Rev. Peter Hayes Body
Rests At Undertakers Until Court Acts

CHARGES IN COURT
Health Department Says 7
Days Legal Limit Between
Death And Burial
BY ISAAC BANNISTER
Washington, D. C.-While two churches growel as to which shall bury him, the body of Rev. Peter Hayes, Baptist minister has rested nine days in an undertaking establishment.
Rev. H. Hyacus, who was the oldest pastor in the city, died January 18 in Gallinger Hospital. Mt. Calvary Baptist Church, a mission, of which he was pastor, observed of the body to President Weasley. Washington, 2053 Georgia Avenue, for embalming. Vermont Avenue Baptist Church, of which the dead pastor was a member, engaged another undertaker, but Washington refused to give up the corpse unless he was paid for his work already performed.
War between two undertakers coined until Dr. Understaffers the Health Department interfered and summoned Washington to court to answer charges of keeping a corps of soldiers between death and burial. Maximum fine is $200 and 90 days in jail. Dr. Powrey refused to issue a bail permit to Understaffer Washington, and then them to the rival undertaker. He based his action on testimony of friends that the deceased had asked to be buried. Vermont Avenue charge his. Stopper should he prefer the larger church. It looks like Understaffer Washington is out of $50 and the table he kept in keeping it in court charges he must just for violation of the law.
NEW MARRIAGE LAW IN VIRGINIA
I Richardson, Va.—The state senate has given a new measure forbidding marriages between white and members of brown, red, yellow or black races.
The law directs that no clerk shall issue a marriage license to any person of mixed blood, regardless of the race, to marry a white person, and a white person is denied the right to marry a person of mixed blood of any of the races named as being other than white. All persons who are not white are classed as colored under the law.
This bill has caused controversy to lily-bloomed the way many persons have been parading themselves as white and have held themselves aloof from the colored people, have been denied admission to the schools as white. Many people have argued that the claim to be Indian in every way and they have gone to the courts to have their status defined.
The mere fact that they have been rebuffed by the school authorities does not deter them in the fight they are making for their racial integr-
If any person marries in this state and the man or woman is other than white, the offenders are to be prosecuted under the laws on miscognition and penetration and penetration of infractions of the law. The bill went to the committee for courts of justice for consideration.

No wonder — diphtheria, sepsis, orphyrax, or diseases of the head, nose and throat start with the common cold.
The 'common cold starts frequently from crowded school, church and dance halls where men and women or boys and girls cough without using their hand-kerchiefs.
John bee coughs or sneezes from his infected throat into the air. Your nose, them are in the spray. Some of your nasal passages. Tomorrow you have a cold.
TAKE CARE
If you have to cough or sneeze, do it behind your 'kerchief', please.
VIRGIN ISLANDS' DELEGATION IN WASHINGTON
Washington, D. C.—A delegation is here from the Virgin Islands to urge upon Congress the passage of legislation affecting these islands, which the United States purchased from Denmark in 1917.
The delegation consists of D. Hamilton Jackson, an attorney and member of the Colonial Council of H. Hertz, a member of the Colonial Council of St. Croix, and J. Hestres, a member of the Colonial Council of St. Thomas. They will very likely appear before the House Committee on Insular Affairs and urge the passage of the bill to give them a permanent form of government. The Naval appropriations bill which is under consideration by the Congress carries an 825,000 appropriation to the temporary government of the Virgin Islands. It is provided, however, that no part of this sum shall be used for the Colonial Council of the Virgin Islands or other public office under the government of these islands, who owes allegiance and other country taxes. After the purchase of the Virgin Islands, the inhabitants were given the opportunity of retaining their allegiance to the Danish Govern-

THE STUDIO
Ocala, Fla.—Photo shows the body of Chandler Colding, 40 years old, as it appears hanging from a tree near Ocala, after a Florida mob had visited its vengeance upon him. The man was arrested and lodged in the county jail for attacking a white girl. He was brought to the hospital where his victim laid, when 75 men took him from Deputy Sheriffs, F. M. Roddenberry and W. I. Perkins. He was then taken to a tree which is about 20 miles outside of Ocala, and strung up to the tree so that his agony would be slow. Then his body was riddled with bullets.
Members of the mob made their escape. There were no arrests altho they were known. Meantime the U. S. Senate announces hearing will start soon on the Dyer Antilynching bill which would punish mobs with $5,000 Fines.
RICH FREEDMAN
FOOLS WHITE
OIL GRAFTERS
Chicago—Efforts of Okmuglee, Oklahoma, whites to be appointed guardians of the $150,000 oil lands of Jesse Bruner failed last week when Bruner fled here out of the jurisdiction of Oklahoma courts.
Bruner applied to the Illinois courts and had James Hooper, a colored man, of his own city, Dr. William Chandler, his physician and his wife appointed trustees of his estate.
Most of the oil production has been dissipated in bad land purchases, in Oklahoma and Missouri. The Bruner homestead, in Okmuglee County, has 13 producing wells, but it is sandy and not suitable for oil per day. The estate includes also six additional forms located in Tulsa and Creek Counties. Three brick buildings and a barn are the heart of the white business and residential district of Sapulca, all attest to the desire of white guardians to forget segregation of Jesse Bruner's black ward's money in Oklahoma.

Slayer Escapes Bloodhounds And Posses Of Three States
Is the Jim Crow Soul a Result Of Insanity?
Nothing else, says Dr. A. B. Budd, D. D., will account for the action of those seemingly afflicted with what is scientifically called the inferiority complex, but what I am pleased to call the "Jim crow soul." Some people believe everybody else is better than they are. Others believe all white people are better than they are.
These people buy at stores where they know they are not given first class treatment. They go up the back stairs and sit in sections of the theatres set apart for inferior groups.
They do not feel that they are like other people and entitled to the rights and privileges others enjoy. "In my mind," says Dr. Budd, "these people suffer from a type of insanity which brings about a

Brue, Leanan Crocker and Irving Grinage were electrocuted at stock View pententiary. They had been convicted of killing Jonathan Clopp, white, rural storekeeper near Robesonia, Pa. September 26, 1924.
Just before the execution, Brue confessed that it was he that killed the storekeeper, the other two men. He said, the revolver in his hand was discharged.

SENATE MUZZLE GIVES HOPE TO ANTI-LYNCHERS
Gay Rule To Halt Debate
On World Court Termed
Significant
SAME RATE WOULD
AID DYER BILL
Measure To Halt Lynching
Filibustered To Death
Last Year
Washington, D. C. (Special)—
If the U. S. Senate can
halt debate on the World
Court proposal it can halt
debate on an anti-lynching
bill.
This is the view of advocates of
an anti-lynching law Monday when
they say, "The Senate adopted a
debate and allowing each senator
only an hour to debate the proposal
to have the United States join the
World Court."
The advocates recalled that the
Dyer Bill "to punish the crime of
lynching" passed the House in the
fifth Congress but was billed in
the Senate, a prolonged nitus-
saged by Southern Senators.
Now they are planning to invade the cloture rule, the Dyer bill in the Senate. Republican Senators who gave up last year without trying to force the Dyer bill through will not be able to say this year that their bill will pass.
Representative Dyer, Republican, said he intends to bring his measure before the House for its approval. His bill is now before the Judiciary Committee, where it has been spending since December 7 and is mentioned. The gag rule preventing unlimited debate has only been invoked once before, namely in 1917. Its adoption prompts debate in which the Ku Klux Klan was mentioned by name for the first time in the senate. Senator Robinson (D, Ark.) accused Senator Seward (C, Ark.) of having a "Kinnie Klug" on one arm and a Grand Dragon on the other, sheeted and hooded." The Ku Klux be said, using their influence, Senator Seward block the World Court resolution.
HEARINGS TO BEGIN ON DYER BILL
Washington, D. C. (AFRO Bureau)—A subcommittee of the Senate Judiciary Committee will hold a hearing on the anti-lynching bill on-February 16. This data was set and a subcommittee appointed by Senator Albert B. Cummins, Republican of Illinois, who is the anti-lynching bill in the Senate.
Senator Cummins, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary committee, chairman of the subcommittee. Other members of the subcommittee will be Senator Robert D. Idaho, and Senator William H. King, Democrat, of Utah. Congressman, he is heard in hearing of this bill should communicate with Senator McKinley.

"LULA BELLE" VAMP-CROWDS PHILLYTHEATRE
"LULA BELLE" VAMP-CROWDS PHILLYTHEATRE
Phila.—"Lula Bell," Belasco's new play based on underworld life in colored Harlem, is playing ere to packed houses. Hundreds are in line each day to get precious tickets. Some 97 colored actors are in the big show, which is built from incidents in the lives of Kip Rhinchure, Florence Mills and Kurt Kitching in Baron Wilkins celebrated cafe. Heroine's part that, of a "bighy yaller" girl, is taken by a "bighy litch" girl, is kissed by Kitching in the play for a colored actress. In the first act she stages a fight with a colored girl over her colored husband whom she has. Critics say the hair pulls hair between white and colored actresses in the U. S. stage. She calls her opponent—You mustard colored snake charmer. I'll knock your palette down. She wields a white cap, a colored heavyweight fighter, a colored Apollo with a wife-and four children. But you ever have your woman run her hand down your neck, down your spine and around your solar-pleux?" she says as she slowly announces her first diamond and blonde. With the assistance of such campaign slogans as "Kiss me till I am dead and buried," and "I will love you lovin' like you," she foresees her the glorifiedown of the Harlem cabrents. Here she is described as the woman with "them passionate eyes of her admirers admitters tell her that she could take her Saturday bath in champagne." If she act like lovin' him just a little." She sticks your hands up with me/"
When her Apollo reproaches her
for her flickiness, she shrieks, "What
about the $1,000,000 worth of lovin'
I've given you, baby?"
"Who gave you the biggest thrill you ever had?"
you ever have, no nobleman takes her to France and establishes her as his mistress in a luxurious apartment. She becomes the pet of Paris. Her Apollo after her death, she cattle boat. She spurns him as a dirty, sloven, yellow bellied man. "Kill yourself and show you have some guts." He hurries her on a bed and chokes her to death, says the penalty of her landling.
No wonder Philly society is shocked by the play.

BOARD WON'T OUST TWO TEACHERS
nior Hi School
ELIGIBLE TEACHER SAYS
D. C. LAW IS VIOLATED
Says, May Teach In High Schools
Washington, D. O. AFRO Bureau)—In its answer to the suit of Miss Mabel E. Jackson, of 1834 Ninth street, northwest, the Board of Education denies that Miss Jackson is being deprived of her rank and emolument as a high school teacher by the continuance of Miss Susie V. Jennings, of 933 Westminster street, northwest, and Miss Elizabeth D. Burrell, of 1711 Eleventh street, northwest, upon their duties as teachers of domestic art in the Armstrong Technical High School.
Miss Jackson petitioned the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia to issue a writ of mandamus compelling the Board of Education to declare these two positions vacant and to appoint her to one of them as a probationary teacher of domestic art.
Board Admits
The Board of Education in its answer admitted that neither Miss Jennings nor Miss Burrell were qualified as a teacher of domestic art in the senior high schools. Neither possessed the degree of an accredited normal school and neither has passed a competitive examination for teacher of domestic art in the senior high schools, the Board admits. Miss Burrell was taught in the graded schools, the Board savs in its answer, on October 11, 1923, and has been teaching in the Armstrong Technical High School since October 1, 1922. She dresses mastermok
Teacher of Sewing
Miss Jennings was appointed a teacher of sewing in the vocational grade schools in October, 1913, and on September 12, 1917, she was transferred to the Armstrong Technical High School as a teacher of tailoring. She was in the answer.
The subjects of tailoring and dress making, the Board says, are trade and vocational subjects and Miss Jennings and Miss Burrell are engaged in teaching these trades and vocational subjects in the Armstrong Technical High School, but are not high school teachers and are not classified as such.
The Board states in its answer that prior to 1916 considerable difficulty was encountered by the public school system in obtaining vocational instructors to teach trades and vocations in the public schools for the reason that the basic salaries paid to such teachers upon their appointment were greatly below their earnings if engaged in their trades outside the public school system.
Took Examination
December 19, 1923. Miss Jackson took an examination, duly reported to the Board of Education as eligible for appointment as a teacher of domestic学 in the senior high school, and on the eligible list and was notified on her standing on February 14, 1924. She claims that but for the alleged legal detailing or transferring of Miss Jennings and Miss Burrell, there would be two vacancies exist. The High School, to either of which she could be entitled, if they should be declared vacant.

WASHINGTON HEARS DURKEE WILL RESIGN AT FEBRUARY TRUSTEE BOARD MEETING
President Retires From Many University Affairs. "Social" Secretary Quoted As Saying His Chief Has Resigned. Professor Waring Answers Durkee Charge That He Quit Without Notice.
BY ALUMNUS
Our recent article, printing the letter of the St. Louis Alumni and Lifelong Learners loved by other exposures last week has given rise to the question, "What manner of man is this Dr. Durkee?" Instead of hurling inexcavates at the students, we continue his easy-going and persuasive appeal to the self-respecting colored people of this country to form a group of the largest and best equipment institution of higher education. Our converts are multiplying weekly and we have no intention of suppressing the facts until our souls are
Professor Waring
In the list of professors who had left the university, without giving notice, applauded Dr. Waring, who, according to Dr. Durke's slipper enqueue, resigned on June 5, 1924 after a suggestion two weeks before his resignation in June, at the very close of the year, could not be embarrassing to Howard to press this point that St. Louis letter that these sud den resignations gave him great crimes to meet and master.
From Downingtown
These columns have already printed Prof. Turner's return to Dr. Durkee's mendacious representation and Prof. Houston's letter of resignation to Dr. Durkee, which he heard in reply to Dr. Durkee's myth Writing from Downingwood Industrial School of which he is principal, under: date of January 16, 1928 he replies as follows: He advises to follow over to keep out of the controversy raging over Dr. Durkee, but the inclusion of my name in the list of those who resigned from Howard with practically no advance notice is so clearly correct with the facts that I feel compelled to make an emphatic concession.
J. C. Asbury
"On March 20, 1924, Mr. J. C. Abbey, Secretary of the Board of this school, wrote asking me to come to the school to see what was inconvenient for me. He wrote me again on March 24, stating the terms of the offer. I conferred with him the first week in April and accepted the position delimited. In April"
"I immediately on my return to Washington, during the first week of war and was granted an interview with Dr. Durkee and married to Pat M. Abbey's brother of March 24. Peruage of the Trustee of Howard had just previously voted to raise the tuition charge and had specified that it be used in paying salary increases. Dr. Durkee once proceeded to the school into debt raising salaries in the past and stated that it was the intention of the Board that the increment from the addition of this debt would outweigh this decision, which would require at least three years."
During that period there would be no salary advances for any teachers—he said. After he had exhausted his supply, he called a calendar of high-sounding praises of my services, I informed him of my acceptance of the position. Note that this was during the first week of school, and the nation on June 6, which was acknowledged June 9. I quote from the latter's letter.
Durkee's Letter
"I have received yours of the 5th resigning from the staff of the University that you may become principal of the school at Downingworth, of your father. After your long talk with me I anticipated that this would be your action and so prepared myself in mind for this letter that I can tell you. I can well understand that after ten years of teaching here, it is a wrench for you to break from the work and enter the somewhat new field, and get I feel that you are doing the right thing in entering this
Broken Faith
"As Dr. Durkee has broken faith in me, I feel that I may relate the following incident without violating the confidence of one of our teachers. In June each 1922 or 1923, I went with my father after the meeting of the board to the home of the teacher, pertaining some of the members at dinner. This same member called me out into the dining room, where we were alone and sat down so that our knees touched. We looked on the eyes.
"Jhnimie," he said. "I have known you all of your life and I am going to tell you about a foe. What trouble have you been having with Dr. Durkee?"
Astonished
"I was astonished but told him of such disagreements as we had had in faculty meetings and elsewhere, and I was very pleased to have previous meeting of the Board Dr. Durkee had had me advanced in rank to Assistant Professor. He then related to me that Dr. Durkee had recommended that day to the Teachers' Committee the dismissal of four members of the faculty, of whom I was a member. He challenged the refusal to cooperate in the time of a great crisis. Specifically, he charged that when the English department was closed, he and I had only three classes. I had absolutely refused to take a class in English.
Stunned By News
"You can imagine how I was stunned at this news—from surprise to mortification. To think that I had been recommended or dismissed! I was surprised that the thing was that Dr. Durkee had never so much as intimated to me that he was taking such a step and had given me absolutely no chance to prepare a defense. I happened that my mittee met me and the mittee had known me for years and spoke up beautifully in my behalf, passing a resolution that no teacher was ever to be dismissed without being a fair chance to defend himself."
German-English
The facts in the case were as follows: Early in either 1821-22 or 1822-23, I was one of my classes in German failed to materialize and I. had only two
The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly
a shortage of English teachers and Dr. Durkee suggested that I take the class. Of course, I protected vigorously, as I took pride in my work and did not feel qualified to teach English because I was a foreigner including Dean Miller, the English department and the German department met in Dr. Durkee's office. I explained my polite request to Dr. Durkee that it was not a pedagogy policy to give a teacher a subject which he was not specially prepared for, but that the English department did not want to give a class to any one not prepared to teach that subject and that Durkee was not prepared to the several shifts and apparently settled satisfactorily—at least wadjourned and I never heard another word about it until nine months later, a member of the Board of Trustees.
A College Graduate
"Dr. Durkees' pedagogical notions and standards were never better optimized than in his famous (infamous) rejoinder in faculty meeting to my protest in taking a class with him. He came to me, but Mr. Waring is a college graduate, is he not? " You may feel free to use such of these facts as may be of service to you. I should be glad if you would correct the impression that a walker should not without give up of my goals."
"(Signed) J. H. N. Waring."
The Sunlight
It is the same old story. Dr Durkees' letters cannot stand the sunlight. The truth in them is so fatal that it fades as soon as the light is thrown upon them. Volunteers recipients of his epistles to burn them up before Alumnus gets them. To his misleading mind a letter is a precious piece of confidence never to be judged. He is a man of great readiness means of escape from the grave responsibility of his deeds. Memory Poor
Memory Poor
The question has often been raised as to the dependability of Dr. Durkee's memory. It does not seem to be a problem, but make statements which other statements can easily prove false. Or the other hand, it is a distressing thought to associate a clergyman with his past. Inventions in defence of the truth. There has always been a traditional respect for the "Man of God" who has his past. From such a disciple of the Christian dispensation, nothing but unaltered veracity is expected. Close friends of Dr. Durkee say that he has an excellent memory, so that these discrepancies are not chargeable to that source. Again, the Christian he has a very high standing, so knows exactly what is expected of his profession. He knows what his responsibilities are in setting the record straight, and knows that as the leader of young impressionable students, he must be an example of handling the truth in fact, the president of a university gives the institution its dominant
Inconsistency
Wherein, then, lies the inconsistency in Dr. Durkee's exposed weakness in reproducing facts as they appear, light of his numerous acts. Dr. Durkee has absolutely no respect for Negro intelligence. He treats education as a duty, would treat a twelve year old white child. He does not give the Negro credit for having sense enough to interpret his contradictory statements of his own honesty, or to analyze his trials. His idea is merely to write, regardless of facts or subsequent exposures, because the aggrieved person or persons.
St. Louis Letter
That St. Louis letter was an insult to the intelligence of the alumna Howard, wishing to act sane, without being influenced whatsoever by the popular clamor, paid Dr. Durkee the deference of an audience through his explanation of the many charges which had been brought to their attention by the press. He promptly sounded genuine. He had no idea that his letter would ever wend his way back to the District of Columbia and hang his name when he read and compared with the truth. Dr. Durkee ought to apologize to St. Louis alumni for his transgressions and hang his name when he an shows him the way out of his embarrassment.
Professors Queer?
One inescapable conclusion is that the professors who left Howard beaten and scared by their queer peers, or Dr. Durkee stands accused by each one of not handling the truth with mathematics have certainly been forceful and presented with convincing evidence. How much longer can Dr. Durkee own conscience stand the
Durkee Withdrawn
Meanwhile everything, with the exception of the recent outburst, is quite normal. He just about withdrawn from his job. He is no longer present on Sunday, at the church exercises, at the gym, at the job. He is through with colored audiences. Even his engagement with the Sorority, during the Christmas break, was abruptly broken off. Brooklyn now is his only care and worry.
Brooklyn
Authentic information on the Brooklyn situation is expected daily, but it has not reached the writer's mind. The writer's opinion on the matter is divided. There is a feeling that Dr. Durkee will never land such a job, inasmuch as his measurements are too light and his facial features are a profound thinker. His pulpit ability lies chiefly in adorning a slender thought with multifarious quotations from the masters, and he recites them well. It is doubtful if his style will attract a congreger of Beecher Church, an order of Benedictine church, than ornamentation is demanded.
Called And Accepted
already been called and has accepted the pastorate, but wishes to continue in his position of the President of the His Social Secretary, misnamed Alumni Secretary, is quoted as saying that Dr. Durkee was the only resignation will be acted upon at the February meeting of the Board of Trustees.
A Dance Or Two
This busy secretary, who work twenty-four hours a day, thirty days a month, and twelve months a year stakes a few hours off recently to take a dance or two. During the when, when he receives all of his receiving cases, he felt so happy that he is reported as saying that Dr. Durkee's days at Howard were numbered. Following this as sertion calls the resignation of the secretary's clear commitment that the poacher would not be jailed.
The writer is not passing this line or as true. It may never have been uttered, but there is surely some reason to believe that he is liking like a man who is about to go on a jong vacation. First, he neglected the wondrous opportunity he had to make an official is under fire, he embraces every opportunity to make a speech in which he may legitimately answer the question of whether he braced a similar opportunity in November, when he spoke to the State Teachers' Association of Maryland, which he would have not many. When he would have not many Howard alumnae indicates that it is not necessary to put his side on the people inasmuch as he is going.
Sunday Chapel
In the second place, he has given up Sunday Chapel services at Howard, though he was on the program. He no longer would act, although he did act at Howard. The press has already heated him rather warmly, for filling local pulpits when his duties call him to his own pulpit, and he has been given the opportunity. He has not filled more than one local pulpit since October. His name and picture, once regular tenants of the Saturday, "Star," among the Church notices for the Sunday, no longer exists. The Sunday practice of desserting the Chapel for a foreign pulpit indicates the probability of a permanent position in Brooklyn; otherwise Dr. Durkke fears the wrath of the press.
Brooklyn Vacancy
Again, a release was given some time ago to the Washington papers announcing the vacancy in Brooklyn preschools who have had the famous church which Dr. Durkee was now filling temporally, and mentioning the proximity of a call to some outstanding faculty. Durkee was only Durkee. If there had been any doubt about the call, Dr. Durkee never would have given such a release. The fact that he has been holding down the position weeks would surely be a source of embarrassment; he did not eventually get the call.
One Clash In Two Weeks
All this may be speculative, but Dr. Durkee is not acting like a president who is planning deep down in his heart to remain. He has had but one clash in the last two weeks and this is a very sober record for Dr. Durkee. Now it may be that his Negro Biography is keeping him busy. There surely must be a few $300 orders by this time, especially since there is a deferred payment plan of purchasing such promised greatness. But whatever may be the cause, he has had, in the last two weeks, only one man sized
Called Teachers Together
It seems that Miss Childers, one of Dr. Durke's thorns, committed the unpardonable sin of calling a meeting of the teachers of the Convent to attend a recital that all musical activities at Howard are under one Dorsey Rhodes, a horn-blower, who has naturally made some noise in the world. Miss Childers has never quite accepted the administrative yoke of Serious Rhodes, so every now and often a Rhodes-Children' bout is staged.
Horn Blowing Sergeant
When Sergent Rhodes heard of Miss Childers' intention he rushed over to Presidency Durkee but unwillingly tendered the meeting. The Sergent of horn-blowing proclivities objected to certain details which Miss Childers was working out for her father. She was working out what she had to do. He insisted upon her following the instructions of the head of musical activities. The faculty backed Miss Childers in conservatory schedule, and according to cyewitnesses, Dr. Durkee and his gallant sergeant retreated as anger as wet hens. The jury is now running on Miss Childers' schedule, and Dorsey will have to be satisfied with the blowing of his bugle. By Board legislation, Miss Childers, and not the head of the Conservatory of Music.
Durkee Lost Pep
There has been no other outburst that has reached the ear of the writer. The days of trouble are just past, and the days of repentance pop for a scrap. His humiliating repudiation by the Board of Trustees in reinstating the dismissed professors over his protest and entreaty, has taken some of the light out of it. It would have been a blow to any man, and especially to Dr. Durkee, who had so skillfully engineered certain fanned foes out of the university, and planned a university had to economize, and then have these men returned to his bankrupt pay-sheet. It certainly was hard to believe, and the trivial trickery, it is only in a sprint that dishonesty can cross the line in advance.
Annual Worry With Senate
Another worry is the annual need of begging the Senate to restore the items thrown out by the House. The Senate is ready, perhaps, as in former years. Of course the Howard University appropriations have been made a republican obligation; so they are ready to sure of passing despite the objection of certain members in the House.

The writer is reliably informed that had not the Congressman from South Carolina put the Howard appropriations on the toboggan, other Congressmen from elsewhere There are many Congressmen friendly to Howard University who have been impressed with the irregularity of administration at Howard and want willing to do the university permanent harm. Durkee Harmful The trustees' adherence to Dr. Durkee's cause is sure to be injurious to the welfare of the institution. Enough the Senate will doubtless be able to tolerate the terrible absurdity of enthusiasm of the part of colored people. Some of the most influential Negro citizens have taken the stand that Howard University without federal aid will be able to University with Dr. Durkee. In fact a brief on Dr. Durkee's administration is assured consideration before the bill comes up in the Senate. They are willing to change and they want it right a way. They are so desperate that they are willing to accept any claim that will guarantee the removal of a greater one. Destroy Appropriation Some of the influential Congressmen have requested that they have worked if the destroying of the appropriation will be preferable to the retention of Dr. Durkee until some legislation can be enacted to cure the real evil and method of selecting the board of control.
It has been found that no ride can be attached to an appropriation. The matter will only require the matter will only the way to cure matters, but such a bill is likely to sleep on the calendar until "economy" has swept away the need for this action, there is a growing feeling that it might be better for Howard University to lose the federal appropriations if such benevolence is going to continue in offices of Dr. Durkus.
**Come To A Head**
The whole matter must come to a head. This clash between Durkheimism and Negro self-respect can be some success has been recorded on the side of self-respect. The public, which at first was perhaps relegated to this constitution, has since been accepted by the intelligent public as the most dependable exposition of real conditions at Howard. The language has been temperate and facts have been supported by evidence.
**Unprepared**
The impression that has been made is that Dr. Durkus is wholly unprepared for his position, that his actions are not consistent with the politicians, and that his correspondence is freighted with untruths. Negro intelligence has been assailed and much respect sampled under Dr. Durkus. America can sit still under such palpable humiliation, they are not entitled to better treatment. Only the American can sit still under such helpless glory.

McMillan Tells Why Peary
Took Matt Henson On
North Pole Jaunt
Captain Donald McMillan, famous Artic Explorer, broadcasting from WJAZ Thursday, January 21, told why Rear Admiral Robt. E. Pearson, North Pole in April 1998. He said: "Admiral Pearsey has been criticised for not taking a white man to the pole, but taking instead, the colored man, Matt Henson. "During Pearsey's 15 years effort to reach the pole, Matt Henson panied the pole, and took instead of the best dog team drivers in the world today. "Some of our men, dog teams and ledges were dropped over the water, and we had to supply stations for Pearsey's return trip from the Pole. I went with the expedition to a point within 150 miles of the Pole, and when I was taken for only two men besides the Eskimos in their best lap to the Pole, Pearsey made the decision and picked the fittest man. There is no other answer than because he was the best man in the party.
Admiral Icary showed no racial discrimination but chose the fitness man for the job of making those long marches in a temperature 60 degrees below zero." Henson, now living in Brooklyn, the government job and is the only living civilized man who has been to the North Pole.

More Money In Being Colored Than White
New York.—There is at least one man who is colored because he can make more money than by being white.
His story is printed in the current issue of "American Mercury" magazine an article titled "South" by L. M. Hussey. His name is withheld, but from the text. Indications point to Walter White, Asst. Secretary of the Navy. His name is seated at lunchroom with this man in the city of New York. His avocation was literature, but he earned his livelihood as an executive in the Navy. He was identified with the blacks, although otherwise he was physically white. There was in him a trivial tincture of Negro blood, but he was reasonable scrutiny that to me his claim to be a Negro seemed rather an affection. We were talking of the frequent passage of light-colored Afro-American men, to the white men. "For some that may be difficult," I said, "but for you it would have been absurdly easy. Tell me, why is it you never become a white
"You understand," he answered, "that a Negro goes white for but one reason—to betray himself economically to the theater, to stay white without detection he gets away, of course, from certain indignities. He doesn't have to take the seat, seated in the theaters and in the concert halls, and he can unchallenged into fashionable restaurants and so forth. Nowadays, however, some of us have discovered that one of these—and I am an improved economic status doesn't necessarily follow a change of color.

Pullman Porter Fired Says Company "Plants" Liquor
BY ESTHER LOWELL
New York, F. I.—Boston's municipal court freed Pullman porter Malary C. Oglebyss of a liquor charge framed on him to prevent his election as employee representative, under the Pullman Company law, to a Chicago conference. Oglebyss is dismissed from service after 25 years' work with a clean record.
Once before the Pullman Company faction, he was a false charge stick on Oglebyss. He was charged with transporting a passenger without turning in the fare, but was cleared. He was arrested on this charge two years later. He was charged T. Tetten, now field organizer Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porterts, to the previous wage conference."

At the same time there came a terrible bunging on the detective bureau's door. Nobody seemed to know just which way to go first.
Mrs. Estell Baughman, ord girl, failed to tell her husband, Mona Baughman, that she had changed jobs and secured a half time position. When she returned home unexecutingly early Monday and found her, Edna Walker Harper, white, shrouded in her bed lin-

But the spirit of the institution, the building principle of the training people, not in imitation of any other institution anywhere in the world, but, primarily, basic unimpaired community needs, is just as it was in early days.

And by staying black we find there are certain benefits that outweigh the other benefits I mentioned a moment ago. Take my case for example. I know well enough what my talents are. At any rate, I know what my achievement has been. I know the intelligent man, and I think I have accomplished a few things somewhat out of the ordinary. At the same time, I am a man who have talents equal to mine, and who have done as much as I have. And most of these men are lost in the white world. Particularly, they haven't succeeded in making the connections, the contacts, the friends I have. I've found it easy to make notable connections. I have remained a Nogrd, because I'm avowedly a Negro. You know the sort of people that come up to my apartment, and you would. Would I know these men easily if I were white? I don't think so. They came in the beginning out of curiosity and怕被 determined to put aside prejudice. Here, they said, 'is an intelligent colored man who is doing something. He's a curiosity. We want to investigate

Board Probes Probable Faculty Aid In Armstrong Strike
Washington, D. C. (AFRO Bureau).—Board of Education in meeting last week unanimously voted to make a thorough investigation connected with the school system and any part directly or indirectly in encouraging the recent walk-out of Armstrong High School students. Students went on a strike following an announcement of the Board's demotion of Captain C. Newman, principal of Armstrong Instructor at a salary loss of $1,300 a year, effective February 1st. Students went back to work Monday of last week because she has since been dismissed from disorder. Members of the Board, however, cherish the suspicion that perhaps members of the faculty indirectly encouraged Captain Newman as principal. Investigation of the strike is being made by the school officials. The action of the Board of Education of the personnel committee headed by Mrs. Coralille F. Cook. Assistant superintendent Garnet C. Wilkinson recommended the demotion on charges involving inefficiency.
Protests by a number of civic organizations including the American Legion failed to sway the board from continuation to oust Primal New York.

“BECK” WILL BE BACK
Hotloway and Day are playing In the Pacifle Coust league and have
signified their Intention of returning. Dame rumor had it that Beck-
with would not return, but Rossiter seld he had not been released, so
the king of Home run sluggers will again don « Sox uniform.
One oF (wo trades will most ely tke piace that will round out
one of the best clubs that ever represented Buttimore. ‘Taylor has bis
eyes on several young players that are scheduld lo make the regulars
hustle for thelr berths.
“you can tell the reople they will see a Wifferent hal! cluty from the
one they have been seeing in Baltimore”, said Taylor. “with the materiat
that is alreudy there and 2 Cew additions 1 expect to give other clubs
plenty’ of troubte.”
Georgie Fial who has been keeping it by playing basketball al
winter will be In his place in short ston. Fial is rated ns one of the
Rreates! baskethall players in the Hust xnd has made quite a name or
one of the New York tenms.
“Ike Wright who is one of the greatest coaches in basketball,
spoke favorable of a series between Morgan and the Atheuluns while §0-
ing over to Washington Inst Saturday. The writer suggested that It
would be one of the grextest games ever presented to Baltimore.
Wright srs he has it under consideration and it will probably take
place in March. ‘The. series will call for the hest two out of three
ames. and the procseds to £0 to the athietic funds of both orgunizations.
Sparks certainly will My when these two quints lock horng on the hard-
woud.
Quite naturally the question arises as to which ia the hetter center,
“Herb” Keller or “Lanky" Jones, and can Keller's experience counter
balance the freak one hand playing of the Morgan pivot min.
Both have the helght.and reach. It will be the sume old contest
between ue and experience versus youth and reliance, But where will
Wright be. as he Is coaching both teams?

BALLY-HOO IS ON 7
‘the bally-on Js on for a Dempsey-Tunney fight among a certain
ciass of sport writers. However the New York Hoxing Commission
has come out with the information that Mr Dempsey will not be allowed
to fight any opponent ,in New York or states under thelr jurisdiction
unui he meets Harry: Wills.
Some writers 60 so far as to claim that the public does not wait x
Wals-Denpsey fight. when this same public has been clamoring for
tha bout the last six years, Philadelphia hus como forward with x bon-
INde proposition for Dempsey to fight Wills at the Sesqul-centennial
celebration next year. Mixed bouts are perfectly legal In Pennsylvania
30 Mr. Dempsey Will have to show his hand now once for alt.
Fioyd FitZlmmons still claims that he has the signatures of Demp-
sey ani Wills to meet some place in the West next fall. and Rickard
fngists that he has Dempsey's contract signed by Jack Kenrns.
Los Angeles operatorn offered Dempsey a big proposition, and ‘Tom
O'Rouke Jumped into the scrambic last week with the ansiouncement
that ho will give the champion $500,000 to meet Wills in the Polo
Grounds.
Wills’ forfeit makes Dempsey Incligible to fight anyone cine and

Several League Clubs Fail To Keep Books And Proper Statistics On Team
Chicago, IL—Fans in the National League circuit have been wondering year in and year out as to why so many clubs fail. They also are puzzled over the facts that newspapers fail to give information about the issues being issued on the 1st and 14th day of each month. Newspapers are accused of withholding results. Sport writers are accused of being biased against the league, who have been selected to keep an account of the standing have been coasted time and again, accused of withholding results in order to favor this or that team, and is really the task to ask the fans. The truth of the matter is simply that the National league has no business men who operate the clubs. That there are many games of games won and lost, results of batting averages. There has been an effort made, even so far as to place fines on clubs who do not send in the results of games, but that has not remedied the sit-
Games Held Out
Club owners and their business managers hold reports of games four and five days after game is played. The last summer wherein the results of such game were to be telegrammed each after game for the percentage column of games played. The games will be followed up with a special delivery letter with the box score of each game. The matter was simple to explain. The official score. A carbon of his report for the daily paper could be used. But the games played at Birmingham on the American Giants field were the clubs withhold games when they lose, send them in when the games are won. This affects the results of the reasons why the standing caries at times. Reports of expenditures, rail fare and salaries are not sent to the president's office, therefore the president himself does not exactly what it costs to operate. He does know what each club made, so if some were successful is up to the owners of each club to explain.
During the existence of the league, Foster has sought to have the league assume the responsibility of an office, working force and a president's salute, and allow Foster to operate the league's business out of a five percent commission. Out of the commission comes stenographer's salary, office and each owner has posted $100. This money is for a franchise, but it is also protection against nonpayment of guarantees for the league. When the public may see and know just what each club collected for their shave, we have gone over the books of the league to find follows. When one goes over it carefully you will not wonder why the league seeks men with business sense and knowledge, but cannot and will not work towards the success of the league.

"TAKING OFF
By DEHART HUBBARD—World's Champion B
The passing of Red Grange from amateur to pro ranks, has caused considerable discussion throughout the writer this has seemed almost needless. As long as we athletics there is no harm in a young man entering desires. Then why the argument, that he has a baseball because a professional sport man have been playing in the big leagues and some of salaries for their services. Has anyone heard any great because Eddie Collins, Christy Mathewson, George Sisk others played professional baseball? Let's player is a licensed doctor, the winter months, but his anyone raised a complaint pro baseball during the summer months? To the coaches have constantly strived to turn out players of and a player who makes the grade receives lots of favor.
Many Turn Pro
Next, let us take basketball. Today it is the usual star college basketball to take up the game when the game competition.
There are any number of ex-college players on the teams of the country. I know of a team in Detroit the most entirely in business. But the same is true over the country, as far as basketball. One strange angle to the professional football coil centers around Red Grange almost exclusively.
Why should this one man be made the center of all play? The greatest player ever lived has been used. For perhaps it is the latter fact that occasion on his turning professional. Ernie Nevers. Turned pro at about the same time as Grange, but theirs of a storm of protest. It seems rather unfair to him to so much adverse criticism.
To the writer it seems there should be no argument. If Grange is a public character enough to obtain thousand dollars for a few games of football, more power if there were professional running and jumping a hundred thousand or so for a few races, do you think about doing it? Neither would the average man. If the sport fan only realized the years of hard, practice and sacrifice it takes for a man to become a sport, he would hesitate before decriing the fact that advantages of an opportunity to get some concrete efforts. With that in mind he seems that Grange did thing he could have done under the circumstances.
Chick Suggs
Tex Rickard has placed Chick Suggs first in his pennantweight fighters. He places the champion third on quite a plate. The sporting world has long been aware of the best of the bantamweights, and this rating of Rick the fact more evident. All that remains in the fight is making the rating official.
Some has suggested a tournament of the leading teams to determine the national champions. While we not a tournament to determine the national pro championsal amateur champions among the amateur teams.
Wilberforce University has a new stunt. A few year old basketball team insisted on Wilberforce fulfilling game at the Force. Because of this the Ohio school with all Cincinnati teams. Now she will play no Cincinnati reimbursed to rhe amount she had to pay under contract.
It looks like Harry Wills is again being showed a match with the champion. If Wills ever gets a chance will be too old to carry out his end. His case is even more that of Sam Langford a number of years ago.
Fen Taylor, former manager of the Washington Potomac team who played with Hurlburtson for years, will assume the managerial position on the Baltimore Black Sox for the 1926 season. Taylor signed on the dotted lines while in Baltimore hurlburtson for more it is numored that Pete Hill Sox manager last year will pilot the Birmingham entry in the National league.

"Tex Richard, it seems to me, to be quite foolish to write off a franchise, because of his attempt to promote Dempsey. Let Dempsey play the game he makes others bear the brunt of his shortcomings as a crown defender? If the commission says the state dealing with him is banned, then why monkey with the buzzsaw? The commission can come of Dempsey that if he comes in and displays an evidence of sincerity about his business, that's fair enough. It plain enough, that's certain. Why any man wants to fly defiance in the face of that
"I know Rickard's angle. He doesn't relish a mixed bout. He never has. He thinks it will be better than he thinks it. Thinking as he does, Rickard believes it within his rights to put Dempsey on with someone else. It can't be done. He can't be done for Willem being sidetracked. The Negro challenger is entitled to his chance, in all fairness. The Commission intends to see justice done. Of Dempsey, he will be meeting Harry Wills he will make his peace with the New York Commission. He can't duck it. When he does duck it he is tipping off his

Next, let us take basketball. Today it is the usual custom for the star college basketball tosser to take up the game when he finishes his collegiate competition. In my number of ex-college players on the big professional teams of the country, I know of a team in Detroit that is composed almost entirely of former collegians. But, nothing has been said about it. Why should this one man be made the center of all arguments? He isn't the most advertised player. Perhaps it is the latter fact that occasions so much comment on his turning professional. Ernie Nevers, Wilson, and others, turned pro at about the same time as Grange, but they were not the center of the criticism.

If there were professional running and jumping and I could get a hundred thousand or so for a few races, do you think I would hesitate about doing so? Neither would the average man. If the sport fan only realized the years of hard, constant faithful practice and sacrifice it takes for a man to become a champion in any sport, he would hesitate before decrying the fact that the champion was not a good athlete. He would be less effortless. With that in mind it seems that Grouge did the only sensible thing he could have done under the circumstances.
Chick Suggs
Tex Rickard has placed Chick Suggs first in his rating of the banantweight fighters. He places the champion third on the list. This is quite a tribute to Suggs. He has the winning weight, has long been aware of the fact that Suggs is the best of the banantweights, and this rating of Rickard's only makes the fact more evident. All that remains in the fight with Rosenberg to making the rating official.
Some has suggested a tournament of the leading college basketball teams to determine the national champions. While we are about it, why not a tournament to determine the national pro champions, and the national amateur champions among the amateur teams.
Wilberforce University has a new stunt. A few years ago a Chicago Basketball team insisted on Wilberforce fulfilling a contract for a game at the Korean. Because of this the Chicago school broke off relations with all Cincinnati teams. Now she will play no Cincy teams until she is reimburse for rife amount she had to pay under contract. Try to beat that.
It looks like Harry Wills is again being shoved aside as regards a match with the Cincinnati. If Wills were a championship fight he will be too old to carry out his end. His case is even more pathetic than that of Sam Langford a number of years ago.
Worth Retelling
Knute Rockne tells one on a couple of sandlot football teams. These teams were engaging in mighty combat. Neither side could scope.
One of the teams was using signals that ran way up in the thousands. 944 lanes were there some of the play players stumbled on the fourth quarter this team called time out and their star player stumbled on the field. He was about 6 ft 4, and weighed over 200 pounds. The cheering was thunderous.
"One million 342 thousand, 642," came the signal. The interference moved to the right. The star grabbed the ball, and in two or three giant throws the ball knocked his backs, passed them, looked over his shoulder, and yelled, in giant hussle.
"Interference—Follow Me."
Which is as bad as the tale of the soldier who was caught running away from battle.

They are not freaks in any sense of the word but young men who displayed their native talents and trained their skills to play the modern game.
They all realize the importance of reading the best literature of the game and the necessity of seeing the great players like Tilden, Johnson Richards and Williams in action on grass, on clay, on wood and on the hard concrete courts of the far West. These young men have not only been successful players and winners in fast competition on the home courts but each of them has saliated out among the neighboring halls and made his mark.

Solves Mystery Of Dead
Man Found In Wagon
WIFE FOLLOWED STAR
BOARDER WHO FLED
Albert Brice Admits Killing
Rival Who Stole Woman
From Him
Guilty of murder in the first
degree without capital punishment,
was the verdict returned
by a jury. In the case of Albert
Price, 538 W. Mulberry street,
charged with shooting to death
George Guerre of the same ad-
dress.
The alleged shooting took place on December 2, 1925 and was first brought to the attention of the police when the lifeless body of Carter was found in a wagon in an alley some distance from the Brice home. At this time a verdict of death from natural causes was rendered by the Western. The Bluet coroner. It was not until after the body was removed to the morgue that through post mortem examination was held that a small bullet wound was discovered in the small of the back.
Stole His Wife
A new investigation was began and it was found that Brice had made threats against the dead man. Carter was said to have been a boarder in the home and he had left under suspicion of having been familiar with Mrs. Brice. This was strengthened when the new woman is alleged to have left the house later. The girl was with which the murder was committed was bought by Brice at this time and according to witnesses he had made statements to the effect that both would be killed if he ever caught them.
Thought He Was Burglar
On the stand Bruce declared that he was awakened on the night of the murder by someone in his room. Thinking the intruder a burglar he fled before realizing that it was Carter, who had returned for his clothes. The plea of the unwritten law was also shattered when Attorney Ephiam Jackson, who represented the accused was about to put the wife on the stand and at the moment admitted that he was not lawfully married. The jury deliberated for three quarters of an hour before they returned a verdict. Sentence was suspended.
Parents Club
Elects Officers
The Parent-Teacher Club of school No. 101 A, which was organized in December held its first meeting for the new year Tuesday January 26. After attending to a splendid program developed by Miss McAbee and rendered by classes 6-1-A and 6-2-A, by the large group of enthusiastic parents present, the constitution was read and adopted.
A plan to purchase two pianos for the school, which had been launched in the first meeting was then brought up by the President, Mrs. Clara D. Robinson, who said that she had so much interest in the abolition and determination of the members of the organization to complete this plan that she ordered the pianos placed in time for the children to enjoy them during the holidays when they had closing exercises. She also reported that $80.62 was reported as the result of the first effort they gave for them, most of which was collected thru envelopes distributed to the children during prior to the meeting. Mrs. Gramby's room led the list by bringing in $40.
A roll call showed 62 members present and $2.65 collected in dues. The following officers were elected for the year:
Mrs. Clara D. Robinson, president; Mrs. Sarah E. Travers, vice-president; Francis Adams, secretary; Mr. Thomas, Principal of School 101-A; treasurer; Mr. Oliver Strawn, chairman of Board of Directors.

MORON ATTACKS WOMAN HE LURED TO LONELY SPOT
Accused Admits Criminal Assault After Promising Jobs Police Say
BOTH VICTIMS THEN IDENTIFY THE MAN
nal Court
Richard White, 36, 248 Durham street, alleged moron, was committed for the action of the grand jury Wednesday on charges of criminally assulting the woman after hurting them to West Port upon pretext of getting them jobs.
White was arrested by Southern District police after a chase that covered several blocks. The arrest was made upon the complaint of Mrs. Amanda Hebron, 1133 N. lin street, who notified a carfleetman her car had made her escape from the man. Mrs. Hebron declared that she had gone to an employment agency Wednesday to obtain work. She was about to be taken by White when she stated that the people for whom he worked had sent him to find a woman to work for them. They went to West Port and White stated that he would take a short cut to the home through Wonderland and then a distance from the roadway he attacked her and criminally assaulting her made his escape.
Faces Two Charges
Finding her way to the street, Mrs. Hebron notified the police who arrested White after chasing him in an automobile. When he was placed under arrest White was questioned by Captain Cooney in connection with another assault on Harlem Avenue, which she reported on October 10. The similarity of the two assaults aroused the captain's suspicion and after a grilling White admitted having committed assault White was said to have used the same method. After the woman was unable to obtain work he approached her with the same proposition and took her to Cherry Hill where he robbed her of a pocket book containing $5. A search of the vicinity proved fult at the time. White was positively identified by Mrs. Henderson at the hearing Thursday.
Gathers His Tomatoes With Stepladder
Columbus, Miss.—P m n p a l l y Wynne, 72, retired truck gardener here, grows tomato vines 72 feet high and gathers his crop with a stepladder. Wynne explained he worked his truck so deep that he could put a hoe handle into it half way up to the end. His patch is one-eighth of an acre and he uses only a hand plow and stable manure. He uses ponderosa seeds and gets tomatoes up to 3 1-2 pounds in weight. "Late in the fall, just before danger of frost, I strip the vines of all the green tomatoes and put them under shelter to ripen. These I sell up into February for 15 and 30 cents a pound. In this way I get both the early and late fancy marigolds off the same ground each season. "Last season I sold $1300 worth of tomatoes.

Thoughts Of
The Founder
Selected from the writings of the founder of the AFRO-AMERICAN
"The business man is like the farmer, independent; he has always something coming in, but he has got to be on the job all the time. He does not think he can run his business any old way. I think it was Ben Franklin who said, "Keep thy shop and thy shop will keep thee." He must not expect to have his shop keep him unless he pays proper attention to the shop."
The local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is to be congratulated for another term as president. Mr. Kogers' effective work last year makes the outlook bright for a banner 1926. We commend a continuation of the fight against segregation in criminal and traffic courts, Uniway Busses and Department
More Ritchie
Governor Ritchie is still at it. His talent at present is spent making, and having, the most presidential nomination on the Democratic tickle. The Governor spoke Tuesday of last week in New York before the lawyer's Club deprecating the encroachments the Federal Government made in recent years on rights States to manage their affairs. Governor Ritchie is an ardent advocate of state prohibition amendment because a part of the constitution and Congress passed a Volunted Enforcement Act, which said this to surrender, "For more than a century," he said, "the high purpose of law in this country was to protect life, and to prevent the rights of the individual and any who would invade them. Now the notion is that law can be used as a scheme to human conduct and relations, and to secure the moral well being of the individual by forcing all the people the proposals to areas of groups or people."
The Afro-American under ordinary circumstances is inclined to sympathize with the Governor of Maryland to elect Democrat the he be. In this case the same shoe which pinches him, does not pinch us. We, with the majority of the population, are interested in interference at which Mr. Ritchie rails. So-called federal meddling which made Maryland dry, also gave women the ballot. He gave the Smith-Lever act. Congress made available funds for orientational training of colored children—where before the state of Maryland put its approval of the United States to Maryland the doors of which are closed to colored folk. Governor Ritchie deplores the fact that the federal government should force upon us the classes or classes of people. This may be true, but Mr. Ritchie does the self same thing in his administration of the state of Maryland. The partyity depicted by the Governor's party force upon us, who constitute the minority—Unqual school salaries in county schools and no representation on
The Governor's majority closes the colored state institution at Crawsville to us as employees. We are not enemies. As commander-in-chief of state police, he sees it to that the minority hasn't a single patrolman in Baltimore. He should be deceived therefore by the Governor's plea for the rights of minorities. He is not contending for a principle in government, but a repeal of the laws in another state in the State house at Annapolis.
No Disagreement
If colored people are opposed to theatre segregation, why did they permit it at the Fifth Regiment Armory in Y. M. C. A. gave its musical last year?
This was one of the questions asked Secretary R. M. Moss of the Urban League at a conference of friends we met last year. That we are not absolutely agreed among ourselves on the anti-segregation right.
This is true, yet hardly the full reply. At the Y. M. C. A. musical tickets were sold in blocks to organizations. The white Y. M. C. A. "purchased a block of tickets and disposed of them. So also did the organization. No part of the army was set aside for one race or another.
We voluntarily segregate ourselves with private friends have their right to ask. "What does a fuss when we segregate you?"
It needs to be made plain that every adult person is opposed to segregation; however, he may differ others as to the method of combating it.

"No Room In
The Inn"
It is very doubtful if the lovely Nazarene shall be able to come all Baltimore this winter. The plans were made to invite Him Pastors were made to agree upon a tentative plan to unite in a city-wide evangelical campaign. The city was divided into districts, plans made to appoint captains and workers who should visit every home in Baltimore to appeal to join the Army of the Lord.
Then, someone remembered that workers tired out with their rounds should have refreshment while reports should be headquarters. When wouldn't the press to meet together to make these reports, to eat a sandwich and drink a cup of cocoa, and to get the inspiration from the campaign directors. Better if colored cards do for the press in their churches an dwitches in sheers.
Certainly the Man of Nazareth would have no objection to meeting the white brethren first in their church and the church. It isn't that Christianity. His religion teaches the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man. It does. Pastors of both races believe it. But the church could not go back to my congregation with an evangelical program that included white and colored people eating in the same room.
And as the man of Stenteau said, "I would go back to my people with a program that involved segregation."
So here we are. Nearly 2000 years ago they put Joseph and Mary in a stable. "There was no room in the
Today Baltimore may postpone a city-write evangelical campaign. The city has long enough to house black and white. As a reporter put it in last week's AFRQ-AMERICAN, "Christianity in Baltimore is a place of goodwill."
"There is a humorous sheet in Chicago called the "Whip." It is a penny-dreadful. The Pittsburgh Courier has had the physical dyspepna ever since Coolidge forget Vann." —From the Current Issue of the Crisis
When Dr. W. B. B. DuBois goes back our counterpart in the manhole for the rest of the book, compared for the barrage, which is sure to follow, sit back and watch the show.
It is worth remembering that President Coolidge has done quite a bit last presidential election the Courier used eight inches across the top of its editorial page to announce the fact that its choice for president of the Courier is Coolidge. Every week for 52 weeks this fact was blazoned to the world in editorials and news articles. Today the Crisis says Mr. Coolidge has forgotten all about the campaign work of the Courier and its editor, Mr.
We are surprised to learn that Mr. Vann and the Courter offer any returns on their campaign investment. We believe their inspired advocacy of Mr. Cooleidge for the press and the civilians and that they are today unconcerned whether the president remembers or forgets.
Homeward Bound
Bishop W. Sampam Broks, former pastor of Bethel Church, now head of the homework work in West Africa, is homeward bound.
Cable to this effect, reached the APRO last week in time for publication in the late editions.
His home town will welcome him home, and give him rest from torrid sun. Old friends will cheer his soul, line his purse with gold and send him back to minister unto those who need it.

EXPERIENCE
By E. R. Bennett
I plucked a rose from a tree in bloom. Because of its sweet perfume.
Because of its sweet fragrance, I fear it 'lose its sweet scent so rare.
It lived, as the from my love, and thirst'd it live the sweet breath.
But put aside, it withered t and death.
So life without love is death.
So life without love is death.
I met a maid in the town of youth, forsooth my heart, forsooth my heart shall rest in this love new-born.

0 The Liberians Expecting Increased Immigration. Only Skilled Americans Wanted.
1 Hundreds of American Negroes are expected to American Negroes within the borders as a result of the proposed development by Harvey Firestone, the great rubber mugate. Not only will Negroes come from the South but also from officials of the Firestone Company. It is said that there are more Firestone officials now on their way than have ever come into the country because of the war. The American Legation with half its personnel on leave is preparing for the colossal task of handling the extra official business which will
The introduction of American capital on a large scale will revolutionize Liberal industry. It is said that twenty plantations in the last two years the seeds have been saved from the rubber trees of the one rubber farm now under cultivation. Reckoning that five years' growth is required for each tree and that someone planted, it is easy to see that the rubber industry is here to stay.
To the millions in America whose foreparents left Africa generations ago, this plantation has never been offered before. Already a call has gone out from the local offices of the rubber planters for forty stoneographers, typists and bookkeepers. In this same couple of filling the positions who are not already employed. It is thought that the large corporation will attract employees from the government offices by offering higher salaries and promises of rapid ad-
The demand will be for trained men and women, others needs not apply. Besides, the demand for mechanics, etc., should have no trouble in finding employment, according to the unofficial statement of the work at present.

The laborer is twenty-four cents per day or less, this scale will probably be raised, but even if doubled, the American laborer can not compete with the
Dosn't Oppose Sergeation and is Full of Race Pride
I do not approve of segregation am full of race pride, but I feel that we have got to go to the root of the problem. I don't believe God never fails to grant us our privileges when we are fully prepared to receive them. The Children of Israel did not get into the Promptures. I don't believe I have no doubt that our children will, but we can cut the time shorter. A good way to do this is for the rich to educate the children, and for the poor stop fighting the rich, and the educated stop fighting the uneducated and the uneducated stop fighting the educated, and feel that we are not the children and female children of one family.

"THE BASIS OF RACE ADJUSTMENT"
By Thomas Jackson Woofer, Jr. Published by Glint and Co. 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City. Price $1.40 postpaid.
"This book is primarily an effort to give the authentic facts concerning the different phases of Negro life in the United States today. It is a comprehensive face. And he proceeds to present it clear, in somewhat colorless n.Bligh, a series of facts on Negro Health, Education, Production, and Religion in the Negro Cooperation.
Mr. Woofer is from Georgia, and his book is. I imagine, intended primarily for Southern students interested in social services, to read to quite figures against the white South as for it. He shows the iniquities of the tenant system, and recognizes that not only economic opportunity, but its treatment by his white students in the Negro's庶族 from the South.
The chapter on Education discusses the distribution of school funds. In one Southern State where the North Carolina total population and own about one-twentieth of the property, they receive only one thirty-fifth of the child's school when one is retiring figures, to spare the feelings of the state and not give its name! They show clear evidence that the educational advantage a white child has who lives in the black belt. The school money is appropriated per capita and the white counties in let us say, Alabama, gets oply his lawful share; but on the same basis of distribution in one of Alabama's counties more than its per capita share. It gets also a large proportion of what belongs to the Northgro school to the North. Woods gives a beautiful tribute to the Northern teachers who went south in the days of reconstruction, and adds that it is not yet time North to withdraw its philanthropy.
While the book is an admirable compendium of facts it is nevertheless suspicious as a way out of these conditions, and Mr. Woofter buffers, as his title suggests, interfacial cooperation. But he tells us very little u

Miss Augusta Savage, whose 22 pieces of sculpture were among the outstanding features of the art exhibit last week at the art gallery, wrote that Negro art yet had to solve some very serious business problems. What Miss Savage means is that we must develop some way of making sculpture not only in esthetic value but in earning a livelihood. Few people who admired these pieces by Miss Savage realize what it means in sacrifice to produce them. Here is a rich business field for some of our young men looking to business careers. We have solved the problem of the next step. Distribution is the next step.
There are thousands of homes, schools, churches and civic institutions who are just waiting to set some of these pieces up in their places when the enterprises young people want to about it. There could be made easily a clear profit of ten dollars on many of these pieces. A thousand pieces sold in your would not sell well. Here is a possibility worth thinking about.
Fred Watson, cartoonist for the APHO-AMERICAN, has given pieces to this exhibit, says the practical side of art offers one of the biggest fields in art.
This week over in Washington an interesting thing is happening. The Republican majority HAS DEFINED to pass the House bill that made it an administrative measure with instructions to put it over. Then the Republican leaders get their heads together for the job.
You notice that no filibusterter is going TO RETARD THIS MEASURE. They are. The Republican leaders are this week that is majority in a majority. Even the motorious "Coley" Please, who would he taken as a joke, has been given to understand that this is no joking machine.
But now just wait until we Done Anti-lynching up and up and up and week that great machine will become. Honestly tha, we hope they will fool us this time.
Luther Burbank, the California wizard who gave us new plants and fruits, has come to the conclusion that there is no heaven or hell as we know it. In all his life and experience, he says there has been nothing to assure him that human beings live on in a soul after death. He has been able almost to grasp hands with the Creator Himself, to juggle nature and CREATE A SEDLESS ORANGE. A THORSELESS ORANGE. A MERRICAN BEAUTY ROSE: he has been able to meditate more than most men on the wonders of this world and universe, yet he is not as wise perhaps as the simple Christian man and woman who their fate on the time of death

Still Creating This World
But some of these days, perhaps a million years from now, when GOD FINISHES HIS WORK and WORKS WORKING THIS WORLD AND THE HUMAN BEINGS LIVING IN IT, all will believe in Him.
That SIXTH day in which God is supposed to have MADE MAN is not yet evolved has not yet begun to its work. Right before our eyes it is remoulding our own group from the sun kissed men of Africa into the integral part of nation upon the face of the earth.
The final finished human being will be a composite of all the races now on the face of the earth. God will give different directions in his plan of evolution, to gather in the rigors of the cold north and soft warm sentiment of the equatorial regions.
He is now converging them, the white, the brown, the yellow and black. The flow of this man is a great future man is inevitable.
He is preparing him for the day when he shall have harnessed the mighty waters, leveled the mountains, amphibilized distance and learned how to fish that the products and privileges of life.

Frozen Assets And Responsibility
In an amazing statement of banking procedure, the Rev. J. C. Austin one of the directors of the Stee City Bank of Pittsburgh which recent board on account of "froze assets," says:
"It sat in conference with the board whenever I could listen to the reports of business and cast my vote for and against same.
"It was never my purpose to be a business manager, real concern in reality. I attached my name to these institutions as I have done to the secret organizations and Negroes' general business in town that I might have to pay this group of ours to the spirit of cooperation, ownership self help and race pride.
"In spite of the closing of the doors of the Steel City Banking Company, I feel the need to listen to the latter, I myself, the brains or the time to operate them or not."
Here we have in a nutshell the cause of most of the failures we have had in high finance. DIRECTOR OF SUPPONSEBILLING is the most amazing thing about it is that here is a minister who says out loud that he was willing to coral the dollars of his poor congregation of men without having any idea at all WHAT THEY WERE DOING WITH THESE DOLLARS.
And what after all in a frozen asset? Generally a real estate deal in which some man influential in bank or with the money of his own able to make his and others get such a big commission or bonus that its net value is impaired. MOST OF THIS FROZEN ASSET BUSINESS IS DOMINIALLY BUSINESS OR CRIMINAL IGNORANCE. Most you don't enough young men trained in the technique of business to man our enterprises, let's prepare now to train them. And if ministers of the gospel can ensure their flocks to take race pride as figure heads on directorates which control the money of poor families, let them at least not be parties to the affairs.

This is indeed a great people will be forced more gro newspapers to keep thinking and doing.
We must look to the soul of the race turned wrong
It is interesting to note how the Negro press in the past decade has become the voice and the channel through which the mind and imagination can be reached and influenced.
This is indeed a great sign of progress. White people will be forced more and more to read the Negro newspapers to keep up with what the race is thinking and doing.
We must look to the Negro press to find the true soul of the race turned wrong side out.
From Superman To Man
No, I am not going to give a review of this well known book. The caption is merely to catch attention, and the book is a fine room. I am conducting a course in Negro Problems. At present the class is familiarizing students with books and authors bearing on the subject. Or Thursday morning I assigned to a member of the class the book — From Man to Superman — on Friday morning, just before the recitation period, a gentleman knocked at my recitation door, who proved to be a well-known author of the book in question. To my great pleasure and delight, I found that he was willing to spare the time to present his own book to the delight and benefit of the class.
When I made the assignment there was a question: What should you put in the presence or whereabouts of the author. Such an unexpected and circumstance may well be called rogue circumstances.
Thoroughly Informed
The class found Mr. Rogers to be a thoroughly informed and most interesting man. The story of his book was present. The author himself is simple and unassuming, direct and straight forward in his analysis and presentation. From Man to Superman, he was more informal and republished in a number of leading Negro papers. It is one of the most interesting and valuable contributions to the literature of the race presented to Mr. Rogers was also good enough to relate something of his experience during his recent travels in Europe which have been published widely in the Negro Press. **Dunbar Tribute** The current issue of the Literary Digest will be found an interesting poem, entitled, "Not Forgetting Paul Laurence Dunbar." This poem is by Scofield Thayer, editor of the Dial: It appears in the Journal of the American literary journal. I am deeply struck with this tribute because its appreciation rests upon Dunbar's pure art of poetry without reference to his dialect or Negro paper.
"Poets I have loved so deeply, Poets I have loved so long, Teach me, oh gravely, so much, Teach me, so much," He goes on to speak of the "language of moonlight" and the "waters of dawn," "the wilful change of the moon," "the mulches of April and the terns," "the all of these subtle portraits, Dunbar was superb. This Negro poet was so widely famous for his dialect description of Negro life that we often overlook the excellence of his pure and unloved poet White Influence
Mr. Dunbar stayed in my home in Washington before he was married. He often recounted to me the temptation to forsake pure song for dialect. His white admiration is that he gives them more and more of the dialect. The Negro is always expected to be funny. The white man never tires of him as long as he is amusing. But he hesitates to take him scriri
Mr. Dean Howell said that perhaps several other poets at the time might have equalled Dunker in unalloyed self-importance by himself when it came to the portrayal of his race in poetic dialect. In this domain he remains to this day, not only unexcelled, but unvalued. But he has been able to be defined which will live with the language. All of which goes to show that genius transcends all boundaries and barriers of race and appeals to the universal heart.
Eminent Recognition
This recognition of Dunbar by such an eminent literary authority as the editor of the Dial is a tribute which greatly delights the heart of his widow, and which will increase as the years go by. Incidentally this incident illustrates and enforces the mission of Roland Hayes, as I tried to set forth in my harbour reflections on the genius by the narrow limits of race. To grieve the artistic spirit by the purblind requirements of race prejudice and proscription is the one artistic sin in the world. I am a Christian. We have no reason to believe that race prejudice will soon give way on the lower plane of flesh and blood, but in the higher domain of music, poetry and art, it finds no place for judgement.
Universal Appeal
Thomas Nelson Page once said to me that when he was healed he was unconscious of his war or blood. Tanner's pictures hang in the art galleries of the world. The fact of the blood ties of the artists is of curious interest to those of whose breed he is and whose art, but his genius serves to mankind.
It is human nature to get as near to greatness and glory as possible. The English love Shakespeare, the pearce, the Mollein, the Italian, the Germans and the Germans Goethe. But their racial and national ties are merely incidental. The status of Shakespeare was not disturbed in Berlin during the world war.
Religion And Art
Unfortunately religion has divided men and races and nations, science and art have tended to the same. Whenever a race is Negro, race is not. Poet like Dunbar, a painter like Tanner or a singer like Hayes, such indications of genius, will go further towards bringing about the brotherhood of mankind, the propaganda and preachments so fondly rely.
There is springing up a school of young Negro artists in the several domains of art, the items of the creation of the nation, the encouragement should be given them. They help enrich the blood of the world which courses

Dr. Frank Glenn
I notice that Frank Glenn, the former editor of the Century Magazine, now president of the University of Wisconsin, syndicates a daily areal newsletter throughout the United States. How he can snatch time from the busy duties of the presidency of on-air television universities in America to write these daily editorials is a marvel to his admirers. These editorials are short, pointed and crisp. This requires the more time and susisted labor.
Those who have had experience in composition know, not only that brevity is the life of wit, but that it imposes the hardest tax and tastils and that a weekly contribution makes no little drain upon the men's strength and resource of one otherwise engaged in intellectual pursuits, however with time and experience.
Forceful Writer
Mr. Glenn is one of the most forceful writers in America. He deerves to rank with Brisbane and Adelaide, but he is not of his production. But there is this great difference. Bj. Shuane and Crane are journalists. Glenn's editors are written with the left hand. Journalism today is the chief gift of reading influence the minds and conduct Frank Glenn is undoubtedly as effective through his editors as he is through the management of a great university. There he rachest the best of his editors, and his editors are read by millions.
Negro Press
It is interesting to note how the Negro press in the past decade has become the race, and channel through which the race, and imagination can be reached and influenced. The form has been dignified so that no writer need feel alone in his view through their columns.
At one time the Negro newspaper was presented in such bad type and poor proof reading that no writer could contribute to it, and today they are at least half a dozen Negro newspapers whose subject, purpose and manner of treatment, will compare favorably with the best edited white journals.
The newspaper a great sign of progress, the white people will be forced more and more to read the Negro newspapers to keep up with the race is thinking and doing.
True Soul Picture
If the young ambitious Negro would use the same diligence and effort to prepare worth white man for the job, he would for an occasional appearance in the white journals, the intellectual expression of the race would be greatly illicitated. He will not be allowed to express himself in white channels of publication except along lines laid down and approved by the white race. We must look to the Negro for the strength of the race turned wrong side out.

What Should She Do?
Woman Travels All Way From South To Ask Friend Should She Accept Marriage Proposal
By MARTHA EVEIXN BROWN
What shall I do? This is the true story of a woman who came all the way from Virginia to ask a Druid Hill Avenue friend should she marry the man who had just proposed to her.
Had you been in the vicinity of the Union station on a rectin Sunday you would have seen a quaint, pathetic little woman dressed in anti-gated costume with a painted cardboard suitcase get into a taxi. You would have been inclined to smile for she did look queer. Yet she was pathetic, tragically so.
The taxi deposited her at a certain house on Druid Hill Avenue where a friend of southern acquaintance lived who greeted her with a hearty hug such as only the people of the south can give. This ceremony over they settled down in the parlor to tell each other of their recent experiences, to recall old acquaintances and incidents.
There was much to tell, for Miss Maggie. Ash had not visited her friend in four years and since that time they rarely corresponded even the friendship was deep and life long.
Down in her Virginia home, where she cared for an aged mother, her life was marked by a lack of reached middle age and had known little but world for herself and mother.
She had little time for amusements, there were times when she thought of romance, as every woman does. This thought had been mellowed by remembrance in which her romance in which a lover proved untrue. Romance will come no more, she often sighed as the short years of her life were nothing ahead but the grim reality of her struggle for existence. Especially did she sigh when she thought of her niece, who had come a husband and babies. She wanted both but she brushed away a tear and went to work again. She grew from the annies she saved and soon she had

The price was marked down from twenty-five dollars," commented an
Everywhere I went I heard money value attached to all manner of articles and items, and I seemed to rise above this placing of the money tag on things under discussion. But of course, the picture was not beautiful because of the artist's vision and skill; the dress was prettier on account of its material and the art of the designer, and the neckace was pleasing because of the lights and colors. Is it any wonder that the children copy us and judge their possessions by the price? How much better it would be if we were on a line of line and color, to show them love.

These are the days of the Charleston madness and it is very essential that we be on our guard less we do the thing and thereby remove our own madness, and the funness, as an expression of pep, and keeping the entire body active. Dancing properly done sends a glow from head to toe. It literally pumps vigor through the body. Intensely, it pumps the muscles, which she rises upon the balls of the feet, lifts the diaphram, straightens her back, lifts her shoulders, and raises her head. Thus is developed poise and strength, and helps the scravey and trims down the rotund. Those dances that bring into action every muscle are the ones that are reducing, such as the Charleston. These dances call for a beautiful dancer, has a fine sense of rythm and synchronism, and these qualities become an integral part of her mentality, and permeates not only the body but also the she does. If her personality is a reflection of her mentality, will not polyrhythm, balance, synchronism, when attained, enhance that indiscrepable thing, we generalize as beauty.
Exercise means developing, and dancing surely is exercise: a well-exercised body means one of us, and so often means beauty. Muscular development insures natural and graceful curves of the body and these are an absolute requisite for beauty of form. You will notice, smiles while she is dancing. This is not a put on expression, but natural; because the dancer lends her body to the music, and the happy facial expression follows as a matter of course. Here I wish to draw the attention of the social dancer; so frequently I will dance, and you will be difficult for the beauty tourist to see when you apply, because it will have become a habit. Cultivate the smile, if you apply, and in keeping your youth, as well as your a pleasing partner.

bought a little home. But the time came when the mother too passed and with her passing went the loss of the factors which had kept Maggie. All alone in her little home the night did not seem to shine so bright and the nights seemed darker. For a while she hurried her added sorrow in more work and more sacrifice in the bank account grew into four figures. It was during this time that something happened. This happening was the cause of her coming to Baltimore. She last ten tenants was a family of a husband, wife and one boy. She had visited them often, and then the wife took ill and died. To her surprise one day this widow husband as always to become a mother. At first she had brushed even the thought from her mind. She had some money, a home and a good job. Why marry and besides neighbors had gotten in to not been so good to his first wife.
But lonely nights, the latent call of the womanhood, long pent up and the never-dying hope in all human hearts, the true virtue, true, all served to open her heart, if not her reason to arguments.
"What shall I do?"
Taken from the too big for her to answer and she bundled her things and went to Baltimore.
"It's your money and home he Maggie loved and the love of her heart bare."
"Girl, you are getting along all right just as you are, and you are getting mixed up with wife-killing or to believe me, I would marry him," the daughter said. "You want the man; the boy needs you and he asks you."
Well, that certainly is enough to make a marriage; sure, marry him.
They say into every woman's life, "You want her, that an hour of romance will repaint a life of sorrow. Back to the south she went after her wife. Romance won, then she she will be happy, then she she will not. But romance won.
Miness in the simple every day things to train their eyes and minds to see the beauties all about us which are beautiful and cannot be tugged. It is certainly not children to judge everything by a money standard. They should be taught that the price of an article is but one of the many distinguishing characteristics of a kind of achievement should be emphasized more than the money value. "It must have taken the artist long years of study and patience to get a picture of a wave, to bring a picture to a child, to introduce that the picture is expensive to purchase. "It took me ten years to get the man who was a wave, said the man who was exhibited of unusual camera pictures when some people praised his work and exclaimed over the wonderful effects of sky, mist and wave. And he heard him speak so earnestly and with the price which his work went on, and told her children about it. She impressed them with the tireless patience and enthusiasm of the artist instead of the price which his work commands.
Watch your own conversation and you may be surprised to note how easily and flagrantly you have slipped into the fault of speaking of the things you see, wear or eat. There are many values in the world bigger than the money value and the people who live the most lives. are the ones who judge life and its significance by other standards.
A summary of the effect that dancing will have us an old toward beauty is this: It will develop symmetry of form, grace of movement, facel to no other goal than health and mobility and mental activity, while leads to no other goal than health and beauty.
CARRY—You ask about the kind of powder to use. There are numerous colors of powder to select from these days. Take plenty of time to make the selection, being sure that the shade is one such as will blend with your tint of skin. Powder is for embalishing the complexion. We must first avoid trying to hide our natural color, we know too well that many of us wish to be as white as possible, which is often the reason that when we are dressed our whole toilet is spoiled with white or pink powder when we should use a more creamy or browner one of the many between shades that would make us attractive rather than grotesque.
Apply the powder generally with a clean powder puff. Take at least five minutes to blend it in to the skin. Always put the rouge on before powder, and after you have finished the powdering then lightly run over your face with your rouge puff. Note how wonderful your face looks.

Saturday, January 9th
Polly Fratt had lived in a whirl of preparation since the day a special delivery letter was brought to her saying that her sister, a teacher, had been the winter with her. Polly had not seen Emma in-years. So soon after Emma married Ed Johnson they had gone to school. Since her bereavement Emma had lived with her married-son, but she had evidently tired of that and desired a change. So she had invited herself to Polly so she had been brought back to her husband died, for she had no children. She had a nice little house and kept it to herself as her comfortable income permitted her to do. She came to visit her once a year without no one's opinion to consult. And she considered herself as happy as any woman who be who is 61 years old, has a good appetite, sight and vigor and is highly concerned by the locality in which she lives.
Of course Emma's visit was bound to prove experimental to say the least. As young girls the sisters had never been allowed to have her own way a bit too much for other people's comfort, and Polly liked also to have hers. Secretly Polly knew that she had not outgrown this fault, and I presume that Emma had not either.
"But were older and we've learned to make allowances," Polly said her teacher. "I remember the Emma is my guest and if she wants salt instead of sugar in her tea why that's her privilege. I don't interfere with it." For her arrival, she appeared unexpectedly, issuing with nimble alacrym from a cab. Polly, opening the door was rather discomforted by the difference in her own apron and cap, but she quickly recovered and gave Emma a warm welcome.
"You've changed considerable Polly, and her own apron and cap, but I could have picked you out in a crowd but for that mole on your chin."
She entered the house and, sinking into a chair, cast an appraising gaze at her own.
"You had gray wall paper on this room last time I was here. Have you ever known it?" this any better. And you've still got that old clock Henry set so much story. I couldn't get along without my棉Polly said.
"Keeps good time, eh?" "Certainly. It hasn't wider a minute as I know since Henry hung on the wall forty years ago next time time files! Where does it go to?" "Land knows. Emma laughed She was plump and jolly. Polly was thin and grave. Emma had been in the house two days Polly perceived that there was a greater difference between them than their birthdays warranted. Emma had lived with young people and had young ways of crochet work; at least, it seemed sly to Polly, but she forbore expressing herself. She talked much of a musical comedy, she seen the children left home. "I wish you had the chances to see things that I do, Polly," she said "People get so behindhand in a place of this size. Of course Virginia it could have added in an impulse to propitiate. "I found it so," Polly replied. "never did like a lot of noise." How do you stand that clock on your wall? I can hear it tuck clear up to my bedroom. And when it strikes it fairly raises the roof."
"You're used to it, I suppose, but then you ought to be after living with it for forty years. Oh, dear me."
Emma playfully covered her ear as the clock began leisurely and with a great rumbling of its internal workings to strike. Polly flushed cool.
"Only one thing could add to this performance," jested Emma, "and that would be for the silly creature on the door to open her mouth and hold Polly's mouth was shut grimly. 'Till tell you, Polly,' said Emma, scratching her nose, thoughtfully with a glint of silence that clock 'till buy you that nice little chimney affair we saw in Burton's window yesterday.' "Silence my clock," cried Polly. "I don't want to be the Tory. The very ideal! Henry bought that clock and set it going; it is fun forty years. Why, I could live without the coolness that I could live without my mother."
Polly drew a long breath.
"I can see," she said, "that you are not cured of your old habits, Emma." "Neither are you," Emma retorted, "What is wrong with you own life is nothing to be ashamed of. I don't think a body ought to insult upon having her own way when it makes for another person's discomfort. She began to crochet faster than ever. But the next morning at breakfast, Polly, passing behind her sister, gave an invitation of alarm. "What that sticking out of your ear, Emma?"
"Oh!!" Emma was evidently confused. "I stuck some cotton in the ear I don't lie on last night when I went to bed, and I forgot to remove it that night." She said. "Polly hastily changed the subject that night Emma asked to have, her room changed. That little back room over the kitchen said, "Just as you like," returned Polly. The affair was fast taking on the proportions of a battle between them. Polly was not sure what clock. She could not understand it disturbing Emma—Emma who was used to all the tumult of a city. It was only that Emma wanted her own way and this time she wouldn't have it. No, Polly was resolved on that score. She would not touch a finger to her old clock to gratify Emma's joy. All referents to the clock ceased between them, yet the thought of it was constantly in Polly's mind and she knew in Emma's also. They were no longer happy together and it would become less happy as time passed.
Emma began to spend more and more time out of the house. Morningings she went over town, afternoon she went into the neighbors; she was very sociable and was speedily becoming acquainted. Polly was sitting alone one morning when Tommy Watkins came with a basket of eggs from his mother. She was very mischievous as Old Nick, so Polly always said to herself. If Emma had been there she would not have had to leave him alone while she was playing with her sister, she came back as quickly as she could she found the boy innocently

Staring from the window.
"It goes you are getting to be a real good boy, Tom," she said, patting him on the shoulder.
Scarcely had Tom gone than Emma entered the house. At that instant, as though to greet her the old clock began to spasm. Instinct of pausing at the hour—cleven-went right on. At the nineteenth stroke Polly got out of her chair and went to it.
"That Tommy Watkins," she muttered.
As for Emma she could only sit at the old machine in astonishment hands over her ears. She didn't notice nike shoes, dangled the clock. Was there no bang it? In vain Foll peeked and prilt it kept on-thirty-seven. "My land!" said Polly. "What shall we do?" it acts like all possessions. "I'm in forever." "It's an eight-day and justly, I sound. Emma sighed firmly."
Forty-six. Forty- it was deafening. Suddenly Polly rolled in and asked, "What are you doing?" The wheels mumbled an instant, effectually, then a heavenly silence possessed the room. Emma sat down. "Here!" she said. "That's a tie. Do you know, Polly, I was packing up my things to leave? I couldn't stand it." He tore to. "Polly replied, generously. 'I won't start up again as long as you'll stay with me, Emma. I guess my own sister means more to me than my old sister isn't that Tommy Watkins a beast?"

From Mr. Gordon’s Note-book
Mr. Gordon went through an average of
190. papers each week, jottirig down in his
note books estimates of papers and totaling
these estimates at the end of the year.
. The following is a sample of his notes:
*} “AFRO-AMERICAN (Feb. 21-25):
News—Apparently all the news of col-
ored peoples. Unique method of present-
ing first paragraph in larger type (slightly
indented) than the remainder of the col-
umn. Sometimes this paragraph has the
aspect of a plain statement of fact; at other
times the aspect of the editorial. Statement
of fact all right as introduction to story; but
editorials would more properly follow, than
lead, the story. i ~
“Editorials—Excellent editorial in inter-
ceptive vein on closing of Brown and Stev-
ens’ bank. _ Interesting editorial on failure
of Maryland courts to send white murderer
to gallows. Three in all.
“Features—'Day by Day’, ‘15 Years
Ago’, ‘Old Timer’, ‘Professor Fudge’,
‘Amos Hokum’, ‘Watson's Cartoon’—all
are very good original features. Also us-
ual syndicate features. ‘Unbléaching
America’ interesting.”
“Norfolk JOURNAL AND GUIDE
(Sat., Mar. 14-25):
- ™News—Fairly national; well written;
does not print all the news.
» “Editorials—Rather flat; not forceful.
“Make-up—Somewhat jumbled; seems
to be slipping.” Editorial page, however,
well made up. 4
All in all—Issue as a whole is average.”
’. Philadelphia TRIBUNE §Feb. 28,25):
“‘News—Not a great deal of news, but
such as there isis well written. Much news
in form of short personal items.
“Editorialsk—Commonplace. :
“Features—A few syndicated features.
- “Make-up—Seems to be some sort of a
system in make-up. Type attractive, mak-
Newspapers selected as the most outstanding for the past year are listed in :
the following order:
| 1,°The Afro-American (Baltimore, Md.) 7, The Philadelphia Tribune
| 2. The Chicago Defender 8. The Savannah Tribune
3. The New..York Amsterdam News 9. The New York Age
4. The Pittsburgh Courier 10. The Pittsburgh American
5. Norfolk Journal and Guide 2 11. The Kansas City Call
6. The St! Louis Argus ‘ 12, The Chicago Whip .
The AFRO is rated by,Mr. Gordon—
FIRST—-As All Round Newspaper SECOND—In Excellence of Features
~ SECOND—As to News Value FOURTH—In Value of Editorials
FIFTH—In General Appearance
| FIRST ALL ROUND NEWSPAPER-—FIRST ALL RACE WEEKLY |
ing paper easily read.
“All in all—Good avearge weekly.
Pittsburgh COURIER (Mar. 14. 1925):
* “News—Fair amount. Mpre space giv-
en to social news display than is true'in any
other paper. Fairly well written. Poor
taste shown in publication of story headed
‘Black and Tan Resort Raided’; probably
taken word for ~word from some ‘white’
newspaper.
“E-ditorials—Weak aid commonplace.
“Features—Thrusts, and Darts’ best.
‘The Digest’ written by a man who evident-
ly is ill-informed on most matters is super-
egotistical. ‘
“*Make-up—Jumbled.
“All in all—Good average.” *

In closing my notebook | wish to men-
tion a breach of newspaper ethics which is
shamefully common among Negro editors.
I refer to the practice of reprinting editor-
ials from exchanges without giving proper
credit—or, of, any credit—to the exchange
concerned, It is a pernicious practice and
ought to be discontinued. No newspaper
may retain creditable standing among hon-
orable contemporaries once it has been
found guilty of theft of this sort.
Two journals which had been selected
for a probable second list were excluded be-
cause, in examining their editorial columns,
I discovered stolen matter. One of these,
long noted because of its (?) splendid edi-
torials, carried one from the New York
Morning World. It happened that] had
readit in the World,’so recognized it. There
was no credit line, nor anything else to in-
dicate that it was not a product of this edi-
tor’s own brain. ,
The other paper had reprinted an edi-
torial from an issue of the Boston Sunday
Post. It was easily recognized because it
happened that I myself had written it.
Both these papers were excluded. 4

BAPTIST MINISTERS REJECT DRIVE PLAN
Monday Meeting Vote Unanimously Against Segregated Sin Battle
COUNTER PLAN ALSO GOES ON THE ROCKS
Suggestion That White Ministers Use All Churches Not Approved
Because of the segregation involved, the Baptist Ministers' Meeting voted unanimously not to accept an invitation to participate in the proposed city-wide interment of the original deceased to be conducted here and went on record against it at their regular weekly meeting at Trinity Baptist Church. This action followed the report to that body of action taken in a special meeting when then a plan by a special committee of race ministers was not approved by the joint group. This plan, it is said, suggested that white ministers use colored churches in some of the districts. The matter was taken into consideration by the white ministers present.
EXPECTED ACTION.
According to the TPC, Mr. Jefferson the institute expected some definite action, and in view of the fact that the whole proposition is halted because of the race question, they decided not to participate.
A joint meeting of pastors of both races was held on January 5th at the institution's fish at the purpose of laying plans for the campaign. The general plan called for distributing the city and for furnishing workers from the churches who would work out from headquarters in the various districts.
Developed in the discussion that lunches were to be served and that these were intended to be served separately. This set the colored and white ministers at variance and after much discussion a committee of both groups was appointed to settle the question, a call meeting the day.
Trying to adjust the situation, the colored ministers at the meeting Friday asked the white ministers to come over and hold meetings at their churches since the whites could not open their doors to joint meetings, and the group was told that the matter would be settled at another meeting, according to Rev. Robert W. Jefferson.
Director Speaks
Dr. A. Earl Karahan, white, the evangelist who is to direct the drive, outlined the campaign to 200 ministers at the Westminster Presbyterian Church Monday during which he made no reference to the racial phase of the program. The colored ministers were again disappointed for their failure to address the intention of the white ministers as they had been promised a decision at this time at the call meeting Friday.
So far as the whites are concerned, the plans are all made and the campaign is to begin Monday February 11, announcing at the meeting in the Presbyterian church Monday.
BISHOP HURST IN S. CAROLINA
By REV. J. E. LOWERY
Columbia, S. C.—Bishop John Hurst of Baltimore, who is the presiding bishop of Florida and South Carolina of the A. M. E. Church, was here Thursday.
He had summoned all the presiding elders and the members of the executive board of the six annual conferences to meet at the University of January 21, and they came. There was not one absent. There were several of the prominent laymen present from different parts of the state.
At 12 o'clock the faculty of Allen and the student-body assembled in the auditorium of the administration Building. It was crowded. Dr. D. H. Sims, the president of Allen, acted as master of ceremonies. He introduced the bishop who made a address. His wife was next introduced and she made a good speech.
The roll was called and each presiding elder laid on the table $100 and a few of them put down more than $100. When they had finished with the roll call there was some laughter. The council then proceeded to fix the places and dates of the meeting of the annual conferences for 1926. The South Carolina Conference will meet in St. George November 24. The Columbia conference at Winnsboro October 27; the Northeast at Darlington, October 28; the Central at Georgetown November 17; the Palmetto at Georgetown, October 12; and the Central at Manning, November 10.

This is the favorite Bible verse of Joseph C. Briscoe, Principal Vocational Training at Douglass High School. The text next week will be the favorite verse of Dr. A. F. Saunders. Mr. Briscoe says he like the above verse because it applies to all men who have fought the battle of life.

Agnosticism is a subtle form of faith in Unknown God to whom the Athenians ever God.

Flippant perfection, is an unfailable Almighty unto perfection, is an unfailable deception, dishonesty or hypocrisy. Father Dwelling "The Blessed and only Sovereign, the King who alone possesses immortality and dwells man has seen or ever can see." "Without the mystery of Goddiness." Well did Zopharing, find out God? Canst thus find out that is the height of heaven; what was the whole of the universe? The measure thereof and broader than the sea.

Agnosticism is a subtle form of faith in the existence of God. "The Unknown God" to whom the Athenians erected an after is the only true God to whom Paul declared unto them. The agnisties of Athens were feeling after him perhaps for him," for he is never far from any of us, who have said, "For we are also his offsprings." The struggling, growing faith of agnosticism expresses itself in the mood of the man who said to Jesus: "Lord I believe, help thou mine unbelief." Flippant perfection, is an unfailing sign of shallowness, self-deception, dishonesty or hypocrisy. The Almighty unto perfection, is an unfailing sign of shallowness, self-deception, dishonesty or hypocrisy. Father dwells in secret." Paul said: "The Blessed and only Sovereign, the King of Kings, and Lord of Lords who alone possesses immortality and dwells in unapproachable light-no man has seen or ever can see." "Without controversy," said Paul, "is the mystery of Godliness." Well did Zophar say: "stay thou by searching, find out God!" Canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection, what can we ask of him? What can we ask of the earth, what can thou know?" The measure thereof is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.
The agnostic assumes the existence of God to the extent of feeling after him and knowing when he has not sufficiently found him: "Kor that can be known of God" said Paul, "is clear before them; God has shown it to them. For ever since the creation of the world, his invisible table through what he has made."
FAITH OF AGNOSTISCISM
God's Spirit said: "I have been found on for you, the one shown myself to men who will was." The Spirit said, "known God," says Paul, "is clearly before them. For ever since the creation of the woven eternal power and divine character—have what he has made."
"What! now, do we conclude?" says Paul not to show brightness attained it, that produced by faith in him, rightness, did not come up to it." So the found his Spirit revealed in their souls. The spirit is to have it yourself. That is what the pure in heart, for they will see God." "Ways John, we shall be like him, for we will be like him," the Spirit faith in him trumped the God himself. For what human being can except the man's own Spirit within him? the thoughts of God, but the Spirit of God." Paul says, the hearthens who were not a law of God, show brightness, produced by faith. They were poor-looking will was. "They went on living life like little of God was revealed in them.
Now, faith is executive ability that kills not understood. Abstract faith has no saving by itself if it would good needs to show periods of religious decline." "Good faith with hearthens showed their faith by their good deed."

bid; "I have been found of men who shown myself to men who were not found of the character, which is before them; God no longer the creation of the world, his in divine character—have been clear." So we conclude?" says Paul. "That brightness attained u, that is an upbraid; while Israel strived for law that come up to it. So they found a place in their soul of God, power it itself. That is why Jesus is for they will see God." "We know that shall be like him, for we shall see it possesses this hope in him tries to make spirit fathoms every thing," says Paul or what human being can understand. "He had no good deeds to show, just so bad, but the Spirit of God. The heathens who were not striving to bring uprightness," attained an upbraid. "They were not looking for God, but went on living life like little children in them. Their ability that keeps on k abstract faith has no saving deeds, no good deeds to show, is dead, as decline, "had faith without good their faith by their good deeds."

God's Spirit said, "I have been found of men who were not looking for me. I have shown myself to men who were not asking what my will was." They found the character of God, "For all that can be known of God," says Paul, "is clearly before them; God has shown it to them. For ever since the creation of the world, his invisible nature—his eternal nature and divine character—have been clearly perceptible thus when he hisses." "What I do, so we conclude?" says Paul, "That heathen who were not striving for uprightness attained it, that is an uprightness that was produced by faith; while Israel surviving for law that would bring uprightness, did not come up to it." So they found God's uprightness; found his Spirit revealed in their souls. The only way to know any sort of spirit is to have it yourself. That is why Jesus said: "Hlessed are the men of our life; they will see God." We know that if he appears, says John, "we shall for them we will see God." We know that every one who possesses this hope in him tries to make himself as pure as he is": "The Spirit fathoms every thing," says Paul, "even the depth of God himself. For what human being can understand a man's thought, except the man's own Spirit within him." Just so no one understands the thoughts of God, but the Spirit of God." says Paul, "the heathen who were not striving for uprightness" by a law that heathen would not striving for uprightness was produced by faith. They were not looking for God, per asking what his will was. "They went on living life like little children, and the character of God was revealed in them.
Now, faith is executive ability that keeps on keeping on in ways not understood. Abstract faith has no saving power. Jesus said: "Faith that is good deeds to show, is dead." The Jews, during periods of religious faith, without good deeds, while the heathen showed their faith by their

Sunday, January 1st: MEN: FEEDS FIVE THOUSAND MEN—John 6:1-71.
After these things, Jesus went over the table of the Tiberius. And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles, which he did on them that were diseased. And Jesus went on to tell them with his disciples. And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
When Jesus lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come into him, and bought bread, that these may eat? And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
Phillip answered him. Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient to make a little. One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him. There is a lad here, which lobes his harley bikes, and two small ibes; but what are they among so many?
And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down in the grass, and took the leaves; and when he had even thinks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and bowled of the

FEW FAMILIES READ METERS SURVEY SHOWS
Reporter Finds That Most Users Never See Gas Or Electric Dial Readings
COMPANY COMPUTES COSTSPERHOUR
Housewife Can Now Estimate Exact Cost Of Ironing Cooking Or Washing
The AFRO begins this week a series of articles on how to read your water and electric meters and how to compute the cost of lighting, cooking, washing and ironing.
Can you read your gas meter and figure yourself your monthly gas bill? Do you know how much your gas stove is costing you each hour of use or what was the cost of cooking your breakfast or dinner? Do you know exactly how much it costs to iron your clothes an hour with electricity? These are some of the questions that practically every householder answered in the negative to a reporter for paper this week. Although once each month the gas company sends a man around to read meters, not one family in a hundred knows what it is all about. They get their bills and pay them. "Yes, I use an electric iron, said Mrs. N. G. Faulkner, 415 N. St.橡尔 street, that I have never considered what it costs to use it by the hour." "We use electricity in our home but we have never given any thought to the actual cost of burning a light an hour or day," admitted Mrs. Teulah Stanley, 2551 McCallum street.
"I have never been near reading my gas meter and naturally never have considered whether my bills were accurate or not," said Mrs. Lina Grimes, 908 Madison Avenue.
The Rev. Charles E. Brown, 423 N. Bond street said "I can read gas meters sufficiently well to judge when my bills are correct."
Milburn Dell, 1533 E. Monument trot, who conducts a cleaning and pressing place, stated that he read both meters each month and checked up on the bills. He have often doubted the accuracy of gas and electric bills, but I cannot read the meter, and have never tried to make a check-up," said George Q'Melia, 1001 Arlington Avenue, Govans.
From most households visited by the AFRO reporter replies indicate that few people ever pay any attention to the gas and electric company, although the Gas and Electric Company will glue supply charts and installation for computing meter uses as well as cost per hour of various electrical and gas appliances.
Your Meter
Your gas meter is a very simple instrument. It works on about the same principle as your lungs. Inside there is a little bellows with a set of valves. When the pipe leading into this bellows fills it up a valve opens and allows the gas to pass on into another bellows. The movement on the valves causes those valves to close the dials to record the amount passing through them. When you take a deep breath you do what the bellows do only the bellows holds a certain amount of gas and this is recorded by the hands on the dial.
The amount is expressed in cubic feet and you pay for these cubic feet of gas just as you pay for a certain number of pecks of potatoes.
The average range gas burner will consume 25 cubic feet of gas each hour. If therefore you have four of your burners going, you will be using about 100 cubic feet of gas

PREFERRED STOCK
There is an opinion among the general investing public that Preferred Stock is much safer than common. This may or may not be. It is to be remembered that a stockholder, even though a preferred one, is a partner in the enterprise, while at times a preference may involve a little less risk, in event of reorganization or a business depression, as was experienced in the 1990s. If safety would not mean anything, preferred stock as issued today carries a cumulative clause, that is, should there occur a time when their fixed rate of dividend was not earned, it became a charge against the company, and would have to be paid. Anything could be paid on the common, and any preferred stock have voting privileges, and some do not; those that do not carry voting privileges have a clause to the effect that, should the management default four successive dividend periods, the preferred stock would assume the Company's management, until such as back dividends had been paid up.
Preferred Stock has its place in any financial policy, where the aim is the raising of a large sum of money, because it enables the management of the enterprise to a good extent, and would not be interested in Common Stock. Preferred Stocks are grouped mainly around four sets of conditions. First, there are those conditions having to do with priority in dividends; second, seeing the debt do with the voting control of the management; third there are those conditions having to do with the creation of securities, having an equal, or prior, lien on earnings. Fourth, there are those conditions having to do with the distribution of assets in event of dissolution.
It has been demonstrated time and time, again, that preferred stock does not offer the strength of a bond, neither does it possess the speculative possibility, perhaps the ultimate benefits have bought control of many enterprises thus ownership of low-priced, non-dividend paying common stock at bankrupt figures. By skillful financing and the deferring of preferred dividends, earnings have been invested in the enterprise after the enterprise had reached a very prosperous stage, the preferred stock was retired at a price fixed at the time of issue, leaving the ownership of a business, which had been made prosperous at the expense of the enterprise. On the hand, in event of receivership which is usually followed by a re-organization, which many times, leads to a vamping of the capital structure of the business, the preferred and common are assessed alike. In conclusion this article, I strongly suggest thorough investigation into the various clauses governing the preference before investing.
per hour. The cost of gas in Baltimore is 85 cents per 1000 cubic feet. This 100 cubic feet costs you eight and one half cents. If therefore you use two burners two hours to cook your dinner the gas cost for this is eight and one half cents. Your water heater uses 40 cubic feet per hour and therefore each member of a family of five should use the water heater for 15 minutes each twice per week for baths, the cost would be eight and one half cents as the total consumption would be 100 cubic motors. Electricity The computing of electrical costs works on the same principle only that electricity is measured in Kilowatt. A unit of electric power is measured by one watt, 1000 watts make one Kilowatt hour. The present price per kilowatt hour here in the city is eight cents. A 20 watt lamp means a lamp which will burn 20 watts an hour. In fifty hours one such lamp will burn 1000 kilowatt hours of electric
A 500 watt iron will therefore burn 4 cents worth of electricity each hour. You can therefore gage your cost by the kind of appliance you buy.

There is a suit pending in the United States District Court to obtain an injunction that will prevent betting at race tracks in this state. This suit will no doubt be bitterly opposed by the birds who claim that the government is going too far when it won't let a man throw away his own money.
The main objective to have about a muddy track is that we are to only one who gets struck. The thing we can't understand why the birds who always want put you next to a sure thing generally have patches on their pants.
Of course they could never break up betting on the races without closing up all the barber shops, pool rooms and bootbuck parlor.
We only know one guy who ever made any money at the race track he used to sell hot dogs in the grand stand.
There is a sure way to bet the game however. Go around to all of your friends and get tips on the horse who is bound to win, then take your money down and put it in the bank.
Some ginks are so dumb they think a Kentucky Derby can be bought at a hat store.
Another boob thought that a scratch sheet was the kind they put on boarding house beds, because they kept him scratching all night. . .
Of course a race track isn't a conservatory of music, but a lot of guys who were not musically inclined when they went in, have been known to sing the blues when they came out.
Putting your cash on a horse's nose is a nice way to see your bank roll snuffed out.

30,000 In Cincinnati Live In 6,500 Tenement Houses
Cincinnati, Ohio. (P. N. S.)—The Better Housing League is making a sarmonic effort to improve housing and sanitary conditions in Cincinnati. The league's surveys have shown that the cause of such poor health conditions being in Cincinnati is the fact that colored people here live in the poorest houses and in the most unsanitary sections of the city.
The main points in the last report submitted by the league are:
"There are 20,000 Negro families living in 6,500 tenements in Cincinnati."
"The worst housing conditions exist among Negroes."
"The Better Housing League has combined with the Associated Charities to improve living conditions in Negro quarters."
"The complete housing survey of Cincinnati has been made to locate the worst sections of the city."
"Our work is mainly palliative and will not solve the problem. The real constructive work lies in safeguarding the future.

The main objective to have about a muddy track is that we are the only one who gets stuck.
The thing we can't understand is why the birds who always want to put you next to a sure thing generally have patches on their pants.
We know a ginkg who has only been playing the races five years and now he has a stable of his own. He sleeps there every night.
If we were to do away with the word "parley" at all once a lot of poolroom dicks would think that Americans had stopped speaking English.
Some people have said that tracks are crooked. Come to think of it, we have never seen one built straight.
Horse racing is called the port of kings. We haven't any royalty in this country but we know a lot of perfectly good American husbands who have been crowned for losing the weekly salary across the board.
The injection is to prevent a lot of people from winning a lot of money too easily. The book makers have been caring for this very successfully in the past.
We think that playing the ponies is a great game. Our only grievance is, whenever we put money on a horse's nose he always forgets which end his nose is on.

ASK TRADE SCHOOLS CHANGE COURSES
New York.—Necessity of improvement in courses of study to meet the new requirements of colored workers sought by industry carried T. Arnold Hill, of the Urban League in 21 trade schools of the South.
Mr. Hill decided to make the trip because of complaints coming from employers that many of the graduates of trade schools who were employed in skilled processes were not especially adapted to meet the present day demands made on workers of this age.
In the post most of these schools have been training their workers for self-sustaining farm operation, thus enabling them to mend their farm implements, and machinery, to build small rural houses and barns, and to meet the mechanical demands of rural communities and small towns. But with the change in the whole industrial and occupational needs the Negro is in anyway that the group many of their students for a little different career.
"As a result of this trip many of the heads of schools will come together on Thursday afternoon. February 4th, at the Russell Sage Foundation Building, 130 East 22nd street New York City, to confer at one of the sessions of the National Urban League Conference on
Training for Industrial Opportunity
"With Dr. James E. Gregg, presiding, and representatives from businesses in North Carolina: Voorhies Industrial School, and many others, a new epoch probably will begin in the efforts to equip our women and women in which the Negro is entering."

GOOD MORNING JUDGE
The Afro Court Reporter
The saying, "Even the walls have ears," came true in the house at 902 S. Sterling street. Wednesday night, much to the sorrow of Miss Elsie Malone who occupies the second floor of the house at 902 S. Sterling Marshall occupied the first floor and it seems the two young women had had a disagreement. Miss Malone thinking herself perfectly safe in her upper room, took the liberty to say some very mean things about the lady, the number of friends the flat below, and asking Miss Malone listened with interest as that young woman told them just what her opinion of Miss Marshall was. Little did they know that Miss Marshall was listening through a hole in the chimney. There was a little doubt left however, since the door opened suddenly and Miss Marshall stepped in the room and in a business like way informed them that she was going to clean out the joint. She did clean it out so effectively that all handed the Northwestern Thursday morning.
All were dismissed but Miss Marshall who drew a five dollar fine. "Oh, well. it was worth it," she said over her shoulder as she passed out.
Brown And Diggs
Will Get Plenty
Because they used rather questionable methods to collect a $5 debt, George Diggs, 24, and George Brown, 22 both of 246 Pierce street, are in the jail house now.
Hearing a pleasant noise in the room at 246 N. Pear street, and knowing the place to be unoccupied at the time, Officer Holan of the Western District investigated to find the rear window smashed. He crawled in and made a search that proved to be futile. He was about to leave when his attention was directed to an unexplored area. A flash from his light revealed Brown and Diggs huddled in a corner.
"Your honor," the two men explained the following morning, "the man who owns that restaurant owes us two dollars for a day's work and we want them to collect but we didn't get anything." "Don't worry about that," said the magistrate, "when you get down to the Grand Jury you are going to get a plenty. Take them back.

GETS 18 MONTHS FOR MANSLAUGHTER
cidental Shooting Of Elijah Mitchell
Make Arrest
Found guilty of manslaughter by a jury, William Good was sentenced to 18 months in the Maryland House of Correction by Judge Stein Thursday.
Good is alleged to have shot and killed Elijah Mitchell, 205 N. Carroll street while playing with a revolver in the latter's home on October 24, 2013. The suspect was posted at Richard Brown, 204 N. Spring street, were seen carrying Mitchell along the street following the shooting. Blood flowing from the neck of the injured man aroused the suspicion of a paroleman who placed the men under arrest after removing Mitchell to the Johns Hopkins Hospital. Mitchell died a few hours later.
"The men when questioned at the police station denied all knowledge of how the man happened to be shot. They declared that they were passing along the street and saw Michel lying in the street and offered to take him to the hospital. It was later learned that Good had shot the man by accident while playing with a pistol. The jury returned a manslaughter verdict. He was defended by Attorney W. C. McCard.

$2,000 City Subscribed For
Children's Building Put Into Clinic For Doctors
WAS NOT ASKED
COMMITTEE'S CONSENT
Subscribers Who Gave Funds
Also Not Consulted By T.
B. Assocaition
The $2,000 fund subscribed by citizens of Baltimore several years ago for a tuberculosis preventionarium for children has been diverted by the Maryland Tuberculosis Association into a clinic for physicians.
4. This information came to the AFTRO AMERICAN in a statement from Dr. Martin F. Shaun, M. D., president of the Association answering the question why the Association had not used the fund for the purpose for which it was given or else it is to the subscribers.
PERSONAL
According to Dr. Slonow, he had an understanding with a committee headed by Dr. E. M. Rhetta that the preventorium fund could be spent for some other suitable vocational work among colored citizens. Dr. Slonow's letter was:
"At a later date, I went before a meeting of the cooled physicians in the purpose of discussing with them the feasibility of establishing a Teaching Clinic for colored physicians at Theravend Hospital; to instruct physicians in the diagnosis and treatment of 'tuberculosis by a physician of years' experience.
"The idea met with unanimous approval and acceptance. Six physicians were appointed by the Maryland Medical Pharmaceutical and Dental Association (colored) to take the course of instruction.
The Maryland Tuberculosis Association fitted up two old rooms at the Hospital, and, since November 15, 1924, their physician, Dr. M. M. Greenberg, took with the designated clinicians. During the year, four hundred patients were properly diagnosed and disposed of at the clinic.
"Furthermore, Dr. Greenberg has extended his services to the hospital proper, and a number of patients have been taken in consultation by me. I believe I am a good guarding that the clinics have been advantageous, not only to the student physicians, but to the entire Tuberculosis cause as well.
"I am enclosing a statement showing the funds that have been spent at the Clinic since its organization. We feel that the money has been well spent and will continue to operate the clinics."
"We should like to feel that the clinics have the hearty approval of all those who contributed to the Preventorium Fund. We should like to feel that we have their confidence in the expenditure of this sum of money.
The meantime, I do not believe any of our Executive Committee has given up the idea of having some day, a Preventorium for colored children, and, after that, a mittee has a plan for offering additional funds, we should be very glad to have their communications.

Dr. R. M. Rheita, chairman of the committee, said yesterday that the money was being used for a T. H. clinic without his knowledge or consent.
Similar statements were made by the Rev. A. J. Green, pastor of First Baptist Church and a member of the committee.
Dr. Sloan has called a meeting of the executive committee at 5.30 p.m. Monday, February 1st.

The jury was out only twenty minutes. Davis, who keeps a restaurant and cafe at 350 W. Biddle street entered his place about six o'clock on the evening of December 5th and found Harron drunk, noisy and interfering with his patrons to the reach of the peace order likely occur.
One of Harrold's friends walked him out of the place and advised him to go home and on his return told Davis that that was the third time he had walked him out that evening. Sometimes afterward Davis had occasion to go out of the side door and found Harrold in Moe's room. Davis was able to re-enter. Davis resembled with him and told him to go home. Harrold persisted and Davis brushed him aside with his hand, and Harrold lost his equilibrium and wobbled until he got near the corner of Biddle street where he fell. In falling his head hit the curbing and produced the injuries from which he died. Davis was vigorously and skillfully defended by his attorneys, Warner T. McGuinn and George W. Cameron.
