Permission To Visit English African Possession Refused
London, England—J. A. Rogers, well-known author of from Superman To Man, and Afro Correspondent, who left the United States some months ago in search of excitement is apparently finding it.
A few days ago he was grilled at the famous Scotland Yard under the suspicion that he was an agent in the pay of the Bolshevik government.
It is said that the trouble started at the British Passport Control Office when Rogers on applying for a visa said that he wanted permission to go to Africa. Being a hero and an author along with fact that he made it known that expected to travel extensively, believed to have arused the suspicion that his funds came from
Accordingly instructions were for-
warded to Scotland Yard to investi-
gate Rogers at the address he had

near to London, but went instead
to Penicau, where Rogers had

the finding Rogers there accused
another American of being Rogers.
Humorously
When interviewed Rogers took the quite humorously: "I hope Browne will take the hint," he ordered, "and send me on some money, believe me I can use it. He is a hard country to live in." The trouble, he said, "hegan in New York city with his wife I applied to Sierra Leone in British West Africa. The truth is that I had only the slightest hope of being able to go so far—When I see to France I do hope to visit Ogen and Morocco—but knowing many American Negroes who had asked of going to Africa, and having permitted that he there I thought I would verify the matter and ask." After some questioning, Rogers said that he was told that he could not be given a vice for Africa and that he would have to take up the duties in England in which he only became suspirable and took him into an inner place where he was questioned by a young woman.
Musician Or Communist
"This young woman," says Roges, "evidently wanted to find out whether I was a musician or a Communist but instead of going to the point began to ask me several questions in a negative way as: 'You're not going to join a band?' 'You're going to Glasgow, or India or Austria or Germany?' She also did seem to believe that I a Negro writer, could be travelling on my own. Well, you can hardly blame her for that.
"In applying for a vise one must save an address but knowing no one there, I gave the address of Mr. Wiley, of the team of Scott and Whitley, that had been given to me by my friend, Lawrence Brown, the composer.

Moton Te
Tulsa, Okla.—Negroes in America own property worth $1,800,000,-000 declared Dr. R. R. Moton, president of the National Negro Business League, at its open session Wednesday night.
Ten years ago race insurance companies had assets of three millions, to-day they are worth $7,500,000, with two hundred fifty million of insurance in force. There are 32 banks; the number has increased in years, but the capitalizations has jumped from $2,500,000 to $5,000,000. Every year Negro property increases in value by fifty millions. Prosperity Race (formerly Dr. Mote-naid, own property worth six millions. Prosperity is attested by the $25,000 gifts of Madame C. J. Walker and W. G. Pearson to the Hampton-Tuskegee endowment fund and Kittrell College, respectively, by the declared Negroes have given $2,663,910. Mr. Julius Rosenwald, $2,218,883, and the states themselves $6.

Reds Appeal To Garvey
Riga, Latvia—The Russian peasants' internationale has sent a letterto Marcus Garvey in Atlanta penitentiary assuring him of sympathy in his struggle against "American Negroes" urging his followers among the American Negroes to join the ranks of the peasants' internationale.
race Elks are regarded as brothers.
As an example of the campaign Wilson has made to build up the order is cited his swing around the country visiting every lodge, and to troop 1000 to Tuesday morning he was in his Washington office: Tuesday afternoon, in Baltimore and Tuesday at Midnight, in Richmond, Va., to participate in the intition of the Elks, to join the Elks last all night and brought Elks from every part of the state.
Tuesday brings the first business session of the Elks, and the Women's Auxiliary, and the street parade. From then on until the close Sat., will come a round of gatsby-following the morning business sessions.
Wison Certain of Election
Those close to the inside of EIKON are willing to towager three to one that J. Finley Willyson will be reelected.
The three-to-one prognosis is predicted upon the fact that the southern lodges are solidly lined up for Wilson. This simple truth, coupled with the inevitable breaks which local 'jealousies in certain northern lodges are bound to create, means a solid tier of 700 or more ballots for Wilson out or a total 1,000 votes to be cast. Wilson would still have a majority of 600 solid votes. Wilson's popularity in the south is undeniable. His handling of the southern fraternal complex, whose homely psychology warms up to smiles and chills to frowns, has been the 'Open Sesame' which has been the heart of the southern brothers, who, in solid ranks, are pledged to Wilson for another year.
Wednesday, Wilson addressed the St. Luke's convention in New York, and Thursday was in Perth Amboy, where he turned to Richmond the end of the week to prepare for the convention.

He added:
"You will notice that I have emphasized three elements of conservation in Negro business: one is the saving of some part of all our earnings, the second is the continuance into the second generation of businesses as already established; the third is preparing our young people to manage and direct the large fortunes which come to them from lands of great material resources. It is all very well to talk about expansion and development, but unless we conserve what we already have, we will not get very far.
There is in this country land enough, room enough, democracy enough, room enough, Christianity enough to enable us all, black and white, to live, develop, prosper and serve one another and our great nation, yes, and the spirit of prejudice, selfishness and bitterness, but in the spirit of the Man of Gallice.

Home, Ga. (Special to the Armo-
AMERICAN)—Dr. E. L. Toomer, a physi-
ician here, was arrested for alleged
fraud by the signing of false sick
claims upon the Pilgrim Health and
Life Insurance Company, with home
offices in Augusta.
B. C. Corprew, the district man-
ger of the company, made investigations
when his suspicions were roused by
the appearance of too many sick
claims.
Subsequently State Inspector Isaiah
W. (Billy) Chambers, was ordered here
at once by the general manager.
Chambers went over the books of
C. Brown, an agent, who was beheaded
to have been connected with the fraud,
the claims only appeared on his
debit.
He was discharged by the inspector
unmolested, as it couldn't be proven
directly that he was connected. However,
the evidence shows that the Doctor
could not put the claims through
single-handed. The agent failed
sign claims as paid. But the Doctor
out claims signed per his signature.
Dr. Toomer is under $290 bail. The case will be called in September.

D. C. LEAGUE TO PICKET HOWARD
Washington, D. C.—Howard Welfare League agreed Friday to picket Howard University when it is opened next month and any meeting of the board of trustees. Resignation of President J. Stanley Durkee is demanded.
This action followed a letter written to a local daily paper by Dean Brown, president of the trustees., in reply in part to criticisms of Durkee printed in the Argo:
"The trustees of Howard University and not a group of disaffected people are in control of the university. No official actions are taken except at their will and command. They have confidence in the efficiency and devotion of President Durkee to the interest of the university and are backing him unanimously in his heavy tass."

To him it is the most real of its real things and means present and future independence and comfort:

Washington, D. C., (Afro
Bureau)—With the
approach of the congressional
primary elections, the question
of whether or not the
President is going to give
any recognition to evolved
Republicans by way of appointment or offices requiring confirmation by the Senate is becoming more important.
Two Years In White House
President Coolidge has completed
two full years in the White House.
He first took the oath of officer as
President on August 2, 1923. Since
that date he has been no longer
appointment given to a colored man,
except Walter L. Cohen, comptroller
of customs at New Orleans. But
the fate of his appointment and

There has been no disturbance of the Harding appointees. The Rev Solomon P. Hood, minister to Liberia; the Rev John H. Robert, minister of customs at New York; Robert H. Terrell, judge of the municipal court of the District of Columbia, and Perry W. Howard, special assistant to the Attorney General, have been appointed to one or two changes, however have occurred among the appointees holding offices of lesser importance: John W. Schenck of Boston; Oliver Randiph of New York; former assistant United States attorneys, and Alexander H. Martin of Cleveland, former special assistant to the Attorney General, are no longer connected with James C. Thomas Jr., of New York, and A. Lee leeity of Cincinnati, assistant United States attorneys, are still holding office. There has been one recent appointee, James J. Jones, an American United States attorney at Washington.
Negroes Partly Responsible
The failure of colored Republicans to receive political recognition, however, does not lie entirely with the power. They themselves at at least partly the blame. When vacancies occur, colored Republicans fail to present the names of suitable candidates for appointment, and consequently selections to fill them are made from the list of white persons whose names are presented and appointed by the Service Commission. A good example of this default on the part of colored Republicans may be seen in their present attitude toward the late Senator Medill McCormick, wife of the late Senator Medill McCormick, of Illinois; but not even the Colored Women's Federation of Clubs poses a demand for the places, although two of its members, Mrs. George S. Williams of Savannah, and Mrs. Mary F. Foozos of a roundtable meeting of the Republican National Committee.

Somebody Evidently Stepped On This Brother's Toes Hard
Baltimore people are being held up to ridicule and shame because of a certain group of pulpit graffers who are constant in their large business meetings on the pretext of some great meeting that is to take place, which will not net them a great profit.
National Baptist Convention, which will be held here next month, furnishes these pulpit graffers a large field to work in. No man will question men soliciting funds for large schools, and other institutions of standing. This is far from the purpose of the writer, who protest is that graffing closes, whose paramount object is to seize upon every camp meeting that takes place in some sparsely enclosed field to ply their grafting trade.
These graffers not being content to play upon the ignorance of the prior washer, are now enclosed into the basket when it should be kept for the sustenance of her body, are now causing white business men to look awake upon when they seek a pittance for needy institutions, that deserve all they can get.
If the pulpit grafter is not able to take care of him—this writer suggests that he place his application at Sparrow's Point.
Men are wanted out there to carry
Christ, the Church, the Ministry
and the Church are disgraced by the
black griefs.

DURKEEISM AND HOWARD UNI
LINGTON
By Alumnus
After weeks of silence and seclusion, Dr. Durkee comes out with the startling denial of the oft-repeated statement that he called Dean Miller a "contemptible pupil." Miller has come from the illustrious dean, though his embarrassment, as a result of the pitiful publicity, must be even greater than Dr. Durkee's. As a taxx minister and a teacher, Miller wrote a public letter on a civic matter. A tricolor colored ministers objected to Dean Miller's activity and essayed to curb his pen by appealing to Dr. Durkee's conference which Dean Miller was called a "contemptible pupil."
Decent Ridiculous
The matter was promptly reported, in writing, by Dean Miller himself. Trustees, but the matter was permitted to die a natural death. The incident is so well known in Washington, is widely credited by Dr. Durkee if he had the nerve to use such language to on one occasion ought to have frankness to admit it, even though it is causing him embarrassment now. To make matters worse, he has published similarly a dent by Dean Miller.

Dr. Durkees has recovered his speech to the extent of declaring that he welcomes a Congressional investigation into his allegations. A thorough investigation of Howard University, giving the professors immunity to testify, will be conducted. The liaison quivering with fear, and requesting former professors to testify, will make some startling headlines. The professors are so sour on the administration, so peeved over their oral servitude, and so eager for a change, that they are on record publicly in favor of the Crampton Bill. Even before the trustees took occasion to express an opinion on this bill, Howard University has formal appropriations for Howard University, thus virtually making Howard a government institution. The local press with their approval of the bill.
Look To Government
These professors were generally frank in admitting that they felt that a change to the government would mean the institution of a university were bitterly arraigned by the Board of Trustees, but their approval stands. They are looking to the government for deliverance from DarKEcism, and these professors are guaranteed protection from the "economy" which they will tell a tale of suffering that will bring tears to the eyes of the stoutest. They will picture the terrible conditions at Howard University. Any publication that wants first hand information, can ensify hand phasing a correspondent within the of the Howard University campus.
Faculty Grievances
So deep is the grievance of the faculty against Dr. Durkee, that they have already taken him to the preschool to maintain the rewards his favorite and facilitated his fancied foes. They say that he will not honor their insistence for a definite salary scale that all of the grade may be treated
The professors feel that there should be a scale of pay for full professors, associate professors, assistant professors, and graduate scale not merely for the higher compensation, but also for the teacher's own knowledge of his salary before-hand, from his grade. They ask that, if there are to be variations in a given grade, advancement should be made on his grade automatic.
Salary Whlp
What is there unreasonable in this request of the faculty? Dr. Durkee, however, never asked the faculty so that they may arbitrarily increase salaries. He likes for them to take up the matter of increase in salary with him, according to the college president, under the college professors under date of November 15, 1924, salary increases for the year just end showed. No increase, no increase, no increase, eight received an increase of $5 a month; twenty-eight, $10; one, $15; three, $29; one $30; one, $5; and one, $10. The faculty naturally intensified dissatisfaction.
Durkee Rules Out
Worse than this, it was found that the apportionment was not muddled or basic in experience or attachments. Naturally, this method of doing a few dollars, according to Dr. Durkee's will and pleasure, has humiliated the just dignity and professional roles of these professional workers. The professors do not want Dr. Durkee to have absolute control over their duties. They want a definite scale which they may ascend automatically, provided that their services are satisfactory, and all fair-minded readers of their books. To them a full professor, with three years' longevity, $3,000 and another, with ten years' longevity, $2,500, is glaringly unfair, when both are appointed.
Alumni Secretary
Just to show how Dr. Durkee's methods work, take the case of his so-called Alumni Secretary. For sometime antedating his appointment, Dr. Durkee, Rt. Emory Smith had been especially serviceable to Dr. Durkee in allaying the constantly recurring fears of the alumni. He was one of a large and progressive congregation, an influential member of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, and a speaker of genuine persuasiveness. He was out of many embarrassing situations, and Dr. Durkee's very high regard and Gondness for him are both logical and commendable; but a university president is not a dispenser of advice. Dr. Durkee wards his faithful supporters with positions in the university, it becomes time for some frank person to rominate him that ward politics and these sacred precincts of learning.
Married And Divorced
Mr. Smith's ambition to enter the ancient, honorable, and lucrative practice of law seemed to some a fall in comprehension. As minister, he could unite couples in holy wedlock, with the injunction, "Let no man pun usunder"; and as a lawyer could unite couples to separate couples. The combination did not appeal to some folks—a lawyer minister, or a minister-lawyer, so he stopped. Durkee hitched up a queen sort of job for his loyal supporter, which in political parlance, is called a "plum," or a "plumier." He worked at $375,000 every twelfth month. That the newly appointed "Alumni Secretary" might seem bolder than he really was. Dr. Durkee told him he was for him and gave him a clerk.
"Bitter Pill" For Deans
At the time of all this creation, the dems of the multifarious colleges, for this was long the "useless" and "overlapping" colleges where they were not receiving more than $3,000—possibly as little as $2,500. They can give you the exact figure, for this proved to be a pill which they would think of Dean Miller, whom Dr. Durkee's belated denomination is generous enough to raise above the canine family, after years of sacrifice and deprivations, he has minimized $3,700. Secretary was receiving $3,700.
Real Duties
Now the writer does not presume to know exactly what the real duties of the "Alumni Secretary" are and this is as much as you can. It appears that whenever the alumna visits the university, especially or Commencement Day, and on the occasion of a Lincoln-Howard football game, she "grinds" the "grade" in hand, lets them give his other the "once-over", and passes the word around how Diana Fortune has favored Howard University to make the Hall of Fame some day by making the Hall of Fame some day.
Other Rutics
He certainly has other duties, for occasionally he is seen in the railroad station board of Howard University. None of his discoverable duties, however, seem to approach those of a college dean, but his enquiries outstrip those of the dean. (wag2) Moreover, wag2) renuer, he is permitted to practice law without interruption. The local papers carry notices of local cases; so if the writer is misleading, so if the local papers are responsible.
Holding Two Jobs
Many Cases
There are many more of these cases which will snow that this arbitrary apportionment method is a way to ensure that the winner the president likes or misuses a professor, his feeling ought not to make its way to the payroll. Teachers should be paid for their instruction. Students should be paid for their worth to toward university and not for their worth to one James Stanley Durkee, who by a misuse of the Fortune, map the president.
Henchman Idea
The "benchman" idea of the administration is positively two-representative ideals: the desire to perpetuate an administration is the relic of by-gone days. All that an antique government tenure is a thorough preparation for his job, a religious adherence to the right, and an impartial treatment of all his subordinates. It is childish to talk of "loyalty to President Durkee." Why not loyalty to Howard University, to her professors, to her students? No professor's mind, in any institution, is ever seriously on the president except insofar as theigner ideals of that institution.
Real Presidents
Real presidents never cry for loyalty to themselves, but do insist upon loyalty to the traditions of the president and a professor to be imitative socially, but inseparable pedagogically. It is not necessary for a professor to linger around the president, but be the most services to the institution.
Right Rev. Wrong Pres.
The effect of Dr. Durkee's policy of "reward and punishment" is most injurious to the morale of Howard University. It virtually means that professors must be rewarded, students must be on smiling terms with His Majesty, the Right Reverend (but wrong President), Dr. Durkee. Self-improvement, foreign travel, scholarly contributions, superior teaching—nothing counts but pre-identification of Howard in this plight before.
Doctors Of Philosophy
In some strange way, the Doctors of their scholarly aloofness from the injustices. They are either doomed because of their superior knowledge, compared with that of their chief, or because of their account if their scholarly aloofness from "stand-wagon" practices. Dr. Woodson, Dr. Turner, Dr. Murray, Dr. Ware, Dr. Ware, Dr. Ware, for his views on the Immaculate Conception). Dr. Just, Dr. Locke, Dr. Davies, and Dr. Wester are all doctors, and Dr. Wester is all the knees' treatment of the very type of
professor who must give Howard University the renown she seeks. Dr. Just. The administration has made an announcement of Dr. Just's reappointment to the National Research Council, and has freely added that Howard University is heartily co-operating to encourage Dr. Just. The public has a way of informing the public that Dr. Just, who has been on the anxious seat about his tenure, will not be fired as predicted. In fact, we doubt if Dr. Just can "economize" any more this season.
Dr. Just Reduced
We want the administration to tell the public if Dr. Just's salary received from Howard University, has been paid to him, and if his fellowship pays part of Dr. Just's salary, and Howard University pays part'. Last year, Howard University paid him $100,000, and unfolded report reduces this amount for the ensuing school term. Wesley Coleman
To satisfy a critical public, let Dr. Durkee, grand dispenser of salaries, explain, explaining his decision to have his doctor degree from Harvard, and has served Howard in the most approved scholarly manner for over ten years, is not of interest to the public. In terms of salary, to Howard University, as Professor Frank Coleman, who has just made his way (deservedly to be sure) into professional education, a professor has a standing among educators, a tithe which we vainly would pay the president if could. He has been a professor at several institutes and similar educational assemblies. This surely is one way of attesting, a professor's worth and the university which employs him.
Why?
Why is Dr. Wesley's salary so much lower than Prof. Coleman's. No one advocates the paying of proft in the university, but at the same time a doctor of philosophy is hardly a curse to a university, even if he is not appreciated. It is absolutely necessary to be concrete in these matters, for the truth is that the painful fact is that Dr. Durkee has established an oligarchy in the capital of the greatest democracy of the world. Right under the very shadow of the Dome of Decembrus, the university as a grant, supports, by public funds,
Decides On Trustees
He just about decides the membership of his trustee board, destroys at his own will and pleasure, careers of professors, and does not give the trustee with delicateness caution to pass over the best trained. And meanwhile the trustees are planning a campaign of publicity. If they give publicity to the manner in which they conduct these days, they will choke his existence.

Howard's first great need is internal adjustment, which, if secured through Congress, the vital trouble is unheard of independence of the university, defy the public, whose fund, maintain Howard University. If the trustees owned Howard University, they would farther away from public opinion.
Little Hope For Howard
Until the present kind of organization is wiped out, there is very little hope for Howard. All the in which poor Howard suitors are able to this germ centre.
Trustees
The writers readjust his confidence in the honor and unquestionability of Howard University. This column has persistently made this acknowledgment. In the past and at present trustees have been selected from persons of mere motives, of elusive pride, and unimpractible character.
With one or two exceptions, however, their careers have not brought them into intimate contact with university leaders. It is by no means necessary that trustees of universities should be acquainted with university problems; but it is necessary that they should know enough about such problems to guide them. They ought to be able to take his judgment in all matters purely pedagogical.
Blind Leader
Herlen lies the difficulty at Howard. The trustees cannot be laded by a leader, who, in education matters, is as useful as they are. They need to be the thing given them with the result so well known. Finally, they had to call in an expert to pass word on their president work of seven years, who the apprehension of the trustees reequated Dr. Durkee's administration.
In their desire to back Dr. Durkee to the limit, they were the considerations remain in obscurity. Their sole aim has been to please their president, forgetting that they have a constituency, a faculty, and an alumni, to mention the general public, to
They have not looked for absurdities in his recommendations or contradictions in his various nots. They have never once given credence to his advice, and have often been ascribed to Dr. Durkee. They have never once looked into the reason for the excusus of their professors. Unanimity and confidence in their attitude towards their president. Howard's deliverance from chaos cannot be expected through the integrity of the trustees, of whom he is a member. In spite of the trustees, and the next article will give the only solution.

To lie upon the breast of Mother Earth,
And weel the boating of her mighty

And sense that I am of her soul a part:
To love her, Withship with the dew-kissed

The restless breezes and the crystal

The waking birds and gently laughing

To understand the magic of sunbeams:
This to my heart is sweet tranquility.

Garvey Born 38 Years Ago
11 Years Of Talk For Africa Only
Got Him In Prison
By Amy Ashwood Garvey
Martha G. Garvey (Garvey)
Someone from the island of Jamaica, thirty-eight years ago today, was born a child called Marcus Marvey Garvey, Jr. He grew, he showed marked ability as a leader of his group. He travelled to Central America, but not before he had disguised himself as a slave on the city of seventeen years. During his travels, visiting the House of Commons in London, and listening to the greatest body of defense in the world, he and independent Africa was born in him. Mr. Garvey saw himself as a strong force, hammering his way to independence, and a place in the sun. He then returned to Jamaica, and in the summer of 1914, the British government invited him to the institution, and African Community (imperial) League was founded. After two and a half years of his work, he joined the pointment, he failed. Mr. Booker T. Washington invited him to this country. He died, however, before Mr. Garvey got here, and the destiny of his life was determined.
But Garvey came to America and restarted the U. N. L. A. on American soil, and after a few years of building up the greatest Negro monument in the world, the Ideas and purposes which the association represents, are the same as the one which Garvey should lead but if this is a Universal Negro Movement that envelops the globe, and if Garvey is to direct the destiny of $400 million Negroes of the world, he should be prepared to be questioned by leaders of various groups. Garvey must be big enough to be guided by a cabinet; a cabinet composed of the Negroes of the world this African empire of which he speaks, then he must be converted. By conversion; I do not mean of ideas—I mean a change of heart.
One hundred years hence, Negroes will recognize Marcus Garvey's greatest spiritual leader race has never faced with a practical problem. The Negro problem is purely historical, but he would have established a hospital, he would have left a monument to his race if he had founded an educational system, whereby there could have been a school, a schooling school, a schooling school he would have left a greater monument (for say whatever you can, Africa can never emancipate black women who are educated and raised in a womanhood, until we can look back and view with pride—a different woman takes her stand among the progressive women of the world). African women will yet blood. Negroes concern us at present, will Africa receive him? Garvey will be deported from America after he has served his term, or pardoned. He will probable go
There is London, again he may gratify one of his best desires speaking at the Royal Albert Hall to the silk hatted vampires of the British Isles. But after eleven of those he met, after a moment after Marcus Curvey is imprisoned, and driven from the United States will Africa receive him?—
New York, Aug. 14.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, announced receipt of Missouri white daily newspapers, the Negro Junched at Excelsior Springs (for alleged attempted assault did not confess his guilt as at first alleged but protested his innocence to the very last.

THRU N. Y. STREETS
New York.-The whole of Harlem with its gigantic population stood against the walls of the city, fashionable purrue of the imperial and Manhattan Lodges of Elks. It was one demonstration ever before made her. There were 2,000 marchers in line displaying the sword ever before made by Richmond, where the convention met. There were several bands in line, among them the famed uniforms, purple trimmings and leggings. The women must have been well instructed as they quick step-marches, most of which is somewhat difficult. In fact the women rumbled with the men when marching between the solid walls of humanity through which they passed. It was a farewell jubilee and the men were leaving for Richmond, where they will wedge a bitter fight for their choice of Ruler of America, J. Dolmus Maltese.
Police had to battle with crowds to

'HOLD MY BABY' PLEADS WOMAN IN R. R. STATION
White Mother Thrusts Infant Into Hands Of Pastor, Then Flees
By G. Endom Taylor
New York—The Rev. M. St. John, pilot of the Good Sheep Church in Harlem, was made to live up to the name of his church Friday night while waiting at the Pennsylvania Station for some sisters he expected to arrive from the south. He got a sister all right and one sister, too. The sisters he had expected. In fact the one he got proved to be an elephant on his hands. It was a snow white ceremoniously pushed into his arms and the contrast between the two was striking. Especially so when the white baby insisted on yelling at the crowd, a week end travelers. The Rev. St. John had driven to the station in his car to meet sisters of the same cut who were to arrive. One Greencrest was estimated, would not only increase his own flock, but after securing jobs for them, they would in turn incidently swell the collections on pastor's salary Sun-
But the visions of these collections were knocked into a cocked hat when a white woman suddenly collapsed and pleaded with him to hold her baby girl white she could get in line to buy her ticket. The woman evidently told both in him and the pastor seeing her. At any rate she forgot to come back for the child—and what is more, the baby renewed its screams, something up and discovered the new nurse.
It is not known whether the "sister" from the South ever arrived or no. It is not yet known if the child turned over to a white flame. The pastor was left trying to get him to rememor to him prior to reach to his flock Sunday.

"I Love Health—I Always Enjoyed Health with Glant-Ox. Glant-Ox Keeps Me So!" Says Chef, Noted for His Famous European Dish. BREAK MUS LETTER. Triangle Laboratories, Inc. 1308 Balcorm Ave., N. Y.
Little do people realize the hard work behind hot ranges. And it was this work that wore me down to almost a skeleton. I was such a nervous wreck that made me become babeable to my wife's sight. Tiredness was another evil of inine. Many mornings I got up with severe headaches. Sometimes my back became ever painful. My kidneys gave me no end of trouble. In fact, I was classed as a very sick man till I saw your advertisement in a German paper.
I made up my mind then and there that I wasn't going to experiment with all kinds of medicine. Immediately I had my wife write you for five boxes of Giant-Ox, that shortly after, resulted in me writing you this letter. Thanks to Science—at last it has a tonle for the folks that need it. I follow Giant-Ox and support it.

AFTER CHAMPS CROWN PLAN SOCIAL PROGRAM
National Tennis Championships Start
Next Monday
The eyes of the tennis world are centered on Bordentown, N. J., this coming week, where the American tennis Association's Ninth Annual National Championships, the New Jersey Tennis Association, Inc., who are the hosts to the Nationals this year have no palms to make this the ideal treatment. The entire corps and facilities of the Manual Training and Facilities School of the University of New Jersey are on the disposal of the players and visitors on the week. At no time before has there been such an ideal place for house players in the school dormitories within 1-2 minutes walk of the courts. The elimination of outside housing and daily travel to and from the facility feature a long tenet to make use of 1925 as ideal.
To Defend Crowns
Entries have been received from all the leading players. The Men's, Singles Champion, Tally Holmes, of Washington, D. C., and the Ladies' Singles Champion, Miss Isadora Channelsq of Chicago, Ill., will be on hand to defend their titles. The Doubles Teams of Tally Holmes and Miss T. Channels and Mrs. E. Leonard, of Chicago, and New York, together with Miss Nellie Nicholson and Dr. B. N. Rhetta, of Baltimore, will be the defenders of their crowns in the Men's, Ladies' and Mixed classes respectively.
The New Jersey Association has groomed up several possible contenders, such as Solomon Worde, X. J. State Champion, who has been mentioned by the former National Champion, Edgar G. Brown, as one of the most complete stroke artists in the country.
Miss Alvea Mareellus, X. J. State Ladies' Champion, and such other ladies' champions as Mrs. B. W. Thornhill, Mrs. B. Burnett, Miss Olive Vaughan, K. Worde, Geo. Hill, A. L. Terry, L. McWilson, L. B. Granger, W. E. Brown, A. Souders, W. Wills, and H. W. Cobbs.

FLOWERS ARRESTED IN SOUTHERN TOWN
Famous Fighter And Church
Deacon Hailed Into Court
On Speeding Charge
BOND OF $2,100 REQUIRED
FOR APPEARANCE SEPT.
Fighter Was On His Way To
St. Petersburg To Visit His
Mother When Held
Orlando, Fl., (A.N.P.)—The worst
outrage that has ever been committed
in this State was committed when
"Tiger" Flowers, the "Georgia Tornado,
"was arrested for speeding.
His arrest was not considered an
outrage, but "Tiger" was placed under
$2,100 boud for his appearance here
September 11, which the public thinks
is an outrage.
The speed laws of Florida allow 45 miles an hour on open road, and 25 miles when passing through a city. The law requires that road police arrest drivers who are not arresting officers. "Tiger" passed them when he did not have on his uniform and he simply followed, hoping that he would run across a policeman in uniform. Then he rode alongside "Tiger" the fighter forced his motorcycle to the road edge and caused injuries to him. "Tiger" was later arrested by a policeman in uniform and brought he by a police officer under bond for $2,100, which he paid himself and continued to St. Petersburg, to visit his mother, who lives there. He charged against "Tiger" is "over-speeding and culpable negligence." Legal opinion is that no offense in connection with speeding would justify such a heavy bond, especially since the State are inclined toward liability to tourists on the open road. However, citizens here think it is because of the color of "Tiger's" skin that he was thus dealt with. In the court, the biggest race paper in the State has raised a howl about the arrest.

Jack Johnson Made Sporting Public Like Him
By Edgar G. Brown
My constant ranting may strike the uninitiated as rather titer; but the most casual observer may appreciate the insinption of so called tennis players. They apparently have an intelligent assimilation. I would hate to think it a terrible affliction asiminity. So many are absolutely adamant to correct my typos; doxy; they seem to take pride in being brainless freaks. If I were to think of the humorous but a ways
intelligent assimilation. I would hate to think it a peculiar primitive matriarch. So many are absolutely adamant to correct style and orthodoxy; they seem to take pride in being brash and free. It makes one think of the humorous but always timely saying, "Bull dumb people," and the greatest tennis players in the world exhibiting the best in the modern scientific game right under our very noses. America and what do we profit?
Ted Thompson
A nineteen year old sophomore (Ted Thompson) at one of our accredited schools gets his picture in the Mirror, the much sought after likeness, "Coming Champion." My label would be "Crazy Contribution," and why? There is this youthful college memoir that goes to rar away not in distance Baltimore and beats the No. 13 (thirteen) ranking A. T. A., and local champion and thereby gets his picture taken. Of the folks who say the Riff merits the same result as the enjoyed by the superior French thinker could see that reproduction and understanding for a short philosophy on, "Are we coming or going?" or "Can Savages live on poison gas dropped from airplanes?" There is a young man with every advantage to form a social contact, and unusual economic opportunity that has afforded him great pleasure for study and physical development, actually assimilating to the jungles, perfectly content to pursue the line of least resistance.
It was in the Reno fight between Jeffries and Johnson that I began to learn the basic principles of prosecution by taking a big affair like that successful. An editor in the West has written to ask me if I ever knew of a real grudge fight. Frankly, I never did. I don't believe there ever was one. In the old days it used to be accepted his proper form for a one-fight grudge fight while training. There were stories, probably encouraged by some hoster, about two fighters meeting accidentally while doing their grudge. This was supposed to convince the public that they were after enemies and, consequently, would put up a harder fight. I never believed in it and the more I see of the fight game the less I believe in it. The public likes to look on a fight as a sporting event. I never believed in the manly submission by being friendly to his opponent before and after the fight. That was my theory, and I put it into practice with Jeffries and John-
I used to make a point of going fishing or hunting with Jeffries, and of visiting him at his headquarters, and Jack Johnson's six racing car and ride with him. I never tried to keep anybody from seeing me do it, either. I ought to have heard the bushy-eyed warning me about this.
Why the Fighters Hobnob
"It's had done for you to be seen out with these fighters," they would say. "They would be ground talk. Don't forget you are the promoter and the referee." "Maybe you are right." I told one adviser, "but I'm going out fishing to-morrow. I like to talk to him." Often Jeffries would ask me about Johnson. "What kind of shape is he,
"Fine," I told him. "He'll give you quite a light."
Then Johnson would ask about Jeffries. I would tell him the same thing. I would never try to flatter one of them by telling him he had a clutch. That would be foolish.
In later years I have gone further in this line. I have made special arrangements for the two fighters, and I have fought them fight. The fans like that, and so do the fighters, for that matter.
I took particular points, for instance, to see that Demacy and McCoy were friendly way before their fight. I even arranged for them to play golf together. To me that looks like sporadism. And we were getting ready in Reno there was much whispered talk to the effect that the fight had been fixed. That is all foolishness. Then I am asked about it to this day.
Jeffries had no idea that Johnson would win that fight. If anything, it was Johnson who lacked the confidence. He wasn't so sure. A proof of that was that Johnson won of winning, he insisted on 60 per cent of the purse going to the winner. Johnson felt the same way about it. If there had been any thought of Johnson laying down, they would have split the purse up. He could go and bet that Jim Jeffries thought himself sure of winning.
$66,000 Jeff's Film Profit
In justice to Jeffries, by the way it is a fact that the sudden change of climate from San Francisco to Rio affected him so seriously, he stained clothes diarrhhoea. That made him slow and logy, and he could not entirely eradicate it by training.
A big item in that fight, apparently, was the moving mast at start, was the moving mast at Johnson and Jeffries were to divide their share of this equally. Johnson made a bad mistake of selling
fulled to sleep by the grims of his peers, and oblivious to the constant Grosly satisfaction to be a pupil of forgotten school and a "good" tennis player, he smiles as he makes him play a tennis players discarded in 1857.
The Picture
See this picture of the second ranking A. T. A. player making a backhand drive off the ground and running me now. It is to laugh! The left foot is forward (he is a righthanded player). The grip of his racket is the same as he would use for a forehand drive, but he is coming directly into him. It is impossible to make a fine free arm swing because he is too close to the ball and has reached him is on the forward part of his body, where it should be after he hits the ball on his follow thru. There is some poor unthinking tennis aspirant will see this picture and try to make this same obviously ineffective bake technique in a future? Does it require any particular mental effort or innate capacity to read a tennis text book, to see Mr. Hilden, the World's tennis hero, play a little common horse?
Johnston-Bichardson
Advanced students of the driving game may take a lesson from the Johnston-Kleibers tryout for the spite of Mr. Vincent Kleibers' phenomenal volleying ability and only a cut stroke backhand, even though he possesses a good service and foreground. He is a skilled and confident player put together at the age of twenty-one (21) years he fell in two straight matches once in straight sets before Mr. William Kleibers. He is a famous forehand drive of super-lative speed and uncanny direction at the age of thirty (39) or more, and consistently drives consistently for Johnston, consistently with the exception of the master driver, William T. Tilden II during the last seven years, and men must be our guide posts and our inspiration.
out his entire picture interest for $50,000. Jeffries hold on to his, and each time he him $6500. It Reno, the prestigious arrangements took on a different air. There was all sorts of fun. The newspaper man really had more to write about than if he had stayed in Sun City. He had the primary romance of the Goldfield fight about it. Johnson kept his admirers, and others mused in his racing autobiography. He had an idea that Jack was not sorrowful about racing that car. Don't you believe it. He thought him the greatest racing driver in the world, and would take any sort of chances.
And: That Bull Fiddle
Johnson also knew how to play that big ball fiddle. He was his desi-
gnation for night or afternoon and make the old bulb snort. He could actually do tricks with that big fiddle. He was to have chicken dinners to have to have chicken dinners. Always he had a smile for everybody. It was a golden smile, too. It always me as if I ask Johnson had more teeth than anybody in the world. There were frequent reports that Jerries was acting ugly and surly, and Johnson was happy-go-lucky and friendly. As a matter of fact, Jerries is a big, friendly fellow. He was sufferer of back pain, and I never tran because he would, he could not entirely get over it. That made him worry. He was not surly or sullen. He was not a tran because I wanted to learn as much as possible about my job as referee. As the Fourth of July approached he business made me sit up and think.

Lloyd And Company To Battle Black Sox Twice On Sunday
John Henry Lloyd and his Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City will be in Baltimore Sunday to engage in a doubleheader at Maryland park.
The ability of the Sox to deal with the Giants will determine their chances of remaining in third place in the League standings. A double loss will cause the two teams to swap places as the Bears are right on the back of the Sox. If the Sox can cop both games it will leave them sitting in a strong position with a chance of getting even with Harrisburg at a later date for second-bon
It looks like the young man Strong, will be called on to put a crimin in the invaders as the Sox hit it. It is rumored that late hours and bad booze mixed with wild women have the Sox shot to pieces. The few players that keep in condition have to bear the burden of the whole lot.

YOUNG MEN—THINK OF YOUR FUTURE
How about it, are you qualified to face it—are others doing more and getting more out of life than you know already, or if you don't know already, how can you down it. No one can make it easier and smarter. I have tally, morally, I believe I can have thousands of other men can just be trained to help you your own. I help you to regain and maintain your health.
MIDDLE-AGED MEN
Consitute a large part of my practice. At this time of life a psychological change takes place in the need of an experienced doctor for men to not only treat them at home, but to advise them as to what to avoid to regain health, strong nerves and a sound body.
BEAR IN MIND
That my offices compete are fully equipped with the latest and most scientific apparatus and appliances for the diagnosis and successful treatment of chronic diseases. That I am ripe in years of experience in my chosen field of profession, that I will not promise more than I can give and that each time you call you will receive the treatment advisable. That my fees for services are reasonable and that every seek and ailing person will receive the same thorough examination and service as though you paid my small fee in advance. There is no person too poor to receive my best advice free and if you are out of work and money do not let that keep you from calling as I will arrange my terms of payment in such a way that will enable the poorest person to receive treatment from me.
NERVES AND BLOOD ARE LIFE
The lack of nerve force is found in all men all ages. This is true with all men ages. This is true with all men ages. Life from the day launder to the mechanic or professional man does not suffer the same sufferers—no man is exempt from the aliment who has relied on the doctor. We have the result of overwork, distortion, sedentary habits or worry, remembrance of vital organs are moving the right doctor makes it more difficult the right doctor makes it more difficult you might reach an symptom, and it duration beyond relief if you delay too long.
No Pain, No Loss of Time From Work by Scientific Methods
DO NOT LET MONEY MATTERS NOR FALSE PRIDE KEEP YOU AWAY. I AM PREPARED TO GIVE YOU Serums, Bacterins, Vaccines and candy are examples of this character that have been tried and proved a success.

Cumberland, Md. (Staff Correspondence)—With one of the largest delegations in the history of the order and record finance reports, the 177th Communication of the Maryland Grand Lodge, F. A. A. M., ended its sessions in Cumberland, Wednesday.
The meeting began Sunday evening when 309 delegates, arriving on a special train over the B. & O. were given the provisional keys of the city by officials and welcomed by citizens.
Mayor Thomas W. Koon, and Ex-Senator, George L. Wellington, on behalf of the city, and the Rev. F. R. Drummond, representing the citizens extended and party cooperation in the city, and party cooperation. Introduced by beauty Grand Master, William Cooper, as a mayor, who had been elected six times by the help of colored voters, because of his fair and efficient administration, Mayor Koon extolled the Masonic institution as the leading force in this world, working for the headstrong of human beings.
Ex-Senator Wellington
Although striken by a perilytic struggle, and hardly able physically to speak, Ex-Senator Wellington delivered an unusual applause, a short and touching address of welcome. During his remarks, he recounted great Maryland political battles in which he and members of the race had worked hard in hand. A storm of applause rose from the theatre, when he recalled the efficient leadership and sterling qualities of the late Hiram Watty. Appropriate responses were made by Grand Master Willard W. Allen, Senior Grand Wayden, Prof. Thomas Joseph, and the first Grand Master Joseph Evans. Music for the occasion was rendered by the Hurris Orchestra, and the Masonic choir.

INSURANCE MEN MOVE TO HALT BENEFIT FRAUDS
Pool Interests In Employment Of Medical Examiner To Curb Faked Illness
TO SCAN REPORTS AND MAKE EXAMINATIONS
Company Heads Say Thousands are Paid Out Annually on False Blanks
In a move to curb the many cases of faked illness and the freedom with which some physicians fill out fake insurance benefit blanks for patients, best insurance companies pooled their interest last week in providing funds for the employment of an examiner to supervise this work.
This examiner, who will work out of the office of the insurance Commissioner, will follow up cases and strive to eliminate, practices which insurance men say are costing them thousands of dollars an-
Faked Illness
There are hundreds of men and women, heads of some of the companies say, who regularly each year "go on the societies" and with the assistance and often the connivance of some of the physicians, are able to illness and collect several weeks of insurance disability benefits.
One case was called to the attention of th department where one woman belonging to three separate companies has collected five week's worth of money each year for the last six years.
There are certain seasons of the year, they say, when the companies look for a larger amount of illness, but these do not follow the Board of health mortality or disability in fact but are more prevalent preceding Easter and other festive holidays.
Curb Physicists
There are also some physicians who will willingly sign a benefit blank even in cases where they know that the alleged patient has no reason to be confined to his or her home. Such cases will be checked up by the central medical examiner and physicians of this type will be close.

Sunday-school was conducted, an dat twillight, each evening, the story hour is enjoyed. Monday afternoon a birthday party was given on the lawn in honor of the girl. The farm does the farm through the oak Service Department of John Hopkins Hospital. The Circle needs money to carry on this work. Have you done your bit? I not, do it now please.

solves have under written the expenses of the medical examiner for this first year, but say they expect to ask the next session of the legally scrutinized. Insurance men themslutretro create such an office under supervision of the State Insurance Commissioner.
he said that the new plan William W. Allen, President of the Southern Life Insurance Company, stated that he heartily approved the plan. Harry O. Wilson, head of the Mutual Benefit Society, who served on a committee which worked on the details of the effort, also approves.
Another, benefit some insurance men say that may come from the movement will be to bring the insurance fraternity closer for mutual interest.
No Hardship
The move to curb fake illness will not work a hardship in those entitled to sick benefits, its promoters claim. On the other hand it will insure the prompt payment of all legitimate claims.
As one insurance man puts it, "It has come to the place where we can deal honestly with the disability department. The only other alternative would be to increase premiums, and this would be unjust to those who deal honestly with the companies.
Under the prevailing rate three weeks of illness benefits are more than is paid in by the insured. Cases studied show that many people plan to "go on the societies" each year at an actual profit.
They point out that the cost of carrying the risk, the protection of the companies, cannot be profitably carried when there is a wholesale practice of this nature.

WEBB AND MARSHALL LEGION DELEGATES
Elected To Represent Local Post At Hagerstown Next Week
FUNERAL ALLOWANCE FOR WAR VETERAN
At the regular meeting of the Walter Green Post No. 14, American Legion, held on last Wednesday, the following delegates and alternates were elected to represent the post at the State Convention, to be held in Hagerstown, Maryland on Aug. 29 to publish an exclusive Capt. Walter T. Webb, delegate, leader, Post Commander; Ed W. Marshall, delegate; John Berry and Bradford James, alternates.
All veterans of United States wars, their relatives and friends, should take notice of the following: Funeral allowances. When a veteran war dies after discharge, or resignation from the service, and does not leave sufficient assets to defray expenses of his burial and transportation of his body, the government will pay a sum, not to exceed $100 for burial expenses, and pay not to exceed $5 for a flag to drape the casket. In other cases, the service officer should immediately get in contact with the United States Veterans Bureau.
If death occurs while such person is receiving medical, surgical or hospital treatment, or vocational training at government's expense, the bureau will pay, in addition to burial expenses, the actual cost of transportation of the body, to the place where the burial is performed at a particular location of the United States. This precision is applicable to veterans of all wars.
Practically all phases of the burial claims are handled in the central office. In filling a claim for burial allowances, care should be taken to present bills covering the expenditures. These bills should be on bill receipt and should be presented by the service showing for whom the service was rendered, and by whom the account was paid, if paid. If the account has been paid, the claim for burial allowances should be in the name of the person paying the account. If two or more persons have paid the accounts, then a person covering the portion paid by that person. If the account has not been paid then the claim for reimbursement should be made by the person or firm which furnished the service. Walter Green Post, No. 14, will be glad to look after this for colored ex-service men. Write to headquarters—Room B, War Memorial building, Baltimore, Md.

Be Beautiful
Be Beautiful
This column is conducted by Madame aKatherine Wilson, author of the second book on beauty culture. She will be glad to answer in the column, all questions of a reasonable length.
Miss Ada—Your coarse skin and large pores may be traced to your own neglect more than any other cause. Give your face a little more attention and you will find a great improvement.
First secure a good skin food or cream (we are sending you the name of a cream which we highly recommend by return mail), and message the face thoroughly. This must be done daily for the skin of the face is like anything else which requires constant attention, and when the necessary care is discontinued, you drift back to your former condition.
For closing the pores, a good stirring must be used. Ice is the best astringent we know. To get the best results, place a cake of ice in a cloth, and after dropping a few drops of witch hazel on the cloth, apply to the face. This treatment makes the skin and muscles of the face firm and tight, and closes the unsightly pores as well as increases the blood circulation and adds glow to the cheeks.
Miss Edna H.—Your question is not an uncommon one. Many of your younger, ladies, with a hair cut, wear a wig with it lighten, and a our young men and women delight in making their complexions a shade or two lighter. Beauty experts rather hesitate to test your hair, but if you do not follow instructions to the detail, damage is likely to result. When the hair is almost the desired shade, you may ask for the daylight with a line comb. The ammonia will add the reddish tint that you desire. You tell me that your hair is straight and if you are absolutely truthful, your hair will remain beautiful; but if the hair is inclined to be at all knikk, well, it just will be too bad. Miss X.—Your question is not in these columns. If you will send a stamped envelope, I will tell you what I think the milment appears to be. However, if you do not get in touch with me, I will consult a skin specialist at once.
Miss Maryhole--Thanks for the photograph. Yes, you are a pretty woman. I have questions that I can make that would enhance your beauty. Since your face is almost black, I can arrange your hair to look up to my bed. I were you. The fluffiness of your hair both emphasizes the thinness of your face.
Good--One of the prettiest hairdresses that I have ever seen was made up of straightened hair. After pressing, a beautiful and fast-drying haircut in hair which has been straightened.

For years I wasted hours and nervous energy scrimping hurried food from pots and pans and sent me to bathing them with flinches and scouring with powders. Then I kitchen utensils, literally shine. Steel wool can in different grades, suited to all kinds of pots, pans and dishes of glass in no time, and there are other uses for it too numerous to mention. Try it in your home, and I feel sure you’ll never go back to the old ways.

And little fleas have keeper fleas,

DELIVERY BOY’S LAMENT
I never sausage eyes as thine.
And liver round me every day.
We’ll seek some ham-let far away.
We’ll meat life’s frown with life’s caress and cleaver road to happiness.
My bonnie was fond of jazz dancing.

ACCOMMODATING
We were seated in the parlor.
We began to talk.
And I failed to understand
all of it.
"I never want to see your face!"
She sobbed, "You are a fright!"
Then I had an inspiration.
"You are a fright!"
"Mr. C
Says"
Everyone is treated exactly the same when they come to Mr. Carter. He doesn't have one kind of politeness for rich people and another kind of manners for poor folks.
Whether you have
much money, or not so
much, Mr. Carter wants
you to come and tell him
your furniture needs.
Tell him what you need
and then leave it all to

Questions-Answers In Negro History
Questions-Answers In Negro History
This column is conducted by Geo. Wells-Parker, author of *The Children of the Sun*. He will be glad to answer in his column will questionable length. Will you kindly refer me to a volume that treats scientifically with the question of racial values and the question of gender in the colony perior peoples? G. B. F. B., St. Louis, Mo. One of the best and least technical is "The Mind of Primitive Man." The Riffians are an authority and fair-minded writer. Are the Riffians who are fighting the French Negroes? B. K. L., Des Moines, Iowa. Are the Riffians are a Mohammedan tribe, inhabiting the Mureo of Morocco and the Negro of the blood. Perhaps it would be more correct to call them originally African and Negro people, whose blood has been mixed with various strains. Of what value to the American Negro is an ancient history of racial achievement? V. F. D., Philadelphia.
Such a knowledge should stimulate pride and pride brags the desire for further achievement. It is important to overcome the so-called 'inferiority complex', which is the greatest bane of the American Negro. As a man thinks, so must he be.
Was Modern Masonry cult-founded by Negroes? G. G. W. D. Washington, D. C.
Modern Masonry was not founded by Negroes, but by English. Ancient Masonry, such as we understand it, was pre-eminently an African craft. This subject requires detailed information, and space will not permit the answer here.
Is the wife of Harry Wills, the Negro heavyweight, a white woman? Mrs. Wills is a colored woman.
Was the science of mechanics, with the ancient Egyptians, I. W. Fulton, KY.
The science of mechanics was indeed well-known to the Egyptians and then to moderns. The secrets of lifting enormous weights, moving mammoth stones, drilling into granite, and finding in few in which we must use us of today.

A. This is due to lack of symvial fluid around the joints. Try massaging the paris with warm cod liver oil before retiring.
F. P. Q. Is it possible to remove a tattoo from the arm?
A—In all probability the X-mys with an expert. This must be done only by an expert.
K. K. I. Q.—What is the best soap with which to wash the hair?
A—Castle or some other pure soap
N. I. D. Q.—How can I make my soap
N. I. L. D. Q.-How can I make my skin more moist? A.-Apply I per cent yellow oxide of mercury olment to the lashes at night. W. H. I. L. Q.-Would high or low altitude be more zeneficial for a child suffering from vascular heart disease. A.-Low altitude is better. E. T. W. Q.-I rubbed the skin off the mite and then now discharge what looks like water. Please tell me what will remedy this. I will gently gauge to prevent the strockings from rubbing against the raw part. This is merely a temporary remedy. Consult a physician. He will give you proper care.

RECIPES
A delicious raspin leaf, or cake, may be made by using 2 teacups of the light syrup, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup raspin, or cooled prunes or flies. Add flour to make quite thick, sir wilt, put in leaf pan and let it stand. Light, L. D. B. Iceland, V.
Pineapple Sponge
You never are a better dessert than this. Two cups finely chopped fresh water, one cup of sugar, one tablespoon gelatine, whites of 2 eggs. Use the juice of the pineapple, adding water to make one cup. Add the sugar to the water will be needed. Add juice and water to pineapple and cook 10 minutes. Sift the sugar and remove from the sugar the water for 10 minutes and stir in boiling pineapple mixture as it is removed beginning to boil. Fold in the whites of the eggs, heat until stiff and dry, until firm and well chilled. Serve with a boiled custard made with the yolks of eggs. MARGARET BELL, Albuquerque.
Build With Food and Sunshine
I am in a health, appetizer, but I am thin. What can I do to build flesh?
You may eat vegetables, both creamed and buttered—and not just potatoes—you may eat milk, lettuce, eggs, cereals with cream, whole wheat and fruit butters. You may eat custards, both boiled and baked. You should drink milk, plain or with milk, once or twice when your meals. Eat creamed
Then you should spend considerable time out of doors in the sunshine, exercising if you need it; or just lying quietly. Perhaps you are burning too much fuel in nervous energy.

The greatest novel of the year "Veiled Aristocrats"
By Gertrude Sanborn
DECIDEDLY ORIGINAL
FULL OF VIVID 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 our population. The author's treatment of the subject is original; some will say that it is overdone, but she has nevertheless made a compelling story.—The Boston Globe, January 5, 1924.
The story moves at the pace demanded by interest and throws light upon many phases of the Negro character. It challenges controversy and seems destined to be the center of a lively discussion.—The Milwaukee Journal, December 28, 1923.
We think that the book is significant in that it emphasizes the art side of Negro life which is not generally used and throughout the book the author gives facts regarding Negro life which are not generally known.—The Christian Recorder, January 12, 1924.

"I have never analyzed my love for him. Love is the one emotion that shows you comfortably stand and share into the sun and say it is composed of this and that. It is so with love. It warms and envelopes—one expands through its power. If it goes out, night comes on." Night—the spirit often knows night. Mine has known it. I am often very lonely. I seem to know that I am not alone. They are so hard—so cold—they think so sad of beauty—they say—they are a smashing girl at a department store—come and play bridges at the pool. They follow the private stock—the heat is positively distressing—the cold amnesia. I shall run south—how utterly charming, how sweet, how my dream, where did you secure so darky a bitter—don't inhend to that woman over near the doorway—she looking in your direction—she is deafly lovely. I only want beauty and quiet people who think and dream." You shall have them." You shall understand into each other's eyes.
Late in the afternoon, the patch of wall finished, Rod left the Cartwright residence by the areaway. His was not a stylish exit, nor a pompous one, but a simple, simple, simple homeward through the shadows, circumspectly jiggling a ducky pail that had run dry of turpentine. That's the way he looked to the policeman, some fine night, hot. Hurry along and take your 'skirt' up to the park to see the moon shine."
The policeman could not see that Rod was really a column of fire; fire, fire, fire. The long darkening streets; he could not see that Rod's soul glowed with the colors of a many-faced gem. Natale—Natalie—he sang and the thought of the overpowering luxurious obsequious servants, limousines and expensively nurtured Dog cows could not drown the song. In Rod's mind Natale's image stood clear of obstructions: clear of padded sophistication; clear of a lamp that gleamed and beckoned.
Rod swung along wrapped in a mist of dreams. Shut away behind thick webs of softness across Natalie's web so that she ran to a window and, pushing its drapery aside, leaned out to scan the quiet street. There he was, the curb and the street behind him from the curb—so light—grateful so full of mysterious charm that was half expressed and half intangible. A painter of houses, indeed! Rather a mentor of forgotten lore; a high priest of witchcraft; a weaver of delicate visions. Natalie stood in the window a long time. When she turned away the curb she stood still and long since enveloped Rod. Natalie flung her arms above her curly head: "ou l'ouvant cru! It has been my most interesting afternoon in America!"

Sunlight streamed through ruffled curtains to seater its quiet pleasures among daly blue dishes, ripe crab and crystal bowl, flowers and singing birds.
Rod and Amber lingered in the Blair breakfast room to talk over the adventure Rod had and behind the solvent Lake Shore Drive.
"You'd love Miss Cartwright. Amelia's genuine and fair-minded. She's full of wonderfully deep and serious, too." "I hope it will be possible for me to know her." "I hope it will be. She's been brought up in France, as I told you, and as far as I can judge from our short acquaintance she's entirely an American woman when it comes to her question." "A colored copier and his wife, friends of mine, are coming to Chicago for number of years. I will give a description for them and a musical program. You might invite Miss Cartwright to come down with you. I believe it would be an interesting experience for you."
Thank you. I'll extend the invi-

"When will that be, beod!" she said, "she can come to." This is only Thursday, Rod signed—Amber laughed. Rod thought of Natalie constantly. During the day he hurried about to his employer. At night he went to Ramon at the University and practiced intricate steps. He washes over to McChelin's studio whenever a leisure moment permitted. McChelin was intensely interested in Natalie as a student. He was surprised and pleased to know that she had expressed a wish to talk with him.
"I have every reason to hope you will be Carwright in her own house, Carr."
"It will be an interesting experience if she invites me to her home."
"Man, you'll be invited, and not because your family owns the Colossal Building and you tote a gold canoe, not because you stir tea in the best hotel in town every afternoon; not because you roll around in a gold-handed roulster—you'll be invited because you have a compelling personality, and because you have brains! That's something!"
"That's everything!"
As the days passed Natalle, he'd, dwelt on the remembrance of their short pleasant adventure. She was sorry she had postponed his visit to Monday. It was a long way off. Friday—Saturday—Sunday, three terrible, interminable days when one's spirits were keyed high. She might so easily have said Sunday instead, Sunday was always a dreary day. It might be spent at the country club; at the home of any of a dose abrigently polished lids; it might be spent in reading about in the car, but motoring didn't agree with Chow, and to leave him at home proved equally as disसociating to his delicate temperament. The spending of Sunday presented many complications and small perplexities. A smart ring at the telephone at eleven o'clock Sunday morning, but settled Natalle's place.
A smooth, deep voice asked for Miss Cartwright. It had a captivating upward trend that left one expectant of the met disbelief. Miss Cartwright. If you will have the goodness to remember me I shall feel highly fettered. I have already sent you a note, but my impatience to renew an acquaintance so delightfully hegumenical is not enough. It is Mr. Lane? Yes? I recall quite well your voice. I heard you in those chilly little sketches at Mistlewood College's studio. You are on the stage now. "No-at a loose and at present." "Sunday is a glorious day to call upon friends. 'You will come this afternoon--to tea?' was hoping you would ask us." "No, Mistlewood Lane interacts. He was a handsome person, well set up. Natalie told herself that he was 'squirish, tallish, grandish.' Lane never forgot his appearance nor allowed anyone else to do so. He asked the drama spoken. His slogan was:
"Watch me - I'm going to be great!" among crowds of people and forming friendships to suck them dry as a boy would suck oranges and to then cast a shadow on them by seeing, as a provider housewife would see, of marmalade jars in the bedrooms and blossoms twigs in the seeds. Lane was both pathetic and indignant that was both pathetic and indignant.

The fact that he had followed in the wake of a little lady whom he hoped to marry, she showed great good treatment at the last moment by marrying a stout brother. Lane, at the time of her marriage, was crushing about unmarried.
Lane believed in free love. He was a busy disciple of his doctor, having at the tender age of twelve attained dominance to whom he had forced expounded the theory that, only freedom makes for greatness, and I intend, dear lady, to be one of them. Someone told him that every artist had experienced at some point or another abject poverty. So last left most of his clothes at the club and he stayed around two weeks, only going back to the club for showers, honeysocks, to change his clothes, to see his friends and to get his malt. He had also great children and also great students and he arranged for a correspondence course in history, but one of his friends studied most of the lessons he was out at the libraries all abentr. He wanted to become great yet, he had never had a great friend to be had never made a great friend to him. He had never thought great offering; he had never thought great great thoughts. Even so at last his wish attained fulfillment, but not in spite of his great great great

One man said of him: "Every time I talk to Lang I want to take a dose of gelatin." "That so—explain." "I mean he has the effect of dampening up one's liver—makes one groggy." "Well, I say he's light as chaff. Never seems to snick to anchorage." "Has so beautiful daring he shattered and forced those who came around to the children. She Warren was to lastinder. She really fired him." "He tells me he knew Natalie Carrwell in Paris. 'Going to look in a health.' She wont come if his pet notices." "No, but I'll let hell favor her nieces." "That about that little Greigman old?"
"Oh, he tried love in a cottage either. They want somewhere and a pristine wilderness—no dirt screen—not hot water—no creeping cactus—no sand. They want completely wrapped up in him. When he generously told her he had her, she actually held him. I understand he developed a noble sense for him—went scouting around the desert and found all the elements of domestication said he wanted to buy a trakt with birch on it, seetle down in a clearer, build a mail box and a pier. His deception gave out about the time the Crespiat girl had given up all her Crepatiat girl and all the stairs in out of her ruffles."

Retired Minister Tells How He Keeps in Good Form With the Assistance of Black-Draught.
West Graham, Va.—The Rev. Lewis Eras, a well-known retired minister, now past 80, living here has a high opinion of Black-Draught, which he says he has taken for years. I had been suffering with my liver, "ho says, 'Sometimes the pain would be very intense and my back would hurt all the time. Black-Draught was the first thing I found that would give me any relief. My liver has always been sluggish. Sometimes it gives me a lot of trouble. I have suffered a lot with it—pains in my side and back, and bad headache, caused from extreme billiousness. After I found Black-Draught I was able to as it so was. I felt a spell coming on and it relieved the cause at once. I can recommend it to anybody suffering from liver trouble. A dose or two now and then keeps me in good form. So from selected medicinal roots and herbs, and containing no dangerous mineral drugs, Black-Draught is nature's own remedy for a tired, lazy liver.

South Atlantic. Ga.—In this new and brighter era, which has dawned for the word, the Methodist Episcopal Church, along with the other great branches is certain to play her part. This was shown during the session of the Griffin District Conference, which was held at Jonesboro, Ga., July 29-August 2nd.
The Rev. M. M. Alston, the very energetic pastor, with the good people of Jonesboro of all denominations extended the visitors a very heart and dial welcome. Throughout the session, the conference and the perfect harmony were performed and loyalty were manifested as never before. The session opened with the coming together of over 400 boys from all over the District, each boys' club trying to excel the other in every respects.
The reports were of unusual interest. This conference succeeded in raising its quota for the Southwestern Christian Advocate, which was then benevolence and the most bilateral suppor¬ erability. The interest on the part of the people from one side of the District to the other towards the necessity of turning the attention of the church towards the saving of the young people was aroused as never before. The response on the part of the young people, has gone beyond our foremost expectation. Under the wise leadership of their Big Brother, Dr. D. H. Stanton, the district superintendent, nothing but success can follow.

The Tennessee law against the teaching of the theory of evolution makes it the teacher of all the universities, normals and all other public schools of the state, which are supported in whole or in part by the state to teach any theory that denies the story of the divine creation of man as taught in the Bible to teach instead that man has come from a lower order of animals.
in regard to the penalty, the law reads:
**The Law**
"Anne teacher found guilty of the violation of this act shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon condition, shall be fined not less than not more than the law was passed March 12th, and been operative on the signature of Governor Anster Poy, March 21st.
We have a case in a civil ancient superiority and full-founded belief in the proceedings of the court of Princess Anne County, Va., last year.

Children in school today are not like they used to be.
This is the view of Elmer Hendgen, practice teacher in School with a score of years of experience behind him.
An AFRICOM teacher sent a find out if he is today in school are found to be any different from the children of twenty or thirty years ago.
Mr. Henderson's teacher, the children today know moreadvance faster in school, play more, pick their own friends, have better trained teachers, but have lost some of the children in abroad children and in other days.
He says:
"Children are wiser today than former. Their power of discernment is greater and they early dislaugh between the true and the false, the sensitive and the sensitive, that the youth of today do not know. The children learn sophistication from their children and use it as they grow older but even this is growing less and
"Science demands the Truth. The new methods of teaching insist that everything and everything be questioned and examined for the Truth. The Holy Bible is facing an on-sought, many "fundamental" objections to searching questions and claim that they are evidences of profanity. Others feel that the Bible and God can withstand any and all queries—for God is Truth. The fourth of today denounce Hypo-pity and call for consistency. When left to themselves they practice frankness and honesty. It is this frankness that appeals many. The openness is assaulted when it should be admired.
Enter Hi School Farler
"Children are entering his school at an earlier age now than several Years ago."
The reasons are:
The standard of scholarship is lower and thus pupils find it easier to accomplish work of each grade.
The Standard for Promotion is lower and thus more pupils are promoted from grade to grade.
Carelessness and too much len-lency are displayed by teachers in promoting children.
Summer Schools help decrease the number of non-promotions and incentives for promotion. The Kindergarten has proven a valuable agency in preparing pupils for entrance upon the regular grade rock. Facilities are placed at the distance of the children of today which were years ago. These facilities increase "brain power" and enlarge the child's world.

Still Believes
After the years of human progress and hundreds of years of public and private education, and hundreds of years of scientific research, man still believes in witchcraft, poisoning, scientific thinking, and adulteration, and regards them, as evidences of atheism. To be sure modern man does not burn the scientists, but he perceives them, surveys them and outracks them wherever learning is
Opinion Of Leaders
It is important in considering the question of science and religion to obtain the opinion of the leaders of the church and the leaders of science on the question. They to, a great extent, share their people on such questions. We can not expect a change of belief among the people until there is a change of belief among their leaders. With this in mind, and for their own purposes of this paper, and the public, the writer has sent letters of inquiry to several of the leading theologians and scientists in America, concerning the theory of religion, and the Tennessee law against the teaching of the theory of evolution. The writer propounded the following questions:

Faults Of System
"Why shouldn't this child make rapid progress in school? The kids today do not instill the 'knowledge and discipline' and you it claims as its aim to 'make so socially efficient boys and girls.' Since there is no influence the children make on their education, the inefficiency of the graduates. Those who have skipped grades with few exceptions justify the c complains that "Junips enter the high school now with the following deficiencies:"
Weakness in the fundamentals of Arithmetic and English. Little self-reliance.
Intensity to handle situations out of the ordinary. High School teachers complain that they are unable to do High School Work. It is not guaranteed that the Junior High will even remedy these conditions.
Lack Of Ambition
“The zeal for learning is not as great now as before.
Reasons are:
The confused idea of “Learning.”
The financial success of men whose schooling was medicare.
The scarcity of good paying positions for men and women of superior learning.
The hesitancy in putting aside the idea that brain power is inherited.
Luxiness is on the increase; also satisfaction with a little learning.
The lack of confidence in the “Learned,” brought about because of the numerous instances when the “Learned” take advantage of the “Unlearned,” the statistics showing the number of persons taking advantage of higher learning are very discouraging.
Not Discouraged
Mr. Henderson is not discouraged by the apparent lack of ambition in many school children today. The pendulum is swinging back the other way now, he says, and the time will come soon when children will have the old time eagerness to learn.

WALSH AIMS AT SENATE JOB IN MASSACHUSETTS
Ex-Senator, Catholic, Anti-
the L JO Friend and M
Race Has Good Chance
POST NOW HELD BY
SENATOR W. BUTLER
Coolidge May Have To Re-
pudiate Ku Klux To Pull
His Friend Thru
Boston, Mass.—The only candidate who declined to declare himself in the last campaign with respect to the Ku Klux Klan, like Banquos Ghost the issue will not down, and now, President Coolidge is confronted with the necessity of permitting his administration to give sanction to Klan repudiation on account of the probable defeat facing Senator Butler by ex-Senator Walsh in the 1926 elections.
Certainly, no farmlined person suspects or ever suspected Mr. Coulledge of or warning of or sympathizing with his attack. He has defended his pre-occupation silence to the dictates of political exigency, which after all was ill-worthy for and unlawful for him, and has defended his powerful is political exigency, and like a two-sided sword, wrests both ways.
The fact that ex-Senator Walsh has an international Committee Chairman Butler, present incumbent, to succeed the late Senator Lodge in the Senate election of next year, has been a point of contention through Walsh is a democratic, Massachusetts rock-ribbed, Republican, and no third candidate appears to weaken the Republican candidate, as happened with Walsh's defeat. W. Weeks.
Balance of Power
First, there is the Negro. His was the balance of power vote in 1922, when Henry Cabot Lodge only demanded the same relationship to the Senate fight of 1926. It is well known that the colored man never is disturbed by religious questions in matters of race. He is not disturbed by whether a candidate is a Catholic or a Knight of Pythias. The fellow who treated him well, when possessed of the opportunity—or makes him think so—has come to be his man. Senator Walsh always treated the colored man well—in a human sort of way. Somehow, Walsh has that rare knack of making service tarot cards, a pain, in stirring contrast to the cynicism of the late Senator Lodge. The snappy business like manner of Butler and the obvious, intentional secretary, Lundy, now boss of Butler's Senate office. Walsh is on the board of directors of Cardinal Gibbs institute, at Ridge, Md., and in many other ways a friend of the president at and for Howard University.
Ku Klux
From Massachusetts Republican point of view, the most formidable obstacle to the full Senate term for the Klan is the Klan Klan. More than any State Massachusetts resents the presence of the Klan with firearms and other offensive weapons and protests with bison, Massachusetts, home State of President and National chairman, a scalloped white beard, and repudiated the hooded order.
The powerful Irish and Catholic elements are 1950 FACTO anti-Klan. Walsh has opposed the Klan openly, fervently, consistently against anti-Klanism have common cause; hence, his perhaps, more than even break to win next November, a year; therefore, administration concern; whereas Klan membership reduces to the extremity of organizing Irish Republican Clubs in Democratic Boston and other Democratic strongholds. And a democrat, Frames J. Hogan State senator, Collins County resident in that body, is the organizer.
Butler To Tour
Moreover, the program, as printed in the "Boston Globe" calls, for Chairman Butler's swing around the Democrats, for the purpose of destroying that party in the North and West on the ground of the offensiveness of the Southern branch (or root), particularly that root's alliance with the Klan. Northern Democrats are forced to smile at the announced intention of the Republican Chairman because the Republican majority frankly is pro Klan, while Massachusetts, rock-ribbed Republican community, has had more trouble with the state—and the Massachusetts Democrats are anti-Klan.
Absolute Fairness
It is not generally known that Walsh's absolute fairness while Governor and his four square stand against his actions, and an argument on his own religious persuasion. Such is a fact, and accounts for the coming attempts of the opposition to add to Walsh's position, why of the Irish Republican clubs.
Up A Tree
The Massachusetts senatorial situation frankly has the Administration "up tree" and it is readily adaptioned. The president President Coulodge will suffer thru his defeat of campaign manager and close political associate by ex-Senator Walsh. He will receive a substantial appointment to two responsible office is in the making for the Negro. Butler must not be defeated in Massachusetts, and his Senate Office secretary must become more of a good
Meets Declaration
Butter told a delegation of the Equal Rights League last week he heard of a group of civil departments, but did not believe much of it was going on. He also promised to send a bill to the Senate. In the delegation were: W. M. Troter, Rev. D. L. Ferguson, Rev. M. M. Gill, Rev. P. Proctor, Mrs. M. Gravim Simpson.

INTIMATE ADVICE
TO MARRIED WOMEN
Mother of Two Volunteers Information to the Childless
Married women who, by reason of certain physical ailments or constitutional weakness, have been denied the joys of motherhood, may obtain helpful information on this subject by communicating with Mrs. Idn Gehring, Kansas City, Mo. "For a long time my condition was such that I feared I might never know the blessing of motherhood," Mrs. Gehring writes. "I was dreadfully nervous, and had periods of melancholia and intense suffering. Now I have glorious health, and am the proud mother of two beautiful, healthy children. No: the least of all, I feel that I am now a better companion and a greater inspiration to my husband in every way." Mrs. Gehring believes hundreds of married women would like to know the secret of her new happiness and she will be glad to exchange letters in confidence with those who write her. Letters should be addressed to Mrs. Idn Gehring, Lock Box 759-B2, Kansas City, Mo. Please feel at liberty to write to her. She has nothing to sell. Information gained from her experience will be freely given.

One doctor said that if you read funny stories it will prolong life. This was proven false however, when one guy read one and laughed himself to death.
If you would live long, says another doctor, you should follow the example *in* the book. But you ask what the cat gained? But you ask what the cat gained by grimming. What power has he, in politics, and what is the amount of his income tax. There is only one thing to the credit of the cat and that is he has white hair. What would we want with blue lives in these days of prohibition.

The key to health and happiness is to keep smiling. If you are broke and hungry, smile. Think of old John B., who has plenty of food, but can't eat.
If you are cripple, and can't walk, keep smiling. If you could walk, you are likely to be struck by an auto.
If none of the pretty james give a pap about you and you whirlpool with a banjo-eyed frilly smile on. Think of how little worry she'll cause you when you leave home.
If your wife runs away with the greer man, burst eight out and laugh, because now you won't have to pay him what you owe.
We couldn't go on the plemc that we had been planning for a month, but did we carry a graveyard look on our face and mope around for the rest of the week? Did we stop strolling? You bet your life we did, Grr r r r.

CHAPTER XV.
From the Story of John Jasper, by Wm. E. Hutcher
I started out with my laddy's son to hear this Sunday afternoon sermon of Jasper's on the "Sun do Move" at quarter after one. It was only a fifteen minute walk, and the service was not due to start until three o'clock. Shades of the Paranoids and shadows of the Pyramids! As we headed towards the street of planetary constellations, the streets of river cities, the crenes of blacks, relieved here and there by companies of whites, thronged the sidewalks. Were Hannibals Carthaginian legions being turned on by the earthquake ripped open the foundations of Richmond, and were the people, caked with the soil, fleeing for life? It was more trawquil than that.
It was however the town, upheaved and agitated, suicided uproar and supreme sensation of all his race—as I now began to realize he was before we got to the church we collapsed on. "No use of going" they said—"house already packed; streets full of men fighting and women dying; sort of
Desperate Purpose.
But these appalling things only urged me on. If there was to be a congestion or to be a catastrophe to me was my mission to attend. Besides, I had in me a desperate purpose to get into that house, and I promised the boy that we'd sink or swim together. I understood was perfected when I was in the last resort. The occasion had jumped the common road, and it was folly to falter now before any obstacle. I light through that mob has left me some marks to be noticed when I am dressed for my burial. My toes were trumpeted into jelly. At one time I was lifted by a crush, an abrasion, and another as a consequence. Several times I thought the landlady's boy was doomed to become an unrecognizable mangle. It began to sift into man, and nothing short of an entire situation and a public monace. My bestness was more and more to see him.

The church when first seen, looked like a tall boat horse on the

heads of thousands, and yet I pushed along. Now, right here, I had to drop my honesty and become a hypocrite. How I get into that world is hard (and hard). There is a muscular, ginger-bread fellow who stays in the office down town, and he broke all rules and I know not how many bones, and miraculous as it was, handed me and putted me up with boots in the boy's nose.
Moved Br Song
Now, excuse me from describing the music and praying, though I would like to mention that the song that the old man in the Amen corpse outcueing voice started, up and which it looked to me like all the people in the world were singing, rather jeeked me out of myself and took me off on its waves, and when I landed on the handkerchief in an unusual way.
Jasper Prays
Jasper made a prayer also, and, when he talked to the Lord about his own meanness and his ignorance, knocked out of me about half of my notion that he was a dribbling old egotist and numskillist. He took me back by several surprising things which he said to the Lord in a most serious way, and I have to own that by the time he said to me, "I am not a fool" (in his favor). Further, allow me to say right here, that I know positively, that I never saw so many people in a house of men, and I never saw the church that afternoon. Women sat in each other's laps, the pulpit was piled up, and all the spaces chinked, packed, and doubled up. I ought to add that the attention was oppressive. No whispering, no looking around; only silence, except when Jasper started them. He suddenly suddenly subdued sovereignty of the man.
Jim Crow
I saw that the white people had been favored in getting seats, and there were hordes of them. The legislators abounded, and there were preachers, lawyers, notable men, and strangers in Richmond, all haring together and very serious. It wasn't I confess, what I expected. I looked for a circus, and had hooked a funeral,—no, not a funeral; it wasn't delusional enough for that, but far more reasonable for that, and wokeful than a funeral can be.

Bs C. E. H. Daniel
Hidge, Md.—One hundred and fifty active farmers of both sexes attended the first Farmers' Conference at Gibbons Institute, some coming from a distance of sixty miles.
The meeting was led by Mr. Rice and Mr. Ballard from the University County Agent for St. Mary's county Greater Food Production in Southern Maryland was the topic under discussion, centering on Home Gardens, Poultry, emphasizing two important elements of life stock,粪便 hogs.
Questions Asked
The speaking was informal, but comprehensive, and was interpolated by many pertinent questions from the students. The questions were women, who exhibited very keen interest in all of the subjects under discussion. Mr. Gallard, speaking on "The Growing Fruits and Vegetables of asparagus" and the cultivation of asparagus, a much-needed crop, which was worrying of cultivation as a money-maker, as well as for its value in the kitchen garden. Mr. Daniel, Principal of the school, would agree to start an asparagus bed during the coming spring as an experiment, and promised that the institute would set aside an acre for such an experiment. Mr. Daniel would make a start. The proper raising of tomatoes for home use, for the early market and for the canneries was also discussed, and the high qualities of the tomato as a food rich source of vitamins to children were stressed.
By Chance
Mr. Rice gave most valuable and practical information on the proper care of poultry, bringing out the fact that too much poultry-raising pressure left to chance and to "luck." He emphasized the necessity for cleanliness, and for the moving of the poultry yard and thorough disinfecting of its buildings whenever disease of any kind is discovered among the poultry. The improper marketing of poultry, Mr. Rice said, is one of the chief causes of poor stock, easily susceptible to disease, the tendency being greater in poultry from which the poultry of the following season are produced
Turkeys Regulated
Transportation
Mr. Lawrence Williams, the treasurer of the Institute, and a member of the legislature from Southern Maryland, brought out the same meeting this morning of a market, and the overcoming of transportation difficulties.
The meeting closed with a vigorous appeal from the Rev. John L. Hancock, the president of farmers, the only obligation it that each member should each year undertake some specific improvement of his farm. This organization, it was requested, should be under the supervision of the plantation of Mr. Daniel asked for a meeting in the late winter or early spring just prior to the planting season which was immediately agreed upon.

WEEKLY SERMON

Text: "WHO HATH BEEN MADE, NOT AFTER THE LAW OF A CARNAL COMMANDMENT, BUT AFTER THE POWER OF AN END. LESS LIFE."—Hebrews 7: 16.
THE POWER OF AN ENDLESS LIFE
The evidence accepted in a court by witnesses when taken as such is the convicting or releasing power when taken as the evidence of truth. The court of the World's Universal Hope is setting out to examine the resurrection of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. What is the proof of the case which is the most important the world history? Let the witness tell us that the endlessness that the hearts of the people may rest secure in the hope of immortality. The first witnesses to testify in the world's court were the endlessness of the tomb of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. They were to tell the disciples from stealing the dead body their Lord and Master. The tomb was sealed by the Pharisees themselves. Matthew tells of the earth-quake, the descent of the angels and the rolling away of the tomb of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, now the guards told the truth the rolling away of the stone. No doubt they looked into the tomb before leaving and saw that it was empty. The enemies of Jesus accepted the evidence by the guards and offered to bribe them to conceal the resurrection.
FIFTH WITNESSES—The two disciples on the road to Emmaus Jesus was seen by the apostles several times. According to 1901, Christ appeared to the resurrection, seeing Christ on the road to Damascus. SINTH WITNESS—Christ, the greatest of all. He foretold his death and life. The court could have accepted these proofs of the power of an endless life through the resurrection of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, and may we live to live again as Jesus on our we pray. This Kingdom come, the King of us, is it in us to believe. All this we ask in the Name that is above all other names, Amen.

SCOTLAND YARD DETECTIVES ON ROGERS TRAIL
(Continued from Page 1)
color question when to my great astonishment I was informed by Mr. Johnstone of the team of Layton and Johnstone, that Scotland Yard had been looking for me for some time and had been accusing Whaley of being me.
"Accordingly I went to Scotland Yard where I was questioned by Inspector William Brust. He received me very courteously and told me that he was only carrying out instructions, which were to the effect that I had doubtful associations in New York City. I waited, while he consulted a large sheaf of documents for him to name these questionable parties expecting the names of any of the dozen or so Nero Communicis I know in New York, or perhaps Marcus Garvey when to my great astonishment named Dr. Dulcis. He informed me, as I said, "in dangerous man," as I said, "was news to me for not only had I hitherto not regarded Dulcis as dangerous to white world domination, but the fact, is that although I lived not so much, blocks away from personal acquaintances, the rightest possible personal acquaintance. I am further associated with the Messenger which issues most of Dulcis's policies.
"I was also questioned as to the means of my income, the inspector informing me that Moscow was causing a lot of trouble among the colored races and the too glad set hold of a man of my institution. I told him that the money I was travelling on was the result of my hard earned savings. After asking me to leave a copy him to read, he refused to register with the police, and told me that I wouldn't be troubled any further."
"In spite of the courtesy and this assurance, I felt a bit uncomfortable at first. I thought I would think I was being followed everywhere by sleuths, still all in all it was great fun.
Trailed To Plymouth
According to Rogers he was trailed from New York to Plymouth by a detective who continued on the S.S. George Washington to the Allied Secret Service, who, he says, was with him the second out and brought up the subject of Communism several days later.
"Something told me that this man was a deterent," says Rogers, particularly over the questions that had put to me in New York City. I have been around the police and the courts too long not to know a dick when I see one, so I filled him a full of hull.
He finally brought up the subject of Communism one evening as we paced the deck and declared that it was the only cure for the filth of the world I was. I was and gave him full dose of the Communist charter, not let him take all, that long trip for nothing. And the amusing part of it was that he was on board that I was a Secret Service man. Yes, Europe, like the South man, got over the war yet.

MANIAC KILLS TWO WITH BARE HANDS
MANIAC KILLS TWO WITH BARE HANDS
(Preston News Service)
Charleston, Miss., Aug. 21—Jacob McMullen, 65 years old, farmer, was killed near here and Mrs. Marie Long, 65 years old, mother of the victim, is dying of injuries received when they were crushed and flung to the floor Tuesday afternoon by a man, crazed over religion.
Towns, whose home is near the McMullen place, had been acting strangely for several weeks. Tuesday morning he began heating his wife, Mattie Towns, Robert Simmons, and John Collins, heard her screams and came to her assistance.
Towns then dashed away from his cabin and made straight for the McMullen home.
Seizing Mr. McMullen around the waist, Towns lifted him high in the air and then dashed him to the wooded area his brother, Long, besieged him, his brother, struggling from her, chair when the crushed man seized and dashed her to the floor, crashing in her skull.
Simmons and Hollis, who had been pursuing Towns, arrived. Nelher armed. They threw themselves upon the murderer, but his strength was more than a match for the enemy. At this moment, I. M. McMullen aged brother of the murderer had come into the house, seized a shotgun and fired it into the face of the crazed man. Neighbors say the murderer had been on a peaceful man. Several weeks ago he became demented over religion, and could talk of nothing else.

They say that "neccessity is often the mother of invention," and the necessity which forced local insurance men to fuse their efforts to rid themselves of a harmful practice in the part of some insured; may work out a general city wide good.
One of the most substantial business groups in this city is the insurance group. There is a larger percentage of highly trained business men in the insurance field than in any other group. When they are organized and can group their interests for better and bigger business for the race, the educational effect will be highly beneficial.
Baltimore is essentially a "one man business city," so far as our business is concerned. There are few businesses here that could survive when the men who founded them passes away. This is due to the fact that they do not cooperate to a large extent.
But the greatest need for cooperative efforts in business and the widest spirit of organization, is to teach the coming generations that pooling of interests is profitable.
The fact is Negro business will never be able to compete with other business until we learn, like them, to cooperate, merge, and form group concerns safely. This is the kind of business that will make the future.

Lovett Fort Whiteman Replies
To Pres. Green of American Federation of Labor
CALLS ATTENTION TO
PREJUDICE IN SOUTH
High American Labor Officials in Open Fight Against Negro Progress
Chicago.
Calling attention to the shameful connivance of high labor officials in the prescription of colored labor in the South and the existence of the country, Lovett Fort Whiteman, Organizer for the American Negro Labor Congress, scores William Green, white, President of the American Federation Of Labor for his present great or the previous Chicago Meeting.
In an article in the Daily Yorker
Mr. Fort Whitman has the following to say:
The statement of Mr. William
Green president of the American
Green Labor, condemning the
American Negro Labor Congress,
is a startling and eloquent
proof of one of the biggest reasons
why it is necessary to hold the
American Negro Labor Congress.
This attitude on the trade
industry does not think it is not
necessary for the Negro workers to
oppose the terrible persecution
under which they suffer, shows exact
why it is necessary for Negro
workers to come together to demand
their full and equal rights in the
trade union. It is to be in spite of the posi-
tion of the president of the A. F. of
L—as it is perfectly clear it will be
—then it is necessary for the Negro
workers to gird up their fight
all the harder—and to fight
all the harder—in his own ground in the
trade unions.
Only a person who has no interest in the Negro industrial, workers can say that they do not suffer under special persecution and discrimination, in the industries where workers are employed, where they are not permitted to work as well as in the trade unions where they belong on an equal basis with

their white brothers but where they are either excluded or discriminated against in the majority of cases.
Yet in all of his smug denunciation of this supreme effort of the Negro workers to overcome their difficulties,
In Green does not offer the slightest suggestion of any other remedy for our troubles, nor does he even make the slightest admission of the fact that we have any "social, political and economic discrimination" to overcome.
Race Hatred
It is enlightening to note another, or trade union official, high in another or branch of organized labor, who is officially reported as follows:
er trade union official, high in another branch of organized labor, who is officially reported as follows: "To a german in the south, I am glad to be able to report that during the past two years remarkable strides have been made toward solving the Negro problem. . . . Suffice it to say that we have succeeded in making great strides forward in the south." A successful conclusion, on some nullords it has been agreed that there will be no more Negroes bleed, which mean usightfully the entire elimination from locomotive service of all Negroes and this applause in the southeast," (Aplause.) —Speech of D. B. Robertson, president of Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen, at its thirtieth convention at Detroit, Mich. June 1, 1925. G. Grissin speaks of our alleged tendency to arouse "race hatred" among Negro workers against white workers, but not a word does he speak against the capitalists and their warts are arousing against us and which is one side of the terrible burden we have to bear.
BENEZIA
There is no need hatred in Negroes against whites. There is no race prejudice in American Negroes against whites, but only a resentment of race prejudice. The coming American Negro Labor Congress is executing a law driving race hatred from the ranks of the working people, where it is utilized by employers for the demoralization and defeat of the labor union and to attack the Negro worker is not "race hatred," but a prejudice against the organized labor movement, which prejudice is the sad result of the brutal cynicism and enmity which is linked among trade unions officiated as Mr. Green shows himself to be.
Congress Alms
Altho the Negro Labor Congress has not taken any position on such questions, never which is for that he is speaking to a class which is in an unendurable position and which is seeking a way out. Then the most persecuted and exploited of all working people shall at last win their free-

That natives in West Africa do not enjoy the benefits derived from indigenisation, and are often out at the annual general meeting of the Bank of West Africa recently.
While that institution reports that insurance rates are becoming more attractive because of better health conditions, the natives do not yet enjoy this privilege to any foreign countries available today for Europeans do not apply to Africans. West African native races as yet have not in general displayed appreciation of the benefits of life assurance. Statistics as to average length of life, and a system whereby proof of age can be given, are necessary preliminaries to obtain catastrophe can be made use of by West African communities.
In India in 1874 there were not more than six life assurance companies of any standing operating in that country. In the year 1822 there were fifty-one Indian companies, in addition to many British and colonial companies. In the year 1834 the number of policies issued by one prominent Indian company was 4,823; in 1894, the same company had issued 43,356; and in 1924 its policies in force numbered 83,147.
There were 52 deaths reported by the health Department this week. Of this number 10 were infants of one year or loss.

NATIONAL INSURANCE ASSOCIATION MEETS
Sixteen Companies Represented At Annual Session In Louisville
Mortality Table of Experience Based Upon Findings Of Race Companies Urged
Louisville, K.F., Aug.—(A. N.P.)—With sixteen of the major insurance companies of the country represented the National Negro Insurance Association held its annual meeting here last week.
It was determined to secure a roster of the companies, both legal reserve and industrial, operating in the United States; to cooperate with the National Negro Insurance Association in ethical practices among the companies; to build a mortality table of experience among all the companies in the U. S. operated by Negroes; to meet in New Orleans, August, 1926, date to be determined by the Exec

Bentley, secretary, Supreme Life Co., of Columbus, Ohio; second vice president, Mr. John Hollommon, president, Pyramid Mutual Life Co., Chicago, IL; third vice president, Richard Riemann, Renélec, Richmond, Va.; fourth vice president, G.

Executive committee is as follows: Mr. E. H. Carry, Liberty Life Ins. Co., Chicago, Ill.; Mr. J. C. Bean, Dean, State University Life Insurance Co., of Durham, N.C.; Mr. L. T.

Hayes, president of the Gibraltar Life Ins. Co., Indianapolis, Ind.; Dr. J. E. Walker, president of the Universal Life, Memphis, Tenn.
dom, we can only call such a change "radical." The thinking Negro cannot be repelled by the word "radical."
And when Mr. Green expresses his solicitude for "oxidizing institutions," he probably forgets that some of the most fixed of "oxidizing institutions," are lynching, Jim Crowism, disfranchisement and exploitation of our laboring people that it has get rid of since "institutions" that all sincere Negroes are destroys.
In publishing this open answer to Mr. Green, we wish to say again that we solicit the support of all of organized labor, and we believe that the loss object of the coming congress is the solidarity of all of the workers, regardless of race, color or nationality, for the freedom and welfare of all who work. Our principal date alone to build the strength of numbers to the organized trade unions by bringing all of Negro labor into them.

Another outbreak in the occasional segregation disturbances which take place when colored families move for the first time into blocks occupied wholly by whites, took place here on Monday night, when 640 white rowdyies, men, men, women, stormed a house at 10 a.m. to a house at 10 a.m. to a house and mobbed the owner, Samuel Kreager, for renting it to colored tenants.
A police riot call, responded to by fifteen officers, perhaps prevented a more serious outcome, when the mob surrounded Kreager, calling for his life blood, were dispersed.
Mike Krager's attack
The first attack of the mob was made about 7:30 Monday afternoon, shortly after the new tenants had moved a part of their belongings into the house. At this time a group of youths entered the house and threw the furniture out in the street.
It was not until 11 a.m. that hundreds of others joined in the disturbance.
When Kreager, who was assisting the family to get moved, arrived, he was pounced upon by men and women and so roughly handled that he was cut about the body and left the scene. Officers left to guard the place saw a number of youths approach the rear and hurt stones into the windows. They gave chase and captured Walter Roach, white, 9, 21 block Oliver Roach, white, 17, 1990 Holbrook street. Notwithstanding the fact that officers testified Tuesday morning that they saw beach and Ballard burl bricks into the windows, Magistrate Roeder gave them light lines of $5.00 and costs and $1.00 and costs, responder when they were brought up for trial.
One Race Family
Up until the family moved into the house Monday there had been only one colored family in the block, a resident which is said to have lived there long before the present residents came. The new tenant said he would have to provide him with knowledge of the fact that there was objection, moved on Tuesday morning under police protection. Although the tenants were driven out by force, some of the white residents in the block told officers that the trouble grew out of the desire to increase the tenants to move into the house by giving them several weeks free rent and paying cost of moving.
MAN, 63, GETS DIVORCE IN CIRCUIT COURT
Well Known Fraternal Marf and Churchman Granted Matrimonial Freedom Under the technical plan of desertion, but charging other irregularities, William H. Wilson, 63, well known fraternal and churchman, was granted an absolute divorce from Mrs. Cora J. Wilson, in the Circuit Court last week. Both Wilson and big wife were prominent in the work of the Asbury M. B. Church, and Wilson is a member of the Old Fellows, Nazarets and Order of St. James. In his petition he claimed that his wife deserted him and named Jerome Fergus, 627 Gilbert St. and Eugene Moore, Vine street, in connection with the proceedings. Letters found by Wilson, alleged to have been written to and from Mrs. Wilson were also introduced into the evidence. Wilson lives at 1629 Miller street, while Mrs. Cora Miller resided at 916 Sarah Ann street.

Decomposed Body Sent To Health Department After Probe
The body of a dead male child was found wrapped in a bundle of newspapers in the rear of 1218 McCullah street, when the garbage man was making his rounds early Monday morning.
The body, though slightly decomposed, was said by Coroner Hennessy to be that of a male child about three months of age. Clothes in which the body was clad were examined for a possible clue. When none was found the body was sent to the health department where it will probably be cremated. The men were George Forgeson, William Coleman, and Oscar Lang.

Man Fires Upon Brother And
Wife When The Pair Are
Seen Together
Seized with a fit of jealousy
when he came upon his wife
engaged in conversation with
his brother, Jayton Coleman,
age 19, drew a revolver and
fired at the pale Sunday.
George Coleman, age 23, 1508
Ashland avenue, the brother, was
declared in a critical condition with
a bullet wound in his stomach, and
is not expected to live.
The shooting occurred at the
intersection of Orleans and Anne Sis,
when the younger brother came upon
his wife, Jake, also 19, in
attack with George.
He had followed the couple for several blocks. Payton is said to have recently come to Baltimore from rehearsal with the band, who was nearly perfect. Every bullet struck either the girl or her companion. Payton started to run after firing three shots, one taking effect in his brother's girl's thigh. About 100 persons who were near at the time of the shooting started in pursuit; the crowd swelling as it wound in and out of alleys until probably 2006 were in the wild clue accents. The man and girl were removed to the Johns Hopkins Hospital by Charles Brown, 236 S. Bond street, who was passing in his car. Coleman remains in condition while the Beatles Authorities are combing the northeastern section after receiving a was dismissed after treatment.

GOOD MORNING JUDGE
The Afro Court Reporter
If Captain Brown's good ship, "Favorite" gone down the bay on schedule time Thursday night Barney arrett. 505 N. Caroline street, would be a whole man instead of part of your annoyance gone and Lissie's part of 405 S. Dallas street, would not in the jail house.
It happened this way: Miss Marie Bell, 1513 E. Fayette street, who Tillery claims as his regular and steady sweetheart, decided to work a little trick, whereby she could spend a nice little evening with Garret, her once in a life. We will go down the bay Thursday, where the promised Sweetie Tillery, and you just meet me on the boat. Don't wait, but just get on board and I will be somewhere there, and we can find each other after the boat starts."
Tillery agreed, and was "Johnny on the spot" when boat starting time came.
But, and behold, the boat did not come that night.
Back in Miss Fell's home, there was joy and everything. Now, she surmised, with her regular out of the way of sure, she could spoon with Garrett in perfect bliss. Garrett was in on the deal and also felt sate as a Mexican quarter in the first room. She had back. Some one knocks on the door. With the usual freedom the knocker opens the door, and there in the dim light of a perfectly arranged room, he sees his sweeteet in the arms of his friend, Garrett. "Man, I thought you were down the bay," exclaimed Garrett.
Well, to make a long story short, Garrett did not have to pinch himself to find out it was well past musty and then did him to proper realization that it was all very read.
Friday morning before His Honor, with the heat of anger still registering high, Tillery explained that he had been told that dbf him elkry trick like that.
"Yes, Judge," he said, "nobody can do that and get away with it." He added, "the thing and get away with it," answered His Honor, "393 and costs."
Until Thursday night, Miss Eva Daniels, 1235 Orleans street, and Miss Irene Harvey, 1615 Mullin street were the best of friends. Now Irene is walking around all patched up with several stitches, and Eva is spending days at the expense of the city.
Miss Eva frankly admitted in the Northeastern Friday morning that she and Irene always had been in wrecks. Irene had been coming to her house more than usual. The strange thing about it was she wound invariably pick those times when Eva's husband was at home. Irene made one of her calls Thursday while Eva was engaged in preparing the supper in the kitchen. Hearing things unnusually quiet in the dining room, Miss Eva looked in to see what was going on. What she saw was enough to cause her to throw herself on the wind, and a pair of knife and start to work on her culter.
the husband who was the cause of all the trouble, thought it best to leave until things had cooled off. This cooling off was done in the Northernestern where the inexperienced spent the night in separate cells. "Your Honor," said Eva, "it had enough for a woman to take your husband on the outside, but when she compes in your home, she little too much." Well, said the Judge, just because she cut you out doesn't give you a right to cut her up, so I am going to fine you $25 and costs.
Devon Thornton, 1209 Myrtle avenue, was inhaled in the Northwestern police station on a charge of non-support of his wife and two minor children. Mrs. Bessie Thornton was the direct cause of the halling.
Don't Blame Captain Brown For This
Miss Irene Was Too Friendly
Mrs. Thornton,
Good Prosecutor
do you live with?"
Thornton: "Why I live with my wife, Your Honor."
Mrs. Thornton: "That's just the trouble, judge, he lives with me alright, but when he has any money, he carries it to some other woman."
Judge: "What kind of work do you do?"
Thornton: "Judge, I am a chef cook, and work where there is always plenty of good food."
Mrs. Thornton: "He works where there is plenty, Your Honor, but he figures he can eat enough for the rest of the family, cause he pure don't bring any home."
Judge: "It is true that you are taking care of some other woman?"
Thornton: "No sir, my wife has never seen me with any other woman."
Mrs. Thornton: "I might not have seen you, but I brought along some one who has. Here's the man-you took her away from."

At the hearing, Bean asserted that he had come to Baltimore to find his aunt, Nellie Kayjay, when he had not seen for ten years. He did not know her address, never had he been in a place larger than Charlotte Hall, Md., and he thought most any one could tell him where his aunt
Before leaving home, he had been entrusted with a large pile that he was to deliver to his aunt, and in spite of the fact that he had drifted around the city all day in his search, penniless and hungry, the pie was still intact when he was arrested late Saturday night.
Schooling Slight
He stated that he had been given little schooling, about six weeks, or a year, and this at a time when he could do notnothin job as an orphan, he worked for a more than his board, who gave him little more than his board. The boy was turned over to the prisoners' aid society, who in turn, placed the M.C. to Sanders, attempting to find the boy a position through his employment agency.
