The veterian diplomas of the department were called together in solemn and secreal consultation, and were issued by Mr. Wharton was graduated forwards. Without taking a day of the year's required training, he was solemnly sworn in as a foreign diploma, given the department's blessings and as the first alumnus of the Foreign Service School and sent to him. He was given a recess appointment as secretary of the American legation at Monrovia, Liberia. A month later he was obligated safely out of the country, the Foreign Service School began.

KELLY MILLER HERO AS HOWARD FACULTY TESTIFIES AGAINST DURKEE BEFORE BOARD
Trustee Board Over Objection Of Three Members Grants Immunity To Professors, Who Are Asked "Are You In Favor Of Or Opposed To Dr. Durkee." Dean Slowe And Dean Holmes Refuse To Answer.
BY ALUMNUS
Race respect and dire Durkheim went to the mat on Thursday, December 10, of the hospitable potentials, and century to the plan of the president of the trustees, Dr. Durkheim was forced to hear the Alumna's case. For seven years he alone has enjoyed the privilege of narrating Howard's "romantic story" to the trustees, and he was a day in court, and if Dr. Durkheim is not banished from Howard University, they will continue their efforts. The writer has never expressed any enthusiasm for a meeting of Dr. Durkheim's colleagues to hear him, of course, in a victory in forcing the meeting, but the trustees can hardly cure the deeply rooted cause of all the trouble until democratic spread to that oligarchic group.
Trickery
With all due respect to the integrity of the gentlemen who compose the board, they are not men who are ultimately enough acquaintance with the subject of education to guide the destiny of Howard University; especially when their supposed educational expert has not the pedagogical wisdom of a high school student. In place of such wisdom, cheap political trickery, has been employed throughout the university's spasmatic administration.
Trustees
For the past eight years, Howard University has virtually been run by a weak president and an ambitious trustee, neither of whom has multiplied his power, nor the most elementary problems incidental to the running of a great university. As a result of this condition, such advice as has been sought has been taken from sources that perhaps meant Dr. Durkee, less harm than they meant themselves good. Like the president, he imposed upon as he has imposed upon others. Meanwhile Howard University has suffered.
Political Devices
Every known political device was employed to prevent the meeting. Losing in that fight, the Durkee committee called the meeting at a time when he knew for a fact that Bishop first, then for other other requirements, the call, can be present. With the exception of about three absences, the entire board met. Full details of the meeting are not available for this article, but our readers will be given such information at a later date. Some of the details of the meeting have reached the writer, who will pass them on to the reader.
Faculty Lined Up
Due either to an attempt at intimidation or to a more serious problem, the trustees actually tried to line up the college faculty up as to show them what was as vicious as it was stupid. The reader must not look for more "economy." It Howard unleses the "economy" that he timed, will surely hit back at the "cons."
Bandmaster Absent
At noon, the college professors were suddenly apprised of the fact that they would be expected to appear at the check, after they had been held in the Main Building, they were divided into squads of six and marched through gazing lines of students to the entrance. The absence of Dacey Rhodes' band prevented the procession from keeping regulation cadence, but the beats of their anxious hearts kept the crowd firing fifty-three in fairly regular step.
Frightened Faculty
No one know what it was all about. The poor frightened creatures they might attack, the scare, the brown, and Thornton. They knew that the monarch had been angry for days, and feared that he had made fault recommendations affecting them. Imagine their surprise when they faced the benign trustees who merely wanted them to answer one simple question without you; you might favor or do the授.Durkies? What a question for a group of men who have never been confined to a home for more than a year. A masterful attempt to secure purposeful information! It begins to appear that Howard University has a perfect right to be wrecked.
**immunity**
To make the proof apparently foolproof, an earlier resolution, bitten by a virus, gave the lords Moorland, Dumas, and Wheatland, granted immunity to all professors and students who might testify against King James II and the last we hope) of Howard University.
What kind of immunity can the trustees of Howard give any poor creature who is honest enough to have a conviction and inexpress ability to burke are the same friendly footing as a fox and a chicken.
One-third Opposed
Well, believe it or not, certain professors took the trustees at their word and expressed opposition to Dr. Durkee, declaring that he is not competent. In their opinion, to run flowerd to the professors called expressed an adverse opinion or none at all.
In this number were Dr. Just, Dr. Wesley, Prof. Tunnell, Prof. Tibbs, Dean Miller, Dean Cook, Mr. McKinney, who have not reached the writer, Dean Slowe and Dean Holmes considered the question as impudent and imprudent and refused to answer it.
McKinney
The surprise of the occasion was this young man, McKinney, an imprudent and imprudent appointed. He declared that he has had enough contact with Dr. Durkee to convince him that the president is temperamentally unfit for his position, and deemed him know at this time what subject Mr. McKinney teaches, but he is certain that if Dr. Durkee gets a chance to do some "pinch-hunting," Mr. Durkee will join the immortal cranial Miller A Hero
The real hero of the meeting was Dean Miller, though it is going
he difficult to persuade our readers. Accused of straddling on all former issues and even coaxed into making an alliance with Dean Miller and with Dr. Durkee Dean Miller laid aside his usual role and h'r Dr. Durkee such body blows that most referees would have called the hout a knockout. He spared neither president nor trustees. Dean Miller placed a mirror before the eyes of the colored trustees and flayed them unmercifully. he emphasized the gross insult that Dr. Durkee he was given permission to run the Curry School which does not admit colored students. He frankly held the colored trustees in particular culpable in the mistreatment he was given, the execution of Mr. Hawkins, and Dr. Wormley, who were not on the board at the time, voted President Durkee permission to run a school that insulted their own people.
Terribly Wounded
Unless these colored trustees wear bullet-proof armor around their race pride, if they have any, the ammunition they have wounded them terribly. When the smoke of battle dies away the colored people of America will pay their respects to their own fallen heroes. Howard board. Common deceyency requires their resignation along with their masters. It is cruel harm to talk about the Negroes' segregation and to protect the Negroes of America against vicious jim Crowism, when Negroes themselves vote for their own humiliation. An embarrassment in helping the Negroes to enjoy the benefits of democracy is going to come from the Negroes themselves. It is a big risk to try to give the Negroes what he clearly shows he does not want.
Trustees
When colored trustees vote to let a white man humiliate their own race, and the youth of their race at the court, the court will be colored. These colored trustees have furnished a strong argument. They know not what they have done, or they are race betrayers. They prove the contention that the black man is just like the white man in matters of oppression, whenever he has the upper hand. They prove the constant position of the white man in America and he would practice the very same kind of oppression concerning which he has constricted. These colored trustees are not compelled to respect the wishes of colored people, they are just as arrogant and as oppressive, as any Negro-hating
No Need To Go South
We need not go to Georgia or Mississippi for the Negro's most harmful enemy. We can go right to the Negro race, and you may manage an influential position, and can usually find the most harmful there. The trustee board of Howard University contains this brand and they showed the power of the good Lord save the poor struggling Negro from the Negro himself.
Reprehensible
However honest may have been the intentions of the trustees (and the burden of the proof of the ethics involved is greater) of the professors into the hostile courts was as reprehensible as any previous blunder of their idol.
Misfit
The record shows that the strongest colored professors—the real scholars of the teaching force, regardless of the position of the teacher at Howard characterized Dr. Durkee as a misfit. All the white professors but one save the tyrant a clean bill of health. Thus a serious cleavage in the teaching force, colored professors against white professors. The situation is even worse than before. It is now strength against weakness, race pride against Durkeism, colored professors against white professors. colored professors say that Dr. Durkee is a joke and failure. The white professors say that he is the right man for the place. Which group will the colored people be
No Harmony
What will the trustees do about it—discharge the scholarly Negro professors or Durkee and his group? The trustees have made a decision to work in harmony at the same institution. If the trustees had been in dead earnest about securing the information that they pretended they wanted, or, alternatively, higher than that expected of schoolboys, they would have employed a scaled ballot for their information, and not an oral yes or no vote. They would have accepted as colossal piece of stupidity to advertise their own sufficiency for the responsibility which they hold, or a democratic trick compatible with the cheap brand of polites upon which the university ro
Called Miller Pup
In the investigation, Dr. Durkee admitted that he called Dean Miller a "pupp" but not a "puppy". Unsurprisingly, he was universed in "anathemy" and cannot draw a nice distinction between these terms. All along Dr. Durkee has denied that he has been a Massachusetts audience last summer that he never called Dean Miller a "puppy", and sure enough he never did. Dr. Durkee was not the Greek oracle was never more clever with its ambiguities than this preacher Durkee. Dean Miller, an outstanding school character has never been assailed, and a writer of recognized ability, is called a "pupp" by an insignificant village observer and obscurity if a colored institution had not given him the opportunity which all white institutions had refused to admit. Howard University prestige. Dr. Durkee has given it none, but has received prestige from
Durkee Unknown Before
By virtue of being president of the great Howard University, Dr. Durkee has been given place in the university's prior to his election to the presidency of the University, his name is unknown to that publication, nor ever as president. Moreover, has been able to stand before the mighty—Presidents. Cabinet members and Congressmen. All that he is in remembrance. Howard University has his name.

Despite Dr. Durkee's admission that he called Dean Miller a "pup," the trustees issued a second objection on the hearing and released before the trustees had any opportunity to review the evidence) in which they declared that no professor had ever been insulted by President Insulted.
When Dean Miller was called a "pup," every self-respecting Negro was insulted. The writer would like to know under what circumstances is a Negro insulted? Apparently the Howard trustees insulted people as they have for dumb animals, and if the colored people stand for this gross insult, may they be showered with more trustees exonerated Dr. Durkee, as was predicted in the writer's last article. What else could they do? They had permitted him to be them so that they had really been insulted in his questionable deeds. A vote against him would have meant a vote against themselves.
Pay Is Voted
Despite their exonorization, they voted to pay a full year's salary to each of four dismissed professors so it be better to have that exonorization had at least one string attached to it, and probably not to the one that this is an acknowledgement of the guilt of which Dr. Durkew was accused, or of a terrible blunder which was not warranted for severity, and it really should. There was something rotten in Denmark and we hit it upon the head long ago. Will the United States Congress now in session please take notice of what has just happened at Howard University before recommending it for Howard for the next decade?
$7,000 Gratuity
FOUR PROFESSORS WHOSE SALARIES AGGREGATED ABOUT $7,500 WERE DISMISSED TO THEM THAT AMOUNT IS BEING GIVEN TO THEM AS A GRATUITY OF SOME KIND. Howard's economic methods are too extravagant to justify continued lessons and a number of so-called fellows are being liberally paid, and now four professors, from whom no work is being exacted, are given a new position. Surely some Congressman will look into such treckless extravagance.

Washington, D. C.—Fred C. Knollenberg, white Texas attorney, retained by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to carry before the U. S. Supreme Court, its fight against the disfranchisement of colored citizens through "white primary" laws in Southern States, has written a letter to the N. A. A. C. P. declaring that he is confident of the outcome of the case.
"So far as our case is concerned," writes Mr. Knollenberg, "I do not question the outcome of it, but on the contrary feel very confident that we are right, for as it now stands it is purely and simply a question of law which we feel we can present to the Supreme Court so they can and will take the view that the Texas act contravenes the Constitution."

hearts of the trunces to give these professors a full year's salary, service ought to be required of them. What is the argument now for the current year and thus curtail the expenses of those employed in their places? By the way, where did Howard find all this money to give away? Dr. Durkee told Congressman of the Government in retrenching, and now the University is getting ready to play Santa Claus.
Indemnity
If the University is undertaking to pay indemnities to all the professors whom Dr. Durkee has mistreated by his tricks, all former professors had better hung up their stockings, while Uncle Stim's money coming from the people may be squandered by a reckless administra-
All this points to the high cost of lying. A lie is the most expensive kind of investment, and it is sure to cause a campaign about which the administration lied so shamefully has now proved to be an extravagance campaign. The campaign is reading to learn just how much money Dr. Durkee has paid out since he started his economy campaign. The public outcry was so great that Dr. Durkee to retain his throne since this trouble began. His propaganda missives, press articles, epistles, pensions and indemnities have been enormously expensive.
Blunders Costly
If Dr. Durkee's policies continue to expand, there will be no hope of a cut in the income tax. The administration is costing the federal government $100 million in penny. His blunders are too costly. The Howard alumni have taken their first stop. The trustees were chily and indifferent. The trustees asked a day before the hearing. Despite their exoneration, they were informed of the kind of president they are supporting. No one was with him about when the moving-man should be summoned. He may longer longer, but the current belief is that such an exoneration is not necessary. Such is the factory. Such is the case when a bitterly attacked administration is given a vote of confidence.
The alumni committee, however, employed their own stenographers. Every word was taken down, the instructions with the public as jurors. The public will have a chance to see exactly what transpired at the hour of installation and installments next week. If the alumni did not prove their case against Dr. Durkee, the public will be forced to Dr. Durkee must go, and that's that.

The motion to strike these two paragraphs from the cross hill two the husband was died by Judge Escher on behalf of Mr. Pum, whom they represent.

the appropriations.
More Expected
The university administration expects this move. Its spokesman declare that they can murder as many votes against a congressional probe as the opposition can get in support of it.
The alumni believe that they are in a strategic position to force a congressional investigation. They have a stenographic report of the hearing before the trustee board and consider the evidence as supporting incompetence arbitrariness, the establishment of an espionage system their charge, Dr. Durkee of professors, diverting appropriations, favoritism and insulting the race.
Faculty Disapproves
Special emphasis is put upon the statements expressing disapproval of the conduct of Dr. Durkee made by members of the faculty, particularly Dean Kelly Miller, Dr. Ernest B. Just, George George, Dr. Ernest B. William V. Cunnel, Dr. Dwight, O. W. Hinton, Dean Lucy Slowe, Rory Roy W. Tibbs, Charles H. Wesley, William Coleman and Miss Luh V. Childers.
During the hearing about fifty members of the faculty were called in by the trussle board to state whether or not they approved Dr. Durkee's administration of Howard University. The older faculty member with the exception of D. J. Davis and Dean D. W. Woodard joined with the more recently employed faculty members in expressing approval.
Exonerated
The trustees voted an exoneration of Dr. Durkee and granted a "leave of absence" for a year with pay to Professors Alain LeRoi tozo H. Brown P. Lochard The bureau added a resolution that "No proof has been
The book which said that "No proof has been disbanded, summarily last June, and Orlando C. Thornton, who were brought forward which in the minds of the trustees proves President Durkee have been guilty of arbitrary or irregular action of his functions as president of the university. All direct personal charges against him are unsupported by evidence. A cause of his powers as president of the university was proven. His connection with the Curry School of Expression in Bosworth was approved at the time by the trustees. He has since relinquished that connection."
Formal Charges
The formal charges against Dr. Durkee were signed by George Frazier Miller, president of the General Alumni Association; Isaac H. Nutter, chairman of the executive committee, and Thomas Dyett, secretary of a special committee of the General Alumni Association. These charges were in substance as follows:
1. His educational policies have been erratic. Ill-advised and productive of sudden arbitrary and disrupting changes in the organization and management of the university.
2. He has ignored the regular channels and customs of the university, especially in the appointment and dismissal of faculty members without the advice, recommendation and knowledge of the deans and heads of the department, a reason of personal disagreement with Dr. Durkee, the university has lost a number of the most scholarly teachers, some of whom had international as well as national reputations.
Dictatorial
4. He has pursued an arbitrary and dictatorial policy, supported by a system of espionage and intimidation and appalled by the establishment of perilous secession unreliability, reliance upon rumor without investigation, and personal animus and bias.
5. He has disregarded and antagonized the results of the congress and association by usurping their functions and invading their rights by imposing upon this body an alumni secretary of his personal choice, devising means of eliminating them from participation in the university affairs.
Used Epithets
6. He has insulted and violently handled faculty members, particularly Dr. Thomas W. Turner, whom he forcibly ejected from his office, and Dean Kelly Miller, whom he called a "contemptible cur."
7. He was deterred approximately 100 per cent of the sum of $15,000 provided by the trustees, for increase of salaries of academic teachers to the employment of new teachers, all of whom he preferentially relied on. In June, 1925, when his scandal program went into effect, He has been arbitrary and vindictive in his recommendations of promotions, salary increases and other executive actions with reference to the teaching force.
8. Curry School
9. His father has been irreparably impaired by his open afront and insult to the race in his acceptance of the presidency of the Boston School of Expression, from which Negroes are excluded, by holding these two offices for the academic year 1925-1926.
Attorney Thomas B. Dyett, of counsel for the alumni told newspapermen that he considered all these charges as having been fully
Emmett Scott
The name of Emmett J. Scott, secretary-terasurer, was drawn into the hearing. Alonzo H. Brown, during the probe into the dismissal of the four professors testified that Mr. Scott told Carter G. Woodson, prior to their dismissal that ten faculty members were slated to be dismissed and named Kelly Miller, George W. Cook, Miss W. Childers, Roy W. Cook, W. Childers, Roy W. Cook, W. Childers, Orlando G. Thurton, Metz T. Lochard, Alaine LeRoy Locke, T. H. Wesley and, Alonzo H. Brown

The hearing began at 10 o'clock
thursday morning and lasted until
7:30 in the evening. It was held
in the Carnegie Hall chap-
pus, where the trustees went
to executive session and remained
until adjournment. Newspaper men
were barred from the hearing but

Five Members
The meeting was called at the request of five members of the board. Only two colored members were present. Bishop Hurst, who was absent on account of a church conference in Florida over which he was presiding, and Dr. C. Sumner Wormley, Dr. Durkee was represented by Atkinson Penton W. Booth of the law school acted as legal adviser to the board. Attorneys Thomas B. Dyett, of New York, James A. Lightfoot, of Atlantic-Icty and George A. Parker were counsel for the alumni. They were assisted

by a committee of alumni, on which were Archbald S. Pinkett, Nellie M. Quander, the Rev. W. D. Jarvis and Thomas Walker. Professors Locke, Brown and Lochard appeared before the board in their own behalf.
Whitewash.
Members of the alumni regard the proceedings as a whitewash. Notwithstanding this, they are of the opinion that the opening wedge has been made and it is only a question of time before Dr. Durkee will either resign or be dismissed.
Sues Neighbors For $100,000
New York.—Samuel Browne, letter carrier and the centre of a race controversy in the Custleton Hill District of Staten Island on Thursday filled in the Richmond County Clerk's office at St. George complaint in a suit asking $100,000 damage from nine white neighbors on the ground that they sought to deprive him of his home.
Mrs. Browne is joint plaintiff in the action, and the first of those named in the complaint is Musco M. Robertson, wealthy real estate dealer and head of the Robertson Development Company, which found him guilty of development Mr. Robertson is a next-door neighbor of the letter carrier and last August was indicted for conspiracy to oust Browne from the community. Five others were named as "John Doe" at the same time.
Military League Shakeup
New York.—A general shake up of officers of the Colored Military League orders and the Colored Military League orders have already been prepared for the suspension of some of the promoters of the League orders. These orders have not yet been issued from the Headquarters and will not be until the newspapers have been issued from the Headquarters and Nessie Bassett will be made private secretary to the General Commander. That meant the General Staff was given a banquet last week by Captains E. Fields and William D. Trout were suspended.

Johnson testified that while working in the diamond mines in Africa through a correspondence school in this country, The County detectives who made the arrest testified that Johnson's mission was nited out with a throne room, where he cultured himself "King of the God Givers" who he conducted his terrible rites.
"You are a real lenner," declared Judge Smith, in imposing the sentence. "You and your cult prey on the most ignorant of your Race, apologize for your failure to satisfy whatever confidence they may have in the real things and pleasures of life. I don't know whether you hypnotize them or what you do to them, but through your crazy antics you become a king, and for good you employ it for all the devilty and evil you can think of. I only wish that there was a greater sentence for a man like you, and I implore every Colored citizen to notify the police when they hear the hours of one, like you." After the sentence Johnson burst into a hymn. His harbiter voice rang through the corridors as he was being led from the Courtroom to a car.

Edward Henry Is Appointed 30th Ward Police Judge By Governor

Henry Stumped Smith For John W. Davis Democrat For President
By JOHN E. RAYMOND
Philadelphia,—Gov. Pinchot, announced the appointment of Hon. Edward W. Henry, a widely known lawyer and former president of the Citizens' Club, as magistrate of the Thirtieth Ward.
His appointment was announced the next death of Hon. Amos M. Scott, the first rage-man to be named police magistrate in a city wide election.
His appointment was announced following a visit by Henry and a delegation of prominent citizens, to the executive offices in Harrisonburg, to the Citizen's Street police station and Court number 2 at 1500 Christian street. His term will expire in 1923. Magistrate Henry resides at 756 South Martin street. He is married and has one son. Born in Buffalo, he attended the University he earned his college degree at Atlanta University and studied law at Howard. He was president of the Citizen's Council for five years, and resigned in 1924, after a faculty lied by Scott. At the same time he resigned from the National Conference of Colored Republicans, declaring that he could no longer ignore, condone nor submit to the very unfair and unjust treatment imposed by the Republican party.
His resignation was brought on by his adverse political ideas of the republican party. He flatly refused to endorse the Coulidge-Dawes ticket to which the club had plotted. He was also the south for John W. Davis, the Democratic Presidential nominee, declaring in his speeches that Davis was the colored people's friend, who believed in justice regardless of who you are. Since then he O.P. again. At an election of the officers of the Citizens' CLB, next week, he will run again for the presidency, this time against John A. Sparks, assistant City Solicitor, who maintained a strong Republican backing. Mr. Sparks was initially qualified for the new post and has the confidence of all classes of people.

Perhaps the old homely expression that "Great minds run in the same channel" might fit tightly be dragged out and forced to fit the parallel existence of Frederick. Douglass, the great Maryland abolitionist and his great-great grand daughter Miss Etel Waters, the highest salaried rure artist before the American public today.
The great Douglas, as you know, spent his life in an effort to abolish the curse of slavery, while his disillusioned wife, Martha, continued to mimitate the "blues" with her songs and witty sayings. Ethere Waters was born in Chester, Pennsylvania, but much more than her husband, she gave her valuillee career as a protege of the Hills sisters on the "kerosene" circuit. She drifted into entertaining in cabarres, thence as a "Mystery" an early Micheaux production, and when the new record making wave struck the country she was washed high with excitement and added a considerable sum to her min money.
Establishes Records
Recently "Georgia Brown" has established a new high record for record sales, the number sold being well into six figures. This by no means, however, covers all of the resourceful young lady's accomplishments, oh no; she has the distinction of being with her partner. E. D. Dancer, the first race actress to travel over the Orpheum time. She recently obtained a release from the officials of the circuit to enter the Plantation Revue in New York. The contract with the Kelth-Aibee office will not expire until August, 1927.
Brews Into Hebrew Press
Like her, Illustrious forebear Douglass, Ethel Waters seems to delight in doing the things that no one else has done before. In the last year she "broke into" the columns of the "New Warheit," a Jewish publication in New York. Her cut was displayed accompanied by the intelligence that she sang "Elli" and other Hebrew numbers. To date this feat has not been duplicated. Monthlies, dailies, publications of both the white and colored press have lauded the magnetic Miss Waters to the "nth degree."
Aided by Dancer
In no small degree has the singer been assisted to her present status by the aid of partners Earl Dana and a greenable chair, looking chap who comes from Houston, Texas, via Los Angeles, California. The artist has the experience of the knowledge which he had acquired, and has thus been invaluable as an
Hos $10.0000 Car
The early engagements of Ethel Waters in the lean years were far removed from the $1,000 to $1,500 week we are capable of earning now. A huge Locomobile, which I understand, "set" the owner back $1,000 bucks, is a testimonial for the Gulliver Ethel has made over VERY GOOD. With it all, thank heaven, she is just one of the crowd, talented, magnete, and with no objection, she is its "LOOKING AT THE QUEEN."

The program maker here has extended himself to provide unusually attractive features for the entire week, but particularly has he succeeded in securing outstanding pictures for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. On the 24th (thursday) "The Ten Commandments" that has proved a sensational film wherever shown will be screened. The first part of the story is founded on the Biblical chapters that tell of the slavery of the Israelites in the Sea, their disobedience by worshiping the Golden Calf and punishment for violation of the Commandments. The second part tells a story that shows the violation of the laws are as punishable today as then. The story of the slavery of the Western plains has been announced for Christmas Day. Lovers of outdoor life, as it existed in the cattle country, will get the thrill of a lifetime witnessing the cattle stampedes, the gunplay for red-blooded men, and he conquering of the forces of right against a band of desperados, the greatest of the week is rich in handpicked serials, comedies and features also.
"Beggar On Horseback"—"Goose Hangs High"—Carey
A scintillating, whimsical attire, this is one of the cleverest comedies that ever cast fantastic shadows on the silver screen, will play here on next Monday and Tuesday. There had "bad dreams" and here is one that is accurately pictured with all the odd and ludicrous trappings with which nightmares are harmed.
In place of one butler, there are scores of them. Dozens of dancing masters appear. There are a hundred best men at the wedding. When lips are given, they are bars of gold: millions of dollars are everywhere. How the wigs are exaggerated until his neckwear stands forth like a pair of wings; Ginny shimmies always—even at the altar; Mrs. Cady's rockers is attached to her person; and the Dreamer remains clad in the latter batheb in which he does off.
Nonsense? Surely? But high comedy that will find the ticklish spot in the gallery is the photographic art of artistry. There is beauty as well as burlesque. A pantomime is pictured. It is of a king and queen who seek romantic adventure, and find it in meeting one another incognito. And there is a country-side tydily in which Neil Cyrilin and love and happiness. Jimmy Cruze has produced a photography which marks a milestone in the industry. The novelty effects, lighting and photography are exceptionally fine. Her Talent is sweetly appealing as the understanding sweetheart of the impractical musician. Gertrude Short is fine as the high-stepping Gladys. Edward Horton's portrayal of Meltra gains instant audience sympathy. In short, every player in the production is well cast and does creditable work.

The youth and accompanying enthusiasm of that age were evident throughout the routine. Mitchell, he of the versatile feel, assented, and as an eccentric funster, capably filled the role. There was much regret that his dancing was not tendered, and he gave stones more—much more—the antithesis of this young man.

Art Work On China, Glass
Among the outstanding artists who will visit the Art Exhibit planned here by the Par-.ent-Teacher Federation in the near future, will be Miss Augusta Savage, the well-known New York Sculptress.
Miss Savage, whose work has attracted considerable attention, has given the local committee tentative assurances that she will not only place a sculpture at the Art Exhibit, but that she will visit Baltimore when it is held.
Won Scholarship
When seen in New York recently representing the AFRM MERIGAN, the expressed keen interest in the effort the Parent-Teacher Federation is making to bring about a popular appreciation of the art achievements of parents in the city.
"Nothing is more needed than an endeavor along this line," according to Miss Savage, who has won scholarships for excellence in art
She says, "We have not yet come to the place where we realize the value of art expression as a racial asset. Art exhibits, such as the Patient-Teacher Federation plan, will be on our towards bringing about this addition."
Make Headway
The plans for the Art Show are making headway, reports Mrs. Lautenberg, the director of more Teacher Federation, and Mrs. Joseph B. Mason, who is also actively engaged in pushing the work. There will also be exhibits in house, including china and glass painting. A request for the use of the High School Building was approved by the Board of Education at a recent meeting.
Concert on 27th
On the 27th the artists will be a part of a big program directed by Will Marion Cook. This concert will be held to secure funds to establish a Negro Art School contemplated by Cock. Percy Smith of the Cecilohn Street, Baltimore, has received letters after several weeks' illness.

Ethel Waters, always a Baltimore favorite, has returned to our midst heading up the tour. Since her last engagement here Miss Waters has had wreathes of praise placed on her brow by less than a percentage than the great Ashley. She has also acquired the distinction of being the first race woman artist to tour the Orpheum time. Recently she has completed an exhibition of the "Plantation" one of New York's most exclusive night places, which show intact she is showing to Baltimore. Other fast company have not spotted her one lota and when she appeared on Monday night the old friends greeted her and didn't have to leave from having a most compelling personality and looks, is now a comedienne of unusual accomplishments. Her curtain raiser "Dinah" cemented her place as the most followed. "You can't Come Like My Last Man Did," in which she was another fascinating bit of character portrayal, bore score "Da Du was satisfying."
"Tondalayo," a travesty on that character in "White Cargo," and balheads in the front row come up for air several times. The receptivity of the customers was evidently one use, one purpose, and we have been taught to believe that it does "TONDALAYO." Whew. Miss Waters kept up a running fire of the camera, which was intended to act as "shock absorber." In this number as in the preceding ones, Miss Waters stood out like a lighthouse on the beach. Bessle Allison, once chosen one of the most beautiful girls in America, sang "Tiger Ladies in Harlem" with the blighted bit of femininity added all the charm she possessed. In a Spanish dance with Eddie Rector this delicacy little more awakened signs and admiring glances from their escorts. Earl Dancer's looks haven't deserted him and he proves an attraction as Miss Waters partner, and
Eddie Rector and Ralph Cooper defy description in their dancing allotment on the program at the Ralph's in solos and dues as these two on any stage, anywhere; then, that was before we came from the country. They liked Rector, they liked Cooper, they liked Rector for their finish the ratters rung in the palmings of the folk in front. The eight "Plantation Vamps," beautifully matched, hundred per cent lookers and wonderful steppers add importance. Have they a band?

Baltimore has regained its lost prestige as a good theatre town with the actors this season. The Regent and Royal have enough to accommodate anything from the "Miracle" down. There are three other theaters playing vaudeville, and the calls for talent by other interests are discounted. It isn't place for the "crackpot" or the foeder, but if you have something to sell, you'll find plenty of takers down here by the Roxana River.

Wives Travel From London To
France By Aeroplane To
Do Their Shopping
London—Rubie Blake and
Noble Sissie, the American art-
ists have taken England by
storm, and from the number of
contracts which they hold they
will continue to do so for some
time; unless they accept proffered
dates on the continent.
The act opened at the exclusive Kit Kat Club and the Placefully, both places renamed The Placefully. Their success in the former place quickly brought them tender of an engagement at the Alhambra, where they were wild. They were held over at the Alhambra, and then went into the Coliseum for three hours in the larger place Christmas and New Year's weeks. The Victoria Palace, Chiswick Theatre, Holborn Empire, and Shaw Street all all held the team soon.
Aside from their stage triumphs Blake and Sissie's musical compositions are being whistled by an artist who has been recorded for the graphophone companies and has become a broadcasting favorite. London's biggest Revival Squirt festival, the London's Moon. It is believed that Londoners may yet see "Shuffle Along." "Picadilly Blues" is another of their compositions that will be released soon. They will be joined by Avis Blake, the wives of the partners respectively join their husbands in their social activities whenever time permits. Mrs. Sissie said that she will be joined by London's slang expression "It's upon you." The two ladies have made several shopping trips to Paris via aeroplane to do their shopping. The airport is neglected over the air route in two hours.
"She" Was "He"

The actor claimed that after the show was closed he has had little to do, and was trying hard to find another job. He heard of a woman who had little chance for his talents in last 135th, so he discussed himself as a woman and called a text. The chauffeur became suspicious that his fare was a woman and asked an officer. Hence the senseless.

Groomes, Mrs. Mary Sissler, W
iam James Sissler and W
mary Mary K. Wheeler were among
the numerous array of witnesses who
testified to sustain the will.
It was developed in the trial, principally through Reva Marshall and Charles E. Jackson, both of whom made excellent witnesses, that the deceased William Marshall, who worked for weeks before he was taken to Poughkeepsie showed marked evidences of senile deterioration and delusion; that the change from a man who was neat and careful of his personal appearance to a man who had seen that he became forgetful, that he frequently failed to recognize his employees and some of his customers who had patronized his shop for years, that he would pick up some slippers and slip them a cleanliness.
They testified that he would frequently fail to pay his barbers and contend that he had paid them and on other times, would insist on paying them when they had been paid, that he dropped his food over his clothing when eating and the saliva from his mouth would run down on his hands, that he entertainedusions that his wife would polign him and refused to cut the food prepared by her and sent to the shop.
Medical Experts
It was upon such and similar evidence that the hypothetical questions were framed for the medical experts and they promptly answered, that the deceased was admitted to the hospital due largely from the disease from which he suffered—enlargement of the prostate gland—that the disease was progressive and had progressed from senile deterioration to senile dementia and had progressed to a condition where he executed the will at Poughkeepsie on April 12, 1923.
Left Baltimore
It was brought out, that Mr. Wheeler, left Baltimore on the 10th of April, 1923, that he was taken to the office of Dr. Palliser on the 11th of April for examination and that he was taken to the lawyer of Poughkeepsie appeared and began a conversation about what he wanted to do and that.
Makes New Will
As a result of that interview, Mr. Wheeler, the prominent House where he was stopping with his sister-in-law, Georgine Kelly Smith, a statement of what he wanted in his will and a statement of a power of attorney to his wife.
The statement was offered in evidence and proved to be encouraging to the proponents' ca. Mr. Aldrich, representing the contestants, riddled it and to tare it to tatters.
Robbery?
The proponents evidently started out to prove that Charles E. Jackson and Clarke L. Smith have robbed the decedent. Clarke Smith was put on the stand by the contestants and/or more proved, by documents and papers in the decedent's own handwriting, that all of his dealings with Mr. Wheeler had been fair and above suspicion and above board. It was the opinion that his testimony had marked influence upon the jury.
The Old Will
Mr. Wheeler made a will in January, 1922, which is on file in the Orphans' Court in Baltimore City. The court set his wife what she would get if he left the state, which, under the laws of Maryland, would be one half of his estate; the shop and the house on Etting street to Charles E. Jackson, his friend and foreman for 37 years, and the house to his aged sister, Martha E. Powell of Atlantic City, New Jersey.
This will, the Poughkeepsie will having been broken, will now be able to contest the contestants are much elated over the outcome of this great trial, They will claim that the verdict was a right, who bore the brunt of the trial at the table, is being congratulated by his associates, and the contestants.

Two families were divided during the contest, one of the Allor brothers played the Douglass team, while the other holds down a forward berth on the Vocation quintet. "Ed" West has cast his lot with the visitors and brother "Gene" is out with the high school passers.
Short, snappy passing, working the ball under the basket enabled Douglass to keep their opponents up a tree. It was a smooth machine that reprepares high school in the first two perlots. ALUNIIN NEXT.
This Friday Douglass will tackle the Alumni in what is expected will be a difficult assignment for the school lad, as they will not only find seven players from their coach but several players from the strong Athenian line up.
"Shippy" Taylor, "Ike" Wright and Tom Wheatley are some of the alumni that will give the youngsters a stiff argument.
"In the semi-final two class teams, 4-A-1 and 4-A2, hooked up in a one-sided tilt that ended in a 15-6 victory for 4-A2." Whittington, captain of the Douglass team last year, was the reference in the windup. Whittington is now a student at Lincoln University, and is home for the holidays.

before the big game started.

There was not a dry eye among the alumni or the players, it was said, as Goodman prayed for strength and will to win. This is the Lincoln spirit, according to the alumnus, which enables this little Pennsylvania College with less than 300 men enrolled to pit out a football team which beats of Howard every year. Howard University's enrollment this year is 2233 and the football team was the best in the history of the college. Following Goodman's prayer, off of the alumni told the players that four Howard men were out celebrating Saturday and Sunday before the game. He called the team to concentrate their offense upon them.
games declared this alumnus, accompanied by a Howard backfield player, was said to have thrown during the football season, necessitating their remaining out until a late hour and violating training rules. They like the bright lights he said. Telling the Lincoln team he said, "Howard has an aggregation of stars, not a football team. You can beat them. Go and do the job."

I am not misled by the sympathetic symptoms which might be mistaken as the disease itself. EXPERIENCE HAS TAUGHT ME THAT I MUST GO DEEPER TO DETERMINE ACCURATELY FUNDAMENTAL CAUSES.
The organ which seems to be most affected may not be the diseased organ at all. For it is a fact that the diseased organ in the body can upset a half dozen other organs by taking from them the necessary vital NERVE FORCE required for the DISEASED ORGAN. My diagnosis goes below surface conditions and reveals the gauss point where RESERVE NERVE FORCE IS BEING WASTED THE LEAK. My treatment corrects FAULTY CO-ORDINATION of the nervous system. FAULTY SYSTEM AND FAULTY ELIMINATION, the important functions upon which the body depends for normal health.
The SENIRE CHANGES begin to take place in a man at about the age of 45 years. This change is sometimes imperceptible but BERTAIN, and it is at this period we must call upon the RESERVE NERVE FORCE with which Nature endowed us at birth upon him, some extent from day to day. If we have exhausted our RESERVE NERVE FORCE THROUGH EXPENDITURE from day to day, we are to attain to our full three score years and ten with continued health and happiness. WE MUST ASSIST NATURE TO RENEW THE VITAL NERVE FORCE through proper treatment. To do this takes the skill of a SKILLED SPECIALIST. I am a SPECIALIST—all my professional life has been devoted to studying the diseases of men—to keeping abreast or science as new olivocaries come to light.
My methods are MEDICAL employing every discovery and every appliance of SCIENCE which has been used in RESTORING THE VITAL NERVE FORCES so that men may reach their full, bright, and in perfect health and strength.
Thousands of satisfied patients testify to my ability to successfully treat diseases of the BLOOD—SKIN—PROSTATE—BLADDER-KIDNEYS—STOMACH—REPTUM—CHRONIC DISEASES. And renaline is very important to saturate your blood. And renaline is the MAN I AID TO YOU TO REGAIN HEALTH. Consultations and advice are FREE. My Fees are reasonable. THERE IS NO REASON WHY YOU SHOULD SUR-ER—no reason why you should be only HALF A MAN. COME TO ME—specifically, year after year, and my UN-LIMITED Fees are required. THERE IS NO REASON OR-DOUBT what your disease is you under a treatment which has proven successful in thousands of other cases.
I TREAT MEN AND MEN ONLY
I do not treat symptoms—do not aim with a shotgun at a bully in the hopes of ing the center of the attack, but instead, I carefully separate the chaff from the grain. I am not satisfied with merely whitewashing a disease. I ascertain carefully the primary cause and contributory complication, and my treatment is designed to move the CAUSE of your instance, a man with a headache would not permit his brain to be opened, nor should he be hospitalized or relieved of the kind or another. I clear demonstrate to you the need for and the VALUE of my treatments as they apply to our PARTICULAR CASE.

TAYLOR STAVES OFF DEFEAT FOR GREEKS
Cages Two Field Goals Last
Half Minute Of Game With
GRACE BOYS BOW TO ST. BARNABAS 19.5
In Semi-Final Contest
"Chippy" Taylor is a hero in local basketball circles. Manager Wright is at the "Ghost" into the past Friday night against the Howard University varsity team with about 20 seconds to play. The Greeks were trailing a 24-20 victory, suffering a 24-20 game, before the season, Taylor hosted two double-deckers in the all-around 20 seconds, which was enough to out the Greeks by a 27 to 24. Over 700 fans jammed the New Albion Auditorium to witness the contest.
GAME.
A barbarians staged one of the greatest comedies in court epicles to coach the Champion Greys boys' Club. The semifinal by a 19 to 12 deserving victory wins. The Catholic boys broke their winning streak.
BIG GAME.
The college boys set the paces at the point of the winnings, and before one扑倒, Berry and Spurs personal foot by "Blegues" Poles on Spurs gave Spurs another point on the foot line. Howard had jumped from the 10-foot line.
BREAMS BLOOD.
DEMARIS DRAWN is just blood for the lewis he just拍了 a grateful one lewis sight near the basket. "Sterrapy" brown followed suit and a foe throw the baskerville tied from "Jazz Bypy" baskerville to Brown, who caged the ball and gave the Alphamens a 2-point. From then on the Greeks found themselves led the scoring at half time. The visitors' other goal was made by Simpson in a long shot from the sidelines.
DEMARIS DRAWN LEAD, with both teams stepping on the ball. With about five minutes to play and a seven point lead, Lawson was forced Spencer, Baltimore boy and former player. Lawson and Spencer on a barrage from all angles of the court that put the Bisons on the sweeping.
DEMARIS STARS. At this point Taylor was sent in to substitute for Baskerville. Breaking the five-man line were to be taken from less than a half minute put the game on the floor. hundreds of fists raised on the floor and incumbents carried Taylor away on the shoulder. amid shouts of gladness.
Captain Lawton was easily the hero for the school halls. His brilliant playwriting and artistry is best toow in court contests. Spurs shared homes with his cousin in roaring, missing and long distance shows. He was a guard in court guard combination. His reserves in Washington, Spencer, Wright, Maternal and Brooks, give the voices an up to the minute court presence. The ability of the Athletics to maintain two first teams and shoot fresh into the game equates to the ability of the Athletics to give the favorites a decided advantage. Unable of Taylor, it would be hard to knock a star in Friday's game with a teammate. With coaching plays, might have outspokenly teammates by a scant margin. Four field goals in one four-kill victory. Brown, Veney, Kelder, Jackson, Taylor and Harder all worked in the NAMAS (CROWNED).
LINCOLN AND

Representatives of Howard and Lincoln met at the M. E. C. A. University to arrange a football game. Howard representatives: Coach Watson, E. P. Davis. Dr. Emmet Scott, E. P. Davis. Lincoln representatives: Coach Young, George Johnson and Grimes.

GOOD MORNING JUDGE
The Afro Court Reporter
To raid parties in which the men impersonated women is a common occurrence in the Western District but to run across a party in the city was even a revelation to seasoned patrolmen, when they raided the house at $210 Born Alley Monday night. According to the officers who burglarized the house into the Station house, they entered the house at the above address about 12 o'clock and found the room dense with smoke, where the women neglected. Some of the young women were marmalade hobs, flat chewed shoes and talked in a masculine tone that made the desk sergeant take a second look before he filled in the male room. Corn whiskey was found in abundance. This, however, was not allowed to be entered in evidence, by Roy S. Bond who was summoned by young women to represent them. After much questioning concerning the peculiar party, which was highly enjoyed by the spectators in the room, all were fined $1 and costed.
Those taken were Sarah Wilson, 821 Born Alley, Mary Smith, 821 Born Alley, Gladys Parker, 538 Born Alley, Stockton street; Dianne Garrison, 2409 Stockton street; Hazel Chesley, 588 Biddle street; Pearl Dixon, 1148 Stockton Street; Ella Williams, 231 Alley Street; Erin Ann Cook, 2518 Stockton Street; Rawlings, 215 Brune Street; Fannie Tigham, 507 Oxford street; Wancha Cannon, 1400 Laundry street; Honneta Turner, 3409 said they had been employed as waiters were also fired, they were Clarence Johnson, 1409 Brewer street and John Hill, 821 Born Alley. The party was given in the house of Miss Eleanor Garrison, the name of which was withheld by the women.
If Findley Young, 1311 N. Mount street, and had only known when to let well enough alone he would not have gotten into trouble. Young was a charge of speaking eight chickens. According to Louis Millian, white, 1400 block Fulton avenue, he missed six chickens on a day he bought a million became excited; he didn't mind doing a rushing business but he didn't like business to rush too fast. He moved the coop down he moved the coop around in front of the store where he could command a good view of the remaining two chickens. Everything was quiet for the coop, so he seemed to reach around the corner and find its way around the neck of the largest fowl and proceed to lift it notiselessly from the coop. This was from the store and began to grapple with the owner of that hand, who was no other than Young. After a hearing in the Northwest side of the city, the coop was held for further investigation.
A feintenant, a sergeant, and a patrolman of the Northeast District, led a car in a high powered car about 4:30 p.m. Thursday morning. The feintenant was at the wheel. It was still dark out, glaring on the road, and vehicles visible for nearly a block away. Suddenly the car spring forward as the driver foot pressure increased. The driver stopped as suddenly as he had started a block or so forward. Mrs. James Jones saw very closely wrapped wrapee in a burp bag. His expression showed plainly that he was not eager for any conversation with the deputy guardian in the automobile.
“What are you carrying so early in the morning?” asked the deputy guardian, very closely wrapped by his comrades. Before the deputy Jones could answer, the patrolman raised one corner of the dashboard with his driving cog register. One peep was enough, he crawled back into the car followed by the officer, Jones

James was held for the action of the Grand Jury under $2,000 bond. The cash register was empty.

judice was dealt a severe blow."
That was the tense comment of Miss Mabel Holloway, senior Liberal arts student at Howard University, whose election as a member of the executive committee of the National Students Federation caused the withdrawal of the Louisiana State University representatives from the federation.
Miss Holloway talked freely about the National Collegiate World Court conference, which was held at Princeton University last Friday and Saturday and at the close of which the National Students Federation was formed. She was a member of the executive committee that planned the world court conference. But she avoided talking about the stirring drama in which she was the principal figure. It was Miss Marion Thompson, a junior liberal arts student and one of the Econ University representatives at the conference who gave a detailed story of the affair. At the closing session of the National Collegiate World Court Conference at Princeton University last Saturday night, the feasibility of establishing a permanent federation of American students was discussed, and it was decided to form an organization. The principal officers were elected. G.E. Goodman of Lincoln University was a member of the committee that drafted the constitution.
It was decided to divide the United States into seven regions and to select a person from each region to serve as the executive committee. Nominations were made by a nominating committee. The delegates had the privilege of making additional nominations. The nominating committee nominated Miss Holloway to represent the southern schools on the executive committee. K. C. Kiser, white, senior vice president of the floor, nominated from the floor. R. P. Daniels of Virginia Union University called attention to the fact that southern white students already had a S. Green of the University of Georgia, who had been chosen vice president of the federation. Mr. Daniels should be selected in order to take up colored students with the organization. Miss Holloway was elected. After the selection of representatives from the other regions, Mr. Kiser thought that the region, Mr. Daniels should have thought that the region, Mr. Daniels should have had been defeated, and he had withdrew Louis in State University from the conference. The conference voted to incarnate his drawal.
Miss Thompson told the conference that she was proud of the fact that she could return to the flowering students there that an organization had been formed that stood for the principles of democracy in foot and mouth. A representative arose, and in a wave of emotion, stated that the conference had passed a motion, the seriousness of which had not been realized, referred to a motion to be made by the students. He declared that the secretary should be instructed by a vote of the conference to write the Louisiana decree of the conference that its delegate had found it necessary to withdraw and extend the university an invitation to come back into the conference. About this time, representatives of southern schools began to realize fully what had happened and opened the road to visit Miss Thompson from membership on the executive committee. The first proposition offered was that there should be another election should was discontent. It was voted down.
The second proposition was that there should be two representatives from the South on the executive committee. The third proposition was that Miss Holloway should represent college students and another representative white southern students. It was likewise voted down. The fourth proposition was that Miss Thompson not be considered a southern city. This question was qualified Miss Thompson, but it was voted down. The Green of Georgia questioned the validity of a count. She rounded a count. He failed in this effort. He then requested the conference to ask Miss Thompson whether or not she wanted a co-worker. This permit her to answer this question.
During the discussion a Kansas university representative denounced college colleges spoke of the fear that the organization had been formed with the purpose of promoting friendship and aid with its first concrete problem. They urged the organization not to submit to race prejudice. Miss Razia Johnson, a first-year student in Texas was among those who supported Miss Holloway and denounced race prejudice. Dartmouth College representative, A. Leland Stanford University representative told the conference that his school and tell the students there that the conference had condoned race prejudice. The demeaned permanent organization, a compromise was effected by the conference voting to have two representatives from each
Both Miss Holloway and Miss Thompson spoke in the highest terms of the treatment accorded the colored students attending the conference. They declared that there were no differences in the treatment and that colored students were treated cordially by all with whom they came in contact. Among the representatives of coloration, William P. Stevenson, G. H. Goodman and F. N. A. Johnson, Lincoln University; Miss Marcel Holloway and Marion Thompson and Theodore G. Howard University; C. W. Caldwell, Morgan College; L. J. Carrier, Cheney State Normal; R. A. G. Foster, Lingdinge College; Charles W. Florence, Virginia University; R. P. Daniels, Virginia Union University, and R. K. Hyman, Rust College. At the close of the conference, Lewis Fox of Princeton University invoked vine aid in compiling race
MEMBERS' ADVISED NOT
TO ATTEND EXHIBIT
Hit Them Thru The Pocket-
book Is Advice Of Dr. Er-
Pastors in the city took a hand in the proposal of the Heartst newspapers (Baltimore American and Evening News) to set aside a special day for colored people at the Christmas exhibition in the Heartst Building.
As told in last week's AFRO-AMERICAN, colored visitors to the exhibition who thought "themselves invited by the announcements printed in the News and American which stated, that the show was "free to all," were pulled out of line and told that white people only were admitted. A special day for colored will be provided, they were told. Mr. Ernest Lyon, custor of Ames Church, called the attention of three Baptist and Methodist ministers to the matter at their sessions Monday and Wednesday mornings. He stated that Mrs. Willard W. Allen, wife of the Grandmother of Masons, and her two children were among the people who were humiliated when asked out.
"The conference unanimously passed a resolution: (1) resenting the policy of Hearst newspapers in setting aside a special day for colored people who "as citizens need no special provisions made for them to attend advising congregations night," (2) attending the exhibition on the best apart for them (3) members of city churches with withdraw subscriptions to the News and American," "Hit the Hearst papers through their pocketbooks," declared Dr. Lyon. "I have already told my newsboy, not to leave the American or the News any longer." "W. L. Fitzgerald, former councilman, called up officials of the Hearst papers to make a complaint." Dr. L. Fitzgerald, "They hung up the poster on him. The time has passed when any newspaper can insult a large group of its subscribers intentionally and get off with it."

Likelihood of a hard winter ahead was probable, she said, pointing out holly on the porch which had no red berries on it.
Although it was ten days before Christmas, visitors from the city were gathering holly and laurel, pine and or trees, ferns and green vines for decorations.
They are welcome to all they can find here. Prather's pleasant announcement but they won't find any berries on the holly.
Extra heavy coats on wild and domestic animals were also pointed out as evidence of a hard winter ahead.

Why Pretty?

All babies are born with approximately the same physical handicaps, so far as beauty is concerned. They all have a marked resemblance to the other. Little packeried-up faces, equity in hair, brown skin; these are the churtlings of all very young babies, or the new-born, as they are known; item that but the most doting of parents, could be a gift. In every normal person there is the commendable desire to look well, to make a good impression of strength, vitality and being well groomed, thus gaining what is known as a commanding appearance. In a woman, it means being a good impression of beauty, which find expression through her physical form, the appearance of her hair, skin, eyes, teeth, hands and
To attain charm a woman requires two qualities, personality and appearance. These are both a matter of development. When she makes it, she alone can mould that. Her appearance is largely the skill of others, and her own nurturing efforts to apply a few moments each day to her own goal to improvement. To climb the ladder of beauty should be the aim of every woman, in such a way that she may arrive at the comosus rung, possesses the means to accomplish this means work, constant and unremittent, and determined effort.

If your hair is very fine, sickness, worry and anything that hurts it stiffens and can make the bloody will cause the hair to fall and be grayed. MISS RUSSETT - You complain of a dull and lifeless brown. You can certainly improve its appearance and give it a rich glow by a Henna rinse. You can package of Henna leaves in a pint of boiling water and strain. Then pour, while as warm as can be borne, over the oil and parchment, partially dried but yet damp. Return the mixture from the bowl to your hair several times. Dry hair without the aid of a towel.

ALOVE STORY
Elizabeth Brown's eyes fashed and she threw the note from her angry, then picked it up at the inquiring look of her mother. Read that," she commanded hotly. Mrs. Brown took the letter and read it meekly. It was brief. He looked at the house. It is down in the country and near the seashore, and has pizzas and an old apple orchard; in short, is an ideal home for a young married couple, and to mo-orrow and go to details more fully. Fautifully yours, "JAMES GRAHAM" Mrs. Brown looked up with a pleased smile and told details he had gone so far. Elizabeth, she said cagely, "that you were engaged. When did ____" "We are not engaged," staring. "Sorry, I have thought Mr. Graham a very pleasant man, and have liked him and he has called on us quite often later. But there has never been a word of—or even a word of—possibility. It is positively insulting. Mother, we must commence packing at once, and move this very afternoon." "Why, child, we can't," in startled calmness, "will take a week at least to know."
"I know we shall be out of this house before night" he rehearsed. "I shall go and engage in moving the station, and I will have them taken to the little station just beyond the limits of the town." It will cost a little money to trace our whereabouts. Mr. Graham will be here to-morrow to go into details—the preseumptuous people and valuables. I shalloke to him about our plans to stay a summer place for the season. Now mother, you go and pack your clothes and valuables. I shall tell you the time in an hour, and we must be ready."
"Yes, dear," meekly. "But where shall we go?"
Why, to—to—oh anywhere. It depends on matter. Suppose we trust that place where we had the two weeks' outing last summer—Orchardville, you know, it's real country there, with solitary walks and people coming in with things to sell. Rent must be cheap there, and by offering enough we can get some sort of house. Or, if we can't, we'll get one or two rooms. How we haven't time to engage one ahead now.
"Orchardville is where we first met Mr. Grisham, isn't it?"
You believe we are right, mother. But you know he told us he was just down there for a few days fishing, and that he didn't get a bite; of course, we never go fishing twice in the same place, where they have had no luck. Now please burry mother.
The next afternoon they were pretty wine-cooled cottage, super-intending the removal of their goods from the local delivery wagon. The indignation still burned in Elizabeth's eyes. Brown looked tired.
"I do hope we can stay here, Elizabeth," she sighed: "but the postmaster seemed slow in giving up me when he didn't promise us the house for sure." "We'll stay all right, mother, don't you worry. The house was to rent for a few years, but we deserve for prospective tenants. What if the owner did write to him about the old maid who was looking after a place for some young friends, and we didn't want to see her and see this. She husts put in an appearance yet, nor her young friends, and we were the first real applicants, and we were the first real applicants, and I was threw enough to force as. advance rent into the postman's hands. Now help me swing this hammock on the plaza here and when you lie down in it I won't hurt you."
Two days later they were settled and the furniture was all arranged. Mrs Brown was lying in the hummingbird bed, gazing pensively at Elizabeth, who had stopped reading and was now contemplating the closed hook in her lap with unseen eyes. There were solitary walks about the house, the walks represented the social condition of the place. The previous summer's outing had been pleasant, because there had been companionship to make it

The gate latch clicked and Mrs Brown was aroused by a stifled exclamation from Elizabeth. Coming up the walk was James Graham, a middle-aged woman who was apparently refusing to be convinced.
"Taint the kind of house I want, Mr. Graham," she was saying. "There must be a bay window in the end for Della's plants, and willers in front for her 'Tommy to set under.' She said I needn't look at a place without the willers. I can show you through the house. Miss Brown," urged Graham. "I am sure you will like the arrangement, and there is a she willem in the back door under. There wasn't the to go to my agent after the key, but I can get in one of the windows and open the back door from the inside. 'in arms.' But the woman seemed short, timid and started back toward the gate. "Willers in front," she repeated aggressively. "Them's the last words Della said, so use Mr.
Graham wutched her through the gate and up the sidewalk toward the station, and then turned again to "Might as well run through it while I'm here." they heard him say, then, "Why, hello! looks as if I'm going to be at the windows and,," as he came a few steps pearer, "hammock swung on the plaza, and—great Scott! Elizabeth—Miss Brown. You were the one demanding." Elizabeth was at the head of the steps now, an odd light in her face, "Who was that woman, Mr. Graham demanded," "Betty Johnson, queer stick who is looking after a house. A friend recommended her to me as a joke, and I determined to retaliate by no action, but have noticed how I failed. But is it really possible that you have rested my house from the postmast?" "We really have," Elizabeth angrily said, "we did not dream it was yours."
"An uncle gave it to me several months ago, and you are my first tenant. It's jolly that you are the best of all summer. I like the place and have planned to come down after a few days for a long stay; but I did feel a little apprehensive about the social vacuum. It's add, though, Browning. I knew that of your coming. I —" He paused abruptly at something he saw in her face, adding suspiciously: "Did you get that letter men sent to you? She said she never reached her?" "Yes," as the color swiftly to her face, "I see you did." He hesitated a moment, then leaned toward her boldly. "Support Elizabeth, just as it was written," he whispered. "It's what I really would have sent to you, had I dared." Elizabeth tried to frown, but the young man heard the new Tango song. "No-what's that?" "Tanganna Rain No Mo."
A pessimist is a man who complains because he has to pay the bills, and he wields on a million dollars willed to him by a distant relative.

The Santa Claus Myth
Is it your turn, Mothers, this year to tell your little one about the Santa Claus myth? If the babyhood days of your children are over and they have begun to doubt the reality of Santa, then to retain the absolute confidence they have in you, it is your duty to tell them the truth.
It may seem hard to shatter all their happy dreams of good old Saint Nick but read how easy after all it was for this mother.

A SHORT STORY (Lincoln News Service)
I felt somewhat ill at ease as I entered the smoker, which seemed to be filled with a de luxe group of travellers rather than the human mixture of diversified personalities which is usually found on the road. At my left there sat a gent, who looked as though he might be a gentleman, and in the corner next to him there was reclining a traveler resplendent in full dress. Standing near the wash basin was a gentleman, and in the corner next to him might have been a diplomat or a minister of state. He was fultifully attired in frock coat and other aristocratic wear, and other barbarous gaites as though it was made of flesh and blood. "Here" thought I "is where I am in dead wrong, so far as companionship is concerned. So on my pike I put on a white, I will do far better to seek the humble atmosphere of the day coach smoker. So on my pike I put on a white, I will do far better on my way toward the entrance to the smoker, I observed an unmistakable sign of my secret order, flashed at me by the foreigner, which I could
"Dardon me, sir," he said, in the purest of English. "but you look like one who has a splendid knowledge of human elements. You wear a clairy, and tarry a while with me." "Guess you're wrong." I sputtered at him, conscious of clumsey speech and a moment of perplexity. Just as I was about to add much about other people, I added, in a trembling voice. "That's just it!" the foreigner continued, pleasantly. "My friend is a possessible banker and the gent in full dress" have just entertained me extensively, but all has been far different from what I have always expected of Americans of our time. We were a free careless society, void of social differences, and hearty associates in all things." he concluded in a voice of the clearest musical tone, while the builer and his companion looked up in nothing.
"My friends," said the foreigner, "have been most hospitable, but their hospitality has been so good that old English tutor in dear old Mexico. So I told them I was going to hall the first person whom I saw wearing the emblem of the United States. They needed to remain silent while I conversed with him — and you are he," the foreigner added with a hush. "Charlotte asked me. "You know what they mean —" "But what can I do for you, my brother?" I interrupted. "I said, "Were you born in America?" "Right in Virginia." "Ah, then, you are a real American," said the man whose name came from afar.
And the foreigner turned to his handsomely-attired companions and said: "Gentlemen, I thank you for your courtesies, but our association ends here. I will be happy to help such as you have proposed; for, in turn, you would do my people worse than you have done your own." Turning to me, he said: "Good light, my brother. I trust we may meet again." And before I could thank him, he had gone.

Ralph Matthews
When comes December I always remember
‘The days when 1 was a kid;
low grandme and aunty told me about Santa
And the wonderful things that he did.
Some times 1 would ponder how he came from up yonder
From his home mid the ice and the.snow;
How he circled the world. knew each boy‘and girl,
But of course J believed it was so. - .
Even now that I’m older and life like a boulder,
Has crushed and caused me to bow;
Although I'm forsaken, my faith is unshaken
I believe in Santa Claus now. 7
At this time of year I leave sorrow and care,
For the mythical land I entrain;
My thoughts take me back to that little old shack
And I'ma child once again.
‘My hair has turned gray yet on each Christmas day,
I am smiling and happy because
in spite of ‘the years and trouble and cares,
I keep believing in Sarta Claus,

Kelly Miller Says
President Coolidge made a kindly mistake: in in-
timating to the country. that customary conditions should
not be upset altho they violate the rights of citizens
and thwart the fulfilment of law. To emphasize ra-
cial public policy, might frustrate justice and equity.
Within a°few weeks the segregation covenants
will be brought before the supreme Court. Let us hope:
that the well intended words of the President will not
be quoted to our hurt before this final tribunal.

The November meeting of the Parent-Teacher Club was held at the school on Monday, November 11, at 1:30 a.m. early hour for conferences with the teachers.
Meetings by President, Laura D Winehart, brought to view the realization of many plans worked out by the Parent-Teacher Club.
Francis Wood, supervisor, was the speaker of the evening. The Federation and in his opinion the organization is worth while. The main thought was that the goal is to save savings and that the goal is missed unless all are saved. Schools must be a central head and efficient force, and the length of time the compulsory age depends upon what the teachers have already done. Other speakers were Harry T. Pratt, principal; William H. Proctor, George H.

T. O. B. A.'S YOUNGEST Union Of Church And DIRECTOR IS BUT 19 State Liberia's
Walter Pichon Refeused Double His Present Salary To Leave Company
NEW ORLEANS FOLK
SAID TO STICK CLOSE
Is Also Arranger And Transposer For The Present Company
Walter Pichon, pianist and musical director with the "Tolkil of the Town company" in Seattle, is one of the youngest musical directors in the country. His playing of the piano is a reputation that has him in the front row of any on the circuit on which he is travelling. Pichon's home is in New Orleans in which city he began his studies. He pursued his studies there until recently when he accepted his present position. He was offered double his present salary to remain in New Orleans. So he and Sara but showed a decided characteristic of New Orleans folks, who are said to "stick" to one another. Most of the other members of the company came from the New York City area.
The youthful director is only 19 years of age, but directs the chorus like a veteran. He is often called upon to arrange and transport the sie for the other members. Needless to say he has proven equal to the occasion.

Notwithstanding the great help that the mission schools have been to Liberia educationally, they must also be the powers that are at the present time accord to them the welcome, they should have, nor made them secure in the freedom of action which they must possess in order to do their best.
Early in 1923 the missionary group working in Liberia was thrown into a furore of excitement over an order issued by the missionary requiring all missionary teachers to procure a license from the Department, and pay annually a fee of $3 and at the same time forbidding the use of tobacco other materials furnished through the Department.
So determined was the stand taken by the missionaries, however, who threatened to use the field, the field of Liberian citizens were the scheme was soon dropped. However, the Board of Education has just put over a scheme that links up the missionary school with that is an unworkable as it is unwise. Since it applies only to the work in Monrovia present, many think that it aims only to defeat the plans of the new school which Bishop Brooks has o
A brief statement of this scheme will perhaps make clear the thought behind the decision to divide the City of Monrovia into four school districts, requiring the children to attend the school district in which they live until they have completed the eighth grade: District No. 1 includes the thickly populated section of the Episcopal Day School is located: District No. 2; also thickly populated, is taken care of by the elementary department of the Col-

It is hardly necessary to add, however that this scheme does not meet with the approval of the great mass of the church.

In good work the educational character of the whole scheme.

City Editor Got Story Confused With Chicago Man, He Says
The Rev. John Matthews, 556 Oxford street was not the "sepistil" doctor unused of accepting $1.50 in return for bringing a man's wife back to him, it was learned this week.
The error grew out of confusing a part of the story carried of the conviction about the same time of Richard Robinson of Chicago who was the man who accepted the money and was given six months on false account. Was Business Troubles The Rev. Matthews troubles in the court recent grew out of a business transaction wherein he was unable to complete a contract in time, he says. The case was set in the court when he received to complete the satisfaction of the bill. Failure to seize laborers delayed his work and caused delay.

Typhoon Dance Reveal Boys Also Like Flashy Clothes
That boys cater more to flashy dress than girls was revealed at the annual dance given by the Typhoon Social Club at Moses Hall Tuesday night. The Typhoons, who have a large following among the younger set are a club of young women students of Douglass High School. But for the many varied types of boobed hair the female patrons did not depart very far from the usual styles of feminine attire. But the boys were garbed in the latest London, or probably Broadway fashion. Coats cut short with large lapeis, collars snug made all the more so by tightly drawn ties of many hues, trousers large and roomy, completely covering shoes of a repulsive vol-

For any closed car you will pay almost as much as the Essex Coach costs. So why accept any performance short of a "Six"? In Essex you get qualities of the "Six" not found in any "Four". And equally important, you get the famous Super-Six advantages exclusive to Hudson-Essex.
Quality made Essex, with Hudson, the largest selling "Six" in the world. That volume permits economies, which are passed on to buyers in a price way below any rival.

JOHNS HOPKINS GETS BLACK EYE IN WILMINGTON
School Principals Vote Unanimously To Bar Hopkins Extension Course
HOPKINS WANTED TO DRAW COLOR LINE
Action Would Have Put 24 Colored Teachers Out Of Classes
Johns Hopkins University received a black eye in its effort to carry jim crow into Wilmington, Delaware, Public Schools, says the current "Crisis."
Hopkins, which in its University bars colored people and in its hospital subjects them to the worst imaginable species of jim crow, had been invited to conduct extension courses for the Wilmington public school system. The Crisis says: "The University notified David A. Ward, Superintendent of Schools of Wilmington that it was against the John Hopkins pupils to admit Negroes in its courses and Superintendent of Schools the 24 teachers registered in the course advising them to withdraw since they were 'ineligible.' The Crisis account then continues: "Such indignation manifested in the suggestion that he be accepted in the suggestion of Principal George A. Johnson of the Howard High School (colored) to call together the principals of the 20 schools of the city to advise them of the situ-
Superintendent Ward informed them that there were 24 teachers (colored) who were affected, politically, by the school he might be to have the course excluded or to allow only those who were eligible to enter. He also discharged any staff affected by John Hopkins, Mr. George A. Johnson principal of High School speaking for the principals pointed out that they were affected by this action; that the entire city of Wilmington was affected by this action inasmuch as John Hopkins was attempting to impose his policies into Wilmington through the sanction of the public schools; that to single out any group and deny the rights of race was indeed embarrassing and compromising.
Principals Act
Mr. Channing Wagner principal of the Wilmington High School (white) moved that insult as the student part of the teaching force insulted Mr. Hulkins ex-Wilmington that it be rejected without further consideration. The insult was carried unanimously by the vote of the 24 white and 6 colored principals.

TEMPORARY ALIMONY
Want, She Says
William L. Green, prohibition agent and terror of bootleggers in Maryland and Pennsylvania, was made defendant in a suit for absolute divorce filed by his wife, Mrs. Theresa Green, in Circuit Court this week.
Mr. Green charges her husband with unfaithfulness, and in her petition declares that he has been unfully familiar with a number of women whose names she will reveal at the trial. The women were married June 5, 1821, and lived together until November, 1823, at which time she and their two children. Betty, aged deacers her husband deserted her three, and Theresa who is twenty eight years old.
In her petition Mrs. Green sets out that although her husband earns a large government and owns a large pleasure car, he has failed to properly provide for his family. Through her attorneys Gobert McElcott and Josiah McElcott he asks temporary alimony pending disposition of the divorce proceedings.
Was Army Man
Agent Green, who was one of the first men to be taken into the dry riverbed, was a member of the Seventh Ordnance Relief Corps and saw service. In France, he is well known here in Baltimore where for several years he operated as a prohibition agent. For the last three years, he worked the unit in Philadelphia and is regarded as one of the best officers in the service. Mrs. Green was formerly a native of Palatine, and is an accomplished musician.
