The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly DURKEE SENDS S. O. S. TO SUBORDINATES FOR LETTERS COMMENDING HIS ADMINISTRATION Alarmed By Increasing Public Sentiment Howard Prexy Humbly Begs His Officers To Write Him Letter Of Recommendation—Dean Miller Gets Greatest Embarrassment Of His Career-Compelled To Go On The Road At His Age Speaking For An Administration He Despises. By Alumnus In an heroic attempt to alloy popular agitation to dethrone Dr. Durkee, the trustees have decided to put him on the road to making a speaking campaign for Howard University, no doubt, to divert attention from Howard University and thus cool off the indignant colored people. "The plan involves relieving Dr. Durkee of details of internal adductions to the university, uniting his outstanding pulpit and platform talents in presenting the claims of the institution to the general public." For Heaven's sake: Compromise This is an ingenious stroke at a compromise with the increasing army crying, "Dr. Durkee must go!" The army will be forced of the trustees to withdraw him from the war centre, and an engeress to get him off, the campus where they have been sent to reason to be reopened and blundered will be repeated and new ones embraced. Hot Time In Old-Town The trustees have correctly visualized a veritable "hot time in the old town" for the fall or in the winter in the fall as academic president of Howard University. They are not over zealous about the alumni's allowed nicking campuses, but they disdain the parting threat of the students. They are not over happy about the attitude of the Negro students who now blinding forth from all quarters. Best Of Terms They are especially eager to represent Dr. Durkee and Dean Miller to the public as being on the very front of the campaign, he has denied that he ever called Dean Miller any unbecoming name; and now the administration has released a statement in which he many years, dean of the junior college, will be associated with Dr. Durkee in this movement". Change bedfellows have always resulted from politics. This is no exception. After striving industriously to put Dean Miller out of commission, and thus for succeeding in his campaign, he has silled with full satisfaction and corresponding distinction, President Durkee is now to be assisted by him on the national stage. Wonderful (?) Team Who knows but what such companionship may be the turning point in the life affectionate and dear? They surely ought to make it a wonderful team on the road; for Dean Miller certainly can help to be outwardly kind, but inwardly, Dr Durkee can certainly say it well. If they refrain from discussing purely educational matters, they may next year this time, "Kel" and "Jim." Alumnus To Keep On The best help, however, that Dean Miller can give Dr. Durkee is to run Howard University while Dr. Durkee is the director of the university. Meanwhile, ALL MUSS will plot on, telling the "trigly story" of the same institution, the real catastrophe of which will not be reached until Dr. Durkee is appointed. What are the details of internal administration. What does this sudden move impart? Some time before the expert sprang his findings upon the president, he was given attention to the rumored plan of appointing a vice-president to help the overworked president to run Howard University. The rumor was prevalent and even the name of a probable candidate for the plan. Expert's Advice The rumor was silenced by the administration's usual comeback, nothing to add but when the expert delivered his dissertation before the trustees, he advised that the president be pelled over the details of his research but when the "romantic story of Howard University" before the country, to secure financial aid, he told the bureau understands it, there are to be two persons on the road, one for publicity purposes on one for research, and the other to be translated into funds. The president is to have this second pleasant task. From the very beginning to the present day, it has been labelled for the first assignment. Drives Suspended In this connection, the expert advised that the drives for the medical and theological efforts connect us upon this publicity campaign for the university as a whole. As the president was to take such an action part of a Business Manager, or Controller, was recommended to look after the internal management of the university. The most singular fact is that before the expert made his report, there had been talk of appointing a new Controller, and his report, he recommend the creation of an officer to perform virtually the same work that ruman ascribed to the prospective vice- Only Extracts Too many of the expert's recommendations have coincidently too common.

Many persons are wonderfully competent, but they do not represent too closely the wishes of Dr. Durke to attest its independence. Has never been reported in its entirety. Only extracts, justifying certain actions calling for protests, have appeared in print. Why is this report guarded with such tender School of Medicine Moreover, the report, curiously ended his report by "commending the school of medicine by a competently trained group, prior to moving the school of medicine to the building" it happens that the Dr. Robert Josselyn Leonard, the expert, is head of the school of education, and the professor of professional interest beyond his sur- H. U. ALUMNI CALL SEASHORE MEETING Atlantic City, N. J.—Declaring the letter of Charles R. Brown, president of the R. J. Brown Board of Trustees, an insult to the alumni, and a challenge to all educated persons, George Frazier Miller, president of the University, a yesterday for a meeting of Howard Alumni, of the East, here Monday, August 31st. The meeting was held at St. John's Church, Ohio and Arctic avenues, at 10 a.m. A business session will follow in the afternoon and a mass meeting at nighther from all Eastern states to be present, have been sent out. George Brown, in his letter, replying to those opposing J. Stanley Durkee, head of Howard University, stated that the trusses were running the university and any oppose Durkee, despite any opposition. ey of the academic colleges is unqualified to say the least. Leonard Out Of His Depth Why should Dr. Leonard advise a survey of the medical school any more than of the law school or of the business school, his reason for calling attention whatever to the medical school? Surely, he had not been requested to survey it. He did, and with his qualifications to survey the medical school, and yet he made the recommendation quoted. After it, expert return required to his direction in New York, making it possible by his report to abolish two colleges, punish two deans, and destroy four将军. The president's ambition relative to the medical school, which is to receive next treatment. The excuse for disturbing that organization, the president's ambition, the expert recommended the survey. Hits Dean Balloch A reliable spokeswoman of the administration declares that the medical staff in the surgery which must be disbanded. The new pension law will extract the dean without pain, and some subpoenaes will be sent in outlines for those that are "stagnant." It will be worth noting if the dean's "stagnant" positions are identical with those who do not stand above freezing-point in the affections of Dr. Durkee. The prospective dean is already in training for his promo- Durkee's Pal To Be Dean As soon as the survey of the medical school starts, the writer will prophesy, what professors will give, uncover guess at the name of the new dean of the medical school. Until then, the reader must be patient, but think more and more of the strange features of the expert's report. If Dr. Durkee is to remain president of Howard University and is to relieved to be relieved to be going to relieve blink? That is the question foremost on the minds of the professors and the public. The trustees might attempt to persuade the unattended feelings of the alumni by giving such periodic control to Dean Miller, who no doubt will alternate on the road with Dr. Dur Who Believe Him Dean Miller is now a collegelegend, so he will at least be available for the position, unless Dean Miller will out a college, will be pressed into the breech. The reader should not feel too hopeful of this, so both of them may be eliminated from the guess. Can it be that the a trustee is actually to be appointed to this position? Surely not! Once before, he habituated of Howard University, a trustee aspired to climb on the payroll, but his experience was so unpleasant that the question of such Bap Two Schools It may not be necessary to give Dr. Durkee any relief. He ran two schools last year, and was recently reported that he gave a course in public speaking in the college. He has already established a precedent for being away from informative relief. This precedent may be urged for a repetition. Pulpit And Platform The whole movement to a prophetic eye looks as though Dr. Durkee is being greeted with success, from the difficult machinery of administration. His seven years of abject failure have entitled him to an easier assignment. He has discovered his pulpit and platform talents, which they at last admit are not alone sufficient for running a university. He is being placed where he may be able to teach and play. Dr. Durkee will now have a chance to demonstrate the qualification that won him his highly reiterative post in a profession he has never held as heralded as the man who could relate Howard University to philanthropic patronage. His opportunity has at last come. If he lingers on his job, the country will have a chance to see him as a money-saver. We doubt, however, if he will tarry much longer. Seven Years Wasted Instead of putting him on this publicity job long ago, the trustees wasted seven precious years watchdoging which is now mashed all out of shape. Too bad the trustees had not employed the expert seven years ago! What a change it might have made in the history of Howard University; so it not seen a bit trivially to the reader that Dr. Durkee has sat silent seven long years, without making any serious campaign for Howard University, and has to be aroused from his slumber by the prospect of the expert having the expert had not recommended such activity, which to be sure. needs more scanning than can be have been. Dr. Dunkirk's program? Feeble Impuls His impulse for initiating is feeble. Ideas of educational import have to be thought out for him and fed to him in baby fashion. For example, he has not yet been asked to answer these articles. He was advised that they would cease after one or two had exhausted the writer's system. Eighteen, however, have been hatched, and now it is unclear how university is saved. Circular Letter Dr. Durkee has been advised to pay attention to these cannonballs, so he is soon to break forth in the press, and this is his first chance to receive a circular letter to many of his closest officers, asking them to be good enough (not the exact wording), to write him letters expressing an opinion on a question with their several activities. Think of it! He is asking his subordinates to give him words of advice on what he sees he is going to send to the press. Letters Citing Out The reader is hereby warned that in the course of time, Dr. Durkee is going to publish a number of articles on his own or with co-ordinates, expressing their high estimate of his ability and showing the public how he has co-operated with the author. The reader, however, will bear in mind that Dr. Durkee has asked that such letters be written that he may be able to answer. Can any reasonable creature conceive of a step more stupid? Every subordinate will mark him "A" and every subordinate will mark him "B" he has been and will declare that he could not have been more cooperative. What else can any subordinate say under the circum- On His Knocs The most significant feature of these intimidating requests is the pathetic picture of the president now not been spontaneous, he has gone on his knees for it. He will receive same requests from colleagues, copies of letters written under his suspensions come from the pen only. There is never any heart in them. These officers have such a high regard for their chief and letters are necessary to express it, such letters should result from their intelligence or request. These new developments—removal from internal administration and a request for letters commending them are symptoms of Matter Much Worse Neither the road nor commentary letters from payroll representatives can stay, the inevitable fact that the men are making matters worse for the president. They have seriously handicapped him by not testing out his publicity qualities before no one else does, and that he awards the words for whose welfare he is going to solicit. Consciously or unconsciously, he has allied himself with a force of the press he gone into the field of Howard publicly before he put his hands on that fatal administration of the Nebraska governor. The Nebraska might have gone before both white and colored audiences with an appeal that might have merited interest and perhaps might have unlocked the doors of the White Press Against Him. It is, as even the press of his own people has ridiculed him for presiding simultaneously over a cultured university and a Negro-excluding institution. Sincerely white friends who take him seriously, take him seriously, and the colored people who place a premium upon self-respect are so bitter in their defenition of him that they are calling It will be difficult, really farewell, for Dr. Durkee to entrust his own work to Howard University for Negro students who are aspiring to the loftiest expression of manhood, when he faces the challenge of teaching Negro students in the Graduate Liberty. He fails to interpret right the significance of his Boston venues. Heckling In Store He surely will not appear before any colored audiences to appeal for the support of the administration. He can hardly be so scorceld of Nexon as to request them to request colored people to act on the allegations over rank insults hurled DEATHS INFANT MORTALITY HIGH Rudy Jones, 10, Children Hospital, Adelaide, 10, 244113 N St., nw, Minne Burs, 10, Childrens Hospital, Elliott Burs, 27, Emergency Hospital, John France, 80, Gallinger Hospital, Anne Henson, 70, 607 Coleln St., ne, Thomas Taylor, 30, 50th and Edes St., ne, James Mack, 37, 51, Elizabeth Hospital, James Nolan, 29, Georgeown Unif.

If he escapes heckling from a coloured audience, he must account for Fergus. It is an unpardonable sin for the trustees to drag Dean Miller in on the road. He is not a kee just to fool the public, if possible, that there is harmony between these two officers. Of course, Dean Miller is not a trustee that trustees maintain that his presence on the road will bencht Howard University. He must be loyal to the unit. Miller Comuelled To Go Many alumnt feel that Dean Miller should refuse to go on any such mission but the writer holds the point of view that the dean should in minor matters not but the will of his superior officers. **Up To Alumni** It is up to the alumnt, not to Dean Miller, to fight any movement that will withdraw him from the college. The alumnt are firm in their belief that he should resume the course of study away from him by the most reprehensible piece of artifice. If he must speak a word for Howard it must be in a way which he made, and not as an oomment under another dean. Greatest Embarrassment The beloved Dean Miller is about to suffer the greatest embarrassment of his career. He is to give an administration that is going to be required to go before his own people to ask them to protect an administration that is going to be required to go before his scholarship, and Negro manhood. He can make only a half-hearted appeal for the administration he serves. For Dr. Durkez's administration means disrespect for the Negro race. Approval of Dr. Durkez's administration means approval of race prejudice. It means an increase of segregation and older. Miller may be, he will have to do miraculous stretching to give publicity to Howard needs most now is peace from will have to confine his remarks to the here and now. Worst In History This is the quiet time in the whole history of Howard University for publicity. It is getting enough of it just at present. What Howard needs most now is peace from publicity. What Howard needs from Durkez's Regardless of the trustees' most happy and ingenious thought of rebuilding the institution by proof, for $10,000 he may use his pupil and platform talents, this justifiable fight against the retention of Dr. Durkees must be documented, whether on the road or on the hill, there can be no peace at Howard University. This result from passing over the internal management to another officer. To win the good will of the faculty, this assistant must be given the policies of the policies of Dr. Durkees. This would he his only hope of succeeding. On the other hand, he would come into a clash with Dr. Durkees. No Vice-President Needed Howard University does not need any vice president, or assistant to the president, or the chief affairs of the university. The presidents of many universities find it necessary at times to be away from their jobs, but do not need vice presidents. Forecast Scheme There should be no failful scheme to cover up Dr. Durkee's weaknesses by removing him from their jobs. The title is to be changed. Howard University must have for its president an educator and an administrator. It will be reckless extravagance to work for which one person is already being paid $10,000, especially the most recent economy mania that cast adjourn four college professors. If it is utterly impossible for Dr. Durkee to earn his salary, and indications have been pointing that way for seventy years, give some priority campaign, therefore, must not be taken seriously. One obvious indication from durkee activation from admin is that which have proved to be too big for his pulpit and platform talents.

Who's Who In Harlem New York City.—Negroes, already the owners of more than 300,000,000 really in the "colored Belt" of Harelem, now are buying as much new property as they can lay hands on. Meantime an exodus of colored people who are buying houses on the easy-vowment plan in Backaway County, Jamah and New Jersey, indicates that the prediction of E. von der. Horst Koch, president of the Harlem Board of Commerce, that the character of Harlem is about to undergo a tremendous change, is beginning to come true. Business men of Harlem now are realizing that the colored people are using a crowd-faced, purchasing property with the intention of holding out for big profits when the business and white investors start. Whether the "colored" capital of the world "with its population of more than 20,000 Negroes, will shift to the suburban or Manhattan or not is a question troubling many. Certainly the advantages of living in better quarters is attracting huge numbers of people. Young men of intelligence are reading fortunes out of the reality looms where buyers are purchasing small houses on the "so much down and so much per month" scheme.

It was filled with excitement that the demonstration was that of the other convention, the Sons of Norfolk, in New York on their way to the Star Casino for the annual Bull.

After she had taken Cardul a while, she writes that she "never did see such an improvement." "I suffered all the time and had pains all over," says Mrs. Hall. "I was so weak I could not walk. And my wife was flabby, I did not have any color. I had always been a very active woman—used to outdoor exercise, walking and going where I pleased, and to get down, not able to get myself a drink, was indeed a hardship. Nothing could help me, till I begged Cardul. The first bottle seemed to strengthen me, and I sent for five more. By the time I had taken these, I was on my feet, going around, doing my work, gained in health and strength. "I took two more bottles and I am well and strong. I can work my work, but I haven't had any more stinkness." Ask your drummer. NC165 Take CARDUI THE WOMANS TONIC Page Three Leaped to 85c. Just before the parade even these brands went up to $1.

HALL THE SEVEN, MYSTIC DEGREES DEGREE NO. 1 Provide yourself a place where you can sit quietly and comfortably each day at the same hour. This must be arranged to your own convenience. Qudely relax and affirm the following mantram for fifteen minutes daily for a period of thirty days, do not enter upon the next degree until you have thoroughly accomplished this one. Clearness is next to Godliness. The health comes next. A healthy mind and a clean body. Care in eating, both as to those things which makes to health, and the avoiding of such foods that unduly excite the animal nature in a man. These principles are required to an undefiled body, which is the temple of the Living God. Great restraint must be placed upon the passions and emotions which are of the Reth. When one naturally looks upon his body as the temple of the Living God, or of those Divine sparks which we call souls of spirit they have a right to be lighted, and of my enlightenment and unfoldment; and will have respect for their temples and the temples of their fellowman. They will respect themselves, will not be selfish but calm, kind and loving and unafraid, recognizing only the laws of love, which is the basis of all true knowledge. Hence the temple becomes the dwelling place of love, for love is God. MANTRAM Psalm 34:1-4.1 — will kiss the Lord shall continue he in my mouth. My soul shall make her heart in humble shall hear thereof, and be he. O, magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together, and let us deliver me, and delivered me from all my fears, and thank for deliverance for fear and worry.

SPIRITUALS EXPRESS NEGRO SOUL, SAYS SCHOOL TEACHER Page Four SPIRITUALS EXPRESS THE NEGRO'S SOUL Penn School Writer Says Authors of Songs Believed Implicitly in God NOTHING COMICAL ABOUT THE SONGS cording Folk Music Hampton, Va., Aug.—(A.N.P.)— So very often these days, you pick up a magazine or a newspaper and you see an article or a comment on Negro singing. Sometimes the article is a plea to the Negroes, asking to preserve or spiritualize the music. Then perhaps some man or organization is offering a prize for the best collection of stories and songs. One of the reasons for the renewed interest in folk music have come to realize the beauty and the true meaning of these songs. They know that to sing these "spirituals" and to talk about them will keep their beauty and Negro music is typically American music. It grew out of the lives of emplaced blacks. No one more in love and comfort themselves in songs as have the Negroes. The Indian is fest becoming an extinct, unemotional holiday. He offers in the time of trouble. The Negro who was brought from a distant shore and was planted in a terrible bondage song, yes he sang so found that the world had to stop and listen. Express Negro Religion These "spirituals" express the feelings of an impelledly in God, and who did not question his being. He knew that some day, God who sees everything as he sees it, He sees All You Do. He Hears All You See, My Lord's Riding All the Time," would make the burdens lighter. I like this little verse that says: "For in our songs we tell our wives, Our sorrows, and our fears; To a God who always hears." There is nothing comical about the Negro songs. There is a thought back of each song. The songs are full of real Christian sentiments. You may find a spiritual to fit practically every occasion. How perfectly simple Negroes expressed their sorrow in this "spiritual," "How Can I Pray, When My Heart is Burdened Down?" Then it is in this same "spiritual" that this beautiful prayer is offered: "Crown me, oh Lord, when my heart is burdened down." Communed With God In this "spiritual," "Steal Away To Jesus," Negroes see God in Nature when they say, "My Lord Calls me, He calls me by the thunder, the trumpet sounds within of my soul, I ain't got long to stay here." What is religion, if it is not the seeing of God in the everyday things? Negroes had, too, their songs to celebrate the birth, crucifixion, and resurrection of Baby Jesus. They all sang, "The Crucified M Lord," and "The Angel Rolled the Stone Away." During the time of hardship, is it not comforting to know that Jesus will complete for a while and communicate wholly with God? How much they must have helped each other, when they sang; Jesus, when they sang; Gui Got Jesus, where's a Great Camp Meetin' in the Promised Land." African Musician Alda Who would not have felt renewed in spirit when he heard this "spiritual"; "Let us cheer the weary traveller out of the darkness and also art in the songs of the Negroes as well as a great deal of heart. It has not ceased to be a wonder that music like this could be made by the Negro who knew nothing of the past, Baltham, a native of Africa, is now engaged in intensive research work, recording the music of his people in the primitive form, so as to preserve it for the world's future. He is now in New York, taking an advanced course in music in preparation for this work. He spent several weeks on St. Helena Island, collecting spirituals. He collected and wrote no music over a hundred years, but this book of spirituals has just been published.

Whether all of these demands for repetitions are sincere or not, it is difficult to say, but as Andy Gump says, "Applause makes the world laugh." It is difficult to like it, and the buyers to give it, so who shall say them may? "The Sky Raider," a familiar type of war story, seemed made to measurement on Monday.

Dr. Scholes is planning to have his books pub- lished in the United States. Egyptian Scholar Another interesting colored person I met in the Museum was Prof. A. A. Chinapin, of Egypt and Zanatari. He is muscular. He is interested in images and several geologic ones. He is a Civil Service examiner for the British Government and lectures in the schools. During a conversation at tea he asked me to tell me often after the examinations in October he was planning to take a vacation in the United States. I have also heard the names of dozens of hers who are among London's leading physicians and laborers. Musicians American Negroes here are mostly in the musical and theatrical. Among the number I have set so far are Messes, Turner Layne and Johnstone, John Payne, and Pierre de Galluix. Born here but of American parent are Musis of Musical Shakespearean actor of that name should also have the pleasure of meeting. Layton And Johnson Messes, Layton and Johnson have been playing in the London Music halls, a new one each week, still they continue to be one of the most popular teams on the stage. I heard them recently at the Victoria Palace Theatre in London for encore after encore. They sing each night at the fashionable café de Paris, as well as over the radio. They have also sung several times for the Prince of Wales, the Duke and York, and other members of the orchestra. They recently estimated that the pair was drawing $6000 a week. John Payne is a harbiter, who is well-known on the concert stage in America. He is one of the finest interpreters and singers of Negro spirituals I have ever heard. He is the most famous functions of the life here and receives a high sum for each earlure. Regent Park Road Mr Payne owns a fine home on Regens Park Road where he lives in principle style. He is also building a summer home at Rottingbean. It was a guest at his home where I had a regular American dinner—needless to say what that was. One thing I miss is my good eats. Present at at this dinner was Lady Mary Cooke who has created a great treat of Lay's and has done a translation and interpretation of the spirals for the benefit of French audiences. Miss Aldridge Miss Aldridge lives in a charming Loma on Redford Gardens, Kensington, is a gifted singer and composer, starting her career at an early age, she was one of nine students selected by the famous Jenny Lind to study under her. She proved a Lind's own hand testifies. At present she gives vocal lessons at a figure that would be considered very high even for America. Her compositions are popular the radio and at the moving picture theatres. Among her compositions are "Three Little Pigs," "Assyrian Love Song," all of which are published by Chappell & Co. of New York City. Miss Aldridge's music room is filled with moments of her father—the consumes in which he played钢琴, medals, presents, and letters of congratulations from such as the Emperor of Austria, the King of Austria, and the president of Switzerland. Great Maryland She also showed me many news papers clippings praising her father. It might be well to remind Negro Americans of the great Marylander as I will quote from Le Nord, a Russian paper of 1868, which says of him in his favorite role of Othello: "No sooner did the Moor make his appearance than I felt myself I confess it instantly subjugated not by the terrible and menacing look of the here, but the naturalness, calm dignity and by the stamp of power and force that he manifested and of which he also seemed to be ignorant contrary to the customs of great actors who very often on the stake appear too much pleased with themselves."

But under that calm, air one foresaw and forbode the thunder, thought quiet now would not tarry to break out; it was the only one asleep which even when asleep commands respect. At the first words he pronounced "I forgot theatre, the actors and even Shakespeare. What above all that characterises Aldridge is that he produces his effects more by the exposition of his face than by the words he utters or his gestures. They say he is not handsome. I find it impossible to give an answer to this question. I saw only on his brow that In Royal Academy Miss Aldridge's picture was recently pointed by a vice-president of the Royal Academy and is hung in the Academy. And speaking of pictures I am reminded to say that on Oxford street, the heart of the shopping district, is the photograph of a Nebraska prominently displayed in the window of one of London's most famous photographers. This Nebraska woman, who formerly lived in the United States, and is now a student here, imagine a similar thing on the Avenue or Pennsylvania avenue.

He has long been one of the leading agitators for justice to the African native, and is the author of several books on Africa among them being "The Path to Independence" Africa, Shave or Free." It was a great pleasure to meet him as I had quoted from both these books in my "As Nature Leads." Mr. Harris told me some surprising facts about slavery, which still exists in many parts of Africa, and which are still in the native territory. The natives in these regions, he said, are forced to produce the cocoa, cotton, rubber and other products essential to continuance of white civilization. "The dividing line between forced labor and slavery is a very thin one," he said, and in most Colonial territories compulsory rests on the labor of domestic slavery. It is thus imperative that immediate action should be taken to secure the liberation of all shaves." As to the South African situation, Mr. Harris foresees secession from the British Empire. The Bourbons there he said, would never be content until they had the black man completely in their possession and bilt—the Colour Bar Hill—by which they had propose do so was recently defeated in the South African Senate. Failing to get their way legally, he predicted that the "crackers" of that region would demand their independence perhaps as they did in the 1864 in event of a successful break away from the Empire, Mr. Harris predicted that that would bring about the final triumph of the South African native since the white man would not be allowed to superior numbers and survived power of the black man. Speaking on the color situation as it affects the Western Negro, Mr. Harris deplored the fact that Americans had introduced color discrimination in England. In England, the Colonel, who his utmost to get Negroes barred from the hotels and other public places.

The Serenaders were organized in Washington and filled dates in most of the exclusive cafes of that city. At the beginning of the New York environment, the director found that dance devotees in New York required different music from that which Washington did. However, after a study of the situation, the leader says that he and his players are equal to the situation.

ONDON JACK JOHNSON IS BARRED IN MEMPHIS Ex-Heavyweight Champ Kept off Stage By the Police Authorities ACTION TAKEN AT THE LAST MOMENT nival and Dodson's Show By Jack Carroll Memphis, Aug.-Jack Johnson, ex-world's heavyweight champion, was not permitted by the authorities to appear at the Palace this week as advertised. The notification was not given Mr. Barasso, the house manager, until his moment crushing film and the patrons keen disappointment. However, the manager immediately got in touch with the manager of the T. O. B.

Williams The Ventriloquist My visit to the Dodson World's Fair shows proved that performers were right when they said that there were many talented people connected with carnivals, Charles Williams, a ventriloquist, with the outfits he wore in the best country if he was coached by Johnny Woods or Rodgers. For voices, I never heard such strong sets of lungs. "Catches" Good Dancer Miss Mary Thompson, with the Dodson shows, is one of the best dancers, it has been my pleasure to see. When I asked her why she did not join the company of playing one week and loading the next, and then never being paid for what she did, if Sandy Burns or Hilly King could see her work, that would sgle it. The owner of the show shows' no need for the lowest salary is $2). They are all entitled to what they get. Twelve People Carried Four musicians are carried, and there are eight people on the stage.

DAY — SATURDAY een Page Six FLOWERS GETS SHADE OVER ALLENTOWN GAN Georgia Deacon and Pennsylvania Boxer Put Up Greatest Fight Ever Seen in Mic FANS PRAISE BOXERS FOR GREAT EXHIBITION per He Has Ever Faced Grand Rapids, Mich.—Deacon Tiger Flowers, of Atlanta, and Allentown Joe Gans, of Allentown, Pa., weighing 108 and 154, respectively, put up the fastest and most scientific box contest Friday night at Romano Athletic park that has been seen in Grand Rapids ring in years. There was not even a suggestion of a dull moment during the thirty minutes of pulling in which Flowers was falling away with both hands a in Harry Greb, while Gans blocked and coolly awaited openings, which were instantly taken advantage of. Flowers led in number of blows landed, and was clearly entitled to the decision had one been called for, but he was given a real fight Gans seemed to study his man in the first two rounds, and in the third began picking openings to slip thru bird, clean and straight punches on an opponent so elusive that the does not seem to be any time during a contest that he presented a statisticary target. Gans Improved From the third round on Gaps seemed to improve with each round. He held the Atlanta Devon even in the closing session, which was a wonderful round, and drew round after round of cheers from the crowd. Tiger began using a ripping right upward in the sixth round, and in the seventh and eighth rounds, used it very effectively. Gaps seemed to excel it in the ninth round, covered it with his left crosse over his right in such a way as to shake Flowers to the toes and arouse the crowd to the highest pitch of excitement over the possibility of a knockout. Tenth Is Thriller In the tenth round they weaved around the ring, toe to toe, and punch for punch, which was a style of milling which Gans seemed to revel in. Tiger to elbow, which was milling which contained as much fast, clever, and scientific boxing as several rounds of the average battles between highly rated men. The pace was so fast in the early rounds that it did seem possible that the game would dip up during the fight, yet the pace seemed to become faster as the contest progressed, until in the last three rounds, it seemed to rain gloves. Tiger Flowers lived up to the reputation of being the most clever of the game has ever known. After it was over he manfully gave Gans credit for being one of the greatest boxers he ever faced in the ring and credited him with carrying a waplow in either hand that jarred him from the toes of his tips of his toes whenever it landed. Receipts Low Weather conditions were not altogether favorable, many in the crowd wearing overcoats and other heavy wraps, to the envy of others not so thoughtfully, as their light as great as usual when boxes so highly rated are plitted in a main event. Several highly rated white boxes have run into light crowds here in ygae as well as in other places to be as well paid as they were accustomed to. Neither Flowers nor Gans showed any such disposition last night, although both have bouts ahead of them in which their end of the receipts will be receipts last night. Praise Boxers At the crowd filed out of the grounds all praised both Flowers and Gans, and almost everyone seemed to express a desire to see Gans box again against a man more nearly his weight. It was the heaviest Flowers has ever been in the ring, due to his being out of the ring for several weeks after a streptomycin campaign, which he fought once or twice a week for a year or more. Even despite the fast pace, neither man slowed up under it, even for an instant. Mullins Waits New York, N.

The following men of last year's squad, some having completed their college work, will not appear in the squad and will this year: Eighty-Four, Morgan, Ball Taylor, Anderson and Brown. New Backfield The loss of these men necessitates the development of practically a new backfield, with a considerable line reinforcement of Baltimore, Morris and Butts, Brown. It is expected a backfield combination will be found quite equal to that of last year's, else and Taylor are recognized as fast and dangerous men, white shoes and black pants, yet to be demonstrated. In common and Butts Brown, a duet of first class interferes is found. Callaway, Henry, Grasley, Wilson, Lewis, Givens, Myers, Wese and Bryant, are expected to develop new great lines in the school's history. Formidable Line Calloway, Grastry and Wilson are expected to form the nucleus around which the Lion's line will be built. Tad Lancaster, on left end, needs no introduction. He is captain, and promises to outdo all past performances. The right end position will be a bone of contention for many aspirants. It is hoped that a worthy successor to Crudum shall be found. Coaches Optimistic The coaching staff feels optimistic over the chances for another championship eleven. Lincoln has always done her best when seemingly against greatest odds.

Incompetence was given as Rube Foster's reason for letting four other "umps" go. Brown Wins In New York, Gets Bert Williams Trophy Wollridge—Says Tally Holmes and Ted Thompson Were Not Missed The most encouraging demonstration in New York tennis was the fine orthodox driving selections of a 6-year-old, Russell Smith, of Chicago, 1924 Junior National Champion, who found it difficult in the sent-finals of the men's singles on Saturday. He was advised by taking the scabs of none other than Richard Hudlin, of the University of Chicago and New York, whose favorite stroke art- Russell 1954. Junior National Champion, who found himself in the semifinals of the singles on Sunday. He advanced by taking the scalps of none other than Richard Huddin, of New York, his boss at Chicago and Teddy Gomes, New York's favorite stroke artist. The West seems set against the Eastern vance of all corners. I am sorry he could not have put out some pad ballons. Tells and Tech Not Missed. Thily And Ted Not Missed The success of another Junior Champion, Alban Wollridge, of Washington, in reaching the semifinals with a patterned backhand off the ground. Woolridge's overhead and service were sure point winners. The absence of Talley and Ted was missed, only by the E.R. Harris and E.R. Harris steel racket driver, kept the tournament free setting the National honors. Miss Isdore channels three times National Woman's title holder, had a bad case of overconfidence in the first round and lost to Oma Washington in the fifth, with defeated twice this year by Miss Lada Ballard of Germantown, whom I predicted last winter, after seeing her drives off the backhand in the gymnasium of the V. W. G. A., would most likely win the 1925 Women's championship, was unable to compete in New York. Out Of Balls It was too bade that the tournament committee ran, out of balls, and so had to disappoint the audience, and Miss Channels and Miss Washington's fine head work and determination to win. is demonstrated by her pulling away from Miss Channels in the third quarter, and Miss Channels at 40-15, on her own service, needing only one point to even up the muggh. This newcomer is a dangerous and formidable tournament player because she had brains and nerve. She is not afraid to hit Players Attend Dance Miss Lillian Lillen of North Carolina, put the South on the map by defeating Mrs. Seams and her ladies double partner, Mrs. Dorothy Radliffe Ewell, all in the same day, teams with Mrs. Junior and Mrs. Washington of Philadelphia. Several defeated players were seen at the dance. Wednesday night. One prominent New Yorker left at eleven when we promised not to expose him publicly. R. Smith Woolridge, Juddin, Miss Channel, Miss Hines, Miss Washington, Miss Junior, Mrs. Conic, and Miss Nicholson, were all careful to retire each night between 2 and 10 p.m. We are coming Father Abraham! O, I forget, though, another hopeful one ate a sandwich just before his match and lost, after winning the first set. Baltimore On The Map Miss Nellie Nicholson of Baltimore kept her hometown in the running in spite of the absence of the No. 13 in the finals to the finals in the Ladies Singles. She was no respecter of persons, especially New Yorkers, putting our favorites, Mrs. Madison, Mrs. Leonard and Mrs. Conie. The on. New Yorkers left after the war, and Mr. Ship of Chicago, got through driving, he ball to the corners, were E. Satch and myself. Sportsmanship Mr. Johnny Wilkerson will in all likelihood, be again awarded the silver loving cup for good sportsmanship. Notwithstanding a few close points and several high side balls that refused to behave on the high side of court No. 1, there were no appreciable delays in our match which was extraordinarily close, though not so close as to be dealt. Mr. Wilkerson will surely receive no deniable for staging on the court and patiently walking while Mr. Salch went away to tell the officials how to conduct his matches among other things during the third set of the mixed doubles encounter or battle, I should say. Milady's Slipper I do not think any of the bad decisions were caused by the ground committee who hold the dance on the center court the night. Not being present, I could not spend several times on my own match. I saw the bill stick in one of those holes made by milady's 4-inch heel, at the open air dance. But on the whole, Mr. Spooner and Mr. Edmunds, owners of the E. & S. Tennis rounds, in the Harlem on the Eighth avenues, have made every self respecting citizen and lover of this high class game of tennis, their eternal debtor. Along with the Ideal Tennis Club on 138th street near avenue, they have made New York first privately owned tenis facilities. Officials Pralscd The New York Tennis Association of which Mr. Donald Creighton is the president, and the splendid tournament committee, headed by Dr. E. W. Davis, have made a great success on the success of the game in America. Dr. D. Iverson Hoage, the official referee of the New York and National tournaments, has gone a long way ahead of past efforts in schedule on the court, posting himself one day in advance. We knew it could be done, and we congratulate the good doctor on behalf of the tennis fans who pay their money to see certain players particularly, and are amazed at the success, conneting players of years gone by.

The Giants nosed out the Sox in the opening sette, 4-2, but the Bees were blanked in the final 11th, 5-0. Sox Out-Hit the Giants. The Sox won the Sidesiders in the first game, 2 to 3, but Bose Brooke weakened in the sixth, and three runs crossed the rubber. Until the eventful sixth, McClure nushed an almost flawless game, holding only one run. The Giants blew blood in the pitch when White doubled to right field. Holloway made a brilliant try for the catch, but it was behind his reach, and went for a hit. White advanced to third on an outout by Cooperings, and scored Mustaine and the winning of his game in his own hands in the fourth and rose to the occasion. With no rides and Jeffries on third, and Lay in second, McClure, Foe and Clark, McClure, the next Latter entered to center, scoring two runners and giving the ball one run lead. McClure Weakened In the fateful sixix with one out, McCullum walked White. Cummings made first on his hunt, when staircases he instigated to throw the ball. Days who run to cover first and both runners advanced to the McClure throw with Clark. Brown was in free pass which filled the over second, scoring White and Cummings. Marcel was hit by a pitched ball, which again loaded the bases. Rather than let McCullum take himself by the Lobot, Bettit to the ball, Lobot forced Marcel at second, but Brown scored on the Robo Leonard was retired at first. From then on Bettit pitched a masterly game, holding the Bees hitless. The Sox hung up another tally in the seventh when Bettit scored from third on a sacrifice fly by Holt, the rest of the game Bettit refused to allow the Sox a tie blow. Strong In the right cap. Strong was master of the situation throughout, only allowing four hits and handing out two goose eggs to his opponents "Red" Grier was touched for nine blows, four being double Masters. Strong had the distinction of not only using Lloyd a hit, but fanning the "Old Master" in his first trips to the bat. Both games were featured by sensational fielding on the part of both teams. Luuds Lindy made a brilliant one hand catch of Clark's liner, and covered second before Day, who had hit for two bases, could reach the sack in a double play, unassisted in a sixth inning of the game. Marvin pulled down with one hand another lined up Clark in the ninth.

ROBER SPORTS MIRROR BY AFRO SPORTS EDITOR SPORTS MIRROR BY AFRO SPORTS EDITOR FDGAR BROWN—1925 SINGLES CHAMPION Our prediction is that Edgar Brown will be the national singles tennis champion of the American Tennis Association before another issue of the AFRO-AMERICAN, that is if Brown is still a full fledge member at that time. Altho Brown might not be the most popular player. It is an undisputed fact that he is the best player that the race has produced. He is one of the very few that plays the game for what it is worth and not for the social side of the sport. Brown plays tennis 12 months a year, and 365 days during those 12 months. He plays tennis like De Hart Hubbard goes in for jumping-to-win. He isn't a summertime or fair weather player either. You can get more tennis out of a good book by note duthers in one hour than on a court in a month without the use of the book. Brown has hitched his tennis wagon to a star with Bill Tilden as the limit. We think when American tennis history is written 20 years hence, the name of Edgar Mendelson would have played a compulsory part in the development of the sport. The game hasn't been developed yet, among our people. It is too much of a social gathering. THOMPSON VS. EDGAR BROWN Brown won't have much opposition to the grandstand, but it won't be he will most likely prove the hardest. Thompson seems to be in better shape here we agree with Brown) and we best.

Thompson beat Tally Holmes in Washington and the playing of Huddlin and Smith in Wilmington wasn't impressive, so according to the dope Ted and Brown are scheduled to play the finals. On his last visit to Wilmington, Brown and the writer had a friendly exchange where he gave the great court game. At that time we did not agree with the ex-champion who came back and gave us a severe roast-ting in his next article. Our contention was that most players were not familiar with the fundamentals of tennis and had not developed to the point of trying the driving game. A little preliminary training as were Brown's game calls for speed and ability to start or arrive at the outset, and keep up play at it which seems to be the method that wins Brown by producing results and RESULTS are what count, whether in terms of journalism.

He is also said to be the re-incarnation of the incompatible George Dixon. Suggs has won 55 out of his last 56 stars, his only set-back in over two years being an adverse decision on a questionable foul in a bout with Chick Suggs. He won seven round of a scheduled 10 round fight in New York on May 23. On July 2, Suggs fought Kansas a return match in New Bedford, Mass., and won the decision.

This exchange will most likely take place next year. Beckwith started the season as manager of the Sox and excelled Charleston and Blynd as a box office attraction. The two players and occasional fielding were the topics of conversation in baseball circles. The Sox former manager was extremely temperamental and was relieved from the management of the club several weeks ago and requested he use in several brawls the impires and players that kept the club owners in hot water.

It is nicely worded, and seems to have had its effect. As far as one can see with the naked eye, all The greatest amount of interest is centered in the light for the Exalted Rulership. At present, before the "dark horse" makes his appearance, it is boiled down to three men: Mr. Finley Wilson, of Washington, D.C., the editor of the Washington Eagle, Mr. J. Dalmus Steele, the Exalted Ruler of Manhattan Lodge, of New York City, and Mr. J. Finley of New York City, No. 10, the Exalted Ruler of Mid-West Lodge, No. 223. The present incumbent, Mr. Wilson, is waging a great fight. His office is well equipped, suits which show for themselves. He has set up more lodges, and has filled the treasury with more money. He has given aid in order to fact. If he stays in for a few more terms, it will be necessary to send some, stick up men in on the voyage, and there are other men in the order who wish to be set in at the "plio counter." New York Campaign Steele of Manhattan Lodge, of New York, is next. Mr. Steele is waging a regular fight, bucks abound, and all the tricks of the seasoned politicians are being used. His candidacy is going good, with plenty of pep, attention and determination inculcated into it. Steele's Barrier But it must be confessed, he has a barrier over which it is hardly thought he can get. Steele indicted him in his home, some unkind people are circulating the rumor that he is a Westerner, that is to say a West Indian. This should not count against him as no man can determine where he is. For West India islands are nothing to be laughed at, for Columbus himself gave them consideration before he left. But you know our people, and when they get anything in their head, it is almost as hard to get there. Mr. Steele must do a ceil, amount of suffering. Last, but not least, we have Mr. Watkins. Mr. Watkins seems to be a refined and cultured gentleman, and is pressing his suit. His campanion is on the hands of Chandler Owens, an old war horse, who will either have to have results, or will take them. Richmond Nervous Up to date, the situation is about as has been pictured, but it seems to me what Col. Henry Lincoln of Georgia tells the good white people of Virginia, are commending to be slightly nervous.

In the year, 1848, to be sure some dispute occurred between some of the trustees of Bethel Church, Philadelphia and the Rev. Mr. Cornish sent them by the Convener, to dispute undertook to "oust" the minister, and lock the Church doors against him. The case reached the Supreme Court, and the pastor was sustained. The "opinion" was handed down by Chief Justice Gibson, Feb. 2, 1850. A paragraph, both interesting and illuminating: "The Doctrine and Discipline of the Church, as set forth in the published exposition of it, is fashioned in a great measure after that of the Church, in England and America, in which the election and ordination of the priesthood by the General or Annual Conferences, the ordination of them by laying on of hands of a Bishop, and Elders, and the fixing of them by the presence of the ordained points, the last of them a distinctive one. "It is the rock on which the Church is founded, and on which it has prospered. Remove it from the Methodistic. The election and ordination of elders, and the fixing of their appointments, are regulated by articles written fundamental. The respondent, therefore, is the legally induced elder in charge, and the trustees who were expelled by the presiding of the Delegation of the Church, have no standing in court." GEORGE F. BRAGO.

The fatal altercation took place about 11:30, and according to Jas. Goodwin, 24, nephew of the dead man, he and O'Connor were sitting on their front steps when two men came down Forrest street from Orleans and started up a private alley along side O'Connor's home. Notwithstanding the fact, he said, that the attention of the men were called to the fact that the all was private, they insisted on going, and when O'Connor remonstrated with them, one of the men whipped out a weapon, thought to have been a razor, and slashed O'Connor in the neck.

The shooting took place about 6:30 p. m. and before the couple were aware of their danger, a succession of pistol shots rang out and the distraught soldier even screamed wife. A man, who had done the shooting, disappeared down a side street and made his escape before anyone in the vicinity of the distraught soldier got a good description of the man. Man Thought Dying The wounded man and woman were rushed to the Johns Hopkins Hospital, where he was treated by Coleman had sustained a serious abdominal wound, from which he was able to walk. Coleman was wounded in the ditch and is considered out of danger. An old lover is thought to have been killed by someone to whom statements were made. Mrs. Coleman stated that prior to her marriage to her husband, she was a patient of another man, but could give no reason for his having sought their lives. WHITE ROWDIES START HARLEM PARK BATTLE YOUTH RESIST EFFORTS OF HOODIES TO DRIVE THEM FROM PUBLIC GROUND Following a number of disturbances, caused, police say, by white youths in the neighborhood of Laramie Square, who have been living in the park at night, a riot was advertised Sunday night, when a number of boys fought back at their house in the battle, in which nearly a hundred youths took part, some and missiles were used, caused a riot in the neighborhood, in which send in a riot call to the Northern-western police station.

Welcome Barclay Today the flag of Liberia flutters the American flag from the afro-american building. It was placed there Wednesday. Ahmed to Mr. Edwin Barclay, secretary of State in Liberia, on a government mission to this country, and being his stay in this city, the guest at the Liberian Consult General, Dr. Fred Lyon. Despite the flag at the consultate, the afro-dies very probably the only Liberian flag in the city, and unable of government circles, the only flag in the East. It is a pretty tribute to the representative of a fine nation, for we want the Secretary to know as he puts the plant of this newspaper at the hand of black America greets in hearty welcome always to the ambassadors of the African Republic across the seas. Mr. Barclay was selected for this secret mission of his government, because of his peculiar fitness. Like President C. B. D. King, J. Secretary, Mr. Morris, and Mr. J. F. E. R. Johansen, who visited this country on a diplomatic mission two years ago. Secretary Barclay is scholarly and quiet. No presses heard his mission to the White House, and no flock of secretaries are engaged in sending out propaganda designed to influence the minds of the American people. Nevertheless the impression remains the African visitor is here serious and delicate business, England and France, Liberal neighbors, in recent years, have consummated favorable moments to teach off Liberal territory. One more move, this time on the part of France, is now in progress. French schools according to African disasters in European papers, are occupying Liberal towns and refuses to evacuate. Liberal papers report the territory sized, not especially valuable itself, but the French action is part of the move to keep conditions on the frontier so unsettled, that the migration of African migrants from French Africa to Liberal territory will cease. The natives, these papers say, are satisfied to remain with that figure he is satisfied with in Liberia well, but will in all his mind, he will be satisfied to remain a dependent African citizen rather than an independent Liberal citizen. Mr. Ward will give his session his first trip to Paris. Evidently he was not successful there, for he comes to America, according to these papers, to ask the United States to impose French pressures, and to negotiate such American investments that will make America even actively interested to see the Liberal integrity is not violated. None of this has come from the Secretary of State. But for Obama, the United States is Monday, this mission to this country would have been shrunched in life. He does not talk. He is a man of independence and freedom of the black republic in the world. America welcomes him, and prays for him.

A. White and a young woman companion, on Madison avenue, does nothing more than call attention to the public beaten, the slain, the sloner, Chas. D. Gather, and Capt. Charles Lastner, of the Northwestern police station, the humiliation will not have been suffered in vain. The dentist escorted a young woman to her home. The police officer, John Plea, according to his report, saw nothing unlawful in the scene. The companion appeared white. Before she could alight, he put a flashlight in her face, and asked her if she could see the policeman. She rested the policeman's conduct, the couple was arrested and later fined for disorderly conduct. Both Captain Lassner and Commissioner Gattel were arrested, the policeman acted within his rights. The Afro-American says not only did the policeman act illegally, but he also published him, superior police officials are also acting without authority. If this is not true, why did General Galufter refuse Dr. White's attestation in public, where the policeman could be cross-examined, and where the young woman, as well as Dr. White, might know that Dr. White made a mistake by permitting Magistrate Reholter to try the case. The dentist had no experience in dealing with criminals, so he had to send the downstairs to the Criminal Court, where he might have obtained a fair and impartial trial. Had the dentist employed the same error would not have been made. PETER B. So the golden opportunity is lost to have the judges of the Criminal Court bounded regulator of the police, under which they may determine whether occupants of automobiles are arrested. It does not prevent the Afro-American from asking the public, why was Officer Picha transferred to the Madison avenue beat, where he there? Was it for attempted graft? "I Subscribe" Baltimoreans a few years ago subscribed nearly $50,000 to Victory hospital. The committee was able to collect just half of this amount. Approached during the campaign several hundred persons said, "subscribe" willingly and signed their names to cards, pledging themselves to $100. They changed their minds later and bought an automobile, a car for the wife of a lawyer, and a project petered out, leaving the committee with $25,000 on his hands. The same situation confronts the trustees of Januaile hospital in New York, which has current liabilities of $80,000 and $50,000 in unpaid subscriptions. Mercy James, president of the board, invoked the aid of the courts in collecting the subscriptions. He says: "The courts have repeatedly held that joint subscriptions for a specific purpose and in consideration of the co-operation of others both, in payment and accomplishment of certain duties, are legal and stable contracts. We have no desire to press any person who may be unable at this time, to pay his subscription, but, the trustees have when they who sign subscriptions and are able to pay, shall be permitted to jeopardize the interests of charity to which the subscriptions belong. Some of the trustees maintain that this proposed legal action will turn many of its friends into enemies. The majority however, rightly contend that those who subscribed and pay are after all, no real friends." AFRO HISTORY News Items Selected at Random From Old Issues of the AFRO-AMERICAN.

(Preston News Service) Mr. Richard Washburn Child, who used to be ambassador to somewhere, has an article in the Saturday Evening Post for August 15 on where ambassador is called "The Great American Scandale. Why We Have Crime." The primary cause of crime, in which ambassador is IMMIGRATION. Hear this new and super-heated crime chaser "Lacking any sufficient stationary base in the United States, nevertheless it can be shown EASILY enough that one of the first causes for our crime is immigration." He said—"Lacking any sufficient information on the subject nevertheless it can be shown easily enough that the man in the African empire ideas of Marcus Garvey." Most anyone who reads Mr. Child's article will wonder how an intelligent man can sit on which he lacks sufficient analysis. Mr. Child says further that he is not talking about immigrants as a North Nordic immigrant, the "hunky" roundheads of southern Europe, and not the blue-eyed, fair-haired gods of navia and Germany. The south Europeans are the ones responsible for the majority of our 11,000 homicides and massacreeds from the north of Europe are all good law-abiding children of the Most High. Thus intimates brother Child in brother Curtis' weekly Slushus "I have collected from five American cities the data on 125 (mark you) persons charged with 125 random uses from each city in a specified period. The total of white persons so charged not foreign-born or childless, 125, and 125. A study of totally arrests for serious crimes in American cities of the character of New York, St. Louis, Detroit, Detroit, and New York, the native white population, being about 75 percent of the total, is chargeable with only 50 percent of the arrests, our 125, and the jump from the matter of the proportion of crime to the proportion of arrests, which, of course, is not the same. In Child got the data on 125 persons charged with murder or man-slaughter. And, yet, there were 125, the Negro has suffered from this same sort of investigating.

He was commander of the army in the South during the Civil War, the Civil War the first southern colored regiment. He could not get white recruits and was surrounded by a multitude of abducted Negroes who were idle but unaware of public opinion, he organized a regiment and was called to account for it by the Secretary of War. He replied that he had instructions to employ the Negroes in the invasion of public opinion and the suppression of the rebellion; and declared that the loyalty of the Negro was beyond question. HOOSIT! WHEN (By William D. Robinson For Preston News Service) When all our little bits of happiness Are woven into one eternal dream... Free from nangs and tears and bitter sweat... Make our path thru life so dreamy seem; When all the beautiful in man and beast Each noble trait, each love compelling lead. When all good wishes, pleasant laughs and smiles Bleach with our sweetest music and song; And, softest sunshine breaks in golden smiles; O'erhealing once for all the night of sun. And when as one in God-Son unity, Humanity in one brotherhood stands up When Love and Life have overcome cruel Death, Humanity vanquished 'Error's fatal night... Peace, overwhelming all with soothing She will whisper rest to those who strove for Rilht. And God shall give to them the once lost crown of manhood and true womanhood.

The true between the good and The value and important Study of Negro Life and His is essentially prophetic. Its event of race-wide interest a The reputation of the race suffers seriously by the suppression of its virtues and the exploitation of its faults. The treatment which the Negro receives depends largely upon his reputation. The true historian holds the balance true between the good and the evil. The value and importance of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, while seemingly historic is essentially prophetic. Its tenth anniversary marks an event of race-wide interest and of nation-wide importance. The Association for, the Study of Negro Life and History will celebrate its Tenth Anniversary, September 18, 2014, at the University of Washington, D. C. The program covers a range of interesting topics which will doubtless attract large audiences of those who may have general or specific interest in the study. During the past two decades a number of institutions have arisen among Negroes for the general advancement and improvement of the several distinctive roles of endeavor. Among these may be mentioned the National Association for the Advancement of Negroes, whose province is the political and civil rights of the race; the Urban League which deals with social and industrial conditions in the large cities of the United States; the Negro Life and History, devoted to the study and preservation of historical knowledge concerning the Negro, during three centuries of civilization; and the Negro Sanhedrin, whose comprehensive plan still awaits fuller study and exploitation. Dr. Carter G. Woodson The completion of a decade furnishes opportunity for the statement and analysis of the place and importance of the Association for Study of Negro Life and History. This institution is the lengthening school of his conception, inspiration and development are due to the output and out push of his personal genius. Mr. Woodson, by his own independence, has his way up from the coal mines of West Virginia, through Berea College in Kentucky, and then through Chicago University of teaching experience, to his own state. He won appointment as teacher in the Phillipine Islands, through competitive civil service examination. Dr. Woodson taught for a number of years in the Dunbar High School of Washington, and rose to the position of Manual Training School. From this position he was chosen as Dean of the School of Liberal Arts of Howard University, which he resigned to the State College of West Virginia. In the mean time, his great purpose was taking shape, and directing the curriculum. He was to turn his historical training and preparation to practical racial account. His education of the Negro pro-terroristism program which covers that field with adequate research and scholarship. Several other treaties of historical character attest his industry and historical accuracy and approved method. Ten years ago, while yet a teacher in the public schools of Washington, he launched the journal of historical journal, which covers carefully selected and accurately worked out topics of historical interest, touching the Negro peoples forty volumes have been issued, which have been preserved forever, and which have justified its existence, and should it wind up its affairs with the Tenth Anniversary. Dr. Woodson's life and career would have abundantly justified its existence, and showed every indication of long continued and increasing usefulness. The matter of collecting and collecting exact information on the race problem has just made a beginning, and hypothetized his career upon this project. He is a bachelor of fifty with a self-imposed bachelorhood. Byron says that he who has wife and children has given hostages to fortune. Had Dr. Woodson entered early upon the blissful son of matrimony, it would have been impossible for him to have made the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History a success. Now that the institution is well established and placed on a promising way, it will brilliant future, here the gift of him, the gift of single bliss for doubled blessedness. Sacrifice begets recognition and inspiration. When great foundations saw that Dr. Woodson was making such great sacrifice for worthwhile work in behalf of educate and extend knowledge, it affects many interests, but American scholarship, substantial assistance was forthcoming which has enabled the so-called great work to what proportional to the importance of the undertaking. It is to be hoped that these grants will be bestowed upon large, Philanthropy can hardly be bestowed more efficiently or upon a more deserving cause. It is to be hoped that the people themselves should rally more generally around this important enterprise. Membership in the Association means, a contribution, however small, to the lasting advantage of the race. The social importance of history, or had I better say the importance of history, is not necessarily appreciated. When us a school boy, I read the history books, they were wholly concerned with the past, with the past's personages. Spectacular performances monopolized the entire field of recorded actio. The ordinary activities of ordinary people did not rise to the level of historians' con Decenial Of Negro History Founded By Journal Of Negro History Founder Made But in more recent years any get or performance that has influenced the course of human progress or the history factor to human history. If no single slave ever rose above the bunnumbing drudgery of chopping and plowing, less slavery and the slave can not be omitted from any adequate and trustworthy account of the civilization of the South, and indeed, of the Negro in history. Mr. Woodson has somewhere made a sharp distinction between the Negro and the Negro in history. Too often the mountain peak must suffice for the whole landscape. The infine small ennumeration are what the infine small ennumeration are what his after all depends exploiting the dominant features. But not so with modern scientific beef steak caused Napoleon to lose the battle of Waterloo may have contributed as much to the course of European history. Duke of York who was the spartan culinary beneficiary of his momentary dullness, fact that Henson the black, accompanied Perry to the North Fole, is not merely a curious occurrence, but the part played by the black attendant has its important and essential place in polar discover. Negro Race In American Drama In order that history may be complete, every contributory factor should receive its proper place and importance. Our great historians of the past should be looked upon as historical artists rather than as scientific historians. Mr. Wooden is concerned in digging out every significant roll which the black race has played in the great American drama. This makes American history not only full and complete, but true to the actualities of historical happenings. There is a great conspiracy of silence to ignore the best deeds of the Negro, and to exploit his imperfections and misleading. If a Negro takes the world's sprinting record, the fact is exalted while the race is ignored. But if a Negro commits a crime, its heinousness is enhanced by reason of the color of the criminal. The reputation of the race suffers seriously by a violation of its virtues and is a violation of its faults. The treatment which the Negro receives depends largely upon his reputation. The true historian holds the balance true between the good and the evil. Indeed the true historian is not so much concerned with the good or evil of an act as with its effect upon the after life of mankind. The deeds of Judas are as full of historical interest and meaning as those of John. The language of the to-beconist, Mr. Woodson "smokes out the facts." White Race Glorified; Negro Debased The Negro's pride is humiliated when he recounts the great drama of this continent and finds that he recorded no honorable part in the great war, and that the race is glorified, and the Negro is debased. The effect upon the spirit of Negro youth is deplorably depressive. The worth while deeds are described to white men and none to his own color and degree, what inspiration can we hope to impart to him through education. We become the tendency towards race belittlement, that even Negroes affect to be ashamed of the share, which the race has displayed in the story. The Negro students are, or used to be, ashamed to study about themselves. How much more enobling to read about how Achilles injured the hero of the story of the prince of "Steel Awakens Jesus"? But thanks to the purpose of Dr. Woodson and others of like spirit, all of this is being changed. One's own story is naturally of the color of steel on alien. Every Jewish boy's heart a little sharper when he reads of two part the Jew took in this or that person. Not a single fact creditable to Jewry is ever allowed to be forgotten or to fall into oblivion. The same is true of the women, of the christians and of every substituted element of our cosmopolitan population. Study Of Negrd The value and importance of the Association for the Study of Negro life and History, while seemingly history is essentially prophetic. His value and advantage will not be fully appreciated at the present day. The further we are removed from them the more important they will become. One can easily imagine the historical student two hundred years from now, willing and valuing the enthusiasm of his career to discover facts and concern which we now find indifference. No section will be in existence to come that to Negro life this concern fifteen years trustees undertaking Negro alluring field. The a compulsory task add length to the valuable purpose. Mr. I. C.

Unfortunately however, sore Negroes are taking credit for the present attitude of these North Africans and even suggesting that Ab del-Krim is finishing what Garvey has started. It may however, interest some of them to know that the majority of the Negro slaves (from which we are descendants), were transplanted into this western hemisphere from West Africa, particularly Nigeria, where the serf was so strong that most convenient for the slave ships to enter and leave without difficulty. Nigeria produces one fifth of the world's production of tin. With a population of approximately twenty millions, 50 per cent of the people are mohamduads, a spawning of Christians and pagans compiling the other ten percent. It is very unfortunate note, however, that only a small cent of these people are educated. They are divided into tribes and is said to speak more than 500 different vernaculars. The most widely acknowledged written language is called Yurosa. It is still more regrettable to note that not even 4 per cent of the people are educated in their native variegated transformed into this African Empire, of which some persons dream, but the people must first be emancipated.

She will be glad to answer in the column a question about hair. *Ambition*—Superior hair about the face and arms is quite common a lection with ladies of our race. Light skinned persons who have a heavy growth of black hair are particularly affected, because the hair are more easily seen. The men wear preparations depliatories and sulphur concoctions, but the same effect can be gotten with an ordinary safety razor. The result is that the hair comes out thicker and coarser with each application. The reason for this is that the men are the normal healthy and the hair can continue to grow unless the root is destroyed. There is only one way that we know, that hair may be moved safely and permanently. The use of electricity, either by the needle or radium, will turn hair into a chemical method in a less and costly, so be that you have an expert in the line perform the operation.

Furniture Hub Co. 710-712 Pennsylvania Avenue --- 1 Lane spent an entrancing afternoon with Natalie that lapsed into the evening. They chatted of Parisian days; Castle served a chilled salad, biscuits and honey, and during the evening Lane arranged a miniature stage at the end of the drawing-room, using the portieres for a drop. His well cut coat and his forceful physique made a pleasing picture against the maroon skin. He finished the evening with a sketch that he had written himself, a barbous bit. It was the solilloney of a murander of the high seas. He perched himself upon the pink damask arm of a chair using it in lieu of a coil of soiled rope on the deck of an ocean trump that was called for in the scribled stage directions. He caught a silk scarf from a table and twisted it around his gold bracelets over his gars and his cynical and faintly cruel cast of countenance here out the character he was enacting. His lines sparkled with false brilliance. Among other shallow follows like himself Lane was accredited with cleverness. But on close observation by wiser eyes his sketches were found to be, like his letters, mere blobs of ink on fanciful colored paper. There was a fine dash, an elegant line, and about his writings, but nowhere in them was there any substance. This lack was impressed upon Natalie, but she enjoyed Lane in spite of it. She felt at home under his frosty banter. He seemed like an old friend and in his knowledge of gracious old-world customs, dear to Natalie in days now gone, he came very close to her. He cleared the stage by returning the chair to its place. "Our guests are an innovation we given the sketch a new title for this occasion—a plaque in paradise." "This is no more paradise than you are pirate." We may both be nearer those two than we, either of us, have any idea of. "It must be great fun to write sketches." "It kills time. In the grim grapple time before the old beggar kills you!" "Dear me, what an extraordinary way to look at life." "Don't you have problems? Don't you study over them?" "Never—never have problems. I leave those for dull fellows. Look at all the wizened old boys who spend half centuries delving after knowledge about life and having secured it use it all up trying to find out what life's about. No, it doesn't pay to be weighty." "But if one skims over the surface much is lost." "You forget that cream lies upon the surface." "One can't live upon cream. Chow can't eat it at all. It makes him dreadfully ill." "Does Chow have problems?" "He has one now--you are sitting on his pillow!" It was impossible to be serious in the proximity of Lane. He had a way of winning his companions to his view, point which was no viewpoint after all, as it pointed nowhere and one more move such delightful webs of chattered banalities all about the heads of his friends that they lapsed into good-natured enjoyment and rode aimlessly along on his side of high spirits. After his departure stately constructive his Lane was not slow to discern that Rod was a true artist while Lane was nearly all sham. The conversation of Lane left one be wildered. He rushed madly down pathways of the mind whacking off flower heads of thought with a ruthless stick of pen and he depopulated dreams, and cut at the roots of visions. It was quite the reverse with Rod. Encounters with him left one feeling vital, purposeful, singing with fresh currents. She wondered what sort of a man McClellan had taught Rod and was splendid. It was only nine o'clock when Lane bade Natalie good-night, and swung off down the Drive. It was too early to retire, and she was about to chow bounded about on the floor at her feet, barking and be- gling. She put him on his leash and went out to walk. She strolled up and down the quiet streets. As she walked in the shadows. She smiled through the film of night. CHAPTER VII Monday night brought both Rod and Lane to the Cartwright door. They eyed each other in the hall and Lane assumed a bored expression upon being ushered in not the drawing-room with Rod. Rod sat down quietly. He asked Lane how he was hungry. He was hungry to very different circumstances. Pails of paint were far and away from this momentous evening. Rod looked well in his dark serge. Lane eyed him askance and he asked how much paint could be he. He had preceived Lane into the house, so the latter was aware that Rod had not arrived in a car. Lane concluded he was nobody of much account and he spent the interval sitting about in his mind for a few minutes, and would flatten Rod out upon utterance. The minutes dragged and Natalie did not make her appearance. Lane sauntered toward the piano and played a few desultory chords. He ran into a light waltz, instantly Rod was on his knees while he surrendered before Lane offered grudgingly. "Playing at one of the theaters?" he asked. He watched Rod in silence, admiration finally driving the boredom from his eyes. "You've headliner stuff in you!" Lane offered graduatingly. Think so. I've much to learn yet. Murray will in all places. Day something Spanish and I'll show you a new dance I've originated. In the middle of the dance Chow bounced nobly into the room. Natalie followed him to lay a warm hand in Rod's and to look with a surprised glance at Lane. She was sorry. Like glance at Lane. She was sorry. Like glance at Lane. She was sorry. Like glance at Lane. Lane caught the disappointment in her look. He concluded Rod was somebody after all. "I've brought something for you. CREAM OF NOVELS "Veiled Aristocrats" BY GERTRUDE SANBORN A Story of Two Races I've left it with Castle to unpack. Here he is now." Rod finished as the door opened and the stuff form of the butter made its appearance. He held a daimay, glazed figure in his large hand. "Where will you lift it, Miss?" "Set it on this stand. What a lovely bit!—what is it, Rod?" "It's some of McClellan's work—it's wired—" She cleared a place among the books and papers. "I went today to find a suitable base for my rose lamp-shade and was unsuccessful—this is just the thing!" Castle set the figurine down carefully, a trifle embarrassed at having cradled its nakedness in his great hands—how knew he it seemed to be lightened to go undrained in these days, not only in art, but Lord Arry, even in the balloons, now no hooks in the gowns, and cigarettes, shocking sights—Castle's reverie was interrupted. "Oh, that's jolly!" Lane bent over the figurine. "That's the work of a master—how skillfully it is colored—the cloud of velling—the calyx formation sweeping upward to disclose the budding figure—really, it stands paradoxical—real work of art! European artist!" "No," Rod answered. "Do let us try my shade. There is a plug under the rug to the left." Over the little figure Natalie adjusted a pink silk shade fashioned of innumerable curled silk petals. Rod groped about under the rug. The light shone suddenly. Natalie clapped her hands. "I am charming!" "It it charming!" Red and Lane stood in an admiring circle before the airy nymph. "I'm curious, Roscoe. Who's the artist?" "Carr McClellan." "Mmm. Dont know him. Where is he?" "Chicago." "Really?" Rod reiterated his statement by a nod. Lane persisted. "Studio downtown?" "New Michigan near Thirty-fifth street." "What! In the Black Bolt?" "Yes." "Well, by all thats curious. What's he doing there--studying types?" "He is a type." "Beg pardon-" Lane felt Rod's reticence and was determined to shutter. "McClelan is a--mulatto." Lane suppressed an oath. "A nigger! A nigger--doing work like that--never heard of such a thing--why, that figure has soul behind it--you can't tell me a black man is capable of that!" "Why not?" "Why, they are only half human!" "Are you sure of that?" "Can I see? The new scum of the thief around doing jobs no white man would touch! Look at the hootbacks--ditch diggers!" "No, don't look at them if you want to judge the educated Negro. The ditch digger no more represents the race than a highwayman represents us." "Well this talk about educating the Negro makes me sick." "Educating him only makes him worse." "You might as consistently say that religion makes a man worse!" "You can't convince me there is any good in them. I don't want to mix with them." "One loses many things by aloofness." "Nonsense! I like to be exclusive," blustered Lane. "There's nothing in that," commented Rod. "nothing remarkable about an exclusive man." "Say there is! It requires dignity and polite, to stand away from the crowd." "Well, it all comes down to one thing!" Lane said hotly. "would any of us marry Negroes? Would you, Marry Night?" "I am not in love with one—how can I tell?" "That's just the point," Rod added. "we haven't the decency to marry them—we don't play fair—we mix with them—we are not too high and mighty we are not thousands of the country's best white men and the finest these musulmats whom we ridicule and scorn. We are two centuries late with our patter about anti-immigration. America ought to be ashamed of her own dark men, not dark women, dark man or let her alone. It is the only sane and humane program." "You haven't much pride in your "You haven't much pride in your race!" anneed Lane. "I have come to the point where pride of race seems to me a soundful thing since we bolster it up with lies and deceit and absolute immorality. How many years is pride going to stay fresh and fair under such conditions?" "Oh see here—it's always been a white man's world—it always will be," yawned Lane. "It's not always been, and it's not all ways going to be. Anthropology will talk back about that." Lane shrugged and intimated by a bored droop of the eyelids that the MME.

In a few short years our data brought us to a point where progress that outlides the actions of any other race in a like period in the history of the world. And this progress has been made in the face of terrible odds." He exploded Lane, "what progress got to do with people together in segregated districts where their very appearance automatically produces a paralleling slump in real estate values?" Talk sense, sense. "We've taken on the elevated and I know in about your rotten tiger tigers." "You don't know anything about them because you don't know that right here in *Chicago*, the Negro have founded hospitals, clubs, libraries, day nurseries, social centers, day nurseries, for the elderly, for the aged, and a reliable insurance company.

Do you think the progress of the church necessitates its opposition to science? These questions answered for the AFRO by leading scientists and thinkers of the country...The brain of America. They are: THE REV. W. RUSSELL, BOWIE, rector of Grace Episcopal Church, New York. EDWARD A. ROSS, Professor of Sociology at the University of Wisconsin. Their views will be given in a series of articles, compiled by Thomas L. Labney, especially for the APRO-AMERICAN. You can't afford to miss a single article. Clip the whole series and have Americans best minds consider a solution of the quarrel between science and religion. --- ARTICLE V. "The church survived the scientific proof that the earth is round. The Bible says it is flat in a hundred places. The church will also survive the demonstration of the evolutionary origin of man."—Prof. Edward A. Ross. I wish with the reply from Rev. W. Russell Bowie, rector of Grace Episcopal Church, New York, Basked used to teach theology in St. Paul's Church, Richmond, Va. Dr. Bowie says: "There can not be any conflict within the wholeness of the true revelation of the spirit that controls our universe, and in-so-far as science makes true record of the facts which this universe discloses them, ultimate disarmony begins them. "I think it has often been true that students of science have less their religious interest and that this has often been fault of the religion of religion." When leaders of the church, as too often been the cause, insisted on the fact that the church naturally alienated those men whose scientific method brought them face to face with evidence which they were unable to accept. There is however, no ultimate reason why the students of science should not be of all men religious, for the science through which they study science properly conceived, inculcates is the same spirit which in the moral and spiritual interests of such people one to find his way made great. Evolution Established "The general theory of organic evolution seems to me extremely valuable for the mass of observed fossils, which geologists, paleontologists biologists, etc. have recorded. The former account seems to me more pronounced. In regard to the question, "Does the progress of the church go back to the Creation?" Dr. Rowe replies: "Most obviously it for the creature already indicated." Get Checks For Flagging Train Lekaton, Ua.

He is a scientist of high importance, and he spends time in scientific research, especially in the field of Sociology. In his letter, Prof. Ross says: "Replying to yours or recent day, I wish to express my opinion as to the conflict between science and religion. I will say, however, I am a believer in evolution, forced to it by the overwhelming accumulation of that evolutionary derivation of man is merely a speculation, ought to acquaint themselves with the enormous amount of evidence which has come to light in the study of man's artificity of man on this planet. Cannot Resist "In the association of human products and remains with very ancient geological strata proves an altogether unsuspected antiquity to our understanding. The older men are of a much lower type than the skulls of any existing man. It is hard to resist the conclusion that the human race has been evolved, presumably from that branch of the primates most life Tennessee Ignorant "The attempt in Tennessee to shackle the teachers of science in this matter is equivalent to the significance of those best pretend with which we presumably kidsthe to be right. "Such an endeavor to shackle science is an old story, and it will not succeed long in Tennessee, as it not succeed within three years within three years it will be apparent that the Tennessee attempt has done more to bring the evidence for mom's evolution from lower forms to the public mind than has been inscribed in the prevailing years.

"The Sun Do Move The Earth Am Flat" John Jasper, The Unmatched Philosopher And Preacher, Who Lived In Richmond 40 Years Before The War, And 40 Years After It Why Advertised Goods Sell There are many reasons why advertised goods sell best. In speaking of nationally advertised goods, for example, travelers are able to purchase the same brand of cracker in the East as in the West in the North as in the South—and all of them are equally good and crisp. The same principles apply to all merchandise and goods made or sold locally. The buyer knows that a local advertiser is ready to stand behind his product because his advertising is proof of his confidence. The advertiser is known and has pledged himself to stand back of his merchandise. He has given his printed word to the general public and must keep it. It is the mark of good faith and is recognized by buyers of the world over as such. Almost without exception, all of the improvements in packages or other containers have been the direct outcome of advertising. EVERYBODY IS GOING ON THIS OUTING CHAPTER XVI From The Story of John Jasper By Wm. F. Hatcher I looked Jasper over with a critical eye, and before he began to preach I had his age down for sixty-two, but when he began to career over the pulpit I knocked off ten years. He had an unattractive budge on his face around his cheek-bone, but his head looked like an alpine offfit. His eye, I noted, was an all sufficient redeemer, and his flush and laugh would cover acres of ugleness. His whisks were decidedly undistinguished, except in their cut, and I marked his blood as unmixed. He dressed in a manner best suited to prevent people from seeing his form and alert action made him attractive in the pulpit. 46 Years Old During the sermon he had something to say about himself. "I'll be sixty-six years old on de foth day my dj coming ly. I set out to seek de salvation my gw Myord in 1832. I have never been in any school, but I spent some months trying tter learn tter learn. I was connected in Marse Sam Sam's tekakur factory in disity on de 25th day uly 1832, and from dat day I have known d'at Gord had antidict me wild de Holy Ghost ter preach de Gorsplil uv His Son." oN Doubt "You couldn't hear Jasper say that and doubt. He seemed to assert a mastery over me from the start as to his sincerity. It was impossible, moreover, to question the honesty of anything he said." He made another remark at the outset which made everybody smile, but it was not a frivolous smile by a long shot. He said he was so ignorant when he first felt he must preach that he thought maybe God wouldn't want a man to preach who could not read, and that maybe the devil had put that notion into him. Then he stopped, and with a decided smile, he said, "I got a notion dat et de debubil put dis thing in me, den he was a bigger fool dan I ever thought he eud be. I dont think he hav made much by setting me out ter preach of he did for I done knocked his kingdem hard blows many a day, but ater more dan forty years servin my Gord, I know who I her willeyed, I feel dut whenever I stan up in His name, de Lord is wild me." After these remarks he gave out his text and started in. Started In "If I don't prove ter you by the word uv my God ter tue that des sun do move, den I ergee never ter proach agn es like the sun I sack hody I sack hody lady an' gentman present dis eventn't ter say weolder wat I say is so or not, arter dey hear' wat I hav ter say I'll speak out'n Bibul, an' I want everybody ter mark de words that I dig' em', oure bound the dasper had a keen eye for the sounds. He did things according to the book. He had fereted out of the Bible every passage that bore upon the motions of in a set of tract. A copy of those the sun, and he haw them a purpure passages he in the穷 reads who could read and wished to follow him. Stumbled Over Big Words He stumbled considerably over the big words, but he skipped none, and kept along, and when he would read a passage he would ask to be corrected if, in any small disease, he could not but be. He was greatly set on doing clean work, and not seeming to be willing to fool anybody. Fun Begins And when they had prayed, the place was, shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.—Acts 14:31. The text this week was supplied by the Rev. John Stanley, pastor of the Mt. Olive Christian Church. The text next week will be given by the Rev. C. P. Bishop, pastor, Giles M. E. Church. him with this passage as if it were a broad sword. He would charge upon his antagonists, shouting and laughing, and whacking them as he wint until he would close that part of his work in a storm of chompease. How he did move the people? He moved with the stride of the con Hard To Follow I am not skilled in religious reporting and cannot undertake to follow Jasper in that fusillade of comment and criticism with white, for a full hour and a half, he bore down upon his adversaries, crashing and scattering them as he went. A few of his sayings, however, however grave they may appear, like fames, may help outsiders towards a conversation as to what Jasper is after. His text, so far as I could see, was not within ninety-five millions of miles of the question as to the movement of the sun. It did however, suit exactly for that part of his sermon which had in the Lord as the defense of his ancient people he vivid in picturing ancient Israel, traveling through the great wilderness, and in showing how God delivered them from all their fears. Orator His wonder as an orator broke out in unmeasured splendor as he portrayed the power of God at the crossing of the Red Sea. A pathetic spectacle were the Hebrew shaves, as they fled out of Jerusalem by the tenth day of the Pharah, or the Lord's people, as he called them, got hewn up with the sea in front of them and the great armies charging in the rear, he actually made the people cry in dread and terror lest these refugees should be totally extinguished. The scene was so lifelike and overmassing that swept and swamped women were wild with actual fright. Moses Came Then when Moses came; when the rock was stabbed over the sea and the waters, as if appalled by the presence of the Lord God, began to part and roll back until they left a clear passage between:—why everybody could see it. It was as plain as a great road in the broad day light, and 'as the Hebrews, with revived hope, in solid columns, moved across, his people took the they literally shouted the children of Israel over. Jasper himself was leaping over, cheering, shouting that not to be afraid, and telling them that God would bring them safety through. It looked to me as if half of the women were clapping their hands to dancing, and the other half, we were rolling off the benches in the excess of their rapture, as the last one was doing, we were dazzling out upon the banks. Egyptians Come But instantaneously Jasper brought revulsion of feeling, he discovered the vast host of Pharoh marching with music and with banners through the parted walls of the Red caa. They were coming too! After all the people had shouted too soon. The triumphant Egyptians would soon be upon them, and the chosen of the Lord, after all, must be destroyed. The king. The host is harmless, three-fourths now, getting greener and neater. "Oh my God," Jasper cried, with a shriek of despair. "Help! help! or They people will be blotted out." Sobs And Groans All over the house there were sobs and groans and cries of fright. Once more the hand of the master was upon them, and swapped them as he would. Then with a shout he cried: "De waltas de de Red Sea are fallin'." De partial watters rush into each udder's imbrace, Oh, ye heavens, shout an' let de earth be gled, let de earth be gled, deep griege and cry: De Lord Good is man uy war. De Lord is His name." Tell de tidin's. Shout in everywher dat God hay' delivred His people." MONEY RAISING VITAL ELEMENT IN THE CHURCH "SYSTEM" FAILS TO DEVELOP CHARACTER Quindaro, Kansas. "Money raising is the vital element in the African Methodist Church," declared Bishop W. T. Vernon in an article released to the official church organs last week. His statement created a sensation. "I do not expect this article to contribute anything to make me popular. I rather expect to become more unpopular with certain elements. If bitter criticism, abuse and other fault-finding results, they will be nothing new and new nothing, nothing the cost. I know I am right and that is all that matters. I have decided to have my say. I love this church and must, if I see danger, sound the alarm. The fault is not with any one element or group. We are all in a measure products of a system that does not assist in the development of manhood character. Mert Does Not Count In efforts for the best for himself, and those dear to him, the pastor is being impressed that worth and merit no longer count, that what he needs above everything else is the fever of the "ring." To secure this code, men are at times temped to admit that their conscience does not approve. Of times the "machine" or "gang" is in control of the conference and unless a man will do their bidding he is marked for shaghter. He rebels inwardly; but his wife and children must live, he has amabilisitions, he desires promotion, he seeks an appointment that will enable him to acquire a home and lay aside something for the day of retirement, some relief for his loved ones when he is gone (knowing our brutal neglect of our superannuates and the widow and orphans of the preacher); hence he often other jobs in wrong doing or winks at the same. Godly Judgment What is the remedy? Let it be understood that merit, faithful service and loyalty alone, constitute two open sesame to consideration and we are on the road to better days. When the average preacher feels that his appointment is the result of the "Godly Judgment" of the Bishop he will go gladly wherever sent willing to suffer and do his best. Leus stop "suspending the rules and making leaders" by acclamation. He will "favorites" and "gangsters" will not approve this—but this is right and just. Remove every Bishop from the district to which he was assigned at Louisville when we meet in the General Conference of 1928, shake his assignment papers, and then work the years following. Legislation providing that beginning with the general conference of 1932, the bishops shall rotate by Elijah Church Districts thus: Provide that the bishop of the first district will go to the second district, and thus to the third district, and thus down to the eighteenth, let the bishop of the eighteenth or last district, go to the first district. I would exempt the West and south African work from these provisions. The bishop of the last district work should be assigned there. We, as bishops, are resistant then the ministers under our supervision raise increased "Dollar Money" and other monies. Unless this is done we are considered failures at the end of the year. The bishop is the vital element in the A. M. E. Church. Big debts are everywhere. Churches are burdened, church schools cannot pay first-class teachers regularly and no one calls a halt. Each man from top to bottom is trying to outmaneuver him in pressure, what it takes out of him, or out of the people. There may be exceptions, but this is the rule. **Little Progress** This false conception of success has brought its sult—the General Authority—the pressure on the bishop, the bishop places pressure on the pastor, the pastor in presses leaders, officers and people—What is the reaction? The people discouraged, disgusted, fail to join our churches, or in many cases, drift away. Our numbers are growing, our churches are being "split" and "Community Contest" are springing up in many places out of our membership. We say "Let them go." we can get others—the great A. M. K. Church does not need them, etc. We all know better. It is like "Mad Monkey" who fiddled while Rome burned. What is the remedy?—Cause to make the "dollar mark" the only criterion. Let duty and not who shall occupy this or that place, be the one who serves it; and last not least, by far, have a system—a Budget System. The release in part, states: Merit Does Not Count Godly Judgment What Is The Remedy? Little Progress Baltimore, Md. maken e all God dor of by the The sermon week's sermon York City. I am far gion.

Williamson. Next week's sermon will be given by Mrs. Elizabeth Howard. Evangelist of New York City. I am far from maintaining that science is a sufficient guide in religion. On the other hand if left to itself, as I fully admit, "it leads to bewitch the mind." I do maintain that scientific truth, even when properly appurposed, will compare at all, in its influence upon the human mind, with those peculiar and higher truths disclosed by revelation. All I contend for is that scientific truth, illustrating as it does the divine character, ought fan and feed the flame of true piety in the hearts of its cultivators. Therefore, he who knows mots of science, ought most powerfully feel this religious influence. Confined like the great mass of men to the outer court of nature's magnificent temple, but is admitted to the interior, and allows to trace its long halls, aisles and galleries, and gaze upon its lofty dome and arches.

Yet, I am sorry to say it is only a few gifted and adventurous minds that can live the life of a divine mountain, to catch a glimpse of the entire stream of truth, formed of the hermosa form of all principles, and flowing on majestically into the boundless oceans of all knowledge, the infinite mind. But when the Christian philosopher shall be permitted to resume the study of science in a future world, with Powers of investigation enlarged and clarified, and all obstacles removed, he will be able to trace, onward the various ramifications of Truth, until they unite in higher and higher principles, becoming one with all truth originally sprang, which it ultimately can trace. To trace out the shores of that shoreless sea, which it ultimately measures less extent, and to fathom its unfathomable depths, will be the noble and joyous work of eternal ages. And yet eternal ages may pass by, and the work yet undone.

Saturday, August 29 TRADER CROSSED OCEAN JUST 57 TIMES Robert Broadhurst, Retired In London, Discovered By MOTHER NATIVE GIRL FATHER ENGLISHMAN His Firm Successful Until Wrecked In The Panic Of 1906 London, England, (Br Mall). If there is one man in all London, who is an authority on West Africa, (that man is Mr. Robert Broadhurst). For over 50 years, he was interested in the shipping of West African products and share his retirement, about five years ago, he has ever worked for the good of the West African Cause. Born of an African mother, and an English father, in Sierrie Leone, Mr. Broadhurst received his early education at the Frostown Grammur school. Later he was sent to his father's people in Chesire, near the city of Manchester to continue his education. Upon the completion of his education, he returned to Sierra Leone and there entered his father's business, with which he was connected, even after his father's death, until 1853. At this time he withdrew from the shipping firm to start one of his own in conjunction with an English firm. For his great success the trailing of his business in India rubber equaled that of most establishments engaged in that business. In 1906, however, following the financial crisis of the United States his company suffered financial reverses, which forced him to close his doors. Since that time he has been employed as agent and advisor, by some of the largest firms doing business in West African production in West Africa, from Calibar to the French Guinea. Then came the war, and he returned to England. In 1916, he was employed by the Niger Company, as their agent in northern Africa, for all of their trading activities in the province of Nassarguna, where there were twentythree different tribes. In 1918, he returned to England to represent a West African firm him as London's London agent. His travel through West Africa has been most complete. His business has led him to cross the Atlantic between Europe and Africa 57 times in 60 years. He speaks fluently several African languages, including Mandingo, French and English. In 1850, he married an English girl, Sara Ann Carriage, by whom he had three children (two boys and a girl). He has been the oldest son is now employed by one of the largest trading firms in Africa. In speaking of the potentialities of West Africa, Mr. Groudhirst said, on spite of many difficulties his philippines are improving. As natives are becoming more enlightened, there is hope that in the near future a plane will be reached on African traders will be able to market their own produce in foreign markets. Resources Unlimited "The material resources of West Africa are unlimited. Nature has produced edible kernels, and oil, which are foodstuffs for man and cattle; maltoghua, hides, minerals, cocoa, and numerous things which are the absolute necessities. Mr. Broadhurst is an authority on the characteristics of tribes which inhabit West Africa.

ASSOCIATION TO MAKE A BUSINESS SURVEY GROEP FOR THE STUDY OF NEGRO LIFE AND HISTORY TO COMPILE DATA The Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, which will meet in Washington on the 6th and 10th of September, will devote an entire session to the discussion of the Negro in business, according to announcements made this week. S. W. Rutherford of the National Benefit Insurance Company, will preside, and one of the results of the survey will be a complete survey of Negro business and establishment of a research department to guide the development of business in the race. Lacks Bellable Data To emphasize the necessity for this investigation, Mr. Rutherford mentions the case of the handicaps from which an insurance company recently suffered in extending its services to the forehand, said he, that company had detailed information as to the number of Negroes in business, the amount of business which they were employing, the use which they made of their earnings, and the like, that company would have been in a much better position to launch its enterprise than to invade the field, finding its way the best of the way, in a preliminary meeting, discussing this matter, a number of Negro business men brought forward information showing what the research departments of various commercial organizations were doing. They expressed their accomplishment that the Negro business organizations are doing such a little, while such large associations like the United States Chamber of Commerce, after investigating and periodically acquiring agricultural immigration, emigration, civic conditions in fact, reports on business in all its ratifications. The gentlemen specifically pointed out, too, that although these treaties so accurately describe their purpose, they do not specific information of special use to the Negro business man, who is largely restricted to his particular group. Because he occupies a peculiar position, he must attack his own problem in a peculiar way. Rutherford will join other noted men, who welcome the opportunity to take part in this survey. Mr. W. Gomez, of the Banker's Fire Insurance Company, who has already worked out some of such problems, will appear first on the program to show what such a company does, and how it may be worked out. Mr. W. G. Pearson, an educator and business man of Durham, will endeavor to show how and why business men often fall when they are compelled to proceed. He experience those who have gone before, or those who at the self-same time, may be attacking the same problems. Mr. C. C. Spraulding of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company will make his contribution to the discussion by showing the importance of pressing the new point of view in Negro business. He believes that in order to do one must know what to do, when to do, and how to do. If he is to meet the keen competition of the business men of today.

CLOTHING COMPANY TO ESTABLISH CHAIN Fidelity Ready-To-Wear Concern Planning To Expand Selling Field BUYER INVADES MARKET FOR FALL FURNISHINGS Conducts Stores at Raleigh and Winston Mills, N. C., With Growing Trade Ability to establish race concerns in the clothing field has been demonstrated over and over again. A recent case is the purchase success of the Fidelity Clothing Company of Raleigh, N.C. Brittan R. Pierce, Jr., and Max P. Frazier, President and Secretary, have spent several weeks in the Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York, and Chicago markets, buying the fall and winter lines for this concern. His success of the Raleigh store has induced the management to establish a branch at Winston Mills. Other branches will be established throughout the state, the officials say. The opening of the branch at Winston Mills is the result of the efficient salesmanship of Mrs. Mary McCullers, who, as saleslady at the Raleigh store, sold thousands of dollars worth of goods at Winston Mills. Her work will be rewarded by giving her in charge of the branch. According to Mr. Frazier, the store did a $10,000 business the first year and paid fat dillid to its stock holders. Remodeled and with a new line of show cases, fixtures and mesoning floor installed the prospect for the coming season is bright. EGG LAYING CONTEST UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND EXTENSION DEPARTMENT ANNOUNCES PRIME AFFAIR Sometimes early on the morning of November 1, an ambitious pullet will fly an egg and the race will be on between several hundred of Maryland's choice fowls, entered in the first long-distance egg-inlay contest ever to be held in this state, to be seaped, and the prize will be more than a thousand birds entered in this contest, and provisions are being made for the care and feeding of that many for the one year through which the contest will run. The object of the contest is to stimulate interest in better breeding, to seep the value of the value of standard bred birds, and aid in the production and distribution of better young stock, according to R. H. White, head of the University of Maryland. Each contestant must enter eleven birds, ten of which enter the race, ten of which enter in reserve in case one must "fall out." Weekly reports will be sent to the owners of the laying record of each hen, and each pen will be tabulated weekly. Information gathered out of the contest will be published for the information of the contestants, and poultry farmers, throughout the country. Poultry farmers will be accepted from farmers outside of the state, preference will be given to Maryland farmers. Any owner of fowls in the state are eligible and further information may be had from the university. Run Natives Johnsburg, Africa.—(P.N.S.)

Needs Hotel At Harper's Ferry That there is a great need for a hotel at Harpers Ferry, is the opinion of Mr. Shirley Johnson, of that city that the AFRO-MERICA has hundreds of tourists have passed through here this summer, says Mr. Johnson, and the cry has been that they cannot get hotel accommodations. May Start Move Interested parties have looked over several places where a good hotel could be conducted. During the last two years colleges of the community have furnished hotel accommodations for the large number of people who sought accommodation. But this service listed usually only two months of the year when the summer schools were in session and there is six months of good hotel season around Harper's Ferry. Many Tourists That there is a wide opportunity for the general hotel expansion among trade has been made evident this summer by the greatly increased industry. Business men will miss a great opportunity if they do not sense the possibilities of the money to be gotten from increased tourist travel. Divorces Instituted Mrs. Slonek feed 85 bright reeds.

Pullman Porters May Form Union Pullman porters, running out of Baltimore, when interviewed by an Afro-American representative seemed to look with favor on plans that have been forcipated to effect a union that will be affiliated with the younger generation of Labor. The younger men seem to grasp the significance of collective bargaining, and other benefits that will be derived from such an association. Some conjecture is left about the attitude of the older employees, but it is thought that they two will favor the union when some concrete plans have been presented. Chandler Owen, editor of the Messenger, has interested himself in the cause of organization, and called a meeting this week in New York of Pullman employees to affect a permanent body. It is recognized that the Pullman Company interests see that the union has other welfare agencies, but many employees feel that the benefits of affiliation with the Federation is needed.

Work, in his very interesting work, "The Negro Year Book," estimates the annual cost of sickness and death among Negroes of the state of Maryland and the City of Baltimore. Maryland, with a total colored population of 244,475, has 14,200 Negroes seriously ill but with a consequence of $1,570,000 to the above must be added the cost of doctors' bills which Prof. Work estimates as $2,650,000 annually. The number of Negro deaths, 5,193, cost $275,000 in funeral expenses. The State could save $4,500,000 annually if the proper sanitary precautions were taken. The City of Baltimore, In which live 103,825 Negroes, 6,500 are sick all of the time, with a loss in earning power of $860,000, which is increased by $1,300,000 in doctors' bills, and $138,000 in funeral expenses for the 2,563 black recoveries. It also stops the city from saving $2,500,000 that might be saved by proper sanitary conditions. These are 6 estimates—based on the figures for 1920—maybe too high, maybe too low. But the story has of them is worthy of a deep and serious thought. The Health Department says that the diseases which are exacting this toll in Baltimore are largely those that may be prevented by personal measures of cleanliness and hygiene. Estimate your own loss due to illness, according to the above; it may give you pause.

GOOD MORNING JUDGE The Afro Court Reporter When Jessie Dorsey, 1623 Vincent street, writes his autobiography, there will be two days happenings which he will call on the whole department to supply. These days were Thursday and Friday, August 20th and 21st, when Mr. Dorsey spent some time in the Northwestern police station, without knowing the reason why, after Mrs. Dorsey asked Mrs. Lucy Wilson, with whom he boarded at the above address, "Your Honor," explained Mrs. Wilson, "I received a hurry call while working that my house of boast-seeing and rushed home to find Dorsery raising all the disturbance. Before I could get half a word spoken, he knocked me in the mouth, and that's all I know." "Explain he rough stuff," de- matter, tell, Your Honor, the whole thing is news to me. You don't expect me to believe what that woman says, when I don't know anything about it." "Well, responded the Magistrate "I believe it, and by the time you get out you will have memory enough to believe it, too; $25 and costs." Bringing back the cave day stuff cost James Young, $30 Tessier street just $50 and costs in the police station Saturday morning. Young was arrested on the complaint of Miss Queenie Ward. $28 Bradley street, where he was arrested, that though he was no friend of hers he had knocked her cold when she refused to leave 'other friends' to go along the street with him. --- Was In And Out Before He Knew It This Sheik Used The Rough Stuff GAITHER AND N. W. POLICE ARE SCORED Although summarily disposed of by complete exoneration of Officer Frank Plcha, of the Northwestern police district, who jumped on the running board of the motorable of Dr. J. White, who find out it he example was white, an effort will be made to compel a hearing on the case, it was learned this week. J. Stewart Davis, acting as attorney for Dr. White, told a reporter for this paper that he had viewed the reports and that that he was entrusted to insist upon a hearing in the matter. Dr. White Shocked Dr. White expressed himself as shocked by the abrupt and one-sided decision of General Gaither in a prepared statement to this paper. Among other things he said: "I have just read the last article in reference to the Gaither's decision, in which I expect such an abrupt decision, especially since the othes's side of the question only has been fully investigated." "I gave to Attorney Davis, a brief synopsis of the case which we could have reasonably assumed would have entitled me to have been investigated and unlicensed exhausting additional charges against officer Frank Picha and also his supporting cast, which greeted me so corpiously at the Northwestern." "The lack of courtesy, embarrassment and humiliation to my wife and the other lady, makes it difficult to conceive the methods being employed by an institute of justice and equity. The legal, gallant and untiring efforts of the Miro-American, outable attorneys, and our more unfortunate victims, of circumstances, and passions and wonder if our contentions have fallen so far on ears of individuals who are reluctant or not inclined to be conceived that the integrity of the all-white force should not be questioned. Question to my mind, which should be settled once for all, whether we will be willing to have officers of the law to make blunders, crude and unwarranted intrusions, and if protested, gives vent to his chivalry to his police station and vindicates his crime by painting the unfortunate victims up as rowds and roughnecks? And get away with it. "If this is their type of justice, please give us the duplicity. I am at a challenge, that I will consider a substantial contribution in helping to defray the expense to procure the most proficient lie testing process, which has been used al- "I suggest further, that all justice-loving people will consider that an installation of this modern process becomes one of the standard equipment of our neighborhood prescript. This would make it necessary that prisoners should be the truth, and truthful officers need fear the acid test." ENTERTAINED Miss Nellie Bishop and Miss George Hill, of 513 Mosher street, entertained a few friends on Friday, honoring Mrs. Wilkerson and daughter, Mattie Terkerson, who are leaving this city to reside in Philadelphia.

"A girl friend and myself were walking down Pennsylvania ave. but when we met a friend who started to wait: along with me, he stepped up and told me I could not go with that man. Surprised, I told him that he had nothing to do with who I went with, and he struck me in the mouth. When his day in court, he told the Magistrate that he had fallen in love with the young woman on first sight, and he did not want her going along with any other man. We $25 and $55" said the Magistrate. "Next time use some other kind of love persuasion. Hubby Beats Wife Detective Mrs. Quenie Thomkinsk, 607 Wl Lee street, did not go to the fortune tellers, nor did she hire sleuths to ferret out the rather strange actions of friend husband at week. She did the job, and she did the job, and she brushes and Mr. Thompson minus $5 and costs, which he paid over to the police department. According to Mrs. Thomkinsk, her husband "had worked" out several nights which she could not understand, and that work was she kept an eye on his mail. The mystery solved itself when she found a nice juicy sweet epistle signed by a sheba in the 1500 block of Division street. When she took matters in her own hands it provoked the wrath of I-40, and they both said "Good morning, judge." Sunday. "Judge," complained Mrs. Thomkins. "All I want to you to do is to order my husband to stay home at night." Well, I can do that, but I can take care of you. I responded the magistrate, as he assessed a $5 and cost fine. FAVORITE W. Emmett Coleman, District Manager 1129 Druid Hill Ave., Baltimoer, Md. CUT MEANS CUT, SAYS MAGISTRATE O'NEIL NG. FINES FOR OFFENDERS QUICK TO DRAW KNIFE IN NORTHEASTERN DISTRICT Law breakers in the Northeastern District will think twice before they draw a knife during brawls, since Magistrate O'Neil has refused to let them off with a party fine. Magistrate O'Neil when charged with cutting, is given a term in the House of Correction, ranging from three months to one year. The customary fine of $25 to $50 has been shelved. Under the old order, it was easy for a man to pay his fine and be none the worst. Even wives, after having their husbands arrested for assault, would pay their hard-crowned money before he was sent to a military court. A knife term makes a loving impression, and is also a warning to others, the magistrate stated. Cutting cases have been reduced 40 per cent. he added.
