STREETS Faces Indicate They Were From America's Lower Strata. Washington, D. C., (Afro Bureau)--The greatest demonstration of intolerance ever held in a land dedicated to tolerance was staged here last Saturday when the hordes of the Ku Klux Klan marched down historic Pennsylvania avenue. Unimpressivo The parade was huge, but not impressive. To the tune of hymns, more than 30,000 white-robed figures in full Klan regalia, save the mask and with arms folded, marched down the historic parade-ground. Three solitary horsemen and riders led the ghostly figure of the Klan, led the procession. They were followed by Acting Superintendent of Police Brans, with a detail of mounted policemen. Then came imperial Evans, of Dallas, led the order of the in purple robe. He surrounded by a purple robe. He back of them came the motley legions of Klanmen—men, women and children. From physical appearances, they had come from the elements of American life. There was not a klieg procession of Klanmen, the prototype of the intelligent, clean-out American. Crowds Apathetic The crowd that viewed the parade was apathetic. Enthusiasm spectators was apparently klieg, and there was but little apause as the monotonous figures white, went by. Official Washington was not in the lines that extends both sides of the treasury, from the Capitol to the Treasury, nor was there any official recognition of the presence of the Klanmen except that embodied in the police regulations and permit to parade. President Coolidge remained at Swampscott, and but a few members of Congress Even civilian Washington appeared to avoid recognition of the Klan. The usual decorations and signs of welcome displayed in shop windows and on buildings in the cities of great cities in the United States entirely lacking. There was no a single sign of, welcome displayed in the whole city. Negro In Parade Scattered among the sectarians were a small number of colored persons. The greatest number watched the parade at the intersection of Seventh street and the Avenue. One colored man participated in the parade. He was a driver of a car and was among three women dressed in the costumes of the Civil War period, rode. On the slopes of the Washington Monument grounds the Klansmen gathered for night services. It was there that Klansmen prayed for rain to stop, received a drenching Race Separation While the rain was putting the Klanmen to route, the Rev. H. A. College, of Columbus, Ohio, hovered an address in which he said, "The Klan will appear to race prejudice, but that is not true. The Klan stands for unity of the races. The glory of the black man is in his black skin, and the glory of the white man is in his white skin. As long as the black man is in black skin and the white man is in white skin, but when men enclose the bounds of race and create a race of monogrels, there is war. The mingling of blood always causes wars. The Klan is determined that the races men shall remain in God intended for them. Black, black, black, the white, white; and the yellow, yellow. And until that time comes the Klan will not die. If that is race malice, then let people make the best of it." Crow Law Advocated. Sunday the Klan held invitation ceremonies in the Arlington here show grounds, during which a cross was burned. One of the speakers at these ceremonies the Rev. Thomas Calvin Jones, Methodist, minister of Oxford, Milton, Mass.迎来了 law for the District of Columbia. Forty Injured In Wreck Morkana. Ark.

CAMERAS CLICK AS MISSOURI MOB LYNCHES Alleged Highwayman Dragged Through Streets And Hanged To Tree POLICE MAKE NO ATTEMPT TO RESIST Coroner Says Death Caused By Mob Of Persons "Unknown" Excelsior Springs, Mo.—Apathy of the city and country officials, led to the lynching of Walter Mitchell Saturday by a mob numbering less than two hundred persons in broad day light. Mitchell was accused of holding up a girl and her male companion in an auto on the state road and attempting to attack her. J. F. Craven, chief of police, advised that the man as soon as captured be taken to Liberty, Mo., for safe keeping, when he arrived, Craven's resistance weakened and the mob had an easy time overpowering the deputies, not a one of which was hurt. The jail located in the same building with the fire department was also captured and finally entered by the simple expedition of sounding a false alarm. Mitchel in handcuffs was taken from a cell and dragged thru the principal streets just outside of town and dumping in the building rope. Police from Kansas City arrived a quarter of an hour after all was over. A battery of cameras took photos of the lynching and the mob members. Despite this however, the coroner wrote the dead had been dead and that death was due to hanging by a "mob of persons unknown." Garveyites Scrap Philadelphia, Pa., (A.N.P.)—It was necessary for the police to respond to an alarm which someone sent in on Sunday afternoon last when a meeting of the Universal National Improvement Association had a "bitter ending." President Fred A. Toot, who it is alleged, had been charged with several offenses, with misappropriating funds, had been told that he could not preside at the meeting. He attempted to do so over the protest of those present, which ended in his being wounded while being forcibly taken from the rostrum at the hall of the association, 13th and South streets. Several of the members were injured, some more or less seriously, and four are still in the hospital. An Old Companion on Your Vacation Readers going out of town can buy THE AFRO at a store.

Dr. Ernest Lyons, of Baltimore, Liberian Counsel) General, who had been informed by radiogram earlier in the week of the intended arrival was on board the government trip, which met the Paris down the bay and took off the distinguished pass- enger before the steamer docked. Diplomatic courtesies were exchanged between the visitor and representatives of the State department, before he was driven to his departments in the Ambassador Ho- tel. Secretary Barclay's errand to this country so far is a secret mission. He comes here direct from Paris, France, where he protested in the name of his government against the occupation where Liberian frontier police were arrested and inhabitants threatened with death unless they became French. Whether he is to seek the aid of the United States in halting French aggressions, revive the question of the occupation by Harding but turned down by Congress, or negotiate with American Bankers for a Liberian Loan is not known. Liberian despatches recently announced the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company, an American concern, had offered its aid in getting Liberian property in provision of the guerra granted it certain concessions. The Firestone company already has developed 10,000 acres in Liberia as a rubber plantation in order to escape the high prices in the British rubber market.

ARMY CAMPS TEACH CANADIAN WHISKEY RACE HATRED FOR RICHMOND Camp Custer, Mich—Joseph Plotkin, charged with being a member of the Young Workers (Communist) League, was expelled from Camp Custer by the officers in charge for being "against capitalism," after a "trial" presided over by Major Andrews and a colonel, with Lieutenants Evans and Kruther acting as prosecutors. The Daily Worker Says Lieutenant Evans is in charge of the course in "citizenship." Some of the things he tried to teach Plotkin and the other students were: "The Negroes are no good. If the legislatures do not pass laws to get them out of the country, there will be lots and they will be shipped out or killed off. This may not be so situational or for fear." Evans is a, southerner and bears all the earmarks of a member of the ku klux klan. Against Trade Unions "Good citizens should be against the trade unions. None of them are any good.

Canada, and transported to Richmond, Va., would be really surprising to the ordinary law-abiding citizen, who is on the outside of the situation. The traffic is being carted to Richmond for the big Elk Convention there. Restaurant and cafe keepers there, who have bloomed over night, in all of the colored section, called Jackson Ward, are the highest bidders. It has been long known that whiskey has been going into Richmond from Havana, Cuba, without any particular alarm or necessity, but it now seems that the city on the noble James has out-grown this supply and in its efforts to doll up for a speeches is making handsome bids to other sources for the ink tea. The social clubs here have reaped to raap a harvest. This is saying nothing of the mushroom places who are paying any price for a hole in the wall to pull their show during this great convention.

Judge Mix decided that in a trial replete, with thrills last week, while a crowded court room looked on. Winston was actually freed twice for as he walked out of the court room, after being freed by Judge Mix the first time. Sheriff Winges, white, of Megget, S.

Mistaken Identity C. H. Hethington, white, has been seeking the slayer of his brother since 1904. In this city, he spied Winston on the street; had him arrested, and telegraphed. Sheriff Winges to come take the prisoner back to Caroline. Requisition papers were signed by Governor Baker. Winston employed as a Hireman in Hickory as with instituted habeas corpus proceedings, and brought the case before the court on its merits. Looked Like Him Winston established that the requisition papers called for Samuel Brown, while his name was Nathanial Winston; that his home was in Sumpter, and that he had never been in South Carolina, and that the only identification Hethington had was that he looked like the man who murdered his brother. Even Winston were the man, convinced, pleaded, he could not get a fair trial in North Carolina, and would probably be lynched. HEADS KENTUCKY MASONS Lexington, Ky.-Dr. T.

Bobbie Wallace, of Indianapolis, at the wheel of the lion's share of the gold by leading the dacel across the line after 1 hour, 3 minutes, 26.3-5 seconds of daredevil driving. His average speed for the entire race was 64.9 miles per hour. His was the eighteenth car at the start of the race, but he must have been holding back at the time of the qualifications, for he was soon roaring around the oval along with the leaders.

C.—President Coolidge has under consideration the appointment of a person to fill a vacancy in the Civil Commission resulting from the death of Mrs. Helen H. Gardner. One Of "17 Points" The appointment of a colored person as a Civil Service Commissioner was one of the seventeen points given to the press by William C. Matthews, who directed the Co., and who was the first person, all the time these seventeen points were made public. It was announced that they constituted the irreducible minimum which women are required to demand of the administration as a reward for the support of colored Republicans. There are already a dozen candidates in the field. Women are particularly determined that the successor to Mrs. Gardner shall be a woman and are waging a political fight to this end. Ex-service men want one of the positions but reports from the summer White House at Swampy, Mass. indicate that the President is inclined to appoint a woman of independent political lean. No Colored Candidate As yet no colored person has been proposed for the place, notwithstanding that men of color are the officers and the men of color, Charles E. Mitchell, of Charleston, W. Va., and Robert L. Vann, of Pittsburgh, Pa., are admitted fitted for the office. Likewise, women excellently equipped to fill the place. Party affiliations, however, would not be required of the men mentioned. The law provides that there shall not be more than two members of the commission who are not members of the commission. Bob William C. Deming, the president of the commission, and George R. Wales, the other member, are Republican. The commission generally construed as limiting the appointment to the Republican and Democratic parties, but spokersmen for the Presidential nomination are independent. It that be his attitude, the name of Edward W. Henry, of Philadelphia, or some other colored person, affirmations lightly it is said should be proposed for the place. Rewoirs There are not less than fifty thousand colored persons in the Government service applicants yearly. Charges of discrimination in appointments to Federal offices on account of color are continually being being charged. A commission was created to do away with the "spoils system" and see to it that persons are given Gov. errant commission. A commission by appointment officers and protect the interest of colored applicants. Ordinance Q. Morton can serve successfully as a member of the Civil Service Commission in New York, by party of reason. A commission by appointment as a member of the Civil Service Commission in Washington.

Student Strike Again In Prospect. Alumni Organizing For Biggest Fight Yet. DURKEESE AND HOWARD UNIVERSITY Br Alumnus The administration is girding its lions for a stiff battle with the alumni. Press reports of the activity of the university have broken the rest of Howard's $10,000 president, who remains far from the maddening crowd, in the sequestered moats of Maine. The university is still maintaining with an abundance of convincing evidence, that Dr. Durkee has no qualification for his job. In education experience this wince found wanting. His methods, which would make the most unsusceptible politician wince, have been exposed; and attention has been called to the unsuspectable colors of America. Durkee Flies Since the alumni's incessant bombardment, dating from early spring, Dr. Durkee has fled from oh, hazardous position to another, but has not returned in a courageous stand. For example, he was driven from his Negro-hating school in Boston, when the shrapnel of the press exploded all around him. In battle, next routed him from his pension rule fortress. Just when he was about to force the surrender of Dain Cook, the alumn rushed to the rescue, and the young age was saved. According to the explanation of one of Dr. Durkee's spokesmen, "Dean Cook holds over for one year because of a subsequent condemnation and experiences." $400 Increase Can you beat it? The administration grew somewhat turbulent because Alumnus published the news Dean Cook. Such action was denied. It was said that there was no intention of pensioning Dean Cook this fall; its fears were allayed with a $400 grant, and he was christened "Emertus." Now a very reliable spokesman says that Dean Cook was "heated over" the $400 grant, and it was never contemplated that Dean Miller should be dropped, all of which means that Dean Cook was to be dropped. He insists that the so-called merger of the School of Commerce and Finance contemplated, at first, the obliteration of that work. He also insists that Professor Hines, and Mr. Thornton, in spite of the expert's report. As has been pointed out, apparently the most attractive portions of the essay were to excuse for cleaning house. Kelly Miller Am her hot battle that mide Drurke shift his position resulted in a partial victory in shooting a Kolumni art court shooting a Kolumni Miller out of the college. Thus far he has succeeded only in routing Professor Miller out of his deanship. But Mutter light is being wugged in illustrations dean to his former status. Timely and stubborn skirmishes in the cause of right and decency are the greatest engagement is just dawning. The alumni, with the aid of all self-respecting Negroes, are determined to oust Drurke. Dungue, supported by his trustees and a few followers, who have a perfect right to their convictions, is determined remain, even if the appropriation lies. Propaganda While the alumni are fighting in the open, baring Dr. Durkee's weaknesses as head of a great institution, an insidious prophecy that Negro is being spread to discredit Dr. George Frazier Miller, President of the Howard University and serving argument with argument, the administration will make no attempt at a refutation. Neither Dr. Durkee nor any member of the Board of Trustees will go to be brought up in this column. The plan is to give the whole movement a black eye, by concentrating attention on Dr. Miller—an old trick, characteristic of midwed politi- Peeplr Dyed Red An appeal is to be made (possibly already being made) to high government officials, influential congressmen, and other officials to show that the president of the Bowen Alumni Association is a Bolshievist—a deeply dreded Red. As evidence of this charge, an effort will be made (possibly by Dr. Miller's association with Randolph Owens, and Garvey, suggests his Bolshievist leanings. A search is being made for speeches of Dr. Miller, delivered during the war. Some of his speeches are printed in the Congressional Record. Charge Urged The charge to be urged against him is that he has always been imperial to constituted authority, law, order, and government. Therefore he should not allow a group headed by such a leader to influence legislation respecting Howard University, is akin to turning the institution into a prison, because it is the plan of the administration to throw the alumni suddenly on the defensive. There is no earthly hope of coping with the offensive drive of the alumni, and the administration is actually. Attention is to be drawn from Dr. Durkee to Dr. Miller. Plan Falls Had the plan remained under cover, its sadness might have embarrassed temporarily; but now time had come to face the reality of factices he did as Dr. Durkee's seven-year educational program, now silent among the other trash in his waste-basket. The soiled people of America, especially those who put the advancement of their race above servile henchmanship, are solemnly warned that the disgraceful condition at Iowan "invasion" not only was a serious but an awful interest; it concerns every self-respecting Negro in this country. Alumni Foremost Naturally the Howard Alumni have been foremost in preserving the alumni maters, but the right must not be left to them alone. If Howard to University were like other great universities in placing the right to serve the alumni, where it legitimately be placed, the alumni would not have to open. The situation existing at Howard para trustees elected by alumni must necessarily respect the will of their classmates, and elect and perpetuate themselves. There is a growing feeling that the president himself nominates new trustees, himself, is a member of the board. How It Works Employed by the trustees, Dr. Duckee, by virtue of being a trustee, he is the advocate of voice, and vote, in the matter of his own retention. If he is a good filibuster, he can actually intervene and from ever taking action to oust him. As long as the trustee board remains the trustees' own creation, the trustees will be the force for moral support in a matter of this gravity. The public should become thoroughly acquainted with the trouble that the trustees are asked to remove. Casual Reader The casual reader does not always give minute attention to discussions somewhat academic. To hit the dropping of professors and the need for real significance, he may not be interested in salary adjustments, for he may himself, be suffering under some salary injustice. He therefore let us write for the time being every issue in this Howard contention but the one that should be felicitely by every self-respecting colleague be addressed to that Dr. Durkee recently hosted at all Negroes, etc. every colored person who has respect enough to merit enrollment into manhood or womanhood, make some decision or against Dr. Durkee. Curry School This is what Dr. Durkee, president of a colored university, did. With full knowledge in advance and violation, he accepted the presidency of the School of Law. Boston, which school does not admit colored students. The collarline is tightly tight. When Dr. Durkee, as president of that school, was questioned on the matter, he frankly admitted that he had not admitted colored applicants. He remained president of that school seven months, with the additional influence attached to his presidency of the corporation, as well as of the administration, and with the influence towards colored applicants. Hearr Stockholder? As president of the corporation, he must have been a heavy stockholder. He would hardly have been made president of the corporation consideration. He remained perfectly mute on the color question, and resigned only when the press shamed him of his new color. He was not the only person who lived people was so florid that the press of both races ridiculed him. Did Dr. Durkee be the one who knewingly and admittedly, accepted the permanent presidency of the administration and corporation of a school that refuses to admit colored students. Waive Folly For the time being, even waive his fully in attempting to run two schools, when he had not displayed talent in running one. Warrior his talent in running two colored school, paying his salary for a Negro-hat school, five hundred miles distant. Overlook the painful fact that when the striker broke out he was in Boston at the commencement of his Negro-hat school. Let no necessary issue cloud, the real issue which should unite the colored people of America. On this day he was at the Dr. Durkee upon the Negro race. As president of the colored peoples' largest and test equipped institution of higher learning, he must be applauded for usefulness to his constituency. Humiliation No matter how well he may stand with his local friends, his worth as president of Howard University must be recognized. The people. are the colored people willing to submit to this humiliating atrout, which was wholly uncalled for. Can Dr. Durrice successfully serve Howard University by having one policy towards the colored race in Boston? Can he be a Boston? Can he be sanctioned by section, if not by word, the exclusion from the joys and benefits of education men and women, on account of their color, from the head of a colored university? Door Barred How can Dr. Durkee now exhort students to aprire to the very best in life, when he himself keeps the door barred against them in another city? He has taught them to be manly and womanhood, when clear determines, with him, the road to its position is untenable. He does not wear a cloak. An athlete has business presiding over a Christian institution. A khanman is out of place as president of a Catholic institution. A gentleman should never be placed over a Hebrew school. An exponent of race should have no place over a Negro institution. An Affront If the colored people, in the light of this clearly sturted issue, feel that Dr. Durkee has not offered the race an affront, has not grossly insisted the hopes of their aspiring boys and girls, let them apprise him of their approval of his act. If, however, they feel that he has grossly betrayed his trust as the leader of the colored people, in the light of colored people such acts as not to recognize an insult, or has arrogantly assumed the right to treat colored people according to his peculiar views, regardless of their status, in the light of his inhui to push him out of his position as leader of the race. Harder And Harder It is becoming harder and harder for white men to take the leadership of colored people, for they cannot possibly feel the yearnings, the nostalgia and the joy of being black people. This indifference of Dr. Durkex is but one of many indications of this fact. It is not necessary to be a Howard alumnus to join this movement of black men in which he cannot be useful. Only manhood or womanhood is necessary for membership. The alumni are not passing the hat, cup, or plate. Theirs is no financial campaign. It is a stand for those prefect possessions which all races cherish. Organization Aid Asked Every Negro*organization, male or female, fraternal or non-fraternal, social, or otherwise D. Durkee for his act. The facts have been clearly stated, with all other issues removed for the time being. It is not the responsibility of the authority of this column. Sufficient time remains for every organization to appoint a committee to investigate and charge If the investigation reveals these facts as stated, self-respect requires that resolutions be drawn, making Dr. Durkret to retire because of his subsequent uselessness. University, University, University, the Editor of the AFO-AMERICAN, or presented through any other agency. Resolutions Such resolutions are being drawn by the alumni, some of whom were once among the most loyal supporters of the Howard administration must be shown that, although the alumni are taking the initiative all self-respecting Negroes are seconding their movement. The administration is trying to pull a big political trick, by attempting to discredit the president or the Howard Alumni Association, or all sorts of organizations. There can be no legitimate excuse for dodging this responsibility. The way to advance and uplift the race is to take positive stands when grave injustices Send Students Elsewhere Aside from this method of expressing race pride, guardians and well-wishers can render effective help by sending their wards to other institutions until the Dr. Durkee resigns. This is one of the most difficult cases he will not leave Howard University, Howard University must leave him. Such action, especially in the case of prospective entering students, will not be a serious handicap. Even the students become necessary, this ought to be done for the benefit of the race. Students Decide Already a number of students have decided to receive a course in the spring, when the work was abruptly interrupted, and the possibility of a recurrence have opened many students away from Howard. Serious young men and young women prefer studying in an atmosphere of learning. Univer-士es are often together too, strikes in the last five years to advertise it favorably. The loyal sons and daughters of Howard hope that the course will be but many of the students feel that CEDAR HEIGHTS, MD.

Baltimore, Md. NATION THE BIRD'S PREXY or Exposed. Student Fight Yet. Regardless of strikes our young men and women should be placed under a leadership, which is in sympathy with the men and women. There can be no yielding on this point. We want our young men and women trained in manhood and womanhood through "front door" methods, not "back door" practices. We want our young men and women to know when they have been imposed upon, when they have been freed from their duties. We want them to realize that a race that cannot be insulted can never climb to racial greatness; that the elemental test of race pride is the ability to recognize that results are recognized and resented. This does not mean the employment of harsh names, bricks, or blows. There is an orderly way to present. Only the orderly way wins No greater lesson could be taught white America than by letting the colored people make known that they have pride in expressing themselves. Dr. Durkee, who for seven months protracted the policy of keeping colored students out of the Curry School of Expressions, and who has been compunning in his retirement, would receive genuine respect another time. Perhaps Dr. Durkee will finally see colored people's point of view and offer his resignation. If he is made to feel that he really has no further usefulness at Howard University, he is likely to accept the newspapers verdict of his spent usefulness. For this reason, the public must make some expression. The Press The colored press has had some trouble with matters, but much more ought to be written. It is hoped that the press will make an investigation of this issue, as well as of the other issues involved. Howard University, in the meantime, is suffering, while Dr. Durkee seems set upon remaining. If he remains, he will have a sight on his hand, and he will have time for other matters. The troubles with the faculty are by no means at an end. Cries of injustice over the way in which he has just been handed the helm will have been being heard on all hands. If he does not go in peace, he will remain in storm. Professors Point The next article will give the Howard professors oint of view on the way they are treated in salary considerations. So eager are they for the public to have their view that a pamphlet is published on the subject. LINCOLN PARK, MD.

HALL Spiritualism QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS By Dr. T. R. Hall Psychic Science Service Department Q—Can all people develop and become mediums? A—It is probable that all, have a spark of divine fire within this, have a marked degree, produce what we call mediums. Others that have not so much of this quality of fire cannot hope to become mediums. Q—Do spiritualists advocate immortality? A—Spiritualism is a religion, and religion of any kind, has ever been able to abolish immortality in any age. Q—Do the souls of perfect beings returned to earth plane? A—It is to be remembered that no soul except that of the Christ has ever left this plane perfect, and must pass away as the Christ Spirit has passed through. Thus those experiences they become perfect, and they can and do return and graduate their love and happiness an analysis, even as the Christ Spirit has passed through the realing of purification following His precepts.

The winner of the final tests was Ms. Marguerite Avery of New York she will be personally trained by Elidao Ferrari-Fontana, notated of the Metropolitan Opera Company. It is planned to present the writer after an intensive course training in opera, for a role being particularly fitting for a singer because she is as the daughter of Amouston, wife of Ethiopia. Artist Is Acclaimed Mrs. McAbee sang La Porgue's "song of the Oen," and received voluntary applause from the large and appreciative audience, as well as personal felicitations from the musicians present. The uplift was also recorded the signal disruption of being requested to give a private audition for Mr. F. Pennington's room at Schumacher's Public Displining Company. The auditors proposed Mrs. McAbee's voice beau- Heard "Mda" On last Thursday, Mrs. McAbey appeared at another private recital in Town hall, before Mr. Bellwood, the conductor of the New York, and other musical performances. She was also presented with tickets for "Aida" rendered by the Chris Opera Company at Emmanuel An audience of 40,000 attendees. Delighted With Trip Mrs. McAbe space enthusiastically of her trip, which she said was delightful. The artist seemed particularly entusiastic over the fact that she was enabled to form associations with so many celebrated artists and to find fields that these contacts will prove of practicable value in the future. Singer Is Popular The singer is the wife of Mr William H. McAbee, of 1225 West Lafayette avenue, principal of Washoe Bay School, who accompanied her. Long remembered as one of the city's most gifted artists the has by her art, gratitude and joy, she is a proud and heroic who predict that she will eventually achieve nation-wide fame on the concert stage. Watch The Gorilla Walk On Tip-Toes London, England. (A.N.P.)—According to Dr. Hubert Poock, who spoke before the annual meeting of osteopaths in this city, walking on one's thighs is one of the best curbs and preventives for ailments. He claimed it to be especially helpful in cases of diabetes, how the human frame can best be supported, he explained. "The gorilla's tremendous chest is the result of its posture. Men must learn to walk on their toes." No "Darky" For Them Buffalo, August.—Colored persons who were in the audience at Grace M. E. Church to witness the exhibition of stereotypical slides recently refused to join in singing "Old Kentucky Home," containing the objectionable term "darky." Suspecting that something was audible and white had inquired inquiry, Negro had an abhorrence for any song that employed insulting terms, assurance was given the protestants that the number would never be shown in the church again. Seals In Florida Ernest Seals dropped the office a line from Pensacola. The trouper says that he has 18 people in the theatre, and has a real show. He was playing the Belmont theatre at the time. Enters Ballet School Los Angeles, August.—Miss Louise Chism one of the principal Slave Dancers in the recent production of the "Star of Ethiopia" has been selected from a large group of applicants for admission to the Koeloff Ballet Dancing School. Miss Chism has splendid technique, and is expected to achieve much as an aesthetic master. Theodore L. Johnson, harbion, appeared in recital at Wesley Chapel on Tuesday night.

PRIMA DONNA MAY SING IN EUROPE D~ Silva Said To Sing Grand Opera Roles In Four Languages (By Illustrated Press) New York, Aug. 10.—The Illustrated Press late last night, obtained exclusive and confirmed information as to the future intention of America's operatic prima donna. It is Cecilia De'Sylla of the International Negro Grand Opera company, who has just agreed to sign a contract to return to Europe next month, whether we sing under an American contract. She is the lone woman in New York who enjoys the exclusive distinction of being a member of the American and Sciences of New York. Sings In Four Tongues DeSylva sings in four different foreign languages, and whenever playing the character of any particular grand opera role, she usually adapts herself so thoroughly into the original person that it is long after she comes off that she can regain her real soft again. She Is Milliner She is the proprietress of the only French-American military store on fashionable Seventh avenue, in Harlem. The electrical expositions in her show windows are wonderful. The personnel of the Miller company in its second week here remains the same except for the absence of Wallace Curtis the comedian who appeared here last week. Van Epps has been given a can of whiskey to drink, a chance of glattle De Gaston in the funny division. Van Epps obeyed orders and acquitted himself nobly. Some "imugging" in one of the bits was decidedly amusing. The main comedian bears the main comedy burden. His high-sit was some abbreviated talk delivered in the jargon of the West Indies having to do with Marcus Garvey, the I, N, X, I, A, Black Star Line etc. and Wallace Curtis himself. His high-sit was earned him some 24 carat appraisal. Wallace Curtis sang and crooned a number with Miss Brown that floated the customers and literally stopped the show. The last number was a family type crooned itself into immediate popularity on Monday afternoon preventing De Gaston and Yuen from doing their specialty for fully four minutes. Miss Greedy hasn't been given much to do, but does that It is evident that the construction of the miniature musical has been undertaken with an eye single to the tastes of a majority of the customers. Nothing thrilling or pretentious, merely a tonic which exhibitions for the house or exhibitions for the public all of Jerving's productions in the chorus moves about its work with spirit and precision. Monday's matinee audience was large and eagerly demonstrative from the orchestra trench to the fire line.

The paths of human d limited and finite powers are Maybe the older folk were not thinking of things theatrical, when they colted that homely, but true adage, "There is no use grieving over spilled milk." However in their application of the proverb I am sure that they were correct. When one reflects and recalls Bob Cole, Williams and Walker, John (Loubrie) Hill, Ernest Mogan, S. H. Dudley and their musical productions, and that they with all of their perfection and brains were unable to get a hearing or make money one cannot but have sympathetic pangs.

Charlots of that day were superior to the average principal now. Musical numbers were original and beautiful and not pirated or written by oays. Books were not mere episodes hung together by slight strings and foisted on the public as plots. Men like Jesse Shipp were commissioned to write them, and the execution of their work produced something of cumulative interest and sane continuity. Like Tennyson's "Brook" I might go on indefinitely singing the praises of those martyrs who were the cornerstone upon which the youngster of today has built.

The local reviewer opined that the success would lead to the production of other plays on African themes written in the native language. Continuing he admonishes the natives thus: "The literary and social culture of Africa in the local colonies to dramatize and present episodes in the various tribes of people that young men listen to the old men's tales and the old women's songs, and write them down." Continuing he said: "These are the beginning of history and if they are not preserved in your own history, the internal history of the tribes and peoples and their mutual relations will be lost. Of African music the writer thinks that "African music suffered even more than English music by the death of Coleridge-Taylor." The key to understanding it is sitting on the possibilities of Africa as a mother of rymes and themes, and for a worthy pendant to the ideal Indian jewel "Hiwatah." Unfortunately the fatal illness carried him off before he could make the trig to West Africa. The task of musical exploration of Africa has been undertaken by Mr. N. G. T. Rattalma Taylor who is making a tour seeking a harvest of folk-music in Senegal, Gambia, and French Guinea. To the universally growing interest in Negroes and their music attention has been directed largely in these columns of the Afro-American. The theme of emphasis on African dramatic art and music are both editing and encouraging. The Negro seems to be nearing recognition in the field of fine arts to a greater extent than ever before.

MISS ORA WASHINGTON WINS LADIES SINGLES Downs Miss Junior Second Time For Ladies Title Youth was served in the finals of the Monumental Trunks Club open championships, held on the courts at Drudg Hill park last saturday when young Ted Thompson, 19-year-old Washington boy, and Wilberforce College sophomore, defeated Dr. B. M. Riotta, veteran player, and President of the Baltimore Club in straight sets, 10-8, 6-0, 11-9. Miss Ora Washington of Philadelphia, swept all opposition before her to win the championships in the ladies singles, by defeating Miss Junior of Philadelphia, 6-2, 6-1. Earlier in the afternoon, Thompson paired with Tally Holmes, national title holder in men's singles, and defeated Dr. Rhea and Rev. W. Walker, in men's doubles. Rheta and Walker were completely swamped. The score was 6-0, 6-0, 6-0. Johnnie Wilkinson, of Washington and Miss Washington, won the mixed doubles title, by defeating Dr. Rheta and Miss Nellie Nicholson, 6-4, 6-4. Climax Thompson's brilliant victory came a climax to one of the greatest court battles over hold here. Dr. Rhetta summoned all of his resourcefulness and court generalship in the crucial points, young Thompson rose to heights, and consistently held to the attacking position at the net. Thompson was a master at the net position, and when in this position, he forced Dr. Rhetta to play the ball he wanted it played. The first set was a grilling battle of 18 games, the game constantly see-sawing, with the Washington boy invariably taking to roll in strength and stamina from Dr. Rhetta, as Teal came back to win the next set—6-0. Twenty Games The third est, which required 20 games to decide, brought forth the best in both players. Dr. Theta made several attempts to wrest the attacking position from the and when he managed to assume the net, forcing Ted to the back court, he had his opponent at a disadvantage, and usually won the point. However, Ted was not to be caught often and in this manner he stuck to the net. This comelled Dr. Theta to be almost constantly the run from the base line to the court. Different Shots Thompson has a chop that is deadly, that is, it has a minimum rebound. Dr. Rhetta played a driving game, and she stole sticks to make them effective. It was almost uneasy the way Ted returned many difficult shots. The fans were very partisan, and shots that should have brought a heavy hand from the gallery went without a sound. The fans gave the young star praise, for the excellent shots was Dr. Rhetta, him- Court Conditions Court conditions were ideal for the finals. The rain on Wednesday had sufficiently died to leave the courts in excellent condition and fast. Thompson gave another brilliant performance when jailed with Tally Holmes, the national doubles champion, defeated Rhetta and Walker. Here, again, Ted was at his best when at the net. Rev. Walker was not at his best in this match, and failed to show full character that characterized his easy matches. Philly Girl Miss Ora Washington, of Philadelphia, who has been called the bronze Helen Wills, did not have to extend herself to defend her title. Miss Washington defended Miss Junior the previous week for the singles title, in the Lawnside tournament, held in New Jersey. Miss Washington is one of the few ladies that is not afraid to run, and that is world of court. The remarkable one-sided character of the match made it hard for Miss Washington to show her true form. In spite of being out-clashed, Junior, at no point, offended it. It was hopeless against the bronzed flash. One of the most ardent tennis fans of the county, Mrs. C. O. Seanus, said to be past 60, Chikac, was president and played an exhibition with Miss Nicholls. Miss Nicholls 6-3, Mrs. Seanus was unimpressed in the ladies' singles match. Exhibitions Another exhibition match was played between young Ed Carroll, of Baltimore, and Bert Syphix, of Washington. These youngsters played a brand of tennis that almost equaled the ranks in many singles.

STRANGE WINS NET TITLE IN PHILLY Veteran Racqueter of Germantown Defeats Norman Reid For Championship SIXTY GAMES PLAYED BEFORE CONTEST IS WON Miss Ballard and Villanova Win Mixed Doubles By Defeating Ballard and Young Philadelphia—It took sixty games to decide the tennis championship of Philadelphia in the finals of the men's singles on the Y. W. C. A. courts last Saturday afternoon. Ross Surange, veteran raccquetter of the Germantown club, came through this crucible and won the coveted crown by defeating Norman Reld, a youthful star by scores of 4-6, 4-6, 6-6, 7-5, 12-10. Th mixed doubles championship went to Miss Lula Hallard and Villanova, when they defeated Miss Algeria Hallard and Clarence Young, 6-2, 7-5. Finals To Be Played The finals in men's doubles still remain to be played. Teal and Thomas are already finalists in this event, but the semi-finals match between Strange and Grinell and Gordon and Ash is not yet completed. One set was played on Thursday Strange and Grinell winning 6-4, State tie has been fixed for the completion of this much-delayed tournament. Bitterly Contested The Strange-Reid match was bitterly contested throughout. Reid is one of the young players, who has taken up the driving game, and has shown wonderful improvement this season. He began the match at top speed and held back a sure winner at the end of second set, but with the score two sets to nothing against him, Strange changed his style of play, rushed the net constantly and took the third set at 6-0. Strange Wins Then began the long grind with Reid playing superbly whenever Strange took the lead, but falling down shots when he found himself ahead. Several times the youth was within one point of the match before Strange, by brilliant net play, managed to take the 7-5. The last set found both men tired and again as in the fourth set Reid let several chances slip through their hands, and was quick to grasp his opportunity and make good use of it. The veteran finally came through with a 12-10 victory. Mixed Bouts Star On Week End Cards Mixed Bouts Star On Week End Cards New York, N.

Y.—Jack Dempsey has agreed to meet Harry Wilts according to the latest ultimatum issued by the heavy-weight champion. Fidel Fitzsimmons, a promoter, has Dempsey's signature to a contract to fight Wilts, but a small paragraph in the paper calls for the sum of $1,000,000 in cash or a certified check in the bank before Dempsey steps into the ring. This amount will represent Jack's share and unless this money is put up the rest of the contract is rendered null and void. Of course, before the fight takes place, Wilts will have something to say about his end of the gate, which will amount to about a half million. According to Dempsey, he will fight "sometimes" in 1926, "ground about" July "something" here. Chi- Wills-Tunney Gene Tunney, New York heavy-weight challenger, returned here today from Saratoga Springs, N.Y. to discuss with Promoter Tex Rickard terms for a fight with Harry Wills.

ROBERT X. GIERING Philadelphia. Pa.—Pounding the curves of Bullet Campbell and Script Lee, to all corners of the halls, the Harrisburg cohons handed the Hildale team a fine pasting in the Saturday afternoon matinee at the Hildale ball yard. The final count was 11 to 4. The team was out of the ball that was extremely difficult for Colonel Strothers' Harrisburg Giants to fathom, while the Hildale missiles maulers stugged with men on the basepaths with the result that the Darby Daisles chalked up another victory and sent the Law Makers trailing five full games in the wake of the game by a score of 6 to 3 on Thursday. Not A League Game Saturday's game was not a lacqua contest, the clubs filling the Hilldale schedule due to the Wilmington Potomac team, withdrawing from the league. The teams were a big tac tator in the home clubs victory on Thursday.

Carr's bit of the after-passing. Carr Hits A Homer In fact he personally accounted for enough runs to clinch the en- trance. He drove the Briggs and Stevens on the paths Carr drove a home run to deep cen- tral territory. He drove the game in the fifth inning, when his double was followed by Mackey's. SIKI DISOUALIFIED IN SILVANI FIGHT Singular Senegal Owned Thru Eight Rounds And Bout Is Stopped By Referee SIKI'S END OF PURSE HELD BY COMMISSION Conqueror Of George Carpentier Faces Long Suspension For Monkey Actions By Dick Thomas New York. — Battling Sikh, that singular Senegal, finally worked himself into trouble with the Boxing Commission. He is now in the class with Jack Dempsey. Ever since he first came to this country, the wild and woody African has been more or less on the wrong side of the police officials, and last Saturday, he took the fatal step that may mean a long suspension for him. At the Commonwealth S. C., before the largest crowd of Sikh elites and broke so many of the rules of the boxing game that referee Andy Griffin disqualified him in the eighth round of a scheduled twelve-round set to beat Joe Silvani, white, of Brooklyn. Comic Opera Siki opened the battle with a great show to the customers, acting as though he thought the whole affair a last. Then he would open up with a two-dated tatto to the face and body of the Bronx Italian, and then he would hold his opener in his hand. Siki pressed his second, or anyone who express a desire to exchange words with him. Things went along well for the pumps. Siki kept the cash customers in a constant uprear of laughter. Along about the seventh, the act began tolk them, am they cried in a loud voice to the reference to halt the comic opera style of pulsating. Evolution Time and again Siki would hold his opponent and hit him, then push him spinning away, laughing with a strange toy. He would play with a strange toy. He acted as though he thought rules were made only to be broken. Referee Griffen, well aware of the African to abandon the clown stuff and stick to straight fighting. His pleas failed to discourage Siki, who seemed on pleasure bent, and Siki continued to wear the African to abandon the clown stuff and stick to straight fighting.

His pleas failed to discourage Siki, who seemed on pleasure bent, and Siki continued to wear the African to abandon the clown stuff and stick to straight fighting. In the fiashes when Siki did fight, he made the Bronx battler look extremely hard. Silvani could not land safely on his clowning rift, and almost as a complication as the Siki stuff. Purse Field While the bout was on Ski gave in African interoperation of the choreology, and the bummy bug, but little did he ever would pack any molecule house. The Boxing Commission, totally void of a sense of humor held the money until they decided whether the vaudeville club, or the ring is better. The boxing club, and scaled 170 pounds, and Silvant at 172 pounds. Almost A Draw The six round event, in which Paul Fargo, white, of Yonkers, and Claude Edmonson, a搬 away from Hot Springs, slashed away, at great other was the stellar affair of the evening. More won by a hair breadth verdict. Fargo kept his left busy, but Edmonson retaliated with a shower of mighty rights. To this writer, a draw would have been a better verdict.

The defense pushed over two runs. The third and final Harris tally came over in the eighth the result of Jackson's two home runs and second base and Shackleford's singles.

Johnson may stay in the A State uniform before the season is over. In his drive for new material for the Sox, Charlie Spedden is expectant of a return. He will play an offer to go to Baltimore. "Scrapy" started the season with the Sox, but quit, and went to New York. Spedden is the only team in the satisfactory financial agreement with the Sox owners. In the final drive, pennant-ward, Spedden is scouring the country for players to strengthen. As Baltimore is Brown's home, it is more than likely he will accept the latest offer. He is an all-round player, and he is the best basketball players, being a member of the Baltimore Scholastics. "Scrapy" is a fast fielder, a good hitter, and is always popular with the Sox. He will add his per cent to the Sox indied. 0 BUCKEYES, 3: OCEAN CITY, 2 Philadelphia, Pa.—The Philadelphia Clubs last Friday on the grounds of Clint's house.

Stewart Davis, Attorney For Dr. White, files Formal Complaint Action on complaints filed in the office of Police Commissioner, Charles D. Galthier, must begin action until his return from his vacation, Chief Inspector Henry told the Afro-American Friday. This statement was given in reply to an inquiry as to whether a hearing would be given a specific bill of complaint, filed by J. Stewart Tavis, attorney for Dr. James A. White, who was accused and arrested on Madison avenue, in his arraignment on Monday night of last week, in company with a woman whom Tavis had a Frank Phiha thought was white. The officer put Bashlight face of Miss Myrle Phillips of Philadelphia, whom the client was escorting from a social gathering, and called Dr. White "a smart nigger" when he protested. Dr. White was seated at the wheel of the car, and the young woman in the rear seat when the officer jumped on the running board. The car stopped on the front of the house, and Miss Phillips was stopping with friends. "Liaha arrested both and took them to the station house. Dr. White was fired $5 for being "disorderly," and Miss Phillips freed. Magistrate Robhole is reported on saying policemen have the right to determine whether autolists are white or colored. The Complaint Reads in Part: "It is admitted that as Commissioner of Police, the rulings and acts of the police, the provisions of your authority, Hence, we have no complaint to submit you on that written the Governor, requesting a remission of the fine and attaching a copy of this complaint as our ground for the other reason that it is committed that there is nothing in the statutes nor decisions of Maryland, that gives to an officer the other reason than that of the officer's suspicions of his companion's race. This complaint is not detained in the least by any desire on the part of Dr. White or counsel to embarrass either you or ourselves by raising any answer to the question that he was colored and, of course, Dr. White is colored. Yet the fact remains that if officers are arrested, citizen whose fond compunctions may be fair, there are thousands of Negro gentlemen, who would accompany such ladies at "The petitioner, Dr. White, is a gentleman of the finest type, who has been a resident of the city for several years, during which time he has creditably practiced the profession of dentistry. He is married and is essential to the care of his children, who have been arrested at any time in his life prior to Monday, August 3, 2012. He is unusually mild mannered and intelligent citizen in the full sense of the word. The colored citizens and friends of the city and the lady. In question, are righteously indignant of the treatment accorded Dr. White and the lady. They resent the presumption under which some officers labor, that a colored citizen, regardless of a respectability, is a criminal, murderer, or preacher that he is. In this case it appears that Dr. White's respectability and intellgence merely served to further license Officer "My client, myself and those of my race whom, I am proud to carry the responsibility of your position. We fully realize that unless you are advised by means of such complaints this, that we can not expect you to be fully informed of the every infraction on the part of officers under your command. "We wish to further state that we are also concerned that you can rely upon the unqualified cooperation of all the citizens of this City, the protection that we expect of you will be lacking. It is not the intention of the petitioner nor counsel to have this complaint construed as against the officers city or the Northwestern District. "WHEREFORE the complaint, Dr. James A. White, your institute an investigation of the facts as alleged in this complaint and grant unto the complainant a hearing at which time he may offer evidence to the court herein." Magistrate Robleder, now sitting in the Northwestern District in the absence of Magistrate Paul Johannson, told a reporter on Friday, "So she assessed the truth. White was because 'he talked too much and mentioned his influence.'" "Is there anything in the statute book that would make it an infringement of the law for a colored man to ride a white woman in his car?" "There is not." "admitted Magistrate Robleder. 'While there is no law against it, the act is so unusual that it created an excitement that itself is a disturbance." Magistrate Robleder frankly admitted he thought the officer within his rights in ascertaining whether the woman in the car was white or colored. "If Dr. White had not talked as he did he would not have gotten into trouble," he stated. WATCH THIS SPACE for the Announcement of Grand Fall Opening of the S. J. EDWARDS TAILORING CO. 641 N.

The Afro-American—South Biggest and Best Weekly HEALTH DEPARTMENT WARNS OF RABIES HEALTH DEPARTMENT WARNS OF RABIES More Than 300 Cases Have Been Treated Here This Year CURE AND TREATMENT OF CASES EXPLAINED Pasteur Cure Only Effective And Safe Remedy Says Dr. Stokes In view of the hot weather which is highly conducive to the development of rabies and the fact that several cases have already come to the attention of the Health Services Director of the Bureau of Bacteriology, issues a warning to the general public. To date, 332 cases of persons have been treated by the State Department of Health this summer in city the domestic pets are fondled, handled and even allowed to play with more babies. It is far from unusual to see the small dogs sleeping on the couches and beds occupied at the same time by human beings are dangled, practices and should be discouraged, particularly in the "dog Months." Symptoms Of Disease There are two varieties of rabies: (1) The animal may be possessed of furious wolves, sitting at other animals, swallowing a liver with difficulty, later becoming paralyzed, followed by death. (2) It may suffer from what is known as "dumb rabies", often becoming very quiet, seeking a secluded spot and later dying with convulsions and paralysis. It is very important to consult the rabbit parma parties, if any, of any animal bitten by a dog, especially if the dog shows any sign just described. What To Do Anyone owning a dog should, in the first place, comply with the law and obtain a license. In order to prevent the spread of rabies the dog should be either muzzled or a leash used when interacting with other dogs. If the dog is being attacked by other dogs, or itself biting other animals, Rabies will only develop if the animal is bitten by another suffering from the disease. Dogs and cats frequently cats, are the greatest sufferers from hydrophobia, and if an animal is bitten by another dog, the dog should be conflated so that it cannot bite persons or animals. The State department of Health should be notified and they will send an inspector to keep the animal under observation, notifying the owner of rabies if developed. The cause of rabies is present in the saliva of a rabid animal and the disease only develops when a mad dog bites, scratches, or in any way brings the saliva in contact with the skin of other dogs or persons. A mad dog, however, can be infections and give the diseases to human beings for about five days before the dog develops any symptoms, therefore any animal that appears normal should consult the family physician to the Emperor Justinian of Health, and if treatment is advised, always take it. Rabies was described by Aristotle 2,600 years ago. Celsus, famous Greek Physician, gave a description of the disease first century A.D. Antis, sixth century A.D. Aristotle, sixth century A.D. Emperor Justinian made extensive medical writing or the subject. There is absolutely no merit in the "mad stones" formerly regarded as cure for the disease. These stones were calculi passed from the intestinal tracts of lower animals to the skin and were then drawn the poison from the wound. No section of the earth is free from rabies, though it is rare in thinly settled districts. The so-called "Pasteur Treatment." is almost absolute preventive of rabies if begin promptly after the bite. There no cure for the disease after it has been developed and it is always fatal. The pasturer treatment is given by the State of etahla Department to all cases in which it is considered necessary and is administered by Dr. C. W. G.

"Negro journalism has opened up a field of usefulness for the aspiring young men. The news found in it contains very little of what is known as yellow journalism. The news can well be counted as authentic and true, which is more than can be said of numbers of our white contemporaries. Taken on altogether, the Negro newspaper has been a great help to the race in the past and present evidence gives to prove that in the future greater good will be accomplished." Brutality Of The Police Brutality Of The Police A more is under way in several cases to tiltish the laws curbing the use of brutal methods by police to extort confessions from prisoners. Police departments universally disguise such methods, but all news papersmen who have been about a law have seen too much of it to doubt that the practice is common, both in city and village. Of course, if you believe that a prisoner is beyond the pale, and cannot not be accorded decent or human treatment, the law won't appeal to you. It probably will not appeal to officers, more interested in getting a confession than in seeing justice done. But otherwise, such laws seem pretty well grounded in the principles of humanity and Christianity. There is, to put it bldly, no excuse for third degree methods anywhere, if police cannot build up a strong case against a man without bringing him into semi-consciousness they have no business in their life. Second in importance to this is the need of a crusade against the policeman who gives false testimony in order to convict someone he has arrested. Once a prisoner has been arrested, he must be convicted at any cost, even if the policeman has to lie to do it. Police make errors like other humans. But when that error is shown them, instead of an apology, we get the police lie, and every effort is made to convict the prisoners if not on the charge on which he was arrested then on some other charge. The late Judge Phelps of the Baltimore City Courts once sent for the manslaughter of police, and declared that something had to be done for policemen were the biggest lars appearing in his court. "I would not believe a one of them if he swore or a snack of Bibles, declared the judge. The police department is no place for the grafter, the rough neck, the liar and the bully. Police Commissioner Gaither, and Governor Ritchie will investigate charges against John Picha, white policeman, who insulted and arrested 4r. James A. White and a companion because he thought the young woman white. Dr. White declared after the trial in the office trial the policeman lied without conscience. Baltimore is tired of complaints against policemen. Picha has been complained of before. This is his strong offense. If found guilty him public opinion demands his dismiss from the force. If his superiors are in fault because of their instructions to him, now a good time to find him, he was a public servant who did who gave them to him. The Greatest The Chicago Tribune carries matters at its mustard the slogan "The New York Times boasts of publishing 'all the news that is, it fits.'" Other metropolitan newspapers run to slogans, but all make their news with more or less justice, and have their following. But they all of these newspapers, as they come out, are a staff of clerks, who extracts of what they think interest the President. But the irreverent shears are covered from the President's home page. That is the most important newspaper that comes to the White House in the back with newspapers from the world, and the Press wants no extracts from it. He it all.

Not so dead, however, but that the lull has given an opportunity for the news to leak out why President Coolidge has turned such a cold shoulder to those members of the "Black Cabinet" who helped put him in office. Honorable Perry Howard, assistant to the Attorney General and National Committeeman from Mississippi, and Henry Lincoln Johnson, National Committeeman from Georgia and things in their own hands before the last election. Instead of heading the campaign themselves they selected as straw man thru whom they could act the Honorable Wm. H. Matthews, an attorney from the President's own state. There resulted committees and banners to which the press and the politicians were hidden. There were headquarters in Washington, New York and Chicago. They called on Senator Rutler, the President's campaign manager for money for all conceivable purposes and every time the new senator from Massa, chusets took his fountain pen out and contributed the necessary coin to grease the wheel. More was spent to elect Coolidge than in any campaign since General Wood and Governor Lowden battled for the Republican presidential nomination. Mr. Matthews is a good lawyer. He must be or he would never have been on the staff of Mr. Marcus Garvey, but he knew as much about managing a campaign as his former boss knew about running a steamship line. Senator Butler and President Coulledge came out of the campaign elected and cognizant of the fact that the "Black Cabinet" had put over a lemon on them. When the Honorable Matthews came to seventeen points Senator Butler and the President tuturned a cold shoulder. They had hired a group of men to do a certain work. The work required him to push, push, push off and the obligation ended. No one doubts this to be the correct version of affairs in Washington, else who does Mr. Henry Lincoln say he does. He says the day instead of resisting his buns in a government armchair and drawing a monthly stipend except that the President's shoulder is cold despite the warm weather. He says the president's England drawl "link is too old." And the Honorable Mr. Matthews who directed the race G. O. P. co-chair in the race, and who cannot press his seventeen points on President Coolidge and Senator Butler, for like Bert Wilt, Iain's Elder Emmett, for like John McCain, the Honorable Matty is not too old, but he cannot, land one of "teeny, weeny, job." in honorable G. O. P. Campaigners had not been bought and paid for, we might be able to get Mr. Coolidge to look at the Boston good timers save a banquet to Mr. Matthews last week right around the corner from Senator Butler and the campaign sends Mr. Matthews "his resentment." In Missouri "Came to his death by hungling at the hands of persons unknown" was the excuses written by Missouri's ex-Excuse Missouri this week after investigating the lynching of William Walker by a mob of some two hundred persons, the souls of Excuse Missouri's souls health resort of some 4000 souls 350 of them colored near Kansas City. Everybody in town knows everybody else. The coroner, for the lynching, asked the ring leader in the mob which rushed the jail. The chief of police and his deputies could supply the names of dozens of others who assailed him. From scores of photographs made of the occurrence, these officials could with little help identify the majority of persons who helped in the outrage. IF THIRY WANDED TO. That is the rub. They do not want to. They are accessories to the fact. They allowed the mob to form without using every means at their command to disperse it, and afterwards they hide behind the old suspects, the persons are to unknown. The photograph published on the front page of the AFRO-AMERI-CAN is the best evidence of subterfuge on the parachute. Springer books like stitches their heads in the sand and plink no one can see them. Education Many parents who are putting their young people through college, are sighing with relief to think that the blizzard may nowhow they can ever get, these young folks educated at the present scale of expense. The costs involved in college training are must be well paid. Commonly, board and rooms are not very high, because the buildings were largely given by generous benefaction. As time goes on more young people will have to earn a good part of the money for education. It is becoming a big problem and in which a good part of them can do this.

JONES Vacation And Working Girls A Negro Movement Towards Communism One of Baltimore's largest haun- dries are giving its clerical help and dries a lot of help to young pupies. A young woman who has worked in that laundry for several years writes this column to ask why the new working girl in the big house is so happy. President Green of the American Federation of Labor is worried over the prospect of a movement to build up a communist group of colored folk in this country. Perhaps who is so worried as it is some of the coercive writings that have managed to steer the course of the labor movement in the United States under the late Samuel Gompers. MARK H. HARRIS "Here we are," she says, "working every day from 7:30 A. M. to 5:00 P. M. over business, much for us to twelve weeks per week." We are expected to go the year round, while the girls in the office who sit and have lighter work and shorter They fear that in the meeting which is being organized, we meet in China. October 25 that Negro unions There is an Old Bible verse which says, "unto him that hath shall be given, but unto him that hath not shall be taken that even which he seemeth to have." Women who do the most laborious work generally work the longest hours and get the least pay. That is how we digitate labor. Federation will join with the more radical wing and develop a labor movement whose understanding the temper of Negro labor at the present time is still unknown, and inclusion among them. But whatever fears that really exist have been induced by the Federation itself in being burned among its white members. Laundry girls have no way to protect themselves against the more should make operators conider with the as human beings with the same longings for hours of rest and vexations as the workers for cortex to do their clerical work. Some day, if the operators don't do this of their own accord, it will have to be done through organization and waste. There has never been any desire on the part of Negro laborers to sanction racial lines in labor circles. They are, however, coming to an understanding of the effect of organization and not being able to take their places, as they should, in the white unions, they are being driven into more radical channels. President Green is right when he is linked to Chicago movement is linked up with the international labor movement known as communism. It is not Russian communism which is attracting delegates, but it is The family is hardworking, his children and until prohibition compounded comfort in that little side street. Now, she says her block is like a forgotten section of Hell's Halt Acre. It is into this type of colored street that prohibition booze is doing its worst. Here where the high rents and low wages force the loss competed with the drug strategist. Strangely enough the little corner places which disperse the deadly poison at the corners of these alleys, but the attention of prohibition agents officers of the law. With the Negro worker practically trained from many sources, membership in many crafts and with an American system of industry is certain kinds of labor over a large section of the country, he is an easy prey for any kind of propaganda which offers relief. But every week rough house parties are raided and numerous offenders are taken in and fined. That of course helps the city treasurer and allows for the constant expansion of the government. What Is This Communism? Negro leadership in America has given little concern to the world movement called communism. Colon prejudice, lynchings, disfranchisement and segregation shadow the deeper reaches of economic inequity. But if you want to see how prohibition is working among the weak, or and less protected members of society, the most important alley any night or any Sunday. But throughout the world there is a deep seated movement to emancipate the workers of all races and nations. It has swept a hurricane across Europe and the Russian social government, now passing through its birthplaces, is the first real nation wide practical re A Difference Chicago "Daily Worker" Campbell McCarthy, a Negro, was sentenced to be hanged on the 16th of October after the execution detective. It was a case of self-defense according to the condemned man. The presiding judge refused the Negro a new trial According to the testimony of the Negro—and it was not refuted both men drew their guns at the court. Campbell McCarthy was quicker on the draw. It is essentially a movement to destroy the power of capital as it is constituted today. It is revolutionary and wild and wild eyed dreamers are created and wild eyed dreamers are created. But basically it has a human appeal for any group being ground under the heels of oppression. Just as slavery was a good institution to so slaves so is our system of the group who are able to take the floss share of the world's prosperity, but to the human dogs who must slave in mines and fields and see their families wanting in a world of plenitude. There was no money raised to defend the Negro, and unless a miracle happened, will forfeit his life on the following. It is a significant commentary on the anti-Negro prejudice prevailing among people condemned to suffer the death penalty in Chicago during this year only two Negroes swung at the end of a rope in Cook county in 1962, and we know that all are equal under the law. That is why we have communism and radicalism. That's why we have anarchists and bolsheviks. As long as we have basic human equalities we will live with humans growing to three themselves from wretchedness. Contrast the cases of the convicted Negroes with that of Russel Scott, who was last week in prison and last week. Scott can be hanged now but for the money raised by wealthy people to save his life. Clever counsel from the court, which gave a condemned man the right to a sanity trial before being executed. The plan worked, and the prisoner was asylum in stead of to the gallows. If the American Federation of Labor has something better to offer the American people in Moscow, they need not fear any widespread development of this radicalism among the group. They need and 'in some way the Negro laboring group must cannipulate themselves from their own lack of freedom to work in all crafts; They must have this freedom in the heart of the South as well as in the North. Poor people and particularly poor colored people are not equal under capitalism, they will take considerable records to march to dna a case where a wealthy man has paid the death penalty for murder. Thousands of others have been executed every year without around the sympathies of the bourgeoisie. For even if the laws of the land guaranteed to them every other right; and they were proscribed in work and cheated in the division of product human toll in war are THEY WORLD STILL BE SLAVES. PROFESSOR FUDGE AMOS HOKUM SAYS Fudge Agrees With Afro Critic Citizens of Baltimore, I realize I went far out of bounds when I took up the subject of John Hopkins who is the guide of the destinies of the will, and the cash are out of order is a question which I should lay off. The subject is too heavy for me, and I should not be so presumptuous as to discuss it at all, but because one no one ever mentioned it was the reason I saw fit to elucidate. The subject is too heavy and wise is sufficient. Some of the great colored men of Baltimore -who are mighter than I will take up the question -are the Weighty subjects are not for me, as the AFRO-AMERICAN critic has said. In fact I will not admit that I have any knowledge of a first-class, weekly. His idea is that there should be more Kelly Miller and less Professor Fudge. But more Kelly Miller is what we need, but we also need more people who can appre. clate Kelly Miller. Until that time, Professor Fudge will have his way, that time promise is to be a long time. To Kelly Miller Concedes "Heavy Stuff" Now there are some things about which I am better informed than Kelly Miller or most any other college professor. I know that the amount to much in a way, but in another way they amount to a great deal. Kelly Miller will discuss the heavy subjects, while I will only take up those topics which as use petty but not serious. For instance, Kelly Miller will talk about national politics, education, religion, science and philosophy, to wit, all those things that most people know. As for me, I can only talk of what I know, the current price of bootleg whiskey, the latest procedure in the line of pleasure seeking, who the big part of the people they have to go out of the State to get an assistant superintendent for a "no count" school system, who the people are who think they lead Baltimore's society, when we have none, who are the people of all the chums in this section. Vermin Also Need Attention To put it concretely, Kelly Miller is the outside watchman, whose duty it is to call for the corporal of the guard when he learns the enemy approach to the sheep's clothing. My duty is insignificant. I am on the inside and it is up to me to look out for the local vermilion. I saw a wolf approaching. I would not know what to do, but on the other hand I am equal to the occasion when a social house, a social bed bug or any insect kingdom approaches. My job keeps me infinitely more busy than his because we have all sorts and conditions of "I would be" his way into a place where they do not belong, to contend with: "His job is more important and takes more brain while mine only takes a little." And they say they "is the price of liberty." Will Always Need The Garbage Man The idea is just this: We might have as the president of the United States be president on earth, or as the president of wisdom than Solomon. The secretary of War may be a Napoleon Bonaparte; the attorney general might have a lawyer; the governor might have a stone; the secretary of Agriculture may be able to make ten blades of grass grow where only one grew before, but at the same time you must The idea is every man in his place. The organization must function all day on the line. What we want is team work. Up to the present we have had team work and I hope it will continue. We have had a lot of that in persistence of my duty us garbage man I have found a big cat trying to lift the lid off of a garbage can. This cat was not of the alley variety, but a stray. I have a cat. He must have been hungry. THE WEEKLY NEWS If a woman and a man agree upon a thing without arguing, says Jim Smith there is something wrong with one of them. The softest job in the world is being assistant lineman for a wireless company. My girl is so up-to-date that when she heard about the New Testament she wouldn't even read the Old one any more. Slow moving pictures of movie star divorces are being taken in order that the public can see how it's done. Opportunity knocks but once, but the stock is not so particular. There can be no particular objection to the family skeleton, says Frederick, unless it is permitted to wear a bathing suit. WHEN ADVERTISING DIDN'T PAY A farmer listed his farm with a real estate company. A week later the firm advertised it for sale. They so elaborately described the place that the farmer was pleased to present. Deciding that it was exactly what he wanted, he visited the real estate office, inquiring about it. On consulting the list, the clerk discovered that it was the customer's own farm. When told this the farmer said, "Wal, I don't care to sell at all now." "Tes. when she wasn't looking I kissed her." "Way, did she do?" "Refused to look at me for the rest of the evening." Did you ever hear of an organization called the N. A. A. C. P.? If not I will explain it to you. N. A. A. C. P. means the National Association Colored People. Its headquarters are in New York and its arm is supposed to extend all over the United States of America and sometimes further but by all means it extends to the entire city After the month of August. As I was saying, it extends all over the country. It does a certain amount of begging and in return for the same it is supposed to defend the sons of Ham wherever their liberties are in danger. Its official organ is the Crisis, a monthly magazine, the editor of which is one William E. B. DuBois, who recently had caused to be prisoned for his "mug" along with several illustrious colored men of world wide fame. DuBois Not The Whole Cheese But Mr. DuBois is not all of the N. A. A. C. P. There are several men of note in it. This organization has some field agents who work hard most of the time. As for Mr. DuBois, he only attempts to edit the magazine and fills speaking engagements all over the country for which he is said to collect some "jack" which goes for William Bughart DuBois and not for the association. Among the field agents is James Weldon Johnson, a very smart man who has achieved some fame by his literary efforts. There is also one Walter White, who, aside from being sincere, has been able to get some good results. Then there is Father Robert Bagnall, who, in the language of the street world, he known as a "bull" man, that is to say, one who works the mobs up to a frenzy by his eloquence, then collects the dough. Last, but not least, we have an old friend of ours, Mr. William Pickens, late dean of Morgan College. Dean Pickens is also a "bull" man, but while he is forcible and all that, yet he is not the smooth article the other gentleman are. As a matter of fact, there seems to be a lot of Texas yet left in him. Pickens Aspires For Round World Trip In spite of the Texas in him, Dean Pickens is the man I want to abuse for the next few minutes. If you re-read the article, you will see that appearance appeared along with an article setting forth the fact that he is to be the *Aroo-American* candidate for Madame Tussaud's and that is free to say, any one who wishes can vote for him, so that he will be "cut on this free trip." I called the editor's of the *Aroo-American* attention to the fact that I wanted to be the candidate, over four months ago. I don't want to think I am prejudiced against the dean because he did not select me. As a matter of fact, I really do not want to go now but I just want to be a candidate. There are many reasons why Dean Pickens should not be selected. To begin with, if the National Association of Women in Medicine is to look out for the colored people of America it will be impossible to spare a valuable man like Dean Pickens. He has a family and in spite of the fact he has been living in New York since his departure from here and possibly has formed some and thus, he should stay home. Thirdly, and inst, Dean Pickens is can represent people from Maryland. Fudge Suggests Local Candidates Just as I kicked on the school board sending out of State to get a superintendent for colored schools when plenty of local men were on the march to New York to get a Texas man to represent this great newspaper of the East. Ernest Purvince, Captain Brown, J. Stewart Davis, Dr. Tom Stevens, J. David Foster, Jim Church, Kid Pratt, Kei Langley, Dr. E. Mitten Peck, Ike Dixon or George Watty would all be good selections. I see no reason one should be goof off of the State, but if this is necessary don't bring me Texas. If this won't get it, be it remembered that Pichens once taught in Galileo college. I guess that satirist Darwin was wrong and William Jennings Bryan was right. A Cockeysville, Md. school child in his examination paper says—"A cornettist" is a man who has et corn. "What impressed you most in France?" "I think perhaps it was the French Bands. They played the French Mayonnaise so beautifully." A radio set has to stand for a lot of rough stuff. This thought came from the灵敏 to a grand a few plebs ago.

Kelly Miller Says Why should our schools and Colleges allow periods of vacation more frequently and of longer duration than any other line of pursuit? Look around, in the streets of Baltimore, Washington, Philadelphia, New York and see how they swarm with colored youth in the early and middle teens, candidates for the Devil's workshop These long drawn out summer vacations are but curious survival of a more pious age and generally play havoc with the progress of the child. These be dog days. The old adage runs that every dog has his day. The cats usually rule the night. Every one who can afford it, and many who cannot, reserve August as a month of vacation. Who remains in his customary place during the summer months has to make some form of apology in the fall when the move favored of fortune return, and begin to tell the marvels of their customary life. This reminds me to mention that I called to see my old friend, Judke Hammond, and he marveled by remembering the two years ago he was seriously smitten. He still sits in the shadow of his great affection. But his is the cheer that he always returns to. He never comes off. He looks as well as he did the day he was stricken. His nature is as genial, and his soul as boyant as of yore. The joy of his brilliant career, never thought it necessary nor desirable to leave the city for a summer vacation. He is good enough for him, summer or winter, in season or out of season. One of his bright sayings was to the effect that if the government would guarantee him a permanent seat in the House, he would leave the confines of the District of Columbia. I approve the wisdom of the judge's philosophy, although I am not a lawyer. I have taught in Howard University for thirty-five years. During that time I have never had a vacation. Not that I may not have had a vacation, but I have been compelled to utilize my vacation period to supplement my limited livelihood. I have never had as much as two weeks continuous deprivation. It is a wise philosophy that calls the grapes sour when one cannot reach them. I have never let the grapes sour, and I could shut myself up in my half acre lot, with my garden, and with my books, and with my pets, away cities and tranquilities of summer resorts. Like Judge Terrell, I would consent to be a willing prisoner forever in the District of Columbia. I would not did not call my far afield. During the past quarter of a century, I have roamed far and near away from the home base, but that has not been the case in behalf of the service and duty. This idle dissertation leads me to the reflection upon the philosophy of vacation in general, and the vacation of agriculture, and surely the agricultural life, the Sabbath is a sociological as well as a spiritual necessity. When the workman toils and toils from twilight to twilight, day in and out, he is supposed to find the requisite rest and recreation within the period of the holiday. The seasonal limitations of activity and the shifting conditions of the weather break the continuity of the regular hum drum, thus restoring the workman to his idle. This is especially true of all outdoor employment. But when it comes to indoor employment, the case is quite different. Here the vacation is the seasonal or conditions of weather. Variety is the spice of life in more ways than we often dream of. They that a woman carrers for, they that a woman last several years longer, if his route were occasionally changed. The perpetual burden of his heavy load and the repeated uniformity of routes on the surround of a horse to say nothing of the man. Often Questions Of Fashion And Style Broadly speaking people who following sedentary pursuits, need vacation rather than those who enjoy it. For all such callings, a regular vacation is deemed necessary. President Elliot used to say that a man can do more work in ten months than the element of fashion and style has become involved. All those who would keep up with the Joneses must have a companion, at least must return to his work in the fall with some marvelous exploit to recount by way of travel, pleasure, or at least old world of ours going merrily on. Those who have not the strength and physical stamina for twelve months' sustained endeavor do well in the stated seasons of rest and recreation. But for my single self, I can find all of the rest recreation and recuperation I need within the space My period of effort is diurnal. The prayer: "Give us this day our daily bread and milk for recreation," and now a man of sixty years, and am as sound and vigorous in every physical and intellectual at all, still survives ninety-six. He never knew what a vacation was. After all, the only occupation of work—changing from what one has to do to what one likes to do. School Teachers Have Shortest Hours Why should our schools and colleges allow periods of vacation, more frequent and of longer duration than any other line of pursuit? The ordinary day is three days per week, five days per week, and nine months per year. In addition to this, there are school holidays at Christmas time and Easter, the school teacher is free, less time with the hours in the calendar year. This is less than half of the time exacted of the ordinary workman. Part of this is Should Abolish School Vacations AN s and Colleges allow periods and of longer duration than sets of Baltimore, Washington, and see how they swarm with and middle teens, candidates summer vacations are but cucage and generally play havoc id. due to haphazzard historical reasons, which now have no present meaning. For example, the dismissal of school on Saturday, in the early days, and student to make ready for the sacred duties of the holy Sabbath. This has now become a curious survival of a more ploys by gone Again. It is supposed that the duties of the schools are taxing on the mental energies that a longer period of rest and recreation is required. How much each is true may be determined by the new method of psychological tests. Idle Brain Is Devil's Workshop Our long drawn out school vacations play have, with the progress of the child, who forgets during vacation with much greater facility than he learns during school time. Every teacher will testify that Monday is the poorest school day in the week, and that it requires much review and repeating in the fall to regain what was taught in the spring, and forgotten in the summer. The summer vacation has only one excuse in the city, and that is one of temperature. But in the country the case is or used to be entirely different. When I went to school as a country boy in South Carolina, the school sessions were placed in mild-summer or mild-winter. In the spring, and autumn, the children were supposed to be assisting their parents in planting, cultivating, or harvesting the crops. The great drawback of the summer vacation in the cities is that it fills the streets with half grown bcs, and alas, with girls too, with nothing to occupy their time. In this day of moving pictures and the other numerous enticing methods of evil allurement, the old adage holds with double force: "Satan will find mischief still for idle hands to do." Working Havoc With Negro City Child I wish sometimes that I could complete an essay without mention of the colored race. It would indeed be refreshing and tonic to the mind. But fact is more than fancy: reality is more than speculation. The thoughts of the reader run ahead of the writer. Look around, in the streets of Baltimore, Washington, Philadelphia, New York, and all other cities and centers with a large Negro contingent. See how they swarm with colored youth in the early and middle teens, candidates for the devil's workshop. The schools are closed. They have no regular and stated occupation. Negro educators, most especially should urge the wisdom of extending the school term to cover the calendar year. This principle is now receiving recognition by educators generally. The inauguration of night schools, vacation schools and summer schools are calculated in some measure and degree to meet this crying need. The ideal school hours should run from nine to nine during each week day, and for twelve months in the year. For Twelve Hour School Day The twelve hour school day would meet the occupational situation of a large element of youth who are not in school but are in a numerative occupation. The twelve month school would not only help serve the same purpose, but would keep the vast hord of youth of ten to fifteen years old in wholesome intellectual and moral discipline. The program of instruction could easily be adapted to the requirements of the seasons. The schools are safe prophecy for the early future. The colleges and universities are now recognizing the same principle. The universities are the best of this as in other moveovers. The student may elect any actions of educational reform. The school years is divided into four threes, or more or less, suit his financial necessities, or occupational requirements. Closed Churches Are Economic Waste There is criticism of the church which 'opens its doors only one day in the week, and only for a few hours on holiday. The economic waste is enormous. And yet our school houses are not open one hour out of ten during the year. But I fear that I have allowed myself a become too serious for the idle dog day season. This release is being indited on Wednesday. Tonight I shall leave for a brief lecture itinerary in North and South Carolina. I will tell something about this trip in my next or in an early release. Although these be dog days, nevertheless they should be redeemed to active service as well as devoted to idle pleasures. Weekly Lessons In English By W. L.

Page Nine EDITED BY AFRO'S Sun Baths Best For Ba Sun Baths Best Medicine For Baby Says Expert Old Sol is a good baby doctor. Let him have a chance at your child! So says Dr. Martha M. Elliot, director of child hygiene of the Children's Bureau, U.S. Department of Labor, urging "more sunlight for babies." Dr. Elliot is directing a demonstration of the control of rickets in New Haven, O'conn. In which the Children's Bureau and the Pediatric department of the Yale school of medicine, are cooperating. This demonstration has proven again the power of the sun in preventing and curing the campaign for better babies and healthier children," says Dr. Elliot, "more stress must be laid upon sunlight. The baby or little child who has been kept out of doors and tanned by the sun is strikingly healthy and vigorous in contrast to the poor child who who kept indoors. "When the sun's rays are analyzed by the physleists, it is found that some of them produce visible light, which can be divided by a prism into the well-known yellow, green, blue, and violet. It is also found that beyond each end of this visible spectrum, there are invisible rays, at the red end, the infra-red rays which produce heat, at the violet end, the ultraviolet rays. It is these ultra-violet rays which have so powerful an effect on living matter, destroying bacteria, healing tuberculosis and rickets. When sunlight shines through window glass, the visible light heats rays in the window, but the ultraviolet rays do not penetrate beyond the glass. "Sun baths in the direct sunlight are the simplest method of giving Why Divorce By Amy Ashwood Garvey Mrs. Marcus Garvey, No. 1.) Special Disclosure Sexual Disillusionment Mrs. Garvey is the first wife of Marcus Garvey, whom she is suing for divorce, on the ground that she murdered another while she wedded to her. Answering Garvey's criticisms recently in a letter to the Afro, she said: "I am being abused by a man who used to call me his 'star of destiny.'" one of the greatest reasons for divorce is failure on the part of married people (the husband in particular) to acquaint themselves with the fundamental principles of sex-life before becoming a member of the most sacred, and yet the most-fitted school of life, the institution of marriage. This question of sex, this burning question is like a cankerworm, feeding at the heart of most women ever since the first Eve was awakened to the fact that her organs could function. What is it that causes a peasant, or servant to invade the most sacred shrine of the oldest nobility in Europe? What is it that causes a woman in one brief moment to forget the life-long achievements of a husband, backed up by centuries of success, to be so incapable that causes one to look into space and then sink one's most sacred thoughts in a long drawn out sigh? Ah! you may say it is animal passion—these is something higher, nobler, loftier than the mere desire for mating. In most instances, however, such expressions generally entomate from the outside, but look forward for nothing but—sweet decay. It is generally when the male of the species has long overspent his surplus that he endeavors to speak of this higher self. But if you would hear the simple reply to the questions asked above, it is simply, they were mated. She found in her mate in one moment of nauturous bliss—her counter Complete satisfaction is of far more importance to the female than the male.

Page Ten Magazine S WOMAN EDITOR—EVERY READER ON Medicine aby Says Expert the baby enough ultra-violet light sunbaths should begin when the baby is about three or four weeks old. On this first day the baby's hands should be exposed to the direct sun for a few minutes on the skin. A slight reddening of the skin each day will gradually tan the baby. Unless the baby is accustomed to the sunlight from exposure indoors, the first sun bath should be for 10 or 15 minutes only. Each day thereafter the exposure to the sun should be increased from 3 to 6 minutes. After that the sun one hour in the morning and one hour in the afternoon. Every few days the amount of body surface exposed should also be increased, at first slowly, but as the spring days grow warmer, more rapidly. After the face and hands have become accustomed to the sunlight, the sleeves may be rolled up one at a time, and the arms exposed increasing daily. Very soon the stockings may be taken off one at a time for a few minutes each. Gradually the baby becomes accustomed to the sun bath, and by the middle of May, or the first of June, sun baths can be given to the whole body. The heat of July and August, care must be taken to give the sun baths in the early morning before ten o'clock, or in the afternoon after three o'clock. The head should be protected when the baby is in the heat between 10 and 3 o'clock.

Wives would be far happier if this force called the marriage vow, was recinded, and the beautiful prayer, "Lead Us Not Into Tempition" written in its place. They would be happier if they knew that poor men were by nature temperamental polygamous...imals. They would little if they knew that marriage to some men meant a house-keeper (with the privilege of being near the master). They would worry less if they realized that all the moral codes and standards were written not for men to observe, but for women to obey. But—today, history can record a vast army of women, fighting for the equality of their sex, fighting against slavery, fighting against promiscuous intimacies, fighting against the procreation of miscellies and monstroctiles. I have discussed this question with women of every nationality ever since I threw in my lot with the student of life, five years ago, in a serious study of sexual research, and all agree that were men in devote a more serious study to the form of approach before mating, were they at least mindful of the fact that the woman occupies the position of the receptical (and can only receive what they give), perceptibly giving, perhaps they would sometime give of their best. If they would stop to give to their helpmate their companionship, coupled with sound understanding, and pay less attention to building empires, and the mechanism of a bicycle, then perhaps there would be fewer divorces. Avoid Use Of Lye Do not use lye to clear clogged drains. Boiling water and washing soda are better than vinegar to combine with the grease in a hard soap. While soda will cut right thru the grease, vinegar will cut three tablespoonfuls of soda at the outlet and wash down with boiling water. This will keep the drain pipes beautiful and clear and they are not likely to clog. Where Your Word Has Value! Furniture Hub Co.

But you cannot turn a wheel. That a black man isn't in it. You may say you are against him. But before you turn around Some sharp black man will be in it. You may build your Chinese Wall. You may plan for every minute. But with all your cunning schemes Some few black men will be in it. You may form your Lily White. You may kill your bear and skin it. But when the ple is passed around to Some shrewd black man will be in it. Be it high or be it low. From the cock-pit to the Senate. There is not a place on earth below that a black man is not in it. So, my friend, first stop your folly, draw the thought out now and pen it. Led intends for all to jolly. So the black man must be in it.

LOVE ADVICE TO DORA Dear Aunt Dilise:— I am 15 years of age and am madly in love with a young man of 24 or 25 years, and I am not supposed to think there was no one like me. Since that time, last summer, there has been a vacant period through which now he urdly speaks and in fact he won't if he sees any way to escape. I have written him and told him he will never be able to not seem to have any confidence in me whatever. When I am talking to him he will tell me that he is bright, and then he will shift off the subject to something entirely different. As it is now, I have never been incomprehensible this way and I am terribly lonely, but I have no desire for anyone but him. I worries me sometimes, I forget everything else and when I know anything I am crying out loud. He almost starts me crying. He takes him next to my God and simply cannies him give him up. There is not an hour in the day he isn't mentioned by me to the family and I don't have any time minutes, so also advise me on what steps to take as I have tried all I know. WORRIED DORA. Dear Dora: No wonder the young man does not take you seriously. He is far too old for you. You couldn't possibly have the same experience and be interested in the things. Seek the companionship of young people your own age, and forget your first friend. You can find our was not worth your affections after all—AUNT DILSEY. MME.

System The greatest novel of the year "Veiled Aristocrats" By Gertrude Sanborn DECIDERLY ORIGINAL FULL OF NIVID CHARACTERS APPEALING TO THE NOBLEST QUALITY OF HEART AND SOUL. Her book is a strongly put protest against the color prejudice and the unfairness with which Americans treat the Negro section of the ment of the subject is original; some will say that it is overdone, but she has nevertheless made a compelling Boston Globe, January 15, 1924. The story moves at the pace desired in light upon many phases of the Negro character. It challenges controversy and seems destined to be the center of a lively discussion. The *Wakefield Journal*, December 28, 1923. We think that the book is significant to it. It emphasizes the art side of Negro life which is not generally used and throughout the book the author gives facts relied upon by the generality known. The Christian Recorder, January 12, 1924.

He laid his brush on a paper that he thoughtfully ascertained was one from the night before. He entered the music room. "Whatever it was you were playing made me forget everything" Rod said. Paris—my old friends, the dear studio days—and life—oh, life that was so different from this." "If you love that sort of thing, this—and Rod waved toward the heavy luxury, 'must be a fearful bore.' It is, said Natalie, 'the most beautiful day I ever seen this side of the ocean. Will you please stay to lunch'". I hated it. I came away. I am studying hard so that I may some day have freedom from the littleness of commonplace things. I live on South Park Ave.—" Rod leaned forward. He held his breath, then he finished, "with a cooled face." I am happy. Does all this shock you? "I knew splendid Negroes abroad." Then I can talk to you about Mejeldel. I have known. He saved me from myself. "McClelan!' it sounds haughty." There is nothing haughty about dull things there is a label—but yes, perhaps I would like to hit yours. Rod enlightened her. "Rod!—Rod!—a staff, a stock-shirt, so Rod, and by aid your name climb in your friendship." "You have here here." He caught her and laid it across the rough bark of his shirt where his heart was swerving her loveliness. "You are here—" he tossed his head, in my muscles and my smile. His friend will stimulate my mind and drive my body—so—so. Rod whirled away over the "In—in these?" Rod pointed to his working clothes. "He—ho!" laughed Natalie, "I've had smart clothes to lunchroom every day for a week, with very little inside them, so I can serve one on an artist—you are that—the mirror told the story." "Thank you for the invitation and for the opinion," said Rod. "I'll put the brush back in the paill. He returned up the stairway to perform a mysterious rite that had to do with scraping the brush and then imminging in the paint of turpentine. Natalie ordered lunchroom. "I'm having a guest, Castle. If it's warm enough in the conservatory you may set the small table there—over in the east end, near the chrysanthemums." "It be young Mr. West, Miss." I recollect as how he doesn't take tea, nor look very favorable on scallops. I'll have to ask cook to prepare some other dish for him, Miss." "No, Castle, it will not be Mr. West. It will be the young man who is doing some painting somewhere upstairs." "Hi don't understand. Miss. You wish the painter person's luncheon to be served in the conservatory? Where shall I serve yours?" "Why, in the same place, of course." Castle looked severely at Natalie. "These Hamericans," he muttered, have no sense of nothink. How can I uphold myself properly, such hectares of creature!" It was a pleasant luncheon as many unexpected things are pleasant. On the pathways of this world one sometimes meets kindred souls. Such meetings are high peaks set against the skies of time. The day upon which one finds another person who sees sea green as sea green; who holds symphonies of color on canvas; who possesses the gossamer threads of magic that cluster and twirl; and twine over trees and chimneys—that day life is very good. "Of course you are not really just a plain everyday painter?" Natalie questioned. "Just that, but with my paintist I carry a cargo of dreams." "Oh, everything that moves. My creed is, motion is life. Life's emotion without motion leads to madness and despair." "Surely you have not experienced those two things." "I have grimaced at them in the dark." "They weren't with you when I saw you in the mirror. You seemed all joy." "I was. Remember that I too saw something in the mirror, you saw things like that. I shall expect you of having a gold-headed cane in the hallway. Let's be honest." "I was nonest. I can be still more so. I can say that the mirror showed me a vision more lovely than any my own poor imagination could ever furnish. "Muffins?" "Castle interrupted in a fangling one." "Ahem—she?" "Let play a game," said Natalie, with her eager sunny smile. She looked like a little girl whimsically waiting for the sweet surprises of make-believe. "This—let's agree to say what we really think. You know people scold say the thing that is really in their minds. For instance, if I say to you, "I want you to day paint," that barely indicates my real thought. Behind it I say my having thought it certain things while you danced to my music—your having heard those things—your answer by telepathy—I saw your hopes, dreams, mirrors—you saw me as a person who could reach into your dreams, sit in your garden of thoughts and not disturb their pretty arrangement. When we spoke about clothes and lunchwe really thought of quite different things—you see eyes, and voices—wanted to find and match in a mosaic pattern the small treasures of thought each had found in life. We wanted hours to talk and talk and talk. These are only a few of the things we thought. When I said, "Good morning, you answered, "I hardly really" Roda's eyes had widened. He was engulfed in a tingling sensation. So might he have felt if warm fingers had threaded a way into the coolness of his soul and heated it as a person heats the bulb of a thermometer till the fluid rises mingling with the coolness of sense of nearness in his intimacy with McClellan, but that feeling was not so intense as this new one. "I-I—don't know your name. I should like to call you by it." "Well then—Natalie." "Natalie—Natalie—it is like you—names do not always suit the persons who best see them, but they are delicate and full of light. It has a lifting sound—you see, I am playing the game!" "We know more of each other than some stodgy persons know in a lifetime. Is it ridiculous?" "It is delicious." "More—more—more—ahm—sir" Castle having veered through the doorway to catch Rods' last word, proferred the ometel with herbs. Rod smiled ruggishly at Natalie. "You are so literal, aren't you, Castle?" she teased. "I try to serve promptly. Miss. If I appear liberal it is only because of what you furnishes and cook prepares." Castile withdrew. Natalie produced some cigarettes. Presently they surrendered into the great quiet library and found comfortable corners in the deep divan that stood before the long windows. "Tell me about yourself," Natalie "I lived in a little country town "What shall it be?" CREAM C "Ve Aristotle BY GERTRU A Story of I hated it. I came away. I am studying hard so that I may some day have freedom from the littleness of commonplace things. I live on South Park Ave.—" Rod leaned forward. He held his breath, then he finished, "with a colored family." "Among the Negroes, I like them, I have many friends, all black. I am making progress in my art. I am happy. Does all this shock you?" "I knew splendid Negroes abroad." "Then I can talk to you about Metzellan—the finest man I have ever known. He saved me from myself. He saved me with angel with wings." "There is nothing laughty about Carr. He is gentle and kind and a great artist." "He is recognized? He is famous?" Rod smiled sadly. He spread his arms in a deprecatory motion. "The men who might give him his place are mad, and with colorphobia, they bite him again and again—they shun him, scorn him, ignore him. They lose less and debilitating emotions—his mind is constantly attending sad burials of greater thoughts." "Iigh! You mean people here in this country are so—oh, shall I say it?—splaint that they can see only the outstretched "That is it! The whole world is grimming at us." "Your Lincoln—my Lincoln, freed the bodies of the slaves, but their souls are still in bondage." "The freedom is not so much a gift as it is a struggle. Only recently has the problem been approached in an intellectual way. People have flown into hysteria over a matter that calls for the deepest and calmest thought and reflection." "There is a number of morocco bound volumes that were piled in easy abandon on a small table." "There is a poem here, I read it just yesterday—the subject of it seemed right now, it is vital—because of a friend. Oh, there it is, shall I read it to you?" Men should be judged not by theelin tint of skin. The Gods, they serve, the Vintage that they drink. that they think. Nor be the way they fight, or love, or sin. But by the quality of thoughts they think." "May I copy the poem?" "You may have the book." Natalie closed the little volumn and shipped it into foods' hand. "You are kind. Will you be a little kinder still?" "Now—what can you want?" Natalie say, and placed sentences were frequently foreign. How dare rejuniers, almost masculine in their comprehension good will, fascinated rod. "If I am to have the book of verse—there is something of great value I should like to receive with it." "Yes, and that is?" "A word from you on the fly-leaf." Gayly Natalie crossed the room to lay the volume, open, amid the twoyear anniversary. "My friend—my friend." She called to Rod. "It is a catastrophe—we have lunched, we have exchanged confidence—and I know not your name." Rod crossed the room swiftly. He stood above Natelle, smiling down at the tumbled waves of her bronze collar. She looked up at him. One clear spirit divined the clarity of the other. The young palater and the dainty, tender girl swiftly scaled fanning pinnacles and stood soul to soul ship lighted stars and lifted veils. a quirky sphere where comrade- s are hidden.

It is my dream to transfer the love of my life into the theater—there will grow anew and to touch with its witching sweetness those tired ones to whom a theater seat means the only communication with realms of magic. But how can you find such dreams when all day you point walls, walls? "It is all stored up in me, I need to spend hours wandering about in the open, watching roses misting flowers across evening skies; drifting over blue-slate waters under limp sails; pushing among poles green peaces; carrying their secrets; perching my head on plowed ones."

Working out, I got in the kitchen and soon paid by having a tight, bloated feeling after meals. This made me very uncomfortable. I would feel stupid and drowsy, didn't feel like working. I was told it was indigestion. Some one recommended Black-Draught and I took it after meals. I soon could eat anything any time. "I use it for colds and bifidness and it will knock out a cold and carry away the blue better and quicker than any liver medicine I have ever found." Best, too much, or faulty chewing of your food, often causes discomfort after meals. A pinch of Black-Draught, washed down with a swallow of water, will help to bring prompt relief.

It does not matter which kind of disease you have when Sister Harrell prays for you, the crippled, will throw their cures away. Sister Harrell has instantly healed. Sister Harrell has astonished the world by showing how close she is to death. She prays for 100 a day.

This continued until more than half a minute, when the church was in an uproar. Here women and some men, joined in the shouting. Soon two young men caught within the motion fell out, and began to talk in the unknown tongue. The singing continued, growing more intense and more animated, before to howl and groan like men does.

E. Hatcher For quite a while the Jasper sensation had grown acute in Richmond. Beginning as a freak, he bloomed into a man, and he had become the private home. It was a penicissus for the curious a juice apple for the hard-driven reporter, a festival for the seerer, and a roaring financial bonanza for the saints of Sixth Mountain Zion. But, as hard as it hurt, it struck me as a ridiculous business at best, the big bubble of an hour, and that if not caught at the exe-sure moment, it would speedily appear, and, in a short time, the spirit was it the sort of thing which did not come my way. Being however, of a prying and curious turn of mind, I determined to take one gimpise at the black elephant of my purpose into working order, but my day came in due course. In The Paners I awoke one morning to find the Saturday papers "festering" with Jasper. He was in the advertisements, the local columns, and the show was to come off the next day. They told once more of his astronomical absurdities, as I believed them to be, and informed me that the exhibition would come off at 3 p. m. at At noon. I dropped into Reengers for my lunch, and a table of hayseed legislators were filling the room with noisy gobblets. I found that some of them had signed a paper asking for the approaching Jasper exhibition, and others of them were twitting and punishing them for both sides of them were going. Three Ladies Later in the day, I got into a West Main Street car and found a seat next to three inches, who curled up behind a wristband of jeans, and they, too, were bargaining to go. At the surfer table in my boarding-house, we sat evening. I found a sickly boy in a boudreau for his health in a swift of excitement about Jasper and his coming eration. My indulgence's fourteenth year old boy had been hit by another bad promised that he should go to Jasper, on the hamper condition that he could get some gentleman. South Carolina Causes N.

Odors Prevail I finally bargained with the eager youngster that I would lay him the next morning on his early escape from the Sunday-school, and we would stroll out into the church, and make a preliminary recompense of general situation. We did not find it quite a well-ordored stroll at all points, particularly as we got in the neighborhood of the church, for we encountered some of which were not in the best condition. Across Broad Street Not long after crossing Broad Street we began to run stout of squids and grazed on the leaves of their chat that was Jasper, and what was coming later on. The neuer, we came to the church, the combat, as the poet told us, and that the combat was multiplied, and the Jasperland element grew. A huge woman hanging on a sidej gate on Clay Street, as the poet told us, and the Jasperland and the sun, and telling to several dumb listens that "she was gwine gwine ter bear de l'ord Lord 'sparred her, an' wuz de laj 'she thing she done on de Legislators I observed also several of those Virginia solons, already mentioned,—those big footed, badly-shaven, and consequential legislators prowling in the neighborhood of the church in the slaughter school and nursery for bachelors. Slyth Not Zion As we meandered the crooked streets, which admitted us to a sight of the great Sight of the Sea, we saw the size of a prodigious expectancy. From yard streets, and alleys had their contingents, and you could not get within enclosure, but you could surprise hints as to John Dearborn and the Solar System. Singing We could hear singing in the church, and we assumed that something in the way of worship was in process. That, however, was not. That just a trump and puffiness, and if Jasper was in it at all he was evidently resting his better forces for the bigger battle at three o'clock in the impending afternoon. Flogging A. C. P.

He has been assured by the Southern education organization that points that he is the greatest and most talented candidate for the office, which he seeks. The enthusiasm shown throughout his entire tour assures him and his followers that on the ground in Richmond, Va., he has chance of success. Church Makes Itself Laughing Stock One of the most grotesque signs featuring a big dark man with heavy New York hair, who is standing through a painful spasmatic cerebrohemian hangs on the door of the First National Baptist Church at 54 East 123rd street, New York City. He is an Alexander Wilbanks, of Washington D.C. an evangelist, known as the man who years the Negro has let meddle in men proclaim to them the Gospel of Jesus. What has happened to the museum has it been found that Christ resorted to any such tactics. It seems ridiculous that a church as large as the one in New York has been allowed to be the laughing stock of all New York, one that is used by white and black men from miles about. The excreting moans and grouns that wait from the building, should it be the laughing stock of men from miles about. Last week a group became so emotional that they began to pray up and down 123rd street, enter the church and passed. The big question is how long a pagan fashion?

He alone is the Master CHURCHES NOTICE S. S. LESSON The sermon for this week was submitted by the Rev. E. J. Bradshaw, pastor of Union Chapel, Blue Ridge Summit, Pa. Next week's service will be given by the Rev, J. E. Davis, pastor of Mt. Nebo A. M. E. Church, Primos George County. "AND HE MUST NEEDS GO THRU SAMARIA" The hostile feelings that existed between Jew and Somerian are well known. Though, when reading this passage, one might thing that cheers passed through Sumaria to shaken his journey, further research assumes that it was an all-false plan, designed since the beginning by God as a rave, a most difficult situation. While pausing at the well Christ spoke to the woman who were the her that Living Water that she might drink and receive the light that her living Water that she might drink and receive the light that overcomes ignorance and all its offspring. He, through this, taught that never should our brother fall low enough to be beneath our notice. By releasing this soul from its fetters Christ gained a welcome that had hitherto been denied a Jew. Men rushed to see this man of whom the woman marvelled, and sought a draught of that living stream. So does the influence of Christ in our lives but out all ignorant differences of race, edgy, and even the world needs Him as never before. The back of Him causes the hardships, the lust of war, the greed of gold, and the cries of perfections. Because of the lack of His divine penetration we fall to see the good in our fellows that is hidden away beneath qualities that are abhorrent. But Christ can remove it all by his unifying force. He can heal and remove all wrong. He alone is the Master Physician. Mt. Hope Baptist Church Holds First Services Mt.

LABOR CONGRESS CALLED "RED" American Federation Head Advises Union Men Against Attending Washington, D. C.-A warning to members of trade unions not to attend the American Negro Labor Congress at Chicago, October 25, was issued today by President Green, white, of the American Federation of Labor. Declaring his organization had not approved the meeting, he asserted that Communists had called it to mislead Negroes into believing "all their grievances will be remedied by overturning the Government of the United States and establishing a Soviet Republic," and "to instill into the lives of that race the most pernicious doctrine—The o Cling "gittering phrases" used in the call for the congress, he said. "Negroes are led to believe that the dark races of the world are in rebellion against the whites, and that all they need to do is to form an American labor congress, and 'all social, political and economic discrimination' will be wiped out. The originators of the congress, from their headquarters in Chicago, he asserted, are conducting a number of communist organizations with interlocking directorates working under the direction of Moscow. A number of union composes of colored labor have been deceived into sending delegates," said Green. "They have been led to believe they will attend a concession of union Negroes. The fact is that the convention was called by men who are not members of trade unions, or, if they are, they do not attend the unions of which they are members. They are expelling Communists as masons as they are found out. "Although there cannot be more than a few hundred Communists in the country, they give an impression, because of their noise-making propaganda, that there are millions. I wish that they were being told in those that they are being led into a trap that will eventually be their undoing." DEATHS Alfred Wilson, 5 mo., 1230 Mankins Allee, Albany, NY.

For ten years it has weathered the storms and vicissitudes of organizations of its kind and is now upon a solid financial foundation. Much credit goes to the men who have guided it to the permanency it has been created. There are, however, hundreds of business men in this city whose cooperation might add to the practical benefits such an organization might bring to the city, who are not now actively aligned with the movement. Some effort should be made to connect these men up for the general good of the community. The officers of the Exchange are looking to the expansion of the work of the organization and the time now ripe for making it a modern business organization and women of this city. There is no reason why it should not function as a city wide organization, studying business conditions, bringing in new enterprises, cementing alignment; looking to bigger business and educating the masses of people to the social and economic importance of business development Suggestions looking to the institution of active departments will be made in a tangible form at its next meeting. Divisions of Extension and Publicity; Real Estate; Research and statistics and Educational plans, are among the innovations being worked out. There has also been wisely suggested that a big trade show be staged in the near future. With the membership of 200 which it has and the growing business life of the city to build upon there is no reason why we should not have one of the best business organizations in this country. Here in Baltimore there are 12,000 colored men and women spending close to $35,000,000 annually. Many small cities with half the population as well are presented by the colored people alone here, maintain numerous banks, hundreds of wholesale and retain stores, big manufacturing plants and other establishments. Do not lack the OPPORTUNITY. We simply lack the PUSH, SPIRIT AND THE ORGANIZATION. Let's go to it. Have Faith In The Efficiency Of The Business Man The failure of one of our leading colored banks this year, and the passing out of the hands of colored people of one of our strongest insurance companies, was somewhat of a calamity. Yet these diligenters in nowise efface the progress of the many colored institutions which are doing a large volume of Business. Instead of the set back which the presidents of the race looked for, business is growing by leaps and bounds. Insurance companies are increasing their debts. Reponses for and near their smaller column business in every field. What's the answer to this steep increase of business among members of our group? It vouchsafes to the race that members of our group have the necessary efficiency to proceed in the business world as other people, and that they those who To cry calamity when one of our institutions falls is an error. White institutions fail, and their failure has a telling effect upon the commercial world. Nevertheless, the failure of a white business institution does not shake the confidence in white presidents. Henry Ford presidents have to have failed four times before he made his "fliver" a success. Today Henry Ford stands out as one of the greatest business men of the world. The Sage says, "If a man profits by his failure, it is good that it falls," the contender. The failure of one of our gigantic concerns. The failure of one institution makes the shrewd business man more cautious in his dealings. This writer in cologue with the president of one of our leading institutions, was told that the reason for the failure of most of our concerns of the past was that the heads paid more attention than they disbelievements. A careful investigation shows that business men are now awakening to the budget system, which will inevitably place them on a sound foundation. This being true, there will be a greater emphasis in business years. The man or institution that only keeps tab on what comes in and fails to keep tab on what goes out is doomed to utter failure. Big concerns use the budget system. When you read of the failure of one of our institutions do not concerning fail, you host of having more business acumen than any other group in the world.
