England— Few younger women are more interested in both their race and their sex than Miss Christine M. Coussey of London. For a long time she has taken a vital interest in all things racial. Miss Coussey is the eldest daughter of the great brow and three girls and since her mother's death she has efficiently kept house for her father, who has for some time been a resident of London. Born in Sierra Leone, she came to England at an early age, and completed her education there. She attained women's college in England, where she specialized in domestic economy. She has travelled extensively in Africa, especially the French Senegal, and also has spent a considerable time in Paris. Next year Miss Coussey plans to go to South Africa, and she will engage in teaching and social service work among the natives. Lock Girls In In her conversation she-revealed many interesting experiences with which colored women students are faced when in English schools. "It is a customary thing in some boarding schools" she said, "for the men rooms, whenever there were visitors to the school. I have known this to happen in a number of instances. Women students of descent are treated well enough. English girls and schoolmates, but it is from the parents of these and the school authorities that pressure comes." Originality "what we Negro women must learn," said Miss Coussey, "is to be more original in the work that we do." She mentioned as an example Miss Vollette Hope-Panton of Jamaica, a graduate journalist from Bedford's Women's College, Lon- (Continued on Page Fifteen) County Builds Gallows To Keep Out Ghosts Associated Negro Press— Montgomery City, Mo.—Fear that the ghost of the executed man will return to haunt the place of execution, the county authorities here authorized the building of a cemetery which can be torn down, to hang James Crump, convicted player Sheriff Chal Blum of Mexico, Mo.

GARVEY APPEAL TO COOLIDGE IS 51 PAGES Application For Executive Pardon Attacks Afro-American And First Wife ADMITS CONFERENCE WITH K. K. K. LEADER Imprisoned Leader Agrees To Leave U. S. After Straightening Business Atlanta, Ga.—Marcus Garvey, provisional president of Africa, sentenced to the federal penitentiary for using the mails to defraud, has written to President Coolidge expressing a willingness to leave the United States. Garvey's statement which comprises a document of 51 closely typed pages, is an appeal to the President for executive clemency. The application for pardon is a savage attack on the N. A. A. C. P., the Crisis and its editor, Dr. W. E. E. DuBois. Editorials of the "venal" Negro press led by the Baltimore AFRO-AMERICAN are scathingly denounced. Attacks Wife Those who have seen the document, however, were surprised to note Garvey's attack also on a woman. She is his first wife, whom he describes as "Amy Ashwood, sometimes known as Amy Ashwood Guthrie," "Mary Guthrie," or Garvey, a woman of tender and questionable virtue." Talked With Klan Leader Mr. Garvey admits having had a two-hour conference with Edward Clark, white, imperial emperor of the Ku Klux Klan in the Imperial Palace here, but denies being a one hundred per center. He claims his meeting was for the purpose of "officially learning what the klan stood for." He adds as "the leader of the Negro race of the world" he was justified in this move. Garvey claims the report that he was working for and with these people prejudiced the judge, jury and prosecution, "most of whom were Jews or Catholics," thereby preventing him from securing a fair trial. Garvey admits not being naturalized, but claims to have secured his first papers. Agroes To Leave U. S. In the statement also, he denies that his offense is a deportable one, but as the order of deportation has been signed, he agrees to leave without protest provided. "given reasonable time to straighten out all of my many business affairs," Garvey also claims to be suffering from bromeliad asthma. This is an otherwise alleged why pardon should be granted.

Slavery A Mistake, Race To Disappear In 500 Years Killed Sweetheart; Nerve Failed When He Tried Suicide Pleasantville, N. J.-Andrew Harmon, alias Henry Smith, of 233 Nassau street, Philadelphia, admitted to local police yesterday afternoon that he shot his flance, Mamie Campbell, 24, of Elmhurst, N.J., and Eric Patterson, an unfit City hospital suffering from a bullet wound in the forehead. "Tes, I shot her intentionally, and am not sorry I did it." Harmon said to Police Recorder William B. Stephens yesterday afternoon. He asked she to the girl Harmon and Stephens that it was over a love-offair. "My plans didn't go through because of the passengers on the train, or there would have been two bodies to pick up instead of one, or that he was going to commit suicide after shooting Miss Campbell, but when he found she wasn't dead, he decided to escape. Miss Campbell, who was the face of Harmon, is in a dying condition, according to the doctors. Doctors said she cannot live. The bullet entered her forehead between the eyes and took a downward course into her neck. WOULD SELL BROWN & STEVENS FIXTURES PHILLY BANK RECEIVER SEEKS CONTROL OF N. Y. REALITY Philadelphia, Pa.—In an effort to raise bigger assets for depositors of the defunct private bank of Brown & Stevens, which was closed last February, Herman N. Schwartz, white, the receiver in bankruptcy, has prepared special petitions asking the Federal Court's permission to sell furniture, fixtures and otherwise equipment in the main office at 427 South Broad street, and a branch at 5335 Market street. The receiver also hopes to recover additional assets through acquisition of E. C. Brown's stock, in two New York-Realty organizations which operate apartment houses in New York. Mr. Schwartz will file his first report and contemplates on calling a meeting of creditors early in September. Meantime hearings will continue by David W. Amram, referee in bankruptcy. Henry L. Hynemann, counsel for the receiver, said that the recent accrual said that he has rumored that the depositors would receive ten cents on the dollar was not correct. He stated that it is impossible at this time to foretell when or how much the depositors will receive, intimating that the affairs cannot be cleared up until fall. Va.

Williamsburg, Va.—"If the present rate of mixed birth continues, America will become a mullate nation within 500 years," declared Dr. W. A. Plecker, white, state registrar, and state commissioner to the students of the William and Mary summer session. "The mater is one of momentous consequence and only two solutions are possible: Complete amalgamation or complete separation of the two races. There is not middle course and there can be none," declared the speaker, citing as the reason for fate which ultimately befell them.

The scheme is responsible for the theft of over 40 cars, valued at over $22,500, and would have netted fully twice that amount had it not been revealed through their own admissions. The thieves, dressed in jazz band uniforms, following their arrests while playing in the Deppes orchestra at Cedar Point, O., did not look the part they really had played as they detailed how easily they fooled the police. They answered to the names of William Shorter and Chas. Dyson, both of Pittsburgh. Schome Is Explained The Dyson-Shorter Motor corporation had no regular place of business, has not issued a share of stock and did not own a motor car—except stolen ones, which did not remain long in their possession. The thieves, as outlined to detectives, who captured Shorter and Dyson, after months of search over the entire country, appears simple, the detectives refused to agree that it was simple and insist that it was worked out only through the mind of Shorter, who, they say, is a master croaker.

"The incarceration of Marcus Garvey, who advocated the deportation of African Americans to Africa, was brought about principally by influential mutilations of the North," he stated. "The importation of slaves in 1619 was the greatest mistake in the history of the nation and inaugurated a problem of increasing menace." The matter of racial integrity is now one which now concerns the nations at large, he affirmed. "The problem is a highly complex one and the opposition is deeply intense. We have dodges for position enough. The reason for opposition has arrived. Some solution is inevitable," he said in conclusion." Fortunes Are Found through wise real estate transactions.

A Market Place for the People Read for Proft—Use for Results RACE SALESMEN PROPOSED FOR FOREIGN TRADE Whites Abrupt, Impatient And Unable To Understand Oriental Mind RACE LABOR BEST BUY SAYS HARDWARE KING Cleveland,—Salvation of American trade int he Orient is the Negro salesman, according to Charles A. Adams, president of the Cleveland Hardware Company, the largest drop forge plant in the United States employing about 2,000 persons. "We aren't getting our share of that trade," claimed Adams, "because we haven't got the kind of salesmen who can get under the Orientals' skin. White American salesmen, are too abrupt, impatient and totally unable to understand the Orientals' attitude toward life. "The educated Negro will be the ideal man for the job. He is apt, perceptious and knows how to ingratiate himself into the Oriental's confidence." "Our experience with the Negro was simplified by the fact that the majority of our workers are foreign-born, who do not have the same prejudice as native whites," said Adams. In 1917, the foreign-born represented 80 per cent of our customers, about the same percentage as prevailed in the population of the entire city. Future For Negroes "But, with the present immigration laws in effect, in another generation the employees of this industrial district will be 75 per cent Negro." Adams said the garage department is typical of the turnover in Negro. That department is in full charge of George Winn, a Negro. He is responsible for 21 trucks and 10 drivers. Winn has been with the company 10 years, and nine drivers have been there more than four years. Production records show the Negro fully as efficient as the central European. The fastest press hard the company has ever had is a Negro girl, Amelia McIdde. Two of the most important positions a hardware manufacturing concern are those of head chemist and metallurgist. At the Cleveland Hardware Company, both are filled by Negroes. Miss Isabell Walden is head chemist. She is a graduate of Fisk university. E. McMillan is metallurgist. Though possessed of a splendid technical education, he started at the Cleveland Hardware Company, as a common laborer. From Southern Colleges Fifteen students' from Tuskegee and other southern Negro colleges, are working in the plant during the holidays. This is done every summer. "One of the reasons the Negro is the most profitable labor," said Adams. "Is that many educated men are willing to start at the very bottom here to get away from the South. They win jobs of responsibility as fast as race prejudice will allow." E. E. Adams, a brother, general superintendent of the plant, declared the Negro was the best buy in the market today. SECOND EDITION In Maryland; 10c Elsewhere. Inst. ANGLO-SAXON CLUB WARS ON HAMPTON INST. Too Much Social Equality To Suit Virginia Trouble Makers REAL EFFORT IS TO HALT CONTRIBUTIONS Leading Southerners Asked Not To Aid Endowment Fund Drive Richmond, Va. A move is on foot to discourage leading white Southerners giving to Hampton Institute's $5,000,000 endowment fund drive, on the ground that the school teaches social equality, of the races. The fight is headed by the James Saxon Club, which has sent letters to the southern whites, asking them to withdraw their names from the Hampton Endowment Fund Committee. Little Appreciation Little apprehension is felt concerning this move at the institute because the five million fund is raised all to $500,000, and this amount can be raised far easier in the north than in the south. Last week John D. Rockefeller turned over his pledge of $1,000,000 and D. E. Kestman will add his two millions, making the fund $7,000,000 to be divided between Hampton and Tuskegee. Preaching and Practicing The Anglo-Saxons charges against Hampton states that Hampton preaches and practices racial equality. Specific reference is made to the fact that in the school auditorium, the teachers mingle and no special seats are set apart for white teachers, or visitors. Guests and visitors, whether white or black, to Hampton have sleeping accommodations at the same inn and take their meals at the same dining hall. The school is equally by a philanthropist, is used in common by the teachers of both races, as a place to entertain each other or their friends. The Anglo-Saxon Club declares this condition threatens serious consequences to Hampton and to all white Americans to all criticisms, Dr. J. E. Sugg, president of Hampton, sent the following statement: "As I have understood the principles and practice of the school—and there has been no essential change in either, to the best of my knowledge, for the past fifty years—there has never been encouragement of the social mingling of the races, under circumstances that would lead to embarrassment on either side." "It should hardly be necessary to aid that association of a romantic nature, such as could concecably lead to intermarriage is contrary to the wishes and the judgment of the overwhelming majority of Negroes as of white persons, and in our experience is effectively prevented nine times out of ten by even keeper watchfulness on the part of our colored people than is always exercised by others. Tries to Be Courteous and Fate "The institute exists to help the Negro race and to serve the whole nation. It has simply tried to be courteous and fair on the one hand to its white friends, both of the North and of the South, and on the other hand to its Negro constituents. The latter hand is from all three parties is any indication of approximate justice, we have had that measure of consolation. "It cannot imagine that any thoughtful person could advocate the amalgamation of widely diverse races, or would maintain that this amalgamation would place without sanction of law and morality. All of us know that for such amalgamation has an always positive effect to blight. The more his self-respect is built up, the greater his gain in intelligence, sound character, and economic independence, the deeper will be his natural pride in his own General Armstrong "Such have been the objects of the kind of education which has been given at Hampton Institute by General Electric at Tuskegee by Dr. Washington and Dr. Moton. It is our hope that it may help to enable the United States ever to have a society of different races can live and work happily side by side conserving the best tradition of each group: in mutual respect and, in kindness. "I am taking the liberty of sending a copy of Homer L. Ferguson and Frank W. Darling—with whom I wholeheartedly discussed the whole question."

DURKEE SAYS HE WILL WELCOME PROBE BY CONGRESS IN ITS NEXT SESSION Howard President, Termed Inefficient And Revengeful, Denies He Called Dean Kelly Miller A Contemptible Puppy. Says Nothing About Firing Teachers And Deans Or Assaulting Dr. Thomas W. Turner. DERKEE STATEMENT Associated legal counsel President J. Stanley Durkee of Dowell University, whom alumni associations all over the country have called upon to resign gave him the welcome he had welcomed a congressional investigation of the university administration. He also denied calling, Dean Kelly Miller, "a contemptible statement failed to mention the President's assault upon Dr. Thomas W. Turner, his reasons for changing the course of study, ousting Deans from the University of Deans' Kelly Miller and George Cook. DURKEEISM AND HOWARD UNI VERSITY By Alumnus The last article pointed to Dr. Durkee's ignorance of pedagogy, and his absence of educational experience, when he became president. With the trustees made such a selection is a secret worth learning. No modern age or the Delphinian Oracle itself can unravel this mystery. You must be a college for the pedagogical training of students, preparing to become teachers, when they do not believe in such training for their president. By being at the conclusion that the least trained of their employees should be at the head? Any President Good Enough One thing is certain: that in the education of the trustees to the education of the colored youth Their action in appointing and rotating Dr. Durkee as president of Howard University shows their ability to be good enough for colored students. To make the farce complete, they should establish a course, in the College of Education, in the training of Dr. Durkee offer the course. **Years And Years** It takes a teacher to train a colored educator to a stage at which his efforts will bring him a yearly salary of $2,000. A white man, with no educational training, will be the very top of a colored university and command a yearly salary of $10,000. Where is the equity? Where is the justice? And shall we sit silent under such gross imposition, feeling this cutting injustice, without raising our voices against it? Soft Pension Berth Has Howard University no other function than to furnish a soft pension berth for ministers? If not, we crave a term of office for some of our students. In there no trustee of Howard University, who has the courage to face the public with a straight-from-the shoulder exposition of Dr. Durkee's merits as president of Howard University? In the last month or so, the reader has been thoroughly Involved in a demerits. What about his merits? Hts Merlta Since Howard University is maintained by public funds, we have a right to know why a person, so known as a Curry, has certain qualifications of a college president, was selected for this responsible position, and why in the face of certain circumstances he is permitted to retain his position. For at least a year, the public was cajoled into the belief that Curry can succeed himself. Whether himself gave such an impression, or it was erroneously concluded by the Committee on Appointment, the provailing opinion was raised money for Howard University. Trustees Hazy The trustees' minds may become a little hazy about this now, but enough uncleavage who are frank enough to bear witness to this assertion that Dr. Durkee was represented as a "wonderful money-getter." It was this supposed quality that inspired the trustees to offer him $3,000 more per annum than had previously been the prior president of Howard University. Job On Their Hands If the trustees now declare that they did not have such an idea in mind, they will certainly be worse. So some of the trustees who were trained by them selected a man without training as an educator or administrator. His success with congress was not due to his lack of experience. There was no special reason why he should make an impression on Congress, for he was not used for congressional appurpations. Wonderful Discovery Bo as charitable as you please, the trustees thought that they had made a mistake, instead of getting a gold nugget, they got the proverba gold brick, and they are not going to cast aside their costly purchase. The only feasible retort to this persistent query about the trustees congressional appropriations have been greatly increased under Dr. Durkee. This reduced to its lowest terms, and has secured needed buildings. Brick Nor Mortar Neither brick nor mortar makes a great university. It takes a faceted approach to great schools. Poor teachers make poor schools. A weak president cannot lead a strong faculty. A weak president cannot survive under a strong president. The initial step to be taken in building a strong university is to attract and hold a strong teaching doctor. Dr. Durkice has not been able to do. Starvation Salaries The condition of the professors at Howard University has not been improved since they still being paid. Even when congress appropriated money for induction, they were mistreated. These are not the words of the writer. A printed pamphlet, issued by fifty-four instructors, is responsible for this assertion. No Assured Tenure Worse than this, the instructors have no assured tenure of office. They may be dropped, without heartbreak, or have no serious reasons. The shameful treatment of Deans Miller and Cook, and of Professors Locke, Lochard, Alonzo Brown, and Thornton, gives the picture of a professors' life under From the university of academic freedom, it has degenerated into a veritable plantation, where slaves must get food, master, or suffer the consequences. Almed At Foes The fondest rules of Dr. Durkee have been most foxed and foe. His so-called reforms have been based upon the same principle. Let the most idolatrous worshipper of Dr. Durkee measure that he has ever urged for the professors as a whole. His seven years have been consumed by his professors and clashes with his professors, and such clashes are not ended. There are fresh storms brewing. If, therefore, the trustees wish to urge Dr. Durkee's administration has brought, more brick and mortar, they must be reminded that the very essence of a truly great institution crushed out of shape. Let us all concede that in buildings Howard is somewhat better off, but in morals, it is in the worst shape of his No Improvement No improvement is in sight. Dr. Durkee has lost his faculty, his students, and his alumni. He cannot not weigh these losses. If Dr. Durkee's retention were put to a vote by the faculty, he would hardly poll more than three votes; and if the dalton were secret even this number would be greater. Alumut Diligent In order to save their Alma Mater, the alumni are most diligent in demanding President Durkee's resignation, the move to the university, and student body departed, with the avowed threat that they intended to strike in the fall. Conditions are so chaotic that peace cannot possibly result. If Dr. Durkee Experimentation The trustees, therefore, should weigh against whatever success Dr. Durkee has had in getting buildings, and even though he has failed in failure to raise money, his hospitable experimentation in the foreign field of education, and his damage done to the morale of the teaching faculty, his influence is spent. His only gate of deliverance from his well earned embarrassment is resignation. The longer he holds this up, the longer Howard can be in retaliation for its equilibrium. Incompetency In another particular, Dr. Durkee has proved his incompetence to lead the attacker. He cannot break opposition. An opinion contrary to his is interpreted as a challenge to his authority, an impulse to be punish the offender. Irritable Temper One of the greatest misfortunes that can befall any administrator is to be under the dominance of subordinates. Subordinates will interfere to his subordinates is even worse. A college president who can not control his temper ought to quit his job. Weak administrators wear their authority on their sleeve, evidently to be plucked at, for such is usual in administrators never have to make resources to their authority. They have a hidden power that will co-operate with their leadership. Feeble administrators drive strong administrators lead. A lack of co-operation is as often upon the leader as upon the led. Glaringly Weak Only a glaringly weak administrator needs all the power that Dr Durkee wields. If he fears embarrassments, he should look to himself for the cause. His general ignorance of university matters, though handsome, does not likely to attract genuine cooperation or unjustified genius. Easily Epsct Dr. Durkee is too easily upset. His ear is too ready for gossip. When he said that he had "a hundred ears and a hundred eyes. He revealed a two real eyes. Two real ears that hear the educational demands of a progressive age, and two real eyes that pedagogical vision, are enough for any college president. A greater number of places where a teacher is required biological characters. Howard University needs a modern president. Adverse Criticism No leader from the Messiah down to Marcus Garvey has escaped adverse criticism. He need not exert excessive pressure. He occasionally cabbage or turnip will be aimed his way. If a man in a responsible position has time to chase rumors as a child chases butterflies, he is surely advertising his job. As a minister, Durkee has paid too much attention to petty matters, while the graver ones have escaped him. "In this respect, he has not out-grown his village training. A big chasm between him and real leadership Anger Spontaneous Anger with him is spontaneous. Even his language becomes abusive. Search far and wide, and it will be difficult to find someone who is president so unmindful of the dignity of his position as to call a deam "a contemptible puppy," or to assault one of his professors. Such behavior might be expected of an latex inhaler in a scrape over matrastomies, not of a dignified college president. Nerro Disturbing The office of a college president, like that of any other high official, is nerve-disturbing; but annoyances are a par for his job. If a man does not out of him, he does not want a high administrative position. Annoyances are one form of the taxes that his men pay for holding big jobs. Truly pressure, resort to abusive language and ply their fists. Epithefs Suppose the professors should emulate their leader and hurl vile epithets at their students, with an occasional biff in the jaw, whenever annoyances tried their patience should become of Howard University. Baltimore, Md. There are times 'when students are much more annoying than deans but never should a professor's staffer come from his judgement. Durkee does not expect an satisfactorily his action on those two memorable occasions when he "puppled" Dean Miller and "solar-plexus" Prof. Turner. Minister Educated minister of the Christian Gospel, and devoted for years to that most worthy calling Dr. Durkee has naturally developed a judicial temperament. Ministers in a sense, are judges. They pass on the law, are judges. One in a cultured congregation ever rises to dispute the minister. Everybody accepts, for the time being at least, any dogma that is uttered in this subservient light. He must minister an obvious advantage in putting over his point. The educator has no such reverence paid his views. On the contrary, there is always present a doubling of trust in teachers and educators. Educators are like book agents in the matter of selling their wares. A truly great educator is sure to succeed in putting over his dogma because of his problem in advance and can defend it against all onslaughts. Off His Balance Dr. Durkeus's sudden change from a reverential to a critical audience at Harvard University had he known his new problem, results not have been so disastrous. In a way, his career at Howard University has been a success. Had he known his new problem, some one place placed into his hand, what must have been represented to him as an ideal scheme. Without knowing how to evaluate it himself, he was forced to forge an entry into law. Another adviser comes along now and tells him that the scheme is unworkable. He rushes back to the trustees and recommends that the contracted study is never necessary. The most pathetic feature of Dr. Durkee's stormy career at Howard in his inability to profit by his many blunders has no aptitude for this educational business. He cannot see the professor's point of view because he has never been one. A longer tenure would have made him undesirable harm to the university. He ought to resign, for his apprenticeship has been a failure. Concentrating If he had spent his time wisely in concentrating, he would to make sure there would have been more sympathy for him now, in his hour of distress; but instead of concentrating on his howard job, he concentrated on another institution five hundred miles away. And the worst feature of his second presidency was his acknowledgement of the policy of his school not to admit colored applicants. Nothing Wrong The fact that the trustees could see nothing wrong with this divided administration of their president, indicates very clearly that they cannot have a lofty opinion of the university. When they voted such permission, they belittled the education of the president of Howard University had time enough on his hand to administer the affairs of another school. They insulted him when they permitted their president to preside over a school that barred colored students. Untying Fame Had the students of Howard struck because Dr. Durkee, his president, also president of a Negro-hating institution, they would have won undying fame. Although conditions were unbearable the time at Howard, the two-cuts rule was less Ragrant than Dr. Durkee's race-insulting action in presiding over a school which barred members of their race. End Durkee Resigned If Dr. Durkee resigned before the press forced his action, he might have made a play for some of his lost prestige, but he displayed a genuine interest that school and adhered Only the relentless attacks of the press drove him from that school, for this reason, he was never regain his campus with buildings, his usefulness to his colored constituents is gone forever. Situation At Fisk The reader must not lose sight of the situation at Fisk. He had been a college president, and close to a college presidency. He had been a college professor. He knew education. He was equipped in scholarship with a experience to preside over a university. It was not necessary for him to employ any expert to tell what was wrong with his institute, but he had managed to force himself into his problem. More than this, he raised the largest endowment fund that had ever been raised for a Negro college. But with all these assets he failed. Dr. McKenzie failed because he became so inoculated with southern prejudice that his restitution of colored man and professor became such that no self-respecting Negro could tolerate. Regardless of his obvious assets, his usefulness ceased the minute his point of view of self-respecting Negroes. No Standing Dr. Durkee's assets, compared with those of Dr. McKenzie, have no standing. With public funds to help to make his burdens light, Mr. McKenzie activity in financing the higher education for Negro students. From the standpoint of material worth, he must be considered equally likely reason for sending Dr. McKenzie adrift; but the real worth of a president of a Negro university must not be measured in terms of material gains. Manhood Whenever the administration ceases to surpass manhood and manpower, it must attract henchmen as subordinates, it becomes time for colored men and women, regardless of their economic hodge, to rise and smite the ane- Minister Educator Of His Balance Inability To Profit Concentrating Nothing Wrong Undying Famo Hod Burkee Resigned Situation At Flsk McKenzie Failed No Standing Manhood NAL CA ROBE T SESSION Does He Called Dean Tiring Teachers And Humiliates Scholars If Dr. Durkee's recent actions in humiliating outstanding scholars of the race and their shaming attempt have been admirable, colored students are not add more represehensible than any of the insults the writer would like to know why not. If colored people will tolerate such treatment, they will receive the same treatment themselves to blame. The first law in race development and solidarity is to know when the race is insulted, and the proper means of resentment. On Any Other Race If Dr. Durkee had turned such a trick on any other race but the Negro race, he would have been on a permanent vacation long before this time. The light should not be allowed to enter the race developing agency cry out for the retirement of Dr. Durkee from the presidency of Howard Universal.[15] The next article will treat Dean Kelly Miller's case. The crushing of this illustrious scholar and leader is a thrust at Negro manhood. BIRTH RATE HIGH FOR WEEK There were 62 births reported in the week ending July 20th.

NO ACTION AGAINST USE OF PHOTOGRAPHS Civil Service Commission Awaited Protest From Postal Alliance BUT CONVENTION KILLED RESOLUTION Delegates Got Word President Intends To Issue Executive Order AFRO Bureau Washington, D. C. — The United States Civil Service Commission will take no action on the question of abolishing the use of photographs as a means of identification until the National Alliance of Postal Employees convenes held in the national convention between in some manner places the subject before the commission, says William C. Denning, president of the Alliance. Resolution Expunged Mr. Denning, however, is under the impression that the Alliance adopted a resolution criticizing the use of photographs and that it will sooner or later present the question of Civil Service Commission officially. Upon investigation it was learned that this resolution was expunged in the session of the Alliance when it was stated that President Goodidge would issue an executive order abolishing the use of photographs as a means of identification. The issuance of such an executive order is regarded by government officials as very improbable, inasmuch the commission believes that the use of photographs is the only effective and practicable means of identification, and would hardly recommend the substitution of the finger-print method. Commission's Views The views of the Civil Service Commission, with respect to the use of photographs, lettering, and former president of the National Alliance of Postal Employees, who took up this question with the president. His letters were referred to the commission which replied in part as follows: "There seems to be no question that identification is necessary in connection with examinations for the commission's experience before and after the requirement of photographs has proved this point. The identification is necessary to prevent impersonation in examinations, which is frequent before the use of photographs." "The Commission adopted the use of photographs because it seemed the only effective and practicable means of identification. The use of photographs is essential to the services of experts. The commission's examinations are held, and appointments therefrom are made at approximately 3,500 cities and towns, sometimes in rural communities. The Commission also general adoption of the finger-print system by the Civil Service Commission. The Commission also holds examinations in the Philippines, Porto Rico, the Canal Zone, Haiti, and Algeria. The Commission represent many races, including Indians. "Of course, there is no discrimination against Negroes in the examinations. The commission has evidence of his racial background in each appointment. If however, appointing officers do discriminate against Negroes now, they could also do so. The commission would set aside altogether, or if some other means of identification were substituted for photographs. Under the civil-servant law, the appointing officer may exercise his prerogative of choice when making appointments. See Eligibles "Appointing officers before defending the commission usually endeavor in acquaint themselves with the eligible certificate, beyond the information included in the examination papers and the ap- It is believed that postmasters without exception require the eligibles to appear for an oral interview before appointment for this because almost without exception the eligibles live in or very near the city in which the appointments are to be made. The same situation obtains in the case of railway postal clerks the registrants are made up by States and it is entirely practicable for the railway postal official to interview the eligibles before offering appointment. "The use of photographs by the Civil Service Commission for the purpose of establishing identity and preventing impersonation in examinations is the only available effective method."

Spiritualism Questions and Answers in Spiritual Philosophy Based on the Fundamentals of Orthodox Christianity. By DR. THOMAS R.

According to the instructions given to the woman of Samarra by the Master Jesus, we have evidence of the fundamental nature of God, according to the authorized version, thus narrowing the divine being with the limitations of individual you, according to the author's Greek诗: "the all-spirit" or "Universal Spirit.

The Country R. Whitney, of R. Whitney, is now serving his seventh consecutive term and the lodge claims that he is the best in the country. Their Deputy, J. Lobatte, and Thomas Moore, keeper of records and seals, visited the office of the AFRO-AFMR-CAN, relative to the Grand Lodge session, to be held in Albany, N. X. The largest issue to come before the Grand Lodge is the reduction of the tax. This taxation has nearly bankrupted most of the lodges in the State. All of the Phyllas in the State are members of the taxation issue. It is claimed that at least 25 percent of the membership has fallen off because of the stiff taxation this The issue may be the cause for shaking out most of the Grand Lodge officers who are responsible for this chaot condition. Sir Lee Crawford, Grand Chancellor of the State, has declared that he believes a reduction of taxes will pass at the Grand Lodge session. Resolutions are being presented from Majestic Lodge, No. 7, to reduce the unfair taxation, also resolutions cutting the votes of the Grand Lodge officers from three to one. The many votes given to the Grand Lodge officers has been hampering the order in general. Delegates began leaving New York, Saturday. However, the largest group left Sunday on the 10.10. to Albany. In greater New York there are 22 lodges. Some of the delegates to leave were: J. R. B. Whitney, Chancellor Commander; J. B.

Mr. Whippier assumed charge of the property, which is now undergoing a renovation, immediately upon his retirement from the stage company of the "Tiger" company of the Colonial theatre, New York. He is the son of a famed man of the reconstruction days, is well educated, has attended Howard University, was one of the original officials of the Ethiopian theatre, and chairman of the board of the Dressing Room Club, a New York theatrical organization. Seats 1,700 The house, which seats 1,700 people, will be thrown open to the public on August 29th, when sixteen of the white acts, will be presented in conjunction with a film. The house staff will include a stage crew composed of former employees of the LaFayette theatre New York, where they were trained Sam Craig, the dean of Negro theater groups. A seven piece orchestra has been contracted for the season. Tencroons Please The Tenorcon Jubilee Singers were recalled to the Little Island outside of Annapolis last Saturday, "Oh Mary Don't You Weep," "Holy Unto the Lord," "Standin' In The Need of Prayer," and "Hand Me Down the Trumpet Gabriel."

The dates with other guests will be secured will be played next month.

Equipped with plenty of heart interest, handsomely photographed and well directed, "Her Husband's Secret" at the Regent next Friday and Saturday will entertain you. In the picture's early stages we are transported to the 1900 period, when the mistresses in their houseware are reproduced with pleasing accuracy of the child's likeness in that then known Karen, a pleasure loving husband, is separated by him from her boy and begins the long wait of twenty-five years which elapses before fate brings her face to face with her son. Sentimental interest holds sway for the greater part of the picture, the mistresses in their houseware are reproduced with pleasing accuracy of the child's likeness in that then known Karen, a pleasure loving husband, is separated by him from her boy and only sustained and comforted throughout the lonely years by the loyal friendship of Ross Brewster, whose elvishy is proof against the criticisms of the outside world. The surprise twist comes when Judy Brewster's daughter, introduces her twin Elliott, who turns up to be Mrs. Karen, also the melodramatic portion of the narrative beings to develop, for Owen is in serious trouble, having been mixed up in a crooked financial scheme, not altogether through his own faith, and sees jail facing him.

In a fit of desperation the youth leaps over a cliff. He is found by Brewster, badly hurt, but still living, and in the finale matters are satisfactorily adjusted and everyone is happy. There is a decided thrill in the episode showing Owen's attempt at suicide, which goes a long way toward establishing sympathy for the luckless lad who, after all, is disposed by the laws of heredity. Autumn Moreno and Patsy Ruth Miller do excellent work in the reading rules. Don't overlook "New Toys" on Monday and Tuesday or "My Wife and brother" on Thursday. You'll find comedies, series plu- ches, and games, treats, management, crafts, weekends, art classes. Dunbar Plays "Golden Bed"—Monday. Tuesday This one is the story of a southern beauty and the men she trapped. "The Golden Red" is a picture crowded with human interest, thrills, pathos and elaborate setting. Also it has a cost than can hardly be surpassed. The picture is from the novel by Wallace Twain and Coel D Miller has directed it with great skill. He has brought out all to the highlights and has lost no opportunity to make this production one of great interest. The picture is replete with gorgeous settings and beautiful scenic shots. A highlight is the candy ball. Tons of candy were used to produce the settings. The huge candy skirts and cames and the baskets of candy flowers and the shimmering from them, are beautiful. In the garden is a huge pogoda made entirely of candy. Laitoque demolishes it in a lit of anger. Lillian Rich has done the best work of her career in this production. As the untrue wife she is called upon to play a part that sets the audience against her. However, her acting in her last scene is such that she commands sympathy. Lillian Lequeux as the Candy Man, is well cast. Wednesday "Drawn At Sight," Thursday, "The Cloud Rider," Friday, "Love Masher." REGENT John Mason's "Go Getter" Company of 15 people is the attraction here this week. A commendable feature is a consistent list that has to do with ladies of varying hues. Mason is his own "bonnie and skilful" wife, all that he assigned himself to the Monday customers seemed to be a little cool at the opening, but before the piece had progressed very far they registered their approval in no uncertain manner. "Bobby" Covington warbled Dixie Dreams in a manner which Miss Florence Mills might not have noticed. The artist careful training. The audience demanded and received two repetitions. The same success attended Miss Covington's "Dear Old Southland." "Bluch" Melonean is the straight and stage manager and is extremely clever in both ends of his job, not only having invented one number. The customers insisted on more and were obliged. Mrs. Allen of the team of Allen and Allen proved that she had a voice. Her singing and reading of lines were one of the most delightful performances. One for the most enjoyable 60 minutes that the Regent has afforded this season. If you are not thin skinned and don't object to a harmless play on complexion see the cashier. "I little Quaker." Willie Be Louch, Little Marie, Mrs. Mary Wood Mason and Perry and Perry are the other members of the company.

Brown's Grove Brown's Grove despite many counter-attractions on last Sunday seemed play host to as many customers as at any other time of the season. The number of visitors to the city due to the two antisocial businesses doubled responsibility for the distribution of pleasure seekers. There are many more dates to be played before the Favorite ends her excursion season. Friday, Hunters Creek O. O. makes the daylight trip. The AFRO-AMERICAN employees will have the Saturday date.

MORE GARVEY MORE GARVEY (Continued from Page 1) All Prejudiced Garvey claims in papers that trial judge, department of justice, postal authorities, and circuit court of appeals were all prejudiced. The trial was conducted in an unfair manner. The judge is a member of a rival organization called N. A. A. C. P. Prosecutor, and enemy press, chief of which are Chicago Defender and Afro-American, had a peculiar relation. These papers were able to accurately forecast every move of the prosecution. Pronouns, "I" and "my" occur more than two hundred times in this remarkable document. "I never claimed to be a 'Messiah'." The title of Moses was bestowed upon me by Moses was bestowed upon by colorful court articles, this because the appeal court decision said Garvey may have honestly believed himself a Moses and Messiah." "Amy Ashwood, an alien, illegally admitted to this country, tried to remove furniture and furnishings from my apartment. I believe this was at the instigation of the prosecutor." (This occurred while Garvey was enroute to Atlanta.) Every great character, from Conductus to Krin,the Riflan, is mentioned, among them Mohammad, Gossar, Washington, Louis 16, Lincoln, Stephens, Parkhurst, Harding and others. Evidently the idea is to place himself among the immortals. Quotes "America" Excerpts from many sources are used, including a stanza from "My Country," 'Tis of Thee.' It is entirely a mass of vilification, explanation and justification, defies and grogologies. In the summary he says, "I am not guilty," that suggests that the government "use some of the hundreds of vessels lying file to remove the Negroes to Africa."

My, how the advent of the Favorite, Brown's Grove, Wonderland and other amusement resorts have wrought a change in the summer recreational activities of the young folk of Baltimore. Twenty-five years ago furniture moving wagons were the conveyances to transport Sunday Schools, lodges and other organization plenies to Drulid Hill Park for annual mounting. In the wagon, usually drawn by two horses, were two benches placed lengthwise. On these seats children and their grownup attendants sat. For the occasion the wagons were decorated with red, white and blue bunting. The route was usually out Eutau Place through the Madison Avenue to Drulid Hill Park circle the Lake and to Number 3 Grove which were made for colored gatherings. Refreshment was secured by ticket, the same being ice-cream from the late John Minnis. A barrel of lemonade and plates of cake completed the treat. Each child usually was forearmed with a shoe box in which regressed sandwiches of a distinctly substantial nature. None of your dainty lettuce and tomato delicacies of today. Some unfortunates who had no lunch were generously provided for from the substance of their lucky brothers and sisters, and treated to ice-cream and cake by persuading but kindly Sunday School or lodge committees as the case might be. Some "wise" Mats often managed to repeat on the ice-cream, cake and lemonade, but if detected were "bawled" out before everyone. Basketball, catchers, croquet and racing constituted the athletic activities all those who were able to participate after eating their lunches and ice cream. The return trip was made about six P. M. Frantic calls were broadcast for strangers, and when all had been "rounded up" the horses drew them homeward. Singnig and returning the jibes and peers of small white boys and girls enlivened the return trip. Not so "hey pij" say the cowboys and "flampers" of today. Perhaps not but—they lasted a long time then. Cautonsville was also reached in the same manner, and was talked about on the Leviathan to Liverpool. Some progressive churches made the parchly on chartered trolley cars, but none was as enjoyable as a seat in the wagon of Mr. Adams, Meyers, Wise, Mitchell, Hawkins, Turner or "Him Webb."

Wonderland The new Whip at Wonderland Park was run in operation on Sunday and delighted the thousands of visitors who visited the resort. All of the unimusement devices were removed and the many faces were wreathed in smiles that could have only been occasioned by the clink of silver in thrills.

He further stated: If I had not acted promptly before the close of the show on Thursday, none unchallenged and irreproducible damage would have resulted tooughran Delaney by Referee Nolan. I said to Baron and Al Garfield, the judge, the accused shooter, that he would have given a draw, because the first in my onion was close to Joe Smith and Tommy Loughran came to me after they had dressed and that I preferred to discuss given a "draw deal." I first said to them that I favored reversing the decision and that I preferred to discuss it with Mr. Rocup before taking the action. "tomorrow" would be too late to prevent further injury to his fielding team, already been made and the newspapers would print it. After thinking it up, Babe B. O'Rourke, and had him announce the reeveal of the decision to a fair decision under the circumstances of the torrential rainstorm prevented his night showing to his best advantage. Crookedness I was the only Commissioner pres Mr. Rocap was in Atlantic City, New Jersey, for night for several months broadcasting sports information. He is a businessman, he should have left his personal business to him for. It, too, was in Atlantic City Thursday on personal business, I returned here in time for the show, because I felt it my duty to ring the蛤斯 for two hours in that rainstorm with him in the time limper and referred soaked to the skin. in an inch of dirt, doing my duty, and didn't regret it. Unfair Declarations If he considered that I could handle the affair, then he ought not to seize the newsman happened to emotionally deceased, when flagrantly unfair deceased or referees, as in the recent Danny Kramer-Bobby Gareau and hurt him, and he said he thought they were just right. He had some reason for his views, but he did not express it to me. Numerous times have I indulged in such actions, he cautioned or chastised for their errors or favoritism. Maybe the public or any whistleblower have had much effect. I am tired of such dereliction of duty and do not intend to be shamed for upholding it. $1200 Prize To Auto Racer Indianapolis, Ind.—Up to August, a year ago, a young man among the group was practically an unknown sport.

If he is in earnest, let him cable Wills for his consent; Harry will still look at the Aps any time to get a close-up of Dempsey. Reversed Suppose the cases were somewhat reversed: suppose that Jack Johnson, when asked to three or four years dodging some big white boxer of the standings of Harry Wills. Every commission would have humiliated Johnson and given the title to the white man, or to some white man. Under the circumstances Jack Johnson would have been the laughter of people, including his own black folk. Almost any robbery is good moral in American law, and the action of the New York Boxing Commission shows courage and cleanness. But other state commission would follow the example. It would seem that, in spite of his Nordic complex, even the American white man would come to the end of defending such an awardee wardrice in the boxing contest.

Champion Dodger Declares He Will Meet Wills In Title Bout September 1926 MANY BOXING CRITICS SAY HE IS STALLING Sport Authorities Disagree As To Truth Of Statement Made By Champion New York, N. Y.—Sport writers and boxing critics are divided on the question as to whether Dempsey will fight Burry Aftis in his championship bout next year or ever. Dempsey says he is willing to meet Wills next September which doesn't mean a thing as he has been saying that for the last four years, and whenever pressed the issue was over, he said the world's "champion dodger" title. European Trip A Flop Dempsey did not receive the occasion expected when he was in London, but in fact he was hardly noticed. European newspapers began to lambast him for his refusal to fight. Harry Wills did not even upfront as he did in the 1930s, one exhibition he was in hardly netted the champion railroad passage to the next town. Dempsey now returns to American shores with the same old rag that he will fight Harry Wills, but first must have seen the means that Jack is in need of some good American dollars, and thinks that the public will fill his purse with a wallop some third rater to a set up. Two Champions Arrive As Dempsey arrives in New York, another fighter arrives in Paris. The American theatrician then tries to be lionized. The Frenchman does he seek publicity, in fact his main object is rest, quietness and seclusion from the public gaze. His name is Harry Wills. His name from Cherbourg, where he arrived on the liner Berengrin. Outside the station here Wills walked into the middle of the national fete celebrations, with blazing illuminations and a crowd of fans. As from the train he was greeted by a great gathering, including many fight fans. "Such a contrast on the reception given the two fighters, he will be purely a vacation trip, he will do no work, or even give an exhibition. Fight Or Quit The New York Boxing Commission has laid down the law to the champion to fight in his next match, or be allowed one or two matches before meeting the Brown Panther. Goffrey, Tunny, or Renault have been suggested as the best fighters expected he will take, something milder. Even the moth-eterned bull of the Pampas, Louis Firpo, will be the champion's end or the purse with Dempsey. A. Fako To prove that Dempsey is only a big fake the first thing he told me was to fight Harry Wills NOW, but he would take until SEPTEMBER, 1928 before he would be actually a real man. He would ring the ring. Which is another way of saying, "give me a chance to meet you, with moving pictures and some soft 'set ups.' I ought to be able to do my September of next year, then I would meet the merry ha-ha for a few more years, or until I am again broke." BOB MILLER INJURED IN AUTO ACCIDENT Helenn, Ark.-Robert G.

The machining in which Miller and the roadway were riding off the roadway and turned somersault several times.

North Eden street, was sentenced to four months in the Baltimore City jail for the larceny of two suits of clothes from a downtown auto, after a hearing in the Criminal Court Tuesday. At the time of his detention at the Central police station, Brown was key from taking his life. He was first cut down from a cross beam, where he hung himself with his belt. Later he was caught trying to cut a wrist with a buckle, which he had removed from his garter. Freed. Then Re-Arrested Released on bail, he was again arrested by officers of the Northwestern District, where he was working in a machine, which had also been left in a car. Brown admitted his connection with the machine case, but declared that he had merely been a man by the name of Diggs. This charge was dismissed but Brown was committed for taking the suits. Buenas Aires—Bill Tate, heavyweight of New York, has been offered $4,000 by Angel Bierces Argentine fight promoter for a 12-round bout with Louis Pfizer to be Buenas Aires, early in September. Tate will receive in addition, all of his expenses. It is said Firpo has agreed to meet Tate for a percentage of the gate receipts. She wants the Hampton Spirit injected into Baltimore schools, and criticizes letters of Dr. Budd and Dr. Bierces as unsportsmankle, and unfair. To the Editor: Constructively interested as I have been in the appointment of a supervisor of our colored public schools, I cannot but deplore the article in your paper of July 15th, with its discourteous headline, and characterized throughout by its violation of all rules of sportsmanlike attack. Its obvious unfairness will no doubt defeat its prejudicial intent. For, there is a large group of Baltimore's colored citizens who believe in right, and justice, and who hold sacred the mandate. "In all things whatsoever, ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them." From an innate spirit of courtesy and kindness, they would wish to accord to the stranger within their gates, the accepted amenities of good breeding, and their low pride is touched by this breach. This group is ready to receive with open mind the administration of the supervisor, and to value, it is upon its demonstrated merit. Certain it is, that if he is able, to inject into our local system as a factor in character-building, that indefinable something which is intuitively the Hampton Spirit," he will contribute immensely to the constructive need of the youth of our community.

SOX MIXED BOUTS WILL BE BARRED IN CAMDEN Jerry Hayes and Frankie Kramer Bout Rumored "Fixed" Before Fight THEN KRAMER FAILED TO KEEP AGREEMENT Hayes Swears, Kramer Hits Low, But Bout Is Finally Won. By Race Boxer The local authorities have instructed the promoters of the Fairview and the Twelfth and Federal halls to make mixed matches in the houts. Where colored fighters are used, both must be of that race. Nothing was said about the whites and whites boxing each other. Fight "Fixed" Jerry Hayes, of Philadelphia, and Frankie Kramer, white, of this city, fought the semi-final of eight matches. Monday there was a story going around that the Kramer-Hayes scrap was "in" or in other words nobody was to get hurt. The story goes further to the effect that Kramer failed to keep his part of the agreement when he let go a terrific left in the second round, and the Kramer-Hayes to see red and the bout became a real battle after that. Both men punched away like a couple of bullets, and about even for the first four rounds. It was then said that the fifth round was about half over when Hayes suddenly loose some protrusions and was heard all over the grounds and resulted in the crowd vigorously panning Hayes. Some of the more excited fans stole the crowd around the ring, but the police handled the situation very nicely and the fight continued. Hayes went after Kramer like an enraged tiger, and won the round by a good *margin* in spite of the fact that Kramer hit him low several times before the bell sounded. Kramer Down. Hayes, however, his terrified tone with round and Kramer went down twice. It looked as though Kramer was through, but he managed to weather the storm and the seventh. In the seventh, Hayes then won the eighth and the fight, which meant the last of mixed bouts in this city. Two Star Bouts Friday Night In Atlantic City Atlantic City, N.

Fight "Fixed" Hayes Bold Kramer Down FURANKS IN PHILLY Race Tennis Champions To Come From California --- My Message To Mem By Edgar G. Brown National Singles Tennis Champion, 1823 In 1923, on my initial visit to the Pacific coast, my features my first prophecy. Again in repeat—on the hard concrete course of California where one can play the year around, a native son of this earthly paradise will cover the west and sweep all before him with a winner initial visit to the Pacific coast. I ventured my first prophecy. Again a respect — hard concrete courts of California, where one can play the game, a native son of this earthly paradise will come out of the west and sweep all between him with a winner. Edgar Brown tennis racket to be ultimately crowned at Forrest Hills, New York, the world's slimest champion of the greatest international game. As dainty Miss Helen Wills came and conquered, so some day will Miss Juliet Harris, or still another charming high brown of Los Angeles knock at the door of the world championship entrance at the HarperCollins club unlike only unto the historical leap of the uncommable DeHart Hubbard. Agrees With Edgren I strongly acquiesce with Mr. Edgren, the New York sport authority, who has press, predicted that the Negro athlete must be accepted as a winner in other sports. Drew, Butler, Poliard, Dismond, Wills, and Hubbard have deponstrated superb athletic prowess in competition with the world's greatest athletes. At this moment it looks like Oakland is about to out-distance Los Angeles, once anyway. David F. Sands, Leonard Richardson, (Attorney), Tom Jackson, Johnny Henderson, George Franklin, and a host of youngsters in the Bay City, constitute a team of modern scientific drivers and cannon ball service adherents who once across the Rocky Mountains and the Allegheny hills would leave many casualties along the Delaware River near Bordentown, N. J., about August 23rd, the week of the National Tournament. Kemp, Garrett Reed, Forsythe, and Miss Harris, of Los Angeles, would prove equally formidable back east on good hard clay courts, and I dare say unbeatable if the east afforded concrete surfaces or even a few more good turf courts like the several being built at Elmira, the country estate of the Hon. John T. Gibson, L. D., the Philadelphia theatrical magnate. Chop Stroke Artists My advice to the adamant minded chop shop owner who have moved out of surface surfaces with those holes, soft spots, and scratches is to learn how to play, entertain, learn how to, play entertaining games.

Saturday, July 25 Champions To from California the end for their monkey business and social pomp is not yet fatten- able. A half dozen California tennis courts could beat our champion parks backhandled Chicago cracks and Washington net pushing, perennial tennisless honor man of the John Walker Tennis Club all day long. A crime to call some of our professors on the court at T. A. tournaments, a fair excuse of black initiative and intelligence. But we are cheerful and excused. We will be in lieu of Chicago, and the Island of New Jersey, Edward Simons, Dayton, Buddy Pierce of Indiana, Reginald Weir of New York, and the Island of California, will hurry the tinging of the sun on the old tennis fossils. They deserve all honor for runners and may the praise of Tennis Annis be as magnificent as my own person regards. West Is Classy The West from Seattle to San Diego, is in a class by itself too, what it comes to playing the host to, with fitting players. Their welcome is for confined to celebrities. Incidentally Dr. Diggs, a regular good fellow from Chilafo, but the "sortie" sort of push-ball rushtime, animal on a tennis court, has been accepted, wined, and dined as a royal tennis fan in Los Angeles. A special banquet, trips to the beaches, the mountains, Bill Wrigley's Catalonia, and an endless whirl at night, a ten-nis match with men in the morrow, and the ladies in the evening. Messrs. Watson, Dunn, Richard son, and eaterie of the most lovely ladies I have seen anywhere, really make the Western Tennis Federation on the Pacific Coast a haven of joy to the tennis enthusiasts. It is my ambition to see many of our eastern and middle western players poor; good, and indifferent officers of the A. T. A., as well visit the land of truly hospitable people and perpetual sunshine in their homes as well as around the tennis courts.

That my fees for services are reasonable and that every pick and alling person will receive the same thorough examination and service as though you paid my small fee in advance. There is no person too poor to receive my best advice free and if you are out of work and money do not let that keep you from calling as I will arrange my terms of payment in such a way that will enable the poorest person to receive treatment from me. NERVES AND BLOOD ARE LIFE The lack of nerve force is found in the neck, and it is true with men in walks of life, from the day blazer to the sternum. The sternum and energy are also sufferers—no man is exempt from sufferers, and nature's hardness if you have the result of overwork, distressing and your vital organs are distressed, remember, delay in seeing the right door makes more difficult to spread the sympathetic and you might reach an incurable con- dition and relief if you delay too long.

CONSUL Office Hours: 10 a.m. Mason Gets Three Homers In 1 Game Charlie Mason, the 200-pound outfielder of the Lincoln Giants, set a record that was hard to equate home runs in a game, making six scores. Mason was playing against the Measured Man eight innings. He made four hits. When he came up for the last bat, Pitcher Shortman was taken out because of willingness to pitch to the big fellow. Mason is going like a house fire when he hits home a month ago. In almost every game in which he plays, he gets a home run. SOX AND BACHARACHS TO TIE UP SUNDAY Both Teams Have Cream Of Disbanded Potomacs, Leonard And Hall Released WINNING STREAK HAS BLACK SOX ON EDGE Local Have Record Of Winning 12 Out Of Their Last 13 Starts In League Games The ability of the Black Sox to hold their place in the sun or lead in the Eastern League race precedes Sunday when they will mix with the Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City in a double header at Mamaroneck, where they will throw the Sox out of the coveted second position as they are tied with the Hurrisburg Giants for second honors. The Bacharach, led by John Henry Lloyd, and one of the agonies produced, have been materially strengthened by the acquisition of two star players from the Wiltshire Grey and Ellis "Country" Brown. Sunday Games Important The Seasiders will come prepared to dispute the position held by the locals and the Baltimore game will be decided by the board, including of the four leading teams. The Sox have won 12 out of their last 13 starts, and the Cincinnati Bears and Chambers are a southpaw pitcher, Beckwith has assembled a determined hunch of pitchers who have been satisfied only when the 1923 pennant is waving over Maryland park Dope Upset The Sox upset the dope last Sunday when they knocked the league-bound Harrisonburg team out of first place in the NL West. Hilldale club over the Cubans has put the Sox's most dangerous righthand. The local team in their new Pullman bus, left the city early Sunday morning for "warming up" ex-New Jersey. They have a game scheduled in Sparrow Point Saturday, and will reach Baltimore Saturday night for the battle of the Cubans. Kay Sees In a statement before leaving town, Pete Hill, business manager for the local team, said that every man on the team is working in perfect unison, and the recent success of each player in each player is renewed incentive to win. "The Sox are anxious to meet their old friends and teammates, the Kansas City Giants in a world where they've said," said the Sox business manager. House Cleaning Leonard and Blinney Hall have been released, and it is expected some more house cleaning will be done by Charlie Spedden at the end of the year, but who is shated to go was not made known by the Sex management.

McClure Has Won 7 Of Last Nine Starts McClure Has Won 7 Of Last Nine Starts The comeback of "Bob" McClure, Black Sox pitcher, in his last nine starts, is the main topic of conservation in baseball circles the past week.

In the game against the Mendowbrook team, Fial made several sensational catches in the field and knocked one of the longest home runs ever made at the Protective Oval. Fial is quitting professional baseball because of a work leg. Seven years later, he played with the Brooklyn Giants, he broke his leg and was compelled to be out of the game for a whole season.

I can readily recall several great, players who were in their prime about the time I broke into the game. I remember the evening after witnessing the Black Sox in action at Maryland park.

Hairstone has played ball in nearly every state in the country and has managed several teams that have travelled all over the Hite States. It is rumored he will be one of the "umps" in the Eastern league. This isn't the fight in the game anymore," continued the old timer.

MYSTERY SHROUDS BAY DROWNING PAPERS ON BODIES ONLY IDENTITY FOUND Investigations show Men were Members Of Crew Of British Steamer A mystery of the son, the solution of which may never be known, was brought to light when the bodies of two men were found floating in the harbor at Port Corning Saturday. The men, who are British subjects, were members of the crew of the British steamship Elliott. Their identity was learned from papers found in their pockets after they were removed to the morgue. Officials say they are Thomas Davis, 35 and M. Sampson, about 40 years of age, and are thought to be of West Indian descent. The Elliott cleared the spot here Friday night, enroute to Chile. The same boat was in a collision with a schooner belonging to a colored man by the name of Simon of Gloucester, Va. The mistaken occurred Friday night and Simon and his two sons were rescued after the boat was capsized. The coroner is investigating the death of the men.

Ingratitude Gratitude is a fruit of great cultivation. You do not find it among grass people." Dr. Johnson. As expected the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad has determined upon a more pitiless as the reward to one poor Easter Francis Hill who escaped a passenger train on the Ang�eo-Weverton branch two weeks ago. It took the company some ten days to investigate the case. According to the official report, the company found that the child did not endanger her life, and secondly that the engineer might have been able to stop the train anyway with his aid. Sterly after the accident, the man engineer told the press that the child was responsible for averting a wreck. The recent storm he declared had blown a tree across the tracks, and this obstruction was led by a curve in the tracks which would have prevented engineer action in time. The subsequent investigation by the police confirmed this. The railroad company reminds us of the wealthy woman who visits one of the remnants on her estate during the cold spell last winter and found his family freezing with sympathy on her return home she ordered the butter to forward the suffering family a bad wood. However, the absent mud batter returned several minutes later to his mistress, now thermo warm and comfortable, to ask which tenant she could have the wood, and received this reply "Never mind, it's warm now." The prevention of this accident gave good lives and a $1,500 to forty-five miles for the railroad, not to speak of thousands it would have to pay for injuries or killed in the service, a wealthy corporation values at $100. At ten times this amount, it would have been cheap. There is no crime in the catalogue as base in ingratitude. All the others are virtuous compared with it. Don't Be Fooled Figures made available in the current issue of the "Crisis" indicate that some 1200 members of the race graduated from colleges and universities of the country last year. Included in this number are some 160 college graduates and 400 graduate from schools of law, medicine, biology etc. U. S. Department of Education figures show 75,000 white graduates of American schools during the time period. Comparatively speaking, these figures state that the race is giving itself a college education selecting ten person out of every 10,000. The white race is selecting one out of every 1346 white persons for a college education—seven times as well as we do dollars. National educational institutions are consuming how fast race education is progressing. It is improving, but it is far from being normal yet. Nobody should be fooled by the talks we hear sometimes about there being too many higher schools and colleges. One school like Harvard or Columbia or Chicago turns out each year as many college graduates as all the colored colleges in the country. The National Anti-Slum League of Paris in its recent report states that overcrowding is rampant in trenad sections of that city and that it may be viewed as the cause of social disintegration and the most downfall of the family. "The danger of promiscuity, says the report, naturally occurs when parents and children sleep in the same room and elder and younger brothers—and very often brothers and sisters—sleep in the same bed." Actually there is no need to go abroad for examples of overcrowding. The high rents, and the northward migration have brought about a kind of overcrowding in cities not known before. where several families occupy one small house originally built to accommodate only six people it is necessary frequently for the whole family to sleep in one room. Where this happens, the federal health agencies are broadcasting a warning to separate brothers and sisters and not to put younger and older children in the same bed. Wherever there is overcrowding disease and poverty walk hand* in hand seeding the death rate above the normal. AMERICAN Welfare and the Square Deal Afro-American Building, 628 N.

The game was tense, the opponents were the white and colored prison teams. After a nine inning battle neither side had scored. During the tightest part of the struggle, Garvey, totally unmoved, was asking his nearest fellow prisoner, "What is a strike?" "What did he run for?" "Why doesn't he come home now." Here is the case undoubtedly of Mr. Garvey downfall. He takes himself too seriously. After ten years or more in this country he has not even mastered the national pastime—baseball. He hasn't taken time to play, being too busy trying to solve the American race problem and drive the foreigners out of Africa. Just imagine living in New York where Babe Ruth knocks a home run every day or so, where Dizzy Vance is punching out more, batsmen than old Rube Waddell ever did, and a world series is played every October and not to know an ampire from a caddy. No wonder the editor of the "Crisis" the federal judge, the district attorney and everybody conspired to send him to Atlanta and eventually back to Jamaica. Undoubtedly they said:--"This fellow is Garvey is dangerous. As an organizer he is a genius. He has W. J. Bryan beaten as an orator, but as an honest-to-goodness baseball fan, he is a dub. Away with him." Fake Degrees Where did the Reverend L. W. Williams, pastor of the Shiloh Baptist Church, Sumpter, S. C., get his degree of Ph. D.? Dr. W. E. B. DuBois asks this embarrassing question in the current issue of the Crisis. All of the race men who have earned their doctor's degrees can be counted on two hands, so that DuBois' question was bound to be embarrassing. Fortunately Rev. F. C. Williams of Buffalo, N. Y., came to the rescue and wrote that the degree had been conferred upon his friend by Princeton University, with highest honors in Moral Science. Princeton, University (N. J.) denied the allegation and the Rev. Mr. Williams came back to say he meant Princeton, Indiana. But Indiana's secretary of state and vice president are appointed institution as Princeton University in Indiana. So there you are. The traffic in fake degrees still goes on. Nevertheless it is as reprehensible for ministers, educators and professional men to accept these phony degrees and palm them off before the public as real as it is for a business man to water stock in a corporation. It is false pretence and sham that is going on at an amazing rate. A good many doctors of philosophy got their diploma from the university of hard knocks. Typhoid We have had a few cases of typhoid fever in town. There is a cause for it—drinking impure water. We know that the water in (your town) is pure. But the cases we now have can be traced to some wells. The persons having the fever, in travelling over the country, drink water from many wells, and thus contract the disease. When you leave town, be sure to take a jug or bottle of water with you, and don't drink out of every well you pass. Auto Driver No man intentionally aims to injure others with his automobile because in doing so his own life or property may be harmed. Auto accidents are largely a matter of carelessness and thoughtlessness and for the most part preventable. To evade and avoid accidents and disaster one has only to exercise precaution and safety first measures. Auto users need to bear in mind the rules of the road the traffic laws and traffic signals. Pedestrians should be given the right of way and should not run down children and the aged and all of them get panicky. Drive only when you have all of your faculties about you and at ready command.

We little seven year old Celestia Brown?

We saw that no JUST AND LOVING GOD COULD PLAN THE DEATH OF A HUMAN BEING TITTLE.

The Battle Against Cancer Gaining News dispatches of the woke herelike the hope that one of the most stubborn battles which a scientist won, the successful inoculation of human beings against cancer. Few people realize the extent to which the successful inoculation of this dreaded disease. It is one of the terrible ailments in which most of its victims suffer in silence. Because of its hopelessness, many patients with horrible mental agony. Dr. W. E. Pye, of the British Medical Research Council, has made mild cases and thus make immune the person into whom it is injected. Everybody now understands how that same kind of vaccine by the same kind of vaccination. For years scientists have sought to find some cure for this dreaded disease. If they have on the finger of the doctor, they could hardly than any discovery made during the last century. It was the last medical trench to be taken most of the other known diseases, having successfully treated. Thus in the onward sweep of science, we are driving the earth. Perhaps when this job is fully accomplished science will then turn its attention to some of the other human in which produce unhappiness. This is enough of this kind of work to do keep the row of scientists on the next top thousand years.

"It is better to belied about than to be a liar," said something reliable. PETER B. Brown, age seven, who died at her home in Buffalo Friday. White crepe hangs upon her door. To me who crepe always, then once that some one is dead who SHOULD BE ALIVE. For more than a year the writer has been accustomed to see a girl run up to him as he passed the corner each day. She always gave me a bubbling smile and now and then she knew I knew always cheer her; for in that childish smile and laughter I always received more happiness and soothing enjoyment than she ever got out of a ton of ice cream. But at the age of seven, she is dead. Down in Dayton, Tennessee, scalloped fundamentals instructors believe that God PLANNED THAT THAT LITTLE GIRL SHE WAS BACK. When they lay her to rest plush ministers will say, "the Lord giveth and the Lord taketh; blessed be the name of the Lord," some churches they call it predestination. By this they mean that in the beginning God created man and that since then he has been sealed by the Creator himself.

Business has science assuming to interfere with the PRTDESTINED WILL OF GOD, says the fundamentalist. Why create inventions to make travel safe; why try to conquer disease; why try to die; why must live or die always at some predestined time? When Men Learn What Sacrifice Means "You have written lots," writes a correspondent, "about the way in which women accertained themselves they love; you have painted most beautiful pictures of the wonderful ability they have to express their love; they were severe, but what about the men?" "We recall that some time ago the Mayor of the City did itself proud in commemorating the day set apart to honor motherhood. Some time ago it passed almost unnoticed. Even mothers themselves, writes, children and friends went about their accustomed routines in the fact that this day had been set aside for the sterner sex. Even men lack the tender appeal which the mother commands, but they too often have heart throbs; they suffer in silence; they toll and prey on others, who abide a word for them sometimes?" Perhaps it is because we have grown to take the stolism of men as a natural masculine manure in a natural manure up to the sentiment that makes us bow in reverence at the shrine of fatherhood. When a man works day and night for his family and wears his body in grinding to tell: when he keeps his eyes dry in sorrow when others suffer from wisteria when he keeps his head; when women lose theirs and drown their suffering with wisteria, we think nothing of it: it is the natural thing. We agree with the correspondent that we might now and then throw a flower in the direction of the male flower lessening the glory that is woman. He too is often driven to noble deeds to silent suffering, to unusual accomplishment by LOVE FOR HOME (HOME FOR HOME). P Credulous English "Fall For' Barbadoes Herb Doctor ROGERS CAN'T FIND THE COLOR LINE J. A. Rogers Meets West Indian Who Earns $25 A Day Selling Herbs To Cure British Ills AMOS HOKUM SAYS By J. A. Rogers Author of "From Superman to Man" London, England—To me, coming from the United States, the most noticeable thing so far is the abduction of Plymouth and after my bags had been gone through by the customers officer, my first necessity was to get a place for the night. Hearing that much valor prejudice had arisen in England who were under the embarrassment of being refused at a hotel, and checked my bags at the railroad station while I went on a journey to Plymouth. The town I saw many places, but hastiled to enter, nor did I see a single colored person, though I walked around for several hours. At last I saw the Y.M.C.A. building in the town. The lady in charge received me courteously, but said she hadn't a single vacancy and after trying to get me a room elsewhere, suggested that I try a certain hotel, which I had to be the one of the best in town. I finally decided to try it and was received with instant courtesy. I was handed the foreigner visitors' book, where I had to tell about myself, who my parents are, where I was born and my age, etc. This is one of the unrepeated war measures. Most of the other names on the page were Americans who had just arrived like myself. One of the first things the American visitors did was to flock to the saloons ordering liquor eagerly for the fun of the thing and enjoying themselves like children just out from under the disciplinary eye of the teacher. To make matters worse, the George Washington, like the otherships of the American line, is really bone dry. As for me, I had a glass of fine port just for luck. For the nights' accommodation and breakfast next morning, I paid three dollars. The accommodation was much inferior to what I would have received in the United States for a like sum. Housing is much inferior to the states. Early next morning I took the Great Western for Cornwall, where I had been a novel lover and novel are ind. After a pleasant ride through some of the loveliest country in the ever more arid arrived quintet and delightful town of Penance. At this time the English countrysides are a scene of remarkable beauty. The fields are the quietest and all kinds of wild flowers are blooming. I had always imagined the English travelling. Back of my mind was the story of an Englishman who is said to have hesitated to tell another story, because he had not been introduced to him. Quite the contrary I found my fellow-travellers in the same town to talk after I had opened conversation. When they learnt I was from America, they became even more interested. And I noted that when I met a man who said, "not you, you colored people." Here, one is thought of in terms of nationality, not of a race. It is not an Englishman at home interested in race. Here, at least, all the dark peoples from the other parts of the world are British. Not once so far in the many conversations I have had has race ever been referred with the idea of color to think that the simply isn't there to think that I go, in barbers shops, restaurants, hotels, theaters, I am treated as any other man. And because I have been to some of the cheaper accommodations, I have been forced to go to some of the best places. Whatever the color of the accommodation, and God knows that it had in most parts of Africa, a man, in the mother country, a man, regardless of color. He could account for that. The black man can be blind. The black man I met all the time, I was in the A Clerk to Bellboy: Where did you get the black eye? Bellboy to Clerk, and out: The door opened outward sir. Miss Pearl Fisher says that men spend one-fourth of their lives sucking something from their tattoos and unbuttoning and another fourth asleep. Jack Dempsey is going to Berlin, but as yet there has been no talk of matching him with Bendenburg. There is more patience in the world than a neighbor's children may be led to believe. We know a man so stingy that he talks through his nose to save wearing out his false teeth. The contents of a bald man's head heard a joke, though though a joke thereon. Probably nothing gets so complete a work-out in this life as a small school-girl's first fountain pen. "Henry," said friend wife, "I want you to go buy me some birdseed downtown today." "Ha, you can't fool me," replied Henry. Birds grow from eggs, not from seeds." The best way to locate fresh vegetables is to follow your chickens early in the morning.

It is a safe bet that barbers won't advocate a law prohibiting bobbed hair this year. south of England, said when I remarked to him on the absence of prior to that of England. It is where you Americans come. You ought to go to the north of England, where I have lived for more than twenty years. When I asked him to recommend me to a place in London, he gave me this notably reply: "Go, where your pocket will take you," and he were a white man in American." This Negro is from Barbados, and is a medicine doctor, selling roots and herbs to the poor, although times are hard, and there is unprecedented unemployment that he makes an average of $20 a week, hours talk, Negroes, I notice, are not the only ones who fall for fake medicine. This part of England is one of the prosperous beings known as the Cornish Riviera. The weather is delightful in summer, and although it is about as far north in the country as Canada, snow in winter is a rarity. While in Penzance, I visited Land's End. The most southerly trip of England. Here, immense boulders, nature, forming a most astonishing sea wall. It appears as if some giant hand had taken up these huge boulders, some more boulders, forming a curiously plumed up hundreds of feet high. Some of these great rocks look as if an infant could disturb the balance and send them all hurting down. New discoveries in same delicate position for thousands and thousands of years. With its tremendous waves dashing against these granite cliffs, with great variations in the actions, and the marvelous coloring of the rocks and the waters, Land's End is a place that one does not forget very easily. The only other is the Grand Canyon. Cornwall is also noted for its tinn mines. Students of history will recall that the Phoenician merchants used to carry long boulders in order to get the product. One of these mines I saw known as the Ding-Dong, has been worked before the time of Christ, these mines extend under the sea. The Cornish people are very polite. Seeing few colored faces, one would think they would gaze at someone, but he was as a perfectly normal human being. I went for long walks in the delightful narrow green lanes meet him as a perfectly normal human in the fields. There is apparently not the elightest reserve about meeting me and if just as a test, I ask him to tell me about his normal and normal as ever. More than ever after this I do feel positive that color prejudice has to be taught and that there is a lot of activity of one human species for another. For if it were surely those people who saw Negroes least ought to show them the side of a human species for another. Here, however, are these people, who, as I said, rarely if ever, see a colored face acting just as if on the other side of a tremendous color problem. Nearly all of the land around Penzance belongs to Lord St. Leven, who on one occasion, known as St. Michael's Mount, has a magnificent castle like one reads about in fairy tales. A few days later I left beautifully the third class, for London. The English coaches are quite unlike the American, being much smaller, but more artistic in appearance. First class, the coach is so high that it is only for the rich. After a seven hours' ride through country fully as beautiful as that on a train, I rived at London, whose outskirts looked just the same as that of any American city. In my article I will tell of my experiences in London and of some of the places I have visited. "Stranger things have happened," muses Ms. Florence Brown. "One of the most delightful ways you can come the popular thing for lawns." It is amusing, maps Richard Moore. "People there are who simply want to get in the way." "So sorry I couldn't make your day." It takes nine men to win a ball game, but any one of them can lose it. "The world's meanest salesman—that guy in the window and an extra pair of pants when she bought a suit to bury her husband in. "The present excitement over sex might lead a stranger from another planet to suppose that sex had only recently been discovered. "Where is the electrical department?" the flapper asked. "Just walk this way, miss" said the hardware clerk, who was bowled over. "You fresh young thing," said the girl "I'd die first." "More power to you," said the ex-engineer, as he threw in the grenade. No Palm Beach suits are as cool as the advertisement states. "Are you sure," asked the old woman, "that this century plant will bloom in a hundred years?" "Positive, ma'am" answered the florist. "If it doesn't bring it right back." Distressed Spouse—It's the way you've changed. Animals were kind to dumb animals and all that, and yet when it comes to . . . Bill—Well, try 'bein' dumb and see how yer get on! "We feel sorry for the women who have had such a hard time to play bridge well." declares Mrs. Minnie Lewis.

There are societies confronting each other in something like competing numbers. These races belong for the most part to the tongues of the human family, although African puts in her claim through a minimum representation. The total population according to the census of 1920 contains 25,822 Hawaiians, 24,732 Hawaiians, 11,072 Hawaiians-Hawaiians, 6,955. Asiatic-Hawaiians, 27,022 Portuguese, 5,692. Portorican, 23,507 Japanese, 199,274 Japanese, 4,950 Koreans, 348 Negroes, and 310 other undefined. Mercernary Follows Missionary Spirit The Sandwich Islands illustrate quite forcefully how the missionary active is followed by the mercenary. In political domination and control. In the early years this was the great field for missionary endeavor. The Christian zeal of America was aroused to send them and to guide their steps by the light from on high. No mere sincere or genuine Christian purpose has ever actuated the religious mind. These missions were numerous and all that there was in them for the salvation of the natives who were perishing for want of the truth of the Gospel. There can be no reflection upon their motive for missionary endeavor. Samuel C. Armstrong, the father of Hampton Institute, came out of Hawaii as an off-shoot of the missionary movement, planted on the island of James, the missionary which he had gathered from his father, a Hawaiian missionary. I remember as a boy, how I was fed on the wonderful crumple of the gospel in the Hawaiian Islands. I was trained from the north had trained as a missionary with intention of going to the Pacific field. Trade Finally Obscures the Cross These islands are rich in resources. Trade followed the Cross, and very soon obscured it altogether. The islands were converted by the wholesale. The ears of Christianity were made to ring with the triumph of the gospel in this foreign field. The islands were used as the wheat. The trader introduced the vices of civilization which overcame the good works of the missionary. The scourge did not harm the islands. The native population was all but wiped away. The native Hawaiian constituted a n dying race. I have heard a good story of a man who was sent to the missionary movement, the fact that it had paved the way to a blessful heretofore to the thousands of Hawaiians who were teaching civilization had destroyed. Yankee Has Eyes On The Money The Yankee, in every and any mood, always has his eyes to the money side. The rich man's possessions were too enticing to escape their notice and attention. They tell us that today European missionaries, rather than apt to conduct business and commercial transactions on the side, the lands and rich possessions all lie large part, are the descendants of the old missionary families. After the Americans, missionaries, and others, the resources of the islands, political control became the next logical step. Under readers will remember how Grover Cleveland refused to rape the sovereignty of Hawaii under the guise of benevolent similarism, and the stubbornness of this great American president, the stars and stripes float over the gem of theaters as the experiment is made. The order of procedure is always the same—the Cross, the trader, Since the political absorption of Hawaii we have heard nothing about the triumph of the gospel or the spiritual salvation of the people in an article in the New York Times, which furnished the pretext for this release, not a single word is vouchered about the single word and importance of religion as a factor in the situation. The whole discussion hinges on economics and The numerous race varieties in the Sandwich Islands are brought together on terms of political and social equality, with barriers and civil restrictions to keep races apart, such as we find in parts of the continental United States. Intermarriage is common, and race inter-mixture is constant. It is an easy prophecy to predict that the authorities in an ethnic solidarity through transfusions of blood. The Caucasian, though in the hopeless minority, maintains his superior position by virtue of his superior power, and that he controls practically all of the worthwhile lands, and has in his hands the manipulation of the economic and political machinery. Easy to Dominate The Lesser Breeds It always has been easy for a handful of people from a superior country to bring in those of the lesser breeds. A few thousand Japanese dominate Korea as effectively as the Englishman in the United States.

They are the only voice that this nation will hear and heed concerns of the island. Island Just a Territory Now The whites are now much concerned over the political destiny of the island 'under the democratic principle of universal suffrage. In the past, the nationalisation element will have been replaced by native born, Hawaiians, white and yellow, who will then control the political fortune of the state. Hawaii is at present a territory. Stathode is not at present thought practicable. The racial complication is too complex for the American people, the hands of such an irrelated congregation. As long as the chief control is vested in the Congress of the United States, the whites however few in number, will be given full weight of political authority. Japanese Cause U. S. Concern The one element that is now giving the greatest concern is the Japanese. They constitute the largest racial element on the island. But this is not the chief cause of concern. The Japanese have back of them a great home government which will insist upon racial equality of its nationals. The Chinese and the native Hawaiians, however numerous, could be handled with as much discrimination as the Negro in Mississippi, and there would be no arm to save, them outside of their own inherent strength or weakness. But the great empire of Japan has its eye upon every son of the race wherever he may be found on the face of the earth. The races in Hawaii get along among themselves with comparatively little trouble or friction. Governor Hafrington tells us: "there is less race prejudice in Hawaii than elsewhere. We live amicably and recognize that our problems are common problems rather than that they belong to any single race." "The Asiatics on the island are for the most part laborers. They came in answer to the industrial demand. The whites command all of the strategic and controlling positions. And yet there is little or no race friction." Slavery Never Existed On the Islands This, in my judgment, is due in large part to the fact that the colored element of the natives Hawaiian culture has the original object of religious concern. The institution of slavery never existed on the island. The servile caste spirit has not been formed, and the native people under a double disadvantage: He hears the inherited attitude of the master towards the slave added to the proneness of the white race to it over the darker breeds of men. As we recode from the memories of American slavery, the relation between black men must needs be understood, which a servile status assigns him. The Negro element in the island is comparatively small and does not constitute a significant position which it connotes in America. The American whites however, are more significant in color and the Negro himself, wherever he goes, finds it hard to forget that he is being dispossessed of his ancestors were slaves. Hawaii today constitutes the best laboratory for the observation and study of the complicated issues in the management of the various races and subraces of mankind. The conditions are favorable for the normal relations of these different races to be maintained without compulsion or restraint. In the United States, especially in the south, these relations are artificial, under restraint of law and civil enactments. In other places, each other naturally, nor normally. The element of genuineness and sincerity is wanting. The Negro in the south, and to a lesser extent in the west, not according to his own spontaneous prompting, but according to how he is supposed or required to act by regulation or public opinion. The elements of human relations will keep his eye on Hawaii as perhaps on no other spot on the planet. Weekly Lessons In English By W. L. Gordon WORDS OFTEN MISUSED: Don't say "try and come."

Stewart Ebb, 345 Robert Street, is a variable treasure trove of art, mostly the work of his own gilted fingers. All pictures on the walls of his home, with but one or two exceptions, are in the same room. The porter are two panel pictures of Venetian scenes, the water and shadows done with delicacy of shading. One picture of sheep browsing in a grove of silver birch, done in silk and gold, is a mirror from a postcard given him by a friend. It is remarkably realistic and shows devotion to detail. A ship passing between rocky ledges mirrored against the moon cascades, deep shadow on the tranquil area. The over mantle is a large picture of woodland scenes, with waterfall and deer. In the foreground, a large mirror reflects old picture days as a picture of a masted ship skimming full sail over water, sparkling in the sunshine. In the library is a photo of Mrs. Ebb, painted in one evening. In the parlor is a photo of the Madonna in spelae cravats. Like the hero in a Gone Starron Porter novel, W. Stewart Ebb has furnished his home with articles made by the buffet, which remained 9 months at the Jamestown Exposition, winning the silver medal, is of quartered oak, with immense dragons at its base. The buffet are locked by the turn of a single key. The two bottom sections of the buffet have painted inside ships artistically carved.

THE FORUM BRYAN AND KU KLUX SLANDER Monkeys Says Pickens We agree with the French view expressed in the Paris Soir", that if Scopes is to be prosecuted at all for saying that monkeys are related to Bryan and the Ku Klux, the prosecution ought to be conducted by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. For manifestly when you accuse monkeys of being related to ordinary politicians and lynchers, the slander is against the monkey, and the animal is the one who ought to be defended. But when Bryan attempts to prosecute somebody for claiming that he and the Ku Klux are related to monkeys and conducts his prosecution on the theory that he and the Ku Klux are the injured parties, the thing becomes a side-splitting joke. Whoever heard of a monkey that would side up with race prejudice in Florida? Whoever heard of a monkey that would burn another monkey alive? Whoever heard of any monkey business like that going on in Tennessee now? A great fact of science cannot be established or overthrown in a court. A scientific theory or proposition must be tried in labor. In labor, the science involved. In other words, it must be dealt with in the schools and by scholars.—the very place from which Bryan and his particular human tribe are now trying to exclude it. What on earth can be done to exclude it, the opinion of 12 Tennessee mountain whites have to do with the sciences of biology and evolution? For all time to come the picture of Bryan in this court will be one of the greatest civilization. We are all unacclimated people.

He knew then that spirit has no color, that love is neither black nor white, that in the Master's deep waters that run silently below the mean trivialities of the world, good is good and worth is worth. Rod strapped on the invisible armor of beauty against which the spears and javelins of a coarse world fall blunted and futile. The delicate and subtle appreciation of natural glories that lay in his soul would carry him safe and sound through whatever came. The temptations of greed, passion and hatred, could not now overcome the automatic adjustment of his spirit—he was in tune with infinite things and on the wings of the eternal song of freedom CHAPTER IV Here Rod learned that there is a deep-rooted conviction held by millions of white Americans that the Negro is incapable of winning. He learned that the coloured colored man, however, revealed the fact that in many general instances his processes of thought parallel the white man's, while in many special cases he processes of thought separate places at the head of his classes, carrying off prizes and winning honors. Notices of these advances on the black man's part. Hol discovers an hour's worth of portraits are herole in the extreme, his gains are attended by silence and despair. Unified by past generations of white people, knowledge, only to find a more terrifying barrier in a prejudice that demands of him superhuman standards of living that he may prove himself to be. When once nobody notices. The Negro in this country, Rod realized, has been so scorned and hated that in order to preserve his own soul he has been so scorned and hated personality. The northern Negro maintains a courteous, almost shallow front toward the white man, but unable thinking; with striving muscles and sweating brain he is fighting for betterment and prosperity and gaining for. Rod understood, too, how the white press has almost succeeded in making the word Negro anthema. The colored man is blazoned forth as a murderer, and the white man's crimes are more refined and more subtle, they are not less, shocking, nor less dangerous to the white man. The colored man, capable and worthy the shock cause of his color, to be unfit for human, he is automatically supposed, be human companionship. He bridges the white man and the colored ancestors, only to find the deeper pit dug by the white man who calls himself a Christian and reviles and persecutes his own country. At this time there lived in Chicago the most progressive portion of this most American city, whose most of the people had sheared Among them Rod found ability, intelligence, culture, and genius. There were shrewd and successful business and artists, and many clans, composers, painters, actors, and writers of worth. The purse of the modern Negro's culture was the Cicilian. He loved his country and her institutions, though he was excluded from many of the privileges of both; here in the north he had found oppor-tunity to work in his native state, Mississippi. He was pursuit of happiness denied him in then in Illinois, which boasts of the most liberal cities in Chicago, the most liberal city in pilgrims as to a modern Mecca rich the country, to which had flocked black in jobs, politics, homes, and hope. He lived in his own people, bound to them by color, when the brilliance of his mind, the magnitude of his art should have opened earth's doors to His days were spent in a mercantile office in the Loop where, because of his training and eye gracious bearing, his intelligence several languages, he was supposed by his fellow workers to be a Spantand and he was registered on the company payroll. He supplained and the foreign flavor of an assumed name were responsible for his having secured a position among the staff in aubatto and decome dislolled. He was favourable and romantic light on Spantand, but who would have recoupled from him in horror and disgust if his identity in aubatto had decome dislolled. He would not have outweighed one glossy wave of hair if that hair had been attributed to Negro rather than to white. He had an equally adjusted sensibilities and an great integrity. McClellan was forced for economic reasons, by his own countrymen, into double living, and in this condition he was only one of two million of the dark kind, rise skin and general aspect have made it expedient for them to sever connection with the suffering of the other side, where among white people they are at least eligible, through careful deception, to the prosecution of the flag under which they were born.

Her slang, roarous conversation was a trial to Glen, who, however, maintained an attitude of patient politeness toward her. "Oh. I just love foreigners! You are all so polite and romantic and everything, aren't you, Spanny?" "American boys are so what you might call all-over-the-place. They drag a girl around by the arm and speed her up something awful over the bed. You hadn't room between quitting time and morning to take a long breath and really enjoy life."

I bet you'd see the moon, too, and a lot of things other men don't notice—foreigners certainly are interesting: "I prefer Americans." "I suppose you'll take out your papers and quit dreaming about your castes in Spain and go to chasing coin like the rest. Do you want to be an American and want to be a McClellan laughed. "I want to be able to take my place, rightfully, upon juries that pass upon my fellowmen, as they pass upon me, and I want, rightfully, to enjoy the life of the community and other community services. I want to walk unhyphphaned, an American. I want to hold my head high in the most glorious country on earth, and I want to build the honesty, good purpose and strength there is in me." Won't you guess the country won't turn you down. You talk like you had doubt about it. You all got to do is apply to the government. I got a what you go do first." "Thank you," returned McClellan. "you are very kind. I am sure, but that won't be necessary. I have look ad into the matter quite thoroughly." At night McClellan disappeared on a south-bound car to spend busy evenings in his studio where he made little clay figures, exquisite conception, that were later bought by a large company which made reproductions of the mto distribute broadcasts throughout the country. Many white families rejoined in a slim, dreaming Pierrot or a skipping nych, blacking or a red-cheeked man's soul on their drawing-room tables in state when they would have turned the man himself from their doors. Rod found his way to McClellan's studio often at night. After his first week in Amber Blares home, life assumed many pleasing aspects. McClellan had found some painting for him to do not on canvas, but on a dilapidated building. How are you getting on. Rod?" Improved McClellan's evening. "Pretty well, but I shouldn't want to stop paint on walls all my days—it's almost as dull as the hardware business!" "What would you like to do—of course, you know I want you to use my studio whenever you care to—if you want to keep on with others," he said. I enjoyed gifts in that direction. I'm in the shack at Waterport, but it isn't the thing I want to do. "What do you want to do, Rod?" "Maybe, if I worked hard and had a chance—well, you see. there's nothing to be a dance." But the man to be a dance." McCellan was the first to shine Rod's new dream. McCellans opinion would be Rod's decision. It was a momentous time for Rod. McCellan looked puzzled. "Do you want to be most rudely, Rod?" "I, want to dance." "In chaplets, with the girls? Is that what you mean?" "No, I want to dance on the stage. I want to dance as flowers dance in the clouds. I want to dance across the heavens. I want to dance more than I ever wanted to do anything before." "Well—" said McClellan in astonishment, "well—" "I suppose it is an odd idea for me to have." "A little novel, rather. Nothing that one yearns to do is odd; it is more to be night. I have a notion that whoever is right at the atom on the great balance wheel; he is summed up and evened up despite his own feeble efforts." The day "Rod continued hopefully, 'and study at night.

It must be hard, but you must make your efforts count, a chance I shall never have. There is a scientist at the University of Art, I can go to see him tomorrow." "Yes, yes, yes." "Why, yes, I guess so. Do you want to go tonight?" "if you aren't too tired." "It's not far." When the two friends reached the university, they were sitting as enthusiastically about the dance. The faculty of the University had just adjourned a meeting in the wide parlor, and on McCullan's trance with Rod they were chatting with the ballerina in the spacious ball and the brass in the room. An alert, happy-faced Xenophon forty, suddenly appeared on the way and ran lightly down to join the others. "Oh," called McCullan, signifying over the intervening heads—now a Rod. "Here's our man now. Glad we caught him in." "What's his name?" "Ramon—Lawrence Ramon—was the one of the most noted masters in the country if he were white. Are we with soul—soul to send him shyred and plenty of common sense to such him on his night." Obeying Melitzani's signal, Ramon crossed the brilliantly lighted hall. "Glad to see you, can we need us it's like you?" He shook Melitzani's hand warmly, then his gaze turned to Rod. He looked at him with interest. "Allow me to present my very good friend, Roscoe, -- Rod Roscoe." "Are you a musician?" "No." "An artist, perhaps." "I want to be a discover." "Ah, then you and I have an interesting conversation before us—you will want to know some of my experiences—I shall want to know some of your aspirations and hopes." "Have you time?" "I'll take it. Let's go into a quiet corner," Ramon led the way into a studio opening from one of the pop-tion rooms. It was slim, and pleasantly cool. Ramon caught the heavy orange cord, exuding under a pinnacle of its floor lamp and a ruddly food of good painting, a high mural intertwined in the�ingly filled with pictures of colored artists and musicians. Mcclellan had no companions then to the door. He looked in. Saw one of the directors in the crowd. I want to talk to him about a team my studio some Sunday soon—him to lend me a harp and a singer.

Don't know how those's a crazy笼 at the outset." "Crazy?" "I mean my feet are so far unquinted with my midfoot. Don't beginnings in the heart. That is why no people are great and some are not. Some have great hearts—they give—always give, for the love of them people who watch. Art does not begin in the feet!" Bath laughed. "So now that we have seated them let us go on.

Colonel Midnight served as general news correspondent for a newspaper since 1887. In 1890 he became correspondent for the Afro-American, and for the next ten years his articles appeared exclusively on the front page of this newspaper. He rately missed an interview.

He is black, like me, and he is so stained with the race like that it is impossible for him to get away. He is the man that can write poetry, have never tried to write himself, but I am sure to say that we have a man who is recognized all over the country as a good poetry writer. My secretary tells me that he can be a writer, and I will not ask me who this Rudyard Kipling is, for I would guess from new until this other big foot of mine is in the grave and I will never be able to tell you. He is some man who was born in war times, I think. Lily Black Hand In nearly every letter he spoke of "taking his pen in hand," he referred to his hand as "tily black." He also waged "wagon." A Paulman was a "bed cat." He always spoke of his wife as his private secretary, and when folks enjoyed themselves, he spoke of them as having an "old Aunt bally time." Jeculfer Incident Col.

B. P. O. E. of W. and Grent Southern Temple Number 30, appropriately capped the celebration of the 25th anniversary of the order by the most spectacular street parade on Monday that has been held in Baltimore Town this summer. Headed by the Commonwealth Band, the marchers tastefully attired in black trousers and shoes, white shirts, surmounted by purple shoes for the male members, white costumes for the female, nose and ears for the ladies presented a picture that extracted enthusiastic comment all along the line of march. The Southern Temple was preceded by the Oriental Band. Sam Taylor, the narrator, was marshaled by Herd, and conducted his forces with the assistance of his allies, Murdoch Dennis, Thomas Reid, and others, like a veteran. Both the male and female contingent marched with a crest that would have warmed the crowd in a German drill sergeant. The members left the Elk Horns on street at 4 p. m., and paraded through the heart of sweet Baltimore. Returning the marchers disbanded at the starting point and went to Greenwood Electric park, Cottonville, where a dam was built and a showground showing made by the members, it has been predicted that the marching club will be a strong contender for honors at the 28th annual Cottonville order in Richmond next month.

Page Fourteen SUCCESFUL PASTOR MUST ATTRACT YOUTH His Attitude Towards Young A Deciding Factor In Church Growth MUST UNDERSTAND SPIRIT OF YOUTH ter Is Doomed By Eva A. Jessy There are several important questions a church always asks concerning a prospective pastor: How old is he? How does he look? Is he married? How do the young people like him? The last query is the one I wish to discuss as it is of utmost importance to a minister that he contrive to make the young people "like him." In asking this question, the old people are voicing a hope that the pastor will succeed in the and grooming young generation. In the most difficult task confronting a minister. Part of the trouble lies in the minister's attitude toward youth, and part in the attitude of the young folks toward teacher. Suspect Each Other To most young people the minister is classed as a long-faced, gravely-talking, holler-thun-thun, joy-killer. Only by perfectly mingling with young people, being part in their harmless recreations, can the preacher pull himself out of that classification. As strange as it may seem, many ministers are also wary young people. We do not understand them. He approaches them as a matter of duty, and with fear and trembling. There are several reasons for this fear. Most ministers have been raised in their life by straight, religious discipline; not permitted to mingle freely with other boys and girls of the neighborhood, and consequently grew up shy, and afraid, heartahead to the young people, but they do not know how to win it. What Not To Do Age judges young people by the externals of their behavior, rather than by their motives. The minister who gets the most frequently shocked. When a minister allows the irresponsible youngsters of his flock cushy to ruffle his "suitably dressed" girl and girls is scant. In approaching young people do not patronize them; do not bait them. Even a baby represents being deceased. They have doubtless witnessed its objection to an unwelcome care. "Do not place them under obligation—such as staging an apparent attack on a church meeting. Do not bait children with recreation. They like such things, but their effectiveness is at odds with their mentor's great task is the teaching of new games, but to interpret to them their own lives, and when various methods are utilized they should be only as useful as they are. And another big point is, TAKE THEM SERIOUSLY. Don't think all they want to hear is foolishness. They are wiser than you think; and they realize that foolishness led to them being complimentary to young men and women take secrets to the minister, to them it may be a tragedy—and the minister, unwisely, makes light of it. It should be as serious it is. It should be individual directly concealed BE SYMPATHETIC, BE REACHABLE. What To Do When you speak to the young people, have something to say, and SAY IT ALL. Don’t tell them to keep yourself in the background and do not take up all the time in the young folks meetings. Show them you can do so. The minister who wants the confidence of his young people must be willing to squander a lot of time for themselves, and their hearts opening to him. They will give themselves to him as he reciprocates with them. Sometimes years of time are spent with them, and money must be spent. But out of it will come a great joy. Knotty Difficulties Happy is the minister in whom the young people conde. They will come to him with their footwork and them the problems of school and of work. Much will he know about the ways of cupid. Many will discuss knotty personal difficulties, and not a few informal seminars will he deliver. Youth is a time of crisis, and a certain intimacy of making a deciding word. He who enters into the life of young people has discovered the springs of life that they have missed much in their own youth have made up for it twice over by living with and for their children. They have unnished in the presence of youth. They are the finest antidote for the blues. In no way can the minister multiply life more effectively in living with and for his young people. The Friend Of A. Boy e "The team in which a pastor is held, is indicated not so much in formal deference, Christmas 'presents, substantial purses and anniversary receptions, but in a demonstration, such as the long gown, the old and bent, stopped by an open lot watching a neighborhood game of ball. At the end of the game the pitcher for the victorious team, throw his glove to the onlooker, and thankless to the onlooker. "See, Reverend, he shouted, I fanned 'em all out, an 'n' I fanned 'em out fair and square, now that's what I call a game, don't you. Reverend." Such encouragement marks the beloved minister.

PRESIDENT END 10 DAY FETE AT BISHOP'S ELECTION BISHOP JOHN'S CELIBRANT AT HIGH MASS AND GROUND NOVENA *New York—The Ten-Day celebration that has attended the election of a colored Bishop here, the Father T. O. John, to the Bishophood f the Utopia Holy Temple, 206 close Sunday evening with the reelection of Solemn High Mass and a Grand Novena. He have been attended by the energy and members of nearly every other denomination in the city, both white and colored, many of whom are members of the Bishop, who has just been consecrated to the Bishophood, is well known in Baltimore, where he has done much good work. He is fearless and In his sermon at the close of the Nevena Sunday night before a great censure of hearers, the Father "Many people, in all ages, failed to cultivate their keen sense—perception of their higher and better nature, of their higher and better intellect, having a difficult time in believing the right, and often desiring the wrong. They so often abuse their own consciousness and also their own intellect, to force them for the pure and best—hence the dissipation and crime of which the skirts of the church today are not even free. Imagine even a church with a home where the pastor, if he is not in it, has to turn his head during the song services. "When we get so that a thing we love has been practiced so much by us that it no more disturbs us to do it, we in a dangerous conspiracy have been practiced that we have so assured that it has become paranoid. "For a man to be the leader of the colored people he must be an unusual man. "It must get to be a different man out of the ordinary." "He must be able to understand the many characteristics that dominate the Negro. "He must be able to understand the German, the Jew, the French, Chinese, Italian, African, Japanese and all other things in him, where you can successfully handle birds."

I am sending to the minister an explanation to be published. I am writing to thank the sultan of the Afro-American. A. L. Gaines Chicago, Ill. Rev Alfonso Dumar, B. D., president of a newspaper article which appeared in the Daily Gleaner of June 19, 1925. This article was at my Chicago address. My attention was first called to the art of AMRICAN“ of Baltimore, Md., by the Rev. T. A. Thomas. I immediately largely misquoted in the “ARO-MRICAN“. I am taking this method to make a conviction in the Gleaner. In my address before the A. M. E. stated that Jamaica is a country of great natural wealth and that many of people were industrious and generous. From a most relatable source, I am informed that the imports of the Japanese goods, 8,655,525 pounds sterling in 1812 to 36,312,250 pounds sterling in 1821 to 36,312,250 pounds sterling in 1821 to 7,146,010 pounds sterling in 1821, made the same statement as the other accounts that the citizens of Jamaica worked under the "indenture Plan." Neither did I make the same statement in hovels with doors of cow manure. All that I said with reference to the maps of living referred to the East Indians. This reference to the East Indians was made in Jamaica in 1821. I did not mention conditions in South America, and not as to the East Indians living in Jamaica. I did not mention quarers in Jamaica. I did visit the East Indian quarters in South America, with reference to Jamaica, that there had not as yet been established sufficient industries for adequate employment of the managers of the estates waged claimed, thereby resulting in much begging on the part of the I also stucced in my address that American Negroes still belonged to the same racial group and that race consciousness is absolutely necessary in order to better way of inspiring this race consciousness than by a thorough understanding the American Negroes and the Negroes of the American Negroes and the Negroes of the West Indies, the A.M.

As intimated in a former chapter it is of a dual character, the first being the sermon after his speeches fashion, of the text, "The Lord God is a man of war; the Lord is His name. Much that he said in that part of his sermon, which was being retained as indicates his view of the rotation of the sun. It was really when he came into this part of his sermon, that much more advantage, even though so manifestly in error as to the position which he tried so manfully to antagonize. It was of that comedy which he always put him before the people at his best. I never heard this sermon but once, but I have never heard it again.

Colossians 2: 8-10, in WEEKLY SERMON The sermon this week was submitted by the Rev. J. A. Bullon, pastor of John W. McMahon M. E. Church. Next week's sermon will be given by Dr. W. H. Dean, Pastor of Sharp St. M. E. Church.

Great imported two thousand families them in Lycia and Phrygia in the maintain them in the city. This was at Hierapolis and the fannahal worshippers. The rituals tious and excitable sort and the pau cruel, excitable and impure. Came because that the pastor, (Paphras) knew the Apostle Paul and lay the whole. This resulted in the writing of the exhortation here chosen as an. 1. He opposes a censure rite. 2. Against infiltrating speculations. 3. Hampering Ordinances, a man. 4. To Theological cliques, an ea. 5. To barren systems, a new heart. 6. The Christian goal should, then, Christ. The situation of Colossus in the second century and its consequent environment and wayward tendencies, by the Apostle Paul. The population was seething with revolution, and Antiochus, the Great Cretian, summoned militiamen and seized them in Lybia and Phrygia in the hope that they would maintain an element of subliability. The principal seat of the worries this sect was at Hierapolis and the whole district was filled with these seers. The Cretians were most indifferent and most superstitious and excitable sort and the paganism of this region was notorious, cruel, excitable and impure. The Colossian Church became so polluted with this fool admiring that the Apostle Paul had to describe to his admonition and lay the whole matter before him and to his advice. This resulted in the writing of the epistle which includes the very polite exhortation here chosen as a text. 1. Against infanting speculations he places a sublime reality. 2. Hamming Ordinances, a mainly self-discipline. 3. To Theological cliques, an equal brotherhood. 4. Burden systems, a new life, a new impulse, a religion of the heart. The Christian goal should, therefore be the fulness of the nature of Christ.

MOSES TELLS OF EVOLUTION TRIA Dayton, Tom—Dr. W. H. Moss, campaign director of the National Baptist Convention, is here with a group of co-workers to the civilization trial. To the AFRO-MERCAN, he said: "Well, I was somewhat surprised at the down and the line spiral of the simple life of this section. The average white person meets seems 16 to be unaltered, his kind and well meaning, when the there seems to be an absence of the spirit of a cremation crowism. There was no secrecy in the court house as is the case in most sections of the south. This is East Tennessee, which never been in politics and Negroes take place." There are a few distressed and evolutionists with pamphils and monkey pictures who seem to have been born in the past and the human race from them. They seem exceedingly anxious to collist colored Christmas for cannage purposes throughout the year. They seem to have the doctrine of evolution. The press paper men of the country seem to be in favor of the evolution; the monkey men of the country are anxious to know the results of the controversy on our group. We expressed the opinion that it would be helpful on the yonge generation. The colored group of ministers, as a whole, during its past generation have not had to opportunity for broad culture which would enroll them to harmonize the ecological doom of what is called the Church fathers of them has dred years ago, with the largest learning which has resulted modern thinking, and for that reason they have been proerthally hostile to science. The college Ngo on that account has been provided against Negro preachers and the religion of their fathers to a very harmful degree. The tendency has been to ignore religion altogether because they thought or think religion is hostile to science and not defend upon obituary authorities and play upon ignorance to against itself. This trial which is attracting world-wide attention, will evidently demonstrate that Christianity is strengthened by science rather than weakened. The surprising thing to me is he learned in Law and in History, can become bigots like Mr. Ilyas- son, and can be the parson known as Ezekiel Tennessee, John A. Breedis and other able school proxies and educators, who believed in an fought for human slavery, in for the Baptists, Methodists, and other of the slavery question.

The Country Is Modern Hotelry Baltimore Needs Plant --- Call VErnon 6016 MORE AUTO CROOKS (Continued from Page 1) in the state answered their purpose—and swear to ownership of the cars. They would pay the license fee and receive sworn statements of ownership, license plates and owners cards. Returning to this state they would go to Harrisburg, where they would represent themselves as representatives of the Dyson-Shorter Motor Corporation. Upon paying the fees they would receive titles, license plates and owner's cards for the cars they appeared to own. Thus they would acquire title, license plates and owner's cards without possessing a car. On occasions they would secure as many as 12 titles and plates to cars. Getaway Is Described The rest was easy. The pair would select a new car, steal it and one of them drive it into the country. In a secluded spot the manufacturers and motor numbers would be changed with steel stencils, the license plates made to conform with one of the titles placed on the car, and off in case the police questioned him he was able to show the proper credentials and full ownership of the car. One thief remained behind while the plates and numbers of the stolen car were changed. On the arrival of the police information that he had seen a thief drive away with the car and agree to aid in capturing him. The owner was invariably "steered" in a different direction from that taken by the thief. Later the two crooks would meet and within a short time dispose of their half of the car's market value. The detectives say that Dyson and Shorter admit stealing eight auto-mobiles in one week from Uniontown. The cars were brought to this city and sold to dealers. They found a ready market, as the stolen cars were almost new. Shorter says there is no money in old, used cars, as it requires too long to dispose of them. Work In Many Cities The detectives say the two men worked their game in Johnsown, Greensburg, Altoona, Klianning, New Kensington, Youngstown and a number of other Ohio cities. This city was the heaviest loser. The prisoners have given the detectives the names of the parties to whom they took the stolen cars. They must to recover the majority of them. Purchasers of the cars will probably be immune from arrest as in every instance, the investigations of the detectives disclose, they purchased the cars under the impression that the fake titles were genuine. WHITE MOOSE ORDER TO PRESS SUIT Preston News Service. Washington, D. C. — The Loyal Order of Moose, white, has always sought to protect itself from duplication.

He added: "The present injunctions pending against colored organizations so-called United States organizers repeated of similar suits instituted in the United States and Canada against previous infringements attempted long before this present attempt was made by colored organizers. They have merely followed others who, rather than create a strongly organized, efficient order of their own, have sought to enjoy the privileges and rights of others, who without effort thereupon, and it is the purpose of this order of Moose to all such present and future attempts as vigorously as the law will permit."

Starting facts were collected in the testimony now first published, Mr. Gannett stated that 10 of the 21 republics in the Western Hemisphere "are under almost complete domination by North American bankers, in all of them. The republics are or have been, supported by American troops on the ground. At least four other countries are closely tied to the United States by fiscal bonds, and in those other concessions and loan contracts, seem likely to lead to a repetition of the old process by which the marines follow the rules in the case the Republic of Saturday, in the case Mr. Gannett, "the bankers, in selling their bonds promised substantially that warships of the United States would be used if necessary to collect their loans." James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for People who was the next to testify, said of the Occupation of Nicaragua and Haiti: "I think that the placing of American troops in those two countries was almost by the protection of the financial interests. The reasons put forth for our intervention in Nicaragua and Haiti, that is, the reasons are that the people think are the true reasons. Indeed, they are sheer hypocrisy." Liberty Life Sets $100,000 Goal The Liberty Life Insurance Company has recently added to its staff another experienced insurance salesman, R. M. Whitted, who has been in the insurance business over 20 years. He was born in the home of the North Carolina Mutual, Durham, N.C. and in his early teens received his first experience with this company. He comes to the Liberty Life from the Afro-American of Jacksonville, Fla., where he was State Representative. Mr. Whitted will be a wonderful asset to the city of Baltimore, as well as to Liberty Life. The local office is the $100,000 bus life set for August 1st. C. H. Diggs, who pledged $25,000 of this amount, has already exceeded his quotation. The other salesmen are all trying to equal Mr. Diggs' record. Mrs. Jas. H. Dennis The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly This is the courtesy list of the Pullman Company, published in the current issue of the "Pullman News." Mr. Albert D. Lasker, Chicago former chairman of the L. S. Shipping Board, commended Porter A. J. Plan (Baltimore), for the kindness he showed care for his son on a recent trip. Maid G. C. Arnett and Porter H. Harvey (Chicago Western), were praised and rewarded for their unreenting care of an old and paralyx woman passenger on the "Oriental Limited" from St. Paul to Seattle. Conductor M. Y. Smith (Louisville) earned the gratitude of a woman passenger by advancing sufficient funds to enable her to complete her journey, she having left her handbag—and money—at home. Nursed Invalid Porter L. Miller (Portland) was highly praised for services rendered a woman passenger traveling with her invalid mother. She certainly do appreciate your hosting my suitcase for me," writes Mr John W. Ponton, Bedford, Va. "It was worth the inconvenience of living just to experience your courteous treat- Steel President Praises Chairman Elbert H. Gary, of the U. S. Steel Corporation directorate, prised the handling of Pullman private car Philadelphia on an official trip in May from New York. He was pulled by Pullman and charge, R. L. Walton was waiter and J. W. Shaughter chef. "The crew worked in harmony, were alert, introus and cheerful, and the servicemen pleased of our trip" wrote Mr. Gary. - Miss Emma Washington Mald Emma Hickman Washington completed 25 years of service with the Pullman Company on July 1, but that does not embrace all bar railroading, as she was with the New York Central railroad, before that. For five years she operated on the New York Central and then entered to the "Twentieth Century" where she now is. Leader of Maids Not only has she been popular and efficient with her passengers, but she has been seen as a model for smiles on this and other noted trains. Her home is in Chicago although she is on the route to several generations of Chicagoans who have used the "Century" and has been the friend of many who is now a matronly social light. Is Also Heroing On December 9, 1923, when one section of this train was rammed by another at Forsyth, N. Y., Maid Washington distinguished herself by his skill and care for the victims. "While I have given the best years of my life to the Pullman Company, I feel that I have been treated in such a manner that if I had 25 years to go over again, I would like to show them Company, and in the same capacity," she said.

Mutual $50,000 Campaign Takes Leap The executive officers of the Afro-American have placed insurance for $15,000 in favor of the Afro-American Company, through the local branch of the North Carolina Mutual. The determination of the officers of this company to make the Afro-American a permanent institution is shown by this progressive move to insure the human assets of the business. This contract gives great impetus to the North Carolina Mutual Confidence Campaign, increasing the total amount written to date to $28,000, with over three weeks to run. Those enrolling during the week include: The Afro-American, 628 Futaw street; Mr. Kenneth MacBeth, 637 Pitcher street; Mr. Will R. Taylor, 1102 Clendenbilt street. MORE LONDON (Continued from Page 1) don, who speaks five foreign languages and who is soon to accept a reportorial paper at Paris. Miss Coussey herself, is anxious to promote interest in and understanding of African handicraft and art. The sitting room in which I was so graciously given tea, was a veritable treasure room of African furnishings. The curtains were from Shera Leone, handwoven from African wool and African silk. Most of the furniture had been made out of African malogany in the Freetown Industrial School, Shera Leone. Platters of hand-heat-en brass and ostrich eggs, covered with burnt and painted leather, decorated the walls. Little elephants, beautifully curved with real ivory tusks, and alligators of malogany stripped with gold, added touches of pink to the summer to the room. Not a single ornament was of European origin. "They often tell me that Africa has no art," said Miss Coussey—"Look at these." And she showed me several ornaments of solid gold beads of mounted pattern; all identical in size and shape and all done by hand; ornaments for the hair of beautiful red gold, worked by hand into the most artistic patterns. In it, the mother leather handbands, made of multi-colored leather—bags for which a Parisienne, or New Yorker would have sufficed a great deal to possess. Other trinkets of African handicraft shown to me included a beautiful string of chony beads overlaid with silver and with a dainty hand-carved silver clasp. "All these," continued Miss Coussey, "were done by Africans and by hand. Can you doubt that a defining art and skill required in making them?"

Burton, well-known clothing merchant, 1214 Pennsylvania avenue. At a meeting of the creditors last Friday, Mr. Burton, through his attorney, submitted special statement of assets of $102,551 liability of $31,333. Creditors were asked to sign an agreement providing for an extension of time, on all indebtedness, until July 1, 1926; and in the meantime, Mr. Burton agreed to purchase for cash from his present creditors as far as possible, such merchandise as he may require for the condition of his business; and to off his indebtedness at the rate of $10,000 a year. According to a statement sent out by J. G. Locker, assistant manager of the Baltimore Association, Mr. Burton established his business about twenty years ago. He has no honorable reputation and is entitled to the cooperation of his creditors in the filing out of his present financial difficulties. His business grew to such an extent that he could not give his personal attention to every department so that mismanagement resulted. Effort will be made to produce amount, paying by customers and a man of expense, will be put in the department. The store does very little cash business, it being principally an installment house. The creditors who attended the meeting Saturday readily agreed to the extension of time for all indulgence until July 15.

Known As the Prompt Paying Company ING STO GOOD MORN GOOD MORNING JUDGE The Afro Court Reporter Shedrick Satchell, agged 18, whose present address is the city jail since he lost his boarding place at 906 Russell street, would have been a free man had he not returned to the scene of his alleged crime. Satchell was haled into the Southern Police Station Saturday morning on charge of stealing and driving Elias Drummond, respectively, of the same address. Both Satchell and the missing articles disappeared Tuesday. He turned up Friday night wearing the suit and not in need of money, a rare thing for Satchell. "Your Honor," Fleming answered when asked how the suit was stolen, "it was like this: Satchell sat in the same house and Tuesday evening he got up extra early. When I got dressed, the suit had gone." Fleming, what about your money?" Drummond was asked. "About the same, Judge. When I woke, it had vanished too." "Judge," said Satchlee, "I just had to make a trip home to Richmond to see my people." "Well, it's a good thing you saw them, because it's going to be many a man before you see them again. $200 buil Talked Themselves Into A Gang Of Trouble The desire to air their personal spleen against each other got Miss Fannie Lewis, 561 W. Hoffman Street and Clarence Rucker, same address, into a lot of trouble Tuesday morning. In a jealous rage, according to Miss Lewis, Rucker had her arrested, because she cast too friendly eyes at one Edward-Wilson, Brewer street. She therefore faced His Honor with none too loving feeling for her one time sweetie. Rucker: Judge, she has too many friends coming to see her to mean me any good. Miss Lewis: Well, is that so? Just for that I am going to tell the judge how to bring the house there for immoral purposes. The Magistrate: Yes, go on. Rucker: Ask her how she makes her living, Judge. Miss Lewis: Well, Judge, he don't make his living preaching the gospel. When the verbal tilt was over and the desk sergeant had written down enough evidence to hold Rucker for keeping a disorderly house, and Miss Lewis for leading a disorderly course of life, they were both held for the action of the grand jury. Miss Douglass Said Good Morning Twice She said "good morning judge" Sunday morning; she said "good morning judge" Monday morning; on Tuesday, she said, "well, I am going to be a judge."

Mrs. Lonia Blake, coming to distance, was also put to sleep by her wallop. She was then about to fight and looking for more worlds to conquer when the officers arrived and several of them joined in, persuading her to go to the station house.
