PINT BOTTLE The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly AFRO REPORTER VISITS 'YELLOW CHARLESTON' Slayer Of Baron Wilkins Awaits End In Sing Sing Death House "NO BAD FEELINGS, I'M SORRY" HE SAYS Several Others Including Two Women In Narrow Circular Cells BY GEO. E. TAYLOR Ossining, N. Y. "The wages of sin is death." We die more than one death. The living punishments entail agencies beyond any human expression. This applies to "Yellow Charleston," who committed two murders in the hospital who has just been released from the hospital at Sing. Sing, where an operation was performed on him. He is now being retained for the murder of Barron D. Wilkins, in Harlem. Charleston had less than an hour before shot down a densely man in his dive in 1347 In Death Chamber When I walked with him to his cage in the death chamber after leaving the hospital, he looked the perfection of a human wreck. He told me that all vengeance of anybody in the world had long left behind him. "Awfully Sorry" "I am awfully sorry for myself, and what I have done. Wish I would get back to you. When you go back tell my kids to beware of the fate that awaits them if they are following the same life." "The death house at Sing Sing awaits it with grim patience. The confinement is unbearable to say the least." "Charleston" is not allowed to move about without request from the guards, whose sharp eyes are upon him both day and night. "Two Women Near There are several others including two women in the coral cells, awaitting you. Some with hope rising fuller." Nobody is allowed to read a newspaper. Preschools and priests are concerned. The death rages are situated in a circle just outside the green room, and beyond this, a few feet, is located the electricity chamber with the chair seated on it. Just a Short Walk You take the short walk across the circle, through the door and you are likely not to look to the left, but to look to the left. The prisoner is at once touched on the left elbow and whispered to, to "step this way." It is his last turn in life. A安置点 Go A安置点 The man's eyes are in the chair attendants are busy.

Mayor Paline of Memphis, is to be revered for recognizing Tom Lee as the first African-American to dentally give the conscience of the Democratic party of the Southland some perturbation when it is realised that the majority are voiceless, "Tom Lee" should be given access to the ballot, and the thousands of worthy Negro citizens who have been withheld from the U.

Queer School Durkee H'ads Enrollment37,Graduates41 Howard Presidents Eloquence Before Trustee Board Explaining Student Strike Will Be Worth a Bo Seat Says Alumnus By Alumnus The "Bloodless Revolution" at Howard University has been brought to a successful termination. The university has wounded sensibilities. In the pages of dubious duration, has been sigmed; and the battlefield has once more become the campus. Only one act remains to make the university a better abdication of the totering thurby by King James". Unless the omaa are misleading, this final act may be expounded. The entire body of undergraduates declared war on the administration, on account of the physical training of the most bitter in the history of Howard University, raged for a week, with the students standing on the precipice, and rights. Twenty Cut Rule The students demanded that the notorious "twenty cut" rule be abrogated. The faculty maintained that it was their prerogative to make the rule pertaining to the academic subjects. All the while, President Durkex, whose influence with students and faculty is at-zero point, stood by a helpless and frenetic response. Some time ago, on recommendation of the president, the Board of Trustees created the department of physical education, and the president called upon the several faculties of undergraduates to make the new course function. More Physical Education In deference to the president's recommendation, it may be said that there is a widespread tendency, in modern education, to give physical education courses announced in the college curriculum. Working on the Durkean principle of revolutionary, rather than evolutionary, changes, the general faculty, with the approval of the president, has been instructed that twenty physical training cuts would be sufficient to expel a student from the university. A cut was interpreted as an absence, regardless of the cause. Neither illness nor any other uncontrolled detention exempted the president, must not accumulate twenty cuts. Cuts Accumulated Almost incredible was the facility with which such cuts might be accumulated. For example, on Thursday, R. O. T. C., roll-call was frequent. It was possible for a student, on this occasion, to draw as many as five cuts on the colonel was at liberty to send in, on any day, as he desired. Twenty cuts, therefore, did not necessarily mean twenty days' absence. The entire number could be accumulated in less 'Two Days' Drilling The physical education program of the male students below the junior class called for three days of physical training and a T. C. Juniors and seniors who were candidates for commissions, were required to drill five days a week and take two additional periods of physical training, and seven periods a week. Other male Juniors and seniors followed the requirement of the lower years. The female students were required to take daily training, and nearly in classes of ninety or more. Use Cigar Box A glance at the physical equipment of Howard University will reveal this program too ambitious for the university, but no gymnasium and the young men have an overgrown "clear-box," called for catalogue purposes "Spaugeling Hall." As a result of the inhygienic conditions, under which the students have been laboring, have been appaling. Students have been required to take the course and then rush into academic classes. Students became indifferent to the course. The male students began to cut won't. The female students required the deans to notify students when ten cuts had been accumulated in physical training and to expel the offenders when twice the warning number had been accrued. Mushroom Growth A law, of sudden birth and mushroom growth, needs proper care for the students operating it fairly. Three weeks after the law was put into operation, the students were advised and cuts were made. Five male students were expelled. The manifest weakness in the administration's case lay in the subsequent failure of the cuts, should not have been expelled, because of discovered irregularities in the record. It developed that they had not accumulated twenty cuts. The correction of the records was not made until after the students had threatened to kill. Rule Was Vicious Members of the faculty, though solidly behind the enforcement of the rule, admitted, in silently too many ways, that he was vicious and could not possibly survive beyond this waning time. Some professors could not even recall when he was vicious and could not possibly survive beyond this waning time. No one should challenge the faculty's right to make and enforce its rules. But rules should emanate form, and the faculty should have father has the right to make his child unhappy, but it should be his constant desire to make it happy. A vicious rule yielding to the demand of a laek is not a good idea. She had a right and stood on it, only to lose that right and her most serviceable colonies. If the rule was vicious, she would have gated, and no pride would have been expended in the action. Without Foundation The fear of the faculty was without foundation. Howard dreaded death, thrustfully, and has never turned out a thor or an anarchist. The record of Howard men and women for obedience to law and order is an enviable one. They have never attempted to dictate the courses. They have never attempted to teach. When given a square deal, there is not anywhere a more successful and amiable student than a Howard undergraduate. Tolerate No Intolerance Howard students have never tolerated glaring injustices. Whenever the teacher has risen like men and women to demand fair play. On one occasion, they were forced by a trader prize to demand president, and he went with dispatch. Our readers, however, want a report on the leadership of this outbreak, for the best barometer of leadership is trouble. Decisions in crisis make or destroy names. Well, the trouble broke out. "Cowards and faint-hearted runaways for ora tions when the foe is near"; so Dr. Durkee made a trip to Boston to deliver a speech. He will recall that Dr. Durkee is President of Howard University in Washington and of the Curry School of Expression in Boston. The former admits all races; the latter bats colored applicants. The Curry School offers several exercises. President Durkee presided and made the commencement address. Misleading Eloquence In his eloquently misleading way, Dr. Durke actually signed his name to a statement that the entire enrollment of his Boston annex numbered 11,000 students. May 7th gives a list of 41 names of those receiving diplomas: so it is obvious that in order to get rid of his students, Mr. Durke must graduated his whole institution, plus the janitorial force. If ever Howard University was in need of a president, it was on May 7th. Mr. Durke walked out. President Durke, with full knowledge of what was happening in Washington, was in Boston! There can be no satisfactory explanation of this gross indifference to his Boston Means More We are beginning to feel that the Boston institution means much more financially to Dr. Durkee than the statement of his official organ personnel and President of the corporation. He must be a part owner of this private school, and in this office must be receiving an income not properly termed a "salary". A school of 37 that graduate may be queer in other particulars. Whatever the secret may be, Dr. Durkee must not be permitted to run two schools. He did not resign from the Boston school, nor did he receive deferred applicants. We surmise that it is Howard than he is going to give up definitely. Returned To D. C. After finishing his business in Boston, including a meeting with his board, he returned to Washington, Trouble always pursues him. He bitter warfare awaived him. The local alumnus rushed to his aid, among them Attorney Thomas H. H. Barker, the Reverend Doctor D. E. Wiseman; Attorney Thomas Johnson; Mr. M. M. M. Morton, Mr. J. M. Carter, and Mrs. Marie Marie Marr. Offices Refused Durkee promptly refused their proffered offices and boffeted the students of youth; said that he actually enjoyed it, for it furnished an outlet for the pent up affectionate of the students and the teachers, the students would all be back in their classes within twenty-four hours. The committee told that the press had a program. POLICE CALLED Dr. Durkeer's program was first to clear himself of all responsibility and then to call in the police department. In vain, he tried to persuade the students to take responsibility for the faculty alone should he hold responsible for their plight. He assured them that he would settle the matter in two hours. Of course, he did not settle it in just two hours. The compromise that brought a cessation of hostilities was the very one that the alumni committee wanted, the president to accept. Dr. Durke had absolutely no part in the settling of the Report To Trustees The scene will now shift to the meeting of the Bear dof Trustees. It will be worth the price of a box-seat to listen to Dr. Durkee's report on the strike. He is going to fasten all the blame upon the faculty, who will have no representative at the meeting to do, and then. He is going to slander the local alumni. If we mistake not he is going to get a "vote of confidence." His eloquence will be so captivating. In all probability, President Durkee will offer his resignation. Such surely would be slender wefulness he may have. It is so impaired that it cannot function. He has had seven years of misgovernment, during which time the School of Applied Arts has been on a strike not to mention the widespread strike just settled. Rules affecting chapel attendance set into motion the preliminaries for a strike that was narrowly averted by the president's surrender. Dr. Durkee has been permitted to employ and discharge at will. He has insulted colored professors with impunity, calling one a "contemptible puppy" and assaulting another. He has lost his life. He has lost the student body, and the confidence of the alubody. He has embarrassed the Board of Trustees by accepting the presidency of another institution—one that bars He has not improved standards at Howard. The Class A rating was secured in spite of the barriers to make Howard a big institution. Only the persistentist gift of the college faculties has saved Howard thus far. He has not increased his involvement on his part. Though time for filling local pupils and administering his Boston school has been plentiful, he has done above and beyond when years to raise money for Howard. All this talk about securing federal appropriations is bosh. Just read the note. Howard will note who presents the arguments for Howard's appropriations. Dr. Durks is hardly more than a visitor on such occasions. His only claim to retention is that Howard is a semantic board of trustees. To attempt to bolster President Durkee's administration by appointing a new president, it would be very hard if the Board of Trustees of Howard University would pass such a resolution. It is more doubtful if any member of such an honorable board would look as though he used his trust to secure a salaried appointment. If the trustees are seriously contemplated, it would be increasingly included, relying on the principle that two half-presidents will make a whole one, as is true of musical notes. No. Strong Educator No strong educator would serve under Dr. Jurkee. This is an assured fact. This vice-president business was virtually tried before. The eminent Dr. Carter G. Woodson was brought in by Dr. Jurkee's administration. If you want to know what happened, just wait until we reach that chapter. Didn't Stay A Year The learned doctor did not tarry a whole year, and what he told the "King" would furnish the plot for a movie. He would present an engagement with an executory administration is long enough. If hostilities do not break out again, before we go to press, we shall surely take that piece into account that film that beatured the non-colored professors.

However, the auditors were highly demonstrative of the splendid efforts of everyone concerned. It may not be amiss to mention that by a regrettable mistake Schools 115, 108 and 123 were not mentioned in the report. The schools did their efficient bit to perfect the general ensemble.

It has been hoped that the gubernator will be increased to 12 this 35 To Play A. Jack Thomas, director of the organization, says there will be 85 members in the band this season. Last summer the group was shortened with praise for the excellent progress given in all sections of the Second Municipal Unit As was pointed out in a recent article the engagement of a colored band is known to exist among other musical groups outside of Baltimore in a similar capacity in the parks of New York.

C.—Sunday night in the State College Auditorium, Charles J. Harris, tenor and former accompanist for Bound Hayes, an artist and representative audience in a wide postal. The program was arranged to give his audience a variety of compositions and works of the family, including works by writers of color as well as the opposite race were well presented. He also showed exceptional mastery of Italian in a series of BilboBilbo and company works. Burleigh, Burleigh and company were among the best presented. Such selections as "You Ask Me If I Love You," by Burleigh left the audience charm as the painter's patience and ease, which the artist, the old favorites as "In Promise Me," and "Kiss Me Good-night," were highly appreciated and the occasion been appreciated the artist would have been recalled. Mr. F. F. Mayson assisted by playing several cornet selection. The accompanist, Theoredo Phillips, a recent graduate of Oberlin Conservatory, Mr. Harris was trained at the New England Conservatory of Music. He is also an authority on music, painting his experience as a concertist or teacher for three years, and teaching colleges of the race.

REGENT Allen and Stokes of the "Darktown Blair" have returned to this house for the third time, telling that they believe in being stronger at each visit. Monday night's audience, most a capacity one, has every latter routine. Much of the latter remains unchanged. There are new members and new faces, some however, overseeing new, nectarous productions. An impersonator, Keith, I believe it is, turned on a monologue so full of genuine humor that I way. A "charleston" executed by the chorus and two male principals caused the house to reverberate. They were Street to the Avenue. The customers demonstrated their thorough approval by demanding that it be repeated until the chorusmen were near the Arthur Allen and his trusted violin was another consistent point of departure. He stepped in a quarter invitation, and a "hot" bliss music murdered the characters. Helen Stokes, looking decidedly fetching, as usual, inspected by Allen inserting the pins for a "strike". Their finish was a duplication of the first, and middle stages, which does a small part as a cop. I daresys his duties as since manager prevent his attempting anything more proactive, and I lied to have seen him do a aerial stuff. There is a whirlwind succession of work that will assure you that you will not ask for rain checks after seeing this one. The costuming has been done by a man named mary, can honestly say that this is one of the really worth white productions of the season. James has done a great stage in his same efficient, manager. J. Louis Johnson of the Johnson and Lillard, writes that the act is still engaged by the Keith office. They are both confirmed AFRO. A clipping is enclosed from a Hitchburg. Mass., paper which states that: "The program opened with Johnson and Lillard in song their song. They went over their song and each has a good voice. They give more of a singing act than the average offering of its kind and make of splen- impression". The act was spot-ted the week of the work. K THOMAS STAR Two acts only appeared here on Monday afternoon at the opening of the session. 'Boots' Hope who was to have appeared was delayed, having been enroute from Cleveland where he finished an engagement last week. White and Robinson, two men, were spotted number one. Their only thing in their routine that even approached exciting the amusement centers. Mayo and Glenn came to considerable noise made by the customers. Mayo was forced to ask for order before the disorder subsided, and another act at the evening shows the bill was made more palatable for attendance at later hours. Some of the customers remarked to the management that "hops" had been put on after "smoking" the vaudeville machines have been installed by Chester Seward, the house operator. BALTIMORE ACTRESS REVIEWS OTHER DAYS Played Everything From Cakewalks To Shore Resorts And Skating Rinks KNEW THE LATE ERNEST HOGAN Tells how Madison Reid wrote First Successful Song On Piece Of Brown Paper One of the original actresses in Baltimore is the popular Minnie Mackless known quite favorably to those who attended the theatrical amendment afforded in local houses not many years ago. The artist was born of Virginia parentage (when she didn't say) whenever that event happened, however, it has not depreciated her career so much. Perhaps the taking on of weight that has come in later years has slowed up her dancing ability, but there is no evident depreciation in her interest in the stage although her interests are now concentrated in estate and other business projects. Knew Ernest Hogan Like many other little, children, the lady first began dancing to the strains of street pianos or hurdy gurdy or singers; she were the first to town of this day. Successive years found her gradual entry into professional ranks as a cakewalker. Soon she added singing to her repertoire, and she began to instruct English and appreciated his instruction about song and delivery. Madison Beld's Song Soon came an opportunity to join a company sponsored by S. H. Holley at the West Shakti School in West Palm Beach. Bob Jobs was then producing shows in the theatre. Miss Hackles also remembers that Madison Reid, the enterter in the song writer. His first effort was "Hannah My Coal Black Lady." This composition was written on a piece of brown wrapping paper in its original arrangement, yet turned one of the best sellers of this day. Worked Waterfront Parks Following Kirly's came other engagements at various waterfront resorts for there were no colored costumes, but no time. Kelly's, Warners, and Shadyside were all played in the order given. Soon Riverside Park, the resort or white pants made a difference, and the artist joined John Bamby, the late Jita Gross, Rachel King and others more or less prominent in the theatrical circles in this production she was reengaget for several seasons. "Press" Jenkins Place A colored band gave accompaniment for the singers, and music for ballyhoo (advertising) purposes. When colored vandeville was produced by Preston "Press" Jenkins white, in a combination with the band in Stockholm street, Miss Hieckess was a member of that company. Is Property Owner Soon after the beginning of consistent variety among colored artists she joined hands with Sam Hopes and with Bob Hopes. As a member of both these teams much theatre territory was covered. Tiring of the strenuous demands of the theatrical game the artist had to play, she estate which she manipulated until she is now the owner of one of the show pieces of surburban Baltimore near Burbankers. This property has been remodeled and brought up to date. Still Dealing Her last "fyer" into property acquiring is the taking over of a modern house in East Baltimore which she says she will make "go. go. go." Jessica Hackess from pass performance it is not difficult to believ her.

Medium Beatrice Bruce rendered an old acting in soprano and contralto voices. Bailey and Jackson, jibbed as the two comedy sketches, with Brown in first a Jew and then an Italian role. Miss Bailey nearly stopped the show in first a jazz dance with a dummy. Miss Bobby Covington, a soprano, sang one numerical number and then two jazz songs.

Brown, Nat'l Champion 19.2-23 New York.—The sun set forever in 1924 on Negro tennis at Baltimore near some of the properly faced public tennis courts of Drudg Hill Park. But pat ball pushing artist has gained his eternal glory in the category of foot-work and net rushing. Ten years ago he brought to a close, he was no mourners outside of Washington and Baltimore. Good Courts In N. J. On: On! To the high promontory of the six fina courses of Borden-town, just an hour's ride from Philadelphia. The date of the 1925 National tournament—Aug. 23 to 29—marked a new enumbration in rocky by the American Tennis Association, the only National organization among colorful people.

Baltimore Lawyer I probably flatter the Baltimore lawyer who constructed the above when I say Amen! I is here hoping the anticleric American dating game of the players of the United States Lawn Tennis Association as well as any their committee's abusive repercussions on the inmates' rules are very prone to imitate all the follies and none of the virtues of the upper crust. Let's hurry and pass on to the new darker people who will be crowned international tennis champions in the next silver jubilee just as they have broken the phrase of athletic process during the past decade. Ideal Setting Bordentown with its green pastures, evenly clipped lawns and dormitories overlooking miles of a winding river offers the ideal setting for a new step up the tennis career in 1925. Most important of all, Bordentown's leaders have caught the vision. Tennis players will have greatest week of the year, guests of Principal Valentine, an expert and former innsmouth tennis champion, who believes its the finest game in the world for young and old, and he does not hesitate to support at Bordentown College. It's a splendid tribute to his leadership and sportsmanship to see the enthusiasm in which he faculty and student body have started to make No. 1 the best ever. No less credit is to be accorded Prof. Lester Granger, the Extension Secretary and student supervisor of the institution, has given his new credit to the New Jersey Tennis Association. Young Folks Out Mrs. Granger and several other bulles on the faculty, Mr. Williams, Mr. Jones and a number of the 18 students involved in the Prof. Granger's tricritical service and American drive and their idealization was in no wise minimized when they saw him shoot those scientific strokes out of the reach of the former national champion in sets on a recent visit in the school. Program Arranged At the Nationals in Bordentown ever night will not be a round of "Charlestonning", a Mr. Granger, a young man with a gleam in his eyes. The dinner will see that proper meals in the well-appointed dining room will be served continuously by experts from an immaculate cuisine during the day, and the evening change in the way of a trip to the "movies" in their own big auditorium is being planned by the Professor, where some of the students are neophytes as well as past champions may view the new reels of the United States Lawn Tennis Association, showing interesting tournament and exhibition matches and Rihards' marvelous strokes and their proper execution. Tennis Flims There will be a good reminder to the students who have faithfully studied tennis and driving game throughout the summer and a revelation to the several natural born Negro tennis players—they are of course, unique in this respect, we pray some of the last of the players. They turn the lights out at 10:30 in Bordertown and keep the youngest and fearful in the youthful tennis experts who are ambitious to be champions will be unintentionally conquered by those who are consequently those of us who are planning to keep them aspiring to a more years with probably a perfect execution, because we have Rojo Injured Judio Rulo, the incomparable Black Sex star catcher is laid up this week with a spiked hand suffered in a game in Pennsylvania last week.

"Tiger" Flowers has started another campaign against the middle and light-heavyweights that will equal if not surpass his remarkable campaign of the first of this year, in which, Flowers, fought eleven matches in 8 weeks and earned for himself and manager more than $80,000.00. Fight experts marvel at the endurance Flowers has displayed and the speed he is able to maintain, while fighting every four or five days against the best in the two divisions. Miller Smiles Manager Walk Miller only smiles when favorable commutes are being made regarding the spectacular and beautiful life he lives. His great desire to always do anything he undertakes as good is better than anyone else can do it, which exhilarates markable success in the boxing game. Another Campaign Flowers is scheduled to fight Low Bogash, white, 12 rounds, May 25, at Bridgeport, Conn. Jock Malone, white, 10 rounds, at East Chicago Ind. June 5. Lee Anderson, 10 Rocky, white, 10 rounds, Cleveland, Ohio, is to select his opponent for a 10 round match June 16. Roston, Mass., is also to select an opponent for June 22. Jack Stone, white, is his opponent on June 26 at Elizabethtown, N. J. Cook, white, calls for six matches in four weeks. After Greb Manger Miller says that he has twenty-five offers on the waiting list after the ahoa event, and some of the will give him a lay-off of four or five weeks and that he hopes within that time to be able to induce Champion grape to induce Manger Flowers decision match at the middleweight poundage. Seven New York open air pro-series are desirous of closing a Grab-Flowers championship go. "The Fighting Deacon" The "Tiger" has not been altogether idle during his idleness from leading role of a five-reel feature photo play, written around interest in the new being and will be ready for release sometime during August. While the play is not a film play, it will be "The Fighting Desperon." Jamacia, B. W. I—The first of the Kingston tournament took place here last week. B. M. Clark, the West Indian team who gave the win, has had the last winter, won his game from M. Archer. 6-4, 4-6, 6-1. Major Nicholson 7-5 and 6-1. Clark won on his superior speed and service.

SPIRIT TAKEN OUT OF FOOTBALL CLASSIC A number of Howardites are dissatisfied and would like to see the school back in the Association, but it seems a certain bull headed group is determined to have their way or wreck athletics as far as Howard is concerned. Lincoln and Howard will have nothing to offer the public in football side of the Thanksgiving game. And it won't mean much which teams wins now since the zest and spirit of league competition has taken out of it. Several Lincoln men and quite a few teams have expressed the opinion that Lincoln will make an attempt to get back into the Association as soon as the Thanksgiving game is over. This will leave Howard in a pretty position. And now Howard has absolutely refused to meet her own alumni and other representatives from the Association for the purpose of arbitration.

At the age of 24 Syracuse could do in the 1824 Penn Relief game. At the rate Richardson is going now it won't be long before he will be able to equal the world's record of 9.3. We have seen a one man band, but this is the first time one man has equaled a whole track team. Roberts of Bordentown is the youngster in question. He won the broad jump, high jump, hurdles, was second in the 100 yards and third in the 100 meters. Cook sporting his record of Union University, almost duplicated Rohlfs's record called it a day after winning the almost 220 placing in the high jump and 440-dash dash.

DOPSTERS DOPE WILLS WILL BEAT WEINERT New York.—Some folks in New York are worrying over Harry Wills' work in the coming bout with Charlie Welmert. Wills figures to win no matter what may be said to the contrary. Hype Igoe. in the New York World says: "The dopesters have it this way. Harry Wills stopped Fred. Fulton in three rounds, Sred Fulton was a dangerous hitter and made Harry work fast. Charlie Welmert is a fast boxer and any man who won't box fast against him is going to get the short end of the honors. "They maintain that Harry will be forced to speed up over his usual gait if he hopes to whip the Adonis, a thing he must do if he hopes to keep his place in the sun. The dope is a treacherous thing to count on: Fighters act differently under circumstances. You can't depend on dope." "George Gardner could always whip Kid Carter, Kid Carter could always whip Joe Walcott and Joe Walcott could always whip Gardner. Three times around they did that. So wink at dope." "Wills: meet Weinert, at the Italian Hospital, Fund, Show and I. Weinert, into the Dempsey discard. The champion is going to fight. You bet yourself into a new hat on that, but if Wills can't whip, Weinert he will. If he can't, we love that he can thrash Dempsey for the title." "They talk at a $1,000,000 gate in this fight between Weinert and the Dempsey. Weinert will convince Dempsey the innocents that he has a $1,000,000 chance to bump Dempsey off.

Only a woman of the remarkable mental endowment of Madame Hightower, together with a philanthropic love for her RACE, so many times proven, would undertake to launch a campaign of such tremendous scope and such magnitude that she will be presented in prizes, Madame Hightower performs a service to her RACE that cannot be expressed in mere dollars and cents, for in sponsoring this remarkable contest she amuses and entertains her audience with her attainment of beauty. This great woman has most assuredly been destined to leave her indelible stamp on the Race she loves so well and serves so faithfully. The true personification of beauty betterment, she opens wide and welcomes all of the women and girls who avail themselves of this life-time opportunity. A Brief Sketch of Madame Hightower's Meteoric Rise A few years ago Madame Mamie Hightower was a mere nobody. Unhonored and unsung she struggled valiantly to carve her niche in the hall of fame. From an inauspicious beginning she has traveled and to use Madame Mamie Hightower a ladder of success. A beauty parlor on Beale Street was her first business venture and to use Madame Mamie Hightower's own words: "It was a hard road in those old days." But Madame Mamie had an ideal. She had vision. She had ambition did she have it? Did she have it and came to include the foremost families of Memphis. Surrounding herself with a staff of expert chemists she began to expand her business in a small way and realizing the tremendous benefits that she was conferring on her limited patronage. She began to work on her work by marketing her products over the Golden Brown label. Success came by leaps and bounds. Prosperity, even exceeding her fondest dreams, was a reality. But that did not mean "quit" for this wondrous woman. Madame Mamie was a trust of thousands who have implicit confidence in her judgment and undying faith in her products. The Tremendous Popularity and Growth of the Golden Brown Toilet Preparations Almost from the very first time they were put upon the market the famous Golden Brown Toilet Preparations had a steady and consistent sale. Rumors of the fame of Madame Hightower were widespread in West and already thousands in these localities were clamoring for her preparations.

BLANEY HALL SIGNS WITH THE BLACK SOX Blangy Hall, considered by many as one of the few great ball players has signed his John Handcock on the dotted lines and cast his lot with the Baltimore Black Sox for the 1955 season. Hall played centerfield last Sunday in the Hilldale game and showed some of his old time form as a hitter and fielder. He was a key member of the team for years, gained quite a reputation with his sensational fielding and batting. He worked on the diamond, a clean liver and will give to someone the greatest slugging team of the season. Just what position "Bob" Leonard will hold has not been determined by the Sox management.

The Sox hammered Campbell's curves and scored six times in the third inning driving him from the mound. Hilldale's best mound artist could not stop the onslaught of the Sox batters who banged them all at mill.

C.—In two exhibition games played here before large followings of both schools, Allen University, of Columbin, S. C., and Claffin University, of Orangeburg, S. C., the Claffin Panthers coped both contests. The first game was a fine affair of inside playing for teams and teams of the third victory for Claffin due to the excellent pitching of Knight for Claffin as well as good base running. The second contest was a run away affair and was featured by the heavy hitting of the Claffin sluggers, who bombarded the fence in the sixth inning by five singles, six doubles, triple, and four home runs, driving out three of Allen's pitchers. After the smoke of battle had cleared away Claffin had made 12 runs in this slither (sixth), bringing the final score up to 16 to 4 in their favor. At night a musical concert was given at the Silver Hill M. E. Church by the mixed quartette from Claffin and had accompanied the team here, while Justice gave "Ebibia at the Bar of Justice," was given the same night by a large number of Allen students at the Trinity A. M. E. Church. Wade Jahnston Makes Good With Kansas City Monarchs In the three-game series with the Chicago Giants, Wade Johnson, former member of the Baltimore Black Sox now of the world champions, Kansas City Monarchs, batted an average of .278. Johnson was at the bat thirteen times during the two games, and made five hits, at singles. Wade is considered one of the best lead-off men in baseball and by hook or crook invariably reaches first base. The ex-Sox player is a fast base runner, an adept at stealing and plays with his head as well as with his hands. National League Scores Weennesday Kansas City 8. Chicago 0. Friday Kansas City 8.

Saturday by a 7-3 score. Arthur "Rats" Henderson essayed to 'come back in the relief role after the local clubbers had driven the Rube Currie and minging. The one day rest, however, proved to be insufficient or the Rat did not possess his usual cunning, at any rate the Darby daisies pushed five runs over on Henderson. The Rube Currie, who tolled for the house of Bolden, held the enemy well in check arter the second frame when Pop Lloyd wafted one one of Ruth's shot over the centerfield barrier with a pull loitering on two paths, knotting the count at two. Homer for Lloyd This venerable Lloyd person welded a wicked mace throughout the fray. A double, triple and home work, especially when produced by an eligible for the Old Folk's Home. Mackey and Marcell Injured One of the players on each club wielded a firearm behind the work. Mackey sustained a split thumb in the third inning and will be out of the game for a week, while Ollie Marcell, third snocker, recently acquired the weapon struck by a lina drive from Thomas' hat and gave away to Finley.

For years I have dreamed of the day when I should have the means to search for the most beautiful woman of our race in America. I perceived that the women of other races were provided with cosmetics made especially for them. Many centuries ago our race knew the secrets of beauty culture—history sings the praises of Africa's beautiful women, it is even said that Cleopatra, the beauty of all beauties was of our race, but through the vicissitudes of fortune racial pride was lost, possibly when our forebears were dragged away, captives. I believed, and now I know I am right, that the Golden Brown chemists could discover formulas that would do for us what ordinary preparations failed to do. My Golden Brown Beauty Preparations have now been used for ten years and today our racial pride is awake. Look about you and see the difference! See the beautiful girls, the stunning women when next you go to a public gathering! See them on the stage, in offices, in stores, in their homes! Can you dispute me when I say our girls and our women are the most charming the world has ever known! by druggists everywhere who appreciate our trade, I am searching for her who most truly exemplifies the beauty of our group. Expense will not be a factor. Thousands of dollars will be spent in nation-wide advertising going to every nook and cranny of America, for she may be an obscure country girl—she may be a trained nurse, a lawyer's secretary, an actress; she may be married or she may be a debutante. Who is she? When I find her I will make her famous. I will dress her in fine clothes. I will present her with a luxurious car for her very own. She will be the most sought-after woman of our race.

William Daniel Turner, of New York, has invented a reversible shirt. This new garment has buttons back and front and is guaranteed to wear twice as long as the ordinary garment. You wear out the front of the shirt and then wear the back as the front. When one side of the cuffs are worn out, they may be turned over and thus made new. All of this sounds encouraging for the man whose shirt wears out most quickly at the collar and sleeves. However, what we want to know is how any mortal man can enthuse over a shirt with two sets of buttons when the laundry persists in getting rid of such objects at the rate of one per week.

While Congress debates the need of a bill making lynching a federal offense, mobs "carry" on in the South, winking at State courts and State laws or disregarding them altogether. On March 25th, a Sussex County, Va., mob of 500 persons lynched a man charged with rape. Last week a grand jury questioned a score of witnesses and failed to return a single indictment. Witnesses waiting outside the jury room heard only laughter and jokes as the doors were opened and closed to admit witnesses. In one sense these Virginia County folk were laughing at the motion of finding indictment of so large a number of lynchers as 500 or even of the leaders of such a mob. Mayhap some of the grand jury were mob members. But in another sense they were laughing at the State of Virginia, the weakness of the courts, State officials and the very idea of law and order as a governing principal. Beyond that they were laughing at Congress, which has debated a federal anti-lynching law for several years, at Coolidge, the president, sworn to enforce the constitution which guarantees every citizen a trial by jury. So the Waverly, Virginia, grand jury laughs. But there is no smile on the face of the Great Angel who deals in justice and retribution as He puts another black mark against the name of a once great commonwealth.

The Parents-Teachers Federation with a program for school betterment secured a hearing before the board. The Defence League and several other individuals thought it might be an opportunity for them to get a hearing before the board. In the absence of a specific invitation to attend they should not have felt peeved over the request to leave. The truth is that the Parents-Teachers Federation is in better position to speak for the schools of Baltimore than any other single organization. They it is who have a membership of 10,000 parents in the several schools and therefore in every sense constitute a representative body. Defense League and other bodies as tax payers and citizens have a right to express their views on school matters at the proper time and place and before the city authorities. No one gainsay this. But on the other hand, the body best organized and most competent to speak is that body made up of parents whose children are actually in the schools. Other organizations with money, brains, time and energy might well divert these talents to the question of colored police, for example, and permit the Parent-Teachers Federation to have an opportunity to handle school matters without any seeming opposition.

Mr. Schuyler is about the only writer we know, who, in the face of so much evidence would declare that parental care was needed and women in the South land did not sing their troubles away in "spirituals" and "blues" and that all is we said, that our attitude smacked of "uncle tom" philosophy was about as logical and square with the facts as it would be to say that a German reporter stated that the Tummer lost the war.

Benedict was given his freedom. Benedict was always very religious, and at an early age joined an association of hermits. Then Pope Pius XII entrusted Benedict entered the Franciscan Order. Owing to his virtues, he was made a superior of a monastery in Palermo, which he reformed and ruled successively. Promounced Blessed in 1743, and canonized in 1897. His feast is celebrated on April 27. St. Benedict is honoree of St. John the Baptist George, Chevrelon, of France. Salute George, Chevalier of France, was born on the Island of Guadalupe in 1745. He was brought to France in 1752 and taught skillful teachers. He was an admirable skater, expert horseman, and finished dancer. But his arts of fencing and music impressed him.

If these institutions cannot gea along with their students, they surely cannot get along without them. Unheeded Warning Only a fortnight ago, we called attention in this column, under the caption of "The Flasco of Dr. McKenzie, to the real cause of the attack," the president. The President of Howard University could not have read that article, or else he thought that we were unpractised in soothing-saying, a lack of underness of a flash of lightning, a strike of tremendous magnitude broke forth at Howard University. The students complained, demanded, and struck. Needless to say, they won their cause, and now they are theorized are on speaking terms again. We are not going into the merits of their opinions, but we are asking others determine the right and wrong of cases. We merely look for lessons taught and pass them on to our read- ers. Strange enough the R. O. T. C. organization which played such a conspicuous role in the teaching of young men how to fight. The young Negro is proving to be an apt pupil, for he now shows how to fight and how to fight effectively. If there can come any joys out of a brawn, two are certainly derivable from this recent clash between students and students waged an orderly campaign. They did not create excitement, damage property, or harm students in any real need of the police, though the blue-coats paid the campus a visit, only to return for the lack of business, and their heads, voices, and posters. Their unprecedented behavior under such circumstances won the respect of the police and the police department. The only group of important people whom they did not please was the faculty. Their voice was the police department was their voice. Spontaneous orators convinced their fellow students that their cause was just. Though these How-To books were dropping the debate at Atlanta University, they manifested forensic abilities, during the strike, that would have made the Halls of Congress take over. During one of these oratorical programs, a captain of the police entered and cruelt an oppose to be heard. He declined and gave the gist of his speech. He declined and was, consequently, denied a place on the program. Now wouldn't this make a program chapter in a new "Up From Slavey?" Solidarity Was Outstanding Feature The second joy, if such it may be termed, was derived from the solidarity of these young folk, the future leaders of the Negro race. In the case of the solid phalanx of students that he gave a lecture on "sticking together," this solidarity is most fierce for the special divisions at Howard, due to the unchecked activities of the fraternities and sororities. Solidarity is fundamental to race progress. The "new Negro" is learning that the race must hang together or hang separately. "In union there is strength," is just beginning to mean There can be no intense consciousness of racial greatness, of racial free. There can be no intense consciousness of racial solidarity. Fortunately, the impressional colored student is grasping this fundamental lesson. There can be no intense consciousness of Fisk and Howard. In both institutions, presided over by members of the race, the cry was to dethrone oppression. Democracy Of Interests Exemplified When these striking students once became imbued with the idea that they were being oppressed, they throw aside their social differences. Rival fraternities and sororities, male and female students, junior and senior colleges—all not able to form a cohesive group and fought for their principle. There must have been some fifty or sixty students who opposed them. When, however, the police department patrolled the campus and mishandled some of the female students, even these fifty or sixty students their classes to express their indignation. This act clearly indicates a new trait. Once the Negro could feel only comfortable with his catches, through racial sympathy, the blow that strikes any member of his group. The presence of such kindred feeling is the very essence of racial solidarity. Strike Was Great Fortune In many respects, however, the Howard strike was the greatest missi- ture of the 1960s in university. It was broadcast throughout the land. The white press is always ready to give the front page to the blacks and deny-professional injurious to the Negro race. Howard University is going, to lose a large number of students as a result of the strike. They will not return to the university. Howard and guardians have been worried. To parents at a distance, a strike usually connotes frightful scenes, with banging ammunition and blood. They may be locked through traffic. Every parent clearly visualizes these scenes, invariably identifying his loved one in the dangerous ward of the neighboring hostel, where there is no comfort for such a parent. It is a safe bet that this strike will be carried to the floors of congress, in a well-organized meeting, discussed. Many of the students are from the States. They have already sent their grievances home. The administration of Howard is sure to be satisfied, and issues raised by these constituents. Gov.

Now Howard has lost the point of order, will be raised yearly, and the fate of the appropriations will Campaign Orderly And Intelligent X al to race progress.

The assumption is that the federal appropriations provide for the tuition of students. For the reason, Montana uses the expression, "incidental fee." Once, therefore, the notion prevails that the students are neither grateful nor pitriotic, the federal coffers will Any congressional attack upon the students is going to force the administration of Howard to defame the students. Howard has a gratitude and dialogality. This defense will have to show that the students did not have the remotest intention of causing conditions to be much fought conditions incidental thereto. Once more we warn the colleges and universities not to treat their students like feudal slaves; these students will get along their students, they surely cannot get along without them.

To call one "sheeny" would be a disgrace; "darky" or "thunky" would be even worse. So cast from hearts from now and all times. All else even get such things in our minds. TERRISSIA SPENCER This Week's Puzzles This Week's Puzzles FIGURE THIS OUT A man cut a 50-foot rope into two pieces. One piece was three-fifths as long as the other. What was the length of each piece? Address your answer to Puzzle Editor. DO YOU KNOW YOUR "SIXES"? The drawing shows four rows of numbered blocks. The only figure which does not appear on any block is 6. Arrange the blocks in each row so that the particular row will form a number divisible by 6. The top row forms 123, which is not divisible by 6; hence the figures will have to be rearranged. The blocks may be set in any position, and changed from row to row if necessary.

Besides the child needs coffee, the mother corrects the correct performance of the act required. Why is it, though, that the child happily and well, but not her mother? This phase of the situation deserves her care and all who have the care of children. How exasperating, yet how human, is this? The mother then trust that of their own households: One reason is the spice of adventure things for someone outside the home. The neighbor requests a favor; errands looked upon as part of the regular job. Who does not know the zest of approving? Yes, there is expressed appreciation. Mrs. Maya "remembers her manners" and in thinking her afterward, we know without being told, it's the one all do-with the neighbor's Furthermore, the neighbor's request to deserve. This implied faith, the courtesies inquiry and graciously expressed thanks, paraphras a material payment, and the right. There is a very genial influence in faith; it suggests success, not failure, and memory, so that the child is surrounded by an atmosphere of purposeful experience. Of course, the neighbor's faith is based on comparatively few testings of faith, experiences with heedlessness and inconvenience. Yet has she not also learned her child's ability and rightfulness. The main trouble seems to lie in that old, old fault characterized in the "get off for our own the bitter tone." Though we have our own the best, times that we are neighboring ladies who want erased days and graciously meet the beginning and end of the trip?

Do not wait gather day, Price is only Call VErnon 6017 B-A-T-O-U-A-L-A A warrior with a spear and shield is attacking a kneeling man. Translated from the French and Copyrighted by Thomas Seltzer, New York Bisabingul walked through . the night. He carried a torch in his right hand and was armed with a bow, a quiver of arrows, and a huge likongo (spear) of thick, heavy iron, instead of the usual flavenin. In addition to these he had two throwing knives with him, an ample wallet filled with vials, and a dagger strapped under his left forearm. Thus he walked through the endless night, calm, unhurried, but with eyes alert and ears pricked for the faintest sound. How long had he been walking? He did not know. Only the boundous were able to divide time into equal parts. These parts they shut up in a little box with two, sometimes three needles of unequal length and rapidity that moved nimbly on top of certain figures. The kaga, Kossegamba. The brook Bouchou. Yabao, the delicious bath he had had in the Bouchou. The little village nearby built by one of the headmen of the chief Delepou. The road to the Government grounds. The commandant's stables a javelin's throw from the Bembe, and next to them the cemetery where the whites buried their dad. The Bembe, then the big bridge that spanned the Bembe. Finally the Government grounds, the planted fields, the commandant's kitchen garden, the great sheil which always shelters the chiefs and their men when they came to market rubber. After crossing the Pombo, Bissibulgi skirted Bataoula's village and made a run to Macoude. Macoude the fisherman. From him he would learn just where to find Bataoula. Macoude told him, and added as he told him, "We have recommendations, the very haziness of which made Bissibulgi's danger clear to him. To delay longer would be fatal. He could not get quickly. For a second he entertained the idea of ignoring Batoula's invitation and not attending the chase. On second night he sees the kid might be strange. "What would he risk? Meeting Batoula surrounded by his own people. It was not worn disappointing to me, but brought the blaze of trumpets, the crackling of flames, and the summons of the ifghans leaping from ecto to ecto. But what should he do and where should he do it? It was neither fair. Tom-toms, Bats, Owls, Fire-flies. Fires in the distance. A heaven of stars. And dew, the dew, the dew, the dew, was? Yes, what was he to do? He would not be killed that night, surely not that night. A murder was not committed before witnesses. He did what he should be, Biasingui, to rid himself of Batoula. Hmm, a little Lkoundou (pokon) would do it should not surprise him, to drink. "Making the panther" certainly had its attractions, and the javelin was not to be scorned. But not so the Lkoundou left traces. Bissibingal had thrown his torch away and was walking by the light of the moon, and seemed to lift in one leap straight up to the sky. He held his eyes fixed on the ground to avoid rocks and stones, and kept thinking as he walked. He rounded a kaga and was scaling it on all sides, in sudden licks and curses, snatching at the rocks or encircling the top, never letting go, not over after the tree had fallen into the night and lighted up the dark with its rushes. And where to kill Batouna? Am I going to die? Did I do wait? Provoke it? Ah, there was the difficulty. The final attempt. At the peak of the thunder, the flames United in one huge embrace, and the smoke went up dense, lurid. He would kill Batouna, or Batouna, if pleasanter than to be killed. When one was young and the women yielded to one's desires, life had charm. He looked about. Flies everywhere. The angas flared like torches in the night. Aha.aha! How about accidents of the chase? They occurred often enough. Ho wadabout it! One aimed everybody was skillful. And the browmarksmask might miss his shot. Ey-hey! And how about the brush fires? The firefighters wretches who were burned to a crisp. The fire devoured everything, not knowing what it did or whither it went. If one merely paused too long, the course course, it came upon one—the fire that spected nothing but water—and that only in a fury of ill-temper—then all was over. He caught fire or hunting accident. He caught his nose. Bisslingul peered niently. Every turn of the path in the dark might conceal a lurking enemy. It was well the prudent and keep a careful look-out. Ah, an ant-hill. And another ant-hill laid upon it lengthwise. Bisslingul might because the second ant-hill was placed with the cap on the right. Farther on he noticed a branch broken on it. His shoulder bight of carved wood belonged a sprig of brush, all pointing to the left. He turned to the left. A narrow path, that was the way. The brush bight of carved wood were wrongly identified. The boundious were illogically if they thought the brush was dead. The brush talked from morning to night, to morning like an old woman. The booming of the tom-toms on the double convexity of the ilghnas, the bright bight to morning like an phantas, cries misleadingly like the calls of certain birds, the signalling by fires from one height to another, grass laid across the middle of the other ant-hill according to an invariable custom, tufts of wattled twigs, two bits of wood laid crosswise—here language, language, language a language of lights and sound, and silence. CHAPTER VIII How pleasant it was! He must kill Batouata T-O-U- By RENE A Story of the which won th for best Ne from the French and Thomas Seltzer, New A Story of the French Congo which won the Grand Prix for best Novel in 1922 Praised be the brush! They thought it was dead? The brush was alive, very alive, and spoke to its children, but only to its children. It used the space it wanted—smoke, sounds, smells, innate objects—to address the spaces it commanded, the spaces the grass and trees grew and the wild cattle roamed. It used the brush of the brush of the swamp, the brush of the forests and the brush of the plains. Threatening harms. The flicker of a ruffled ear. Two drunken voices. It was Batouina, old mother, and Djouma, the little yellow dog with the very 'pointed ears. Bissibingui had arrived. But how, he was to kill Batouina? Batouina of the chase or by burning in the brush fire? At the moment, however, wasn't it more imperative for him to kill Batouina? In spite of warnings he had fallen, unsuspecting, into the rude tap that Bissibinguin instantly realized how imprudent he had been. Every precaution seemed to have been taken. Here were he and this drunken man, who had trapped me together in a clearing far from the highways; witnesses there were none. But you there were witnesses, two Bissibinguin's "mumma" and Djupina, the little yellow dog. As good as no witnesses, though, they were. A mother, unless she is a most natural mother, never betrays her child. And Djupina was a very good mother, making any revelations. Who in man's memory had ever heard a dog talk? So, keep your eyes on Bissibinguin, my friends, watch close. It not! He seized me. From Bissibinguin, stuck the point of his Ikongo in the ground, and drew but his dagger. His assistant would have to pay dear. He used the food and millet beer his host offered him and pretended not to notice their disappointment. "Macaulde has already stuffed me with potatoes, smoked fish and kene. I don't want any more. Batauuna. You don't want that. It doesn't. It's crammed with things to eat." Doima came and licked his hands. He pet the dog, who was sneezed, wagged his tail, yapped, gnawed playfully at the caressing fingers. He ran a dog like every other dog, that is, a less than nothing. So Bisslighbigh stopped fooling with this less than nothing, and three stones at him while he pondered the Batoula, who was getting drunken every moment, rose to dance a few times, and thought, for all he did was to reel and stagger. His head and limbs were heavy, his eyes red and swollen. He ran around the room, Doima raced round barking. It was great sport for the little dog. "The same accident happened to flipping once upon a time," said Batoula to his feet and bursting into a laugh. "I think I'll tell you the story of what I probably don't know a word of." "At that time, as in our day, the earth with its trush, its forests, its rivers, its elephants, and panthers was cold, and so was the cold. But for the cold, the people would have been happy. It was the one thing they complained about: it took the nimbleness from the earth, and their complaints about the cold were so loud and so long that Ipeu, the moon, finally sent Ipeung, whose other name is Selafoa, to teach the rope. "Pro mute dwelling of the moon down to the earth is a long, long way. So to hasten the coming of Ipeung, Ipeu let him down by a tremendously large rope, the one end. When Ipeung be to tromont on the lengha, but not before, the rope to be pulled up again. From Ipeung men Ipeuow learned that Ipeung could be for dispelling the cold, for warming their bodies, and cooking their food, and lighting up the dark as well. He begged them, and they questioned him about everything that seemed mysterious to them. "For instance, they saw that all living creatures disappeared sooner or later, and that they were suiled their livers. Where were the spirits of these animals who lay down to sleep one day never to rise again? They came to sitning to take their flattering them, putting them in their mouths, unresponsive, silent, motionless. The files creep up their nostrils, their bodies, all turned into a vile creeping monster, so they people are formed. "So the people appalled to the ledge of lilging. But he had no answer to allay their apprehensions, and he went back to his lord and master. "The race of men is troubled. They are in fear of death, and they beseech me to find out from you if they are to the laws that rule the beasts. "So quickly and reasale them, lilging, my good man. I have made them in my image.

"That's what the Yakoma paddie told me." "Your Yakomans are festering by falsehoods. I tell you it's for Billingou, and from no one else the men know fire. It was Billingou who made the earth, and piled up the kagas, and marked the descent of rivers. But it was Ipen who made the first man and the first woman." "I know many more things.

"Do you know that when the men are on the enemy of Lolo, the sun will shine on you?" Well, very, very long ago Lolo who is both a man and a woman, and on good terms with Loju. At the time he had a mamma, and they loved the mammas more than words can tell. "Ipeh's mamma felt too cold, so Lolo's mamma felt too hot. So Lolo took care of her, and Lolo's mamma took care of Lolo's mamma. It was an unlikely exchange. Akora, accustomed to the cold of the heat, and Lolo's mamma was cold of the heat, and all of the forces Lolo to run away at the gathering of duck. "You didn't know this, oh.

A. THREE DELEGATIONS CLASH IN SCHOOL BOARD MEETING Three Delegations Clash At School Board Meeting Saturday, May 23 THREE Three Delega School Boa Defense League Asked To Retire From Board's Con- ference With Federation COLORED HEAD OF ALL SCHOOLS URGED Urban League Sec'ty Sug- gests This Will Solve All School Problems A delegation representing the defense League, and High School Teachers of which Dr. Harry S. McCard is president, was asked to leave when it appeared at a special conference of the Federation of Parent-Teacher Associations and the Board of Schools Commissioners last Thursday evening at 7:30 o'clock. Isaac S. Field, president of the Board, in asking the delegation to retire explained that the session was not in the nature of an open meeting, but a special conference addressed by the Federation to discuss problems affecting the colloid schools. Protest Follows "Do you regard this institution referring to the Federation) to which you have just referred as the only representative to the City of Baltimore or the City of Baltimore or the Board of M. E. Church, asked. "No, but they are the only ones who asked for the meeting." Mr. Field politely replied. Mr. McCard told the Board that the become delegation had to the meeting in a letter from Mr. Roche, secretary of the Board. Mr. Roche explained, however, that his letter had not insured the League delegation to this special meeting but that they would meet at a regular meeting of the Board. Mrs. Wheatley Gallant Mrs. Wheatley, at this point said, "We will retire from this meeting if the opposite delegation wants to be heard tonight." There was a reply to this from the delegation except that they wanted to hear what the Federation was going to discuss. Mr. Fields again explained that the Defense League could not remain and assured them that they would be granted a similar private conference at a future date if so Disturbance Made The majority of the members went out at this point and after another invitation to retire the few remaining, left. Dr. Lyon stating it is most humiliating and uncalled for. A protest conference in front of the Administration Building accompanied by a group of folks creating so much disturbance that President Field was forced to send one to ask them to move away from the building. Federation Proceeds The Federation, with Mrs. Laura J. Wheatley, as president and spokesman, proceeded to present their plans to the Board, Dr. Broadside Mitchell, president of the Baltimore Urban League, read each of the eleven recommendations offered and these were fully discussed by Director of Colored Schools In the recommendation of establishing a status of the director of colored schools, Mrs. Wheatley urged that he have charge of all schools, the elementary schools, the high school and the schools. Members of the Board asked if one man could handle this work. Mrs. Wheatley explained that at present the Federation felt than an efficient person could carry on the work better than it was being carried on now and surely no one can do that in time there would be a director of colored schools with two or more assistants as may be required. "What is the objection to having the same system exist as does now in the white schools?" Mr. Straus asked. The connecting link between the high school and training schools is so close. Mrs. Wheatley explained that a colored man that all these schools would re-define a more effective system than the present. No Assistant Superintendent. "The colored people do not want an assistant superintendent. During the Republican campaign, a faction of colored people made an attempt to have a colored school commissioner. Mrs. Wheatley asked the School Association fought this issue. The colored people realize that line it would not be for their best interest to have an assistant superintendent." Mrs. Marie Baerunschmidt; secretary of the Public School Association made this statement to the board. She said, however, she felt a colored man head of all schools would look more effectively to the best director it was agreed would be responsible to the Superintendent and Board of School Commission- Renalrs On the recommendation of repairs, Mrs. Wheatley urged the door to put into condition buildings in the school. She declared that these were always old, dilapidated ones and should be renovated before the colored chil-occupied them. She also urged prompt prompt, and presented colored school buildings. Delay in Filling Vacancies "We have been unable to understand why it takes so long to fill vacancies in the colored schools" says. "Whenley declared, sitting relationships Schools Nos. 103 and 107 gave five and seven months respectively. Training School now two years with a head. Teachers in these schools were appointed without increase in salaries for increased work and even a letter of appreciation was sent them by the superintendent. "Instead of delaying this recommendation for the Board's action I will ask now if this matter had been brought to the attention of the Superintendent," Mr. Field said. Mrs. Wheatley"replied that she had called Dr. West and talked to him on this matter and he said he did not know the teachers in question had felt the need for satisfaction. She did not get much satisfaction from this interview, she said. Non-Resident Pupils The Delegation Members of the Federation delegation were Mrs. Laura J. Wheatley, president and spokesman; Mrs. Sarah Fernandez, Mrs. Daniel Miller, white, Mrs. Marie O. H. Baureschmidt, white, Dr. Broadmus Mitchell, white, the Rev Charles. S. Briggs, and R. A. H.

Shows 10,000 Members After the conference Mrs. Wheatley showed an APF document of cooperation with 10,000 membership of the Parent and Teachers' Federation and the delegation acted in a representative capacity. President Field Talks President Field said that he regretted the clash. The Broadmus, fed on the present and presentative group in the Federation delegation and would weigh their requests carefully. Man Robs Same House Ten Times After what police say was the tenth visit, Henry William, $20 Boyd St. was arrested Sunday night on a charge of burglarizing 911 Hollis St., owned by George Schaefer. During all the ten visits, William is said to have only gotten $30 in money and jewelry. On several of the visits William is said to have left the gas jets open but unlighted. This was also repeated on the visit Sunday. The hearing in the Western Police Station Monday morning, Williams admitted that he had visited the house six times but denied the other visit. He was formerly employed by Schaefer and was familiar with the lay-out of the house. Because of the seriousness involved in his arrest, that may have caused the death of Schaefer and family, he was held without bail. PROMPTNESS, always being on time, is the key to success.

EPF2 Call VErmon 6017 The Rebohobits, who rose in rebellion against the South African Government, recapitulated, early this month without a shot being fired. It will be recalled that certain differences arise between the Rebohobits and the South African regulations and certain details of administration of their territory, and a British Administrator, proclaiming a view of bringing a settlement about. The Rebohobits are a mounted trio, well armed, and, therefore, the necessary precautions were taken when the territory was with adequate guard, and, in addition, three airplanes were sent to the scene of negotiations. Reproduced from the "Daily News." The people compiling the latest information on the territory which until the war, was German South West Africa, are not natives. They are educated half-casts, many of whom are from the territory. They are, of course, part of the mandated territory of South-West Africa, and are therefore under the supervision of the League of Na The story of these people is one of the romances of South Africa. In the middle of the nineteenth century they decided to learn African languages and move away into some distant land. The trek which began in 1871, numbered several thousands, and occupied between one and two years. These people united in South West Africa, which was at that time "No Man's Land." It is approximately the size of France, but its total population—white, native and half-caste—is only about 400,000. A journey arrived at Rehoboth, these remarkable people built their city with a Parliament house, created their own Parliament, passed laws, and formed a Statue book. They drew up a constitution upon appointment of the local Volksrand. When Germany proclaimed a protectorate over South-West Africa the Rehoboth insisted that they were British subjects, and appealed to the British Government through Commissioner Palgrave to take them under British protection, but this was refused. They therepont extracted from the German Government in 1885 a treaty of protection which recognized their sovereignty and left them complete self-government, which they enjoyed until the war broke out. In 1814, after the war had been in progress nearly 2 years, the Rehoboths "republic" declared war on Germany and fought some remarkable battles. The occasion of the outbreak of hostilities is interesting. The German general in South-West Africa had captured some British subjects belonging to General Botha, and insisted on "quarrying" them on the Rehoboth people. Parliament was summoned, and, in spite of it being pointed out that it might lead to war, they unanimously voted that they could not accept responsibility.

Van Wyk, who was the President of the "republic." They also killed his aunt, who was 70 years old, besides one of two children in arms, and burned the houses of the principal farmers of Rehoboth. The Rehoboth troops, numbering about 2,000, won a victory over the Germans and captured a good deal of material, but by reinforcements the unhappy Rehoboths were driven from their town into the hills. There they maintained a defensive war for several days, and, their ammunition being exhausted, were actually on the point of being completely annihilated by the German troops when the German general received information that General McKenzie was marching on Gibson, with the result that he withdraw immediately from the fight with the Rehoboths and directed his force against General McKenzie. The trouble in South-West Africa is solely a question of independence, the Relibothba believed, of the Nile, and of the seame Nation as they do, all the independent rights granted to them by the Kisner, the independent treaty, would be preserved, but in order to make no mistake they decided at the end of the war to ask to come directly under the personal sovereignty of King Distrusted Banks He's Bankrupt Griffin, Gail,—P.

The audience enduring the candidacy of Senator Arthur Whitney for governor of New Jersey was introduced after the speech he delivered. The audience was unanimously adopted with audible mums throughout the vast audience. The resolution to give the support on the joint appropriations committee in the building of the great Born-ontown White House was the great support on his personal encouragement and interest in the success of Principal Valentine. Two days later in Trenton, Bishop P. A. Wallace praised Senator Whitney as a man who was tested and his stand for fair and liberal consideration for the people, who needed the records of the New Jersey Senate. A resolution was passed urging the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church to elect on June 16th a Rosewood, N.C., pastor as governor of New Jersey and sainn prove themselves their friend in public life. Several ministers who had appalled Senator Whitney in making consideration for the colored people from time to time while he was a member of the State asked for permission to state before the conference that had been always given them at the hand of Senator Whitney. Morrison, the Senator's home town, testified that there was not a citizen of the State who had Arthur Whitney and in驶ing him governor of the State of New Jersey the citizen would have a generous friend and a big brother who would help them in their troubles.

BOARD "The Sun Do Move The Earth Am Flat" John Jasper, The Unmatched Philosopher And Preacher, Who Lived In Richmond 40 Years Before The War, And 40 Years After It It is worth while to hear in mind that he began to preach in 1839 and that was 25 years before the coming of freedom. For a quarter of a century, therefore, he was a preached while yet a saint. His preaching was longed to his master, and under the laws of the period, he could preach only under very serious limitations. He could go only when his master said he might, and he could preach only when some white minister or committee were present to see that they were conducted in an orderly way. This is the hard way of stating the case, but there are many ways of getting around such regulations. The man who could preach, though a Negro, rarely failed of an opportunity for this work bad friends who enabled him to "shy around" his limitations. There was one thing which the Negro greatly insisted upon, and which not even the most hard-hearted masters were quite willing to allow, because that their dead should be put away without a funeral. Not that they expected, at the time of the burial, to have the funeral service. Indeed they did not desire it, and it was never according to their notions. A funeral to them was a purgation. It was a long time ahead. It was to be marked by the gathering of the kindred and friends from far and wide. It was not satisfactory unless there was a vast excitable crowd. It usually meant an all-day meeting, and often a meeting in the house, and an ablue alike, sometimes almost in equal numbers. Another demand in the case—for the slaves knew how to make their demands,—was that the Negro preacher "should preach the funeral," as they called it. In things like this, the slave was generally prevailed. The funeral "loomed up weeks in advance, and although marked by sable garments, mournful manners and sorrowful outcries, it had about it hints of an elaborate social function with festive accomplishments, the slave was skated on the frame of the officiating brother. He must be one of their own color, and a man of reputation. They must have a man to plow up their emo- Grace Presbyterian Rev. J. T. Colbo At 11 A. M., Sunday, Men's Day, the Choir. At 8 P.

These demonstrations were their tribute to their dead and were expected to be fully asquate to do honor to the family. Jasper's Fame It was in this way that Jasper's fame began. At first, his tempestuout, ungrammatical eloquence was restricted to Richmond, and there it was hedged in with many humbly limitations. But gradually the news concerning this fiery and thrilling orator sifted itself into the country, and many invitations came to oblige at country funerals. He was preeminently a funeral preached. A Negro funeral without an uproal, without shouts and groans, without fainting women and shouting men, without pictures of triumphant deathbeds and the judgment day, and without the subjects of the funeral dressed in white and rejoicing around the throne of the Lamb, was no funeral at all. Jasper was a master from the outset at this work. One of his favorite texts, as a young preacher, was recorded in Revelations 6:23: "And I saw and beheld a white horse, and he that sat upon him, and he went forth conquering and to conquer." Before the torrent of florid and spectacle that the people of the river swept down to the river, and sometimes for hours many seemed to be in trances, not a few living as if they were dead.

For God shall bring every work into alignment with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil." Eccl. 12: 13-14. Because of the depth of God's nature and our inability to understand Him, we are sometimes led to believe that He is ignorant of what transpires. Every man has some things in life that he would rather not have exposed, but there is no escape. The world judges by appearances. The unfortunate man is despised. Unpropossessing features receive instant condemnation. God, alone, sees the heart. Some people go to church and bow in prayer, with their minds on nothing but their neighbors' appearance and with a selfish desire to excel them in financial independence. They wear their souls and bodies out in the street. The keep back and offer God the residue. It is a trevessy, rank and inforgivable. Do your whole duty.

Pickens WHITES MORE GUILTY OF RACE MIXING riage Of Races John Powell, white, of Virginia, who writes heroically in The Daily Press of Newport News, is a little late, in his efforts to preserve "racial integrity," for a race which is as mixed as the Anglo-Saxon race is in general, and the white southern end of it in particular. The so-called Anglo-Saxon (a hypermaned name in itself) consists of hermaned, Old Brittonic, Romans, Romans of the empire, an implication of dark western Asia, and still darker north Africa), and of about everything else that is human. There is hardly a strain of blood that has not inspired this Anglo-Saxon. Plain West African But the southerner of the United States has, in addition to all this misregulation, an inextricable infusion of blood between two and three million mutatees, mostly in the South, today, besides the other "lost tribe" of one million people, who become blood parts of the white race in order to escape being oppressed by the white race. Strange to relate the very monumental white race to the black has caused the proud white to receive a large infiltration of blood black. Much of the Negro blood that runs in the veins of proud white Southerners to the north has been treated as an equal human being and had therefore found it of no consequence to "pass" for white when he happened to be seven-eightles white. Mar Do Some Good And still at this late date, Powell may do some good and may delay amalgamation a little if only he and I can get the right point: TO PREVENT SOUTHERN WHITE MEN FROM MAKING ANY MORE MULATOES. Strict laws to prevent colorado would do a damage to the law to a law that prevented colored people in Virginia from marrying white people, and especially to prevent colored men from marrying white women, and to prevent the thing that does not happen, or which is so rare as to be absolutely negligible. But the intrusion of white males into the Negro race is occurring every minute in Virginia, and every day in Newport News. Prominent White And, remember, it is the prominent white man, of the club-forming and law-making class, that has done, and is still doing, that they are always crying out. Let me ask Mr. Powell and the editor of The Press some questions, which may start even them to thinking. The blood that has been forced over from the white South into the black (once black) South, has come from the very "best" class of the whites: from governors, editors, and other artisans? Two Great Virginians Do you know that the two greatest white men that Virginia ever produced (and which you would, perhaps, call the two greatest white men that Virginia ever produced) both had colored children? Would you also like to have, me to have, to teach you to greet the president of the nation Teddy Roosevelt (the president of the nation), who now live in Alabama and are "niggers" in your vocabulary? But you would like to learn to "pure" in preface that it may lynch both you and me if we actually go together, to the home of Negroes, even though the Negroes happen to be the president of the United States. I will prefer, any day you name, to conduct either or both of you on your behalf as the daughter of the little grandchildren of your former great President of the Confederate States of America, all of whom are African-American. Producing Mulattocs Do you know that the States that have the fiercest laws to prevent intermarriage of black and white, are producing mulattoes and colored populations? And do you know why? It is because such a law favors the mulatto-producers—the white man—by giving colored girls seduced. Why is a free public license issued to the males of the stronger and more numerous race. And now can you guess, why intelligent men are ALWATS and always will be opposed to such laws? Because they regard the white legislators who are growing enthusiastic over some of the more discriminatory statutory immunity for themselves and their kind, who are the only authors of interracial bastardy. To Compel Marriage Do you not see that a law to COMPEL WHITE MEN when a colored man is married to a colored woman and to legitimize the child—that such a law would break up more miscegation in one month than a law FORBIDDING MARRIAGE could break up in a hundred years? The law forbidding marriage makes it easy, and is responsible for the fact that a married man is lost at least a hundred years before you started the fight. An "inferior race" promotes miscegation; for it opens the door to the males of the advantaged race. How to Resistance That is not only plain reason, but is also the history of our three hundred years together in this land. You may write all the sham laws you please, but so long as you make the females of a weaker people helpless before you, you should prove that follow are the operation of the law of gravitation. How amalgamation can be preventable, and how it yet been prevented. But I do know that the only way on God's earth to SLOW IT UP and let it be decent while it goes, is to make the races that entreat each other of absolutely equal status. Condition Of Equality In such a condition of equality it is conceivable that the proper EDUCA-tion should be made tard, and if it be preventable, might even prevent amalgamation. But it would take a brave white man to prove the truth of that TRUTH in the South. STEAM ROLLER OILED AT MASS MEETING Defense League Mass Meeting Tuesday Night Quickly Muzzles Speakers THREE ARE RULED "OUT OF ORDER" Adjournment Hastily Order- "Doxology, doxology, Use all the doors We're all leaving now." Bert Williams A well oiled steamed roiler worked overtime at Bethel Church. Tuesday night at the Mass Meeting of the Defense League. Despite the fact that the President Dr. Harry McCard, asked for comment from the audience, Dr. B. M. Whetta, Dr. Edward J. Wheatley, and Mrs. Laura J. Wheatley, president of the Federation of Parentheses were ruled out of order when they attempted to speak. Objections by W. Ashleigh Hawkins were sustained and when the speakers protested the chairs riling, the meeting was quickly adjourned. The delegation to the mass meeting was not authorized by the executive committee of the Defense League when he was ruler out of order. Members of the executive committee admitted they had not met since last year, when the league was founded and had authorized the delegation to the school board or the mass meeting. Mrs. George W. F. McMechan, a member of the League's executive committee, designated its membership as around 50. Equalization of the salaries of the teachers of the Douglass high school and the salaries of the assistant superintendent of schools to have charge of the colored schools of this city were the main issue. He withdrew the bill and a public mass meeting at Bethel A. M. E. Church Tuesday night. Dr. H. S. McCard, presided. He told the audience Defense League had been rejected at the instance of the president of the Federation of Parent-Teacher Clubs, Mrs. Eleanor H. McCard, meeting held with the School Board last Thursday evening. He also stated that the committee held the meeting to protested the chair's ruling, the salaries. He pointed out that the difference in salary between the teachers of the Douglass high school and the Douglass high school is $400 a year; between the vice principals, $750; between the heads of the departments in the City College and the Douglass high school $1,000. Dr. Lyons Speaks The chairman then introduced Dr. Ernest Lyons who also flayed the Parent-Teacher Federation for not being in contact with the Board in the presence of the League. "I am in favor of colored assistant superintendent of public schools and I have been a great people of Baltimore had passed the stage where they needed an advocate to help them get what they want. In this statement, I have been a representative of the Public School Association, who was a member of the Federation committee. However, that statement and that a committee of the Defense League had gone before the Board of Estimates and that the president of that Board stated, "We stand for one yard stick by one yard stick." There is to no distinction of race or sex." Flays Mrs. Wheatley Attorney Wm. C, McCard said that many persons of the white race be backward race. While he does not believe so personally, he stated that this was all the more reason they should have the best teachers. Urges Cooperation Mrs. Jane Frye in a short but competent club, cooperate. She cited the example the cooperation always given the tant-Toncher Clubs back in the 80s. Bethel Impartial The Rev. Dr. Stepteau explained to the audience, that Bethel Church doors were always open to anyone for meetings to benefit the race whether, educationally, or religiously he said the Federation had held its mass meeting there Sunday, May 9th, the Defense League was then present and that Mrs. Marie Baurenschmidt would speak there Sunday. May 24th under the auspices of the N. A. A. C. P. He recommended that the groups get together and recommend two or three persons to head the city schools and then let the Board decide which of these should be appointed. A Attorney Councilman Speaks Attorney William Fitzgerald, former city councilman from the 17th Ward, also urged an assistant superintendent of schools. He declared Mrs. Baurenschmidt was not in favor of equilizing the salaries of colored teachers in the high school and that she had told so last week. A motion made by Dr. Lyon that the President of the Defense League ask the School Board for a conference, was adopted.

Business and Industry A Weekly Review Of Labor and Business Conducted by William N. Jones BALTIMORE LEADS IN COLORED RESIDENTS COTTON GARMENTS IMPROVE W A R D More Than $30,000,000 In Cotton Products Made Here Of the 20,000 men and women employed in the cotton garment industries in Baltimore, more than 1,000 are members of the race. Baltimore is one of the world's leading centers for the cotton garments above the value of the output reaches the enormous total of more than $30,000,000. Factories here turn out pajamas, shirts, reversals, middles, underwear, ladies' waists, shirts, rompers, children's dresses and various kinds of boys' apparel. Several of the nation's best known brands in underwear, holiday blouses are made in Baltimore. Not only are colored people employed in a large number of the garment making' establishments but there are a number of small factoriers, members and individuals of the race. Radio Expert Gets Honolula A. Hoyt Taylor, Superintendent of Radio at the Naval Research Laboratory, Washington, and the Baltimore radio expert, that the department had received a report, from him on NRRLs. Hoyt's report was that he had "caught" signals sent out from the U. S. S. Seattle which was in Honolulu (approximate distance of 124 km) and waited at 12:45. The length of wave used in the experiment was 40 meters. The experimental set sending the signal was short and short length waves the same as McFillan will use on his dash at the pole. The wave verified by their log that the vessel was at the place reported by the local radio man. There is a growing belief that short waves can be efficient and thus supplant the longer ones now in use for many purposes. Carrington says that he has also caught signals from Juneau, Haitian Rubber (Columbia Press Bureau) Washington, D. C. It may not be obvious, but we have to depend, chiefly upon far-Java for rubber tires. The Bureau of Standards has just received 25 pounds of smoked sheet rubber, which the Agriculture Department has been operating in Haiti. The shipment is to be tested in a variety of ways, over a long period of time. The Haitian trees will do the work which is now performed by the products of the islands of the Indian Ocean and Amazon. The Haitian trees will be further north of the Equator than any other-spot upon which rubber cultivation has been attempted previously and the rubber trees are of a different species in the East Indian gardens.

FLIMFLAMMERS GET 90 DAY TERMS John Hawkins, age 28, and William Rice, age 30 were sentenced to 90 days each in the city jail and ordered to leave town on their release for operating the drop pocket book game here. The men were arrested on April 18, after they were alleged to have received the sum of $37 from Mrs. Annie Harcum. They were apprehended while waiting for the return of Mrs. Bessie Nickler, she was gat on her time on her way from the Bank with $40 in money to help effect a division of the money that was supposed to be in the pocket book that Mrs. Hawkins pretended to find, as she was passing.

They had been watched by officers when they stopped Mrs. Mickler and were arrested when she returned to the There were some other mistakes made too. One cloppee mistook a bareback rider for his wife. This was a perfectly natural mistake because women wear such short dresses nowadays you can't tell the difference. Mother-Son Social Of course this wasn't half as bad as as the two animal trainers who chased a man five miles before they realized that he wasn't one of the animals.

Heard and Seen In Baltimore Ralph Matthews Monday morning we loped into the office thinking a lot of mean things about the guy who invented work and the dish it. The City Editor had received a hunch that something was doing in town and he wanted us to chase it down. We joined in a crowd of rubbernecks and were carried to the circus ground, gave him a glove in a side show to look at the funny people. After looking over we couldn't see why they didn't save the money and just look at each other. A little boy bought a bag of peanuts to feed to the elephant and fed them to his father by mistake. This wasn't the boy's fault though, because the old man was so fat he made the circus fat man look like he was fat that the ticket made him buy two tickets.

Anyone is eligible who can pass the examination and those standing highest on the list are appointe- d. To the Editor: The following editorial was printed in the Charlotte (N. C.) Observer and reprinted in the Winston-Salem Journal. Is Mencken correct? The Color Line (Charlotte Observer) To discriminate against all members of a race because of the color of its skin, without regard to the qualities of its heart or mind, is necessarily cruel. Every race has produced its own great men, and many of these have sprung from the loins of medio-For one to presume that all colored men are inferior because of the dark tint of their skin has necessitated in the hollof that all white men are honorable and upright and superior. Racial discrimination just now is being subjected to a somewhat general discussion because of the irritation of the colored women at the International Council of Women in Washington. The colored group suddenly found themselves segregated in the auditorium for the session. Often there is a better discrimination within the ranks of a race against its own members. H. L. Mencken, editor of The American Mercury, in New York, but a resident of Baskerville, some distinction of this intra-racial discrimination. In the Mencken home in Baskerville, Suddenly the family discovered that the "hired girl" was a skilled musician and otherwise a young woman of wide culture. When she asked as to the reasons for the goddes manner in which she was earning a livelihood, though quaint, she higher degree life she explained that she had been teaching in the colored schools in Baltimore. Later it was established custom that only teachers of a certain tint would be employed. "The muld in the Mencken home was so dark she fell below the 'color line.'" Here's a Little Verse Dedicated to the AFRO Dear Editor: I and family wish to extend our greetings to the Afro-American. We would add that we always find a welcome in our home. May happiness be ever thine, And peace thy steps attend. Accept this tribute of respect. From one who is your friend. Edward E. Jackson, New Windsor, Md. 0 Some Pertinent reasons why the Student Strike at Howard was a piece of bad Business. Dear Editor: Apropos to the Student Strike at Haworth University, there are some facts that come out in favor of those who do not favor the strike. Along with the students who do not favor the strike there will be many per- ents who have toiled and slaved to help complete the education of the children only to find that some of them will be denied graduation this year because of the time lost during this strike. In deepest sympathy with the "Go to High School!" "Go to College!" drive this week in Baltimore, it would be quite consistent that we should get all out of college or a high school that the college or high school gives and surely a strike of the students is not calculated to get the greatest return for one's money and effort. The tuition for the last quarter of this school year has already been paid and the students are cheating themselves out of college and the students have already paid for, which course is not good business. The members of the senior class, who are involved in the strike, stand to lose their chance of graduating this year, necessitating another year in some school of equal standing, with the possibility that the school might be held up when it is found that they were involved in a student strike. So it appears that the very thing that the drive "Go to High School!—Go to College!" is supposed to stimulate is being given a black-eye by the students of a college who appear to be more toughened by mock heroes than by the real desire to acquire finish and learning in these places of higher learning.

CONVICTED YOUTH,16, PREFERS DEATH TO LIFE TERM Speed to call on~Always AMOCO-GAS The American Oil Co. Page Twenty CONVIC YOUTH, 16, PREFERS DEATH TO PEN TERM Would Rather Be Hanged Than Go To Prison For Life POOL ROOMS CAUSE OF MANY TRAGEDIES Testimony Shows them Breeding Places For Crime And Vice "I'd rather be hanged than go to prison for life," was the comment made last Friday by William Rice, 16-year-old boy, as he was being led out of Criminal Court to begin a life sentence in the Maryland Penitentiary for murder. Guilty of murder in the first degree without capital punishment was the verdict which sealed the doom of Rice and his uncle, Edward Turner, 554 A. Bruce Street. The murder was the culmination of a tragedy in which William J. Johns, 1505 A. Mount street, was done to death by the two men following a saloona brave on February 27th. A Revenge Killing The killing was the outcome of an altercation which had occurred in the saloon earlier, in the evening following which the two men returned and without warning shot and beat Jones to death. According to the testimony, William Rice, who is a bestless youth who gave the appearance more of a high school student than that of a criminal, engaged in a quarrell with Johns, some tickets for an entertainment as they played pool in a pool room in the corner of Mount Pleasant streets. Returned With Uncle There was a short scuffle and Rice left the place returning after a short time with Turner, his uncle. When the men entered the saloon Johns. Nice pointed his antagonist out and immediately Turner raised his revolver which he was already holding and began firing. Johns fled behind the barman Turner followed him and stalled on the rail against the crouching man, the crumpled, fatally injured upon the floor. Broke Milk Bottles By this time young Rice had secured milk bottles and rushing up to the wounded man, John, whose John died before reaching Colonial Hospital. Deputy State's Attorney Moses and his assistant after outlining the incidents in the case to the Jury, asked the verdict of murder in the degree. Many Saloon Flights In the course of the testimony, a xivid picture was painted of the many crime-breeding places dotted over the city where youths are allowed to congregate playing pool and buying illicit whiskey. This is the second murder within a year at this pool room. STRECK BY TRUCK Brooks Matthews, 3, 1865 North Calhoun street, was struck by a truck near his home last Thursday. When taken to the hospital it was found that he had received a contusion of the left eye and other bruises about the eye. The operation operated by Wilson Myers, 116 Rockwood avenue and was the property of the Premier Dry Cleaning company. BOY STRUCK BY AUTO Jordan Clifton, age 6, 1426 Argyle avenue, received minor injuries last Thursday when he was struck by an auto while attempting to cross the street in the 1300 block on Freemont avenue. He was given first aid treatment at the Colonial Hospital. --- Mary Catherine Fates, age 4, 32 East St., was struck by an automobile while attempting to cross the street near her home.

"I was approached 137 Madison avenue, approached his home Friday night and found Harris trying to enter by means of a jimmy, he called the policeman and caused the latter's arrest. A charge of house-breakfast was entered and the trio faced His Johnson—Judge. I caught this man in the act of breaking into my home. I came home a little later than usual and came upon him before he knew it. The Judge—What do you know about it, Mrs Johnson?" Mrs. Ethel Johnson—Judge. I did hear someone trying to unlock the door and was standing there waiting to catch them when they got inside. Mrs. Johnson said the light is the light, and I am going to tell the truth about this thing. Mrs. Johnson told me to come up there, but I got there an hour late and when I knocked she did not answer and I was just trying the knot when her husband came in.
