Bessie Coleman, daring and accomplished aviatrix, was instantly killed when losing control of her plane, it turned over two thousand feet in the air. She, together with D. W. Willis, white, her publicity director, were dashed to death while making a practices flight preparatory to the exhibition she was to hold here Saturday, under the auspices of the Negro Welfare League of this city. Crashing into a tree in a nose dive, the plane turned turtle after Willis had made a last desperate effort to make a safe landing on plowed ground. Miss Coleman fell from the plane as it turned a mild-air somersault about 1,000 feet from the earth in its fall. Her horribly mutilated body was found almost a mile from where the plane hit the ground. A wrench slipping into the control gears of the plane caused her Spectators watching the airplane from a distance said it suddenly fell, spinning, for a moment, and then Wills is said to have looked over the side of the plane a short time before it crashed. colored folk here believe whitesdit something to the plane. Others believe Wills responsible. For Miss Coleman's death and that he would have saved, himself had it not happened, she tried to get an airplane here from local people but they would not let a colored flier have one, so Wills flew the one destroyer that had been assigned hours. It was the property of the Curtis Airplane and Motor Company. John T. Betsch of the Jacksonville Negra Airplane commanded the two to the field, struck a match to light a cigar shortly after the plane fell and the gasoline was ignited, summing up. Betsch was dismissed by police. Miss Coleman was known internationally for her skill and daring as a flyer. She had won her pilot's award and could fly after failing to gain the opportunity in her own country. After obtaining her license, however, she had returned to America, where she had been in demand for exhibition flying. Miss Coleman, who was twenty-four years of age, was a native of Texas, but went to Chicago to be a manicurist, a manicurist, working along Chicago's famous stroll. It was while engaged at this service that she met a manicurist, possible for her to pursue her studies in aviation, subsequent to the world war. The fatal accident Friday was that Miss Coleman was that Miss Coleman had encountered. Three years ago her plane toppled during exhibition in Los Angeles and she was picked up from the airport in Chicago, thus a last trip. Friends at that time and ever since cautioned her against her dangerous avocation, but she persisted and promised to visit. That last trip after a few exhibitions she was going to give up flying and confine herself to lecturing. She had been married her husband, a man by the name of Glenn, now lives and works in Chicago. She is also survived by a mother and a sister, Miss Georgia Coleman, who also-resides in Chicago. Preparations were made immediately following her death for the impatient where the funeral will be held. So far as is known there is no other colored avatrix. No Color Line At Pratt Inst.

Sweet with 11 others is charged with the slaying of Leon E. Brien- white, white, during a race riot in dr. Ossius H. Sweet's home in September of last year. Dr. Sweet had recently moved in to the neighborhood and whites objected to his presence. The trial is being heard before Judge Frank Murphy and a jury in the Record- Darrows' assertion which startled a court room and made it gag, came during an argument when the state object cross examined a state witness concerning a meeting of the Water Work Park Improvement. Association two months prior to the shooting of Brener. He asked them of what anything about colored people?" Object To Hearsay Lester S. Moll, assistant prosecuting attorney, who, with assistance of the attorney, is conducting the prosecution, immediately raised an objection to the question on the grounds that such testimony was hearsay. Question: What that have been of many witnesses, only one witness, Andrew, claimed that an inflammatory speech was made at that meeting." Moll said. The Andrew mentioned that he was with the team by the garage avenue, a member of the association. He testified Saturday concerning the meeting held in July. Andrew, with the team by the speaker and took the position that the speaker was too rabid," Moll said. "If he disagreed, then, isn't it fair to assume that from that time on, the meeting disagreed with those views at the time of the shooting?" There is an absence of testimony that any, of those persons at the meeting participated in any attack on the team. Ridicules Theory Moll charged that it was ridiculous to "attempt to show the man the crowd to such an extent" that members of the crowd carried that anger two months later. "There is a secret effect of the fear," Darrow said of the defense and the State. "Darrow said in reply, 'I don't believe the State has put on one witness who was present at the shooting who told the truth, but I believe the police beating quibbling and lying.'

Dr. Pickens was commenting on the Gunney Park, N. Y., Training School for Christian Workers which had refused the application of Miss Carrie Bentley, 80, Chester Wilmington, N. C., on account of her, color. When Miss Hargrave first applied to the dean of the school, she was asked to photograph. Then she was advised to go to the National Baptist Institute which "would accept you as a student." Upon witness on this, Dr. Pickens said. "Now, in the name of 'Jesus Christ, I wish to ask: Why don't the pure food laws compel the those who are not so willing to their canned religion for what it is by printing the important word 'white', clearly and distinctly on their Horticulture and, on their goods, Herbarium and, on their pleasures, should not be perpetually, exposed to being double-crossed, embarrassed, sometimes burdened with the burden of religiously insulted by these prayer-making 'Christian sharkas.'" CULLEN REFUSES TO COMMENT Cambridge, Mass.—Countee Cullen, Harvard student and poet, barr. harvard.edu, wrote more than more, whither he had been hidden to make an address under the auspices of the City Club, white, refused to comment on the incident today. The hotel authorities excuse was that it did not permit colored men to stay in the hotel. The poet shook the dust of Baltimore off his feet that same day, and he was sent to the city and returned to New York. In declining to comment, he evidently told that this was the best situation that had embarrassed him.

Dr. Alexander who is secretary of the National Inter-racial Commission, created a interdenominational young people's conference here in which he urged the repeal of Jim crow car law, equal justice for the Negro in courts and equal educational facilities. He charged that whites in many sections of the South handled the school funds unfairly and do not equally what the majority of crime on the testimony of Negroes. Almost as soon as Dr. Alexander had finished speaking, he was called to the telephone by someone who declared himself a "friend." This friend, advised him that word had already gotten out in the city by the time he heard of racial equality and that he ought to get out of town at once. Rather dazed at first, Dr. Alexander sent to the police department as a personal guards. Instead of leaving that night, he went to his hotel where the police stood guard until the next morning and he left. Seen in Atlanta this week, Dr. Alexander seemed somewhat shaken by his experience in Birmingham and learned something new to design his work and that the press had misquoted him. Birmingham Methodist ministers last week went on record as adopt and launch condemnation of Dr. Alexander. A document was read before the ministers in which Dr. Alexander is re-quoted, saying that he was misquoted, by the press. This document, the ministers adopted the resolution.

He said: "On Friday, April 16, I introduced a bill to make participation in lynchings a Federal offense and to punish both individuals who join such mobs and officials who fail to take proper precautions to prevent "The failure of the Republican Party to carry out its platform pledge of 1924 for the enactment "at the earliest possible date of that Federal insurrection law that the government may be wielded to terminate this hideous crime," is one of the major crimes of omission on the part of the Coolidge administration, a majority in both houses of congress powerful enough to carry out every policy of the administration, including a tax bill that enables wealth to escape its share of the burdens of taxation; aistration sufficient presence to bear to have the promise made to the people in 1924, kept. That antilynching plank, like so many others, helped to keep the Negro vote in line long enough to enable the Republican party to extend that plank to serve its purpose. "I hope Congress 'will not adjourn until a genuine effort is made to enact a federal anti-lynching law.

SINCLAIR MARTYR TO EDUCATION AT HOWARD OUTCAST BY TRUSTEE BOARD Risked His Membership on the Board by Daring to Oppose Durkee. Dismissed As Trustee but Won a Higher Place in the Hearts of Howard Alumni Who Compare His Courage and Conviction With Other Trustees. By ALUMNUS One of the most loyal alumni has been laid to rest — Dr. William Sinclair, former trustee of Howard University, which institution he held until his death in the harness, a martyrity the cause of education and an outcast by an ungrateful board of trustees. In his effort to push a bill, known in H. R. 11112, which reduces the regiment of Howard trustees to a corporal's guard, and in other ways aims to make Howard University safe for education, this fighting force has formed its former colleagues the unfinished task of saving Howard University. Grand Old Man For a number of years, this grand old alumnus served as a trustee of Howard University. He discovered palpable weaknesses in the present administration, winked or blinked down at board meetings. He spoke his thought which was hostile to Dr. Durkee's administration, this rising the order of the board, and on the board). He was threatened with expulsion for not pulling in the traces. He was finally punished though not subdued, by not being by the self-create and machinery which alone creates and destroys. Hated Hypocrisy The lamented Dr. Sinclair, who hated hypocrisy as passionately as the loved real manhood, had the courage to attack theating polices and tactics of Dr. Moorland and the rest of that oligarchic coterie that have been running Howard University. He took the opportunity to they. They gave him a sympathetic ear, and the resignation of Dr. Durks followed as a logical sequence — the one act that has won favor for Dr. Durks with the Negro press and public. Dr. Stinlair's fight was two-fold — to remove Dr. Durkee from the presidency of Howard University, and to provide education. He lived to witness the resignation of Dr. Durkee. His sudden death imposes his second great objective upon the willing shoulders of all race loving Negroes. For the memory of the beloved Dr. Durkee, Howard University grins truly interested in the advancement of their race, persuade force, or shame the trustees of Howard University into appointing an president an outstanding scholar and standardize university professionalize the office to which he is elected. Too Honest The writer considers the members of the Nominating Committee too honest to deny that they have been considering seriously the appraisal of their own number. Publicity may have chilled their feet somewhat, but the danger has not been wholly averted. The calling in Washington is that if the trustees have to recede from their plan to elect Dr. Moorland, they will try to place him in office as acting president, waiting no doubt for the fog to clear, and then declare that he has borne his new honors so meekly and with dignity on the job. The writer has already pointed out the real reasons why Dr. Moorland should never be elected president of Howard University, or of any other university. To kee, the writer, that the writer should secure the trustees' point of view. Colored Ross First and foremost, Dr. Moorland has been, without contradiction, the colored "boss" of the board and this means a mouthful to a self-creating and perpetuating board. The coloration of the board, Dr. Wormley and Mr. Hawkings, both of whom are too young in the perpetual family to be accused, have looked to Dr. Moorland for guidance. As Jesse votes, so did the coloration of the board, reported as nodding to other colored members to give them the proper signal for action. The importance and influence of Dr. Moorland can hardly be questioned, the pilgrimage to New England and discovered Dr. Durkee in the serene and silent village of Campelo. It was he who was responsible for the election of Dr. Durkee. Secured Expert When the waters of administration became turbulent, and it became evident that Dr. Durkee would mount an excursion, it was this same Dr. Moorland who secured the services of the expert to right all wrongs at Howard University with the most thorough and most vicious report came the recommendation that Dr. Durkee go on a long hike around the country, telling the romantic tale of Howard University and that in his absence a viewer or observer he appointed to keep the campus fire burning. Neval Thomas So refreshing was the possibility of untangling Dr. Durkee from the machinery of administration that unsuspecting public, almost missed the plan. The ever alert, fearless, and unpurchasable Neval Thomas exposed the scheme of making this same Dr. Moorland vice-president, who became so indignant that a wrench was thrown into the machinery. No Active Trustee Alumnus gave the same warning then as he has given recently; to ensure that he must not elect an active trustee to any salaried position in the institution. No matter how upright the intent might be, the precedent is a had one to establish. There may develop a number of positions which a trustee out of work might like to fill. Once the practice of taking a classless trustee is established, a epolls system becomes hedtable. Unusual Strength The point is that Dr. Moorland has unusual strength on the board. His influence can do much to create a trustee, and it can do equally as much to destroy a trustee. When he is in charge, he will delegate for any administrative position, he can secure the indorsement by the same board-room nod. So far as the writer can learn, no one opposed his vice-president ambition. Had the press kept silent, the trustee would have remained president, with Dr. Moorland as vice-president. It is very obvious that the trustees will vote Dr. Moorland any office that he wants, and just now it looks as though the retired Y secretary has his eyes as high in the administrative atmosphere as the vision will carry. Durkee Grateful In the second place, Dr. Durkee has grateful memories of Dr. Moorland's idolatrous devotion to him. Dr. Durkee was brought from an a... The faculty of a great university which gave him an opportunity to creep into "Who's Who," a chance to preach to Presidents and cabinet members. He realized these opportunities as his biographical sketch in the Curry School organ attests. For these opportunities, Dr. Moorland has been responsible. More than this, Dr. Moorland has stood squared off against the matters insulting to the Negro race. His Influence Natural It is only natural, therefore, that Dr. Durkee will like to see his great benefactor, be awarded if he is selected. He himself is quoted as declaring that a white man will succeed him, but he is not sure of his influence if he retains any, to his good friend who has been placed upon the shaft by the Y. M. C. A. It is quite doubtful, however, if Dr. Durkee naming the successor. Of course, he should not, but the trustees are dangerous batters in a pinch. They are not so well run, so the fielders had better be playing deep fields. Tired Of Turmoil In the third place, there are actually some trustees who are tired of the turnover at Howard and beaten enough for a colored president. They have no large acquaintance with Negro educators, but have seen their colleague, Dr. Moorland, in action, and they consistently believe that a colored man in the country who can bring the proverbial order out of chaos, Dr. Jesse is the man. So far as we believe that if competent deans are on the job, the president will not even be required to get mixed up. In the machinery of education. The machine is blinded, but not ridiculed. If the trustees can be impressed with this thought that the president of a university does not need to have acquainted them, they themselves will show their lack of equipment for the trusts which they hold. Durkee's Ears So far as bringing peace to Howard University is concerned, of all the trustees, Dr. Moorland is the least likely to promote peace. In fact, he is the least likely to feel feelings between Dr. Durkee and certain professors. He has been one of the hundred ears of Dr. Durkee. He has never considered it above the dignity of a trustee to carry idle rumors to the president. He has made mischief when he should have been making peace. Threatened To Sue A former professor threatened to sue Dr. Moorland for taking gossip to Dr. Durkee and demanded that Dr. Moorland give, within a limited time, this information. Dr. Moorland complied immediately. Instead of holding a conference with the professor on the alleged remark, he fled to the president and unburdened his commitment by the professor forced this trustee into the open. It is this kind of perivial, backdoor, espionage business that must go from Howard University. There are village stuff, too much of this trading in gossip, too much of this hundred ears business. Two ears are enough for any successful administration prove upon nature's gift, he is going to land into trouble. It is not necessary to run Howard University with one hundred ears and one hundred eyes. A good heart, a trustful heart, and undifferentiated evolution are sufficient. Unfortunately, Dr. Moorland has been a party, and willing one at that to the policy which must be driven from Howard University. If you are a student at Howard University, he is most likely to grow a few extra appendages for himself. It ought not to be necessary for professors to walk about the campus gagged. They are very hard to get around. If they are fit to be professors, they are sure to express such opinions. If a pimp comes along and plucks up a harmless remark, distorts it, and passes it along, it may be a good punishment. If the president's car gives, if he has a receptive car for gossip. The writer wishes to insist that there can be no appreciable gain in driving Durkeeism from Howard University for an audience in substance. Dr. Moorland has been too close to the administration, to guarantee a change from the conditions that caused the trouble at Howard University. Even if he were educated to work job, this collection should har him. It is strange how queerly t he average colored person regards the administration of educational institutions that anybody can run one. Usually the only qualification that he demands is that of popularity. A good hand-shaker is often his ideal. Friend-inking fitness for administrative berths, and well-olled tongues are pretty sure to impress. Reckless Drivers It is seldom that a person is willing to trust his children in an automobile with an unpracticed person, or to trust his children in an charge of a motorman who has never been instructed to run a car. It is inconceivable that any sane person would trust his children in a row-boat with a person ignorant of the job. But the same person is very likely to send his children to educational institutions under the leadership of persons who have not had the least interest in the job. Machinery The most intricate piece of machinery, as well as the most expensive, is the educational machinery. Like all artisans, the university president has to learn his job, but he must also be successful in plant as Howard University. It is absolutely impossible for a person who devolves of training-and-experience in running an educational organization to succeed. Similarly, experience in other organizations may give a cer- EDUCATION JUSTEE BOARD pose Durkee. Dismissed oward Alumni Who Com- s. ER WARD PEANUTS MAKE VA.

Special music was tain insight into the general policies of administration, but success is based on knowledge, experience, and ability. Experience Lacking There are no features of the secretariality of the Y. M. C. A. that could possibly fit Dr. Moorland for the president of the University. He might transfer his talent over to the Urban League activities, or inter-racial activities, but his experience in no way fits him for a presidency of the University, so he must recognize his limitations and side-track his ambition. No College Education No College Education It appears that Dr. Moorland does not even know college work from observation and experience, inasmuch as he has enjoyed a job in education. Often men and women trained in the best organized colleges have some ideas of standards, procedures, and customs through residence in these institutions, acquaintance with college life is a misfit at the head of a big university. The writer insists that a university in these days must have at its disposal a large number of are purely churchmen should look for a career in the church, the Y. M. C.

C. — One resolution having been reported unfavorably, Representative Jerry Busby, Democrat, of Mississippi, last Thursday, introduced in the House two resolutions calling for a transmittal of reports of investigations in connection with the handling of patronage in his State. One resolution calls upon the Attorney General to transmit the report of two agents of the Department lustee who made an investigation into charges relating to patronage abuses in Mississippi. The other calls upon the Postmaster General to transmit the report of two agents who made a similar investigation. This is Mr. Busby's second attempt to have these reports transmitted to the Missouri State University introduced by him on March 9, last, was reported unfavorably by the House Judiciary Committee, to which Mr. Busby's report declared that three investigations failed to reveal any evidence connecting Perry W.

C.—Marked progress in the economic condition of Negro farmers in Southampton County, Virginia, during the past 60 years has been made by the United States Department of Agriculture. "The low price of land in the early post-bellum days favored the attainment of land ownership in the United States," the rapid increase in the value of timber products afforded many of the farmers a means of employing their labor profitably in disposing of the land and clearing for crops. The rapid development of the market for peanuts and the improvement in the price of cotton following the early ninies, and intensified by the World War, have been favorable condition. The survey included 149 farm owners and 112 tenants. Detailed results have been published in Department Bulletin No. 1404, "Tenancy and Owenship Among Negro Farmers in Southampton County, Virginia, Copies of the book, free, as long as the supply lasts, upon request to the Department of Agriculture, Washington, D.C. HOWARD STADIUM HALF COMPLETE WASHINGTON, D. C.—Howard University's stadium is half complete. The field has been filled and levelled and stands on the cast erected. Work is progressing on the west side. The stadium is located in the natural hollow with two sides open and Clark Hall and dwellings on Sixth street close up the other two sides. The football management which plays the Thanksgiving football game here next season is wondering what steps to take to prevent spectators from viewing all athletic contests from these buildings outside the campus. Unless some extraordinarily arranged maze and a high fence of canvas erected, 1,000 persons will be able to see all games staged in the stadium from the roofs of these houses and the windows of Clarke Hall. The dance center of the stadium is the tops of the houses on Sixth street is less than the corresponding distance of the Yale bowl or the Baltimore stadium.

His studies on antiquity and cases were only a subterfuge to stir troubles in this country and that he was in reality in the employ of the German Imperial Government on October 25, 1918 charged with being a spy and exhibiting obscene pictures. An indemnation on the obscure picture charge was found against him and his ball fixed at $5,000. This indemnation was dismissed subseasonally and a new indemnation returned to him, 4, 1920, and Prof. Moen's ball reduced to $2,000. The second indemnation was dismissed November 19, 1923, and new friends of Dr. Moen to recompense him for the Congress to recompense him for the mental anguish he was subjected to over a period of five years. At the beginning of the war he was in Washington studying mixed racial types and taking note of the increasing number of women in Washington society, saddlerable agitation resulted and the fact that the then superintendent of schools, Roscoe C. Bruce, gave Moen permission to examine school children of the time that cultured the element of Mr. Bruce as superintendent.

Prof. Moens outlined all three facts to President Coolidge in September, 1924. The only response he received, he said, was a communication from the State Department, which against the Department of Justice had hard to be presented through the Netherlands Government.

W. Lucas, of the N. A. A. C. P., and Supreme Chancellor Green, of the K. of P., or else you might as well not go to New Orleans. They are the types of what is worth while in New Orleans, so far as its colored people go. There are many fine colored people in New Orleans. Some few of them, fine people too, are the white-colored white called: "The white folks treat me personally all right, so why should I kick." One needs not argue with such a deluded one; just tell him and see and see." He will see soon enough. Free Dinner On one long Jim Crow ride in this section, I sent for the wafer to see about getting food. He recognized me against my wishes,—and took me a big dinner,—and when I wont to pay, he absolutely refused to accept in not even a tip. That is the "south" in a nutshell. In the north he was a bit more generous with giving away free about $250 worth of company's victuals. In the north I have usually no difficulty whatever in being politely served in a dinner—but only when I have the relationship of the cooled servants who happen to be blind, permit them to do as they please with the "boss" foodstuffs. Sheer Courage Of course, the bunch of courage in all Texas is a black man, RICHARDSON, editor of the plainman'SHOCKEN "Houston Informer." He is so "dangerous" that so many of the afraid even to let the Houston whites see them walking along the streets with Richardson; when Richardson is going in this direction, he had friends in the afraid even to let that they have in the opposite direction. And yet, as proof that a man who insists upon his manhood usually wins more real respect from the enemy, he insists that the whites wanted a 1926 Negro head for the Negro end of the "community chest drive" and wanted to throw into some quicksand bog whom the Negro had Richardson — the man to be sure where all the money wont, or to decoy into some doctor's office and have cut into little pieces and carried by various members of the Klux committee into various parts of Houston's environs and burrowed. There are also men like DeWalt, of the N. A. A. C. P. and Prof. Smith of the police department, and the financial committee, and therefore the "interracial committee" is good for something in Houston. In the famous "Collin's case, these black men on公公 mitten men have two wives, monarch white members to "attend" the Collins trial. These two big business men were so completely convinced by their own eyes that they decided to go on his bond. The rest was easy, as sentiment goes in the south,—"why" two of the biggest white men in town don't believe that Negro raped that white wo Texas Is Hell And yet, Texas is hell. Old "Bil" Sherman said, you know: "If I own, and both hell and Texas, then Texas was under military control right after Civil War, one of the subordinate officers, who did not like the part of Texas that was under General Sherman: "This place is too hot to live in, and has no water and no good soaps. Well, I will have her bribes the porter, the Pullman conductor, and the train conductor. If the train conductor is not in town, the train conductor for violating "the law," which is no law, of course, but only the bullying of colored people out in town. After you get the accommodation, you are likely to have to kill or be killed—or Texas I should say kill Alex. The accommodation in favor of a Negro who kills a white in self-defense in Texas. San Tone And yet in the heart of lower Texas is San Antonio, or "San Tone," as the natives say, one of the best towns for women to live in, colored men there strongly in BOTH PARTIES. That ought to awaken some thought even in the head of a Republican slave like Perry Howard. The parties complain that one Negro politician is the biggest single personal influence behind the scenes of government in that city. The colored peo. there boast of the power to control the country in property holdings, the only 10,000 or so in numbers. Negroes run away from worse sections to San Antonio, saw the girls in the school, and had them away from peonage in Louisiana, and are now being protected by San Antonio Negroes. And yet, even here the MONSTER of southern Louisiana is nationally tears. There is one section of San Antonio where 80% of the neighborhood is colored, and yet the Negro hating part of the 20% (not the 80%) of it have had the 80% excluded from the park in that section,—because some few of the children of the white minority did not get along with the black majority. It is the Negro that must pay. There are growing discriminations in other public places; when the proud committee drives you thru the "zoo" park and points out: "Those burros there are bought and malnaled by the Rotary Club.

Insurance Company Business Group Has Assets of Over Six Millions — Work Pleasant — South's Biggest Business Centre By J. A. ROGERS Durham, N. C. is a town of big business, beautiful women, splendid homes, and fine automobiles. It is the Bull City but the joker who tries to make a pun on Durham will find that the joke is on himself, for it is a town of assured and substantial prosperity. It is the second largest tobacco manufactory in the world and what goes up in smoke elsewhere descends here in showers of gold. It is observable that in the city of Durham there are some ten or twelve major corporations owned and controlled, managed by members of the race. Namely, North Carolina, Mutual Life Insurance Company, assets $250,457.16; Texas, Insurance Company, the only fire insurance company of its kind in the world, with assets $342,413.00; the Mutual Build-On Corporation, assets $150,000.00; the Negro Finance Corporation, with authorized Capital of $1,000,000; and the Royal Knights of King David, with assets combined assets of these major organizations are brought together, they represent more than $6,892,000. These institutions do not interlock with the assets of all institutions are distinct and separate in Durham. Work is plentiful in the tobacco factories which pay from two and a half to three doll... day for day for four hours for four skilled labor. Andrew Marsh, necktie manufacturer, and colored foreman in the employ of Liggett and Myers for thirty years told me his farm has 500 tobacco strippers right away. Corn liquor is plentiful almost at pre-war prices. Orange county nearby, has the reputation of being the wettest one in America. Defects I do not wish to give the impression that Durham is perfect. It has many shortcomings. Only his farm is the wettest one we covered in Hayt, the colored section. The effect can be imagined when it rains, or when it is dry and damp, or when it is dignified by that name, are all except one, badly lighted. There is need of a clothing store, a print shop, a barbershop, a M. M. C. A. and while Durham has some of the finest homes I have ever seen I saw in Peach Tree Aley some of the worst Negro shacks And there is of course the inevitable segregation.

The man on the box claimed that he was looking for work. Edwards said that when he discovered the intruder the latter was unscrewing light bulbs from the electric sign, knowingly ask: "Negro children also?"—the humiliating reply: "Only the white children, of course." And yet, as we all know, these Rotary Clubbers club their money out of white and black alike everywhere. And now El Paso. It is in the far western extremity of Texas. It takes 48 hours to ride from east to west to the city. It takes Boston to Washington and back. El Paso is a mixture of Mexico and Texas. Even the "whites" are brownish. It is environment that creates the river. It is the north here. Irrigation is the only hope of vegetation here: the Rio Grande is the life-source of the river. It is primitive superstation such a river would be venerated as a great god. Right over the river is Mexico, Juarez und an allon civilization. It will fight on, but never any fight on. And today they have Jack Dempsey, the Champion American Heavy Weight Dodger. The bulls of Juarez better appreciate the dodged a fight with any opponent. Primary Case There are less than 2,000 El Paso Negroes, but that they have GRIT is sufficiently attested by the fact that they have sared one of his most significant court battles against White Primaries."

Speeches from the banquet table table were broadcast from station n哥哥. Dr. Crampton spoke in part: "We do not come with the spirit of bygone days to insist upon you distinguished gentlemen making campaign promises.

We expect more than any other citizens." Dr. Crampton introduced Mayor George Hoverter who he preclaimed as "one of the greatest citizens The Mayor spoke in part: "Why I am proud of being here as your representative, because that you are a great asset to the city of Harrisburg. I can assure you tonight that representative officials like you are proud of you because you have helped to make this city what it is." Representative S. Hart said. Representative, never been a man in Pennsylvania more interested in the colored people of the State than ex-Lieutenant Governor Edward E. Bleddleman. Lincoln University is the most honorable gentleman. He blocked those who tried to cut off its state appropriations. "Mr. Bleddleman has always fought for Pennsylvania to raise the issue of separate schools. Mr. Hart declared that "the Vare brothers were solely responsible for late Judge Scott's appointment as the first man in Pennsylvania to make a Negro his secretary. He declared that Bleddleman was the first man in Pennsylvania to make a Negro his secretary. The stalwart figure of Edward E. Bleddleman to speak, drew an applause that could be heard all over the city. "I am asking the people of Pennsylvania to support me in the record I have made as a public servant. Why I am opposed by a certain group is because I believe in a square deal for every human being in Pennsylvania regardless of race, His voice fairly thundered when he declared that "Penn founded this great commonwealth on the island of Pennsylvania, where the child should have equal justice and equal opportunity whose feet, perchance were to tread the sacred soil of Pennsylvania." He believed that "it was his duty if elected, governor, to see to it that the sacred grounds of Pennsylvania be kept sacred by seeing to it that the people be given equality before the law; equality of opportunity and equality to rise in the great race of mankind to the fullest attainments of children; and to be vouchsafed by the Constitution and the mandates of Almighty God."

C.—North Carolina has the reputation of being the most civilized of the Southern States. In many quarters it is fondly belied that the race question has been solved and that all the colored people are happy. But an incident happened here last week that for sheer heartlessness would disgrace even Georgia or Mississippi. Shelley Lee, 28, a barber of Burlington, N. C., with a shop catering only to white people, closed up his place after midnight, outside, when he was attacked by a bandit, who shot him through the abdomen, robbed him and fled. Instead of admiration the店 owner, the authorities at Burlington, rushed him to Durham, forty miles away in an ambulance. He arrived in great agony at 2:00 a.m. Dr. J. W. V. Cardice once visited his sister, his domen and his sister, died before morning. Dr. Cardice says that but for the loss of blood, and the shaking caused by the long, cold night, Shelley was saved. Burlington has the reputation of being a regular cracker town. In passing through the town one sees a sign bidding him a hearty Roast Turkey. A similar incident happened to Miss Marjorie Sheepard, daughter of Dr. James E. Seppard, President of the North Carolina College for Negroes of this town recently. She was motorizing with her car and N.C. when the car went into a ditch. She was badly hurt and her arm was broken in two places but she had to come on here for first aid. She was taken to the town was away and the white doctors refused to give her first aid. 300 Workers Wanted To Go North WILMINGTON, N.

The trial which has been going on for a week will begin on Monday and week before it is concluded. The state used the greater part of the time attempting to prove that there was no crowd in front of Sweet's home at the time of the disturbance and no violence was interrupted. Darrow put a bomb under the state's witnesses last Saturday he got Andrew replied in his witness business to Waterwork Improvement association had advocated violence. "There were about 600 people at that meeting. Andrew replied in his witness business to further questioning he said that a speaker from the Tireman Avenue Improvement Association addressed the meeting that Dr. Turner to move from his house in Spokane avenue. Violence was advocated, Andrews said, but he added that while he applauded certain portions of the speech, he did not approve of Andrews described how he walked past the house on the night before the attack, three stones that sounded like pebbles land on the front porch. That happened just as two colored men were about to enter, he said. He was in the Bridge. During a portion of Andrews' testimony, when it appeared his testimony was about to be imposed, Andrews laughed and one dervisely. "That's had business," Toms said, directing the attention of the court to the laugh. Judge Judy cautioned the spectator that there were to be no further demonstrations. Bitterness between lawyers for the state and the lawyers opposing him during the week. On one occasion a state prosecutor, Lester L. Moll, accused Thomas S.

Chawke retorted with the remark that Moll was trying to prescribe him his client in the eyes of the jury. The court had difficulty in restoring order. Judge L.

After many wittenes had been heard, it developed that Thorne had served on a Circuit Court pane of business, and service on another jury for a year. Defense attorneys said they were satisfied with Thorne. After Darrow had accused Florence May are white, white litter, white litter, to answer his questions, like all the others, she finally admitted she had joined the Waterwork Improvement Association in order to help people who lacked neighborhood. Darrow embarrassed several wittenes by asking them pointedly, "Are you a member of the Ku Klux Klan?" he said "No," he came back with, "or the Invisible Empire?" If they still answered "No," he asked them did they vote for the Klan candidate in the last election. Wittenes for the state estimated the crowd outside the Sweet home as low as 12 and as high as 200, but they did not throw an attack on the Sweets before a bullet from the house killed one of the members of the mob.

The varied routine handed Baltimore on Monday night was voted O. K. by everyone as they left the house. As an appetizer the company opened with "So This is Dixie" an air with a swing and go that set everyone on edge for "what they were about to receive" through the window. Sambo Reid, Drake, Claude Collins, and Robinson among the male contingent, combined their abilities in some screening bits, Ethel Walker, and Baby Mack are the principals on the female side of the fence, and match their brothers in cleverness, and of course them in looks and some warmth in I am right here though that whoever picked Claude Collins with his evident education and stage presence; was a picker who could PICK. Among the novelties introduced is one by Baskette and Johnson two boys with a banjo and a cornet imitation that mighty nigh wrecked Mr. Royal's theatre. Robert Wade and Clilton Drake stood out in some speedy and intricate dance steps and fordish for repetitions. There's a Charleston number, there's a style parade, several numbers by Baby Mack and Ethel Walker; and I don't believe I've missed anything but the band. The Cyclonic Jazz Band it is, but instead of being a tearing, rearing cyclone; it is one that is harmonious throughout. Drake directs and permits each member to show missed on Monday night.

AVENUE RD ARTIS "FAITH"-A DRAMA PLEASES CROWD Hoskins As "Infidel" Plays Stellar Role The three hundred patrons who witnessed Mr. Sheldon B. Hoskins' presentation of his tragic drama "Faith" at Sharp Street M. E. Church, last Thursday evening unanimously voted the play a success. Taking a supporting cast of amateurs fro the church, Mr. Hoskins himself acted the stellar role, and the combination gave a smooth, interesting and gripping performance. The play tells of a mother with an infidel and wild son whom she is anxious to see become a Christian. The son scoffs at his mother's simple but wished to marry a Christian worker, Mae Busch. He breaks a promise to go to prayer meeting with his mother and Mae to go out with a renegade friend, Harry Savoy. The mother, overcome by excitement and disappointment, has a stroke. The son returns drunk to find the mother lying down, and assures his mother's death after a halting and futile prayer. Frenzled, he denounces God and even his fiancée. Criminal Converted In the last scene, one year later he has reached the lowest depths of degradation and ill health. Mae has married and is sticking to him. Desperate, he is persuaded by his friend, who is the only person this moment the old family doctor comes in and offers to finance his stay in a sanitarium. Overjoyed he realizes God's goodness and confesses his belief. His companion in crime hears through a window his confession to the doctor and angered at his desertion, rushes in and hits him. He dies while an angel chorus sings "Jell Mother I'll Be There." Smooth Performance The acting of all of the characters was superb. The smooth rendition of the play is due to the fact that Mr. Hoskins, the writer, is a BIGGEST AND BEST SHOW IN TOWN professional actor. He was formerly with the Lafayette Players and more recently with the Baillief Russian Ballet. Ill health, which overtook him in Baltimore, while with the latter company has made it impossible to continue professional acting. Members of the cast were: Henrietta J. Douglas, Flossie E. White, Sheldon J. Hoskins, Lillian C. Fraser, Oscar Simmonds, Grafton L. Moore, Lillian Holmes, Harry J. Hunt, Jr., Angie Beyley, by members of the church choir Anna Hazelton Lee, directress; Nellie Sampson at the Church. 'Risticrats' I don't believe in 'risterials, And never did, you see. The best thing is sorter folks Is good enough for me. Of course, I don't desire no man To be too tarnal rough; But then I think all folks should know When they are nice enough. Now, there is folks in this here world, but they need to king. They want to be so joyful nice They overdo the thing. And that's the thing that makes me sick I set it down that them some folks I set half so good's you think I alms to see a man dress man, In clothes becoming too; I like to see a woman fix As woman wear As lady wear and girls, I likes to see Look fresh and young and spry. We all must have our vanity And pride before we die. I judges no man by his clothes, No gentleman nor trump; For it is the best suit that suits May be the biggest scam; And he whose limbs are clad in rags That makes a mournful sight In general they may have proved A hero in the fight. I don't believe in 'Ristercats, I likes the honest tan That lies upon the heathful cheek And speaks the honest man. JULIA MONTAGUE, 705 Gold street Washington, D. C.—Attorney General John G.

Speights and Speights a mixed double open. (Happy) Kimball and Grimes, two men follow and Dounevor and Dounevor close. Throughout the pictures the usual customers end of the theatre, but this spirit was painfully absent during the rest of the program. Patrons here are an appreciative lot, but when lukewarm, as they were on Monday, there must be a reason. The Watts and Willis Company, always favorites over here, will repeat next week. Madam Ben Bent, Willis is a singer with a mature, being a noted singer in the section; the company supporting her is good. The combination played capacity houses at their last appearance.

PRINCESS ANNE, MD.-Princess Anne Academy shut out the Crisfield High School team in one of the fastest games ever played on Eastern Shores. Score, 5-0. The game was played in seventy minutes. Pitts pitched a masterly game for the Academy, holding the visitors on the field and getting well for Crisfield, but received father wobbly support. Cullen held the Academy safe after the fourth inning, after which they were not able to score. Pitts pitched in the fourth inning, but hits in as many times up, a double, a triple and two singles.

The Black-Sox will meet their old enemy Sunday when the world championship goes up against the Taylorites at Maryland Park in a doubleheader. The Sox have a powerful hitting team, but the pitchers are giving Manager Ben serious concern. That can be expected of them and the infield is all that can be desired, but the greatest problem is the hurling stall that has not struck their usual stride. Strong Holds Out Britt is suffering with a sore arm. Strong hasn't shown up and it looks like the young man that created such a strong arm for a salary increase and is trying to force Spedden's hand. However, Boss Rosser said he expects him to come to terms at any moment. He was fortunate of wildness in his last start that have caused Taylor to hesitate about sending him against the heavy hitting Darbies, but he looked good in several exhibition games. Williburn, the one-cyed twirfer from Sparrow Point, will need more seasoning before sending against the chase. Mungin Shows Class. That leaves Mungin and Bowers the burden bearers for Sunday's battles. He has plenty of clash in recent games. He looks 100 per cent better this year and he may have to carry the load in of stuff, good food and like Strong, rarely loses his bearings. Bowers, who was signed recently, has the ability to have his Cuba eating out of his hands for six innings on Monday. In that period he held them hitless. He got a trifle wild several times, but his fielding kept things in skin-shame. He walked in the first run scored by the Islanders. Manager Pompez gave his lads a good bawling out for the Islanders and made to them look like sandlotters. "Fooled Ump" This young southpaw can make a beast, even fooled Umpire Spencer several times. The pellet turned somersaults. CARP RUNS OUT OF Nate Carp, Baltimore fighter refused to sign last week to fight Will. He knocked out Benny Schwartz at the 104th Regiment Armory April 26. Carp challenged the winner before he was knocked out. After seeing Cohen make out of Schwartz, his manager, Sam Hurry, decided he wanted none of the New York boy. He decided to fight Carp before he left Baltimore and signed an agreement with Benny Franklin to fight on May 10. Franklin is in a fight around Baltimore for a fighter to meet Cohen next Monday. The Harlem boy made a decision to fight fans were disappointed to learn that no opponent can be found here that will take a chance, with him. Cohen is a clean player and gives the opponent of action while in the ring. at the plate, hesitated and stopped awhile before hitting in Clarks glove. He looked down at the floor and cried to look back to the pitcher, so long did it hang suspended in mid-air. Alto he was nervous in his first big win, but at time he flashed a brilliant bit of hurting that would do justice to many of the old timers. Take $5.539 Boss Rosler with the Mrs. seemed pleased with the youngster and predicted that he would be the season's sensation. He would take for Bowers. Without a pause the Sox boss yelled, "ten thousand, and not a cent less." Force of force. For force. Over cleverly lately and may be given a hand in Sunday's pile. Force is really a good pitcher, but bus driving Sox have a regular "chuffer" now and Bill will get a chance to show his true colors. Hildale has the jump on the other clubs by taking three straights in as many starts. They licked the Bacharachs and walloped the Glants into winning terrible in Sunday's games. The Sox and Hilldale always put up a great battle. The locals are the only club get an even break with the team, so they are often played each womens five and last five. For one thing, Hilldale will hardly start "Red" Ryan here as he is always forced to tank Memorial Hall. Winters or Phil Cockrell will no doubt be the choice by Manager Warfield, with big "Bizz" Mackey doing the receiving. Your team will start at 2 p.m. with Spencer and Cromwell behind the plate and on the bases respectively. **BLACK SOX HILDALE** Holloway, cf Dallair, cf Wilson, rf Beckwith, 3b Johnson, fh Day, 2b Flah, sf Clark, cf Rojo, cf Force, p Bowers, p Britt, p Kurtwitz, p Carpenter, p Wilburn, p Briggs, cf Warfield, 2b Carr, 1b Mackey, cf Johnson, fh Thomas, cf Rivers, cf Cromwell, if Stevens, cf Winters, p Ryan, p Cockrell, p Kurtwitz, p Carpenter, p Wilburn, p Page The Laundry-Man For The Sox, Says This Fan Sports Editor: On last Saturday afternoon I attended the opening game of the Eastern Colored League at Maryland Park.

As they limbered up, for the impending battle one could not but appreciate the neatness of their gray garnet-trimmed toggery. What a striking contrast to our own Black Sox team! The local boys looked more like garbage; cart drivers and trench diggers than a team of boys! They deserve a better fate. We have a splendid group of athletes with the Sox. Some would not be far behind the winner in a beauty contest, but our management dress them up that they may appear the gentlemen they are? The Black Sox team is a gold mine for the owners.

The fire, which demolished the garage, destroyed forty motor trucks and cars, and threatened the Vocational school is said to have when a shop was set alight, used its tank to explode. It was only by the most explosive efforts on the part of most of the Northwest section fire fight forces which responded to the fire alarms that more serious damage Besides burning away all of the wooden window framing on the side of the school building, the garage was exposed, the glass window, there was considerable damage caused by water. Residents, in homes on Carey and Cumberland streets were concerned that the threatening did the fire become, and for a time it seemed that the conflagration would involve the whole section. Considerable excitement was caused as tank after tank of the many trucks in the garage exploded sending up fresh fire in the big ground tank in the garage exploded the detonation shock every adjacent building and it was then that the flames leaped the high school building. Examination of the walls revealed, however, that except for the disfiguration, only the floor was damaged and the building could be placed back in repair at a cost of $10,000 it was paid. Classes Not Interrupted Class work in that section of the building managed proceeded as usual Monday morning. Principal Mason A. Hawkinson stated that repairs would cause no interruption in class work. Carey garage, in which the fire originated, is owned by the School Board, but was being used by the private concern under a lease which the private concerned had a clause of title for the new school. Keen crilicism, however, has been made that a law which prevented the operation of vehicles in proximity to schools, was not brought into-play to avert such an event. According to Principal Erissoe of the locational School, the site will expand the vocational department.

Many persons base their daily actions on messages and scenes which come to them during the day. The cover made by a rescriber for the AFRO-AMERICAN. In fact the reporter found few people who would say that they were not affected in some way by dreams. Some, of course, apply the scientific reasoning and say mental activity while asleep reflects physical activity and activities of the person while awake. Forcescen Spirits Mrs. Addle Wood, 1031 Carrollton avenue, for instance, has decided opinions as to the meaning of dreams. Says Shawn McMurray, who overland the stomach to the extent that he will dream continually, there are other occasions when dreams have deeper meaning. The Bible says Young men shall see visions of dreams. Dream dreams. I believe in them." Mrs. Irene Duncan, 628 W. Lavalale street, says "ordinarily I do not believe in dreams, but if I am imitating a dream it may be a fore-warning." Many Meanings Many Baltimoreans who will not express their own experiences for publication, will tell you confidence and pride in their contributions which came to them in dreams. "Whenever," says a prominent Druid Hill avenue woman, "I dream of seeing fish in muddy water, I dream of seeing a fish in a mourning for, for I know that there is going to be a death somewhere in the family." Several years ago, said another woman, "I came to me a dream one night that I shall never forget.

Some Good Dreams That all dreams do not portent evil, is evidenced by one woman interviewed who stated that if during the month of January she dreamed of seeing the new moon in a clear sky, she knew she was to be happy A funeral in dreams, strangely enough, does not disturb the mind of many people, while a wedding is looked upon as the direct precedent of many people. To have teeth extracted in one's sleep is looked upon as a bad omen by many with whom the reporter talked, but to pass through intense pain in any other part of the means, it was said, that happiness is the cornered dress in one's sleep may mean that you are going to have a falling out with a friend. To be kissed by a sweetheart certain sign of a keen love disappointment, according to a young woman interested. Interpreters The reporter found that there are scores of women in Baltimore who make quite an income by interesting dreams and otherwise soothing those who come to them after A large amount of spiritualistic practice grows out of dreams. Some women make visits to the spiritualists who charge them from 50 cents. Dreams may or may not mean anything, according to physicsss here. The only connection they have with the future, they say, is indicate the nature of the physical condition of the body. If your dreams disturb you, go to a physician, they advise.

May it be said of all of us that the world has been made better for our having lived in it." Monuments Congress singed a three hour deadline last week on the proposal to erect a $30,000 monument in France to the 93rd colored Division. As usual Democrats, including entire Maryland delegates conducted a filibuster of orders, amendment and motions to resignation, and the bill was finally passed by a strict party vote 222 passions to 116 Democrats. Representative Connally. Dem. Texas, tried to have the monument ejected to all colored troops. He tried 120 to 42. Congressman J. Charles Lintheim, 4th Maryland district, who was glad to get colored votes a few years ago, led Democratic opposition to the bill and preached a doctrine that would sound both stronge and insincere coming from the lips of any Maryland member of Congress with the exception of Senator Bruce. Listen to this: "I am unalterably opposed to the segregation of our colored regiments from the others. I have in my district many thousands of colored people, all good citizens, many of whom support me in the elections, and others who give me at least their sympathy and do not oppose me; but my colored people have never asked me to see that a "colored monument" was erected to them. They went into the war as American sol "They want to be recognized as American soldiers. They do not want to be recognized as colored soldiers or colored regiments, but they performed American army when performed their duty on the battle fields of France just as the white soldiers and red soldiers performed theirs. They do not want any segregation." "The monument commission will expend $30,000,000 for memorials, and so forth for the work we have done only $30,000 is spent in recognition of our colored soldiers! It would certainly be most unpleasant supplement in any case. They simply to be recognized as straightforward American soldiers who did their work performed services on the fields of France." Is Congressman Linticium arguing for the abolition of Jim crow regiments in the U. S. for the enlistment of Negroes and some company? whites in the conservative Sosnowski of Michigan, denounced the raising of the color question and the objection of the Democrats as more politicized than others who argued that similar monuments might also be advocated for Polish and Jewish Americans. F. Were removed by him that the only separate regiments in the U. S. Army are colored, Poles and Italians served with whites. John Philip Phillip who voted for the bill, opposed on the floor because he is a member of the commission which spends $5,000,000 for memorials, and they were sufficiently provided for by the placing of tablets on monuments erected on tablets on monuments that should serve in separate units, what's the objection to a separate memorial? Representative Connally, Democrat of Texas, into the same debate— "You want to erect a monument to colored soldiers in France, and you want to make it instead of marble. You want to make it black. You want to say to the Negroes of this country, "We do not propose that you run may and marble him as American soldiers. We are going to put a label on your monument so that those who run may read, "This is a Negro monument." Representative of Ohio, the fact that tablets honoring certain colored regiments had been placed on monuments ten miles away from French troops when the French troops show into which congress resolved itself when a $60,000 monument to Negroes was at issue.

State institutions where inmates are unions among all groups of colored college for colored people supported by farmers and the State and Federal farm Planks Congress is soon to adjourn, and unless we are a poor prophet, it will do so without enacting into law any of the three anti-lynching bills now before it. If the President and the party in power were Democrats there would be some reason for the lethargy on Capitol Hill whenever anyone mentions anti-mob legislation. However, Mr. Coolidge is a Republican. He is committed in his pre-election pledge to legislation designed to eradicate the American pastime. Planks in the party platform of 1920 and 1924 commit him and every member of the Republican party, now in power in congress. Two years ago they made this promise to the people, but today safely in office, the President announces that the anti-lychling bill is not an administration measure and congress pigeonholes the measure while it debates how much alcohol in beer makes it intoxicating or how much shall be spent for a post office in Podunk. In the dying hours of the session, maybe, the anti-lychling bill will be called up. Southern Democrats will have just put through administration tax bills and debt settlements, will throw up their hands and declare themselves powerless to do anything. There won't be a roll call Mr. Victor Berger, socialist, Wisconsin, discussing the matter in the situation properly. Said he, "The until-lynching plank in the state, the plank in the others, helped keep the Negro vote in line long enough to enable the Republicans to ride into office. To that extent the plank has served the people." History The Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, is in an campaign this year to raise the work of writing the history of the Negro in this country and Africa. Maryland's quote is $600 and the association is directed of Supervisors of Schools Francis M. Wood, reports that the ruling of this amount is assured. Our hope the association will succeed in securing the full amount of its budget. Histories usually come from college and university savants who conduct their investigations and make their reports in connection with their academic work. Lectures usually teach students usually into a volume and sold for general information. Strange it is that our university department has little in this direction. Poorly and long class room hours may be given as an excuse in past years, but teachers of history cannot ex- Two other phases of this matter are of public import. One is that we shall demand that children be taught to children in the public schools. The other fact is that the dry as dust historians shall take a back seat and histories shall be made as an eager reader as a newspaper or magazine. A sugar coat for factics and narrative dressed in a bit of romance is found by the Hispaniola sociologist not only wise but also profitable. Julian Harris The award of the $500 Pulitzer prize for "most disinterested and meritorious public service" by the University of Missouri. Enquirer Sun, Julian Harris, editor and owner, is a matter for congratulation. This newspaper, located in heart of the nation of state politics by the Klu Klu Klan, campaigned successfully against an anti-evolution bill and protested vigorously against lynching stories, reported the and other white Southern dailies put the soft pedal on accounts of lynchings, this paper played up lynchings stories, reported the and other unfinished mobs in its editorials. Mr. Harris is the son of Joe Chandler Harris, author of Uncle Remus Stories. He is quoted as "Unless you are a Southerner, or have spent some time in the South, you cannot deal with the disasters and dangers one confronts in a small city when he attacks inolerance, bigotry, illiteracy, sentiment,ism, the Klan and State officers, and not only demands justice for the Negro but opens his columns to them in order that their names be written when they other than rape, burglary and Volstead law violations." The Enquirer Sun is not a big paper. Daily editions run to pages 1000 and dominated by big idea and it is refreshing to see that the Pulitzer judges could discover this in a field which embodies all the daily papers in this Mother's Day "I was grander upon my mother's knee than a king upon his throne." —Frederick Douglass. "All that I am, all that I ever hope to be, I owe to my darling mother."—Abraham Lincoln. "Mother to me will always remain the noblest embodiment of womanhood, with whom I have ever come in contact."—Booker T. Washington. "Between my mother and myself there has always been a real companionship."—Robert R. Moton. Sunday is mother's day. According to custom those who have living mothers will wear a pink flower. Those whose mothers are dead will wear white one. Those at home will surround her with the glow and the wealth of their affection. Those far away who send a message of love in intimacy. A fine sentiment, a beautiful idea is this. Yet the great men of the world confess that to them every day is mother's day. And so it It is she who suffers that a new life might be born. It is her body that gives the fresh nourishment, and her arm which affords the firm support. It is the hand of mother which guides the awkward infant in its first step. Her voice intones the "Now I lay my. Here is the sollicitude of youth. From her spring eternally sympathy, hope and inspiration. To her each offspring is a jewel raro and priceless. None is commonplace, none is worthless, none is honor. "Honor * * * thy mother, that thy days may be long in the hand which the Lord thy God giveeth thee."

Graduates Are Ahead of Baltimore Intellectually Anten the feeling expressed in issue 10 of the standard on Dougasc High were not level with those at Dunbar because of certain achievements of Dunbar graduates, may I call your attention to the difference in the upon which the schools operate? The career of Lowell Wormley is in line with his heritalty. On both sides of his family there is unusual success. He attended the school for free colored children thirty years before the Civil War. He has a score of teachers and professional people in his family. It was my privilege and pleasure to teach the very subject in which he now wins a prize. We had not only the equipment of the laboratory school, but we had the almost boundless museums at our disposal, and used them. His mother is the daughter of former Congressman Cheatham. The other successful Dunbar alumnus is almost equally talented It should not be overlooked that Washington has a population largely composed of people selected by our college of all people in Indiana and hence prepared for intellectual pursuits. Baltimore, on the contrary, prospers by commercialism and hence prepared for intellectual activity. There is no difference in the intelligence demanded in these lines; one deals more with symbols and the other with things.祖母 or from what-kind of grandparents you came, plays a large part in determining one's fitness and ability, and it is no disgrace to be better fitted for one than for another. The ultimate test of a high school education is in social service as well as in education, and it is a fact that the homes of Baltimore prove the efficiency of "Douglass," High School, when such a school is applied. Charles M. Thomas, Washington, D. C. Suggests Informal Banquet To Dr. William T. Carr, Whom He Calls Dean of Local Physicians Dear Editor: Judging from a recent editorial in the AFRO-AMERICAN it seems so if much criticism from evil sources, is being heaped, upon Dr. Curr on account of his policy in the management of Provident Hospital. Edward Warfield Boyle, 392. Washington St., Newark, N. J. POLITICS LOW WAGES AMERICAN RACE SENTIENT LAWLESSNESS CAPITAL LOW WAGES CATERET N. R. OUTBURST RACE DISCRIMINATION UNION LABOR DAY BY DAY WITH WILLIAM N. JONES Principal J. C. Briscoe, of the Vocational School calls attention to a feat which should interest young engineers. From Locus Point last week was shipped to far away Siberia the world's biggest dredge to be used in mining gold in that outpost of civilization. This gigantic machine will be carried half way around the world a distance of 15,000 miles and the machine must carry $1,000,000, exactly the price the steel corporation will get for the machine. It will require an year to transport it to a part of the trip having to be made on ox carts. This dredge will have to do more than $2,000,000 of work be before it even pays for itself and here it is. There is plenty of opportunity in this world if there are those with foresight and persistence enough to realize that they are enough developed territory to engage all the ingenuity and talent of the young engineers of the race for fifty years, to say nothing of this White men will follow, that dredge to far away lands in gold, youth of the race must widen their industrial horizon and pre- The Hon. George W. Murray, one of the last race congressman from the Palmetto state, passed away in Down in South Carolina, still lived men and women who can tell you of his "nuts" in that state which first seceded from the union, and strangely enough, in which the Negro race rose highest in governmental power and represented the robbed the group of the vote, down in the lower part of the state where Murray lived, they still qualified for the Republican Representatives TO CONGRESS. It was not until the late ninies that he had sold his tenants to whom he had sold a home present a charge that he had shifted the original title of a lot because it became more valuable. Once in the white courts of South Carolina, the matter was simple, and Murray passed as a potential power in that state. He died in Florida. No young man aspiring to leadership should, fail to study carefully every one of history or all of science. How all states do we get a close up of the extent to which racial oppression may go, and most of all THE WEAKNESS OF prejudice. From the early reconstruction era until a few years ago, NEGROES OUTNUMBERED WHITES IN THAT STATE. During a long period they held in office a large majority in the state legislature, a lieutenant governor and sent representatives to congress. Young men and women in that state now number all this sweep away, look their forebears in the face and ask the reason why. By all the rules of reason, the Negro in South Carolina with the majority of sympathetic national government, should have been able to hold his own. The answer perhaps was a lack of cohesive and able leadership of our political weakness today. It must frankly be admitted some time that politics there became an orgy of corruption, and men forge the group for selfish advantages. This writer sat once in the galleries of the legislature of that state when the new infamous Jim Crow law was being enacted, and memorandum from the records cases where $400 scholarships in the University of South Carolina were given elderly men to pay political taxes, and the cases they staid at the university only long-enough to qualify and get the money. It was not surprising that scheming politicians could honeycomb the organization that shot guns could do the rest in driving the group from the poles. It is also no discredit to the rank and file of voters who were members of their own group Biggest Dredge Last Of His Group in those stirring days History is one of the best backgrounds against which to reflect the future, and sometimes we shudder at the energy expended to get rights, when we spend so little to hold them accountable. We need men like Frederick Douglass and the death of such men as George W. Murray, once congressman from South Carolina, only emphasize the fact we are losing in urban polities. Why Not A Church For Children In one of Baltimore's largest churches Sunday ushers repeatedly asked children to leave their seats in order that more mature people could Perhaps communities could help solve this problem by having a real children's church, where all activities and procedures are in the spirit of youth, and where children could have the front seats. A fifteen year old follower of Christ, would be a more valuable community from every point of view that a fifty year old follower, for he or she would touch life where Christianity is most needed. For those young minister with great ideas and who does not want to run the gauntlet of present day struggle of politics in appointments, could have a wide open field in a real Mr. Whittemore Sitting in his impregnable cell in a Baltimore City jail is one of the most notorious lawbreakers in this country today, Richard Resse who was convicted of murder, andider, robber, and master criminal. "They can't convict me for murder," he is reported to have said, "because they have me as a Negro." Even down in the depths of crime and degradations runs the slim trail of race prejudice. Baltimore Penitentiary, the Mint of the Penitentiary and made his escape. Even with this mute evidence against him, he feels he might escape the hangman's noose, because the only eye witness was a colored man. White men have been executed in Baltimore, even for murder. But if there ever was one who was guilty, that man is Whitmore. This writer has looked on while the life of a man executed in this city. The crime of each was a crime of passion or temperament, man charged with cool deliberate murder for gain. It will injure to see how the law will work in this case. Home For Girls A story in another column of this paper shows that after several years of tireless effort a group of faithful women have offered a total of $155.70 for a home for unfortunate mothers and babies. If this represents the interest of Christian men and women here in this movement. God have pity upon us. Baltimore citizens spend nearly $1500 daily for theart and movie admissions. This reaches the sum of about $450,000 each year. How many real Christians will put their religion in practice and forego two or three shows this whole year and send them to put his cause over?

Heard and Seen In Baltimore A great writer once said "The world is a stage and we are all actors in the drama of Life," or words of that office. Normally you would try to tast the truthfulness of this statement that a wandering bard, such as I. In the following paragraphs we will record a little one act play taken from life in our own fair city. The characters are an ebony shuck and a dusty sheen and they try to love a love span outside of the hospital. The place is just outside a McCubit street dance hall. The time is any Saturday night. She—Just in moment, Mistlethorn Johns, in words with you. What I want to know is how come you didn't show up on our wedding day? He—You see, Mandy. It was just like this; the clerk wanted to charge me two dollars for a marriage license and I told him that the gag was going to marry wasn't worth disappointed, was you? She—No. I wasn't disappointed. I just hated to think that I took that bath for nothing, that's all. He—If you will loan me enough to get the ring out of hook we'll set another date. She'll You'll never have a chance to tell me again his boy because I only told him his boy because we had never met. Through with you is the surest thing I ever was. He—That shows thing I ever was. She you women are. Just because a guy tells you to show up on his first wedding day you want to turn him down. But let me tell you sister, if you wouldn't tell you I tell you up to your folks will think there was a wreck on ten railways and you were riding on all the trains. She—the last man who struck me is so far back in the jail it will take him six months to reach the front door. She—If you give me the air I hang on your front porch. She—and you can't do that either because I don't have no man hunting, around my house. He—Do you remember the night we met? It was an accident. She—You're right, it was an accident and I was the victim. I called the drug store to get a dose of pot and I got your number by mistake. He—Now see how much you owe the telephone company. She—Yes. I always did have bad She—Yes, I always did have bad luck like that. He—Now didn't I take you past a restaurant nearly each and every night? She—Yes, but we went in so doggedly my stomach thor my teeth were on a strike. He—Didn't I take you to a store where they call the finest clothes? She—Yes, and when I couldn't get a job you tried to break my nose. He—And didn't I come to see you every night and set and hold your hand. She—Yes, but why you didn't hold me sometime is what I can't understand. He—Didn't I call you on the telephone every hour of the day? Yes—Yes, and then reversed the calls and I had the bill to pay. He—Didn't I buy you a new fur coat and tried to treat you nice? She—Yes, but I had to wear it in the parlor because you were cold as ice. He—Now, look here. If we can't kill your dog and find another one. HE OWES IT ALL TO DARWIN The publicity agent was interviewing the politician, who asked me if I may regard your birth, Senator" he asked, "you know it should be mentioned, you about my birth," replied the Senator, "tell them that I consider my birth as one of the most important events of my life." Kelly Miller Says Kelly Miller Says If the Negro would stand firmly with the forces of temperance and sobriety in the titanic struggle now waging and should effectively help bring about the victory for righteousness and law, much of the political animosity of which he is now the victim would give way to friendly co-operation and good will. I received the other day a request from a student in one of the great Northern universities for suggestions on the question—whether the student should be a failure. It appears that the question was to be the subject of a joint debate among the students of that university. My reply was to the effect that so far it had provided the student howling success nor a flat failure, but that it has been the means of effecting broadly speaking the general betterment of the race. Moral Welfare The Negro's interest in politics is essentially moral. This proposition cannot be repeate. too frequently. The ballot was given him as a moral weapon with which to defend himself against the assaults On the whole the race has used the franchise in the right direction. The bla:l: man has consistently voted for the best men and the best measures which have been brought about. He has been the result of conscious purpose or deliberate action. But from the first the race has been in alliance with the best influences and the best traditions in American politics. So long as there was a direct iso:ue of loyalty and disloyalty, he has always shown the better part. Wherever the question of human rights was involved, he has been on the side of equity and justice. In the early days of his enfranchisement one of the great parties concededly monopolized the loyalty of the Negro in the elections. In those days the Negro was one hundred per cent. Republican. He still holds to his old alignment with the diminishing hope that it may be good old days of its pristine virtue. There is still a lingering hope that it will again lift its voice in behalf of the nation. It all of the man that it did immediately after the rebirth of the nation. But his hopes grow fainter and fainter and his faith falters in face of faces whose discouragement compels pessimism. Dismal Failure From the present appearance of this political one might feel fully convinced that a dismal failure. It has been effectually denied him in those states where his numbers are greatest. In the South the Negro votes in the influence on the local government. In the North his numbers are relatively too insignificant to be effective except in strategic situations and even if equally divided. And even there its influence and effect are too faint for ordinary discernment. Wholly Negligible In national affairs, the race as a whole is treated as if its vote was wholly negligible. The Negro can not secure favorable legislation; he cannot command the military treatment at the hands of the government; he can hardly secure the appointment of any member of his race to any important position or no difference which of the great political parties is in power. If we consider the relative distribution of his vote between the Reconquista and the Conquista, it will be easily seen that he fares about as well under the treatment of the one as the other. South Inimocal There is however no fixed element of antagonism which persists with equal pertinacity under Republican like. The representatives of the lower southern states are immobil to the political rights of the Negro. They make their influence just as strong as the Republican in power as when the opposing party rulers. The Southern Senators defeated the confirmation of Lincoln Johnson under Harding as they did the confirmation of Warren under Johnson as they will fail to defeat the confirmation of Cobb under Coolidge. We may however always count upon the persistent opposing factor, and may as well discount it as a scarecrow in favor of or against any political organization. **White Overlordship** As the case now stands, the only practical function which the race now exercises in politics besides the mere mechanical performances of the Mississippi and Georgia. There are two colored members of the national Republican Committee who exercise the ordinary functions of the political ruestes of this great organization. To them has been accorded the semblance of control of local patronage in the state, that his control must be subject to white overlordship. They may recommend white men only to important federal offices in their respective states, but he condemned that this is a prerogative of great practical advantage. The fact that the white postmaster must needs receive the endorsement of a man of high rank him much more amenable to the claims of his race in the way of minor patronage and considerate treatment than would otherwise be possible. Negro had no say of any kind or character. Function Left Handed To function with the left hand is better than not functioning at all. In the North the Negro can only be used for the left hand, be for such place and recognition as he deems his rightful due. He is wholly without compelling power. He holds no commanding power. He is not in the condition of the political mendicant. As matters-political are now trending, the Negro will become of less and less weight and importance as his intelligence grows. He counts Baltimore, Md. Prohibition, A Political Issue Moral Welfare 100 Per Cent Republican Dismal Failure Wholly Negligible South Inimocal White Overlordship Page Eleven for less under Harding and Coolidge than he did under McKinley and Roosevelt. He will in all probabilities count for as little or less under the next administration as he does under the existing one. **Political Blind Alley** There is no statesmanlike policy in sight to alter conditions for the better. The only hope above all is to align himself with some great moral movement. The shifting exigencies of political expediency hold no promise for him, and the only way out is by moral mooring to some great cause based upon the enduring foundation of moral quality. **Prohibition** Fortunately, at the present moment, is the present moment an useless question. Prohibition is a moral question. Like human slavery two generations ago, it has now become a simple question or right and wrong. As between us and lawlessness the was no choice. The eighteenth amendment is a part of the constitution. Any one who votes to tamper or temporize the integrity of the Constitution the integrity of the Constitution. The Negro's salvation depends upon upholding the organic law of the land. He appeals to the conscience of fourteenth and fifteenth a condition of the moral consistency by voting to uphold the eighteenth. The claim of moral consistency upon him at this time is greater than any party ties to the law. Now let the integrity of the law rise above party politics. Moral Issue The wily politicians are vying with each other as to which can be the best candidate to dump or moist according to the number of votes to be won by their shifting attitude. The completely broken down. Republicans or Democrats are assuming to favor whatever policy their state or party may espouse and that their politics is a game whose reward the spoils of office. The Negro has little hope for office, so that he runs no risk by standing by principle. Public Opinion The attitude of the government toward the Negro is the outgrowth of public opinion. It makes little sense to power, it boots but little what individual is chosen as chief executive, the disposition of the administration toward the Negro will be dictated by public opinion. The Negro under President Harding and under Mr. Coolidge is dealt with on the basis of political parsimony, it is not in the least degree responsible for the fate of the President, but because he is under the domination of public sentiment, Change of administration will have no effect upon this attitude. Existence of an institutional chair will bring little or no relief so long as this prevailing sentiment remains unaltered. Sheer Expediency The fundamental proposition before the Negro is to change public opinion. This, I am persuaded, he does. I do not repudiate the republican ticket, nor yet dividing his vote between the parties on the basis of sheer expediency. His best chance of propitating himself with the forces of law and order and public morality. This will put him in right alignment with the conscience of the nation. He will best meet men and women infect upon the best welfare of the country, principle of law, respect for law and the righteous enforcement. People who enlist themselves working together for the same cause soon come to recognize and appreciate the worth and the worthfulness of their coworkers. Should Stand Firm I firmly believe that if the Negro would stand firmly with the nation in the titanile struggle now warring and should effectively help bring about the victory for righteousness and law, that much of the political animosity of which he is now the victim of is now friendly cooperation and good will. I further believe that it would tend to relieve the political animosity of the North by those any proclivities would greatly improve assistance from those erstwhile held in political dissemete. At any rate, under the new use of the North, it would not possibly the Negro could be more gloomy than it is to day nor the outlook more dismal than the existing policy portends.

Dallard is the only Taylor and Beckwitt are the only Sox players having home runs in league games. "Babe Ruth" Wilson was the only player in league, but it was in exhibition games. George Flal is making an excellent start and ranks third with a mark of 333 in 11 times up. Holloway, Mungh, and Beckwitt are all over 300 figures. The Sox are making a mighty poor showing in club batting. In four games, they only hit 200, which is rather low.

Marriage Business Marriage Business A DOUBLE BARRELLED LOVE STORY Mirabelle pinched a crumb from the steaming casserole dish, tasted it and smiled. Joe would like it; that she was sure. Two surprises her Joe tonight—a new dish and a new friend. Mirabelle slipped the dish on the warming shelf and completed her preparation in hour. Soon the forcible toa was cracked; the sand and chilled; the table by the window decked with the wild honey suckles brought in from Sunday's hille with Joe. Then Mirabelle smoothed her hair over her ears, tiled up herself and sat down to wait for Joe. And as she stood, her mind slipped to those heavy drab days when Mother, knowing her summons near, often taken Joe's hand and hers, pressed them together and had talked to them in her calm and grave voice. The subject of all her sayings has been this, that they must rickle together, that now they must be mother and father to their sister and brother to each other and no one must be held dear to them. Well, she and Joe had stuck after that. The boy discontinued his college course and became a newspaper reporter. The girl attended cooking classes and a home potion classes and soon bought comfort and beauty out of the appartment of the first few months. Certainly the apartment with its daily ruffled curtains and its air of spotlessness was as sweet and cozy as a nest. A nest it was indeed to Mirabelle that warm evening evening as she woke up to indulgent eyes the gaze with which Joe welcomed and discharged the cockerel. "Could be worse, brown mouse," was his teasing commendation. Mirabelle flared as dangerously as it was possible for Mirabelle to threer. "At any rate," she informed him, "I have a flaming flapper for you tonight. Fast and high brown skin and has brought the upper floor of her existence into the upper floor of my apartment. She'll appease your indulgent appetite. I'll say. She'll be down if no dolphin come in." Evidently the Johns failed to put in their appearance for a little later on Mirabelle opened the door to admit a girl as sweet and fragrant as the pink honeystueshes themselves, as light and dainty as a puff of blossoms blown by the wind. She awayed her curly job in a deep how quite down the pert knees beneath the tight chocolate colored beneath the tight black skirt. She danced in on her high heels caroling a senseless fingle. "And hope you are the same." "And this is brother Joe?" she finished. Going directly to that amazed and blushing personage, she put her hand in his and smiled into his eyes, crinkling her own until they were almost closed. Joe accepted the production as possible and soon sled into a chair in as far and in conscious a corner as could be found in so tiny a kitchen. But Mirabelle saw him smile once or twice at the office jokes with which Clarice regaled them. She also saw a blush work it with her breast when Clarice swung her carefully some pounds to the table and hooked one silken leg over the other so that the curves of her smooth knees dazzled him. But when she sat sat thus and strummed on an aluminum fry-jan held troubadour fashion across her breast and sang intimate little wittering songs to the end kissed of the honeysuckles and tossed it into Joe's lap. Mirabelle saw him look upon the pink bouquet as though it were alive. When she looked again it had disappeared. When the singing was over, rice began upraoously, drunk from the potency of the gingerale and stumbled about, waving a slopping glass in one hand. The solemnity of her Chapleina air and her com-swayings tickled them all so that the fever soon in a hilarious laughing bout. Finally Clarice took her departure, still seemingly injured, and thysi.

Eutaw Business CLELED LOVE STORY After she had left a vague cold fear disturbed Mirabelle. She had always dreaded the time when Joe would love and marry. The thought of being apart from him or as an outsider was hard. She had to bearable one. These thoughts she pushed from her mind, but she could not bring herself to ask her brother's opinion of her new friend. The days which followed were charged with new life for Mirabelle. Claire, the mother mode of living and enjoyment, Gone were the long hikes, the evening reading and the movies. Now there were gayeties in a dizzy whirl, picnics, excursions, motor rides thru the city with the girl members of the gang crowded in on the lions of boys. Furthermore, Clarice began to improve upon Nature's handwork in the matter of Mirabelle—for what is life if not art? Soon Mirabelle's demur hair was lopped and a glistening boyish bob framed her face. Her lips smiled in a perpetual Cupid's bow. Her body recalled its tenderness though glistened by shine. Her brown eyes shone in the beaded fringe of muscara. All this was Clarice's work; this and even more. For it was Clarice who taught Mirabelle the trick of smiling straight into a man's eyes before she dropped her own. It was she who taught her to relax her whole body and let it yield softly to her dancing partner's arms. It was Clarice who taught her to smoke a cigarette, to exhibit discontinuity, to memorize little jokes, to put men at their ease by catching their attention at the start by some witty saying. All tricks of the trade of captivating men, they were propounded by an expert and fell upon fertile soil. For, by the fall, Mirabelle was as trim, as pert and captivating a flapper as ever flapped in goshes. Then, too, Clarice was generous in the matter of men equipped Callie, and men were offered to Mirabelle's nest and even left to her landshiments while Clarice jiced the root beer and spread the sandwiches in the kitchen. "Flivver guilders" who called for a ride with Clarice found that Mirabelle was frequently substituted while Clarice slept off a headache. So it was he time at all before Mirabelle took a small but increasing incotree of admirers. And speaking proportionately, it was very little longer before she had set aside a niche in her heart for Lew Howard: Lew with the laughing black eyes and confident bearing; Lew who held her so firmly and tenderly whee- they danced and pressed his warm cheek against her hair and audibly sniffed its fume. Hers mind you, not any Not that she dreamed of marrying him, you understand, but it was as if her mother had lived and Joe wouldn't be alone without her, and if Lew should like her, then Lew would be her chick. Now will this run like a tiny thread, through the pattern of Mirabelle's thinking but not a word breathed she to anyone—to Joe nor Clarice.

Pick these sparingly, especially if near a large town or township with flowers from street vendors or markets encourages their destruction. The roots should not be disturbed and plenty of flower left to go to seed if you wish to enjoy them another year. Cut woody flowers branches close to the base.

A The Afro-American—South's Bi-gest and Best Weekly Why Pretty? Soon we will be winding the primrose pait, thru the woods, catching from the perfumed air such exhilarating odors from sweet clover, sweet shrub, mixed with orange and apple blossoms. What a tonic it is: the thrill of sweet freshness of nature causes my mind to turn again to God's loveliest creation—woman—to warn many of us of the essentious impasse daintiness, that can only be obtained by tireless effort, to reduce excessive perspiration and its consequences, unpleasant odor. Doctors have come to the conclusion that it is not harmful to check too excessive diffusion of moisture from the skin glands: true fastidiousness demands it for the active individual. Records show that Cheopatra and Popaaca defended their bodies against the most unesthetic of all misfortunes—perspiration, odor. The former used baths of strawberries and pasminum; Popaaca used milk, steamed and served sending envoy seeking recipes for others to enhance her personal daintiness. We should be as particular with the selection of our bath salts and deodorants as we are with our gowns, gloves, shoes and hats. Be careful and particular that when you are passed or spoken of, the first suggestion of you will bring into the mind of those discussing you fresh sweet cuberule charm, the flower-woman. Remember always, that only unduly, unfugging care, confined to detail can distinguish the true gentlewoman that magnificence of costume, is marked by unpleasant odors, that amusing charms is increased by the indulgence in the use of dainty refined perfumes. Play up your individual perfume; adopt the plan of using such perfumes as the most pleasant perfumes. Avoid the use of perfumes on solided underwear or dresses. MRS. G.—The clever wife will try to retain admiration for "ever-and-for-ever" by constant vigilance upon charms; she will possess the true fitness of things, giving teeth, hair, eyes and complexion her undesired attention, less she than the youth of her husband's potent thing that called her husband's attention. There is nothing so alluring as a youthful, radiant complexion. Mme. R. Creditt-Ole's Scientific Beauty Culture School, 4707 Calumet avenue, Chicago.

Light Terrors: Probably caused by indigestion and constipation. Give the child a careful diet, light evening meal, healthy outdoor life, avoiding excitement. If continued frequent consults. Examine for enlarged tonsils, adenoids, decapitate, genital adhesions, or tachoclasis. Poison Swallowed: Better prevented than cured. Never put any poison where a child can possibly get into it.

The Old Gardner Says Phacelia campanularia is a somewhat complicated name which is given to an attractive and interesting little plant from California and New Mexico. It is not a very showy plant, but to be sure, as it grows only about nine inches high, but looks well in a rock garden and is good for edging. The small, bell-like flowers are in the middle of the plant. The seed should be sown out of doors where the plants are to grow as soon as danger of frost has passed, and the young plants thinned out so that they will stand eight or nine inches apart.

Later on, they complimented me because he was unspoiled, healthy and lovable. A naturally attractive child may become unavailable through the neglect of his parents to direct the small acts of childhood. The child is not to blame. The moulding of every baby boy and girl is very much in the hands of the parents at the start. If I understand how important a factor training in the right direction can become. One often hears some mother relating to a friend a cute remark by her child or telling of some act while the child listens intently. He understands at this repletion. He is impressed, and he soon thinks his "smart" sayings and acts are cute and begins to realize that they are the means by which he gets notice. Then he loses the sweet, innocent ways that belong to a child and becomes One little boy I know is giving the teachers in school a troublesome time, and the mother declares she is unable to prevent it. When he was a baby he was bright and attractive, imitating naturally little things his people did. If he heard a slang expression he repeated it much to the amusement of his teachers, gathering friends by showing blim off. Now they are suffering; the child is not wanted anywhere. Children should be encouraged to think and act for themselves and, to a certain extent, by themselves; it is surprising how quickly they pick up manners and customs by observation. After a child has begun to toddle about, there ought to be a very little need to amuse him. He is often told how good a child can be if left alone, and indeed he should be accustomed early to being alone at intervals. We often forget that a child has his own fancies. The one thing it is necessary to provide is something to do. A little child loves to feel busy, to be occupied as he sees older people occupied, and the cannot always get away. He should be encouraged to make some of his phythysics out of cardboard, wood or paper. He can quite easily make his own picture books. Very often a child will need to be started in an occupation or game and then should be left to manage the rest, for himself. He thinks. This will help greatly in solving many perplexing problems. To laugh at or ridicule a child when he asks some question, innocently, even though the question is amusing, may do serious harm. The laugh seems to cast his grave thoughts aside as he thinks about the child's own tivie which can be discovered if one will watch carefully. This careful watchfulness is a continuous demand upon parents, but there is no greater happiness for us Mme. Grayson BEAUTY PARLOR 1828 PENNA, AVENUE Hairdressing, Manicuring, Etc. Hours: 9 A.

APPOINTMENT OF RHODES ISON PAPER-ARNOLD New Philly Asst. U. S. Dist. Attorney Named As Bait To Negro Vote Beidleman Seems To Be Popular Choice For Governor BY AFRO POLITICAL OBSERVER PHILADELPHIA PENN. — Not in the history of American politics has there been a contest of more fundamental importance than the three cornered light for the nomination for Senator and Governor of the old "legislature" Pennsylvania which will have a primary election May 11th. Broad street is continually a scene of moving white humanity, and South street is black with colored politicians from every section of the county who are here trailing the millions of Secretary of the Treasury, Andrey Mellon whom it is alleged is pouring money into the state in the interest of Senator George Wharton Pepper, and John S. Fisher who are the Mellon machine candidates for Senator and Governor. AFRO and Courier Cause Alarm In Mellon Camp Activities among white and colored leaders of the Mellon machine, began early Friday when the APRO AMERICAN exposed the bait which was thrown to colored voters of the state by the verbal appointment of E. Washington Rhodes, editor of the Tribune, as United States district attorney, and Roe v. Wade on the issue football coach and ex-Democrat, phoned Mr. Rhodes to come post haste to Pepper headquarters after being informed that the Courier had flopped to Congressman Vare and the APRO had exposed the Mellon's organization political machinations. Mr. Rhodes, whom the Pepper white leaders had used as a bait in announcing the appointment was ordered to lounge around the Pepper headquarters, while "Bill Roper" who is managing the Pepper campaign that he might try to persuade voters of the Mellon Rhodes. At this time, Mr. Roper has not been successful and Mr. Rhodes' appointment is only verbal and not on paper. Vare and Baldeman, the Colored Instead of the verbal appointment being a sop which would swing the colored vote it proved to be a boomerang. From every section of the state word is being sent to J. C Asbury and his organization that the leaders and their followers either swing to champion of Hurburg, Pa. has cast his lot with Wm. S. Vare, and it is alleged that R. L. Vann has a well oiled machine working in western Pennsylvania against the Mellon machine. Bleddleman Choice For Governor Edward E. Biedleman, the present Lieutenant-Governor, seems to be the choice of his colored constituents throughout the state. YORK, PA. The State Convention of the I. B. P. O. E. of W. opened in the A. M. E.

Pittsburg Wide Open PETKTSBURG.—Preparatory to the election and as a means to garner the vote of the underworld and the bootleger, Pittsburgh is wide open and wringing wet from end to end.

Green, Harry Burrs, Reginald Oxley and Nathan Howard were elected for three years. Those who know him personally say that he is a friend of the race out of office and in office. The present outlook is that Congressman Wm. S. Vare will be Pennsylvania's next Senator and Edward E. Bledleman will be Pennsylvania's next Governor. "Mellon's millions" seem to be failing in the purpose for which he being spent. It looks bad for George W. Whiston Pepper and John S. Fisher, known to the common people as "Slik Stocking men."
