IS BIGGEST ENTERPRISE
Tar Heel Business Men, Conservative, Honest, Lead Entire Country
By Carl Murphy
Durham, N. C.--The North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company expects to take in premiums amounting to two million and a quarter dollars this year.
This is the work sent down the line from President C. C. Spalding to 1,200 state superintendents, district managers and agents in the 12 states of the black belt, all of them south of the Mason Dixon Line.
Twenty-seven years ago when the company was started by John Merick, Dr. A. M. Moore and C. C. Spalding, the premium income for this first year was just $40. There has not enough to pay the salary of all others, let alone the three and the records show that the trimin-
sive served six years without salary, but the health care however were just a healthy infant in 1919 for the first time into the million dollar class. Since then its increase in business has averaged quite $200,000 a year until last year when it reached the two million dollar mark—the largest rate of increase in the United States perhaps in the world.
Not A One Man Business
Visitors to the North Carolina Manual building, a six story elevator office building in the heart of the business section, find that the giant is not a one-man room. The door is open, spalding's office opens when he is there or not. When he is there, anyone can see him from the humblest worker without unnecessary delay or red ear.
In his office, the directors, J. M. M. E. Newick, treasurer; Clyde Donnelly, medical director; W. J. Kennedy, D. L. McDougall, J. L. Wheeler, and A. J. Clement advise with him daily (continued on Page 6)

Bolt Imminent Among Leaders Of New York Republicans
New York.—Failure of white Republicans to share the plums with their colored Lehreth has resulted in the threat of the latter to bolt the organization.

Kearney, white, chairman of the Republican County Committee, and handed him a petition demanding that it be sent seriously into the next executive committee meeting.
The petition recounted the fact that the majority of Republican voters in the 21st Assembly District are colored and submitted a proposal for the election of one white and one colored district colored leader.

Hampton President Is Asked Some Pertinent Questions
---
New York.—Newport News Daily Press is pushing the Rev. J. A. Gregg, of Hampton, into a corner with some nonsensical questions on social equality according to the current issue of the Crisis. Trouble surfaces. Crisis declares the Denishawn players came to Hampton Institute and danced. The colored folk flocked to see them and the white people wanted to come also. They were welcomed. But there were no special seats for them apart at all of the college. The university had been Friar University they would have been furnished separate seats, separate windows to buy their tickets and separate air to breathe. Hampton has not fallen quite so far and so a group of haughty "Anglo-Saxons" stood during the performance and glared at the comfort and the empty benches beside them.
The blow fell next day. In a leading editorial the Daily Press thundered.
"Here in this old Virginia community, rich in history and tradition, here where the first permanent, white man's settlement was made, there is an institution where, in touch with those social equality between the white and Negro races... Entertainment are freely patronized by white men and wo-

men who sit side by side with the Negro men and women of the institution and other Negroes residing in Hampton and vicinity. There is no pretense of separating the races in the auditorium. To the contrary, the whites are informed that if they attend the entertainments they must come on the same term as the Negroes." James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton, was terribly alarmed at this attack. He leaped into the lists with a letter eight inches long, one-half of which was devoted to protesting that Hampton does not believe in "amalgamation." Naturally the Daily Press presses him into a corner and yells:
Do not white and colored folk at Hampton meet as social equals?
Do they not sometimes eat together?
Are not Hampton students taught the equality of races?
Was not Booker Washington entertained socially by Hampton trustees in the North and are not black Moton and White Gregg often thus entertained together?
What shall Principal Gregg answer?

VIRGINIA MOB METHODISTS IN OF 1,000 SEEKS 108TH ANNUAL FAKE RAPIST SESSION HERE
Briston, Va.-A mob of 1, 000 persons aided by the entire police force and accompanied by bloodhounds gave up a search of a colored man supposed to have committed rape upon an 11 year old white girl last week after they found out it was a joke.
In the meantime nearly ever foot of nearby counties was searched over, homes of colored persons entered and persons on the street held up in the effort to find traces of the alleged assailant.
The girl was 11 year-old Thelma McCary. She came to the Sixth Street filling station about 1:15 Monday afternoon and told several men that a colored man had attacked her on the road a few hundred yards away in broad day light. The child seemed to be in a nervous state and her clothing was torn. The police half hour the entire white citizenry turned out and formed a mob.
According to the child's story, she was on her way back home from school to get a geography when a colored man who stopped her suddenly stepped from behind a large rock by the roadside, confronted her and told her that someone on the knobs wanted to see her. This led the roadway of the Sixth street extension. The child badly frightened tried to back away but the Negro seized her and placed a large revolver against her chest and warned her not to scream. In his struggle to subduce her he choked her and ripped her clothes from her shoulders. When she finally pulled from his grasp, the child ran, fearing to look back. She crossed the footing and got until she met a man on the railway. He accompanied her to the Sixth Street filling station where a call was put in for the officers.
News Spread Quickly
News of the occurrence spread like wilt-fire over Bristol and in less than an hour after the attack more than 100 men were assisting police in effort to locate and arrest the Negro. Two Negroes were arrested as a result of telephone calls made to nearby places by local police. One of these was at Bluff City and another at Bluntville. The little girl was taken to both places by Roosevelt Road. Roosevelt Road but was unable to identify either of the two Negroes who were subsequently released.
Assallant Minutely Described
The child described her assailant as follows: light complexion, about a feet 6 inches tall, dressed in gray suit, gray flat-top hat, white shirt with blue stripes, tuxedo and a bow tie. He is said to have a mole on the right cheek. White hair and a fanned body of men heard the pathetic story from the lips of the little child it brought tears to the eyes of a number of the crowd. Owners of twenty-five automobiles offered themselves at once and the search began.
Confession Is Made
Then in the midst of all this turmoil came Thelma's confession. She said no one attacked her, that she spread the alarm because she was late for school and was afraid her father would whip her for it. I tore my dress to help make the men believe me. "I am afraid of anything about such an occurrence for I did not know it would cause all this trouble or I would never have told the tale."

Laurel, Del.—Seldom if ever, has religious fervor reached the heights attained here last Sunday afternoon when, in the presence of a deeply impressed multitude gathered upon the banks of Laurel River, a woman convert who had been bereft of her voice for six months cannot afford the water shouting glory and praise.
The immersion of nine converts came as the climax of several weeks' evangelistic services conducted by the Rev. E. P. Corbin, of Wilmington, and there were as many white people as those in the great massacre gathered to wrestle the impressive ceremony.
There were five men and four women robed for the ceremony in the rather chilly water and several of them had been immersed when the Rev. Corbin announced: "This sister has been unable to speak for six months, suffering from an illness which the doctors have been unable to cure."

NEW "JUDGE" BILL UP TO AL SMITH
The Billups Bill, which came up from Harlem in the hands of Pope Billups, Republican colored Assemblyman, which carves a new Seventh Municipal Court District out of the present one in such a way as to insure a colored justice to the Municipal Court this fall in Harlem still rests with the other hundred bills which Governor Smith has not yet acted upon.
Assemblyman Cuvillier, Democrat, of Harlem, raised his voice in protest against the bill which passes the Legislature by a Republican Party vote.
Billups asked: "Don't you think the colored voters are entitled to elect a colored justice?"
"Yes," said Assemblyman Cuvillier, "provided he can get himself elected in open competition at the polls. But not by drawing the color line for the purpose."
It was stated that bills which stay so long in the cabinet, almost forgotten, generally turn up in the omnibus vote when the Governor clears his cabinet. The cabinet is slated for a cleaning next week.

1910 Biggest Year
The figures above show that 1919
was the biggest year from the circulation
point of view in the history of the
magazine. It was $15,000 million.
In the past six years the circulation and the receipts have steadily dropped until at least two-thirds of the readers' number, and near zero receipts.
Financial Depression
In his report six years ago, Dr. W. E. H. DuBois, director of the *The Crisis* declared that the loss of readers was due to the poor financial depression and the fact that many people were out of work. This year his report states in the same way, "The Crisis is feeling somewhat the effects of the industrial depression in the field which it has so long dominated. In the end the crisis has become the proposal to meet the situation in the most intelligent way. The Crisis is still preeminently the leading Negro magazine, its near-fourth of its circulation. Of the policy and contents of *The Crisis* the readers are still the best judges. We have sought to vary the content of the same time keep it true to its chief mission. Beginning with the thirteenth volume in May 1925, *The Crisis* will change its form and its extent."
"Efforts have been made to secure specific financial aid for a survey of Negro education, and the survey will not pay; but if the investigation can be financed, The Crisis will publish a series of statistical articles each year, showing the condition of Negro school education in the South."

BATTLE FOR COLORED OFFICERS STILL ON
Proposes Mass Meeting May Sixth
REGIMENT DISORGANIZED
White Officers Having Difficulty In Recruiting To Pro-
per Strength
By GEO. E. TAYLOR
New York, N. Y.—There is much agitation here over the colored military regiment, the 36th, and there is, it is found, much more to follow.
The regiment itself stands in dire danger of being disbanded because of its failure to meet the muster requirement.
Taking the situation in and outside, it is purely a political battle, with whites and colored on one side, and united colored people determined, on the other.
The Illustrated Press was given this statement late last night after the session of Equity Congress, which is controlling the situation:
Equity Congress proposes to hold another mass meeting on May 6, 1925, to stimulate renewed interest in this campaign and to petition the Governor to give consideration to the appointment of a colored Colonel at the earl
"Due to dissatisfaction on the part of the men because of the unfair policy the men have been large numbers of deserts from the Fifthth. It is desired to recruit the earliest possible moment, and General Berry has announced that a school of instruction will be opened for commissioned officers. He states that one of the best military instructors in the State will be assigned to this school, and will be open for inspection by civilians. "The Congress as informed that Mayor Robert A. Arnold as president of $500,000 for the completion of the Armenia and the construction of an Administration Building and Dormitory will present headquarters at 56 west 130th street, will be closed out upon completion in process there."

Washington, D. C.—As a result of the refusal to permit colored persons to ride on the "Bowtie Special," an electric train run over the lines of the Washington, Baltimore and Annapolis Electric Railway Company direct from the terminal at 18th street and New York Avenue to George's racetrack at Bowie, Md. three suits for $10,000 damages each were filed in the District Supreme Court last Monday against the Washington, Baltimore and Annapolis Electric Railway Company.

of the discrimination against on account of
or race or color, they were subjected
to a strict dress code, shame, great mental anguish, and their reputations as reputable and respected
members of the community.
They say that about April 1, 1925, an insurer insisted on local papers and in accordance with it they made their reservations to board their tickets at the general ticket office at the terminal and presented their tickets at the time to board the train as passengers. When they attempted to board the train, the defendants unwittingly discriminated against them and publicly embarrassed them, and excluded them from the train, repudiated their contract and refused their obligation to them as common carriers. This was done by they are persons of Negro blood and descent.
Discrimination Prohibited
They further allege that the Washington, Baltimore and Annapolis Electric Railway Company as common carriers of passengers for hire was bound to receive them for carriage without discrimination.
They say that it is expressly prohibiting in its business from making or enforcing any regulation excluding Negroes or persons of Negro blood from any car, which it maintains, operates, manages or controls.
Two sections of the laws governing common carriers by railroad in the District of Columbia are cited in their declarations. One provides that there shall be no regulation excluding any person from any car on account of color.
The other section provides that the provision prohibiting any exclusion from any car on account of color already applicable to the Metropolitan Railway Company shall extend to every railroad in the District of Columbia.

In a thrilling pitcher's battle, the Baltimore, Black Sox bested the Lil Brothers' team, white, in Philadelphia at Maryland Park Sunday in a 4-3 contest. Mungin, the new addition from California opposed Durkin of the Quaker City team and held the team to pass one and sent eight to the showers. Durkin was found for seven safeties, struck out six and walked two. The night cap was called when rain sent the players scurrying for cover.
Sox Sock 'Em
The Sox started a bombardment in the fourth frame when four hits scored three runs. Jeffries singed, Eabe. Wilson doubled, followed by "Terry" Wilson, tornping goose and Wilson. Clark's single and a sacrifice by Day sent Johnson across the plate. The visitors got next to Mungin for four hits in the seventh which Swiger drew a pass. Swiger drew a pass. Pesquila fitted to Brit, Shaughter hit followed by a safety by Patterson and Swiger scored. Patterson stole second and a two-ball stoppage by Fleck found Shaughter and Patterson galloping across the rubber.
Beckwith to the Rescue
The Sox gained the edge in the eighth when Holloway beat out a second in Beckwith doubled scoring Holloway. The Quakers almost sewed up the game in the ninth when Patterson made third when Holloway dropped a run in man down. Mungin fanned Fleck and Durkin lined to Beckwith. A fast double play, Day to Beckwith to Wilson, featured in the first inning of Brothers' nine had one man on first. The Sox will leave Thursday for York where they will engage the Twins on day to Maryland Purk to meet the Camden, N. J., club, white, in a double attraction. The club is a member of the Penn-Jersey league and gave the Sox a stiff battle last year. Rojo reached New York Sunday and will be in Baltimore in time to play the game. "Bobo Leonard will also be in to relieve Britt in left field.
Sox Beat Pros
The Sox defeated Fucky Davis' 10th inning in a 7-1urdary afternoon by a 7-1 score. McLure went the entire distance for the Sox, and the visitors to five scattered hits.

ST. LOUIS VOLLEY BALL TEAM A WINNER
St. Louis, Mo.—An "audience of 150 persons was on hand last Saturday night to witness the volley ball match between the locals and Loulsville.
The first point was won on a rear court place shot by Hencock and soon the local team began hitting on all six and Harris showed them something new, how to spike with both hands and Handy Dixon set up the best boosts ever witnessed in a long time here.
The match was first three out of five games and St. Louis took three straight games by the scores of 15-7, 15-9, and 15-2.
Louisville is capable of playing a better game. They had been driving all night and part of the day and it had its effect when they got on the floor.

Athenians Close Basket Season With 70-27 Win Over College Quintet
"CHIPPY" TAYLOR LED
The "Ghost" With 13 Field Goals Won High Point Scoring Honors
The Athenians led the Morgan College quintet a merrie chase on the floor of the New Albert Friday night, and after 40 minutes of play the Greeks had the College boys on the short end of a 70-27 score.
This game closed the basketball season for the Eastern champions with only one loss on local territory and that to the 140th Regiment, the first of the season by one point. The speed artists jumped into an early lead and at the end of the first period the school boys were behind a 31-14 score.
13 Goals for Taylor
"Chippy" Taylor, the "ghost," simply ran wild shooting goals from all sorts of impossible angles for the total of 13 for 26 individual points.
Todd, a new recruit from Atlantic City, substituted in center during the last half. The Seahorse pivot lacks the experience and control of the tall Greek center, "Herb" the "Killer."
Butler in the Game
Wheatley and Butler make a smooth working guard combination and what "Ev" lacks in weight is made up in speed. Butler was in the game every second he was in the game.
The Morgan drummers were crippled due to the absence of Mack Payne, their star guard but Hawkins their star guard by the face of such overwhelming odds.
Sheffey, the "Flash" with four foul shots, scored by Young with three. Hawkins played a rather hawkard game at forward and soon gave way to Smith.
The Preliminary
The preliminary produced thrills galore when the Lightning Five starred in an extra period game of five minutes. Tom Hayes shot the winning goal with about two sec-
ends to play.

Attempts To Get Chick Suggs To Throw Boston Scrap Failed
New England Champion Refused To Be Led By Gamblers In The Mickey Travers Fight. Suggs Kayoed His Opponent And Had to Run to Escape the Wrath of the Speculators
Let Mannie Cover Your Head
Eurotr's Nove- This is the third installment of the story of the life and battling career of "Chick" Suggs running exclusively in Basketball at the most prominent contender for the world's bantamweight title, now held by Phil Rosenberg.
Early in 1917, mutual friends brought "Chick's" budding future to the attention of Al Cassidy, who was at that time New Bedford's most enduring friend. Satisfactory arrangements were made and Suggs then blossomed forth as one of the most promising youngsters. He did very well under Cassidy's able and careful handling. Too well, in fact, for before even his astute manager realized it. "Chick" had begun to tough boys and very soon AI was faced with the old dilemma of trying to find boxes anywhere near Suggs's conclusions in the rime with him.
Dodgers
It had become almost as difficult a proposition to shoot fighters into the ring to box Suggs as it is supposed to be with Pumas. The Pumas lose from a good old American cartwheel. After considerable negotiation with Pumas, they get "Chick" a bout in Boston with Mickey Travers. This bout was to be staged in the Arena and all "Chick" was to get for it was $25 and his car was to be staged. One of the most interesting sidelights of this period of the little man's career was his passage at arms with a ring of Boston gamblers who brought him a fight. It is worth repeating because it portrays as well as anything can, the sound of character way he used in climbing to the top.
Wise Money
A few moments before the time set for Suggs and Travers to enter the ring, some of the gambling syndicate approached Cussidy and suggested that they could make it well worth his while if Suggs would do a flop. He chased them out of the dressing quarters only to have them come back with offers ranging up to $200.
When they found they couldn't do business through Cassidy, the boys who wagered the so-called "wise money," got through his protecting lines and interviewed Suggs in his dressing room. Here they pleaded, threatened and cajoled but all "Chick" did was listen. They went out apparently satisfied that Suggs had been properly impressed and the scrap was "in the bag" for Travers.
When Suggs and the Connecticut had entered the ring, Travers was a heavy favorite to win by a knockout. The "wise boys" had done their work.
Travers Kayood
In the first round Suggs couldn't get going. Travers showered him with gloves and seemed to have him hopelessly outclassed. The odds on Suggs
E. YOUNG CROWNED MARBLE CHAMPION
E. YOUNG CROWNED MARBLE CHAMPION
At Duel Hill Park, Monday, E. Young was crowned the school-boy champion of the midshooters. The winners of the four preliminary contests were S. Stewart, G. Moore, E. Young and B. Christian. Final score: B. Christian eliminated S. Stewart, 13-0, 12-1. E. Young eliminated B. Christian, 7-6, 7-6. E. Young eliminated G. Owens, 9-4, 12-4. Other players taking part in the games were T. Daniel, M. Parker, S. Smith, T. Daniel, M. Parker, H. Mason, W. Bailey, C. Johnson, W. Miller, A. Smallwood, C. Hubbard, T. Brooks, E. Hall, J. Taylor, C. Harrod and A. Brown. Sometimes the following times the following boys have won: A. Mabel, C. Hackett, C. Burns, C. Bryant, C. Tubbard, C. Harrod, the following won games: J. Dixon, D. Thomas, H. Smith, E. Kimball and S. Jones. The boys eliminated were W. Jenkins, W. Weekley, M. Mitchell, W. Jenkins, W. Weekley, B. Turner, W. Fisher and P. Bordley.
employment.
He couldn't give a fight then if he had tried to pick one on the street. "Chick" Suggs was someone to be tallied of but not to be mingled with inside the squared circle. Hence he had to turn to something else. Young people were not sure someone else would pay the grocer's bills and keep the landlord good humored. He took a job at the Coddling Point naval camp where a big construction project was being carried out. "Chick" put his 118 pounds on the business arm and back he had never suspected he put a pick and shovel and discovered, minutely, a lot of muscles in his before. This went on for a time with "Chick" infrequently squeezing in a body armor. He wasn't getting anywhere and the prospects of his ever getting out of the ranks of the pork and beans were dimmer than a candle and he wasn't with a 600 candlepower incandescent.
lengthen and the boys came out for
the second round.
"Smuck!" The first thing "Chick" did in the second frame was to land his right flush on Mickey's chin, and he would then jump his feet from under him. He got up before the count of ten and collided with another crashing fist. Once more his shoulder blades fell into the reins. He was thrown off and immaturely went down and stayed down. The gamblers went wild. They surged around Singgs as he made his way down the dressing room and in general carried on in a most menacing manner. Cassidy and his little charge had to make the club without taking a heating.
Plays Squaro
"Chick" won that sort, got his $25, but was a long time getting unhappy. He wouldn't play the game the way those in control of the sport at that time wanted him to. If Suggs had been at all included, he would be a business man in the game. He would quite a pile of coin of the realm for a few years a little. But he preferred to now to the stage and play everything above board and let every scrap on its merits. That right would prevail in the end, was his creed. He was the most popular, most respected and highly admired performers in the game today. The question for squareness and honesty is unquestioned no matter where he shows. His quiet, unobtrusive manner and his exemplary mode of living have won him the sincerest admiration, so much successful battles hit the chute that leads to oblivion simply because they couldn't keep a level hold.
The age old appeal of the white lights, the pleasant purr of the idle flickers, of perquisite hangers on touches of awering chord on the top of St. James's.
Becomes A Benedict
Naturally industrious, unselfish and thoughtful towards the rest of his family, "Chick" tended strictly to his fisting and also made him his own cooks for the family he was strenched in. In February 1915—Washington's birthday, to be exact—"Chick" took upon himself the responsibilities of a man. He took for his bride Miss Elizabeth Spicer, a Staten Island girl of his own age. They were so young that it was necessary for them to add a few years to their marriage; they could obtain a marriage license. This bit of pardonable prevaition was accomplished without difficulty. Chick became an honest待递物 with his wife and wife all his own to work, save and strive for.
**Gets Pick Job**
At that time the boxing business, so worth "Chick" to him, would not a whit as a form of steady

HUBBARD DEFEATED BY QUARTER INCH
HUBBARD DEFEATED BY QUARTER INCH
Columbus, Ohio—For the first time in his career De Hart Hubbard, Olympic star athlete and University of Michigan broad jumper was defeated here Saturday by Dowding, white, of Georgetown in the running broad jump by one quarter of an inch, in the Ohio State relay carnival. Dowding's mark was 23 feet, 2 inches.
Ifubbard won the 100 yard dash in the local track record time of 9.8-10 seconds. Hubbard recently equaled the world's record in the 50-yard dash and is concentrating his efforts on dashes rather than jumping.
A sprained tendon suffered in Paris at the Olympics last year is thought to be the reason for the change as less strain is on the in-jurer member in running events.
Before the injury, Hubbard has been clearing consistently 25 feet and won the broad jump at Paris with a jump of 24 feet. 8 inches with a jump of 24 feet. 8 inches.

CARROLL TO RUN FOR THE AFRO
John Carroll, who won the Baltimore Health Week marathon, will represent the AFRO in the 2-mile run in the National Open Championships and Interscholastic Track and Field Meet to be held November on May 2.
THE AFRO was the main factor in "finding" Earl G. L. Mackey Johnson, Olympia star and champion cross country runner. Several other noted athletes found their legs under the supervision of the Baltimore paper. His American Baltimore athlete, will enter the 440-yard run, the 220-yard dash and the 16-pound shot. Tom Wheatley of the Athenian A. A. will compete in at least two events as well as Walter Eubanks.
THEY ARE OFF!
Beginning this week, 16 clubs, eight in the East and a like number in the West will begin a mad race for the Eastern champions in what has been predicted with his American basketball year in the history of the game space will be annexed to the great American game this year as each club will put forth extra effort to win the coveted world championship.
The history making Kansas City Monarchs, with their club practically intact, will make another run to the title in the West. Rune Post and his American Giants are strong contenders for first place and are out to give the champions battle.
The Hildale club and winners of the Eastern league pennant will try to duplicate again this year, but will find their stiffest opponents the Black Sox of Baltimore. Only one chance has been made in the line up of the Sox. Johnson of Kansas City will replace Johnston of last year's team.
MUNGIN LOOKS LIKE A "FIND"
If spring training means anything, manager Beckwitt's lads are ahead of everything else in the circuit. They have not lost a practice game all season and have swamped every team played.
Mungin, an unknown from the Pacific coast, showed plenty of class in his last two starts. He has speed, courage and the greatest asset of all
II. Jeffries, third baseman, will be the Sox lead-off man, followed by Holloway, Beckwith, third baseman, I am sure all terrific iters. Holloway will be moved over to centerfield," said "Beck" this week, and I expect him to have another good year. All wide ones going to be speared by the "Babe." Last but not least, Pete Hill will be called in to bat in a pinch.
With 9th in the big show, I am starting in better condition than ever and with every player pulling together I can't see why we won't finish on top.
INDOOR SPORT
The latest indoor sport among the heavyweight milt pushers of the country is laying claiming to "Dodging" Jack Dempsey's rather undistinct hand and with every player pulling together I can't see why we won't finish on top.
"Nobody" will convince us George is not the best heavyweight boxer now boxing, unless he beats George," said Godfrey's manager. That gives George a chance to claim the title.
Bibbons claimed it because he knocked out poor old Kid Norfolk. Bob Lawson has more right to claim the tarnished crown than Gibbons because the Georgia fighter certainly made a better showing against Norfolk than the Sox heavyweight. And it certainly funny the logical claim has never put in a bid for the diadem. Instead of claiming the title, Wills has been patiently watching and waiting, to these many years for the opportunity to earn Dempsey's headpiece.
WILLS HAS CLAIM TO TITLE
If Wills would come forth and claim the title, there wouldn't have been the big laugh to go with it. Wills challenged in good faith-FIRST and put his money UP. Dempsey would not accept the challenge and got in with the New York Yankees. Wills is the man to do
Now the rider of freight trains has decided to ride to Europe in palatial style accompanied by his new wife and it is said on good authority that he will be the first to do so. The ex-hobo has more money than he ever knew was in the world, but as a "fool and his money soon parted," and the only match the public is interested in is a, Wills-Dempsey go, the champion will sooner or later be begging for the chance to rehabilitate his bank account.
WITH THE BOWLERS
Thirty-nine teams are organized and will meet the Duck Pin tournament at the Bowling Center. Some very credible marks have been made by the bowlers in this comparatively new sport in Baltimore. Ladies are taking to the game and are "rolling their own" like veterans. The Tattlers are the most outstanding team of the fair sex. There are several individual rollers who would make a formidable ladies' team.
A frequent question often discussed by some of the best bowlers is: "AGAIN what number 10 pin invariably stands in?" This question is answered by Jimmy Smith, who is recognized as the world's greatest bowler, as follows:
ALL PINS DO NOT FALL BACKWARDS
One reason is that you are 63 feet away from the headpin and the pins move so fast in the crash that no human eye can follow them. All of them are hit by the ball, but spin around when driven from the spot by the fast moving ball. You are also to remember that in one delivery of the ball, that is spinning, you are not going to hit the ball, but will result in you vary as little as one inch with a straight bail in so placing it, the variation at the pins, sixty-three feet away will be even more and you are so far away you cannot discover the difference, so oftentimes the ball will strike the pin or the skier hit you did not—and there is the No. 10 pin sticking to prove it.
A PLUMP HIT LIKELY MEANS A HIT
If you hit the No. 1 and No. 3 pips plum, you may expect strikes, but if you hit the No. 1 or 3 thin or light either the 8-10 or No. 10 is apt to stand. When this happens, go to work to find the reason and if after trying out delivery with more hook or less hook, or reversing, or straight ball, you still get the same results, then you am safe in believing it is due to the hook poured into kickbacks through constant hammering of the pins and balls.
Some claim that the cause for No. 10 pin standing is that the length and width of the alley beds, size of the ball and its weight and also its speed, has never been scientifically worked out to produce mathematical rules."

STATE NORMAL HIRES PROS TO BEAT H. U.
Washington, D. C.—The second game Howard played on April 11 in Fayetteville, N. C., against the State Normal School proved to be a great disappointment to the Howard coach and team, when they found that one official of the school had hired three men to win the game for them who had not been in school, namely, Davis and Hodges who were pitchers, and Richardson a catcher. There also odds, Howard fought a hard battle, only to be handicapped more by poor officiating and quarrelling and unsportsmanishness in team and spectators of State Normal.
The game ended 11-0 after a long drawn out battle. Roy and Long were the best pitchers in the sportsmanship displayed by the Howard players working against odds was outstanding.
The following men made up the third squad on the trian: A. Roy, H. H. Slade, N. Robinsin, H. Wharton, Capt. Baylon, D. Simpson, J. Codwell, S. Strom, E. Bryant, J. Cormier, S. Norman, E. Drawing, C. Long and Coach Baugh.

HOME EDUCATION
_.To sit among a group of camer chil-
dren with shining cyes and expectant
faces is_an inspiration to any «story-
teller, One is filled with ambition; to
fail would be disastrous,
We hear much about the kind of story
we ave to tell, and with regard to this
wise ones differ. Let us study the child
first—then the story.
Some people think that myths and
fairy tales should not be told to. chil-
dren, Unit they cause them to become
visionary rather than practical. In 2
very few cases this may be true, but it
does not prave that this very’ strong
love of the child is generally harmful
or to be discouraged.
What a dry, dull world it would be
if the children were cut off from all
imagination! It peoples the world In
which they live with a distinguished
companys, and entertains them right
royally, "The ancient myths of the Old
World are ever frexh and new to them,
in fact they fnscinate both young and
old alike—all who love the mysterious
and the beautiful. Our Indian legends,
too, have charm, and there will be
found plenty to agres that many of the
more modern fairy tales are very much
worth while.
Said a noted educator: “Much of the
selfishness of the world Is due, not to
actual hard-heartedness, but to a lack
of imagination.”
If our nature stories do not bring the
children closer to nature, their object
is lost. “They do not so much need
“Nature as she Is taught,’ but Nature
as she spenks-while we ate silent.” Let
It he to each child as it was to Hia-
wWatha:
“He lenrned of every bird its language,
Learned their names and all their se-
crets."
Stories are extremely valuable as a
means of moral training. ‘There are no
wrong inclinations or weak points that
may not he reached by the story, if
skititully told,
Very important is it, that we have
genuine fun in our stories. While life
is serious, there are certain rights in-
herent In’ childhood, of which one -is
genuine mirth. While we quicken the
wits and impart sound wisdom, let us
teach the science and art of happiness.
“When I'm tired, what gives me rest—
Js to hear a little ebid
Gurgle out In laughter wild,
And just laught and Inugh its’ best.”
The faculty of putting oneself in the
place of others is of great service to the
cause of morality, and this faculty may
be cultivated by means of fairy storles.
As a rule, children are in sympathy
with all creatures: as they follow the
story they share the Joys and sorrows
of Ulysses, Snow White and Rose Red
or the Ugly Duckling. It is the excep-
tion when we meet a child who has not
hig share of imagination.
Occasionally we do meet a Peter Bell
to whom
“A primrose by a river brim
A yellow primrose was to him,
And “it was nothing more.”
While developing the imagination {Is
desirable, too much of fairyiand Is to
be nvolded, Tead the child to see beau-
|ty in commonplace things. A piece of
coal, a drop of water, a bean, each has
a life history which in the Nands of a
skillful teachcr hecomes as beautifu
and mysterious as any fairy trie.

Household Suggestions
When fruit has fermented, reheat it, add a little sugar, and make into pies or tarts. Before heating milk in a saucepan, rinse the pan with water, and it will not scorch so easily. To freshen shredded coconut, soak it in sweet milk a few minutes before using it. Bread should never be wrapped in a cloth, as the latter absorbs moisture and imparts an unpleasant taste. To roll a jelly-roll without cracking, it, turn it out of the baking-pan on a cloth wrung out of cold water. As you spread with jelly, the steam from the wet cloth will prevent cracking, and help you do a neat job.
How many ever tried adding a little baking powder to boiled ice for makes? It is also good to add to mash-d potatoes, as it makes them light and fluffy. Try pouring a cupful of erosene down the sink; it will kill dors and will not injure the pipes.
When you have overalls to wash, try soaking them for several hours in ear, cold water, then lay them on the dashboard, and scrub with a kitchen crubbing-brush. You will find the labor greatly reduced, and the color will remain fast through a good many washings. Rinse and hang in the hade, dripping; after a thorough baking, they will dry smooth.
Have you a pair of silk stockings in which a thread has been dropped, making a run? Try using a fine crochet-took to mend it. Pick up the dropped titch and continue crocheting all long the raveled part, taking care to pick up every thread as you work, and fasten the last stitch securely with needle and thread. If two or more stitches have been dropped, the titch is wider, but continue working each stitch in a straight line. If the work is carefully done, the mend will hardly be detected.
When making nightgowns for the aby, use snaps to fasten them. They are much handier, and save sewing on cuttons or hunting safety-pins. Blackberries and apples make a nice combination for pie, as dose rhubarb and ineapple. Take a can of shredded inapple, and a can of rhubarb, weeten and bring to a boil, then add tablespoonful of cornstarch dissolved in a little cold water. Bake with two crusts. I have three little ones, two boys of four and two years, and aaby girl of five months, and greatly appreciate any suggestions on child-raining.
Don't throw away old inner tubes, or very handsome pocketbooks, can an be made of them. A leather punch and a pair of scissors are the only tools required. Cut in two pieces and lace together with narrow strips, through holes punched evenly on the edge. Cut deep fringe which may be added or a part of original pieces. There are many holes of tubes, and the bags can be decorated with any design cut with leather punch. They are more beautiful than can be magined, and eing sold for $1.00 each.

Raising Raisin Bread
If you are not always successful making raisin bread, try heating the raisins in hot water for ten minutes before putting them in dough. The warmed raisins act as little heaters, prompting the raisin process.
Buy Cider Vinegar Now
If you like pure cider vinegar to put up your pet pickles, then buy 2 or 3 gallons of it now. Put it in gallon bottles, jugs or fruit jars and put away and forget about it until next August. The vinegar will be so strong it will be necessary to dilute it.

dropped along with the statement of his seven-year-old daughter.. However a charge of practicing medicine without a license has been preferred against him. Saturday the "voodoo" man was visited by a local theatrical man who desired the "doctor" to place his name on a contract for his appearance at a local theatre. The police authorities declared they would prevent his appearance on the stage in this city. But it was not known whether he did so or not.
Patrolman Howard Fisher, the colored officer who arrested Hyghcock, and exposed one of the greatest sensations in this city declared Friday that he had begun to feel the "spell" of the medicine man's curse, was reported worse Saturday. Fisher remained on duty Friday morning, although he declared he was seeing stars, hearing bells ringing and felt the spell of the witch doctor gripping him. Friday night, Fisher requested permission to report off duty, with the announcement that he was getting worse. It was granted. Samuel Brown, a former patient of the medicine man, levied on the effects of Hyghcock's house to satisfy a judgment of $1,134.88 obtained here in November, 1924. Bought Love Powder
He sued to recover money paid the doctor for treatments and love powders. In addition to paying $75 for a belt which the voodoo man said would keep away evil spirits. Brown bought a powder which the "doctor" stipulated would make his girl love him more. He also bought a powder to use on his hands to enable him to lick an enemy. When he tried it the enemy licked him. Brown also bought powders to cure disease. The attachment was secured by former Judge French as counsel or Brown, and stipulated that everything in his house be seized.
Practically Wrecked Home "Dr." Hyghecock, may bring some kind of a suit against somebody for wrecking his house, destroying his personal property and allowing an enthusiastic souvenir-hunting public to trample through his place and carry off everything but the voodoo himself.

If the medicine man's lawyer can decide who is responsible for the general trespassing, the destruction and the alleged disregard for Hyghcock's property rights, a suit for damages may be instituted, all that is needed is a good defendant, attorneys admitted.
Up To Grand Jury
The charge against Hyghcock will go to the grand jury. You is accused of practicing medicine without license and obtaining money under false pretenses.
Hyghcock's houses are in a state of confusion, bureau and trunks dumped out, beds upset and partitions constructed by the voodoo man have been ripped from the walls and thrown into the street.
Window frames, were removed from the buildings to make it easier for firemen to get rid of the refuse and even these have not been replaced.
Fill Up Tunnels
The back yard has been left a gasping chasm where firemen and police tore the roof from the voodoo caves and only partly filled the hole.
Late this afternoon, the police department was notified by the owner of the property to fill the large holes in the rear yard of Hyghcock's houses in which he rented. Workmen began to carry out the order.
Traffic Halted
Hyghcock caused quite a stir on Market street shortly before noon when he appeared with his seven-year-old daughter. Traffic was at a stand still and officers, were unable to keep it moving. While Hyghcock seemed greatly amused at the excitement he was causing on the busy thoroughfare.

CHAUTER IV.
The full moon traversed the region of the stars. The festival of the ga'nzas was about to begin. What a stroke of good fortune! A week before, the commandant had left Grimari on a tour of inspection in the neighborhood of Bamayassi. The billy-goat away, the nanny-gonts will play. Swarms of natives overran the grounds of the Government station—the only place that offered room enough for the full sweep of the various figures and the dance of the warriors.
A large empty space, as broad as it was long, reached from the commandant's house down to the Bembe. And only one man had been left in charge, only one native gendarme, one tourougou, Boula, for whom the natives didn't give a tinker's curse—Boula in sole charge of the administration building and annexes, the training-camp, and the guard-house. Who really did care about a koulougoulou—the nickname they had given Boula because, they said, he crawled like a milleped. The fanzas not having arrived yet, the yangba was not in full swing, but the indications were that it was going to, he wonderful.
A dozen l'nghas scattered about seemed to be waiting expectant. These were not ugly little tom-toms, dirty from use, weatherbeaten, worm-eaten. On the contrary, each of them visibly swelled with pride over its double convexity, the great round of an anormous tree-trunk patiently hollowed out. They had been given a pale coat, made of mixed white clay and manlac meal, with a broad band of red running lengthwise and breadthwise.
On the ground were spread baskets of millet, manioc cakes, whole clusters of bananas, dishfuls of caterpillars, eggs, fish, bitter tomatoes, wild asparagus. There were quantities of meats, either sun-dried or grilled over a fire—antelope meat, elephant meat, quarters of wart-hog and buffalo. There were the tubers that the whites despised—dazos, for example, every bit as good as their white potatoes. There were bangas or sweet potatoes, both the red-skinned and the yellow-skinned ports. There were baba's-sos or yams. There were great jars brimming over with the drink made of fermented millet, or malze. And there were a few bottles of pernod. The Pernod had been bought from the boundjoudoulis (white tradesmen) and was reserved for the chiefs, head-men and elders.
From the numerous fires arose volumes of smoke, black, heavy, and very pungent from the damp wood. The roads from Kama, Pangakoura, Pouyamba, and Kakidjil swarmed with the latecomers hastening toward these fires visible from afar—men, women, children, boys, boycesses, slaves, dogs. They had come, and still were coming, from their kagas, their chickets, their muddy patas-patas, or their plantations, armed with arrows and javelins, and carrying burning pieces of wood to light their way in the wooded strips through which they had to pass before they reached the small lakes.
The women, as soon as they arrived, set right to work with their koulourou to pound the maize and millet and manioc into meal and while pestles banged in wooden mortars they sang the song of the kouloungoulou.
The kouloungoulou, as is known, lives in dung. That's all he eats, too, they say. Think of it! Kouloungoulou, kouloungoulou.
Koulougoulou, ho! Ia-hey!
His wealth consists of but one thing.
He got it from the boundjou (white man).
And excellent husband that he is.
He passed it to his yasal.
She passed it to their daughter.
Koulougoulou, koulougoulou,
Koulougoulou, ho! Ia-hey!
How is it that we saw a koulougoulou.
Wearing a tourougou's chechita.
Passing through our lovely fields?
Yassia, yassia, care; beware
Of the filth koulougoulou.
He's no friend for you.
Koulougoulou, ho! Ia-hey!
Koulougoulou, koulougoulou.

was said that the Governor was soon going to Bandoro . . . that over in France in M'Poutou (Europe) the Frandjes were fighting the Zalemans.
Frutiges wereighting the Zalemans. While talking he stuffed the garabos within reach with hemp* and tobacco, lit them, took several puffs, which is the custom, and passed them round.
*Contains a strong narcotic.—Translator's note.
"You know, Batouala, I have just come back from Krebedge," said Pangakouha, the great Mandjain chief. "One learns a good deal travelling, doesn't one? For example, that the whites don't like each other. Here's proof, absolute proof—I had a complaint to make against a Portuguese, and I went to the commandant, the one we call Kotaya on account of his huge punch. I told him my story, trimming it up a little, of course.
"Pangakoura,' he said, 'you certainly are an idiot, the most idiotic idiot I've ever come across. What! you poor old dunderhead, don't you know a Poutriquess doesn't count? Listen. At the beginning of things—you follow me, do you?—at the beginning of things the N'Gakoura of the whites took the best he had on hand and created the whites. Then he gathered together the leavings and created the dirty niggers like you. Much later, he wanted to make the Portuguese and looked about for something to create them from. There was nothing left but the offal of the blacks. Out of that he knaned the first Portuguese.'" Volleys of laughter.
"Don't you think that the drop in the price of rubber is an unexpected piece of luck for us?" asked Batouala . "Even if the commandant had been away, we should not, but for this chance, have been able to come here to the Government grounds to warm our livers. There would have been one of those wretched boundjoudoullis on the spot to make us pay a pata, yes, five francs, for what the whites wouldn't have to pay more than a meya, ten sous."
"Your words are like clear water," said Yakidji. "We must give thanks to N'Gakoura. All the traders, on account of this happy crisis, have had to go back to Krebedge or Bangui. May they rot to death, their mouths open, their feet in filth."
"And that isn't all. Oh, that isn't all, Bataoula," said Yabada. "On account of the grand palayes between the white Zalemans and the white Frandjes, the yongorogombes are going to be shipped to M'Poutou. Yes, they're all going off to war at M'Poutou, all the long muskets,* all the black soldier-trash. Probably our present masters will join them. I myself think they will."
"Long muskets" is the nickname for black troops not native to Ubangi-Sharil, but brought by the French from the coast and other districts—Translator's note.
Yabao! quavered Batouala's old father, "as sure as my hairs are white, I think you're taking kagas for rivers and your wishes for the reality. Soon it will be three seasons of rains since the Frandjes and the Zalemans have been palatering. Have the Frandjes given any sign of wanting to leave? Not a bit. There's danger over there. Why should they go there to get killed?

Each man looks out for his own skin, Yabada."
Louder laughter.
"You're always right, elder. I admit it. But will you allow me to hope that the Zalemans will lick the Frandjes?"
"Ah, you boundoua Yabada! Zalemans—Frandjes: whites all the same. Why change one for the other? We are under the Frandjes, we know their good qualities and their bad qualities. They play with us like a nioua with a mouse. In the end the nioua always eats the mouse with' which it has played. Since sonor or later we're going to be killed and eaten, what use is there to wish for different niouas than those we have? It's like escaping buffalos to fall into the clutches of a lurking panther."
The discussion became general. "He's right. Why change? The new ones might be worse." "They don't like us. And we pay them back in their own coin." "We ought to murder them."
"We ought to murder them."
"We ought."
"We will some day later on."
"When the Banziris, Goubous, Yakomas, Sabangas, Dacnas, all, in short, who talk the Banda or the Mandjila or the Sango language, stop their old quarrels."
"That will be when the Bembe flows backward."
"And Macoude catches the moon in his nets."
Laughter again, so long and loud that one scarcely heard a great noise that sounded in the distance.
"Or you are all sons of a dog," cried Batoula under the influence of pipe and dring. "Or else you are all drunken than I am. Are you men, yes or no? Have the bazzinguers of Snoussi castrated you? I don't know. At any rate I for my part can't help cursing the whites. I remember the time when the M'bis lived peacefully along the Niou-Bangul, between Bessou-Kemo and Kemo-Oudda. As soon as the first whites appeared, the most of us picked up our fetishes, our pots, poultry, mats, dogs, women, goats, children, ducks, and withdrew to the country near Krehedge.
"I was very little then.
"There were struggles; there were huts to build and fields to sow. All useless. The whites settled at Kro-bedge.
"Another move. We liked Griko. We halted at Griko. The same difficulties getting established there; but we thought we'd be able to draw a peaceful breath. Wrong! The whites—the whites again!—descended on Griko.
"We started off once more. To Grimari. There was a fine location for us in Grimari between the Bembe and the Pombo. We settled there. Alas! before we had completed our building and planting the whites were upon us again. By that time we were worn out and discouraged. Besides, we had lost so many men taking land away from others by force that we were afraid our tribe might be destroyed. So we stayed where we were, and looked pleasant. . . ."
The great noise in the distance drew nearer.
"No use. Our submissiveness did-

n't bring us the good will of the whites. Not content with trying to suppress our customs, they wanted to impose theirs on us. We had no right to play patara for money. We had no right to get drunk. Our singing and dancing interfered with their sleep. But—pay them a tithe, and they'd deign to put up with our singing and dancing. Pay, pay, pay, always pay! The Government treasuries are insatiable.
"Yet after all, we'd give into them, the mean bullies, if only they applied the same logic to themselves that they do to us. They don't. Listen. Two moons ago that beast Quorro, drunk as a white man, beat up one of his yassis. She was bruised and swollen from head to foot. Blame him if you feel like it. But who of you—ch?—has never beaten his yassi?
"The jade actually went to the commandant to complain. It so happened that he had several white guests stopping with him. As a rule, he is that rare thing among the whites—sober. On this occasion he was full to toppling over. He ordered a tourougou to palce Ouorro under arrest. The tourougou carried out his orders rather gently, and the commandant went into a fury and threw an empty bottle at his head. The tourougou fell down, the blood streamed from his forehead. He made a face from the pain, and all the whites laughed as though it were a huge joke. That's the way they treat us.
"Tahada, see for yourself. Dare to risk two francs at patara under the eyes of the commandant. What'll you get for the awful crime? A lashing with a knotted whip, and with that you'll come off easy. Only the whites may play games of chance."
Batouala's eyes were bloodshot, he shouted and stammered.
"The whites are good for nothing. They call us liars, and treat us accordingly. Our lilies don't deceive anyone. If we embellish the truth sometimes, it's because the truth isn't good enough; manicoc without salt is sasteless. But the whites! They lie for nothing. They lie with method. They lie by rote, as naturally as they breathe. That's what gives them the advantage over us. "They say the Negroes under one chief hate the Negroes under another chief. La, la! How about the boundjoudoulis, the long muskets, the Mon Peres (priests), and the commandants? Do they agree? And if they don't why should we? A man's a man, no matter what his color, here as well as in M'Pautou."
The huge sound in the distance had become more distinct, like the droning of thousands of blue or green youmas (flies) about a carcass.
Batouala rose to his feet and shouted and gesticulated.
"I will never allow anyone to deny the meanness of the whites. What I blame them most for is their lying and their cheating. The things they didn't promise us! 'Later on,' they said, 'you'll see, it's only for your own good that we force you to work. We'll take only a very, very small part of the money we make you earn. We'll use what we take to build villages for you, roads, bridges, machines that run on iron rails by means of fire.'
"Where are they—the roads, the bridges, the wonderful machines? Where I ask. Nowhere! Not a sign of them. Nothing, nothing! And so far from taking only a tiny part of what we earn, they rob us of our last sou. Aren't we to be pitied? I ask you, aren't we to be pitied? "Thirty moons ago we got three francs a kilo for our rubber. Over night the price went down. Without offering the shadow of an explanation, they paid us only fifteen sous for the same quantity of banga—one meya and five bimbas. And the Governor chose that very moment to raise our tax from five to seven and ten francs.
"Now there isn't anybody who doesn't know that from the first day of the rainy season we work just to swell the taxes—if not also to fill the pockets of our commandants."
"We're nothing but flesh to feed the taxes. We're nothing but beasts of burden. Beasts? Not even that. Dogs? They feed their dogs, and tend their horses. We? We're less than their animals, we're the lowest of the low. They're killing us by slow degrees. . . ."
A drunken crowd pressed up behind the group of which Batouala was the centre.
They reviled the whites. Batouala was right, a thousand times right. Of old, before the coming of the whites, they had lived happily.

They had worked a little, for themselves, they had eaten and drunk and slept. From time to time they had had bloody palavers and hed plucked the livers from the dead to eat their courage, and incorporate it in themselves. Such had been the happy days of old, before the coming of the whites.
Now they were mere shaves. There was nothing to be hoped for from a heartless race. For the boundjous (whites) were heartless. They deserted their children by Negro women, and these children, knowing they had sprung from the whites, scorned to associate with the blacks. They were full of hate and envy, these boundjouvoukos, these half-whites-half-blacks. They were lazy, mischievous, rotten with vices.
As for the white women, no use talking about them. For a long time they were considered precious objects, and were feared and respected like fetishes. Now they had come down a few pegs. Now it was known that they were just as easy as the black women, and more venal, and had vices the black women were innocent of. . . . But what was the use of talking about it?
And the white women wished to be respected!
Batouaka's father held out his hand. The uproar subsided as if by magic. Not so the sound of music and singing that filled the air.
"My children, everything you say is so. Only, you should see there's nothing to be done. Resign yourselves. When the bamara (lion) roars, the antelope fears to bell. You are not the stronger. Keep quiet.
"Besides, to be quite frank, we are not here to curse the boundious.
"I am old. While you were discussing, my tongue got dry. Let us shout less and drink more. Next to the bed and the easy-chair, Pernod is the most important invention of the boundjous. My eyesight is not so good, but I thought I noticed several bottles of absinthe. Do you mean to brood on them Batouala?" The tension relaxed. They went into fits of laughter. Batouala himself had tears of laughter in his eyes as he hastened to satisfy the waggish old man's desire.

Miss M. Edith Cooper Favors With
Proper Grasping
Instruction in matters pertaining to
sex can be given to high school students
profitsfully, providing the proper
attention is given to the grouping of
sex students, and ensuring to age and
previous home training. The person
giving this instruction should be one
who can approach the subject di-
loratically and bring about a sense of
concern and seriousness and need
for such teaching.
PAROLE "BISHOP" ON NON-SUPPORT CHARGE
The Rt. Rev. William Wilson
of The M. C. E. Church
Haled Into Court
The Rev. Wilson, who besides his duties as bishop, pastor the Mt. Zion M. C. E. Church at Hanover and Cross streets, was arrested at a church charges that he failed to give her proper support. Because of his inability to obtain bail he remained for some time in the city jail.
10 YEARS BISHOP
The Rev. Wilson, one of the five Bishops of the Methodist Christian Episcopal Church, was paroled in Part 2 of the Criminal Court. Months later he supported his wife, Mrs. Carrie Wilson.
The Rev. Wilson lives with his wife on Second avenue, Fairfield. He was arrested on a charge of non-violence for a month in default of bail.
The Rev. Wilson was appointed Bishop of the Baltimore area when the new seat was formed ten years later. He is now in age in the new domination which was a combination of several faiths. The church conference consisting of about twenty churches was duly cooperated in the courts of Baltimore.
At the time the Rev. Wilson was appointed Bishop, four other Bishops were appointed as well as District Superintendents and pastors, the two who were appointed Bishop and Baltimore were included in the jurisdiction of the conference.
HOME WAS HEAVEN
When asked if she wanted her husband to return, Mrs. Wilson declared that the month her husband spent in jail seemed, like heaven to her and her children. The Wilson's have been married for 21 years according to the wife's statement and that Mr. Wilson was placed under the observation of the parole board.

Should sex hygiene be taught in the public schools?
Refusal of Principal Mason A. Hawkins to permit Dr. S. Bernard Hughes to deliver a university lecture before the male students during Health Week led an Afro reporter to seek views of several civil lilies. A. Hawkins Comments Our motion is that the question of social hygiene should be taken up in small groups and at frequent intervals. It is a matter of developing social hygiene guidance. In a large and unselected group of a thousand or more girls ranging in ages from 10% to 18 or 18 years, there is a great variation in sex development and sex consensuality.
Many of these girls are prepubescent, some pubescent and others postpubescent. Speakers on this subject will discuss the heart of the matter. They refer to all types of social diseases and other matters that are entirely alien to the notions of many of their audience. Such discussions to many of the children cannot be without proper facilities for follow up work their curiosity is aroused and they themselves might readily be exposed to the knowledge they require to the adolescent and pre-adolescent should be taken up in the home or by selected teachers in science and home economics classes and in girls and boys' classes. They must be taught in this way for many years in the Doughschool High School. The facilities of our new building will make possible more effective work along this line.
A. Physician Approves
Yes, high school students should be lectured on the problem of sex, dependent upon the fact that such a vital subject may be presented and explained to the youth. HABERSTEIN HADECOPIS, Chicagoodistrict, 818 Hill Ave. School Association Head Thinks
Lectures Préper
Yes, I think we should have lectures in high school, as so few parents are prepared to instruct their children properly, to picture the problem. They should be instructed by some prepared person who knows how to approach the subject from the angle of understanding, and that instruction should come from some one who is fully prepared, and how it will be given to some given place where lectures are given by people who are prepared. There are four periods in life that are very few people know, which is the period of preparedness, the second period, 20 years, which is the childbearing period, and is most important in the movement of the period of old age. The child of youth should be instructed along these lines by some one who is interested in the matter. WESTER
1s. Parent's Duty
I think that the parents are the ones to lecture on the problems pertaining to an early age. It is the mother's task to begin with, because the father or no one else can get as much attention as well as the girl. The boy would take lectures into consideration more seriously if spoken to by the mother in a quiet setting. The girl is mostly the mother's fault if one girl or boy goes blind into some of the social disease that is so common among the people of the country. I don't think it should be left to the teacher or a lecturer as the subject is a very delicate one.

Makes Summary
Silence was so painful at the School Board meeting Friday that any number of falling pins could be heard.
Mrs. Edward J. Wheatley, president of the Federated-Parent-Teachers' Club, with a delegation, asked why Dr. Walter F. Cobb, director of Physical Education, had not recommended the stadium for the colored children as well as the white for the Health Pageant to be held the latter part of May.
The Board seemed in a quandary, no one spoke for several minutes. Theo. E. Straus answered: "have done the best we could."
"I don't know any more now than I did at first," declared Mrs. Wheatley.
Mrs. John Weylen Brown and Dr. Frank Goodnow, members of the Board also stated they did not understand the situation and Mr. Straus replied that he was "working hard."
Other members of the delegation were the Rev. John Colbert, Mrs. James Coulter, Mrs. George Boston, John W. Georgian, and W. W. Secretary of the Urban League.
Want School No. 52
the secretary of the Board read a letter from James Grandison, president of School 115. The Board referred the statement of School 115 to the city had cut 32nd Street through from Barclay to Homestead thereby placing one of the schools on the curb, which will necessitate the removal of this building. The children of this school cannot attend School 115. Federal and Carnegie beckuse the distance is too great. Mr. Grandison asked that the white school building. School 52 was moved at present there are only 180 pupils, be turned over to colored children. This school is in the colored neighborhood. The Board referred to the Board of Superintendents.
Equalization of Salaries
"Letter signed by Dr. H. S. McC. William L. Fitzgerald, ATC. William L. Fitzgerald, ATC. kins, asked the Board to assign the salaries of the male and female teachers in the Douglass High School, the letter read in port: "During the past tittle years six teachers have left the colored high school, and a year alone six experienced, capable teachers left for better salaries and six new ones who had never before stood in front of a class were appointed to take their places. Six million and a half dollars the proposition is to get the cheapest faculty possible—not the best.
"This is our plea for mercy."
Musical Festival
Dr. West read Mr. Denues, supervisor of music, recommendations for musical festivals for this school, and for this new children. Mrs. John Wesley Brown asked the Board not to have it held at the Regent theatre, where it has been held formerly, and reopened for the new children, for the white children are held. She declared the Regent theatre not large enough and that she attended last year and could not get in touch with the procure the Lyric if it has money to do so and if nit, will ask the Board of Estimates for funds.

GOOD MORNING JUDGE
Mistaken Relationship
An elderly woman stood before the bar of justice in the Western Police Station Friday morning. A young man stood on the opposite side of the rail. The judge said in accusation place and looked knowingly at the pair.
"What's the charge?" asked his honor.
The woman brushed away his unlucky and informed the magistrate that the charge was non-support. "I hate to do it Georgia," she said, "but I cannot live off nothing and you think I am able to work." The magistrate reported at the court that "why don't you work?" he blurted, "you are well and strong!" How can you be so heartless as to neglect the poor old woman? "Is your honor," interrupted the young man.
"Not a word," said the judge, casting a glance of sympathy at the woman who tucked a strand of gray hair under her arm. Hard-working do you live? "22 Bowers Court. Judge, I don't want to be hard on George, I think he will do right if you tell him, "I hate to do it Georgia," but I have no pity for a man who won't support his dear old mother." "She's not my mother," interrupted George, "that's my wife."
The judge was so surprised he did not case without further comment.
When Wife Came Back
The party would have been a blazing success if Mrs. Eileen Nance, 633 Josephine street, had come home at the most unexpected moment. Mrs. Nance was not scheduled to arrive until the wee hours of the night, so Edwin Nance, the party and invited some of the boys who he ran access in a nearby saloon and a lady friend. Everything was going smoothly, bootleg whiskey flowed freely and a lovely time was had by all. But, there had to be a hit where there were three men, and everybody began. Everybody wanted this one young woman so as in the days of old the began to do what their instincts told them—fight. When the fight in was its height, Mrs. Nance came home, with her she brought an arm of the law and everybody took a ride to the Western.
"Judge," said the wife, "I want husband and all these men had my husband down beating him."
The magistrate allowed the others to explain, then said "No. It seems that he has best him enough and is going to one him $5. The rest are dismissed."
Smith Acts As Judge
When the Judge in the Northwestern told Bernard Smith, 1902 Dudl Hill avenue, to sentence Julius Williams, 1109 Stockton street, as he had told him that sentence was going to be. Williams had met Smith on the street and after a few words struck him in the face knocking him down. Smith who was not hurt, thought he had been treated badly and went to the station house seeking justice. Williams faced Smith with tears in his eyes, he pleaded, coaxed and persuaded him to help him all to so avail. "No sir, Judge," said Smith, "he met and accused me of not supporting my wife and that wasn't any of his business. Then he told me the wife's the street, and intend to send him just as far as I can."

20 YEARS AGO
WE opened, in a modest way, a real estate office in Baltimore. We had certain ideas about how such a business should be conducted--and certain ideals about fair dealing, dependable service and courteous treatment. Today, we are still running our business along the same lines. But with this difference: We have grown in size to the point where we can handle any proposition. Our experience enables us to speak with authority on all matters of Real Estate.
Years ago—the Astors and the Vanderbilts, then only moderately well-to-do, bought their homes and had vision—and faith. Today everyone knows of their enormous wealth. West fortune, lesser ones, and even the few who have been secured in every city by those who had the foresight to buy Real Estate—right—and held them. Now you can. Right here in our own city are many splendid opportunities. Have you faith in Baltimore? We have!
Property Insurance
Is your house and furniture insured? If not, it would be well worth it. If you have insurance, you might suffer serious loss from fire.

The slight effort necessary in arriving on time is soon forgotten and few things will assist as greatly in putting us in tune with our work and in causing the day to pass smoothly and pleasantly.
Punctuality creates confidence, and causes others to feel that the one on time is trustworthy.

The flowers and blooms along the highways are nature's contribution to the delights of mankind. The individual who takes or destroys these is displaying a sordid selfishness of which he should be ashamed. Our motorists are all too free in appropriating these things that do not belong to them. They have no respect for either the rights of the land-owner or their fellow travelers. These things are no more public property—excepting to enjoy—than the flowers in your private garden in the city.

The reason assigned is that the money can be better invested in a library or gymnasium.
Actually Booker T. Washington needs no shaft of marble or tablet of bronze as a monument to his greatness. Tuskegee Institute is his specific memorial and every trade school in America is a perpetual reminder of the "father of industrial education."

A group of pupils of the Douglass High School asked to prepare a debate on the question, "Resolved, That the Employment of Colored Police Would Prove Beneficial to the City," hesitated to accept the subject on the ground that sufficient arguments cannot be found on the negative side.
Yet, presupposing Governor Ritchie and Police Commissioner Gaither to be sincere and conscientious public officials there must be a negative side of this question, else police examinations would not be closed to colored persons in the city. In the minds of these officials there must be reasons of sufficient number and importance to justify them in the stand they take.
There is no better time than now to ferret out these arguments and debate them for what they are worth. Usual scholastic debates feature silly subjects so foreign to the practical life of colored citizens that a change would be welcomed.
We suggest that the debate be staged by all means and the governor and police officials be invited as guests or judges.
Africa For The Africans

Followers of Marcus Garvey are asking the question, how shall Africa be redeemed with their leader in prison for five years.
The world has a fashion of getting along without old leaders, by the simple method of raising up new ones.
Two decades ago before Garvey uttered the war cry of "Africa for the Africans," Bishop H. M. Turner, of the A. M. E. Church, exhorted the South Africans to independence. So potent was his influence that the British government today muzzles every black American missionary before he is allowed to land in British Africa. He must swear not to discuss politics or or he is deported on the first ship.
In the past few months Morrocan troops gained notable victories in their fight against Spain for independence. Whole Spanish units were wiped out. Italy is having its hands full in holding rebellious Senussia tribesmen of North Africa in check. Some 22,000 South Africans Kaffir workmen went on a strike against the English government's attempt to stop the brewing of native beer.
Evidently in the long run, native Africans will work out their own salvation without outside help. America needs all the resources and ingenuity of black citizens to solve the problems at home.
Spring Cleaning
time has come, to paraphrase the Walrus eggs, especially of house-cleaning and old joke with men, and one which they can to get them a good laugh, that woman when they are cleaning house. It is that when Father pulls this joke. Mother and him just how much "fun" house-clean whether it is fun or whether it is not, there who didn't feel all happy and contented were all clean and the windows were bright newspapers had been thrown away. The good clean air of spring which makes it in rugs and curtains, and the mist that she windows. or, however, can get back at Father events to. For while she is tossing furniture
The time has come, to paraphrase the Walrus, to talk of many things, especially of house-cleaning and gardening. It's an age old joke with men, and one which they always depend upon to get them a good laugh, that women are never happier than when they are cleaning house. It is just as traditional that when Father pulls this joke, Mother must flare up and tell him just how much "fun" house-cleaning really isn't.
But whether it is fun or whether it is not, there never was a woman who didn't feel all happy and contented inside when the rugs were all clean and the windows were bright and all the old newspapers had been thrown away. There is something in the good clean air of spring which makes one hate the winter dust in rugs and curtains, and the mist which will gather on the windows.
Mother, however, can get back at Father everytime, if she only wants to. For while she is tossing furniture and dust around inside the house, it is altogether likely that Father will be tossing the dirt about in the garden or the back yard and getting ready for his spring spree of planting.
And it is these two annual sprees which make our homes the delightful things they are. To really love a home one must work with it, although it would be a highly idealizedaint who would have true thoughts of love for anything while she was in the midst of house-cleaning. The love for the home comes later when the ache is gone from her back and the stiffness from her knees. And the garden is truly a part of the home, as much as the father and mother are two parts of the family.
So to make our habitations real homes, Mother must have her annual spring upheaval and Father must dig around in his garden—and the result is HOME.

A Changing Continent
Every American youth should read the illuminating dispatches from the "dark continent of Africa," following the "dark highland of Wales." You get a picture, not of heather man eaters, but such power pomp and glory, as will make the most private and glamorous country do some, new thinking. Picture to yourself a spectacle where 20,000 native calvarymen in rich uniforms and like the salute Picture genuine African boy scouts richly dressed creole maiden, white settlers and native dignitaries and moonlight dances. This is England's way of reassuring the natives that a new day is dawning. It is the natives, way of showing England, black men there have caught the spirit of freedom. Down in Free town Monday there was another day where its revising the attitude toward Africans.
Now come back home. Down in our Southland in this land of the free and home and home the genuine boy scouts. Even here in Baltimore, it took a three year determined effort to open the way for official scouts. That way, the scouts mean a place in England. It will mean more to native Africans, but it ought to mean most to American Negroes in the way of waking them up to the possibilities in the real world. The dangers that impel the head of the most powerful government on the face of worth something to a few enterprising the earth certainly it would be, young colored men.
The Sleeping Klan
Every now and then something happens to tell us that the Ku Klux Klan is not dead, but sleeping. The Catholics and the Jews are sufficiently powerful to keep its activities "within the law," according to Saturday, 500 men, women and juveniles, including 50 from Baltimore, donned the hoods and robes and publicly marched to a Baptist church in Baltimore, where a celebration took place. At that ceremony the hoodgoblin, or some high-ranking organization again set forth beneath the fiery cross. their objective to banish all catholicism and kick all alliances to the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. That objective helps us. For by the time that that accomplished them of them left to do much to our group. We wonder if the Grand Goblin has read recent dispatches from the Catholic and a powerful government head who tried to buck the Catholic organization.

Last week in one of the largest music concerts a great symphony orchestra received prolonged applause following the rendition of a special arrangement of a number based on the Handy type of music. This is this irresistible music fighting its way to supremacy.
High brows may rage; critics may frown with assumed disgust, and many men soul cannot help leaping to the appeal of the "blues." Even its degenerate younger sister, Jace, may think that crashes through to the heart
Were Sorrow Songs
But those who knew Handy and the depth of feeling which prompted him to feel the pain that knew much of the modern development of the new music called "jazz" is as far from the original sound as their modern development into "Gettin Gertle's Garter" and Simon "Called Peter." Handy heard the sorrowing mother, ground down by prejudice against the Southland, singing her soul out over the wash tub; he heard the chain gang, victims raising their fists, lightened their awful lot; he listened to loneliness walled out of the banjo behind the life-giving cotton plantations where men and women still worked under the tightening grip of slave drivers, and he set it down in the
It has been one of the most interesting facts of human behaviour that oppression in the 60s prompted as economic oppression in the Northern labor centres did with its submerged and oppressed masses, of careless and negligible tendencies sung their sorrows away in the spiritual cadences, and the real "blues" are no less a genuine expression of the ability of their everyday troubles away. When the maiden, heart sick and crushed because she had lost her heart gathered their everyday heart gathered her children after a conscienceless husband had found another mate realized their condition, they did not grasp a revolver and snuff their lives out; THIBY SANG. When the white land owner deliberately manipulated the figures that deprived the farmer out of his year's earnings, they faced another burrow year, they did not throw bombs through the windows of their lordly oppressors; but they gave in to their
Thus we have the "blues," the irresistible appealing blues which are made of that strange combination of laughter, tears and forgetfulness.

According to his plan from $100 to $300 is to begiven youths who lead such lives or to wear them, will not only be an incentive, to right living but will serve to help the young man at a time when money counts.
There are many serious minds who think that philanthropy may be more hurtful than good. There is, of course, a certain reward to revery young man in this world who travel to see and act upon the thrift. But, without artificial, stimulants often weakens rather than strengthens.
What the average young man needs is power, rugged determination and the idea that he can force success out of the world and in the hands of others. When you push him too much, he fails to develop the very faculties that he needs to sustain him when these stimuli are present.
PROFESSOR FUDGE
AMOS HOKUM SAYS
Taxi Cabs Combine
It is alleged the hacking drivers of the city are about to organize. How can they be the kind of organization you expect. It is not the purpose to raise the rate from fifty cents to head to seventy-five cents, but to put on an additional cover charge. The fact is the wolf has made them take a certain amount of cover. Their wolf is away because they would not bring us a meter and the old cab. Therefore, they have come to the conclusion that thing to do is to gang the situation.
Regular Cabs With Meters Coming
As I understand it, they are to turn in all those beautiful gas wagons and have sent back to them some regular tax cabs with the meters in them and even better than that, there will be a regular telephone number and you will be able to get a cab on short notice without having to take the cluiffeur. There will be one grand organized service run on a big time plan and the boots will look good enough to draw up in front of anybody's house. We are written in the constitution of the organization and any one knows you must live up to your constitution. We all know how the United States was established, we understand the fourth and fifteenth amendment. We all wish the new company, health, wealth and prosperity, but we also believe that if it does not want to be a "browd" of those other cabs, we better not tamper with them meters.
Half Century
The Half Century Club held its regular Easter Carnival at the New Albert Auditorium Wednesday a week ago. One of the ins and outs of the affair. Of course as time goes on some little bit of chatter will leak my way, but I don't mind. IRelay much information to the public. The best I can get out of it is that it was a beautiful thing. It is claimed the decorating was done good out in hold relief as a fly speck on a clean white collar. True there was some bungling of the music but this did not count, in fact this lightened up before came up.
Decorations And
Fancy Cuts
Other than the decorations and the fancy cuts and shakes furnished by the dressmakers and worn by the different delegates, the greatest feature of the event was the attitude taken by the Committee of Ways and Means in getting up the invitation list. In the committee's work, "one must understand or know something of past performances," as a race horse tout would say. In the past the wives of the members of the committee or so much rolling pin that the slippery old fellows were afraid to invite any young girls at all. In the past the dance more like work than pleasure. In fact when those old fellows kept purposefully crushing the madam's toe, it became clear to all of them that now arrangement was more important to be made some other ladies could come to the thing and rest their toes up. Therefore peace was finally declared after the event. Young or some alleged young women were permitted to be invited by the

Alphas Dance
I am also keeping my weather eye on the Alpha Phi Alpha dance which is scheduled for Wednesday at the New Albert. I hear these college boys are going to try to show the vagabonds how to dance. It will be interesting to know much much of a dance can be had for $50 punch can be bought for $50 and how much of a dance can be had for $500, counting the hired suits, new dresses and all. If any of the clinical memoirs and I hope to be able to note the fact.
His Royal Highness
The Prince of Wales is now in Africa. It appears he is visiting the different parts of the British Empire as well. Not that the Africans can do anything to the Empire is it necessary for him to make the trip, but as we all know it is even well to have the Empire when the natives see the charming prince with his cowboy suit and his light blue overcoat on, naturally they will warm up to him knowing that he will shake hands and distance to shake hands with them. If the Prince makes them satisfied enough to stop squawking and do more work so that a lot of the bloody Robs- Royces he will at least be of some service to somebody. The Prince absolutely intends to make a good impression. This we will must agree if we look in the luggage aboard his ship.
Banjo And Red Tent
Among the many things aboard the ship the following-articles were tabulated: One banjo which the Prince has learned to play, one big blood red tent which he will use when ashore and a special built blood red auto trimmed with plenty of nickle plate and which evidently looks like a bootlegger's car. Just as the Dutch and the English bought half of America with loud blankets and trinkets, so that Prince hopes to get the good will of his African subjects by the red tent, the red motor car and the banjo.
If you can imagine Wales sitting outside of his red tent with the red auto in the back ground and the banjo in his "mit," doing a "Ukele Ike" while a crowd of natives watch him, you have some idea of what he is going to pull in the old country. The fact is, the Prince is going in for Vaudeville. This is all so well and so good. But I can't see why the papers let him get away with this stuff without giving him a name. When Kaiser Bill's son was directing the operations of the German troops during the war and was making it ever so unpleasant for the allies, all American papers that did not have German-American editors referred to the young man as the "Clown Prince" for no other reason than that he was giving all the troops in front of him a living fit.
If the German Crown Prince had to be called the "Clown" Prince, I see no reason why the English Crown Prince can't be called "Bert" Williams, specially so inasmuch as he is alleged to have Negro blood by him. If he had to come to him in way of descent from the famous Russian Poet Pushkin, Hey, hey.

Kelly Miller Says
Something new under the sun is the $200,000 bequest of the late Charles W. Troughton, white to Hampton and Tuskegee.
The money is given for scholarships to boys and girls who expect to go back to the farms.
In city life cards are stacked against the Negro. He is afforded every facility for leading a gay life, but is excluded from all except a few lines of business.
A New Bequest To Hampton and Tuskegee
All roads lead to Rome. People are prone to travel a beaten path. To him that is a bad thing. The Turkestane have captured the imagination of the American people. The benevolently disposed look to them as a kind of blessing. It is not so much because of any theory of education of social policy that these institutions have gotten. It is rather due to the idea that two great Americans built their lives into the warp and woof of these great institutions and have brought the world to order.
Armstrong and Washington, one white and one black, made a deeper impression upon us and a greater of their day and generation than any other contemporary teachers. The seed was planted in a new and fertile soil. The needs of the African-American community needed powerfully to the imagination of the American people. Other forms of education were unfamiliar to the African-American persuasive advocacy. Indeed the higher education of the Negro has equally as attractive goods to sell, but it has not so far found an effective aidesm. The results of good salesmanship. These institutions have been so deeply imprinted on the African-American that they are made the beneficiaries of more legacies than any other single charity. When we take up the mormon tradition, we have been left large bequests in the will of the late so-and-so, we experience no sense of surprise in the Tuskegee Institute, such announcements that we place them among the ordinary occurrences.
Latest Bequest Amounts
To $200,000
The latest benefaction of this description came to notice in the morning papers of Thursday, the day on which the teachers were deed it furnished my theme for the week's release. Mr. Charles W. Troughton makes these institutions the leguages of his will, to share in the bequest in the intention of two to three, the account for the fortune thus devised is said to be two hundred thousand dollars.
The most interesting feature of this bequest is that it is provided that the students in these schools in these schools for boys and girls who are preparing to live on the farm, instead of joining the mad rush to the city.
The other account: "As farming is one of the most, if not the most, important occupations, and as it appears to be less sought after than other occupations, my earnest wish is to help make in the agriculture and kindred farming occupations in preferences to occupations that will take them away from country life, it being a counterfeit to the present tendency which is toward town and city."
Booker Preached
From The House Tops
Before the beginning of the world war we used to hear this doctrine proclaim: "We must win the wariness." Booker T. Washington preached it from the household. He firmly believed that in the long run the Negro race as such would be far better off in the country than in the city. His argument was plausible; his philosophy convincing. But the oncoming of the war created a sudden vacuum in the labor market of the North. The Negro population rushed in to fill the vacuum without rhyme or reason. For the past few years we have been lauding the Negro in the North. We have seen that in the light of allowed circumstances and conditions.
The Negro in the Northern cities is still an experiment. The recent Negro issue of the survey pointing out their need for better housing and deed an interesting portrayal. From the standpoint of immediate creature comfort and conveniences, these people are not much different than they were in their rural communities from which they came. Harlem is but unique of other centers in urban areas. By changing the name of the city and by making suitable modifications for local conditions, the Harlem edifice has become a more desirable Philadelphia, Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, or Pittsburgh.
Business Competition Not Anyways Near
There is a sameness of life and relationship in all of them. If we want to be a good man, the prospect does not seem pleasing. There is not the slightest indication in a single instance that the Negro will probably, at any calculable date enter into the race. The race of the cities in which he resides.
He is employed as a hand at good wages for the time of high wages. He does not become a self-esteeming person, lines such as barber shops, eating houses and beauty pariors.
Three hundred thousand Negroes in Haiti are involved as much independent business as an ordinary white community of five thousand souls. The competition is of the fiercest possible kind, nor is the Negro permitted to compete in a competition on terms of equal competition. The whole economic fabric is organized, with the black man outside of the organized community, and the cards are stacked against him.
Facilities Open
For A Good Time
He is afforded every facility for having a good time. Eating and
Negro In North Still An Experiment
drinking and dancing there is no end. Gayetey and frivolity are the order of the day, and especially of the night, when the group might be the future of the racial group in the urban centers which allure, delight for the moment, and destroy. When hard times come and employment becomes long and lasting. Who will picture the future of Harlem fifty years from now? To add to the gloominess of the prospect of the future, reliability in value that it is becoming increasingly difficult for the ordinary person to own a home. The sadest prospect about the Harlem Negro is that comparatively few do not ever hope to own their own homes.
Let me throw in contrast the Negro in Harlem with a little farming community that I now. This Negro set up a farm in the city five-five years ago, Freesco, California. It comprises about thirty ranches owned and operated by the Negro, and twenty-five years ago from Georgia. These ranches are worth the average of twenty-five thousand dollars. Each proprietor has his car in which he brings his produce to town or drives for pleasure about the country side. They are near enough the city to see the work which occupies. Each family feels its independence and relocates in its own self proprietorship. Do not have to take the little proprietor every day for their daily bread. These simple minded, though intelligent people have learned the hard way how to build splendid farm homes. They bask in the sunshine of their own settlement, and are proud to have built their own vine and fig tree.
I have taken this little settlement of some one hundred souls as typical of the Negro in the countryside and no proprietorship. There is no reason why such settlements might not be multiplied by thousands in all parts of the country. We are now leaving the farm with a rockless abandon. He is rushing into the city after the mad quest for gold. The Negro follows by another form of follower, a man to the city he loses in relative status. The Negro on the farm has all but the money he needs to pay a patron. He can produce precisely as much to the acre under the same tillage, and sell it at the same market. He can buy the city the white man is enhanced and the Negro depreciated. The city industries are organized, the agricultural activities are not. The Negro stands in an unorganized calfish and pursuits.
It is not necessary for the Negro to remain in the South in order to remain on the farm. He can move up the North and West which are being neglected by the hundred of thousands. What the white man resigns, the Negro should learn to do on the other hand when the Negro leaves the farm of the South, he never goes to the farm of the North, he boiler for the city, and usually the big city at that. Not only so he is rapidly leaving the farms which he formerly occupied in the old free farm, but he now grows in the rural portions of Ohio and Illinois than there were in 1860. The reason for their thinning out in the rural areas of the West is on the basis of Negro families in an environment of whites which withholds social relations from them become an object of interest. The quest of society of their own kind. The remedy for this is pointed out in the Fowler colony, where a group of Negroes carry their own social life
A people who do not own a considerable share of their environment will figure but be feebly in the management of their property, and the municipality in which they live. The social value of proprietorship consists not so much in its absolute as in its relative value. In the Survey that Negroes in Harlem have contracted for property to the extent of sixty million dollars. This sounds large in the aggregate, but reliably it is a small angle skyscraper. What makes poverty oppressive is its close proximity to overweening-wealth On the other hand the Negro farm proprietor is on one hand comparative wealth with on the other farmers in the community.
City Discipline Is Lacking
The Negro has not as a race yet acquired the discipline necessary to city life, the ability to discipline the city in the to save himself from destruction remains yet to be determined. A race of hired hands is a race of nobodies. A race of independent proprietors is the hope of the people. Of course I am not making a one hundred per cent argument, but am rather speaking in terms of averages. Some will and should come to the aid of the people for the development and exercise of great talent and large powers. But the masses of the Negro peoples are apt to be ground to powder by the pressure and attrition of city life into which they rush unprepared.
Troughton Bequest
Marks New Day
Well might we hail the bequest of Mr. Troughton as marking a new day in the trend of Negro movement away from the farm. It requires, education and understanding, to be evidently evidently in the country. The provision made in this will looks in the right direction.

COLORED ARTISTS TO INVADE EUROPE
Company Of Fifty Celebrities To Sail Early In May For Berlin
First Large Group of Actors
To Go In Twenty-two
Years
Fifty colored artists are said
to be scheduled to make an inv
invasion of Europe under the
direction of Morris Gest and
Arthur Lyons early in May.
Among those mentioned to take
the trip are Sam Wooding, Eddie
Rector, Bob Goines, Hall Moore, a
jazz band, chorus of 16 and others
who have yet to affix their signa
tures on the dotted lines. Berlin is
said to be the first stop in the
itinerary, with Paris, Vienna, and
Moscow to follow.
Late Show Models
The production will be modeled along the line of the colored shows that have been in vogue on Broadway and elsewhere for the past decade. The show will be selected from many of the famous floor shows in New York City. Morris Gest. is doubtlessly the greatest impressor in a decade, and will carry the projection to a successful conclusion, white to white, to his credit the production of innumerable floor shows in which our artists have appeared.
First Since 1903
If memory serves, no larger company has appeared abroad since 1903 when Williams and Walker made their trumpet trip to London with "In Dahomey." Various acts, bands and smaller units though have "treated favorable impressions of British isles and on the Continent.
"Shuffle" Didn't Go
Speculation has been rife con-
sidering that the European tri-
ply so often reported to the press,
has not been out by the
agent of the company.

Around New York With Billboard Jackson
New York, N. Y.—The Easter Parade on Fifth avenue, New York is a tradition almost as old as is the Avenue itself. So far as it goes, it is good; but you out of town folks who really want to see glad garments, radiant personalities, joyous people, happy individuals and collective picturesquenes framed in the world's largest picture, take a trip and visit upper Seventh Avenue, on Easter or any other bright Sabbath afternoon. The trip is worth the time; and we guarantee that it will ruin a lot of preconceived ideas about the Negro.
Church services brought the folks onto the avenue, and the Dextra choral concert at the Renaissance Casino augmented the numbers that passed to and fro, and what a fashion show it was. And, how the amusement folks did shine "On Stage." Men and women alike were correctly dressed. Among the men we might mention William Forrester of Musical Headquarters. "Black Carl" Johnson, of the Dressing Room Club, Clarence Bush, Wesley Jenkins, the film fellow, John Frye, of Moss and Frye, Fred Weaver, the Cleftie, who ran in from Philadelphia where he has been convalescent as being typical of the perfectly uttered manhood.
Mr. Free, Ruby Mason, Ida Day, whom we have not seen in many years, taught us how to dress, whose costumes would make any person turn a head in admiration or enjoy himself. We were both samples of the legion that one passed on the Harlem highway.
Mercer Cook
Mercer Cook, Mason, was in town for the day. He is a senior of Amherst College, where he has achieved his Pitch Award and wrote the musical 'Proin show'.

THIS WILL BE BANNER WEEK FOR THE DUNBAR
Determined, as always to give Roosevelt patrons the cream of the pictures, Manager Friedlander has booked the sensational "He Who Gets Slapped," for next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Following is a detailed outline of the story.
SLAPPED BY LIFE at every turn, a distinguished scientist, laughing at the rocky ridiculousness of events, hires himself out as a clown in a circus. And, in this bespangled world of fantastic enchantment, he finds new faith awakened in his love for the lovely back rider. But into their lives come the spidery Baron Regnard—it's a story that will whisper loudly hold you in the grp of its strange voice. "No, We Get Shapped."
Miss Lillian Reid, formerly of the Regent Theatre, is back at the console of the Roosevelt's organ. The return of the popular singer is evidently greatly to the satisfaction of the gatrons, if applause means anything.
"Dante's Inferno" At Dunbar
Asking the pointed question, ARE THE PEOPLE OF TODAY HEADED TO WARDEN HEAVEN OR HELL? Dante's "inferno," in all its magnificence, will be screened for two days, next Monday and Tuesday, at the Dunbar Theatre. Take this tip, this is the heavy artillery of recent
the modern version tells of the money-mad Mortimer Judd, as relentless in his business dealings as he is in his home life. On the occasion of a particularly nasty outburst of ego at home, the old yellow happen to open a volume *The Times* and a man he has cursed into a demon. It is "Dane's Inferno." In the luxurious library of his mansion, the soul of Mortimer Judd commences to re-travel Dane's memorable trip through Hell. But when his spirit is released from its curse, and he returns to earth, wan and weak from the exhausting brain storm, he realizes that what it may have done for countless other men, and what it may do for countless others. It made him see the folly of his greed and, most important of all, it made him think
"Classmates"—"City That Never Sleeps." Regent
"Class mates" a story showing the "wheels go 'round" at the West Point Military Academy, will play the Regent Theatre on next Monday and Tuesday. Michael Barthelmeis for the star, gives the military men a moulded, and thanks to the officers in charge of the Academy, "Classmates" gives accurate, intimate insight as to just how the feat is accomplished. The drama are those in which the heartbroken Duncan receives his dismissal from the Academy; the rescue scene in South America, and that in which Duncan finally triumphs.
Barthelness is ideally cast as the boy from the southern sticks who is all bound up in his military career attained against great odds.
While the work of the star is one of the outstanding features of the production, due credit must be given his support which could scarcely have been improved upon.
Mudge, who plays a splendid sweetheart; Reginald Sheffield, a villain who carries all the bises he should receive, and the characterization of James Bradbury, Jr., as "Silent" Clay, proves him worthy to bear the name of that excellent character actor, who is his father.
"Idaho" New Serial At Star
The "Delibered Revolt" coming to the Star on next Thursday is described as a dramatic thunderbolt. All of the human emotions have been intertwined into this wonderful screen triumph.
Thursday's picture, while attractive does not stack up as the best picture bet at this house for the week. Though appealing, the program for other days is equally as interesting. The third episode of "Idaho," the latest chapter play, will be shown on Wednesday.
New Goldfield To Play "Western Yesterday"
Thursday, of this week, the program at the South Baltimore house, is "Life's Greatest Game," featuring Johnny Walker, Benny Leonard in "King Kills" and the "Midnight Watch," a side-splitting comedy.
Last Monday opening day, hundreds of prospective patrons were unable to obtain admission. Two bands were in attendance and each kiddo present received an Easter egg. This spacious 500 seat house fills a much desired place in the South Baltimore section.
Lafayette Books Thrillers For Last Half
Not only persons living in the adjacent neighborhood of the Lafayette Theatre, Lafayette Avenue, near Stricker, have been attracted to the beautiful theatre, but folk from other sections of the city are also becoming patrons. First run pictures and the best obtainable in music are the magnets.
Twice (Thursday) of this week, magnetic Evelyn Brent, heads a superb cast in "Vanity's Price." Friday, An all-star cast presents "Lightning Romance." "Galloping Gallagher," starred by Fred Thompson has been booked on Saturday. Comedies, serials, and news reels are on each day's program. A matinee is given every Saturday.
Tony, Duke and Tom Mix, Carey Feature
Carey patrons should be pleased with their favorite Tom Mix in "Teeth," the picture chosen for their entertainment on Wednesday, April 29th.
If they enjoy loosening all stops in their emotions, if they love a dog that is a loyal and brave friend, if they have humorous heart and heartbeat best friends, they are in for an hour of happy emotional exercise when they ride with Tom Mix in "Teeth."
This latest achievement of Director, J. G. Blystone is an outstanding thriller that will stiffen muscles and curl hair. Tom Mix has proven himself a real artist in his perfect willingness to share equipment and can play in order to aid in the accomplishment of placing them in stellar roles.
The acting of the horse and dog place the film in the class of being a distinctive novelty feature, and the additional drawing power of Tom Mix's name guarantees good business for all exhibitors showing the pic-
The scene at the water hole where the wildly blazing fire threatens the life of an assorted lot of fugitives including wild cats, bears, coyotes, deer and mountain lions is intensely interesting. And in spite of the super intelligence of the dog and the wild fantasy of the tale, everything is tied together so naturally, so reasonably, with a sure hand, that it can be seen in the minute of the picture.
Claire Windsor, in the seven act screen classic "For Sale," comes on Monday 27th. An all-star cast in "Hearts of Ouk," is the attraction on Tuesday 8th.
Maybe so maybe not so, however 'ere goes. From New York comes the news that negotiations are practically closed with Roland Hayes to tour the Keith-Albee tims as a single, on his return to these shores from Europe. The Hampton Avenue stage, the Roland Hayes theater, the interiors. Should the above be fact, it will mean that the bigtimmers are about to recognize to a greater extent Negro artists doing more artistic things than those previously employed. Duncing, singing, and other "clowning" has seemed to be the character of act that received consistent work from the interests mentioned above before give their early start with it. Alba could choose if above materializes. The Hayes en we accept with a "grace of salt," but who knows?

Travis Tucker and "Happy" Dounevor head a "tab" of about twelve people at this house for the week. Tucker and his partner Annie Gresham, one of the best teams in vaudeville, surely have their work cut out for them in trying to carry a dead weight of the proportion that they have assumed with this company. Only assistance given them in providing anything that smacks of entertainment is the assistance of a small girl, who danced her way into high favor with the customers, thereby earning much aplause and quite a few nickels on Monday afternoon.
Travis Tucker and Miss Gresham both received onions on their entrances. They verified this expression, and she said, "I believe that "went" like a house a fire. Tucker mopped up gallons of applause with his song numbers as usual. His partner maintained her previous rep of being the singer of the song. Her singing is of the same delightful quality, and her English, as usual, will pass any censor board. As for the rest of the company NOT SO GOOD.

Dixie-Broadway Not Profitable In "Chi"
"Dixie-Broadway" was figured to be a consistent box-office winner in the Windy City at a $1.50 "top" during Easter week. But the news of the production opening in Cincinnati evidently shows that the price failed to attract sufficient business as low as it was.

DISPROVES SEGREGATION
Association Unalterably Opposed To Closing Door O Musical Hope
In a letter to the Boston Transcript the Massachusetts Federation of Musicians denied emphatically that they had a hand in harring any Negro from participation in the recent music contest held in Stetson Hull, this city.
In reply the Massachusetts lady says that the ruling adverse to the groves was made by the Nathan body, but was not acquired in the former. Even though by a bit of the state we are compelled admit colored as well as white.
Utterly Disapproves Ruling
Further, the letter, "We are mit the Negro not because we hate him, but because we want to. We hate him, but because we want to out of this ruling. Going on to the Massachusetts Federation offer in the future a state petition against negro conscriptive who is not a slave, we conscriptive and the confines of his State."
No Distinction As To Race
"The Massachusetts Federal stands now as always, for no distinction as to race, creed or color music, all other things and language—all other things and language—hearted encouragement will be given in so far as lies in our position to all young musicians of art and worth whether white or black."

MASONS ARE READY FOR CELEBRATION
Centenary Celebration Begins Sunday Afternoon At Metropolitan Baptist
ception At Lyric To Follow
Under the leadership of Grand Master Willard W. Allen, Grand Secretary George T. Duppin, and a Committee of One hundred, the Masons of the State are perfecting plans for the appropriate observance of the first hundred years of Masonic activity in Maryland.
Although Masonry is supposed to have been in existence 5000 years before the birth of Christ, it was not introduced among men of color in the State of Maryland until Feb. 2, 1825, when Friendship Lodge was warranted by Peter Richmond, Grand Master of the First Independent African Grand Lodge of North America, No. 1, of the State of Pennsylvania.
The present Most Worshipful United Grand Lodge is the direct outcome of that happening one hundred years ago.
The first service will take place next Sunday afternoon with a fraternal service with the other orders in the New Metropolitan Baptist Church, Mosher and McCulloh streets, the Rev. Dr. Joshua H. Green, pastor, instead in the Masonic Temple, as originally planned. The change was made necessary because of the large concourse expected to be in attendance. Orations will be delivered by Bishop John Hurst and former city councilman, Warner T. McGuinn. The renowned Eastern Star Choir (composed entirely of ladies), directed by Madam Annie Hazelton Lee, will render the musical program. At night, the anniversary services will be held in the Sharp Street Memorial M. E. Church, Etting and Dolphin streets, the Rev. Dr. W. H. Dean, pastor.
The sermonic oration will be delivered by Dr. Thomas H. Kiah, Principal of Princess Anne Academy and Grand Junior Warden of the Order.
The musical numbers will be presented by the Masonic choir, Wm. Bevans, director.
Parade Monday
On Monday, the grand parade will be held. Starting at Central avenue, it will proceed over the following route: Fayette to Hilliday, to Lexington, to Courtland, to Franklin, to Eutaw, to McCulloh, to Biddle, to Myrtle, to Freemont, to Pressman, to McCulloh, to Lanvale, to Etting, to the Church, where the anniversary session will be held. An array of State and city officials, tourists, business and professional men will participate. After the services, the order will proceed by way of Dolphin to McCulloh to Mosher to the Temple, where dinner will be served.
Reception
The anniversary recital and reception will be held at the Lyric. Anticipating an unusual audience, the entire building has been secured. The following artists will participate in the recital: The Aeolian Trio, G. Sylvester Mason, violinist, A. Johnson Holsey, tenor, the Eastern Star Choir, The Masonic Choir. The Commonwealth Band and Orchestra will furnish music for the reception.
It is interesting to note that Royal Arch Masonry was introduced in the State in 1849, Knight Templars in the same year, the Scottish Rite in 1865, and the Mystic Shrine in 1895. Every branch of the Adoptive Rite has been inaugurated. A fitting cimax of the celebration will be the beginning of the Order of Prince Hall, a department for the sons of Masons. A souvenir book edited by Professor George E. Biddle, will be issued.
During Sunday and a part of Monday, the Temple will be open to the public
Rev. C.E. Queen Off To New Charge
Washington, D. C.-The Rev. C. E. Queen, former pastor of the M. E. Church at Bennings, left last Saturday for Washington, Pa., where he will pastor the John Wesley M. E. Church, succeeding the Rev. E. A. Love, who was sent to Annapolis, Md.
The Reverend Queen had been at the Bennings church for the past seven years and during his pastorate built a new church at a cost of $20,000. He was recently transferred from the Washington district to the Pittsburgh district.
He has already spent two Sundays at his new charge and says that he was most cordially received by the people of Washington, Pa., and that he is very much impressed with the place.
$320,000 FOR NORMAL
Nashville, Tenn.—The Tennessee A. & I. State Normal School is rejoicing in the appropriation by the legislature last week of $100,000 for additions to the plant. This appropriation is matched by a donation of $100,000 by the General Education Board and $60,000 from private sources.

Rev M. H. Davis, Pastor of Waters A. M. J. Church, now attending Conference.
DR. D. G. MACK KNEW REV. JOHN JASPER
Local Pastor as Student at Seminary In Richmond Heard Famous Preacher
Hearing Jasper Preach, He Said, Meant 'osing His Dinner
Revival of the famous, "The Sun Do Move," sermon of the late John Jasper, of Richmond, recalled the fact that many Baltimoreans remembered the famous preacher.
One of them is the Rev. D. G. Mack, pastor of Macedonia Baptist Church, which is to enter its new building at Lafayette and Fremont avenue. Sunday, May 3rd.
According to the Rev. Mr. Mack, he was a student in the Union Theological Seminary at Richmond some 25 years ago when the Rev. John Jasper was the pastor of the Sixth Mt. Zion Church and the leading preacher in the city.
"Whenever it was announced that the Rev. Mr. Jasper was to preach one of his famous sermons we students contrived to start early and get there. We knew that this sermon was going to last two hours and that we had to be there about one hour before time in order to get a seat.
"Therefore, we took lunches with us because we knew we were going to miss dinner. The upper part of the church was always filled with white people. Members of the church had to content themselves with what ever space was left."
He was a striking preacher, according to the Rev. Mr. Mack. He used good English and delivered his subject with telling effect.
"I believe," declared Dr. Mack, "that Jasper's mistake lay in taking these passages of scripture referring to the movement of the sun and the flatness of the earth as literal instead of figurative."
Watty And Diggs Are Honored
Geo. A. Watty, leader of the recent Y. M. C. A. membership drive and Joshiah Diggs, who secured the largest number of members were guests of honor at a reception at the Y. M. C. A., Thursday night.
Mr. Diggs was presented a silver loving cup and Mr. Watty with a leather brief case.
C. C. Johnson, secretary of the Washington Y. M. C. A., watch lost to the locals in the contest, was present at the exercises when the local association was awarded the big silver trophy for the second time.
Other speakers included Bishop John Hurst, Dr. Harry Brown, S. S. Booker, and Geo. B. Murphy, presided.

Today’s Essex is.the finest ever built. It is the smoothest,
most reliable Essex ever built. It is the best looking, most
comfortably riding Essex ever built. And the price, because
of volume, is the lowest at which Essex ever sold.
Its overwhelming public acceptance
confirms by eee sales supremacy
the outstanding leadership of Essex
value. Never was:that position so
clear, and so rightly dsvarved as
today. .
Essex won its great recognition on
-the issue of finest quality, perform-
anée and utility without useless size,
weight or ‘cost.
And with its low first cost and oper-
ating economies, you get qualities of
long - lasting, reliable performance,
smoothness and riding ease.
Essex requires little attention to keep
in top condition. Its maintenance
cost,‘we believe, is the lowest: of any
car in the world. You sacrifice no
motoring pleasure, comfort or good
looks that large, high-priced cars can’
give. Essex is nimble of action. It is
easily handled in crowded traffic, re-
sponsive to oe call for poaye or
ace And with it you know all
the satisfaction that comes with its
distinction asa fineand beautiful car..
Can any other car within hundreds
of dollars of the price satisfy you
so well? t

Rev. Charles Stewart, Pastor o
Rev. Charles Stewart. Pastor of Metropolitan A. M. E. Church Washington.
Plan S. S. Field Day
The M. E. Sunday School of Baltimore and vicinity are making plans for their third annual Field Day, to be held at Morgan College sometime in June. Dr. Bernard Harris, Mr. W. Deaver Boston and Mr. G. D. Rawling are members of the Committee of Arrangements.
Holds Conference
Rev. C. Y. Triggs, the new district superintendent of the North Baltimore District, held his first quarterly conference at the Metropolitan Church last Friday night. A large number was present to greet the new district superintendent and pastor, Rev. E. S. Williams.
Gives Church Supper
The ushers of John A. Holmes Chapter Epworth League of Metropolitan M. E. Church gave a Smithville Home Supper last Thursday evening in the dining room of the church.
Mr. S. R. Moore is president of the association and Mrs. Bertha Janis is chairman of the supper committee.
Renders Cantata
The "Open Tomb", a sacred cantata which was directed by Miss Francis Smith and Mr. A. J. Holsey, assisted by Miss Bessie Anderson, Miss Maggie Bailey and Mrs. Ella Williams, soloist, was a success. It was rendered at the Sharp St. Memorial Church, Easter Sunday morning at 5 a. m. The church was packed.
The 11 a. m. sermon was preached by the pastor, the Rev. Dean. Eighteen persons were converted and 21 fainted in the church.
Visited Bishop Johnson last August Says Dodd
May I correct a statement or rather add to one, made in the AFRO last week with regard to a visit made to the home of Bishop Johnson in interest of the return of the pastor of Bethel Church for another year.
This visit was not made recently as would appear, but during Aug., 1924. It was the outcome of this visit that caused the officials not to make themselves ridiculous by signing a petition that would be meaningless to the opportunity power.
WEEKLY SERMON
The sermon this week was contributed by the Rev. M. H. Davis, pastor St. John A. M. E. Church. The sermon next week will be given by Rev. J. H. Taylor, of Mt. Sinai Baptist Church.
CORRUPTION
"And I sought for a man among them to stand in the gap before me for the last; but I found none." EZEK. 22: 30.
The twenty second chapter of Ezekiel The prophet Ezekiel shows in the text that the moral state and the feelings of the people It was common to see officials practice prophets God's highest representatives uponrupt.
The Priests who officiated i the tems come victims of profanity. The Princess, righteousness practiced wickedness and divided the people, who inhabited the kingdom Therefore the cause for this utterance the prophets, priests, kings, and people had as it was then that nothing weakens the scars and rulers, yea even the people them is the duty of the ministers as it was of their sins and transgressions.
When conditions become intolerable Go go and find a man to remedy such condi from Mesopotamia and settled in Ur, the little worshipped the heavenly bodies, the roes, graven images and their ancestors.
In that darkened State God appeared ed him saying "Get Ye into a land which afterwards we have been reminded to remem doomed and the whole of the pit whence we ham your father.
As a religious thinker and restorer of God, Abraham had no equal. He is a man eousness in the gray dawn of the Jewish more than anything else is a man, who we eousness regardless of consequences. A man before the Lord for the people
"And I sought for a man among them that should make up the hedge and stand in the gap before me for the land that I should not destroy it; but I found none." EZEK. 22: 30.
The twenty second chapter of Ezekiel gives us a catalogue of Israel The prophet Ezekiel shows in the text that a breach was made between the moral state and the feelings of the people.
It was common to see officials practicing corruption in office. The prophets God's highest representatives upon the earth had become corrupt.
The Priests who officiated in the temple allowed themselves to become victims of profanity. The Princess, whose duty it was to reign in righteousness practiced wickedness and diverted justice. Like the priests were the people, who inhabited the kingdom of Israel.
Therefore the cause for this utterance was the sinful state into which the prophets, priests, kings, and people had fallen. And it is true now as it was then that nothing weakens the spiritual life of ministers, officers and rulers, yea even the people themselves more than sin. And it is the duty of the ministers as it was of the prophets to tell the people of their sins and transgressions.
When conditions become intolerable God knows just exactly where to go and find a man to remedy such conditions. When Terah migrated from Mesopotamia and settled in Ur, the land of the Chaldeans, the people worshipped the heavenly bodies, the forces of nature, animals, heroes, graven images and their ancestors.
In that darkened State God appeared unto Abraham and commanded him saying "Get Ye into a land which I will give unto you." And afterwards we have been reminded to remember the rock whence we are doomed and the whole of the pit whence we are digged to look to Abraham your father.
As a religious thinker and restorer of faith and worshiper of one God, Abraham had no equal. He is a man who stood for God and righteousness in the gray dawn of the Jewish religion. What we need now more than anything else is a man, who will stand for truth and righteousness regardless of consequences. A man who will stand in the gap before the Lord for the people

The Rev. J. W. Pembleton, retired A. M. E. minister, died here April 9.
A. M. E. minister, died here April 9. He was a charter member of Madison Lodge No. 8, of the Seven Knights and Sisters of U. S. and A., and therefore was given the honor due him from the lodge, who tendered him a resolution. Whereas God in his all-wise wisdom, has taken away from us one of our charter members, in the person of the Rev. Pemberton, we be moan our loss. He was a faithful worker in the Payne Memorial Church and a member of the A. M. E. Ministers' Meeting.
The Asbury M. E. Church held the dedicatory service in their new church, Lexington and East streets, Easter Sunday, April 12th. The Rev. Samuel Aquilla offered prayer and Bishop M. W. Clair preached the 11 a. m., sermon, subject, "God's Protection of his People."
The 3 o'clock p. m., services were presided over by the Rev. Julius S. Carroll, the district superintendent, Bishop William F. McDowell preached the sermon and dedicated the church.
The Rev. Carroll preached the evening sermon. There will be preaching services each week night throughout the month by visiting pastors.
The offering was very liberal. The church was very crowded all day.

A Weekly Review 07 Lahor and Business
Contucied by Witiam 3, Jones
660-William L: Fitzgerald-$1,250,000
Monumerits are NOT built to men who never had any
difficulties to overeome. Neither are bouquets thrown at
those who accomplish only the ordinary. It is not a coin-
cidence that our leaders in every walk of life ave persons
of courage and decision—the “doers” and the “go-getters.”
‘The average man is, after all, a person of small attain-
ments, ‘Roger Babson showed by statistics that the average
life of a grocery store in a large city is only 7. months—and
that 50% of all the firms of this country fail inibusiness over
a period of 20 years.
Tt is the more remarkable, in the light of such facts, to
note that this spring marks the passing of the twentieth yea
in the life of thé Real Pstate business of one of our citizens,
William L, Fitzgerald. ‘The fact is noteworthy, and one that
fills us with a certain pride in our own race.
Beginning in a small. way, the business met with the
usual discouraging bumps and set-backs; by sheer grit and
hard work, seconded by a resilient and cheerful spirit that
was not to be denied, the founder saw his efforts blossom into
‘an organization that today has charge of over 600 houses
fepresenting the impressive total of some million and a quar-
ter dollars. And it is still going strong.
ter The AFRO-AMDRICAN feels that the erator of such a
lusty near-adult as this 20-year old business concern, deserves
the heartiest congratulations. May he and his work live an-
other twenty years—and another!

SAY RATS ATTEND SCHOOL CLASSES
Health Week Survey Shows Rodents Menace Health In No. 116
EAT ON SICK COUCH
Find Teacher's Lunch And First Aid Table To Be One And The Same
That rais attend history, spelling and arithmetic classes and show up regularly at devotional exercises in Public School 116, was revealed in a report of a committee to study sanitation in certain public Schools sent out by the Health Week program.
The committee which is headed by D. O. D. Jones and R. Maurice Moss, of Baltimore Urban League, visited Schools Nos. 103 and 116 and their report in part on same follows; School No. 103 was found fairly clean but the room, which is used as an infirmary in case of illness is also the rest room for the teachers and the room used by them for cooking and lunch. The medical cabinet was found to be a desk drawer. The eating table for the teachers and the sick couch found to be one of the same. The groom lavatory was found to be in initial condition but the boy's was better.
School 116, according to this report, was built in 1841 and was entirely inadequate for its purpose. The first complaint registered by the teacher being the prevalence of rats. One teacher reported that they attended history classes, spelling lessons and devotional exercises without any distinction. Another teacher exhibited a newly covered note book which had been placed on the desk and which showed, grease spots caused by rats tracking in this drawer. The rooms are large but poorly ventilated and poorly lighted, artificial light being necessary for brightness of the room, but that the draining fountain for the girls and bees out of use for three months and that for the boys inadequate. Other bad condition were noted."

GIRL RETURNS WHO MAN GIRL ACCUSED SHOT LOVER'S WIFE IS GIVEN FREEDOM
It is of special interest to note the foreigner's point of view relative to race amalgamation. The Negro problem in all of its ramifications was discussed a great deal during and following the Civil War and the period when the foreigners exhibited or keen interest in America's race problem. The French point of view on race amalgamation is quite unique.
Being of a matter of fact turn of mind, and cut off from contact with all but a few Ngroes, it is not a surprise that among the French we should find a sacer attitude toward race mixing than among some people. A number of Novels
A number of novels have been written recently by French authors bearing on race imamrama. Among these, the two most important ones perhaps are "Blavis of Nous" and "Romulus Coucon" by M. Paul Reboux. After writing "Romulus Coucon", M. Paul Reboux sent the following questions to the leading men and women of France.
1—What is your opinion of the treatment of the blacks by the Americans?
2—What do you think of marriage where the different races mix?
3—What man distantly descended from blacks no longer reveals the characteristics in appearance, if he is agreeable tender and faithful do you believe, he could be loved and be married by a white woman?

Young Woman Says Bullet Which Killed Spouse Intended For Man
That the bullet which fatally wounded Mrs. Harrison Marshall two weeks ago was intended for her husband, was the statement made by Miss Lucy Smith, who fled the shot, when she returned to the city his week and surrendered.
The surrender of the young woman was thought about through her attorney, J. Stewart Davies, who induced her brother to find her whereabouts and bring her back. She had been at large since the shooting.
Intended For Man
Miss Smith is now ready to face the ordeal of a trial for staying the wife of the man she loved, it is said, and she was surrendered to uneastern Police officers Tuesday.
According to her story, she had met Marshall after his separation from his wife and the two lived together at the Bethel street address. At the point she shall is said to have slipped from the house and paid a visit to his wife. She followed him and demanded that he return to the house and get his clothes. At this point she is alleged to have reached threatening toward his hp pocket and the woman declares she then shot n self defense. The shot went wild, lodging in the breast of Mrs. Marshall, causing her death a few hurs
The shooting took place at the Eden street address, where the wife was visiting her daughter Edlow; who lived in the home. The mother, it was said, spent most of her time in service in the suburbs. On the night of the shooting the husband to care to visit the child. The shooting took place in the doorway as the other woman did not enter the house
Tuesday, 5 P. M., Dead Line
had the pleasure of reading and translating some of these replies Of 2040 answers received, on the question "Would you marry a colored man?" 1060 said no and 981 said yes. Two of the four women on the list of replies have colored husbands. These replies were published in 1920.
All of them are interesting and informing. In the characteristic French manner, each writer approaches the question calmly, dispassionately and sanely. They seen frank in the giving of their opinion. This collection of opinion or the writer's marriage is the largest that the writer has had the privilege to read.
Social Environment
Of course, every American knows that the French live in a social environment more conductive to sane and unbiased; consideration of race amalgamation than the which exists in the United States Our Negro population is over 12.5 million while White has scarred: Negroes accepting those in her military service.
Already there are about 2,000,000 mulattoes in the United States. And thousands of white Americans have Negro mulattoes. One of these facts however, alarming to the white. The situation calls for cool, calm intelligent action, not harsh blind action. It requires scientific, social action. It requires active bravery to brush such as the Stoddard—Grant Cox group; is noted for them.
As for race mixing, who can stop it?

the act committed by the man,
and was secured Easley was
given a hearing Friday morning.
