C.—Two teachers of Domestic Art in Armstrong High School are holding positions illegally according to Miss Mab Jackelson, a former law school teacher and having lawyer in a communication addressed to Garnet C. Wilkerson, assistant superintendent, this week. Minor Normal School teachers require a college degree or graduates degree in a foreign language in school, plus five years teaching experience. Miss Jackson claims neither of the present Domestic Art teachers, one appointed in 1918 and one in 1925, possess these minimum qualifications. Miss Jackson is on the eligible list and her eligibility expires in 2018. She is a graduate of the local high and middle schools, Howard University and Columbia University. the Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly 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. N A A C P Attorney Sure Of Victory In "White Primary" serve to take one of Howard's most Illuminous alumni to characterize as 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. Economy If economy drove these professionals Xsite.title, truth, truth, touched the life. 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." 18 Room School Inspected Washington, D.

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.

OSBORNE LOSES ROUNE IN DIVORCE TANGLE Court Strikes 2 Paragraphs From Bill At Request Of Correspondent OSBORNE ABANDONS FIGHT FOR GLORIA Four Year Old Daughter Remains In Custody Of Ita Mother Washington, D. C.—Mrs. Ruth A. Osborne, of 1920 Tenth street, northwest, met Friday, won an other round in her legal battle with her husband, Jerome B. Osborne, of 760 Fairmont street, northwest. Chief Justice McCoy granted a motion to strike two paragraphs from the cross bill for an absolute divorce filed by Mr. Osborne. One of the stricken paragraphs alleges that Mr. Osborne in view of having suspected his wife of infidelity, began to investigate her activities, but the judge ruled that she had misconducted herself with Benjamin B. Pinn, of T12 Keowar street, northwest, resulting in the physical condition which necessitated divorce. Misconduct In the other paragraph Mr. Osborne charged his wife with misconduct during the year 1924 and a greater part of 1925, particularly the dates of August 16 and 26, 1925. 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 motion was allowed with leave to counsel for Mr. Osborne to amend his cross hill on the grounds that the two were not guilty of piate and improper. The cross hill will probably be amended.

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 All Day Session 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 remained across from the room where it was held. The trustees were Charles W. Brown, President; Dr. Sara W. Brown, Rolfe Cobleigh; Boston; Dr. Michel O.

Y.; James C. Na- pler, Nashville, Tenn.; General John H. Sherburne, Boston; Dr. Murice F. Whealand and Dr. C. Sumner 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 Call VErnon 6016 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.

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.

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.

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."

"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.

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.

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.

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.

Fraternities in several schools have reached such powerful proportions according to reports that these letter societies are predominating school spirit in several of our larger institutions. There seem to be a persistent effort on the part of some members of one of these fraternals to cust Coach Watson as head of athletics at the expiration of his contract as Howard mentor.

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.

SHAPIRO, THE TAILOR Call VErnon 6016 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.

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.

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 As had been expected a few hours after the telephone rang an announcement that the register of George Sponsal had been stolen from his stall by Selvar Market.

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."

The husband had been injured several years ago and cannot work regularly. He had been nursing his wife, but she had medical attention was available. The doctor immediately visited and prescribed medicine and proper diet. She is today convalescing, but the mother was required for a month. 14. IS NEEDED. Father Dead Injured by a blow on the head while at work, she was injured two years ago. A small compensation was received but this was inadequate. She received this compensation ceased. His life insurance was only enough to bury him. Mrs. G. W. K. was able to earn enough to provide for her family of 6. In February her older boy was injured and she was a help. Until then $10 a week is needed to buy the food. Father Gone The mother of James, Robert and Samuel is only 24 years of age. When the worker from the Family Welfare was called, she had deserted. For months he had not been providing for his family adequately, the children were dreadfully indemnounced and the mother was the ill. She is a devoted mother and had deprived herself of food to give to her children. Every effort she made and with the proper food the family is regaining its strength. In a short time the mother hopes to become partially self supporting. Until that time $10 will be paid, $40 will care for them a month. Coal Needed The A family is composed of six attractive boys, who live a normal, homely life, and are intelligent mother. Their father deserted them six months ago and all efforts to help them have a working part time in a restaurant, but it is impossible to earn enough for their needs. A mother is usually necessary to teach their rooams. $10 Needed Living alone in a three-story back room, "Aunt Litty" is living out her days. Everyone in the neighborhood is her friend. She has a history to history can be gained in friendly chats with her. She is the widow of a Janitor of splendid reputation. They are her husband's last illness all of their savings were axed. Aunt Litty can no longer work because of rheumatism. She is on a Bay View, but among strangers she would not be happy. Her diet is light and cost of maintaining her is very little. To cover this for one month $10 is Babes Need Milk Several days ago the nurse in the nearby clinic asked that one quart of milk be sent end and end, 8 months. These children had been found frightfully underweight. The milk was ordered immediately in visiting hours, and the father was earning only $18 a week. In all they have seven children and it is impossible to buy three quartes of milk from the mother, so they bring with the infant her hands full. If these children are to live and have good health, this is a maritime, a better paying job will be sought. $12 will provide this milk for one month. Blankets And Milk Wanted During the past year, Mrs. M. has had a trying time. Her husband-died from typhoid the she attempts to breastfeed the bread she proved too great for her frail body and a complete breakdown was the result. Two periods of hospitalization and proper care have not normalized her back to normal health because she worries so-constantly over becoming dependent. Her six children are a great concern and she is a great concern. Extreme dehydration has been given to overcome her anxieties. At this time she is greatly in need of a pair of warm blankets and a quart of milk daily for several months. Father Dead; Mother Ill Alice, who is fourteen, has just gone to work as an arrand girl to help care for her father for her first year, and her mother is an invalid. She, of course, cannot provide all the necessities. A ton of coal is badly needed here. $60 Needed Nearly a year ago Mr. M. deserted his family, leaving his wife to alone care for their three children, who succumbed to illness outcasted her. She has a bad curvature of the spine and a brace was necessary immediately. She is now able to get about the three children every dollar a month for the next three months will assure her of being able to stay with her little ones. $15 Will Help The sleeping conditions in the *E* household are very crowded and if the children are to have any health they should be moved immediately into the room. Roa are tuberculosis inclined and every precaution must be taken. The doctor says too that a quart of daily each is vital to their health, and neither of these things because of an inadequate wage. 11) $15 will put them, into a new home and provide this dist. Mrs. Rachel E. Barney, Age 118 Wanted To "Doll Up" Before Having Photo Made. For AFRO Just passed her 118th birthday but still with the mind and spirit of a flapper girl of 15, would be a best friend. She was Barney Gurray, 634 Eutaw street, when interviewed recently by a reporter for the AFRO-AMERICAN. "Yes," she confided. "I'll be tickled to have my photo taken for the paper, but you must let me doll up a little for it, and she added a coat of white herringbone" he added to send a photographer when she was all dulled up. Born a Slave Mrs. Farney, who passed the century mark eighteen years ago, was born a slave and remembers that her owner's name was John Farney. She was a girl, and that he was very good to her and had her taught how to read and write when a young woman. She still reads a little. She has been a widow for 25 years and the mother of 12 children all of which are dead except the youngest, a boy, as she calls him, 67 years of age. Fire Generations Five generations of her family are now living. One grand-daughter, Mrs. Ann Parker, is 54 years of age, Mrs. Parker oversees her children, and her youngest daughter, Mrs. Vlora Howard, being 28 years of age. Auto Strikes Girl Running across the street directly in the path of an automobile, five year old Margaret Johnson. 744 Pennsylvania annu. was struck and received minor bruises about the body. Monday. The car was operated by Walter Wise, 1858 W. Saratoga street. Coal, Medicine And Food A highly intelligent mother and father are fighting to keep their home together. If illness has pinned them out, they start, as shortly after their marriage five years ago, Mr. W. Broke his leg. The compensation was small, but they have not been pain off entirely. They now have three children and two weeks to go before their heart condition. A neighbor is looking after the mother and children during the day, but the father's wage of $15 cannot meet these Goal, medicine and $2 will meet this emergency. Old Couple In Need Living alone in two small rooms, Mr. and Mrs. J. are living out their days. To them were born no chilliness, but to Mrs. J. they were in old age. Mr. J. has a chronic heart condition and Mrs. J. rheumatism. They are not ill enough for a hospital and dread the thought of poor housekeeping or cost of maintenance is little. month, it will be a sorrowful Christmas if this assurance is not Father Disabled Stricken with chronic rheumatism several months ago, Mr. J. was forced to give up his job. He had to take care of his treatment and the doctors have little hope for his recovery. In the meantime his wife is working part time in a hair dressing parlor and is partially resting supportively. Sixth grade, he is not possible for her to earn enough for everything. $5 a week is necessary to supplement her budget for foods Blankets Needed The cold wintry nights find Jiminnie and Thomas shivering in their beds. They are most uncomfortable as they do not have the proper bed cover, so they need a skilled mechanic, but because of an eye condition can no longer work at his trade. He earns now only $15 a week as a laborer. His wife is much more thing that she can to handle but somehow they cannot buy any blankets. $10 would fix them up and make this world a warmer place for them. Father Ill A new baby has just arrived in the B. home, which is sad, because Mr. B. has been separated from his parents are very helpful of his recovery, but it is vital that he remain several months longer. This he will need to be cared for by his mother, she and her children, two others besides the baby, will be cared for. Of course, cannot do any work she does, and some time $20 is needed to tide them over the month of Christmas. SIXTEEN ARE FINED IN TRAFFIC COURT Henry Huff, Chief Offender.

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.

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 I don't believe that you would be content if you knew that I was not protected by sick and accident insurance?

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. HALITOSIS I used to love Mary but she did not.

In the living room Stancha was in the 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. "I guess I am," I replied. "My mother and father were slaves." I added, with a bit of feeling; "but then, of course, that's a thing of the past in America, now." "That's what my old tutor told me," replied the foreigner, continuing "But I was in Chicago yesterday and was disturbed to see so many Americans without work—I mean dark-skinned Americans, like you," he went on to say. "And then, I know that secretly my own people have been called here under contracts to work, at low wages—and I hear that these honorable gentlemen here," he emphasized, sarcastically, "had me come on to show me how to make a fortune, as they said by furnishing labor from my own country." I can now see that that wouldn't be right, any more than it would be for me to disfavor my own people for those of a foreign land. But, tell me, please, in the name of our order, if I am not right, in order that I may not accordingly." And, as I remembered how my brother Jim had come back from the War, only to lay around all winter, out of work, out of funds, and without necessities, all because he had been laid off for cheaper foreign labor.

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.

Now and then the silence was broken by the jingling of a passing sleigh-bell, or the protesting start of a motor trying to back the drifts. In the living room Stancha was about to deepen in tissue paper. She was doing up the parcels that were to be sent out of town. There came a hang of the door, the stamping of feet, and little Delich stood in the doorway. "Oh mother," said she, smiling appreciatively, "it smells lovely in here." Stancha Varney smiled. "It's the sachet in the present for Aunt May. Just think how busy old Santa Claus must be these days." Little eight-year-old Delich, paused a moment, hurtled her bomb. "Oh, Mother, dear, there isn't a Santa Claus, now is there? Jane says there isn't, and last year Alice saw her mother and father trim the tree." For one panicky second Stancha Varney felt the smart of ears. It had come—the end of Deliein's babyhood, the time when she no longer believed in a Santa Claus. Now Stancha had been reading of the blow'deut to a child's trust when she discovered there was no Santa Claus. She had been worried by the article's prophecy that she would be a mother's eye. Her child's eyes were of anguish of disarmament; a look of anguish被disarmament at such rank betrayal by an adult. At last a memory of that article, Stancha called. Then she beckoned to Delie "Come here, I believe," Mother's mother was. "I'm glad you asked me about Santa Claus, darling. There is a Santa Claus, but not the kind. You like this, too." "You see, mothers and doudles come to their little children about the Santa Claus that comes with reindeer and sleigh. It's a lovely make-believe story, just like when you play school with a little Ted." "Dellic's eyes were fixed on her mother in interested wonder." "The real Santa Claus," said the mother, "is right in her. She placed her hand on Dellic's hand, and she was so happy that she was so happy. It's the thing that makes you say it's be kind and to make others happy." Dellic's eyes were twin blue stars. "And now, you're new young Santa Claus, get busy," ordered Mother. "You'll have to help me now with the Christmas work. Just put your finger on that string while I tie the knot." And Delicia, almost bursting with happy importance, pressed her chubby figure and got ebbed. The Santa Claus myth had been explained without unhappiness, or disillusionment for Delicia. Something worth while had been given to take the myth's place. Mother paused impressively. "Oh! is the big surprise. You and Mother and Paddy and Aunt May, and all children who are big enough and old to get into the Christmas dresses. Instead of just one Santa Claus there are millions. But you won't tell that secret to little Ted. Will you?" "No," promised Delia breathlessly, "You see, Mother was careful to explain, "Ted isn't big enough yet to understand what we're telling you, and won't be Heart Problem Dear Aunt Dilsey: I am a girl of sixteen and have con- stantly begun to do good. is one boy I love deeply and I am he doesn't care a straw about me.

Thoughts Of The Founder Thoughts Of The Founder The Holy Bible is the repository of the wisdom of the prophets of old and the world is indebted to it for the preservation of the rules and guidance of our faith. Down thru the ages of barbarism it fostered education and progress. It delivered man from the tyranny of his fellows and from the burdens inspired by ignorance. It stimulated individual effort and warmed the affections that passions might be kept in due bounds and that judgment might meted out in the spirit of charity. What would the world do without Christmas? Until 1925 years ago, it had none. In fact for 500 years after the birth of Christ men disputed as to the date upon which the celebration should fall. Some of them gave proof to show that January 6th was the Christ's birthday. Others with equal zeal celebrated the 25th of March. Not until well in the fifth century was there a general consensus of opinion in the Christian Church as to when Christmas should come in the calendar. Yet while most debated as to when to celebrate Christmas more of them prosecute against the celebration itself. Until the years the Christian message has been as welcome as it is today. Always in the world there have been wars, hatred, crime, intolerance—the lil and slim common to human kind. They existed that first Christmas season. Wise men who went to Herod seeking the newborn child Jesus, were told to look for him in Jethlehem and "when you have found him bring me word again that I may go and bow before him." Warned of Herod's intention to kill the young child, the wise men when they had seen Jesus returned to their country another way. No Herods could halt the first Christmas message. "Peace on Earth" sang the angels. "Peace and good will to all men." No Herods today can stop it as it wings its way round the world. Peace that comes from good will among men is God's best gift to mankind. It costs nothing, yet its possession is invaluable. In this Christmas season the ANFIO-AMERICAN wishes for its leaders the peace and good will to all men. Unpopular Mobs Mrs. Lucy Carter, of Asheville, N. who claims she was criminally convicted, wrote a letter to Governor R. W. McLean asking that Mansel's death be committed to imprisonment.

Asheville does not back up by federal authority to check mob violence. The state courts and a high-minded governor have seen to that. Maryland, Georgia and Mississippi haven't such governors and such courageous court officials. These governors make a federal law against mobs not only advisable but necessary. Back To Africa Germany is on the hunt for greater strength and beauty. Other nations on the continent are amazed at the speed with which the dumms of the former Kaiser take the form of sun bathing with very little or no clothing. Germany's blue laws went overboard for men and women wearing nothing but a loin cloth played and strolled around in the sun at summer's end. With the coming of winter months the craze has not abated. Nude sun bathers today are overrunning the streets and streets in the residential section. The sun bathing cult is supported by medical authorities who say men should wear shorts and thighs thus sun baths will sprue up everywhere. Another year, experts say, and the craze will have spread to two years and it will reach America. So it happens that the world which has succumbed to the African jazz, spirituals and chanting is about also to adopt the African loin cloth as an article of dress. The civilized nations seems to be "Back to Africa," but not in the same sense in which Mr. Marcus Garvey used that phrase. Segregation (Chicago Daily News) In 1917 the United States Supreme Court annuled a Louisville city ordinance that provided for the segregation of public property in a settlement. In consequence it was believed that attempt at race segregation by statute or otherwise necessarily would be abandoned. It appeared that public property shifts have been adopted to accomplish segregation without violating the letter of the law as laid down by the nation's highest tribunal. The ordinance also a case that illustrates the tendency. Thirty taxpayers of Washington, D.C. are seeking to enjoin a neighbor form violating a property owner's property. The certain area to colored persons. The issue is whether the court will recognize and enforce such an agreement or pronounce it contrary to public policy and therefore It is an old common law maxim that one cannot do by indirection that which the law prohibits doing in a direct manner, by saying the proprietor owns the property owners seems to be a clear instance of an indirect effort to accomplish a forbidden end. Should the Supreme Court sustain the agreement by ordering the issue of the limitation sought in the case be a matter to students of constitutional interpretation and basic legal principles.

Who Always Uses Word Colored Dear Editor: While looking over the pages of a local daily I glanced this headline, "Negress Rescues Invalid from Holocaust" He wrote an article clinton White Editors gave a colored woman's heroic deed. The word "Jewess" is in the dictionary, but the white editors never use it in referring to Jewish women. Why then, use the word "Negress" in referring to colored women? If anyone can show me the word "Negress" in "Negross" or "Negro" educators, etc., use the word "Negro" in referring to the colored race is not a bad idea. But the colored press uses this abominable word. To me the word "Negro" is as abominable as the word "nigger." Right here let me say a word for Mr. Fred Watson, AFRO artist. Although I've never met him personally, I highly praise his work, for he never uses the word "Negro in a picture" connected with the colored Press in the United States who does not use this abominable word. He seems to be a man who plus enough sense of pride to avoid the A week ago a bunch of colored readers in my neighborhood planned to watch each daily closely and ask me what I was doing, making frequent use of the word "Negress" and "Negro." This afternoon we informed the paper box that a certain daily paper was not wanted. Let every self-respecting colored reader pay as much for a daily newspaper as other races and we are entitled to as much respect. We are not paying white dancers to perform in the same kind of public. As for news we can depend entirely on our colored weeklies for all news concerning us. Let's hear from some more colored readers on this subject! T. Brown 1935 Hankerman Avenue. A white fellow, seeing the AFRG for the first time, thought he would like to read what colored folk have to write about. So he purchased a book and read "Are you reading it for curiosity?" He replied, "No; I like to read anything that pertains to human nature." Now he is one of the many thousands who read the AFRG for Africa and considers it a very good book. A READER, East Orange, N. J. We are in a day of progress but for the heck of unity we progress slowly. We all like to succeed in every event. We all must have the three elements: Unity, friendship and brotherly love. If all the men were one great man, what a great man he would be. When unity comes in, we will have strength then is unknown to us. There is wonderful power in the blood—but our power and strength are not going to be manifested unnaturally, trifurcation, initiative, enthusiasm and perseverance. Enthusiasm is a good starter, but perseverance is the fuel that keeps going. When the little things are done, all else things will be added. United, we stand; divided, we fall. James A. Davis 1435 Myrtle Ave. Dr. Geo. F. Brazz Proposes Test to be Given Every Candidate in the Coming Election To the Editor: We are going to have to have an election in nowhere before long. Candidates for public office will seek our suffrage. The women as well as the men are voters. Candidates in seeking our suffrage recognize us as a lawmaker, get us put this one test to them, and if they refuse to too the mark we ought not to vote for them. The "test" that I am proposing is in nowhere before long. In the form of the Supreme Court is Kentucky democrat. Instead of dividing up on little bits of things let us all unite on this "test" and stand immovably by it and then, there will be justice Harlan. "The authority to establish and maintain them (places-of public amusement comes from the public government and is a part of that public. The local government granting the license represents them as well as all other public institutions. A license from the public to establish a place of public amusement imports in law, equality of right of such places and of other public imports, is public. This must be so unless it be—which I deny—that the common municipal government of all cities conferred on the benefit of all, discriminate or authorize discrimination against a particular race solely because of the former condition of scrietude. It seems to me that we ought to know where every solicitor of our suffrage stands, and that we also seem to me that the many race organizations which we have in this city are of little or no value if they are unwilling to understand the interpretation of our status within the fold of those "public."

FOLDED RAKE WITH GLOW CARS FRED B. WILSON DAY BY DAY WITH WILLIAM N. JONES Close to 2000 years ago in the part of the world we now call Palestine, then as well as now, inhabited by Jewish people, there was born a child whom they called The Christ. Except to a few people whom the intelligence of that day called ignorant and superstitious, he was an ordinary child. Some few said that God Himself came to the world and fathered him, giving him a virgin woman of Judas as mother, but the rank and file laughed and seated the idea and when the so-called funatics of that day prophesied that he would become king of the Jews and the Saviour of the world; politicians conspired to kill the new born babe. Fullfilled Prophesy The world of that day was tired of a religion and government which divided friends, fathers and sons into Pharisees, Publicans and sinners, and they prophesied that a deliverer would come. Real leaders grow out of extreme necessity. Thus came Christ to burst through the shell of sectarianism and cause of His day and declare THE BROTHERHOOD OF MANKIND. If you had lived in that day you yourself would have thought of Him as a female, if not a juvenile. You would have branded him as a radical who thought he could change this world into a "HEAVEN ON EARTH." You would have joined the mob of that day, like you join the group of this day who call our dreamers radical when they dream of a social order wherein all men and women are prosperous and happy and wherein the wealth of the world may be divided justly among those who produce it. HE WAS A COMMUNIST, A SOCIALIST. A BOLSHEVIST. AND RADICAL as judged by the opinion of his time. He was led up that Calvary hill and crucified, not because of his religion, BUT BECAUSE HE WANTED TO CHANGE THINGS HERE ON THIS EARTH. A Better World When therefore you come to this Christmas where peace and human happiness have made wudorful advancement, you must recall the reality of the Man of Gallilee. You realize that our modern humanity, the advance of women, the coming age of equality of human beings, owes their beginning to that Dreamer who was born in a manger in Nazareth. You want to realize that despite the cry of those who say that this cannot be a perfect world; that we must have disease, poverty prejudice, tyrann captains of industry, dishonest public servants, disregard of 14th, 15th and 18th Amendments, drunkards, falls and insane syllables, CHRIST CAME TO BANISH THEM FROM THE FACE OF THE EARTH. You will want to pause also long enough between the flow of wine and revelry, prime roast turkey, and fruit cake, to realize that the thing for which Christ was born has NOT YET BEEN BROUGHT ABOUT. Don't spoil your mind but do your best to nearest alley; go to some institution of mercy; stop some unfortunate child, and help to make Christmas come there. Start A New Year But above all make up your mind that even with all our prosperity and human advancement, this should be a much better world this coming year, and do your bit to make it go. Don't underate the dreamers who say "Peace on Earth" that TIME IS COMING OR CHRISTMAS AND THE BIRTH OF CHRIST MEAN NOTHING AND HEAVEN AND HEAVEN AND OUT OF OUR MEMORIES. Young men at the Y. M. C.

Another Enterprise Crosses The Pale The development of the racial group in Harlem is always interesting. There as in other big commercial centers the race is often more important in the financial ladder of whites. Recently the New York Home News, a newspaper with a large circulation, a large market, and a large policy publishing news of Hurlemites, announced a change of policy and the dropping from its staff of Cleveland Allen, who for nine years supplied news of Hurlemite. H.R. Parsons, its city editor, says "the leave the staff of the Home News at the present time, only because of the fact that the paper has discounted the price of news of the type he was writing." Whether Mr. Parsons means that the Home News has developed to the place where it does not need a man to gather it for importance of reflection and of equal importance.

To emphasize racial 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. For many years after the Civil War and reconstruction, it was the habit of the President of the United States in his annual message to Congress. In calling attention to the state of the nation, he never failed to stress the enforcement of law intended to unenlisted race guaranteed rights. In those days the issue was a dynamic one. The conscience of the nation was keen on the subject, time elapsed, time elapsed. The President's reference to the Negro weakened with public sentiment. Finally the reference was omitted altogether. Republican party we have noticed a revival of the old custom. But the recent references have been weak and colorless. They express no purpose or determination but are useful. The handed indication of a kindly feeling and good will. President Coulidge's statement falls under this category. It has the sermonary importance of governmental authority. The President does not declare that he is going to enforce the laws now on the statute books, but rather to ensure that rights nor urge the enactment of new ones if the existing enactments are insufficient. He merely avers he ought to be left unimpeded by the enactment of equal protection of the law. We should weigh carefully the words he used to be left unimpeded when he asked if we can the meaning they convey and the motive behind them. Mr. Coulidge is an average man. As another distinguished American, he has been regarded as the most average man in America. He embodies the feeling and foresight the sense of the ordinary American. He is the mouthpiece of the common Therefore what he has to say expresses the normal attitude of the average white man toward the African-American. This attitude is one of kindly negativity. There is no affirmative purpose or intention. The brother in black, who will be treated with benevolent indifference. It is needless to criticize the seeming lukewarmness of the president's reference to the African-American has been demonstrated. Let us rather thank President Coolidge for giving us a true photograph of the actual situation with which we now stand face to face. A Helpless Race The President's treatment of the race is in the minor key and the undertone. He reduces the Negro to the lowest denomination in the scale of American civilization. He does not ought to be mistreated by his more powerful white citizens. Moral suasion is always an ineffectual means of his employment and its feasible intention. There is nothing of that robustness of declaration which we used to hear about the enforcement of the Constitution. If the President reflects, as he seems to me to do, the average attitude of white voters begin to think soberly about his jessening place in the political and civil polity of the nation. Ballot A Weapon The ballot was given the Negro as a means of American defense. Every American armed with the ballot is supposed to protect itself. Nobody is supposed to have the time and altruistic purpose to protect In the history of the human race, no class has ever been good enough to protect an innocent person, yet the United States getting ready to abandon the principle of the reconstruction is equally well as in the formulation of the law. It is hopeless to expect equality in its existence. orders, would be kindly to say that horses ought to be protected in all of the essential requirements of horsehousing. They should be housed in a stable or hardy, handily handled. But horses are not a part of the body politic. Raises Question We should understandingly thank Mr. Cooleid for bringing this question to public notice. Whatever President says attains attention, it has remained silent with his usual tacency. It might have been supposed that the question had passed away of the administration in unconsciousness, in such high connection keeps the issue alive. Mr. Coollidge is true to his own nature. His interest is frank. His conscience is genuine and is how Igrant conscience this interest Hampshire hilla. His interest is benevolent and philological rather than civil and political. He evidently does not look upon the Negro as a dynamic political factor with power enough to enforce his own rights. He himself was selected by such an approach as little or nothing to the Negro as a political obligation. He views the question from the standpoint of kindly benefaction rather than political agitation. He re-selects by a slender margin which falls below the contributed Negro vote he will doubtless under ministration question in the political politics which he has studiously ignored in his first and second terms. The professional Negro politician can certainly extract no comfort from the President's words. There is not the slightest intimation of giving the race a chance to function, polling correctly in the forcement nor of the intention to force through Congress any measures looking to the same direction. According to this philosophy, would look as if the Negro politician's occupancy for at least the next three years. Inferior Sphere But there is one feature of his reference to which we are truly concerned that the President did not keep silent. His reference to the President Coglidge On The Negro Statement is Weak Normal Attitude Ballot A Weapon Raises Question No Political Hopes Sage Thirteen Miller Says made a kindly mistake in in- customary conditions should violate the rights of citizens of law. To emphasize ra- ustrate justice and equity. the segregation covenants supreme Court. Let us hope of the President will not are this final tribunal. *customary relations sanctioned by long usage, however kingly intended, can only suggest mischief to the Negro, and may not be determined to fix the Negro race in an inferior sphere. It will tend to justify and extend discrimination against the Negro in the apprehended place. It is clearly not the prerogative of the President to advise or encourage discrimination among citizens of the Negro city is limited to those general relations which concern all allies. *Sensation Class Distinction* To suggest or sanction seism among citizens on account of race creed or class, whatever may be the sanction of custom and tradition, is clearly aside from the function of seismology. The constitution. So far as the federal government is concerned, the Negro stands on absolutely the same footing as all other citizens. Intimation of federal authorities suggests licenses to the states and local communities to pass all manage of racial proscriptive regulations. Gives Example When the new regulations governing interstate commerce was under consideration in the United States and later called upon Senator Forger to put in a provision safeguarding the rights of colored interstate passenger, the valiant Senator advised us that the best we could hope for from the Senate was a provision for equal admission to the interstate passenger advised him that we would much prefer that no reference of any sort should be made to race or color unless it was a violation of discrimination. That if we merely wished to secure equal separate accommodation, we could easily do so through the legislatures of the United States that desired to keep the federal statutes forever free from regulations setting up discriminations among American citizens on account of race or Dangerous Procedure The founders of the government did not permit one word to enter that document that smacked of race. The national population was composed of African slaves, there was not a single word concerning race, color or slaves. It is a dangerous procedure to have the distinctions invade the federal statutes. When the present school system in the District of Columbia was being set up by Congress, it was not permitted to do that; three members of the Board of Education should be of the Colored race. I strongly protested the insertion of this word before the committee on the ground that the discrimination in federal procedure it were better to let it rest on agreement and understanding than to have the federal statutes fraught with race discrimination and genius of American institutions. Kindly Mistake President Coolidge made a kindly mistake in intimating to the country that customary and traditional conditions should not be upset although they violate the rights of citizens and thwart the fulfillment of the law. He rarely unfortunate at a time when the civil rights of the race are being tested by the highest court of the land. He must frustrate justice and equity. Within a few weeks the segregation covenants will be brought before the Supreme Court but the well intended words of the President will not be quoted to our hurt before this final tribunal.

Everything will be changed this year. Old Sigma Chaus has been affected by the modern fids, and his bobbed his whiskers and shingled his mustache. Gobblins and Brownies will scamper merrily about in the shadows as the blazing Yule Log crackles in the gas heater. He has pilled off his boots and red flamed jeans and bought himself a pair of balloon trousers and patent leather shoes. He cakewalks up the firescape and charlestons down the chimney. He has discarded his respirer and sleigh and now makes his deliveries in a flying wheel. He will have little trouble getting his Lizzie on the housestores because they have had a lot of practice climbing trees and telegraph poles. Why Pullman Porters Should Organize. By Heywood Braun in N. Y. World "Before high railroad fares, surcharges, war prices, etc., the public in general averaged a 25 cent tip for a berth and a dime for a porter chair. The prices on all commodities went up, but the tip remained the same or, if anything decreased. Prohibition likewise affected tipping. There is probably as much, if not more, drinking on the trains now than before Prohibition, but it has done quietly and behind closed doors. A bottle is more carefully guarded than a jewelry case. The porter brings the White Rock, slips it through a half opened door and is tipped later, usually in the morning. The tip is for all services performed. And very solidion does the patron increase the tip he previously intended giving. "Experience teaches us also, that passengers are more liberal when indulging than when sobriety reigns. Tips generally depend upon the treatment, physical and mental of the person, for the reason, is largely dependent on how his passenger feels as to whether the family of the porter will have bacon with their eggs the next day. The passenger who has a grouch or prostitus or dyspepsia more than a grouch or dime, whereas, if he felt physically fit on mental happy he would probably give a quarter. "There is, lately, system to the tipping game. For instance, a passenger leaving New York on the Broadway Twentieth Century Limited for Chicago will have services of the porter from New York to Chicago for twenty-hours and at the end of the trip give the porter 25 cents. The porter must pay for his meals, but his own isish, must shine the said passenger's shoes, make his bed, keep the car comfortable, stand watch and guard him and his personal property during the night and be at the back and call for twenty hours. The same passenger will go into the dining car at least twice during the trip, and for a half hour's service of a waiter will give 25 or 35 cents each time. The porter pays half the price for his food that the passenger pays: the waiter pays nothing. "There are some trains that porters are not allowed to eat on at all, and they are not in the South; some are on the Pennsylvania Railroad, and some are required to work at 5 o'clock and he is without hot food until the next day on arrival at the termination of the run. Of course on Southern trains he is not allowed to eat, but at midnight, but he is nearly starved. He is given coffee and rolls before the passengers come into the diner, and very often he does not get a hot meal, because of a large number of passengers or late-night arrivals he arrives at his home station. "As to sleep, the porter on the long runs is supposed to get three hours sleep out of twenty-four, but his bed is an upper one and near the belt so that if he has a restless night, the bell is resilient. There are hundreds of cases where conductors (organized) go 400 miles and get four hours' sleep, and porters (unorganized) go 1,400 miles and get three hours' sleep. They are operating between a New York and Washington, report at 7:30 P. M., relieved in Washington about 9 a. m., report at Washington same night at 7 p. m., relieved in New York about 8:30 a. m., report same night 7:30 p. m., relieved in Washington, a m. report at Washington, a m. report at any one at the office wants to ask him about a pair of slippers or a night shirt or something of the kind, which the passenger thinks he has left, he is again held up. He is not permitted to stay home until The old boy used to have a clutch when he could climb down the chimney and out the fire place but unless he has reduced he's going to find it might hard climbing up the steam, pipe and out the radiator. It will soon be Christmas eve and roll top hose will be hanging around every mantel piece. He has said aside his fur coat and donned a hardboiled collar and a stiff boson shirt. Youngsters will stay up late to get a glimpse of Santa trimming the piano lamp. "Peace on Earth" carols the solemn police chorus as they raid a noisy house. Snow that envelopes the earth like a great white blanket is shoveled from the sidewalks and dumped down the sewer. Years may come and years may go, but the old Christmas spirit remains just the same. It merely costs a little more a case. s Average Tip Passenger he reports again for the same trick. Porters operating between New York and Philadelphia make two round trips or four ways one day and two ways or one round trip the next while trainmen who are organized make one round trip each day. "In some cities they have quarters for the porters which are quite a convenience for the company, as it always knows where to put its hands on a man for service. There are also classes his professional runs. In the way of promotion these are given to the veterans—such rung as the parlor cars to Philadelphia, Washington, Boston, Atlantic City and the Twentieth Century and the Broadway Limited. Though these men are given an assignment, they are classed his specified layover and a relief, any one of them can he five hours late each and every day during the month and not get one penny for his 130 hours overtime. A twenty-five year man, though these runs as a promotion, finds the job and is the man who has been in service for two years, with the exception of a 3 per cent increase given for age and for the supposed preferential from the men and yet they require the porter to spend ten years in the company, with his service before he is given free uniform or assigned to one of these splendid runs." Chauffeur's Aid Elect Officers The Professional Chauffeurs' All Association of Maryland held their annual December 14th at Gaillean Fisherman the election of the publicity agent and the luner guard.

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. What Will You Give for Christmas?
