PAY NO MORE "TRUST IN GOD" GIRL'S ADVICE TO LOVE KILLER "He Will Save You" She Tells Man Who Slew Her Sister CRAZED BY JEALOUSY CORONER IS TOLD Slayer Washed Fiancee's Wounds And Prayed She Might Recover WASHINGTON, (Afro Bureau)—Held for the grand jury charged with murder, Petronius Don Henderson, 26, 929 French St., confessed this week he had killed the girl he loved, Miss Matilda B. Jackson. At the morgue Tuesday he told a coroner's jury how he had thrust a finger nail file into the heart of his fancee he changed his story and admitted it was a penknife. The stabbing occurred in front of Henderson's apartment at midnight Thursday. Afterwards Henderson took the girl to her room on the second floor where he ripped her clothes from her neck down, baked her wound and prayed that she He went for Dr. Charles Fisher, of 15 T street, northwest, but when the doctor arrived the girl had been taken to the hospital. She announced dead upon arrival by Dr. Howard J. Jackson. The autopsy showed that the stab wound had penetrated her heart. At the coroner's inquest Henderson was the girl he had loved and killed. "Trust in God," she said, "he will save you." Mrs. Annie M. Green, of 929 French street, northwest, told the coroner that she had died in Thursday evening the girl went to a party, telling Henderson that she would return about 10:30. He was in bed at the time she left. Mrs. Green said. The girl failed to return at the appointed time and was dressed and between the hours of 11 and 12 o'clock he made three trips into the streets and back looking for her. As soon as she opened the room door, Green testified, "I heard something fall, and heard her say, 'Oh! Don, why have you done this?'

Austin has sent the writer statements from twenty-five students of this college on lynching. "They are members of the society and have spent some time in the study of the race problem. An interesting thing about this poll at the Oklahoma college is the fact that twelve of these girls favor the Dyer bill. Evidently the old idea of "States Rights" is not so popular among these girls as it was when their parents were in school. For the most part of statements of the girls on lynching will be given in full in these articles. The results of polls in other southern colleges will be given in these articles. Statements from prominent southern white women will also be given. We shall begin by giving the reaction of twenty-five girls of the Oklahoma College to Woman of Chickasha Oklahoma. A student who signs her name as Gladys McCormick writes the following statement in regards to lynching and the Dyer bill: "I think lynehling is very unjust, inhuman and am certainly against it. It is not fair to the one accused of erin is allowed; the people will feel that their country does not protect them as it should, which would be true, and they would have a desire to seek a country where they would be protected and given a chance to have a trial in the courts of the country. And if we are going to have a trial in the court of the country, I should only be able to say that lynehling is a remedy for lynehling. I miss McCormick writes, "I am in favor of the Dyer Bill." Another student writes: "I do not know why and why, if it is against law and justice to kill a person without trial by jury." "I am not in favor of the Dyer Bill. If one or two amendments were made to this Bill it would be all right. I am not in favor of the counties having to put up a forfeit of $10,000.00 for something they had not consented to." A third student, Miss Kathryn Harness, writes a statement which shows that theoretically she is opposed to lynehling while believing in it as a practical necessity. In regard to lynehling and the Dyer bill she writes that "the people are not in favor of the Dyer Bill." "I am against lynehling: (1) Because it is against the state law; (2) because we as civilized, educated people do not want our community ruled by the spirit is created by a mob. However, for years since the War Between the States the power of lynehling has been the one thing which is the law." In Republican states has for years been so strong against any form of punishment of Negroes by southern people and has so strongly voiced that opinion that to control them it has been necessary to make use of lynehling. And we see that after a lynehling in a community years ago we were in the way we were when we were in the way we are now and why were we afraid to do otherwise. It is a form of punishment simply enough for them to understand and until conditions change radically it will in my opinion be the most effective means of control. Few innocent men have ever been lynehled and as far as the goes about few innocent men have ever been a crime. "I am not for the Dyer bill. Each state has a law against lynchings and if this state familiar with her own conditions cannot enforce her law the Federal authorities would have little chance to do it without starting civil warfare. If public opinion in a state is strong enough for lynchings, then the rights and opinions of these people should be considered: "The part of the bill providing for a payment of $10,000,000 to the family is in my opinion a cheap life insurance policy to the criminal but not the public." "As for a remedy—its hard to say, but since lynchings occur as frequently as they do and the present conditions do exist, I think the lynchings laws as they stand are sufficient. In my opinion the people are using it as a more political issue and thinking little of the benefit to the lynchman. It is one more stroke to break the 'Solid South.'" --- FIVE POINT VICTORY POLICY Another student writes: "I do not favor lynehling in an to kill a person without trial by jury," "I am not in favor of the Dyer made to this Bill it would be all rights having to put up a forfeit of control over."

America Where Mobs Run Wild 12 Out Of 25 White Girls In Oklahoma College Favor Dyer Anti-Lynched Bill BY THOMAS L. DABNEY Brookwood Labor College, Katonah, N. Y. In gathering statements from prominent white women of the South on lynching, the writer thought it worth while to secure a statement from students on race relations and sociology in some their degree classes. The questionnaires sent out vary so as to fit the group and the course they are pursuing. They cover in general the experiences of students on lynching, Dyer bill, interracial cooperation and Negro rights. The Oklahoma has a better record in race relations than Georgia, and Mississippi, the governor of students on lynching, known for its oil wells and race riots, Oklahoma is not however, without some fore the Court of Appeals of Maryland and at the same time argued his first brief before that Court.

Mr. Garvey consented to see a reporter of the Associated Negro Press this week. The Atlanta prison is complete in every detail. It is in the Yale and Harvard class of penal institutions. One is remarked: "After noting the type of inmates who are robbed Uncle Sam, you have to know something to get in this place. There no chance here for ordinary folk." Evidently Marcus Garvey "knows something." He is known of all men there about in the big population, and evidently has visitors, from the appearance of his index visitor. He is evidently making good as a prisoner, from institutions in the visiting room, and his personal appearance. Mr. Garvey might have been taken for a business man who had slipped from his private office to talk in his reception room. He wore a white soft-colored shirt, and a flowered dark green tie, a sweater coat and vest, evidently a privilege of his own choosing, in the center of the vest, and doubled back, in the lower right pocket. In the upper left pocket he carried well-sharpened pencils and a fountain pen. He wore dark blue prison trousers, the only indication of his present occupation, and those wounds were a close call. His shoes were well shined. He keeps his mustache and his hair is medium brown. Future Plans Uncertain Asked of his plans in the future in the event of his release, Mr Garvey stated that they were uncertain. "I am like Edward Everett Hale's Man Without a Count. But there will be some plan worked out. Give my regard to all friends and members of the U. N. I. A* With a cordial handshake and equally cordial smile, the visit with Marcus Garvey was closed. He does not seem bitter, but he is thoroughly thoughtful. "There are many people who know I am not such cool as they would appear have me be," said the "Professional President of Africa, as a parting shot. Insurance Head On Western Tour WASHINGTON, D. C.-S. W. Rutherford, head of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, leaves this week for Western Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky, and West Virginia to hold a managers' conference in Cincinnati which will include representatives from the group. As soon as this tour is completed, he will take another group of states. Felicited because the National Benefit heads all the colored companies this year in the amount of premiums received. Mr. Rutherford said the truth of the matter is that the Benefit is just preparing to grow. "We're glad that the splendid insurance department of your state has taken cognizance of the growth and development of this company. I can assure you that it has been a long uphill climb. It appears that in many projects this company forged ahead of its competitors which was not by design but rather the results of hard work." Boy Beat Mother NEW YORK (ANP)—After her 15-year-old son, Abraham Tannebum, had heaten her on several occasions for her refusal to give him money, Mrs. Sarah Tannebumbum had him arraced and he was sentenced to serve four years in the New York reformatory.

I.'s Editor In Contempt Again NEW YORK, N. Y. (ANP)—For printing without comment a report of the American Civil Liberties Union upon the hearing of his own appeal in the Court of Appeals at the Rutgers University, Virgin Islands' landmark and historic has been ordered to appear before the district court at St. Thomas on a second charge of contempt of court. Upon receiving the summons to appear in Judge Williams' court on a contempt charge for printing the report of the United States Supreme Court, the Union for aid. He was advised to plead not guilty and take an appeal. The contempt proceedings are based especially upon the sentence in the report: "Friends of Francis maintain that the real reason for his sentence by the Virgin Islands' opposition to Williams' appointment as judge which is characterized as a scurrilous and libelous criticism of this court and the judge thereof." Steps are now being taken by Civil Liberties attorneys to appeal original contempt of court sentence to the United States Supreme Court. Critic Praises Hughes' Poems NEW YORK—Vachel Lindsay, the poet, spoke at Mrs. Bjorda's Magic Carpet Book Shop on Langston Hughes "The Weary Blues." The "New York Herald-Tribune" in its issue of March 21, said of Hughes. "Hughes is a natural troubadour; and if there have not been more Francois Villons among the Negro race it is chiefly because the Negro poet has not been able to make himself heard. We sincerely hope that Langston Hughes will receive the wide readingaves. He is scarcely more than a youth, we understand; although he has roved half the world. If he can go on as he has begun, American bids fair to have a poet worthy of far more than passing mention. NEW YORK SYBACUSE N. Y. SYRACUSE, N. Y. -The membership drive of the N. A. A. C.

Baltimore should never forget the late William H. Daly, who did as much for the promotion of the theatricals in the early days as any single agency in the country. Daly's was a rendezvous for all amusement seekers in Baltimore and vicinity for many years. There is scarcely an act of the old vaudeville school that did not at some time or other appear at the old Pennsylvania Avenue caudeville theatre. Hughins, Travis Tucker, Cecil and Cranmont, Euble Blake, "Mule" Bradford, and others who have since achieved name, and the subsequent bank roll. Digging through the 1911 file of the AFRO-AMERICAN we disclosed an account of Mr. Daly's lease of the Princess, an old Yiddish theatre on East Baltimore Street, which the police authorities only permitted him to keep open one week. His plan was to play to audiences of both races; hence the horror of the "derby benders." A similar venture the leasing of the old Blanche Theatre on Entu between Saratoga and Mulberry was knocked in the head by Comprecht and Heneesch. Binger, and the small Jewish ready to wear stores in that and the adjacent block. "The Truth The protestants all of whom culturally the latter, earned most of their profits from the colored group, claimed that little (colored?) boys would be breaking their windows; again Mr. Daly had to pack up and leave. The writer was casing for both enterprises, lest this fact be accepted by some evil minds as the reason for the collapses of both theatres. I thought it best to air the true circumstances.

The first and one of their dances that danced or marched by colored tribes. Girls trained by the Tillers, the celebrated English dancing instructors, are considered to be among the best trained dancing girls in the world. There is a quality of perfection imparted in their intensive course of training which leaves them a thing of beauty to behold. The oneness of execution of Tiller choruses, and the beautiful unanimity of their most intricate steps is marvellous. The first large colored chorus that I saw use many of their steps was that of "Shuffle Along." Bournay Miller, I believe, introduced them to the technique. The attitude of colored professionals please me when I say that I have seen girls from Texas, who have been no nearer London than a box of Lipton's Tea, gracietly get away with some of the Tiller routine. They were taught the steps by instructors who had, of course, copied them, but none the less their pupils had them. Watch some of the choristers playing in the local theaters and see if I am not right. Morris Gust imported a number of Russian players to the States some years ago, and so successful was the innovation that he repeated the experiment for several subsequent seasons. The troupe was blissful and one of their dances that of the Wooden Soldiers I have seen danced or marched by colored troupes with a commendable perfection.

On The Silver Screen and Legitimate Stage THEATRICAL SECTION High Class Musical and Vaudeville News REGENT Miller-Slater Company It may have been the weather, or the light but, there was a curse of enthusiasm evinced at the opening of the Miller-Slater Compa- ny here on Monday. From personal observation and attitude of the customers, the lack of interest at the start was not consummated by the work of the principals and engineers later on. The personnel has changed but slightly, there being some new faces lacking from the ranks of the chorus. Amon Davis is chief comic, aided by a young maneper who shows the ability to manipulate suspiciously like the grocery store in "Shuffle Along," was used as a weapon to extract some genuine laughter from the front of the house. In two numbers, Who, and "Clap Hands Here Comes Charley," the buyers asked the show completely, adding the participants to how and result to the point of exhaustion. Another ingenious situation was a clever bit with the girls attired in very fine dresses, made particularly with the audience shouted "and the accompanying dance," and the girls obliged. An opportunity was offered during the bit for Davis to secure many laughts. No musical seen here this or few other seasons, approach this one in costuming and scenery. If nothing more than these two assets are considered, the piece is worth the The players were certainly brave to be able to proceed with anything on Monday at the supper show. The "wishmierers" in the audience were out in full, and insisted on being both seen and heard. A theatre is certainly not a, church, but the thoughtlessness, too apparent here, in persisting in downnight rowdism is unfair to people who have to work like Trojans to earn the mere pittance which is handed them on Saturday night. A little application of the golden rule would not be amiss. ROYAL Mary Mack's Merry Makers. Mary Mack's Merry Makers, headed by Mary and Billy Mack, played to a normal audience at the last show on Monday evening. Frequent applause punctuated the presentation which is varied and entertaining. Mary Mack does the dual duty of sobertease and loading lady, doing business and artistically. Billy Mack, Eddie Mack, Zachariah White, a trio of comics, starred in several decidedly funny bits that caught on with the customers from the opening and break out afresh whenever the three reappeared. Both White and Matthews did specialties that went over —away over. Grace Arnue acquired herself like the artist that she worked with in cancer stepped his way to fame and appreciation. There is a tastfully costumed, salary preserving group of choristers pleasing to both eye and ear. The girls work as though they like it and the customers like the way they work, and say it with hands. Just the sort of dependable show that one would expect from such experienced producers as are these. They're going to think a whole lot of Eddie Matthews and that tall chorister on the on end before the week on have my dye mixed.

WORKED ONE YEAR WITHOUT A SALARY (BY BERNARD BRIGGS) A pleasing occupation and an opening of a new field of opportunity for colored women is the opening of Dorsey's 747 Dolphin street, concerning her work as the only colored moving picture censor in the state of Maryland, or as far as is known, in the world. "It obtained this position only by constant work on my part and religious reading of the newspaper, said school teacher, whose husband, also a former teacher, recently died. I was faced three or four years ago with the necessity of finding some kind of work able to work with several children. I happened to see an announcement in the paper one day of a state examination for moving picture censors, took it and passed standing fourth among the six who were sure to receive the only person taking it." Discouragement But the difficulties were not over when the examination was passed, the examination had been appropriated for separate work in the剧院 for colored. Finally the secretion of Mrs. Dorey volunteer work which she performed for one year without pay. She passed second examination and finally passed the examination. Duties of oPsition Her work is to censor the pictures in all of the houses in Baltimore and one in Annapolis, fifteen in all. She checks up on four of the houses with the rulings of the board and reports any violations. She visits the office of the board every day to observe new pictures and to find out what scenes are being eliminated in the pal eliminations are scenes regarded by the board as immoral. The best of courtesy is always shown her by members of the board and generally by the managers and operators of the various houses which she visits. Inspector At Work "Last Saturday I sat through the picture at a local theatre called the Theatre, and I said, "I checked up on some of its scenes, and when I compared notes at the office, I found that some of them were still being edited by the board were still being shown. The management of the theatre is not responsible for this, and the actors are. The picture is recalled and returned by the board to the manufac The Reviews THE The Reviews THE turer, who must pay five dollars for each censored scene thrown upon the screen. White Manager Rebuked "When I first began this work, a former manager of one of the house-pictures houses and my apartment accts would not obey my orders. He would return censored reels to the manufacturer rather than to the board. I hailed him before the board. He was told that he must obey my instructions, as he would orders from the state. He was told that he must have employee. Since that I have had no trouble from that source. I only hope that some other women will prepare themselves for positions of this kind, so that this bestinging will not be lost." "Bob" Cole's Sister Stages A Pageant RICHMOND, VA—Cora Cole Norman, dramatic specialist, of the Playground and Recreational Center of America, is here rehearsing a theatrical presentation of her own composition. The story depicts the progress of the Negro from the earliest days of slavery to the cost of 560 will be conducted about four weeks. Mrs. Norman is a sister of the late Bob Cole, who played an important role in the creation of Wing "Wings" comedie Paul Roleson. Mrs. Norman also formed the Players' Guild, a group of playwrights and actors who wrote and produced three plays, "Confidence," by Frank Wilson; "Pitfalls of Apprehension," by Dora Cole Nateh; and "The Niteh," by Dora Cole Nateh. Among its personnel were Vashtil Maxwell of Baltimore and Paul Robeson. Robeson was first persuaded to act and to appear in "Taboo," as the African King, by Mrs. Norman. The man was this work, and Robeson was this England and appeared opposite Mrs. Patrick Campbell, the distinguished English actress. Jessio Fauset was also a member of this group.

It may be considered good entertainment and should please all elements of picture fans. Then too, there is another Davis in the leading role, which A novel human-interest device is attained by working figures into the story who have achieved national eminence. In order to give realistic depiction of New York as it was a half-century ago, such public characters as Tony Pastor, the then young "Teddy" Roosevelt, Weber and Fields in the embryo of their genius. Thomas A. Edison, and so these characterizations furnish some of the most interesting matter in The scenes of New York in the late '60's are full of interest, from a historical point of view, stirring the imagination to inevitable conclusions on the march of progress in general, and the growth of America's "Comopolous" in particular. Throughout, the figure of America as the daughter of an irresponsible land-land-squatting Irishman is productive of a sweet, romantic charm that means much to the women fans in the audience. Conrad Nagel gives her adequate support. Shamus O'Tandy, with his wicked shallah, is good for a laugh every time he shows.

The office of a metropolitan daily newspaper has been chosen for the locale of "The Last Edition," the feature to play here on Easter Monday. A reporter is sent out to run down a story on the operation of the fire brigade. The fire brigade must fever heat until the great climax in which a tall office building crumbles up in the heat of a five alarm fire.

At half time the Kappas were trailing 16-7. A slim crowd turned out to see the contest compared with the packed galleries the Greeks have been playing before all winter. A third of the house were rooters for the collegians and a number came from Washing- Baltimore boys who were in the Kappa line up that are attending St. John's University, formerly Douglas high school players. Spencer was in the first line up, while Woods did not get a chance to show his warms before the home game. Spencer Draws Blood Spencer was the first to tally on a free throw from the foul line after being bled by Poles. Keller tied the score at one time and held him. The visitors got their first and only lead in the next play when Hill gave them a 2 to 1 advantage from the 15-foot mark after a personal was called on Keller. "Hippy" Taylor gave the locals a 3-2 lead with a shot from the floor, followed by Keller under the basket. From then on the Greeks were never headed. The first half was unusually rough and at one time the ball landed on the floor and started to mix things up. They were separated by the referee and players. "Chippy" Taylor The Athenians found themselves in the last half and scored eight points before the Chippey. Taylor was easily the evening star and brought the house down near the end of the first session when he dribbed the entire length of the field goal. Taylor came a field goal near the basket. Three men were assigned to guard him, but he continued to "get loose." He scored six of the ten scores in six of the ten tries for high point honors, totaling 18. If he had made six of his tries he would have scored by himself. The score would have resulted, 22-21 for the Athenians. Poles with four doubledeckers, was the second highest score in the game. While the Kappas were bustly engaged in guarding Poles and Taylor they overlooked Wheatley, who on two occasions the court to score under the nets. Simpson Simpson was the leading scorer for the District tossers, with three field goal and one free loss. Spurs and Cavaliers were second. The Kuppas pair of guards. Whitted and Hill did some effective interference in the last session and opened up the game, though the Greeks were in fighting form and the time was too short for them to catch the big lead established in the earlier periods. In the middle, the Unknoona, n. C.

Taylor is confident Dale and turn the tide of battle in many games with Ben Taylor, Black Sox manager, doesn't believe his club will lose much defensive power thru the loss of Beckwith, the hard hitting slugger, who is reported to have signed a Homestead Gray contract this spring. In fact, Taylor is certain the local team will have a much greater attacking force than ever before. The new Sox mentor is extremely modest, but will admit that under normal conditions he can turn in a batting average near the 400 mark and he expects to be at his best this year. In addition to himself he will have one of the hardest hitting outfields in the history of the team. Holloway had a poor season last year shows all indication of holding his own this spring. "Crush" led the heavy clouters this winter on the Pacific Coast and at his present clip, he will no doubt be near the 400 division. He will have won the best wins in Cuba and did not come under 400 the entire league season. At one time he was well up in the 500 class and was voted the most valuable player in Cuba. Wilson will be used in the outfield and should be the leading slugger in the East as he will be in the pink of condition when the first ball is to strike. Atthot at his best last year, Taylor is confident Dallard will come into his own and turn the tide of battle in many games with his clouting.

Taylor will take care of the initial sack with that peer of all basement, Connie Day, on second. Day is not considered a heavy hitter, but he rarely fails to connect in a pinch. His average this winter on the Coast was 250 and if he can keep near that mark this spring, it is all that can be asked of him. The most important players in the longest considerable experience with nearly all the major league players in his years of playing on the Pacific Coast. Rojo has not turned in his contract and may holdout for a salary increase, but "Heavy" Johnson behind the bat with Clark, will make a heavy dust of backstops.

George Finch is shot at back in short again and according to his on the basketball court this winter, he will be in tip top shape. Not much of a hitter, but Finch ranks among the great short fielders in the East. YOUNGSTERS WHO WILL REPORT The question of third, however, is causing Taylor some concern, but if it comes to a pinch he will try to work Wilson on the hot corner. Cleverness Jagers, a youngster from Yountown, Ohio, who will report this sping will be out at Maryland Park trying to win the book of keeping for 150 pounds, but he has a book of keeping for the select 400 and no doubt will be given a chance to show his wares on the hot corner. North who made quite a reputation with the Richmond Giants a few years ago will also be out there fighting for Jagers' job. North starred with Pettt's Giants in 1922-23 and is 23 years old. All of these newcomers but, and grow in sight, have been successful in the hot corner. The shihs he has uncovered at "find" this winter in a young man by the name of Thomas, a pitcher from Richmond. Atho he is not well known in league circles, Taylor will give him a tryout on Clark's recommendation. Lawrence Payne, who made quite a name out in West Virginia for the last few years is the last of the prospects that will be out to Maryland Park for his league and for their jobs. Payne is an outfielder and comes with good indignations. COLLEGE ATHLETES ON CLUBS Redden, one of the regulars of kball team, has been dropped from basketball with outside clubs.

Black Sox boss. Cromwell was, base umpire two years ago, out with the rotating system used last year. Cromwell was not appointed by Bill Dallas, white newspaper man of Philadelphia and chief of the umps. Most of the arbiters used last year knew less about baseball than the average high school boy and very few games were finished with out a squabble. Most of the men appointed by Dallas were his friends and their decisions showed a lack of proper training in nearly every department of the game. Cromwell is a former ball player and is known as one of the "finest umpires in the East. Several sport organizations have already asked Spedden to appoint him. This will be done as the rotating system will not be used this year. Cromwell was recently offered a post by Rube Foster in the American League, but refused to accept the position. Thousands of fans will welcome his return to Mary- Tom Holland of Washington, will be Cromwell's mate this summer. The two will alternate behind the plate and on the bases.

Events BASEBALLERS CLASH ON HILLTOP THIS WEEK Blue And White Will Pry Open Diamond Season With Storer Saturday And Friday WASHINGTON. D. C.-De Hart Hubbard, Olympic broad jump champion and world's record holder for the running broad jump, will give demonstration performances in the running broad jump, sprint and hurdle races at the Howard University Track and Field Meet May 5th. Hubbard exhibited his prowess in these events last Spring to the admirers of hundreds of spectators. Since that performance he has been entered in a large number of meets, both indoor and outdoor. Evans and Cook Sandy Evans, who holds the Canadian one-half mile championship, has already signified his intention to run against an open field. Sandy participated in the collegiate events held at Howard University in 1924. He electrified the throng with a wonderful stride and great strength in a special one-half mile. He claims to be in excellent shape and promises to run from scratch, giving handcaws up to 40 yards. Cecil Cook, of Syracuse University, expects to be on hand to show how a quarter-mile race should be run. This youngster comes in for national fame because of his consistent performances for the past few years. Howard Vs. Storer Coach Johnny Burr will trot his Howard University baseball team out on the athletic field. Friday and Saturday afternoons for its first game of the season with Storer College of Harper's Ferry, W. Va., offering the opposition. In only one department—the catching—is Coach Burr greatly worried. Lonax who has been trying for the position looks pretty good, and may all the berth. Good Hurling Staff The fielding and hitting is all that one could desire from a college team, and the strength of the present hurling staff is the team's strongest asset. In all probability "defy" Slade may be assigned to box duty for the initial game with Roy and Crusyohomme邹尔辉 in reserve. In new faces will appear in this year's Howard lineup, and they are Cox or Braden at third base; Lomax or Davis at the backstop position, and Patterson will cover the right field garden.

O'NEAL 403 FRANKLIN AT EUTAW It is interesting to note that the country's greatest football coaches have entirely different opinions on the forward pass ruling recently adopted by the Inter-Collegiate Rules Committee in New York. The rule was aimed to curb the rain of forward passes in the last few minutes of play by a team on the field in the scoring, and reads as follows: "A team shall be penalized five yards for failure to complete a second or third pass in any series of four downs before a first down is made. "In other words, no penalty shall be attached to an in-error pass, and that it is the first attempted before a first down is made. But if the team in possession of the ball is guilty of an incomplete pass it shall be penalized five yards. Another penalty of the same number of yards will be imposed in the event that the team attempts to pass on the third down." More Restrictions The APFO asked the leading coaches of the country to express their views on the ruling and the two that are published show opposite viewpoints. Others will be published next week. Coach Clevie Abbott of tuskegee team turned out to coach the team in his section of the country last year and many believed his sund was second to none, says further restrictions should be placed on the forward pass unless football become a modified or well-coached game. Coach Lewis Watson who has never lost a game gave he has been mentor of the Bison eleven and is an authority on football, says the rules ought to have been left as they are now will only slow up the game. Coach Abbots answer follows: "The restriction of the forward pass by recent changes in the rules will not make a great deal of difference nor will the changes affect the game materially. The purpose of the rule was to stop a team from throwing a lot of wild poorly conceived punts in the closing minutes of the game. For instance, in 1224, in one of our games, Tuskegee had a lead of 7 points in the first quarter; in the other My New and Original 20-Payment Plan gives you your Easter Clothes without cash, gives you Terms that cannot be equalled anywhere else with Honest Value, gives you the Styles that denote smartness, gives you Satisfaction with every purchase.

"Doing away with the intentional safety was a good move. I believe further to the shot on the forward pass unless football is to become a sort of modified form of basketball." Coach Watson is opposed to the new ruling and cities the Howard-Hampton and Howard-Morgan game. Should Be Tried "You ask for my views on the new forward pass ruling. Of course it will be difficult to say what the effects of the ruling will be until it is ridden. I read an article in which Zuniga said to have played a practice game using this rule and was thoroughly disgusted with it on the score that it meant the stepping off of a dozen or more penalties in addition to those necessitated by violations of other rules. I think the rule accomplished its purpose because the penalty is not severe enough. Let Well Alone "Personally, I think the forward pass rules ought to be left as they were; certainly I don't see any advantage in the new ruling. "If a team is hard pressed to make a score, as Morgan College was against me last fall, I would be unable to risk the loss of five yards on the possibility of a touch-down, just as it is a good gamble to bet a nickle to five dollars on any proposition. Cities 1924 Game "You may remember that in 1924 when Howard had a season to forward pass, and just three passes helper-shelter in the hope that some one of them would be completed and result in a touch-down. "Obviously the loss of five yards in a case like this will not prevent a team from trying the pass. I will think it will work out just as Zupke says, more only if they are on lowow by having the officials step off penalty after penalty for failure to complete passes."

Ave. Next To Royal Theatre TELL TALE HAT GETS MAN HELD FOR RAPE Husband Finds Friend's Hat In Mate's Bedroom She Tells Story Of Assault 4. Sidney Smith, 1533 Jefferson street, declared that he had been framed by Mrs. Arneta Woolford, or Orleans street when he was committed or the execution of the grand jury after a hearing in the North-eastern Police Station on a charge of rape Wednesday. Smith was arrested after Mrs. Woolford had told her husband, Charles Woolford, of the assault when he questioned her concerning a man's hat that he found in the house the previous morning. Woolford had had to be with Smith until 3 a.m. recognized the hat as belonging to him. Mrs. Woolford declared that Smith had forced his way into the home by removing a coat that had been stuffed in a broken pane in the door and lifting the latch. He then made his way to her bedroom, she claims, and after smoking her into submission assaulted her. Smith denied the rape charge, stating that he had gone to the Woolford home on Mrs. Woolford's invitation, after leaving the husband, who went to another house. He was hurried away, he declared, the man. Woolford was husband would come. In his hurry he took the wrong hat. He denied forcing his way into the house, but was both admitted and let out by her. Smith also stated that he stayed at the house while Woolford was attending the funeral of a relative on the Eastern Shore. He was admitted for the action of the Grand Jury. He will be defended by Attorney George W. Evans in the event an indictment is returned against him.

MAURICE MOSS Secretary Balto. Urban League "Tuberculosis is playing a bigger part than any other disease in keeping the cooled death rate higher than the white." So reads a section of the Baltimore Health Departments report for 1923, and this statement is true. The accompanying chart shows. So accompanying chart made a very definite improvements in their showing during the past half dozen years. Until 1918 the deaths per 100,000 of the Negro population from tuberculosis were constantly above 500 and still was as great as ever. Since 1918 it has dropped tremendously and today hovers around 330 per 100, It is still much too high. Last year the rate for the whites was 83.0 and for the colored 338.4, just about four times as great for Negroes as is shown by the chart. In actual numbers, 339 Negro deaths were registered by the Health Department while the whites, with six times the population, had but 563. Approximately one out each eight death certificates filled for Negroes in 1925 carried the notation "tuberculosis." Tuberculosis is one of the chief causes of death in middle life. And one-third of all the deaths that occur between the ages of 15 and 45 in the United States are from tuberculosis. It is estimated that 100,000 people die in this country each year from this one disease. One of the largest insurance companies in the country, each eight deaths among its policy holders is attributed to compulsion. And this in spite of the fact that tuberculosis is a preventable disease, that the cure for it is known, and that the facilities are at hand. While the Negro has made giant strides in the curtailment of this disease the past year, the baby he contends to its toll much further. Tuberculosis is caused by living germs that may exist outside of the human body for long spaces of time in warm, dark, places. They are immediately killed by boiling water, in a few hours by direct sunlight, and in a few days by ordinary daylight. If they find a way into the interior, they become a rapidly increase in number. A strong healthy person will resist the germs, but a weak body will not withstand them.

SECOND DEGREE FOR MAN WHO BURNED BAL AUTO RACES TRAIN AFTER MAN IS SHOT Tuberculosis germs generally enter the body through the mouth and nose and most often lodge in the lungs, the they may attack other parts of the body. In the lungs the germs form little lumps called "tubercles" whence the name of the disease. There they grow, soften, break open and are finally exposed to coughing and sneezing. For this reason the sputum of an individual who has the disease is charged with germs. Unless this pit is destroyed by burning or by disinfectants it may become the most common carrier of the disease to others. It is possible to have tuberculosis for a long time but know it. The early signs are: a cough loss of weight slight fever in the afternoons, spitting blood, and "that tired feeling." If you have these symptoms consult a physician at once. An examination of the chest and amniacic test is the only way to may detect it. Because it is a form disease it is preventable and, gas, is curable. The cure is to if treated properly in the early increase the bodily strength so that it will resist and destroy the germs. The best means are fresh air, good food, rest, and on out-of-hours consumption is no dangerous in the home if heis careful and clean and if he follows the rules to prevent the infection of others. A clean, well ventilated room careful handling of the bed and body tissue the use of soap and disinfecting dishes necessary. Careful destruction of the spitum should be the chief concern. If these can not be provided at home there are two institutions for the care of the colored tubercular patients. One in the city at City Hospital and the other in Honon Md. and the other in beds are provided with the most modern equipment. A free clinic is provided at Provident Hospital. But an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure and to prevent tuberculosis but two things are needed—destroy the patient's sultum and keep the body in a good healthy condition. Be sure to resist the bedrooms. Bed rooms should plenty of air for we spend more time there than in any other room. Dirt, dampness, and darkness are the best friends of the tuberculosis germ, while sunshine pure air, and cleanliness are its greatest enemy. Do happy enjoy the sun and rest. Do happy enjoy your food and rest. A happy disposition is the best tonic one can have. With the constant improvement in this city and the practice of the of the living conditions of Negroes in this city, rules outlived there is no reason why the present appalling toll taken by the "white plague" may not be cut to the minimum. Tuberculosis can be presented as a particularly severe disease when one dies of this disease with the prevention and cure at hand.

The alleged murder took place on the night of January 7, after the men had engaged in a card game. The first knowledge of the tragedy came when Gibson rushed screaming into the yard at the home of Aaron Rodgers, where he and Washington were spending the night, with his dogs running. They literally burned off before help reached him and he died in a few hours later when taken to the Sandy Springs Hospital. Thought Accident At first the burning was thought and accident. When questioned at first Washington stated that he had gone to the hospital and that upon his return he stumbled; causing the oil to drench Gibson and set him afire from an open fire place. This story was recanted according to the Elliott City authorities and Washington was alleged to have saturated the clothing of Gibson to cover up the robbery of money from his wife. Washington denied this story however, and stuck to the first version. A verdict of murder in the second degree was returned by the jury and sentence was suspended pending motion for a new trial which will be filed this week according to a statement made by Attorney Geo. W. Pendleton who defended Washington at the trial. More than 200 fathers were in attendance at the fathers' night held recently at School 103. The contest between the seventh and eighth grades bringing out the largest number of fathers, was a tie. The boys' Ukelele Club furnished excellent music for the occasion.

Churches for Thousands Built by One Man THIS EASTER SUNDAY, thousands of people representing quite a percentage of our group will worship in Churches either built, remodeled or repaired by a race contractor, J. D. Broom. The value of the new Churches alone exceeds $100,000.00. In the comparatively short space of five years this Contractor has accomplished this; to say nothing of the many other structures of different types he has built during the same time. Back of this record, unparalleled in Baltimore, is one definite reason. It is expressed in a policy laid down by J. D. Broom many years ago while a leading Contractor in the South, to which he has strictly adhered ever since: To erect buildings structurally sound, of high-grade standard material throughout; to create an enduring value and to do all of this at a fair profit. The Building Committees of Asbury, St. Matthews, Bethel, Ebenezer Baptist Church, 23rd and Guilford, and of other Churches will vouch for his strict adherence to this policy. If this Sunday, your Church seems full to overflowing and your members need more room or even if you note some repairs that are necessary, have your Building Committee get in touch with him. Overhaul Limited William Johnson, of McPherson Station, Anne Arundel County, was taken from a W.

And after eight days his disciples come Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst and said, Pence Then sailed he to Thomas. Reach hither the finger, and behold my hands; and behold the door, and behold the door into no side; and behold failless but believing. He answered and said unto him, My Lord and My God. Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast been seen and yet have believed. So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon, herer, Simon of Jonas, of Jonas, saith unto him, You, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, he saith to him again the second time, Simon, of Jonas, lovest thou me, he saith unto him the third time, Simon, of Jonas, lovest thou me, he saith unto him the third time, Simon, of Jonas, lovest thou me, he saith unto him the third time, lovest thou me?

SIGMAS PAY TRIBUTE TO JUDGE TERRELL Late Jurist And William Henry Lee Memorialized By Fraternities That the late Robert H. Terrell, Judge of the Municipal Court of Washington, was a genuine friend of man and of such an optimistic nature that he would have been joyful at the own funeral, were some of the statements of Dr. Alain L. Locke at the joint memorial services tenenced by the Phil Beta. Sigma Fraternity Sunday evening. The services were held at the Royal Theatre and was a joint tribute to the late Judge Terrell and William Henry Lee, member of the local chapter, and one time principal of School No. 103. Dr. Locke was introduced by the Rev. William Pate, a member of the Alpha Sigma chapter of the church, who dwelt mainly on his fraternal capacity of the late Judge. Especially as an inspiration to young men, Dr. Locke was a good man, did he bridge the gap between the two groups, according to Dr. Locke, who traced his career as a graduate of the University of North Carolina principal and jurist. Tribute to Principal William H. Lee was made in an address by John W. Younghill, the late Judge, who served as principal remarks by President Wintorf J. Braxton. Excellent music was conceived by Mrs. E. F. Brown, Officers of the local chapter are Wintorf J. Braxton, president; James Howard, vice president; William H.

SAMPSON BROOKS I regret very much the unwarranted attack that Dr. E. H. Coit, the Secretary of Missions, has seen fit to make upon me. Without provocation, when we hear that he fences methods about my reports, so that I can account for moneys placed in my hands, in a way that I can tell what I am really receiving. However, he says that he believes that I am strictly honest, but that I haven't the elements of business sufficient to handle the funds of the church in a way to give satisfaction. In 1920, in the city of St. Louis, Mo., I was elected as one of the bishops of the church, and sent to the West coast of Africa, as the presiding bishop of the 16th Episcopal District. It is true that I have travelled over America and other countries, have received money for my work in Africa and material for building purposes; we have succeeded in erecting a school building worth at least $70,000. Every dollar received together with material has been accounted for. While it is true that the Secretary Department has nothing like what was promised. We could not have accomplished the work with what we have received from the department.

THE AFRO-AMERICAN Easter Services You Are Cordially Invited to Worship at These Churches the West coast of Africa, as the presiding bishop of the 16th Episcopal District. It is true that I have traveled extensively in America and other countries, have received money for my work in Africa and material for building purposes; we have succeeded in erecting a school building worth at least $70,000. Every dollar received together with material has been accounted for. While it is true that the Missionary Department has given some money for the work, but nothing has been promised. I have not have accomplished the work with what we have reived from the department. I am writing this to assure the good Secretary, that I have kept an accurate record of all monies source ACCEPTED REJECTED EXALTED and stand ready to produce such records at any time. I have made long report to the General Conference of the church, held at Louisville, Ky., 1924. This report was passed upon by the members of that General Conference with cheers of hearty approval. And very largely upon that report and my request, was sent back for another four years, and I am doing my work as best I can with a glad heart. I am America now, through the kindness of the other Bishop, trying to raise some money to relieve the very embarrassing conditions in West Africa. It is a fact, and a matter of record, that the members of Sierra Leone and Liberia Conferences have not been able to get out of the town in which their conferences were held, on account of not having the money; not even money to buy bread. The Secretary claims his department hasn't the money at this time to help us. When things get in that shape I do not sit around and fume and fuss, complain against his department, but I get out and try to relieve conditions. The Secretary seems to forget that at the Executive Board meeting of the Women's Parent Mile Missionary meeting at Baltimore, STER SERVICES Indonia Baptist Church Grette and Fremont Avenues Baltimore MACK, D.

C.-Mr. W. B. Bouknight, at this session gave the following account of his use of Bellemont Black-Draught. "Just after I married I had indigestion. Working out, I got in the habit of eating fast, for which I soon paid by having a tight shated feeling after eating. I would feel comfortable. I would feel stupid and drowdy, not feel like working. I was told it was indigestion. Some one recommended Black-Draught and I took it after meals. I soon could eat anything any time. I use it for colds and biliosness and it will knock out a cold and carry away the bile better and quicker than any liver medicine I have ever found." Eating too fast, too much, or eating of your food, often causes discomfort after meals. A pinch of Black-Draught, washed down with a swallow of water, will help to bring prompt relief. Bloat of sensations, eructions, bad breath and other common symptoms appeared after Black-Draught has been taken for several days.

S1.15 POSTPAID Godefroy LARIEUSE She Taught Lou The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weeklv DOCTORS BACK AFRO'S STAND Staff At Provident Among the physicians who endorsed the editorial in last week's AFRO calling for a colored staff at Provident Hospital was Dr. Harry F. Brown, president of the hospital for many years. Said he, "We ran the hospital with performed all types of operations. It performed all types of operations. It can handle all types of operations." Another who felt that the editorial had the right ring was Dr. J. C. Stewart, president of the State medical society. He said the association was responsible for the hospital management. He added: "Referring to the editorial in last week's AFRO-AMERICAN concerning Provident Hospital, I beg to say that the committee of the hospital has never been brought before us. Hence, we are not in position to state the attitude of the Association." Medical Association and the Board of Trustees of Provident Hospital are two separate and distinct organizations and the Board of Trustees of Provident Hospital are responsible for "The Medical Association will meet within ten days and the matter will probably come up for discussion then." Dr. Stewart was secretary of the Medical Association during which time all operations were performed by Dr. S. B. Hughes, Dr. H. S. McCard and Dr. A. M. Curtis, Dr. W. A. Warfield and Dr. S. L. Carson, of Washington. Dr. S. B. Hughes, 1612 E. Monument street, stated that the Medical Association had nothing to do with the hospital. It is run by the board of management. "Personally, I feel the way the hospital is operating," he said, "the circumstances." Dr. Bernard Harris, 33 S. Caroline street, said: "I do not agree with the editorial. Ninety-nine and seventy-one hundred of the patients of the city are operated on in fact that the man operating there is teaching also, will make it possible for men working at Provident to some day do surgery. I think the author of that editorial was Dr. Marco Williams, 1830 Madison avenue: "I most heartily agree with it." Dr. Herndon White, 1022 Madison avenue: "Yes, I do agree with it." Dr. W. Dr. F. Novelle, 119 W. Carrollton avenue; "I have not read the official, but I have heard about it. If I would say I do not agree with it." Dr. S. Bermard Hughes, 1415 Dennis ediition; "I heartily endorses the ediition." Dr. J. Guy Bowler, 90 Sharp street; "I do agree with the editorial." Dr. John Cummings, 84 Mount St. John; "I do agree with the editorial. Officals of the hospital say they cannot afford to pay for services rendered there and that they should position for nothing. I feel they are justified in getting whosoever they can will do the work for nothing." Revenue: "The Medical Association has nothing to do with Provident hospital. I am sure the stand of the medical profession is that of any person as far as having a cultured surgeon-in-chief at Provident is concerned." Dr. Chissell, 1654 David Hill avenue; "It is a very fine editorial. I certainly agree with it." Dr. W. J. Jackson, 1618 Mulberry street; "I am bitterly opposed to having a physician at Provident Hospital."

DISCOVERS 13 YEAR POET AT SCHOOL 100 Trouble Maker And School Bully Found To Be Budding Genius WRITES POETIC LINES ON TUBAL CAIN James McCarter's Conflicting Emotions Interests School Teacher Jams McCarter, a 13 year old pupil in School 100 is a born poet is the belief of his teachers after his recent attempt at writ- ing poems about himself. "fimmic," as he is known to his schoolmates, is a troublemaker and a bully, and all attempts on the part of him to make sense of nature have met with signal failure until one day last week when the teacher told the class about Tubal Cain, once the teacher of Cain, who you do not remember him, was a descendant of Cain and a maker of brass and iron in the days when the history of the world was just beginning, and which his people fought and he was proud of his ability along that line until he realized the harm he was doing when he met his people and another. He brooded over this newer conception of his trade and finally oromised himself that he would turn his hand to something more beneficial. Apparently our little Slimie saw in the war-like Tubal Cain a kindred spirit. He licked the great maker of fighting armor, and he was the story was told. But he was also impressed with the change that had come over Tubal Cain. After telling the story the teacher asked him to write a poem imagining himself the nephew of the fabled Cain. He agreed and was given fifteen minutes in which to complete his poem. We reprint his effort as written by him without permission. THE NEPHEW OF TUBAL CAIN For many years, these years are the name of the river. I've often heard of 'tupal Gain, a Mexican man who thought himself great as great Who thought himself great as great His nephew was brave and thoughtless. And managed nothing that was worthy ... to do. His nephew one day hecum to fight. He soon came soon after it was not right. He soon thought it best to live and like. And not he always read for a light. That the commands said not to kill But there was nothing said about fighters Yet everyone knows that it isn't right I agree to these things. So sum to: To be no longer related to Tubal Cain. To be that dimmie's teacher that he be has a spark of the building genius? While a visitor in the home of her son at 1219 McCullough st., Mrs. Lavinia Gaines, 66. Winters avenue, Gatonsville, was seriously injured when she fell down the front steps. Saturday. She was removed to the Provident Hospital by Raymond Gaines, her son, where she remained for treatment. PRINCIPAL'S WORK DISCUSSED HERE Supervisory work of the principal was discussed by Prof. George A. Johnson in the third of a series of lectures to principals, vice principals and teachers, at the Douglass High School, last Friday afternoon. The impersonator of the work of a principal were outlined by Mr. Johnson as follows (1) visiting the teacher, (2) rating the teacher, (3) teachers' meetings (4) conferences, (5) encouraging professional reading, (6) interdisciplinary and (7) demonstration. Every visit to a teachers' room should be followed by a conference and principals to the office for a conference, he stated. It would be better to discuss problems in the class room, where she feels at home. The principal's visit should be positive helpfulness and not one for quarrels and scoldings, he continued. Demonstration lessons, according to Mr. Johnson, should be the best able to give them. Often they are given by the supervisor and the principal. Following the lecture were asked for discussions followed. Among those who spoke were Harry T. Pratt, Gobert E. Macketh, George A. Owens, William H. MacAbe and Howard M. Gross. NOTICE!

VEron C35' The lure of spring headwear sent Miss Phyllis Williams, former Douglas HI student of 431 Worcester town district in search of one of this season's bounces last week. She was segregated stories in the AF are about some merchants discouraged colored patromage, but a trip convinced her that conditions were worse than she had been told, and she was wrestled on Saturday of last week Miss Williams went into the Charmouth market and had nothing in a gray or black bangkok, which she was seeking. At Milady's Hat Hat she says she was told that the most expensive headwear they saw in the window for $1.56. But into Stewart's, but with misgiving she says at ease when a saleslady approach Williams, but before a selection was made someone ordered the salsgirr to conduct her into a back room. Becoming thoroughly vexed at this indignity, the unwanted buyer went next to Bernheimers and into the basement. None of these hats, the ones she wore, were on the elevator to the fourth floor. Finally selecting one that fitted and became her boyish bob, she held it and while waiting for someone to come in, she smatched the hat from her, and told her she would have to go to the basement. Asking why, she was told: "You had better get away." She smiled and stepped up. Not wishing to have a scene, Miss Williams left the store. Is Water Analyst The experiences decided the shopper not to try any other stores, and causes her to wonder where she is to go to get an Easter basket. She is wearing glassware in one of the departments of the School of Public Health and Hygiene of John Hopkins knowledge obtained there enabled her to take a position as water manager with the School of Public Health, which she was held for 3-1-2 years.

He was then sent to the jail where he were held when he made restitution for the stolen articles.

Thoughts Of The Founder Thoughts Of The Founder "What is death but life. The seed is planted in the ground, but if it does not die, there will be no growth. Death is simile to a dustption tree, so beautiful, brighter and more beautiful home above; a life in which we shall know as we are known, a life in which we shall know as we do not know, our unborn child and our ignorance turned into wisdom. The soul of man is immortal and through eternity shall it not go on its way performing its functions in a more perfect way." Announcement in Cleveland that a college fraternity compelled initiates to cat "black cat stew" led to an investigation. by the city humane society, the university said that each candidate was compelled to bring a live black cat to the initiation. The cat was taken from him and the candidate shut in a dark room. The cat was released and the trembling candidate is served stewed rabbit instead of the student resists he is corroded into yielding. If he still resumes he is put back in the dark room until his spirit is awakened. The humorous scene of Cleveland. If it is cruelty to animals to capture a black cat and take it to an initiation then the college fraternity is guilty. Otherwise the investigation of another student who many tricks the initiation of fraternity members. Some fraternal orders compel candidates to eat raw oysters. Candidates are given a mixture of ketchup, paprika and water under the name of water of life, their bodies are branded with a red hot iron, which they use to cook the meat; they are invited to be seated on a hot stove which turns out to be a metal plate connected with a cord. In the light of the little we know about college fraternities we are not surprised at the black cat stew yarn, we are astonished never, ever, to investigate it as serious enough to investigate. Scrap Of Paper How far is the nullification of the U.S. Constitution to go? In Indianapolis, Indiana, last week $80 persons stood up in the council chamber and cheered when the council passed a secession when the council has been signed by the mayor and has become a law despite the opinions by the City Solicitor and Attorney General of the state that the law is unconstitutional. Thruout the South, the amendment to the constitution guaranteeing the Negro the right to vote and to have a trial by jury is violated. In the Carolinas, for example, white people do not want colored folk to vote. It against the constitution, but colored folk can't vote. Take the prohibition question in Maryland. This state voted for the 18th Amendment. Twenty-three of 25 counties voted dry. Six years ago Governor Ritchie was elected on a platform one plank of which "We declare that public peace and public order are absolute and essential conditions of free government, and that the willpower with our utmost power the forces of disorder and lawlessness, from whatever sources they may emanate, is therefore unfit for themselves in many parts of the country. The supremacy of the constitution and the laws made in pursuance of it, the greatest guarantee of the rights, liberty and happiness of all the people, and all movements seeking by force, threats or organized or organized or supplant these guarantees are attempts to destroy the American system of representative government organized and established by the constitution. Today he would nullify the Constitution by a worn out states' right theory that every state ought to constitution. The 18th Amendment is part of the Constitution, but Governor Ritchie is opposed to it, and his public utterance encourages the people of Maryland. Here is the greatest danger to American government since it was founded. Heretofore federal, sacred and almost divine. Citizens who would not think of counterfeiting or robbing the mails are getting involved in the war which suit their individual fancy. Constitution or no constitution, we disfranchisement and lynching in South, run away from segregation legging in North. Figure it out for yourself where the constitution of United States will be after another years of this type of utilitarianism. Welfare and the Square Deal Afro-American Building, 628 N. Eutown D.

S. Veteran's Bar against Major Joseph L. Ward's management at Tuskegee Institute, Ala., was the fact that Major Ward allowed himself to come under the influence of Tuskegee Institute and Dr. Doolittle. As well might complaint be filed against Freedmen's Hospital in Washington because of its close relationship with the schools grazing the Government land for hospital purposes. Tuskegee Institute donated the ground for the Veteran's Hospital to the site of Freedmen's Hospital to the Government for $9 years for one cent. Freedmen's is a better hospital by reason of Howard Medical School across the street. From its faculty are recruited surgeons and demonstrators, from its students nurse and internes. The helpfulness is At Tuskegee Dr. Motton and his administration has already demonstrated their ability to run a ten year operation in a natural for the Federal Government to locate near this institute also a government hospital where the experience and counsel of our biggest doctors can be used for those who had for the first time to direct a large hospital. In other words, the charge that Tuskegee Veterans Hospital has committed under the "failure" far from being reprehensible is only and expedient, and the identical situation that the Government planned when it asked the Tuskegee Hospital to add the hospital in its early stages. Health Week National Negro Health Week is to be celebrated the coming week. In Baltimore a group of earnest men and women and many interested organizations will attempt to focus the attention of the community on that most vital necessity. HEALTH. In school and church, in home industry, plant, or mission meeting, we must meet education to education for health. Is better baby contests, athletic competition, and clean-up campaigns the best way to obtain results, immediately in cleaner neighborhoods and brighter homes, and permanently in stronger bodies and reduced disease and death rates. It is hoped that efforts meet with abundant success. Baltimore, famed the world over for its health facilities, has failed to reduce the high death rate of the Negro population within its own confines. While local institutions are sending expeditions to Central America to study the control of various diseases, colored men, women and children dying at their very doors, the Negro population is known as a known. Last year in this city the Negro death rate doubled that of the whites as tuberculosis, heart disease, syphilis, pneumonia, and other ailments took their terrific toll. Facilities for the cure and prevention of these scourges are at hand. The local organization with talks and lantern slides, with content and materials on conditions and exhibits, is stirring to retain the first prize captured last year for the best program put forward by any community. The Baltimore Committee may, or may not, win the trophies. The individuals of the race to put into practice fifty two weeks of the year simple rules of hygiene and sanitation and to make full use of the year's resources provided they will have added immensely to the well being of the Negro locally. Executions Warden Lewis E. Laws, write, of Sing Stig prison electrocuted two men last week. Strangely enough, however, in a statement handed before the execution Warden Laws not only condemned capital punishment but predicted the day when this "relic of barbarism will be replaced by a better order of things," states, he says, from 1912 to 1919 there were 20,000 homicides with but 336 executions. Today we have 10,000 homicidal deaths a year, of which number about 100. The death penalty is and always will be an uncertainty. The wealthy offender seldom. If ever, pays the extreme penalty. Juries seldom convict and Gorilla. The punishment is final and there is no chance to correct mistakes. Most of all this punishment inflicted with an idea of deterring others fails. The only one deterred is the one sent to the gallows. Please don't think we want to scold Just because we're growing old. But the truth is you look cold, Lil girl. Won't hematics get your knees? Won't hematics get to cough and wheeze? Aren't you 'fraid your legge 'll freeze? Aren't you 'cold? Senator Bruce In this age of practical politicians when legislators trim their utterances solely to catch the breeze from public opinion of the leather jacket that they are freshening to take note of Senator Wm. Cabell Bruce, Democrat, of Maryland. Take Senator Wm. B. McKinley, Rise of Illinois, for instance. Two years ago when the Dyer anti-lynching bill came to the Senate, Mr. McKinley let it die without so much as lifting a finger to aid its passage. Mr. McKinley for his dereliction of duty Mr. Dyer speaking at Quincy, Illinois. September 23, 1922, said, "If Senator McKinley had made effort in behalf of the Senate, would have been passed during the last session of the Senate and would have become a law." This year Mr. McKinley wants to be reelected. He lost an unnumber of friends in the home country for the Presidency for the World Court. To take up lost ground he is appealing to the colored vote. He has gotten several federal appointment for Chicago to take the Dyer bill in the Senate to the limit. Senator Bruce does not seek reelection this year. When he told a representative in the Association to believe the other had believed the time had come for Maryland to do away with Jim Crow cars, he was stating his own views, considering the figure of the state and not the BIDDING FOR VOTES. Poor Reporters By The Cameraman—P. N. Service In Washington last week two obliging newspaper reporters at police headquarters agreed to stand beside two tough-looking suspects arrested by police in connection with a victim sought to identify his assailants from the four. After a "careful" inspection the "victim" POSITIVELY identified one of the REPORTERS as one of the men who had been involved. It took a preponderance of explanations by detectives to shake the identification vision of the victim, who finally admitted his error after being repeatedly told that the reporters were placed in line mercerize to give the suspects an even break.

Robert Bennett. Buffalo, N. Y. Dr. Bragg Says Provident Hospital, Under Present Management Has Improved and Blessing, Mr. Edison. For quite a number of years in the past, I have been a weekly visitor to Provident Hospital. Despite the various changes in its management, I have always felt with respect to its various administrations, under the several Superintendents, I have only words of the highest praise and appreciation. I do not think that any human could witness among the suffering of this institution, and note the loving devotion of those who minister to these patients, and speak lightly, or discouragingly, of the helpfulness of the hospital. It is a real joy to me, week by week, to go from bed to bed, and to tell each one the love of God in Christ Jesus. I cannot, therefore, agree with the in your criticism of the details of the hospital, but the details from a professional point of view, but this I do know: Dr. Carr, the superintendent of the institution, is an experienced physician, and in your criticism of the knowledge, and in those associated with him in the management of the Hospital, judge it good policy and most helpful to the highest and best interest of the institution, to invite patients to attend, and to enclose nurses, of the white group, they should rather be commended than criticised. "Never back your wagon where you can't turn around." Of all people in the world we ought to be the least dead, the least ill, and discourage a further reception of professional help, guidance and assistance, from the source from which we have received so much, and from whom we have received our care and continually receiving benefits and inspiration. I must say, and I have been in gallimore more than once, that I have never before seen Provident Hospital in such good condition, with respect to e-liquid, and that I have never performed. For my part, I wish the institution every success, and blues. George F. Bragg, Jr. Weekly Papers Have Their Special Function. Says This Writer The layman should regard his weekly as he does the metropolitan. The daily paper he regards as a mirror of local, national and international news. He expects something more than a more cataloguing of news and abread. He looks for insights into current economic and political matters that will make possible right decisions and worthy goals. He assesses and profit without expense and for the most part without, personal bias. The layman does not, or at least should not expect of the weeklies a lack of experience by the big dailies. He expects or should expect the weekly to present current social-, economic and civic matters that have particular significance and no coloring of facts to suit group prejudices; but a straightforward, impartial and impersonal setting forth of the truth that must ultimately make its appeal to the public. The weekly paper should also afford amusement and profit without offense and without perverse bias. FAITH SCIENTIFIC TRUTH FRED B. WATSON DAY BY DAY WITH WILLIAM N. JONES J. M. Ruffin, a young business man of Memphis, Tennessee, some time ago told this writer that "business men today were too busy to smile." His view of our rush and push life is also reflected by Chauney M. Depew, one of the most unique and outstanding figures this country has produced, in a review of his 25 years of life in the April number of his first history. In summing up his impressions of his early boyhood days and the wonderful progress of human affairs, he says, "almost every circumstance is different. The new people are able to live without physical effort and our prosperity has conferred ease upon a large section of the population." THE WE WORK FOR PILIPLY HOWEEN-HE DOUETS Perhaps it would be best for all of us if we stared out our philosophy and aim in life with the idea that human happiness is the that goal of all education. Adjusting civilization is after all the ship's new mission to distribute human happiness so it will go around the furthest and reach the largest number of people. In commenting on the fact that although the colored population of Baltimore is about 15 per cent it furnished 68 per cent of the students in 1925, Director James M. Hephron of the Criminal Justice Commission, told the Douglas High school evening class in Journey, that the figures were far from indicating any preponderance of criminal tendencies Among Negroes. A similar group of whites or any other group was in the same circumstances and environment would react the same way, he said. Records he explained, show that more women than men are surer than men and more men are exposed to lightning than women and not that lightning has any peculiar desire to strike men. In summing up the matter in last report, Justice Commission and pointing out the difference between Baltimore and some Canadian cities, Montreal for instance, with a population of 613,000 and only four murders in 1925 as against 57 for Baltimore it states. But the real answer is not the Negro. The real answer over most of the United States is that the courts. In Baltimore the courts are efficient and quick. But although the police record in Baltimore is far more effective in 84 per cent of the murder cases there were arrests, but only in 22 per cent of theburgings. But those out of theurgings got away without being caught. This report which received wide editorial notice in the World's Work magazine, also calls attention to the improvements being made as the prompt arrests and speedy trials. One thing, however, which the report fails to point out fully is the fact that here in Baltimore the Negro group is at a disadvantage in imprisoning inmates reducing agencies. As Clorence Darrow pointed out in a recent address, here, there is a direct relation between and poverty crime and imprisonment, and discrimination here in Baltimore crowd the race out of many sources of employment and into a corner of less remunerative vocations the envisioned group has less access them more to crime conditions. But even with this no Whitmore of the cool, calculating desperado type was produced by the group last year. Ralph Matthews, court reporter for this paper, wrote the murder trial here in 1925. states that all of them resulted from "passion" or situations growing out of common law marriages. None of these murders was premeditated. Yet the courts have come to believe that among our group by failure to punish them properly. Perhaps the Criminal Justice Commission's detailed study to his question of the law's failure to curb the outrage on our children, if 17 percent of the murders grow. Reflecting 90 Years Of Life Baltimore's Crime Records In "Our Gang" Few movie fans have not had the wholesome pleasure of a good chuckle over "Our Gang," no doubt the best children's feature in the movie industry. Children have gone into parody and theater at the antics of Sunshine Sammy, Fatty, Farina and Speckles for their comedy has been genuine and clean. This picture is reminiscent of the otherwise too high commercialized movie industry. The whole bunch is typical of the kid gangs to be found in every city. Now and again, however, narrow minded scarcely writers of the grown up class distort the reality of the race question. This was done in the week's oll at a local playhouse. Little Farina, perhaps the most adorable character in the cast as it now stands, was "stamped" because he was colored.

IF GROWN UP MEN AND WOMEN WANT TO WORK AT THE MEN WANTER OF JHATRED AND BIGOTRY INTO THEIR OWN SOULS, THEY HAVE THAT PRIVILEGE; BETWEEN WHY TAKE THE JOY OF WORKING WITH CHILDREN, THEY WILL COME TO THAT SOON ENOUGH. Heard and Seen In Baltimore By RALPH MATTHEWS Long before they began to talk about a Dempsey-Wills championship bout somebody figured out that there should be a sequence of sunnies certain as an understaker follows a bootlegger, winter will follow the fall. You can always tell when one season about displace another. For instance, you know Spring, is here WHEN— —the company starts to deliver that loud of coal you've been waiting for all winter. WHEN you're almost through paying installments on last year's Christmas presents. WHEN women lay aside their straw hats and start getting out their summer furs. WHEN you discover that the moths have eaten holes in your best pair of white flannel trousers. WHEN you put your red flannels where the moths can eat holes in them. WHEN after going all winter until the sun sets you discard your overcoat and get laid up with the glove for two weeks. WHEN you start discussing the details of that trip to Atlantic City you wind up without taking every year. WHEN poets write stuff like this: Spring has came, oh! he fide for shame, Hear the song on the wailing breze? *Twiddle aain be nice if we were mice* And you a schweizer cheese. WHEN all the kids' shoes, coats and pants wear out at once. WHEN all the birds returning from the southland think there is no other place to park but on your aerial. WHEN you get louder and better static. WHEN you decide to get up earlier, eat slower, and walk to work every morning, and put it in practice by sleeping longer, gelling your foot, getting indigestion and not reaching work at all. WHEN bald-headed men buy hairgrowers, old men leave their at home; when fat women bear worrying about their double chins; when flappers stop wearing goloshes; when everybody says "Fine weather rains have" and it rains what rains and rains. Oh, I'm Spring! AMOS HOKUM AMOS HOKUM "They say there are very few female detectives what surprises about that. How would like to be called a plain clothes woman?" Another thing that has always puzzled Mrs. Mary Haskins, 1116 Druid Hill Avenue, is why fortune tellers never seem able to do much for themselves in that line.

Kelly Miller Says Kelly Miller Says The education of the Negro would be prompted by the establishment of a National department of education with cabinet rank. At present there is great discrepency between the education provisions of the two races in most states and localities where separate educational facilities are provided. While the proposed department of Education might not be able to control the conduct of the states in this regard, never the less the homogenizing effect of a national agency could not but be advantageuos to the welfare of the disadvantaged class. I. E. A. Superintendents Active, assertive force and factor Both of these relations are useful in policy and promotion. N. E. A. Superintendents The Department of Superintendents of the National Educational Association of New York important assemblage of educators that takes place in this country. The National Educational Association of over a hundred thousand. The meetings of this national body take place in the summer time in various cities throughout the country. In the history of the N. E. A., several notable Negroes have been called upon for addresses. J. C. Price, Boobo r T. Washington, the Rev. C. T. Walker, and a few others have employed this distinction. Of late years, however, it seems that the educational Pharoh has quite forgotten Joseph, the black. C. E. A. Journal The Association is obviously too large for very effective deliberation or counsel. The Department of Superintendent, the city superintendents and has a membership of over three thousand. The affiliated members, comprising school and group principals, bring the total registration to some thousand. The most significant occurrence of the session of the superintendents at afar as Afro-America is concerned, war the presentation to each member of body a body of information. The Educational Association This organization is composed of the colored teachers in the public and common schools of the District of Columbia. The convention issue of this journal, both in its editorial content and in its proceedings, is supposed by any educational publication that comes under my attention. This body meets during the month of February in some designated city and considers educational questions involved in the work. Because the work is scientifically organized and subdivided, the whole field of education receives a treatment whose thoroughness and efficiency is not equalled The several features of the public schools are set forth in pointed, scholarly articles, and the features assigned. Mr. Garnet C. Wilkinson, the able and efficient Assistant Superintendent, sets forth with skill and care to learn, care, and color the schools under his charge. Other articles deal with special features of this unique system by principals, heads of departments or other staff, who are prepared to speak upon chosen topics. The writer recalls speaking before this body on Federal aid to Negro education at-the session in Atlantic City, several miles north of Significant Session. The recent session held in the city of Washington during the week of February 22nd, was widely significant throughout the educational world. The National Capital, one of the annual meetings of such a representative body, deals with the most vital national activity. For after all, education is the one element upon which the perseverance of our national life depends. The one significant recommendation which I wish to emphasize to establish a department of education that shall take rank with the other branches of the government now presided over by a Secretary with the rank of Cabinet The writer was asked to contribute a statement of the relation of Howard M. Grant Lucas is president of the Columbia Educational Association. The success of the Journal is due chiefly to initiative, enterprise and enthusiasm. Unique Opportunity Here was a unique opportunity to bring to the attention of the educators of the country the claim of the three thousand copies of this journal was placed in the hands of three thousand, superintendents. Its makeup, style and attractiveness subject the attention of the chief educators of the nation the merits of this system in a manner that nothing else could do. Superintendents were being overwhelmed with congratulations for this great achievement. The proposition in itself is not only reasonable, but its necessity is compelling. More American citizens are directly engaged in the pursuit than in the number of pursuit. 20,000,000 Children The school attendance numbers some twenty million children, constituting one-fifth of the total population. Seven hundred thousand adults are employed by the people to whom an entrusted share of the nation. The financial budget constitutes the largest item in the fiscal expenses of every well regulated community. Every citizen is taxed to support the educational system. Every school is in every household of the land. D. C. Schools This leads to the suggestion that the colored schools of Washington are among among our students. It seems well that the attention of both white and Negro educators should be made familiar with the advantages of the colored schools Our school board is composed of nine members, three of whom are colored, two of whom are not having teachers in their own color. The superintendent in supreme charge is the man. The Assistant Superintendent, in charge of the colored schools, as well as all officers and teachers who administer the system. Subordinate Bureau At present the Federal government maintains a Bureau of Education, which is subordinated to the Department of the Interior. This Bureau has sufficient scope and definition of function. I recall some years ago calling upon the chairman of the Committee of Education in the House of Representation to solicit his interest in the Education Bill. To my utter amazement he informed me that the Federal government had nothing to do with education. He regarded his committees assignment as being merely a sinecure The white and colored schools are identical in facilities, equipment, curriculum, as well as in grade, rank and pay of the teachers and officials. Congress seems to it that there is no disregard for the basic fact of racial separation. Many Systems In the South and border States, we have separate egregious teachers and Negro teachers. The facilities of instruction as well as the curricula are usually discrepant to the South. In fact the Committee on Education in the House and Senate has recommended the Congress, because the Federal government affects, but feebly the educational life. In the further North there is no scholastic separation. The school of negroes is usually mainly so. These several schemes are adjustments to local sentiment on the race problem, which in turn is shaped by number of Negroes in given community. Few Functions The Educational Bureau concerns itself mainly with collecting and distributing information in furnishing consultation and advice to those who may wish to avail themselves of its good services. The educational activity except the training of the natives of Alaska. School superintendents, especially in cities with a large Negro contingent, have a large Washington plan, which in educational circles, is felt to be the wisest feazel adjustment which public opinion will endorse where the Negro element is numerous. If necessity is felt for a Department of Agriculture—or agricultural education—the department would have a Department of Education exercising corresponding function over the great educational process of the nation and thus to assist in the accomplishment of this undertaking sponsored by the National Educational Association and re-enforced by the Department Super- AFRO HISTORY Promote Negro Education April 5, 1902-Daniel Rodgers, leading citizen and politician, of Brookport, Illinois, was re-elected justice of the Peace Court.

Look and Learn There were no topics on the program dealing directly with Negro education as a special entity. One of the round did, however, stress this special feature. 1.

The four has been organized for six years, but until recently have only performed private and cabaret engagements. The members and Daniel Johnson, first tenor; Norman Allen, second tenor; E. Foster, baritone; and James Ricks, Bass. The latter member is the lead vocalist. It must be remarked that the singers were the recipients of more applause and comment than any single unit of the company last week. Each of the members has a splendid voice which is unique to them and ensemble singing. The perfect blend so desirable in quartets has been most beautifully developed. Through Cross Simmons, formerly manager of the Douglass Theatre in this city and now manager of the Attucks, the singers were brought to the attention of Flourney Miller of Miller and Lyles. At Winter Garden Miller heard the quartet sing and was so impressed that he carried them to New York for an appearance at the Winter Garden. Here they appeared on concerts and greeted impressed their auditors. Next season, it is learned, they will be featured in a new musical in which Miller and Lyles will star. In *Repertory* Daniel Johnson, spokesman for the singers, says that their six years association has meant much hard work, and still they are obliged to keep constant. They are a large number of folk songs in their repertoire, but for theatrical usage, he thinks that they are not so popular as syncopated and other current music. However they are fully alive with compositions of this character and are prepared to insert them whenever their program demands. String Quartet Scores WASHINGTON, (C. P.

The Wicket Gate The Wicket Gate (Continued From Last Week) Then Steve Johnson the unlettered son of a tenant farmer, appeared, loved Linda and told her his love. Strangely, he, too, would see what lay across the hills, —probably, more money, money, more education. But, however, with the revival and shock coated men of God, had come to Linda a conflict with her soul. The first night of the revival passed across Linda's mind; there it all was—the small board church with its whitewashed interior, the cager seat of dusky, excited faces, pulsating with the spiritual urgency with emotion. Then far off in a darkened corner some voice, Neon yellow and weirdly sweet, beckoned. Lord, Ah wter be er Christian in my healt. In my healt, in my healt; Lo'd, ah wanter, be er Christian in my healt. The ghorus of voices that had joined caught up the lines and threw them aloft, and offering to Mighty God. The offering continued: "Lord, Ah wanter be mo' lovin' in my heaht, In my heaht, In my heaht; L'od, Ah wanter be mo' lovin,' In my heaht. I doan wanter be lak Judas in my heaht, In my heaht, in my heaht, Ah doan wanter be lak Judas, In my heaht. Ah wanter be lak Jesus, in my heart, In my heart, in my heart, Oh, Ah wanter be lak Jesus, in my heart." The long coated ministry, facing this eager emotional sea, had swamped, patted and sung lustily. Yes, there they all were, all four McHenry Brother Joseph Lampard, Brother Daniel Harper, that valiant servant of the Most High, Brother Lazus Washington. Linda thought of his sermon, fragments remained with her. He had arisen, tall, shiny, black. His head determined and bulb-like, settled well down upon powerful shoulders, moved from side to side. Their voice filled the ears and souls of the congregation, Kich, bulk, musical, now persuasive, often threaten voices began.

The sobs and moans of repentant weakening sinners, the false brave of more hardened wrong-doers, and finally, the cold eyes and firmly set lips of Steve fascinated her. Linda's temples throbbed, her sleeve sat cold and unmoved. Brother Washington bent far over into the congregation, a modern Jeremiah, pointed an accusing finger, to Linda it seemed directed at her, then shouted prophetic utterances. He was heated, a quivered voice charmed the girl as he broke forth into an old spiritual: "Oh, de stains in de elements is fallin'. An' de moon drips erway in de blood. An' de saints ob de Lawd is returnin' home ter Gawd. Oh blessed be de name ob de Lawd' After he followed the picture of the Last Day, pained as conceived in the revivalists' mind.

Come on in and listen to my radio" but the scuffle that followed showed that the reluctant one had made his escape. "He won't go into anybody's house—just runs home and sticks the well! Let him!" and Robert Dunn slammed the front door in disgust he entered his home. "He's strange, Sonny, wait until he gets better acquainted," comforted his grandmother. "He came from the far west and is strange to our city and its ways." For wise Grandmother had already divined that the young stranger who had come to their neighborhood some months previous had made a happy impression on her impressions of grandson whose friendly overtures were not meeting with the success he would have liked. He's the same with everybody, even Teacher can't make him talk," complained Robert. "How can she teach him?" asked Grandmother. "She can't. He just sits there and they can't say never a word, and they can't keep the whole class back for him. They are going to put him in 'special'." "Oh, I hope not. He is a bright boy and should stay with his grade." And the woman who had brought up three sons of her own and was now mothering this seven-year-old grandson grew thoughtful. She was in Mra, Meyer's little sitting room explaining to the newcomer that the placing of her little son, Harry, in "special" meant a step backward for him. "I can't make out why he won't talk at school," said the mother ex-perienced. "He talks well enough in school, they tell me he's dumb." "What is the difference between his surroundings here and in Iowa?" asked Mrs. Dunn kindly, feeling sure that Mrs. Meyer would understand her interest. "It was a farm there, and it's a city here, but he adapted himself easily to his surroundings in cities we have visited. "There is a difference. You see he has been living here steadily for nearly a year and has been completely uprooted from his old life. Did he ever seem to be interested in any one thing to the exclusion of men in his/lowa home?" I never heard horses, cows, sheep, farm pets, they took them all casually enough. But yes" suddenly, "he loved his rabbits! "I've brought up three sons, will you lend me your little boy occasionally. You see, my Robert is fond of him and they make ideal playmates." "If you can make him talk and answer his teacher, I'll be grateful," said Harry Meyer's mother. "What do you think, Grandmother, Harry is coming in to see my rabbit?" Robert burst out as he pushed open the door that night. "I lovey, isn't he?" asked Grandmother, sticking up the little white beauty and cutting him into Harry's eager outstretched arms. "You love rabbits?" "Yes, mamam," said Harry sturdily. "Did you ever own any?" asked gentle Grandmother. "Yes, ma'am — seventeen — and some hares." "Oh," said Grandmother innocently, "is there much different between a hare and a rabbit?" "Course there is," said Harry eagerly, "rabbits are smaller and have shorter ears — they burrow — hares don't. Hares can run faster than rabbits." "Oh," said Grandmother again. Robert Dunn carried a note to teacher the next day which read: "Dear Miss Reid— Regarding your problem in connection with Harry Meyer, try rabbits. Sincerely, (Mrs.) M. H. Dunn." "It's the funniest thing," confided Robert Dunn his grandmother, the following evening: when were alone, "Miss Reid asked Harry today how many rabbits he would have if he had five and she gave him five more." "Yes," said Grandmother, "and would he did say he?" "Yes," answered answer ten rabbits. Then she asked him how many would he have if a boy took rabbits, and he said, "Seven," but that if he really had ten rabbits and from his ten anybody took these many from him there would be a fight!"

Why Pretty Regardless of the validity of their political and industrial claims, no one can question women's right to share in those benefits of health and strength brought out by outdoor life and athletics; for a long time they were well developed woman was labeled masculine and unnatural. Feminine shoulders is well as feminine prospective have broadened. There is scarcely a city or an institution, wherein some consideration has not been given to the physical training of our women and girls. Now we have the woman athlete, he has measured with us, we are proud of her creditable showing. There is hardly a sport that we can say belongs exclusively to the men, or are strictly men's game, I do not make this assertion to have in mind that I would make champions of all of us; there are legions of us that are non-athletic; yet because we are now free to engage in the sport of our choosing, we are roadwinner; suggest we that we cultivate for health and happiness, one of the many athletics; another milestone to beauty. BOOK CHAT BY MARY WHITE OVINGTON Chairman, Board of Directors to the N. A. A. C. P. THE NEW AGE OF FAITH." My Lauddon Dacies, Published by The The New York Times, New York City. Price $2.50 postpaid. The most interesting part of the book to Book Chat readers should be the chapter entitled: "What We Mean By Race?" We learn that people having to classify other people in some way, have used quite arbitrary methods. Those who differed from them in color, or general culture, have no differences of any great importance. Two that are commonly used are head shape and hair texture. Two that are commonly stripped of their Latin terminology, those mean simply that some people have heads broader than others, and some people have hair that in cross section is straight (smooth), some that is curved (wavy). That is more along (woolly). Moreover, there are no pure races. We have mixed overmuch. Even the much vaunted Hercule is supposed by some ethnologists to be a blend of three more primitive types, one of which is a bleached legro. We also at once get into trouble when we attempt to classify intellectual attainments. Research Scientists can find evidence whatever that one race is inherently less intelligent than another." The history of mankind, as Langdon movies recapitulates it, is this: "First here arises a human form which in one climatic change, over-population, and other causes the original undifferentiated man began to migrate to all quarters of the globe and to meet everywhere different climates and conditions and to be reacted on by all species, upon population, being changed by them and branching out into specialized types. Then comes the second great period, when all these types or races surging about the world begin a process of bleaching, of conglomeration, which is still going on about us every day. Thus from unity to multiplicity of type and back again to unity swings the pendulum of man's racial history." Word Often Misspelled Nonchalance. Word Often Mispronounced Langour.

If you have not an answer to the question, you may want to do so; choose some specialty you like or can learn to like. If you can spare the time, take on a variety, but try to become very good at one. You should know something of your true condition, and your age. You should not start with the strenuous excessive games that her daughter of sixteen would start. External fat is uninsight and internal fat is dangerous. Fat women should take on exercise in the first steps of bathing, and in the second steps of athletic progress add, running. Endurance and good form will qualify her for other sports. As a matter of fact, there is no excuse for any women, unless tragically injured, to perform the reform, not to be attractive looking. There is a considerable amount of truth in the saying that we are taken at our own valuation: you're very apt to be taken for what you think you are; if you let yourself think you are unattractive, and do nothing to erase that, you will suffer in consequence thereof; but out forever a thought similar to this, "I really can't make an offer at my age."

C.—The Executive Council of the American Federation of Labor at its regular meeting today was urged by T. Arnold Hill, Director of Industrial Relations of the National Urban League, to remove the color restrictions in organized labor. Ricci B. Lemus, President of the Brotherhood of Mining Employees, appeared with Mr. Hill and gave vigorous support to the proposition. Contending that Negro plumbers, machinists, boil-makers and other craftsmen were barred from employment because they were barred from unionism. Mr. Hill denounced American, undemocratic and uneconomic, the policy denying full rights to all wage-carniers because of race or color. The president of a colored executive is a representative of the A. F. of L. to negotiate with the national and local bodies that refuse membership to Negroes was urged and the president of the five very serious consideration. The activities of white union barbers in Atlanta, Georgia, which resulted in the establishment (fortunately vetoed by the mayor) prohibiting colored barbers here from serving white customers, was severed and Mr. Hill. This incident was cited to illustrate the cause of the Negro's distrust of, organized labor and the operation of restraint on civil servants in many lines of endeavor. The members of the council gave more than an hour to the discussion about harmonious relationships between the white and colored workers. Among those attending the meeting were the Green Secretary, Prunus Morrison, Vice President Matthew Wool, Vice President; James Benson and James Noonsa, international President of the Electrical Workers.

Ms. will "The New Standard" will say tomorrow. He is perhaps the largest real. estate operator of his race in this country, according to the newspaper. Walden in Brockton about twenty years ago. Terry had fifteen cents in his pockets. Today his financial rating is in excess of one million and he has a fine home in the best residential section of Brockton, a home in New York City and cottages at Oak Ridge, Muss. Terry's father was emancipated when his son was about three years old. The father retained the name of his owner, who kept hundreds of slaves. The younger Terry and his brothers worked barefoot on his father's small Virginia form, which he owned, and patch of corn and patch of cotton." When their parents died, the children went to live with relatives. A distant relative Brockton suggested that Watt own the property and patch of corn in Norfolk, Va., lent him money for the trip. The merry made his first money in the North by digging hold for fence posts, fully as woodchopper, hostler and couchman, and finally became junior for the Young Men's Christian Association in Brockton. Meansfully employed, he M. A. C. A. Later he sought to fulfill a long ambition to be a Pullman porter. He obtained a job, but soon gave it up because, as he maintained, he didn't "want to take His first real estate deal was the purchase of a six-room cottage in Brockton. Soon he began handling and selling real estate in a community where he lived. He quit his job in a factory and started buying and selling real estate in earnest. Brockton's uncle helped him purchase a house and with the success of this venture he began acquiring building after building, and activities to the Harlem section in New York just as the inflow of Negroes was beginning, and his business grew in proportions to the fast increase in the Negro population of what is the biggest Negro colony in the world. Binga State Bank In Million Class CHICAGO (ANP)—In less than five years the Binga State Bank of this city has increased its deposits by $150,000 to be exact, from $288,875.54, September 30, 1921, to more than $1,500,000 in its latest statement. In 1920 the institution transferred from its private institution the vision of the state with a capitalization of $100,000 and a surplus of $20,000. Within less than three had increased its capitalization to $200,000 and its surplus to $45,000. Many Contestants In INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.—With the coming of warm weather there is renewed activity among many contestants in the four free trips to be given by the Mine, C. J. Walker Mfg. Co., in the Trip Around the World Contest. The remarkable thing about the contest, according to Mr. Evans, of the contest department, is that several contestants who hereofore were almost unknown, so far as the number of votes reported, are rapidly forging to the front. Groups of prominent men and women are getting behind certain contestants. Leaders are changing places every day. For instance, since the 15th of February when the ten leaders were published, there has been a remarkable shift in the line-up and a number of changes made in the original ten. There will be a surprise for the public when the ten leaders are next published. Undoubtedly the Walker Company is offering the greatest opportunity that has ever been offered to members of our group. Four free trips around the world, embracing 30,000 miles of travel and all the leading countries in the world, is not to be laughed at. Professor Slams His Own School CHARLOTTE, N. C.—In a sensational article contributed to the University Student, a school paper published in the University Prof. Phillippe obden teacher of French, says the University lacks a strong efficient faculty. His criticism may make it impossible for him to remain a teacher there. Prof. Boden's statement says, "Mrs. Johnson C. Smith has given me a large number of beautiful buildings." Mr. J. B. Duke, by his most generous gift desired this school to become one of the best in the Southland. "Buildings and money do not constitute the only elements to make a great school. The backbone of a great school is a strong and efficient faculty." GOOD MORNING JUDGE Brown Makes Poor Bill Collector As soon as William Brown, 15 N. Caroline street, is at the Baltimore in an indefinite stall, he will probably open an agency for the collection of bad debts. His original idea of collecting which he revealed to the magistrate in the Northern Police State Court, an evening shows that he has genius along this line. The husband of Mrs. Lena Hook, 20 Ajax Alley, owed Brown one dollar, according to the latter's statement and refused to pay him. Brown is enforced by he enclosed the garage where Mrs. Hook kept her Ford car and stole a battery valued at $20. Brown wanted to be honest and didn't want to deprive Mr. Hook of her money. He paid him an offer to sell her her own battery for one dollar. If he had completed this sale he would have been high and dry, but Mrs. Hook thinking that he would be sold to some one else. There Brown ran foul of the law and landed in the police court. The fact that he only sold the article for one dollar would have any and he was held for court. The Judge Also Plays A Joke It may never be known whether reading Jessie James novels or drinking who will be arrested, or whether he was a holdman man or not but he was positively identified by three men as the person who stuck a revolver into his pocket or not that they give him two cents each. Johnson was arrested near his home at 1200 West 742 St. Franklin street; Hillard Mosley, 626 Franklin street and James Brown, 222 Pearl street had notified police of the holdings. "I was just playing a joke on Johnson. Johnson told the magistrate DELAWARE M. E.'S TO CONVENE APRIL 7 63rd Session To Be Held At Daniels M. E. Church, Chester, Pa.
