Hold White Man On Rape Charge
INDIANA POLIS—The case of Indiana Miller, white, who was accused of having repeatedly assaulted little seven old Lillian Hampton is created.
Lillian was often sent to Hall's Pharmacy for sundry necessities. Johnson noticed that it took Lillian a while to combine often of strange real pain, which the grandmother attached to rough playing and adabated the child accordingly. But when she returned to work, they took so long a time, the grandmother became anxious, and Lillian's return she was questioned closely. This brought to tide the indecent acts of a white driller.

battles against Edward Miller, white,

Statue of Liberty Is Big Hunk Of Bronze
BY RALPH MATTHEWS
NEW YORK—It was chilly as my partner and I hurried to Smith Avenue Jackson's jumbo room after being up all night on a crowded excursion train.
The man who invented day chonk seats and one object in view that was to make them as uncomfortable as possible. It was just eight o'clock but at this hour an hour and a half could be seen in the windows, reminding that it was Mother's Day. She only had white ones and I was mighty glad that I didn't have who I wondered who chonked the stool opposite me and ordered coffee and buns, knew what day that was? "They cleaned me last night," he said, as his slipped his last dime over the counter.
Just this, every one lookes, not certain whether I law against homely girl the streets of York or the streets of New York on the streets of me there must be.

About New Yorkers
Fell in with a bunch of old friends who after a cordial greeting resumed their business of seeing if their numbers and well. Reminder of Calamore and the races. On fellow told me that he had played the same number of weeks and had just won. A New Yorker is much more bearable in his city than he hears yours. In city of New York he takes the attitude of the city chap in a small town. He takes advantage that unexplainable hit, of, in-portance that goes with the announcement "Oh, he is from New York." In his own city he has not this advantage and you meet him on his merits. But even then he loses none of his sophist-
Piping the Fashion Plates
Piping the standin. In front of the Lafayette sheen about 2:30 I wondered what would be said of the chap if he walked down Druid Hill Avenue dressed in his high silk hat, English walking coat, sers, and gloves. I say that the chap, but his name was legion. Not certain whether the Odd Fellows that followed later augmented the number or not. The Tartan carrier, with a pair of air of fashion soft hats cocked at a jaundy angle, colored shirts, preferably blue with collar to match, double breasted vests with short coats, moderately wide trousers placed the best dress gloves complete their gird.
You may wander why I fail to describe the woman's attire. It's

just this, every one looked different, but every one looked good. I am not certain whether the street is walking the streets of New York or not but judging from the ones that passed me there must be so.
I saw this was a wonderful lobby display in front of the Alhambra. There was one picture of the chorus in which their costumes consisted of a wig and a wig. Very sorry that I couldn't stay to see the show. Several Baltimore musicians are making good, just as a chore and they rushed down on Broadway to play at a dancing school.
The Lord of the Free
Crossing on the ferry to Jersey City on my way back to Baltimore, I got a glimpse of the Statue of Liberty. That big hunk of bronze during time of war. I thought of all the wonderful things they say about it in movie sublimities in images of the pursuit of happiness. My chest swelled, I thought of the peanut galleries, the Charles street buses, Countee cullen and the Emerson galleries. I was feeling like the hero in the popular play, "Back Home and Broke."
FLA. MOB LYNCH WRONG MAN
LABELLE, FLA.—Two hours after a mob of white had shot Henry Patterson to death, after parading through the streets with his body before hanging him to a tree, they had hanged an innocent man. Woman at first told members of the mob that Patterson had assaulted her. When she found out the crime they had committed she frightened at the man's presence in her, neighborhood.

Farmers Prefer Weekly To Daily Newspapers
All U. S. Agreements Okeyed. Wage Question May Bring Trouble
MONROVIA, LIBERIA—President C. B. D. King fired two members of his cabinet last week. Those dismissed are James F. Cooper, secretary of War and Postmaster General Abayomi Karnega, the African World says today.
Cooper was succeeded by James W. Cooper, not a relative, and Karanga by Reginald A. Sharman. Cause of this drastic must be the part of U. S. King was the fact that the two men dismissed had announced their candidacy for president of the Republic in the e-

WASHINGTON, D. C.—Farmers prefer weekly newspapers to dailies, according to a survey recently made by the U. S. Department of Agriculture in Southampton County, Virginia. The survey was made by W. S. Scarborough. Of 112 farm tenants and 149 farm owners' interviews, 48 subscribed for daily newspapers, but took regularly weekly newspapers.
Among the tenants were found 11 automobiles and among the owners 39. Nine of the 261 interviewed have telephones.
Of the 261 farmers interviewed in the country, they were found in two well-to-do. One of them owned land valued at $75,000. Two had farms valued at $50,000. Six had farms valued at $30,000 and four at $20,000.
One of the farmers who owned land largely by means of engaging the lumber business, for which Adams Grove is an important center.
Another operator had farm property worth $40,000, a $5,000 residence, a business property worth $10,000 and a few bonds. He was a man of little education and began with no property. His children have been well educated at Hampton Institute, where his son received special education in agriculture in this county to accumulate wealth. Their good fortune, they say, has been based on work, common sense and thrift.

Who Are "I"
CHICAGO.—About 65 per cent of pullman porters are organized into a labor union, a pullman porter whose name is withheld, told the AFRO-AMERICAN today. By the end of the year over three-fourths of all pullman employees will be organized he said.
"As soon as we find on our cars a man who has not a union card, we proceed to rid the union of the man to be put on a car where there are no union men. As we continue to become organized, this is increasingly difficult." Of men into the union is going on despite the fact that they have been notified by their superintendents that any union men are likely to be dismissed by Pullman porters; unions are not only organized throughout the cast, but also throughout the west. The largest percentage of union men in Omanb. Kansas City and St. Louis now have large numbers of porters in the union.

MOTON'S STORY OF TUSKEGEE HOSPITAL RIOT OUT AT LAST
Kn Klux Planned To Blow Up School Unless He Yielded
K. K. K. DEMANDED A WHITE PERSONNEL
Dr. Moton's Life Threatened. Didn't Answer Phone For 4 Months
The story of Dr. R. R. Moton's heroism at Tuskegee, Ala. Institute has been made public at last two years after the Ku Klux threatened his life and hinted at blowing up the school.
Revelation of the Klan demonstration before the U. S. Veterans Hospital at Tuskegee and its demands for a white personnel including even white nurses and laborers, created through the century two years ago, but the story behind the scene has just been made public in the minutes of the 25th annual session of the Business League-held in 'Ohicago, in August,
The narrative in *Dr. Moton's own words* details how a dlegation in his own office threatened to take a Tuskegee institute unless he signed a document addressed to the President of the United States, declaring that he (Dr. Moton) favored a white personnel in the office. Moton said in part: "The hospital was to have opened last May a year ago with all white people, even to nurses, on land given by Tuskegee to the federal government; it was to have been opened on the first of last May a year ago with an entire white personnel; and the Dr. Moton should hold a position at that hospital above that of labor. I don't know whether you saw it in the news; I saw it in at least three. Well, the hospital didn't open, at least not the first of May; and it never opened and now it has an entire colored personnel.

A recent combine has been effected between Senator Ritchie, Secretary General, and Postmaster General, Karanga to contest President King's election for the third term. Their argument is (1) that it is an unnecessary institution in the country and its tradition; (2) that it is in conflict with the spirit of the Constitution, one of the clauses of which provides that the president be a public service to private life and their places filled by others when the people feel that their continuance in office tends towards autocracy; (3) that the president King, his successors, one and all can claim the same privilege of a third term; and having already the reins of power and in the present dependence of the people, there could be no effective denying of the claim.
Clandestine Method
The last two objections are considered by the sympathizers of the opposition to be based on the fact that he was employed by the banded three of springing the question just as the President left for his health trip to Fernando Po. is severely criticized as unworthy of his time, even though it was set into motion. It is felt, however by many friends of the President that he will evince such patriotism and devotion upon him, a third term rather than set up a precedent by which some unscrupulous person will in the future be thrust upon the country for a perennial office. Meanwhile, President King, who is naturally reticent, has not permitted himself to be drawn to decision of a third term.

PRESIDENT FROM HOWARDFACULTYCANBR'NG HARMONY IN HOWARD UNIVERSITY SITUATION
Alumnus tells why Dr. Jesse Moorland, Retired Y. M. C. A. Secretary is Ineligible. Type of Educator Like John Hope who Built up Morehouse College is Needed. New Leader Must be Well Trained and Capable.
By ALUMNUS
Though the Nominating Committee are holding their peace, the trustees are planning to carry out their plan to give their jobless colleague Dr. Jesse Moorland, the presidency of Howard University, a grant to help him by funding Dr. Moorland on a par with Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler. Whether this is a right-handed compliment to Dr. Moorland or left-handed to Dr. Butler the answer can not tell. Even Dr. Durkee is now quoted as saying that Dr. Moorland is to succeed him. It surely looks like Dr. Moorland from the side-lines.
Fool The Public
All this talk may be invented purely to fool the public, while the real candidate, possibly from West Virginia, may be the supply lady, but odds are heavily in favor of the retired Y. M. C. A. secretary. If the trustees put over this program that cannot be justified by reason, they will be insulted by inspiring Tartarus of the mythical world will be transplanted at Howard University. The real tragedy of the situation lies in the fact that a trustee independence, to pull off a piece of easily fathomable politics that should shame the most unscrupulous demagogue, will surely be punished. He is pensioned Dr. Moorland, his colleagues feel duty bound to find him employment. They have nothing less than the presidency of Howard University to serve up to him onaster.
Quiet But Awkward
The trustees have been quiet but awkward in preparing the way for Dr. Moorland. They began their bungling by setting up an office where professors were to be pensioned. They set sixty-five as the age, and promptly notified all professors concerned of their action. In well public opinion that summer they announced their new policy of retiring professors. The reader may recall the storm that broke forth as a result of this sudden policy, which was obviously aimed at them. The following the tame statement that the rule was not to go into effect until the college year 1926-27.
Notified
The professors concerned were notified that their retirement was to go into effect as of June 30, 1926, and not as of June 30, 1925. Certain trustees boasted that there were no problems they felt that sixty-five years marked the end of usefulness on the part of professors, but it was not the purpose of the board of trustees to put the rule into operation for a long period. The board accepted the explanation, but no retirements were made last year.
At the time of the enactment of this age limit rule the trustees of the college hope of eliminating some of his fancied foes immediately, and others within the next two years. The trustees, who have become a pension monument, and Dr. Balloch, who holds a position which rumor declares an illustrious trustee, will be so soon also related to the illuminated Later, Dean Miller, Professor Tunnel, and a few others of the aged to the palpable failure of Dr. Duncan as an administrator, were to be caught up in the next pension
Nominal President
The point to note especially is that when the trustees learned that Dr. Durkee could not survive, they hired their own policies through a nominal president. Dr. Moorland came to the front, and his colleagues were impressed, but that confounded age limit loomed up as Banquo's ghost. They realized that some one would pull it out of the stacks and embarrass Dr. Moorland who smothers. Rough Spots
The grim humor of the situation is that Dr. Durkee needed the age limit rule to help him over some rough spots, but Dr. Moorland was certain to become entangled in it. He was forced to publish in the eye with a rule that retired professors while it simultaneously advanced trustees. It is vaguely possible that inasmuch as he consistency, they were going to take a chance on proclaiming the doctrine of young men for professorships: old men for presidencies. Atvents, the age limit was a barrier.
Gordian Knot
One happy accomplishment of the Howard trustees is their facility in cutting the Gordian Knot. If it is necessary to topple over a college in order to pull themselves out of a jam, over goes the college. If fresh embarrassment requires the re-establishment of the wrecked college, up it sprouts. If they need to fire professors to satisfy certain ends, out go the professors for the lack of funds. If political necessity dictates the reinstatement of the economic victims, why on the payroll they go. Deans are made collegeless, and colleges are made deanless. In short, any strange happening is possible at Howard when the trustees meet in serious session. Legislation is but a ceremonial toy.
Age Limit Rule
To reconcile Dr. Moorland's possible appointment to the age limit, for which he himself voted, be sure to ask him to winter board meeting. The trustees tacitly agreed not to put into operation the age limit rule — not because they revered old age less, nor because they loved their colleague more. In less metaphorical language, the writer charges the trustees with reshinding their age limit rule, be sure to ask him to make one of their members. (a jobless one) eligible to the presidency of Howard University. If they go through with this bold business, even if they are in the land ought to score them.
Hope War Terminates
It is earnestly hoped that with the appointment of a new president, the House of Osceola houses of Howard University will terminate. The battle has been long and bitter. Already Congressmen have caught some of the flaws in the system, have used them effectively in the halls of Congress. Enemies of the
Negro will be able to embarrass Howard University unless this civil war ends.
The criminal are not making any unreasonable demands. They merely insist that a man of presidential character be elected president of the university, assuming themselves up as the supreme judges of presidential qualifications. They are satisfied with the commonly accepted educational leadership. They insist that a man who has had no training for such a position be eliminated from any serious consideration.
Black-List
They do not wish to name the president, but they have asked that certain names be considered blacklisted for the appointment, and that Dr. Moorland, the Howard Alumni as a body have no confidence in Dr. Moorland. They hold him in high esteem and situation at Howard. They had fondly hoped that he would follow Dr. Durkee's commendable example by resigning; but instead of being, he seems to be ambitious to climb.
Second Pension
It is the prerogative of the trustees to make Dr. Moorland president, but the Alumni will never sit still under such an affiliation. As a result, he will be able to stumble along, through the trustees' indulgence, until he has enjoyed his second pension for a few years, but he can never hope for the respect of the Howard Alumni. Moreover, Dr. Moorland is by no means a favorite of colored people throughout the country. He is virility despairless. He is deeply displeased he persisted in unloading his Jim-crow policies decorated with a Christian name. His election is sure to draw the fire of the Negro press in the North. It is also sure to incite the institution of the country that Howard University will have a virile race leadership under such a president.
Best Service
Dr. Moorland can better serve Howard University by not running for the presidency. He will present sinecure candidates who will easily pierce his armor. His education is sure to receive the first attention. When a comparison is drawn between a slender office and a nationally and internationally inviting of the professors who will have to serve under him. Howard University will furnish a truly pathetic figure. He will answer whether he wears a proud Howard degree or not, should rebuke himself if he continues to sit by an idle spectator of such a raw political game of the real educator, the scholar who has had the training and the experience to perform the duties of the great office of president. Ability should be the only consideration.
Favored Pension
Should Dr. Moorland land his career, he would begin his career handicapped by his own experience. He favored the pension age of sixty-five for professors. His opinion evidently was, at that time, that at the age of sixty-five he would diminish. As member of the board that passed the retirement legislation, he became jointly responsible for the retirement of new without embarrassment, flop over to another opinion which may mean benefit to himself. He also possessed possibilities the trustees will have the least excuse for turning to Dr. Moorland and for this reason they will most likely keep up the bitter fight which the trustees have opposed with the final announcement of the selection. The trustees have the peace and harmony of Howard University, not mean that the Alumni are making any threat. It merely means that if the trustees will only act as an educated public would have to act the question of Howards future is set.
Get Together
If the forces which have been fighting against one another can get together for the good of Howard University, a very few institutions in this country will have the spirit. The writer believes that a united spirit can be effected. The press, which virtually gave Dr. Durkee his first notion of leaving Howard, can heal all the wounds that have been made by the president whose qualifications do not bespeak his fitness.
The Howard Alumni have taken the initiative in setting forth the qualifications of the president they have been called to right of appointment, but should satisfy by all means the measurements which the Alumni have given. The Alumni. positively have no candidate; they have funders. The Alumni. positively have funders. The trustees will result for the trustees to meet these standards.
From The Faculty
Personally, the writer feels that the next president of Howard University should come from the faculty with experience, and that he is difficult to find elsewhere Negro scholars superior to those within. The cause of Howard is likely to become secure, if one of the professors with experience is advanced. No better tonic could be given to such an ill faculty as a merited promotion of this kind. A feeling at Howard, and with cause, that a professor is all but required to show a doctor's degree to win even an insignificant instructorship in the college whereas, no academic qualifications are required to prove that a professor ought to visualize this situation and study its effect upon the morale of the university. What trustee would welcome the introduction of a novice into his professorship as a officer? Bank President
What banker would want a man, whose closest relation with a bank has been only his proximity in passing, in passing in passing the bank? What doctor could sit still, as a member of a hospital staff, when an untrained person was brought into the hospital as surgeon-in-chief? What trained nurse was brought into the hospital when a person absolutely devoid of pedagogical training is placed at the head of an educat-nal institution manned by scholars? It is an unwarmanable experiment to place inexperienced people in the trustees will calm the public

the minute they elect a president whose qualifications can withstand the bombardment which is inevitable. The search is going to be thrown at the qualifications of whatever president is elected. His record is going to be very carefully searched. If his record is not thoroughly searched, the trustees will fasten their grip upon the public. John Hope
To give an idea of how the public feels about this important selection, the writer wants the trustees to know that among the most important of President John Hope of Morehouse College. This recognized educator, with whom many of the Howard School students court through his laudable achievements, has been most generously received by their comments. It is a well known fact that President Hope has made Morehouse College that type of educator, and the real supporters of Howard want the Hope type, if not the man himself.
Five Years Probation
This compliment to the known achievements of John Hope must be come to the writer's preface recognition of some Howard professor, with a probationary tenure of five years, and that they can not possibly miss the

mark if they elect the John Hope type of president. All that is meant by this is an educated man of scholarly attainments, protracted experience in the field of education, accurate pedagogical vision, and acknowledged administrative ability as a schoolman.
Excellent Team
A well trained president and a well trained faculty will make an excellent team. Even a well trained faculty can make a good team; but under no consideration, can a poorly trained president and a well trained faculty make a team. When the president's training has been a joke, the faculty can hardly do otherwise than to hold their self-styled leader in disgust.
If the trustees are eager to realize the possibilities of their college faculty, give these poor suffering professors a leader. There is never such a thing as 100 per cent harmony. It must not be expected until Saint Peter turns his golden key into the lock. But general enthusiasm to reach an objective is possible, whenever the leadership is capable.
Make Howard Safe
Howard University must be made safe for education and the only president who can bring about this desired condition is one who is professionally equipped for the job.

CHURCH PUSSYFOOTS
SAYS BISHOP
WASHINGTON, D. C.—There has been too much pussyfooting in regard to the Klan, Bishop F. J. McConnell, of New York, who has been a pillah church meeting here this week. Bishop McConnell said that the antiracial movement in the United States nullified the efforts of missionaries abroad. The whole Klu Klu Klan movement, he said, is a flat denial of everything the Christian church has therefore stood for. For the greatest difficulty the Christian church has therefore spirit at home. There is no use to preach equality when we violate the spirit of equality at home. The Negro question is agitating more than against the influence that are agitating it. "Many of the Southern people themselves are taking the lead in trying to overcome the scapegoat, and it is regretful that in the North there is a revival of anti-racial feeling. The social implication in the scapegoat has been sufficiently accounted for. Sunday, Bishop R. E. Jones was assigned to preach at Asbury U. E. Church. Bishop Matthew W.

Confidential
"I am, going to say this. This is in strictest confidence; don't put this down (referring to reporter) (Laughter). Tusmuch with that attitude is up. I just wanted to say this. I haven't done at Tuskegee anything that any other self-respecting, intelligent Negro man or woman wouldn't have done. (Applause) There came into my office on at least a dozen occasions committees to work on. There was one very serious meeting. (This I don't want you to put down, meaning the reporter.) It won't do any good; it may have been a good news story a year ago but not now; it's dead matter. The committee came into my office. I don't want any news. I Klay or not; they were a committee of the leading citizens of the community. No, I'm ahead.
"I was told. You are going to receive a delegation from a committee of the leading citizens of this county to bring to you a petition. You must sign it that under no circumstances should there be any Negro physicists and nurses at the Tuscaloosa institution." That committee came, and where on earth they got so many of my pictures with numerous markings and all sorts of things on them—the Department of Justice has some of them. Mr. Howard can tell you where they got them. I don't know. Very good photos too; looked like me, laughter.
"And I wasn't feeling very good naturally; that committee of 12 or 15 people—all white men in the community; one a member of the legislature. We argued for 3 hours. I sat at my desk with my elbows on my desk. They sat around me. I keep the furniture used by our friend. Dr. Washington; some how or other I get inspiration in using that desk. And I sat there and all sorts of things were said to me; all sorts of arguments.
"One man said Booker Washington gave 35 years of his life to build up this school and you are going to, because you are stubborn, refusing to sign a little paper here, you are going to have it all blown up in 24 hours. Another man said, You understand we have the legislature, we make the laws, we have the judges, the sheriffs, the jails; we have the hardware stores, the arms. One man said, A thousand men told us that we will be over at an hour's notice and wipe out the whole (blank) institution if things are not going the way you want them to go. Your life is in our hands.
"I said, Gentlemen, I would be sorry to have anything happen to Tuskegee Institute. I would hate terribly to have anything happen to it, but so far as I am concerned—you say my my life is in your hands—I agree with you; you have my those things; you can my life or you can haven't a pocket or anywhere else. I have a shot gun but Mr. Foster has it down in the Commissary. You can wipe me out; you can take my life, gentlemen, but you can't take my character. (Applause.)
"And I said, If Negroes who are educated and trained for service along all lines can't serve their own people and can't land in that hospital on land given by a Negro school or evangelical school; if they can't practise in that hospital, then you might as well wipe out Tuskegee institute and every other Negro school and institution in the world. (Applause.) The school you have the better of the two, and the one concerned, souls, I have only one life

to give, but I would give a dozen for this cause; and Tuskegee is the best school; the work that Booker Washington began is the best work for you to destroy. If I did that I would be deceiving my people if I thought that hospital did cost around three million dollars and I don't care if the budget is around 8 or 10 hundred thousand a year, it's a Negro hospital and for Negroes and if Negroes can't run, they can be found and know they can be found to do it, gentlemen, as far as I'm concerned you can wipe out the hospital and the school and Mason. (Applause.)
"And from that day the fight was on, on hot. I never swerved; I didn't talk. I talked only to President Harding, Christian, Gen. Hines and a few of my intimate friends who were with me. I could write to my friends. I didn't dare do it. And there were dines. You, you, when death of one would have been a sweet, blessed relief. If it would help the cause if I should be taken, I was rather glad to go.
"My wife said a committee of Southern men called to see her and said: You, husband, is putting out this school and putting his own life away because he refused to do the thing that we have asked him to do. She said: 'My husband isn't going to do it, and I'm not going to ask him to do it and if he dies, I and his children will know died a martyr to you, and I will die with (aphrase) and I will that's her spirit. (Aphrase)."
"I want to tell you another thing: If anybody thinks that any worker—and by the way we have 250 teachers at Tuskegee—if you think anybody was scared on the grounds of Tuskegee during that entire time, you don't know us. Nobody was scared and they stood back of me to a man and a woman. (Applause). And I want to tell you another thing, in that audience that morning there were three men. I thought they were my friends, didn't know then. I didn't trust anybody much. A (few hours after the telephone raid and I was at lunch) I wasn't eating much. I tell you. (Laughter.)

"He said, 'I would like have a white man at the head of that hospital but you impressed us so this morning that if anything happens I know of 25 white men who are going to protect you and your school with their lives.' (Applause.)
A mob was trying to get under way and he gave me the names of the leaders of this mob. I want to tell you this, this is in the family, our white friends in that town were very much embarrassed. Two would tell me: one of them said to me: 'Doctor Moton, I would give $25,000 today if you could be a white man for 24 hours. That's all I want. Just 24 hours. We haven't got the courage you need though he is right, because he is black and it's a shame and a disgrace.' And there were three or four with him and they stood and wept like children."
METHODISTS MAY BAN WHITES AS SPEAKERS
KANSAS CITY, MO.—As the result of a welcome address by the Rev. Marion Waldit, white, pastor of Central M. E. Church, to 1500 delegates and visitors to the C. M. E. General Conference here last week, that body may bar all white speakers in the future.
The Rev. Mr. Waldit said, "the southern white man is the best friend the niggers ever had." Immediately hisses were heard and 1000 people left the hall. Delegates are here from 22 states representing a membership of 450,000. Twelve bishops are in attendance. No new bishops are to be elected.
Outstanding among the recommendations was that the adding equal suffrage in the general conference for women. Others dealt

Protest Beach At Buzzard's Point
WASHINGTON, D. C.—Neval Thomas, president of the Washington Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, reports that despite earnest protests, President Coolidge has signed the bill providing for segregated bathing beaches in Washington. A. A. C. P. is appearing to Representative Martin B. Madden, of Illinois, to see it that the colored bathing beach is located in as favorable a place as the white. The Washington N. A. A. C. P. in its letter to Mr. Madden says: "The same 'eautiful public driveway on the white beach is should be deemed appropriate for both beaches. The spurious argument of building the colored beach at the germ-ridden Buzzard's Point, I am sure, will not deceive you."

BESSIE COLEMAN FELL A MILE
JACKSONVILLE, FLA. — The body of Bessie Coleman, aviatrix who was killed when her plane fell 2,000 feet at the fair grounds here last week, was shipped to Chicago for burial.
Strange part about the accident was that when the plane turned off, Mrs Coleman fell out of the machine which continued in the air for a mile before it came to the ground a wreck.
Her body was a shapeless mass.
The fact that she fell out of the machine is taken by many persons of this neighborhood to indicate play, especially since her companion, William, Whits, white, of Dan, Mrs. who is also an airplane, nearly succeeded in righting the plane before it touched the ground.

NEW YORK—No show or revue imaginable will be able to reach the heights attained by the crept conducted by Mr. Edison Small's Seventh Avenue Paradise on last Thursday night as a final tribute to Miss Florence Mills, our beloved versatile entertainer and star of the playwright of 1926.
Special tables were arranged for Miss Mills, Mr. Leslie, Johnny Hudgins, the Blackbirds of 1926 company and the press. Charles Konson originally broke the record with some red hot dance numbers followed by Small's sna, py entertainers. Elmer (Jazbue) Hillard, Helen Leen, Dot Crane, Edna Taylor, and Bess Woodson, proved the fact of featuring company numbers.

In recent years makeup has been recognized as an art, and not merely the slapping on of grease paint and other cosmetics without rhyme or reason. Our artists, as a whole, seem to have recognized the fact, but those who play it well, like Audiness, are not. When the stage is seated, as they are in the little theatres, close to the stage; too much makeup gives the face of the performer a hideous appearance when improperly applied and not toned down. Just enough to suit the stage, too much makeup is applied. Audiness could also STUDIOCLE along with less blackfaces and red and white lips, which so many of the self-labeled cosmetics use.

Edith Wilson as a blues singer

pantomined and was a riot.
Three Eddies
Not to be outdone, the "Three Eddies" came and left in an uproar. Winifred as the chink and Billy Mills as a sailor, bring memories of "Dixie to Broadway" that was more than satisfactory. Jones and Jones, who wrote the opening act are two comedians that art too good to try to put in print. A fast-paced comedian, set humour, make a swell background, these girls not only form the background but go in for a lion's share of aplause, especially in an impersonation of Hudgins.

The prising, city and the barn the moment of thousands who have visited the shows. His work is said to be not a matter of antics, but is finished. The personnel of the band is: D. C.

The hand is one of the features of the mid-way and side-shows, all of whom are capable of doubling, and producing very enjoyable shows. The crowds who see them at each performance face a their enyency security. D. Officer, director, is said to be a bitter foe of alcohol or any other vice that would taint to impair the morals of the men and retard their ability. This week's schedule is: May 10, Phelpsfield, 14.

After a somewhat intensive campaign colored operators are to be placed in the Roosevelt and Douglass Theatres in New York City, and there is every ground for belief that the Lincoln will follow suit. From what can be learned the Gem, Renaissance, Orient and Lafayette are already employing colored men in their booths.
Overzealous Drummers
It would be a priceless benefit to dancers if drummers mixed a little COMMON sense with their own. The dancer's steps should not be drowned by that necessitous clack, on wood blocks that accompany them. Visiting orchestras demonstrate how this should be done by having the accompaniment subdued by the entire unit, thus permitting the customers to hear the faintest sound made by the dancer. The intent of the drummer is to help, but it is only a hindrance.
Tony Langston Out
Tony Langston, lately theatrical writer on the "Chicago Defender," and more recently of the "Chicago Bee" is understood to have resigned from the latter paper to devote all his time to sales promotion of a new adding machine. His grim will be keenly felt by the profession as a whole, all of who counted him as friend and counselor. Langston will be leck Cooper, a most worthy successor.
Lately J. A. Jackson's valuable theatrical comment in the "Washington Trilune" has been greatly reduced, which is also to be regretted. Jack, like Langston was a guide post and broadcaster for the professionals. The contributions of these walters were intriguing upward stride of the artists who last five years has been phenomenal, and they owe no small amount of this to the writers who have encouraged and sympathized with them. Romeo Daugherty of "The Amsterdam News" and Sylvester Russell of "The Chicago Press" are the only ones active in the project.

Lack of professional direction marred the splendid efforts of the Douglass High School Pupils in their revue on Friday night. Two primary essentions, "going on" and "coming off", were terrifying bands which is to be regretted for the sake of artistry. The handling of the good performance was savagely muffed, further detracting from the good performance which I KNOW could have been obtained with the wealth of talent available.
Someone wah responsible for the stupidity noted; Who that someone was is irrelevant, but none the less shameful. Teamwork was wooely lacking in the accompaniment also, it seeming to have mined to have the best possible sound and add to the chaos and missing cues. Notwithstanding these impediments, all of the participants tried, despite the handcaps, and proved that they had the power to conquer over difficulties. All of which should cause those who are won't to haugh and sneer at the professional, whose efforts means FOOD AND DRINK) to pause and TEMPER TICE WITH MARY.

FLOORS MANAGER AND HEAD USHER
NEW YORK—Purchasing two seats for Loew's Theatre, 125th street, Dick Thomas, of this city, and Charles Brooks, a Howard student, were informed that they must either take balcony seats or accept the refund of their money. Refusing both offers they started for the orchestra, but were interrupted by a woman usher, Brooks, who is fair, was permitted to proceed, but Thomas had to dispose of three ushers and the manager had to be called for by his ticket. A riot call brought six policemen, who arrested Thomas. Before Judge Vittile, sitting in the Night Court, the prisoner was found guilty of disorderly conduct and sentence was suspended.
The case has been placed in the hands of Attorney Lamar Perkins, who has been instructed to bring both criminal and legal charges. The theatre has made similar attempts to segregate colored patrons. The house is in the centre of the Harlem district.
GROTTO, T. YA. -- Allen's Brownskin Revie closes this week at Bramwell after nine weeks' engagement without the loss of a day. The 16 people and eight piece band will join the Glenn Miller Shows. H.

And it is further said that those who resented being scaled in the gallery were forced to purchase box seats at an enormous price. I am told Mr. MHITON STARR that you answered, when questioned about your KLANNISH tactics, that "poor attendance" was the cause of your unapparent and insulting arrent to your regular patrons in a theatre erected solely for the accommodation of colored players. I have repeatedly questioned and challenged your good faith toward colored people, always asking if you were merely exploiting them.

"Provides more thrills than any other show in town. It is what the average movie audience eats up. So many thrills it is difficult to say which is the greatest."
The San Francisco Bulletin says:
"A Masterpiece. There is romance, drama, tragedy, mystery. It is a picture to fulfill every expectation. A real achievement."
The Hollywood News says:
"Received a tornado of enthusiastic applause. Weirdly fascinating, a tense drama. It holds the audience with a grip of steel."
The Philadelphia Daily News says:
"One of the weirdest and most fascinating photo-dramas the films have thus far produced. The audience stood up and applauded, a thing almost unheard of in this city."
The Washington Star says: "Beyond question one of the most thrilling pictures ever presented on the screen."
Post Express says: "Should not be missed by anyone who makes it a point to see the real features of the year. Hundreds held spell-bound. Created all sorts of discussion."

BOYCOTT USED AS WEAPON IN SEGREGATION
Whites Threaten Ban On
Milk Company Who Serv-
ed Nw Race Tenant
POLICEMEN INSULTS
WOMAN IN FAMILY
Officer Who Lived In Block
Said To Have Made Unofficial Visit
Boycotts which effectively caused milk and ice companies to refuse to serve a new race tenant and police intimidation were some of the experiences reported by Mrs. Ada Lee Addison, who moved five weeks ago into the 2400 block of Woodbrook avenue. This boycotty, according to Mrs. Addison, has also caused a refusal to odor garbage and delivery of commodities from a firm from which she had bought goods for more than a year. Injunction Fails Woodbrook avenue came into the segregation timelight several months ago when white residents sought to obtain an injunction against renting an apartment. It later developed that the legal course of segregation would not be effective owing to the fact that all white owners in the block did not subscribe to the a-
The weeks ago the house at 2426 was offered for occupancy and sale and was occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Addison, her mother-in-law Mr. and Mrs. Walton Lee, her brother and his wife. I was instituted. While the trouble of a disorderly nature was experienced by the family on entering the residence there were threats by groups of young men and women. Mrs. Addison was not until an accumulation of unusual happenings, she said, that she noted that the neighbors had decided to make an accumulation of unusual happenings. The first of these happenings came when she says, the driver of the Western Maryland suddenly stopped in Maryland and the driver was requested to do so. She then ordered milk from the Fairfield Dairy and the driver for that concern tranly told her that her neighbors objected to milk there and be refused to do so. Mrs. Addison then telephoned Mr. Roberts at the Fairfield Dairy office and asked to get milk store temporarily.
This was followed by the refusal of the ice man to deliver ice and for five weeks, according to Mrs. Addison, the garbage man has passed her gate without taking accumulated trash which on several occasions she called to his attention.
Police Visit
What she called intimidation by a police officer living in the same block was also reported by Mrs. Addison. This officer whose name is McClain, she says, lives at 24 p.m. Shortly after they moved in he came to the house and engaged her in the following conversation:
"I train. Well, I guess you know you are regarded as block-breakers, don't you?"
Answer: No.
McClain: Well, you are "kept" women, aren't you?
To this Mrs. Addison, said she indignantly replied that she was "kept" by her own husband and had been so kept for several years.
McClain: How many of you work?
Answer: My sister, my husband and my sister's husband work. My sister works at a Charles street shop and I work by special appointment as a chiropodist.
Meetain: Are you buying or are you paying rent.
Answer: We are expecting to buy the place.
McClain: A.. you not staying here rent free to break up the bloom.
Hrs. Addison answered by showing her rent receipt book.
ling her rent receipt book.
It developed during this conversion that this officer had kept tab on her rent receipts of the house since its occupancy.
Calls Guither
Following this incident, Mrs. Addison says she called up police headquarters and this call was later followed by a visit from a lieutenant who stated that she would more intercept the would be arrested in the occupancy of the house so far as the law could protect her.
When asked about the refusal of the Fairfield Darry driver to deliver milk, Roberts, an official of the company admitted to having Mrs. Darry to buy her milk temporarily at a store due to the hostility of her neighbors, but that he had also stated that it was the policy of the firm to treat all customers alike and the order was given on only some effort to adjust the matter.
At the Western Maryland office it was stated that any refusal to deliver milk was unauthorized there.

Matrimonial Life Term Replaces Jail Sentence
Charles Butts, Accused of Larceny, is Given Life Mate As Warden, By Judge Stanton
Charles Butts, 22, 916 Argile avenue, is lucky or unlucky, depending upon the point of view, or perhaps depending on Miss Florence Howard, 21, 1512 Drulid Revenue, who is rescued by jail jailer, by taking of him as warden for life in the probation department when Butts was haled before Judge Stanton in the Criminal Court and there where love is concerned. Miss Howard made up her mind forthwith, immediately, Drulid Hill avenue, of stealing wearing wearing apparel there was sufficient evidence against her being in the city Rouge.
that such a young woman as described by counsel would still want to keep her a chance to make up her mind.

But what many charges where love is concerned? Miss Howard made up her mind forthwith, immediately, Drulid Hill avenue, of stealing wearing wearing apparel there was sufficient evidence against her being in the city Rouge.

Declines Jackson Offer To Take Up Appointment With White House
SAYS PRESENT RECORDER SHOULD RESIGN FIRST
Dr. Ernest Lyon announced this week that he will not use his influence to have Wawor W. McGuinn appointed recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia.
This announcement, he said, is a reply to the request of William P. Jackson, national Republican committeeman of the state, to make a visit to the White House to state to President Coulidge, that the appointment of Mr. McGuinn would be accepted in accordance to Dr. Lyon, the present incumbent Arthur G. Froe, Republican, of West Virginia, would have to resign before he would feel himself in position to work for Mr. McGuinn.
Mr. Froe is in office, is a good Republican and is giving satisfactory service. However much trouble he has with federal position under this administration of casting one perfectly member of disliration. I do not see the reason the party in order to place another
"If the administration desires to do something for Maryland, why should the Democrats do it? Of the Democrats who are holding positions in Washington and make their places available for Maryland, who have worked for the party?"

"I got very thin—I went from 126 pounds down to less than 100. My mother had long been a user of Cardul and she knew what a good medicine it was for this trouble, so she told me to get some and take it. I sent to the store after it and before I had taken the first bottle I began to improve.
"My side hurt less and I began to improve in health. The Cardul acted as a fine sense and the I do not feel like the same person. I am so much better. I am well now. I have gained the pains and am still feeling. My sides do not trouble me at all."

"Why did he shoot me?" mounted the girl. According to her story, she was standing on the above corner when Dupkins, whom she had met on several occasions, approached her and yelled to her to get off the corner.
When he flashed a pistol, she ran, but before she could get away he fired twice, one of the bullets striking her in the back. She was removed to the hospital by William Carter, 1552 Leslie street. Duppins made his escape. A good description was given by eye witnesses and police are scouring the city for him.

MRS. WHEATLEY ELECTED HEAD OF FEDERATION
REITERATE CHARGES OF ATTEMPTED GRAFT
In a high tensioned session of the Parent-Teacher Association, punctured frequently with explosive bickering, and lasting until after midnight, Mrs. Laura D. Wheatley was elected president for the ensuing year by a vote of 30 to 16 over Mrs. Lillian Lottier, Tuesday night at School 104.
By agreement, the unopposed state recommended by the nominating committee was also elected and a report of Mrs. Joseph B. Muson, in which she again ignorantly scored the president was received and referred to an auditing committee. The charges referred to in the report grew out of an alleged attempt by Mrs. Wheatley to collect $45 commission for herself from Miss Augusta Savage on monies paid her by the Art Exhibition committee. This incident which was brought to the surface by a letter of protest sent by 'Miss Savage to the committee, developed opposition which came to a head some time ago at the home of Mrs. Carr and demanded that Mrs. Wheatley resign. This she refused to do and was reprimated a month ago at a meeting.
$205.38 Balance
Report of the Art Committee showed that there Art had been collected a total of $142.36 and that with $60.36 of the budget, we would left in the treasury a balance of $205.38.
A recommendation by the Executive Committee that the balance be increased to $215.38 with gloss High School library, was referred, following a long discussion, to a committee from the federation and school principals for final action.
Report of the president, which outlined the achievements under her administration showed that the budget had three years slightly more than $60 had been received and expended. In a signed statement, Mrs. Laura D. Wheatley said:
"I think my constituents for their hearty support, I feel that the election of officers last night was a supreme test of whether not to constructive principles of the Teacher Clubs would be sustained.
It was gratifying that the membership was present in LARIES NUMBERS and that the vote was
"The result of last night's meeting was not only a victory and a complete vindication for me, but a victory for the constructive principle of the Federation of Parent Teacher Clubs." Mrs. Sallie B. Mason who led the fight against Mrs. Wheatley said Wednesday. "I'd rather be right than president. The fit it is is all about the people it is all about of us. We carried eight schools which is no inconsiderable number." Mrs. Lillian Lottier made the following statement: "I am the happiest defeated candidate this city has ever known.

BLACK SOX REALIZE
PET AMBITION SUNDAY
Win Doubleheader
"KID" STRONG SHINES
IN OPENING TILT, 9 To 2
Another capacity crowd saw the Baltimore Black Sox realize their pet ambition by defending the Bubba Bubba in Barry, Pa., in both ends of a doubleheader, winning the first game 9 to 2 and the second, 11 6.
The weather was warm and an estimated throng of over 10,000跑 over in the outfield was a bit too much. Before the game wagers were even, but when fans saw that Strong and Rojo were the Sox battery, odds were 3 to 1 on the Sox.
"Buck" Gets A Homer
63
The Kid pitcher made his debut by hurting a masseuse in support, was almost flawless.
John Beckwith game into his own by getting a hit in the first game and two doubles. The king of sluggers got the three outs in the second, one being a double. "Babe" Ruth Wilson was officially credited with getting the first game, two being doubles and two singles in the second, one for two bases.
Winters Kaycod
The Sox showed their powerful strength in the very first inning by jumping in the first inning, in the first inning, scoring three runs. Winters was knocked out in the seventh after he had been rapped for 13 hits. Henry came to his rescue allowed three hits in the eighth which scored
Strong
Strong was master for the situation thru out. He struck out seven allowers, and Thomas were the heavy centers for the champs. Carr batt, ed perfectly in the second tilt getting three hits in as many times! Besides five chances without an error, Connie Day surprised his fond admirers by hitting an even 100 in the first game, grabbing the center fence. Also not getting a safety in the second. Day took three chances in sensational style, once grabbing a drive while shooting all in one motion.
Sox In Lead
The Sox took the lead in the first with one out when Day was given a free ticket. Wilson doubled followed by another two-jelly hit. Beckwith scoring the two runners and crossing the rubber himself on his Johnson. Hildale got their first run in the third when Stevens singled, stole second and scored on a double by Carr. The Sox scored the third in the fourth and two in the eighth. An attempted rally by Hildale in the ninth netted them one run. Thomas hit for two bases, Washington and Stevens retired at first, Santop, batting for Henry singled to Robbins. Stevens.
SECOND GAME
The second game found Camp-
bil for Hildale and a long toe-
toe kick for the Schoen.
Bill for Hildalo and Mungin towing the mound for the Sox. He took the Sox, 10 to S. walks proved their undoing. Campbell passed five and Ryan seven. Mungin walked out of the box in the second and Manager Taylor sent Britt to the stand. This was Britt's first game since he came from California. He allowed one free ticket and sent five to the

AS CUBANS SHARE TWO
WITH HILLDALE
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. — Hilldale divided their two game series with the Cubs on Thursday but Saturday found the Stars coming back strong to take the win. Dilhgo, Cuban first sacker, was the feature in the first game. He drove out three singles and a double in four hits, knocked in the third with a single in the eighth. He carried again in the second game by clubbing out three hits, a single and two home runs. He got six runs in the second series. Mackey sent one over the boards with Carr on first and Ours accounted for the win with a drive inside of the fence. While the Cubans only collected eight hits, Hilldale pitchers, eight bases on balls and two errors made matters easy for the Stars from the boots that edged into the column of errors, the Dainies played bad baseball and were guilty of several errors.

The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly
NEW TORK, N. T.—The Bacharach Ranch Giants, under the management of Dick Lundy, made their first appearance at the Protectory Oval, Sunday, in a game that saw the game of a doubleheader from the Lincoln Giants.
Claude Grier was in his best form and came near pitching a no hit game for the Bacharach Giants. He did not hit a strike out eight men during the game. His teammates got 8 runs off "Rube" Chambers, making the final score 8-2. Glimor Wine. In the second game Manager Lloyd tried out one of his "husher" pitches, a boy by the name of Glimor from Sanford, N. C. Glimor made good by winning an 11-7 victory for the Lincoln.
Although the same was a batting spree on both sides, Glimor showed plenty of speed and ability as a pitcher. He is a big rany fellow and under the tutelage Lloyd should devise a strategy. A batting rally by the Lincoln in the sixth inning featured the second game. Roy Roberts was knocked out and the visitors used every pitcher in their strings to retire. Nine runs were made during this inning.
The Lincolnins are showing a gradual improvement and hope to be able to stop the winning streak in the Oceans Challenge and the Harrisburg Giants when they come to Protectory Oval for two games this Sunday.

HAMPTON, VA. — Petersburg's hitherto undefeated Association diamondlets wavered and broke beekeeping records in 2012. Edward Hargrove, the Seasiders' invincible moundman, and lost a thrilling baseball game here by the Air-tight fielding and heavy work with the bamboo stick enabled Hampton to claim a clean and dealing, which has been on an upward trend since the first of the season, came to a climax today in his last game. Four years ago he broke through with sensational fielding. Now he makes his bow as one of the most dependable twirlers in the C. I. A. In the first inning, Williams, at short, nailed out one of Allen's hooks far into center field for the second fielding on Armstrong Field this season.

Wallace came to the rescue of Hudson and pitched a good game. Colson allowed only seven hits, while his teammates pounded out thirteen hits off of Hudson and Wallace.
The feature of the game was the sensational one hand catch made by Lano when Smith drove the ball into deep right field. Cook of St. Paul, batted well getting three hits out of four times to the plate.

ALPHAS STAGE BIG EDUCATION WEEK DRIVE
"Go To High School; Go To College Week" To End Here Sunday
CHARLES STEWART
TO ADDRESS MEETING
WCAO
Cars decorated with "stay in school" stickers, school children wearing badges, talks, slides and a mass meeting are all part of the "Go to high school; go to college" campaign of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity being celebrated this week in 50 cities of the country.
In Baltimore thousands of students in the elementary, junior high and high schools as well as the several hundred Morgan College undergraduates are to be seen this week sporting the badges pledging themselves to remain in school as long as they can. Over a hundred and fifty automobiles owned by Negroes in the city are sporting the bright yellow stickers which say that "it pays to stay in school"
In each of the schools in the city talks are being given urging the boys to room until they have completed as much of the formal education as their means will permit. The high school there is to be a mass meeting at which the principal speaker will be Rev. Charles E. Stewart, pastor. H. C. Church of Washington, D. C. Rev. Stewart was formerly connected with the Baitil A. M. E. Conference and is widely known. The music at the mass meeting will be furnished by the Post Office Glee Club and some of the members of the local choir. The fraternity hopes by the mass meeting to reach a great many of the parents of the boys and girls and to point out to them the importance of the youth of the race by a thorough education. The meeting is announced as free with no collection taken. The entire expense of the meeting is to be borne by the fraternity.
A program of music and a short talk will be broadcast Sunday afternoon from Station VCAC on the campus, and will furnish participants of the week's activities. This initial effort is but a part of a nation-wide drive being conducted by the Alpha fraternity in more than half a hundred cities. The fraternity was about twelve years old when the educational campaign once each year in each of the cities where its 3,000 members had chapters. This is the seventh such effort and the work of the fraternity communities where there are no formal chapters of the fraternity. Educators all over the country have commended this constructive effort. The cooperation of the Board of School Commissioners was secured through the efforts of the Supervisor, Francis M. Wood, and permissible speakers to place speakers in each of the schools of the city to urge the children to stick to their books. Talks of the schools began Wednesday of this
The local chapter of the Alpha fraternity has placed the conduct of the Baltimore educational drive in the hands of a committee headed by Jimmy H. Ogrengren, Charles Jackson, P. D. Ogrengren, Gobert E. Macheb, R. Maurice Moss, W. Berkley Butler, are assisting on the general committee in arrangements. The state charismanship of the funds is the secretary of the David Hill Y. M. C. A. Dr. James H. Hilburn is the president of the local group.

Mrs. Billups is founder and presi

hopefuls. She saw an advertisement

Billups answered the ad and Mr.
Billups showed up on the scene
After a little courthouse they were
married on April 28.
Happily Married
"We are very happy together," said Mrs. Billups to a reporter, "and very much in love. I answered the ad for a lark, but everything has turned out all right," stated "Mother" Billups. This is her second marriage; her first husband died several years ago.
Mrs. Billups reluctantly gave a brief history of her life and modestly refrained from emphasizing the tremendous sacrifices she has made in the long period of years she has been caring for motherless children.
She was left an orphan at the age of six and started her life's work at 16. Her early years were spent in New York and other northern centers where she took an interest in children left without parents or means to secure their welfare and education. According to her story, it all began from a dream. At 16 she dreamed of caring for little children and immediately began to provide for little orphans in her immediate neighborhood.
Began With 8 Children
Although born in Berkley, Va., where she did quite a big of charity work, most of her years were spent in the military, and she became actively engaged in Baltimore 616 Lannville street 14 years ago, starting with eight children. All of these years were spent in the Army, and Billips is a preschool and many days she spent preaching in various churches and at night washing and

Thoughts Of The Founder
Thoughts Of The Founder
"Friends, in the future, remember that to a very large extent, if the race is to get a hearing, if it is to be defended, if the good side of the race is to be shown up, it is the Negro newspaper that has got to do the work."

Go To School
Speakers throughout the country this week are carrying the message of "Go to High School, Go to College" to parents and school chil-
Leisure time weighs heavily on the hands of the uneducated. They are unhappy unless they are "going somewhere." Education is the way to culture as well as to material and moral well being. Education costs something in education and time and energy, but its dividends in culture and citizenship always repay a thousand fold.
Moton-Hero
The story of Dr. R. R. Moton's fight for a colored personnel at the U. S. Veterans' Hospital, planted on another page of his book, American histories a chapter in American history, recording, even though more than two years have elapsed since it happened.
It is fortunate indeed that the narrative known to have only to light in the minutes of the 25th annual session of the National Business League and then set down for all time in his own words, who threatened his life and the destruction of Tuskegee Institute unless he petitioned to the president requesting an all-out attack. There was himself ready for the sacrifice. Astonished to find a man who valued his 'honor' more than 'his life', these men, some of whom himself buried. There was no Tuskegee was safe, so were Dr. Moton and his family. A colored personnel efficiently administers Tuskegee Veterans' Hospital today because this man staked
Dr. Motens' life is an inspiration to the Negro of the North who is often called the "Mother of the South." It is more of an example to the Negro of the South, who can learn this great lesson. Here he ablaze the enemy and proclaim, but the greatest of these is hunger.
Judge O'Dunne
Is Judge Eugene O'Dunne, sitting in the Criminal Court, beginning to slip backward? **A** more Supreme Bench began his judicial career a few months ago by handing out long time penitentiary sentences to the court. But recently he imposed a term of 15 years in prison for harceny. This week in an ordinary raid, the judge abbreviated to 30 days. The defendant in this case, reported in another column is 25 years old, the child plaintiff. According to the testimony of the story room, locked the door and accomplished his purpose. The AFRO-AMERICAN would like the inmate in Bali more the same. It will be considered a serious offense. It is always reported so when one of the parties is white and the other colored, and it brownsise color not be affected if it happens. We had high hopes that Judge O'Dunne might prove the terror to wrong-doers he is to thieve, heighten and wife-beaters. We still hope.

Penn Primaries
Governor Pinchot, of Pennsylvania, candidate for U. S. Senate in the Republican primaries next Tuesday appointed a junior in a small town to be justice of the peace.
There were other candidates better prepared for the job, but the Governor turned them down because they are supporting his rivals in the campaign. As a result, our junior politician will desert his broom and dust pan for the bench.
Last week another candidate for the Pennsylvania senatorship, George Wharton Pepper, secured the appointment of Mr. E. Washington Rhodes, editor of the Philadelphia Tribune, as assistant U. S. district attorney for that city. Mr. Rhodes had been admitted to the bar only three weeks before.
Both of these new office holders owe their positions to the fact that the gentlemen who made them are after votes. A politician after votes is like a bear after honey. It takes a good deal to discourage him.
Independence at the polls is the salvation of any minority group of voters. The politician worries more about the 10,000 voters who are independent than about the 100,000 who can be relied upon to vote a straight party ticket. Maryland Republican leaders who have been unable to secure a single federal appointment in or outside of the state might learn the primaries in Pennsylvania.
Fast And Pray
The committee of the General Conference Methodist Episcopal Church, South, in session at Memphis on Friday for unification with the M. E. Church North, this week adopted prayer and fasting as its program in working out a settlement of the problem. News dispatches declare that the committee realizing that suspicion and distrust is pervading the concession of unification decided it would "go to the Lord" for guidance. The situation terminals of the situation remind us of the consequences that went to the Master and asked "What the answer was go sell all that you have and give it to the poor. Foolowfully, for he had great riches. The two branches of the M. E. Church, North and South, divided sixty years ago over slavery. To the race issue still keeps them alive.
The M. E. Church, North, regards the Negro as a brother, and has elected two of the brothers in the church to serve as pastor. Their church has set its former colored membership apart into a separate denomination with which it has further unification committee of the M. E. Church will go to the Master in prayer this week and will ask what it shall do to be saved. Do not answer the answer will go back—“Go get rid of all the race hatred that you have and be a friend and brother of all races.” Do not side sorrowfully, for it has great prejudice—against—darker—peoples. News Item—111 delegates from 24 of the 33 annual conferences adopt a policy of civilization of the subject of unification at this time cease.
Grubbing Stumps
(Preston News Service)
"Once upon a time" the land where you are fertile fields was covered with trees. These trees were cut into logs. Some of these logs were used for lumber and some rolled together and burned. Then some were left up to vex and hinder the dwarves; there could be little pleasure or profit in farming until the stumps were removed; and this process is called grubbing. So every life is a field; in it are trees, natural hindrances; and the cultivation of our life fields depend upon the process of grubbing the stumps, after trees have been removed. Selfishness is one of the dangerous stumps that hinder the plowman's shaft. Egotism is another successful cultivation of life's field.
Envy incited by the progress of another and covetousness, the protege of envy are disgruntled obstructive and uselessness in stump on which a plow has been dulled, and many others broken: Self-conceit obstruct the plow and hinders the cultivation of the field of life. After recognition of the existence and the qualitative character of the cultivation in these fields, the grubbing and elimination of them will require patience and diligence and unceasing toll. But let it be remembered that without the elimination of these other stumps, successful cultivation in life's fields would be impossible.

John Phillip Hill Will Support Bill
To Erect Monument in the U. S.
to Colored Soldiers
To the Editor:
H. J. Resolution 45 is a bill to create a commission to secure plans and designs for a monument or memorial building in Washington, to the memory of our colored soldiers and sailors of all wars. I am supporting this bill and will do what I can to urge its message.
I have just been looking over some political speeches, and was surprised to see that in 1995 on the disfranchisement amendment, I said this, "the only person who can be president is the present primary Colonel Humphreys, former Mayor Browning and I are running on a platform the American Freedom is the Issue."
Personally, I do not think that such publications are worthy of so capable a man as its editor. Crimes inflicted on people without, without always mentioning names, as in the case of an ex-superintendent of schools, an unfortunate school girl who shoplifted, with numbers of shoplifers here in the Christmas season without any names being mentioned.
And cases of misdemeanor among impulsive young persons are often appeared in the press, with many men coming to see her, but not full and especially the DETAILS.
I have often heard this comment in many places and it voices my sentiment precisely.

East Baltimore Pleas For "Close Ranks."
To the Editor:
A majority of the Parent Teacher Federations has voted to retain Mrs. Laura D. Whately for another a fractional fight of four months.
This is an appeal for harmony and close cooperation. May the victors carry off their spoils in a gracious manner. May the teachers and resolve not to let the great work of increasing educational facilities lag.
There are many things to be done in the playgrounds and 10 through playgrounds are badly needed. Supervisor Wood needs assistance, a colored member is needed on the Board of Education, and close ranks.
You Cannot Settle a Moral Question by Votes. It Wrong to Steal or Try, to Steal. A Million Votes to the Contrary Cannot Change the Ten Commandments To the Editor:
The Baltimore Federation of Parent Teacher Associations indicated it did not believe very strongly charges of improper conduct against Mrs. Laurie Whtley, a president by selecting been to office.
The AFRO printed these charges in full with a great flourish of red and black ink, and affairs in the Federation have been held at a standstill while investigations have taken place.
The vote of the Federation expresses its confidence in Mrs. Whtley. Will the AFRO be big enough to take back its statements now that Mrs. Whtley's resignation is for the best interest of the schools?

DAY BY DAY
WITH WILLIAM N. JONES
As an integral part of that great group of men and women throughout the world who earn a living by brow, you must be looking on in grim hopefulness white laburers in England lock horns with one of the mightiest governments on the face of the world. Some time ago in this column we pointed out the profound lesson we should learn from the labor situation in Britain. Today the tragedy of the young man who "unless lies the head that wears the crown" frightful must be the heads of the small group of people in this world who live off the sweat and loot of the wealthy, such succeeding year sees the approach of the day when special privileges and its necessary corollary, economic oppression, will be the result. Few leavers in the Negro group realise how closely allied are their racial troubles and the general problems which underly such an upheaval as has taken place in Eng-
Strangely enough the same influences in the North which fought for freedom of the Negro which under the surface was really a 'war against' the cheap labor of the South. Smith now help to condone a segregation of the race which keeps it in an economic corner of servile labor and low wages. Here in America it is an oligarchy of highly organized capital; in England they come into that oligarchy by right of birth.
On the surface it seems that miners in the British collieries who now receive an average weekly work hour (from 12 to 18 hour) eight day, refused to submit to a further reduction of wages and lengthening of working hours. They did not and not a minute on time" says "Emperor" Cook, radical leader of the miners, and the government force into a pocket, accepts the challenge the world's greatest labor war is staged. Long distance thinkers, however, will see deep down under the surplus of workers and more far reaching meaning than the mere wages of miners and their working hours. The world's greatest greedy Britain, does go to such death grips for a few patty dollars. The whole economic system of the civil war economy will move up or back a peg dependent upon that outcomes of that labor war. Which ever side wins, the impact of victory will be felt on its force. It will be felt on way or the other in the bottoms of the Mississippi Valley as well as the outposts of civilization in India and the rich hinterland of tropical Africa.
The future wages of John Smith working in a Baltimore fertilizer plant and Joseph Jones working in Arkansas will some day respond to the outcome of that grim and sinister struggle in which the Tories seem to have deceived to set its account with the growing tide of the English labor movement.
Prejudices and customs die hard. But now and again the accumulated forces of human progress burst out at some point. MOMS have the DIVINE right to rule and make others work as slaves for them. Then came the revolution in which the masses acquired their present parliament. They may take a general strike to dig out the roots of that group which still believe they have a BLOOD right to KEEP THE MASS. ES IN ECONOMIC SLAVENRY THAT THEY MIGHT ESCAKE WORK. The whole English economic system is built upon an imperialistic idea that there are families born to eternal luxuries while on the earth, families born to eternal drudgery. The tragedy of the whole thing is that in the present development of the world, we cannot have wholesale luxuries for a few idle people and drudgery for many working people.
Big royalties which go to support the idle English gentlemen of leisure and the gentry born to the profit of the basic industries. When these basic industries are not opulent enough to pay both, as they are not at the present in England, they must be MUST LIVE ON LOW WAGERS.
Really Means
Of Humanity
• It is but natural that miners who had to support their families on $12 per week would wonder how THAT WAS A LARGE COUNTRY ESTATES AND LUXURIES FOR MEN AND WOMEN WHOSE ONLY CLAIM TO IT WAS THAT THEY WERE SONS OF LORD THIS OR LADY THAT.
Revolution
Whenever a submerged group makes an open effort to squeeze through to a better place in the sun, they are vulnerable to an anarchy. But the world has progressed only when some such group did so.
From where these lines are written can be seen the lowermost men in the Warner League, the mute evidence of the reverence in which we hold ONE MAN WHO HEADED A REVOLUTION.
If all the men in the league mark the height of great men and women in the world could well be seated in a straight line, they would form a row of revolutionists, men and women who LEFT the BEATEN FOR.
Perhaps more than with any other factor, the problem of the Negro is wrapped up in the present struggle to unencapitate the masses.
Religious protestism carried on the light for freedom for ages, but it was also by the subsidies of capital and the lack of the spirit of personal sacrifice. The labor movement now carries the banner of human liberty, and the race question has served to prevent anything like the solidarity obtained in England, it has been the labor candidates who are most outspoken for the universal rights of men. Negro leaders cannot long ignore this fact in marshaling forces. The government uses powder, if for no other reason than to surmise what we would do, and how we would fare, if ever industry in this country was tied up for any length of time.
What Will We Do With Talent
Said the proud father of a girl in the recent Douglas High school review, he wanted chance to utilize her talent but? he said gloriously "she is planning to teach because it is about the only decent thing open around her." This father is wrong, of course, for there is plenty of opportunity for the exceptional youth who is willing to know about the question raised is one which keeps many parents wake nights. What will be the final destination of boys and girls who amused you at that review? The same question might be asked of any similar group with wondering concern. How can the problem of education and training, but we have not yet begun a practical solution of vocational guidance and distribution? Here in Baltimore, for instance, many big concerns are actually narrowing instead of broadening their policy of employment of colored
Here is a question more vital to the future than many of those we are giving active consideration to. We need teachers, the teacher association, for the Urban We cannot say too much or too persistently that the most damaging drawbacks of the group can vanish in the face of the equality in industrial opportunity.
What Would Happen If You Died?
Walking out of the Northwestern police station Sunday, a young woman, arrested on a charge of betraying her family, between tears, "that it would not have been this way if father had not died." Then she told a story of how she had had died suddenly and how that the family had broken up and she finally went as a young girl out to play. Many tragedies in life begin when the father of a family dies without giving thought to the financial and social organization of those left dependent. Few men in business, even, leave it in such state of organization that it can survive their death. The family is organized and protected against death. SIT DOWN SOME TIME AND FIGURE OUT YOUR FAMILY IF YOU SUDENLY DIED.
Heard and Seen In Baltimore
Heard and Seen In Baltimore
We joined the hordes that swarmed into the New Douglas High School Thursday night to the third annual revue to watch our young hopefuls strut their sturt.
Long before the show started 600 mothers know that if Lew Leslie or any other of the broads brought their children there to lamp their son and daughter, Johnnie Hudgins and Florence Mills would be out of a job.
Of course this performance was carloops and toonails above other amateur shows we have seen. The average generally proceeds along the following lines.
The orchestra arrives at 7:15 and starts timing up. By quartet to nine they are almost ready. Nine o'clock they blast forth in what resembles the alt chord.
Amateur orchestra always consist of too many violins or too many cellos, the body wants to beat the bass drum.
You can always tell the youngster who never came to rehearsal. He sits on the first row, plays the loudest and never looks at the leader.
At 7:20 the parents of the boy who will pull the curtain and sit at the low row. By eight o'clock the orchestra is packed. Which proves that some people still believe that an amateur shows start on time.
Nine o'clock the hall lights are switched out and the audience goes into loud applause, thinking the show an amours wits they finally get the footlights to work.
The curtain goes up and the young participants back stage suffer heart attack, delirium tremens and nervous prostration... So do the parents.
The acrobats come on. No show is complete without acrobats. The star performer mounts the shoulders of the others, goes to make his music, and the orchestra pit breaks the tronebone.
The ballet dancers then take the stage. Some have their eyebrows rouged and their lips on backwards. The end girl goes out of step. The girl gets out of step. They all get so far out of step that they are right again. It's every girl for herself.
The leading girl sings a verse and part of a chorus before she realizes the orchestra is playing the wrong piece. She smiles and sings the words to the selection they are going to perform, and has realized his mistake and has changed to the first score. Loud applause.
A young man does an excellent dance. He accepts an encore and falls down. In his hake he scramble off the stage he knocks off one of the wings and tears a hole in the cotton field scene.
The comedian rushes on. Comedians always rush on. He comes to the footlights and forgets what he supposed to say. The audience joins into hysterics. He is a success.
Last but not least come the aesthetic dancers. They always have aesthetic dancers in amateur shows. We have never been able to find out why.
They wear nothing but filmy gowns of cheese cloth and muslin bloomers reaching to their knees. To be careful one should leg always be longer than the other.
They trip daintly about on their toes they wear in banded in ball shoes. Something is always hanging. One by one they trip off as a safety pin pops or a garter breaks. It dwindles down to the survival of the nittest. The lady who is intact at the chose is generally given a bouquet of horseradish.
Amateur shows bring out home talent but they don't bring them out far enough for the audience to get a good alm.

The Negro has risen r along with the rest of the to believe that when social ed, his longevity will not that of other race varieties.
They Are
Passing Away
the death of Judge Robert H. Terrell, Andrew F. Hilzer and William A. Sinclair, together with the retirement of the Gwinneter who are now about at the end of the first generation of college-bred colored men. The activities and for the most part, the education men in the Howard University and the city of Washington. The earlier graduates of colleges, whether Negro or Northern, have been noted for great longevity. The university will have Harvard to will disclose living graduates of the early fifties. .... Chauney M. Depow, now ninety years of age, graduated from Yale. You can now make out, there are few if any, very few NEG college men whose diploma antedates the eligibles. Only two college alumni of Harvard University are living who received their diplomas prior to that date. The alumni list of Fisk, Atlanta and Lincoln. I feel sure, will discover equally few whose diplomas are older than 20 years of the last century.
Died At Helm
In this connection, it might be said that these men for the most part were well on in years before he college course. However, it also appears that not many have reached a very great old age. The oldest living Howard graduate, James Terrell, was 54 years, Judge Terrell died at fifty seven, Andrew F. Milner at fifty six, and William A. Sinclair at seventy-two. The Grimlies are now in their seventy and seventy fifth years respectively.
Gloomy List
The study of the alumni catalogue of the ordinary college is like reading a list of army casualties. The necrology of Negro colleges is largely huge proportion of them have been cut off in the early years of their careers. The cause of this may not be far to seek or hard to find. These men often undergo a severe hardship dergo such strenuous effort and to endure such great hardships in securing an education that their vital energies are lowered to the point of exhaustion. The story of the struggle which many of these eager young men made for a college education would be as pathetic as their untimely taking off shortly after graduation
Few Old Physicians
So far I have been speaking only of college bred men with the degree of bachelor of arts. But the same story can be told of graduates that are very old and tectable that there are very few old physicians. For the most part the earlier practitioners have fallen asleep. The same is true of the lawyers and ministers of the gospel. Every minister of the gospel is being in Baltimore in the early nineteen has passed away. There is not now practicing at the bar a single lawyer whose admission antedates the last decade of the 1980s, Lane, Cummings, Johnson and Dickerson whom I used to know as young promising attorneys in the Memorial City have all been gathered to their fathers.
Not Long Lived
Exactly the same story can be repeated in the city of Washington. Our educated class is not long-lived. I recall meeting on the streets of Washington looking phylechan. I said to him jocundly that he had better stop working so hard because the colored doctor seemed to enjoy only a small span of time, insinuating in good natured remarks. In twenty four hours he was a corpse. There is not a single old practitioner of medicine in the national capital, Francis, Shade Cook, and others. He has the power in the eighties have long since passed off the scene of action and given way for the younger generation. These men, according to the authorities, would be in the ripeness of their professional experience.
One Octogenerian
I stated at the National Medical Association at their annual meeting in Chicago last September that he was the first colored physician whom I could recall. The statement was not challenged; and he retired from the accline practice a number of years ago. The Negro educated man is something comparatively new. His experiences were new. He had to venture upon an untried field. The beginning of the road was rough. Many plains led his life in blazing the way for others to follow.
Negro Death Rate
A deeper question naturally arises here than I am disposed to discuss in the brief limits of this release. The Negro death rate is normally higher than that of the whites. How far is this observed difference due to inherent racial disposition and how far to unfavorable environment must be left to the physician and the health expert to uncover. Many insurance companies will not take Negro risks except at an increased premium. We sometimes are disposed to ascribe the discrimination to race prejudice. But companies are also dealing with actual mortuary statistics on a purely scientific basis. More Favorable
There are more parents able wholly or in good part to contribute to the education of their children. Better, sanitary regulations

relatively in the health scale
population. There is hope
conditions have been equal-
suffer by comparison with
ere provided. More stress is laid upon physical education and the training established himself after the young graduate starts upon his career is not so hard or oppressive. Many reasons to hope that the rising generation of educated Negroes will show an increasing degree of longevity. In the years to come we shall hope that Negro college and professional men may on the average live in the corresponding class of whites.
Consecrated To Truth
The men whom I mentioned at the beginning of this article, whose recent demise or retirement gave them the opportunity to embodied and expressed the spirit that was in the college world at the time when they were passing. The Grimkes are pious, devoted, concise, cause of truth, and brightness. They embodied the unselfish spirit. Their lives have been spent in serving their race. Terrell was scholarly, amiable, efficient, well tempered and intelligent. Terrell was scholar in politics. Hillyer was modest, well balanced and poised, as befits the man of culture, and single-minded for the welfare of others. Terrell was both more aggressive type. He embodied the spirit of the reconstruction regime which could in no measure tolerate any semblance of distinction or discrimination on account of color.
Rising Generation
Rising Generation
These forerunners in the field of Negro education have passed, are passing, from the field of labor to reward. The murtie is shifting to education. Will they be able and willing to wear it becoming? Does the college today mean to the young collegian what it meant to the same inspiration and the attitude toward right and date? But after all is said and done, health is the greatest value in the catalogue of human good. What health means to the whole world and lose his health? or what will a man give in exchange for his health?
Longevity Increased
Health lies at the basis of all other values and virtues. The long-borne of the never so ancient man has been the source of civilization last half century. The Negro has risen, relatively in the health scale along with the rest of the population, and has believed that when social conditions believe that he equated, his longevity will not suffer by comparison with that of other race varieties. The begin is in the schools. The college should insist on a sound body as the basis of a sound mind and of sound morals. The college should be hoped that the college men will no longer shrivel up and decay like premature ripened fruit.
New Negro
We hear much within the past few years about the new Negro. The harder to do the work and to sustain the burden that will fall upon his shoulders, he will need adequately more money to mine. Their tasks will be harder and more severe than that which their forebears sustained. They will need complex jobs. The civilization will be more complex and involved. The problem of wisely guiding their constituents not grow less but more difficult.
Racial Factors
The tangle of racial factors will in all likelihood from present inti-
llectual take us added complexity with the coming of the years. They will be less of the philanthropic spirit of the whites towards them. They have to depend mainly upon their education. Character is the one qualification that is sure to stand them in stand in all contingencies. But, however many things may be, the responsibility will still be yours. May they take up where their elders leave off and carry their work on and up. The younger generation is whispering into the ears of their forebears, "occupy till I come."

LANSEY SCORES CHELTENHAM IN "JURY" REPORT
Boys At Reform School Taught Trade They Can't
Hiring Out Of Boys Only Another Kind Of Peonage In a minority report filed with the annual report of the Grand Jury resulting from their investigations of city and state institutions, T. Wallis Lansey, manager of Druid Laundry severely scored existing conditions at the Reform School for Colored youth at Cheltenham, and offered several suggestions for the betterment of the institu-
In his report Mr. Lansey suggests the abstention of the broom factory, where a large majority of the boys, who are married to few boys, being dismissed from the institution are able to make a living at this trade, he points out. He expended $100,000 on clothing should be improved the shoe make and tailoring shops with competent instructors. If these trades are properly taught to it, they can make their own clothes and shoes, thus reducing the expense to the state, but would prepare them to be a citizen, become a citizen after their脱落, he declares.
Broom Factory Firetrap
The broom factory is a veritable firetrap, according to Mr. Lansey. There is but one exit which is very smelly. The other, made of material materials used in the making of brooms, would result in many deaths before the score on a mop is high. The mop would make their use. As long as the broom factory remains, he suggests the building of another stairway lead-up to the factory is located.
Bread Soggy
While the bakery was clean and sanitary, the bread made there was neither wholesome or digestible, he states. The bread was through heavy and soggy. The buildings were well kept. Of the 255 boys only six were employed in the shoe shop at the time of the war, that the trade was being taught. The equipment was old, scant, and antiquated. Neither were there any signs of instruction in the machines, that the sewing machines were six old sewing machines that revealed little evidence of being used.
Calls Farm System Poonage
The system of hiring out the boys to neighboring farmers as used in the war was one step from slavery. The boys get from $25 to $40 a year for their services it is said. This is collected by the institution and the area of 21.
The management complained of the lack of funds to put the institution on a higher plane, Mr. Lancey states, if the boys now hire teachers, they would not be employed by the institution, to farm the 754 acres on which it is situated between class hours, they would not only be able to defray a large amount of their own expense but would also be able to hire teachers in an assistant, who is a specialist in institutional work should be employed who by scientific methods of farming could obtain the desired result.
Abolish the Aze Limit
The present practice of committing a boy to the institution until he is 21 years of age should be abolished, Mr. Lancey declares, and the boys's stay in accordance with the misdemeanor committed. Many boys after a year in the reform school realize their error and would mit a boy of 12 who has made a mistake to such an institution, which does not better his condition, rather reason it is the highest form of injustice. Under present conditions if a boy makes the ten grades through good behavior he is subject to parole, jails, and other penalties, however, and results in very few boys being freed. This power should be taken out of the hands of the management and embodied in the laws imposing the sentence, he adds.

Says Wife Lied
"In regards to the story appearing in last week's issue of the AFRON, I wrote to the AFRON that Irene Jackson was granted an absolute divorce. I wish to state that she only received a partial divorce. After three years she can, however, be married. Irene Jackson was not of desertion, but not on the lies and scandal which she told at the trial. Did Not Love Her
"Irene Jackson is only only for the support of her four children, which is $12 a week. Yes, we were married in December, 1917. I did not marry her, but married her to protect her name.
"I always went on trips before I met Irene Jackson. As to the question of belong to any other woman.
Sister Interfered
"It was not Miss Dora Wilson, 'Dottie,' as she calls her, who caused the separation. it was her love letters she feared for, and she feared for our family affairs. Instead of Frank Jackson being minus a wife, as stated in the AFRO, she is minus a husband. She is signed FRANK H. JACKSON. The divorce in question, was obtained by Attorney Roy S. Bond in question concerning the husband's denials appearing above on behalf of his client, he stated that the divorce was obtained on the facts抄ing in the AFRO at the first printing.

SIX ELECTED TO NEW URBAN LEAGUE BOARD
Plans For Year's Work Outlined At Annual Meeting Of Body
LEAGUE MEMBER OF COMMUNITY FUND
Change Constitution To Conform To New Status As City Agency
A change in the constitution whereby any one who designates an tenant a dollar of money to contribute to the Urban League will be considered a member of the League was the feature of the annual meeting held on last Friday evening at the Sharp street building.
Membership in the League has formerly been of three kinds, annual, contributing, and sustaining, the amount of annual dues plus the amount of factorial factor, the class of membership obtained. The Urban League is now a member of the Community Fund. Membership dues, as a means of support, are not collected by the individual members of the Community Fund, but a vote in the affairs of the league now have two alternatives: they may pay a dollar directly to the League or may designate at least one dollar of the Community Fund. Another change in the constitution calls for the election of members to the executive board to be held in January of each year to coincide with the beginning of the fiscal year. The election on last Friday saw twenty-four named to the executive board, which in turn will elect the officers at a meeting to be held on Tuesday, May 18. William N. Jones was chairman of the executive board, who was unanimously received.
Other items of business included the report of the president, Dr. Brondus Mackey; the treasurer, Dr. Mary Cary; the secretary, Dr. R Maurice Moss. The executive committee was ordered to look into ways and means of publishing the latest study of the Lestat Negro Death Rate in Baltimore.
The personnel of the executive committee as named Friday is William Hardie, Richard J. Beale, Beile Kahn, Howard C. Hill, Miss Dorothy Kahn, Mrs. Sara B. Rasson, Emory H. Kearns, Dr. Mollie Carroll, Mrs. Mason Hawkins, Sidney Hollander, J. Edward Lansey, Mrs. Anna, Micheen Schafer, Ms. Doe Schafer, John R. Cary, Thomas W. Y. Clark, John W. Haywood, William N.

ATE TOO FAST
South Carolinian Took Black-Draught For Indigestion, and Says He Could Soon Eat
Anything.
Ballentine, S. C.-Mr. W. B. Boukunr, of this place, gave the following account of his use of Theford's Black-Draught. He said he had indigestion. Working out, I got in the habit of eating fast, for which I soon paid by having a tight, bloated feeling after meals. This made me very uncomfortable. I would feel stupid and drowsy, didn't feel like eating. I had a quicker digestion. Some one recommended Black-Draught and I took it after meals. I soon could eat anything any time.
"I use it for colds and biliousness and it will knock out a cold and carry away the blue better and quicker than any liver medicine I have ever found."
Eating too fast, too much, or faulty chewing of your food, often causes discomfort after meals. A pinch of Black-Draught, washed in a swallow of water, will help to bring about relief. Bites of sensations, eructations, a baird breath and other common symptoms of indigestion have disappeared after Black-Draught has been taken for several days. NG-164

A DOUBLE BARRELLED LOVE STORY
Such was the gay state of their affairs that when the football scarcity plunged upon them it was planned that Joe and Mirabelle and Clarice and Lew would motor to Philadelphia to cheer for Lincoln Low's alma mater at the great classic.
The night before, however, Joe home and announced flatly, "Hung dog dog" he over wrote "Write up the Homewood game." He didn't exclaimed the horrified Mirabelle, "Well, if you carpoil, you won't either, and that's kind of the frock of the one with gold base panels which she had fashioned at night and of the chic blue and gold urban and scarf to match.
Joe settled the matter by saying, "What's the need of you staying home when I'll be out anyway?"
Yet once again did the little gadget of mischief poise an inquisitive finger in the machinery and halt the woods. For at six on Thanksgiving frosty morning, when when when and already signalled once an abrupt peep-peep horn and Mirabelle gave one last touch of rouge to an already vivid check one last touch of scent to check brown hair, and once last backward glance in the arms of the rose-dawn chiffon stockings were straight, there came an apologetic rap on her bed room door. To her welcoming, "Cousin Clarice," the door opened and there stood Clarice's mother, a soft grey drape of squirrel fur on her arm. "Mirabelle, Clarice is sharp, too sick to go to Philadelphia skirt as it is today," she begin. Mirabelle collapsed the Foot of her bed. Ma
"Nothing to worry about, dear. Only a-aer-a cold coming on. But I won't let her go—so much flu go around now. Clarice says please wear this coat, now, Mirabelle, noth-ing to worry about. You just go ahead with Mr. Hawkins, and I'll do the rest. "Don't let him go up there by himself with no lady friend at all. There he is honking
again. And all the time she was pushing the crushed Mirabell into the dusky folds of the squirrel coat in spite of all her protestations.
"O, yes. Clarice says you got to wear this coat because if she got going to the game she wouldn't have bought it until after the holiday discounts. Make her feel like she hasn't lost so much money. Get along with you now! Lawns! here's an upounding on the door. Got everything? My! don't you look like a picture in a fashion book?"
Ambling and mumbling in this wise, Pum put a firm arm about Mirabell's waist and marched her steadily to the door where the lewn Law was burgling lustily and shouting.
"Come on, let's go." Cut out the dolling up.
His voice soon dropped to a more respectful pitch when he beheld Mirabell in all her glory, in fact it was all he could do to mutter in a hushed tone.
"Glorious girl! Aren't you the snake's garters?"
And Mirabell was just as bedazed for Lewn as swarthy encumcumbed by collegiate raccoon coat. She couldn't protest against the squirrel wrap now!
In the moment of surprise, Joe and Clarice's troubles were forgotten and she dashed off with Lew and never gave them another thought the livelong day.
But if you had seen the Thanksgiving dinner Ma cooked and Clarice served to Joe and the laughing faces thought them subjects for worry.
Steadily Mirabelle and Lew, with their faces to the clear stinging winds of the morning, sped over smooth highways, past the sheltered beauty of Swartmore—on to the big game in American Park. Park is the school's his son's school, especially Lail, Lincoln, Hail!" and yells and their fresh strong voices made many a passing motorist smile. Philadelphia by half hour past noon! Renewed acquaintances in the fırst house, introductions to Mirabelle, excitement all around her until she was in a glare. The teacher then bedept benches on the field and Lew's colors in her coat. Then this. A tense pall settled over their stand as a lone player stood silhouetted against a bleak sky, poised to kick goal. Mirabelle whispered in a shaky voice. He can't make it. Wind's too high.

After this, then, was the tea inn, bites of food between dances, gulps of water, gathering dusk the trip homeward.
It was when the sturdy little roadster had brought them as far as the Loch Raven bridge and was halted in line at the toll gate that Lew reminded me of the best he ever played, what it
"But you never named what it was to be," Mirabelle laughed.
"It was this," whispered Lew and Smitheira in his arms and kissed her cold mouth until it burned. It required vigorous and prolonged hongking on the part of the driver who could start them on their journey again.
Silence reigned through Havre de Grace until well outside the town's lights Lew brought the car to a stop and said quite simply.
"Marry me Mirabelle, for I love you," the sad little shake of her head worried him not at all for he laughed.
"I'll stop when you say 'yes.' Then he smothered her once more in his arms and his eager lips found hers. And because the greatest cestasy soon approaches palm, Mirabelle gave a weak assent. followed by a strong caution to keep it a secret.
When a miraculously revived Clarice greeted her midnight return and exhorted her pointedly to "tell everything Mirabelle told me everything happened between Loch Raven and Overlaan.
Troubled days followed for Mirabelle, days where the bright prospects of a future as Lewis wife were immediately darkened by thoughts of Joe alone or Joe in the distasteful role as inhabitant of Lewis's spare room.
As her burdens increased, so did Clarice's inquisitiveness, for that energetic one sensed that something had happened on the Philadelphia trip, and she never ceased to delicately pry Mirabelle until that overtact but one became grochy and refused to divulge one shred of confidence.
But Charice was wise with the wisdom of Cleopatra of the centuries. So she struck in this direction: "Mirabelle, swap out of this trance. Suppose Lew has chucked you. There's many other man in the wings."
"Chucked me?" gasped the scarlet Mirabelle, "but he wants to murry me Christmas, but and then the tale was in poured out at its conclusion, gave an unseemly whoop of joy and went ruding out into the kitchen.
She and Joe, arms about each other, soon came back to Mirabelle
The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly
With Marked Quotations
Many of us look with despair at the supposedly economical meals in the magazine to which we subscribe. Their simple meals are far too elaborate and costly, and peruses, and purses, which are usually limited.
This series of menus presents the simple foods which even folk who do not eat well purchase, all the food values in a balanced meal. The market list appended shows the total cost of the week. The price represents self-purchased things at Bailiff's stores, and more rates. The housewife cannot expect to telephone her wants and get bottom prices. The meal prices law that allows elaboration, for I realize that most colored people spend more than this for food. I made lunches light but hearty, and one mother home at lunch time. Small children will have to have milk.
These meals will not cost nearly as much as the meat, bread and tome meals and will give proper nourishment.

And Clarice wiped all bewilderment from Mirrabella's face and pain from her heart with this announcement:
"You prize little dummy! Why have I worked over you like an archer and musterer? Why have I jazed you full of peep, served you my Johns on a silver platter? Why did I give you a big chance with Lew? Why? because Joe said he couldn't marry me until after you were married!"

GREETINGS This column makes it initial bow this week to the many readers of the "Afro-American." It is to be hoped that the weekly discussions of the various interesting questions and perplexing problems which enter into the warm and wool of life may prove both profitable and enjoyable to all concerned.
It is the intention of the writer to make a sincere attempt to face fairly and squarely all facts on both sides of all subjects discussed. In no other way can worthwhile and helpful conclusions be reached; in no other way can there be any definite approach to real truth.
"You and I, child" a striking character in a recent book to his daughter, are seekers after truth; and us far as in us les we'll glothese him, and then to naked facts and look everything in the face, fairly and squarely.
Only such an attitude toward life and life's problems wins for us true progress and development. It isn't a question of what one thinks or would like to think—real living consists in putting one's self more, and more in alignment with the indisputable facts of life as we discover them.
Most folk spend their time trudging stolldy up the blind alley of their home, and their confusion is overcome when they have eyes but they see not, and of a consequence they remain "babes" in wisdom and clogs in the wheels of progress.
This state of affairs is rather lamentable. At the best our gain in knowledge during a short life-time is but partial and limited, and it does seem a shame to waste any precious hours in wilful blindness and self-deception.
Our earnest desire, dear readers, to do our best best to live fully, deeply, richly, and in accordance with the Creator's wonderful purpose for mankind.

"Boys," said Mr. Moore. "there is a plan you may like to follow. Let James be the first captain because this birthday is Lily. Let James be the first captain until the boy on the team has a birthday, and so on through the team, Fortunately, your birthdays all come in moderate weather, I have learned, and a few weeks apart. Each captain should name his 'officers' and the boys the new birthday comes and so on, in order that all may have a chance to help make the team a success."
Just then Mahon and his team came to play, too? said Mahon to his father.
"No, Mahon, you are all too big," answered Mr. Moore. The brothers exchanged glances, and Mahon remembered his "Aw, you're too little." Something to be handled as to be "too little" was the lesson Mahon learned from that answer.
That night Mrs. Moore deliberately listened outside her small son's door. "Door, door, door," he mined about helping me grow fast. I have a baseball team of my own. Amen."
Do You Know?
1. That fish take naps? They actually sleep, though not as soundly as human beings. Only part of their faculties are at rest, and they do not close their liddess eyes. Any sudden action of the water, or even striking against the bank of a stream can jar them into instant action.
2. That a cup of strong tea will remove practically all odor of onion on one's breath? This should be especially appreciated at this season of the year when spring onions are very tempting.
3. That eggs deteriorate more rapidly if they are washed? Nature gives the shells a mucilaginous coating which delays the en-

"Beauty," next to "Love" in importance, and one of the most wonderful words in any language—from the savage to the savant, we all wonderously influenced by true beauty in any form, and we may all possess it too.
Possibly not to every one is given beauty of face or form; but beauty of soul, and spirit is for every one who will strive sufficiently for its attainment. Any nature gift may be cherished and cultivated, into greater perfection.
"Beauty of Soul" is not all together inherent, but it is a gradual growth, wherein selflessness, empathy, and kindness of evil passions are overcome by prayer, and the exercise of strong, clear will power; the will develops only by and strengthens thus constant use.
"Beauty of Mind," does not necessarily consist in having attained a number of diplomas or college degrees, but in a daily and hourly achievement.
None of us fully realize the influence we wield either for good or evil, and many of us who possess real beauty of feature, or form, are much too prone to minimize the last beauty of soul and mind.
I am convinced, however limited the time or means, with a little care, every single day, any girl or woman can soon work with women with her personal appearance.
Keep your hair alive, and no matter what the color, it will be beautiful if healthy brush it nightly, massage it once in a while, should it appear lifeless, massage more frequently, until that is given hot oil treatments.

4. My answer to question 2 is applicable to question 4. The problem is not primarily a national one and must be solved with reference to local conditions. In the public school attended by my grandchildren there is no race segregation.
5.—In my opinion, a man's color ought not to count against him when selections are being made for a school board. As a general proposition, I regard race representations as inconsistent with the theory that people of color are distinguishable in the eyes of law. I want to imagine circumstances, however, where a presentation is necessary to secure fair treatment. Under such circumstances I should favor it. I express no opinion about any particular board of education because this does not come with in the sphere of my official responsibility.
6.—I am constantly urging the recognition of qualified for Federal appointments of various grades. I fought for the confirmation of Walter Cohen, as Collector of the Port of New Orleans.

"WILL NOT BE MISLED" SAY CLERGY
Ecclesiastical Group Impressed With William Vare's Record-Tired of Indifference of Mellon-Leslie Faction PHILADELPHIA, PA. (Special to Afro-American) Following the endorsement of the State Organization, which held its meeting in Philadelphia on Tuesday, April 27th, and in keeping with the steadily increasing public sentiment manifesting itself in every county in the State where the colored population is in evidence, the Baptist Ministers' Union of Pittsburgh and vicinity, in regular session on Monday, May 3rd, 1926, by resolution endorsed the Honorable William S. Vare for United States Senator and the Honorable Edward S. Beidleman for Governor of Pennsylvania.
The resolution was offered by Rev. C. E. Asker, D. D., and was approved by the business committee, which offered it to the floor of the Ministers' Union, where the resolution received unanimous approval. The resolution follows:
Whereas, the Honorable William S. Vare, of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, has, all through his public career, stood for square dealing on any and every issue affecting all races; and
Whereas, in the State of Pennsylvania, and especially in the City of Philadelphia, he has been directly responsible for most of the political patronage now enjoyed in Philadelphia County by members of our group; and
Whereas, he stood with us in our recent fight for a Bill of Civil Rights in Pennsylvania; and
Whereas, we believe that the liquor question now being discussed in the present campaign is nothing but a bait for votes and has no reflection on Mr. Vare, and is intended simply to drive us from questions of immortal concern to our people;
Whereas it becomes us as leaders to endorse and support men who have proven themselves interested in all races and in all groups where the larger questions are involved; therefore, be it
Resolved, that we, the ministers of the Baptist Ministers' Conference of Western Pennsylvania, comprising a membership of 100 ministers, go down on record as endorsing and supporting, and we do hereby endorse and pledge to support the Honorable William S. Vare, of Philadelphia County as candidate for United States Senator and Honorable Edward E. Beidleman for Governor of the State of Pennsylvania.
Carried by vote of the Baptist Ministers' Union of Pittsburgh and vicinity this third day of May, 1926, done by order of the Convention.

CLARKSBURG, W. VA. — Are prisoners well fed at the county jail?
Here is the proof.
When Mrs. Edith Blue, of Star City, near Morgantown, came to the county jail last year, sentenced there by Judge William E. Baker, federal judge of the district, for violating the narcotic act, she weighed 246 pounds according to the Davis office of Sheriff Issaune J. Davis.

SEARCH PASTORS IN BIRMINGHAM
BIRMINGHAM, ALA—Lending Negroes are cruelly manhandled by officers of the law as a pastime, says the "Young Allenite." Rev. Walls was recently "held up" and searched for whiskey, and when protesting, was ordered to "shut up" under threat of being "carried down." Several of his officers while "sitting up" with the remains of a dead member, were ordered to "dry up," and for insisting upon explaining the cause of their presence, were severely beaten. Rev. Mallard has been held up and searched. Dr. Newswome has been forced to stand by while south and cursing officers ransacked the arsonage St. John Church of Ellicott.
Rev. J. B. Carter's own wife was recently ordered to stop and submit to the searching of her market basket for whiskey. Rev. J. B. Foxall of Tennessee, stopped over for a night in Birmingham, and early the next morning while on his way to the train, was ordered to stop and subm't to being searched for whiskey. When he informed the officers that he was a minister of the gospel he was sent back. He left and is them too, parson." The writer, Ira T. Bryant, and Rev. A. R. Fox were standing in front of the fraternal Hotel in company with the proprietor, when two burly policemen rode up and in a most uncouth manner ordered us to get off the streets. Hundreds of other similar cases might be cited

PHILADELPHIA, (By Henry F. Arnold)—Congressman William F. Vare will be the next United States Senator from Pennsylvania. The primaries will be held Tuesday.
The fact that Governor Pinchot also a candidate for the Republican nomination for Senate has been endorsed by the Ku Klux Klan practically eliminates him from the race. Klan plans are to elect Pinchot and in the wet Republics in Pennsylvania and then to proceed to New York and oust the Catholics from the city government.
Senator Pepper
Senator Pepper who is also a candidate to succeed himself, made a try for the colored vote last week through the appointment of E. Washington Rhodes as assistant U. S. District attorney. This ninth hour appointment, it is said, will not deflect votes from Vare, who is appointed congressman Vare, as a Republican leader, is credited with having defeated the bill to make Cheyney Institute a State Normal school. Such a measure would have caused white normal schools in the state to refer their colored students to Cheyney. Congressman Vare came to Harrisburg from Washington and blocked the measure. Vare is also credited with the appointment of the late Judge Amos Scott. Vare worked in the State Senate on the passing of the Asbury Equal Rights Act. Philadelphia, Erie, Harrisburg, Pittsburgh, the big cities of the state, are all excitement.
In Philadelphia I found parades day and night for one or the other candidates. Broad street, Philadelphia, is decorated as if it were the fourth of July.
The three senator candidates in the race with extra coaches for newspaper men and photographers, are constantly moving from one city to another.
Leading colored men who are workers for the various candidates are: for Vare, J. C. Asbury and Ernest Wright: for Pepper, E. Washington Rhodes and Edgar Brown: for Pinchot, Charles Fred White and Judge Edward Henry, Dr. Harry S. Crampton and Morris Cowan, both of Harrisburg, are directing the parade for Glenn and Fisher, the other candidate for governor, is being ardently supported by Thomas Swann and C. V. Brown.

U.S. DOLLARS MEET WHISKEY IN TIA JUANA
LOS ANGELES, CAL.—I made another excursion into Old Mexico. There is Tia Juana. It is still there, and it is the veritable Gate of Hell leading right out of this Paradise of Southern California. And the hell is created by American money.
A sane person fails to find any excuse for the existence of Tia Juana on earth, races and whiskey—mostly whiskey. It is one big saloon and a jail.—whiskey of doubtful origin and lying labels, on almost every corner, in every block. There is one saloon whose bar extends the whole block, and literally jammed with American women and their mate drinking the milk and hard liquors.
They start early Sunday mornings: a stream of tourists and their cars leave Southern California for this seething place. If you are there by 10 a. m., you will hear little shrieks from the drinking American women, indicating that they are beginning to get appalled. And by night the place is one combination of both Sodom and Gomorrah. Is this another product of prohibition?
There are about 1800 colored people in San Diego. In one meeting I saw about 200 of them, — and in another meeting about 1,000 of their white fellow townsmen.
The Gang
And I saw "The Gang", the former pals of Sunshine Sammy, Hal Roach's kids. They had driven down to San Diego on the same day when they met them. They beat big specially built bus, with loud banners hung on it, proclaiming "The Gang."
The little fat white one seems to have a car of his own, and Farina seems to have his own car. Like all normal kids they were taking a great interest in the zoo in Bailon Park. — but to me they themselves were so housed times more inter- tween than any of the inhabitants of the zoo.
Ranch
Every estate is a "ranch" in Southern California. If a fellow has a quarter acre plot on which to raise chickens, it is labeled "Chicken Ranch." There are similar "hog ranches," "pigeon ranches," "rabbit ranches," etc., etc. The easterner thinks that a ranch must be a vast territory, because he is thinking of the cattle ranches, as told of in stride and in written form. But the word has no reference to the size of the territory: it is used much as "farm" is used in the east: "chicken farm", etc.
Gutallpa Island
If I find time, I may say a later word about Catalina, Island, the great show island, which lies about two and a half hours' sail offshore from Catalina. The island is owned and controlled by the great chewing gum magnate, Wrigley. Its submarine gardens as seen thru the glass-bottom boats, are among the wonders of the world. And its garden are hardly less wonderful!
Orange Groces
Yesterday I motorized for one hundred and thirty-old miles thru orange groves. Some of the trees have ripe fruit and blossoms on them at the same time.
Burbank Burbank is so developed the orange tree that it grows a veritable load of fruit. The tempon trees are also heavily laden. In among these orange plantations are also great acres of olive groves and English walnuts.
The Japanese are the best gardeners; the apple will all they are to be admired for their pluck and hustle; excluded from citizenship because they did not happen to be born in some place like blessed Mississippi, and not allowed to pay land, they HAVE DENIED to be named the name of the child, who is an American citizen by virtue of the Civil War amendments, which declare all persons born in the United States to be citizens. These war amendments brought about by the fighting Negroes of the day of Frederick Douglass, now help out Japanese immigrants, right for yourself without directly or indirectly helping others.
Speaks 18 Times
I had a terrible week in Los Angeles, and with the "Lost Angels", I might say. They seemed to think that I was a machine and filled with perpetual motion. After ruthlessly turning down many of the engagements which they had made for me, I still had to speak 18 times in one week, — to keep, from appearing too tue and too unobliging! Seven of these engagements were in the colleges and the University College, the University College, the University of California, Pomona College, one of the most beautiful spots in the universe, about 40 miles out of Los Angeles.
Miss Derricotte
At the University of California I got a new and gratifying impression of the usefulness of a young colored woman like Juliette Derrickte, of the Y. W. C. A. She made a wholesome impression on the girls there, in her visit of last summer, for her first visit. "Do you know Miss Derrickte?" was how they greeted me when they came forward to shake hands. The girl who introduced me to the audience is a southerner, — and I will not call her name, for some of the other girls told me that this girls' southern mother was a girl. "Did this girl? Did you know Miss Derrickte? Can't you get her to come back here soon?"

(By Cleveland G. Allen)
NEW YORK, N. Y.-Nathaniel Dett, head of the music department of Hampstead musicians and composers of the race, will be honored by his alma mater, Oberlin College, at the commencement of Doctor of Music.
This degree is being given to Dr. Nathaniel Dett as a recognition of his work in the field of music, since graduating from Oberlin. He received the honorary doctor's degree from Oberlin in 1991 for his attribution as a musician and composer, and the further honors that he will receive from Oberlin shows the distinction that has come to him in his chosen profession.
Dr. Dett is held in the highest esteem by the faculty of Oberlin College, and has played the students and faculty of Oberlin seven seasons. His arrangements of many of the Negro spirituals have made him widely known. He will soon have the press of the Negro as Sung at Hampton "The book will contain 250 pages, and the preface will be divided into eight sections, and in many ways a side of the songs and their influence on the music of the future. He has made the department of music at country, and in many ways the department of music at Hampton are among the brilliant features of the cultural life of the school. During his sabbatical year at Harvard, he wrote the Literary prize for his essay on "The Emancipation of Negro Music," and also the Francis Boot Music prize, for his six-part Motet, "Don't Be Weary, Travel-
Among the outstanding features of the Hampton Anniversary the spring was the concert by the Dett's entitled "Gently Lord, Oh Gentle Lead Ns," by a chorus of six hundred, and the background. Few American composers have received higher recognition than he. His compositions are free from churches of American and his works played by some of the most noted orchestras universally acclaimed as one of the greatest of the American composers, who has been foremost in the progression of American music. Last year he resigned to accept directorship of music in D. C. public schools. He also has a standing offer to go to Tuskegee as head of music there.
For the expression of the dramatic ability and talent of the Negro, as well as to provide a place where Negro actress pretend Negro life and social customs, a little Negro Theatre has opened in the basement of the museum, where many memorable marks a new epoch in the cultural and artistic development of the Negro, and will be a center where many memorable looking towards the larger openings of Negroes in the dramatic field. The opening of the historic theater will provide an outlet for the historic gifts of the young men and women of the race, and for the present Negro in a new age. The project is to be a community enterprise, and a center for the Krikwan Players, of which Dr. W. E. B. Dubols is chairman, gave the first of the young before a large audience. The name of the plays were "Compromise," "The Church Fight," "The Young Before a Large Audience." The name of the plays were "Compromise," "The Church Fight," "The Young Before a Large Audience," and "The Broken Barjo" were written by Willis Richardson, and "The Church Fight" by Mrs. Kuth Agana-Shel Fight.
All of the players are amateurs and are being directed by Charles Burroughs, the country foremost for the theatre. The plays revealed the rich gifts of the Negro for dramatic expression and called attention to a yet powerful theme. The Negro Theatre will help to develop. The opening of such a playhouse in Harlem, the center of the Negro New York has been the desire of Dr. Dubols. He believes that it will be only through such means will the Negro New York become his favorite before the world. The theatre presents an interesting atmosphere, and we will see an exotic, colorful, and vibrant performance, as well as give opportunity to the more gifted actors of the race. The playhouse is another step in the development of the most interesting centers for Negro culture in Harlem. The members of the Krigwa Cabinet theatre, Zora Neale Hurston, Frank L. Horne, and Louise Lauten. Prominent men and women interested in such a project are members of the Krigwa players.

For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3: 16.
This is the favorite Bible verse of Miss Elizabeth Thomas, a member of Trinity A, M. E. Church.
GOD'S MESSENGER
Jesus answering said: "Go your way, things you have seen and heard: the lame walk, the lepers are clean, and are raised, to the poor the gospel is he who is not offended in me.
A baptist though a cousin of Jesus Christ, had a full Christ appeared and besought him to be a memorable day he was baptizing at Bethlehem, sure that John saw very much of him. The country slave and very naturally all sorts of opium he had. Many thought he must be some of the from the dead; many thought he might spoken of the prophets. In fact there is his identity. In their endeavor to answer question him. Are you Moses? No. Are you Jesus? No. Who are you? Your name your name your simple name? by John. And we are told you don't eat and when I am hungry, I eat locusts, when I am no one you? I am the voice of one crying in way of the Lord, make his paths straight he was of the opinion that Jesus should be Herod openly confessed that he belonged from God. John up hearing this per word into action. John was bold enough that if he believed him to be a messenger Jesus Christ, stop living in adultery. Hero out in prison, and finally he was put to death to the poor. When the Master performs to be followers of Christ in words also by our deeds. Our prosecutions cannot be the world an idea of Hi lions and lice. Christianity alone, embodied indeed, or the work of redemption by Christ, or the world. And blessed is he, saith Christ, indeed.

Then Jesus answering said: "Go your way and tell John what things you have seen and heard; and how the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached. And blessaed he, who is not offended in me. Luke 7: 22-23.
John the Baptist though a cousin of Jesus Christ, had in all probability never seen Him till Christ appeared and besought him to baptize Him in the Jordan, that memorable day he was baptizing at Bethabara. And indeed we are not very sure that John saw very much of him thereafter.
The whole country side had been stirred by John's preaching and his call to repentance and very naturally all sorts of opinion Moses had of whom he might be. Many might right him, many thought he might be the Messiah, who had been spoken of by the prophets. In fact there was a diversion of opinions as to his identity. In their endeavor to satisfy their curiosity, they began to question him. Are you Moses? No. Are you Elijah? No. Are you the Messiah? No. Who are you? Your name is different from other men and your rament is a simple camel's hide, with a leather strap around the waist. And we are old you don't see of that also other men. When am he prayy, I eat poultry when I am thirsty, I drink honey. Well who are you? I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness. Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his path straight. It is no wonder that the people had become all satir at this man's preaching.
Even King Herod had openly confessed that he believed John was a messenger sent from God. John up hearing this personally besigning Herod to put his words into action. John was bold enough to touch Herod's life and tell him that if he believed him to be a messenger of God and a forerunner of Jesus Christ, stop living in adultery. Herod became angry and had John put in prison, and finally he was put to death. After John was put in prison, he was of the opinion that Jesus should come to him, in as much as he was there for His sake.
John dispatched two of his disciples to Jesus and asked. Art thou the Christ or should we look for another.
He did not reply to the messengers at once, but he began to perform miracles. Then He turned to the disciples and told them to go back to John and tell him what things you have seen and heard. He concluded with these two all important utterances. The poor have the gospel preached to them and blessed is he who is not offended in me.
This was indeed the beginning of a new era. Never before was the gospel preached to the poor. When the Master performed miracles it meant that we cannot be followers of Christ in words alone; but we must prove our words by our deeds. Our prosecutions cannot do justice to His word world an idea of Hilibors and sacrifices and wonders of mercy. Christianity alone, embodied indeed of mercy can adequately illustrate the work of redemption by Christ, or meet the inquiries and wants of the world. And blessed is he, salth Christ, who on hearing this, is not offended.

MAYOR NAMES COMMISSION IN HOSPITAL MOVE
First Practical Step In Effort
To Secure $1,000,000 Is
SYDENHAM HOSPITAL IS PROPOSED SITE
Considered
The commission was authorized by the City Council recently when that body voted to recommend a municipal loan at the coming session of the State Legislature. Those appointed by the Mayor are: Albert G. Towers, representing the Board of Supervisors of City Charities. Dr. William Wright, physician. Frank A. Furst, representing the Board of State Aid and Charities. The Rev. Joseph Green. Attorneys J. Stewart Davis and Josiah Henry.
William H. Rawles, representing the School Board.
Dr. Stanton McCard, physician. Judge Joseph N. Ulman, representing the Supreme Bench of Baltimore.
Carl Murphy, Editor the AFRO- AMERICAN.
Dr. C. Hampson Jones, Commissioner of Health. The Rev. Ernest Lyon. John H. Larson, Elmore B. Jeffery, and A. Milton Alftek.
To Cooperate
Friends of the new movement say there is an excellent chance of carrying the matter through to a successful conclusion. For some time it has been known that Dr. C. Hampson Jones of the Health Department has favored a movement for wider hospitalization and has proposed taking over Sydenham as such an institution. As a welfare movement of obvious value, it though, that there will no longer be opposition at Annapolis, especially as the project will have the united support of the local legislative delegation and the leaders of Baltimore.
$1,000,000 Loan
The proposal is to ask the legislature permission to vote a million dollar loan for the purpose and make the institution municipal and municipal supported plant. Some time ago Mayor Jackson expressed his approval of the proposition, and local physicians here feel that it will be only through some such movement that a real incident hospital will be established.

Allen Causes Big Boom In Home Buying
By his determined efforts in advertising Willard Allen, prominent local real estate dealer, has caused one of the biggest booms in home buying ever known in Baltimore. More houses are being sold this year than ever before in the history of this city, due to the terrific drive being put over by this well known head of the Masons.
Mr. Allen has been in the real estate business for a number of years and has made himself an enviable record among the people of Baltimore for fair and square dealing and for placing people of moderate means in their own homes. Many who never before realized the wonderful benefits to be obtained by the home owner are coming to Mr. Allen in an effort to have themselves placed in a home of their own before cold weather sets in again.
Due to the fact that this demand is increasing every day, it will behoove those who desire select homes to get in touch with Mr. Allen at once as the choicest homes are going fast and unless there is a great increase in the homes made vacant by the exodus of the white people to the suburbs it is doubtful if there will be sufficient homes of the better kind to meet the big demand.

Baltimore Known As the City of Home Owners
There are possibly few in Baltimore who do not know that our city is known the country over as a City of Homes. A city where nearly 75 per cent of the population is housed in individual homes and nearly 60 per cent of this proportion are living in homes of their own.
It is also known that in such a community the people are found to be on the average a great deal thriftier than those in communities where such conditions do not exist. Those largely responsible for this condition are the realtors who have been daily preaching the gospel of home-ownership to the public and have succeeded in educating them up to the point where it is the general feeling among all classes that rent payers are the loosers in the end and that landlords are virtual slave owners, raising their rents at will and dispossessing the tenants upon the slightest provocation.
Deep thinking people are given much study to this condition and are daily taking advantage of the wonderful opportunities offered by such real estate men as Mr. Willard W. Allen and are consulting them in effort to better their conditions and make a permanent home for their posterity.

With Miller Brothers' 101 Ranch Wild West and Great Far East Show that comes to Baltimore two days, Wednesday, May 28 and 27, at Edmondson avenue and Bentalou street, will be "Bill" Pickett, greatest colored plainman ever known. Pickett's speciality, throwing steers with his teeth, is unmatchable and the marvel of the West.
Last year in Albany, during the street parade, the driver of a tableau wagon-lost control of his horses and the five run away, drawing the heavy wagon down an incline. Pickett, who was mounted on a horse, did some spectacular riding, grasped the bit of the leader and saved the life of five spectators. The hero suffered a knee and arm and rib and was incapacitated for months. His injury was healed and he is now a star of the stars of this season's production. There is a colored band that is also a feature of the stuntedous show.
One thousand four hundred persons are required to present the mammoth spectacle, cowboys and cowgirls: 600 elephants, camels and buffalo, (from ranch herds). Every famous Indian chief and warrior in warfare is among the most famous people engaging the retrenchment policy of the circuses, they bring to town the largest and most picturesque street parade ever seen in the land.

D. C. RELATIVE SAW LAD IN FREEDMANS
Alonzo Jackson Found To Be Critical After Serious Operation For Appendicitis
More of the deplorable conditions existing at the boys reform school at Cheltenham were revealed by Mrs. Hattie Stewart, 1510 Riggs Avenue.
She told an APRO reporter that her son, Alonzo Jackson, age 14, had been confined in the Freedman's Hospital, Washington, with appendicitis for more than a week before she was notified of his condition.
She was only informed that her son was confined in the hospital when a relative in Washington happened to visit the institution and discovered the boy. Mrs. Stewart declares that she went to Washington immediately upon being informed and found that her son had been there some time before and undergone an operation. His condition was described to be serious at the time, later information from the authorities declare the boy to be improving however. The boy was committed to the reform school last January she stated.
