Swimming Pool Explosions Follow Protest Of Whites Against Opening Colored Resort SALEM, VA.—Two mysterious explosions late Tuesday night wrecked the dam of Kessler's mill near Salem, recently converted by a new owner into a bathing pool for colored persons. Considerable objection against such use of the dam had repeatedly been expressed by white farmers of the community and owners of a nearby pleasure resort, whose pool is fed by water coming over the dam. About a month ago the county supervisors also protested against the scheme. Arrangements for the resort continued, however, in face of the opposition and it was reported that next Saturday would have been opening day. About 10:30 last night an explosion awoke the neighborhood. At midnight another and greater explosion occurred. Morning revealed one end of the dam blown out, the engine demolished and the line of both rooms, erected within the mill destroyed. The sheriff's investigation thus far has failed to reveal the identity of the perpetrators. N. A. A.

Baltimore Attorneys Comment On Supreme Court Decision Miss Gertrude I. Wilson, valedictorian Morgan College. Miss Wilson also is the Gamma Chapter of Dena Sigma Theta Sorority. WARNER T. McGULINN: "Viewing the case as a lawyer, the decision of the Supreme Court in dismissing the appeal is amply supported by the authorities cited. "To ascertain the appeal, the jurisdictional question became paramount and the Supreme Court answered this inquiry in the negative. This court has repeatedly held that the prohibition enjoined by the first section of the Fourteenth Amendment applies to state action by state agencies only. LIVE EVER, DIE NEVER PROPHET JAILED "The segregation ordinances which Judge Rose struck down in the case of Dr. William T. Coleman, which I, as Dr. Coleman's attorney, attached, were laws passed by a state agency, to wit, Clay between private individuals respecting the control and disposition of Baltimore; in the Curtis case, the action was based upon a contract of their own property. NEW YORK- Elizad W. Roberson, head of the Live Eve, Die Never sect, and otherwise known as "The Black Christ," pleaded guilty last week to the vantage of the Mann Act and was sentenced to 18 months in the federal prison at Atlanta. "Those who became parties to this agreement were bound by its terms. The court declined, to consider the contract, only to the extent to decide that it sailed no federal question and therefore, late, the court benefit of insufficiency. The government spent $50,000 in several months in collecting evidence "Several clients have sought my advice about the marketability of titles affected by similar contracts and I have uniformly refused He were a steel gray, gutt, long straightened hair, whiskers and long eyelashes, represented themselves as Jews from Palestine, Abysinia and Jerusalem. One government agent who secured a position, told me about with him from one city to another and discovered the fact that he had a palatial home in New York, a settlement home for Negro children. Actually it was a farm where were located a number of young girls set apart especially for Romans. He believed that they were to children only for him. "These contracts, however, affect only property owners who are parties to them; the property owners who decline to sign them are not, and they are free to dispose of their property in the open market." W. ASHBIE HAWKINS: "In the very first sentence of the opinion the Court disposes of the matter by declining jurisdiction giving as its reason, therefore, the absence in the record of any federal question. "It is not a victory of course for us, and it is by no means a victory for the SEGREGATIONists, the Court distinctly leaving out of its consideration any attempt to discuss the merits of the case." It just happens to 'he' another of those unfortunate cases supposed to involve, inquire by, or consult or means or requests, before our course's 'last resort'. Some 20 children were wired with sensors. Robertson is said to be their bearer. J. STEWART DAVIS: "I think the Supreme Court straddled the whole question. Nothing is settled by it; and the only thing decided is that in that particular case the court decided that it did not have jurisdiction. So far as the question of segregation or account of race or disbarment by agreement, the question is still as much open following as before this decision. A number of young girls, soon to be mothers, age 15 years up, were in court as witnesses, as also a dozen other young women with b LEWIS S. FLAGG: "I am in complete agreement with the decision of the Supreme Court on the issue, as presented to them. "They could have not decided otherwise and adhered to the decision. This, however, does not change the fact that the issue, regarding the color or race is legal. The issue involved was a group agreement, as such (did not conflict with the 14th Amendment, which refers to state or state agent action). Some 14 or more aides of Robertson have been also indicted by the Grand Jury and, are likely, to stand trial. They are said to have swindled the public out of sums thought to be as large as $1,000 a day. ROY S. BOND: "I have the greatest respect for any decision coming from the Supreme Court and have not been able to give this question the searching study. I would like to make before making comment.

Photo by Penn Studio SUPREME COURT DISMISSES THE CURTIS APPEAL Segregation Case Thrown Out For Want of Jurisdiction DECISION OKEYS PROPERTY AGREEMENT Right To Place Restrictive Clauses In Deeds Is Upheld WASHINGTON, D. C.— The United States Supreme Court last Monday dismissed the Curtis case, which involved the legality of an agreement among a number of property holders not to sell, lease or rent their property to colored persons. The court held that there was no constitutional question involved and, therefore, it lacked jurisdiction. The effect of this "eclector" is to leave in force an injunction, issued by the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, restraining Mrs. Irene Hand Corrigan, from selling and Mrs. Helen Curtis from buying the premises a. No. 1727 S street, northwest. Suit for an injunction was brought by John 1. Buckley. He claimed that Mrs. Corrigan is one of thirty persons who had entered into a covenant June 1, 1921 running with the land, providing that no part of their property should ever be used or occupied by, or sold, leased or given to any person, or blood for a period of 21 years. On September 26, 1922, Mrs. Corrigan entered to Mrs. Curtis, the Supreme Court for an injunction. Mrs. Corrigan and Mrs. Curtis filed motions to dismiss the covenant, was unconstitutional, and contrary to public policy. Their motions to dismiss were overruled. The Court dismissed their motions and a final decree was entered, enjoining the sale. The decision of the District Supreme Court was affirmed on appeal by the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia. Mrs. Corrigan and Mrs. Curtis then appealed to the United States Supreme Court on the ground that a review was authorized in that the case involved the construction or application of the Constitution and certain statutes of the United States. This appeal was allowed in June, 1924. The case was argued in the Supreme Court on January 8, 1926. The Supreme Courts decision will be found in full in another part of this paper. N. C.

Groselay is president ALUMNUS NAMES FOUR HOWARD PROFESSORS WHO ARE ELIGIBLE FOR THE PRESIDENCY Dean Kelly Miller, Dean Dwight Holmes, Dr. Charles Wesley, Dr. Ernest Just Are Educators Who Thru Experience, Training and Personality Are Qualified To Direct The University Bv ALUMNUS It is common talk around the capital that the Howard trustees do not want to make the error of the Lincoln Trustees, who elected a president first and then listened to the alumni. The attack of the Lincoln alumni embarrassed the appointee into a resignation. There is no galasaying the fact that any alumni who are not ready to face rifles at sunrise will never stand for a president, who does not satify their beliefs. If it is true that the Howard Trustees really desire to satisfy the demands of the alumni; it is impossible to exaggerate the contempt which is their belief. They will surely encourage for many the former mistakes by action that will merit the pinnacles of the thinking people. No Easy Task The trustees have no easy task in selecting a president for Howard and their action may be their motives will be suspected. Due to many unfortunate acts in the past they have come under fire. They must not expect to win back the public over night, but they will be able to quiet many critics, even Alumnus, if they make a selection that will commend Candidates Thus far these articles have refrained from discussing candidates who would prove suitable. To some readers, Alumnus has perhaps appeared as a deserving candidate, pulled up the fact is that the Howard administration was in such a deplorable situation that the writer want any patch for it, but the administration down for the erection of a more durable one built solidly upon a foundation. Duty Ended Moreover, Alumnus felt that his duty really ended when the administration decided to go on a perpetual vacation, but qualified it called him to be president only proper to define clearly the qualifications of the next president of Howard University, but reticence to name candidates has brought the accusation that the writer knew better but does not any to light. No Sidestep Alumnus will not sidestop the challenge. He will not give the trustees an advantage in maintaining that he is merely a student. He will provide advice to offer. He will now name four persons competent to hold the presidency of Howard University, and he will not go outside the Howard faculty for his quartet. He will now four men will serve Howard University with success and distinction. It will now be the responsibility of the trustees to show conclusively that any different student can anurally succeed of these four. Colored Man It is just about taken for granted that the next president of Howard University will be a college man, and it is equally colored that he will not have the trust. The trustee has just about exploded the trustees never had a real reason for appointing one of their own number, and now after such pliess publicity they have not even an excuse for such vulnerable acc Collegebred It is also admitted that the president will be a college bred man who has seen more of a college than the walls and lawns. On the color and training of the californiate there seems to be compromises. Even the extremists have been brought around to accept these two conditions. Sentiment There is a strong feeling (and the writer has it) that the first colored president of the university gave a graduate, of that institution. Call it sentiment, if you please, or an ill advised passion, but the fact is inexact. The university's prestige to herald to the world that in over a half century of existence, the university has not produced the graduate to whom the university may be entrusted. Unless, therefore, the public is to be frankly told, Howard advertisement, has failed dismally to produce an educator competent enough to be its president, and better gives an introspective gift at their own professors. Graduate The trustees can hardly appreciate what prestige they will bring to Howard University by allowing Howard graduate students to employ themselves in action at least, that a graduate of any other institution, regardless of his training or profession, was superior to, on their own best trained graduate. Neither the oppose opinion such an expert opinion by clearing a Howard man of known and approved qualifications. Who this Howard man should be will depend upon whether a representative of the "old school" or a representative of the "new school" is to be preferred by the trustees. If the "old school" is to be tried out in the presidency, Dean Miles has undisputed claim to the select- Dean Miller There is no professor at Howard University who has brought more distinction to Howard University than Dean Kelly Miller. He is the only known member of the Howard faculty. As a writer, he has national and international fame. As a thinker, he has distinguished himself with powerful judgments. As an educator, he gave the college of liberal arts the history that has won recognition for the course he mentally active philosophers of America, and is at home in any intellectual company. Raw Deal Many Howard sympathizers feel that Dean Miller, like Dean Cook has had his way with the course. That Dr. Durkee's election was conditioned partly on his willingness to humiliate Dean Miller, who did not stand expectantly. Whether this assertion is erroneous or not, the fact remains that Dean Miller, one of Howard's most illustrious alumni, was a "puny," but treated as such. Throughout his humiliation, Dean Kamenji was full of better days. His friends see no better method of completely banishing Durkheim the president. His claim, insofar as qualifications are concerned, is excellent. The tru- If, on the other hand, the "new school" is to be tried in the presidency Dean Dwight Holmes. He is through college education, are few Howard men, old or young, better known than Dean Holmes. He is thorough-going, popular, and well-educated. He or her ordered him years ago with an honorary degree, subsequently appointing him as registrar, and then advancement, subsequently in leadership of the college of education. Dean Holmes' professional education was received at Columbia and he received his M. A. degree. He is modernly trained, and has had experience in secondary, normal and college teaching. He is well as any living creature and is thoroughly conversant with all its problems. He has the highest degree and award members of the faculty. He has the kind of enthusiasm and optimism that is at present very much needed at his job. No Entanglements Moreover, Dean Holmes has not been entangled in any of the alliances at Howard. His bosom has been franchised and he has been neither a benchman nor a foe of Dr. Durke's, but plainly an efficient professor and officer with pristine Howard ideals. He might have an ideal and been willing to sacrifice ideals and has thus maintained the respect of the great Howard family. The presidency of Howard University in Dean Holmes' hands would be honored. **Tips on Sons** Thus Deans Miller and Holmes are at least two Howard sons who would make successful and distinguished presidents of their Alma Mater. Either would have an affair and offer advice, either is an actor and a student of education. The decision, if it fails between these two, will have to be determined by the trustees of Howard toward the "old schoolman" or towards the "new schoolman." Dr. Wesley If the trustees wish to pass up worthy Howard alumni, and yet remain within the university, the position of Dr. Charles Wesley an excellent prospect. A Bachelor from Fisk, a Master from Yale, and a Doctor from Columbia, he has won attention in the field of education. He is an experienced educator who has had close personal contact with students, and is a representative problems, though he is outranked by the deans already mentioned. Dr. Wesley has recognized students as educators. He is a persistent scholar whose influence among the students has always been hearty and beneficial. He is a point of interest to whom one may point for the students to emulate. He represents the very highest standard of scholarship, and in itself gives a president a kind of advice the development of standards. Perhaps the most outstanding qualification of Dr. Wesley is his modesty. He parades his knowledge and loves to append his degrees on his is merely a forceful scholar, teacher, and educator fully qualified by training, experience, and ability to Harvard University. Dr. Just Another Howard professor, not an alumnus, but equally qualified to preside over Howard University is Dr. Ernest H. H. H. H. H. H. Ph. D. Chicago. Dr. Just has won national and international fame as a scientist. It was his renown as a scientist from a medal awarded. He has been trained under severe standards, and in turn he has become the very best of scientists. He has always stood for a strong A. B. and B. S. degree at Howard, rather than for a weak initial degree and an almost meaningless advanced degree. Ever since he has been connected with Howard University, he has fought for scholastic ideals. Trained in two of the most respected institutions of higher education, he has the opportunity to compare the ideals of the schools which trained him with those of the school in which he has been working. Before Dr. Durkees' advent, Dr. Juxta played a very interesting building up the recognized standards of the college that Dr. Durkee deserves. Student Of Education Dr. Just is not merely a scientist of note but a student of education. He knows college courses he will be competent to handle any situation in university administration. His work at Howard has not been continued. He courses in the medical school. He knows exactly what should be done at Howard, and he surely would rehabilitate the university if he were elected presi- Any One Competent These four names mentioned in abbreviated fashion will serve to indicate to the reader that right at Howard University there are at least four professors, who are whom it is intended to fill the presidency of Howard University. Many names outside of Howard might be mentioned, but the writer's aim is to challenge the trustees to elect a name from without that else, more favorable attention than any one of these four names from with- Throne's Topple No credence should be given to the comeback that a promotion of any Howard professor will protract warfare. Thrones topple and weak kings. Howard must strong kings. What Howard needs is a administration. All the lilies that have crept in have been due to the administration which substituted henchmanship and sycophancy pedagogical knowledge, strength, and There are no feuds at Howard. The trustees, most unfortunately, tried to have the faculty raised the question of "for" or "against" the president. Howard is merely suffering for want of leadership. Any one of them is competent to revive the lost morale, though the job will be a stupendous one. Not one of these proactive qualities as to think of rewarding friends and punishingoes. Each is too thorough an educator as to fall into such an error. No One Close It so happens that no one of these professors is medically close to the departing administration. Such Baltimore, Md. men would hardly be expected to be chosen by such an administration for advice. In fact, not one of them escaped petty annoyance. They have not been treated because of their own merit, but because of their well known merits. The very worst president to select for Howard University is the person who will win the trustee two votes for his appointment. The trustee who "puts over" an election is naturally the one who forever afterwards wants to be president. In the case, the president has to become the veritable tool of his benevolent friend, or else becomes guilty of unapparent ingratiance. Trustee's car is the reason why any trustee's car should form a part of the ornament of the Howard Campus, but such was the case when a trustee was responsible for a college or university president must have free BURY DR.

Daily News) Joe Roberson, white, residing about four miles north of the city and Dearborn, Michigan, was yesterday afternoon placed under police bonds by Magistrate W. S. Lyon. Jones had sought to have Roberson placed under peace bond but ended up by having the peculiar case, Magistrate Lyon would not allow introduced as testimony of improvisation of the defense of improper conduct between Mrs. Roberson, Mrs. Dearborn, and her daughter of Roberson was questioned as to whether she had seen any evidence of improper conduct between the two and replied no. She was a witness for her father Roberson, who was a witness against his father. This boy was asked if his father had not been indicted on charges of making an attack on a grandmother in the affair, but it was brought out that the case was nolle pressed in Superior Court. Roberson was given a hearing recently before S. S. Mitchison and $10 on charges of whipping his boy, this being brought out in the evidence. Land At Pole?

Board of Directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People "TURBOTT WOLFE"— By William Plomer. Published by Harcourt, Brace and Company, $33 Madison avenue, New York City. Price $2.00. By mail $2.10. "Turbott Wolfe" is a book about South Africa and its native problem. It depicts an Englishman of fine qual- ties, an artist, a humanitarian, thrown with intolerably cheap colonials and Dutch settlers, or with people who, if not cheap, are so old as to be unlaugh- ered. These ignorant, ill-mannered white settlers talk of the natives as nothing but animals, while the men have their black mistresses and their black families. They bring disease with them and they despise African culture. Turbott Wolfe finds the last word to be said of them and of the white man's civilization in Africa, whether it be trader or agriculturist or missionary is "Unclean." Of the African, the picture drawn is very different. Unlike Sarah Millin, who wrote of South Africa in "God's Stepchildren," he finds much that is beautiful and dignified in the African though he also sees that the best in the savage is being destroyed by so-called civilization. He thus describes a native girl to whom he is attracted: "She was a fine rare savage of a type you will find nowhere now; it has been killed by the missionaries, the poor whites and the towns, the poor blacks and perfectly beautiful. I have never seen such consummate dignity. She was an ambassadress of all that beauty (it might be called holiness) that old woman of primitive Africa lived-life outside history, outside time, outside science." A very different picture from the squatting savages in Millin's tale, or the incredibly dirty creatures in the French Africa The plot of the book is slight, but it is bold enough to deal plaintly with miscegement, and with the passion that a white woman has for beauty. But ultimately it has given the author the opportunity to talk about the ever interesting theme of color. Of South Africa, the writer says that there are two characters: "Native question, indeed! My good man there is no native question. It's an answer. I don't know whether people are wiltly blind that they can't see the world, or as dead as a door nulll in this country. His three principal characters get together and form a society of blacks and whites that stands firmly for miscegement as inevitable. In this world is coming and they believe that they will prepare the way. The new missionary, one of the three, counts this more suitable work than teaching in nature, and this man and other such Old Testament tales. Of course, disaster comes to all three, and Turbott Wolfe, for whom you have a growing affection, and whom the nurses give up in his work and return to England. He is who tells the story as he lies slowly dying of African fever. Here is one of the conclusions that he gives to his listening friend: "If you are thoroughly you will find that ultimately, our civilization is obscene. It has always seemed to me to be the chief mistake of our age that we take it for granted that science is a panacea. Science has been to produce noise."

Supreme Court's Segregation Decision Say County Police Aided Lynchers 14 Now Under Arrest A. AND T. FACULTY GETS NEW MEMBERS GREENSBORO, N. C.—Dr. F. D VOLUME Picture 4. The desire for abnormal sex relations Mrs. Thomas testified was the cause why her husband beat her sometime. This delicate testimony was given behind closed doors. Spectators were barred from the inner chambers as this testimony was given. U. S. Supreme Segrega The opinion of the U. S. Supreme Court, rendered by Justice Sanford, in the now famous Curtis Segregation is as follows: The mere assertion that the case is one involving the construction or application of the Constitution, and in which the construction of Federal laws is drawn in question, does not, however, authorize this Court to entertain an appeal; and it is our duty to decline jurisdiction if the record does not present such a constitutional or statutory question substantial in character and properly raised below. Sugarman v. U.S., 240 U.S. 182, 184; Zucht v. King, 260 U.S. 174, 176. And under well settled rules, jurisdiction is wanting if such questions are so unsubstantial as to be plainly without color of merit and frivolous. Wilson v. North Carolina, 160 U.S. 586, 595; Lelmar Jockey Club v. Missouri, 210 U.S. 324, 335; Binderup v. Pathe Exchange, 263 U.S. 291, 305; Moore v. New York Cotton Exchange, No. 200, decided April 12, 1926. "Under the pleadings in the present case, the only constitutional requirement is that the indenture or bill be "void," in that it is a contrary to and forbidden by the Fifth, Thirteenth Amendments. The contention is entirely lacking in substance or color of the general Government. The contention is仅仅 upon the powers of the General Government. "Talion not directed against the action of individuals. The Thirteenth Amendment provides a statutory service, that is, a condition of enforced compulsory service. It matters protect the individual rights of persons of the Nogra race. Hodgson prohibits the prohibitions of the Fourteenth Amendment "have reference to state action of private individuals." Virginia V. Hives, 100 U. S. 313; 318. It is state action of a particular kind that is prohibited. Individual invasion of individual rights is the Amendment. Civil Rights Cases, 109 U. S. 3, 11. It is obvious that the private individuals from entering into contracts respecting the control and disposition of the individual from entering into contracts that they rendered the indenture void. No color for the contention that they were to be looked in, in connection with the provisions of the courts, in determining the contention, earnestly pressed, against public policy, does not involve a constitutional question with a meaning of the code provision. "The claim that the defendants drew in question in 'construction' of September 20, 1978 and 179 of the Revised Statutes, is equally unsusistent. The only question raised was to these statutes when the bloodings was the assertion in the motion interposed by the defendant Curtis, that the indictment is valid in that it is forbidden by the laws enacted in Say County Police Aided Lynchers 14 Now Under Arrest LABELLE, FLA—Six more men, making a total of 14, were arrested here tonight, charged with first degree murder following the death of Henry Patterson, colored, who was lynched by a mob last Tuesday.

Wins Colonial Davis Prize CLEVELAND, OHIO.—Monroe Gregory, colored student at East Carolina, was awarded the clined winner of the IFst Prize in the Essay Contest sponsored by the Colonial Dames of America and conducted through the high schools.

The essay will be forwarded to Washington. FRED B. WASON During his wife's allegations, Archie Thomas said the whole trouble was his wife didn't want to live in the country and wanted an automobile. She often had violent fits of temper, he said and kicked or jumped on the table- aid and under the sanction of the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Amendments. Assuming that this content drew in question the "construction" of these statutes, as distinguished upon their face, upon their face, that while they provided, inter alia, that all persons and citizens shall have equal right with white citizens to make contracts and acquire property, they, like the constitutional amendment under whose jurisdiction in any manner prohibit or invalidate contracts entered into by private individuals in respect of their own property. There is no color for the content of such a provision void; nor was it claimed in this Court that they laid, in and of themselves, any such "We therefore conclude that methylene ester questions raled on as grounds for the court have any substantial burden or afford any jurisdictional basis for them." "And while it was further urged in this Court that the decrees of law, in violation of the constitution, the defendants of their liberty and property without due process of law, in violation of the constitution, the defendants of their liberty, this contention likewise cannot serve as a jurisdictional basis for the appeal. Assumption of substantial character, might have constituted ground for appeal, but the judge provision, it was not raised by the petition for the appeal or by any assistance of the Court of Appeals, or in this Court; and it likewise is lacking in substitution or statutory right; and there is no provision that the decrees were so plainly arbitrary and contrary to law as to require Jockey Club v. Missouri, supra, 335. More error of court, if any, was made in this hearing, does not constitute a denial of due process of law. Central Land Company v. Lafley, 118, Court Coal, 240, U. S. v. 328, Creek Coal Co, 240, U. S. v. 328." "I results that in the absence of any substantial constitutional or legal provision of this appeal under the provisions of section 250 of the Judicial Code of the State of California of the contents curiously pressed by the defendants in this Court that the indenture is not only a contract, but also a disciplinary character that a court of law may also consider in order to forcing the specific performance of the covenant. These are questions involving consideration of rules of conduct, or statutory provision, but claimed to be a part of the common or genital contract, and, pithily, they may not be reviewed under this appeal unless jurisdiction of the case is other." "Hence, without a consideration of these questions, the appeal must be dismissed for want of jurisdiction." GREENSBORO, N. C.—Dr. F. D. Bluford was re-elected president of A. and T.

Beforehand Judge Murray ejected the verdict, but what the verdict might be, it was to be resolved calmly and intelligently. When George C. Smail white, the judge, said, "No verdict is. Not Guilty," the spectators gasped, and then one fellow way back in the audience began to applaud. Some one reminded him of the judge's warning and he suddenly ceased. The jury began to leave the room. Danny Sweet, Henry Sweet and others rushed forward and shook hands with the jury, thanking them for their verdict. It was the juries, "there wasn't one evidence to convict you." Funds Are properly Deposited Denies Elk Funds Are Improperly Deposited Cleveland O.

"The Order of Elks has around $100,000 in cash, $50,000 of which are in Richmond, Va. and these banks pay no interest whatever on a $17,000 deposit they have had for near ten years, per cent in $34,000 which has been with them for a long time." By way of reply Mrs. Carter says, "I have never put a dollar of Bikl funds in a single bank which did not pay interest. The lowest rate does not cost and I challenge Mr. Puco to disprove this statement. "Not until 1922, less than four years ago, I was able to pay $15,000 at $15,000 an one-bank. Now I ask in view of this fact how much I can afford to deposit for ten years in any bank."

Monday afternoon's audience demonstrated their pleasure vigorously and frequently. Specialties by all of the members and a laughable "bit" by William McConico, Hope, and Anna Mae Reynolds compose the hill. Margaret Durrah and Miss Reylande did a sister specialty that called on a dance. Miss Durrah added one of the hits of the afternoon. Pearl Lee soiled nicely and Mary Bradford was obliged to repeat her clever dance, and to how several times before the "customers" would release her. Kid Wiley, a comic, also romped home one of the winners. Evelyn Miles and Elaine Browne are the choristers. Hope had a chance to shine in the sketch, and did so with all of the brilliance expected of him. He proved the same irrepressible talker that he has always been, and interpolated some talk that had the customers writhing with joy. Most of the material was written by the students, and lived home. For genuine amusement value this company has not been surpassed and rarely equaled here this season. Some people, comments Robert L.

HART EVER OFFERED A SPECIAL MIDNIGHT SHOW THIS SUNDAY NIGHT, MAY 30th A 3-HOUR SHOW DORA COLE NORMAN DIRECTS PRODUCTION Every Detail The Work Of Colored Artists Including Scenery PHILADELPHIA (E. N. S.) —One of the outstanding events of the Negro participation in Sesqu-centennial International Exposition to be held in Philadelphia from June 1 to December I will be the presentation of a mammoth pageant, "Loyalty's Gift" on July 12th in the great auditorium. The pugnant has a number of striking episodes and is intended to appeal to the human sympathetic understanding of the group for the Negro. It is a highly matric picture of the development of the race, even suggesting by one episode the early Egyptian days and the black people with that period. Mrs. Norman. Director The Negro spirituals, which are being recognized as the only truly American folk songs, will form an integral part in the spectacle which is to be presented under the direc-tion of Dora Cole. Norman, widely known as the composer and sister of the late Bob Cole, "I am trying to have these people use their native creative sense in the pageant, to harmonize, to express the music and the rhythm that is peculiarly their own," said Mrs. Norman in explaining the idea of the pageant which she has writ- All Colored Production **Production** Every detail of the production is the work of colored people with the exception of the "Star Spangled Banner" which brings in the proper patriotic note as a climax.

She played the leading colored women's role in Eugene Got Wings, in its prequel Got Wings, when it pitched by the Provincetown players in New York last winter. The part was that of "Hattie", the sister of the leading Negro character in the play. One of her greatest accomplishments was as organizer and director of the Guillemot Club in York, a dramatic club planned to stimulate the creative arts among her race.

The fault is not with reable in the Nordic companies. It is most distressing to see—"straight" men with perfect clothes and good voices spoil a good act with an execution of Kings English. They interchange was and when it should be, and placing it where none required. The words of songs, though generally trite, are usually placed in their proper relation to each other, but male and female singers somehow or other manage to juggle them into the most horrible forms.

Miss Mills in "Dixie to Broadway," adhered closer to the better of the law than any of the companies she had graced the title for years. The current companies sailing under this false title are nothing more than a potpourri of songs, dances and "bits" or situations. The title musical comedy was an honest one and consisted of a well conceived and coherent plot, and afforded much enjoyment. Perhaps one may be a little too squishy about a title, but why not call things by their proper names and stop oleomargering them by false application. "TITLES TOO Then too the highbait titles selected are stupid in the extreme also, and there is much to condemn in the sinemess of many of them.

She is the sister of Bill conspires to have Don arrested the day before for violating the government's injunction, trespassing on the "strip" before the signal is given. Don escapes in time to engage in the "rush," and establishes a bond for Molly. On the way back he captures Noll and a confederate and deliver: them to the soldier's post. Don then is exonerated, and finds Molly. who shoots. These shots are rather impressive, showing the unending rolling prairie trumpeted by vast outlaws of cattle as far as the eye can reach.

History, we know, lessily, repeat itself at the Central avenue player in the film; the story from Vilma Bankey, the feature artist, is the picture is adapted is by Pushkin Russia's famous colored author. Having won our way past the coveted doors, what do we see? Prankly, but we have been given a story to justice to his better gracer. As line a lover as over. But less according to shiek standards. "Ruddy" has been given a free rein, with the result that we have here a portrayal of an appealing lover, appealing to intelligent womankind. But with a more pleasing technic. He is the man's man here as well as the woman's ideal. Brave, courtly and picturequeen. Nor will he lessen any in the eyes of the idolizing "gumchewing stenog." For he remains all right. The big difference is that he will probably win new devise. The kind that (excepting the widely accepted "Four Horsemen" and "Mons. Beaulacare") were wary of patronizing a sleep Valentine presented in blood and thunder doses. This "Intelligentism" should now be four game, for Alexander Pushkin, or whose story the film is based. composition. The arrangement on 6 colorful background of gorgeous settings is noteworthy. Clarence Bentley's *The Woman in the Window* which audio frequently have the picture on the blink of broad comedy. One other thing. If the women have Valentine the man has, they will look at the eyes and an ad-hoc narrator, to the; excellence of the film.

The girls were worn in the country. The Baltimore Melody Boys furnished the suits, and there were a number of sheeps who attempted to "crash the gate," but there was so much protection they were decidedly out of luck. Journalists' Sons Here A son of Roscoe Conkling Simmons, the journalist and orator, is playing the Royal Theatre this week.

"Billboard" Jackson, now of the "Washington Tribute", is a member of "Rumlin" with Jackson, who is a proven capable performer. The fourth estate is very proud of these additions to the elevation of the stage. At the going away party tonight in New York, Roscoe Conkling, junior, was master of ceremonies. The older Simmons is known as a "silver tongued orator" so the choosing of the缸 for the post is easily explained. Land On Their Feet The moving picture operators in this township are a versatile lot.

ROYAL *W. C. HANDY'S 'BLUES IS VALUABLE WORK New Book Traces History of Songs And Forty Compositions FIRST AUTHENTIC WORK PUBLISHED Volume Is Full Of Interesting Romance And Adventure NEW YORK—W. C. Handy's "Blues" is just off the press and is receiving favorable mention in the book, which is edited by the famous "Dance of the Blues," with an introduction by Abbe Niles, Miguel Covarubius illustrated the volume. Beside the critical and historical introduction there are over 40 nummered volumes of the blues, including Williams, Hart A. Wand, Spencer Willis, George Gershwin, Irving Burlin and half a dozen others. Niles's comedic volume is one of romance and adventure, shows not only how the songs came out of the mood of a race, but how gifted individuals took the material and made it a book for successive reworking. Much of the book revolves around W. C. Handy, who sang "Little Annie Roney" with a quartet in Florence, Italy, in the 1883 Fair in Chicago in 1885. Handy joined Mahra's Minstrels played the preposterous songs of the nineties most of them manufacture turned on Broadway, finally evolve into the blues. Mahra's no longer his. Handy's "interpolated minor third" is now the authenticity of blue blues. The treatment is detailed and memorable; he discusses the fundamentals of blues, white and black; Gershwin's comments on hathats, blues; jazz ragtime. Despite the similarity of Mahra's music to the server, individual enters into every composition, and composers have done much to modify and even dissect blues. "But the blue blues is a test color," says the author, "and shows no sign of running out." Year Three notable books on Nero music have come within the last year. The Book of Neo Blues, by Mellows, by Emmett Kennedy, also contains an essay on the street cries of New Orleans. "Blues" is a valuable companion and is a comprehensive anthology. Mme.

JACKSON HEADS THE ACTOR'S UNION --- ate-Editor. Elected Presi- dent On Sunday WASHINGTON.—At a meeting of the board of directors of the Colored Actors' Union held on last Sunday in the Mid-City Theatre Building, J. A. "Billboard" Jackson, of the staff of the Washington Tribune, was elected president of the union. Teifair Washington, who has been secretary since the Union was founded, was re-elected, and S. H. Dudley was again voted unanimously. George Houston, Sam Robinson and J. Hend Bowman were elected vice presidents. The directors voted a salary of $50 a year for the secretary, and passed a resolution providing that the retiring president, Jules McCarthy, the new secretary, and re-elected secretary and manager be given a life membership exempt from dues. Meeting Harmonious Seven of the board of directors elected this year were in attendance at the meeting. Bart Kenneth, chief deputy and director, Summy Graham, Honeyey Garnet, Washington, and J. A. Jackson. The absentees were Eugene Hooten, Wella and Weils, Jules McGarr and Wesley Wilson, the shows of the league in our tour, the pressure weve received Hooten from leaving Baltimore. The meeting adjourned to call an executive session on Wednesday afternoon at which time plans for the annual rumple, a surprise, and the business was aspected. The meeting on Sunday was marked by complete harmony Delaney Writes Nine Tom Delaney, local song writer, is rapidly being recognized as one of the most successful composers in the profession. Recently he placed nine numbers with New York publishers and recording companies. Something was creepy about him: "Louisiana Mess Amazing" danced and song number glorifying the New Orleans craze which is said by experts to be another "Charleston." Billy Pierce, the casting age 2 and dancing instructor of New York, has become interested in the number and plus to place it in one of the vues the song itself for the song season. Pierce, it is recalled, and Buddy Bradley staged the latest edition of the "Greenwick Village Folklore." Delaney also "hagged the number with "Runnin' Wild" Several months ago the AFRD AMERICAN predicted that the "Mess Around the World" dancers both in and out of the profession, and admonished colored artists to capitalize the dance before the craze became "cold." Delaney says that he foresees a demand for dancers written. Much of the success of Ethel Waters, Margaret Johnson and other singers has been due to Delaney, who wrote the "Down Home Blues" for her and "Nobody Knows the Way I Cried This Morning," for the latter artist. Attacks Girl Who Ordered Arrest While a warrant was laying in the Western District for Dallas Morgan, 677 Pierce street, for assaulting and shooting at Miss Maggie Gilcrest, of the same address, he was arrested by Northwestern District authorities for cutting her Sunday night.

Sunday night as she was leaving the home of Mrs. Chara Chiseh, 64 George street, he appeared from an alley and approached the head and face. The woman was removed to the Colonel Hospital where 20 stitches were required to dress the wound. Morgan was arrested a short distance from where the assault occurred. He was sentenced to three months in the House of Correction by Magistrate Johannson Monday morning. COME TO THE COUNTRY Mrs. Geo. W. Mitchell Mitchellsville, Md.

Bowling, Tennis, Track And Water Sports SPORT OF ALL SORTS News Of The Ring And What Boxers Are Doing WILBUR COHEN LOSES VERDICT TO NATE CARP COHEN INJURES HAND IN EIGHTH SESSION Floored in Whirlwind Bout When Visitor Suffers Injury Wilbur Cohen of New York failed knock out. Nato Carp of Baltimore Monday night at the 10th Regiment Armory and Carp was given the decision. Thereby hangs l. tale. Nobody was disappointed at the decision. It was freely said before the bout that untimely death of Nato Carp to murder his man before the twelve rounds were up, the fight would go to Carp, so it did. Carp seemed more surprised than anybody else at the decision. But the judge he had won, so the judge didn't dispute them. Busted Handball It was has last and furious battle with Cohen, but Cohen slowed up in the eighth when he had Nate on the verge of a knock-out. Cohen was in that round, but for a splintered hand just as Carp was getting ready to take a tumble. The injured member was on the floor, the fight and it is doubtful if Wilbur will be able to go thrush with his bout with Johnny Harko in Philadelphia Friday night. Baltimore laden rarely landed a clean blow, most of his efforts were limited to ingesting. Cohen's punches were well used, the viciousness that looked nigher bad for his opponent. Sportsmanship Cohen was roundly cheered for his clean sportsmanship on several occasions when he had a Carp most likely to win. He deliberately stepped back to give him time to regain his posture. On the other hand, Carp tried to keep his grip on the ropes for the one time. Once Carp lifted Cohen's leg up over the ropes in an effort to throw him out. Even the Baltimoremasters closest friends missed Carp Almost Out Carp had a slim margin in the first three rounds, the next five went to Cohen, who the suffering injury hung in the eighth on Cohen carried the remaining four. It was the eight that fists stood up to Cohen go in for the kill as Carp was on his last legs. It was a terrific blow to the jaw that almost brought death to Carp and Cohen to Carp. The third was such a hundredness that nobody heard the bell, both men fought for it, but the fight could be heard. Cohen slipped in the fourth to the floor. Carp rushed in thinking it a knockdown, but fighting before Referee Short could begin a count and fairly rained fists at Carp sending him across the ring under a terrific fight and fete to end and head. Altho Carp was given the decision. Carp became a new friend by his clean lightning here in his second appearance. Benny Schwartz who was knocked out by Cohen some time ago challenged the winless Cohen to Return The biggest crowd of the season turned out to see the bout. Cohen has already signed articles for a return match with Zachary Levi 7 with an appeal to be named. Many fans would like to see Cohen and Carp fight again. A draw decision would have been bad enough, but before he headed Baltimore the morning Cohen said such things were all in the game, but his manager, Maxey Hough, was really hot under the collar at the ender. For the final promoter and Philadelphia sportsman, was in Cohen's corner. Cambridge, Mass.-Without the broad jumping ability of Ned Gourdin.

The photograph accompanying this article shows Principal Mason A. Hawkins posing with a group of the girl students in the school revue, which was featured by jazz music, cabaret dancing and other vaudeville stunts. incidentally no financial report has been made of the revue for this year. It is said that $1,100 was cleared. Of this amount $500 went to pay off expenses incurred by the school in 2009, replace the deposit money paid in by students for their locker keys. As an evidence of the jazz spirit of the school, patrons point out that instead of a single assembly beginning with teachers reading the Bible, prayer and inspirational talks, students are divided into three or four sections and have three or four assemblies Berlin's "Remember" and "Always," are favorite selections for the students at these schools to recite weeks one girl who essayed to recite Dunbar's "Colored Soldiers," was booed and left the stage.

Another who began his recitation which was a little more than a vaudeville show in "inventor" and born in "inventor" on the light of the dark moon" was loudly aplied. In an anonymous letter sent to the AFRO this week one student wrote that the principal at the assembly used such epithets as "a low bred dog," "fool" "harbarian" referring to the pupils. The letter reiterated the fact that the school authorities are unable to maintain discipline, as the result of which the children are not permitted to go out into the streets to be accustomed to the light in the basement of the building. Other high schools of this city and Washington according to the letter, permit their students to go out into the streets and get a little fresh air during recess.

"Chippy" Taylor had held the second highest record up until Bush made his record breaking score Saturday. Bush had five strikes and two spares to his credit and made 9, 10, and 9 in the other three boxes. The record is considered all the more remarkable because of the fact that bowling has been popular among fans only within the past few years.

He never mentions that he has read Mr. Edgren's account of Wills' ring battles with Pirro, Weintner and Floyd Johnson. Of course he had to admit that Wills won from them, but Mr. Edgren says they were slow dull affairs and Harry showed no aggressiveness in any of them. He also said that poor old Johnson was ready to fight the light and Weintner, who entered the ring. Mr. Edgren failed to state that the same old "Wild Bull" had Dempsey on the canvas while the scales were reversed when Fipp fought Wills. He forgot to mention that Wills had the roaring Argentine stretched out in a horizontal position before the light had progressed four rounds. DEMPSEY VS. LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT He also forged to statue that Dempsey has been idle since when he went a slow 15 round bout with Tommy Gibbons, a light heavyweight. Besides knocking out George Carpenter, another light heavyweight was badly beaten by Battling Sullivan, the most successful man since gaining the heavyweight crown was to have his nose made over. Billy Miske, Bill Brenan, Firblo, Gibbons and Carpenter are the sun-tanned athletes in which Mr. Edgern overlooked his previous articles before Wills ballets with Johnson, Weilert and Sirro in which he stated that Harry's opponents were in the best condition and but a knockout was in store for the "Pumpered" Wills, who was in his own way worse how Wills took advantage of the decrytter fighters who were fit subjects for the Old Soldiers home or where ever they send ex-prize fighters. We would just like to know what Mr. Edgern intends doing with Dempsey who was his best defender his rusky crown. As a champion Dempsey is a bust. As a movie actor he is worse.

Saunders, 1963 McElderry street, filed a suit against Lawward Pague to recover $5,000 for false arrest and malicious prosecution, Friday. The arrest of Saunders was occurred when he failed to answer a summons to appear in the Northeastern police station, issued on the request of Attorney Josiah Henry and Eugene thereafter, for a shortage that occurred on his books.

SEND $1.00 TO-DAY SOX AFTER DOUBLE WIN OVER GIANTS Oscar Charleston and his Harrisburg Giants will tackle the Black Sox Sunday in a double bill for the right to hold first position in the Eastern league. The Senators were perched in the honor position by a very slim margin. A double win by the Sox will put the Taylorites on top with a slight lead. If they divide Sunday's doubleheader, the two leading clubs will hold their relative positions. If the Sox drop both games and Hilldale wins Thursday and Saturday from the Lincoln Giants the local club will take a toboggan to third place in the league. The Sox have been going like a house allure this spring and nothing short of a two game victory over the Harrisburg outfit will satisfy the Monumental entry.

"Babe Ruth" Wilson has established a dizzy pace with an average of 550, Beckwith is second with 433, Holloway is hitting the apple at a 360.

Thoughts Of The Founder Selected from the writings of the founder of the Afro-American —F. L. M. Decoration Day "We turn from our business, pressing tho it may be, and from pleasures and our happiness to drop a parting tear over the graves of our beloved comrades who have gone only a little before. And thus it always is, whether in the ice bound hut of the Laplander or on the burning plains of the great desert, the cry of bereavement goes up to the great white throne for lost ones, dear ones, departed ones. Thus it will always be until He who hung out the sun which shines by day, and the moon and stars shall have decreed that death shall reign no longer. May we not hope that our comrades who have passed into the great beyond, having served their probation here, have gone to a higher and better life, where there is no more sorrow, no more pain and best of all no more death." Sweet Case The not-guilty verdict in the case of Mr. Henry Sweet, charged in the case of Detroit, Michigan, with the death of Leon E. Bremer, a mason, and menet, in the white attack, the sweet home last which is not, in the last analysis a personal victory for Mr. Henry Sweet or for his brother, Dr. Ossian Sweet, also accused. The Sweets deserve full credit for their residence upon living in the home they purchased despite the threats of the mob that they move. Their courage in attack and in fighting their case to the finish made possible the success. Neither does the case determine the great principle that a man's home is his castle and that a Negro hemi-owner has the right to shoot and kill white members of a mob which attacks him. This is borne out by a statement of a member of the jury who said clearly and distinctly "Sweet was set free because there wasn't sufficient evidence to convict him." The right to defend his home against a mob could only be called a question when and if he pled guilty to shooting the member of the mob and decried he did so in defense of his own life and his own property. The outcome of the Sweet case is a personal victory for Mr. Clarence Darrow, Chicago's great criminal lawyer, and his associates, who gave their services in this case, because they thought they were doing a great philanthropic work. Frequently throughout the trial Mr. Darrow interrupted witnesses showed that they were motivated by race prejudice and openly told them that they were lying. Over and over again he repeated the statement that Negroes are citizens and are entitled in the court to a fair The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People can rightly credit for this publication. This Association has made segregation a national issue, and moreover it has collected during the year $7,000 from colored people all over country to fight the Sweet and similar cases. While the Sweet case has given us evidence of the courage of the Sweet family, the fine spirit of Mr. Darrow and his cousin Jesse in Detroit courts juries, the most significant fact of all is that under the leadership of the National Association Negroes of the country combined to fight the Sweet contributions they have said we have suffered in silence under this situation long enough. We have made verbal protests enough. From the fact that we are going to the cas in the hands of the courts. We are going to put up the money and we are going to seek the legal advice of the best white friends we have. If Justice fails us then, God help America.

In response, the United States' Supreme Court is reported it should be published also this reply of Mr. Johnson which will one day become famous. Despite its high position the Supreme Court has not always had the last word in interpretation of the law. The Supreme Court has famous fugible, slave law decision 70 years ago is a case in point. The chief justice Roger B. Taney declared in that now infamous case that the white man is bound to respect the motion a few years later reversed this verdict by the citizen War of the People, the beginning of the Civil War also the same Chief Justice declared that President Lincoln did not have the power to revoke the right of the slave to be freed, a case of John Berryman, white, arrested and confined to Fort McLeary, Baltimore on the South side of the Confederates. Mr. Lincoln, however, did revoke the right of habea corpus and kept Berryman under military guard. Mr. Taney, the slave owner, Negro in the decision of the Supreme Court, setting the Curtsis despite whatever general impunity may be implied in the conviction of John Berryman, included Jerry Sanford, of Tennessee, the youngest, but one member on the Supreme Bench appointed barely three years ago, by the good-natured, Mr. Hardy. The court decreed that any person or persons, white or black, yellow or red have a right to resist the use of their property by contract. Attorneys for Mrs. Curtis contended that the contract was contrary to and forbidden by the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. The court held, however, that none of these amendments prohibited private property against contracts which would govern the control of their property. It said the Fifth Amendment is a limitation on the powers of the general government in directing individual action. It said the Fourteenth Amendment has reference only to state action and not private persons. It said the Thirteenth Amendment with abolition of slavery and involuntary servitude and does not extend beyond that in protecting the individual rights of the Negro race. The decision opened the door to indictment for further proceedings in the lower district court if Mrs. Curtis can find some other grounds for retaliation the constituent legislature It was this that Secretary Johnson son had in mind to establish the Association's law beliefs that some new angle will be presented from which to judge from them. Judge Stanton The AFRO has made a frequent appeal to the Supreme Bench of Baltimore city for a proper balance in the dispensation of justice. When plaintiffs and defendants are colored and guilt is proven the sentence has sounded, the judge on the other hand where the plaintiff is white and the defendant colored the sentence has been unusually severe. On this week, he Judge Stanton in Criminal Court. Not long ago this jurist handed out a 40 year sentence to a man convicted upon two colored women. And to tip it off last week he sent a white gentleman from North Carolina to jail for six months for shooting a woman in bootback That's justice with a capital "J" Stand By Cal Stand By Cal This old war cry of "standing by the President fails to bring in results in institutional primaries. Senator McKinley van on this platform out in Illinois this spring only defended. Then Senator Pepper tried it in Pennsylvania with the result that he loss to Congress in the midterm seek headquarters outside of Washington for the next six years. Even a state as far west as Oregon had to harken to the old campaign call of 'standing by Cal.' Certain it is that the wet and dry issues of the war do the harm of saving and losing of senatorial primaries, but the fact reminds that the primary results indicate also a loss of power on the part of president Obidieidge. The country is becoming tired of a president who is not only silent but does so little. A college confers a sheepskin; but Wm. E. King, 1503 N.

Last September a mob of whites in Detroit surrounded the home of Dr. Ossian Sweet. Previously he had been warned to move out of the white section or suffer consequences. Victor Cools In the FORUM will be found a letter from Mr. Victor Cools of Chicago, a letter states that Mr. Cools' stand opposing Negro presidents for Negro colleges is based upon five years of experience. Isn't this a short time in which to find out there is an issue of colored people to head their own institutions? Ought he be willing to put his five years' of experience up against the experience of educators of twenty-five and over? It is men like Mr. Cools who make the cause of Negro education difficult. Because they have been unable to learn, they have had experience that they think the heads of the institutions were wrong and they were right. Very probably after all, the troubled man is not the type you get along with in any concern unless he is running it. He is a good real estate dealer and a poor school teacher. His letter informs that white executives are competent and Negroes are incompetent. So far as Mr. John Hope of Missionary Association is concerned, we can say this for him, that the American Missionary Association doesn't want to let him go. They are so very well satisfied with the work he is doing. Which is the worst—the old hand-kerchief-headed southern mummy and her husband who believed in general education and anti-educated Negro who climbs for white leadership? Firearms The fact that 9,000 pistols and receivers have been sold in Detroit stores in the last year, the arguments used in Washington to support a bill barring pocket firearms from the malls, was passed by the House Wednesday of last week and now goes to the Senate. It declares absolutely unannahable all the firearms being concealed on the person. Advocates of the bill say that the measure will not stop law enforcement from being extent in checking it. "Pocket weapons are the tools of the thug and the scoundrel," they declare. Of the liquor prohibition enforcement act still before it, it would seem that Congress would be sounding the prohibition act. The measure in question wouldn't prevent thugs and highwaymen from securing pistols. It would keep firearms, knives, and others in rural regions where weapons are at present almost unpurchasable. Burglar and the thug will continue to get weapons, knives, and other tools in bootlegger in firearms will do as large and profitable a business as the bootlegger in liquor. The proper way and the easily way to stamp out or legally use these weapons is to place heavy sentence upon those who carry concealed weapons or upon those who use them illegally. Present laws properly protect the armed sofficers are safe.

The Editor. Here's a Man Who After Fire Years Experience Thinks He Knows Something About Education To the Editor: I am taking the liberty of sending you a copy of SCHOOL and SOCIETY with my article entitled "How to be a Negro president for Harvard University." The article should be considered timely on account of the wide interest which has been awakened by the writing of the book by Jesse L. Horsley of Harvard University. You will notice I have taken an opposite stand to that which "Alumnus" has taken. The stand is that Negro presidents were years of experience as "professor" in Negro educational institutions under the presidency of Negroes. I may be specific in saying that my experience was with John Davis of Institute. If "Alumnus" and the others who are advocating Negro presidents in Negro educational institutions knew what was happening behind the curtain in these institutions with Negro executives, they would be able to see the retention of white, competent executives. I am rabidly race-conscious, perhaps too much so for Negro presidents. Allow me to close by quoting the view of an alumnus of Morehouse, your criterion: "The best Negro president they are talking to is a lot of dust." G. Victor Cools, 309 E. 47th street, Chicago, Ill. The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly Sweet Goes Free, A Blow At Segregation BANG I'M SHOT Picture 2. When members of the mob stoned the Sweet home, a shot from one of the windows of the house killed Leon Breiner, white, one of the attackers. A near riot ensued. DAY BY DAY WITH WILLIAM N. JONES Speaking before the Saturday Club of the Afro-American, E. Milton Altfeld, Deputy States Attorney, pointed out that the Jews of Baltimore would not be represented on various governing commission votes, according to party insbels. The practical application of this logic was seen last week in Philadelphia when three Jewish bishops bid for the Negro vote. White they were all of one party they understood that THE NEGRO VOTE WOULD BE BETTER FOR THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN TO INDIVIDUAL APPRAISAL OF THE CANDIDATE. Politicians are noools. They do not waste energy. They work hard, and they think they are not sure they have. There is now little difference between the underlying principles of party alignment. A good Republican or a bad Republican and visa versa. That's all. Either a Democrat or a Republican with a respectful vote if he knows he must do something to get it. A mother holding her baby in her arms this week told this writer that she is not alone. This world just at this time when we are in the midst of a jazz age. Youth, she says, must be unusually strong to pass safely through our streets. Every now and then the pendulum of social restraint swings forward to one side, the other which have set the world moving in jazz time. While in such times there may be more human backwash, THERE ARE AY DEVELOP STRONGER TYPES. There is a real danger to the boy or girl living at this time when we are money wild, jazz crazy and run, rushing in high speed in one daily vocation. But those who pass safely thru it will have gathered super strength for the experience. Natural way, however, is bringing into the world millions of human beings that a few of them are not, and women may seem cruel and heartless. But not only all living groups but all living things develop that way. In this jazz age thousands of boys and girls will be burned to ashes in the fire of the white battles of the saxophone and the whizz of the automobile. BUT THE FITTEST WILL SURVIVE IT. Just you see, boy and girl are the best choice to pass through the struggle. It is not conceivable that the fight against residential segregation by agreement should be decided on the Supreme Court that it lacks jurisdiction and that the individual rights of appellants were not violated. It is also that the decision will form the basis for a renewed bar to a racial residential expansion for a few years at a time. Law will understand the high strung technicalities of the law by which the respected and learned Supreme Court has decided on the decision. EVERYONE HAS DERSTERD WHAT A FINAL DEFEAT IN THIS FIGHT WOULD MEAN TO THEM DEBARBMENTS here and there from blocks where whites are in the majority are of little importance. LAWFUL THE ESTABLISHMENT OF ANY ONE SINGLE SQUARE FOOT OF GROUND ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD WHERE LIVES BECAUSE OF HIS COLOR. In every city groups of whites and sometimes colored people buy sections of an exclusive nature. They have a right to do so. But the seriousness of segregation by agreement lies in the fact that it may drift to the place where any group may have the right to set aside forever soll in which a colored human being may never have the right to live. If this can be done with a square foot of land it can be done with a block, a ward, a city, a state or country. The American Indian was pushed by law almost into extinction. Over in South Africa, the land of all lands where men and women should have unabridged rights, they are now setting of restricted areas and ghettos. The French and the Spanish armies are driving the followers of Krim from their own territory. Every Negro in America should join in this fight in some way. There should be a grim determination to get behind the N. A. A. C. P. and see it thru. THIS IS THE KIND OF THING THAT GROUPS OF MEN HAVE CONSIDERED NOT ONLY IMPORTANT ENOUGH FOR WHICH TO A Lesson For Negro Voters Jazz Age Off The Earth THE Picture 3.

Kelly Miller Says Kelly Miller Says The new Negro lacks the religious conviction of the old leadership and has nothing to take its place. In my view he is destined to lamentable failure until he strikes a deeper spiritual and moral note than which now seems to characterize his mood of mind and way of thinking. He must needs develop the racial instead of the selfish motive. Race must rise above self in mind and imagination. He must not only be law abiding, but alert about the righteous enforcement of righteous law. The New Negro And The Higher Education On May 16th I delivered an address upon this topic before the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity of Chicago, an organization of college students. College stock Definition lies at the basis of all clear thinking. I endeavored to give a working definition of the New Negro as constituent of old Chicago. The distinction was of course limited to the educated Negro with respect to the leadership of the race. The intellectual elite grew up in the city and were the product of schools and colleges which sprung up as a consequence of this great conflict. The type of product is largely determined by the influences which produce it. Older Leadership The older Negro leadership had its matsspring in philanthropy. It revolved upon the pivot of religion. The main purpose was at first to provide a moral direction to should stand in the high place of religious and moral direction of the ignorant and unawakened muses. The motive was purely altruistic. Missionary can only give what he has. The Northern men and women who came South immediately after the war were religious enthusiasts, and the Negro in the great missionary field for religious and evangelistic effort. There was more joy in their heart when one Negro sinner confessed repentance and gave praise and nine learned a good lesson: Religion Dominant The old Negro leader was therefore motivated by religion as the chief means of redeeming his race. The two continents were one and inseparable as furnishing the sphere of endeavor for the Negro convert and graduate. I wish to stop here to commend the work of the missionaries of their wisdom which surpasses that of our short sighted present day policy. The race question can never be solved in America apart from a basis of respect and understanding. Race and color will be a stigma and reproach as long as there remains that great reservoir of religious devotion. So long as blackness remains as a cause of inferior qualities anywhere on the face of the earth, the African stigma where the nose is to be found. The white race boasts of its superiority, and the black race is found it stamps for a certain average of civilization and culture of that other rares and colors. Hypothecated Program The old Negro leader was led to believe that equality with the white race, like the Kingdom of Heaven was necessary to do was to acquire the requisite education and advance in cultural ways, and prejudices would-speedily pass away. This belief the hypochetized his whole program of procedure. The old political leader like the early Christian believers, thought that the great consummation of his generation before many then living should have tasted death. The political leaders believed, with an unshakable faith, that the nation would mediate be enforced. They sought to bring about national legislation to hasten the conclusion by legislative flat. Economic Factor The old Negro leadership believed more in man than in money. Little did it reckon on the economic factor as an element in race solu- Booker T. Washington brought in this essential doctrine but was bitterly compelled in the more ethereal doctrine of equity, justice and brotherhood. But the Hampton-Tuskegee philosophy did not essentially endorse the Negro leadership. It merely added a new factor. But hope and doctrine remained the same. World War. A new order of things, it was thought, was to be ushered in. The Negro felt that the United States had this new order. Democracy, and brotherhood became the watchword. High sounding phrases filled the ear. The lesser breeds of men believed that theel. day had Older Leadership Religion Dominant Economic Factor Picture 5. Despite Judgge Murphy's order that there should be no demonstration after the trial, when one of Sweet's friends heard the verdict, "Not Guilty" he jumped in the air and shouted a loud "hurrah." Rude Awakening But the Negro soon had a rude awakening. He found himself pushed backward, rather than forward on the scale of brotherhood and sisterhood, and amnese the foundations of his former belief. He wished to be reassured of the faith that was in him. It was in the midst of this critical self-examination that the New Negro appeared just what he should be. So far he has no demlitely stated philosophy and no stated program. He has no way to explain why he is impatient to find the means of effecting either. He notes the comparative failure of the older dispensation. Philanthopylus has done much but no success until the end of the beginning. His great objectives have not been realized. Religious earnestness no longer exists, and the soul of the Negro intelligent. A cold and painful religious indifferentium has supplanted the former zeal and enthusiasm. Religion Recedes The first missionaries would be appalled could they revisit the schools and colleges which their faith still remaining. The spiritual and moral leadership of the race has not been recruited for the schools and degree which they hoped, their endeavor would bring to pass. Equality between the races seems to recede as an ideal when they thought they were poor. Poor civil rights then thought to be secure have since slipped back to an amazing degree. Peace and good will which should progress and righteousness now seem as far off as ever. Has the old type of leadership, based upon religion, condescension, fear and or are we merely passing through a darkened phase of the changing moon? New Negro Can we reach the way out by pursuing the same old beaten path or must a new and better way be found and amidst these perplexing queries. Like the old Negro he reiles upon the influence of the higher education. The Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity has a number of intercultural fraternities and sororities, numbers three or four thousand graduate and undergraduate men. We seek an intercultural program. Dr. Locke has suggested what he calls the "creative way out." According to this philosophy, the Negro intelligent work in literature and art. By so doing he will show to the world that he has in him the fine stuff out of which line people are intellectually sterile. He could only repeat: he could not create. This is always the effect of philanthropic guidance, jubilant jupil, good disciples. So far, so good. Creative Genius The New Negro will do well to create. Let him turn his soul wrong side out in music, poetry, art and rhythmic music. He will need a word of caution. Any race which sells its soul damns its soul. Merely to burlesque Negro life and character for the amusement of the world, he needs self-delicitation. The self-respecting Jew, under similar stress of inducement, did rather hang his harp on the willow tree than sing the songs of Zion in a strange land for the sport and mirth of strange Lacks Conviction The New Negro lacks the religious conviction of the old leadership, and has nothing to take its place. He must take a more manageable failure until he strikes a deeper spiritual, and moral note than which now seems to characterize his mood and mind and ways of life. He must needs develop the social instead of the selfish motive. Race must rise above self in mind and spirit. He must be right and righteous in all the ends he aims at. He must not only be law abiding but alert about the righteous enforcement of law. The old Negro was chiefly concerned about himself and his problem. The New Negro must get a world mind and a world conscious Heard and Seen In Baltimore By RALPH MATTHEWS Richard Reese Wittmore, ex convict, gunman, bandit and gangster, was tried in the Criminal Court here for the murder of a penitentiary guard whom he killed in his dash for freedom. Admission was gained to the trial by tickets only. A guy had to be high in underworld society to grab one of these cards of admittance. The trial was held in a beautiful and spacious Some of the most popular crooks in the country were present. A special section of the court was reserved for local bootleggers. Kitty the Kop Killer was a most pleasing hostess and got her picture in the paper every day of the trial. Activated by the publicity he has gained, the bandit's father has declared his intention to run for president. The prisoner's mother told how he always was just a big playful and if he did the penitentiary guard, it was intended for joke. Now that tickets are needed for murder trials it places them in the category with musical concerts, prizesights and burlesque shows. It does not take much imagination the future and see posters like this in the houses: "Today Larry the Bat in Why I Stole the King's Shoalbacks" supported by an excellent cast in rising Rin Tin Can, the police dog. And it may find way into the Circuit Courts with—"His Wife's Lover, or Smith vs Smith suit for divorce." You can't afford to miss this super feature, love, action, sequestration. You can good publicity man can even find a job in the juvenile Court writing stuff like this: "Never before in the history of child crime has any actor the heights of Little Red Riding Hood in I put rat poison in grandmother's Snuff. This juvenile prodigy will carry you from laughter to tears every mother should bear him." With court houses taking on the aspect of movie theatres, politeies will no doubt be complicated with the policemen trying to lend the pennant concession. We should unilogate the seats so spoons们 could be comfortable and install water washed air coolers so we could enjoy ourselves on hot days. It will not be strange to hear of a temperamental murderer canceling his contract; because he doesn't the bailiff who plays opposite him. This all may sound foolish but when you remember that we have almost stopped convicting criminally how you will admit that we might as well arrange the trials so we can at least get some enjoyment out of them.

Garvey Movement It was of curious interest to note the attitude of the Negro intelligence towards the Carvey Move. The Carvey Move opposed opposition condemned Marcus Carvey in terms of the most scatting condemnation, without evincing the slightest interest in the future of the Negro question in the future. There was much of the half concealed conceit that insistence of including the dark continent in our mission to defend our insistence to race equally in America. I have just contributed an article on this subject in the fish magazine. I take the position that the Negro question can never be settled in America until it is settled in Africa.

Another Letter "I offer in addition to letters already published the following letter from Miss Savage written following this unfortunate affair": I am sincerely sorry that my letter to Mrs. Jason has disturbed Now the facts in the matter are as follows: Mrs. Wheaton wrote me in September and asked me to let her have my work for an exhibit. She had heard of me indirectly through the newspapers, and directly through Miss Eva Jessica of Baltimore are crazy about her, and she was sure that I could make lots of money if I would let her exhibit my work. She worked hard to try to go abroad to finish my education. She promised me $300 for expenses and commission to make a bronze tablet for the Plyllis Wheatley school, and one for the Douglas High School. She also asked how much commission I would allow her on sales. I replied that I would be pleased to allow her 20 per cent on all Kindly remember that the $300 were simply to cover the expenses of the trip such as airfare and fares. I protested that that amount would not be worth while going so far for, as I would expect something more expensive at home, or no expenses. She said, "come on down, as our final arrangements are made and you be amply repaid, you will get orders from all the schools." I realize that I should have been more businesslike, but had no idea that. After I returned to New York I received a letter from Mrs. Whitley demanding 25 per cent of my allotted money. I pursued, as I had promised to pay only out of the sales—of which there were none—and not out of the expense money, which had already been expended. Whitley when I left Baltimore and a check from Mr. Pratt for $122.50 which makes $175.20, out of which I have expressed, I am willing to pay 20 per cent of the balance, but I received the inclosed letter from her this morning, so I suppose that that "On this inclosed letter Mrs. Whentley retracted her request for a commission."

G. Madison, of Second Calvary Baptist Church play the practice of the violators recently. The minister was particularly displeased with city teachers who had participated in the play with students of an amateur play given at the Attacks recently, under the direction of Miss Daisy Sykes. "I am opposed to a school teacher going on the stage and throwing a stick at the door while a student runs and picks her up and throws her body across his shoulder, and does not touch it, which was done in the play "Brownskin Pollies," which was given at the Attucks Theatre under the direction of a Norfolk school teacher. "It was good in Play. For what purpose was it given? There was no organization of charity and it meant to serve. Why was the public asked to pay 50 and 75 cents to see such a play given by a school teacher with public school students, certainly no presentation in it. Teachers must come off the ballroom floor, and if they frequent dance halls and other questionable places, system," thundered the minister. "We are training young school children for the stage; parading them before the gaze of public audiences in dress about their knees and bloody used." **Flags Drinking Alcohol.** — an oppose to teachers in wholesome conduct with students. I am opposed to teachers entering their class rooms under a drunken stupor occasioned by a night of alcohol.

Miss Sykys in reply to the pastor's criticism averted that, "No teacher danced or taught any child to dance the 'Charleston,' and that no teacher was unbeaten in the most timid parts in the play, 'A Hat Box Surprise' and "Human Dolls." Both of these numbers were modest and were rendered by a number presented in a church. There were 15 high school girls and boys with whom I have worked and trained on many occasions, commenced training and presented numerous to mention.

One cup cooked rice, one cup of canned pineapple, half a cup of powdered sugar, half a cup of sugar, half a cup of sugar and pineapple, fold in cream, drain the pineapple, and cut into small cubes. Add sugar and pineapple to rice, fold in the whipped cream and pile in sheeret glasses. Serve very cold. **English Monkey** One cup cheese in small pieces.

"Patty, you'll have to bring me another cake of soap, this one's lost almost all its color." Patricia Hamilton put by the blouse she was trying to fashion from two half a dozen went to do her grandmother's bidding. "This violet soap's delightful for about half a cake," the little old lady observed, as Patty placed the unbroken package on the table near her grandmother and smiled while she ripped the skin covering from the soap. One of Grandmother Hamilton's little pet peeves was being given her soap and a fresh cake; one of her pet peeves—she had several. For instance no one realized how hard it was for her to eat the muddy, when she had expressed a particular preference for new peas, but after all Patty was a remarkable child, she gave her almost everything she asked for. No one but Patty knew the daily struggle giving her "almost every taste" of the muddy, which was providing the many cakes of violet soap necessary to supply her grandmother's extravagant taste in her favorite food was present. But whatever sacrifice she was called upon to make, she did it willingly, uncompromisingly, and in her which was Patty's greatest charm. Only one thing over brought forth an argument between these two families. Patty wanted to go to work but Grandmother Hamilton remained obdurate. "A public place" she was a want to argue. "Perish the thought," Patty, I should never be able to face your beloved father in the next world if I consented to such a thing. So Patty struggled on. scrimping, contorting, managing, with the small annuity that was her financial portion. She was the only one almost at the end of her tether. After paying the few small bills she owed and buying only the most meager supplies, there were left in her purse two lions and a dog, which must stretch ever two whole weeks. Fatty had been raised to believe that. There is a destiny that shapes our lives, and it also to leap ever on the sustaining infinity, especially when trouble seemed imminent. So she removed the bowl of cookies, table, table, table, settled the old lady comfortably for an afternoon map, and sat down to read her Bible. She messaged in mind and was idly turning the pages when she paused for no reason at all at it! Kings, thirth chapter. Here she read about the house, the objects in it, in great distress because she had no money to pay her debt, and Elisha asked: "What hast thou in the house, objected to, vessels she had, and they were all filled. There was something about the parable that reminded Fatty of her own life, and she escaped her as she finished the chapter. It was all very well as a story she thought, but what had she in her home absolutely nothing except a peck or of so half-used soap cakes," was her mental answer to her own question, emphasized with a sarcastic glimpse. A Almost mechanically she began to wonder what one could do with a lot of setups and setups of her mood. If one were to follow the prophet one would have to melt it in the first place, so it would be those old jelly cases Mrs. Griggs brought over yesterday. When they were offered Patty wondered what in her mind she should do with them and thanked the donor, rather than run the risk of hurtening her feelings. We were those nice squity ones, too. How they'd look filled with the liquid green of her melted violet soap. Almost before she realized it was making plants. She thought of the exception with frosy, poorly kept hair and rough, plimply complexions. Only yesterday Gertie Garver, the little retreated about the insurance, hair, insisting she must have a secret way to take care of it and begging her to sell it for money, course Patty had merely dressed at her, but—that was yesterday. The very next day Patty appeared at the insurance office and pushed under the toastenled Gertie a little marvel. he decided to let you in on my secret," she told Gertie, "but you'll have to come over on your afternoon off and to leave you how you use it." I'll— will be charged "it."

Home Education THE INFLUENCE OF EXAMPLE PAULINE HERR THOMAS ♦ I admit that dar setting a patch is in uninteresting task. The neighbor whose one wild is in a boy ten years of age. The boys' father is a saluted man and his family well- to-do. The mother has an orderly, tidy house, does all her own work and always looks, and is well dress. Her duties comprise the care of our room apartment and her family. ♦ The boy, Tom, is a very lovable little fellow. He comes to my door to collect papers, which he sells by way of earning spending money, going to the movies being one of his favorite pastimes. He seems to have good taste about them; I mei him yesterday on his way to see "Penrod and Sam". I commanded this little money making schmack his and save every pocket. He gives evidence of the right order: he always removes his cap and wipes his shoes as he comes in and thanks me repeatedly as he leaves. He is always impressed also by his many bearing. There is just one thing however, and the child himself is really not to blame, which disresses me whenever I look at him. Either Tom's stockings woefully need darning, there is a rent in his cont. and the child is not in his other evidence of the lack of personal neatness is painfully evident. Now, if we were to search for the cause of this unseasonal condition, we should undoubtedly find it in Mothers' laxity in keeping the family work-basket in use. Although the shoe laces or the repurpose the shoe laces or avoid the rent, though he may even have been disciplined in such untidiness without effect, we know that the whole trouble lies in lack of example where mother's mending is in consequence of the mending, or of mending affected, only the adults of the family. it would be a matter of less concern but the influence which it is having upon that growing son is cause for deep regret. We may hope that he will outgrow that influence; he is such a child that we must sure he will, but why foster a trait that must be outgrown? My appeal is to the mothers who say — and how often we hear it "I do despise mending; darning soaks is such an aimless task." Let such a mother think of her little "Tom" or "Mary" who perhaps will not readily outgrow such an influence. 1 teaspoon butter A few sprigs of salt From A Woman's Viewpoint In this "jazz" age when everyone teresting to know how many of us Dr. Henry Van Dyke.

Of absurdity to just because some women like their which is purely and simply a matter of course, if it were true that moral hair, it would satisfactorily explain toriously weak in the masculine sex such foolish deductions as those heard all the too often in reference to no out of the category of morals as beader. And young folks listen with their wanting, they decide to come from us. So we lose the chance to need—wise counsel and judicious guilt and lost our fight. In this "jazz" age when everything serious is taboo, it might be interesting to know how many of us read "The Guide Post" conducted by Dr. Henry Van Dyke. It can be read in two minutes, but very often those two minutes will yield food for helpful thought for two hours. Recently, Dr. Van Dyke stressed the fact that while "many people see life and their relationship to God and man from a totally non-mourn point of view," others mistakenly make moral judgments of things don't fall in that category at all. In the estimation of those sincere but illogical people, we compartment affair and everything is either whole right or wholly wrong. Now, the truth is that many things in life are not matters of right or wrong, out of preference, of good taste, of custom; and it does no lasting good to make moral issues where there are none. Unless this fact is more generally recognized and accepted we shall lose much of our influence with our youth. The keen awareness clear-sighted young people of to-day are investigated themselves. They no longer swallow whole-sale ready-made beliefs and opinions. They ask why, and demand to be "shown." And they draw their own conclusions. All this is very much to be deed, provided there can also be had intelligent, judicious guidance and advice from older people whenever needed. Our influence over the young depends wholly upon their confidence in us, and their confidence in us is in direct proportion to honest, open-minded way we ourselves face in the lives of life. When we confuse issues and side-step truths and pervert facts, we need not get the ear and respect of those who are now doing their own think- Down in Kentucky a short while ago, a youth minister with more zeal than common sense in a sermon criticized women for hobbling their hair, declaring that the world is in a sad way because of that fact. In cidentally, he got his face soundly shapped by an indignant young woman girl who resented his criticisms. While we demeaned her for which, by the way, she got thirty days—we sympathize heartily It is the height of absurdity to declare the world is in a sad way just because some women like their hair short instead of long, a thing which is purely and simply a matter of preference and not of morals. Of course, if it were true that morals depend upon the length of one's hair, it would satisfactorily explain why men have always been so notorious about it. However, much as we would like to, we cannot furnish the masculine sex with this allib. Such foolish deductions as those made by the Kentucky parson are heard all too often in reference to many other things, such as out of the category of morals as biblical hair, lipsticks, paint and powder. And young folks listen with their tongues in their cheeks and go on their own sweet way. Having weighed us in the balance and found us wanting, they decide to come to their own conclusions without help from us. So we lose the chance to give them what they so often surely need—wise counsel and judicious guidance. We have made the wrong attack and lost our fight. It there is anything more humiliating to a girl than blushing when she shouldn't, it's not blushing when she should. History May 24, 1902—Grand United Order of Nazarites celebrated their 48th Annual Passover at their Tabernacle, Calvary street, near Center. The annual sermon was prescheduled by the Rev. Church. - I admit that darning a sock or setting a patch is in itself a rather uninteresting task, but, brightened with thoughts of the effect it may have upon the character of the boy or girl who wears the garment, it becomes a task glorified by many. It becomes enough to beautify our homestead labors thus; it will add both joy and worth to our motherhood. How To Keep Baby Quiet In Church By M. E. Lobbitt A quiet hour at church on Sunday morning is of inestimable value to the housewife. Many times the children are as fun as a child, and that a child will be glad to amuse himself for an hour if given something new and interesting. Take along a small book (there's something fascinating about an old envelope), an empty stamp book, a small match-box (empty of course). Any mother can remember that the mother hasn't seen those particular things beforehand. To pull some attractive little lap toy out of your pocketbook, you can put it in the box. This supplies to active youngsters, mostly. When a child is six or over he can be expected to listen to the service and if mother lets it out, will not only enjoy that, but feel that he has a part, too, I have seen my own children spend the happiest sort of hour just putting on fostering and removing it from the room, by all this that you should take your babies to church to amuse them. Certainly not, but don't stay away from church because you can help him along and during these active little ages (for the sake of quietude) let him have a little amusement. By the time he has a habit and you'll be surprised to hear him repeat many fine things he has learned during service.—E. B. C. It doesn't take even a very young child long to learn that there are times when he should be quiet and such training is worth while. Mme. Grayson BEAUTY PARLOR 1828 PENNA.

Keats knew that the cultivation of beauty is not vanity, but that it is a duty which woman owes not only to herself but to the society she graces. Some one has said, "That it is the duty of women to be more beautiful than God has made them when we come into contact with those who have neglected the duty of cultivating the clear, sparkling eye the clean, unblemished skin, fragrant breath, lustrous hair, animated vigor and vital endurance that are so symbolical of good health. The spiritual or angelic delicate type has passed into history; in this busy modern life we are admiring and appreciating those women who are wholesome, active, healthy creatures that will lead men to know that how to live is important. In a fellow-fisherman, golfer, in fact a creature of the great out-of-doors, whose body is agile, vigorous and whose mind is keen, active, on the alert, sharpened for the more important issues of life, that are to be solved together for the good of both. More and more the impression is given that the impression that "Beauty is more than skin deep"; it is bone deep, and above all it is doubtless gland deep. A very eminent physician says, "Direless play a most important part in controlling growth and contour and form; the mental, physical, moral characteristics of the individual." The thyroid gland has a potent influence upon the nutrition of the skin, and that many of the skin detects, such as liver spots, etc., are due to the inactivity of the glands. Upon their use being or good condition depends on the voice, feminine charm and the myriad of attributes that distinguish and define the femininity of woman. Therefore, it is very essential that each of us have a thorough examination by a good physician twice a year; many trivial matters can be corrected if this policy is pursued and many a dangerous and damaging physical condition prevented. REBECCA—When the hair grows very thin at the temples and on top of the head, use a transformation while you wear a wig. The wig is no longer of the wigger appearance, rather attractive, and when properly adjustable, are not discernable, only by the expert hairdresser.

Church Notices Sunday School Lesson A. B. 138 Annual Session of Presbyterian Body In Session Here AFRICAN MISSIONS TO GET HEARING Expect Action On Resolution Held Over From Last Year Rev. M. B. Wills, pastor of Fulton Baptist Church, who died after an operation for the removal of his tonsils. "Conquer the world for Christ," is the slogan of the African M. E. Church Missionary Department which reported a male over 490,000, assisted one capended during the war, and included West and South Africa, South America and the West Indies. As a the thing to have high ideals and noble aspirations, but its another thing, one tar more praised the missionary program to the pocket book. The late Bishop Daniel A. Payne not only dedicated to serve his church in Africa but declined to aid the African missionary program in any way until he said, he found it possible to travel all over the United States, the work here up in the standstaff. Successes of Bishop Payne ought seriously consider the curtailment and even abolition of the entire missionary program in South America, the work recently undertaken in the West Indies, Mexico and South America has been adequately taken care of. At present the missionary department, with its $100,000 budget is scattering a deficit over two conti- nents. The funds available for this work are too small to fund Tanzania adequately to develop the church in the West Indies and South America. The result is that missionaries to Africa are poorly paid, half-servi- sed and to a large extent, ineffective. Other departmentals for weather- able can spend in one field, Liberia, for example, three-fourths of what the A. M. E. Church has spent on all its missionary en- gages. Instead of the present denomina- tional rivalry common sense and good judgment would seem to be missing, the foreign men among them, in Liberia, for example, the A. M. E. Church, the M. E. Church, the missionary Church, the Lutheran church are competing with schools and churches. Writing in the current issue of the C.I.E., W. E. B. Budds, editor of a program that is worthy of serious consideration. What is needed in West Africa is first, a definition of the missionary y field. The African Methodist Church, the largest church to divide on the field: one of them working in Liberia; one on the field: Const. one in Nigeria. Each of them ought to spend at least $500,000 a year in work, consisting of education, industry and social solidity, and carried on by educated people of good character who are prepared to travel and travel expenses; and who are allowed six months' rest at home with salary every three years. Anything less than this program is nonsense and waste. J, W, E, BOWEN RETIRES FROM GAMMON SEM.

PRESIDENT SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON Sunday, May 30m: JACOB AT BETH FL. Genesis, 27, and 28. And he said, I will certainly return unto the according to the time of life and to Sarah, thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard it in the tent-door which was behind him. Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age, and it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women. Therefore, Sarah laughed in herself, saying, After I am waxed old, shall I have pleasure my lord being bald? And the Lord said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I have a surety bear a child, which am old? Is anything too hard for the Lord? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son. I learned Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid. And he said, And the men rose up from thence and looked toward Sodom; and Abraham went with them to bring them to the city, and he hid from Abraham that thing which I do seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be commanded. For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall be commanded to judge and judgment; that the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him. The Lord said, Because of the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their shin is very grevious, I will go down now, and see them, and because their cry of it, which is come unto us, and if not, I will know.

HIGHT—Fellowship Reception in honor of Big Strangers and Visitors cordially Invited to attend the services to supply your spiritual needs. W. A. English Pastor This text is the climax in this remarkable epistle addressed to the ancient church at Corinth. Viewed from a point of literary excellence, it is entitled to pre-eminence among the master pieces for which the Apostle was noted. In the beauty of its style, in the finish of its rhetorical periods, in the precision of its logical conclusions and in the perfection of its election, it unsurpassed the role of human literature. In the beauty of its literature, it surpassed the role of a theological document, it is both doctrinal and ethical. It is the taproot of the Christian system. It is the perfection of that religion of which the Apostle himself was among its chiefest exponents. The paramount word of the text is Charity. Everything in the chapter rotates around it. Every virtue is made to bow in submission to it. It is the spiritual center from which light, liberty and benevolence originate. In the Apostle's personification of it, he clothes it in such garments of marvelous beauty and magnificence, as to gender it, not only in terms of its beauty, but in terms of its property. Charity as used in the text is not almusgiving. It is not a distribution of one's property to assist the poor or to relieve the distressed, or to feed the hungry. If any were inclined to limit its meaning to almusgiving, the Apostle in his contention for the maintenance of its purity, removes completely this conviction. By one master stroke, he elevates the virtue to such a lofty place in the realms of the spiritual and the transcendental, as to render its possession not only unpurchasable by gold, but unobtainable by any human achievement or endeavor as such. Long, says the Apostle, and is kind, i. e. A man with charity is patient and sympathetic, as a mother would be in dealing with her infant. Charity behead all things. The man with charity is patient under persecution, confidently relying on the promise of God to set him right if not in this world (for it often happens that good men die with blackened reputations) in the next world, in the judgment where all wrongs will be adjusted. Charity hope all things. Cleverful under the most strict conditions, always hoping for the best. Charity believe all things that are good for you, and that is why others succeed in their undertaking. Some people not only become uncasy, but actually grow angry at the success of others. Charity is not putured up, and is opposed to conceit and vanity, unbecoming and indecent conduct. In this connection it is difficult to determine who are Christians; if decision is to be based upon the conduct of church members. Charity is indispensable to the practice of Christian ethics. I am by this that upright conduct, one with the other, would be impossible without it. Charity is the motive which underlies true benevolence. Without it there would be no true patriotism, no genuine herosism. This world would be a dark and dismal abode, whose inhabitants would be swayed by the baser passions of their unregenerate natures. Charity, as Love, sent the Son of God to die upon the cross; inspired the missionaries to carry the Gospel to the heathen; sent John Stewart to the missionaries to the American Indians; influenced Lott Carey, Melville H. Cox and others of the graves in Liberia; made William Taylor the Apostle to South America, and a welcome guest in the hamlets of the herdiness in West Africa. And now abideeth faith, hope, charity, but the greatest of these is charity. The foundation upon which this structure rests is immortality, earth, shining in the conduct of life, she manifests herself on earth, shining in the conduct of life, she manifests herself on the character of God, as one of His chief attributes—for God is Love. The operation of her sister virtues, faith and hope, are confined to earth, i.e. there will be no more exercise for faith or hope after death, earth, i.e. there will be no more solomun hour of death, when neither friends nor relatives, nor any earthly friend, what our position in life may be, how popular, or how wise or how rich—death levels all distinctions and six feet of earth make us all of one size, for all flesh is a grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of earth.
