GET RECEIPT; THEN BE FREE Clarence Darrow Tells Cleveland To Be Independent In Politics "SHUN JOBS WHERE PAY IS IN TIPS" Says White's Psychology Is To Think Themselves Better (Cleveland Gazette News Service) CLEVELAND, O.,—In a talk barbed with sarcasm for the white man, Clarence Darrow, noted Chicago criminal lawyer, Sunday told a large audience at Mt. Zion Cong. Church, Central Ave., and E. 55th St., that the future held out hope for the success of our contention for liberty and equality of opportunity. "Go slow; be patient," he said. "Work every minute to improve yourself." Shun Tips "Seek work that nature has fitted you to do better than the white man. Be independent in politics. Shun jobs where pay is based on tips." "You sing wonderfully," he concluded. "I've just heard you. Even a white man likes to hear you sing. The wave length of the Negro voice seems to be the same. You make good actors—in comedy and in tragedy, too. You excel the white man in dancing. You have great prize fighters. I like to see them fight and win. You have good lawyers—if there are any good lawyers. You have ministers, but I don't know much about them. Black or white, their jargon is beyond me. You have great writers and poets. They have no more ability than the white writers, but they have better material—the pathos, the human interest, in the passionate struggle of the Negro for equality." Appause lasting a full minute greeted his declaration that "the greatest enemy of the Negro was the colored politician." Who Won Civil War? "When I speak to a Negro audience, I never tell them how to vote," he said. "I don't care. As for myelf, I'm a Democrat, and I vote the Democratic ticket. The Negro made a bad mistake whir. he delivered himself, bound hand and foot, to the Republican party. It would have been just as bad if I had not let the politician misuse you by talking about the flag and your celt to the Republican party. In some ways your condition is worse than before slavery. don't know why you did that. Jeff Davis. I would advise you to vote for the Republican party once more, get a receipt and be free. Vote for your friends and against your chemies from slavery. Darrow held that the Negro had to submit to injustice and indignity because of his recent 'emergence from slavery. It was a case of "masser psychology" getting the better of the chemies' and the men merely 'thinks' he is better, he asserted.

UNIONS, CHURCH AND POLITICIAN ARE ENEMIES Kansas Editor Says All Three Are Arranged Against Negro POLITICIAN LOOKS FOR A VOTE ONLY White Ministry Despises Us, White Labor Resents Us GIRARD, KANSAS—The current issue of *Holderman Julius Weekly* published here says, "The colored man will do well to recognize him—the politician who clearly sees in him a possible vote, the white preacher who despises him, and white labor which resents him. Let us make no mention of it all are arranged against the Negro. Labor After the church the Negro has more money than organizer. There are only five trades (coal mining and hod carrying are two of them) in which a colored man is eligible for membership. There are know, patronizingly condescend to allow Negroes to carry material up to them—but let them work beside them in the laying of the ground. Not they logical isn't it? The capitalist has nothing against colored labor. The capitalist will certainly employ colored men and women. But white labor will not permit any such pro- Suppose a colored printer were to come to Girard and ask E. H. J. for employment. To begin with, would have to have J. H. wanted to fight printers' union, would he be able to give him work? The only sensible course for the colored workingman to pursue is consistently and uninflenchingly with the institute, while trades closed to him. After a few trouncings, the latter will be forced to include the Negro in his unions. When this state of affairs is achieved, he also will be profoundly benefited. For it is only when labor is solid that it accomplishes permanent resulpts. Religion As yet the church is far more laden with bunk than the white race—bunk of all sorts and descriptions. Particularly of course, religious bunk. All of the religious superstititions cherished by white people—and then by blacks—were vigorously and intensely by colored there. And in time of trial there is nothing on earth in which the colored man puts less faith or on which he puts less reliance, the latter turns more swiftly from the colored man in truble than white ministers.

A SOUTH AFRICAN STRIKE CAUSES REAL ANXIETY Native Leaders Organize Workers And Get 50 Per Cent Wage Increase HIGHER DEMANDS ARE TO BE MADE Workers Realize They Can Paralyze Mines, Farms And Factories CAPE TOWN, S. A.—Organization of South African native labor under Prof. M. Theale and K. Dadilie, radicals, is causing anxiety aamong governmen t officials. In Bloom-Fountaine last month workers went on strike which resulted in a grant of a 50 per cent raise. Workers who received two shillings a day have been raised to three shillings, ab- t 75 cents. This is still only 25 per cent of what men receive doing the same work. Native leaders regard the outcome of the first strike as a great victory for collective bargaining and common sense. For the first victory Europeans around the whole table in conference and agreed upon the wage increase. This is viewed as an immense advance in the whole tone of relations between black and white. Sooner than now are the workers convinced result, that another 25 percent increase is planned. Government officials alarmed, are asking for the deportation of Kadilie and Theale. They say that natives all over Africa are unceasing and hurried. They realise for the first time that they have in their hands the power to order if only they organize.

CAPITOL CITY ELKS MAY BE SUSPENDED Grand Exalted Ruler Cites Body To Show Cause In Contempt Case SUSPENSION WOULD MAKE QUEER TANGLE Two Grand Lodge Officers As Members Would Come Under Ban WASHINGTON, D. C.—Co... lumba Lodge No. 85, Improved Benevolent and Protective Orde- nance, of the World, is threatened with suspension, J. Finley Wilson, Grand Exalted Ruler, last Wednesday, ordered the lodge to show cause within ten days why it should not be suspended from the order for contempt. The specific order that Columbia Lodge at a regular meeting ignored a decision of District Grand Deputy E. W. Bundy reversing the decision of the lodge in the case of Herbert C. Akers and allowing an Ballot. Akers was acquitted by the lodge of a charge of having made derogatory statements in a lodge meeting, concerning the lodge's putting them in writing as provided in the laws of the Order. Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson was present when the alloged statements were made. Bally appalled by the lodge's putting them in lodge and allowed the appeal. The lodge ignored his communication setting aside its decision, claiming that he lacked jurisdiction. Columbia Lodge is one of the larger lodge bodies in the order. The Grand Exalted Ruler and the Grand Legal Advisor, Perry W. Howard, are members of ir, and a question has been raised as to whether the lodge ruled against Ruler Wilson carries out his threat to suspend it. It is incorporated under the laws of the District of Columbia and may resort to the courts, as it did two years ago, to prevent its susignation. The lodge recently resigned its action in endorsing Grand Exalted Ruler for a fifth term and indicated an intention of seeking to bring the next Grand Lodge to Washington. CHURCH NEWS METROPOLITAN.

Friends of Dr. Jesse Moorland, Retired Y. M. C. A. Secretary Are Also Pushing Him For The Post. They are Said to Have Made Overtures To Dr. George Frazier Miller. President of the Howard University Alumni Association BY ALTMNUS Requests, entreaties, and demands for an article on the presidency of Howard University have been so frequent that Alumnus has been persuaded to bud forth, with the spring foliage, on this important faculty. The original intention of Alumnus was avowed t' reclaim Howard University from Durkeheim. The minute that the fashionable Plymouth Church of Brooklyn added in this project, Alumnus immediately moved from his journalistic venture; but new burgers are arising, new obstacles are protruding in the way of university peace, and new menaces to Negro education are crowding to the front. It is just as essential that students be persuaded to Howard University as the wrong one be permitted to depart. Next President The selection of the next president of Howard University is peculiarly and fittingly the function of the Board of Trustees. Already, a committee of distinguished persons has been formed to serve as a board agent. This committee is headed by Colonel Roosevelt and includes other white members; but the sinews and backbone of this committee will naturally be the color of the men in the Mr. Hawk kins and Dr. Sarah Brown. Newport and Fleet Nominate And Elect The candidates upon whom these colored members agree will be the next president of Howard University. On account of the widely separated committees, frequent meetings must not be expected. The three will be expected to make the nomination. In their hands rests largely the future of Howard University. They will be held by the colored people for the type of president selected. If they measure up to their grave responsibility and brush aside tempting political and paltry aims, they will perform. If they public confidence and render ridiculous the presidency of the Negroes' greatest institution of higher learning, the worst punishment in the remotest corner of Tartarus will be too good for them. Thot Barometer This selection will serve as a barometer of Negro thought, aspiration, and procedure relative to the educational leadership of their own race. It will indicate the three members own attitude towards the educational leadership of their own race. It will indicate the evaluation of questionnaires for the presidency of great university. John R. Hawkins This selection is going to make possible a most profitable study of the real causes underlying Negro advancement on reardation. For example, Mr. John R. Hawkins, one of the best known, most highly respected and most well-known business leaders of the race, is on this very important committee. He $ _{0} $ will thus be called upon to announce to the world whether he considers a Negro competent to head a Negro university. A Colored Bank Mr. Hawkins is pre-eminently connected with a denomination that believes that a colored bishop can lead a denomination composed of colored constituents, a sealed upon by a Negro, and light ignorant antagonism on the part of colored people against Negro banks. A part of his time has to be devoted to inspiring confidence in the leadership of colored people in the banks of Negroes. Will he repudiate his own philosophy and optimism and cry, "The time is not yet ripe for a colored president of Howard University," or will he stand squarely in the position of Negro can run universities as well as denominations and banks? And One Yale Again, there are two Harvard men and one Tale man on this committee, more perhaps to lend influence, more perhaps to aid the selection is made, it will be a good idea to learn if these gentlemen would, undar any circumstances, favor similar qualifications for the president of Harvard or. In other words, a study of both the colored and the white members of the committee is inevitable, to note in the former case if they will accept the philosophy of race confidence; and in the latter case if then ordic conception of Negro inferiority will accept any selection regardless of absence of outlining qualifications. Criticism It is important to assume that no matter what selection is made, adverse criticism will be drawn from some quarter. Only only immortals escape the thunderbolt; and only indendent to the nth power. When they reinstated the dismissed professors on the payroll, they manifest unmistakable symptoms of a conscience and other attributes of They may, at this late date, heal the wound at Howard by legislating in a manner compatible with ascertainable educational thought, and with the tite "political expediency." The Platform Race-loving Negroes, regardless of political, fraternal, or religious affiliations, should be able to stand with Alumnus on the platform that Howard University should secure the presidency, nominally, administratively, and morally that the salary and other emoluments within the power of the trustees, can attract. Under no requirement should the state require constant explanation and apology. The president's own qualifications should be the only necessary explanation. This is all that Alumnus asks. Is it necessary to all race-loving Negroes to mount? No Color Issue Though some of us believe, and the writer is frankly one, that a more competent colored educator is likely to be a same grade of white educator, the writer will not urge color in this crisis. He merely insists that the next president of Howard University be an educator thouroughly trained for job, job, job, recognizable measurements of a. e. real university president. Job Seeks Man One member of the committee has already announced to a group of professional gentlemen that a candidate from the West (of Canada) persuasively asked the writer for the trustee to vote heavily against such a candidate, for he is precisely the kind that Howard does not need. A real university president is not going to job is constantly seeking him. If a further suggestion is in order, the writer advises the elimination forthwith of active candidates. If they are not active, the writer lands the position, they will surely prove educationally weak enough to wreck it. No Pussyfoot There should be no pussyfooting with this grave matter. There should be no postponement of action. A real president can be found, so there is no need of a coup that will keep the place open indefinitely. A candidate fills it temporarily. The eyes of colored America are focused on this committee. If Alumnus had no other purpose than to name candidates who could be distracted by distinction, he would gladly do so, but he is not on the committee and therefore must not be intrusive. He merely wants his readers to give a deaf ear to the cobweb speculation that the time is not ripe for a coalition of uncontroversial nunciature that the presidency ought to remain open a year while the trustees "look around." Dr. Moorland The alarmists are already busy, and they have a perfect right to be if some of the local rumors are more the truth than insignifications. It has been given out almost as a positive fact that Dr. Jesse Moorland, Trustee Pleinpotlery, is to fall heir to the throne. The throne does not have political activity in that section. The professors at Howard actually believe that Dr. Moorland is to be their next chief. The writer does not want to be the professors must be doing Dr. Moorland an injustice, for he surely would not aspire to the presidency of Howard University. It is hoped that the professors must be doing loud ignition by telling the public that he is not a candidate, active or receptive, for the presidency of Howard University, and the writer will help to preside over his unwilling shoulders. The Negroes of this country will never willingly accept Dr. Moorland as president of Howard University. Durkee Nightmare If the trustees have the remotest intention of putting Dr. Moorland into the presidency of Howard University, even if (a) they are a powerful nightmare of an administration will loom up as a pleasant dream in comparison to Dr. Moorland's sojourn. There is not one defensible reason. It could be that Dr. Moorland is president of Howard University. His election would bring immediate resentment from the alumni and even from disinterested persons. It could be that no sober principle for all trustees to observe is that they must avoid the suspicion of using their trust to advance or augment their own fortunes. A trustee must be superior, become president of that university. The reason is too elementary for expansion. If Dr. Moorland succeeded in being elected president, some doctor on the board might take a notion of a school, or some lawyer dean of the law school. Once the practice is established, the practice will attempt a new somewhat similar to this was tried once at Howard, within the memory of us all, and, presumably, Trustees not expected to step into administrative vacancies. Moorland And Durkee Dr. Moorland will be remembered as the trustees who discovered Dr. Durkee and brought it to the attention of the most "Durkeeized" trustee of the whole army of trustees. There will be no gain derived because of his influence, if his influence is to remain. It was never a matter of Dr. Durkee per se as it was a matter of what the writer termed "Durkeeized" trustees to have to have this marked difference in his favor. No discipline can fill the bill. There must be a complete reversal of policies to bring Howard back to its educational objectives. Close Friends Lamppost orators in Washington are declaring that Dr. Durkee became the victim of "close friends". Frequently, a man is bitter off for the question, "Why did you likely to flatter him." It now appears that Dr. Durkee accepted advice that proved his undoing. In fact, the question was ill-founded, whether Dr. Durkee made certain trustees rubber stamps, or certain trustees made him a rubber stump. The question was ill-founded, whether Dr. Durkee gives us a valedictory stating frankly his difficulties. No trustee was closer than Dr. Durkee and it must have been frequent. Not even the writer will accuse him of giving misleading advice, even though the public may not be so charitable. The writer is accepting positions vacated by those whom they have advised. *Retired By Y. M. C. A.* If the committee should happen to settle upon Dr. Moorland; they would have to explain the logic of the decision to the predecessor of University a man who has already been retired by the Y. M. C. A., as being beyond the period of tenure of the predecessor, less active man to run Howard University than to run the Y. M. C. A.? The writer freely admits that in the mission of university hysteria, many active man placed upon the shelf for a less active and less efficient successor, but there is no escape from the fate of the predecessor to imply the arrival at the age of retarded or diminishing usefulness. WASHINGTON GIRLS JUST WILD OVER NEW DISCOVERY THAT STRAIGHTENS HAIR AND MAKES IT LONG AND LUSTROUS Washington Belle Toilet Co., Washington, D. C. Nu-Hair Tar Salve For BALD SPOTS and DANDRUFF | Moorland Not Inactive Personally, the writer holds the same opinion in this respect, of Dr. Moorland as he tried to urge last June in behalf of Dean Emeritus, Collegeless Cook; namely that he should be active in the cause of inactivity. On the contrary, he is most active in Howard matters. The Y. M. C. A., however, which he served so faithfully, thinks differently, and upon the last 'inactive officers. Thep residency of Howard University should not be regarded as a pension plum, but a good staff job for a young student in acute vision, educational experience, and administrative ability. His Education The writer has not been able to secure a detailed account of Dr Moorland's education, which should be of paramount importance in deciding his fitness for the position. Unsupported information indicates that he has not had a college training. If this be true, the opposition of every trained colored educator in the country. Slapping Education It is about time for Howard University Trustees to stop slapping Negro scholarship in the face. In fact, the entire race needs to sit together in race development. No other organization among Negroes will stand for such incompetent leadership as is often indicted upon him. In an ordinary school teacher aspired to the bishopric, the church would not tolerate his ambition for a moment. But any time a minister sees fit to transfer his position, he becomes immediately qualified for the presidency. Training Needed There must be educational standards for educational leaders. There must be a systematic educational training for educational leaders. To have such training, you must under the leadership of a man without the initial degree in arts or sciences is about as sensible as making an ordinary school teacher a bishop. Degrees, of course, never did and never will make scholars or educators. Very often they are but symbols of condescension, but they also provide a certain amount of successful systematic study which is fundamental to scholarship. A college president must self-defense when an exquisitelege degree is required in order to higher rewards of scholarship when he himself has not shown sufficient respect for a college education to earn the initial degree? How can he earn the degrees upon young men and women when he himself has never felt the thrill of earning and receiving a degree? Incompetency If the Howard professors have been up in arms over the incompetence of a president who wears degrees, who will be their reception when they are placed under one who has less reason for knowing educational problems and procedure? It will be an indescribable failure of Howard University to seduce for their first colored president, if they are really going to stop drawing the color-line, a man retired by another organization and known to be without a college training. Pathetic What a pathetic announcement for any organization to make to the world.

"It seems to me that it is the duty of all colored men who are in wanting to serve in the conduct of these Regiments on the battle fields of France to show the members of Congress that they are united in wanting to serve in the conduct of these courageous soldiers, but by an Act of Congress wipe out a unjust discrimination. In the 369th Infantry, I would consider myself derelict in my sacred duty to those who paid the supreme sacrifice, or came home home and did not urge the passage of this bill, to commemorate their A man is sleeping in a bed.

Sweeping thru the room, he wore a violinist, in a voice brimming with emotion said, "Oh my dear Hayes, again we meet to enjoy each other's company for a brief stay." Hayes was equally moved at meeting paderewski whom he had last seen when both were voyaging to Europe and later, the accompanist for the former at a ship's concert. A deep mutual admiration sprung up, between the great Polish virtuoso and the singer. Excited hundreds seemed to be waiting for the two artists. It is recalled that Paderewski was very kind to Roamond Johnson when the composer was engaged in a Boston hotel. The story is repeated that Johnson was fascinatingly drawn to the room in which the great pianist was sitting, and thus being threatened with dismissal by his employers. Paderewski is said to have heard of this and sought the youthful Johnson out and questioned him, as to his musical knowledge, for the music he and was, much pleased with the student's execution on the instrument. He arranged to give him several lessons, instructing him in the manner and technicolor way he played his famous Minuet.

By the insistence of the "Mir" Rahley, who is playing at the Royal Theatre. "Ma" Rainey known also as "Mother of the Blues" was born in Columbus, Georgia, a town boasting a number of musicians, more than two score years ago, and her singing of the blues began at the early age of three. Her authority on the songs she performed who first stared on their way to fame and fortune "Butterbuns and Suns," vaudevillians of no mean reputation, and Bessie Stith. "Ma" has been singing the blue numbers for 30 years. Seven Adopted Children "Young man," said "Ma", (who is all that word implies, considering that she has mothered and raised seven adopted children including life-saving with the company this week) the blues is only a lamenting of a wounded lover who has lost the object of his love, and the blues of a boy or he will reurn. It is true that, "The blues ain't nothing but the easy going heart disease." In short, "The blues of a boy have been mistreated." "Ma's" first number was "The Down Home Blues," since the singing of the first number she has reurned is hundreds of what are now popularly called "indigo" numbers. "Ma's" Earnings The singer's first engagement was for Charles P. Bailey at the 81 Theatre in Atlanta at the handsome salary of $6 a week. Today the modestly remarks that he has a record making activities are beyond her power of calculation.

REGENT Miller-Slater Company Miller and Slater with their company, in their second week's environment, divided with Lon Chaney in "The Blackbird" on Monday. A typical Easter crowd of buyers was out, and Mr. Quinault Miller proved himself as one of old, a master show salesman. Slater, Bessie Allison, Inez Dennis, Miller, Amon Davis and the other principal officers were obliged to help seize the business, giving every ring number, and a bit that had to do with two spatting married couples brought howls of delight from each and every one of the cash customers. Miller and Slater were ringbands and their wives furnished more genuine amusement than has been crowded into any similar bit seen in this ballet for some It need not be said that the dressing of the show is out of the Miller wardrobe which like the pit, has no influence on the effects are produced to delight. The charisers share in the glory gained, and conscientiously work to attend the rehearsal. The team of course shared in the general Easter feeling of good all they received. The aggregation earned formance. The aggregation earned percher, but that was by any means. Lon Cahney in "The Blackbird" proved a wonderful draw. This is one of a series of big features that the team is within the next several months. "Little Annie Rooney" featuring Mary Pickford: Charley Chaplin in the Gold Rush"; East, Lily Chaplin in Opera"; Soul Mates"; and "The Unguarded Hour" are among these. STAR Vaudeville There are three mighty good acts here this week, and the customers at Monday's matinee didn't fall to the table. Jake and Thelma Lavizzo open. LaJose is a Hebrew impersonator par excelent, and Miss Lavizzo has a voice that is a thing of beauty. She stands on the pat gate, her hands to satisfy any team in America. Billy Ewing, the tail card manipulator, formerly of "Luciy Sammy," is astounded by his descent in manipulating the pastebards. Aces were changed to spades and diamonds to hearts in a bewildering manner that myssified the audience. He kisses her and disguises her admiration. Jackie and Lorraine, a sister act, with the former member dolled in male attire and main point for the turn, closes the Lorraine. A picture that would delight the eye of a physical culture expert. Old men and young decidedly approved of the ladys physical charms and the foetus element her frocks. The act is superbly. The audience on Monday was a typical Easter aggregation, causing all of the space for standees to be used. Jack Mulhall, in chapter two of, "Wild West," Patihe News and two comedies opened the entertaining bill.

A new "Rudy." One who has been given a story that does justicet o his better graces. As the a lover as ever. But less according to shiek standards. "Rudy" has been given a free rein, with the "Rudy" as a portrayal of an appealing lover; appeal-in- to intelligent womankind. Romantic? To be sure. But with a more pleasing technic. He is the man's man here as well as the woman's ideal. Brave, courtly and picturesque. Nor will he lessen any in the eyes of the idolizing gun-sheepman, "Rudy," or "Rudy," or "Rudy," or "Rudy," or "Rudy." The big point of this new manners is that he will probably win new devotees. The kind that (excepting the widely accepted "Four Horsemen" and "Nons. Beaucarle") were wary of patronizing asieck Valentino promoted in the flood and thunder doses. This intelligentsia should now be fair gun-for-the-field, in whose story the film is based, commands their wholesome respect. The arrangement on a coolful background of gorgeous settings is noteworthy. Clarence Brown has made much of the moments allowing for humorous tuches, which quite frequently have the picture on the brink of the life of others. It was even a women have Valentino the men have Vilma Banky. She is never delight to the eyes and an admirable contributor to the excellence of the film.

Their performance like all truly great ones is based on verity and a definite relationship to an intangible underground stream that exists in the city. A rule we prefer to leave untapped, "When emotion is so sweeping, so genuine, as that felt and imparted, better perhaps to leave it there and not to attempt analysis. Still less is it desirable to place their performance on the critical dissecting table, to draw faw here, and obvious chord or mediation there, an occasional not too charming embellishment as of "Stone way" seen by Mr. Gordon. One item that Mr. Gordon and Mr. Johnson really thought that it was they who stood in the need of prayer, but the listener was the one. Humor that has appeared in some of the Spirituals *wins wiped away by a flood of deep-actually musical than most concerts* or sentiment in their singing. It would be surprising if there were not as many church services, more new eager for the speedy return of dramatic than many plays, more these artists."

J. — Waltz Dream Hall, Friday night was the scene of the most interesting basketball game of the season. The Morgan quintet led at the final whistle, 24-18, over the Buccaneers, but the score doesn't indicate the battle that raged. The blood discipline, but even so the Buccaneers were off in their shooting, and the colleagues were forced to show all their brilliant passing game to amass their points. Too much attention to "Thank" Jones early in the second spell disease of the boys Cincinnati and Young, guards slipping through for a quartet of markers, taking the score from 8-5 to 16-7. From then on it was an uneven game, the Cincinnati and Young applauding the visitors' team work and passing imploring their own favored Busc to come through. It couldn't be done, however, and the entire crowd applauded visitors as they coughed the court. For the Bues Pendleton at center, holding Jones scoreless while at center, and Knox at guard played a sterling game. Celebs Howard and Grace Goel away both coaches were shut out. Ellwood Davis refereed and Jimmy Laws, late of Morgan, unimpired, their work putting satisfactory to both teams and spectators. The Bues and thirds will play the third and deciding game of their three game series Friday night. RED CIRCLES CLAIM BASKETBALL TITLE The Baltimore Famous Red Circles jersey and basketball title of the East by virtue of two victories over the Rinky Dinks, of Atlantic City, Wednesday and Thursday on the court of the Y. M. C. A. G. The famous Reds lost a hairline decision to the Seahorse lads at Atlantic City, last week. The Rinks came out on Wednesday, Thursday, the crimson lads came back to outclass the Rinkies by a 32 to 24 count. Diggs was the best bet with while Williams with three doubledeckers and four free tosses walked off with second scoring honors. West, Watkins and Robbins found a smooth game for the champions. Bailey was the best bet for the visitors and annexed a total of five goals, but found out a fast, clever combination that kept the Reds on the jump every minute of the game. We have now folded up their basketball tent for the season and will turn their attention to track, field and water sports.

By AFRO SPORTS EDITOR It may be said at the outset that the first team has very little advantage over the second quint. After carefully watching the performance of teams making up the AFRO league and taking under consideration the conduct of the boys not only on the court, but their behavior under circumstances other than play and first and second team will compare with any junior lightweight team in the country. Other than a trifle disadvantage in weight the second team will be more furious and unrhinic keen opposition to the first. The Forwards In Lewis and Wyatt you have two of the best shots in the league. Both are invariable high point men and rarely fall in the pinches. Their footwork is near perfection and they are a pair of forwards their equal in head work. The best guards in the loop find it hard to stop them and it is a frequent thing to see them in the entire length of the floor thur the entire opposition to gain a goal. Bishop of the O. K.'s is a pivot par excellence. He is fast, a dead shot, plays a clean game and good on the defense and offense. Game With Tu Home Com By WM.

The first half found the coll- gians in the rear with the Tuxedo downtown basket looked to be e. 10- duned yards, together with a slimy floor, made it very hard work for the boys to work the ball from one goal to another. Both boys played a good game, but not up to his standard, because there were so many of his friends present, and even the Tuxedo team with whom he once played upset his basketball pas- sion. In the second half Morgan got together and ran the score up to 11. If the Tuxedo forwards had made half the field goals they tried, it would have been a different story. Captain Mack Payne and "Ike" Young did wonderful guard work. "Finky" Clark and Hill were the star combination. Shefley played for few minutes he was in the game. Glascar Jones, Tuxedo center, played the best for his team. How many minutes did he pass on the passing system of the Tuxedoes which the collegians found difficult to break up. A number of roots from around Jersey and New York, most of them Morganites. A large number came with the team, including Lawyer McMechen who is a supporter of athletic in Morgan.

Next year Campbell will no doubt be the equal of any center in the city. Guards The first team will be under the supervision of Captain Thomas, guard who is rated one of the best gunners in the league. His running mate is Corbin of the "Y" Defenders. Both are clever players, dead shots and know how to block a shot or stop an opponent without fouling him. Both of these men form a sturdy defense and are hard to shake off. Thomas, in addition, is a cool leader who knows how to win. The final whistle is whistle. Under his direction a team can always feel that victory is never lost. What went for the first team goes for the second. The bars of captaincy go to Hunt of the Turpise. Besides being a good court player, he has been his cheerful words and hard playing in many crucial games that have turned a rout into a victory. The guard combination of Jones and Parker with "Specs" Campbell in center and Hunt and R. Campbell in formidable fife that will give a good fight to any team in their class. xedo Was ing For Morgan Twice Told Sport Tales FIFTEEN YEARS AGO April 8, 1911 The ladies' gymnasium class has taken over at practice and had their first meeting at K.

C. of Washington who are champions of the District, on the court of the Twelfth Street "Y" grm Easter Monday night by a score of 45 to 38. At the half way mark the Baltimore double line ends 24 to 14 court, but a last minute spurt in the half brought them within two points of the leaders with the score 36-34, but the Community toppers began a baffling pasing game that carried them to the front without much John Wesley Lewis John Lewis carried the brunt of attack for the visitors and caged eight field goals and five out of six free throws. He was the individual playing and clever floor work elicited much favorable comment. Bhilsh and Carroll with four field goals each, made up the scoring manifold. He was off form and never came near his usual mark. This is the first game he has played in this season that he did not win. He has his long shots that spelled defeat for many teams this year, failed to find their mark Monday night. The game was slow with both teams evidently off to victory. Thomas Classy The Washington champions presented a classy passing combination with the pill in the back and the pill in the front and Givens Thomas accounted for four goals while Lacey and Givens scored six each. The game was clean as usual, with Givens sportmanship, the rabble in the galleries "got the goat" of the Nonquennial lads, as this was their first combat among "enemies." However, the Baltimore champions will have a chance to tie up the series Saturday night when the District boys Bulmore and Baltimore on the count of the Drudg Hill Avenue Branch "Y."

C. champions of Washington, in the second game of the inter-city series Saturday night at the Yankees' home of the basketball title of the District and Baltimore. The O. K.'s won the Baltimore championship by defeating S. B. Williams by 22 to 20 in a hair raising contest that was won in the final seconds of play. At the half way mark the O. K.'s were hanging, on by the narrow margin of a Carroll Carroll, a substitute sent into the game late, really deserved the credit for the O. K. victory. It was his goal from down the field, and he scored the edge and necessary two points to win. Carroll was the main factor in the Thursday night game, when his team defeated Grace, who had been the only team with several shots from the far end of the count that cut the cords squarely in half. The Catholics put up their greatest game, but the unarmy shooting of Carroll proved too much to overcome. "Fat" Brown, with three field goals, the floorwork offland and the generalship of Thomas featured the Bishop, the All Star center for the O. K., was a veritable hurricane on defense and offense. He was the individual high score with five field goals, and the 22 points failed by his team. Saturday Night Lewis, an All Star forward, played his usual fast and fast game, but close guarding held him to two baselines, and he held off all of the Saturday night will be the second game of the dual championship and decide if the series will be carried into the final. Thomas stands in Lacey and Thomas has two of the deadest shots in Washington. Thomas stands over six feet tall and merely has to tip-too to put the ball in the box.

They played with "Teen" Brown in a long range battle that set the fans on the edge. Brown with sensational long shots, thrilled the spectators with his brilliant shooting from the far end of the field. Brown won the extra session by the slim margin of two points. These two teams were tied for first place in the second half with Grace and Teen, both to win. At half time the church champions were leading 19 to 11.

Union Mentor Is One Of Few Coaches To Favor New Ruling This is the second of a series of articles by noted football coaches expressing their views on the importance of the American-Inter-Collegiate Football Rules Committee in New York curbing the use of the forward pass by coaches in the league. This is the last minute effort to score. Coach U. S. Young of Lincoln University will contribute an article in next week's AFRO—Editor's Note. The new forward, pr. ruling which will inflict a penalty of five yards on a team for committing a forward pass in series of four downs before a first down is made, meets with the approval of Coach T. W. Hatcher, R.I. Hamilton, Va. Coach Harvey favors the new rule because he thinks it will add more thrills and developed the long pass. The Union mentor says: **Favors:** As the new ruling on the forward pass it will tend to lessen the number of passes since few coaches will risk a five yard penalty for a five yard pass. "However, I think there will be plenty of the long, spectacular passes and, the spectators are looking. Numerous short passes have certainly slowed up the game. "Dares and risks are what the public wants, this new ruling will add another. "Brought up in the school of football, the pass has one of my pets. Yet I favor the new rule because I believe it will add more thrills and develop the long pass." Coach E. P. Hurt of Virginia Seminary and College, Lynchburg Va., believes the new regulation or the pass a decided setback to the game and gives the advantage to the players. "Sons why the new rule will be unpopular. His answer follows: Setback to Football "I consider the new forward pass ruling a distinct setback to the development of present day football." "It will slow up the game considerably." "It will give undue advantage to heavy teams. He has only lately been used as a real offensive weapon and not simply as a threat, and to curb it now is to take a ballet at the open game, which has given the team so many thrills. "It might also mean that the game will revert to the old style of men's tennis," said the coach of fiveteen yards will not stop a team from throwing a number of passes in a last desperate effort to score says Coach Gld. The Champion Institute coach Smith states: Will Not Be Remedy "As to the new ruling on the forward pass I believe, as do many others, that it will not make the evil for which it was made. "The loss of five or ten yards will not stop a team from throwing numerous numbers with but few minutes left in which to play. A completed pass of thirty yards or a possible touchdown will not stop a team from five or ten yards lost in penalties. A team that is behind a few points near the end of the game has all to gain and be successful. This rule does work a slight hardship upon a team that has developed the pass as its main weapon, however, that such a team will develop to a point that all passes that are tried will be completed. Assessing that the pass cannot be completed, will not throw the ball, but will run trying at least to make the pass may not result in any gain but will eliminate the penalty. More Passes Completed "I believe that more passes will increase the new ruling, for a greater premium is placed upon a completed pass." Several years ago a punt ball to any player who recovered it, regardless of what side did the punting. During the time that this rule was in effect more punks were caught hence had better catchers punts. "Today it is a common thing to see punted balls bounding about the playing field for ten minutes on punts awards the ball to the side not kicking. In our present game players form around a punted ball and watch it as though it were hot and would burn them should they touch it. "Players today do not catch punts when they are hard to handle or when the players are poor catchers of punts. "A similar thing will happen in regard to the new forward pass rule only in the re-reading of the new rule to see that the new ruling will either help or hinder me in developing my team."

Howard Wright coached both teams. Hill, Clark and Jones were at a matinee dance Monday afternoon to the Richmond Market Armory. Jones Valley Inn Orchestra. With very little strength, Morgan was at a serious disadvantage with a team like the Baltimore line string ups. The big armory floor seemed to tire Morgan more than the Athenians. Neither team sent in substitutes. With seconds to play, and the score tied 24-24, Poles joooped cager putting the game on ice for championship and copping the city championship. "Herb" Keller "Herb" Keller, the tall Greek center, reaped the lion's share of the spots for the winners in the different angles of the floor. "Lanky" Jones, the peeless Morgan center, was confined to the middle of the shooting for the collegians by looping five doubleckers from the court and tossing two charity throws from the field. 22 of the points scored by his team. "Chippy" Taylor, the "ghost" played a semi tional floor game and was a favorite for basketballs was credited with three while Wheatley caged two. Morgan Led Near End "Mars" Hill and "Pinky" Clark in forward rounded out a smooth combination for Morgan. Morgan led until near the closing sessions when the scout Wheatley was put out on fouls. Veny being sent in to take his place. Jones was not given an opportunity to show his wares by handling the ball with one hand but once. Bill Harris and Wheatley put up the preliminary two AFR league teams. Grace and Turquois fought to a .28 to .16 score in favor of the Grace dribblers. Wyatt and Ed Allor played a brilliant game for the winners while Hunt was the main scoring factor for the Turquois. Captain Thomas of the football team is out for basketball. He ought to make a good guard. There was little to choose between either team. Morgan, showed a. superior passing game, backed up by the touch. Poles and Taylor missed—several set-ups. So did Pinky Clark. He had the tying goal on, the basket rim but it did not go in. Hill was off form and so was. In the end, Clark was a dazzling game. Pinky Clark was the fastest thing on the floor.

ADULT LIFE DISEASES TAKE BIGGEST TOLL City's High Death Rate Hits Hardest Those From 15 To 59 RESULT IS HARDSHIP ON WORKING PEOPLE Average Life Span For Indi- viduals Is From 50 To 54 Years By R. M. MOSS Secretary Baltimore Urban League Deaths amon: Negroes of working age are far too high and constitute a serious eco- nomic problem. This is the conclusion to be drawn from this series of death rate studies that have appeared in the AFRO-AMERICAN for the past few weeks. Most of the diseases that are contributing to the unusually high Negro death rate are necrosis, necrosis, heart disease, Bertsh's disease, etc. The average death rate for the Negro resident in the United States at the present time is about 18 per thousand while that of the race is about 14 per thousand according to the leading insurance company's statisticians. In Baltimore the rate for the whites has averaged for the past five years 12, which is slightly above the average. But for the Negro the average is about 10 per 5 deaths per 1000 greater than for the country as a whole. And this is in spite of the fact that in two of these years 1921 and 1922 the Negro death rate in Baltimore reached the lowest point it has ever 15 To 59 The most serious aspect of the local situation is the high per centage of deaths in the age groups 15 to 59, inclusive, the working age groups 10 to 49, and the elderly. Of these 3,352 of 39 per cent were in the age groups from 15 to 59. In that same year 2,648 Negroes died and of this number 1,589 or 60 per cent. The accompanying chart will show graphically the disproportionate percentage of Negroes of the working age groups that died here in the years 1923 and 1924. The percentage of Negroes who died on to their reward is 50 per cent greater than the number of whites of the same ages. Moreover, the greater life span of the whites is reflected in the fact that the greatest number of deaths for whites occurred was 65 to 69, inclusive, while for Negroes it was 50 to 54. The age group 60 to 64, inclusive, had the second highest number of deaths, the second highest for Negroes was 40 to 44 inclusive. Based On Sex A striking difference for the races on the basis of six is noted. Of the deaths among the women of the working-age group: of the females 36 percent were of this grouping. The percentage of deaths among the women shows no difference on the basis of sex, 60 per cent being the figure for both sexes in 124%. Of the males of the white race is the clue to to this situation. The percentage of white women who work out of the home is but 8%. The percentage of women entrants. This greater exposure and the less favorable home conditions of the Negro women is thus reflected in the greater number of deaths in A high death rate in middle life is a serious economic problem for the race. While a couple who lose their first born probably feel that the worse thing in the world has happened is that the more women in a nation when the head of a family passes out in middle life, leaving dependents behind. Perhaps the fact that 35 per cent of the city's charity cases come from this is but 15, per cent of the total population, is partially accounted for here. Health Week This week the National Negro Health Week groups are at work in this city with mass meetings, radio talk-ins, and town hall campaigns, seeking to carry the message of health to every nook and corner of our city. They should call attention to the fact that the diseases call in our city are the diseases of middle life, that they are largely preventable, and curable. Regular examinations by a company that provides hygiene and sanitation will rapidly cut the prevailing death rates locally.

Holland and Miss Ada Belle Watts were appointed assistant supervisors of elementary schools at a salary of $2,100 per annum, at the regular meeting of the Board of School Commissioners last Thursday afternoon. Miss Holland who is now teacher-in-charge of School 107, Druid Hill avenue near Biddle street, will supervise the work of the primary grades, first, second and third. Miss Watts, now teaching Mount streets, will be in charge of the intermediate grades. Named Vice Principal William T. Griggs, now vice principal of School 112, Calhoun and Laurens street, was appointed in charge of the school's street streets which will be turned over to colored pupils on April 12th. His present status and salary will remain the same. This school which is to be known as the "School of the Wooden brick building, of 19 rooms, crowded in 1886, with an addition in 1889. It can accommodate $00 children, according to the survey made by the school Association several years ago. There are two stairway leads to the second floor, wooden construction. Two cloak rooms are provided in the school building, in the corridors. Five hot air furnaces and one steam boiler provide heat and ventilation is secured through windows and doors. The report adds to the building the two wooden fire protection other than the two wooden fire escapes. The playground has more apparatus than most schools of the city, is equipped with four sliding boards, see-saws and two basketball courts. The acquisition of this school eliminates the necessity of having from 500 to 1,000 pupils on part time in West Baltimore. The aim of the school authorities is to abolish all part time classes this year. Night School Enrollment The net roll of the colored schools on February 28th was 1,572 according to a report compiled by the Bureau of Research and presented to the Board by Dr. Wiegeln, superintendent of schools. This is an increase of 333 over the net roll last year. Net roll in the academic department was: elementary, 932; secondary, 80; in the vocational department: commercial, 184; industrial, 147; and home economics, 259.

Scott returned back. She still refused to put Scott out of the house. Sunday Banks declared he again asked Scott to vacate his house due to the fact that he had paid no board for several weeks. Scott resumed, and it was necessary to call in the police. Scott was advised by Magistrate O'Neil to leave the home as soon as he could find another room. When Scott refused to promise that he would seek another abode the Magistrate fined him $25 and committed him to jail in default.

The man that has nothing is not wanted. It is said that a white man wanted to borrow five cents to pay his fare on the ferry. The man from whom he wished to get the money told the borrower that a white man who had no money was as well off on one side of the river as the other, and the loan was refused; so it is with us, if we have nothing we are as well off in Baltimore as we would be any where else. We must demonstrate our ability to get something then when we get money and property and can keep them we will be in demand. Warner McGuinn Suggestion to President Coolidge that he name Warner T. McGuinn dean of the Baltimore bar, as the next recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia meets the best approval of those who have followed Maryland politics for the past quarter of a century. that, since 1891, he has been a practicing attorney in Baltimore and in civil as well as criminal cases has made a record which few have equalled and In every election, Republican leaders have availed themselves directly or indirectly of his knowledge of the great game of politics. But when the votes were the outcome of the election won the attitude of the sum of rewards bestowed, while others lessened and with smaller claims have been permitted to serve the state and the nation as federal appointee. It has been the treatment of Mr. McGillian and others like him whose word and influence have been valuable to the party which has done more than anything else to bring employment, think of voters in this state. Maryland with 40 per cent of its G. O. P. voters colored, registers hardly one per cent in federal patronage. What wonder it is that Congressman John Phillip Hill in recommending Mr. McGullin's appointment, said: "Maryland has not received recognition nationally." In review of the coming campaign, I think that we need help in Maryland. Mr. Hill, who is a candidate for the U. S. Senate is frank enough to make this admission. National Committee Senator Joseph I. France, who know political conditions in this state, back him up. Dr. France would still be a U. S. Senator today, but he while in office put an equitable solution of the patronage question. Perhaps Mr. Hill will succeed where Mr. France failed. [for] Nearly two years ago, December 19, 2024, the AFRO-AMERICAN called attention of Mr. Jackson, Senator O. E. Weller and Mr. Galen Tatt to the situation. We suggest the appointment of a deputy U. S. Senator to represent U. S. attorney. Nothing came of it. Senator Weller suggested to the president that he name Mr. Wm. L. Pitzerger as recorder of deeds for District of Columbia. Nothing came of it. The difficulty seems to be that the present incumbent, Mr. Arthur Murray, has test Virginia, a colorado attorney and a law firm, satisfactory service. Under the organization plan adopted sometime ago, it is believed Mr. Freezes under civil service and an office of the state. Outside of Maryland political leaders admit that Maryland ought o have national recognition, but do not see the sense of an office to make room for another. They claim, with some justice, that Maryland should ask a place in the Treasury, the Department of Interior, or an under-secrecy of state. **RO" Stands For** men and firemen. county and State Board of Education. k for school teachers without regard.

The Volstead issue won't be politicized, the Democrats won't be a settlement of the patronage question might. Eleven governors of southern states gave out the startling information recently that their colored citizens could vote if they compiled their state laws. They said that colored people disfranchised themselves thru failure to meet the property" or literary tests. Governor Walker of Georgia was among the number who said his state does not disfranchise the Negro voter. Governor Walker: If Negroes comply with the laws, they can vote. The governor indicated that all colored citizens of ordinary intelligence who can qualify under the state laws can safely walk into the polling booth in Georgia and vote. Commenting upon this statement of Governor Walker's the AFRO-AMERICAN said three weeks ago: "In Georgia Negroes may not vote in the state legislature and party leaders legally or illegally bar Negroes from the polls. In this sense they constitute a lawless element, but what white Southern is not laissez-faire on the sub- To back up the AFRO's view, Mr. Julian Harris in last Thursdays Columbus, Ga. Inquire-Sun, said, "If any people in the world should be fair and just to the Negro it is the white people. We want them to minister them. The Negro has nothing to do with these matters. He is not so much as permitted to vote on any question, unless he can do certain conditions and qualifications, and comparatively few of them can do so under our alliance. In the States; whereas an illiterate white man whose grandfather fought in the Civil war can witness obviously, must take what is given him. I he protests too much he may make conditions even worse for himself." He now has a new type of Southerner. For example, his paper capitalizes the word NEGRO, but he adds—"The South always has always will be governed white." Governor Walker says colored folk can vote with safety all along. He says they are few and if they protest too much they will make matter: worse for themselves. Now, what we want to know is who is right? Do You Swear? If you do, you'll be interested in this. A certain man named Jesus was arrested in Jerusalem sometime ago charged with treason and conspiracy. One of his followers, a certain Peter escaped arrest with his master, but followed the crowd to the police station where one of the mobs told Peter she had seen him with Jesus, and he repiled he had no idea what she was talking about. Soon after a second male recognized him. Peter not only denied knowing Jesus, but did it with an arm. Then several in the crowd pointed out Peter as an accomplice of Jesus and an alleged fellow criminal conspiring to overthrow the existing order. Peter nursed him and kept him not the man." Roman police not sure of their man-made no arrests. When a man curses and swears, he is, covering something. Maybe his own curse is covering up his weakness. A lie was not enough. A lie and an oath weren't either, but when he cursed and in swore in addition, they let him alone, and they could not prove it. Besides, a coward and a liar are never dangerous. The fellow Jesus was of a different type. Funny those Jesus wanted a quiet man like him. Jesus wanted not with a bluster like Peter get off. But Peter. Peter didn't fool anybody with his curses and his oaths, not even himself. "And Peter remembered the word of Jesus which said before the cock crow, though he out and wept-betterly." Matthew xxvi. 74.

Forum Can Hardly Wait For Paper To Como To the Editor: I must renew my subscription. I cannot do without reading the AFRO, for there is so much news in it that I cannot read it. My papers do not give. I can hardly wait from week to week for this paper to come. Mrs. Jennie Davis, Gettysburg, Pa. This writer Thinks Teacher Training School Entrance Requirements To the Editor: For a number of years it has been the custom for students graduating to enter the Teacher's Training School if they had aspirations and abilties to teach in the elementary schools. It was in September, 1909 that the Colored Teachers' Training School and Colored High School were made separate institutions, but in 1901 the first two members of the school board were placed on the eligible list. From time on the classes steadily increased until in June, 1924, 94 students, the largest class in the history of the institution was graduated. The eligible list had now reached such a height, officials began to question what must be done. The supply was so much greater than the demand for training musk, beard—and the underlying current was to discourage as far as possible a large enrolment. This was met by passing a rule admitting only students to enter the training school. The enrolment rate was 75 per cent for the senior years of their high school work. Within the past five years many changes have been wrought either by subtraction or addition. The merging of names from the list after a given time are some of the changes made. Now comes the question. Isn't there some way in which a person, quite desirable as a student, be made to work? The making of an A-1 teacher, but who has not attained the required average at the High School to enter normal school may in some way raise her average and thus be able to come into the training school? There should be some way that such a person could take an amiliation to raise his resent year average—could repeat some work or employment and be rated accordingly. Many applicants are just on the border line, a few tenths short of the mark, still others, it has been found out, do not know that they need a certain average score, and are not rewarded toward that end and are consequently much disappointed to be refused admission. Couldn't some provision be made that student might not be left out in the cold, so to speak? Means is at least quo some consideration. TEACHER. (From Columbus, Ga. Enquirer-Sun) "Time was" says the Syracusea (Ala.) News, "and not very long ago when there were very few white men in convict camps, now they are as common as Negroes and almost as numerous. Are the Negroes getting better, or our white friends? This is an interesting question. We are unable to give the correct answer. Probably, however, it would be true to say that the Negroes are, showing award ward imminent, while the whites have been letting the law less lenient toward them. Had it it is also true that in proportion to their opportunity, the Negroes of the country are making greater forward strides than the whites. Community news of the Syracusea News, the Montgomery Advertiser says: "Assuming that the News' premises are correct, we suggest this as the explanation for the disproportionate number of children are more disposed to chop away and let the chips fall where they may. It makes a good deal less difference to them than to the children in the black or white. They still fall to convict a good many people who are generally believed to be guilty, but the person responsible for the jury is quits as likely to be black as white. The white man has fewer special privileges in the court room today than at any time since Appointment Day. He is heard in recent years his fellow jurors say as they retired to their chambers to pass upon the fate of the Negro in the trial. Let's see special paints to be fair to him?" There may be something in the suggestion of the Advertiser. Certainly there should be no need to distinguish white from black, nor yellow from red, but all colors should be regarded as identical and treated similarly. The bar of the courts for ral for crimes committed. Atlanta Barbers Atlanta Barbers (Frank Shipman in Nation) The recent editorial on The Rising Tide of Prejudice interested me partly for its grave subject and partly because I was initially a citizen. My action was the Common Council's attempt to put Atlanta Negro barbers out of business was correct so far as it went and sufficiently disturbing inasmuch as so far the unpleasant facts could not be denied but only the first chapter in the story. Following the hostile vote of the common council came chapter 2 protests from the city Chamber of Commerce, the Council of Commerce, the Chapter 3 was consideration by the common Chapter 4 was a revised ordinance, not forbidding white men to visit Negro barber shops but forbidding white women to do so and white children under fourteen So far as women are concerned, the amended ordinance is only a gesture, since they do not go to Negro barber shop. Chapter 6, the Commerce's decision to support a test of the ordinance by injunction. Chapter 6, the Latest chapter published, is an offer by three of the best law firms in the state to take the cost, quality of the ordinance, free of cost, at trial. RECOVERED CONSTITUTION TOLD YOU GO WHITE ENEMIES VETERANS HOSPITAL THOE B. WILSON DAY BY DAY Two letters coming to the department of Business and Industry of this paper this week ought to interest you. One them is from a man who asks what is the best method to save all of the healthy chicks hatched in his incubator.

In whom shall we refer the letter asking for advice about raising successfully all human beings. We have gone a little further than we can man with human beings. Propoganda and protest: is still an effective factor in the dynamics of public sentiment. The attacks strikes some vital spot is better. Last week 1000 earnest men and women paraded and picketed in the streets about deserved punishment of an alleged criminal policeman. About the only things men who warn chars in city halls叫声 their votes, be them every day. Some time ago a committee of earnest colored men asked Mayne Jackson to help a colored man to the school board. He forgot to do so, and he was thinking of appointing a Catholhe. But Catholhe, now are ARE ORGANIZED. Income tax records will show that 74 men in this country have incomes of $1,000,000 or more per year. They ought to get along very well on that. Of course the Government cuts a slice of it off but they can have the consolation of knowing that they have $2,739 every hour they are $342 to the good or that every minute they can take $5.70 to the bank or drop 90 cents into their till every time the clock ticks of a second. If there are 70 such men, we have a sneaking suspicion now where some of the money we do not get, goes. Why not let any man get all the money he has the ability and prowess to get, you ask. Most of them do. Even the bitterness someone else might like. If you want to get'a picture of the probable economic condition of the American Negro 50 years hence, you a look at the working man in England. There are millions out of work and men fight for jobs paying alient of $2 per week, alient of $2 per week, out of the fact that much of her industry is dependent upon other countries for both raw material and market. Two million milestones grind, they grind hard. Negro tenants are leaving the farms of the South where they work. MODITY OF LAND and flocking to the cities where they may own only WAGES. However prosperous we might be, we cannot not safe unless we OWN ENOUGH LAND TO PRODUCE. SUFFICIENT WEALTH TO KEEP THE PROVIDE SUSTAINED AND A MARGIN OF SAVINGS. Some of the young economists coming from our schools might give this problem some thought You of course expected that as soon as it was certain that the Honorable Marcus Garvey would never be permitted to lead his hosts again in America, lieutenant Colonel Sparks of what was once good pickings. From prison walls, however, the voice of Garvey spoke with a sufficient volume to place his partisan Fred A. Foote, in the saddle. All of this will interest U.N.A. If followers much and the general public Sounding Brass $1,000,000 Income Per Year And Independence The Weakness Of Leadership William L. Sherrel, however, who controls the New York unit of the organization, is with the opposition and the new York unit is the Garveyism group. But the falling out of Garveyism is not the real tragedy of Garveyism. That tragedy lies deeper and is the outstanding weakness of the race. THAT TRACEDY GROWS OUT OF CHILD MARRIED OBJECTIVES OF LEADERSHIP AS TO MAKE MASS ACTION OF THE GROUP IMPOSSIBLE. Garvey was a charitarian, pernicious and poisonous individual with skills of opportunism, but it would have been far better that this movement had lived, even then it did not represent the forces of the momentum of 1,000,000 ORGANIZED men and women to have been dissipated. THAT DISSIPATION WAS THE REAL TRACEDY. Don't fool yourself that long-distance campaigns of the race did not realize this and get the government behind a movement to destroy, NOT GARVEY, but the threat of 100,000 or more women. The United States Government under the Harding administration into the financial welfare of the Negro group. Men within and without the race have robbed poor deluded working men and women before without so much as getting a peep into a federal prison. Down in the southland this same administration looked on while粉色 drove farm equipment out of millions, but cheated also out of the fundamental rights of American citizenship with which to protect themselves. You will also remember that men caught red handed with their hands in the people's till without going to prison. Garvey's getting together a million and attending attention, BUT his GETTING TOGETHER A MILLION MEN AND WOMEN WHO MIGHT ACT IN MASS, VOTE OR FOLLOW HIM, well that was a real danger. Where Unity Would Count Here then is where the real weakness of leadership shows its head. Any mass movement in the group has always had a traction because it is formidable a movement in opposition. Big capitans of industry whose interest lies in keeping intact a submerged industrial group in this country will see to that. It is safe to say that at this time man with large enough bank account to buy enough Negro leadership to drive a wedge in any industrial, religious, educational or such mass movement and such an effort to kill in time. BOOK CHAT By MARY WHITE-OVINGTON Chairman, Board of Directors of the N. A. A. C. P. "BETWEEN BLACK AND WHITE" By the Rev. Henry Hugh Proctor. Published by The Pilgrim Press, 19 South La Salle Street, Chicago, Ill, Price $1.00 postpaid. In connection with the study of the training of the Negro ministry it is pleasant to read this story that the Rev. Mr. Proctor has written of his own life. Here is a successful clergyman who has had the same thorough training that would have been his had he been white, first Fisk University and then Yale Theological School. Mr. Proctor must have made a considerable sacrifice when he turned-from North to South and went to Atlanta for his first large pastorate. Here he carried on successfully an institutional church, a new undertaking at that time in the Negro world, and one still far from usual. He left Atlanta at the instance of a group of Brooklyn clergymen, among them the Reverend S. Parks Cadman, and is at present pastor of a congregational church in Brooklyn. The book is in part a collection of essays and articles and the central part is the best and one enjoys hearing of the little colored child who loves the two-too-broken cabin stood. "The corn field was my gymnastism the night the stars of sky's moving picture. I had plain food, plenty of sleep, and an abundance for which I have ever grateful." "Between Black and White" is owlistic, like Gippa's philosophy that "All's right with the world." Heard and Seen In Baltimore We were strollin down Drudg Hill Avenue the other day and stopped to have a chat with like Dixon when two third a piano players came along and engaged in the following conversation: "Hello, oopsocks, how do you fool me on morning?" Just like a piano, big boy, just Just like a piano, big boy, just like a piano." "How's dat?" "Grand." "You remind me more of a steam calliope." "Why so?" "You're full of hot air." "What instrument do you think I resemble most?" "The violin." "The thing in the way you've been trying to string me all morning?" "But frankly speaking I think you would make a good lyre." "What did you do before you studied the piano?" "I was an actor but the audience threw eggs at me." "That was a pretty good combination." "What do you mean?" "A ham and some eggs." "When did you get the idea that you were not the worst piano player in the world?" "Right after I heard you." "But laying all jokes aside what do you think of my execution." "I'm in favor of it." "You are so dumb about music you think they serve a Hungarian rhapsody in a Greek restaurant." "Yes, but that wasn't as bad as when you tried to buy a trombone in a butcher shop." "And didn't I hear you tell the man that it would be easy for you to master the bass music because you had a heavy voice?" "What did you tell that Radio announcer when he said he wanted you to go on the air tonight?" "Told him I didn't know a thing about aeroplanes." "How long have you been a musician?" "All my life; why when I was just two weeks old I used to play on my girl." "Have you ever gotten any real money out of music?" "Yes, I pawned a saxaphone once." "Speaking of saxaphones, I played solo and the audience went wild." "Did they catch you?" "What is your favorite song?" "Yes, we have no bananas." "What is so striking about that?" "Oh, nothing, other than it has ap-peal." "Have you heard the greatest artist in the world?" "No, I always stuff cotton in my cars when I play." "Is it true that women only love good musicians?" "I must be, I see you are still single." "My girl was out with one last night and I shot at the man but missed." "That was lucky." "Well, just suppose you had struck me?" "Well, good by, old boy, time is too precious to be wasting talking to humans." "Dont make any apologies. I don't regret these few minutes with you."

Mrs. Terrell in Des Moines The Dsg Moines Tribune of March 18 carries the following significant editorial invitation: "Mrs. Mary Church Terrell is probably the outstanding colored woman first colored woman to serve on a board of education in this country. She was the only one of the American delegates that a She was the woman in Berlin some years ago who addressed the convention in German. "Nothing could happen better for Des Moines than a thousand intelligent women to go to the church-to-night and listen to a colored woman, with some thought for the race tittitude of this great conglomerate of women. I recall speaking to an article." Newspaper Best Medium The Negro newspaper is the best medium through which the white man can get the low down on the Negro soul. Here the Negro is speaking to the Negro. It is intimately daily for the white reader. What a writer has to say expresses his re feeling, however wise or foolish that may be. Using my literary experience, have written for practically every form of publication prescribed by white publishers' opinion. In dealing with the race problem, there are more Red canons and determined attitudes. The Negro writer must conform these standards or have his man write a regretful article. I recall sending an article. My advises are that Mrs. Terrell received a royal reception from both races in comparable numbers during the Western section of influence and power. Races Lack Contact I regard this incident as significant mainly because it brings to attention the growing lack of relationship between the two races, especially in the eastern section of the country. In the past, the races gained close up acquaintance with each other by frequent attendance upon each other, which changed, in their regular, normal procedure, the races conduct their affairs separate and apart. There is no intermingling of races or special gatherings, the black hand does not know what the white hand dooth: nor does the white hand concern itself about the doings of the I doubt whether a dozen Negroes will attend white churches in Washington next Sunday, nor will half a dozen whites attend. At one time white people attended Negro gatherings, and Negroes white gatherings, as a part of the regular order of things. It is now practically impossible to present a common meeting of the races on any question of public concern, however vital. In the good old days of political prosperity, all public meetings were arranged at all good times. But by the years, I am told that headquarters sends down the word that under no circumstances are Negro speakers to address white audiences. Procedure Artificial People become acquainted in the ordinary, every day, normal relationships. Where such intermingling is wanting, genuine understanding is When a single, elected Negro addresses a white audience, the stage is set, the attentive to him is the speaker, in the other hand, is always on his good behavior. He is more concerned with the impression which his utterances have on the audience than with the gentleness of his own thoughts and feelings. The white world will never get the Negro by such representation. When the two races come together in a negotiatory capacity, through selected representatives of the two groups, the prosecution is not to be artificial rather, genuine. Uttterances Discounted On the other hand when the white man comes by himself to a Negro group his utterances must be greatly enlarged, his colored heavens by some unearned compliment to the race, and by indulgence in flamboyant utterances of questionable gentleness and sincerity. The late George W. Lee, of Washington, was one of the greatest original humilisers of modern times. With his humility, he was one of the most famous. On one occasion he was chosen presiding officer of the Baptist Convention in one of the Southern States. The address of welcome was delivered in a sageSONO, denonation than the governor himself. His excellence out did himself on this occasion. He declared that in his capacity as governor of South Carolina, he did not citizen by his color but that all received equal treatment at his hands. At the conclusion of the address the convention was called to the floor. Although every man knew that the governor was indulging in mere rhetorical extravaganza, yet their enthusiasm knew no bound. The Negro is generally gullible under the spell of the white man's eloquence. But when, the time came for Dr. Lee to make reply, he began by saying, "The gospel and he often-entered his pulpit dependent upon the Holy Ghost to direct him what to say. He frequently found that when the Holy Ghost appeared, he said, "I say a great many things which he could not live up to when the Holy Ghost left him. He felt, he declared, that the goodness he savengt beyond his own power of control by the inspiration of the occasion, and very much feared that his excellency would not be able to carry out his assertions when the spirit of the moment has departed from him. Again the convention was in an uproar, but this time they caught the attention of the governor, even the governor was forced to congratulate upon his quick, keen pointed and apposite repartee. A Negro writing for white publications or speaking before white audiences are prone to say the things which other whites rather present the present normal workings of his mind. Often he may go to the opposite extreme and aim to be caustic and exasperating to the white audience. He deems to be unpleasant and unpalatable truth. Such presentation will always fall of effectiveness. If you force a man to hear what he is not hearing, he will not merely planting seed in stones ground. I might as well stop here and utter a word of caution to the new school of Negro writers, who are setting forth the soul of the black man to be cautioned, not almighty to depict the Negro as the white public wants to see him. But paint him as he is. All genuine art must be essentially true. It is fatuous, from an alien perspective, from an alien's perspective, from the black man's vanity as it is to fawn to the white man's conceit. Races Lack Contact Breach Widening Proceedure Artificial Utterances Discounted When The Spirit Leaves Effects Journalism Newspaper Best Medium The Negro newspaper: is the best medium through which the white man can get the low down on the Negro society and the Negro. It is not intended especially for the white reader. What the writer has to say expresses his real feeling, however wise or foolish that man. During my literary experience, I have written for practically every form of publication prescribed by white publishers' opinion. In dealing with the race problem, there are more or less fixed canons and determined attitudes. The Negro writer must conform to these standards or have his manuscript returned with a polite missile of regrets. The recall sending an article to the editor was good enough to comment the treatment in highest terms for both form and substance, but advised me that it did not quite conform to the attitude of his readers. In the same document to an English magazine which accepted it with avidity. White Man's Soul The Negro has the white man at a disadvantage when it comes to the interpretation of racial soul. The Negro is often in thought and polite has absolutely no reference to the Negro. When we study the main body of literature and other forms of expression, we catch the race question. There is nothing hidden that cannot be revealed. It is only when it comes to the race question that the white man active, timid and disingenuous. If each of them is not in contact with each other, it must be when they are off guard. Each is seeking to hide something from the other. I have seen a man of of his discourse, on detection that there were white auditors in his audience. Rarely will a white man deliver the same address on a Negro before audiences of the two races. Mrs. Terrell went to Des Moines to address The Mary Church Terrell Club, composed of women of her own race. The Negro is a white people to come out in hundreds to hear what a distinguished colored woman had to say to her own race. The Negro would get peep down into the soul. I would like to see white people, in their usual course of things, attend Inter Church meetings, not for the curiosity but for the pleasure, not for the curiosity, should also like to see Negroes attend white gatherings for the same reason. Inter Church Movement The interchurch movement during interracial week instituted the idea of having the white and Negro preach to each other, the interracial would be only a matter of interracial with very little bearing upon interracial acquaintance. With the Negro and the white preacher and the circumstance would labor under such heavy restraint of caution and courtesy that his utterances would carry little genius. In the description of the flamboyant government they would be so far swept from their normal mood by the impulse of the occasion that they could not live up to the imparted impulse had departed. It would be infinitely better if there could be an interchurch of auditors in large numbers, a lack of awareness on part of the movement.

What had he galmed? Death, scorn, and the hatred of the world, Jesus, though. Brother Washington was now painting a picture of the New Jerusalem, that land of milk, honey and rest. Suppose Jesus would gain the easier life—wouldn't he be like Judas in her heart? The girl and boy remained silent during the remainder of the walk. Across the clearing came the dismal croaking of a bull-frog, the doleful creature, whose willow footed toward Linda. She realized how it was, almost time for church, yet she did not move. "Vut doth hit profit or man that own soul?" quoted Brother Wash- The five succeeding nights passed in swift panorama before the indies' hands. Steve could not help Steve. She could not let Steve go even for Jesus: surely Jesus would help her soften Steve's obdurate heart. "People don't doubt talking now just yesterday her mother had said, 'It doun strike me ee right fer er galw alt haz stood up and not be prayed gaddin' once he'd signalled man." The words thus uttered fell like death knells on the distraught girl. What had Jesus done to her in Linda's place? Think as hard as she would, Linda could not -remember any account of Jesus having left the unpleasant room. She was so upset as Steve offered her. If she weren't like Jesus, she would undoubtedly be like Judas. Oh, she could not be like Jesus. She did not want to fall that low. Rachel was in no way opposed to the match between Linda and Steve, rather she approved, but life long habit was strong upon her, therefore, she found fault. Her tered her mind the Linda would pay the least amount to her, none of her children ever did, but Lin- "Come, all ye sof'ened uns, all ye 'pentant sinnahs, come ter de th'one oh Gawd," chanted the revivalist, "de way'ez lowly an" de path am th'ony, be dere ez er crown ob life ebah lastin' at de end." God away off in the fair country since everything else was better. She was young, only eighteen. God could wait, he would marry Steve. He would blimp. Brother Washington looked toward the corner where the Sunday school class was entreated. Her lace ceased to hesitate. Her way was clear—she could not refuse to accept her God, she could never leave and cross the land of promise. She could not land of promise. She would try to be like Jesus in her heart. This annoying problem settled, the girl now stumbled rapidly across the brown cornfield until she reached the rough log house. Nothing troubled Linda; nothingpty—the path was straight and shining before her. Even Rachel's grumbling, a trifle louder, and unseen, unqualified, failed to pene- Weeping and stumbling. Linda arose and gropingly felt her way to the mourners' bench, that thorny pathway to the throne of God. The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly Weckly Lessons In English By W. L.

"I'll come after you if you don't let the geranium pot touch me." "Powers putty," answered Albert, "pot shaky." The child began to sway the flower-pot back and forth, laughing with glee. But suddenly, bang! the flower-pot fell into the floor. Albert, in the act of pushing the geranium pot towards the outer edge of the hustlebrade, gave a childish start and removed his childish head. And he flower-pot toppled from its unusually sharp, and lay upon the ground brook, into bits. "Albert!" exclaimed Mrs. Harris. "I told you I would whip you if I didn't leave that flower-pot naughty."

Mrs. Harris rocked back and forth, displeasure written upon her face — her hands resting harmlessly in her lap. Albert's father came home at six, and found his three-year-old son still toying with the pieces of flower-pot. The mother still sat in the porch chair, her heart full of unhappiness.

Afr When we peruse the newspapers these days, and note with astonishment, the accomplishments of man along every line, and more particularly the scientific achievements of man, are living in this age, at this particular time, fully convinced that the world is full of great potential. That Father Time “will not be successful in leaving his traces on the human body,” no doubt of us who read of the suit, instituted by Lady Diana Manor have been smiling and doubling the siness of the mind of a person who would more expilet to seek a Face Lifting operation, very happy to say the skill of the surgeon in this specific line, has been crowded, sagged muscles, hooked nose, thick lips, in fact most any defect of the face can be corrected and satisfactory results. Yes, with joy we learn there are smiles and dimples, in our well as a cupid’s bow mouth made for us. I am sure all will be men, it is good to be here, in this age. Men and women, need not repile, if men and women, need not repile, or beautiful face; neither do they have to use cosmetic disguises; just pay for the desirable features of beauty for keeps. Those of us who have seen the play in which the royal lady is the dominant character, will agree that to secure a smile such as she wears, we will gladly stand a knife, or a needle. But there is another way to cultivate a winsome smile; reflect upon some happening that has been pleasing and joyous to you, stand before your mirror, watch your face, notice the smile that fits across, and the light that comes into your eyes; practice this expression continuously, and in a short while, your countenance will be so litup, that your sweet smile will be the comment of all who know you. WRINKLES—Like cotton umbrellas are hard to loose. "They are footprints we have let trouble make"; they are the records of our emotions. They are the index of our thoughts. They take away our youth. They advertise our character. They are caused by starved skin, bad health, eye strain, worry. A wrinkle caught in time, saves nine, begin now. A wonderful word; the three letters rearranged mean successful eradication of a wrinkle; for instance, move the "n" behind the "w" and it will spell "own" (the wrinkles of your face) place the "o" between the "n" and the "w" and you will have "won", because you have taken the wrinkle in time, thus retaining your youth.

With the start of the marathon set for 2:30 on Saturday afternoon 53 young runners are waiting for the bark of the starter's gun which will send them on the long grind from the Dunbar School to the final tape at the Community House. There is much speculation among the followers of the strenuous sport as to the ability of John Carroll to retain his title. While word has been passed around that the sterling distance man is not in good condition, that he has never been better prepared for the strain of a long race. Speculation Rife. From Lincoln comes word that one of its runners will force the winner to a new record while Watty of the Drudg HILL "Y" persists in saying that his team will furnish both the individual and the team winner. The final detail for the race was worked out on Saturday evening when William Wright, clerk of the checkers for the entire route. The piacing of these checkers will not be announced but every man on the course will be checked of the checking lists as he passes along the course. These lists will be submitted to the judges immediately after the course, and the judges do not appear on every list will be awarded a prize. Runners will wear numbers on the breast and on the back so that they do not chance of not being checked. Pendleton BrotLers Numbers one, two, and three will be worn by Carroll, Lée and Moody, winners of last year's race. This will make them marked men throughout the long grind. Among the runners entered by Howard University are the two Pendleton brothers of Baltimore. Both of them finished in the first ten last year. The judges for the race will meet immediately after the race at the Community House and will review the race results. These lists and the finishing position the prizes will be awarded. The awards will take place from the stages of the Royal and Regent races during the evening's performance. Police Protection Before the race every boy will be given an examination to determine his ability to stand the long test. All contestants will be at the door 2:30 pm when the race will get under way at 2:30. Full police protection will be accorded along the route. No parking will be allowed on one side of the street. Full traffic along the route will be allowed during the course of the race. At least 100 patrolmen and motor police will be assigned by General Gaither to supervise the race and no traffic delays will be encountered during the time given to beat the time made by Carroll last year. The time for last year's grind was 21 minutes, 39 4-5 seconds. The team played the year but with the larger and better field this year and the offer of a cup by Murse Calloway for a new season, expected that the winner will offer several seconds off Carroll's time. Sixteen organizations are entered, and the team teams a three or more. The team is running for the Grace Boys' Club. · Find Body In Harbor The 'body of an unknown man was discovered floating in the harbor by members of the crew of the Police Patrol Boat Lannon, Sunday.
