeared on the stage for a speech. The applause was hushed, he explained that the glee club had been created for winters, the manager was waiting, was willing to attend the event but had no idea it would an hour to do it.

Born and reared in Baltimore, Hudgins received his first training at the theatre of the late William H. Daly under the tutelage of Travis and other Baltimore actors. Pay Only $5 Weekly It was recalled that Eddie Green "Kike" Grasham, Euble Blake and other local boys received their early training at the above and other small theatres not many years ago.

Here he attracted the attention of Shuberts who now have his service contracted for for three years at a salary which runs well into the hundreds weekly. ROLAND HAYES 20 YEARS IN MUSIC New York.—The following are excerpts from the speeches of Roland Hayes and Walter Damrosch, white, the occasion being the presentation of the Spingarn Medal to the artist. In presenting the medal, Mr. Damrosch said, in part: "Roland Hayes is to me a striking man, but whether white or black we are all God's children, and I herewith take pleasure in handing him the famous Spingarn Medal, which is awarded to those members of the colored race who have achieved real distinction." In response, Roland Hayes said: "It is now nearly twenty years since entered upon his duties. I have conquered that my talents was the gift of an Infinite Mind and that it had been entrusted to me for a divine purpose, and that purpose was that the various racial groups that made up the human family should be served with the highest expression of that gift." Recognizing that fact, I have driven without thought of honor, save that honor which comes by achievement. "By this, dear friends, you will understand what a tremendous surprise it was to me when I learned that the Spingarn Medal Award Committee of the National Association for the Advanced Education of Colored Students possessed important to be worthy of this most significant honor. "Indeed, it is a great honor, and yet not any part of that honor can I accept, except with the understanding that the honor which the award carries is the honor of people of these United States and the world so far as my talent has been recognized, because that which you recognize of merit in my work is that which you yourself have helped to bring into a vivid, conscious existence, through me, a willing instrument."

But "Judge" Smith hacked the calibre of substitutes with which to relieve Carlicles Start Upward After the Alces lengthened their lead to 11 points by a foul and field goal at the beginning of the second half, the Carlsleib began their While the Alces were shooting 3 fouls and one field goal, the Carls made 8 field goals and came within one point of the leaders, the 72-31. The crowd was on its feet urging the Carlisles on to victory. The Carlisles were passing the ball with remarkably agility.

Wills is to receive 20 per cent of the gate, while Billy McCarny said that 10 per cent will satisfy his come-back wonder, Wondert. They all admit that Wills will have weight on Weinert, plenty of it. He is a harder hitter, too, but he means an even stronger attack on Wills's men's speed against that of Wills.

Suggs is without a doubt the most prominent contender for the world's top title, now held by Phil Rosenthal. SEGGS: BING PARADOX Suggs is a ring paradox in many ways. Only 23 now he can readily he classed as a young veteran: an old youngster; a youth in years but aged 18. Still imbued with the suppleness of sinew, and love of battle that only youth can know, Suggs also has the invaluable knowledge gained from his training in the trade himself up from the ranks of the five-dollar preliminary performers to the select circle of leaders in his class. Wise in lore of the game, equipped with a set of knives and a seasoned ring general, yet possessed of all the fire and dash of a youth of his 23 years, Suggs stands today as the most dangerous of all those aspirants for championship honors. He is a fierce fighter which he literally jumped to the top of the heap, Suggs has also had to carry the responsibilities of a husband and father. He is happily married and has two fine youngsters as he does in his ring work. Both his son, Eddie Junior, aged six, and his daughter, Isabelle, a year younger, are being educated in New Bedford's public Born In Carolina A glance back into "Chick's" biography is well worth while. One couldn't ask a better example of perseverance and determination. Born in the little town of Washington, N. C., October 9, 1901, "Chick" made his home there for the first time. He was raised with his family boys and a girl, "Chick" and few moments for pleasure in his youth. His folk moved to Newport, R. L., when he attended the University of Washington his early education in the public school of that city. "Chick's" career among the three Rivers was in the eighth grade. At that stage of affairs "Chick" was needed as a breadwinner. Reluctantly he gave up school and obtained a job as a machine gun's machine Shop. He was 14 then. Strange enough, this is where "Chick" got the punch that propelled him into the professional boxing game. Noon he met a girl named Jenna whose their pipes and swapped yarns, the younger fellows around the shop used to engage in impromptu boxing jousts. Jenna and her girlfriend regard "Chick" as a potential fastic prospect. One of them tipped off Eob Lyons Injured In Baseball Practice On Morgan Campus Monroe Lyons, a student of Morgan College, suffered a broken leg on the campus Thursday in baseball matte when a sun intaglio by the Young at one of the hases. Young Lyons is the son of the Rev. Ernest Lyons, governmental representative from Liberia to the United States, 828 X. Carey street. 24th Beats Tuskegee And Morris Brown In Twin Bill Tuskegee, Ala.—Opening their first games of the season on home soil the strong baseball team of the 24th Inning Monday and Tuesday, 3-2 and 12-3. With Vance on the mound for the 24th Morris Brown was defeated in two games by the scores of 6-3 and Arthur (Boots) Jenkins, a player on the Grace Boyles Club, was serially charged with assaulting Drudu Hill avenue, cutting his knee on a broken bottle. Jenkins was taken to the Maryland Hospital and was operated on last week. His condition is reported as improved this week. It is doubtful that he can take part in athletic events. Bowden, then matchmaker of the town's boxing club, and in due course preliminary bout. Of course 'Chick' had to do a little pardonable fabricating about his age to prevent intervention. But Bowden's intervention, Prevention of Cruelty to Children. As things turned out it was 'Chick's' intervention needed the intervention not he. Recalls First Fight Nothing makes "Chick" smile more than when he recalls this first bout. One Joe Azedo was his versus on this occasion. "I guess he was scared and I was nervous," the "Chick" said in discussing it. "He kept hanging on to me so I could all around and throwing him down until the referee disqualified me. I got my $15, though, he concluded with a grim fear that none too auspicious start he vindicated himself by stopping Young Melody in one round. Then he ventured out of Newport, Bedford to fight "Bih" Boucher, "Chick" put the North End lad away for the evening in the fourth round. His early record is just one kicker, but finally got to the stage where to mention Suger name to any aspiring ringster was enough to cause that worthy to leave the scene of the conversation ab Nevertheless, with success came financial affluence. "Chick's price per bout was jumped to $10. But after buying Bobby Langley and consequently losing his job in the machine shop (one handed machinists weren't in demand in Newport just then) "Chick's price was cut to $5. He wouldn't stop into the ring for a cent less than $15, and, so popular had "Chick" become with the gallery gods in Bob's club, the promoter readily appraised apparently unreasonable demand. Was Own Manager All this time "Chick" was his own manager, trainer and publicity agent. He was a fair manager—he simply knew what he wanted, and there—was nothing the matter with his training methods, but as a press agent he was a very successful co-founder of Chick's. "Chick's" dad was his sparing partner and up to a few years ago could give his pugilistic son a good work environment, but that statement and he ought to know. "He never was a professional boxer, but he sure was handy with his mitts," is "Chick's" way of expressing it.

Hilldale Starts Season With 12-3 Victory Over Passyunk SPECIAL REDUCTIONS ON DEPENDABLE AUTO SUPPLIES·TIRES·TUBES Philadelphia, Pa.—The Passyunk Artisans went down to defeat today in the opening game of the season at the Artisans Park, 25th and Snyder Avenue, when Ed. Bolden's Hilldale Club walloped out a 12-3 victory. Eight thousand viewed the Darbytes with their batting tops. Eddie Bassart started on the hill for the Artisans, and was the victim of a welt first inning, when the entire Hilldale team batted every thing from A. to Issard. Ten men faced the Artisan hurler, while Briggs, who opened the fracas with a single to the right, was out of the frame for four minutes out of the frame. This inning netted the visitors only six runs, virtually clinching the game. Five more runs were easily taken off Bartlett's arm in the seventh. Mackey and J, Johnson's doubles tallied the final Hildaldo marker in the eighth. Supported by three exceptional players, the game was divided in equal portions by the Darbies. Luther, the new southpaw on the Hildalde staff, started the game and the fun. For two innings he went great guns, and only the allotted six men flicking him. He was something resembling trouble for him in the third with the first tally for the Artians. Becoming excited or agitated the southwarm developes a flick for fourers during the frame that increased the Artians' total to three. CLAFLIN UNIVERSITY MEET SATURDAY Orangeburg, S.

RED CAPS Locals Take Both Ends Of Doubleheader From New Yorkers, 8-7, 17-2 Sox Manager Features Both Games With Terrific Home Run Clouts The Baldmore Black Sox took both ends of a doubleheader from the New York Caps Sunday at Maryland Park before a crowd of holiday fans, winning the first game 8-7 and the night cap which went four innings, 17-2. By hitting over the boards in both courses, Manager Beckwalt leads the Easterners in a double home runs for the season "Babe Ruth" Wilson holds second position with one circuit clock.

New Pitcher Mungin, a new right-hander from the Pacific coast, took the mound and allowed one hit, but sacrificed brought in two more runs giving the New Yorkers a one run lead.

We a handful of whites, and ring-fencing ourselves, frat, with the near ring, f hatred, and, beyond that, with the ring of hatred of the whole of Asia, for while only a few Asiatics are directly affected by this Bill, the inclusion of hundreds of millions of Asiatics from the North of Asia to the South." General Sumts asked the government to withdraw the Bill and refer the subject to a committee on which he offered to serve.

That is why there are so few good-looking men." That should settle the question. On the face of it, the negative wins.

Dear Sir, Answering your letter of March 9th, I have to advise about 5:00 o'clock in the morning of March 10th to enter your house, under circumstances which required investigation.

SALARY BILL DOES NOT APPLY; LEVIN SALARY BILL DOES NOT APPLY; LEVIN State Senator Explains Equa- Master's Club That the recently passed salary equalization bill was not intended to apply to colored teachers upon expiration by State Senator Harry O. Levin, at a meeting of the School Masters' Association last Friday. A nightly fight. Mr. Levin, the equalization is so worded and was so intended to be applicable to sex equalization only. Said the speaker, the bill part only and was intended to give white women equal pay for equal work as that given white male teachers. I am not aware of the equalization regard to color and race and from the best information that I can get, was not intended to apply to salaries of colored teachers. Mr. Levin suggested that some organization here might take up the matter so that the bill might be amended to apply to race and color when the next Legislature meets. Opinions Differ Private opinions throughout the city, however differ as to the possibilities of the measure. Some believe that it should apply, at least, to the equalization of the salaries of colored women where they are employed, and to the colored men in the same department and doing the same work.

Men and women who took the stump during the campaign and declared the country would go to the bow-wows unless LaFollette and Davis were defeated have left Washington on the long trail back home convinced that the Coolidge plums are as scarce as those of Harding and Taft. It's a pretty bitter dose for the politicians to swallow. They imagined Mr. Coolidge would be more loguacious, that he would establish other records besides the handshaking record. And so the job seekers are disappointed. They say the President receives them as graciously as ever, and in answer to requests for jobs drawls, "I'll bear that in mind." If he would only say "yes" or "no", politicians would know what to do, but the President, like Br'er Fox, "lays low and says nothing." The Washington Annual Conference of the M. E. Church two weeks ago voted for unification with the M. E. Church, South, and against admitting laymen to the annual conference. The Delaware Conference, last week, voted against unification and also against admitting laymen. The result shows that while there is a difference of opinion on the unification issue, Eastern Methodists are opposed to increased lay representation. On the unification question the Delaware Conference voted with its head. The conference knows that the Southern white brethren are not willing to meet their colored brethren on the brotherhood basis. They know that the South is hostile to our race bishops. The Washington Conference voted with its heart. It's Christian love overcame its reason on the question at issue. It hopes for Christian fellowship under unification. It hopes that the South may be persuaded by the North to forget its prejudices. On the laymen question, both conferences were in accord. They felt that increased lay representation in the annual conference is not desirable (1) until laymen are better prepared to take their place there, and (2) until it is certain that this new step will not make laymen more influential in recommending ministerial appointments. Fortunately both questions are before all conferences of the denomination as amendments to the fundamental law of the Church. Approval or disapproval depends on how all conferences of the Methodist Episcopal Church vote. The vote in the East, however, is significant. It can be assured that the race Methodists are divided on unification, but solidly united against lay representation. This was a text of a sermon by the late Rev. John Jasper of Sixth Mt. Zion Baptist Church fifty years ago. He had only to announce when he intended to preach upon it to crowd his church to the doors with both races and fill his chancel with newspaper reporters. Jasper knew his Bible from cover to cover. Its characters to him were real men and women. His imagination was most vivid, and Biblical scenes were re-enacted in his pulpit with such force and vigor as to excite his hearers to the wildest excitement. To Jasper everything in the Bible was to be taken literally. The allegories and the poetry were to him only facts. Whites came to hear his oratory. No matter to them that the ordinary school boy knew more about astronomy than the preacher, they came for a show and they got it. Efforts to capitalize the "Sun Do Move" sermon outside Richmond, however, failed. Jasper on a lecture tour found himself preaching to empty benches, and the tour soon fizzled. So it happens that the efforts of the Rev. James S. Hatcher of Richmond to revive the "Sun Do Move" sermon mean but little except an attempt to copy the Jasper publicity methods. Its sensational value is great. Its permanent value as exposition of a great truth practically nilh. One of the greatest sins of life is the sin of silence. It is convenient, comfortable, and snug to keep quiet about growing evils, yet no wrong was ever righted, no cancer ever cured by silence. Social diseases are taking a frightful toll in the race. Their ravages, while not expressed so frequently in deaths as tuberculosis, are nevertheless more malignant in that the blindness, insanity, ill health, and crime resulting from those so affected are hard to trace. This is the reason the United States Public Health Service during Health Week asked parents and school teachers to explain to adolescents the truths about sex life, because knowledge is more valuable than ignorance and prevention more efficacious than cure. With this in mind, it becomes harder each year to understand why the Douglass, High School would close its doors to Health Week speakers. The rather, it seems, Principal Mason Hawkins, would welcome community co-operation in the effort to put across successfully such an important movement. Two explanations are possible. Either Mr. Hawkins is blind to the benefits of a Health Week movement, or he is unwilling to co-operate with community interests. Either of these is sufficient to disqualify him as a competent school administrator.

Birth Control The recent reception given to Mrs. Margaret Sanger and her associates in the birth control conference in New York shows the fastly changing attitude of the men towards this newest of cuts. As few as five years ago such a conference would have produced an enlightenedive opposition of the police and the mob. But this year it only solicited favorable comment but had upon it program disgusting teachers from Kale, John Hopkins and other intellectuals of international reputation. "Fewer and Better Children" seem to be the outstanding doctrine of birth control advocates, and the belief would be allowed to give the world its future posterity. Translated into actual operation the net effect of such doctrines was of course make profound and radical changes in our society, and the ideal mating of the sexes to begin with would be predicated more upon the kind of children that would survive and thrive in the circumstances and the happiness of the couple. It is admitted that we have applied scientific knowledge in a practical way to about everything except life. The circumstances of birth are still controlled by the pockettbook, a maudlin sentiment called love and the promptings, which nature has given us. The methods of perpetuating the species. On the other hand we have standardized the breed of cattle, flowers and fruit and common sense steps in the breeding cows and horses; but in the human family we still consider it all right to bring into the world weaklings, diseased and poverty stricken to evaluate the stream of human progress. We have even set going intricate welfare machinery to help impoverished, diseased and deformed men and women produce more of their kind. This is of course the argument that from the lowly haunts of even the most modest women some might human souls. There is also a danger that when we destroy the idealism of love unions we tamper with the mandate of nature which has preserved the human family through hundreds of thousands of years, but birth control advocates all HUMAN BEINGS MIGHT BE BORN GREAT; that insane asylums and jails are monstrosities and that with no weaklings being born we could cocreate most of the evils of society.

Believing in the old time methods of raising children, this father added a check on the girl and that she had revolted and left home. This is an extreme case, but a revolt can be more for reaching effect of future civilization than all other present forces, is the children's revolt of the present era, most cases so silent that it is scarcely perceivable, yet so widespread that its influence is felt in every home, from the well regulated school system to the valley loyal, the germ of this revolt arises in our democratic school system where child life merges without the threat of different classes guard.

At the annual conference of the Atlantic region, the fumes held in Baltimore last week, Dr. H. J.

Howard Alumnus Scores Idea That Howard Prexy Should Now Head Two Big Colleges --- AMOS HOKUM SAYS EXPRESSION, the official organ of the School of Expression, of Boston, Mass., brings the startling information that Dr. James Stanley Durkees, President of Howard University, has selected the course of this New England institution. In justice to Dr. Durke's qualifications for his new position, it might be said, without contradiction, that his training and experience us an elocutionist, and his administration of such a school. Moreover, his sojourn at Howard University, where he has manifested a genius for blundering, has at least given him some insight into administrative practice. The marvel, however, is that, with the knowledge and approval of the Board of Trustees of Howard University, he should be permitted to take the course of the course of professed experience and wide-spread renown have found their time well occupied with the administration of one institution; but he has also been educated by the burdens of his Howard University comparatively light, has accepted additional administrative duties of an institution some five hundred years from his Washington engagement. Dual Presidency Think of it! President of Howard University in Washington and of the School of Expression in Boston! The very utterance of the anomaly of this dual presidency belittles the importance of the institution that does not demand the full time of its president has no justifiable place among Class A schools. One Salary - Two Jobs In fraternity, the increasing moneaching proclivities, it must be said that he is not receiving a salary from the Boston institution. Thanks to dear old Howard's generosity, the one salary pays for both jobs. But the point of serious moment is not that of remuneration; it is that of educational efficiency and expediency. Can one man administer successfully the affairs of two institutions of the School of Expression, which is separated from his office by a ten-hour trip on the train? Can Howard University's President find the time and the strength, at this critical moment, Howard's career, to run two jobs? In Daily Touch According to the official organ of the School of Expression, Dr. Durkee "is in daily touch with the School of Expression by letter or by wire and is often on his way to the University." Can it be possible that the Trustees of Howard University have granted its President permission to make these A The public health service announced that every one the United States has an colds annually.

It is tantamount to insolence to ask that institution is derailing the travelling费力. The Little Work At Howard Facts are often stubborn and prickling, but have to be, by employing Dr. Durkee as a sleender opportunity for him, and is a and reflection on Howard University. Expressed in unembellished rhetoric, the presidency of Howard University furnishes Dr. Durkee such a sleender opportunity for him, but has extra time not only to fill local pulpits on Sundays but to administer the affairs of another institution, requiring him to keep in daily touch by e-mail or by wire or by a ten-hour trip. It if develops, when Dr. Durkee makes his characteristically robust reputation, that wires and trips to Boston must be held responsible for misleading a credulous public. Should Give Full Time Dr. Durkee at Howard University at a handsome salary, nearly $10,000. As chief executive officer of that great university, he should have devotion to his job. He should be required to take necessary rest for duties that ought to prove arduous. If he is to have a part-time position, he should devote his time to the job. Howard needs a full-time President and should not be willing to share its President's time and strength with the public. All the President's time or not! Are the Trustees going to pay their President as much as a United States Senator and then administer the public through the work Howard University to keep him busy? The Trustees are thus heralding a most embarrassing message to the world. Preaching Connections Only In speaking of Dr. Durkee's wonderful career in Washington, Expression stresses his preaching connections Calvary Baptist Church during the first year of President Harding's administration, and President and Mrs. Harding were always in the congrega- All last year Dr. Durke preached at the First Baptist Church, Sixteenth street, Washington, and one of his wives was the Hon.

He has preached for Dr. Pierce, pastor of ex-President Taft, and with Chief Justice Taft as auditor. Continued On Page Seven KUM SAYS In the olden days the gallant used to kiss his lady's hand.

Kelly Miller Says Kelly Miller Says If I had to pick out one Colored man who contributed conspicuously to the moulding of the minds of men; who filled high official station with intelligence, efficiency and dignity, and who is worthiest of all to be held as an example of aspiring youth, I would unhesitatingly select Francis L. Cordozo. Others may have held higher and more spectacular station, but none excelled, if any equalled him, in that comprehensive grasp, statesmanlike poise and moderation of temper and judgment, which characterized this gentleman and scholar in politics. On last Thursday afternoon I was honored by the family of Gordon with the request to present on their behalf the award to present on their behalf the High School of Washington, D. C. The generations pass so rapidly that the generations of former days are shortly forgotten. For this reason we must morals so that the those who have done worthwhile things shall not perish from the memory of the living. It is necessary to keep them alive, the example and inspiration of those who have gone before. I felt highly honored to be designated by the family for this most pleasant and agreeable function. I was the faculty of the Dunbur High School under the principalship of this distinguished scholar and gentleman. A close friendship grew up between us by which I was honored until the day of his death. Francis L. Cordozo was one of the first American colored men to receive completed education in European universities, do not now recall any event that has affected Alexander Crummel, the noted Episcopal clergyman and scholar. Mr. Cordozo was graduated from the University of Glasco, and two years later from a theological seminary in New York, where he was assigned to 182 and assigned the pastorship of the Congregational Church in New Haven, Connecticut. After a brief service in the pastorate he was called to the theological school of Charles South Carolina, where he organized the Avery Institute and was its first principal. To have founded an institution which has functioned so effectively in the community of his county is of itself sufficient to entitle Mr. Cordozo to a high place in the memory and gratitude of his native city. But about this time he moved to New York, where he felt strongly the claim which religion and education had upon his talent and his attainment. But the political demands appealed to him as his impetus to the teachers desk and the teacher's pauper's pit, yet he felt that the plight of his people called for whatever statemanship he might possess to guide them wisely through the danseuses of the new experiment. It is the highest obligation of every educated man to help guide and direct the people along the path of wise political thought and action. Good government is the greatest curse from which the people suffer. It is therefore incumbent upon each of us to promote the one and prevent the other. Professor Cordozio's choice to enter into political life was a wise one under then existing circumstances. He throw the full weight of intellect and experience into the fight of the situation. He was undoubtedly the best equipped colored man in the reconstruction movement of South Carolina, if not of the whole South. He served as the guide philosopher and friend of the colored contingent who had not enjoyed the same advantages as himself. During the reconstruction regime he served as Treasurer and as a member of the wealth of South Carolina. In every relation of private or public trust he served with intelligence, efficiency and integrity. While Treasurer of his national government, he served for a while as professor of Latin in Howard University. In politics and government, Professor Cordozio was not merely a functionary, but a factor. In such offices as colored men are appointed to now-day positions, he has with no controlling relation to the situation. But not so with Professor Cordozio and his colleagues of that day and time. He was to pick out one colored man who contributed compulsively to the moulding of the minds of men as to the vital significance of the issues suddenly thrust upon them, who killed the man who was the most efficient and dignity, who came thru the ordeal with unimpaired integrity, and who is worthiest of all to be held up as an example of aspiring youth. I am to be told that Professor L. Cordozio. Others may have held higher and more spectacular station, but none excelled, if any equalled him, in that comprehensive grasp, state, temperament and judgment which characterized this gentleman and scholar in politics. The reconstruction experiment failed, as it was bound to do. The civil was had heated public feeling to an alarming degree, and the reconstruction experiment was the expression of this feverish mood. As soon as the national temperature fell to its normal registry and the national pulse was raised, the abnormal regime was bound to fail. We are accustomed to hear much concerning the corruption, scandal and grotesqueness of reconstruction times. We are accustomed to reckening these things. This indeed is their chief political stock in store. They ever and anon appeal to the most migrant incidents of these times to the authorities, and heir his first dues under the constitution and the laws. All of the unfortunate shortcomings of reconstruction can be easily accounted for by the situation. The circumstances can never recur, nor can the concomitant evils be repeated. Political wisdom in the South calls for a forward rather than a backward approach, and have come a long since that time. In spite of all of the imperfections of the reconstruction regime, actual or alleged, it cannot, however, be established free schools for all of the children of the Francis L.

FUDGE South, white and black alike; they inaugurated democratic methods where oligarchic procedures had previously held sway; and they never enacted a single statute that would have affected the federal constitution and of the democratic ideal. This is a great deal more than can be said for the types of government that preceded and succeeded them. The Negro must not allow himself to be a slave; the bare mention of the days of reconstruction. The part that the Negro played was not wholly without honor and praiseworthiness. Professor Cordes contributed his full share in the circumstances which we should delight to extol. Old Regime Passes Nor should we ever cease to hold up to the rising generation the memory of these things. The young people never seen men in high public station sustained by the suffrage of the people. It is as much as we can do to make them believe that Negro once sat on a chair. Senate House of Representatives peers among their equals. Seeing is not only believing, but it inspires confidence in the possibilities of the community to which these celebrities belong. The average Negro youth feels that high governmental function is normal to the white race, but foreign to the Negro. The present policy of the government is refusing to appoint and to give to the Negro governmental station is for the fixed purpose to impress upon Negro youth that they must not aspire to such things. Government is considered a white institution, which the Negro makes a misogynistic mosaic. The Negro race must be impressed with its inferior political complex. But we must reemphasize that We do not insist that President Coolidge, or any administration, should appoint Negroes to office of high charm. We must also recognize the real imagination of Negro youth. They are as worthy American citizens as any others, and therefore should not be treated as political outcasts. The Cordozos hanging on the walls of the Dunbar High School will serve as a perpetual reminder of the fact that a Negro may hold high and important public position with high intelligence, dignity and integrity. Returns To School Work Upon the downfall of the reconstruction governments, the overthrown-political leaders naturally enough sought to restore Othello, their occupation was gone, and they must pastures new. Professor Cordozo followed in this train. For a while he was in the government departments. But he soon felt the urge of his old calling. In 1884 he was chosen principal of the colored high school of Washington, with his wont dignity and efficiency for twelve years. It was under his administration that this institution was transformed from an illiterate to a recognized secondary school on a footing with the high schools of the country. In the palmy days of reconstruction politics engrossed the energies of practically every ambition and intelligence of his race. We are prone to condemn this political obsession when viewed under retrospective light. But at the time politics furnished the most at- But times have changed. Today we are prone to discourage an intelligent and ambitious young Negro who decides to enter politics as a career. The field is limited and the prospect gloomy. Any young man must be willing to put out of his calling. There is little likelihood of a sustained living for the Negro who enters upon a political career. Prejudice and custom bar him from holding office. Political Field Limited Of the thousands of white men who are playing the political game, the poor must out of their career. The poor Negro must depend upon subordinate apolitical places where he dares not call, but must be a few, a few, or a few, or ordinarily known as bosses, who play the game from above. They are able to manipulate their power, which is furnished by their independent business or private fortune. There are few or Negroes in this class. They should hardly advise a Negro to engage in politics as a career under; present forbidden condition of things. And yet is it necessary that any group should have its advocates and spokesmen in the office, the curing of personal office is of no social advantage unless the applicant seeks such appointment in order that he be vantage ground to serve his people. Men of independent position or private fortune will do well to devote the necessary time and energies for the necessary time and energy for the less such interests are looked after by some interested and competent persons they will lapse by default. No more than a few of them are worthier or nobler alm than the pursuit of manly American politics. Let us honor Professor Francis L.

Were tied to treads by eating ice cream Embarrassing Moment Four or five months after our marriage we entertained everyone wanted everything to go off just right. My husband liked to tease me—does yet, for the sake of the family. I told jokes about my housekeeping. I tried to stop him, without effect. Still with no results. Finally the dear, old minister remarked, "Look at me where you have kicked me!" looked for a small hole to craw into, but there was none. About 18 years after this incident we entertained the first minister, but they did not know we knew him also. Among other things, he told them by the first minister of the young married couple, and how he attempted to discipline her husband under the table. Then all had, a good deal. Cleveland, Ohio.

If as children we had learned, easily and naturally, a few thousand words are necessary to be learned, should now be able, under most circumstances, to speak without hesitation or embarrassment, to enlarge our vocabulary, by setting ourselves the stint of learning words, trying vainly to express thoughts and feelings, to wear out our eyes, were worn out by use we should soon find ourselves greatly at a loss to carry on our work, and when we make bold to use a word now and then that is not worn threadbare, we should not be self-concerned, but if these words were inherent from childhood, we should not be self-concerned in their An interesting way for the child to get a large, practical vocabulary is thru the book "The Big Book," who can tell or write the greatest number of synonyms for words taken from some familiar verse, such as: "Barnyard," "Went to the cupboard," To get her poor doggie a bone; The cupboard was bare, "The cupboard," And so the poo zoogle had none" Synonyms for "went"; walked, ran, hurried "cupboard"; Kitchen-cabinet, pantry, store-room. "Got?" (which the children should be taught never to use with hair) articulate "Bare". Empty, stripped. Of course, there are many others. Behind the child should always say what's true. And speak when he is spoken to, when he is talking to, at least as far as he is able. "True". honest, reliable, good. "Rust". honest, unreliable, chase. "Behave". act, appear. "Mannerly". ladylike, gentlemanly, The little ones enjoy the game and gain fluency of speech unconsciously. They learn to use words which they have used must be defined, and without using a derivation, they will not study after the game is over shows them other words which they might not know.

Translated from the French and Copyrighted by Thomas Seltzer, New York In the distance, here and there, fires were kindled. One guessed at the huts and their fire species, piped, or crooked, or shrilled. Djouma, the little yellow dog, barked and barked. This was his stupor? What was this anguish? Like a canoe grazing the waterplants—oh, how gently it glided across the cloudy—behold lpen, the mug. It was already six sleepes old. Three days before the festival of the galanz there was a violent nado which finished the wrought by a season of disastrous There had been no warning signs to presage its coming. The day had risen upon Grimair like other knights, the golden at first, then warm and sunny. The wind, gentle, and neither cool nor salty, had stirred the crowd. The gobolokos coed, and which the gobolokos coed, and which the bokoubokos and the lhousas, which differed from the golokos, the first only in size, the second only in the green of their Above the fields of millet, above the trees and kagas, the kites in growing numbers sailed and wheeled, never tiring. Occasionally one of them dropped plumb upon its prey, then rose on high again with slow large flappings of its wings, as if paddling the air, and soared into the distance, far far. The weather was neither cool nor sultry. Along the Bembe and the Pombo the monkey-folk amused themselves, the tagouin cutlery, the cutlery making their strange grimaces. The n.gouhilles had fun like a black-and-white waist-cloth, and the tagouins seemed always to be crying, their call sounded so exactly like the imitation of a baby's The monkeys scampered off in alarm before a swarm of bees, which had started up in pursuit of a honey-eyed monkey, as a second one heard nothing but the humming of the bees. The rustle of the leaves in the wind produced the illusion that the same spot, but they were already far away. The weather was neither cool nor salty. They bokoudebas and the gokotokos coed. From the villages hidden on the hills, from the valleys sheltering other villages came monotonous chanches of the dry riverbed, like the dry numlo; while in the motionless sky the kites wheeled in still greater numbers. Macoude, the fisherman, came late in the morning, his sister his brother, Batouala, whom he saw only rarely. He had found two large fish in his net and had come to invite Batouala to share his meal with him. Macoude and Batouala, having the same father and mother, were closer kin than a man's children usually allowed, could buy several women, and have children by each of them. The three started off, walking single file like ducks. She was waist deep, walking side by side, custom old as the Negro race itself dictated single file. Djouma, ears down, followed them. . . . There are some people who act very vicious, Indouvoura, one of Badadhua's wives. She was jealous and sensual, and it never failed to make her angry to see Bissibingui leave her for Yasiguiu. "Yes . . . there are," she continued. "To be sure there are—Nobody need listen who doesn't want help. If people will assume superior air, won't they, Yasiguiuja?" General laughter. That was one for Yasiguiuja, who was not liked. She plied. "But I don't know whom you're referring to. Probably that Nigap woman who married a pow-wow she's certainly got no goodness, she's certainly got no compassion—the low beastly things she gives herself up to. However, I excuse her. She was the wife of a man. That explains everything." "The bitch! The insulting bitch!" cried Indouvouca. "The way she insults me! The womb of the woman who bore you was rotten. You're a woman! You're a woman! Don't say a word! Don't dare to open your mouth, or I'll jump down your throat." "Why bellow, old dear? I not deaf. Shall I tell you a few things, you bore you was rotten. Ah, yes. Shall I break this woman's dirty face? I tell Eutouala that you deceive him with Bissbibbul. I'll tell him. . . ." "Yes, yes, yes. I beg pardon, Indouvouca. I've known you so many times I bore you was rotten were a Ngapu and had been a white man's woman. I need I assure you that I didn't refer to you? Everybody knows how virtuous you are, and no one better than this Bissbibbul you mentioned. He knows you manage to repulse men." Indouvoura leapt at Yassiglouinda, ready to beat and bite and scratch. Her companions held her back. She came up and plaited plain to the commandant, she would tell everybody that Yassiglouinda had taken a yorro to keep from haying children. She would ask the elders to make her drink poison to prove it. But after all what was there to prove? She said no. Pff! She snapped her fingers at him. One didn't go with a man who had the kassirf! "When a person can't get what he wants to eat, he says he's not hungry. He wants to eat for that goat, Bislinguul, if he's good what you say he has, I'm sorry for you, my poor dear." Now the laughs turned against Indouvoura. "You stuck someone stronger than yourself," she said. stronger than yourself" she said. "See what jealousy brings one to, Indouvouru. When you took Bliss- abdouu, was I jealous?"

'Enough for to-day. rather eat this ammunition' buba, that's better, eating, eating, men, dancing, tobacco, they are the only real things." these are the general merriment greeted this morning. Little by little the sky had turned an aaken grey, then the color of lace. The wind blew up, sudden, sultry. The files began to buzz, the files, the files. One by one the birds fell into silence. One by one the kites disappeared. Great wan clouds rose from behemoth haganes. They came blower at the will of the aerial currents, piling up, gathering in denser and denser masses. Presently the hidden force drove the birds to the Riembe. Forked streaks split the whole mass of them. And the echoes rumbled with the detonations of the thunder. And the mats were piled into the huts. The blue smoke hung stationary over the roofs and encircled the outer walls. They stirred. The clouds covered the low sky. Now, motionless, they lowered over the Bembe, the Dela, the Deka. They lowered over the villages of Yakijli, Soumna, the villages of Baju, the villages of Bandapon, Tamande, Yakada, Gratabga, Qualade, Poumara, Jangakura; over the whole of that green country which the Bombe suppressed the life of the day, they held an imminent threat, they awaited a signal which did not come. . . Yonder, yonder, between the clouds, they changed into steel-colored bands that united heaven and earth. The rain. Driven by the same clouds, clouds upon the Bombe it rushed upon the Bombe it as it came on stronger, it covered the ground it had conquered with spraying mists. Gunououou! At last! A great gust of wind from no one knew The leaves of the banana-trees dashed against each other. There were many small green and yellow singbass and the jettweeure (frogs and toads) calling to the rain. A great howl, and the wind came on brushing the leaves wrong side up. The leaves were splayed and the lianas,tearing the foliage, sweeping the ground, lifting the red dust. It passed. it fled. it grew weaker. The shriek of it died down, scattered altogether. Where had it gone to? Silence again. The troubled silence of the uproar that had turned stale. The wind again. And the rain coming on, on, on. The wind brought the pleasant smell of wet earth. One rumble followed another. The rain grew nearer and nearer. The rain fell (the scattered drops that pattered upon the dry rocks and brush. The air turned cooler, the wind rose. The air came from instant to instant it gained in fury. And the rain came down in floods, in lorries, in warm heavy dresses, in close, indefatigable, irresistible, in close, indefatigable, the Bembe, it fell upon the Dels, it THERE ARE OTHER HAIR- DRESSERS BUT ONLY ONE Poindexter HAIR CULTURIST MANUFACTURER —Use— Mme.

They stripped the leaves from the trees, broke off branches, snatched away the roots. Moisture falling on the vast area heated tract rose in a heavy, impenetrable vapor that hung low upon the land. Water sought to gather and swelled, traced out channels, leapt in cascades, and formed, then branching out the slopes into the canyon. The donovoro hissed their course. And the rain coming down faster and faster and harder and harder, gutted the roofs, staved the trees, crushed the leaves out the fire, washed down the water. The forked lightning leapt. The sharp cracks of thunder, the trees of trees bearing down other trees in their fall, crushed the water in the battered the vapor of the fire, washed down the food of heaven. The tornado lasted all day, all night, and the whole of the water, until the hour when the sun had just passed the zenith. The wind gradually died down. The rain, however, continued to fall, but it was light and fine and cool. From the brush, which in place had been turned into swamps, creaked the youngbas whom the rain delighted—the youngbas and the heureous croaked. When the grass is flooded and all the little dips in the ground become pools, the toads and frogs begin to sing. Bull-frogs, you take the bad. Your voices are a deep, regular bus. Take the lead: the lesser frogs will join in. The jetteureus and youngbas are rolled. They were glad of the rest. In wet weather they were really masters of the world. They sang: "Ka-ak . . . ka-ak . . . it-tily. . . . ti-tily . . . kee-ex . . . kee-ex . . . Kide-kidi . . . ki-kidi . . . dak . . . dj-ah . . . Tinkling of cattle-bells, thump of pestles, clank of javelin on javelin, involuntary retchings, loud, muted, harsh, discordant—the croaking of all sorts of toads and all sorts of frogs made yangba.

Slowly the moon emerged from the hills and lands and station of stars—yellow, shining and quite round, without a halo. The stars sparkled. That was all they was—the stars, thousands and thousands of stars, and the moon, thousands and thousands of stars, and the moon, houhou ouhou. The frogs grogged eternally. The clouds chirped, and the cockles strummed. A few frogs with their green浸水鳃 Everything else slept. It was night. The wind was soft and slow. It was cold.

The station was made in reply to the minister recently in which he re- famed the famous text of the late Rev. Jasper Joseph do move and do move in fat." The Rev. Hatcher's statement given to the Preston News Service states that is the past which has raised $150 every month that has raised $150 every month without "giving an entertainment or selling an oyster." He says in his book, "The Sun's Motion" "I have no quarrel with science nor scholarship. I gladly welcome all that investigation and school ship can do of the days of Apostacy, and But I will not stand by like an abject coward and permit my marvelship of the miracles of the Bible without protest. If God made a mistake by the mouth of the Holy Spirit and the holy prophets and sets, goes down, goes back, etc., it is possible that he made a mistake in saying that he that is the Holy Spirit Ghost scribes motion to the Sun more than 30 times in Gods Holy Book. Moses, who was learned in the Bible and with whom God called face to face" (Acts 7:22, Ex. 33.11) affirms the motion of the Sun SEVEN and Knocked of Egyptians Recalled "Remember that the Egyptians were so skilled in that that they were learned in the desert and the Pyramids in the delta of the Nile with such geometrical and scientific precision that of the stones, and after a time of more than 4,000 years they have not set nor cracked the glass, the glass glass, and enamble their death so as to prevent their death so as to prevent infraction.

I believe the Mosaic account of creation, Jonah and the Fish, the burning bush, Balaam's Ass, euloguer asses than Balaam's have spoken and written also the inmaculate conception, the virgin birth, the bodily resurrection of Jesus, His present advocacy, and His imminent return to the air to catch away His church, and to the earth. Olt. Olivet, If you would know the geographical and scientific location, Zeiss, 14:1-4, a general tell of fire and briskness for all who wilfully reject God's offer of His Son Christ Jesus as an atronement for their sins."

Jesus Says The Sun Moves "And, now listen prayerfully, Jesus (Christ our Lord, who is 'The Word,' who created all things." John 1:1-13, read brother) light, life, men, heaven and earth; Jesus who is the very God of God, who is so very self-reflexive that He speaks to the world, he listens to all he loves and three fishes and five beaches are enough to feed 5,000; who prays and a dead man leaps from his grave: Jesus, who died, descended into Hell, preached unto the spirits in prison," then rose from the dead, ascended up into Heaven and sits now at the right hand; and God, that He is, makes the great Day of God (God) maketh His sun to RISE on the will and on the good, etc. (Matthew 5:45.) To Repeat Sermon April 26 "I have nothing to be ashamed of as long as I am in the company of Moses, Solomon and Jesus, and speaks their common tongue." "I am expecting to call to meet our Lord Jesus in the all at any man, but he has not. He tarry and will it, I am to repeat this same sermon at the City Auditorium on Friday, April 26, at 3:30 p. m.

Second Coming Of Christ In Acts, the first chapter and verses 10-11, we read that while the disciples stood gazing after Christ, who had ascended, two angels appeared and told them that in the same manner the Holy Spirit had brought the disciples had thought the Christ would set up his kingdom soon, if not immediately, but Christ was to leave them and return. He came to earth, took on the dash of sinful man, went thru the cycle of His death, and that man might live. Those who have remained true to God and to his holy will, will at the last day be raised. The coming of Christ will not be in secret. "Every eye shall see Him." He will come with a shout and with the truth. The Scriptures say, "He will come with joy, and his joy will be beyond all joy, and his joy will be afraid. His appearance will be a blessed and living hope. Then, too, at his coming every man shall be given a reward according to his work. God has given to us a commission to go into all work. He will do it, and must do our part in carrying out our mand. When this task is done, then will the Prince of Peace appear and gather his loved ones home. Friends, we are ready for that great and terrible day of the Lord Let us cry for the rocks and the mountains to fall on them. May be a mong the redeemed who have done the will of God and as Paul says "have finished out tasks and are ready to receive the crown of life. In Acts, the first chapter and verses 10-11, we read that while the disciples stood gagging after the first appearance of Christ, the same manner of His ascension would Christ return. Previous to this announcement, the disciples had thought that Christ would set up his kingdom soon, if not immediately. But Christ The coming of Christ will not be in secret. "Every eye shall see Him": "He will come with a shout and with the trump of God." Altho the Holy Scriptures describe his coming as a terrifying occurrence, the Christians will not be afraid. His appearance will be a blessed and living hope. Then, too, at his coming every man shall be given a reward according to his work. God has given to us a commission, to go into all the world and preach his gospel, and we must do our part in carrying out his commandment. Then, will the Prince of Peace appear and gather his loved ones home. Friends, are we ready for that great and terrible day of the Lord? Let us be found doing his will day by day. Do not let us be among those who have done the will of God, but among the redeemed who have done the will of God and as Paul says, "have finished out tasks and are ready to receive the crown of life."

THE DOCTOR SAYS YOU'LL HAVE TO STAY HERE ANOTHER WEEK WELL, COME ON! WHADAYA-STOPPING FOR? Business and Industry A Weekly Review Of Labor and Business Conducted by William N. Jones Get Farms; And Keep Them One of the weak links in the economic status of the Negro groups in this country, is their lack of permanent hold on the basic industries of the country. These basic industries include mining, manufacturing and farming. It is estimated that were the group suddenly thrust upon its own resources; given the exact amount of soil it possessed place on the earth, the population would of necessity dwindle to about one-fourth its present size. necessity dwindle to about one-fourth its present size. We probably own enough farm land to raise the actual necessities of life, but we do not own enough coal lands to run a single large factory; nor do we own any of the great basic factories that produce clothing, machinery, finished food products, meat packing plants or luxuries. In the present state of competitive labor we hold our own through wages. It is not out of the realms of possibility that economic factors may in some future date so shape themselves that the race may be thrown more on its own basic resources. A world war twenty or fifty years hence in which world color lines may be more prominent may upset the present economic balance to such an extent that 75 per cent of the present wages may be cut off. In such a catastrophe, what would be the fate of the race? While in a general way our leaders urge the purchase of farm lands and the deevelopment of business, but there has not yet developed any definite program to make the group independent in the basic industries. This can be worked out to a certainty and even if there is little probability of such a castrophe, it would not hurt if the group owned sufficient farm lands to raise its necessities; enough factories to produce the wearing apparel, farm machinery, and household necessities, of 112,000,000 human beings. Migration has to some extent upset the growing tendency to acquire farm lands, but every effort should be made to not only keep the farms we have but acquire more. NAT. URBAN LEAGUE INDUSTRIAL PROGRAM T. Arnold Hill To Head National Program Of Labor Expansion STANDARDIZE AGENGIES Plans To Guide Migrants And Open New Employment Fields The National Urban League has announced the inauguration of its Industrial Program which has been under contemplation for the past year for the purpose of conducting a strenuous nation-wide campaign for larger opportunity for Negro workers. The director of this program is T. Arnold Hill who for the past 8 years has headed the Chicago Urban League and Western Field Secretary of the National organization. Mr. Hill whose headquarters are in Chicago, has a successful administration in Chicago and the West. In Chicago, he developed the League from its incipiency to a major organization with outstanding authority on the problems of race relations and the Negro in industry in social work circles regardless of color. During his riot, he was instrumental in bringing together the leading white and colored citizens of Chicago resulting in the Chicago Commission on Race Relations which published a report which he considered the most important race conditions yet presented. Before leaving Chicago, Mr. Hill was a member of the Executive Board of the Council of Executive Agencies, and the Social Workers' Mr. Hill is 38 years of age, a graduate of Virginia Union University and has specialized in the social sciences at New York University. The program of the Industrial Department will be as follows: 1—To standardize and coordinate the employment agencies of the league. 2—To work directly with large industrial plants both in cities where the league is established and the communities remove from such facilities for work and for advancement in the job for Negro workers. 3—To help through available channels of information to ascertain proficiency of Negro labor and to use the existing agencies of publicity and placement to direct Negro labor, including migrants, to those points where they are most needed. Negro labor will most easily be adjusted. The Department of Research and investigations of the League, Chas S. Johnson, director, is cooperating with the Department of Agriculture by making an investigation of the experiences of Negroes with Trade Unions throughout the United States. The Department of Agriculture is immediately be placed at the disposal of the Industrial Department. Tuesday, 5 P. M., Dead Line KER URB Education In The Hospitals ZATSO?

SHAFER PACKING CO. EMPLOYS 40 PEOPLE SHAFER PACKING CO. EMPLOYS 40 PEOPLE Biggest Baltimore Packing Plant Has Champion Hog Sticker LABOR TURNOVER CMALL Smoke Meat Department Expert With Firm More Than 40 Years A champion hog sticker and an export in the smoke house department who has been an employee of the firm since 1885 are among the 40 colored baltimore's largest meat, packing plant. Shafer Packing Company employs 286 men and women, 40 of whom are colored. The firm, which is located at 1000 E. 10th Street, plays its employees an average wage of 50 cents per hour, but some of the employees, because of expert skill in some lines receive much Has Expert Sticker Charles E. Manger, a superintendent of the plant, told a reporter for the Afro-American that colored embalmed meat gave excellent services and there was little labor turnover among them. One man, the sticker, is an expert in his line, and the importance of the fact that he may save the firm from $200 to $300 per day by the deft manner in which he uses his knife in one single operation. John Koehler, who in the smoke meat department has been with the firm since 1885 and Samuel Evans, a member of the Mt. Zion smoke meat department since 1883. Other men with the company more than 10 years include Daniel Holmes, 88 Harlem avenue, John Barley, 88 Harlem avenue, Raymond Lewis, 1800 Pennsylvania avenue and Taylor Carey, 2429 Buchanan street. Donning a white apron, the reporter for the AFRO was allowed to follow the process of killing and preparing meat for the home in a large plant, where nearly 500 hogs were killed. After being weighed and watered, the future hams, pork chops and sausage, are allowed to rest one hour before execution. They are then given a shower bath and driven to a pen-from which they enter the death procession, at one point of which they are shackled by the hind leg to a revolving wheel which automatically throws the shackle over a steel pole over which they slide past the "sticker". With the deft stroke of a surgeon he stabs them opening a slit in the jugular vein. After hanging, for six minutes they are lowered into a vat of scalding water, 40 porkers being lowered at one operation. Then they reach a machine which automatically scrapes off the hair and from which they go to a moving table where they are further scraped and singed by workers as they pass by. They are then taken, on steel poles, and pass a V. S. veterinary inspector who cuts out certain glands to ascertain the physical condition of the animal. The lungs, heart, liver and spleen are among the organs inspected before it is passed for use. If fund imperfect in any way it is sent to the fertilizer kettle. Perfect animals are passed on for cutters and from there to the various departments where they are wrapped and packed for market. WEEKLY SURVEY Slight improvement in the employment rate in the beginning of this week. In Business circles Easter shopping was about normal, according to merchants. Although real estate sales are up, the number of vacant houses and houses for sale increases. This condition is also reflected in the lower payment terms quoted on sales. Mr. John R. Carey, of the Home Maker's Building and Loan Association, has continued growth and the Southern Life Insurance Company recently taken over by a group of business men headed by Alan, has shown stimulated activity. A statement from R. O. Pickard, general agent at the Sears department, agrees that he has orders for $00 berry pickers in the southeastern strawberry fields of North Carolina, shown an unusual demand from $2.50 to $4 per day is being offered.

Mr. Editor: As our haven in time our trouble, we are writing to ask you to find out why, when mentioning play- grounds to be constructed nothing was said about even one for col- ored children? The children in East and South Baltimore have none. At Federal Hill Park we notice the colored children are permitted the use of the play-ground at times; but at City Springs Park, in East, Baltimore, the colored children are kept under the impression that be is a playground and are not in there and if attendant, forgets and lets them, in they have to sit on benches assigned or get out; while the equipment is used by the children of whom they are and those who are not naturalized citizens. It is too far and too much car fare for them to go to Drudr Hill Park. We hope that you will be pleased. We hope M. AVONIA D. BROWN. Mrs. AVONIA D. BROWN 159. W. Franklin. St. WOODSTOCK REPAIRING BALTIMORE 418 PARK AVENUE REBUILDING TYPEWRITER SUPPLIES EXCHANGE BALTIMORE, MD Sept.12 Heard and Seen In Baltimore Ralph Matthews Here is a crack from a wise guy. Don't plan a hot time for more than a hour ahead because somebody will sure turn the daunted down. Why do we drop this proverb? Well it's just like this for one year we had been planning for pade for Holy Saturday. The morning we saddled in the office clock full of glee. Was there our rainbow faded. A. The city editor met us at the inlet and showed us a map of Baltimore, adding the info that we were to park on one of the corners and watch the marathon race. Here was an opportunity to catch phenomena on a windy street just because they were celebrating health week. We beared along the cement wall to get something to happen. It dilled, a bird dashed around the intersection, she chased him and asked him what his number was. This wanipus gripped that the old have any number to catch, not cop caught him he would have one. We let this gup lone by and began to nurse over the happenings of the week. Health Week was confined to broadcasting by a lot of local and long distance blabbers. Their idea of a health program is making a long winded speech telling you not to buy It seems that all the good grub like our grandfathers used to eat carrles a death wallop. They are right too, because all the people who used to overload their stomachs back in 1776 are dead, now and we are still living. According to these Ph. D.'s: If you eat more than a rolled oat for breakfast you brain will get insulted and quit. No self-respecting brain is going to work side by side with a stomach crammed full of corned beef and cabbage. One doc made a speech in which he declared that each person should gulp two quarts of milk a day. The president of the dairy heard him and sent milk up 12 cents on the drop. It was learned later that the doctor was a stockholder in the company. Another medico stated that every body should take setting up exercises. One of the auditors got sore. He said that he had been setting up all night for forty years and it didn't do him a bit of good. A little professional gentleman contention arose between the dentists and the chiripidists as to whether falling hair caused the teeth or but cutting off the toes. The argument was won in favor of the foot as the chiripodist knocked the dentist down the stairs. The victory was only temporary however, as the dentist came back and knocked the toe doctor's teeth out. Science is still baffled on this great question. One guy declared that the tale about an apple a day keeps the doctor away from you said a doctor had been coming to his wife while he was at work, he ate a bushel of apples and the doctor hasn't stopped coming yet. The medical men are a lot of hypocrites. They make a speech on how to keep well and then get mad with you if you don't get sick. It an ill wind that blows good. It an ill wind that blows you a whooping cough that blows the doctor a gang of ten spots. When we went back to the office after thinking these things over, the editor asked for our report on the race. We told him that we only saw a gang of ginks running past us and that they had passed us all day. And then wouldn't have known the blamed thing if it had passed us.

He was born a slave on the island in 1790, and in 1804 he was taken to Richmond, and worked in a tocoe house. He was a missionary as overseeer, and through his remarkable thrift he was able to buy the land. He was self-taught, qualified for the ministry, and in 1821 sailed for Liberia to carry the gospel to his brethren. He was the leader of the colony and passed out in 1825. 187. Who was Brandywine Sampson? When the cause of American freedom seemed darkest and Washington's, inadequate troops were forced to fight a harassing battle. General Howe and his well-equipped British soldiers attempted to take Philadelphia, Washington hindered and delayed Howe's Philadelphia attempt, but when forced to give open battle at Brandywine his troops were too small to stem the tide. Here Howe attempted a crushing blow, but the valor of the patriots was undaunted. A giant Nogro named Sampson, discarded his gun, and grabbing a scythe swept his way through the British works, and relieved his imperiled comrades, and his General. He earned his sobriquet "Brandywine" and was immortalized in Skinner's poem. Lincoln Balto. Club The Baltimore Club of Lincoln University gave a special program under the auspices of the Allen C. E.

SOCIA/ NEWS The Misses Griffin and Washington surely had no idea of the series of parties that they would suggest by the delightful entertainment that they gave for the Young Hall girls not so long ago. On Saturday evening at 7 p.m., Mrs. Lupus H. Carter entertained the girls at cards. Mrs. Carter is adored by all the girls and the prospects of having her as hostess inspired them so much that an onlooker would have been shocked to hold the beauty and taste of apparel displayed by the guests; shocked not because the girls appeared in costume, but because they appeared so bewildered, attained when the knew that none of the male contingent of the co-educational institution would be present. The first feature of the evening was a word-game, won by Miss Roxie Pinkett. The most successful card played proved to be Miss Vandola Henderson who was awarded a photograph Album, Miss McCraken was awarded a painting, resulting in a white bar of soap. The collation was especially appetizing. The menu consisted of chicken salad, saltines, tea, fresh strawberries and cake, almonds, mintr and peanuts. Those present other than the upper-class girls were Misses McCraken, Moore, Mary Wilson, and Ethel McCraken. Most of the girls as being a special treat. She gave the party extra life and unsurpassed enjoyment by her playing and singing. Misses Hearns, Wellman and Claire spent Sunday afternoon visiting relatives in Govans.

Page Twenty GAY ATTIRE FEATURES BIG EASTER CROWD Many Thousands Throng Sts. And Parks Beneath Sunny Skies SERVICES GROWDED Pastors Report Biggest Attendances Ever Recorded In Local Churches Under clear skies and ideal weather, thousands of Baltimoreans observed the gayest and most pleasant Easter Sunday. Contrary to the usual prediction the day dawned warm and cloudless and from early morn, when thousands of churchgoers took, adventures of the services, until late evening Drud Hill avenue, Maculloh street, Madison avenue, together with South and Northeast Baltimore thenceghores were crowded with easily attired pedestrians Although there was no fashion show as has characterized some of the previous Easter Sundays, noceries were a popular feature. Especially in the Druid Hill avenue church district could be seen the riot of new and fashionable adornment in keeping with this season. The church district were powder blue, bena mild green, sand and nashes of roses. The severe straight line was adored to inlay in the walls, and satin was still short with a tendency to match hose and footwear. Of the spring coat seen on the streets, bengaline, oire and satin were all in favor. The reporter noticed among very smart and new creations that a McCullough street Marron appeared in a marnish tailored coat of powder blue with a short belt across the back. But the ensemble suit stood out most prominent of all amidst the midday and afternoon shades. Wearers worn included the conventional satin with silver of rhinestone buckles and the new golden brown with tiny insect hues. The dresses were brown and patent leather styles. The headwear this season included the small flower trimmed hat of Gergebret and swayed in the breeze with slightly drooping brim that resigned another "shepherdess" season. This crestion was attractively trimmed with soft ribbon or an immense flower on the left arm. The real novelty in dress came, however, in children's attire. Small girls were dressed in some cases ensured by a large bow on long bell bottomed trousers and carried canes. Churches Crowded Practically every minister in the city reported capacity sessions in the church. Rev. W. A. M. E. church, the pastor, Rev. W. H. Thomas, preached to more than 5000 people and two concerts under direction of Miss Gergebret Fisher and the rest of the day's program. At Bethel 300 are said to have been turned away when 500 crowded into the building at the morning Easter offering of $425 was given. Besides the regular session by Rev. J. O. Morley, at Ebenezer A.

Clip the whole series of 14 and have what America's best minds consider a solution of the rave problem. In the first part of these articles Professor MacDougall's opinion was given regarding race amalgamation, another current issue, and expressed his opinion on this question. Prof. Albert E. Hooten is one of the faculty members of the University of Heidelberg. He was a Rhodes scholar to Oxford, 1810-1813, where he received a diploma in anthropology. He has been instrumental in somatization research. Besides, he has contributed many papers on physical anthropology and kindred subjects. Prof. Hooten wrote me in part as follows: 1. *Amalgamation between whites and Negroes will go on, as it always has gone* since the process of assimilation because of the form of the new primary crosses occur and because the whites so largely outnumbered the Negroes. Ultimately we might expect the entire population to show signs of Negro admixture in the same way that whites show more or less traces of the Dravidian admixture. But this process would take a very long time in this country, because of the preponderance of whites and their reinforcement by immigration. "2.1 I see no reason why one should anticipate such disasters as a result of such slow and almost imperceptible amalgamation as must necessarily take place. "3. I neither oppose nor advocate it (amalgamation). After we have studied the results of race mixtures between whites and Negroes 'shall be seen as an advantage in its advantages or disadvantages. "4.

I do not feel that there exists any satisfactory method of appraising the comparative mental abilities of different bees, but press opinions as to racial superiority or inferiority until some real basis of knowledge has been laid down. The prime scientific point of view the anthropological study of the Negro in the U. S. and A. study of the results of the anthropological study of the certain that anything scientists can learn would have great efficacy in setting the race problem. It were discovered that race mixtures in many Negroes would be underestimated types many whites would be pleased and most Negroes would not accept the conclusions. "If on the contrary certain mixtures were mixed in the same species many Negroes would be pleased most whites would be unwilling to accept the demonstration in either sex, and the sexes would result. Democracies will always be swayed by ignorant prejudice rather than led by scientific principles or by ethical ideals." Then the following significant statement. "It is very desirable that the Negroes in the United States develop their own scientific investigators for the study of these problems. Data on race mixtures can be obtained best by field workers in whom the blood or both parent stocks is mingled and by disinterested co-operation of scientists of both parent races in analyzing the data."

While considerable mystery surrounds the affair and Mr. Vanables refuses to comment, several versions of the shooting sited through to police department and about town. The known facts, however, seem to be that Foote went to Vanables' place at 1418 "pena" Avenue where the attack took place. They both left there and went to the home of Foote where the shooting took place. He escaped after the attack, and to the time the was written had not been apprehended by the police department. At first it was said that the shooting was the outcome of a quarrel over business fairs. Both Vainables and Foote are engaged in the business, and the business was said to have made statements which the latter resented. The latter involved one of the former wives of Foote and that the shooting took place in the latter's home when an effort to adjudicate failed. In Many Difficulties "Although having been hated into court on many occasions, Foote so far has won the local reputation of a man of integrity that he has always avoided actual punishment.

Since the direction to stay away, however, the colored members have done so, and there has been no change of plans on the part of St. Gregory's to respond. The matter is said to have been taken up in a meeting at St. Peter Claver, but nothing has been done and there is nothing else to say about it, according to the acting president.
