WASHINGTON SECOND EDITION Number 40 FIRST TUSK Howa MILLER, HOLMES, COOK, CHILDERS, SLATED TO GO Durkce "Expert" Report Recommends Abolishing Four Howard Dept. ALUMNI PETITION DURKEE'S DISMISSAL Annual Commencement Gathering Takes Summar- mary Action (Sirth of a series of articles on Durkheim and Howard Uni- versity. By Alumnus.) Howard University Shake Up At A Glance Survey made by R. J. Leon- ard of Columbia University and University Howard trustees. 1. Junior College abolished. Dean Kelly Miller out. Suggested he travel to raise funds. 2. New automatic retirement rule forces out our George Foley has passed his 65th year—gets one-third salary. 3. Professors reported affected by the reorganization scheme, and likely to be forced out include Prof. D. O. W. Education, Prof. Aline Locke, Ph.D. salary Prof. Metz Lochard, Prentice Prof. Alonzo Brown, Mathematics. 4. Secretary-treasurer Ernest J. Scott, according to unofficial reports will resign to enter business. Dr. Durkee still survives as president of Howard University. The eager expected meeting of the Board of Trustees has been held. Dr. Durkee put his comrades through, the usual routine, with every measure of his enacted into law. The predicted "note of confidence" was with the election of the all-nominal through the election of the Board of Trustees and the elimination of the "unruly" members. Dr. Sinclair Ousted After years of devoted and enthusiastic service to Howard University, Dr. William A. Sinclair failed of nomination. His defeat was expected, inasmuch as he had committed "high treason" against His Holy Royal Highness King James I, of Howard University. He characterized the king as 'rastac' and 'soundcurel', besides exposing the king's perfidy. grusstees and professors will please note that the king can do no wrong. Only students are liberty to challenge his divine rights. Thomas Walker an unexpected blow, with crushing effect, was struck at Attorney Thomas Walker, who was just completing his first term of the usual "life sentence" on the Board of Trustees. He had been elected to the Bofard as the alumn representative. Shortly after his election, he became actively engaged in raising funds for the School of Religion. Mr. Walker raised in pledged about $10,000 and collected $12,000 in cash. He himself contributed $1,000 to the campaign. He worked without any amount of remuneration. At the time, two paid agents in the field, he received $12,900 for their efforts, just the amount that Mr. Walker had collected in cash, so that the School of Religion Fund now exists in pledges only. Aided In Strike When the strike broke out, Mr. Walker joined with other local alumni to perform an urgent duty which the alumni president could not. He fell into disfavor for associating with the alumni and lost his membership in the family. And here it was done. Sometime ago, when there was apathy no acuity in sight, Dr. C. Summer Wormley was nominated by the Alumni for a place on the Board of Trustees. Such nomination indicated merited confidence which Howard and women have in this distinguished position, and public-spirited son of Howard. Let no reader suspect for a moment that there is any objection to Dr. Wormley's candidacy. The method is in question. The alumni suppose that their wear to have two representatives on the Board, Mr. Walker and Dr. Wormley. When this is what actually happened. Dr. Hewker, who is not only president of the Harvard University and - president of the University of Negro-barring curry, but also president of Howard, nominated Dr. Worley to fill Mr. Worley's place. Thus Dr. Worley inadvertently becomes the representative of the administration and not of the alumni. Meanwhile a glance over that unannoying tale of The SEES U. S.

TWO OUTRAGES CLIFFORD OUT STIR CAROLINA NATIVES SING TOWNSPEOPLE HALLELUJAH Three Tarboro Men Arrested For Attempt At Mutilating Lover TWO ROCKY MOUNT WHITES ARE HELD Tarboro, N. C.-Two outrages stirred North Carolina townspeople this week as never before. At Tarboro three men were arrested as they were about to mutilate William Davis whom they charged with paying attention to the fancee of one of the assailants and having refused to desist upon being warned. Three men. William Little, John Harris and William Harris, selzed Davis and carried, him to the edge of the town of Pine Tons and were about to perform the operation when the cries of the victim attracted the attention of the police. Convict Lashed To Death A coroner's jury held W. C. Gulley, road foreman and R. V. Tyler, guard, both write, for the death of Joseph Armstrong, a convict, who died Thursday after a whipping. Both men were arrested on the streets and one prisoner testified that Armstrong was severely beaten with both a stick and heavy whip by the two men, that his prostrate form, heavily tilted, was a mule and dragged about the yards. When he failed to get up when ordered the guard struck him again with his fist. Armstrong was dead within 30 minutes. Whipped For 30 Minutes Reason or the flogging was that Armstrong did not work fast enough. Witnesses testified that Gully heat Him first with a hickory stick *fifth feet long and jan inch in diameter at the butt tapering down to the end. Tyler used a whip consisting of a staff three feet long and a plaited lash of black leather. Armstrong was struck over the butt of the whip of the whip which was broken in two by the process. Body in Evidence The dead man's body gave proof of the severe flogging which he had received. It was covered with lashes, bruises and whelps from the neck to the knees. Abrasions and soft spots covered the head! Indicted Monday morning at a special session of grand jury, they plead guilty and were sentenced to 20 years in the penal tentary. Accra, Gold Coast, Africa.—C. E. Woolhouse, senior native police magistrate, has been appointed by Governor General of the Republic, the supreme court. Demonstration Marks Removal of Most Unpopular African Governor THANK GOD HE'S GONE DECLARES NEWSPAPER Lagos, Nigeria, W. A.—"Good-Bye for ever, to Sir Hugh Charles Clifford." These and similar shouts of praises went up here at the departure of Sir Hugh Clifford, royal governor of the 17,000 native souls in this colony for the past five years, a remarkable achievement, and artillery articles in local press referred to Sir Hugh as the only discourteous individual who has represented British sovereignty in this colony since its cession to the British crown, whose administration has been characterized by aplica, intolerable partisanship, automatic obstinacy, persistent discourtesy and irrational blunder. Acted Up In Church The governor was so pompous that he insisted that the congregation stand to honor him whenever he attended church services on Sunday. Instead of taking a seat with the congregation he sat inside the altar raid with the priests and al-colles. Specific Complaints Specific complaints repeatedly filed with the home government by natives which caused the recall of the governor were: 1—That he interfered with the Mohammeden religion which is followed by 60 per cent of the natives; 2—Sixty years ago British soldiers forced King Docimo to sign an agreement giving the colony to Queen Victoria forever. Docimo was to get a pension of $5,000 a year. His son, Prince Kojo was awarded a pension of $1,500 a year. Clifford made the Prince retire to private life and cut off his pension ignoring a petition signed by 17,000 persons which he declared was a worthless document. Received Larger Salary Natives pointed out that he had received in the past five years in salary and allowances the huge sum of $200,000, and that he entertained the Prince of Wales on his recent trip here as if the Prince had come to see him instead of the natives of the colony. 52 DIE IN 4,000 MILE CANOE JAUNT London, Eng—Four natives of a crew of 54 who set out in native canoes from Sierra Leone to paddle here were rescued by the steamship Aptam.

ATTORNEY SEES LIBERIAN SUES SCHOOL CONSUL ABROAD FOR $5,000 Bates College Debater And Afro Correspondent Is Now In Liverpool FIRST ARTICLE OF SERIES ON BIG MEN What Black Men Are Doing Abroad To Be Told Exclusively For The Afro At the beginning it might be wise to give the reader a general idea of this sketch and the ones that are to follow. Their purpose is to bring the readers of the AFRO-AMERICAN into some contact with prominent persons of color residing in England and Europe, who are on this side of the water or of their social status because there has been practically no attempt to bridge the gap of ignorance with real information. These sketches will not be minute in details but neither will they be a travesty on fact. Their simple purpose will do to give a straight-forward account of prominent colored people and to record in part their opinions on race matters. JOHN P. DAVIS With the U. S.

London, England.—In 1723 Liverpool was the first English school opening on the Spanish Main. Today Liverpool is the residence of the Consul-General of Liberia, the Negro Republic. With offices situated in Drury Build- ings, Honourable Charles E. Cooper is in charge of all Consulian affairs of Liberia with the stock of one of the oldest families of his country and is justifiably proud of his lineage. Father A Merchant Mr. Cooper is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Jessie R. Cooper, of Monroe, L.I.,伯利亚, of possible farm, Henry Cooper & Sons, Merchants & Shipowners, for over half a century—the firm of Henry Cooper & Sons is held in high esteem in this country, Great Britain, and extensive business, where the firm did extensive business. First Native Official Mr. Cooper enlisted the privilege of being the first native sent out from his country as an accredited Consular official to any parent country whose residence in Liberia was precedence. In 1906 he graduated from Liberia College, receiving the B.A. with honours, subsequently he was Consul for Spain in Monrovia (the capital City of Liberia) for a period. He was also been also accredited to the German Government as Consul-General for Germany, with residence in Hamburg, for a year, and has served in that capacity in Great Britain since 1906.

SHERRILL PROPOSES JIM CROW PARK Washington, D.C.—The establishment of a separate park for recreational activities for colored people in the District of Columbia was proposed Tuesday by Lieut. Col. Clarence O. Sherrill, in charge of public buildings and grounds, in a letter to Jesse C. Sutter, Chairman of the Citizens Advocacy Council. The letter of Col. Sherrill was written in regard to the bathing beach problem, which confronts the city since the closing of the bathing beach to white persons only in Tidal Basin. The Sherrill suggested that the old bathing beach site in Tidal Basin be reopened for white people and that separate bathing facilities be established for colored people at Jones Point, familiarly known as Buzzard Point, on the Anacostia River, east of the Army War College. It is understood that this proposed site for the establishment of a colored person formally used as a dumping ground that two sewers empty into the Anacostia River at this point. Father Pays Worcester Academy Accepted Money But Refused Admission COLLEGE PRESIDENTS AS CO-DEFENDANTS Case An Echo Of Barring Race Student From Williams Dining Hall Worcester, Mass.-An echo of the Williams college case, in which a race student of that institution alleged he was refused permission to attend the "Commons," came to light yesterday with the fluit of a suit for $5000 in Superior Court against the trustees of Worcester academy by J. Thomas Hewin, Jr., of Richmond, Va. He alleges the trustees "unjustifiably and without cause refused to receive and accept him as a student" after he had paid tuitiones and had been assigned to a room in Davis Hall. He also paid his board and lifelong half the academic year of 1923-24, he allied, and seeks damages, for his expense in preparing for the school and for clothing, travel and other items.

Williams College Doors Always Open To Race-Garfield Grady Hospital Orderlies On Strike, 32 Are Jailed Tuskegee, Ala.—Margaret Murray Washington, widow of the late educator, Booker T. Washington, was laid to rest beside the man she loved Tuesday. She was 60 years old and for the past month had been in poor health. She died at her home, "The Oaks" at 9 o'clock Thursday night. Started as Teacher Granted a Fisk graduate, came to Tuskegee as a teacher in 1889. Four years later she was married to Mr. Washington, then a widower. South's First Mother Frequently at the institute she was referred to as the "finnest mother of the south." She solved the problem of being a wife to the greatest educator of his time, mothered his children by a former marriage, bore three others, and in addition found time to direct the school's department of domestic science, and to go over with him all his public addresses. She not only approved the first epoch making address he made at the opening of the Cotton States Exposition in Atlanta, Ga., 1895, but with the three children she trip there to hear him deliver it. Accompanied Husband Subsequently she made a tour of the southern states with him in 1888 making addresses in all the larger cities under the direction of the Sister Fund, and the next year accompanied him on a three-month trip to Brownsville. "She was a mother to every girl student in the institution," was the estimate Mr. Washington placed upon her before his death. Williams College Open To R Barring of a race student from the Commons at Williams College, Williamstown, Mass., last week, led the AFRO to interview President H. A. Garfield. "First Has Williams College found its students undesirable? "Not in a larger proportion than others," answered the president: condidence or other students. Williams College has a fine tradition concerning the colored man of which it is proud and which it earnestly desires to maintain. Gen- Grady Hospita Strike, 32 Atlanta, Ga.—Thirty-two orderlies of Grady Hospital, the largest in the State, were sent to jail for 30 days each here last week. The men asked for an increase in pay from $8 to $10 per week. When their request was denied they wont on a strike. The police were called and the innocent orderlies marched to the police court where straight sentences of 30 days each were imposed. The police magistrate in passing the sentince is declared to have N. J. ELKS DESPERATE SUSPEND THREE MORE Newark, N. J.—The most significant move made by the former Pride of Newark Lodge No. 93 I. B. P. C. E. of W., since its election last Friday night has been its action in commanding to appear before it for trial on June 18th of Grand Ditshert Deputy George Peterson, Esteemed Leading Knight A. B. Brown, and John M. Shoute. This step which is regarded as a last and desperate effort by Exalted Ruler Dr. Thomas H. Wright and his following to secure revenge for the recent expose of the illegal methods under which the lodge has been operating, will without question mean that the affairs of Pride of Newark will reach their crisis in its affairs. The lodge being under definite suspension this action on its part means nothing and has no official standing. Members signing the order to appear include: Wm. H. Edwards, Wm. H.

Coolidge Telegram Read At the funeral telegrams from Women's Clubs, Educational Institutions, Tuskegee Trustees and one from President Calvin Coolidge were read at the ceremonies. Dr. Robt. R. Moton, principal, was the only speaker and told of untiring efforts which the deceased has made over time of Tuskegee during the 97 years she served here. "What a marvelous example," he said, "she was set for the womanhood, not only of the black race, but of all races and all nations, and we can rejoice in the great victory she has won through great struggles and difficulties, for she had way and from many angles, but she never swerved in her faith in God and her faith in her fellow men. Representatives from a large number of educational institutions, women's clubs and welfare organizations were among the hundreds of people who gathered for the ceremonies. oral Armstrong, the founder of Hampton, was a Williams man. In 1920 he co-founded upon Dr. Robert R. Moton the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws. "Concerning undergraduates, to speak only of instanmts within my own knowledge we have always held the door open to colored students.

ALUMNI PETITION DURKEE'S DISMISSAL Annual Commencement Gathering Takes Summary Action (Continued on Page 2) Devil and Tom Walker." He will know another time to be of cloquence, which so often hides hypocrisy. Four Situated To Go Our readers must now be prepared for a much bolder trick which is in its embryonic stage. Professors Kelly Miller, George Childers and children are to be legislate dout of office. The report of the "expert," who remained at Howard for about three days of an expected three-week stay, is for Howard's wonderful president. Before we go into the report, we want to call attention to the educational leadership of Howard, the primary for real presidents to study their own problems and make recommendations accordingly. Dr. Durkee, positively ignorant of educational matters, hired a Columbia professor at Howard University. Departments Affected The expert has recommended that the Junior College, the School of Education, the School of Contemporary Music, and the Conservatory of Music be abolished. No mention, however, is made of the student who had this quarter an enrollment of three students, with a $2,600 instructor (or causative persuasion). The School of Education is recommended to an investment of a "little white boy," as recommended to be transformed into a College of Science. Say what you will white people say, "Are they they experts" or "the experts." Miller "On The Road" The report further calls for the talent of our illustrious Dean Miller for fond second Howard and Howard so little known, the renowned Dean, who in Dr. Durke's estimation is "a contemptible puppy," and who has come and to bring in the funds that Dr. Durke was supposed to extract from the pockets of his friends. Howse and to bring in the Junior College, which was created seven years ago in Dr. Durke's romantic scheme, is to be abolished and its famous dean put on the Cook Sidetracking The writer has not been able to connect up with the plan for sldetrackting that this excessive punishment will make our genial, little friend throw up the sponge. The brutal treatment of Holmes is discussed at length in this column. This is merely another chapter. Dean Holmes' case is a case one witness has discussed at length in this column. He is Howard University, he extolled Professor Holmes' virtues in such eloquence that many of the professors thought that he an objectionable person enough it was. Professor Holmes came to Howard as Registrar. He was in such high favor that he to the dean of the School of Education followed in rapid succession. On Black List Later an alumnus taught the country, telling the alumni what an imam taught, taking so well that Dr. Durkees wanted to dispatch Dean Holmes as his "Propaganda-Missionary," to combat the Emperor. Dean Holmes declined this ambassadorship, so on the "Black List" his name went. His influence with Howard's vindictive apology for how has been at freezing point ever since. Instead of helping to improve the School of Education, Dr. Durkees has been called to choke it. We know for a fact that Dr. Durkee turned down the recommendation for the appointment of one of the best colored men in the field of edu- Professor Childers Miss Childers, whose work at Howard University is as well known as the work of the "Black List" this school year. It seems that a community in Pennsylvania requires a teacher to be a famous choir. An attempt was made by Dr. Durkes to substitute the glee club, or a band of minstrels. The details are not quite clear. Whether Miss Childers interfered or not, a United States Senator did, and the choir went. The plan now is to place her school under the band-mandarins. Manager Called For After punishing these offending members of the faculty, the report makes one of the most humorous statements for the position of a Compromiser or Manager to have charge of the running of the university while President Emmanuel Ouahou (opposes) is to go on the road for money. The reader may remember that we discussed of this Manager business, which we reported as "Vice-President." Our articles are certainly truthful, though here and there they may miss the big job at Howard University. The candidates may begin throwing their huts into the ring, though a trustee seems to have first call on this new Durkee Vs. Miller Just now we are not worried about the candidate for that $5,000 plum. We have a scheme put into execution for a short time. We could hope for no greater punishment for Dr. Durke than to give him the same platoon with Dean Kelly Miller. His eloquence matched against brains would be one short cut to his and Dean Kelly's reign, then we would remeasure for the road, we pray that they will meet on the same platform. **NOTICE TO WASH** The AFRO-AMERICAN is now Spurlock, directly from the home or **C. T. Collins** on the same platform. Call VErnon 6016 pinn report, let him listen to this. Alta campaigns for the Medical School and the University, in collaboration, with the one big drive for Howard University. On the other hand, every encouragement is to be given to the School of Religion, whatever this Oddities In Report The expert feels that there should be but one Class A College for New York University. He says that Howard is the only colored University that has the unique School of Education, yet in an breath, he calls for its elimination. But enough of this report. In the first place, no one educator should make a comprehensive survey of a group of students, three experts on the job to make decisions. Dr. Durkee will always fall into these revolutionary changes due to the fact that he is at the procedure. Men without opinions of their own are at a great disadvantage. When Dr. Durkee finishes his expert's report, there is going to be no college left. No Sound Reason As was pointed out in a recent issue of THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN, there was never any sound pedagogical reasons for the failure of these constituent schools. Ten colored professors, fought stubbornly against the execution of this scheme, but with out success. The arguments of these professors were already appeared in these columns: This fanciful scheme was merely to humiliate Dean Miller. It failed, however, to subdue him, so the trick now is to recvrt to the original plan and thus eliminate Dean Miller. This is not an illusory illustration. Dean methods, as his recommendations are notoriously punitive. He will wreck any department to "get his man." Two Changes in Eight Years Who ever heard of two revolutionary changes in seven or eight years? Howard University is making herself the big joke of the educational world. Ethnic diversity is doing seven years ago, when the ten colored professors "tried to check him, or he does not know what he is doing now. We hope that the render catches this point. Dr. Durkee's plan now is to teach seven years ago, not to bisect. Please review our article of May 30. Maybe Check Him A noted educator once recommended a general upheaval of school systems to the history of education has this college feat been attempted before. College reforms are necessarily slow. A quarrel over the use of workout equipment for working out a college reform. Dr. Durkeus's speed is dazzling. Well, we can him out of the presidency of his firm in this new outburst of temper. Obviously, the trustees, who let pass unnoticed da gross insult to the Negro race, can render no response. Dr. Durkeus recommends them for appointment, so their retention depends upon their attitude towards the one who creates them. He is not a trustee, but a board on the Board of Trustees requires the candidate to know how to say "Aye. That is the only vocabulary to this expression, he is assured a term for life. If he picks up a different expression, he will follow the instructions and Mr. Walker to an abrupt career. Feelings Runs High Feeling is running so high against Dr. Durkee's blundering administration, he elected a slate, widely hostile to Dr. Durkee. No deception was practised. They stated the situation, which many people had been told, that Durkee. They appealed for a vote that would put into motion the machinery to hire Durkee. If Dr. Durkee had either conscience or pride, he would not submit to this humiliating lashing that will continue. He would not be willing to take anything as long as that attractive check, representing almost no labor, continues to fall his job. He would not be Harvard University shall be saved. Howard Alumni Meet All Night Washington, D. C.-After an all night session, Howard University Alumni elected, Dr. Goo Frazier Miller, Episcopal priest, Brooklyn College, Winston-Salem, Justin Carter, of Harrisburg, Pa. Dr. Miller was elected upon an anti-administration platform carry-in with it a demand that the resignation be made. Shailah Durkens is president of Howard University. Neval Thomas$^a$ in a brilliant durkee speech nominated Dr. Miller. He was elected by a big majority in the Senate to dedicate tactics to prevent the vote until the early hours of the morning. Mrs. Agnes Davis-Durrah delivered a speech at a address on "The Duty of the Alumni." She urged the support of Dr. Durkee. Not only did the Alumni Association President Durkey to resign, but in order to show their feelings refused to process commencement day. G. O. P. Women Ask For Recognition Washington, D.

Producer of Business During Mr. Elder's six years with the Standard Life Insurance Company, the last two of which were in a supervisory capacity, he came to know that he was not only a producer of business but as a trainer and developer of others. Mr. Elder's has earned the highest of reputations as an insurance counselor, an administrator and a judge of men. As an important cog in the National Benefit system which the National Benefit has developed, he should reach a new level of achievement. He good deal from Mr. Elder," said Mr. Rutherford. "And," he added, "he has a record for making good on expectations." Ex-Footballer "Atlanta" Mr. Rutherford continued, "may be said to have counted on him to hold up his end, and opponents of that college were comfortable efficient in doing so, from all accounts. If this statement requires a diagram, let me show you a star end at Atlanta for four years. The American Expeditionary Force over seas looked to him for more leadership, and did not look in vain. He served the flag with distinction. These things point the measure of his capacity as a man and a leader in the military and in the field of fitness, a sound mind in a sound body appears to be exemplified in Mr. Elder. It is in the development and the training of the type that Negro business development in general may now stand judgment. The acquisition of men like Mr. Elder is a splendid thing to be able to say that a still more splendid thing to be able to say that its organization includes many of them, and that in working in its interest they are working in the interest of the Race, he concluded. C. E. Jackson "We have, for instance, in Mr. C. E. Jackson, the newly appointed manager for the Baltimore District, quite as significant a case in point," Mr. Rutherford went on. "He too is a distinguished athlete, a graduate of Virginia Union College, where he is both football and baseball. He entered the insurance profession upon graduation as an agent for Standard Insurance Company. His rise was markedly rapid. He made such a brilliant record, in fact, that within an unusually short time, the company made him District Agent of Richmond, Virginia. Frank W. Lynch, 19, 405 288 st. N.

Jackson MARRIAGES Baltimore Baltimore National C it Life Insurance Adds To Its Local Executive Officers Managers Join Big Washington Appointed Regional Super- Baltimore District Man- inary Department PRODUCERS FOR EHER NOTABLE ADDITIONS Mr] Jackson, as well as Mr. Eldar, is also a graduate of the Training Course in Life Insurance, and is a insurance adviser and a trainer of salesmen along equally sound lines. All this insures to the ultimate benefit of the public. In the case of a woman takes out insurance, he or she is entitled to, and should demand, expert advice. The fundamental benefit of insurance renders are so many and so varied, differ so widely in their range, may be made to apply to persons with particular insurance needs, and that it is not too much to say that the truly competent and honest insurance salesman is rapid in the community as the banker or the lawyer and is almost as valuable in the services he renders to the family and the family as the physician. Might-Force For Good "Insurance," said Mr. Rutherford, might-force for good. It is the bulwark of the family. It is often the foundation of individual success in life. Insurance, security peace of mind. "All of us know what a difference is made in our conduct of anything by the feeling of confidence. The circumstances should allow himself to be handicapped by the lack of the added power which a good insurance company can provide, nature, environment, and circumstances, can give him. Matter Property Pat "If he is not properly put to him, he is shown wherein this force can best be applied, if he is given the benefit of sound and honest advice, this important prosecution he will not allow himself or miss it. "Men like Mr. Jackson are not only such advisers themselves, but also such men who help in bringing their men with the same attitude and the essential training which enables them to put it into effect. This increased opportunity to choose wisely for themselves the particular form of protection they need." Mr. Rutherford paused, and added: "Mr. Jackson's middle name is 'Service.' He will welcome the opportunity to prove the good things which I have said about him. If you want to verify for you the name of your daughter, you are welcome to drop in any time at his Baltimore headquarters, 1301 Pennsylvania avenue, Baltimore. Mr. Jackson is too modest to agree with me in any explicit way, but he will make good in a more practical fashion." Wesley And Taylor Another notable addition to the National Benefit executive staff in the company is F. Taylor, another graduate of Virginia Union College, who comes to work as a producer and an able adviser. Mr. Taylor is now manager of the National Benefit Ordinary Department, where he works with headquarters at Greensboro. Morrowhouse Dean Still another is Mr. W. D. Prince, a graduate of Morehouse College, of Atlanta, Ga., and for 16 years Dean of Morris College at Sumter, South Carolina. Mr. Prince will be Manager of the Ordinary Department for South Carolina, and his wide acquaintance throughout the state plus his equipment as a student and an administrator, make his success in his new field a certainty. Made change from the National Benefit Life Insurance Company swung through 1924 in unprecedented style. It made huge gains in territory and in business. It set a new high record in achievement. With the further strengthening of its already strong staff, 1925 should be even more remarkable in durable progress. Sound Growth In executive administration, in staff organization, in a kind of leadership which combines vision with vigor and idealism with practicality, the National Benefit Life Insurance Company is a gratifying illustration of what the Negro can accomplish. Its growth is based on the soundness, economical foundations. The continuance of that growth is a matter for pride and for self-congratulation to the Race. man Rd, S. E.; Flora Catherine Spencer, S.

CONCERT SINGER WAS SIX FEET TALL AT AGE OF TWELVE Page Four CONCE PRIZE SINGER SIX FEET WHEN TWELVE Basso One Of 300 Survivors From 3000 Entrants In Ohio Eisteddfod WM. MAXWELL SIX FEET TWO Father, Brother, Father-In- Law And Brother-In-Law All Ministers Findlay, O.-William Maxwell, of this city, who won first place as bass soloist in the intercity -Elsteddfod, hold in this city in March, accomplished the commendable feat of winning a place in the finals from three hundred entrants. Three then sand singers took the preliminary tests. The singer's voice is described as being of beautiful quality and great range. His low fones are deep, rich an sonorous, the upper tones are full and resonant, and the lower tones are made of lower two octaves. The artist has perfect control and possesses the requisite presence for success in public singing. Six Feet at Ago 12 Whether a childhood affection of the thyroid glands had the effect of increasing the singers height to six feet at twelve years of age, is it possible, in which case his height, which at this writing has increased to six feet two and a half inches, that contributes to his majestic voice. Mr. Maxwell is the son of an A.M. E minister has a brother recently married to the connection and married a lady whose father and brother are both ministers. For years, the singer was a member of various church choirs. He soon became dislaughable in the various churches he lived for his singing of Spirituals. Tostl's "Good Bye" Strangely enough to say that until a year ago he had received no instruction in singing. "No, we never taught you to sing," he was asked to take a place on a church program made vacant because one of the numbers failed to appear. I sang Tortil's "Good Bye." Can you imagine an untrained voice singing "Good Bye?" Gets Teacher "At the end of the concert," he continued, "Miss Adela Kelly, a vocal teacher, told me that I had a voice of wondrous possibilities, and if I was willing she would undertake my vocal instruction. Of course I accepted, and have been told that my progress has been unusual. Fooled Teacher My instructress to whom I owe every bit of my success has been teaching voice for over thirty years, and is also director of the choir of First M. E. Church, Findlay.. In the Elsterdorf she has only had hope of my reaching the stage, but I far exceeded her expectations." My plans are to continue to teach the Kelly, and to do some concert work. I am especially desirous of adding the spirituals to my repertory. Teacher Praises Miss Kelly's opinions of her pupils are as flattering as, the scholars. She says in part: "Careful and skilled cultivation is being imparted to the under count and fully equal to the demands made by concert programs." Glycs Recital On June 1st the artist gave a recital at First M. E. Church, Finding, Burleigh's "Just You." Will Murray's "Mind and Body" and group of spirituals arranged by Burleigh, and Flogler, the French composer's "Horn" were on the program. The latter was Mr. Maxwell's prize-winning song at the theatrical premiere of Davis's accompanist and Mrs. A. C. Stillberger, reader, assisted. Pape rSpeaks The Morning Republican, Findley's local daily said, "William J. Maxwell, basso, gave a recital of high quality here last evening." Other reviewers speak in equal, terms of the artist's ability. Warmack's Band Always Busy All accounts being uncolored Warmack's Singing Syncopators seem to be the "Welf's beat" out around Cleveland, Ohio. Warmack came to Cleveland from Dayton 4 years ago and was engaged at the Royale Inn. After a shot at the Chinese restaurants he went to the Lake Shore Gardens.

Hate Film Barred Columbus, Ohio-Stampling the "Birth of A Nation," as untrue to history, that it appealed to race prejudice and a portral of crime, the Supreme Court barred the picture from Ohio.

THE WEARY BLUES By Langston Hughes Droning a drowsy syncopated tune, time. Rocking back and forth to a mellow croon. loving, Nero play. Down on Lenox Avenue the other right night By the pale dull pallor of an old gas light He did a lazy sway..... He did a lazy sway..... To the tune othose Weary Blues. With his ebony hands on each ivory key He made that poor piano moan with melody. O Blues! Swaying to and fro on his rickety stool He played that sad raggy tune like a musical fool. Sweet Blues! Coming from a black man's soul black. Buses: In a deep long voice with a melan- dic voice. I heard that Negro sing, that old plano moan— 'Ain't got nobody in all this world, Ain't got nobody but ma self. Ain't got nobody in all this world, And put my troubles on the shelf. Thump, thump, thump, went his foot on the floor. He played a few chords then sang And I wish that I had died. And fat in the night he crooned at the thigh. The stars went out and so did the moon. The singer stopped playing and went to bed While the Weary Blues echoed thru his head. He slept like a rock or a man that's dead. ro.

Leo speaks of the most welcome odor that "IGN." Leo Edwards, the Baltimore comedian, has just returned to town after a 13 months tour of the South. Leo says that as far as he could observe most of the sections of Dixio are "not so good" for Negroes. He recited at length the refusal of conductors to stop their cars for the remittance of colored passengers, the flithness and other non-accommodations of "Jim Crow" coaches, and the general "cussedness" of inhabitants of the rural sections. One illuminating sight he witnessed was the nightly and often daily parade of the "Koo Koo" Klan. Professional accommodations allowed him while on four with the white company with which he travelled were extremely humiliating. For instance being obliged to dress and make up in the engine room, not being permitted to travel on the company's private car, but often obliged to get up in the early morning hours to catch a train arriving. Camden, El Dorado, and Warren Arkansas he says are the last word in genuine "lowdownness." In the latter towns he was informed that no "nigger" papers were permitted on the news stands. Our informer also told of one theatre in which the white sat in front on upholstered chairs at 256 a throw, while the colored folks were marooned on a few bent on trying to prove that Edward had nothing but praise for the treatment accorded him by the colored people with whom he came, in contact, and said that most of the ill-treatment of Negroes by white was done in the outlying schools.

The recipient of honor is a former Baltimore and an Alumnus of Morgan Attorney Geo. W. F. McMeen, first Morgan College graduate, made a masterly speech pre- liminary to theatrical award. The speech recounted the accom- pishments of Mr. Gibson in the business world, emphasizing the business plus preserver-ward would always win as exemplified by the suc- cess of the theatrical man. Case School $5,000 Recently Mr. Gibson donated 6000 to his alma mater for the establishment of a chair. His name has been frequently mentioned as being considered for the Board of Trustees. It was evident that the tenor of the degree was fully appreciated by the Alumnus. First Theatre After leaving Baltimore, Mr. Gibbons purchased Philadelphia as the city in which he should seek his fortune. For several years he engaged in varying occupations, and by thrift accumulated capital sufficient to purchase the North Pole, a small moving picture house on South St. Purchases Standard Soon afterward he purchased the Standard, formerly a Jewish Theatre, also on South Street. This house has never enjoyed any degree of prosperity under the various promoters in whose hands it had been. Under the capable handling of the present owner the business flourished, and today enjoys a white-colored façade, assisted by a similar theatre in the country. He is a member of the Chamber of Commerce and Board of Trade.

The party left for Philadelphia in the evening. Mrs. Gibson who is one of her husband's most consulted advisors, did not come to the city. The couple reside on a large suburban estate outside of the city, and they are on the show places of the state. Mr. Gibson is believed in many quarters to have amassed a fortune, estimated to be close to the million mark, from his various investments. He also gives liberally to charity.

WONDERLAND Old Man Weather sent the mercury on the glass tube of the thermometer and the crowds down to Wonderland Park on last Sunday. At 1 o'clock pleasure-seekers fairly swamped No. 6 cars, and at 10 p.m. they still came in ever increasing numbers. The crowds seemed pleased. The customers were buying amusement, hot dogs, soft drinks, etc. The attendance was estimated by the management to run well into four figures. The most bored person on the reservation was the lone policeman on duty there who had nothing to do so orderly were the patrons. The customers only kept on having a well ordered family park, and they are justified. Stewart Frazier, Larry Fisher and innumerable other concession men seem quite contented with the 'takings' of the day. The Sunday dances, begun at midnight, are equalling the attendance at Manager Purvance, who is now in charge for the season. A novelty is introduced each night. 0 Street Fairs Profitable One of the most astute fair men in this section of the country and who makes his home in this city lamentes the fact that organizations here and promoters seem so indifferent to the possibilities for profit for both in conducting street carnivals with legitimate concessions. He pointed out that the were more mature on the door men who would gladly "pitch" here is assured to a return for their investment of time and money. Local Girl On Keith Time Hamtret Harrington and Cora Greene late of "Dixie to Broadway" have returned to vaudeville as a team. They opened recently at the Hippodrome, New York City.

They are a philanthropic bunch too; but as baseball players, well, the convict's team at Sing Sing prison defeated the team headed by Iral Moby with a score of 5-1.

Irving Miller's name on billing is equivalent to that of Madam Walker on beauty preparations. Mr. Miller has lioned his name and has constructed for hot weather demands and being presented for the week. Nothing pretentious but entertaining to the last flicker. Auro Greeely, Gallie Gaston, Lily Yuen and other principals combine to love them over they and their co-laborers in the chorus succeeding in the demonstrative delight of the cash customers. Irving C. did not appear during the evening, quite unusual indeed, but his hands were excellent for the performance of his hired boys and girls, scenery, and tastfulness of wardrobe. The hotel "bit" was again removed from storage, and succeeded in tracing guffaws by the capable of the propleters role by Gallie Gaston. The inevitable "Charleston" was done according to a new version. The Miller conception delight the audience by demanding many repitations. A five piece jazz band furnished the music for this number and played two of the original tunes on Tom Hillary of the house orchestra played carp for the latter. Present plans are to continue Miller and his company here for quite a "spell". Subsequent production being up to this weeks all will be well. The Monsooning Cooling apperatus was brought into use night. The system withdraws the heated air and replaces it with fresh air from the outside. Attendance seemed to be but little affected by hot weather on Monday night. Another tabloid musical company is being presented here by the "Dad" James' Company who are playing their second date here within two weeks. The miniature musical goes just as strong. With the customers as the one produced before. Eleanora Johnson and "Dad" James are well equipped with good effect. Willie Too Sweet scored with parallels and a monologue. Two other comics, best of all-around performers, won their spurs and genuine applause for their activities. We repeat that this is one of the best balanced companies playing the time, one that it would pay any others touring the circuit to emulate. Due doubtlessly, to the hot weather, attendance was somewhat below normal here on Monday afternoon, although the interior was cooler than outside. CIGARETTE CAUSED FIRE Wildwood, N.

Heat And Tennis We do not have to draw much on the analogue to see the plausibility Gerald Patterson from down under the sun of Australia won the world's title as the best living tennis player. Norton F. Wilding, of England, from the same English colony had done it before as well as their late countryman, Anthony F. Wilding. Norton F. Wilding, of England, to William T. Tilden 2nd, the American who first won the coveted championship on grass was scholled and baked in south Africa as an English, overseeing "Billy" Johnston and Maurice McLaughlin, two of America's world champions. No man, came from California, the land of perpetual sunshine.

But there has been only one other Nordic, and it will be a long time until another visits America, while only last week an unknown Negro school-boy ran thirteenth in a 10-mile race with 800 other starters. Big hands, long arms, and long legs are essential in dog tennis, indiscriminate powers and versatile minds. Like Dehart Hubbard, the Negro possesses, going out and equally the world's 100 yard dash record after bowing only by inches to another world's record, held by a fellow member of the darker race. Daring Makes Champions Our athletes have daring like, William H. Lewis, of Boston, who bolted the Republican party (when your drives won't work try your volleyes is good tennis tactics) and they have cunning and an uncanny vision, patiently waiting to seize the opportunity like A. L. Jackson, the Harvard athlete new general manager of the greatest weekly in the world. The Japanese have these mental qualifications, the ability to play in the hot sun but they seem to lack the height, stature, reach and sturdy physique. If偡寔ency in the tennis world is to be wrested from the white man, we are compelled to look to the black man, the African man, to be by the American Negro or the West Indian.

The automobile described as a Buckt touring car stripped of number plates and other means of identification. The masked hand called at the home of Mrs. Doila House, who had received several warnings to leave the town. The warnings were signed "Knights of the Ku Klux Klan." The first warning was issued immediately after a Klan demonstration was held in Franklin several months ago. Others have followed intermittently. One of the men who came to her door last night and told her that he wanted her to go to the court house to "see about those warnings."

Two big innings, one in each game, founded the death knell for the Black Sox in the Eastern League race when Oscar Charleston and his Quaker team from Harrisburg. Pa.. set the Sox on the rear end of both games of their double header last Sunday at Mary hurd Park, 2-1, and 5-1. Nearly 5,000 hot, perspiring fans viewed the contest from the sidelines and attempted to drown the din made The games were lost not because the Sox did not play ball, but the favorites were simply outplayed by the Brewers. A Houner. Things went along nicely in the first game until McClure weakened in the first Giants' Giantant doubled over the first pitch when Seilbreit scored when Seilbreit threw wide. McClure famed Charleston. Cannady hit a homer in right field bleaches scoring Bison. He took the rubber in the sixth and pitched a masterly game. "Britty" held the hard hitting invaders to three bangles of the serrated rubber in the fifth and had to be relieved by Clark behind the bat. The Sox ruled to take advantage of their big opportunity in the ninth when they had a chance to win or at least to score. They gave a free ticket and promptly stole second. "Babe" Wilson got to first on Cannady's tumble, but was out sterling. The Brewers' sendoff follows across the rubber for the first Sox tally. "Heavy" Johnson singled. "Cark made first on Shackleef" error which filled the bags with Leonard was struck out by Giseman and Day was retired at first. "Little Jeff" stared on but later overcooperated with backward batters of Burreney's foul out third. A Big Inning The second game was a repetition of the first, one prowling in the fifth to shatter the hopes of the locals. The Harrisonburg clan jumped on Strong in the painful inning and bain. Strong four runs. Again "Reliable" Britt was called on to stop the onslaught. Although doing double duty, "Brutty" held the ball for four innings, saving the Sox a shut out defeat. Another golden opportunity was lost to the Sox in the eighth when the bats were headed and knocked back. Holloway tied to Dixon, who made a perfect throw home, catching Leonard before he could cross the plate. Alphonse Allen Starred In Philly Hi School Meet Philadelphia, Pa.—Alphonso Allen, a pupil of the West Philadelphia High, was the outstanding star in the junior contest of the Philadelphia High School. Allen surprised many by finishing ahead of Millman, white, of Northeast High, in the 100-yard dash in 10-2. Millman, instead of Aleph, made a close loss, finished third-yard behind Ellerson, another colored chap from Southern. Aleph duplicated his ability in the thirty minutes later by four yards. Again Ellerson was second and Millman third. Judging from the manner Allen ran in the heiward that he will receive for competing in the Varsity "Quads" Monday and Tuesday.

R FOR MEN M. to 8:30 P. M. bon The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly SPORTS MIRROR BY AFRO SPORTS EDITOR The Black Sox ended, the week of June 7th, hanging on to third place bya glim margin, with that grand old man of baseball, John Henry Lloyd, and his Seaside outfit crowding the Baltimore team, for STRONG-AND MUNGIN, BEST PITCHERS Outside of Strong and Mungin, the pitching staff of the Sox has usually shown any exceptional ability. Unfortunately Britt was used in the infield the first of the season which drew him off his wrist in a game of 11. If he had not other position this year, by July Britt ought to be one of the Sox's best bets. Jeffries, the only southpaw, has failed to show impressive form, and had not been able to win games against the reputation established in Florida last winter as a no-hit-no-run artist. Force won his first game for the Cuban Stars but twirling against the Cubans is no indication that he is a great pitcher. The Islanders got eight hits and scored three runs and only errors kept them from winning. In Rojo and Clark, the Sox have a pair of receivers that are hard to beat and it is an undisputed fact that Rojo is superior to anything in his position. He has not tailed in pennants in pegging as Rojo has all the earrings in our great catcher. Little improvement can be made in the outfield. Some fans are prone to getting injured while playing in the outfield or more home runs this season. The ability to field all and hit safely in pinches stamps a man as a good ball player. Johnson is exceptionally fast for a big man and can hit a lot of balls in baseball. His pinches stamps are needed one of his best points. Leonard has come within his own in the last few games. The slump the first part of the season has given way to a rally that is one of his sensations of halldom. At the rate he is going now he will be leading the circuit in batting at the end of the season, and he has not been in of in Holloway, although he hasn't been hitting his standard in the last three games. Speed is one of his main assets and he is a master in the art of base running. In the infield we have Jeffries on third. He can be dismissed with a stroke of the pen or typewriter, "Little Jeff" is a worthy successor to Blackmon, and as a lead off man he can be runked in the same class with Wade, Johnston of the Kansas City Monarchs. We can pass up first as "Rabe" Wilson is an institution on the initial sack. He is all that can be desired as a fielder and butter. The fans has ways expect the impossible of Wilson and in nearly every instance he has managed to live up to their estimation. The fans have been working with the smoothness which it is qualified. Day has the ability to make a comparatively easy play look hard and has a tendency to play to the stands. These spectacular plays look all right when they work but the same fans who are shouting applause one minute are bouting decision the next when he faltof field a really grounder. Every one says if he hadn't been playing to the stands he would have been dead. Always a weak batter, Day gives the impression of carelessness when facing the pitcher. If he hits it is no more than expected, if struck out or pops up their pitcher, he is not expected. He is not muscled and they expect the most of a player at all. The favorite and idiot today will find himself; facing thumbs down tomorrow when he falls to appraise the desires of theick public. Managing it is not easy, and it looks like the managerial reins are weighing heavy on the shoulders of the youngest leader in baseball. "Beck" is a conscientious hard worke and he is always in a game to win. Over anxious to bring a winning team to Baltimore may prove detrimental to the Sox. The team's defense might be better off letting the bats ought to be on the bench studying the game and the players. One man injured in the infield would throw the whole team out of gear. The Sox manager has been in a slump for the last three weeks and whenever "Beck" fails to get a homer a week something radically wrong. In order to finish in one of the first three positions this year the Sox will need two or three more players and the stop in order to give the team a chance to play better. Then there will be an improvement in the inner works of the Sox. Rufus Tankin, pupil of E. Earl Johnson, Olympic star and champion 19-miller, won the Memorial Marathon classic in Pittsburgh on Dec. In commenting on the performance of Tankin, Johnson said, "Tankin never saw a track until about 26 months ago. Tankin was serr man him in his event with R. E. Brown, former intercollegiate two mile and cross country champion." In Tilley, another Race lnd from the mill won the 880-yard handicap. This was Rilley's first race and he was given a handicap of 30-words. Colored youths have already established themselves as short distance runners. De Hart Hubbard set the fashion this spring in track. "Hubbard is in track what the Paris dressmakers are to style. The Michigan star said a spring jump is the best way to get the dashes, and every track man this year is concentrating on dashes. In every meet the men in the short dashes the spot light, if Hubbard says jump, the all jump. Coaches in all the big universities are waiting with abated breaths for next year's edit from the lips of the Western head coach. The event shall be the style and then the head coach and excels all others. However a number of sport writers have advanced the theory that Race youths do not have the nerve and stamina to run any distance over 440. The performance of Tankim and Kiley easily explodes this theory, first race. And two years ago while the other was in his first race. And both won. Johnson himself one of the greatest runners of distances of all times is another argument, proving the infallency of prejudiced writers. To come nearer home, we have in Baltimore, in John Carroll the making of a distance runner of no mean ability. Carroll's track record had been confined to local meet until this spring he made his appearance in the Howard meet competing against Parker, one of the best- two-milers in the country. Carroll ran second only to Parker. "Colored coaches are losing a wonderful opportunity," said Johnson, "to advance our cause when they send athletes to the various meets held prepared, is more to running a race than shooting a gun and telling a boy selves while the coach sits on the sideline and attempts to look wise to run. We have boys taken to a meet, turned loose to shift for them. Where to address and how to take advantage of the particular truck." THAT'S some mentor will try to hawk the boys out when they fail to cop first place in every event they are entered. "Do as I say and not as I do," he's his favorite expression. The man of the gym is out of the door of the gym. The good guy. He is more interested in the first day of the month than the welfare of his charges.

Thousands of fans are frankly disappointed in the performance of the Sox this year, as the Monumental team hasn't shown the brand of baseball they are capable of. Errors have played a prominent part in most of the games and it is rumored that that gay white lightings are also responsible for rather than the number of several of the players. In nearly every game the Sox have played the role of "From The Sublime To The Ridiculous." At times Beck's boys will bring the fans to their feet with superplays that equal anything in the big circuits and just as suddenly these same players will deliberately throw back to some with some of the most stupid backlash imaginable.

FLOWERS DEFEATS MALONE IN TENTH Chicago, Ill.—By winning eight rounds out of ten, Tiger Flower, middleweight of Atlanta, won the decision over Jack Malone, white, in a ten-round fight in East Chicago, Ind., Friday night. All but knocked out in the seventh, Flowers staged a rally that swept the St. Paul, Minn. fight to follow his advantage for the finish, but Flowers quickly recovered. In the semi-final, Charley Anderson, heavyweight, knocked out Walt Bill Reed, white, of Columbus, Ohio, in the seventh round after having better of every round but the first. GODFREY SOUNDLY WALLOPS RENAULT San Francisco, Cal.-George Godfrey, Philadelphus, on the day he joined Renault, of Canada, Saturday after ten rounds of fighting that was marked by much clinching. He also fought the best of the argument throughout the going. Godfrey is contemplating several important matches on the construit team, when credit is due, let it be given. Godfrey did beat Renault without question. The Lone Horseman of Quebec and on two occasions the Black Shadow flirted a right hand that unscathed him. The knock-downs came in the close and Godfrey brought in a punch to the stomach that brought the Canadian down. Canadian defense begged for a referee claiming a low punch. This was disallowed and Godfrey charged his foe and had him on the floor again, before he begged for a down. Before he could take a count the bell ended the hostilities. Inasmuch as Rennault holds two tires out, it was surprising to the fans to find Godfrey on the long end of the tearing, when they stepped on the rig.

In commenting on the fight in the Wiltz Furton, in the first two rounds Fulton did fairly well. Wills was just feeling him out. Furton landed one or two light hits on the boat on the third round had hardly gotten under way when Wills hit Fred with left and right. Fred seemed to be looking for a position on the boat on the third round. Close Wills was right to the heart which crumpled the plasterer. As the lengthy whitewasher started to crumble, Fred was out weighed 24 to 21, sent over a fast right which hit Fred on the chin as he was dropping. I could have counted a million and he never would have hit the after the fight was over Fred abused me something terrible. He would have beaten the Negro, as I let Henry hold Fred's right under his left arm when he socked away with his right.

It pays to buy the best. It costs less in the long run. Every cup is delicious. WILL DIRECTLY FORBADE COLOR DISCRIMINATION By Paul Winchester Manager The Marylander Trust funds specifically allocated to an orphan institution where 400 children of this class should be housed and educated have been perverbed to other uses and a very large portion of the work of that institution is devoted to other purposes than the donor intended. The late John Hopkins provided in his will that the large estate which he left should be used for the benefit of the people of Ealtimore where he made all his money. The hospital shall be for the indigent sick of this city and its environs, without regard to age, sex or color . . . and the poor of this city and state of all races . . . shall be withhold out charge. A limited number of patients may be received, who are able to make compensation. The money thus . . . will enable you to appropriate a larger sum for the relief of the sufferings of that class which I direct shall be admitted Mr. Hopkins intended the hospital for the poor—for the indigent sick of all races and colors, and for the poor in the poor portion of the work of the institution is not devoted to the relief of the class the endowment was intended to meet—and this part of the institution has been perverted from the start. Eudowed Orphan Home He also provided for the erection and endowment of an institution for the reception, maintenance, and the education of four hundred orphan colored children. Inquiry fails to find that such an institution of four hundred orphan colored children, one of the favorite objects of the Hopkins charity failed, and the wishes of the donor were totally disregarded. There is only one conclusion to be drawn after going over all the contemporary records, the Hopkins will letter, and the wishes of the Trustees of the estate, and all other evidence, and to examine what had been done, and that is that the entire Hopkins Trust has been perverted, and that the wishes of the greatest of Maryland philanthropists have been utterly disregarded, have been treated with scorn and contempt and have been thrown into the discard. The record of the credit of the City and State that this great wrong has been allowed to go unchallenged by the authorities, and the people. Dr. McNeill Lectures Dr. O. W. H.

ALTO WILLIAMS WINS IN COURT OF APPEAL Right To Retain Home Upheld After Six Successive Trials FORMER OWNER SOUGHT TO CHANGE CONTRACT Many Have Lost Their Homes Through Similar Sharp Practices Sharp practices on the part of certain white real estate dealers to ficee would-be owners of homes came to light several weeks ago. Also Williams, 24, did Hilliard his attorney, Jallus Robinson, white was granted a court decision against David Waller, white. The court action was brought when Waller, who on August 15, 1923, entered into a contract with Williams to sell him his residence on the avenue. According to the terms of the contract, Williams was to pay $14 per week until the purchase price was liquidated. After Williams had made a number of payments, the original owner believed he thought he could obtain more for the property. Changed Rent Forms Williams' suspicion was aroused when the collectors changed the form of his rent so as to read "for rent." Following this they gave him notice to move at a certain date to a different place. The case was then taken into People's Court on ejection proceedings where Williams won out. I was then taken to the City Court where it was set forth by the original owner that the contract was a rental instead of a purchase one. It was finally reached the Court of Appeals after a total of six trials where it was decided in Williams' favor on April 2nd. A large number of people who saw out to buy homes have lost their homes and especially when they have defaulted once or twice in their weekly payments. Attorney Julius P. Robinson, white, who defended Williams, told a retorter of the AFRO-AMBI-110 that the court clearly that contracts of this kind cannot be set aside with impunity. Mr. Robinson was also attorney for James Hines, blind war veteran who was accused of criminal assault upon a minor several months ago.

For several years the professor has devoted his time to collecting funds to swing the program. He declared that his plan consisted of five distinct features but the judge refused to let him explain why he had been sentenced to the jury.

BRIDE AND BROOM IN ROUGH SLEDDING Lonack Again Into Court Following Altercation With Landlady That the course of true love never did run smooth is further demonstrated in the case of Mr. and Mrs. James Lonack, who, not more than settled their marital trouble with his mother-in-law, than they find themselves back into the arm of their wife an altercation with their landlady. Two weeks ago, James found it necessary to appeal to the police to get possession of his 16 year old bride who was being withheld from him by her mother. The mother, Mrs. M. Eater, had refused to the cloiment and threatened to have the marriage annuled on the grounds that her daughter was under age and that Lonack refused to come to terms with her. The court patched the matter up by effecting a reconciliation and the pair went to live with Mrs. Annie Green 25 years later with whom Lonack boarded before his marriage. Here trouble started afresh. According to the young bride, Mrs. Green began at once to make slurring remarks and when on Monday night she resented them, an alteration took place in which the woman said to have done considerable hair and throwing of milk bottles. When the case was brought to court they were again dismissed with advice of the magistrate to seek quarters where there would be more peace and harmony.

WELFARE AGENCIES WAR ON IMPOSTORS Investigation Of Activities Of ten Show Amazing Credul- ity Of Public RECORD OF "BISHOP J. J. HIGGS EXPOSED Man Arrested Here Some Time ago Back Again With -Money Scheme Continual war on imposters who fleece the busy man and women of money for this, or that cause, was revealed last week when the Family Welfare and The Urban League exposed the U.S. Navy's J. Higgs who claims to be the head of the Modern Educational And Religious Bureau. The bishop set up, business at 512 McMechen street and accompany d two young women, was seized by the Navy and gave live television. His activities, however, come to light when he appealed to the Association of Commerce who referred him to the Family Welfare Department of City Charities. They in turn called upon R. Maurice Loss, of the city, to Maurice Loss, who made an investigation and found that the bishop had been arrested in 1915 for begging on the streets and had served a prison term for vagrancy. He claims to represent an institution in Washington, D. C., and to be raising funds for the same. Further investigation showed that no record of funds had been kept and that the bishop is seldom seen about the institution, being away most of the time collecting funds. The Family Welfare as well as the Urban League is anxious to break up promiscuous giving in view of the fact, that much money is thus wasted upon unworthy affairs.

BEAUT BEAUTIFUL HOME SITES LOTS CLEAR OF ALL INCUMBRANCES Investigations by Reputable Business Men reveal facts that Title to Property is Guaranteed by Big Title Insurance Company. Mizpah, Atlantic County, N. J.—An innovation in Mizpah, N. J., is being undertaken which by far transcends anything that has ever been planned in this section of the country, and it is being planned with a spirit to help ameliorate the condition of colored people who are migrating North in large numbers because of prevailing conditions in Dixie, coupled with an exigency which has arisen by reason of labor shortage in the North. The Founder of the idea is Mr. N. Rathblott, formerly the sole owner of the Developments, namely, Mizpah; Newtonville and Elwood Square, N. J., which under date of October 2, 1924, was incorporated under the State Laws of New Jersey, in the name of the N. Rathblott Development & Realty Company, of which Mr. Rathblott is now President and Treasurer. In an interview with Mr. Rathblott, he informed the writer that his purpose for offering the property for sale to colored people is the sequal of the crowded conditions in large cities, which works-imposition upon those who hope to make the North their permanent home. Being a Real Estate man of much experience, Mr. Rathblott has gained first hand information from the itinerants that are migrating Northward, in quest of freedom and better wages, and finds that their chief grievances are the lack of proper accommodations for themselves and families and inflated house rents. Feeling that he would render invaluable service to those who wished to become home owners and make small profit for himself, beautiful Mizpah, New Jersey, was placed on the market with the hope of it becoming strictly a colored town patterned after Mound Bayou, Miss., and Boley, Okla. Among a number of letters sent to the AFRO-AMERICAN by persons who had purchased building lots in Mr. Rathblott's development is the following: "We take this means of expressing our thanks to the delegation of ministers and the Chamber of Commerce at Stanford, Conn., who have shown their interest in order to protect the people from being cheated or defrauded. "We are fully pleased with our own purchase, but this protection makes us more safe. "Thanking you again, (Signed) Rev. J. F. Turner." ```markdown ``` HONG KONG Electric Power House at Mlzpah # 1. 什么是区块链? 区块链是一种基于区块链技术的数字货币系统,它利用区块链技术将数字资产从一个节点传递到另一个节点,并通过共识机制确保所有节点都遵守相同的规则。区块链具有去中心化、不可追溯、不可篡改等特点,使得数字资产的安全性和可信性得到保障。 Investigation Shows: that all properties belonging to the N.

Edward Biemiller, white, instructor for a local automobile dealer, delivered himself of the following this week in daily press: "A colored man is an apt pupil in learning to run a car. Old say he is 15 per cent quicker than a white man of same age." As an individual experience, Mr. Biemiller's views are testing, but as a generalization they are undoubtedly endless. All factors considered, a colored man takes about same time to learn to run an auto as any other race. No sooner, no slower. This statistics business has to be rightly interpreted lest sorts of superiority and inferiority complexes be deducted. Mr. Biemiller has gotten hold of a bright group of colored so far, let him beware, the next group may not be quite mart. The question of permanent all-year-round playgrounds crowded colored sections of the city ought to engage the attention of civic organizations as well as the Park Board. Under the new President, William I. Norris, the board levitating its attention to the urgent need of new play spaces in the city. It, to all appearances, is willing to do its duty, on the other hand, aside from the request to place a playground in Perkins Square, not a single move has been made to urge the establishment of permanent playgrounds in other sections. Additional space is needed adjacent to the Dunbar school in East Baltimore and to the Laurens Street School, p. 112 on Laurens Street, in West Baltimore. It is the duty of the neighborhood associations in these sections as well as the parent-teachers associations to take steps to secure the needed play spaces. Asked this week why dressing rooms of the stadium were be closed during the school pageant, necessitating girls wearing their costumes to the place or dressing in one end of the bowl, Mr. Norris declared, no request had been made to have the dressing rooms available. Unless the neighborhood associations are intelligently active in urging the park board to provide play grounds, there little likelihood of getting them. Anything worth having worth asking for. Was a relatively simple matter beside the problem of who is responsible for the new $400,000 bath house dedicated in Harlem last week. Dr. Charles H. Roberts, Republican, former alderman of the district, in his address declared he introduced the measure which resulted in the erection of the bath house. Civil Service Commissioner Ferdinand Q. Morton, Tammany leader, who followed, declared that Tammany and Tammany alone did it. Commissioner Martin Healey backed him, declaring that only $100,000 was available at first and Tammany put up the balance. Both of these later gentlemen are Democrats. There followed another ex-Alderman, George W. Harris, Republican, who put forward the claims of the G. O. P. There is no telling how much interest the audience attached to this political pow-wow on a sweltering night when cold water is preferable to hot air, but with Alderman Harris we are forced to admit that the new bath house is another monument to the liberty, fraternity and equality of Father Knickerbocker. Certainly there is also evidence that both parties are anxious to serve the interests of their constituents when at election time those constituents are in turn willing to forsake the precedents of two generations and split the vote between them. Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, attempting to establish a Pan-African Congress where colored folk of the world will meet and discuss racial welfare, and Marcus Garvey with his vision of Africa for the Africans, are but yet voices crying in the wilderness. Nevertheless rumbles from South Africa recently attest the fact that the echoes at least have been heard there. Bastards in Southwest Africa staged a serious revolt, which required the presence of troops. Natives in Bloom, fontaine staged an outbreak which shook the foundations of the Cape colony, founded as it is on the theory of white supremacy and native segregation. At several points there were national conferences of non-European elements all shouting the same cry; more recognition, better treatment, association with the East Indians, the Japanese, and the Negroes of America in order to compel concessions from the whites.

Child Accidents And Play Spaces At the Colonial Hospital on N. Mount street, Monday afternoon in space space space, few children, four children, were taken (followed by dents which occurred while they were playing in the streets. During the summer months when children are in the maximum number of children, the toll of malnutrition, the mutilated children mount to great proportions. CHILDREN MUST PLAY AND AUTOMOBILES MUST USE THE PUBLIC HIGHWAY. There is but one way to deal with children, this, however careful driver might be, is to prevent children from playing in streets where vehicles must pass. Since play in child life is as important as care for adult life, the only rational solution is to provide proper play spaces. Have you ever thought what is meant to have the life of a child in space space space, however chance to live? Killing men and women who have had their full opportunity in life is a serious enough matter, but mutating, malning and killing children, is unparalleled. What does it matter if play spaces cause a little noise; what does it matter if they cost millions; what does it cost a group of people in this world a right to live and strive for except to provide communities where children can properly grow? Schools (themselves, the need of open places where children may play, is the city's first consideration. What We Know About Religion To take issues with such a venerable thinker and writer as the Rev George F. Bragg, Jr., would in life attempt to make sure so on a question touching the fundamental faith of the fathers at most approaches rashness. A recent issue that a child two years of age knew practically as much about the world beyond as grown-ups do, we made a statement that, in the Rev Mr. Bragg to the contrary notwithstanding. Those who confuse actual knowledge with faith are a wayy apt to misunderstand the truth of our minds the best thing about our religion is its element of blind and unwavering faith. In exchange, men should be allowed with human certainty to take an actual peek behind curtains that separate us from the spirit aboard our present religion would WE BELIEVE and have FAITH, but we do not KNOW. This is why the mother is powerless in the wearing toil, can sing a vision of Heaven into her soul.

Those who have followed the program from the beginning and other points South must agree that a wonderful change has come over that section. A man was given a thirty year prison term for participating in a mob mutilation. In Florida and other states men been sentenced and finally convicted about the business of breaking it up. A white man down in Abbeyville, S. C. they actually convicted a white man for murdering a man. Only a few years ago a mob actually drove an able school principal out of Abbeyville between sunrise and sunset girls in his school to aspire to succeed higher than nursing white babies. After they burned down the school, reacting to death several of the innocent students sleeping there. Not only in the school, but in the few whites who frowned upon them, but they cut souvenirs from their victims to show their children, that other seeds of When, therefore, you recall the above conditions in connection with recent determined and serious efforts of the United States to some idea of the changes which have taken place there. When the N. A. C. A., the press and authorities in army against lynching, it seemed but a feeble effort fitted against a hundred-headed monster. The archvets who continued to march around Jericho and blow their trumpets until its walls crumbled, these agencies kept up the fight. Their voices echoed from State legislatures, from Congress and even from European centers of public opinion where proud American amuricans were written across the brows as America was branded as a hand of arrocities. But than the blood-soaked Belgium Congo was this; blacker than Jewish pogroms in Russia, because this was supposed to be "the free and the home of the brave." One clear and honest voice wailing incessantly in the cause of right would rear down the mistlethood obstruction. The organized and intelligent fight of the N. A. A. C.

PROFESSOR FUDGE PROFESSOR FUDGE AMOS HOKUM SAYS June, Month Of Brides And Graduates June is the month of brides and graduates. Such an interesting and complicated subject as brides is just a little bit too heavy for this column, but it is worth giving to graduates and educational institutions. Of educational institution we have had for some time in Baltimore two colleges, Clayton Williams University and Clayton Williams University. It appears Clayton Williams University, a school backed by the Baptist or rather not backed sufficiently by the Baptist, has enough to reach the commencement of nineteen and twenty-five. With Morgan College it is different. This college was founded some years ago by the Methodists, but for some years it was supported than supported by the Methodists. Morgan College Confers Degrees Lately, however, the important developments have taken place in the life of this institution. When it had been built in 1905, it was building on Edmundson avenue to a location out by Hillen road it began to get plenty of action. From year to year more "dough" was slipped into the building and served for duty. Today the institution is well located and is flourishing like a green bay tree. People who in the past spoke of it with contempt now speak of it as our Morgan College. Such is life. Being a College, Morgan had to have its graduation exercises. These exercises were held on Thursday, June the 16th, and the faculty graduated. More than this, several announcements were made concerning the betterment of the financial inter-mental relations. One hundred and fifty of money was vouchsafed, several other smaller contributions were announced. As an added attraction some honorary degrees were conferred. The recipients of these honorary degrees were: John Trusty Gibson, doctor of law; George E. Curry, Joseph Henry, professor of law; Henry Nutter and Charles Albert Tindley, doctors of divinity. As you probably noticed, the name of Abu Ben Adam, led all the rest, even if it was not in a book of gold, even Mr. John T. Gibson, doctor of laws is by birth a Marylander. He immigrated to Philadelphia some years ago and is now a professor. I remember Mr. Gibson from some years back. At that time he had something on Mat Henson, the only civilized man now living who has ever visited the North Pole. I only visited the North Pole. John T. Gibson was at one time the proprietor of the North Pole. Mat Henson visited was cold, the North Pole Gibson was the proprietor of was hot at all times. Henson's North Pole is at the top of the world. Gibson's North Pole was in the picture purported to be moved picture purported always packed to seafloor. However, the building inspector of Philadelphia came to the conclusion that the North Pole is enough, so years before the government invented the "padlock" the inspector "padlocked" the Philadelphia city. Gibson looks for another climate, so shortly thereafterwards he found a different atmosphere on South street. He secured what the Standard is made it got. The words of the strut, he made it got. A Genius In Theatrical Management Mr. Gibson not only secured the Standard Theatre, but also secured what was considered by his clientele some high class talent to work behind It is a truism to say that the man who gives more value than the letter of his contract calls for, is not going to have difficulty in getting another contract. It is a truism to say that the man who gives more value than the letter of his contract calls for, is not going to have difficulty in getting another contract. She: What's your idea of a smart girl?

June Brides will please note that they are expected to know how to tie a bow, and make a strawberry shortcake and Look pretty and be sweet and gentle merry and sympathetic all the time, and never be cut up or broken, and never be unkempt, and never be flushed or have shiny nose, and never, never, never be impatient with Honey, never what he does, or thinks, or say. Fair enough. And on their part let the June bridegrooms come-thru Do they, fristance, understand: Looking after the Fires? Paint the screens? Beating rugs? Cleaning the Flue? Scrubbing the front porch? Making a living? And do they know that they must never, never go around the house with their shirts off, or with their shirts off, or anything like that, and never, be impatient with Honey Bunch, no matter what SHE says, or does or thinks?

Everybody thought him intellectual when he spoke of Plutarch's lives. But it didn't anything.

Thore was also a special policeman of the crowd in line when the assault was made on the box office three times a day. Had Rare Judgment Of Public Taste It must be said of Mr. Gibson, "he was a real theatre manager. He knew what the public wanted. He knew what Gibson did. It was. It was. He also had the absolute power of control over the thespians he employed. He was a great leader. Gibson they would break a contract on receipt of a special delivery letter from him, urging their presence in Philadelphia to perform in the New Standard. When he sent a telegram to any one of them, so he could be Philadelphia faster than Major Moton got to New York from Tuskegee when the Ku Klux Klan did the "Charleston" on the Tuskegee The gentleman ankew his "notes," for he it remembered the Standard elephant until he驶入 palace put his magic hands upon it. With his business acumen and his masterly control of the public and the performers in operas, he made the money came pouring in, so fast he could find no place to put it. He bought an estate on the corner of a white time, but yet it was coming to too fast. He is said later to have bought ten thousand dollars worth of silver plate for the mansion, a riding horse, boots and pants, but this was a mere bagatelle. Dunbar Theatre Also Taken Over After riding around, on "Man of War" two or three times he discovered all was not well with the Dunbar Theatre, the parties concerned in this project he laid down his "iron" and took charge of the Dunbar Theatre. The money began to come in faster than it was going out of Brown and Stevens' bank, so here was born the philanthropist, Mr. Gibson made several large gifts and Pennsylvania worries institutions. Is Big Asset To Morgan College A successful financier, Mr. Gibson represents a class amongst us that is far too small. Our men have been able to work every line but this particular one. Therefore, it can be seen why Morgan conferred the degree. Not only is a worthy man given a degree, but parallels him in the ranks wherein all doctors of law build science halls, dormitories and endow chairs that their memory may be carried down through the ages.

He carries the sacredn He commands universal resp He has stood, not mere the exemplar of the gospel To stand for fifty year and righteousness, upright midst of the worldiness of singular distinction. For fifty years Francis J. Grimke has gone in and out among the people as a priest of God without spot or blemish. He carries the sacredness of his presence with him. He commands universal respect and graverence. He has stood, not merely as the mouthpiece, but as the exemplar of the gospel which he preached. The Reverend Francis J. Grimke is that man. He is now seventy-five years old, and is winding up his career as a minister of Christ, covering nearly 40 years of his career. Mr. Grimke was born in Charleston, S.C., in 1850. After graduation from Lincoln University in 1870, he taught at the University of Virginia and was授教 upon the study of the law at Howard University. But his conscience drove him into the ministry. Whereupon he entered the University and was graduated in the class of 1878. Forthwith he entered upon the active ministry as pastor of the Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church and when with the exception of a few years sojourn in Florida for health reasons, he has labored until the present time. In eighty-eight years, he has gone in and out among the people as a priest of God without spot or blight. He carries the sacredness of his presence with him. He commands universality, and he teaches that he appears in any assembly, the word is swiftly whispered around, "There is Dr. Grimke"; the sanctity of his presence is immediately felt and apprehensible. Thus for fifty years he has stood not merely as the mouth piece, but as the exemplar of the Gospel which he preached. To stand for fifty years in the high place of truth and wisdom, he has been well-known like the inspired prophets of old, in the midst of the worldliness of a capital city, is a rare and singular distinction Washington is extremely worldly-minded, as all great capitals are not to be. Here all things answer to politics, and so far forget the limitations of a condescending deference, in so far as they do not interfere with political policies. The chaplain of the Senate on one side, and so far forget the limitations of his function as to invoke the blessings of God on the League of Nations, only to have his petition to the Throne of Grue expurgated from the record. Dr. Grie makes him a political envoy. With the direct bluntness of a conscious minister of God, he points the defiant finger of denunciation at the president, and even the devil from the line of public rightousness. He keeps himself unspotted from the world of political corruption. I doubt whether he has ever sought the influence of a single man in public life or endeavored to build up a basis of political influence for self-友善. He knows nothing among the people save the kingdom of God and the condescending deference, in so far as they do not interfere with political policies. Washington is intolerant with the gentry and gidiousness of fashionable men. He is not a man of the Dr. Grimke's church is often called the congregation of the clite. Yet none of these things more shame it is simply the man who is by the exudence of fashionable display. With him, the first people are those who rank first in the cause of the church. We live in a material age, in which people bow down and worship the Almighty. Dollar. Beside that, in which we are ascribed like honor, glory, power and dominion. We cannot serve God and Mammon. Spirituality and materiality equip actuaries to which we bow down and worship the Golden Calf have their reward which they seem to value beyond all other modes of仕業. They are the ones who themselves nor hope to deceive others that they are fulfilling the purpose of the Head of the Church. Jesus can never function in the world until the money motive is binned from the ministry. This is the prime prerequisite of a bishop. A bishop must master and the other the servant. Although money used in proper subordination to the higher ends of righteousness, a bishop must master God, yet we cannot purchase the gift of God with money. In this connection, Dr. Grimke serves as a human document which is more common than a volume of learned dissertation. I hope to use not one extravagant word nor exaggerated sentence. But to set down the plain facts of his life and his work, I have no more appreciation of money beyond the requirement of a modest living than did John, the Baptist. For he has, no allurement, no temptations. For the half century of service as a Christian minister, his stipend has been decent creature comforts. Even out of this meager allowance, he religiously gives back to the church and other fellowship, he is the embodyment of every penny which he receives. He believes in high thinking and employment, he is the embodyment of thrift and church today. A minister with an interest in abstinence abmation unto the Lord. The ministry of this money-minded day may be the feet of this abstemious priest and of him, the Christ spirit and method. Dr. Grimke preaches absolutely what he believes and believes what he believes. The century of his ministry covers the validity of the claims of Christianity have been put to the acid test. The whole Darwinian movement has lived during the years of his intellectual growth. He has lived and moved in the midst of religious and scientific controversy during all of his active years. Today he believes in the fundamental truth that the faith as profoundly and as firmly Edwards. His belief is not the result of shallow thinking, nor the blind acceptance of a lazy intellect that shirks the truth of genuine inquiry. He is widely read in religious circles. A Man Of God In An Age Of Gold Washington, A City Of Politics Age Of The Almighty Dollar Dr. Grimke Modern John. The Baptist An Outspoken And Fearless Minister I literature. But there is a deep sediment vein of moral and spiritual conviction that no amount of surface agitation can erase. He is a modernist in understanding, but a fundamentalist in things fundamental. In things fundamental, the most remarkable feature of Dr. Grimke's sermons consists in their directness and simplicity. He never preaches his learning, but is no less than he preaches his statements. He never tries to prove the validity of the Christian doctrine by learning dissentary and simple illustrations and simple convictions. It requires no crucible discussion nor learned disposition to the verity of fundamental truth. Uncompromising Defender of Race Dr. Grimke believes as originally in the fundamental rights of human nature the principles of the religion which he argues. He knows no compromise as to the rights of the Negro and no compromising union in the leadership of the Negro race as his more emphatic and elemental brother, the Hue, who is the most important such a compassionous port in the leadership and direction of the National Advancement of the Colored People. The two brothers are of twin spirit, the one giving spiritual and moral expression and the other political and beautiful fraternal friendship between these two brothers is worth of being set forth in song and story. If we add the daughter of the house, Ms. Katherine, to the family, the literary tales and tails, and who is of the same spirit as her father and uncle, the unity will be complete. Dr. Grimke has published in pamphlet some fifty or sixty of his racial thieves, racial thieves, he never fails to tie to the occasion. In every racial crisis we may expect to hear the voice of Francis J. Grimke giving about and about the injustice and enraged with the righteous indignation of the 18th-century prophets. Criticises Lincoln University Policies His scathing denunciation of the white ministry to practice the gospel which they preach disturbs their queen, and his questioning of how powerful or influential the transgressor may be, he noises no favor and asks no quarter. He brands the white priest Christianism as oppressive and hypocritical for their failure to treat their fellow religionists according to the requirements of the Christ. They breathe every time Ginkgo leaves a prophet, and justify their grave protest and justify their grave misconduct by calling him a trouble maker in Israel. He never puts his foot on the campus of Lincoln University because he is a fundamental principle of Christian brotherhood by failing to plea Negro men on the faculty. We only admire and bear the scathing denunciation of the critic when our smoking counterpart takes it after all the denunciation is just. Has Published Many Pamphlets Let us hope that Dr. Grimke will now gather in one or several volumes these scattered pamphlets which will serve to give a wider and more permanent influence to the办会的 of past half century. The influence of his intellect and his self-aspiration the Dr. Grimke's ministry cannot be灶的 by the influence and effect upon his local congregation. He is of a modest and retiring nature so that his practical ministry missed much of the widespread dissimilar influence of the principal or popular presence. In his case the preacher is more than the preaching. The example of the life is greater than the influence of the spoken or the written word. It is no disparagement of others to say that through the silent penury of moral consistency and spiritual endowment, he has done more to vindicate the claims of the Christian minister upon the confidence of the people than any other minister of the gospel of the national capital, black or white. Many who went to hear him preach least often had for him the highest understanding and appreciation. Not only so, but every father of a son feels safe and secure for the more humane of his boy because of the example of Francis J. Grimke. To Washington He is easily the greatest moral asset in the city of Washington. I am obliged to his profoundest, though not always demonstrative admirers, the believers and effect of this modern John the Baptist, who somewhat was widely extended. If we could inspire into the hearts of our young men of the city of Washington our moral and spiritual problems could be well on the way towards solution. Like the Washington Monument he is the ideal in the chastity and purity of his character, pointing the way to his character, pointing the way to his active ministry and participation in public affairs. He has just resigned from the position he served in which capacity he served with his wounded fidelity and righteous mindness for forty years. He has left the faith.

Mother was being helped to chicken for the second time, when she remembered pressing the large gravy bowl, saying, "I think it's in the gravy." Sure enough it was, but what happened was that she opened her door. She managed to cover it casually with a piece of bread, and later, when no one was looking, to enter the room, she put it into her pocket. But the chicken had lost its flavor for her. L. V.

Helpful Hints To keep books on shelves or in cases in good condition sprinkle occasionally with powdered camphor. Never leave medicine or any kind of a drink uncovered in a sick room. Keep honey in the dark. If exposed to the light it will quickly granulate. To remove white spots from varnished furniture hold a hot stove oil or plate over them until they disappear. A too rapid boiling ruins the flavor of a foxy sauce. It must boil up once, but should merely simmer afterward. An asbestos mat makes an ideal roaster. It becomes very hot and inedible. This 'roaster' requires less attention than the average roaster. Take a cake by the wick and give it a coating of white vinegar, then put it in a pan and boil until the water is lightened. When lightened the vignette prevents the grease from running down the side, and the cake will last twice as long.

Published by The Company Company, 355 Fifth Avenue, New York City. Price $2.00, by mail, $2.10. I have put these two books together because each deals with the problem of the offspring of mixed blood, the first of the three races in South Africa, the second with the whites and Indians in California. "God's Stepchildren" has met with extortion in three weeks; in three weeks in three weeks; and "Martha," just published, vivid, daring, its author a man who has written wills for all his children, and its large scale of readers. Both give oge the feeling that the authors are thoroughly familiar with the settings in which they place their "God's Stenchchildren." "Gods' Stepchildren" paints Northern South Africa in a way to make comparison. The whites grab the land as fast as they can, and the natives, robbed and illtreated, hate one another. The native as the half-caste; no man so bitter against the half-caste as the other. One is "Nigger," the other "Bastard." And there is no way for a man to escape his black blood. However little it may be, it is always there to mock him. If he will be silence regarding a slight admixture, it is a silence that is really blackmail. "As long as he paid the world in the colony of success the man would be silent if one day he coase payment? No longer would his secret be curiously whispered.—it would be shouted in his "Martha" Martha, a beautiful half-breed brought up by white people, finds California little better than the program that brought up Hottonton Silla find South Africa. To be sure, Martha more than once threw away promised good fortune. She would fall in love with the wrong man, but she would not. She is surrounded by "many-minded old hens" and men, with whom she has to fight, literally with hands and nails, for hurture. Martha, beautiful California valley is humanly a mean, ugly spot. There is no place for her, one learns at the end, among the white people of the Back To The Race With singular unanimity, these two writers send their hero and heroline at the last back to their own races. I am not sure if they are children. It requires a good deal of do with the popularity of "God's Step, faith, in the author and in inheritance of the faith, in the story that Burr, the last of the five generations with which Mrs. Millin deals, would ever have emulated his great, greatness, but I am sure his sonry among the blacks, leaving his wife and unborn child, but just as the white reader enjoys this sacrifice, so they enjoy this sacrifice of the white sticks and joining in the Indian's song, Negro. I doubt if the public would understand her novel had it had a different ending. Not Real Characters There is a world of sympathy in these two books, sympathy for the man or woman of mixed blood repudiated by the white. But does the white writer really understand the lives of black people, moving them about in the way he thinks they should go, sometimes attributing to them emotions he thinks they should have? They are vivid, noble pictures, but I doubt their verity.

A moment before, however, Elisbingui, to escape the panther as it leaped upon him, had thrown himself flat on the ground. When he raised himself, still trembling, the panther had disappeared. But Batouala was there, very close to Bissibulul. The mokoundiil lay surrounded by m group of mokoundiis. His historian is *la lah* *bhra* The panther, infuriated by the jave, in which he had seen coming—thought it was not meant for him—hid ripples in the water, the blow of his paw. Then he had fed. CHAPTER XII The breath in Batouala's threat rattled faintly. For fifteen sleeps he had in like the sleep on his bogbo, screaming and grooming incessantly, from morning to evening, from evening to morning again. A persistent frenzy, grooming, screaming, and scorched his body. Every now and then he'd cry: "Something to drink . . . Something to drink!" He'd throw the drink right up again and back on his bogbo grooming with pain. Today he was different. No fever, now he was different. He lay bathed in a cold sweat, scrucely stirring, and talked instead of moaning and grooming, talked, talked incessantly stopping only when the rattle closed. A few minutes more, one night maybe, at most a night and a day, and Batouala, the most mokkoudi, would leave his bed, with eyes closed forever. He would leave for that black village from which no road leads back again. He would resign his habit and all the old In that village one no longer saw the Pombo or the Bembe, or any of the whites were not there to be scorned and obeyed. You couldn't quarrel with this man or that on the subject of womens' singing and dancing did not last forever. After the dry season came the rainy season. Man lived but a moment. The sea was tangible proof of this truth: here was a Batomba! Soon he would die. The calmer delirium following at the end of the day upon the sunlight meant immediately, not right after the accident. A wounded man was always interesting, especially when his name was Oleander, not immediately, not right after the accident. A wounded man was always interesting, especially when his name was Oleander, not immediately, not right after the accident. A wounded man, ought they neglect a herd of buffals following only a javelin's throw away? That is why, my Batomba, they let you under the shade of a tree, wrapped in a cover, with Diouma your dog. That is why, my Batomba, they'd pursue the buffals. They'd come back and look after you a little later. N'Gakoum, how lifesome to have to go to the Bembe instead of remaining in the rest of the hunters. ..... Batouala was laid on a litter. Four men with torchs headed the march, with a drink in hand, a smoke light, behind which came the litter-bearers, four Mbis, who were followed by four more men carrying torches. Blasé Guingui and Djouma closed the procession. What a slow step! How heavy! How slow and dull and heavy! Scents of the night, glow-worms, the rushing of wings, dew, the lingering bloom, the hard. Bait and silence! At intervals, one of the groups of torch-bearers relieved the litter-bearers. All were equally taciturn. They mustn't walk too fast or two slow, they mustn't tumble or make a sudden movement. At the least jar Batoutaa, they must not hear, that was either because he was polite about it or because he was incurably deaf, that was either because she curtailed the badda, crossed the chain of hillocks overhanging the Baldou, and climbed the great bulk of the kaga Biga, the insides of which contained stones of transparent material. When they reached to be precious. When they reached the villages of Debale near which ran the fresh waters of the Kavala, they stopped to rast, eat, and drink, and went to the village.

Then, stopped to rest, eat, and drink, and buttle, the cateleme, and a small like, the last one to be passed. Lake Patakala. Now comes acres planted with millet, peanuts, peanuts, gumbo, potatoes, and Hait! The hut of the mokoukid! You are at your hut, Bataoula... The hut is the place of the blacks their sorcerers. Be sure they were aliko and 'one as good as the other. There were good doctorors, and bad sorcerers. There were good sorcerers and bad doctorors. But no matter what happened, the orders of the sorcerer must be carried out. So, according to the sorcerer's directions, a sort of lattice-work arrangement was set up in front of Bataoula's fetal belly, bags of fragrant herbs, and bags of frighten away the evil eye, and bells, large and small, to frighten away the evil spirit. The evil spirits still lingering, nevertheless, women chanters, and players of the gong's came to watch over them. But also! it was in vain that they filled his hut with hideous noises of voice and tom-tom. Illness remained supreme. An evil demon tortured Bataoula, and no use any more going to the trouble of tying a rope tight round his belly. Dondorro had overstepped the limits of what he had meant the ropes to mark for him. From day to day the gangrene spread. The fat files, blue, green, and brown, cover the corpses, came and buzzed round the swollen, suppurting wound. Nothing could overcome the witch-hands, the lavings with hot or cold water, nor the exorcism nor the applications of the poisonous hams seaked in the mud.

Even Djouma was nauseated by the smell and stopped licking his master's wound. He had fulfilled all his duties as a dog. What more could he do since there was nothing more to be done? In despair of the cause, the commandant was consulted. The commander was friendly and charming. He replied in high humor that Batoula could rot to death and all the Mbis along with him. So they gave up in miseries, exorcism and promemnic bags, the sorcerer's medicaments, fetishes. The gonga players departed, and so did the women chanters. Batoula could die. They had already begun to pillage his possession to stimulate you. Batoula. You have not agonized for nothing. Your suffering has reminded a lot of men that you owed them a lot of things they had given you. They have taken the millet from your granaries, they have led away your cattle, they have stolen your arms. But they stopped when they were rested. Best easy though. The fate of your women has been decided. They have been engaged long ahead. The breath in Batoula's throat rat. Of what was he dreaming? Was he merely dreaming? Did he know that he was left almost alone in the hut that evening? No. He was delighted and the pain in his throat, so he couldn't know that save for Djouma. Bisslingu and Yassiguldua, everybody had deserted him, even his head-men. his kismen, his women and the children he had taken. He did not know that Bisslingu and Yassiguldua were there separated from one another by the fire that no longer warmed him. He could not know that Djouma. He could not know that Bisslingu and Yassiguldua were on the rubber baskets—over there. Nor could he hear the comotion caused among his animals by an unwanted sound—the sound of Bisslingu violently violating Yassiguldua. The ducks and the ducks with their necks extended curiously toward the place the noise came from, went phea-peha-phea, phea-peha-phea. And for the last time, in his delirium, he told over all the things he had against the whites—their lyrical, their cruelty, their illogicality, their hypocrisy, their hypocrisy, their hypocrisy, their Mandias, neither whites nor blacks. There were nothing but men. And all men were brothers. It was wrong to steal and fight with one's neighbor. It was wrong to commit the same thing. But the whites actually compelled the blacks to take part in their savagery—to go kill for them in palavers in far-away lands. And if a black protested, they put a rope round his neck, and knotted whips, threw him in prison. March, dirty bigger! 'March! Die like a dog. A long silence. Djouma went to sniff his master. What was it Djouma sensed? Who had told him that the end was near? Had he wanted to hear from closer by the voice of the man he perhaps mourned in his dark soul? Had the old instinct leapt up in him, which urges animals when one of their number is on the verge of death to forget past quarrels and make truce, and with a worried muzzle separate the herage and snuff in the direction where, they suppose, lies the undiscernible? There's no telling. However that may be, Djouma now crouched on the ground as though he were sulking, his snout between his stretched forepaws, his back to the fire. Yassiguinda and Bissibingul looked at Batouala and shook their heads. "Is he dead?" she asked. "Not yet." They smiled at each other. And they understood each other.

Your eyes have opened, and your eyes have thrown the covers of your urticarial emaculated body. You have risen. You walk, tottering and holding on your arms like a baby learning a walk. Where are you going? To Bissinguish guild and Yassinguishia? Couldn't you be Batutou, seeing you soon to be die? They have no thought of where they are. They don't see you, or rather they don't go seen you yet. They—oh, you don't go seen you yet. Now are they glad they've seen you? Are you glad they're sane glued to the wall, their limitsqual, their teeth chattering with terror?

YOUTH DESERTING CHURCH, SAYS DIVINE Improper Home Training Blamed for Religious Aversion Young people are endevoting a group of children to improve their inducements must be made, but in our efforts to hold them we must take our God all the Christian spirit and have for their ultimate purpose the binding of the young people to God. A great deal of the lack of spiritual training of children is due to improper home training. We take too much for granted. We seem to think the child with "tinnitus" because we hope they will. A definite course must be pursued. Systematic training, safe guarding and protecting him by counsel, prayer and belief. I think the Junior Church is a fine thing. The child thru training, feels that it is no longer "the church, but my church." People's Christian Church is faith Baptists Elect The Rev.

CRITICISES AMERICANS IN WEST AFRICA CRITICISES AMERICANS IN WEST AFRICA Native Liberian Wife Of Local Pastor Not Satisfied With Work Abroad That African natives have come to regard missionaries as fortune seekers and that missionaries are proud about by the selflessness of the missionaries themselves, was among statements made by Mrs. L. C. Curtis in a lecture at the Independence Street and Pennsylvania Ave. Friday evening. Mrs. Curtis, wife of the pastor, and native Liberian has just returned to Baltimore from a trip to Africa. The lecture which ended in a scathing arrangement of missionary talk and a description of life in the Monrovia capital. Mrs. Curtis described the American as a stifler of glory by a description of life in the Monrovia capital. The average Liberian maintains from three to seven native servants whom they can employ, she says, about four times a drudgery while the Liberians set about and entertain. It is this lack of alertness and progressiveness that underlies all of the financial difficulties of the re- There are a number of energetic men but they are kept submerged through the influence of the ruling calls. Calling attention to statements made concerning Liberia in the APRO-AMERICAN, the speaker told missionary workers severely. The speaker declared, if children in mission schools ever have to go to school, they must be given instruction or deliberate cruelty, for most of the children in his school are required to pay their board and when this is not done, from what can be seen, the children are being raised. She also declared that missionaries were caring heavily into business and adopting stories that are on the mind of the self, but distrust, the price of ordinary commodities was for an advance of what they should be for a cent or just 13 cents there. The high point in Mrs. Curteculeur was reached, however, when she declared that rats caught by traps belonged to missionaries solely for the names. She explained, however, that it was a native custom to sell the rodents for food but not to hunt them. It was also for beds to perpetuate this heathen custom. Middletown, Del.—Serves at Dale's M. E.

His ministry had been migratory, restricted and chiefly ungathered fruit. His selfless in Relinchim without money and without a home. By daily toll he was picking up his bread. He was dead set on doing something in the city. He was the man of the constructive sort, and never had done well when building on another man's foundation. His ambition was to build a church. Down on the James River, where the big furnaces were run, there was a little island, and on the island a little house, and scattered among the newly liberated and uncared for people of his race. coming for the building of the temple. A New Reaction Jasper was on the outlook for a new church. He hit the lift on back humming on the corner of Duval and St. John's. The Presbyterians, who had started his mission years before had then changed conditions and they offered the house for sale, the price being $2,025. The sense of growth and progress fully maddened this unique and fascinating preacher with enthusiasm. He had found a home for his people at last, and yet, in point of magnificent gain on their own quarters, and yet every Sunday after noon found most of his crowd on the outside. Remodeled Quite soon his people had to enlarged and remodel the house, and On the Island He began to hold religious services on the island—said by one to have been held in a private house, and by others, fitted up to staircase, and then fitted up to recommend the increasing crowds. Things went well with him. The joy of building flamed his soul, and beneath the tide his heart. Five times he drove there were! The people were wild with enthusiasm, and the shouts of his congregation mingled with the noise of the James River, and the sound of the heaven, and he walked as the King's ambassador among his admiring duck Not Room Enough But it could not be that: long. There was not room enough to contain the people, and yet the church they do? Happily they found a deserted building beyond the canal and accessible to the growing canal here.

By that time the membership was large, and a number of years until the church became the center of the religious life in that part of the town, "John Jasper," as he was universally called, had easily become the most attractive place for minister of his race in the city.

K. BRUCE BEGAN WORK 20 YEARS AGO By W. M. Peters Leavenworth, Kans.---Professor B. K. Bruce held the world's record as a coach of candidates for Uncle Sam's Military Academies. Not only has he coached young men for West Point and Annapolis, but also for commissions direct from army from private life. He has had an army 1700 young men under his instruction, some of whom are now in every corps of the army and on nearly every battleship afloat. He has also prepared boys for college of whom had not even been a high school education, but each has made more. No Waste Of Time No boy is allowed to waste his time. After one interview Professor Bruce knows whether he will be able to pass the examinations or not and then he frankly tells him. Just as he can diagnose the boy's mind so can he diagnose his character and one more one whether he is a dead earner or whether he is a four flusher and expects to bluff his way through. Suffice it to say the four flusher packs his trunk and returns home to enter some other vocation or what not. In his work this coach is unique as he is the only colored teacher in the United States during this type of work and the only teacher, white or colored, who handles all of the subjects required. Mathematics occupies a special position in his work and his own subjects, but more because of his transformed method and ideas in teaching. The students that attend his school are not only from the States, but from other countries, governers, congressmen, generals, colonels, majors and captains, in fact from every walk of life. These are not the students, however, in whom interested. Public School Head From eight in the morning until four in the afternoon he is principal of one of the Loavenworth public schools and at no time does he neglect his own people. Colored boys who have gone on to high school and found the work there a struggle have gone back to see Professor Bruce, who provided kind and helpful and humane guidance and encouraged them to work new. Then at the close of school he begins his coaching, working usually until 11 o'clock, keeping these hours five days in the week and thornyly enjoying every bit of it. Letters From Everywhere Professor Bruce is admired and respected by his students, also sincerely asked, as evidenced by letters. Christmas presents or gifts are sent to him from all over the world by these boys. He is, moreover, admired and respected in Leavenworth and all the boys sent to him are placed entirely in his case, attending no shows, parties nor dances without his permission. He accepts this responsibility, he hardly cares for any parent but comes to regret the trust therein placed. His own life is clean, as he has no bad habits, not even the use of tobacco. His recreations are chess, checkers and dancing and his partner in each of these is his wife. **How He Started** When asked how he happened to take up the job he applied, "It came as lightning from a clear sky. A young man who had the reputation of not studying and of not being able to learn, received an appointment to West Point. This boy had never been to a high school and his father tried in vain to find some one to couch him. As a last resort he came to me. Real opportunity I took the boy in hand. He missed his lowest grade 88.** "From that day to this I have been in the work and I am very proud to say that my boys not only pass entrance examinations, and at Annapolis and some of the young men from the ranks whom I have taught have become instructors on the college staff." Born in Missouri. Professor Bruce was born on a small farm in Missouri of a contractor and brick manufacturer, and at the age of 12 was able, under his father's tutelage, to figure exactly the cost of buildings. At the age of 18, he was graduated from the University of Kansas. He was a teacher of his course and had become a collegiate oratory and State contests. He is a member of Sigma Phi Phi, a college graduate fraternity. At once time it was his ambition to enter politics, but he decided instead to become a teacher. No Politics When asked why he quit politics he said, "I have always kept in close touch with the trend of American politics and have come to the conclusion that the game of politics is detrimental to the general welfare of my people, as it is one which we try to play but always lose in the sympathetic on the one hand does not counterbalance the continual and persistent opposition on the other. Therefore I am devoting my life to education." Daughter Baltimore Tis wife is also a college graduate and their two daughters matriculated Ann Arbor, One, New York and does the colored schools of Baltimore, and the other, who went to France during the war to do Red Cross service, is now teaching in one of the Leavenworth public colored schools. A southern Senator's son went to Fort Leavenworth a decade ago, asking how to prepare for the examinations. Everybody he applied to he was told "Go see Bruce." he said "Impossible!" Eventually he climbed down from his "high horse", saw Mr. Bruce and ranked first in his examinations. The coaching course usually runs the following up to six days. Six to eight hours each day is required. Call VErnon 6016 ADMIRAL MAKER R. C.

His room is tastefully decorated with priceless relics of Art which are Liberian. Draped with the flag of the country is the seal of L. Liberia. Also under the National Council are the priests, president C. D. B. King and Ex-President D. E. Moward, the immediate predecessor of President King. Or Small Statue The main himself is of extreme interest. Small of stature and slightly stout, with dark brown skin and straight black hair; he presents a neat and quiet appearance. He is often much coaxing he related a few bure facts about himself. He wore in the lape of his coat, a little red slik decoration, significant of an honour bestowed on him by the French, and he has this great honour he has been decorated by the French, Spanish and Belgium Governments. Mr. Cooper is very highly esteemed in Liverpool, he is frequently invited to important social functions, and several occasions, spoken at public banquets. Attitude Of Americans He commented on the attitude of the American Negro towards Liberia. He pointed out that the purpose of Liberia was to enable Negroes to have an autonomous State, where they could live, where which they would otherwise be rehired. Not Sympathetic It was his opinion that the Afro-American were not as sympathetic with the struggles of Liberia as they might be; due primarily to the fact of the war, the formation of the struggles of the Liberians, in endeavoring to establish on the great Continent of Africa a National Ego. This understanding could only be arrived at by contact, brought about by the right sort and not otherwise. On Marcus Garvey In speaking of Marcos Garvey and his plan for Negro colonization in Africa he said, "Garvey's idea was a good one, but that his business methods were impracticable." Garvey has done more harm than good; were he more of a business man than a grandad, he would have effected a triumphant success, but, like all things, we only see the folly of our ways when it is too late." Liberla No Paradise When asked how the American Negro could help Liberia, he remarked, "By giving his quota of wealth and intellectual attainment, both scientific and economic. Liberia has wealth and numerous opportunities. What Liberia desires is that nobody comes there hoping to find a Paradise. She is a young country laden with property and development. She needs young men with capital and skill to start companies for the exploitation of her natural resources. To come to Liberia without capital is futile. She has huge quantities of valuable goods. Her soil is very fertile and cotton and coffee are indigenous products. Cattle raising is also profitable. Liberia must an especial need for mining engineers to mine her oil, diamonds and gold, and to electrify her cities and towns." Melting Pot As the United States of America has been a "melting pot" from which he eminated a strong and vigorous nation, composed of diverse peoples, even the descendants of the various black tribes of Africa, so must Liberia be also the "melting pot" for the members of her racial group in America; for the African people of South Africa and other parts of Africa, from which, will also emulate a strong, vigorous and united African nation with malice and ill-will towards none; but with love for them, constituting his quorum towards the World's civilization and the unity of humanity. A National Ethiopia These are the fundamental dynamic powers prevailing in the minds of the Liberian people; to which, Mr. Cooper added) are the prime motives of our ancestors, who suffered, abhorred and consumed a massacration of a National Utopia." Gets Damages Mrs. Rose Brooks, 1808 Orleans street, city, this week recovered damages from the street car company through her father (Gregor F. Murchie, for injuries sustained while she was a passenger). Mrs. Brooks, an angel lady, was injured by the armrest of an Orleno street light on her way home for a work.

The value of new ideas is over-rated. The one thing that takes a man ahead is his ability to get one good idea, and then stick with it through lean and fat years, through war and peace, through fire and blood. Too many of us jump from one idea to another, from one job to another, scrapping a host of good ideas and good experiences as we race along. Few business ever die from lack of good ideas. Rather they die from lack of men who can carry out ideas—good executives—men who can take an assignment and then come back with a package under their arms, men who, if you please, "carry the message to Garcia."

Opportunities Undreamed Then came the signing of the document authorizing the construction of the bridge between Camden and Philadelphia, and the boom in real estate in the New Jersey area. The bridge was built even rapid, but there is certain to be a bigger boom when the bridge is constructed and thousands of people now in crowded conditions in Philadelphia will rush to get home sites in commuting distance of their own. Another advantage that the new town offers is the opportunity to own a home near Atlantic City where taxes and living conditions will be low while its residents may enjoy the so many pleasures as those living conditions are highest in the land. The proposed bridge will be completed by July 4, 1926. Besides small home sites which may be purchased on the installation site, the development also has a number of farm sites in this section. As to Miskah, itself, it is located on both the Pennsylvania and the blacks' Pike, within a few miles ride of either Atlantic City and Philadelphia. (Columbian Press Bureau) Washington, D. C.-Although the growing of vegetables in commercial quantities is becoming a profitable industry, the number of colored farmers is decreasing, while the number of white farmers is increasing. The numerous large canneries and the industrial market of Wilmington within the State, the nearness of the markets of the large eastern cities, the eastern cities, Philadelphia, Camden, and Baltimore, give the truck farmers of Delaware exceptional opportunities because of short hauls and splendid rail and water transportation facilities. The principal vegetables raised in the State, their commercial crops are tomatoes, cantaloupes and muskmelons, sweet corn, green peas, watermelons, cucumbers, asparagus, cabbage, green beans, celery, onions and lettuce. The average value of products per acre ranges from $14 for pumpkins to $321 for lettuce. Columbian Press, about 41 colored farmers in the State, about 42 per cent of whom are owners. TWENTY-TWO YEARS IN PULLMAN SERVICE Boast Washington, D. C.—One of the picturesque figures in the hour world is Rienza Brock Lemus, grand president of the Brotherhood of Dining Car Employees, which means the cooks and waiters on pullman cars. Born forty-five years ago in Richmond, Va., he has succeeded with the help of eightied advisers in bringing in the union every eastern railroad except the Baltimore and Ohio. Cooks and waiters are so per cent of the ingredients which go to make passengers on mod- Born forty-five years ago in Richmond, Va. he has succeeded with the help offered by the Inning in bringing into the union every eastern railroad except the Baltimore and Ohio. Cooks and waiters are 90 per cent of the ingredients make passengers on modern railroad cat white travelling at the rat hour and enjoy elling at the rate of sixty miles an hour and enjoy it. Railroad executives did not think so until the roads got under government control during the war, and William G. CeAdoo saw to it that colored workers on the trains got the right to organize and be represented at labor confabs. So it happens that the Cooks-Waiters organization functions as per labor section, Esch Cummings Transportation Act 1920. It used to be that the work of a pullman car waiter and cook like a woman's was never done. It's different now. He has regular hours, regular pay, extra pay for overtime, all of which have come since the organization has been in the position to deal with the railroad executives in their name. When the Spanish War broke out Lemus joined the volunteers, serving with the 24th Infantry in the Phillipines. Has seen service on every Eastern railroad and the Pullman Company, since 1904, also he pulled a cargo porter, longshoreman, juniper, but never ran an elevator or went to jail. Asked what schools he attended, President Lemus modestly referred to the public schools of Richmond, and then added, "I never finished High School. As an absolute precedent to finishing is beginning. If a fellow never goes to High Schools he can never." One of his ambitions is to knit the cooks-watters of all railroads into an iron clad organization, and another is to see workers in other vocations do the same thing. Mr. Lemus is now on a trip through the south in the interest of the order. He was in Atlanta, Atlanta University, Norfolk, Day and Sunday, Norfolk, Asherville and Charlotte, Tuesday, and expects to return to Washington headquarters, June 15.

AFRICAN PROBLEMS WORRY ENGLAND Native Restlessness and Nightmare of Revolt Constant Fear That political and economic developments in South Africa are frequently reaching a crises and that Bangladesh's solution is highly important was revealed in a speedy by Sir Abbey Bailey, Bart, at: public banquet at Krugersdorp. In the course of his remarks Sir Abbey Bailey said: Colored problem "The colored problem must be settled by a color of absorption. I do not mean by offering the colored man work on the level of a white man. There he would probably get only a black eye; but a beginning must be made by rehousing them—whatever the cost may be—educating and elevating them, giving them education, granting them an argument to advance, otherwise, one day, the colored man may join up and lead the natives. That is a very great danger. The native problem, which is really the white problem, haunts us as a nightmare. It must haunt every thinking South African patriot. It is a national problem and requires us to be auspicious for private members in Parliament to attempt to direct by motions on this phase or that phase. However well intentioned these motions may be, their efforts cannot be forseen. (Applause). "Where we are with one and a half million of natives, against seven millions of natives, and it would be most dangerous to ignore numbers. We must look them fairly and squirrelly in the face if we wish to save South Africa, for the white races. Western civilization will have to fight to maintain its foothold. The native of today is full of ill-wear toward the white races. He has abandoned the counsel of the white, and now takes his religion, advice, education from men of his own color. We must treat the native justly and or as justly and fairly as possible; but to talk of justice and then say we are going to carry out a white policy is unadulterated wrong. The native is here and we must see how we can do this. We can all recall his usefulness and our dependence on him, which was ascertained fully during the great influenza epidemic, and we must see we do not turn him from being an asset into a liability. (Appease.) The native is thinking and restless; at times he ranges between anger and despair; but let me advise him, as a friend and not an enemy, that if he goes to extremes in the forms of rebellion or revolution those methods will not be met with indisbates. It would be the supreme testing period for the white races, to act and to serve together, and to show we are a nation of patriots and not partisans. Mrs. Jas. H.

ENOUGH DOCTOR TWO STORES cent interest while you are saving, and thirdly, you will establish your credit with a financial institution to whom you will later turn for a loan. This last consideration is very important. You are not going to save enough money to pay cash for your home. You are going to save a few hundred dollars and then attempt to buy. You will then be in the market for a loan. To have already established your rep putation as a trusty, industrious and dependable character with a Loan organization will be a great advantage to you in borrowing. When you have saved about $500 in Building and Loan shares, you may choose the home that you want to buy. In making your selection, be careful to choose a location that is likely to increase in value; that is near a Church or school, and likely to remain a desirable location. Select a house that you can pay for without undue strain. Choose something that is within your means, that you can pay for within eight months, that you can buy to a better price to buy a modest home that you are certain you can carry than to take a big risk.

S. Seabrook, 1432 Orleans street, began proceedings thru the office of Davis and Evans, lawyers, to recover $5,000,00 from the Baltimore Transit company, operators of a Blue Bus line on Charles street. Seabrook claims that on July 12, 1924, he was refused passage on bus 90 by conductor of a servant carriage used by the author. A research conducted by Messrs.

Probation Officer George Ralph sent letters to the Vivint office of the boy, with whom he lived in Cheekwood, S. C., but has received no reply.

The Afro Court Reporter The 1925 prize for explanations goes to Thomas Johnson, McDonough St. Johnson was haled into the Criminal Court to explain how he spooned the milk of which a boarding house on Broadway was robbed. The spoones bore the same marks as those that were left on the table when the man was taken away. “Your Honor,” said Johnson, “I was on my way out to buy some ice cream and I had those spoons to eat it with.” Do you always carry spoons out to buy ice cream?” asked the judge. "Yes sir, your honor, I never eat in someone's house, and get what food, and drink, I home." "Oh," said the judge, "you carry your spoons there, get what you want and then carry them back again." "That's the idea, Judge," said the judge, "Well, maybe you can explain how these spoons happened to be just like the missing articles." Johnson was stumped for a moment, then replied, "You see, Judge, you carried the burrow and he got them out of the can." "You are pretty good at explanations," said the judge, "but by the time you spend with me, you will be able to explain the reason, you will be able to think up better ones." Charles Wilson, of Orleans St., was gray-haired, walked with a husband's shuffled shoes, and looked right in the eye. That Charles was straight-forward, upright and honest is the first impression one would get to look at. He taught it was a shame when people declared that he was the man who snatched a pocketbook. Expressions of sympathy were the most room and many felt sure it was a case of mistaken identity. The witnesses however, positive that Wilson was the man who snatched the pocketbook, said the $25 he on Lexington Street, on April 25th. At last Wilson took the stand. Auditors gave a nigh of relief, feeling that someone could vindicate himself. "Your honor," he said. "I am a hard working man and have lived in Baltimore for many years and never been in trouble in my life." The states attorney rose, cleared his throat and said: "Your honor, I have been here many times. From his record which began in 1832, he was given the pen for snatchting a wallet. In 1830 he was given three years for the same offense, and on 1913 was given one year for the same. In 1925 one year "And before you put that paper away," said the judge, "you can add that in 1925 he was, given another James Gibbs, 1010 Tenth street, Washington, D.C. wanted to come to Baltimore. He had no special reason for wanting to come, there was no urgent need for him here as far as could be ascertained. Gibbs just wanted to come. Gibbs left Union Station, Washington, on a special commission instead of in it. As most gentlemen of leisure, Gibbs neglected to look at a table and found himself headed for Pittsburgh instead of his original Maryland. On the way to Maryland, West Virginia and Pennsylvania and back again until he finally redirected Baltimore without a mishap. He was just sitting on a train with the car in the Canden Station yards when he was placed under arrest. In the Western Police station he informed the judge that he had rode 500 miles miles out of the way to get to Baltimore. He pretty tough to have to go right back.

Gwyn was impressed the money so he is asking Bainman a little longer than he had planned. Joseph Jones, 213 N. Carolina street, was badly beaten up when he was brought into the Northwest side of the city. Mrs. Llenore Morton, 202 Caroline street, was the accused witness who charged "him with disturbing the peace and cutting her on the leg. He happened that caused the cutting"—Mrs. Morton—"Your honor, you was just like this; that man came around to my house and wanted to take a picture. But he didn't want no bother out of him. That is, not just then." Jones—No, your honor she didn't bother out of him then because she had another man in the house." Mrs. Morton—"That's true, your honor, there was another man in the house." Judge—"Judge, I have gotta there right regular and I have seen no husband there before so I got mad and cut her. Then, your honor, men grabbed me and beat me up." Judge—"Well, in just about two seconds two more big men are going to grab you and look you up." Judge—"In less time than the judge expected. He will work out a $50 fine."

Strickler St., into the toils of the law Thursday when he was convicted on a charge of practicing medicine without a license in this city." The doctor's trouble started when his spiritual knowledge which had served to bring him to work in his own place when two police women disguised themselves and sought treatment. Out in the Strickler Street neighborhood he is known as "Willy" and had a reputation as being a faith healer but also dispensed medicines of his own make Women Patients Only According to police, Davis' practice was limited to women patients. He was a counselor in affairs of the chest, returning erring husbands and assuring the fidelity of lovers. The "Dr." would help desensitize and assure that those husbands burned out their husbands would be returned. He was found guilty but sentences was suspended awaiting motion for a new trial. The offense carried a fine of $50 to $200 or a full term, POLICE STAGE RAID ON QUEER POOL GAME POLICE STAGE RAID ON QUEER POOL GAME Suspledon Aroused When 24 Men Arae Aged Playing One Game When an officer walked into a pool room located at 1302 N.

Ralph V. Sockman, of New York City, in the University College of Montreal last Thursday. Commencement exercises were held in a shady natural amphitheater on the campus and although the students were not present, the spectators were comfortable. In his appeal to the graduates, the Rev.

The girl was held under guard in the hospital as a suspect in the murder of her brother, the same address, who was found with his head battered in with a bloody hammer lying near the body as silent testimony to how to the crime At the time the girl was also found with a fractured skull in another room. At the time she had been a love duo. This theory was abandoned by police when every clue seemed to point toward an out side scene. Simms, father of the girl was arrested and held in connection with the crime. A charge of carrying concealed weapons was pinned to her life. Police were to have had a dangerous weapon on his person at the time of his arrest. Story Of Unnatural Love A story circulated by an unnatural love affair existing between the girl and her father. He did not live at the home but visited her at the hospital to her having men callers. Police reports show that Simms is the father o five children by his lawful wife but as far, as can be determined his name, is an illicit child. Father Has Record Circumstances similar to those in the present case involved Simms, 14 years ago, according to investigations of the police. A young girl was found with her head crushed after having been seen last seen among with Simms. Just before she could not be proven against him and she was dismissed. The affair took place in Calvert County. Locked in the girls mind was the only clue to the killing of the girl, who gobble up the fire they will be able to clear up the mystery. The concealed weapon charge will be pressed, however. Miss Alma Kelley, 2013 Drulid Hill avenue, has pledged $500 to Morgan College to be used to provide an annual prize for excellence in elocution.
