CREATES STIR CONGRESSMAN IN CONGRESS SAYS OFFICES SOLD TO HIGHEST BIDDER Matter Called To Attention Of Coolidge And Department Of Justice WASHINGTON, D. C.

LANGUAGE TOO BITTER WASHINGTON, D. C.—(Afro Bureau) A memorandum by Perceval Thoby, former Haitian charge d'affaires at Washington, and who represents the 61 committees of private citizens, residents of Haiti, who are members of what is called "the Patriotic Union" of Haiti, was referred to the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations. Action was taken upon the suggestion of Senator H. King, of Utah, after Senator James W. Wadsworth, Jr. Republican, of New York, had indicated that he would move to expunge it on the record. If it should be inscribed, I Bitter On U. S. After the memorandum was read in Liberty, William Wadsworth objected to its insertion in the record on the ground that "it contains some extraordinary bitter denunciations of the policies of the United States, and involves among other things, the charge that the United States through its policy has spread vice and corruption of our Government and its agents with brutality to an extreme degree. Coming as it does from a foreigner, from a citizen or subject of an important power, to me at least it is objectionable." King Standis Sponsor During the debate on either or neither of the statements by the Senate, Senator King declared that he stood sponsor for many of the statements contained in the memorandum. He said that he was for the amendment that "the United States has superimposed upon Haiti a government which the people do not want; that the United States compelled the abrogation of the constitution for many years and forced upon the Haitian people another constitution, under which allens are permitted to acquire real property of the suprised constitution; also the statement which in effect, is that General Russell is practically the dictator and the ruler of Haiti, backed by the marines of the United States. Many Leave Haiti Also the statement that hundreds, if not thousands, of the Haitians are leaving Haiti because of the violence, largely to the occupation of the United States of their country; also the statement that a large area of valuable arble lands of Haiti formerly owned by Americans and American interests, in contravention of the constitution by which the Haitians were governed when our naval forces took possession of the Haitians. And I also approve the statement, that we have no business in Haiti and should immediately buy or marines and let the Haitian people have a government of their own. "I sponsor the statement that for years the Haitians have not had a constitution assembly or a parliament and that Borneo, he presides, is under General Russell, who is supported by our marines, and that Borneo has a council, the personnel of which he changes whenever any member of the same sample is able to his slightest suggestion."

Page Two CHISUM PROBE WAS CAUSE OF JONES OUSTER Statement Tells How Conspiracy At Tuskegee Hospital Was Uncovered CHISUM JOINED THE ANTI-WARD GANG WASHINGTON, D. C.—The Veterans Bureau has not yet taken action in the case of W. L. Jones, chief engineer at the United States Hospital for disabled Negro veterans at Tuskegee, Ala., who declined to resign by request of bureau officials. Mr. Jones has been under suspension since October 12. He was suspended upon an charge made by Johnson J. Chisum, field secretary of the National Negro Press Association, following a visit to the Tuskegee hospital. Mr. Chisum charged him with disloyalty to the hospital administration and complained about the removal of Dr. J. H. Ward, medical officer in charge of the hospital. Asked to Quit On February 11, last, Mr. Jones was requested to submit his resignation. Under date of February 28, he had advised General Frank Hines, Battalion Chief, that he could not comply with the demand for his resignation. Since then the Veterans Bureau has taken no action in the case. The exciliation of the Veterans Bureau brought forth from Mr. Chisum, who has been in the city with A. L. Holsey, secretary of Tuskegee Institute, the charge that there are individuals in the Veterans Bureau with Mr. Jones and "are using their positions in the Bureau to discredit the administration of the hospital by Negroes. For such bureau officials", Mr. Chisum said, and schemes of Jones and his associates a constant source of material. Emperor Jones Mr. Chisum in his statement with regard to the Tuskegee hospital situation also denounced Mr. Jones as a real villain. Mr. Chisum's Probe Mr. Chisum in a statement issued this week tells how he went to Tuskegee Hospital, got into the confidence of Jones, and was charged with some charges against Dr. Ward, Mr. Roney, Property Custodian, and Mr. Burke, Business Executive. If this effort was successful, Dr. Nelson Commanding Officer of the post; Mr. Yates was to have Mr. Roney's place; and I was to have Mr. Burke's place. Then, with clinched fist and lowered hand, hundreds of thousands of dollars are spent here every year for supplies and with our men in charge here, we can clean up and retro in five years. Later, Mr. Chisum got Jones to put this in writing. Then he doubled crossed the conspirators by putting all information in the book of the Veteran in the Bureau. Before coming to Tuskegee, Mr. Chisum said Jones "got a $4,900 contract to build a waterworks in Bohio." He lost money no waterworks. Chisum's investigation in Boley, Okla. stirred up the fact that Dr. Nelson was arrested in Oklahoma, and with misapplying state funds. SENATE APPROVES $218,000 FOR H. U WASHINGTON, D.

Matthews In Washington WASHINGTON, D. C. (ANP) — William C. Matthews of Boston, a professor of history, former General, during time in Washington in preparation of caseloads, has been a fixture of 407, Department of Justice, where he functions with befitting dignity. Mayor Nichols of Boston, has recently appointed Matthews as a member of a unique citizens committee, known as the "Board of Municipal Emergencies." This is the first mayoral appointment. Matthews will be ever ready to assist the city in cases of fire, earthquakes, strikes, resilience, riots, etc. Another case tells of a man who same Negro, the writer adds: "The 'claimed that he was white, but above cases present the most ghost- Boys Blame Girls For Howard Expose, Senior Suspended By J. A. ROGERS RICHMOND—In my last article I pointed out that there is much wrong in the state's debtility bill because it took in too much territory; the state would have had quite a job increasing its debt. I have no reason to or rather lack of accommodation. Among the number that would be classed as colored according to the Richmond News-Leader (wkle), February would be a United States Senator, a United States ambassador to France, two secretaries of war, two presidents of the United States, five generals, three of the most distinguished of loving southern states, one skier of the House of Representatives, two bishops, three Congressmen, one rear-admiral, two judges of the Virginia supreme court, and many of the foremost officers of the state of these are dead but many have no doubt left families. Modified The bill as passed by the house has been considerably modified. One interesting feature of it is the adroit wording by which Aslatsics are not affected but native and foreign-born people are not applicable to white-foreign persons who are ineligible to citizenship in this country." That is, if you can't become a citizen of the United States you are O. K. The Last Stand To continue my review of the revelations of race-mixing, culled from official sources by John Powell for bookstores skimmed North Carolina for a 100 per cent ill white. The articles, if published by a Negro in parts of the South would probably be mob of his heels. Speaking of Montgomery County, Powell writes: "In this county there is a considerable group of near-white mixers out into other communities. Although they vigorously assert their claim to a white status, the white would be almost impossible to have them correctly recorded in the vital statistics of the State. The local registrar was more well known as other white. A leading citizen of Blacksburg stated that it was necessary to record a pany of tribes to the section were any attempt made to record them properly." "Passing" Case No. 2. is of a group of mixed Indian, white and Negro "descended from slaves who had removed people from their homes and call themselves Indians. Some of these people in neighboring counties "succeed in 'passing' and in marrying whites, while they county officials people, but it makes them mad to be so listed. I know they are not white, and I know that some of them have married into white families." Had Several Children The girls were to blame, according to the three male students of Howard University, for being centrally for remaining out all night at a cavern with three young women students of the same institution. The city this week. They were Gilbert Lloyd Edwards, of New Haven, Conn., and Walter Harmon, medical senior at the university, suspended along with the two more months before he would receive the degree of doctor of medicine. The others, disciplined, effect with him only last week. Suspension The suspension of Mr. Harnon come as a surprise. Howard University said that the case had been closed with the suspension of five college students who attend Washington's birthday evening. It was thought that the two professional school students who were in the party would go home. The girls, who remained out all SCHOOL BOARD IS REVERSED BY COURT WASHINGTON, D. C.—The Board of Education must declare vacant the two positions in the Armstrong Technical High School, which are shearers and Miss Sunshine,ings, of the 833 Westminster street, northwest, and Miss Elizabeth Street, Burrell, of 1711 Eleventh street, northwest and appoint a shearer and Miss Jackson, of 1834 Ninth street, northwest, and Mrs Mary Craft Carroll, of 1860 Third street, northwest. A writ of mandatus commanding the Superintendent, Superintendent Frank W. Ballou and Assistant Superintendent Garnet C. Wilkinson to declare these positions vacant. A writ of mandatus was issued last week upon the order of Justie A. A. Hoehling. Her appointment will be effective as of February 14, 1924. Corporation Counsel Stephens says, will control the case of Mrs. Cottrell, which is identical except that Mrs. Cottrell was a public school teacher and was granted a degree of absence under university rule. In their suits against the Board of Education, Miss Jackson and Mrs. Cottrell contended that Miss Jennings and Miss Burrell were illiterate students. The teacher's martime art in the Armstrong Technical High School in that they lacked the necessary qualifications. Miss Jackson and Mrs. Cottrell contended that December 19, 1923, for appointment to teach domestic art in the senior high schools. They passed this examination and were certified as eligible for appointment on February 19, 1924, when they were being deprived of positions to which they were rightfully entitled to be appointed by Miss Jennings and Miss Burrell illegally filling them.

As the husband apparently accepted the child as his own the midwife could not do otherwise than to make the white woman the child. She objected, however, to the director of the city bureau, who in his report to the state registrar says: "I hesitated to change the birth certificate, but several of the officers decluded of unlawful cohabitation with a Negro and plead guilty——" Yet after giving many instances as these the writer continues to speak of the few women he would score one for Negro strain. If one "drop" of Negro blood could knock "ninety-nine of "white blood," would it not show the woman a former? And since when has strength become something to be ashamed of?

Thrown In Hogpen This case in another district is interesting: "Case No. 1.

The employer of the servant discovered the baby and rescued it. It was a girl.

Other Colored Children Other cases of white women presenting their husbands with mala-tio children are recorded. The husband of one of them "was sent from home of same time, and the woman bore a mala-tio child." Having given other similar cases of them, one from Stafford County (on file in the State records) in which both the wife and the daughter of a white man bore children for the same Negro, the writer adds: "The above cases present the most ghast- night, were suspended by Dean Lucy D.

Following the action of the dean of women, the two college boys who attended the party with the "co-eds" were suspended by Dean Lucy Mich, and Gilbert Lloyd Edwards, of New Haven, Conn. Faculty and students divided on the question of whether or not the two professional school students should be disciplined.

The fact that Freddie Frone had accompanied a young lady "Backbiters" was not a mistake, though she was a guest in Miner Hall from New York City, lessened his punishment. Suspension of the three girls and their male comrades followed the theater, then a dance given by a group of Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity men under the name of "Backbiters", and finally a cabaret. The girls were in the campus that expired but instead went to the city. According to one of the men suspended, they made every effort possible to have the girls thrown down on the floor, even to calling a taxicab. The men, he said, wanted to shake the girls because they had another engagement. The girls, however, refused to be taken. The male students, therefore, claim that their suspension is unfair because they are privileged to remain out all night if they care to and that by doing violate no college rule. The girls, dancing at the Backbusters was modern and that luior was in evidence. Announce Drill Dates WASHINGTON, D.

Wilson is in New York and South America, and will not return until late in March. ly evidence of the increasing frequency of the birth of mix-breed children to white women. * **Formerly, the race among the lowest grades of whites."** *Zeal Of No Avail* Of another district the writer distrusts, though no district in the state excels the Ninth in zeal for race integrity, the infrequency of the danger has resulted in a proportionate relaxation of watchfulness in guiding the Ninth whites from West Virginia and Kentucky, and Negro mixed Indians from Tennessee, "Redbones" and self-styled "Choceries" from North Carolina, "passing" A similar situation exists along practically the whole southern border of the state * * * * We have seen already how rapidly mix-breed descendants of mixed can multiply and occasionally and widely they may be distributed." All Mixed Up After giving other cases of Indians discovered to be of mixed white and Negro ancestry, the writer cites the case of a Negro in the City of Chicago and bought the home of a prominent family. Three grand daughters of this man have married white men. These white men are of prominent families and well contended children. The other two are men of political and financial prestige. They have children. These two men and their prominent children pressure pressure—successfully—their children into the most refined and cultured associations. They even had the assurance to send a lawyer to the city to influence to prevent the passage of the racial Integrity law. "The case offers additional evidence that social position and wealth give no assured protection against crime," she said. "It has happened to these families in Y County may happen to any family in Virginia." Summary In his summary and conclusion, Powell says in part: "The purpose of the foregoing statement is to inform the forces leading to amalgamation are not confined to isolated communities in the State but are common to all ten congressional districts and are located within the State but have seen that the spread of the evil has not been merely geographical, but social, until it has in a few instances, shown itself in every register, the social game of the State and the evidence of the disintegration of the psychological basis of the color line, namely, racial self-respect and decency, as seen in cases of white women marrying or illegitly interbreeding with colored men. Color Line "This is the most appalling and threatening feature of the situation, and the control must be taken. The color line in America has been more permanent than in any other instance in history. The reason for this has been the strong tendency to place the focus on the colored side of the barrier." "Until recently the overwhelming majority of mibrebs have been born to colored women, and have children tute, the color of the mother, these mibrebs even when possessing sufficient white blood for white classification, were regarded as colord. The situation changes, however, when the illegitimate mibrebs are born of white mothers * * * The evidence among white women * * * can be taken too seriously. * * * Equally revolting is the complaisance shown in some of the cases by the white husbands of such women. * * * Filth?

Can't Be Stopped Can't Be Stopped This type though it has pared its heels and pared its toes has been about as effective in preventing race relations as it has been after an express train or a prohibition agent who sets out to take the gin out of Virginia. Whether race mixing is good or bad and how it happens, one thing is sure that most of this type have succeeded in doing but one thing in fostering a tremendous amount of immorality. They are the hereditors of the slave-holding spirit, they are doing all they can to tighten the chains of economic and sexual slavery, their fellow-citizens other reasons than a difference of compulsion. Colonization Scheme Their so-called African colonization plan they well know, can serve only as a decoy for ignorant and bad leaders. Virginia took perhaps the lead in making it difficult for the Northern labor agent to recruit labor duration the great Negro migration. Now it is going to have a change of mind to the extent of furnishing millions of dollars to send them "back" to Africa. The White Woman The great objective of the men above mentioned has been to keep the white woman out of the white woman out of sight, signually according to historical records. At one time there was a law that the white woman who married a Negro became a husband, and that worked as but to encourage such marriages. (See documentary evidence in "Beginnings of Miscegenation, Journal of Negro History." Hundred of similar laws have been passed. "The law is but another dope hake." "Pass the bill," wailed Copeland to the Senate, or we're lost in the dope dend, "and I'll be a man again." Some day the South is going to see that the white woman is to encourage marriage among all its citizens. The present prospects are, however, that it will realize this too hate, like the man in the story, who has hated the woman, will have hated a large sum of money, and remembered it only after he had fallen overboard and was going down for the last time.

The Lexington Leader, a local white daily, states that the young white man was accused by two colored girls, one 17 and one 11 years old, of forcing them at the point of a revolver to accompany him into a laundry when he tore off their clothes and assaulted the younger girl. A doctor who examined the younger girl shortly after the attack, is reported to have found she bore traces of having been criminally convicted. Both girls identified the young white man as their attacker, after he had been found and arrested. The attack occurred six days prior to the hanging of the Negro whom it had been necessary to protect from a mob with 1,000 state troops. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has advised the Lexington Branch to hold all possible pressure upon the state authorities to enforce the law equally against the white criminal; colored people having stood for law enforcement against the colored murderer who was convicted in court and hanged. JUDGE WARNS HOTELS TORONTO, ONT., CAN. (ANP) — In giving decision against Dr. Benjamin Cohen, and Dr. G. Wendell Morrison, who brought suit for $50,000 against the Royal Connaught Hotel of Hamilton for discrimination. Justice Logic of the Ontario High Court said, "I am not satisfied with the evidence of either side, and while I feel that the plaintiffs were sensitive and looking for trouble, the managers attitude seemed to show a fear that it would be offensive to the other guest to be a Negro. I must warn you hotel management that-attitude must be got rid of in Canada; you must take all respectable travellers who offer themselves, regardless of color or creed. Dr. Morrison is the only colored practitioner in Toronto and as a guest, Dr. and Mrs. Cohen, also his city, was recently refused service in the Royal Connaught's Dinging Room.

MORE PERRY HOWARD (Continued from Page One) Mr. Howard also declared that in every instance he requires an affidavit from the person recommended that he oversee the work coordinated by anyone in connection with the appointment. This is done he said, for his protection against just such charges as were made by Mr. Busby. Sale Of Post Office Jobs Two investigations into the alleged sale of post offices in Mississippi have been made. The other was made by postal inspectors under the direction of the Postmaster General. The other was made by agents of the Department of Justice. Following the investigation by the Post Office Department, Mr. Howard received a letter from Postmaster General New, under date of January 31, 1925, in which he is advised that "There is no reason as revealed by the report in question why the publican National Committee should be adversely affected on the contrary I feel that I should say that the report that you credit." Mr. Busby in his remarks charged that Federal patronage in Mississippi was being sold. Besides Mr. Howard he mentioned the names of Dr. S. V. Redmond, O. McDougall and L. L. Mhon of Jackson, Mississippi. He also referred to Eugene P. Booze and his wife. Mrs. Mary C. Booze, of Mound Eayon, Mississippi. Mr. Booze, the Republican National Committeewoman, Mississippi. Mr. Busby referred to her as "Negro Woman, by the name of Booze." White Firenan Burned Rescuing Mother PITTSEURG. PA.—Capt.

The building, a two-story frame, was completely destroy- MORE LOVE LETTERS (Continued from Page One) Further examination of the letter was objected to by attorney Sherman on the ground that it was irrelevant to the case at hand. Attorney Davis insisted that it did have a bearing on the case and explained that the intended to show that the defendant did not desert what was without just cause but would relate a number of instances which led up to the alleged desertion. The letter, he declared, was written shortly after their marriage while Mr. Shipley was in California and his wife in Baltimore, and arranged for a meeting between Dean and his wife in a Philadelphia hotel. The letter was intercepted by Dean's wife and, a copy was sent to Mr. Shipley. *Was Double Affair* When asked if this was true Mrs. Shipley countered with the answer that it was merely a plot to frame her and that the third affair was going on between Dean's wife and Mr. Shipley. She had seen several letters in inedering terms by Mrs. Dean, she declared, before they left California and she and her husband agreed to burn their letters Mrs. Shipley stated, and the Dean contention was looked upon by her as a closed incident. Tried to Poison Members of the jury, shifted their position in seeming satisfaction with Mrs. Shipley's explanation of the intercepted letter. They were taken unaware by the next question fired at the press by Attorney Davis. Did you or did you not try to poison your husband while you were in California," he demanded. The question was objected to by the state on the ground that what took place in California would have no bearing on the charge of non support, in Maryland. Mr. Davis contended that the time spent by the couple in Maryland was so short that it could not give a true picture of the married life of the Shipleys, and therefore when transpired in California was necessary in proving that he was justified his wife, the poison episode which was denied by Mrs. Shipley was the outgrowth of an argument when she is alleged to have refused to wash the dishes and left the house during his absence. Mr. Shipley declares that when he returned to his meal prepare his meal prepared by people in the house not to eat it. The examination of the meat is said to have revealed that it was covered with bichloride of mercury. Both Spent Nights Out. Mrs. Shipley left the stand an hour's grilling. She was still smiling when she took over beside him. E. Everette Lane, who prompted the States' attack with intimate questions to ask Mr. Shipley when he took the stand. Testimony concerning the finding of women's wearing apparel in her husband's apartment was skirched out. She declared, "I prior to the announcement, Mr. Shipley told many nights out. On the stand Mr. Shipley also stated that his wife has yet to explain where she spent several nights. I. X. L.'s Meet The I X L's met at the home of Miss Odell P. Watkins on March 11, 1926.

EVELYN PREER WAS HERE LAST SUNDAY Actress And Husband Edward Thompson Score Hit In Comedy Sketch MISSISSIPPI GIRL BUT SEVEN YEARS ACTRESS Now Principal And Understu- Sensational "Lulu Belle" Sunday, March 14th, will long be remembered as a red letter day in Baltimore's theatrical history, for it was then that Evelyn Preer, one of the race's foremost dramatic stars who is an important member of the cast of "Jaulu Belle," New York's dramatic sensation and understudy to Leonore Ulric, white, who plays the title role, appeared at the Royal Theatre. Miss Preer was accompanied to Baltimore by her husband, Edward Thompson, also a member of the "Lulu Belle" company, and himself a dramatic actor of her pearling in closely sketch the couple didn't understand why they have singled out by David Bekeson to grace the cast of his latest success. The versatility of Miss Preer was further shown when she so eloled a number with a voice surprisingly sweet. At the close sketch the customers left no doubt had been charmingly entertained. Mississippi Girl Another asset possessed by Miss Preer is beauty of the positive kind, and not that supplied by the beauty specialists and cosmetic departments in the department and drug stores. Fair, with beautiful eyes, a form that would delight the eye of a physical culture expert and that clusive something called personality to complete her charm, a faithfulness of she who all our dramatic accusers desire to be the person who our dramatic accusers She was born in Vicksburg Mississippi, and began her stage career in Chicago seven years ago. If there is luck in the number seven, then this must be the reason of Miss Preer's elevation to such an important standing in a company controlled by the wizard of the theatre, David Belasco. Mr. Thompson made his stage debut in Philadelphia, and with his wife was long a featured member of a group of Peyers. Recently couple appeared in the leading colored theatres in a dramatic sketch. Praise David Belusco With a tone of voice that denoted affection both of the artists spoke in superlatives of Mr. Bolasco's treatment and interest. The experiment of a mixed cast has turned out magnificently, and it was inferred that the venture, but a forerunner of other presentations by Bolasco and other promoters, Lalin Ball", said Thompson, is no reflection on the racial group. Shorn of its Harlem locale she is just another aza, Camille, Sappho. The story closely parallels "A Fool NEWS FROM THE WE SHIP EVERYWHERE NEW RECORDS FROM A. B.

There Was," and is undoubtedly a faithful reproduction of an actual side of ours or any race. It is also said that the word "migger" was eliminated by the producer himself, he saying that while some of the audience might be broadminded enough to understand, that he did not desire to offend any of his potential patrons. Rehearsals and now the actual presentation are conducted by the genius of the mimic world in a kindly and instructive manner. Both artists feel that the financial results ebbing toward the colored group is another consideration not to be taken light- Dramatic Future Bright Mr. Belasco also paid a tribute to the colored members by saying that he had experienced no trouble with them, which statement. It is believed, cannot be denied, that he was associated with which he has been associated. Both Miss Preer, Mr. Thompson, and Mr. Rupert Marks, another eminent Latvietne Player, who was present at the confab, agreed that the radical step he took was not a major day for the dramatic members of the profession. Gilpin Scores With Emperor PHILADELPHIA—(ANP)—Charles Gilpin gave for himself new laurels by his appearance here as "The Emperor Jones," the play in which he has gained world-wide fame. The occasion was a presentation play by the Valley Company of the Hedgerow Players in a double bill, "The Emperor Jones," and Edna Street Vincent Milly's "Arla de Capo," the latter for the first time in this city. Gilpin's acting was the feature of the evening, and although the stage of the Play was out of our whole African jungle, it really suffaced on this occasion as "The Emperor Jones" went through his tansely dramatic, but failure attempt to flee from "a drum that would never stop hewing." His ending, was by silver bells clevered as in a vantage to which the actor gave in an vantage to which he had to "become alive" and respond in acknowledgement. Jasper Deting's acting as the White Trader was especially good. One critic writes, "On the whole, it may be referred to as a mighty successful evening, not only for Gilpin, for the Hedgerow Theater Players."

Brown and McGraw The last half at the Lafayette, Brown and McGraw, assisted by Alex Jackson's jazz band were billed. They formerly appeared at the Cotton Club. This modest couple deny that they are extraordinary hoofers, but from public favor and applause, and my personal opinion, it is the classiest, cleanest, fastest team the writer has witnessed. Then the band in an impersonation of a camp meeting, featured a trombonist and cornetist that told me talk Altho when the trombonist (instrumentally) introduced the elder (cornetist) who led them in prayer upon his meaning cornet the crowd was quick to catch on and the rafters shook with applause and shouts of "play that thing."

B. DeMille PRESENTS ROD ROCQUE NEW YORK—With sporadic appearances in revivals of "The Emperor Jones" at the Provincetown Playhouse and the Hedgow Theatre, Philadelphia, and in a vaudeville sketch concluding most recently of Charles Gilpin's reality, announcement of the actor's engagement as "Uncle Tom" in a revival of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" by the Universal Film Company is welcome news to Mr. Gilpin's friends and admirers. Failure to find a suitable vehicle was the cause of the star's nonappearance ahead of a company for the last few seasons. That he is recognized as still able to deliver is proba- tionally the first. The new role will mark the first that a colored thespian has been entrusted with such an important part on the silent sheet with a white company. Noble Johnson, it is true, has always appeared for Universal, but in no role of the proportions of Gilpin's announced elevation. Many of the scenes are now being "shot" in Ticconeroga, New York.

Miss Gee recently appeared with "The Chocolate Dandies," an American musical comedy that has played with much success in Berlin and Vienna. Recently the artist suffered a severe attack of illness, on her recovery she began her association with the So...them trio John Payne and Susan and David, originally members of the celebrated Judie Four who came over here with the Southern Syncopated Orchestra under the direction of Will Marion Cook.

THEATRICAL SECTION Where the Professionals Play—Routings CAREY Daniel Ridout, Director Of Music At Princess Anne Thanks White Writers NORTHERN COLORED PEOPLE WERE HOSTILE Schools And Eminent Musicians Did Much For Music Daniel Lyman Ridout, director of music at Princess Anne (Md.) Academy, contributed a splendid anatole on folk songs in the "Flat Iron News", a weekly publication of Salisbury, in the issue of March 6th. After pointing out that the common people, who are in the community, are responsible for the folk songs of any nation, and thus these songs are the fundamental music, the author briefly traces the agencies responsible for the recent re-creation of Gero music. Recalling the statement of Anton Dvorak, the great Bohemian composer of the New World Symphony, that the only original music was the music of the Negro slaves, the writer of *A* few years ago, even in the writer's knowledge, the average Negro above the Mason and Dixon line did not like Negro spirituals. They seemed to suggest slaves' memories of slavery. But the writer that we knew too little about them. Fortunately, we have learned to look deeper into that meaning, and as a result everybody wants to learn the actual spirituals. They have slowly but surely come into their own. Credit Due Writers "This is indeed a happy situation, and it is our aim here to give honor or where it is due. This has been realized through training, sacrifice of effort, the effort of somebody, and we should know whom. In the first place, we must give credit and thanks to white friends, the Negroes capable of writing down these melodies (for we all know they were simply "made up" and not written down by their authorities), and them and who were the first to appreciate their value. But the greatest honor is due the Negro schools and the Negro musicians to the Negro melodies before the public through quartets, jubilee singers and glee clubs, and the latter who have given them to artistic touch in solo and instrumental arrangements. School Exponents The Fisk Jubilee Singers were the first organization to do serious work in the way of presenting these songs in the northern cities and in Europe, and through their efforts Jubilee Hall at Fisk University, was built, and is a monument to this heroic work. Hampton and Tuskegee Institute Quartet, the Claflin University Quartet and many other school quartets which have alive the litter which had been kindled by the pioneer Fisk singers. Other Musicians Ald In closing the writer sums up the work of many colored musicians and contributions to the furious songs. Mention of Harry T. Burleigh is followed by the names of the musicians: John White, Carl Dillon and Roland Hayes as among those who did much to advance the racial music. Mr. D. D.

Pictures with all white casts are quite all right as far as they go, with them we have no general quarrel, but the natural tendency to exalt all of the Nordic virtues causes minds in the making, and even those of many adults to subconsciously grow to think that ALL WHITE IS ALL RIGHT. The movies, the fourth largest industry in the world, is a powerful agent for the spread of propagandist nonsense that is ultimately mischievous and seriously so. Micheaux the colored producer is struggling to create and exhibit pictures of colored folk, but he cannot succeed unless the customers aid him materially by asking for his product and patronizing the theatres where they are shown. A two-fold object is accomplished in following this colored producer's output, the second is that we are accomplished in displaying the public ARE THE BOXES of the situation, the managers of Baltimore theaters know this, and are anxious to please. BUT THEY CANNOT take a look in your face, AND GUESS they are a new JIM CROW covee of excluding white pictures from colored houses that is sheer poppycock and is not feasible, but for the love of the KIDS show them on the screen that Crispus attracts.

International News Reel THEATRICAL REVIEWS THEATRICAL REVIEWS REGENT "Little Joe" Bright and his gang in a miniature dressed dress up like all out doors are here again this week. The piece is fushioned along with the animated chorus of a plot upon which to handle the different specialties. Honors are evenly divided among all of the principals and the animated chorus of another company, stood out like a bootleggers bank roll. De Ree and La Rue white dancers, presented an act that was pleasingly diverting. "Dink" Stewart, Bright, Mae Wilson, and Joe La Rose, the latter two and a part of the choristers being borrowed from Mae Wilson's Brother, "a Bright favorite," was introduced with the choristers dilled in dandy clothes and attractively staged. Bright sang the verses of a Spanish dancing girl, Spanish dancing girls. Harris's dancing caught on as usual. The proceedings were frequently interrupted by applause that bespoke the best of Bright entertainments, but giving no cause for censure. The buyers seemed to like it, so that that. "Ghony Follies" Stayed on an Sunday night for a midnight show here. Many nocturnal buyers saw both acts of the musical that the running time allowed duet partners to ventilate of those attending was ficturing. On Monday the Twelve Musical Spillers will head a vandeville performance in bursue and musical comedies throughout America and Canada. "The Eagle," featuring Rudolph Valentino and Charley Chaney, is early showing here. One of the most pleasing innovations here are the use of organ music and director of the orchestra. The numbers are illustrated with slides, once in vogue in every picture house in the city and now returning to popular favor. Three acts, two singles and a mixed double essay the entertainment here for this week. None of the turns had struck, but the audience, which was collected in the customers evident lack of enthusiasm. A condition on usual at this house, for the patrons are not as difficult to please as in other sets, is the approval when pleased. All of the turns were conscientious, however, and did their best to deliver. Pearl Lee, opened with songs, a dawnish seemed to tickle the chairholders, "Memphis," a male single followed, Loe and Thomas closed. The presence of Pearl Lee and Mary Lizzie Thomas on the same bill seemed to be "of Old Home Week." This years have not dimmed the theatrical highways for many years. When I wore knickers of the same pair, peering, You can't act an actress down. Two com- LAFAYETTE THEATRE STAR Vaudeville edies and a news reel that opened the show were adjudged pleasing by the patrons. The attendance was on Monday night Marle Hicks and Janetelle Ridley were added to the former joining Lewis Memphis and the latter Pearl Lee. The ad made an appreciable difference. ROYAL Butterbeans And Susie's Revue The famous Butterbeans and Susie with their big time review is billing the kind of attraction that the celebrated pair head here this week. Six acts exclusive of that of the headliners, have been chosen good friends and good good friends. The appeal to the audience was samply demonstrated at the nightcap performance on Monday evening. Rogers, acrobatic dancers extraordinary, were spotted number one, and the customers left no doubt of the popularity of the pair. Rogers was formerly with Susie, and now lives here at various times with other partners. The latest addition to the firm lives up to the standard of all others previously seen. An unique and welcome relief on anyone's Lee and Wright spotted second, sang and "wise cracked" their way to instant popularity. Russell Lee, after doctoral training, rid his pips of a cold that threatened to interfere with his appearance showed no trace of it in his singing. Davenport, who was quite a same delightful quality, Miss Wright, looked good at a distance, and doubtlessly a closeup reveals the same. Davenport, who was in a position held up the show from their opening, Davenport is master of a piano, and a great showman, idolizes the singer, whose voice, and arrayed in three bewilderingly pretty frocks, the Royal belonged to Davenport and clamored throughout the evening. Even the singer, with a darker skin, as usual sorry to say, getting the worst of it, failed to show them up, once they were started up, and the singer, agitized as America's greatest contortionists, bent and twisted himself in more knots than Smith Brothers have coughed up, and the men he always got out, and was acclaimed a winner on twists. The Aublanche Sisters were far up in the forefront of point gainers. Kity is another of whom testified their affection for the team. The nearest Charleston done here this season was done at the finish. Ann White, a vocalist, proved that size was no impediment to getting hers from the audience—which she did. Butterbeans and Susie, winners of many an amusements, are the style of these artists is inimitable, hence there is only one Butterbeans and Susie despite the many would be imitators. It would be as easy as it was to disappear as to describe this pair of undoubted artists. Try your hand at it! they'll be here all the rest of the week. It is easy to understand why Butterbeans have smashed many records. SOCIETY Given A Surprise Miss. Lillian E. Bannister of Washington, was tendered a surprise by Walter M. Mullberry of 1814 W.

Basketball, Baseball And Gridiron Sports SPORT OF ALL SORTS Comments From Pens Of Leading Sportsmen ATHENIANS SUFFER Bishop's Goals Give O.K.s 21-20 SECOND HOME DEFEAT Victory Over St. Barnabas Vandals Of Atlantic City Set Locals On Rear End Of 22 To 19 Score Friday TIMERS FAILED TO AGREE WITH ORDINARY WATCH rises As To Minutes Played Again a dollar watch almost caused the murring of a basketball game when the Baltimore Athletians dropped a 22 to 19 game to the Yankees of the Old City Friday night before the floor of the New Albert before an estimated crowd of 900 fans. An ordinary watch was used to keep time and after the game had progressed the supposed 20 minutes left the last half the visiting team the whistle. The timer claimed seconds had to be played. Referee Gibson gave the locals the benefit of the doubt and kept time himself the remaining 20 seconds. However, this fraction of a minute did not profit the Greeks, as the score remained the same. It was pushed on the floor as they thought the game was over. It took several minutes to clear the court before the game could be resumed. Baskerville a Vandal Fandom was surprised to see "Billy" Baskerville, former Athenian forward, in the uniform of a Vandal. Baskerville did not return to Baltimore with the Greeks when they played the Bucaneers there recently. "Billy" got in action against his former man in the first half, hugged a goal which went a long way to helping his new found friends. He received a big hand from the gallery as "Billy" is a great favorite with Baltimore court followers. The first half was a distress affair with both teams missing numerous setups. "Herl" Keller, the long field goal in this game for the trees, with free throws by Brown and Keller, sat at the half way mark was checked at six all. Second Half The start of the second half was delayed 10 minutes to fix the visitors' goal which has seen its best days of useful service. With the use of string, wire and whatnots, the basket was rehabilitated to withstand 30 minutes more active duty. Butler drew a foul, Albey made the loss, giving the Vandals a one-point lead. The Sensiders managed to keep at least one out of the mid of the scoring period until the end when the scoring period was 13-12 for the Vandals. Tolls caged a difficult one from the floor giving the location a 14-13 lend. Score Tied Albey offset this with a long cagger from the count, putting his mates in the lead. Howard made it 17-14, followed by one charity toss by Keller, bringing the score to 17-15. Poles added one from the foul line, narrowing the margin to 17-16. Brooks drew a foul and Butter tied up the score at 17 all. A free throw by Butter and another by "Scrappy" Brown from the 15-foot line was the sum total of the Greeks score for the rest of the night. Albey brought the house down when he floated the sphere from the middle of the floor to sink squarely then the nets. Two free tosses by Howard and one by Brooks gave the Vandals a three point lead as the whistle blew. Neither team scored in the 20 seconds that the referee held the wicket. Both times claimed the wicket. Both might have been beating as it is impossible to keep basketball time with an ordi- Maur Fouls Missed The Athletians missed 80 per cent of their chances from the foul zone, carrying 9 out of 18. The Vandals only made six out of 10. A total of 29 personal fouls were called, 17 on the Athletians and 12 on the Vandals. Doles was on the foul zone for the Game with three goals and one foul shot for seven points. Howard, of the Vandals, with four goals and three fouls grabbed off the scoring honors with a total of 11. Athohe he did not make a goal. "Scrampy" Brown came second in the Game with four fouls, all made from fouls. "Chippy" Taylor stole some of Polets' spotlight when he leaped a double-decker with an overhand flip, that caused the gallery to applaud. Veney and Wheatley played a clever guard game while Brooks, Alhoy and Brown were exceptionally good for the Van. TANDALES AFTENAMS A F G T Howard.ft Brown.ft Alboy.ft Brooks.ft Bhorec.ft Photo.

Spedden this week. signed it league Beckwith player, he has violated an agreement with league owners" said Charlie Spedden this week. Of the contract may mean the breaking out of a war between clubs in the league and independent owners. It is well known that Dosey has been angled for Beckwith for sometime, although he team list year to play with the Sox. Will Rald Grays Spedden intimated that if the Pittsburgh club had signed Beckwith it will mean a wholesale raid on the Grays by Eastern and Western league owners. The league terribly tilt to have three owners than independent owners. Most players on independent teams are men disgruntled or have seen their hest days in organized baseball. The Eastern and Western leagues are two of the best developed baseball leagues of players far more inducements than an independent club possibly could. Recently at a meeting in Philadelphia an agreement was made between league and independent owners to form a new league of players belonging to the other. By Posey signing Beckwith, it will mean that organized baseball will retaliate by raiding his club. Evidently Posey thinks he is in a position to buck the league, he will find an organization, is all more powerful than an individual. Born Of Contention Beckwith has been a bone of con- tention ever since he has been in the East. He quit Pittsburgh and went to Chicago. When it was learned that he can free several clubs, he was forced for his services. Solden of the Sox won out. Soon after his entrance in Baltimore, strife broke out in the ranks of the Sox. Players openly refused to co-operate with him. Later he was made captain and then vice captain. The club went from bad to worse until he resigned and Pete Hill assumed the management of the club. As a player, Beckwith is extremely temperamental and it is doubtful if he will remain on the brays a com- munity. He is the king of heavy hitters and leads the country in home run clouts for 1924-25.

At the intermission period the "Y" Five were on the front end of a 26 to 5 score. Fletcher, former Morgan College student and Storer College football star, did the pivoting for the visiting quint. His individual score of one high score and three four shots was the highest turned in for his mates. Sharks drew the first blood at the top off with a clevely executed shot from under the basket. From then on it was easy as pie for the "Y" driblers. Presenting a classy passing game with Hays and Wake bearing the brunt of the attack, the "Y" tossers had the boys from the State capital at their mercy. Time and again Hays scooted under the visitors' goal to toss the leather thru the nets. Field goals and one of his work. Wake with four goals and one charity throw, stalked off with second honors. "Pats" Matthews, known as the fastest big man in Baltimore, with McBeth, made an ideal guard combination. Little and Hebron worked hard for the Peerless aggregation, but found the going too rough to overcome the big lead maintained by the Monumentals. PEERLESS 1 "F" FIVE G. F. P. G. F. P.

Ben Taylor, manager of the Baltimore Black Sox, does not approve of league teams playing independent games during the season.

Simms, manager and coach of the Germantown "Y" girls basketball team, says the Baltimore Orioles did not win a 12-11 game from the Germantown girls on Friday, March 5, but the Baltimore Birds lost by a 11 to 10 score. The last goal made by Miss Spriggs did not count as the Orioles had six players on the floor at the time the basket was made says coach Simms, and the Referee did not hear the tool of the whistle. Mr. Simms said 12 fouls were on the Orioles and 9 on the "Y" team (assisted by 11 and seven reported). The last paragraph in Mr. Simms letter states that the Orioles made the Germantown girls play with four players in a game in Baltimore recently. The writer attended the game in question and is familiar with the circumstances surrounding the particular incident. OBJOLES OUTPLAYED other untrue statement is:— Seventeen four Orioles, seven against the "Y." But should the Orioles be nine (9) against the "Y" so state that the Orioles were outplayed in the "Y" five man defense."

Though the Orioles did make us play four and on four girls in the game when one player was be the "Y" management and players did not cry, od sports played on." "Another untrue statement is:— Seventeen fouls called a gainst the Orioles, seven against the "Y." But should read twelve (12) against the Orioles, and nine (9) against the "Y." "I'll also state that the Orioles were outplayed at their own game, namely the "Eve man defense." And I'm very sorry to learn that they are such poor sports, as to send untrue statements to the press." To show the good sportsmanship of the management and players of the Germantown "Y" team, I personally gave Miss Bailey, manager of the Orioles, a book f rules played by us in Philadelphia, so her team could be acquainted with them before coming to Philadelphia for their return game. We play four and one half minutes with four girls in the game when one player was knocked out in Baltimore the "Y" management and players did not cry, "raw deal," but like good sports played on."

We do not hesitate to sanction fight between white and colored men, and the talk of trouble I think, is exaggerated.

During the argument that ensued, the woman complained that she stumbled after a razor when he rushed to the buffet and drew out a gun with which he fired several times. He statement mates no mention of the razor episode but states that she talked when he shot her. The latter version is believed by the police because both shots took a downward course that could only have been by a person standing the victim. Glycn Ten Years Following the shooting Jones walked to the Western Police Station and notified the authorities of the shooting and gave himself up. We were told that murder was rendered by the jury Thursday morning and a ten year sentence in the Maryland Penitentiary was imposed by Judge Eugene O'Dunne in the day.

BRIGGS Lovett Fort-Whiteman, labor leader and head of the American Negro Labor Congress who lectured here last week is a former student of A former associate who attended the meeting at the Y. M. C. A. Thursday night of last week, describes the recognition as follows: "The thrill of the evening came when the chairman announced Lovett Fort-Whitman. When he met the student, he brought to his ear earlier in the evening, the reporter had thought that he recognized the shoulder stoop and peculiar step of former acquaintance when he spoke face to face with the speaker face to the audience. He was an acquaintance who ten years ago had been, or was, a student at Morgan College. During that period he had exhibited original thought, radical tendencies and an attitude toward the school. He was a student of the average Morgan student. These characteristics in themselves were not necessarily unlesirable. "There have been strange metamorphoses in life, but when a young man who within ten years develops from a school boy, slovenly and inexperienced, to a laborer as to be willing to exist wretchedly on an occasional lean sandwich, donated by some kind of friend, from this to the alleged position of a world renowned labor leader, then indeed has a strange thing happened: the speaker boasted that workers in 'Russ-yah' send workers That Chteitenham is worse than a penitentiary in that relatives are not permitted to see boys sent there, is the complaint of Mrs. Edith James 804 South 48th street, Philadelphia, in a letter to the AFRO-AMERICAN this week. Mrs. James' brother, Paul A. Cook, sent to Chteitenham at his mottos, doesnt know that his father, is dead because authorities there have refused to let his sister see him or write to him. The whereabouts of young Cook were discovered through the AFRO-AMERICAN. Mrs. James found out that he was put out to work in October 1917 and will become of age in October 1924. In a letter to the AFRO-AMERICAN this week she says that the action of the authorities in keeping her from seeing or communicating with her brother is outrageous and asks the authorities are proceeding. In her letter is enclosed also a communication from W. H. Janney, of the University of Chicago, station at Cheltenham, poorly typed on the official stationery and signed also on the typewriter in which he has been hired out on his own request. "We have found that it is bad for boys so placed out to come in contact with their people because they are not good at money which they: do not need, correspond with them, and in general get the boys, disaffected with their surroundings no matter how much money they have in every case, that the boys run away causing much trouble and expense to recapture them, and worse than all, forget all the money that they have been allocated in our hands for their benefit. "In the case of Paul Cook we have had considerable trouble along this line. Not that he has run away, but that he has to do so, and I had to send our agent to see him and get him straightened out. This was, I think, caused by some visits to him by a friend, and we knew nothing, but it is evident that there has been some influence brought to bear on the boy to make him believe that he could do much more, and we were away from his present home. "Therefore we have declined to tell when we are located, or when we are always better known, not to be visited by their people while they are at service, as you may be, or not to be their children, to become of age, all the information that we have as to their relatives is given them, their money is given them, their property, and they are sent to their people."

As Morgan College "in secrecy" had no unusual inflection of voice or accent in Whiteman's speech. But now Mr. Lovett Fort-Whitman, who had been known as plain Whiteman such an exaggerated accent as the following: Octobah—articles, for articles: Cawgress—peepul—nashum—bankahs—youngans—philosophy. He rambled here and there, talking about "class struggle," "this highly complex capitalistic society," "the evils of the master class," "present day economic imperialism."

CITY SUFFERS FROM BRIGHT'S DISEASE Kidney Troubles Take Toll Twice As Large From Colored As Whites LOCAL RATE USUALLY HIGH IN BALTIMORE U. S. Rate Per Hundred Thousand Colored Is 114, Baltimore Rate 215 R. MAURICE MOSS, Secretary Baltimore Urban League That disease of the kidneys is taking almost as large a toll among Negroes as diseases of the lungs and heart is one of / the revelations made by a study of the local Health Department's annual reports for the past 23 years. In 1924 there were 2648 colored Baltimoreans w/o departed for the Great Beyond. Of these 310 left via pulmonary tuberculosis, 256 by heart disease and 244 by chronic Brights' disease. This gave to Baltimore a death rate from this disease for Negroes in African Brights' disease in its colored population of 209.9 per hundred thousand. In 1925 this rate was even higher, being approximately 215. The general death rate from this disease for Negroes in African Brights' disease in the U.S. was in 1922 (the last available figure) 114.7. The rate for whites in the U.S. in 1922 was 85.5 while in Baltimore the rate in 1924 was 123.1. Thus among both races this disease is more deadly than is the case in general locally than is the case in general throughout the country. Colored Higher On Chart The accompanying chart will serve to show how consistently higher than the white death rate for this disease, the white death rate tended to rise from the first of the century to 1918 it has fallen since then until at the present time it is about half the rate of the century. On the other hand, the line for colored death rates, while showing considerable variation from year to year, has risen in the last ten years nearly fifty-five points. Beer And Alcohol Chronic Bright's disease, or chronic nephritis, in many cases "follows acute nephritis of cold, scarlet fever or pregnancy. More frequently than is usually stated, the disease occurs independently of any acute attack," according to Oster's "Practice of Medicine." Oster goes on to say, "that beer and alcohol are believers to lead to this form of." In syphilis and tuberculosis certain forms of Bright's disease are not uncommon. "Males are rather more subject to the affection than females. It is met with most commonly in young adults and children as a consequence of acute Bright's disease, following scarlet fever." Cold On Kidneys The acute phase of the disease is due to the action of cold or toxic agents upon the excretion of causes of acute nephritis. (1) exposure to cold and wet is one of the most common causes. It is particularly exacerbated by excessive drinking bout. (2) the poisons of specific fevers, particularly scarlet fever, and less commonly typhoid fever, measles, diphtheria, smallpox and axelovibrio. It may also be associated with syphilis and acute tuberculosis and even acute tonsillitis. (3) toxic agents, such as acetaminophen, acid, may cause an acute congestion which sometimes terminates in nephritis, but alcohol probably never excites acute nephritis. (4) connection here is not definitely established. Operations (5) It may also occur in connection with extensive lesions of the skin, in as burns or in chronic skin infections, and may follow operations on the kidney. Inasmuch as the chronic form of the disease frequently follows the acute form, it is important to identify it. If the milder form has been previously contracted, Chronis Bright's disease, according to Ossler, is an incurable affection and it depends on the type of the disease it depends are quite as much beyond the reach of medicines as wrinkled skin or gray hair. It depends on two forms of the disease are much the same. Sweating plays an important part in the treatment since it is desirable to relieve the kidneys in so far as possible by ridding the body of its waste. Diet The diet should consist of milk or buter milk, gruels made of arrow or oatmeal, barley water, and if necessary, broth. An adolescence is established, bread and butter, lettuce, grapes, oranges and other fruits may be given. The return to a meat diet is to be gradual. No remedies, so far, are available directly which changes which are going on in the kidneys. We can only hope to give the secretory function of the kidney rests by utilizing the skin and mucous membranes of the processes may be sufficient to affect a cure. Prevention But the old axiom that "an ounce or prevention heats a pound of cure" holds good here also and a regular, yearly trip to a competitor's hospital will excite examination by him, is the best means of insurance against this disease, as well as others. It seems strange that the owners of a regulator will have the greased, regularly, and over hauled periodically, to prevent trouble yet will not take the same precautions with their own bodies.

Thoughts Of The Founder Thoughts Of The Founder "The Negro journal has made a place for itself in the hearts and homes of the people; and judging from the very excellent standards set by some of them, there is a splendid prospect that in the near future the daily journal will be as welcome and as well parentized, if not better, than the present weekly." Poison The Senate Interstate Commerce Commission Committee Tuesday ordered favorable report on the Pepper bill safeguarding the distribution of dangerous corrosive acids. Under the Pepper bill, manufacturers are required to brand containers with "conspicuous, easily legible label or sticker," giving common name of the substance the name and place of business of the manufacturer business of the potion in large bottles of contrasting colors and directions for treatment in case of accidental personal injury. While the Senate is on this subject, we recommend that druggists be required to put to all poisons in bottles wrapped with a fine grade of herbal wire, for the housekeeping of the housekeeping to insist on taking and storing bottles from them on closes at night without poking a light. Mr Pierre S. Dupont, the millionaire explosive manufacturer and philanthropist who is putting the funds for a new colored school in the place of every one of his abolitionaries in the fate of Negro education in the United States depends upon the success or failure of his experiment in educating a whole state. Mr Dupont's statement sent the APLO-AMERICAN has week made two other contributions, equally He said for example the new school built in Wilmington from Dupont funds will be the first money expended for colored schools in the city. Secondly, he said his committee realized that it would be impossible to obtain public funds for colored schools with private money had been on white schools; We don't very much if progress in Delaware education will improve simply by the erection of buildings with this must go a long way, as a result of teachers and adequate teachers' salaries. Not the least item in educational programs that graduates of schools must be given an opportunity to use their knowledge in life. There is no incentive for education in a state where the school house doors are open and the doors in the factory are closed. That Wilmington is spending its first money on Negro schools is indicative of a hostile attitude on the part of white people towards Negro education which usually found south of the Mason and Dixon line. It looks like Mr. Dupont's program of Negro education is going to be a more educational in the education ofDelta are white folk. Brutes They had a little hanging down in Lexington. Ky. last week. Thanks to a fearless and brilliant correspondent, the APRO carried last week the only inside and confidential story of the Edward Harris execution. He was a trial of a man who killed a white mand and his two children, a certain and nondeceitful crime. He admitted it. No proof was necessary except his confession of a covoner and undertaker. He was also charged with raping the wife. Harris denied this, yet in the trial which cost him $30,000 and brought out 10 troops, tanks and guns. Guns. Harris was murdered and convicted, not of the murder he confessed but of the rape he denied. Harris told the APRO in his confidential story of the murder with his friend's partner in bootlegging who owed him money; of his shooting first: of how Harris continued to shoot in the house, not knowing his first bullet killed the father and his second and third the Here was an ignorant black man who in a fight with an ignorant white man, accidentally two children. So they trued the brute in seven minutes instead of lynching him and convicted him of something else they never knew. To top it off 1,000 brutes robbed of a, lynching spectacle, witnessed the hanging. Some of them enjoyed (?) the enjoyment (?) A nice time, was by all. and firemen, county and State Board of Education. for school teachers without regard State institutions where inmates are among all groups of colored college for colored people supported by farmers and the State and Federal farm "Graft" Most people will agree with Miss Lucy Showe, dean of women at Howard A. M. Church recently saying, "Women are coming into public life in larger numbers than ever before. Their contribution ought to be high, public service and freedom from Suffolk. Men who have dominated public life in this country for generations have taut: it us the meaning of each political term as boss' run a government or an organization in order to keep themselves and their friends on the public payroll: to divert a percentage of public pockets and in general to pursue a policy of the "public be damned." We refer to a woman as the "better half" of munkin, and we ex-change her to choose a better part. It is for this reason the sensational charges against Mrs Laura J. Wheatley, president of the Parent Teachers' Federation in the public schools created such a pro-terrorism group that we knew that here was the largest organization of its kind devoted to public service in the city. It claimed and probably has 10,000 enrolled members. In addition it is controllable. Mrs. Wheatley was charged with attempting to commercialize a recent art exhibit suggested by the federation of saying she attempted to secure a commission from one of the exhibitors, a Miss Augusta Savage. Men would have probably called it after Mrs. Wheatley's letter to Miss Savage asking for 20 per cent commission is not a myth or a joke. It exists in her personal life and is obviously printed subsidiary. The letter was printed in the AFRO-AMERICAN. Mrs. Wheatley has never denied she wrote it. She was born in January. The executive committee took action. It met twice and voted by overwhelming majority to recommend to the federation Mrs. Wheatley to be president and heated debates to do it, but it was done. Then some 30 delegates from various schools, mostly women, met at the federation and voted 25 to 5 to exonerate her. She's still president, despite a minority appeal to Dr. David Weglen, superintendent and to Mr. Weglen, supervisor. If the federation's action is to be regarded as typical of women's part in the public life, Dean Slowe is all wrong. Women will turn out no different from men except in their use of English language, and commission are not much different from whitewash and graft. The American League of Independent Voters asked eleven governors of Southern states three questions recently. The questions were: 1. Is there any law in your state which operates or intends to violate the 14th or 15th amendment? 2. Is there any discrimination in the constitution or laws of your state against Negroes as to suffrage on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude? 3. Are the non-voting Negroes of your state disfranchised by law on self-disfranchisement by failure to comply with the laws of your state? All eleven governors answered the first two questions "no" and the third "yes". They said that the colored men and women disfranchised themselves or are intimidated by lawless whites. How true is all this. It isn't true at all. Ma Ferguson of Texas ought to know that at this very moment the U.S. Supreme Court has upon its docket an appeal of colored Tex as voters who by law are prevented from participating in the Texas Governor Parker, of Louisiana knows of the arrest of colored women in his state recently who attempted to register. Pellis of Negroes distancing themselves Governor M. E. Trapp of Oklahoma, did not answer these questions. He knows that 500 colored people thus petitioned county authorities to register them; that only 39 were registered; that the registrar was found guilty of contempt of court, lightly punished and freed; that the case is now in the U. S. Cases of In Georgia, Negroes may not vote except in the larger cities. The same is true even of the enlightened Carolinans. In all of these cases, it is the state politicians, and the party officials who legally illegally bar Negroes from the polls. In this sense they institute a lawless element, that white Southern lawless on the subject of Negro voting. Miners Sixty-eight coal miners were entombed in a shaft at Shawnee, Virginia. Thirty-nine men rescued alive. Twelve of the rescued men and four of the dead are colored and four of the that are colored (those yet in the mines are barely a month ago a similar disaster in Oklahoma here wiped out). the colored it. It takes an intense disaster to make it work to what extent the former black cotton-field, hnd is going into, the mining industry.

A Bait of the Right Kind for Negro Votes Ought to Catch Plenty of Them, Says Dr. Pickens To the Elitor Whenever one white politician does or offers to do something which colorizes the opposing white politicians always say that this one is offering "a bait for Negro votes." "A bait for Negro votes" is more quibble. The only answer is that a good politician can catch plenty of them. If somebody offers in exchange for Negro votes that he will even so much as try to pass a law to keep mobs from burning Negroes alive, what more reason is there for the Negro to vote? A "harf" on beans will not be a good substitute to offer the Negro; whether beans be imported free or under tax, will do the Negro no good. If he is burned up before he gets to If Congressman Dyer of Missouri, and Senator McKinley of Illinois, are fighting for an anti-lynching vote, that is still the best reason that can be found anywhere in interstellar space why they should get the vote of every Negro in their districts. If I really wise man ever said that the Negro voter should not have "his价钱"; but he must make his price worthy of his support, including a bottle of rum, or a job, or any personal gift,—but manhood rights, equal citizenship, full rights for his whole race and other races, or which he should gladly "sell out"—"When they are angling for Negro votes, let them learn to cover their books with the right soupes against segregation, equal suffrage demands, protests against Jim crow schools; if they bring plenty of this class of bait, it won do no harm; if they bring anything else, they will get few bites in the ponds of the Black Bass.

ANTI-LYNCH BILL WORLD COURT COP DAY BY DAY WITH WILLIAM N. JONES Laws of nature have the same effect on human beings the world over. Take the case of the mountaineers down in Tennessee, who cultivated abundant vegetation made inactive and unprogressive the natives of Africa, the institution of slavery which made it possible for southern whites to roll not now but a worse tilt than now of them. No white man can look upon the thing which a certain environment has made of some mountaineers in Tennessee or south than it did to another, to apathetic with what environment has done to some other human beings in various parts of the world. Slavery did more to the brains of the south than it did to their brawn. But it dwarfed both to a fearful degree among the hill folk. In an unusually striking story, in an unusually T. S. Stribling, himself a Tennessee, sums up the case admirably. He gives as the background of reason for the awnish state into which these once proud nudies have degenerated, the in With black men working for them while they loafed their muscular fibres as well as their brains atropurpurea because they order to contort their consciences into believing human slavery was right, they had to believe many lies and deny the doctrines of human nature. EVEN GOD BECAME A DISTORTED BEING* TO THEM AS EVIDENCED BY THE REACTION AGAINST THE GOD, THEY DARE NOT WELCOME TRUTH. Big Black Ants; Little Red Ants The other phase of the question is illustrated well by the story of the little red ants and the big black ants. They a generation of big black ants raid a little red ants' nest and carry off the eggs they later hatch them and make them do the work. Generation after generation, the black ants have to struggle smaller and generation after generation the little red ants having to struggle, become larger. Then comes the time when the little red ants and black ants dwarf. THIS PRINCIPLE OF NATURE HAS MADE THE MOUNTAINER OF TENNESSEE AND NORTH CALIFORNIA.

The dynamics of public opinion is capable of the most remarkable manipulation. The whiskey ring has been able to take a foolish law like the Volstead act, and to wine out an evil made nine out of every ten people believe that it would be best to start back into the derection of the open saloon; the pendulum swinging back to a normal state it is taking a sweep back towards all the evils of the most dangerous menace this or any country ever sees. If the politicians, with their publicity experts, can put it over, they will have this country voting to be back into the saloon; there are few homes in this country, including even many of the pillars of society, that do not have light wines, there is the constant cry for light wines and beer. In all this hubbub, we are likely to be swept away with the froth and foam, and forget that beneath it all is the real substance, THE REAL RUM Whiskey as a beverage is a menceance. It is the kind of entertaining and debaucheur. There is no such thing as good whiskey. It is all bad. It is all bad. When we hear talk of present day poison rum.

Heard and Seen In Baltimore BY RALPH MATTHEWS Aunt Dilsey, the motherly old lady who answers the heart problems for young Miss Martha, has been called to report Friday, and the Editor asked us to substitute and answer a pile of letters that came in. Of course the Ross doesn't know it, but Aunt Dilsey got the rheumatism from doing the Charleston with Old Timer at Amos Hokum's party in the Club Arabia. Here is a letter from a heart-sick young man, it reads:—Dear Editor: I am in love with a beautiful young girl. She has just inherited $10,000, and I am afraid if I propose to her she will think I want her just for the money. Shall I give her the way to pay? Answer-By all means NO. Send me her address at once. Dear Editor-I am a poor, but honest young man. I am employed as a waiter at present. Do you think I have a chance to get ahead?—J. Hashlinger. Answer-Not if you stay honest. Henry Boozehound: Yes Henry, it is dangerous to buy liquor from every one you meet on the street. It is good to find out if he is a prohibition agent or not. They always handle good stuff. Miss Etta Lett-If the spoon goes in your eye every time you drink coffee I would advise you to drink tea in the future. Dear Editor-I have decided to leave my husband. He is a good provider, doesn't go around with his wife. Am I doing right? He has one fault however that I can stand no longer. He smores in his sleep and keeps the children awake all night. Am I doing right? Answer-No. Betty, I think your difficulty can be remedied by getting him a job as a night watchman.

The Negro must plea- tongue. The time of the N The Nation is accumulating untold trouble for itself in trying to set up barriers of race discrimination. The general government should treat all citizens alike. There is then no need of definitions separating one kind of citizen from another. But if the white race insist upon discriminations based on race, then the colored lawyer must insist upon a definition of race. The task which Mr. Cobb lays down must be taken up. The Negro must plead his own cause in his own tongue. The time of the Negro Lawyer is here. the nomination of Ips. A. Cobb for municipal judge of the District of Columbia has constituted the theme of political gossip during the past three or four weeks. This replacement appointment is, so far, the most recent recognition which the race has received in the hands of the Incumbent administration. The confirmation goes without saying. It is not thinkable that a Republican administration would fall the race in the identical position where a Democratic predecessor had endured and conquered the man. The successor of Mr. Cobb as a worthy successor of Judge Terrell is universally recognized and extolled. Civil Rights Advocate There is one aspect of the case, however, which so far seems to have escaped public attention. Mr. Cobb elevation to the bench has raised the race to civil rights from a legal point of view. He devoted a large part of his time and talent to the legal phase of the race problem without compensation or hope of compensation. He also pursued of having done his duty. This is his absorbing passion. Mr. Cobb has understudied the ablest jurisconsults in the country in this feature of competition upon which was argued our cause before the Supreme Court. As one of the attorneys for the N. A. A. C. P. he had a wonderful opportunity in this field of jurisprudence. Devoted Interests I think it can be said without displacement to our many worthy counsellors at the University. I have been included and devoted interest in the constitutional aspect of the race situation, as he. Single handed he pushed the Washington segregation case through the lower courts to the conclusion of the highest judicial tribunal. We are all hanging breathless upon the outcome of this case as it now rests on the lap of the Supremate Court. But whatever the outcome may be, the race owes a lot to courage and determination to exhaust every possible legal expedition in defense of the rights of the rights of this race. Segregation Decision Before these words see the light of print, it may be that the Supreme Court will have registered its decision. If the court rules in the legal battle. White public sentiment is all but solidly arraigned against our contention for equal treatment in all political and civil law, and public opinion is retrograde. We have little left except the righteousness of the law. Unless we invoke the just interpretation of the law, there is no right for a Negro lawyer is often made the buff of joke and ridlele. He receives neither the esteem nor the reward of colored men for law. Yet only one Negro law school in the nation. It just so happens that Mr. Cobb is vice Dean of that institution. And yet the Negro lawyer has the largest function and advocacy his race has. Negro Lawyers My old neighbor, Professor J. M. Langston, used often to say that, if the Negro ever-secures the full and fair interpretation of his rights under law, he would advocate the advocacy of the Negro lawyer. However kindly the white lawyer might be, however faithful he may be to the cause which he engages to espouse, and not the cause that is impermissible. Prudence and good judgment may indeed require that we employ white counsel in most, may be the cause of the crimes. But in no instance should the Negro lawyer be left wholly out of the equation. He should without exception figure in every assasination of the Jews, of this is obvious. No one can be as vitally interested in the cause of the Jew as the Jew himself. Leaves Vacancy Now that Mr. Cobb has been called to the bench, it will be impossible for the political and civil rights of the race before the courts of the land. Some one must take his place. No more important duty devolves upon the N. A. A. Court, and the court is devoted and worthy successor to Mr. Cobb in the legal department. The Supreme Court is disposed to side-step the judicial interpretation declared that the Negro had no rights that a white man was bound to respect. The results of the Civil War brought to the Negro the same legal rights accorded white men, barring This was guaranteed as far as the enactment of law could go. Justice Nancy Reagan repeatedly denied. Not only was the Xavier political and civil equality, but special statutes were enacted, calculated to meet the special circumstances of his case. Rights Repudiated The Civil Rights Regulations were enacted after the law was enacted, the enemies of race equality began the process of repudiation by judicial negative. The Civil Rights statutes were first declared unconstitutional for the states, and left effective for the Territories and the District of Columbia, where the Federal authority exercised jurisdiction. A subsequent decision wiped out the application of this law, even for these Federal jurisdictions. Then the several states began to enact restrictive antitrust and Fifteenth Amendments. There has even been some feeble attempt attempts against themselves. The Negro has had to be constantly on the defensive. He has brought case after case before the Supreme Court, the nationality of restrictive race legislation. Rarely has he gotten a positive effective decision. Notable Exceptions The two notable exceptions were the United States and bear every indication of World War, and bear every indication James A.

Do they or do they not repurpose the struggle as a position of the average white man? In the midst of revolution the under man has greatly the advantage both of legibility and the ability to The Declaration of Independence was a revolutionary document. So was the Emancipation Proclamation. The Three Civil War Amendments were the most sentiment. While we rejoice in the two World War decisions which the Supreme Court rendered in our behalf, yet we must not let our publication of revolution fails gradually away in the milder periods of peace. Settle Issue We had hoped that the issue of segregation, on its legal side, had been settled forever. But no sooner and no longer sought to negative their effectiveness and to reduce our hopes to naught. Eternal vigilance is the price the race must pay for the maintenance of its rights. Many momentous issues must be forced to judicial determination by our highest tribunal. We have as yet no courtroom constitution, the same as other citizens have. The right of franchise is still of uncertain status, in face of restrictive constitutions, with the education of citizens terms with the right of marriage, the same as other races varieties, the right of residence with no restriction of race—whether determined by judicial determination by judicial decision. Taney Dogma There still lingers in the white man's mind something of the dogma of Taney, that after all, the white man has no rights which the Negro may not share. Taney said that the Negro had no rights which the white man was bound to respect. The present attitude seems to be that the Negro has some rights which the white man should recognize, and others which he is privileged to ignore. Race Definition Mr. Louis Marshall, in his argument before the Supreme Court in the Curtis aggregation case, raised the scientific and legal definition of a Negro or a person of color. This question has never been scientifically or judicially determined. In the case in point, Mr. Cobb concludes that the client belonged to the colored race. The Supreme Court has never passed upon this question. The several States have some sort of a working definitions that lack both scientific and judicial definitions. If color is to be the test, who is to authorize a chromatic scale, so as to differentiate those who fall on one side or the other? The composition is to be the test, who can differentiate between human bloods? Shall the United States follow the lead of Virginia in putting under ban all possible strain of non-Hispanic blood, so who is to be saved? Who can do the same person in terms simpler than the expression itself? Accumulating Trouble The nation is accumulating untold trouble for itself in trying to set up barriers of race discrimination. The nation is accusing citizens of civilization. There is then no need of definitions separating one kind of citizen from another. But if the white race insists upon discriminations based on race, then the colored lawyer must be freed of the duty of great and grave responsibilities rest upon the shoulders of the colored lawyer. The task which Mr. Cobb lays down must needs be taken up. The lawyer must be free of case in his own tongue. The time of the Negro lawyer is here. Weekly Lessons In English By W. L.

He procured a boat and attempted to smuggle the Negroes to freedom, but was taken violently ill; he was captured, tried, and sentenced to be branded with the double-S (slave-stealer) and to pay as many fines as there were slaves. His friends succeeded in raising the money to pay his fines and he was released in 1845. The poet Whittier immortalized the double-S as meaning self-sacrifice. HOOSIT?

A Wilberforce, for instance, we have a church school, dominated by the resident African Motholists bishop on the one hand and by State politics on the other. The bishop is a man of limited education and the result of learning is quite as narrow as the idea of any bigoted white bishop. He has made his son president and the result is that through post-secondary domination Wilberforce has never become a real seat of liberal education. It is provincial, and vindictive, without discipline or ideal, and no man of broad learning and working plans is able to stay there long. "In the Northern institutions for the most part, Negroes are denied admission. Princeton, while it shuffled the admission statement, has never admitted a Negro to its college department, although it has had Negroes in the theological school. Yale has never negroed students, and Harvard used to encourage them until their number began to grow. "Vassar has graduated but one Negro student and did not know it at the time. Negro students have tried desperately to exclude them. Radcliffe, Wellesley, and Smith have treated them with tolerance and even cordiality. "Many small institutions or institutions have been gracious and kindly toward them, particularly in the middle West. But on the whole, the attitude of the northern institution is one which varies from tolerance to active hostility."

He not only easily beat himself in his own class, but once fought a 20-round draw with Joe Walcott, welterweight champion of the world. Walcott stood on five feet two inches tall and weighted at his best 135 pounds. He kicked wetters, middleweights and heavies, including Joe Choynski and George Gardner. Tiger Flowers, middleweight champion, stands with his right hand extended, halts from Georgia, where Tcub and Young Striking come from, and is a whirlwind fighter with a good kick.

CHUR and PA RESERVE YOU Jack Johnson, heavyweight champion of the world, won the title by stopping Tommy Burns, the pretender, and Jim Jeffries, who retired in an attempt to avoid a fight with Johnson, a great defensive fighter, was an easy-going performer, never letting himself out entirely. He gave Sam Langford a fearful-beating in Chelsea, Mass., dropping Sam twice and winning with case in a 15-round. He stopped Stanley Moore, a former champion of others. Johnson would not box a colored man after he became champion, as he wanted to be the only colored man who over owned the heavyweight title.

The recent effect of the Association has been to publish the facts of Negro History in the Civil War; the program of the conference will center around this subject. Prof. John R. Hawkins will deliver an address on the Virginia History of the Civil War; Prof. L. P. Jackson will discuss the education of the Negro during the Reconstruction; Dr. James S. Russell will emphasize the real reasons for the Reconstruction; Professors Rayford W. Logan and J. H. Johnson will deliver addresses on the Negro's participation in the Reconstruction; Professors F. Fisher and Dr. C. G. Woodson will discuss the Negro church through this stormy period. There will be presented a pageant called "The Gateway" visualizing the life and history of the Sending out the announcement of this conference Dr. Woodson refers to the challenge to the Negro. He says: "Either convince the world that you have a record as glorious as that of any other race or remain content with it. The greatest scholars of today are saying that there is no such thing as race in science and that there is nothing in anthropology or psychology to support. Our priority is morality or race. These truths, however will have little bearing on the uplift of the Negro, if they are left in the world. Our standing is determined largely by the fact that must be an act. Gemmation. The Negro must learn his past and publish it to a prejudiced world, and it must stand by a determined loyalty to his family. A nation is known for what it has achieved. The very name of Greek or Roman excites the word Negro rouses contempt. And yet the Negro has contributed as much to the welfare of mankind as the black or the Roman. We know not it because his friends have not been anxious for him to learn his interesting story." HO-HUM. GUS MOORE WINS ANOTHER RACE HO-HUM. GUS MOORE WINS ANOTHER RACE NEW YORK—Gus Moore, invincible runner of Boys' High School, outclassed a big field to win the mile run in the twenty-fourth place of the men's investment Armory Saturday. Moore's time was 4:32 2-5. The Brooklyn star broke from the line near the tail end of the field and out as he hopped one after the other, before a full lap had been covered, and then left his rivals so far behind that he had to weave in and out as he hopped one after the other. He won by a half lap from Alfred Erda, white, of Poly Prop, whose sprint in the last 100 yards gained him second place. Moore won by a third sprint after setting an early time pace. School boys do not step aside to let the star thru on the rail as they do in the A. A. U. races, and on a clear trunk, could have climped three seconds from his time.

Ed always careless, good-natured, caging his way, having no regard as the oldest son, Nathan, could not be expected at 15 to help much toward bringing in a living it looked as if Lyde had it. Lyde was neither a big nor little, dark nor flat, plain nor pretty. She was the kind of woman nobody knows much about anyway because she is not a girl. Lyde kept exclusively at home. Cottonville in reckoning with the situation, did not take into account Lyde's brains or the training she received, but takes just as much quick initiative to get up a good meal for a hungry family when there is only a bone and a run the affairs of government when the treasury is low. One fall morning Lyde appeared on the streets of Catonsville carrying a neat black box. With that quick light step she went. Sometimes she got in, sometimes she didn't, but she kept on all that day and for the ensuing week. Then it began to be told that Lyde Marshall had accumulated a sold $1,000 worth of bessy to the Catonsville woman in eight days. It was true. Her goods were honest and reliable, but the women of Catonsville had cumulative bargain from their doors, and they were not sorry enough for Lyde to throw away money on her. They bought to their own assignment. But bessy like no servant, she --- A woman in a skirt and hat holds a hat in her hands. The Go-Getter THE STORY OF A WIDOW Taking Chances BY A. A. ADAMS It is commendable to "take a chance," that is to venture in efforts toward self-improvement or human settlement, but it is exceedingly "collisch to risk vital interests for gaining pleasure or questionable profit." A boy knows the danger of evil associates; he knows that such associations will endanger his character. He is forced to deal with the for sake of excitement, or as those young Chicago murderers said, "for sake of a thrill," he takes a chance—and he lands in prison. A girl knows that young Chicago murderers are of his dealings with other girls; she has been warned, time after time; but she wants someone to take her out, or she wants a "steady beau." And she is disgusted and her family must share it and suffer with her. A young man admires a beautiful face a lovely form, a graceful carriage, a musical voice, a magnetic personality, but he knows the woman with questionable women and men low of character. The song of the siren and the smiles of the vampire intoxicates him; he takes a chance, a chance but not the chance of being malady which unifies him for life's highest duties. A young woman knows a man is married; that his attentions to her cannot mean mean life; with her uncle he has heart-aches, wreck and ruin. But she takes a chance, she surrenders to the pleasure of "stolen sweets," perhaps she becomes bold enough to waken the gelouisy of his wife. Finally, the wife finds the other woman's letter in her husband's pocket, and this young woman is dismayed, if not murdered. She took An individual is custodian of an trust fund; there comes the temptation to divert a part of it to his own use. He knows others have assisted for just such actions; he rests daunt and in a six year period he learns from his yields — he takes a chance and he ends behind the prison walls. created a demand before she fulfilled it. Every woman she talked to felt that she must have a brown or black or gray stockings of that color. Lyle did so well with her stockings that she could have continued to sell them indefinitely, but her vision was beyond stockings. When she met the maples who maples a little shop was opened in a conspicuous place downtown—a tiny little shop designed to kill a long felt necromancer among the female population. You could buy distinctive, appealing little things fresh from the city shops—a comb for your hair, a box of new talcum, a bit of fingerlace, a pair of jeans, a pair of butt. Women smiled, shrugged their shoulders, peeled in, were tempted and went again and again. "Yeah shopper," proposed the customer, "I want Marshall family left the old brown shack on Flycreek road and moved into a pretty Elm street house. The child helper came to show you booming and feeding. "What a nice-looking family they are," Mrs. Roberts exclaimed. "And they are so well behaved. too. And they are into everything! I never They were into everything. Lyde saw that they were. S. mechow she kept on her goose. He pursued, entertained her children's friends and kept up her looks. She was pretty ant these days to wear her hues and best kept on her shoes. She came to one to imitate her. Indeed, her clientele steadily increased. When Mrs. Silver suddenly lost her ex-room, she bounced to the one that she owned this to Lyde's skillful corseletering. When Mrs. Shiner's bounced to be the most known of the women, known that the wonderful chiropodist whom Lyde had out from the city had been successful in his treatise, off wearing green and achieved an air of Parisian distinction in simple black she owed that to Lyde also. Such things were worth money. She kept on her goose, entertained her family and herself. Her shop grew until she had to seek larger quarters. By this time Christina was able to wait on customer service in the house. The boys were as well trained as the girls. They could get out a washing or cook a meal and thought none the less of themselves for it. Bright, handsome and happy boys were highly regarded everywhere. People began to speak of Mrs. Marshall as a clever woman. She had been that all along, but Catonville was only just finding a place to work in the course. Mrs. Roberts sighed. "She is doing two women's work every day and of course she can't stand it. I expect any day to hear that she has collapsed." The next thing Catonville heard of Lyde she had been offered a position at a large figure as a traveling representative for a big city shop which she had patronized and she accepted going on tour with Faultless Leathers. She sold out to Mrs. Rainer. She did it all as scheduled. She hired Mrs. Pitts as housekeeper, bade the children to go on as they arrived, and made a new public. For two years she merely came and went and Catonsville barely got a glimpse of her graceful, chic and entirely self-reliance. Meanwhile Nathan and Albert went to college. Christina entered the conservatory of music. Carl developed a liking for electronic children progressed in high school. But the greatest achievement of Lyde's career was yet to burst like a rocket before the interested eyes of the lawyer. Lawyer Mitchell, commanding and grave, Lawyer Mitchell of the wonderful Restlawn house, Lawyer Mitchell whose first wife had been married to a man married Lyde suddenly and quietly.

CREOLE What is a crook?——354 Forest St. As to a definition of the world crook, the New Yorker recognized as standard. The word was originally in the 16th century to indicate a person from Spain who migrated to Spanish parents as distinguished from persons born in Spain who migrated to Spain as a native West Indian Negro or mulatto. As now used, it means the descendants of persons born in the West Indies. A crook may be a person of European, Negro mixed extraction or—even if a crook is a French speaking native, whether French or Spanish origin, are called crooks.

Conducted By MME R. CREDITT-OLE Oh! the distressing cry from over the entire country of "Too much fat, what shall I do? I have not eaten too much," etc. I do not think that women are any fatter than our grandmothers were, but we are more conscious of the ap- pearance it gives to us in advancing work, so we differentiate here in milinery, hose, shoes, and hairdress. While I do not disapprove of the corseus figure on a health point of view, it is an undeniable fact, that the woman's figure has spread and the points where we now see the most flesh accumulate, can only be remedied by correct corseting and These are the days when we do not aim to accentuate curves, straight lines are the cusque that we are not overweight according to her height, and that there is a correctly made corset for her that will also absorb the weight there will be no crowding of any of the too flesy parts in to positions where they do not belong. Either corsets or corsets are used to exactly take care of such details. Money spent for a corset or corsetell, designed for your own figure is never durable (fair) and durability is what counts. The next consideration for reducing is exercise, take regularly and strengthen minutes exercise each morning. There are certain exercises that will take care of flesh on every part of the body. Charleston cruzie; it is more of an exercise than a dance; it creates muscular activity, causes rapid circulation, and it can be a pain and thin reducer. We are too fond of eating; cut it out; so few of us need a breakfast; use heavy fruits, especially apples, only enough sugars to keep up the necessary body heat; vegetables that are mineral giving and less of those that are starch making. Do not be so lazy, I am sure you are doing it too badly. Do not carry any of these directions to the extreme, shine there are ages in the life of women that require some flesh to keep in perfect health. MAR—First see to it that you wash your hair twice a month, cleaning all hair with a mild soap well as the hair. While you are drying the hair massage the scalp so thoroughly when you are finished.

Breaking The Child BY A. A. ADAMS (Preston News Service) "I will break that child or kill him," is an expression often used. It means to kill the child's will means ultimately and indirectly to kill him! God gave the child a will because he needs one and to break it, to weaken it, to mean to hinder him through Life. When inclined to go wrong, when face to face with temptation, when temptation influences, when vital interests are at stake, the child will need his will. And when duty makes insistent demands to meet these demands and discharge these duties. A child with a broken will almost always resistance, will be swaged by almost any influence, and will be vanquished in nearly every struggle; thereafter the course is in the child's will, he control it, curb it; but break it.

When constructed the big project will cost $2,000,000, the largest proportion of which will be represented in labor costs. "It is estimated by the Municipal Labor Bureau that 5,000 men will be needed when the work reaches its peak. George McAllister, direct r of the bureau, says much of the labor will be sent from here. Women's Department The local Municipal bureau announces the establishment of a complete women's department. Waiting rooms and other facilities have been prepared at its new St. Paul street office, and the placing of women into all classes of jobs will be handled. Increased orders for common laborers are coming into the office and the large number of men who have been unable to find employment during the winter months, are now able to get work. Farmers In South Are Refused Loans Farmers In South Are Refused Loans Until recently the Negro farmers of the South have been greatly hampered in securing funds to meet their demands, because they have been unable to secure the advantages accruing from the Farm Loan System, write Dr. W. S. Scarborough in the February number of "Opportunity." "They have," he asserts, "for the most part, been unable to get their applications properly considered, this is still true in a large portion of the South. The difficulties in the way are many and hard to overcome. In a few instances, it has been made easier as to the mode of procedure but in a majority of cases, to the prejudices of the section in which they live. "The trouble is with the local Farm Loan Association, which excludes the Negro from membership thus making it impossible for him to get recourse. The black farmer of discrimination, the black farmer has suffered greatly in many instances and has lost valuable property." Supreme Life Insurance Company Shows Increase Large increase in assets and insurance in force is shown in an annual statement of the Supreme Life Insurance Company of Columbus, Ohio. Gross assets increased from $233,716.96 in 1924 to $263,433.44 in 1925. There was an increase in income of $33,524.73. Liberty Life In $50,000 Campaign Luther F.

Central avenue, wer. the kind of crooks that keep the police worried and busy. It was reported late Monday night that the Near East School conductor, Shimasky at 1120 Orleans street, had been burglarized. Sulshin called the Northeastern excitedly. He had just gotten in a large supply of tobacco and cigars, he explained, and was afraid he had been stripped. A patrolman rushed to the scene and the pair entered the saloon quietly escorted a limoed window that showed plainly that the place had been entered, everything else was intact. Money had not been disturbed, tobacco untouched, wine, soft drinks and corn left unharmed. Jackson and Hill were arrested a short distance from the saloon with the police stolen from the pool room in the rear. Both were held for the grand jury on charges of burglary. David Rubin, white, a Pennsylvania avenue grocer, raised an awful rumple when he saw Daniel Rawlings, age 50, 1005 McCullah street, snutch a piece of meat from his stand, Thursday. "I hate to lock this old man up," Rubin explained to the policeman, "but every time I go in the store my pile dwindles. Of course, I don't say he got all-wrong." He was conveyed to the station house, where he was searched. The turnkey uttered a cry of surprise when every pocket contained two or three raw pig tails. "What's the idea," demanded the Magistrate.

Although only a youngster, little Marse stuck at his job until he up past the thousand mark, and he said: "Pop, I'm only tired of countin' all these deeds; can't you give me something easier to do?" So you see, he is not going to put down that if Marse tells you he is going for you it's going to be done. Whether it be selling a home, buying, renting, financing or any other kind of business transaction. MARSE'S WORD IS HIS BOND. 508 N.

Goodwin then according to the police, rushed the rear of the apartment where he found the woman compromising attentively, trying to escape by way of a rear porch.
