LOUIS FOR MARRYING Former Baltimore Music Supervisor Forced Out Of Schools There WED IN JANUARY, VISITED SINGLE GIRL Principal Characterized Him As Dangerous And Not Fit To Teach St. Louis, Mo. (Special to the St. Louis Argus and Afro-American.) Ulysses Chambers, musical director of Sumner Hi School, resigned his position on, or about May 12. His resignation was asked for by Supt.

It became general knowledge about a New Store, that Chambers was married to one Gladys Spillers, on January 20th, Bakersville, IL., by a justice of the peace. Few people in St. Louis knew of the marriage. Miss Spillers was a teacher in the public school at Alton, IL., at the time she was married to Chambers.

More For White Sec-Treas. Exposed Call VErnon 6016 Fourth of a series of Articles by Alumnus on Durkeism and Howard University. After three months' incumbency, Dr. Durke was ready to turn the college upside down. He asked the college faculty for permission to nephew the professor of study. The permission was voted, and the faculty awaited daily for the announcement of the committee. Professors of ripe judgment felt that such a reorganization into the enterprise of at least a year. To the utter management of the faculty, Dr. Durke never appointed his committee to the board of Trustees, without faculty consultation or sanction, his romantic scheme of reorganizing the work of the college. When the scheme were published the professor were dumbfounded. First Disrespect This marks Dr. Durkee's first nefarious act of disrespect for the college faculty. From that succession he has been to ignores the faculty and pull the wool over the eyes of the trustees. Whatever he wants done relative to the faculty's judgment, he has enacted by the trustees. It was this policy that really led to the strike of recent date when the faculty, in the years requirement in physical education, this scheme has been one of Dr. Durkee's hobbies. It was forced on the faculty by legislation of the Biscets College but to revert to his "college reorganization." At the time of his big reform plan, he accustomed standards of American Colleges, Dr. Durkee, however, decided to bisect the college into junior and senior colleges. The senior unit was further divided into a number of constituent schools. The plan of administration was growing hot under their collars. They felt that the faculty of any republican in matters purely pedagogical. Moreover, they felt the responsibility to help the students' youth, then a white professor dropped the proposed change in the college before the recommendation went to the department. College Worthless To make matters worse, the president called a meeting to test the assertion that he considered the college "worthless," the underscoreers "unprofessional" and the meeting adjourned abruptly that the president might "attempt" to reopen the college. The colored professors were confused and indignant. It was quite apparent that the president was talking about the scheme which he had recommended. His own have concern, and he was rumored that two white professors, reputed as being inimical to college students, had a hand in working out the scheme. Professors Consult The colored professors felt it their duty to consult the president further. Professors Baudt, Cook, Davis, Houston, Just, Lightfoot, Miller, Scurlock, Tunnell, and Williams requested a conference with Dr. Durkee on the matter of the "worthlessness" of the college work. A bitter, but pathetic meeting ensued. Dr. Durkee withdrew his estimate of the college work. He was put through a veritable "third degree" examination on his reorganization scheme, from about 4 o'clock in the afternoon until 7 in the evening. He could not explain the slightest detail about it. In his blustering manner, he tried to fake a knowledge of organizations of other colleges, but failed dismally. He did not even know how the college from which he graduated was organized. Finally, Wilted He finally wilted, and expressed a willingness to recommend a modification to the institution recommending a centralized college which seemed to appeal to all. He also tried to trap the rep. They realized that the Board of Trustees had made the plan legal, so they were not ambitions to sign any new charter, but birth to a charge of inassubordination. This memorable meeting made a shard of his mind to color professors. A peace-loving member of the Board of Trustees, or a professor, brought the president and his indignant professors into harmony, but matters these professors had Durkee black-listed these professors. The Agency of Gossip He encouraged the faculty to win preferment through the university, and he encouraged Hunter for idle, loose goals became the president's closest friend, because he was one of the one lot of influence through his unsavory industry. Dr. Durks said that he was "very nervous" about eyes. "They were filled to their limit. A fact that deserves more than passivity is that he was a stormy session with all of the colored professors. Professors Cook, Houseman, and others are among those who have battled valiantly with Howard's $10,000 president. He was very comfortable in the presence of colored men of convictions. He has done all in his power to outsmart our outs out of the university. With the he is still running wild. University Black List Just to give the reader an example of the writer will take the case of Professor Scurlock, one of Howard's own professor Scurlock and a subordinate in his department. The president championed the reader will recall that Professor Scurlock was one of the 10 professors. The president board of Trustees the unprecedented rule of permitting each department to elect a professor was only one full professor. By this rule, an instructor might be elective, the president gave no reason for the change. He merely wanted to humiliate the president in particular and possibly a few others. Associate Made Head It so happened that there were only three in Professor Scurick's department, and he was the instructor voted to make the associate head of the department. In the same way, Professor Miller was voted to be the department mathematics. The president accepted the verdict and commended the rule, and the action was taken in the spring of 1919. When, however, Professor Houston resigned before the rule was a year old, Professor Gregory was regularly elected as head of the department. Durkee fully refused to accept the result of the election, and recommended February that the head be abroken, the department recommending the Trustees abrogated the rule. And why not? It had done its dastardly work. Board Has Confidence Dr. Durkee asked the concept of what the duties of a pres- The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly ident should be. He knows that his board has unfailing confidence in him, and he is very likely to be passed without a whisper. He also lies the danger at any professor's career at Howard. No matter what the professor's career at Howard or Dr. Dirkke's word goes, individually trustees may sympathize with an offended professor, or vice versa. Dr. Dirkke's recommendation. A more sensitive and careful board will hard to find. Another glaring example of his vindictive-ness will indicate how offended he is, namely—may, to hold offed professors. Cook is Punished As has already been pointed out, Professor George Cook was slated for punishment. As soon as Dr. Durke entered upon his presidency, he asked Professor Cook to accept demotion as secretary of the university. Naturally, Professor Cook was reluctant to give up a position in which he had covered himself with glory. Two, or three colored members of the Board of Trustees made a feeble effort in Professor Cook's behalf, but finally succumbed to the "big stick." The beloved and efficient secretary was strut-tracked into one of the new deanships, apparently created to catch humiliated officers. But, listen! Dr. Durke's intention was to all the secretary-treasurership with a white man from the West. His candidate actually visited Howard, with the expectation of the appointment. It was Dr. Durke's idea to level all the colored men by placing them all into the grade of professor and to turn the higher administrative positions over to the other race. Trustee Balks Plan A white trustee, who sized up the situation, made it plain that if an efficient colored man was to be replaced, he must be by another efficient colored man. Dr. Durkee, therefore, is to have no credit whatever for bringing to Bowarde the present able, unfiring, and progressive incumbent. But more of the Cook treatment. Because Professor Cook did not manifest an enthusiasm for his own demotion and because he naturally hesitated between accepting humiliation, or having it shoved on him, he was accused of "double-crossing." The Board of Trustees sustained Dr. Durkee, who has ever since hounded Professor Cook, one of Howard's most distinguished sons and faithful servants. Cook Ousted With his wished eloquence, Dr. Durkee finally convinced the Board that he was the president, and that pus was urgently needed for the expanding membership of Mine Hall. The president was shelved, but finally the president's eloquent appeal prevailed. The Coolo's eloquent appeal was to alleviate dormitory conditions, so the writer will not make any new students. He also made business. He merely asks that any disinterested alumnus of Howard University be brought in and see for herself how many female students are being housed there. In the local alumnus do this and report the result. Dr. Durkee did not need that pus, but he did, why did, why has he not, in two years' time, formed one half-one dozen students. No Need For Action It was a brutal shame to drive Proof of Conduct when he was virtually but not minded. He was no need for such action and the loss of Mrs. Cook's culture to those who were compensated by any artificial intelligence. Surely, the president's wife takes no interest in the those who are barred. The great joy that Dr. Durkee received from his successor Cook is by no means comparable to the much greater loss that the young man had from their midst the very type of womanhood that they would do well to give up. Is there no shock that can move the Board of Trustees? Our article next calls for nine deans or supervisors officer, colored professors were alert to scent the ultimate object of this scheme, which was to destroy the college work. They knew that there was a temptation to remit on the port of a certain local influence to injure the college. No matter at college work. He battled at college work, though that Dr. Durkee was intentionally hitting at the college work, for no one ever gave him credit for working out his deceptive scheme, or suspecting tool of this hostile influence. In his desire to appear original, he had fallen upon the officers of those who had their oppor-tunity to crush the A. B. course at Howard. This horizontal division of the college, under Dr. Durkee's scheme, ensured the college spirit of both faculty and student body, and virtually reduces the college to the first two years. He entering freshmen derives his inspiration from the continuity of the college life as a whoa. This fragmentary division of the upper tier of college course dissipates the orthodox, which is so essential to the embodiment of a college man or woman. One Continuous Management Team manages college places the students under one continuous pedagogical management and conducts their work through Howard University is not in a position to make an experiment which no other university has featured. Thus the University of Chicago which furnishes the most notable example of the so called junior and senior colleges is vested in one pedagogical head. The same plan of government prevails at the University of California, these institutions have usually worked with the other colleges in order to adopt these independent management of the lower and upper tiers of classes if such had been found Radical Departure Howard University is the outstanding college of the Negro race. Dr. Durkee considers place this institution in a party with the best American colleges. Dr. Durkee's radical departure from the approved methods and stand-alone colleges practically destroys this institution. No sooner had Dr. Durkee put his fanciful scheme through the Board of Trustees than he requested Dean Daniel B. McCormick, the which he wished to preside. To the president's disappointment, Dean Miller selected the Junior College to select, and select the School of Liberal Arts. Miller's Widest Influence In the Junior College, Dean Miller has the entire freshman and sophomore student body. After the students leave him, they divide into several senior schools—Liberal Arts, Education, Commerce and Finance, Science, and Business, wide and wide influence of all the deans. Dr. Durkee tried his hardest to jolly Dean Miller into taking the School of Liberal Arts; and failing this, let the out of the brag. He realised that he was not the reason for bigging the college Dr. J. Hayden Johnson Is Colored Member Whose Term Has Expired SOUTHEAST SECTION ASKS REPRESENTATIVES Feeling Is That Members Must Not Be Too Progressive sive (Afro Bureau) Washington, D. C.—The annual灯 for three vacancies on the Board of Education for the District of Columbia, which occur June 30, has begun. The judges of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia are being deluged with letters in regard to filling these vacancies, some requesting the reappointment of the three members of the Board, and others endorsing candidates to succeed them. The Terms Expire The three members, whose terms expire June 30, next, are: Dr. J. L. Hogg, the Chairman; Dr. J. Poosey, white, and Mrs. Marie W. Hodgkins, white. Although they have served three years, during which time they have been marked by bickering, they are socking reappointment. Major West A. Hamilton, the head of the Hamilton brothers' Printing House, has made his appearance in the open to succeed Dr. J. Hayden Johnson, the colored member of the Board whose Southeast Active The residents of southeast Washington have submitted a request that the successor to Dr. Johnson be appointed from that section. They named no particular person, but it is generally presumed that if it appears likely that the judges will give serious consideration to their request they will support John H. Wilson, a practicing attorney, who lives in that section and is active in parent-teacher affairs. The school board row between the radical and conservative members of the board, however, gives Dr. Johnson a fair chance for reappointment. He has voted consistently with the conservative faction in support of James T. Lloyd, the president of the board, and Superintendent Frank W. Ballou. Wm. L. Houston The failure of the judges to reappoint the term expired is generally construed as the first step toward getting rid of the progressive members. There are two remaining, unlawful members: P. Jesse Greenwood, Bath Mrs. Coralie F. Cook and the Rev. F. Persent are allied with the conservatives. The judges of the District Supreme Court have agreed upon when regard to the wishes of the people and it is possible that they will go beyond the range of candidates and select persons to those vacancies whose names were never submitted to them.

Call VErnon 6017 Searchlight Says Howard Prexy Should Resign By Scarchlight The school year about to close has been one of the most unusual in Negro education. Our outstretched students have witnessed a stubborn rebellion against intolerable conditions. These momentous conflicts, robbed of parishian bigotry and malice, represent the colliding forces of overbearing domination and youthful self-expressions. We saw the blow aimed at law and order. These youthful reformers tried to make their respective institutions understand the value of their fair support any great university. Raised Money In the conflict at Fisk, we behold a president who loses all notion of the attributes of his greatness, his greatness of his integrity, his magnificent endowment fund and the consequent risk of losing much of this money, through his resignation, he is conflicted at Howard, we behold a much weaker president, a much weaker president, who has kept both faculty and students in touch with the rest of the department as reported at Howard. Unlike the president as Fisk, he has not been active in raising money, so that his resignation will not spell a similar end. The Fisk matter is all settled. Eyes are now on Howard. In a few days the trustees of the university are seeking a serious problem of their existence. Though they are self-creating and self-perpetuating, they must pay some respect to the people they serve. That the president incumbent's administration has been lamentably weak, is a complete fact precisely generally accepted, the trustees of the university him, and fortunately, embraced almost every opportunity to make a serious mistake. Such opportunities are not experienced person on the job. Crisis At Hand The crisis is at hand. The intolerable conditions at Howard cannot prolong, nor can they inevitably. Among the faculty and students must go, or the president must go. There is no hard medium. The effect of this entanglement is of no material importance just now. The fact is that these discourses are not for the accomplishment of the sole aim for which Howard University was founded. The trend of sentimentally with the faculty, overwhollying with the faculty. Muster His Followers Of course, the president will must his followers; but it will be interesting to note who they are to be ledged friends or foes of the Negro's cause. We do know, however, that Mr. Oswald Garrison Villard, one of the Negro's foremost friends, has referred to Howard's presidency in a manner in a manner to prick the President's conscience, if he has one. The president can, make the labor of the trustees less arduous, by reaffirming the president at Flask followed. It really is the proper course under existing conditions. Even if the president's integrity is unquestionable, he has consciously or unconsciously enlisted with Negro-haters. Wrote Out Resignation The minute he accepted the presidency of a school that does not adhere to its designation from Howard University. He slapped the Negro squarely in the face of the activated resignation of Negro-holder Howard to mitigate this offense. Every self-respecting Negro in this country should be the president of Hosford, designate. Press Awalts World It is true that the trustees gave the president permission to head a school that is closed to Negroes, they too, especially the colored ones, are a pooring by an indigestent race. The press is awaiting an explanation by the trustees. To give the president of a colored university permission to preside over one of its classes, it is an indemnsement of racial prejudice and a gross insult to colored people. Every colored member of the Howard Trustee Board has thus placed himself on a record as indignating racial prejudice. Colored Trustees It remains to be seen how much pride the colored trustees have. If they are not in malous situation, they should, resent the trick. If they entered with their eyes open, they should be honest enough to express their sympathy for the trustees, but they will make a clean cut statement of their position. We can appreciate the reason to resign. He restates to resign. He said doubtless, the confidence of his board. He may feel that since his board is for him, it matters not who is against him, but never, no security in such a refuge. Serves 12,000,000 The president of Howard University is not serving a board of trustees, but a board of colored people. Whenever he, he word or deed, express his indifference to that service, he ought to refuse to give a greater contempt for that service than to preside over another school that resumes to admit a Negro student. No Conspiracy We scout at the notion of a "conspiracy" at either Flask or Howard "to get" the president. No doubt, he has met the challenge, have manifested an unethical and unprofessional interest in the student's cause; but the real case at either institution was that of pungy students. The president's tools of administration. These presidents may have intellectual vision, but they have not been able to control themselves or to employ the instrumentalities to control others. The president's strength is merely the prelude of a great internal struggle, at these institutions, that will never down until conditions are improved. The internal struggle is the strength of the germ. Long will be the fever and off-recurring unless the poison is eliminated from the system. Men unsympathetic with the president, and an ambitions of Negro youth, have successfully guide Negro students. Raelal Pride ONAL CA ing, he is not forgetting the benefits of education. He is taking his students to the remotest corners of the land. Racial pride is the grand swelling theme in which many students display swallowing up. For this reason, there can be no concord between the president of other universities and the president of the university cannot be restored. Fisk's president, therefore, made no mistake when he resigned. Howard's president, under his greater service than by following this lead. Faculty at Disadvantage In all this turmoil at Howard, the professors are at the greatest risk of being cases before the public and won the sympathy of the press. The president, Mr. Bush, is on the board. The faculty has no outlet. An expression of the faculty's bitter complaint in print would lead to a charge of insubordination. Give Faculty Hearing We hope that the trustees will give the faculty an impartial heart and give them the confidence the faculty will tell the full story of Howard's declining prestige. The faculty will have all sides of the Howard muddle. Meanwhile, we repeat our belief that the faculty should be clearly that of Bishop's president; namely to resign the presidency.

(Billboard) JACKSON New Pagest to be Presented The West Virginia Collegiate Institute will present on June 1, a new pagest, and a final years Chance Cannon White, well known violinist, and George Wells Parker, author and historian, having taught music a pagest that will introduce absolutely new values into Negro art. The program is succeeded in the testimony of critics who have listened to the music and mastered production. More than 150 students are taking part in the program, including a music band, Orchestra and Glee Club. The theme of the pageant is its newness, inspiring in its gorgeous presentation and classic in its musical accompaniment. A Negro student, deeply absorbed in the study of Egyptian magic, unwittingly repeats a cavalista sentence that calls before him the Spirit of the Past. The latter demands to know why he has been disturbed and the student, half fearful, explains that he has been trying to learn something of the past history of his race. He asks the Spirit to tell him, whereupon the Spirits calls from out of the past a series of scenes that show Africa and Africans in their days of glorious greatness. Episodes from the history of Egypt, Claiden, Tyre, and Greece, follow each other and all are worked out with gorgeous stage settings, period costumes, native music and classic dancing, that his fair to stand preemently among the artistic productions of the race in America. Comedy Club Then comes the Colored Comedy Club, with the greatest Negro valuette bill we have ever seen assembled bill. We have even seen it on the show.

We dance Muses Murles make up the quartet and it's a great make. That was the first Choristera Strike Then came George Ocklennon and his charmer, the same George Ocklennon is proclaimed humbly from where he doubled to make the show, Dave and Tressa. He was a bit nervous. Butterbeers and Susie, stars of record and the T. O. B. A., and Byrd and Evang. to you, wasn't the cut out bill? The engagement was played 60-50 years ago, and the performers worked for their club at figures they would have laughed at. But McKinney still staged a show, but the management will have to sell the theater or for the club has set, not on a commercial basis. Just to jazz up a bit, we can tell of the miniature strike staged at uber theatre, the girls of the Chocolate Dandles. It lasted 25 minutes and held the captain until the girls had won Deacon Auto Trouping A. D. Jackson, manager of the Garage of A. D.

JONES REPORTS ON EAST AFRICA Finds Natives Looking On While Foreigners play Football with Africa's Future COMMISSION SPENT SIX MONTHS THERE n't try to Destroy it New York—The natives of Africa are at present, on the sidelines, watching European and Asiatic settlers play football with the future of a conquest, and the great question mark of international peace and prosperity, according to the official report of the Educational Commission to East Africa, petitioned by the Philex-Stokes Fund. The Commission spent six months in the field, traveling from French and German lands to supplement the work of a similar group which studied West, South and Equatorial Africa in 1910. The chairman of both Commission was Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, education officer of the Philex-Stokes Fund which was founded in 1908 to promote Negro education in the South and the missionary societies of Great Britain, organized by lending experts to serve on the Commissions. Natives Nerd The solution he recommends is stated in terms of education intelligently adapted to the needs of mature clients, is urged, and Dr. Jones gives as his basic "simples" of education: 1—health and sanitation for a child where infant care is from 300 to upwards 900 per thousand. 2—Training in crop production, animal husbandry, food preservation, and animal care who are often decimated by famine in a land of plenty. 3—proper understanding of the choreography, including preparation of food, provision of proper clothing and care of the ill. 4—perception and amusements for a people motivated for the physical and sexual excesses of their primitive games. 5—the character building influences of the Christian religion; at the same time he would salvage as much as possible of native traditions and customs by building them into the proper channels. The report also recommends that a Director of Education be included in every territorial administration. The pioneer and continuing importance schools he recognized by grants is inadequate. However degraded her status and the fields great power over the health and the home life of her family, and education is therefore every bit important for girls as it is for the boys.

O. B. A. Unit In Nashville On Monday Of This Week Since Mamie Smith started musical America with her rendition of the "Crazy Blues" there have been a host of female "blue moaners" to bid for recognition in the "inmor" hall of fame. Some of these artists have pleased when heard, but have proven a point of view, making personal appearances, not so, however with Edmona Henderson appearing at the event this week. The singer, an exclusive recorder for a large company, is a buxon brown girl with a set of teeth of the kind that dentists use to adorn their teeth and other adorable teeth. Without any announcement or fanfro the singer 'same on' Monday night, smiled, and recited an ovation, which she said was the audience aware of her she must have received for her personality. Sang Four Songs Opening with "Haterful Blues" Miss Henderson sold four numbers before the buyer permitted her to retire. Her voice was one of contenders that seems to have been by no means by virtue of providence to all blue singers. Clever Showman Rare showmanship was shown by the artist. She proving that she was too wiso to stay out after having pleased to just the proper degree Unaccompanied by any other music than was handled by the house orchestra she proved that a faze band was not essential to the success of a capable artist. Before the applause had subsided an interviewer greeted the lady where she was absorbed in the following act. No formal introduction was undergone, merely the newspaper headline, a responding to the singer, a response of those dazzling teeth and a bell was well. Louisville Girl Miss Henderson was born in Kentucky and has been singing for record production about two years, filling vaudeville dates here and there. She was unable to recall her inspiration for "bues" singing or the name of her band, but she entered the field her "caped" songs have been in demand. Goes to Nashville Recently she has been a member of Joe Clark's Revue, but now has returned to vaudeville as a featured artist. She opens with her unit at Nashville, Tenn., on next Monday. When it is considered that Nashville is approximately $00 miles from Baltimore and Miss Henderson must travel in illly定制的 coaches to reach her destination perhaps you will wonder if the smile will be quite so radiant or her voice will be when she reaches forney's end. Perhaps a personal prediction will be permitted, if so, I'll tell you, YES. ARNOLD'S DOPE FROM T. O. B. A. CIRCUIT B. W. A.

Both Miss Matthews and Miss Carter are Baltimore girls. Miss Matthews is teaching in School 110 in Baltimore, and Miss Carter is a student of the Teachers Training School. Many Encores Miss Matthews gave a very charming rendition of . several groups of songs. Included in her reportorite verses: "Better Wear," Wait Till I Put On My Crown," "Open Now Thy Bright Eyes," and "Homing." She gave several encore numbers in obedience to the applause of the violence. Miss Carter Reads Miss Carter's talent is almost paradoxical. It is hard to believe that one can be so finished in the art of interpretive reading as she, without having a great deal more training than she did in the creation of "Rienzi to the Roman," and Dunbar's "Jump Back, Honey, Jump Back," were wonderful. She credibly read, Dunbar's "Passuschus," and Willis "Passerchusus," 160.

Five Vacant Houses There are five "dark" houses in the city. A far too large proportion considering Baltimore's large and growing population. They are Douglass, Lafayette, Goldfield, Rainbow, and National. Kansas City, Mo. has approximately less than one half our inhabitants and many more going picture and vaudeville house. And then some birds are forever singing "Baltimore Our Baltimore." New Class Of Trouper What has become of the ballyhooing, six-sheeting, gaudily dressed trouper of yesteryear. That bird who had a voice that could be consummated in use, and yet wear like a woman's tongue. That much beheaded little bird says that he hath gone where the woodbine huts. We are forced to agree with the latter statement in his stand we find tastefully dressed young people, graduated from enough representative schools and colleges to read like the honor roll at Oxford. Two Troupers Recently a performer died, he was a member of several organizations, a college graduate, and left a bank account and properties that were of no mean proportion. During life he was known as an artist of distinction and a gentleman off stage. Tourette, the professional pages and colleagues, performed for 10 years ago. read of the death of another performer. The latter died without a dollar in the bank or elsewhere for that matter. He had a goodfellow for he had taken. "Easy come easy go," for his motto. There was no insurance so his fellow artists benefited for him donating their services. Fortunately he expired in a large city where there were many to aid. The receipts from the benefit performance were insufficient so kindly proprietors bought up the balance, and the actor was given a burial. Had he died among strangers he would not have received this kindness. Had the former provident performer his last breath in Nome, Alaska, or Ecuador he was formed against the ravages of disease or the dis honor of having been born. There are today remaining thousands of each of these classes of artists. Gradually the scale is settling toward him or her who prepares for a day of shower out of bright skies. The day of the benefit is becoming as obsolete as the Dodo. WATCH YOUR STEP. The Limit Reached Recently our attention was directed toward a group of songs purporting to be Negro spirituals. Instantly our lamps were focussed on them, but one glance at the cover caused us to drop the same like the proverbial. To our chinatran and mortification was printed in unmistakable English, "DARKKEY SPIRITUALS," by David W. Guinn. And yet they shot men like Lincoln. Perhaps the estimable Davy feels that his entrifyment to a group of American citizens will have no effect on those Negro go-getters who will stoop to any humiliating means to capture a few alms from the gutter of disrespect. Outdoor Season Here The bluebirds and robins are calling the outdoor men. The salesmen are selecting their stocks, tuning up their equipment and overhauling their Ford's for a trek towards wherever there is a chance to vend their warek. Rockville, Montgomery County, this state, confers upon us the proud Fair Association in the person of Henry Hartman. Rockville also stages distinction of being the home of the president of the National Negro Association that has long been an institution in the state. a horse shows in Emory Grove. My Lady's Minor, Towon, Laurel, Salisbury, and innumerable communities will at hold fars and celebrations during the season. Living ("Brother") Waters one of the best novelty men in the game, Stewart Frazier who conducts a jewelry store and follows them wherever they go, Mansy Valentine, Rufus Brevard, and other high and low "itchmen" have wintered in and about Baltimore and are raring to go as soon as "Old Man Weather" says the word. Fans Greet Tom Mix Colored "fans" were present in mighty numbers last Friday afternoon when the western picture ace Tom Mix and Tony the wonder horse appeared outside a Lexington Street Tl. attro. The actor has recently returned from Europe where he has been appearing in all of the principal capitals as a publicity stunt for a film firm. His local appearance was but one of many that he will make in principal Eastern cities before returning to Los Angeles. OPEN EAST A new members of the AFRO-AMERICAN staff caught a fleeting glimpse of the screen idol as he and Tony passed the AFRO building Friday on a truck. Business Not So Good The coming of warm weather is causing many of the indoor proprietors of the theatres to scratch their heads. There seems to have begun the normal summer slump. Outdoor cement has the call just now. A Southern correspondent makes the same complaint. He says, "The show business is way below us here, even the white theatres, movies included, are doing nothing to brag on. The streets here are deserted at 8:15. We should do they so." "It's a mystery to me. If they don't go to the shows, then where?" The funny part is that when Saturday comes everyone rolls out. The streets are thick. Joe Bright Sued Suit was recently filed in the Baltimore City Court through a local firm of attorneys by S. S. Campbell of Jacksonville. Florida against Joe Bright actor for $404.

Saturday, May 30 CHARLESTON DANCE IS MANY YEARS OLD "Came I Walk," "Fishing" And Buzzard Lope" Were Also Danced VIOLINS AND CORNET IN STRING BAND Song Writer, Native Of South Carolina City, Talks For Reporter The Charleston Dance Has swept the country with a wave that bids fair to eclipse any of the modern crazes that have won popular approval for many moons. This exotic creation so dissimilar to the precise waltz, two-step, polka, or even the more modern fox-trot can be directly traced to the south Carolina city. Lately there has been a merry year waged with printers ink among a number of prominent colored artists as a means for the introduction of the Charleston to New York. Pro and con most of the claimants seem to have made out a good case for themselves, that is for the modern version, but the honors for the original dance which belongs—In Charleston. Charlestonk n Demonstrates In order that first hand information might be obtained no better person appealed to us in our search light than Tour Delaney the local song-writer and actor, who is a native of Charleston, and therefore, qualified to speak with authority. This artist says that most of the pieces used today in the modern dance concept of the dance were used in a form of dance resembling the harriers. Eight couples were generally the accepted number on the floor. A director stood upon a platform and called the figures. A quiet band composed of first and second violin, double bass (or bull paddle) took the place of the modern drums and bass. The band furnished the "bottom", and correct usually completed the instrumenta- "Block and Fall" First in the dance routine was load up fours, next balance all, followed by swing your partners. Block and fall was next which resembled a step in the modern version called "fishing". Theatre attendants will, doubtslessly, recognize this movement which must be ocularly demonstrated words falling to falcibly, portray it. "Charleston Scout" Promenade was the next called, then all hands 'round, and the Charleston squat. If memory serves there was also a movement not unlike 'Get Over Sal' so much in puggle about ten years ago with cane devotees, after which breakage followed. The queer movement of the choreographer of tolkien usually takes his kit and called the 'Camel Walk' was then dignified by the name of break-leg. "Buzzard Lope" The "buzzard lope" played no small part in the series of steps, and thereby hangs a tale. This movement when resembles the awkward walk of that scavenger of the nir was said to be borrowed by hangers. Southern city where these feathered sanitary policemen awarded discarded meat thrown outside by the Judges. The birds were ever on the alert for a meal and kept a vigilant air patrol around the markets Debney says that a fine of was imposed for the killing of Jazz Playing Not only is the dance as old as the proverbial hills, said the actor, but jazz also had a firm hold on the citizens of the community many years ago. Henry Bacot, now deceased, is mentioned as having deceased in 1915, and his son of his birth 25 years ago. Caleb Rose was another cornetist of unusual ability in producing the wired blue tones so favored today. A popular dance hall of the time was the Carolina and Longshorenove's Hall which proved a mecca for the musician. The "Charleston Geezy Dance" is the name by which the modern lady of the latter day absurdity.

Richmond, Va.—"The Invisible Foe" with Mrs. Alice Hamilton Holmes in the leading role will be presented Friday night under the auspices of the Amateur Dramatic Club at True Reformers Hall. Reuben A. Clay, well-known in the amateur dramatic circle, will also be a prominent member of the cast. The Howard Dramatic Club, with Hannibal Holmes in the title role, presented "Grumpy" last Friday. Reviewers found the running time too long. The juvenile department of the Independent Office of St. Luke staged a performance on Monday May 11th, in the City Auditorium. 300 children participated. Virginia Union University's Glee Club appeared in recital at Armstrong High School on May 19th. "Sympathy" from the "Firefly," and Will Marlon Cook's "Swing Along" were especially pleasingly rendered. Professor W. H. A. Booker is director of the "Dad" James and his company have been hired by Mr. Berger for the week's attraction, therefore there is a regular show at the Star. Each department of the company has accreived equal attention hence there is a well rounded performance gallery. From the animated opening to finale there is a wealth of action that kept the chairholders on their toes. Principals and choristers vied with each other in their effort to give a full day's work for a full day's pay. Who has but recently recovered from an operation, appeared on Monday afternoon. In a neat speech he spoke of his indisposition but announced that he and Frank DeLyons would sing "Asleep in the Deep," they kept their promise and had the very timeless shivering from the applause. Here are some examples of amusing any audience, anytime, anywhere. The parodies of "Wille Too Sweet," the capability of the two new comics, and that voice of Eleanna Johnson are worthy of anybody's money to see and hear. At The Howard Washington, D. C.—Bubble Bubble Revue, with 30 people, is doing the "strutin" at the Howard theatre. The piece presented is titled "Broadways vs. Hardlems. Booze and ale vs. the lines. Suburban Gadens, remodeled in every detail, has opened. Thousands passed the turnstiles on the two opening days. A Country Store and Sam Taylor's Band were featured last Sat- Cooper On Fence The final disposition of Jimmy Cooper's Revue for next season seems to still be a question. The owner has been variously reported as having been a Greenwich Village Follies and also accepting a franchise on the Mutual Circuit. Cooper is said to have accepted a few dates in New England houses and then Revue into a Nürnberg restaurant for the rest of the summer season. Regent Changes Dates An unavoidable change in booking has compelled the management of the Regent to postpone the play date of "Broadway Butterfly" advertised for next week, to June 18, 19, and 20. The picture substituted will be equal in attractiveness, urday. The gate is free. Williams At Seaside James Williams, former electrician at the Regent, begins his job as spotlight operator in one of the leading beach cabarets in Atlantic City on June 15th. He says there is a host of other young musicians in the scenic city. The former Baltimore is now the proud father of four husky youngsters. He sends regards to "Elli" Causby, projectionist at the Regent. Ethiopian Theatre The National Ethiopian Art Theatre gave a dramatic performance at the Lafayette Theatre, New York City, on Tuesday night. Genuine entertainment marked the presentation. Sammy In Demand It appears Sunshine Sammy has more work than he can successfully undertake. Following his T. O. E. A tour he is reported to have received overtures from the Keith-Albee interests controlling the New York Hippodrome, and also from the Loew office. With the national advertising he received when in business he reports being a finished little artist the young man seems in position to feather his nest for many years to come. STAR "BLUES DADDY" GIVES AN UNIQUE CONCERT Works By Negro Composers Only Numbers Presented "DOWN IN MOBILE" AND "GOLDEN SLIPPERS" Popular Compositions of Late 70's Reviewed At Green- wich Theatre The concert given by W. O. Handy, "father of the blues", at Greenwich Village Theatre on Sunday night of last week drew a flattering and repres- native audience. Handy's Band and Minstrels ran the whole gamut of Negro compos- itions. So elated was the veteran musician with the success of his initial effort in the unique entertainment that it is rumored that he is contemplating a new album. An old-fashioned ministrel first part began the proceedings which was a retrospective review of the most popular songs of Negro compositions from the 19th century. Christie Minstrel which were the rage in the 70's both in this country and in England. Mr. Handy resurrected the most characteristic songs of that period and reintroduced the compositions of the celebrated Jim Bland, composer of "The Golden Slippers Am Laid Away" and "Down in Mobile." Gussie L. Davis, the composer of no less than 700 songs and ballads in sentimental vein, including "My Sole Sue" and "Lighthouse by the Sea." Each decade of the last half century was represented in the program. Through the period of the once triumphant Ernest Hogan and his "Jasper Johnson", the success of the Williams and Walker productions such as "Nobody", and "May Be Cruzy", and compositions of Will Marion Cook and Cole and Johnson. "Charleston" — "Boodle Ann" A musical setting of "When Malinda Sings" by Paul Lawrence Dunbar, was also programmed. The director piloted his auditors through the maze of ragtime with exquisite skill. Especially noteworthy were the reproductions of the numbers of the late Scott Joplin up to the music of the present day, through the jungle of "blues" to the latest audacity of the "Charleston and Boodle Ann." Those Appearing The Karo White Entertainers, McKinisak and Wilson, Tom Fletcher, Carl Cook, Madam and George Robinson and other artists of equal ability and prominence appeared. Charleston Expert Denied Band Keith-Albee interests are said to look with disfavor on the act of "Bee" Jackson, white Charleston expert, who with four white girl dancers had framed an act to play the time, with a colored jazz band supplying the music. The powers that he are said to have frowned on the living of the musicians. Miss Jackson is said to have preferred the colored band because of their proven proficiency in Charleston accompaniment, and the absence of the "rizz" air of white organizations. Word from some one purporting to be an agent of Maurice L. Dodd, writes that after several seasons of social life the East Baltimore artist is desirous of returning to his first love, the stage. The question is then propounded. But can Dodd be persuading his contract with Leon Pelligrin's Troupe of Russian Ballet Dancers? This breach of contract is said to worry Maurice a great deal. In "Sleepy Philly" "How Come" has moved into the Dunbar after two record-breaking weeks at Gibson's Standard. The engagement is said to be limited.

In ingress, West won first shot and plucked one out of the center. Craig snuck out and West failed to hit him and Craig got two before leaving the ring. Craig won prizes 7-6, 7-6. The second was a thrilling affair and West won 9-4 the count at one all. In the final going it was tip and tuck all the way. With the count five all, West stuck in the ring but the ball came out.

Saturday, May 9th, Bowie played the Manassas High School at Man- assas and was defeated by a score of 10 to 10. The Plymouth Lyceum was favor- ed by a lecture by Mr. Tighman Henderson, a student of Howard University. Brown Believes A Misleading By Ed. G. Brown, Nat'l Champion 1822-23 In every chapter and account I have read of Mr. Wm. T. Tilden's the warning is set up to beware of stalemess with the matter about like this: when you have the tennis pennants forget tennis. And when he proceeds to suggest bridge, movies, golf at intervals, and by all means another exacting and absorbing interest either in the scientific development of your business or your business. This goes to again prove that every man writes from his perspective. Brown Differs from Tilden Admitting that the world's champion has in mind obvious qualifications to his dictum just as when he says in his new book, select and select, "I will always externally until completely mastered, still I venture to contend that the absolute disregard of a diversified plan and sole concentration on tennis for the whole mass of struggling men is the far more productive of greater success; and I further believe that the chances of staleness are in nowise affected. We may not be so far apart in the light we have on tennis, but we may admit that after all staleness is a mental condition and not a physical one. Champs fall to Recognize Champs If the great master of the game who admitted he did not know me in New York, he would be intelligent I will state the matter in his wise: Promising and ambitious tennis players who would scale new heights should eat, sleep, play and dream tennis without fear of becoming stale, and I venture to say that Mr. Tilden has never been never feel in his presence of a though foreign to tennis. Champ Jim Covered In keeping with the eternal tennis complex, last week I journeyed 15 miles by "sub" and steam car and finally because my skin was not white I had to walk, three miles while the superior beings were accommodated by the "private" (white) bus and the superior layers of all times, Mr. Tilden, Mr. Vincent Richards, "Sandy" Weiner, A.

SPEED BOYS WIN FIRST Smyrna, Del.-On Saturday, May 16, the Smyrna Speed Boys opened up the baseball season by defeating the Camden, C., 9-8. Club desiring a first class attraction write Manager Harvey Johnson, Box 545, Smyrna, Del. Tilden Makes Admonition entrance on my own ingenuity, unwilling to be denied the demonstration I had set my heart on, and if had to pay the ripe gift to get there believe me, it was worth 10,000 times the trouble again. Thumb and Rule Method It is beyond comprehension in 1925 to meet a person who is trying to play tennis much less a personal champion or aspirant or high school player than he has never seen Tilden and Richards in action. Think of it, for nearly ten years they have played in nearly every hamlet that boasts a tennis court around the world, and still with few exceptions Negro Tennis Boobs have mean satisfied to play by the thumb in good wood—pick up, put pat and net rush. Watch, if You Would Learn It would be a shame if they were not being steadily headed toward an undisturbed oblivion. During games we look to you to go out to Sandy 'Wanda' Warner serve when he comes to town with Tilden. Note how he throws the bat lap high, a little to the right, and reaches to hit it with his tip toes, transferring all the weight into the long flow through. One of the best ways to learn to play tennis is to play good tennis and foreign Davis Cup Champions. Sometime ago we made the statement that anyone who takes five sets to beat Talley Holmes was not necessarily a player. Mr. B. M. Clark, of Kingston, Jamalen, I. understand, won against Mr. Holmes after being in America a few weeks beat Talley decisively and easily in Baltimore. The result is readily accounted for when we realize that Mr. Clark is accustomed to playing on grass (lawn) tennis courts and the clay courts where he plays from his familiar surfaces on the islands in more ways than one. If you have played golf in which Mr. Clark plays on the 138th street grounds in Harlem and observe the close back stops, if you have a tennis court is only a tennis court. There are many differences in surfaces and climates around the world, but there have found it so in several trips abroad. Clark Would Rank 35 or 40 Mr. Vincent Richards, second ranking tennis player in the world, who beat three close sets this winter, when asked three close sets player is. Mr. Clarke answered that player is. Mr. Clarke would he rank among American players, he should say about 35 or 40. Then he said Clarke is the best on the island, but he said a number of promising young players. 10 Chicago, Ill.—Malcolm Nannon, winner of the Indianapolis Auto Derby last year at the wheel of his Barron Warnock Ford Special.

Fans remember that famous twelfth inning when the bases were full and one out, Bell walked Carr forcing in Thomas deadlocking the pitchers in the ninth inning whose throw to Duncan caught J.

But many pitchers will find it a poor policy to walk the home run slugger for "Baby" Johnson who is almost equally as record.

The object of an intentional pass is to prevent a dangerous batsman who naturally, is not con- from the situation. In which t else succeeding batsman who naturally, is not considered as dangerous as the man who is purposely walked. Like the Hildale-Kansas City game, the intentional pass is often issued when there is one out and second and third bases are occupied. The purpose is to make a doubleplay possible.

And that is when There are plenty of arguments both ways on the case. The evocses of the defense in walking a batter have been stated, but there is the opposite side to be considered. The next man at bat after the intentional pass has been issued is naturally affected by what has just happened. Players offer in their opinion of this effect: Some say it will make an offensive batter out, some say it will not. Others, keen desire to show up the pitcher and vindicate himself, while others will say it will depress him to an extent where he will be handicapped by more than mere hitting weakness. Again, any batter is likely to hit at any time. Often a batter is passed to bring up a team mate who is in a slump. This would not be done ordinarily but being in a slump the defensive team figures the odds are all against the slumping batter making a hit.

In a free hitting contest the Bacharach Giants at Miami city out-hit the Black Sox last Sunday at Maryland Park in a ragged game before nearly 500 fans, 14-8. A rain storm hit the first game in the eighth inning and the second tilt had to be postponed. Two Sox pitchers, Joffries and Strong, were driven to cover early in the "Rats" Henderson, for the opposing fifth shared little better. the first, shared his information, the tool; shared the rubber for the Sewing hats and he was very distant of them. He was bit hurt and open but he managed to keep his 12 hats safely scattered. He was credited with 3 string-outs. Errors Again errors played a prominent part in the Sox's downfall. A deep Hall Yell in center, a number of inflicted tumbles and poor fielding resulted in four hits. Day had a great day at the bat. In four trips he rapped Henderson for two doubles. Mason shinned for the Giants and connected four times in six attempts. Despite his admitted 66 years, "Top Players" hit the great ball player. His fielding and batting are the envy of many youngsters. Strong's Shots Protested The game was held up several times by the visitors who protested against Strong's "jump steady" balls. It was claimed the balls were faulty, but the Sox Kid pitcher continued to make 'em jump to the bewilderment of the Giant batters. The diamond was the cause of several singles being stretched and doubles when the ball took hot homes in the outfield. "Babe" Broke His Bat "Little Jeff" ended it a day after getting a triple and a two bigger in four turns. Every Bachelors game will end with "Woods," the Willson bacon he broke to tie it with a mighty swing in the eighth that would have been a homer, but the hit merely forced Holloway at second. The invaders plunged up one run in the ninth and five in the fifteenth of five safeties and more fumbles drove strong from the mound. A storm sent the players toose in the ninth with the catch in the eighth.

Flowers won without question, but in victory he had to keep traveling every inch of the way to maintain his lead and hold it, while Reed, determined as ever, forced the issue all the way, showing utter disregard for his opponent's incessant scoring. Reed was as awkward as Flowers and it was the local man's peculiar style that forced Flowers to go the full route to win the verdict. dict.

Under the law of the land, next year is the time for a presidential election. President Borneo will have completed his term. Unless Uncle Sam loosens his grip, the proper proclamations for an electio will not be sent out this October and President Borneo will be continued in office. President Coolidge and the American government have made half-hearted attempts to justify the occupation of Haiti.

The Supreme Court Speaks The decision of the United States Supreme Court in a case involving the right of a Japanese to naturalization papers indicates that Uncle Sam is not willing to complicate his race problem by adding yellow to the already black and white. Hidemitsu Toyota, born in Japan, came to this country in 1913, served ten years in the Coast Guard, which during the war was a part of the naval service, received eight honorable discharges, and upon application was granted citizenship papers in the Massachusetts Federal Court. The present case arose on a petition to cancel the certificate of citizenship on the ground that it was illegally procured. The case went to the United States Supreme Court, where it was decided that persons of Japanese descent may not become citizens, even though they served in the armed forces of the country, Chief Justice Taft alone dissented from this view. Mr. Justice Butler stated that up to 1870, only aliens who were free white persons were entitled to citizenship. In that year persons of African nativity and African descent were made eligible. It's an anomalous situation in which a Japanese finds himself. He is good enough to fight for a country which refuses to protect him in time of peace. He can sacrifice his life for America, which on the other hand can assume no obligation toward him under the law. It would be interesting to hear the view of Chief Justice Taft as to why he dissented, but he did not deliver a written opinion. Perhaps he thinks as we do that a man who is good enough to die for his country is good enough to live for it too.

Ninety white men, including a county judge and sheriff, are indicated on the charge of holding colored men in virtual slavery. Six are on trial. The trial lasted five days and the jury deliberated seven hours before bringing in a verdict of guilty. The trial judge sentenced one of the men to 60 days in jail and another to 90. The others are to be sentenced later. Testimony proved that the peons were brutally treated by the defendants, in turpentine camps, that they were defrauded on wages due them, and when an attempt to escape was made, they were brought back and fearfully beaten, one of the peons under threats being compelled to do the whipping. And so after the year of investigation by the Department of Justice officials, the long preparation of the case, and the trial, the sentence meted out is one that might be expected in the case of an ordinary bootlegger convicted for the first offense. Perhaps the court in the sentence of the other peonage leaders will not be so lenient. Even the backwoods of Florida might be expected to hand out adequate punishment to criminals when they are convicted. Call VErnon 6015 SQUARE Deal Eng. 628 N. Eutaw NY. 1022 EMPIR.

Here are men who there are men who are getting and using $200 per day for the proper support and care of their families and there are other men who must struggle along on $2 If you add to this fact that also here in Baltimore, from these very men in the city, we pay $2 a day, the city levies taxes through their car fares; through their clothing and food and even through their redistributes these thousands through police, park and other departments, to WHITF MEN & MOMS. I think we should wonder why some of them are shunted off into "lung blocks." I consider that the unwritten laws of prejudice deprives colored men and women from jobs in department stores as clerks, from factories as assemblers, and colored people deposit their savings, and srowls them for the most part, into corners of unremunerative labor, or into the shadows, where, at least, are crowded out of the sunshine. Take any family of five human beings, even from the depths of the ocean, and place it on a $2 daily allowance with the present cost of commodities, and THE WILL FINALLY BE BREAKD INTO A CONGEST-BLOCK Down in the hill country of Tennessee, we have seen proud Anglo-Saxon stock of blue blood degenerate children under the strain of barren and improductive soil even when they had all the fresh air and health of the highlands.

WE OUTLOOK AND SHARE IN THE DISTRIBUTION OF PUBLIC AND PRIVATE WAGES, AS WHITE MEN DO, AND THEY WILL LIVE AND DIE; AS WHITE MEN LIVE "We Must Have A Pull" If you want to get a good idea of the ethical and cultural tone of a community, listen to the frank and expressive conversation of children This writer "listened in" recently on a conversation between five young hopefuls of the Baltimore Training Course, on their prospects of getting work in their professions after graduation. "You have just got to have a pull," finally was the joint decision. What an indictment against our vanted leadership when the average youth begins work. It is probably not wholly true that a pull is necessary, as these young people believe; but we must, in community needs attention when such ideas circulate so freely among the young. Nothing is so damaging to the destruction of the spirit of fair play and reward for actual merit. When you take a glance at the shifters in adult life about you and the selfish ways in which we use our so-called "influence," you do not wonder that youth, always watching, absorbing and imitating.

A very interesting piece of news found its way into the APo-American last week. Its source was the Columbia Press American and it had been held in Lee, hero of the Mississippi boat disaster. Speaking of "Mayor Rowley Payne starting a here fund for the man who should not Tom Lee have the ballot. Then with an amazing touch of adroitness this news release gets off a piece of writing which calls attention to the fact that the Democratic party is withholding Tom Lee's vote while the Grand Old Party is doing everything. If Tom Lee comes to live in Michigan he will of course have the vote; for if the thousands of "Tom Lee" that live there had not had the vote, Tom Lee would never have been elected. Six years ago, when corruption, advertised lynchings, burnings, the open throwing of heads of lynched men, the accumulation of vice and municipal corruption, caused business men to make an effort to save the city from complete ruin, they had to call upon the help Mayor Rowliette Parne will never forget the OLD COLLED UP BY THE UNDIVIDED NEGRO CONSTITUENCY and it has been vision of men that has made the Mayor do several things. But with the Republican party in the saddle most of the people he has served have deprived of his vote, and with thousands of Tom Leces still created the more American citizenship while the Republican administration winks its eyes at their cooperation. The American citizen makes a poor spectacle talking about what the Democrats are doing. There have been when some excuse might have been offered for the Republicans sidestepping responsibility of distrustment but there will be no excuse when each exceeding election day rolls by. Questions-Answers In Negro History By GEORGE WELLS PARKER (For the Associated Negro Press) Questions pertaining to Negro History should be directed to Mr. Parker, care of the AFRO. What is the extent of Marcus Garvey's education? —W. H., Norfolk, Va. As far as the writer has been able to learn, Mr. Garvey's education has been quite limited. He has little and gained some degree of knowledge by association, he does not seem to have had the advantage of an early education which is the possession of so many Indians who come to this country. Book-A-Week BY MARY WHITE OVINGTON "HELL'S PLAYGROUND." THE Glenview Company, 225 Fifth Avenue, New York City. Price $2.00. By mail $2.10. "The famous novel," the cover reads, "upon which is based the character of Mary," the author. Doubts many of my readers have seen this immensely popular drama, now in its third year in print. I have been thinking about differing in the working out of the plot. In both pictures we have white traders, one a man of fine character in the middle of both we have the seductive African woman. In the play the hero to the end is moral and sinned against the thief, and in both we have the seductive thief. The book makes a more human hero, at least at the last, and gives a revolting scene in which he is caught in the act of death when he finds that she has been unfaithful. Both book and play flavor strongly of melodrama, and we are excited and to some conviviality. This masterpiece makes the other attem- tion more artificial. But Miss Simionto knows her Africa at first hand and writes in 1812, warring this reprisal. PROFESSOR FUDGE PROFESSOR FUDGE AMOS HOKUM SAYS The Hon. Fred. Douglass was most assuredly a great man. Born in Maryland a slave some years before Civil War, his life became one of the outstanding abolitionists in the United States. He was a silver tongued orator, a statesman and a fearless contender for the rights of the oppressed Negro. Mr. Douglass had a world wide reputation and was looked upon as an example of what the Negro mightain him in the past. He worked for the liberation of the Negro and for his unification was not-proud of his State. Mr. Douglass died the tenth of February, eighteen years after his work. Thirty years after the Honorable Fred's death finds another Fred. Douglass surrounded by the blue hills of Maryland. Though not native to the soil, he has worked for the Negro.

However, as that may be, the Reverend Father in God was until later pastor of Bethlehem, and by Christ was not long ago. Dr. Freed, Douglass was detailed to "pound" another pulpit, by the Bishop Albert Johnson. But when the Reverend Doctor responds to the meeting house was in the same fix as many of the Broadway cabarets. It was padded, the Reverend R. H. H.

After some consultation with a few of his corporals it was to bolt and have the roof of the Sundays the Reverend has been sending up prayers through the roof of what used to be the Rainbow moving picture park. But now it is just a matter of time before the new church will have a regular building and a strong congregation. Cent Following There are three opinions in the matter. Nice, Nice.

Their policy is live and let live, or take the bitter water from our great founders isolated diligently to be taking an unfair advantage and should not be tolerated. The one percenters say Kev. Douggus does not deal with our founders him in to "tare out." He has plenty of supporters, they claim, and can serve God and his congregation as well standing in the house as could in Bethel or any other church. Endge Wishes. Both Sides Luck Far be it from me to take sides in a holy matter like this. My ecclesiastical education has not put the facts and fancies in any such controversy. I wish Bethel luck and I wish Rev. Douglas luck. I wish I did believe Elizabeth will be the one to possibly revise the possessions Rev. Douglas may have success. One thing about the new church, it appears there will eventually be some change. I hear Dr. Fowler, Messes, Harry Mann and Eob Goodlow have been giving the Reverend much help and attention and I am sure that there will be surprised to hear of the three gentlemen being elevated to the trustee board as early as the organization of the congregation will permit. Question There is only one more question I want to ask in connection with this whole business, and that is who put the Bethel parsonage furniture out in the middle of Drud Hill avenue last week. I have heard of furniture being put out because parties refused to pay rent or taken out when they failed to pay installments, but this is the first time I ever saw an ex-porter of a parsonage furniture store when the church people failed tourt it away on time.

The history of Christianism in the United States, her history of our own race would be absurd, without mentioning the name of that remarkable person, Amanda Smith. She was a woman in 1831. Daughter of a father who worked practically 20 hours a day in order to buy his family. She taught herself to read by cutting large sheets of paper in her hands start-out to preach the Gospel; wrecking tradition and ethics, and casting custom to the winds. She astounded all races by conducting camp meetings and overseeing the life of the men story type, the like of which have never been seen into this day. Her travels and results of her work throughout the United States and Scotland forced open the doors and won recognition for women preachers, and was the inspiration for all campaigns. for women's rights in these days.

Mu Allakat's the famous Arabian poem, known as the golden poem of Meccai, was composed by Anta the lion, whose father was an Arab, and whose mother was an Abyssinian. Antair was born about 550 A.D., and his deeds as a warrior are famed throughout the Mohammedan world. He was also the greatest author of this day, his books and compositions to this day being accepted as classics, and ranked with the works of Wagner of Germany, Dumas of France, and Pushkin of Russia, and are marvelous treatises on heroism, magnanimity, generosity and statecraft. He died in 615 A.D. Next week. "Whatnot—195—Who was Bridgetower? 196—Who was Hob Cole."

The two races should c to wipe out the evils and p universal in their scope and There are certain general advantages which apply to both races alike and numerous ills which afflict them both. Character, intelligence, industry, thrift and economy are virtues of universal value. The germs of disease gnaw with equal avidity at the vitals of white and black alike, and have an unobstructed passage from one to the other. The two races should cooperate to the fullest extent to wipe out the evils and promote the good which are universal in their scope and application. The contact, attention and adjustment of the various races and nations of mankind constitute a problem which is of utmost importance. The problem of race adjustment is not limited to any country or continent or hemisphere, but is worldwide in its range and scope, be it found that the problem of races is the greatest issue which the world today is called upon to solve. Economie and politics are the main issues, concluding, contulve the world in the bloody flux of war, but long after the war drum has ceased to beat and the battle flag is furled, the issue of race will be complex and perplexing phases. In the United States we have but an infinitesimal fragment of the universality of race, the problem possesses certain unique and peculiar features which cause the student of social subjects to bestow upon a degree of attention accorded to the problem of race contact throughout the world. Among the many peculiar features of the American race problem may be mentioned the fact that here we have lived in a country where the weaker race has by force been brought into the midst of the stronger and insists upon insinuating itself into the life, character and desirability of the more powerful in the second place, for geographic and economic reasons the Negro element is limited mainly to the one section of the country, thus causing an unbalanced distribution of attitude and feeling of the white race. As a general proposition, it may be stated that the generous sentiment of the white race toward the Negro race is a fundamental feature of its removal from the mass. In the third place, American institutions are based upon the proposition of the equality of the races, and the fact that therefore be solved in harmony with this fundamental basis of free institutions, Volluism has somewhere stated that it is the duty of the weaker race to wean men of their prejudices than it is to civilize the hardarians. Here we have expressed the dutiful obligation to wean men of these concepts terms of a French applause. How can we wean the white race of its prejudices and at the same time lift the civilization? Either of these undertakings is sufficient to tax the highest ingenuity. But when we roll, the two into one we stand applauded at the task: First Principles Of Racial Adjustment But even if we are not at present able to make a full and satisfactory change in our understanding which must be fulfilled if the problem is to be solved at all. Our method of approach must, therefore, always be by these fundamental conditions. First, it is a universal principle that we must remember picture can together find a modus vivendi and accommodate themselves to it. Indeed, this is true of the animal of the forest in the many nudes, in the earth in the faithful portrayes the modus vivendi among the denizens of the jungle. In a re-creation in a radius of many nudes, the elephant, the lion, the tiger, the goat, the fox, the jackal, the fierce animals and the mild ones, all use this common They come and go with as much orderliness and decorum as prevails at a well-ordered breakfast table. We may therefore, rely upon the inherent prosperity and face the human adjustment and face the race situation without fear or trembling. In the second place, there can be but one ethical standard to be applied: human dignity. The law of gravitation takes no heed of distinctions among men, and so the ethical laws admit of no variation to accommodate racial arrogance. It would be disastrous to treat the two races by different moral formulas as it would be to adopt a double standard. The physician who would treat the Negro patient afflicted with the same illness in a Negro patient applied to be a patient, would violate the integrity of his profession. The merchant, the physician, the druggist, the doctor, the practical affairs find that they must apply one inviolable formula to white and black alike or stultify their consciences and dishonor their consciences and dishonor In the third place, the Negro is a human being and is endowed with all the potential faculties and powers of man, and is retarded in their development and exercise. The white race at present represents the advanced section of the human family and are trustees of human life. They have vouchsafed to them not for themselves alone or for their sons and daughters after the flesh, but for all the children of men who entered the vineyard at the eleventh hour were received on terms of compensatory equality with those who had borne the heat and burden of the day. Other men have had children and we have entered into their labors. Integral Relations Of White And Black With these fundamental propositions in mind we may approach the question of race co-operation with assistance. It is not necessary that men should agree on all issues in order that they may work effectively together for certain definitely understood objects which promote the common good. Men should work together in politics, and those with divers political views may be of the same household of faith. There are common good advantages which are common to both races alike, and numerous ilis which affect them both. Character, intelligence, industry, thrift and economy are virtues of universal value. There need be no apprehension of the need to be in the scale of excellence he will become more menaceful to the white race. World's Biggest Problem By Proximity Racial Adjustment For All Races Page Nine ease to health, ignorance to intelligence, and deprivation is a menace to health. The terms of disease can with equal avidity at the vitals of white and of black alike, and have an unobstructed ignorance. Ignorance, sloth, inefficiency, moral turpitude, by whatever element manifested, impair the standard and tone of the mind, and fail the two races to co-operate to the fullest extent to wipe out the evils and promote the good which are universal in their scope and application. Now Greatest "One touch of nature makes the whole world kin." Pity and need make universal appeal to the human heart, but the need to be upon social endeavor, because for the present his need is greatest and a Good Samaritan will rise up to bind his heart. The very presence of the Negro, with his wide circle of needs, is indeed a hedonition to thiep people among his lot is cast. It will allow him to avoid the psychological haunt which vaults itself. "I thank the Lord that I am not as other men. The priest in the parable avoid too close contact with the不便ace victim who fell among thieves and robbers, in character has kinsfolk in the world of today. To his own conduct was amply justifiable. He reasoned thus to himself; the poor victim who had fallen among the thieves was a member of his own race; he did not need a religious cult or social scheme; he could not afford to become involved in a brawn among thieves and murderer; he could not afford a preacher meeting where he had to deliver a discourse upon some topic of great theological moment and could not afford to have his train of thought One is reminded of the good, pious lady in the autobotellum days who beaten to death by foreign missions that she sold one of her shaves in order to increase her contributions to the cause. Indeed, the Sergo's presence with his speed, impermeability and deligencies growing out of his state, should lead those who are more fortunate, not to burden their hearts against his lot, but to increase their feeling for his man awakening and improvement. Let both races through service, and if we do not succeed in solving the race problem, we will accomplish that which is of infinitely more importance; we will have done our duty.

THE LAUNDRY BASKET HABIT Instead of a laundry bag use ordinary based baskets, two of them enmeshed in lvery. One is kept in the bedroom closet and one in the bathroom closet. These require no washing or cleaning and the two are many steps every week. On wash day the clothes are carried to the fine in one of these very baskets. Then, when the clothes are "gathered in" place the starched garments in one basket and the rough ironed in the other, thus saving a special sorting after the clothes are carried into the house.

You couldn't know, and you won't know until you reach the season of white hair. I am one of those who think you won't live to a ripe old age. If a man wants to live for days and days, he had batter not love his wife, but they had better not run after him. "But then I! prefer to keep quiet, I feel I'm asking not love its interest. But I'm drunk, and I'm saying things I don't want to say. "However best I ever loved my mouth, I was legend of Kokongkong—Trolie is his real name. Kolkongkong is very, very small, so small that he cannot be seen, that he exists only in the imagination. Nevertheless, he does exist. He does, it's not a lie. If he didn't, why would we call a dwarf "Where does he live? On the heights in the caves, and inside of wood. He lives off honey, yams, the fruit of the trees, and arms and arms. And the meat of the elephant. If it were not for his small size, he would be like you and me; he has just the same feet and legs and arms and arms. And he takes the hairs on his head, he hasn't a single hair on his body. If you were to find a hair, well, I'd be very much surprised. "Small as he is, Kolkongho is strong, stronger than all men and all animals taken together. He's so strong that he can hold his hands when you meet him: his handshake would tear your fingers off. "Kolkongho would immense plantations. He is rich, he is powerful, you won't imagine how rich, how powerful. "Yet rich as he is, and though his children are as numerous as the husbands, and enough workers to keep up his vast plantations. In the rainy season nothing will induce him to leave the house. And the fine weather comes, he dries his waist-cloth of leaves and grass, arms himself with a huge lionspear (spear), takes up his waist, the life of which is not to be seen, and starts off for another day. "All the roads are good roads to him, all belong to him. He traverses the mountains, he down dreadst, and where he does his terrible tricks. He paces up and down up, and down up, and blustering on the dry season, and people on the roads; in the dry season all people are engaged in the chase, than all the obligations in the world. "Ey-ey! Who's there? Someone is coming down Kollongkok's road, and he's not here but boiling water. The man is so tired he doesn't see that Kollongkok is following in his footsteps, that he is not on his neck. Ugh! Kollongkok deals him a blow that would fell an ox. A thousand.sparks flash in the victim's eyes, his heart beats. He throws his arms out and falls. Then he goes to sleep painting like a bellow. Time to lose. Quick Kollongkok sticks him into the enormous wallet, which is his inseparable companion, and runs to his plantations—quick, quick. Then he awakens the man. "Will you work on my plantations? I will give you plenty to cut. You will have women, boys, chickens, gourds, and potatoes to eat you. But if you accept my proposition, as I hope you will, I warn you be prepared never to see your villains at a Wah. Do you know? Answer me. "Tempting as is Kolikongbo's offer, his victims generate refuse it. So, though another blew of a club on the wret's neck, he is racked up again, and he has just been a swirl round to the spot where he was first struck down. When he regains consciousness, his neck hurts, his head is heavy, his legs are lump, his whole body feels bruised and chaffed. He tries to recall why. He tries and tries. Kolikongbo, however, has liked it so that he will never remember. Yet if he has not had absolutely all his senses knocked out of his, and can look about, he will see a colliongbo a short distance away, on the alert, looking "renting, waiting." "What do you think of the legend Essist's English?" "Very remarkable, Batoulaa. But I tell you something? To me the stroke of the sun and the legend of a zongbo are one and the same." He sighed softly. He, too, knew some stories. He even felt like telling one—about the origin of the sleeping sickness. But it was too long a tale. Some other time. Djourna growled and starled. He hurled insults in his dog's language and made a sudden rush to the border of the path. A few men appeared—N'gapus who had lost their way in the light. Wonderful luck! Their presence reassured Bassingham. For that night at least he was gone. He would not be alone. He was sleepy; he had better profit by his chance respite. He hurriedly gathered up a heap of leaves and wrapped them up on sleep. For one second as he closed his eyes, he thought: When I wake up it will be full daylight! Then his head nodged gently. There was talking beside him. His breathing became even and strong. He slept. CHAPTER X. Path through the brush, so fresh and dew in the morning, the atmosphere was warm and the heat, the heavy scent of flowers, quivering blades of grass, murmurings, the rustle of leaves in the breeze, the chill from hill and valley up to the pale sun. Smoke, animated sounds: tom-toms, shouts—wake up, wake up, the birds singing in the trees, and the kites wheeling and wheeling high overhead. And there was the blue of the sky, still higher, losing its color from the blaze of What a glorious day! The brush, the whole brush was going to buret the water, and you will be trumpet elephants. And you, be ngues (wart hog) and vougues (wolf) will be latrins and cease burrowing with your greedy snouts. Antelopes will be our prey. Cane rats will be our prey. Coyotes will be our prey.

(which led to the village of Sotunza the other to the Nigapana village under the rule of Yakidji, the ancient case of Sotunza. Each man took up his part for the part assigned him in the hunt whether watcher, or bearer, or beaver.) And you take to flight, too, ooahs and darrambas (hares), who you are afraid of the zoo, who you trust to nothing but the swift zigzag of your course, Run, run! Beware of the fierce tribe of the brethren of Djinn! You are the ground brown as your bodies, no use trying your shirts and tricks. Your burrowes are no shelter to you, Run, run!

There bound you to you, To be bound you won't be many kilos (golos) the great long-legged, long-necked creatures, who can reach the tallest branches, are in the prickly plants that they eat. They live in the distant country between Ouahm and Kabo, between Kabo and N'Dele, Ah, dolos with their tall, spotted bodies. Nor are bassaragbas (rhinoceros) to be seen any more—those great ungainly creatures with two uneven norms on their muzzles, little red eyes cruel and almost sightless, ugly thick-set necks, and a horrid squal like a big pig's. Yabou? The bassaragbas sees you? Rer? He makes straight for you—straight for you. Nothing can stop him. No difference! He takes, tramples down, raps open, stages in whatever bars his way. We to the man who hunts the bassaragbas. Woe to him. Woe to the man who always into the parts where the great beast first browses, then rummates. He'd better beware. He'd better invoke. N'Gakoura's most powerful protection. And should he happen to come upon the bassaragbas's treasure dropped during, he'd better beware of it; he'd better say: "Ouch! How big!" It's the eyes, he's done for. That will be the last of him. The bassaragba will come in a fury, snorting and growling and squealing, his belly distended and resounding with the perpetual dendorro of his digestion. In one lunge he'll knock the man to the ground, then he'll lie on top of him till he bursts like a dry reed; after which he'll tram, pl on him, and keep trampling on him, until his corpse is mashed into a bloody pulp for the jackals to share it night. This done—but not before it's done—he'll trot off, patala-patala. What a man he'll scamper away as you do—he'll be a bassaragba's dung is to hold his nose and snort with disgust and say: "Ugh, how it smells!" The disrespectful remark will put the beast to shame, and he'll scamper away as fast as he can. Koles and bassaraghas gone—what of it? You hunt for the sake of hunting. It is the sport of the strong, the struggle of man against beast; it is skill pitted against brute strength. The chase with its dangers is a preparation for war. Men may prove their skill, courage, strength, endurance. They must have a sure eye; they must be agile, fleet of foot, tireless; they must never pause for rest; or lose their wind, or pant; they must pursue the wounded beast, they must run, run, run, for any length of time. With the help of the dogs, it is easy enough to catch the smaller game, the hares, came-rats, and hedgehogs, who dash into the meshes of the wide-stretched bandits (nets) and get them, selves snared inextricably. The small, or antelopes may sometimes be trapped into the same way. Not so the bozolo antelopes or horse antelopes, the bozolo buffos, and elephants. Boars and buffos, unless they fall into the ditches dug for them, must be worn out and driven to bay. But is when the buffalo is driven to bay that he becomes frightfully dangerous. Feeling death slowly replace the blood that drains away through his wounds, he faces round on his assailants, lowers his head, and charges. Chatting thus of the hunt, Batouna and Bissibingh walked along together peacefully. Batouna in front, Batouna coming last with drooping ears. Every moment added to the numbers of Ulisa, Nigues, and Djepois who came to the camp with arrows, and throwing knives. The chief wore plumes on his head, and his body was smeared red with castor oil and powdered cam-wool—for the day when the men would have the men had dogs with them of the same color and surely temper as Dojouma. They marched along singing. It was fair weather. A soft lazy breeze blew upon the brush from the quarter where the sun rises to the top, and the men had a long way to go before he reached the middle of the heavens. The tom-toms of it nighs merciless climb the jutness space the rises to the top, and the men had a home. The heights of the kaga Bign, which had been crossed and left behind early in the morning, were merged in a beautiful formation. What a delightful day.

Still other men came to the Goboujia and the Gobe, and Bissiungui were among them. The provisions were imputed to the garabos, stuffed to the rim with water, and men ate and drank heartily, did Djouma and his bedmen make acquaintance in their dirty dog fessures. Then conversion began, the fessures being helducked under their haunches. "They say," began Batonda, "the lions and panthers hunt in famies. Lions do hunt with their mates, that's so. It's also so that while the lions suckles her cubs, the lions provide all the food. But not for long. As soon as the cubs have sense enough to look out for themselves, father batara (lion) and mother batara give them to understand that they would do well to rid them of their presence. Itz zions really are fearfully hard to support, like all young people—always wanting more, and still more—never satisfied—their hunger never satisfied. Now if you want something, you must work for it. So father batara "Douhont... don't doubt" and holds terrible eyes, hares his tings and puts up and down, lashing his flanks with an angry tail. "There's another story about love, just as untrue and harder to make people disbelieve—that they are when they lie in wait for their prey. Non-sense! If people'd stop to think, they wouldn't say such things. See here. If you're on the tracks of an antelope, don't you try to keep as quiet as you possibly can? So why should the lion do differently?

BAURENSCHMIDT Excessive Death Rate Much More Alarming Than Decrease In Births DIRECTOR OF ALL PUBLIC SCHOOLS ADVOCATED Adequate Salaries, Use Of Stadium And New School Loan Are Discussed "Until we devise some way of taking better care of the children now being born in our city, the decreasing birth rate should not give us our greatest concern." said Mrs. Mary O. H. Baureuschmidt, white, before the N. A. A. C. P. forum Sunday aftercoff at Bethel Church. Mrs. Baureuschmidt was referring to recently published reports of the high death rate and decreasing birth rate among Negro children and called attention to the necessity of getting behind the Health Department that more effective compulsory and attenuated hegemony be given parental and infant care. A director of all public schools, a new loan in which the colored school building program will have a deimale place, junior high schools and the use of the stadium for a health pagent were also stressed by the speak- Between 300 and 400 people braved the fright weather and listened with frequent applause to the carefully prepared speech in a twilight background caused by the extinguishing of lights when the electric current was suddenly cut off during the hall storm. SCHOOL DIRECTOR In commenting upon recent movements to define the status and name of the present supervisor of colored schools, Mrs. Taunerschmidt explained at length why she was not contending for an assistant superintendent. A director of public education, a director of public education only more of a capability but that she had practical assurance from those in authority that a director would be appointed and that the salary would be made adequate to attract a capable man. ADVOCATES LOAN Considerable applause greeted the speaker when she stated that she advocated a loan in which a colored school housing program would be a definite consideration. The most pressing need of the colored school system, according to Mrs. Eurinerschmidt is, the housing situation and she called upon local organizations to concentrate their effort behind a movement to develop the sum, would be designated to bring colored school designated to bring colored school in Baltimore. The speaker explained why her organization would not get officially behind a project to equal salaries either as to sex or race. This, she said, was an adult matter. The organization had favored unqualifiedly the equalization of salaries as well as the equalization of all conditions in the public schools, without regard to race or creed, the public School Association, or the child's upbringing. The child take up the endge of adults who are more able to take care of themselves. WANT STADIUM The probability of securing the use of the Stadium for Health Pagestan was also touched upon by Mrs. Krauenschmidt. While making no public promises, she announced that Mr. Jackson, Howard Bryant and W. I. Nexris, president of the Park Board now favored a granting of its use for such purpose. Considerable amusement was provoked by the political aspect of the local situation. A prominent white politician asked her whether or not the Federation of Parent-Teachers' Associations and another similar organization had any real strength politically, and asserted something and so on." she replied. She pointed out, however, that she was in the light not as a politician but that she was making her right to vote more and more and justice to all groups and people. DE O'CONNELL SPEAKS Dr. Pezavia O'Connell, vice president of Morgan College, preceded Mrs. Baumerschmidt with a woll received talk on the work of the N. A. A. C. P.

The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly LETTERS FROM READERS The AFRO has been running just such an appeal to abstain from the use of Epithebs on its Woman's Page. To Whom it归因? While I am writing let me ask what you think of the newspapers, such as your own, for instance, starting a campaign to get our people to quit, as a matter of self respect, addressing each other as "Nigger and Coot" and to blot those words from our vocabularies. Unless we respect ourselves we cannot, of right, hope for respect from others. It seems to me this would be a good way to get rid of that "interiority complex" that so many of us still have. J. H.

In the first place there was no one here to indict me, or to appear at all, knows how handicapped the affirmative team was.

These same bushes in which I made an unsuccessful attempt to ride in Feb. 1921 are now to be used extensively in Drudh Hill Park. I once used them to go to the Cincinnati Street in one, and on this particular occasion (Lincoln's Birthday) I again attempted to do so, solely because I thought that at some time their patronage would increase, and that my race might be kept from using them. I remember I am sure that I was forced to alight, and although I made an investigation I could not get a single person to go with me, while I boarded them again. One representative man said, "We should not let us from out of town look into this barrier down. Such cowardice. Now is this to go unchanged or will you and your press kindly take up this matter? Are these same bushes to refuse to carry us in the dirt in this street or fight on it Or will you help fight it out with the United Railways? I am very truly yours. Sarah M. Blanchwell, 1408 1-2 Madison avenue. Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois accused of Plagiarism and other nice things. To the Editor: I have read with much interest Dr. Du Bois' criticism in the May "Crisis" of my book "The Chosen People." I simply allow me to say that a literary critic has the right to criticise a book or its author, therefore, I have no objection to your criticising me, or my inability to measure up to standard of mastering the "King's English." You state: "His book contains many interesting citations from many reputable critics etc. But its worth is limited by the inclusion of much trash, myth, legend, exploded theory, established fact, etc." Now this brings us to the crux of your criticism. What part of this book do you consider trash, etc.? Certainly it is not the historical part, as you will find a similar historical statements in Mr. Du Bois book, Negro's Journal, and pages 88 and 40 in the May "Crisis" you will find historical statements which are also in "The Chosen People." I also desire to call your attention to the "established fact that the Chosen People were Negro" after he had read the manuscript of "The Chosen People" A.

Forrest Cozart, Ohio Ave. Atlantic City, N. J. Sentenced to "Cut," says Annapolis man, without Defense trial or jury. Will you kindly inform me in reply to this letter if there is a law in the State of Maryland that allows a citizen to be arrested for boo-legging without a warrant and kept in fall eleven days, refused to give him a hearing? The aforementioned citizen was then presented before a judge without an indictment, the constitutional rights of the citizen to be tried before judge or jury. In the first place there was no one here to indict me, or to appear in court against me when the case came up for trial. I did not have an opportunity to reveal the real facts of my case, so the court before me denied me the right to pay a fine of $50 and costs. Unless this fine is paid I will be resentenced to the House of Correction or my former sentence is to be reconsidered to that effect. I may mention the fact here that I have been convicted of whose only income is obtained through the conviction of such cases and you can realize what chance a man has under these conditions. In other words the county pays bim for each conviction. We can deal with such cases by defending sheriffs are so active in this county. I do not know of any other county in the state where these conditions are the same. George Jackson, County Jail. 0 "Twas ever thus: The Home Team always Wins, even if it loses." Debates like Baseball are no exception to the Rule. To the Editor: Snow Hill High School won the debate but Denton High School was given the decision." If public opinion has any weight at all, the above statement is about correct for that was the consensus between Denton and Snow Hill at Morgan College, Friday, May 15, 1925. The Snow Hill (affirmative) was represented by Charles and Amanda Spencer. Dorothy Purnell and Cliffon Collick (negative) represented the school, which percent to the satisfaction of his coach. They went to Morgan College with the intention of carrying back to Snow Hill the trophy, a silver cup, and they let all Morgan and those concerned know it as soon as they arrived. No team on the campus fought harder than did they, were at a disadvantage throughout. First, cries could be heard. "We can't let any Eastern Shore school win this debate, and so far down as Snow Hill." This put pep in Charles, the star affirmative. One of the judges stated "Charles was a little too vehement, but I had to give him 100 per cent in rebuttal for it was the only rebuttal made here today." Second, the affirmative debated the whole affirmative most strikes of all, for some reason, parliamentary procedure was side-stopped, and the Snow Hill affirmatives were made to accept the first rebuttal. Anyone who knows anything about debating at all, knows how handicapped the affirmative team was. After a hot discussion, Mr. Huffington, the State Supervisor of Colored Schools, was called in, and he, after admitting it was unparticipant (to avoid confusion) the affirmative team first argument and first rebuttal. Snow Hill had already whipped Elkton, and so had Denton whipped Maribore, both sides in each case credited with a win, but the hardest light was the rub-off between Denton and Snow Hill. The decision was finally given to Denton by nineteen-thirds of a point, Jackson. 0 Denies that West Indians are more keys as regular fare. Former daemon replies to views recently depressed by Bishop A. L. Gatts. To the Editor: As a reader of your paper for the last 15 years, any attention was drawn to an article in last week's issue, to a statement supposed to have been brought from the West Indies by Bishop A. L. Galines, in which he declares that the societies are looking to Negroes for assistance in various industries. I am very sorry that the learned gentleman did not notice that small though the industrial activity may be, 75 per cent of it is owned and controlled by Negro natives. It is a known fact all over this that with the exposition of the Governor's paper people are offered any other. The bona business, about the largest industry on the island and controlled by white Americans, has no job too good to pay, too high to be given to a person of its size, not one barred because of color on the board of directors. The president, superintendent, inspectors, etc., of schools and colleges are much darker in complexion than Bishop Gaines. According to your paper he said that laborers are paid 20 cents per hour but not know what the 20 cents means, but I know that laborers are paid 20 cents per hour during the winter months and 30 cents during other seasons of the year. Other jobs compete with shiploading are held 40 per cent by Nexcess and pay from $3 to $4 per day. There are natives employed on the indenture plan. The owners of cultivation import. East Indian (coolies) and employ them under a contract, so much greed upon amount, that they greed upon her parties. Some of our farmers in this country are doing that today. When it comes to begging, we have beggars everywhere. It would seem impossible for the Bishop to see anyone living in bevels, (as he can see them) when the british sanitary laws are the most vigorous in the world. Kingston, the second city in the West Indies, has always been a growing place having every convenience and necessity required and can be compared with the French. At sight, one would consider it much more wealthy than it really is. As a native of Jamaica, I had the privilege of visiting other West Indian Islands also.

W., 12th St. Miami, Flu. 0 Existence of God not the only known fact. To the Editor: I am glad to know that Mr. Wm. N. Jones, of the Afro-American believes "That there is a God," as per his confession in the issue of the present week. "I believe of us, who profess the Christian faith, cannot agree with him, that the existence of God "is about the only known thing." Christians believe that God revealed himself in Jesus our Lord. They believe that everything which our Lord us about is God. The monument reared in the world through Jesus Christ proves conclusively that He was the Son of God. If such be not true, Mr. Jones and those who believe as such exist an explanation of the revolutions wrought in the world through Christianity. An infinite God of Love and Power could not leave his creation in darkness and in uncertainty. As a matter of fact, he did manifest Himself in flesh, as The Way, The Truth, and The Life, and infailibly proclaimed that whosoever followed that Light would not walk in darkness. The outside observer can receive no more light than appears in the case of friend loves. It may be a hard saying, but it is and indeed true. "We must be born again." He that believeth hath the Witness in Himself. Jesus Christ, as The Way, The Life, The Truth, which I have preached for more than 30 years, has blessed and inspired the lives of thousands, has helped situation and saved some other name or thing under heaven, will it accomplish a greater salvation for them in this present life? That is the practical point of Christianity. And Christianity is exclusive. It is Christ or nothing. If a man believes in Christ, there can not be any compromise with anything that is opposed to Christ, this is why Jesus Christ is the only Saviour of the world. And God helping me, this truth I shall ever declare until this poor lisping stammering tongue lies silent. Geo. F. Bragg. Jr. Morton, Pa., reader pays high compliment to Bishop J Albert Johnson, at Philadelphia. EDITOR AFRO-AMERICAN: At the New York Conference of the A. M. E. Church a number of ministers took courses of learning what the published the Philadelphia Conference might be were told to get the AFRO-AMERICAN. Your short article concerning that conference was correct in every particular but it did not come any nearer FLAV When you drink is the flavor You don't get tits and low g Page Eleven giving a comprehensive account of the actual doings of the conference than what the Christian Recorder would give in a page. Your article was ten in size and it came as close to the heart of things will be reached by any official report. It is not the intention of the writer to volunteer any conference report, the fact is that an annual conference held in the open conceals its inner workings as effectively as any secret a wise "guy" who can correctly interpret the doings of a conference. Those who do understand too well know the certain consequence of indecisive talk to give anything away, and the certain consequence of to add the information to what your columns gave last week by saying that Bishop J. Albert Johnson was not only an enquisition visitor to the conference, but also was recorded the honor of presiding during an important session. It is but expressing the general opinion to say that he was highly amputated. Bishop W. M. Heard paid him a pronounced compliment last Monday before the Philadelphia Presbyterian Meeting, when he presided were in accord with the compliment paid. Bishop Heard spoke of Bishop Johnson as a "high class gentleman," which tribute to and recognition of culture, character and conduct was so much that he received with sincerity applause. While the A. M. E. Church reaches and draws in but a small proportion of the cultured people of the community, yet it must be given credit for having in its ministry and membership many individuals of the race. The time may come when the ministry and the bishop will not hesitate to give cordial welcome to all classes of the communities. For the above mention of the presence of Bishop Johnson the purpose of this communication is performed. Jonus M. Hexnessen, Morton, Pa. Delaware is in the same class with Georgia and Texas—a backward State. Delaware still, has the whipping post and they say Georgia is going back to the use of the stocks for punishing humans. Well, we suppose that there must be some hereditary morons in the family of the 48 more or less civilized states, just as idiots are sometimes born in Texas. Now if Texas will just pass a law to "punish people by burning alive, perhaps the population of Texas can become more law-abiding. The level of a state in civilization can be gauged from its penal code. And in spite of the geographical location of Delaware it has always been the days of American slavery belonged in a class with Georgia and Texas. William Plekens, N. V. C. Tuesday, 5 P.

Black-Draught was the first thing I found that "oil give me any relief. I have always been sluggish. Sometimes it gives me a lot of trouble. I have suffered a lot with it—pains in my side and back, and had headache, caused from extreme illnesses." "After I found Black-Draught, I would begin to take it as soon as I could.

"SELF MASTERY" "He that ruleth his spirit is given Proverbs 14: 32. Man is conquering animal. Eat to seize the earth and possess it. Do all animal life is subject to it. All animal become his servants he deploys the wilderness and the dry plains bring forth harvests for his enjoyment by right of conquest. He fathoms he dissupses himself in the air and serves him. By sheer force of intellect man the air and gained control over all he conquers SELF. In such a situation is brought in to play—the WIF waged in the souls of men—the strugger to the passions and Eveon a counterpart in the soil will always present." "For he perform that which is good I love one's self. Look for help from OND aid Pan, I can do all things through ALL THINGS. Many so coiled great men have self manhood. Napoleon conquered by his insatiable ambition. Alexan and not because the crea was no other a drunken stupor, conquered byyna. Conquering self means "the casc high things that exalteth itself against captivity every thought to the old. It means no fear of love, for true love casc "Love that the world neither the thirst with "christ seek those things with "christ seek sin not. Let "that the evil, love the good." "Ye that is hold no malice or wrath of Happily indeed the man who is a nature and his conqueror but hap self and rules his own spirit. "He that ruleth his spirit is greater than he that taketh a City." Proverbs 16: 32. Man is a conquering animal. Early the injunction was given to him to "subdue the earth and possess it," which thing he has proceeded to do. All animal life is subject to him. Those animals which will not willingly become his servants he destroys. He has conquered the land. The wilderness have gave him possession of bosom and bring forth harvests for his enjoyment and sustenance. The sea is his by right of conquest. He fathoms its depths and rides upon its bosom. He disposs himself in the air and out flies the mighty eagle. All nature man. by sheer force of intellect man has conquered the earth, the sea and the air and gained control over all nature. But Man rises to his best as he conquers SELF. In such a subjection the highest function of mind is brought to mind—the waged conflict of the waged conflict of men—the struggle of the will to control, to dictate to the passions (emotions). The struggle of the will to control, to dictate to Evil has a counterpart in the life of every man. "When I would do good evil is always present." "For to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good and evil?" "One's self." For him from ONE who can give help and then say as aid I can do all things through Him that give me the strength." HIMIS. ALLEY Many so called great men have failed in life's greatest achievement, self mastery. Napoleon conquered Europe and in turn was conquered by his insatiable ambition. Alexander the Great conquered the world and wiped out the world was the world to conquer and then died in his supper, conquered by anappetite. Compering self means "the casting down of imaginations, and every big thing that exalteth against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thing that obediently the obedient actions, control our fears. "There is no love in love, for true love casteth out fear. Control of our loves. "Love not the world neither the things of the world. "If then ye be risen with Christ seek those things which are above. "If then ye be anger at the evil of man, upon thy wrath. "If then the evil love the good." "Ye that love the Lord, hate evil men, is hold no malice or wrath in your heart. Control of our hate. That is, hold no malice or wrath in your heart. Control of our hate. Happy indeed the man who is able to conquer the external forces of nature and his environment but happier and greater is he who conquered self and rules his own spirit.

Hatcher My first sight of Jasper must always remain in the chapter of unfortunate things. The excursion was Sunday afternoon and the Leo he added that it was one of his days of spiritual information, and he played on every key in the gamut of the human soul. Two questions had been shot at him, and they both took effect. The instinct to help the creation. For self-heal he pounded away on the creature of God. His address was very strong and had in it both argument and eloquence. He marshalled the scriptures with consummate skill, and built argument easily with the cohesion of the heart and the courage; and yet so construct and tactful was he, that his most cultured hearers bent beneath his force. But the second question brought on the prerequisites. It had to do with the origin of sin.—"What sin kum frum?" as he ooingly copied it. It was here that the a rheumatism came to the mind, the preached with every faculty in his mind, with every passion and sentiment of his soul, with every nerve, every muscle, and every feature of his body. For nearly an hour the air cracked with excitement and the crowd melted beneath his spell. The sudden, unusual power of his to move people in his possible ways by a single effort. Jasper knew the fundamental decrees of the Bible admirably and always lived in vital contact with their essence. There was a kinship between the Bible and himself, and, unattuged of the schools, he studied himself in the light of the Bible and studied the Bible in darkness of the time. This oppose whenever he preached to the people and he preached he invaded their experience and made conscious their wants to themselves. And so he came to pass that questions which perplexed them they had the habit of bringing to him. This question as to the origin of sin had been spurring and nagging some of his speculative hearers unwrapped over it, and they unloaded their perplexity burden heavy upon him that he came to the pulpit on this occasion. It may have been a touch of his dramatic art, but at any rate he showed an amiable Irritation. in few of his being under constant pressure, his controversal church members, and his questioning question as dan? Dar air' but wun place in de univus uv God what yer kin git any infermashun on dis pt, and dar, I am free tel tel yer, yer kin git all dat yer wish ter show, and maybe a good deo mo' whae whar de nolldge yer need slip him. z'in de yw word de 'hew' I knows z'in de yw word de 'hew' in talkin' bout d'is thing is arter.

The confession of Miss Carrie came only after she was told that while she was being detained on suspicion, Collins, whom she loved, was hitting the high spots with other womee. Had Careful System On the witness stand Miss Carr told a story which rivaled anything reasoned officers had ever heard. Her lover, she said, always picked out the homes she was to enter and always succeeded in getting her a place to work nearby. She troubled a home which she worked at, and depended her spare hours watching the movements of the inmates of the home are planned to enter. At some opportune moment she would just walk into an open door and get what she thought and depart. She never could, notwithstanding the fact that she entered 20 homes. Collins was "Fence" In her testimony she also stated that collins disposed of all the loot, which went into hundreds of dollars and comprised many valuable pieces of jewelry. It was the tracing of one of this loot to Collins when caused suspicion to fall upon the civil. For three days she took officers over ground covered in her robberies, and told of how each one was committed. Both were found guilty, the girl being sentenced to two months in the House of Correction and Collins was given two years. Delegation Visits Atlantic City A special delegation to visit the X.

Jackson for alleged hoonings. In a letter to the Moe-American recently Jackson complained that he was arrested without a warrant kept in jail 11 days without a hearing, presented without an indictment and robbed of his constitutional rights for a trial jury. Judge Moss' statement is as fol- Pleaded Guilty "I find from my docket that George Jackson was indicted for violating the local liquor laws of Annapolis City at the April Term, on the 4th of May, the first day of the trial of him or his case, he appeared in Court and promptly pleaded guilty. "I could have hined him $1,000 and sen him to jail or the House of Correction, or both fine and imprisonment. As it was his first impose any jail sentence, of course he is confined in jail until the fine and costs are paid." No Complaint "I Jave had no complaint from him that the fine was too high, or that there was any amount that he could pay, in fact I have not heard of his case since the day he was freed. I cannot answer your question as to him being detained in jail before indictment in hearing. Sometimes when they are arrested, while the grand jury is in session they often hold them until the Grand Jury brings in the presentment. Information as to these matters do not come before me, but you can learn all about the Attorney of the County, or born. "Yet, I remark that a hearing could have done Jackson no good if he intended to plead guilty when his case was heard. As to the Deputy Sheriffs and what fees they receive you can learn that from the Sheriff, John Bowie, of this county."

Strickler street, the wife; John Monroe, 323 N. Biddle street, the bus, bishop Judy, the judge. The prelude: After three years of married life and one year of separation, the couple land on the matrimonial rocks in the magistrate's court. Judge—Now what is your compulsion? The Wife—Judge, that's about all I have got, complaints. It's a dog's life. This man left me a year ago and all he gives me to take care of three children is three dollars each month. You live with your wife and support her and the children? The Husband—it's just like this, your honor; I am actually afraid to live in my prison in my food. I have to rent a room and live somewhere else. The Wife—Don't you believe that man, Judge. It was not poison he was afraid of, but because of some one more attractive he had in that room The Judge—Well, I don't know so much about the cause, but he is going to pay you seven dollars per week, or his rooming place will be at the city jail. When Miss Edna Hampton, 1114 Argyle avenue, tells another woman not to dance with her beau she means "don't." Miss Daisy Mickey, $20 Harlem avenue, never didn't know she earnest the young woman was when she received orders to that effect in the New Albert Auditorium Tuesday night. After she returned from the hospital she was convinced, that is why she swore out a warrant for that young woman's arrest. Edna was duly appalled and answered the charge of assaulting and cutting Daisy with a razor. "Judge," said Miss Daisy, "when I was dancing with a fellow that girl came over and snatched him away from me." Is that all she did? asked the judge. "No, your Honor, when we took another dance she came over and snatched me away from him." "Did it end there?" was the next query. "Judge," continued Miss Hicks, "if it had coded there we wouldn't be another dance with him, she couldn't any longer and drew a razor and cut me three times." Love is a mighty strange thing," said Hicks, "she had no right to cut her, Edman, so I am going to find you $25 and costs." "Bring out the next case," said the Magistrate, Wednesday morning. The turkey compiled and George Parr, M3 Little Mountain street, was led into the house. "He said the turkey, 'he has been crying all night,' and even at that moment great salt tears trickled down the prisoner's face. He called the unhappy, man, 'my wife just had me locked up so she could get rid of me. 'Go ahead and cry,' said Mrs. Elise Parr, of the same address, "but you should have cried sooner," said what is the trouble," demanded the judge.

"Yes, your Honor," returned the wife, "of that man, said I love you, I love now why I married Parr anyway." "You married me because Johnson went off and left you, and you wanted me to take care of you," was the husbands' explanation.
