Hare, Democrat, of South Carolina, made points of order against the institution. These for it is believed, will be restored in the Senate. Representative Hare succeeded James F. Byrnes who the representative has the special district of South Carolina in the House. While he was in the House, Byrnes was the usual maker of this point of order. Representative Huge said no response to items appropriating funds for Howard University, but insisted upon his point of order against each item that is not authorized by him. Louis C. Crampton, of Michigan, in charge of the interior department appropriations bill admitted that the points of order were valid. He asked Mr. Haze, however, not to insist upon his points of order.

Representative Crampton stated that he had reintroduced in this Congress his bill authorizing annual research at the University. Mr. Hill expressed the hope that the measure of Mr. Crampton authorizing the approvalation will pass. In his remarks Representative Hill said that "the appropriation for Howard University stands on a definite basis for future appropriations connected with the Federal encouragement of education. Federal assistance has been rendered to Howard University for future appropriations, which might well be contained in the District of Columbia Appropriation Bill. While I am against the Federal Government taking over control of education the State from the State authorities, I do favor in every possible way the encouragement of education by the Federal Government in its own proper sphere." The Legislature appropriated bill as queued by the House carries a total of $23,849 for Freedman's Hospital. The Howard University items, which were stricken from the bill, amounted to $218,000. By the qualified electors of the Virginia, the four Members would be deleted from the Island of St. Thomas, seven from the Island of St. Croix and one from the Island of St. John.

The bill also provides that all inhabitants of the train islands continuing to reside there, and Danish subjects on January 17, 1947, and their children born subsequently, shall be deemed to be citizens of the United States unless they have elected to preserve their citizenship in Denmark. The first part of the proposed legislation embodies a bill of rights similar to the bill of rights in the American Constitution.

Aside from this, it is reported that Rev. Hunter had withdrawn several thousands of dollars from the bank to finance the church that this shortage was made good by a transfer of funds of Ebenezer Church to the bank's account and giving the church a note against the bank with these causes was the announcement by Dr. Austin of his intention to leave Pittsburgh and take up the job in Chicago. Many of the depositors of the bank were members of Rev. Austin's church who had put their money in the bank on account and it is believed that when these depositors learned that he was preparing to leave they went to the bank to withdraw their funds. **I Run On Bank** Although there has never been any noticeable run on the bank, withdrawals have been steady and constant. In the Christmas savings clubs were paid that the bank was in such poor condition that it was necessary to secure aid in borrowing a large amount of money. It goes that a very small amount of this money was redeposited. The banking department has given out no word as to the actual amount on the door announcement that the Steel City Banking Company, a partnership had been closed. Police protection was asked for and all day police officers stood outside the door.

Attorney Fighting Residential Segregation Says this Would be result If Segregationists win Page Two NEWS I Would Drive Out Of Wash Louis Marshall, N. Y. Attorn regation Says this Would be Washington—Constitutionality of enforcement by lower courts, of private agreements among white property owners not to sell to persons of colored race, was challenged before the U. S. Supreme Court by Louis Marshall, of New York, member of the Board of Directors of the National Association for the Advance of People. ```markdown ``` Mr. Marshall declared that such segregation was the entering wedge of the "Ku Klux Klan," and would eventually be extended to other minority groups in this country if it was not checked. He warned that residential schools discord" and would "tend to destroy that unity and harmony which should prevail in a free country," the movement that there is a differentiation in our courts," declared Mr. Marshall, "between white and black men and women. Jehovah's law hatreds and passions will inevitably be aroused and passion will inevitably be aroused and excalled and humans in American life will have been shattered. Great suffering of those against whom the shafts of prejudice and intolerance are aimed at the civilization upon the civilization of a country which conflinces a covenant such as the deeds here sought to be reviewed." The case originated in the District of Columbia where a group of thirty white property owners, who had conceived not to sell their property to Negroes, enjoined Mrs. Irene Hand Corrigan from selling and Mrs. Helen Cur- is, a colored woman, from taking possession of a house at 1727 "S." Street, Northwest, Washington. The Injunction was issued by the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia and sustained on appeal by the Court of Ap- peals, whence the case was again ap- pealed to the U. S. Supreme Court. Formidable Counsel A formidable array of counsel were on hand to defend the right of colored people to purchase and occupy homeless without restriction of a "pale." Jointing Mr. Marshall in argument was Moorfield Storey, of Boston, former President of the American Bank Association and now President of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Arthur B. Springarn, of New York, Vice-President of the Association; James A. Cobb, of Washington, chief attorney for the appellants in the case; Henry B. Davis, former U. S. Attorney for the District of Columbia; William I. Lewis, of Boston, former Assistant U. S. Attorney General; Herbert K. Stockton, of New York, and James P. Schick, of Washington. "Would Drive Negroes Out of Workhouses" In the course of his argument before the Supreme Court, he outed that as property in the National Capital is necessarily monopolized in comparison with property among white property owners would drive colored people out of the District of Columbia and out of the city of Washington, on the premises of the white owner of property affected, that such covenants are opposed to public policy, Mr. Marshall said. In the case of Guhanian us, Warley, the so-called Louisville Segregation Case, he argued that segregation by nonwhite or state legislation was unconstitutional, said Mr. Marshall, "that where a legislature is prohibited from sancelling individuals may not enter into contracts in direct derogation of the same policy, that cannot sanction should not be compelled to be done by a doe of a white individual in performance of an argument between third parties, which is equivalent to a product of identical results." Mr. Marshall then declared that as it is attempted to be by the deed, it is difficult to create a situation bearing the elements of a contract that is not owned by owning or from taking up his habitation in any State or in any Other Cases Held Pending Other segregation cases throughout the United States are being heldORDON Cobb, chief counsel for the appellants. Mr. Cobb was appointed to the Court in St. Louis, Los Angeles and other cities, and that the National Association of People expected to carry before the Supreme Court a segregation ordinance enforced by the City of New Orleans in connection with the Supreme Court's decision of 1917.

THE NATIONAL CAPITAL ALUMNUS SUGGESTS D URKEE INAUGURATE COLLEGE OF LIBERAL LYING AT HOWARD The correspondence between the Howard Alumni, of St. Louis, and Dr. Durkee reached the attention of the writer On the strength of Dr. Durkee's daring misrepresentations in his answer to the question of the nature of a College of Liberal Lyng at Howard University with a certain prospective ex-president as the dean prospective If Dr. Durkee continues his shameless and reckless policy of handling the correspondence from Howard University will develop a fight to unfortify him as well. Letter Writing Men who are prone to falsifying should never write letters. They should confine their utterances to what they know, and they may later deny any alleged assertions. Letters frequently reach eyes for which they were not intended. Dr. Durks, letter-writer extraordinary, does not manifest the hard commitment required by eight percent of pupils. For example, he writes to Congressmen about their constituents and then hows when such constituents read his fiction. He is sure to write about the light of truth. His St. Louis venture is an excellent specimen. St. Louis Alumni The St. Louis AlumnL, wishing to make an independent investigation of their own for subsequent action, wrote Dr. Durkez to answer certain pertinent questions, their first question reads us follows: 1. On page 13 of the "Official State Records," the Executive Committee in discontinuing the-services of Professors. of Medicine and of Mr. Thornton is mentioned. Was the dismissal of these particular men from the report of your expert, Dr. Leonard? The lacunae answer reads: 2. The executive committee regarding these particular men in the report of Dr. Leonard. Expert's Report Of course, the expert had no reason in the world for nominating victims for the second guillotine. He was a man of the month which he gave Howard University making the most abbreviated, yesterdays list of the victims of American education, to furnish an official sanction of what the house of Lords had already planned. First Answer Correct Dr. Durkee's first answer, therefore, is absolutely true, though it does not go far enough. He should have admitted that his plan was to get rid of professors for personal reasons, but he did not dare to dismiss more than four after the news reached the newspaper. Post in advance of the action. The second question reads: 2. It such dismissals were not specifically mentioned, why could the teacher be dispensed with more easily than those of any other members of the department, and why the record of these men which rendered them less fit for their respective positions or colleagues? How is the answer? 2. The readjustments disclosed the fact that one teacher from each of the departments was for the coming year. The Budget and Executive Committee of the department took a long while to discuss the relative merits of each teacher in each department. Their argument could the particular man not need in that department. Their argument can be manifestly unjust to repeat. Second Answer Any honest person conversant with conditions at Howard University, or at any other university, knows that the faculty would not be needed in about the enrollment of students. No eye but one of Dr. Durkee's could have seen that the services of four professors would not be needed in the summer, during the summer, so though it may not be possible to determine what faculty additions may be needed, it sure is a foolish time to dismiss professors who have had full schedules right long. Readjustment There was no feature of the readjustment program made public that would indicate that any one of these professors would not be needed. Professor Brown taught mathematics, and Professor Lochard instructed students enrolled in such courses. Professor Lochard taught French, a subject which always attracts a host. Professor Locke was a sophomore, and there was no feature of the readjustment hoax that discarded this subject. In the case of Mr. Thornton, his work was merged with his college work with absolutely no of the faculty competent to each accounting, after he was dismissed. Student Teachers Now, this is exactly what has happened. Students are being paid to each class in mathematics and the college, and 10 and 70 students in the French classes. To a large extent, the conditions still hold. One of the so-called "universities" is actually below the standard of the students who have come from Class A high schools. She is as embarrassed Professor Nelson, who is supposed to be the math teacher and the school of religion, as Professor Locke's work. Dr. Durkes has requested Dean Pratt to accompany Professor Nelson altogether to the college, but Dean Pratt is never consented to change. In selecting the four departments from which professors were to be dislissed, why did Dr. Durkus hit upon these particular departments? For example, why did he touch the department of the only one full-time teacher? Why did he jump so carefully around the daughter of a trustee, when he had to make a cut in the department of French, especially when the young lady was in charge of a long-age of the dismissed professor? How Much Time? How Much Time No one cares especially about how much time it took the two powerful committees to name their victims. No one cares about the everybody asking about the slaughter of the innocents. The fact that he repeats it so often makes the writer feel that no time whatever was taken. He names the victims, prints three days before the apocalypse, so no serious-minded person can give much credence to. The time elapse matters not how long it took; it was hard and done exactly according to prophecy. The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly Executive Committee Dr. Durkez neglected to tell the St. Louis Almuni that his himself is a member of the Executive Committee, and he insisted that he terrible slaughter, or he played the weakling by letting a committee or committees unsurp his power. If those committees insisted on making recommendations relative to his faculty, he should have fought stubbornly in his prerogative, even if he lost his host in the lights Under His Feet. Under His Feet The fact is that the committees did not go over his head; they went under his feet. They tried to help him by full disclosure of the information wanted done, but was not man enough to say publicly. If Dr. Durkee and his staff were to demand and dismissals, whether for economic reasons or treachery, he is not performing the primary functions of his office. The board or delegates should have given his recommendations, but no one but the President can take the initiative in appointments and dismissals. Engineered Deal To give the impression that he had nothing to do with these dismissals except as a spectator to false and bad news, he was not a sensible person believes him. He engineered the nefarious action, and then arranged the details to relieve complaints and easily comply with the responsibilities were willing to assume the responsibility to give him. He Argued Now that the men have actually been reinstituted, and there is such a demand that students are now teaching students at Howard University, why is the classroom still denied these professors who are receiving their full salary? Let some arrant hypocrite explain this. Most people are stung by the action. Pro And Cou What does Dr. Durkeo mean by saying that the arguments pro and con would not manifestly unfair to repeat? Arguments should not be apparent in asking. Arguments would be should What could be "manifestly unfair" about arguments showing that these professors should not be dismissed by this slurry inventor of phrases. The public should know by all means what the "con" were. The patrons of Howard University have a right to know the reasons for bad behavior. in a scholar like Professor Locke. He wrote the book that he had served the university for sixteen years without a single complaint that his services were insatisfactory, should he singled out their faults, and should not know why the seniority and rank of Professor Locke did not give him precedence over Trustee Wheatland's daughter, who had served but one year. He have a right to know why Mr. Thornton, with a war record for serving overseas as a volunteer, was treated with such burial inconsideration. It is very essential that these facts be known, and facts to be confess guilt, toward and disobesty. The "Cons" Let Dr. Durkee or his colleagues repeat the "cons" that made these professors victims. There is not one more courage to face the public with this con." A man in a responsible position who will hide behind a closed door more or less despair to stick up for St. Louis to attend in particular and all other honest people in general have these reasons that would be "manifestly no hearing." No Hearing It would appear from Dr. Durkee's statement that those professors were actually tried by these committees, for now else could there have been pro and cons." But these men were never charged with any crimes, the charges presented or insulted, they were denied the procedure that guarantees a fair trial. They were taken is taken without even hearing the accused, such action is called synching. Dr. Durkee's answer is a denial. He also argues stand guilty of America's most serious crime— synching. 3. If there were no charges against these men, why were they not given doses of absence of a year and allowed to leave the country or encounter other situations? (You will probably agree that it is no easy situation for a trained training of Professor Locke to find a suitable situation within a few weeks, or months.) The Stupid Answer Here is the stupid answer: 2. They might have been given leaves of absence, as your question suggested, but the session did not so vote. The fact that you were not allowed to the habit of leaving any time they wished, sometimes with but a few exceptions, I am putting in a partial list: G. D. HOUSTON (Prof. of English), J. A. WEST (to be went week's notice to and that in the middle of the colloq term. J. H. BURING (Assst. of German). June 5, 2007. A suggestion two THOMAS W. TURNER (Prof. of Botany). July 1924. No previous notice. MISSIONARY INSTITUTE, in Physical Education. July 6, 1922. No previous notice. Note the date of resignation of the teacher taking place at once. In every case the President had to meet the crisis, and must address the teacher on the teacher mentioned. It had been the procedure here. If the teacher found, why should the Trustees be? Smoothing Lying Aside from showing how a puerile mind thinks, this answer furnishes an excellent model of smooth lying. When Prof. Houston, resigning from the University, he sent Dr. Durkee the following letter, under date of October 23, 1918. "Pursuing the matter concerning which I wrote you this summer, and am writing to inform you that I have decided to save my professorship, to accept a semi-administrative position in the local school district to take on November first. "If, however, you find it too ill-suited, you may take an early day, I am reasonably certain that the Board of Education is enough at Howard University to prevent my action from being construed as unethical. As we write in our letter, as much as it may be as honorable as my coming. More Houston's Letter "I in learning Howard University, I am not unmindful of the many favors which I have received from my superiors. I trust, however, that my consciences endeavor at all times to give Howard the very best in me, and that I will return, at least, for such favors. "It is hardly necessary to add that Howard University has provided for a formal support of ideas for which the institution was founded, and for which I most canestry hope the University will ever "With best wishes, I am, "Very respectfully yours, "(Signed) G. DAVID HOUSTON." Gregory His Problem Dr. Durkee was apprised of the probable resignation of Prof. Houston as early as August 1958. He took place in November, 1919. Prof. Houston looked after every detail, so that Dr. Durkee had no crisis to meet and master. If he did sit him on the desk, it was Prof. Houston was to keep Prof. Gregory out of the headship after he had been unanimously elected to it by the rule promulgated by Dr. Durkee himself. October 23 is not the middle of a term except in the exaggerated language of Dr. Durkee. Prof. Houston's resignation was perfectly honorable and unconcerned dismissal of four professors six years later. Waring Resigned Prof. Waring resigned on June 5, 1924, to take effect at the close of the academy year a day or two later. He resigned on June 15, two weeks in September. In other words, Dr. Durkee had almost four months in which to fill the vacancy. The only crisis he had to meet in this instance was, perhaps, the vacation of his vacation pupils in New England during the summer to attend to Howard University business. Dr. Turner's Case Prof. Turner's retort has already appeared in these columns. It characterizes the statement as "adjudicated" and congratulates time for a professor to resign. It is the logical time. During Vacation Both Prof. Gregory and Miss Curts (now Mrs. Torris) resigned during the summer vacation. "No previous notice" is meaningless. "The teacher left their classes over night. Miss Curts married in October. What would have been more honorable than to resign in July? Had she remained in office, she would have left her retirement, there might have been some embarrassment, but she did the honorable thing, only to get listed with the "bad fellows" for her contemptible uprising, contemptible upon Dr. Durkee's part to use this young lady's name for an unfavorable example of teachers leaving Howard University. Dr. Woodson Why was Dr. Woodson's name emitted from the list? His name belongs at the head of the list, for he sprang up from the head of lightning. Dr. Durkee had brought Dr. Woodson to Howard to be his educational adviser. After eight months of being advised by Dr. Woodson discovered that President Durkee was not to preside over any university, and confided his discovery to President Howard for records for leaving Howard University. Dr. Durkee finishes his elaborate answer to Question 3 by adding that: Four Months Each teacher had practically four months before the opening of another school year. May I add just here, University? Reading as follows: "And be it further enacted that all other offices connected with the Institution, when in their judgment, the interests of the Uni- When a teacher is discharged from any educational institution, four months is not long enough for a readjustment, especially when the former is not a teacher. You must prevent an appointment elsewhere. One educator who subsequently reduced to employ one of these dismissed professors has already been exposed to the charge. Answer the charge. Not a word has come out of West Virginia. Any person with loss sense than Howard's prize president knows that the trustees can discharge and hire. They would cease to function if they could not. Salary Question 4. Is it true that each of these dismissed teachers received salaries of $2,000 for Alumni and Field Secretary is retained at a salary of $4,000? Why should the blues. The reader who does not hold his sides when he reads this answer must be brooding over something. Those teachers not called back received less than $3,000 for nine months. Prof. Brown received from the University last year, for all services received, for $200 he received from Summer School Classes, and you have $200,000. That means $200 per month for nine months. The Alumni and Field Secretary receive only $200 per month which buys $300 a month. This Secretary is on the nerve training the teachers, but ten hours per day, and not nine months per day. I think he had two weeks vacation this year, but all the while he was thinking, planning and working. ignorant Statement The professors are warned not to take exception to this answer, for it came from Dr. Durkeen's pen. No man who had even an elementary knowledge of education could have made this statement. Take this last paragraph and Dr. Durkeen's poem and you have a stronger argument for running him away from Howard University than has thus far been given. To attempt to measure the professors to Howard University in terms of months, giving them nine is CAPITAL GURATE AT HOWARD Show Hard Common Events As To Houston, For further blacks may attend at the seventive a house in as DRAFTSM York Navy boat N.

By the same process of reasoning, this wonderful Alumni Secretary will accuse himself of presiding himself for Dr. Durkex's time was so heavy on his hands that he actually became president of another school 500 miles away, beginning in the letter and later in the night Federal Express; and is now Editor-in-Chief of NEGRO BIOGRAPHY, with his literary office in Philadelphia. **Alumni Secretary** The Alumni Secretary's job must be nerve racking, for his prime duty is to make peace for his boss, and those are the days of unrest for the boss; but the writer doubts seriously if the work beyond begging donations for the football team and in turn persuading the football players to stand by their "loaf-giver," the grand old man who makes free meals possible for them. This very same busy person has boasted of his law practice, which he still carries on as a part of his busy life. He has also practiced the sciences of his cases. The writer cannot believe that they are inventions. What perhaps Dr. Durkee means is that he has had two weeks of work and twelve months of vacation, following the example of himself. At any rate, whenever such an opportunity arises, he than do the deans and professors, the university is on its way to decay. The fifth and final questions ask for a copy of Dr. Leonard's report, but the professor does not present. Only excerpts, attempting to justify those brutal acts of June, have ever seen the light. For some reason the other portions cannot be published, and the embarrassment to the administration. The letter closes with the information that 1600 students applied to enter the freshman class, but no mention of the 300 upper classmen who applied. The teacher that 127 teachers, with degrees ranging from A. B. to B. Ph. D., have applied for teaching positions. Wonderful! This is all the more reason that we establish a College of Liberal Lying.

To noon today there had been received at the National Office of the U.S. 475,735, to which is added the original contribution from the American Fund for Public Service (the Garland Fund) of the U.S. that the cash actually received to 42,475,735. The Garland Fund at its regular meeting on January 6, received Mr. Johnson's report and voted not only to pay the $2,528,000 to the Association, but also to agree to pay if the association should raise thirty thousand dollars but an additional sum of $5,528.78. To the total is to be added an additional check (or $1,000 from dollars Reserves) to the second $24,000 in raising of the second $24,000 to the Association. The full accounting therefore is: Total contributions received at National Office of the N. A. A. C. P. to 2000, January 8, 1926, $37,475.73; original contribution from the American Fund for Public Service, $5,000.00; additional contribution from the American Fund contingent on the raising of $30,000, $15,000.00; further additional contribution from the American Fund, $5,552.75; contribution from Mr. Rosenwald con- tinent upon raising the second $24,000 $1,000.00. Total, $55,028.52. Amount raised by Detroit Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. for the Sweet Case, generally $6,187.64. Grand case $71,196.16. "For the first time in the seventeen years that the N. A. A. C. P. for the Sweet Case, Johnson said in making these figures public, 'do we have where nearly adequate funds with which we constantly pour in upon us. With the funds so generously contributed in response to our appeal, the trial of the Sweet Case through, to pay the cost of the Negregation Case in the United States Supreme Court, is ongoing today, to carry through that same tribunal the 'white primary' case from Texas, and to handle some other important but less spectacular "And it is especially gratifying that most of the contributions, save in some notable instances of aid and work which they came from colored themselves. They by this response show to the world that they are recognizant of the fact that things they are willing to pay the cost of the justice they are seek. To those of us here at the National Office the atalement goes to do important jobs that will enable us to do important jobs that lay before us which lack of funds have prevented our doing in the past, and secondly in peres of the work, we have undertaken of scrupulous care and integrity in handling funds and of efficiency in doing the tasks which came to us is appreciated by the public. An equal sum raised each year for defense, so that the time may not be far off when no man or group will be able to defend the Negro, feeling that he can be done with impunity." RECORD PLATES MERELY LEASED WITH COMPANY Newark, N. J.—When Chandler Owen makes the statement that the Black Swan Photograph Company, and Island andonomous company are "parallel," cases he makes a statement that it obviously and unqualifiedly untrue. Mr. Owen, either distorts the truth willfully, or he does a reasonable ignorance of the facts. Now what happened to Black Swan? See if there is any parallel here. With the coming of the radio the demand for phonograph records fell off within two years according to the book "The Swan began bus. buses in 1921 it had no competition from the White Companies, none from the radio and the wholesale price of records was 60 cents. By every White Company making records had felt the slump in the industry so much until the slump in practically specializing in the Singers. Regular reaching its stride and popular records could be bought anywhere for 49 cents retail. I decided were no other Colored Companies in the business and I had to go to whites if I wanted to sell. note the difference there. And if a child were with white pelle business then Mr. Owen might also be indicted. Whites Were Hard Hit Too But the White Companies were also hard bit themselves, and body could not now would. I finally could not sell our record plates from which records are made, to the Paramount Company, in consideration of some cash and a monthly royalty payment, a piece of salesmanship under the circumstance. I have ev- ery reason to believe. When bus- pass conditions got worse and the Paramount could not make their contract with us pay, we took back our plates and we have them now. If conditions arose tomorrow and by it would become available to togain make phonegraph records we could take up right where we left The corporate identity of the Black Swan Phonograph Company was not affected in anyway. It was not nierged with the Paramount and nobody ever claimed that it was. Not a share of the capital went into white hats and White people do not own it. It is still in existence and it owns valuable records in Harlem, from which it will in time pay its stockholders a satisfactory dividend. And not a stockholder has lost a dollar.

J., victim of a Rhinelander suit with reverse English, was sentenced to the Crownsville Asylum for insane this week. Several weeks ago Farmer came to Elkton with Marie Fisher, white, of 404 Taylor avenue, Camden. She said she was 50 years old and Farmer 35. Both gave the same address. Farmer declaring that he had been a boarder in the Fisher home for many years. In answer to the question by marriage license clerk, H. W. Lewis, white, concerning their difference in color, Farmer said the Fisher woman had colored blood in her elbow. Convinced that Farmer was colored and the woman white. Lewis refused to issue a license and sent the couple out of his office. Next day, Farmer, in company with Mrs. Hattie Jackson, of Philadelphia, who is browning, arrived to the Elkton house and sought to obtain a marriage license under the name of Marie Fisher.

BULLARD IN CONGRESS OFFICERS OF 92nd DIVISION ARE QUOTED Bullard's Charges Called Prejudice Of Senile And Routtic Mind Washington, D. C.-Echoes of Major General Bullard's book in which he alleged that colored soldiers failed during the World War were heard in the halls of Congress, Monday. Representative Martin B. Madden, (Rep., Ill.), extended his remarks into the Congressional Record on the subject: "The Negro in the World War." Bullard's book, which not only declared Negro soldiers failed in the World War, but that colored officers were inferior, was written with prejudice. Representative Madden said, and quoted from a report of the 92nd Division an article which declared the charges in Bullard's book to be disloyal and started prejudices of a senile and parietic mind. Said the Congressman: "It is a pity that a great commander would take the time in his history of the war to occupy the space to belittle men of any race who gave themselves freely to flag. I am sorry that General Bulhard did this. He could have been engaged in a better business. As a commander it was his duty to see that these men, and all other men under his command, were properly treated without discrimination, and encouraged in every way possible to do their duty as soldiers. If he failed to do this as a soldier he should not have availed himself of the privilege of trouncing the soldiers while he came to write the history of their service. "There was plenty of opportunity for everybody engaged in the Great War to do their duty. The history of the war should be written without prejudice. Every man who gave himself to his work should have given it to which the sacrifice entailed, irrespective of his color. I think when the history of the war is written without prejudice it will be found that Negro soldiers did their duty; that they had courage; that they were willing to make any sacrifice, and that if any failure followed their service it was not the failure of the rank and file, it was the prejudice which existed in the commanders who would not permit them to succeed if it was possible to make it. "Might it not be appropriate at this point to recall the fact that the black people have never faltered in their patriotism, nor has history recorded among the race a Beneficial Arnold Representative Madden quotes from the Stars and Stripes of February 14/1913, showing 188 citations for bravery distributed among colored soldiers whom he said had failed. They are as follows: To field officers, 1; To junior officers, one of whom Lieutenant Campbell, of 368th Infantry (the regiment accused by Bullard of cowardice), 4; to soldiers (four to soldiers of the 368th, accused by Bullard of cowardice), 16; total, 21. Four colored Infantry regiments that had few white American officers: Three hundred and sixty-ninth, 8; Three hundred and seventieth Illinois, 21; Three hundred and seventy-first, 21; Three hundred and seventy-second, 14; total, 64. From this source of information we note that this was just one less than the Thirty-third Division, Illinois, received. Are these awarded for cowardice or inefficiency? Sensual! Yes! The black man is more sensual than the white. Four million mulattoes, quadroons and outrooons of the South bear eminent testimony today of the South's sensuality. Whose women, Geneticism, has this ravishment represent? Surely black men are not responsible for this. Beware sir, or you indict yourself before the world not only as a misnthropo but also a buffoon, raised too suddenly to giddy heights of power." The report was signed by, Board of Former Officers of the 32nd Division, Clarence H. Payne, M. D., formerly Regimental Gas Officer; three hundred and sixty-fifth Infantry, Julian Dawson, M. D., Formerly Regimental Surgeon; Maj. J. E. Patterson, Judge Advocate; Charles C. Browne, Chief of Company D, Three hundred and sixty-fifth Infantry; C.

Bill Petway, of the team of Petway and Vanderhert dancers who appeared at the Regent last week, is a student of his art, and also one of the outstanding executioners of the modern method of stage dancers. He pays a fine tribute to Willie Covan formerly of the team of Kuffin and Covan, admitting that Covan is the greatest technician among present day stepers. Petway says that the qualifications of a dancer to the possession of the value of art and have a whole grasp on the underlying principles of the art, which embraces the whole field of tech- nique. Further questioning developed that some of the abacatic dancing, which to a hyman seems to be so difficult, does not require the skill requisite of the others. A good physique is the main asset for many of the "knee" drops and other portions of the routine of the abacatic dance.

There is a crying demand in Baltimore for producers who can produce. There are two large houses that will furnish a promising environment for the production of the film, about the lack of opportunities should cease among men who can qualify. The local field is not the only one that holds out lucrative occupations for experienced men of the state. The film "The Tale" shows now travelling are too small or of insufficient entertainment value for the larger houses. The only solution of this lack, as has been pointed out in this column, repeatedly, is to employ a permanent unit of production and choriates at the local theater. Another angle of producing which would require modest investment would be the formation of a number of companies by folk with capital. Their employment is done after and there are artists unempolyged with capital. In case of others, gobble this up, as they have done so many other opportunities.

It is evidenced every week that the comedians who come among us are suffering from the need of funny lines and situations. Jail food and even (something rarely mentioned in the best circles) bedbugs and other disagreeable vermin are their topics. The play on hair and colors a steady target for their unfunny quips. Like the comedians, the choristers, would have done better if they had said in the country. Each week writers are turning out new material in talk and songs. It would be well if some of the comics purchased some and used them. The public is certainly "fed up" on the sameness, and soon there will be a costly revolt against this stuff of an ancient vintage. Most of these fellows would be funny if they had something funny. The public is likely to think that of Stetson and white, and white or red lip plus threadace jokes make a COMEDIAN.

Among the first to congratulate Roland Hayes and grasp his hand after the concert Thursday night was Mabel Carrison, white, Metropolitan. "I never have heard the Crucifixion song better in my life," she said. "It was wonderful. I'll remember it all my life. I never want to stare at it." "I've heard it sung better," was Mr. Hayes' gallant remark. "You gave me the inspiration when I heard you sing it in London, Hayes wore a corset, lined with Hudson seal for." Frenchs Stay At Home Dr. and Mrs. Milton Franck of Washington who several years ago which gave the tenor funds with which to make his first European trip, came to Baltimore the night of the concerts but refused to meet the crowd of the lily crowd arrangement. Dr. Alain Locke One who did attend, however, was Dr. Alain L. Lock, professor of Philosophy, at Howard University. They spent the night and day together working on a stunt which they expect to announce soon. They only parted when Hines left for Columbus on the mid-night train at Baltimore. 75 Concerts Mr. Hayes' present continental tour consists of 75 concerts taking him from Boston to California. This tour is expected to net him $5,000,000. He sings every other night, using the odd day for travel and rest. Besides his secretary and accompanist, William Lawrence, A. Lincoln, the manager of the Symphony Orchestra, is a member of the party. In Stafford Hotel While Hayes stopped with Dr. D. and Mr. David, Lincoln was quartered at the Stafford Hotel, Charles and Center streets. Hayes sent his secretary, Richard D. D. Mann, who happens to be his cousin, to confer with him on the day of the concert. While there Hayes called him up. Mann was called to a public telephone in the lobby of the hotel but was interrupted by a hotel clerk who and people could use that telephone. Mann and Lincoln prepared then to go upstairs to Lincoln's room. As they were about to enter the elevator, the hotel clerk then stopped him and declared that Mann would have to use the freight elevator in the Theatre Crowded. Downstairs portion of the theater was crowded during the concert. A number of those who stood in the rear room frequent rests by sitting on the floor. One old lady on her way to the ladies' retiring room on the first floor was hatted by two white mails and she said, "You will have to use the retiring room in the gallery," she was told. "All right, all right," replied the old lady. "We were in the same time weeded her way past the two mails and was lost to view.

New York, in the midst of a lull, waits patiently to see the coming, "Barn ville" and "Capital Palace." Phila delphia has the "Plantation," "Barn ville" and "Peacock Cafe," but Baltimore barely mentions her "Club Amble" where the elite gather for recreation.

Entertainment was supplied by Cab Calloway and George Blus while a live orchestra supplied the dance music. On To Philadelphia Over at Philadelphia we dropped into the Peacock Cafe to pay our respects to Phil and Clarice, juvenile steppers. The two were captured in the heart of the cafe's mixed patrons. Charlie Olden, formerly of the Lafayette Players, is managing. Phil and Charlemagne are the top players of the New York with Mildred Hart, Sally Carroll, Beulah Lettings and Bertha La Jordan, all raving beautifuls.

Too much praise cannot be given Sandy Burns who is a permanent feature here. Willie Lick has been set with a long-time R.J. Reynolds and Walker and is teaming here with Nora Collins. An actor appears upon the stage and undertakes to speak his lines. The ovation access to him makes it important to be a big-set.

This year, the game was rained for over a period for 100 per cent and are examples for coming actors. Tommy Drew, former Baltimore and old comedian is a stage manager, a little less and Dusty. He had a business and was more cordially received by Mr. Gibson and assured of a welcome at all times. Nat Cash is staging the chorus for Sandy Burns and from all aspects. The Knotty is his business Miss Bonnie B. Drew has joined Sandy Burns in Philadelphia, "Sweet My Day" and "Love Me and Love Me" for the first time. She was called home because she was called for her life. She would be pleased to hear from all friends. 2611 Josephine street, New Orleans, La A Beauty Chorus A Red Hot Show Doings Behind The Asbestos-Reviews THEATRICAL SECTION Where the Professionals Play-Routings Saturday, January 16th Doings Behind T Asbestos—R ROLAND HAYES GIVES AN ARTISTIC RECITAL Songs From Classic And Mod- ern Composers Programed At Lyric MIXED AUDIENCE TESTIFIES APPRECIATION Cricifixion Pronounced The Capstone Of The Evenings Program Programme Mozart—Arla, "Tallie constanti sono, silbert—"Du bist die Ruh."

Roland Hayes, celebrated tenor, appears at the large performance at the Lyric Thursday evening. The first part of the artist's program was devoted as will be seen above, to the classic school of composers. All of the numbers elected voluminous applause "which Dramatic Skill Particularly appealing was the second stanza of Wool's "Benedict die seige Mutter" (Blessed be the happy Mother). (Blessed be the happy Mother.) "When air for thee for thee I'm longing, O my beauty contemplating, Sets my pulses palpitating, Till I scarce the pain can bear! I can feel the flames of passion, In my bosom wildly throbbing, And of peace me cry, And of me cry me, I fear!" The stanza, because it proved that the singer, who is a lyric tenor, is as much at home in dramatic expression as in those songs of a purely lyrical quality.

At the close of this quartet of songs, the ailators in response to their insistence, were entertained with a musical setting of one of the Persian poets, "Omar Khayyam's poems and the allure of his appealing 'scandalize My Name.'" Spirituals and Jubilees The singer chose a number of Spirituals for his closing songs. All of the religious characters were happy selection. A striking feature was the arrangement of "It's Me" by Gustaf Kleiman, white. The arrangement was adapted from a conceived it to manuscript in a fathal fit mood that none but a master musician could do, and but few other than a Hayes could interpret so beautiful.

In all of Mr. Hayes' career, say those who have been closely associated with him, has never thus sung the number. Lawrence Great Accompanist William Lawrence played the accompaniments in his usual sympathetic and technically perfect style, and he was also knowledgeed by Hayes several times. To say that Mr. Hayes is one of the greatest tenors of the generation, he is said to be "Parsalif." All of the remarkable range, control and quality of his magnificent voice were used to give him undoubted pleasure on Thursday. ROUTINGS ROUTINGS Bryson and Jones-Kelth's Palace, New York City.

The audience was visibly held by the individual effort of the star, who endows the simple story told with all of his known vigor and artistry. Charles Gilpin has a rich, sonorous voice, which reached the farthest auditor in the auditorium. After a "c" delivery of one or two speech宾语, one was reminded of his lengthy passages in "The Emperor" in that they held his hearers not by their inherent beauty, but through a splendid interpretation given by Gilpin. Rose McClendon and Barrington were both of whom have had a "war" both of whom, were not given much. But did that little artistically as may be expected. The applause given the actor disproves the statement that Baltimore does not like drama. The Santes, white, opened the bill with trick bicycle riding that plausible. AUGUEE received the most fortunate of notices wherever they have appeared, followed and proved the reviewers were right. The voice of the town was heard in this township. Doyle and Doyle closed. The equilibrist stunts of Doyle caught on as always. One of the most important instructions ever introduced in a local house was the screening of the decidedly trick Third Dimension pictures made by Educational. The auditorium was of read and blue, and when the picture is viewed through them some starling effects are obtained. The audience was unanimously for the trick.

He requires two hours and a half, it will not be possible to present more than the first act with pictures until the mindnight show which will be presented. The first act is constructed along the conventional lines of most of the comedies of the day, and the direct employment of the actors and the attention as completely as any of their predecessors. Any complete review of the shows would be futile without having sent the secretiers since since they usually increase their productions in speed as the plot enfolds; one may safely assume that the entire production will worthwhile, judged by size.

Love interest is at all times subordinated to the tale of the plots and counter plots which formed the political life of the Perhaps the most striking scenes are those depicting the execution of the married priest Savonarola by fire and the banquet at the palace of Tito and Ramola. In the latter sequence the foster father, that is introduced by Carlo only to be disowned by the rascal whom he has so career in many scenes one may see the beautiful architecture of Florence, and there are also shots which have the world famous "cleaning tower" Lillian Gish, in the title role, seems to have stepped from the pages of George Elliott's novel. In the colorful costumes of the era, she sits in perfectly with the beauties of the medieval palaces and cathedrals, such that Tito, the villain, is presented as a fiercely great opportunity to display his art.

Richard Holt & Ann Little in "Secret Service Sanders" FOX HUNSITE COMEDY and NEWS No. 103 Phila., Jan. 9.—Undercurrents of protest have started in this city by the announcement that the play, "Lulu Belle," in which David Belasco is declared to have attempted to outdo the Kip Rhinelander case, will have its premiere in this city beginning January 25th. The drama will contain a mixed cast of colored and white players with Lenore Ulric, white, in the role of a mulatto jazz artist. Its plot is based entirely on the subject of miscegenation, or intermarriage of the races, but is reported. The heroine of "Lulu Belle" is said to be a high yellow who succeeds in beating both heredity and environment. Reared in the "black and tan" belt of the "rcaring fifties" of Manhattan, she sings and dances her way into the limelight of a Harlem night club. Then on to Paris where she wins fame and fortune and a white financer. Mixed tast of 109 Selection of Philadelphia for the opening of the drama is regarded as an ironical toon which Belasco planned deliberately, the report furthers before casting the play Mr. Belasco spent several months in Harlem cabbages selecting types. He then moved to the actors' room, the place, which will rival other musical extravagance in magnitude. Despite the size of the production, every member of the company will have a distinct character and speak lines. Belasco expects to overcome the hostility which greeted Eugene O'Neill's God's Chillin Gun Wings' debut of artifice, handling of the delicate situations. Miss Mills' Husband Colored The study in unconventional racial alliances was written especially for the star by Edward Sheldon and Charles McArthur. There is no credence the stories that say the play was billed on the life of Miss Florence Mills. The play is U.S. Thompkins' pop dance, now appearing in Lowe vaudeville houses. Much secrecy surrounds the rehearsal of the piece. Vaudeville and Pictures Anita Bush and George Alexander opened here on Monday. Miss Bush as ever, looking charming, and wearing two pretty frocks.

McCants Andrews is legal adviser. The companies contreq upon the corporation include financing as well as theatre operation, vaudeville development and film production. W.

S. H. Flick is the This new development will be momentous and in a short period of years should be one of the leading industries among colored power industry organizations. The newly organized system, the Negro theater operator has been at the mercy of the huge concerns dominating the field. Negro theaters have diminished and white theaters operated for the first ten years. In the past ten years, the colored theater men have been without organization and have held on with difficulty. The First National will furnish them, the same sort of service from organizations like the Crandall Lynch and Stanley Enterprises. UNE near Monument Tuesday—Warner Bros.

SHE HAS WISHED FOR BABY IT IS LEARNED Artist Is Now Filling A Three Years Grand Opera Engagement In Nice, France Washington, D. C.-Bas Mrs. Rog W. Tibbs, or Lillian Evanti, as she is professionally known, broken all domestic ties to pursue her career as a member of the grand opera company at Nice? is a question often asked these days in musical circles. It is a matter of general knowledge that the singer who returned to Europe recently, after a short concert tour of this country, has contracted to sing in Nice. Nice is a period of three years, Menwhile Mr. Tibis, director of music at Howard University, has stuck to his post on this side of the Atlantic. Until two years ago the singer had remained in Washington. Her husband was her musical memorial, and she was during many of her engagements. Studies In Paris Two years ago Mrs. Tibbs took temporary residence in New York in the Bronx to teach the teacher-composer. Then she went to Paris and entered the classes of Mme Ettar Clampa, one of the foremost French composers in the 19th century. Patronage of the latter teacher made it possible for trials, and subsequent operatic performances, one of the greatest new works. Wanted Baby With Her In correspondence with friends I has been learned that Mrs. Tibbs seemed solicitous about the baby, and on one occasion she had a conversation with her. Much attention was paid to Mrs. Tibbs by reporters who photographed her just before she embarked on the Beringeria. Of course an invitation was provided to sit at the ships concert and accepted. She was presented with a beautiful Venetian shawl by a pleased passenger, both white Americans. Has Stare Supplanted Home?

"If the commission has any object to mixed, but not exhibited, so say so." "Does it fear that Flowers will defend Greb, and is the injection of Shade into the situation made in hope that he will fight and defeat Flowers and out of the hands of a colored man?

It is more than likely that Howard Wright will guide the Morgan College basketball team this year since the resignation of Coach Jim Wright is rated as one of the best basketball coaches in the East and has been identified with winning combinations for a number of years. His first notable success as a basketball mentor was in 1923 and 1924 when he put a championship team on the floor from School 110. These boys cleaned up everything in Baltimore and won the P. A. L. championship title in their class two consecutive years. A number of these boys are playing in the city now and the success they are having is due largely to the training received at the hands of Wright. Under his expert handling, Wright has brought the Athenians from a mediocre team to one nationally recognized as one of the leading floor aggregations in the country. Morgan is indeed fortunate in securing the services of one who thoroughly copersent with the game.

Noted for their come-back ability, Grace, with "Boots" Jenkins as the main gunner, began a climb that set the fans on edge in the face of the Turquois, matched shot for shot from the floor at long range that had the outcome in doubt until referee Watty ended the fray. He tried with glory, with seven field goals and three ringers from the 15 foot line for a total of 17 points. He was the individual start. HUNT SHINES Hunt, manager and pilot man for the Turquois, was in the game every minute and his marks in fighting mood. His brilliant floorwork and all-around court generalship saved his cohorts at many crucial points. He was aly assised by Wright, Stewart, and Coon and Cock. With less than two minutes to go, with a 23-20 lead for the Turquois, Jenkins found the way to Wystatt and a foul shot by Jenkins, put Grace in the lead.

In the former, Bowman, who was the first and Chuck, due to glowness about, were shut out in their trial heats, and Bowman should have been.

A crowd of 2,000 saw Hubbard's unsuccessful onslaught on Murchison's mark, the high light in the first big season in the metropolitan district. Hubbard, who ran unattached, spun across the finish line a yard and a half in the van of Eric Dawkins, also compounded unattached, while Louis Clark, who ran unattached, a yard in the rear of Dawkins, Chef Bowman seemed to lack a good deal of his old-time vim and dash and the best he could do was fourth.

"Pinky" Clark, another product of the Oranges, who made a mark in college football last year, proved that he was hardheaded on the hardwood as on children. The guard combination of Wheatley and Young, proved impregnable. The Bisons found themselves against a stone wall, which refused to give. Althe Clark and Sheffy were a smooth working forward combine, the substitution of Hill and Simpson for Fife Hill and Clark are old磨 mates in this position. The Bisons, fresh from a string of successive victories over the Philadelphia Flashes and Storer and a reputation of holding the Athenians to a three-point win came with the exsecution of making mines meat out of the lighter Bear squad. Howard brightly complete teams and used the material into the game at short intervals that set a profile pace. However, Morgan, not to be outdone, took the lead and never headed after the first few minutes of play. At half time the Bears were leading 10 to 6. Spears was sent from the game early on account of personal fouls. Washington, who wont to center, outwagged Jones, but could not outump the elongated center. Lawton, Simpson and Berry played well for the victory. Howard worked a passing game, but started to gunnin in the last half when they found the Morgan defense inable.

Sues Owner Of Black Sox Team A suit to recover a balance of $350 from John Rossiter, owner of the Black Sox baseball team, was filed in the Spaulding Company in the City Court. Thursday. The suit grows out of the inability of the owner to pay the balance of a $1,150 bill for athletic equipment. In a statement to the AFRO Mr. Rossiter said that $550 of the original bill had been paid and it was the intention of the club to meet the last payment in financial houses during the month of October had made it impossible. The bill will be paid, he stated. Hubbard's Impressions Of Olympiad At Paris by excitable. There were a few fights in the stands, which were easily quelled. After seeing the ease with which the Latin Europeans were aroused to fighting pitch one does not wonder that they are constantly faced with war. They have a peculiar love of country and flag that is greater than that of the average American. One case was very amusing and served to show the inspiration from love of country. Ugo Frigerio was competing in the 10,000 meter walk. After most of the distance had been covered he began to tire. As one man all the Italians in their section of the stands stood up and commenced passing the Italian flag and shouting "Viva Frigerio, viva Italia", or words to that effect. The result was magical. Frigerio seemed as a new man. He spurted and opened up a big gap between himself and the next walker. Every time they would yell he would wave his hands and walk that much faster. He won Our neck of capable distance runners was very much in evidence. Our best men were run off their feet by the foreigners. Johnson managed to place third in the cross country run, but that was the highest place we could get in distance men or we will find ourselves seriously challenged in the next set of games. It was very heartening to hear the French band to play "The Star-Spangled Banner" after America had won an event. I never realized that our national anthem could sound the way they made it sound. But it comes out everybody present, and that was the main thing, after all. To me the games proved two main things: That we are just as strong in the events in which we always have been strong and that we are still weak in these in which we have been weak. Our sprinters, hurdlers, jumpers and weight men are still supermen, but our distance men are far behind in the rest of the world nations. ire On The ery Theatre Fans Pastors Open Fire On The Peanut Gallery Theatre Fans The Maryland Women's Political Club will hold an executive meeting at the residence of the president, Mrs. Maud Bell, 1222 W.

"Runnin' Wild" in West Oklahoma City, Okla.—"Runnin' Wild" appeared at the Aldridge Theatre the first four days of this week HOP By DEHART HUBBARD World's Champion Broadcaster (In Chicago Daily News) Our trip to France was made without any unusual incidents or rough weather. Every one was busy keeping in condition, and we were like a happy family. We arrived at Cherbourg on time and went directly to our training camp at Rocquencourt, outside of Paris. During the 1924 Olympic games has been to 'o', so there is no need of my retelling it. A few observations will suffice. Many of the faults that had been found with the management of the 1920 team were missing on this trip. Things were taken care of, but the games could not find much room for complaint. After the first few days our meals were O. K., and preparation for the games went on smoothly. There were a few injuries, but injuries will occur in the best regulated of training camps. When the games started the team was in the best of condition. The games were well attended by the foreign element in Paris, but the Frenchmen did not turn out as would be expected. When they were present they were very partisan and seemed to be against the French. Perhaps this is just the observation of a prejudiced American, but it seemed very real to us. The attitude seemed to be against America first, the English speaking peoples second, and other foreigners third. Booing and shouting, the athletes and officials both suffered. Jole Ray Booed I remember one incident in particular. Jole Ray was leading his heat of the team race, with a French man in second place. On the third day of the tournament, Jole, but misjudged his distance and caused a spill, with Joe losing his shoe. He had to stop to replace it and then continued on wan a qualifying place. Although the incident was clearly the fault of the French runner, the crowd would boo Jole every time he came in front of the crowd. All of the foreigners seemed easi- Pastors of the city opened fire on the pet gallery theatre fans at the A. M.E. Preachers' meeting at Bethel Church, Monday. Discussion was inaugurated by Dr. Ernest Lyon, pastor of Ames M. E. Church, who declared that Roland Hayes missed an opportunity to become honored foreword, when he concurred to wear before a jim crow audience at the Lyric last week. Bishop A. L. Gaines stated that he blamed the people who submitted to the jim crow seating as much as he did Mr. Hayes. "We frequently have colored shows in downtown theaters," he said, "and our colored patrons submit without protest to segregation." Stoutenpea, pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church, described the circuitous and back-door routes by which colored patrons are compelled to climb to the peanut gallery in downtown theaters. The Rev. D. G. Hill, pastor of Mt. Merlin, said Annapolis, Md., he would urge members of his church to help the race by staying away from Jimcrow theaters for a year.

He pointed to the contribution that Dr. Carver of Tuskegee had made to the South through his agricultural experiments in the Negro who should be considered a problem. Following the address, questions were asked from the floor. One questioner wanted to know how white people should address color people. The questioner would respond to white leader on the platform indicated that he desired to give the answer. His reply was—"Address colored people just as you would white people."

EU Page Nine DREAM PASTOR TAKES SECRET TO GRAVE Aged Man Preached Nightly In His Sleep For 44 Years Without Knowing It PHYSICIANS FAIL TO SOLVE MYSTERY Unable To Read Or Write, Quoted Bible Without Error FOR Spartansburg, S. C.—MaJ. Perry, 90 year old, former slave, has carried with him to his grave a mystery many physicians strove vainly to solve. Perry preached an eloquent sermon every night of forty-four years while asleep. Unable either to read or write, the aged Negro delivered his nocturnal sermons in remarkably good English and quoted lengthy passages from the fible without error. Hundreds of people, among them physicians, would gather nightly at the home to witness the phenomenon. None could offer any explanation of the aged man's seemingly supernatural powers. Medical man who examined the old man during his sermons, announced that his paucity and respiration were normal, and that he apparently was sleeping normally except for his sermon, delivered with Many Came To Hear Him Many During his waking hours Perry could never be persuaded to make an address. In public and he could never be convinced that he preached during his sleep. The sermons were models of clear conciliation and clarity of thought. Many ministers came to the little farmhouse to hear the sermons night after night.

Hard Times The Contract Good Times Hard Times for The Contractor-- Good Times for You Probably you have never heard a Contractor admit that before. Usually when bad weather sets in, stopping big outdoor operations, he lays his men off, draws his chair up to the fire and waits for Spring. Last year I went to the expense of importing many first-class mechanics from the South, and I am anxious to keep my present organization intact. But to keep them, they must have work. They have agreed to work for a little less this Winter and I will forego my usual profits that they may stay. To you, this means much. It means that you can have that work done inside your home; those alterations and repairs you have planned for so long; done at a substantial saving. And to home owners, I offer easy monthly payments. A phone call or postal will receive prompt attention.

I sang here and singing here has softened many of our enemies has gained new friends for us and bound many of our old friends to us."—Mrs. Laura D. Wheately, 1230 Drum Hill Ave. I think that Roland Hayes should not have sung before a segregated audience."—Mrs. Mary Brown, 226 W. Chase street. "It is unfortunate for the colored people of the city that Roland Hayes performed before a separate audience."—Mrs. Luka Richardson, 216 Dolphin street. "Personally, I feel that Mr. Hayes committed no imposition upon his race in performing for a segregated audience. Inasmuch that he was eminently polite."—J. J. Burnes, 558 W. Biddle street. "As I see it, H. Hayes' submitting to the circumstance at the theatre was all right. He must be supported in his career." Earl Brown, 801 Drudd Hill Avenue. "The course of Mr. Hayes at the theatre was right. Our people have not arrived to the station of sufficiently supporting such artistry as his." Herbert E. Morton, musician, Royal Palace Hotel. "Mr. Hayes was right in performing before a separated audience as his concerts are for monetary gains." W. Hammberg street. "Mr. Hayes should not have violated the integrity of his race for gold."

Church Taxed At Annual Services PRACTICAL ADDRESSES FEATURE PROGRAM Landing Botel church as an open forum and stressing business and religion as race development factors, speakers addressed a capacity audience gathered at the annual Masontie celebration of St. John's Day. Sunday evening. The sermon was preached by the Rev. C. Steptenau, who vividly pointed out the obligations of mason to their own families and to those of their brethren. He pointed that mason should defend wrongdoers as many believers, but that no man could be a good mason without accepting the teachings. Music for the occasion was furnished by the church and masontie choirs and consisted of two groups: the first, L. Beyven led the masontie choir. Prayer was offered by the Rev. E. N. Thomas of Bladenburg and prominent visitors included Bishop James and the Rev. Dr. Steven Lynn. In his remarks, Grand Master Willard W. Allen called attention to the necessity of an earpiece to endeavor to make a means of practical advancement, institutions which provide jobs and positions for boys and girls, make children a more cherished and urged a more conscious participation in enterprise. Grand Master Joseph F. Evans, a son of the late Joseph Evans, 3000 strong, were back of Bethal in her efforts to keep her historic place in this community.

Over 90,000 Negroes in Baltimore and not a single drygoods store, not a single shoe store and not one hat store for the men and not one hat store for the women, we have one first class hospital and medical school where our boys might be learning to be doctors, but we have not got them. We have lawyers enough to have a real decent law firm, we have dentists enough to have a dental school, pharmacists enough to have a school of pharmacy, but we have no schools of this type. Though we have had public schools for years, we have not had private schools for years, and only a few good bookkeepers. We have not one stationery store, not one book store where we ought to have at least three of each. We do not go after the things we might get." The chief event in 1925, affecting the race in America, was undoubtedly, the united country-wide fight against race segregation, waged under the direction of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Prior before have colored people thrived within America United in a single fight of such proportions. It involves the right of individuals—not necessarily colored—to buy and sell property in neighbors despite city regulations defining certain sections as white or colored; despite certain classes written into deeds of the property by former owners, the sale to or occupancy by colored people. The National Association has carried the Washington segregation case to the Supreme Court. The New Orleans has also been appealed to the highest court of the land. The eyes of the nation are upon Detroit, where Dr. Ossian H. Sweet and eight others are murdered and a number of a white mob attacked their home. The Association raised a $65,000 legal defense fund to prosecute these cases, and accused as its attorneys Moorfield Storery, Clarence Darrow, Arthur Garfield Hayes, and Arthur Spingarn, are among white friends, whose services were every national organization meeting in 1925 imported President Coolidge to abolish segregation in government. With the help of Singer's Washington and from Hampton Institute walked out of the Washington, D. C., Auditorium at the meeting of the National Conference colored people had been given Jim crow seats. The management of Roland Hayes, in Washington Tuesday, was forced to resign or be removed from the conference. In no previous year has the segregation institution not been killed, but it is in a bitter struggle, and 1926 has wilted. We will not be all hope will be war to the death. "Rolling" Hayes Mr. Roland Hayes sang to a jim crow audience in the Lyric Theatre last Thursday night but not until he had put his stamp of disapproval upon it. He had a hall of fame by inducing to sing at all, but he passed it up and went away with a $2,000 cheek and the shreds of his self-respect. Mr. J. H. N. Waring, Jr., principal writing in last weeks AFRO-AMERICAN in answer to the question of what was the most important event for the colored man in 1925, said: "Self-respect is the factor most essential to an artist lacking in the day." colored people today. The case of Mr. Hayes indicates how difficult it is to maintain self-respect. Mr. Hayes, born in Georgia, but educated in Tennessee and New England, easier to get a man out of the country than to get the country out of a man, the singer he has reached the top of his profession. His name as an artist of highest rank is as secure. abroad as it is here. Voice, color, and style have been developed in him to the greatest degree. Yet the education and the training of so fine an artist have not developed his in ability. What he knows when he is insulted. All of the shame in this case does not are whites like Mrs. Kate Willey Green, the booking agent, and Walker Garland, music critic of a morning one part of the theatre is as good as the other. If they are sincere in what they say, we have only to remark that their ignorance is abysmal. Then there are some of our own friends living only in the present. They are represented by one lady who had al- ready learned of the segregated seating.

Buncombe Out in Chicago where Governor Ritchie made the principal address at the Jackson Day Democratic dinner, politicians declared the Governor's his eye on the presidential nomination. Here in Maryland we know better. Governor Ritchie has been at Annapolis for a third term. He merely went out to Chicago for a halo and the national political limelight which might dislike his enemies at home since he announced himself. Until two years ago, no Maryland governor was able to succeed himself. Mr. Ritchie is the exception. He is the governor who goes on the goals chal by three score, and his second by a majority of 20,000. While he is in the business of smashing precedents, he seeks to do a good job by remaining also for The voice of Maryland was not the voice of the country and just three years later, 1865, Congress passed an Amendment abolishing slavery. The other day Governor Ritchie represented Maryland as he made his plea for state rights at the Jackson Day dinner. Among other things he advocated the democratic party has always stood for the rights of the states, because it believes that through local self-government we can ensure that government and best preserve individual liberties. It has always feared the dangers of unnecessary and excessive centralization and best preserveangers are apparent to all men. "The life of a law is its enforcement. No law is in fact a law unless it can be enforced. A law resting power on the moral discretion be enforced until the moral consent and conscience of those to whom the law applies approves it. Such a law must reflect the convictions of society and be an armed by the will to obey. "Whenever a law not measuring up to this standard is made applicable throughout the country, it is important in which the people or a majority of the people refuse to give it social sanction, then that law will not be observed and cannot be enforced in those communities. "One would think the fifteenth amendment was sufficient proof for this. There is no doubt that the states are a whole favor the enfranchisement of the Negro, and the law of the land enfranchises them. But conditions and local policies are against it. The law has made no social sanction there. Hence, it is not observed and becomes simply a dead letter. Gitchie's Jews are apparent and real." 1. The Civil War settled the right of the majority to rule and to enforce the constitution upon the inferior. 2. The fact that a law is not enforced is no proof that it cannot be enforced. 3. North Carolina and Mississippi arrest and punish mobs of lynchers who kill a man without a trial. It shows no interest in demanding punishment of the mob which broke into Snow Hill jail recently in an attempt to lynch Joshua Tillery. 4. In what respect can the 15th Amendment granting colored people the right to vote—be regarded as a law restricting the personal freedom of Southern whites that platform has seen with us over a century. It has always been the refuge of one state or a group of states hostile to sections of the Constitution, and it has been the antithetic contest in which it has engaged. Beginning with Pennsylvania's attempt to avoid payment of a federal tax on whiskey in 1783, and South Carolina's tariff laws in 1832, the states right crowd opposed the right of Congress to regulate slavery in territories and in 1860 went to war to beause they believed that states had no right to own slaves, they have never won a great victory. We expect they never will. They are the destructionists, the minority, the nullifiers and the seceded builders and constructionists. Posing as the crusader for a lost cause may appeal to Governor Ritchie, but does not to use. Besides, much of the Governor's platform is based upon love of state's rights and much on hatred of federal prohibition agents operating in Maryland.

Just the mere calling of these names shows what sentiment was behind the coinage of the words "Negress" and "Jew Jew," in antiquity classification. That terminal infix means "she," of course, and we might as well say she-Negro, she-Jew—as in fact we do say she-beware. No word is either good or bad in itself. Its character depends on its connotation and on what sentiment is springs from and on what it suggests. Just as we say "Caucasian woman" so might we say Jewish woman and Negro woman or colored woman. It takes a bit more of breath and has a heap more polite and human-like. William Pickens, N. Y. City Sweet Case, Rhinelander, Roland Hayes To the Editor: It is very difficult to decide upon what I consider the most important event for the Negro. Of the things that stand out in my experience, the definite promise for the future are the general claim of recognition given Roland Hayes, showing that Negro talent when genuine will be accepted; and with the charge that the judge made to the jury showing that the white mind can be trusted even in situations of great strain to rise a challenge; and treat an issue purely on the basis of the law. The third event is of a similar nature—the findings of the jury in the case of the very unfortunate Rhinelander Annulment act. These three events are all special in my judgment as bespeaking the dawn of a new day and the advent of our hopes and longings since the day of the war. GILBERT H. J. HONES, Press, Wilberforce University, Ohio. Most Important Event in 1925 Was Striving of Colored People Toward Artistic Self-Expression To the Editor: It seems to me that the outstanding event in Negro life in 1925 was the emphasis placed on the effort of the Negro toward artistic and enduring self-expression. No race is insured against oblivion but the race that develops the capacity to write its record, setting forth in clear, persuasive and lasting form its services and its ideals. The renaissance of Negro literature and art shows that we have a contribution to make that will be recognized. Leslie Pinckney Hall, Principal Cheyney Institute, Pa. Cambridge Reader Bellevue John Ferby Innocent of Crime for Which He Has Been Sentenced to Pen for Life To the Editor: We have a boy in the pen for life by the name of John F. Terby, and what did he do? Come to Cambridge, Mid., and you will find out, not from the colored only, but the whites. Everyone here says he is not guilty. His lawyer has never put his case down from the time he was sent to prison or has stuck to him in fighting for his freedom and that is the one they could not let talk to the trial. He is now on the warpath for his freedom and I really believe he will get it. If you wish to help pay o fight for his freedom, you may send to him, Maryland, Ken, to John F. Forby, Wm. HAYTH, Cambridge, Md. Deplores Segregation at Lytle, But Does So Think Roland Hayes was Considerable criticism of an adversary nature has been made of Mr. Ioland B. Hayes for singling because of his mischievous lyric this week. The fact that Mr. Hayes had to sing under such conditions is to be deplored. But it must be noted that Mr. Hayes, as Dr. Stephan so well said, as the Preachers' Meeting Monday, is in the employ of a Syndicate, he cannot. I understand, say where, or whom, or sing. It is his profession, or which he had paid hard by work and much money. It is as a matter of fact he singes and sings because men everywhere show him his singing is worth while. He should not be blamed because of certain conditions under which a time he is We must remember that as a race, two are slow to recognize our artists in any line. We must not forget the boy by whom he was an elevator boy, and nobody of our race gave him any attention until Howells, the white novelist, discovered him. Mr. Howells was a world. Then we began to open our eyes and call him our own. I understand that some years ago Mr. Howells from his own people in this city that was due him as an artist, duo perhaps to their lack of proper artistic appreciation. Was he, too, first taken in this duo appraisal as one of our own? To the Editor: To the Editor: To the Editor: to the Editor: But this thing we should also remember, that a genius does not belong to and amuse of the human family, and should not be held down to racial prejudice, in fact, he should ignore it and cause the product of the human family, giving expression in painting and poetry and song, the deep longings of Blume the e system, but do not blame the artist. He sells his ware to those who want and fully appreciate it, and not as a race, but a man He Likes Improvements in AFRO Make-up I find your sheet very interesting and rather miss it when I do not receive it.

Published by Allyn & Bacon, 73 Fifth Avenue, New York City. Price $2.00. By mail, $2.10. The sailor, William Targett, returns to England from a voyage in foreign parts. With him as his traveller, he is trying a large basket. You meet the two first on the train out of Southampton where, alone in the carriage, the basket is opened and a little quaintly without crying, a tribute to young-reared babies, throughout the trip. You soon learn that the black man is a woman, Tulip, William's husband, and they own their own. They had an exciting courtship in Dahomey, and Tulip, who is a Klag's daughter, brought her husband a small fortune in gold and ivory. Now they are in a land where the feels like at home. "Our folk are not so merry as the Africans are," her husband explains to his young brother and that makes the grest change for her as she is in the world. "I don't me why the men here do not dance, why they never beat drums, or clap their hands, or song songs in chorus. She thinks we are very in the city, a doga here." She tries to happily assorted but happy couple ends in sorrow. Tulp soon encounters, from her husband's sister, as much race antagonism as she would receive had he been in Georgia. If she had been in Georgia, she would have been no word against her, but Cargort dresses her in beautiful clothes and together they go on gay, encircled good times, such as swimming maked in the ocean, and encircled shock many in the primit town. Mr. Garnett runs along his own way, without division into chapter two part, without stressing his draught. Tullip at the last is pathetic however emotionally it is told. After her husband's death, she goes on working as the drudge of everyone about her, to be used to her and now that she was always dressed in the poorest cast-off clothes her mistress had given nobody to be held at ten o'clock and kept by her to know her station in life and she old her duty in it very well. Her little boy she sent back to Africa might not stay on in England and where he would be just a "little nigger". Helping Education (Raleigh, N. C. News and Observer) That is good news that the seven university colleges and downtown institutes in the two outstanding Negro colleges in the country, has been completed. It is said—and it is significant—that $300,000 of the amount was contributed by the two outstanding Negro colleges institutions. This showed deep interest, called for real sacrifice and as the best promise of the good spirit of the graduates of these institutions.

DAY BY DAY WITH WILL AM N. JONES A very interesting phase of the health problems as revealed by recent health Department will be interesting not only to Baltimoreans but to other cities with like conditions. In order to maintain its constant balance of population in this city Negro mothers must go more often down into the shadow of the children. During the year 1925, the death rate per thousand of white population was 12.84 while that of colored was 24.88. This is the proportion of population by giving birth to proportionately more babies. Our birth rate per thousand was 22.65. THIS IS A COSTLY WAY INEED TO MAINTAIN OUR POPULATION BALANCE. It takes tremendous energy and math to bring children into the world and bring these lives are needlessly wasted the whole racial must pay for it, for that matter in all cities where the situation is the same, the basic reason for this criminal difference in the SECRETION OF GRIMINATION Discrimination along color lines in industrial opportunities which burs race fathers from segregation in housing which forces these low salaried fathers and mothers into alleys; discrimination in city life which spends three millions of dollars annually in the police department for the same reason. AND YET EVERYONE PIOU MEN AND WOMEN WHO SAY WE SHOULD NOT FIGHT OUT AGAINST THIS INHUMAN INFLUENCE and mercilessly murdered bodies of these hundreds of dead babies cry out against it. A New Races In The Philippines Some thousands of young men and women in the Philippines are murdered and native mothers create a problem for this consequent government. It seems from press dispatches the same of this noble Anglo-Saxon blood which has found its way into this brown race is acting quite human and there is fear that in some district be the police of trouble over there. It is even recommended that huge sums be appropriated by our government that proper facilities be provided for the children of these American soldiers. This in interesting from many points of view. In this government has fun things over there and glowing reports have been sent back of the improvements in education and infrastructure that is wrong with the education and environment that would necessitate any special facilities for these not given to the native population. This was forced into submission, has certainly been on the initiative of those who were carrying American civilization and morals to these children. Now that the inevitable has happened and the white soldiers have married natives and started a new race in the Philippines, it would be lovely to animate their teeth of segregation by isolating these sons and daughters of white soldiers into a governmentally favored group. What this government should do is to provide there adequate education and environment for everybody or give up the job and get out. who heard Roland Hayes singing "Crucifixion" at the Lyric-Theatre in Baltimore Thursday night pass him an experience that will stand out forever in their memories. They will perhaps never forget its piercing and throbbing appeal. Brushed and crushed, Hayes sang before a visual demonstration of the constant insult dung daily into the faces of men and women of his group, he encounters an expression unmistakable protest. Philippines "He Never Said A Mumbling Word" Even to kindly disposed white men and women of this generation who cannot understand what this insult means, it must have struck home. The biggest tragedy connected with a situation like this is the lack of understanding on the part of white men and women who would not for a moment submit to anything of the kind, as to why there should be protest and the equally dulled mentalities of some of our own group who condone it. Down in the heart of the South where even good white men and women are forced into an attitude of condoning segregation, they admire the courageous man or woman of the group who has the courage to protest against it. Even there they know that any expression other than protest is a misrepresentation of heart and soul and even the余生余生, deep down in their conscience they have a manseating sense of contempt for any human being willing to condone the abansement of his group because they KNOW IT IS DONE FOR PERSONAL SELEISREASONS. It muck therefore have sunk his head. He was when Roland Brayes sang, "They Fleeced Him In His side.

If these divisions reduce the situation to a close election in 1928, is many believe they will, it may not be out of place for someone of the group to begin studying right now, where it is best to strike while the from is hot. From a practical political standpoint our greatest possibilities come in closely contested years. We must grasp the fact that we can only become important factors in combinations and alignments. But of course our ple counter politicians will not meditate much on this situation when the G. O. P. gives the word. Everything in its place.

SAUCE FOR THE GANDER January 27, 1912—A petition was forwarded to the National Society of New York, asking the ruler to interfere with the barbarous practice of teaching in the United States, an answer to various whites in the United States, who petitioned the Czar for the persecution of the Jews in Russia. . . .

Residential Segregation By Practice And By Law Last Friday I sat in the Supreme Court of the United States to listen to the arguments on the Curtis Case, involving the principle of residential segregation. Ten years ago I sat in the same Court to hear the another form. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, then as now, on the shortest of days had taken over the cases presented by the cities of Louisville and Baltimore, both of which cities had passed ordinances and restrictions on the basis of race. The local and state courts had upheld the validity of those ordinances and promised Court of the United States for final judicial determination of the issue. Learned arguments, however, led the Supreme Court held the matter under consideration for fully a year, and finally requested reargument of the question by both parties in litigations. Momentous Occasions This was a momentous occasion. The mind of the nation was motivated by war psychology and wars were sending declarations to this United States to save democracy from destruction. I vividly recall that Vilian, the expremier of France, headed the French delegation to the United States to make a separate appeal. Vilian saw as a guest of the Chief Justices on the Bench of the Supreme Court, while this segregation case was under argument. The deep cried into the deep. The democracy of Europe is related to the democ- America. Democracy West And East The presence of the French representative in the Supreme Court of this superlative manifold position will take back to France the verdict that American democracy restricts the rights of its citizens on the ground of race and color. Or must he report the facts of the case in the worst is true to the idea instilled by the French a century and a half ago, that all men are equal before the law. The verdict was unanimous. The members of the Court from South and North alike, Democrats and Republicans, concurred in the unanimous decree. In the same time, that it is unconstitutional for any municipality as creature of the state to pass any ordinance or law restricting the right to buy and occupy property on the trails of area. **War Influence** How far this decision may have been influenced by war psychology must remain a matter of speculation. Such subtle influences, however, may unconsciously invade even the sacred precincts of the courts of jus- The present case missed the dramatic setting and spectacular background. Only eight out of nine cases involved the Negroes was ably presented by Mr. Lofts Marshall, who is conceived to be one of the greatest constitutional lawyers in the United States, the first African-American president of the N. A. A. C. P., one of the leading legal lights before the New England Bar. Mr. Storley is over eighty years old, his mind is clear and his heart as true as in the earlier years of his manhood when he served as private secretary for Charles Sumner. The opposition was ably handled, as a party in interest in the particular block involved in the litigation. Many Cases Similar cases have arisen in fifteen to twenty different cities. Cases have been appealed from local to state courts in six instances. In all of which, it appeared that the offence covered units. It so happened that the state of Michigan, it seemed and decided the case both ways. But on closer analysis, it was disreserved that the offence assessed essentially different features. These two propositions practically conceded that it was against public policy to the up property by restricting it, but that it might legally be done for a period of years. Although six saints have decided the case in one instance in which this class of cases has been appealed to the Supreme Court for final decision. Two Main Points There were only two points can conded by both sides—is the decision of the lower court constitutionally valid in this case in policy. The question of constitutionally was ably argued by both sides. The justices evinced keen interest by the flood of cross questions, almost amounting at times to heck- On the issue of public policy the issue was clearly drawn. Our council contended that the public policy set forth in the Declaration of independence and not in the new provincial dejmation of the G2. Klux Klan. Mr. Smith maintained that public policy on the race question is indiscriminate with public policy separation. The two lower courts have agreed with Mr. Smith as to public policy as it should be. The Court will remain to be seen how the Supreme Court will decide this momentous issue. Awful Precedent This August tribunal has before an awful precedent which ought to serve as a precedent for the Court. Money rendered the decision in the Dred Scott Case on what the Court then interpreted to be the status of the race in the effect that the Negro did not possess the status of a man and War Influence Many Cases Two Main Points Awful Precedent Saturday, January 16th a citizen. But righteous public sentiment asserted itself in the indignation and utterly repudiated his diata, which has made the name of the saint a right judge a stigma and a reproach. There is no nama in American history which is so generally associated with obliquity except that of Benedict Arnold. Such is the risk in attempting to interpret public policy to suit the requirements of temporary propaganda. Of the God. Knees Of The Gods The case is now on the knees of the gods. The layman who listened to the arguments and observed the reactions of the judges, has little or no cue as to the outcome. The lawyers are equally beepedizied, and some are jittery. Some feel sure that the judgment of the lower court will be reversed; others look for a flat denial of our claims; while still others preempt the judgment of court for lack of jurisdiction. We can only stand and wait. If the decision is favorable, it will be no means short of justice. If the decision is judged estopped, other devices of like suitability will be forthcoming. The issue will merely assume another form. If on the other hand the decision goes against us, we may fall back upon the more basic decision that segregation can only be effected by local legal agreements and not by city or state agreements. It is much easier to break by and overcome mere individual covonants than to override the ordinances of a city or the enactments We know fully well that when the Anglo-Saxon race makes up its mind for any policy it will put it through. We know that the Anglo-Saxon barber, however, gives them more trouble and qualms of conscience in the accomplishment of their purpose. The white race needs no law to segregate the Negro. This can be as easily accomplished by manification. There is no law of any kind providing for segregation in New York, and yet in these cities the result is effected artistically. One might ask then why the folly of combatting the inevitable. The Negro is not a dental segregation with all the means at his disposal, not with the vain hope of defeating its main purpose, but because it is only by fighting that he can secure a place in the sun. If we yielded supremely to the exactions of race segregation, we would back all the shade places and back all the hope or outlet to the better portions with accommodations and facilities for descent living. Must Not Yield He does not cherish the vain hope that he can force his unwelcome presence upon white neighbors who may object to his presence, but he must insist upon his legal and moral authority and owe within his ability and nature or be shut up into a ghetto of benumbing environment. Dreads Legal Fixity Whichever way the decision may go, it will not determine the issue of education. The more education operation. The more basic decision of ten years age has had no appreciable effect upon the volume of segregation. The process has been mainly focused on past ten years in all of the cities of the country. But these decisions makes the process flexible, rather than the fatter that the Negro mainly dreads. I have had personal experience in Baltimore and Washington. Thirty years ago, the city of Baltimore lived in South Baltimore and in South Washington. In the growth and expansion of these two cities, the Southern portions became most undesirable as places of residence. Had To Fight In the earlier years practically every Negro who sought better home facilities had to fight the prejudice and opposition of the white neighbors. More and more, the Negro moved. Had we then had laws restricting racial residence, these people would still be penned up in these forbidding and untoward sections. The tale of these two cities can be multiplied by fifty. We must fight inequality and inequity with the instrumentality of the law, for this is only weapon which we can command. On the two occasions when the segregation issue was before the Supreme Court, the N. A. A. C. P. saw to engage the more mature infirmity of the white race. It is necessary to engage the most imminent available talent in any cause in litigation where the legal knowledge and sentiment counts. No places and cities have been eliminated colored counsel because of the prejudicial effect upon court and jury. Voice Of Negro But as I have watched these two cases pass through the Supreme Court I have become firmly convinced that the Negro in his own voice should have some part in the precedent. Judges are human. The human appeal still has moving power over the minds and conscience of people. Some can speak for the other. The next case which the N. A. A. C. P. brings before the Supreme Court, I earnestly urge that it utilize colored counsel in association with white, merely in the preparation of the brief, but in oral presentation before the court as well. A great many of us, as Mrs. Galloway, once Bruce Street bink, stalking up for the truth when we're only being obstructed about a personal opinion. SOCIAL EQUALITY BY NANNIE H.

He challenges me to go to the heart of the most deeply seated of American human tragedies. He asks me to sate my belief in clear, unequivocal language. Here goes my first installment. Next week I shall discuss intermarriage. Divinely Made I believe in social equality. Social equality is the equality of individuals in blood, character, culture, and affair; far as it is possible to standardize human beings. It is not, and never will be a thing of race or color. People are not social equals who are white, nor are they social inferiores because they are black. Their equality is a divinely made thing, and is inherently and affinately a human being, be destroyed by being denied by human agencies, instrumentalities and attitudes. Yes, I believe what is divine, irrevocable and unalterable. As a human being one blood established and sustains man's inherent and absolute equality with man. The fact that there are people who do not alter the fact that it is, any more than the fact that there are people who do not believe that there is a God annihilates that Omnipresent, Omnipresent, Omnipresent. Races Confused Negroes and whites are terribly confused in their thinking on the real meaning of social equality. They think that simply being black does not it, it does not it, it simply makes them white—that's all. It is up to them to make themselves equal or superior to members of their own race by providing education, culture, affluence and character. White or black, people do not require these weapons and graves, can not be used in the real world or black people who do. Moral Penalty Ignorant white people teach their children that the mere fact of being white is a tremendously superior or thing. They ignore unaspiring whites. This sense of supposed station is most satisfying. They feel that they are already something and that's enough. Just being white puts them as high as they are, and they are noticated over not being black, and so dizzy over looking down on somebody else that they cannot learn and they cannot aspire. There are millions of unaspiring, apathetic whites who are satisfied at just being white. They have no higher aspiration. That's the moral penalty of teaching the fallacious social doctrine of color superiority of the means of color does not matter or individuals superior. Superiority comes from character, conduct and achievement. There are millions of white people who cannot associate with members of color who own race on terms of social equality. And She Answered NO! I don't believe that you would be content if you knew that I was not proclaimed sick and guaranteed *insurance* AND XHE ANSWERED When our agent calls let him explain the value of our insurance. Centre St. & Park Ave. Known as the Prompt Paying Company ET AUNT DILSEY DO MAGAZIN WOMAN EDITOR—EVERY READER OF EQUALITY M. BURROUGH Social equality simply means that the virtuous associate with the virtuous, the vicious with the vicious, the wise with the wise, the cultured with the cultured; that people of literate, ideals and standards communicate. Group Satisfaction The fact that black people are barred from white society does not make black people socially inferior to white people, and they are socially superior. There are members of both races worthy and fit for association each with the other, and they are right to mix. They are simply satisfied in their own group. But they have no inferiority or superiority complex. Lothron Stoddard calls "The Rising Tide of Color" is in fact the rising tide of conscience, the rising tide of character, and the rising tide of culture, when those, in individual and group form, in the water mark, through understanding and proper evaluation, all racial currents will flow through one common channel. In fact it will be the one blood out of which God made all nations, asserting its infallenable right to be one. Human notions cannot change Private Judgment In things social, human beings are very much like birds. Birds of a feather flock together. Human being belongs of like birds. Human beings belong to things social. In things social, the right of private judgment has been, and always will be, supreme. Human brotherhood is social as well as spiritual. What force is this that makes us talk brotherhood, and bread, and when we get it, makes us refuse to eat together the thing for which we prayed? The fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man is strengthened and augmented by education, culture and achievement. Many white Americans thought that Booker T. Washington did not believe in social equality, and yet he was a man who has ever walked the earth since the Anglo-Saxon race began its ascendency. He ate at the tables, slept in the house, was a man who many functions in private homes—and always with the blue blood of the world. He was the social equal of the people who entertained him—that's why they did it. In character, their objective, they thought alike. Personal Prerogative In our ignorance, both races confuse public privileges or civic rights with social equality. Civic rights are social equality. Social equality or social intercourse is an inherent, primary, individual personal privilege. A person's social equality or franched riding in mixed cars is not social equality, nor is sitting in the same hotel or swimming in the same hole. Are civic rights for which men pay? Admission to public places of amusement, instruction and comfort does not social equality. These are civil rights or public place. Those who operate such places do so by franchise, and those who enjoy them pay for the privilege. Social equality means cordial social interaction. We must stop confusing it with civil rights. You do not purchase social equality when you buy a railroad ticket, nor does it come to your heart. You do not buy your house you register at a hotel. You purchase public privileges, and not private intercourse. Your house is that you pay in a community, and as much as you pay for it, the owner cannot throw in social equality for good measure. Even living in the same community, and making people equally, nor does marrying into the same family. Human equality cannot be bought. It must be black or white, is equal in spite of all the man-made and devil-made devices. Mme. Grayson BEAUTY PARLOR 1828 PENNA AVENUE Hairdressing, Manicuring, Etc. Hours: 8 A. M. to 9 P. M.

Your own knowledge, amenable to the rules of your making, their actions, in a measure, predictable, but other those children who come to the house after school, to the room after school, to room wide, inquisitive eyes, using strange slang, suggesting wild, unacustomed games—it is evident that they have been trained by an entirely different set of rules or by It was when the children started school and began picking up a wider acquaintance, that this problem of other people's children first came to vex me. Then I gave the matter a good deal of serious consideration. To solve it in a tactful, good-natured way—that was what I wanted to do. It was all wrong, I knew, for my house to be so rudely overrun, upset and demoralized by such unrestrained and often destructive hilarity. Not always could I be at home to check its progress. Nor was it right that such a guardian should be necessary. When people sojourn in a foreign country, I reasoned, they come under the jurisdiction of that country. And, surely, it should be the same with households and rules of households. The children who came into my home to enjoy its privileges, its attractive games and books, should be amenable, while there, to the same rules that governed my own children. "And that," thought I, "Is a rule that works both ways." So, in the first place, I told my chil- In dressing the baby, he should be handled as little as possible. A. the baby's body is very tender, so he will be made very uncomfortable. All of the clothing should be drawn on and off over the feet instead of on the back. When he is dressed completely, baby has on a band, shirt, diaper, skirt, dress and bootees. None of this clothing should be heavy, or too tight, so he will be lightly and slip on a little short jacket for cool mornings and evenings. When baby is a few months old, a good play is a hot summer day, and for a few minutes in the middle of the day and allow him to roll and play on a bed. Elaborate or fancy trimmed garments for the garments herself. A baby's wardrobe. Both mother and baby are better off without them, especially if the mother must care for the garments herself. A baby's wardrobe is liable to irritate the tender skin and cause the child a great deal of discomfort, as will starched- gun irritations are difficult to heat. For the first few weeks of life, the new baby does little but eat, sleep, clean clothes, and these should be of the simplest and most comfortable kind. The following are all that are needed: Slips: For every day wear, there should be six plain white slips. These should be cut by the kimono sleeve pattern and a tape to smooth the back of the knees and ankles. If they are made twenty-one inches long from shoulder to hem, they should never be made longer than twenty-seven inches.

"And," I added with some foresight, "If there seem to be no rules, act according to the ones we have had and you won't be any far far right." Then, so as to have everything given to you and you won't be any far far right, I made a list of rules which I typed in capitals and placed conspicuously here. Here are some of them: "When not at the dining-room table, all eating must be done in the kitchen." "Hands for clean books." "Feet must be kept off upholstered chair seats." "Rough games to be played out of doors." ured. do. Of course, there were others, but all pertaining to those little niceties of behavior that make our children more comfortable to live with and require from them only a little ordinary thoughtfulness. Not neck. I was rather doubtful as to how the children of the neighborhood might live, upon my burden of rules, but the idea appealed to them immensely. It seemed as if they actually lied it And, with some others, they would to a well-conducted club, behaved decorously, and even suggested other rules now and then as occasion seemed to demand. Other children, generally, would rather be decent than otherwise and will behave well if the way is made clear and reasonable.

For wear under the slips, baby needs four channel skirts, princess style. The very lightest weighten may be of the very lightest weighten channel or part channel and cotton.

For winter wear, the sleeves of the nightgown may be made two inches longer and the bottom eight of white flannel or knitwear through the sleeves and the hem and baby's hands and feet protected from the cold. The sleeves of the nightgown are made thirty-three inches long and twenty-seven inches wide, open down the front.

"The eggman's there in no safe place, and he takes it before you go to bed. And I've put hope in it. I remember everything in the eggman. It surely ought to be violate if I was making it for you." With a word of good-by he was gone, and his faded eyes on the dying fire in the grate. So how the cots had burned, so how he might have been his own life laid out before him. But the dreaminess of it was gone. He went over the past and the future, defined his eyes more than the thought of the gloomy future. It had come as a never cared for girls; had always said he would never marry. And at 40, he was expected to know his own mind. "If he'd o'ed 20, I wouldn't o'ed to himself. I was married myself when I wasn't much older. But Jeff hadn't been able to stay along of me, an then change his mind at 40 past. No, he hadn't A few tears trikled down on his wrinkled hands. This giving up of his all came hard. And he felt that the choice of Jefferson had not been wise. If he much marry, why not have chosen a girl whom he had known all his life? Why a stranger and an actress, at that? "No good! I come of it," I muttered to himself, groping his way to bed. He did not take the eggog, though it had been prescribed for him. He felt that it would choke him. And, either from that cause or the disturbing thought of Jefferson, he did not sleep. But he felgned sleep when Jeff can be tiptoeing in. The old man watched his face from under his eyes, he said. He saw the morning eve, the first smiling or purged in a silent whistle. "He's happy," the father said to himself. "I hadn't ought to mind. I'm just an old, back number with him. I wish I had some place to go. He won't care for me no more. It's a true sayin'—My son's my son till he gets him a wife." The days passed on and Jeff brought home the stranger girl. The father gave her a welcome that he did not feel. He could see, too, that she did not like him. As time went on she showed her dislike in many ways. Jefferson, dazzled, bilded, never noticed. But the old man knew. The old man had been accustomed to having a cup of coffee and the paper beaten with coffee. The coffee was not only coffee. Violet liked to loot the paper, Jefferson apologized. And uninterrupted, he was taken from him. He was cold when he woke up in the morning. The hot coffee he drank before the house would have believed. He missed it more than he woke up. He was guilty. His egging, that to the name, Violet, told the spoonful of good whiskey that the doctor had ordered. "It's bad for any one," she said to him. "You should be so joyful a day hurts a person. I put varicella in instead. It's much better." Violet married her husband. Father's cold so often. it can't hurt him. It makes him sleep. "You should be so joyful a day hurts a sleep," Jeff, he we won't tell it to Violet. After another all the little "comforts vanished. The fire was sedum lighted. The old man got into a way that he could not move. Time, Jefferson vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he did not know how to right it. And the old man never He brought her fruits and flowers and tried to tease her capricious appetite, touched meals escaped his observation. "Well," the old man sighed, "it won't be for long, myself, but it will. It must be that Jeff told me about me not like he had loved her, once I was used to the idea. He hurt, at first, Jeff gettin' married, when he always said he loved her in a woman around again! I kind of — liked it. It funny, but I did. But also I got the way and done with it." And then one night there was a hurried coming. The old man asks and listened to the sounds, his heart beating in quick alarm. He woke up, and sat down, sensing a cry that thrilled him. "Jeff's child!" he said. "It seems to think of that." He held the welle bundle awkwardly and proudly. "After me? But Violet won't like that. Her it idea," said Jeff. "Of course, that was what I wanted, but I felt I had to be mamed after you." "After me? But Violet won't like that. Her it idea," said Jeff. "Of course, that was what I wanted, but I felt I had to be mamed after you." But he was her first thought. "Well, that was mighty kind of her," and she wanted to see you right away. The old man went into the strange-familiar room. Violet motioned for him to sit down by the bed. "And you go out, Jeff," she added, reaching her house "or the previous bundle." For a moment or so there was silence. Then Violet reached out her hand. "Father!" she said. The old man's hand close over it. "I want to start—new," she went on. "We both began with a prejudice. Now—I want to start fair. I want to be to you what I hope my baby will be to me. As soon as I am better the doctor is going to send me to the country for a week. And I want you to come. I want to make up for all I have done. I feel—the baby—and everything Will you?" Tears can down her cheeks. Mr. Potter stroked the hair where the little curls were playing peek-a-boo.

The movement is fostered by the Interracial Commission and the Patronage of Coronary Dr. Shaler Matthes, dean of the Divinity School at the University of Chicago, is head of the committee backing the movement in this section and addressed the Monthly Ministers Union at the office of Coronary, to this effect on Monday. He said. "We are dealing with a new Negro no longer content with hearing phonetic pronunciations therein. The Negro does not want to be patted cascadingly on the back. He knows he is not inferior. And he is not. He wants to forge Negroes in the ministry. Two or perhaps even three, of the five greatest Protestant ministers in Chicago — greatest from standpoint and ability to organize — are Negroes. "But we Christians, even ministers, say we have nothing without much intelligent purpose, toward Negroes. When churchmen are asked what they will do for the Negroes they say with great gusto. We are not interested. That is sentimentality. And sentimentality may be defined as an emotion you enjoy but won't do anything about. A great sentiment or "The interracial Sunday will be an accomplishment, not a sentimentality, for it will be a visible proof of Christian black and white, respect each other. Another practical method white Christians should adopt is to reform the race. The Nation is compilating nicknames for nations and races." Metropolitan M. E. Church The Sunshine Adult Bible Class closed their year's work by giving ten baskets to the poor and needy families for Christmas. The members have been added to the Class and over $50 was given the Sunday school through Class collections.

TRINITY CHURCH HAD $10,500 BUDGET, 1925 Aggregate Church Property, Including Four Dwellings, Valued At About $10,000 1800 ENROLLMENT WITH 800 BONA FIDE MEMBERS Twinty A. M. E. Church, Rev. Wm. H. Thomas, pastor, closed its years work for 1925 with an expenditure of about $1,000,000 and a membership of about 600 according to the statements of officials of that congregation. The years report also gives an increase in membership for the year of 60 with about as many in increased average attendance. Property The value of the church property including its holdings is now about $100,000. Besides the church property, which is valued at $55,000, there are four property buildings, $45,000 for a story brick building with store front located at 222 W. Biddle street; one single story building at 264 W. Biddle street; a three story dwelling at 264 W. Biddle street; two brick dwelling at 255 Camel street constitute the investment property of the church. Although like most of the local churches the membership list con- tains nearly $800 names the actual membership of about 600 according to officers. The balance sheets for 1925 will show that the church about covered its running expenses. Some funds, we believe, were on hand among the expense lists listed as salaries, $2,240; conference claims, $2,000; Mission and the poor, $2,000; fuel and light, $1,200; repairs and miscellaneous, $1,400. A. M. E. E'S MAY CALL SPECIAL CONFERENCE A. M. E. E'S MAY CALL SPECIAL CONFERENCE Unofficial word has gone out that the A. M. E. Church may have to call an extra session of the general order to order to elect several new bishops. The conference 2 years ago elected three new bishops. Since that time however, four have died. They are D. Chapelle, J. B. M. Connor, and Bishop W. W. Beckett. Under the law, the bishops may call an extra session of the general order to elect three thirds of the annual conferences. Suggestion is made that the conferences be polled and the meeting set for New Orleans at the next session. The work of Bishop W. W. Beckett, who was buried last week at Eiddo Island, S. C., was divided between three bishops. Bishop John W. Beckett, the district Bishop H. Heard was given the northern half of the Mississippi district and Bishop A. J. Carey the southern. The extended the funeral included bishops John Hurst, A. L. Gaines, W. T. Vernon, Detroit; A. J. Carey, Chicago; J. H. Jones, Wilberforce; O. J. A. Johnson, Philadelphia, and R. C.

Text For To-day Weekly Sermon "I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills from whence cometh my help," Psalm 121:1. The above is the favorite Bible verse of Prof. Wrenby Payne, science teacher in Douglas High School. This, Mr. Payne said, has been his favorite verse since his school days in Atlanta University when an open forum speaker used it as the basis of helpful remarks. Next weeks favorite verse will be suggested by John Robinson, 725 N. Carey street. WEEKLY SERMON Difficulties Of Prayer Like many laymen who attend each Sunday many prayers touching people, I have often meditated on an unanswered. Most every Sunday there are so many laymen in the thousands that we side in the thousands of homes thru thun followers offer up numerous so would seem that many of them go uo What then is the difficulties we answer by asking questions. If we take the role of reality in a world governed by a rij If we take the philosophis attitude give what is the difficulty we ask is that we must not know our needs and must be told a What really happens when we with our spiritual growth, our more get out of "taking it to the Lord in a time when we are not satisfied and its unsatisfied longings find relief We believe it is still worth we whether we always get-what we as satisfaction which goes with communion a time when we are not satisfied and its unsatisfied longings find relief We believe it is still worth we whether we always get-what we as satisfaction which goes with communion a time when we are not satisfied and its unsatisfied longings find relief The above lay sermon was fun at Trinity A. M. E. Church. The by the Rev. W. H. Moses, Campanion Convention QUESTIONS AND BIBLE ANSWERS Like many laymen who attend church regularly and hear uttered each Sunday many prayers touching all conditions in the world and its people, I have often meditated on the fact that many prayers must go unanswered. Most every Sunday there are sufficient prayers sent Heavenward redeem this incursured world in the course of an hour. By every fireside in the thousands of homes throughout the land, thousands of Christian followers offer up numerous supplications and for the most part it would not answer. What then is the difficulty with prayer? They seem to me to be answered by the following questions: If we take the scientific attitude we ask has answered prayer any reality in a world governed by a rigid universal law? If we take the practical attitude its good will be not give what is the best for us without our asking for it? If we take the practical attitude can we assume that God does not know our needs and must be told about them? What really happens when we pray it seems to me has more to do with our spiritual growth with moral ethics and human satisfaction we get out of the Lord's will. The Lord's will is always striving towards the ideal and the consecrated and its unsatisfied longings find relief in prayer. We believe it is still worth while to "ask that it shall be given" when we pray to the Lord to get the soul satisfaction which goes with communion with God. There will never be a time when man will not need to call on God in prayer. The above lay sermon was furnished by Francis Thomas, an usher at Trinity A. M. E. Church. The sermon next week will be furnished by the Rev. W. H. Moses, Campaign Director of the National Baptist If Parents will encourage children to look up and memorize the Bible, it will provide a prioileless heritage to them in after years. SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON Sunday, January 17th: JESUS AND NICODEMUS.-John 3: 1-17; 7: 45-52; 19: 38-42. Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto them. Except as the horn of water and earth. So farth, he cannot be the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. "I must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and that heathest where it hath been, and that heathest will hence it coineth and whither goeth; so is every one that is born of the Spirit." Nicodemus answered and said unto him, "Can you can these things be?" Jesus answered and said unto him, "Art thou a master of Israel, and knowst not these things?" We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen and ye receive, that ye believe, that ye believe not, how shall ye believe if I tell you of heavenly things?" No man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man, which is in heaven, has lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up. That whosoever behold should not perish, but eternal life. "For God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten Son, that whoever behold should not perish, but have everlasting life."

Howell, 41, a prominent undertaker of this city, with offices at 2745 Chauteau avenue, was placed under arrest here Wednesday night, charged with at- tempted fraud.

An attic door, set by an uncle of Allen's insurance of $3,000 carried by the Liberty Life Insurance Company, of Chicago. On the strength of these discoveries, Understaff Howell and James Slaughter, 40, 1013 Ohio avenue, his chapel, placed under arrest, embalmer, were HOW PRAUD WAS WORKED. Moore died November 13, and relatives left the body with Howell for burial. Moore later relinquished the body. The doctor who treated him did not see the body, but signed a death certificate. The two men were buried by Howell on the same day, supposedly. Instead, one of the caskets was filled with cement, Moore's attic, the other as Allen's, and both buried. The home office of the insurance company in some way heard Allen was still saline and refused to pay his insurance claim. Later investigation disclosed the above facts. It has since been learned that Raymond Allen has been caught and charged with stealing the insurance. Allen, who tried to collect the insurance, has had a similar charge placed against him. Raymond Allen lived at 2814A Olive Firestone Employs 2,000 On Rubber Plantation Monrovia, Liberia.—The Firestone Plantations Company have commenced ed to operate on a large scale.

Jones Fakir Caught, Curied Cement Business Talk By C. E. Armstrong If money is the life blood of a business organism, then sealing it is the red corpuscles furnishing it; that nutriment that is so essential to keep it in a healthy and active state. Next to finances, selling comes second in importance in every business organization; in fact in a good many enterprises the sales policies are given precedence. It is true that many enterprises of national importance have been built up from a shoe-string by intensive selling methods, such a thing could not be successfully carried out today. It is important to exist in all lines of endeavor. I am in favor of a business being so financed, that its selling organization, no matter how well it is equipped with brains, is going be able to walk into the office to move back with orders by the handful. Before this can be accomplished, a period of time must be spent in intensive educational advertisement, showing prospectus of the best product of its kind for the pride offered. It is not my intention in this article to deal with advertisement, but to touch upon it only as it relates to selling with selling must to some extent deal with advertisement, because they are so closely related until it is hard to tell where advertisement leaves the salesman begins. But as an advance guard for the selling organization, the sales-manager has many mediums to reach his market through advertisement; he has recourse to the salesman weekly and monthly; billboards; posters; electric signs; and street-car advertisements. Which-ever he uses in governed by the size and scope of the business and the particular class of customers to Selling to-day, is attracting the best brains of the country, and e-commerce in distributing the world's goods consistent with quality and service will make large improvements in the large mail in-house houses, have because of better methods, taken a large amount of the rural business from the country merchant, and the chain stores to an even larger extent sent many independent stores to the mail houses every commercial organization to plan its sales policies with care, and after care has been given in the planning then give these plans a chance before discarding them only be done when there is adequate finances behind the enterprise.

When a child is born the harp parents send out cards that read "A little visitor has just arrived at our house," before six months and up the little visitor has pulled off The people who give the prizes in France say that men with large families are general because a bird with a pair of bawling kids get a plenty of setting up exercise.

The only way he can tune off is by pouring Paragoric down the loud speaker. A little child is safe to be a blessing in your home. From the size of their families it looks like some guys want all the blessings. Every man should have an heir to take over his possessions.

Dow, Katherine Dowd and Corrette Dowd, owners of the property. LaFuette Square Protective association, all white. The defendants were Johnson, Frederick J. Scott, agent, and Mrs. Ellen J. Shackles, owner of the property. He stated that an agreement had been entered into by owners of property in the 1100 block not to rent or sell to colored persons or their descendants for a period of time. The agreement was stipulated in the agreement that no sale, lease or transfer would be made by the owners, their heirs, or agents, that would operate otherwise than subject to the restrictions of Richard Sheckle, deceased a party to the agreement it was stated and his wife Ellen Sheckles had employed Scott as agent. Scott had in turn rented the property to John- The fifth paragraph of the bill filed by the Dowd sisters states "That if the said property known as No. 125, the property copied by Negroes or persons of African descent it would cause irreprotable loss and injury to the plaintiffs which will not be held liable in the ordinary course of law and will be irreprotable unless said occupancy is restrained by injunction." The bill also sets forth that this bill was filed as exhibit No. 1, colored persons could only occupy any part of any house in the block as servants. Johnson, it points out, is not a tenant and not as a servant, which is a violation of the contract. The injunction, which was signed by Judge Staunton, temporarily restricts the house but the right is reserved for the defendants to contest the suit. Pittsburgh Paper Suspends Pittsburgh, Pa. (P. N.

When a child is born the happy parents and out cards that read "A little visitor has just arrived at our house," before six months are up the little visitor has pulled on his boots and tries to run the dark place. Large families are good sometimes. An East Baltimore widower with five sons advertised to marry a widow with four sons. He wanted to start a baseball team. The traits of the parents are reflected in the child. A local man who was a liar and a thief had three sons. They all became politicians. What good does it do to raise a large family? After you work yourself half to death caring for them they grow up and say "So's your old man." Life is a funny proposition. A child is born with no hair, no teeth and can't walk. He lives for 70 or 80 years and winds up in the same place he started, so what's the use? DEATHS DEATHS Edward Lewis, 45, 6.121 Calvain. David Carr, 52, 15.107 Marshall. Carr D.

The good pastor who conducts a meeting in Kingston street, called on officials of the Northeastern district to help him out of his difficulties last week. He stated that Sonion met him on the street and told him that he was to exist between him and one Mrs. Lee who lives at 1278 McElderry street, was to be distance and plenty of that.

Residents of the block peeping in from their curtained windows, saw a van roll up and unload furniture in a vacant house in the block. When it had deposited its load and left someone noted a small boy sitting in the front steps. Curiosity changed into horror, for this little boy was of ebony hue and the block was white. Consternation reigned: telephone lines hummed and before no time the mob spirit had One Small Domestic Quarrell PROBATION HEAD ANALYSES PROCEEDURE A family quarrel, especially when it ends in the Domestic Relations Court is one of the most expensive luxuries of married life, the Rev. Bealo Elliott, Probation Officer, declared Tuesday. In substantiating his statement, Mr. Elliott said that a serious quarrel oftimes ended with the wife leaving the husband and returning to her own home. This makes additional expense on her people. The husband deprived of home comforts, is forced to take his meals out. The husband becomes negligent. In his support of his family and the wife obtains a warrant for his arrest. In this simple business the services of a judge, a desk sergeant, and a policeman are required. After the arrest, the accused gives a brief account, including the services of the above mentioned who are being paid by the state. If the case is referred to a high court, requiring the husband to go to jail or furnish bond, both cost something. In the court the services of a prosecuting attorney, court clerks, stenographer, and judge are required. If the accused prays jury trial 12 more men are needed. He is eventually ordered to pay a stipulated amount and referred to the probation department where clerks are needed to keep records of his payments for several years during their separation. This gives an idea of the pecuniary costs of a family guard, Mr. Elliott stated. The greater part of the debt paid ruined lives and wrecked homes. 1004 W. Lafayette Ave. 1716 W.

B. McAllister, white, director of the Municipal Labor Bureau. Most of the unemployed belong to the laboring class, and no direct relief is expected before February 1st," says the labor Head. 50 To 100 Daily McAllister stated that from 50 to 100 men apply at the office daily for employment. This is because that most of the unemployed are receiving firms depend upon its Bureau for its common labor. In its annual report, the number placed in work during the year 1925 is given as 11,500, about half of whom are white. Each of these placements has cost $1,000 annually. In commenting upon this cost, McAllister says, "According to the recent financial statement of the school Board, the cost for one years education given to the pupil in the public school is $55.40. It is surely worth while for the city to spend 25 cents a year to provide the fathers of these pupils with work." Holiday Effect Ifferent employment is always affected by the holidays, and adding to this, the fact that unfavorable weather has caused a number of activities to close down, the large unemployment can be readily understood. In an interview with the bureau Friday, the reporter found that they considered it a valuable and efficient agency in obtaining work for them. New Quarters The bureau will be removed this week to new quarters at 331 St. Paul Place. Many improvements will be made, not only in the physical appointments of the department, but also in the capable of accommodating at least 500 men, but the general scope of the work will be enlarged. Teachers Join Association Raleigh, N. C.—This year for the first time the Corresponding Secretary of the North Carolina Negro Teachers Association can report a registration in the Association of more than 50 per cent of the public school teachers of the State. There are 5,310 teachers in the public schools besides several hundred in private schools and about 2,800 with more still to be reported according to statements from some of the local units. hers To Halt y White Tenant brought a group before the place with the usual intent to bomb and stone the new tenants out. A hurry call brought the officers who ordered the mob to disperse, and when two of its members showed signs of defying the minions of the law they were arrested. Others left and organized an indignation meeting and a protective organization was formed to fight the "invasion." Meanwhile the little brown skinned chinatin sat with undisturbed innocence on the doorstep. He had simply been hired to watch the place by a white family that was moving in. Art Exhibit Opens On Saturday The Federation of Parent Teacher Clubs will hold an exhibit of the work of Negro artists and sculptors from January 14th to 21st. The exhibition is expected to prove of especial inspirational value to students. Among the many artists contributed will be an umber of sculptured pieces by Augustus H. Savage, a young sculptor of New York whose work is highly spoken of by art lovers. Each school will be assigned a day to visit the exhibit. Mrs. Edward J. Wheatley is director of the office. She made an appeal to the ministers' meeting Monday urging pastors to cooperate in making it representative of the city. 24-Hour Special Store First Class WILSON 511-519 Wilson Street Will You Suffer From Colds This Winter IMMEDIATE RELIEF TERFINOIL FOR COUGHE & COLD'S FOR SULFUR DREAM CROWN HITS Baltimore, Md. HONEY BEE EDUCATION URGED IN SCHOOLS Morgan Dean Tells Schoolmasters They Teach Too Many Subjects HI SCHOOLS SWAMPED WITH MEDIOCRE PUPILS Standard Put Low. So Dull Children May Get Along And Be Promoted Dr. John Haywood, dean of Morgan College, speaking before the Schoolmasters Club, in the Y. M. C. A. auditorium, last Saturday night declared that there was numerical and curriculum overcrowding in the schools today. "Overcrowding in Education" was the subject of his discourse. "There are too many people going to school now to get the best results of education." he declared. "Natural opportunity limit educational facilities. Every person can't get a high school and college education because they haven't intelligence enough. "We are swamping the 'high schools and colleges with mediocre mentality,' he said. Dr. Haywood said the high schools have been reelected to meet duilt the school they are making it easy for the bright pupil to leaf in school. To explain this statement, he gave the intelligence tests now given in schools as an example. Intelligence tests pupils are divided three groups whose those who raten be from 90 to 110: second those from 80 to 90 and third. from 60 to 80. Dr. Haywood cited that the passing mark for the three groups was 60 therefore making it easy for pupils to pass the tests while those in the third group had to struggle. "Overcrowding in the schools makes education too impersonal. Educating boys and girls means, first and fundamentally, inspiring girls and boys with ideals high, potent and pertinent. The result is personality touching personality. The schools are losing personality. The schools are just individual occupying seats in a classroom." he continued. Curriculum Overcrowding Dr. Haywood declared the school curriculum over-stimulates the child. Too many subjects are crowded in to the course of study, he said some of which will never be used by the child after leaving school. "In securing an education the student should select some one thing and concentrate on it. I will use it to explain the subject to explain what I mean. I have watched a butterfly flit from flower to flower and end up with very little pollen while the honeybee will light on one flower, burrow into it and come out laden with pollen. What we want is honeybee education." Advocates Apprenticeship Evidently, Dr. Haywood does not approve of vocational schools when she believes believed boys and girls what desire to learn a trade should no apprentices and learn the trade on the job. Most of the pupils of vocational school, he said, after graduating are compelled to work as apprentices. He has also written a address in which John Woodhouse, Harry Pratt, Gough McDaniel and Charles Campbell participated. Cranks Automobile And Falls Dead Cranking a car in front of 1998 Calvert street, and seating himself beside his employer, James Williams, age 32, 251 Camel street, fell dead into the arms of the former Saturday. His employer, Charles Diggs, 1118 Carrollton avenue, said that they had just delivered two wedding cakes at the above address and were about to leave when Williams, seating himself beside him collapsed against the Murray dosse was immediately taken to the Murray dosse, where doctors said he died of appoplex and heart failure. New Young Pharmacy Following extensive repairs to the store property at the corner of Drudg Hill avenue and Dolphin street, Dr. Howard E. Young has removed his pharmacy from 1100 Drudg Hill avenue to this new location. No formal opening was held, but customers can extend best wishes, while the homeowner Retail Druggists Association sent a handsome bucket of natural flowers.
