The fund was launched during an address by the secretary of the association, James Weldon Johnson, of New York, ex-U. S. Consul to Nicaragua and Venezuela, writer and editor of compilations of Negro poetry
"What American Negroes need and what we propose to begin raising now," declared Mr. Johnson, as a fund of one million dollars to distranchise. Crowd distranchise, these being the last vestiges of slavery.
Mass Power
"Such a fund will be a demonstration of the mass power which the Negro intends to use and will serve notice upon the country of the Negro, further informing every fundamental right which should be his in common with other Americans.
"It is possible and feasible for American Negroes to raise this millon of money, because the money and can give. The demonstration was recently given in the quick raising of a Legal Defense Fund of more than $70,000.

WANAMAKER'S PASTOR ELECTED LINCOLN HEAD
PHILADELPHIA—The Rev. Wm. B. Graway, pastor of the Bethany Presbyterian Church, John Wannmaker's church, was elected by the Board of Trustees, president of Lincoln University, Pa., last week.
The Rev. Mr. Greenway is a native of Tennessee and a graduate of Union Theological Seminary and Princeton.
Trustees of Lincoln who are all white disregarded requests of the alumni of the institution to place a colored member on the trustee board or to place one or two colored members on the faculty.
The trustees in their session also disregarded requests of the alumni that acting president Walter Wright he made permanent to the university voted against him, saying he was too friendly with colored people.
The post has been vagant for two years, during which time trustees have elected three presidents, each of whom resigned because of alumni offenses.
The new president was born in Broylesville, Tenn. He is 50 years old and his church here is at 52nd and Spruce streets. Altho he has some experience at the North he is neither an eitherner and the trustees seek to prove that the southern white man is still the best friend to the Negro and knows him better than anyone else.
Trustees so far have kept their position so far. They do not wish the leak to open until Greenway has accepted for fear the alumni may change his mind.

Clifford Sues N
For Fifty Tho
PITTSBURGH, PA. (P.N.S.)—In an interview with J. Williams Clifford, former Lieutenant in the famous Buffalo Regiment and now a U.S. government investigator, concerning an article appearing in a recent number of The New York Tattler, under the caption, "Jay" Clifford Brings Divorce Action against His Wife, Naming Proponent Harlem.
He stated that there was not one word of truth in the article, that it did a great injustice to his wife and family, and that he was not only bringing a damage suit for $50,000 against the spurious publication, but he hoped to land the writer of the article in fail for malicious and criminal libel.
Clifford happened to be in Pittsburgh on a special investigation for the Government when the article was brought to his attention and says he was never more surprised and shoked in his life. Mr. Clifford said:
"There has never been the slightest misunderstanding or estrangement in my married life since its beginning. I married a lovely girl whose life before and after her marriage has been clean and honorable. That some wicked person would attempt to cast aspersions on her high moral character by writing and publishing such a despicable, contemptible and criminal article. I shall do everything in my power to put them behind the bars. They are a menace to society—the fall is the place for them."
1.1. Clifford and his charming wife are prominent in Eastern Social Circles. Clifford has held a number of responsible positions in the Bureau of Internal Revenues. Mrs. Clifford is a school teacher in the Washington Public School. They have a little daughter, 2½ years old.

GIRL SPELLER

WASHINGTON. — A nation-wide spelling bee contest, sponsored by representative newspapers of 25 cities, and in which 25 girls and boys from all parts of the United States took part, was recently held in this city at the National Museum auditorium.
Sponsored by the Telegram Gazette, of Worcester, Mass., Sarah Louise Van Allen was the only colored child in the contest.
She drew the applause of the vast audience by outlasting all but the prize winners after she had correctly spelled "psychological." At her turn on the next round, however, she failed on the word "riskless."
MOST NEGROES PER SQ. MILE IN D. C.
WASHINGTON.—In 1920 the population of the United States averaged 35.5 inhabitants per square mile of the country. The Negro population averaged 3.5 persons for each of the 2,973,774 square miles that constitutes the total land area. Leading all other areas was the District of Columbia with a colored population of 1,832.7 persons per square mile, followed by those which contain ten or more colored inhabitants per square mile: South Carolina, 28.3; Maryland, 24.8; Georgia, 20.5; Mississippi, 20.4; North Carolina, 16.7; Delaware and Louisiana, 15.4, and Tennessee, 10.8. In the northern states, New Jersey ranked as the colored population with an average of 15.6 persons per square mile, followed by Pennsylvania, with 6.3; Ohio, with 5.2; Florida, with 4.2; Missouri, with 2.8 colored inhabitant per square mile. Since 1920, however, decreases in the South and increases in the North have followed as a result of the increased population of Pennsylvania has now joined New Jersey and that these are the only northern states in which there are ten or more inhabitants per square mile of land area.
D. C. BATH BEACHES ARE HELD UP
WASHINGTON. D. C.-The Nation's Capitol-white and black alike will swatter again this summer with a new initiative. "The House committee on appropriations refused to include in the second deficiency appropriation bill for the fiscal year 2015, a $25 million for the construction of two artificial bathing beaches or pools, as authorized by the Zihiman bill, which was approved by the House in 2014, the last, on the ground that the definite location of pools has not been determined, nor has the plan been agreed upon whether to erect two large or several smaller pools."
This Zihman bill contained a provision that one of these two artificial persons, the captain, and the other by colored persons. It was proposed to construct the one for white persons in Potomac Park, the one for the captain, and the one for colored persons in Anacostia Park, an out of the way location. Both of these provisions made the construction of the two pools collectionsable to colored people.

First Time Any Child Ever Hit Me Says Daniel Freeman
WASHINGTON, D.C., Afro Bureau—A father, Danniel Freeman, 49 years old, was exonerated last Wednesday by a coroner's jury for the killing of his son, Raymond Freeman, 25 yrs. old. He was represented by Attorney Armond W. Scott. The coroner's jury found that the father inflicted the stab wounds, from
According to witnesses, the two boys engaged in an altercation on the 265 Seventeenth street, southeast, last Sunday. The two boys came to the house in a drunken state, and they were attacked by Freddie Freeman, 117 Sixteenth street, southeast, testified. Their father invited their mother to join them in the fight, and two boys refused to leave the house.
Raymond struck the father, knocking him down. The father, so up, ran. Raymond got out of the clutch, grabbed a large lamp and struck his father with it, knocking the old man unconscious and cutting his head. When the father was dead, Raymond grabbed a knife and stabbed both boys. Raymond died Tuesday in the Gallinger Hospital. The doctor, who testified at the inquest, included Detective Sergeant Ira E. Keck, who investigated the killing; Jerome Taylor, the southeastern district attorney; Dumore, 1845 Capital street, southeast; Mrs. Beatrice Freeman and her husband, Freddie Freeman, and Prince Albert Branham, Attorney Scott did not put down the fire. Daniel Freeman is the father of fourteen children, twelve of whom are living. It was the first time in his career that he attempted to strike him.

MRS. DUDLEY FILES ANOTHER SUIT IN COURT
Alleges Theatre Magnate
Owes $600G On Promis
sory Note
WASHINGTON, D. C. Another episode in the sensational Dudley divorce proceedings was added last Tuesday when Mrs. Desdemona B. Dudley, of 1219 Sixth St., northwest, filed suit against her estranged husband, Sherman H. Dudley, nationally known theatrical magnate, business man and sportsman of 1223 Seventh street, northwest, to collect a note.
Mrs. Dudley declares that on March 30, 1923, made, executed and delivered to her a promissory note, payable to the order of Desdemona W. Barrett her maiden name. The amount of this note, she asserts, is $5,000, and bears interest from date until paid at the rate of $6 per cent a year.
This note, Mrs. Dudley declares, is overdue and wholly impaired. She is the ladder, she says. She is not the ladder, she says. She is not the interest. The note, she says, becomes due three months after date.
S. H. Dudley filed suit against his wife for the charge of charging that she had misappropriated herself with George Davis, a police man. Mrs. Dudley, in her answer, denied his charges and asked the court to charge her husband with drunkenness, cruelty and desertion. The case is now pending in the District Court.
In his complaint Dudley named George Davis, a policeman, as co-respondent and alleged 10 different cases of misconduct by the couple. He also accused her of stealing their $27,000 home and his wife. Mrs. Dudley rose from ticket to secretary and finally to wife of the theatre magnate. She also alleged his home was around $2 a day, that his property holding were valued at $6,000. Ordinary home marketing was not allowed, and he was weekly to run their house. She alleged Dudley had a bad temperance and has a $100 a week whisky bill. He also has a $100 a week interest and his several times gagged him.
Minnie Johnson, maid in the Dear
home, signed an unannounced at the
ment for the cop, cleaned it up and

she is asking $500 a month
alimony. She says she made her bus

lowances, for what may be his shortcomings or his lapses. But he does demand equality of treatment. Ignorant white men have rights; poverty stakes for black Americans have certain rights; and these rights belong to them regardless of their condition. We intend to see that unhappily circumstanced black Americans have the same guarantees and opportunity as unhappily circumstanced white Americans.
Jim Crow
"We shall, moreover, use this power to smash the practices which allow the most unkempt white persons to travel under first class conditions while the nearest colored person must travel Jim Crow; that allow the most ignorant white citizens to vote and bar the most intelligent black citizens with crime; that charge with crime to burden the court of law and a black one to be burned by a mob at the stake."
Representative L. C. Dyer, of Missouri, scored Republican senators especially those on the Judiciary Committee, who failed to support the McHenry-Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. He also failed to support Senator Borah, Idaho; Norris, Nebraska; Means, Colorado; Goff, West Virginia; Harreld, Oklahoma; Gillett Massachusetts. No one appeared at the hearing in opposition to the bill Notwithstanding this, the Judiciary Committee voted on the Senate, not only has failure to it but has also voted of its members to favorably report this bill to the Senate.
Blames Committee
"Since the Judiciary Committee of the Senate has had this legislation directly before them, as stated above, and as they have had a hearing upon it and then refused to report it to the Senate, it is apparent to everyone that the fault lies entirely with the Senate, and that it would not be insulting to those who are especially urging this legislation to keep repeatedly passing it in the House. A number of the Senators who recently have failed of renomination had my opposition. The chief responsibility and the chief failure to renominate the judiciary is concerned, lies with the Judiciary Committee of the Senate."
Wailing Urges Vote for Friends Not Party
William English Walling, writer and lecturer, declared that the Negro must book for salvation elsewhere. Mr. Walling urged that Negroes throughout the United States vote independently of established political parties. "As a persecuted minority the colored people must vote for their friends absolutely regardless of parity that is exactly what they are doing in every Northern State. When there is no friend to be voted for and no enemy to be voted against, a colored citizen may vote for his 'party.' But even then the knows only the only one State. In the邻居住 State he knows very well that that same party may be in the hands of the Klux Klux. And he doesn't know who will control 'his' party in the next election." Mrs. Hunton Proussis Alderman 0009 Woman
Mrs. Addie W. Hunton, of Brooklyn, N. Y., president of the Empire State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, asserted upwards of 100,000 colored women throughout the country were organized to protect the citizenship and civil rights of the Negro in America and would enthusiastically support the campaign for justice equality.

VOODOO WOMAN
FOUR FEET TALL
SENT TO JAIL
MEMBERS FEARED HER
HYPNETIC POWER
CAMDEN, N. J. (ANP)—No matter what kind of a religious faith or cult is started by someone, there are followers.
Proof of this was received in the office of Justice of the Peace John O'Neill, on Friday, when the "high priestess," from whom the victims testified unmerciful torture, was given six months in jail and finel $100 on a charge of cruelty to children.
The high priestess, Yancy Cunningham, known to the residents of Lawnside, Canden county, as "The Witch."
The woman, who is deformed, and only four feet tall, is "High Priestess of the Church of the Black Chosen" people of the Gospel Kingdom." It was alleged that practices bordering on yodhomism are part of the rites.
Many of the witnesses were afraid of the woman. None would look at her while they gave testimony against her. The witnesses said they knew the woman had children in her house and that she would them by fastening them to the floor with screws and ropes and sometimes with dog collars. This equipment was exhibited in court.
The woman's practice of abusing children first came to light when Mrs. Minnie Bailey, a colored investigator for the New York Society for the Protection of Cruelty to Children, made inquiries.
Two of the children, William Costly, 15, and his sister, Lillian, 14, told an amazing tale.
The boy and his sister exhibited wells on their backs, each with a knife. He described the torture to which he and his sister were obliged to submit.
He said he was first stripped of all his clothing and ropes tied around his neck. The end of the rope was then fastened to the floor by an eyebolt. Sometimes the man who brought them, but more often the woman, beat him until he was unconscious.
The girl's story was not less revolting. She said she was compelled to disrobe. Her arms and legs were then tied with ropes and fastened to the wall. She was placed around her neck and then she, too, was beaten, not with a stick, but with a strap, on one end of which was a buckle. The woman, when she whipped her, the girl said, always used the buckle end. She was the church of which the woman is head, were taken to court Friday much against their will. They said "the woman is a witch and will place a spell over us if we testify against her." Two policemen who went for the witnesses, assured them there was nothing to fear. The testimony were: Mary Bell, Hester Still, Mary Satter, Marion Johnson and Samuel Johnson.

NEW PLAY TRIED
Southern Planter Of Legree

OBJECTS TO GRANDSON COURTING COLORED GIRL Drama Is Referred To As A "White Cargo" With Plantation Setting
NEW YORK—"Black Velvet"
Frank Keenan's new play, is termed *n* "White Cargo" in an old Southern plantation setting; it is generally better that the place will have to be revamped before it will succeed.
The story unfolded by the plot is one of the family plantation's family bride and secrecy day is a great puzzle to the Northern business man. A lumber deal is on, and the old general thinks solitude of having his right hand man is his only hope. A Northern labor man, a murder or two seems to be all in the Southern day's work, but when the old man hears that his grandson has had an affair with a maidress and local Lulu pelle, his sense of honor is aroused.
Northerners Disagrees
The old southerner declares that his grandson is not fit to marry a Northern girl, and he states that amazing fact to the young matriarch is that her father can see no harm in the little belle complex, and says he will allow his daughter to marry the erring grandmother. Left alone the Southerner can be neglected, and takes out his truity rules and sends for his grandson. Before the naughty young man appears the old general drops dead in his sleep, and enters and relieves his sister of some sentiment about "Massas Gone to Heaven."

Firecrackers should be kept out of the reach of children, and all other fireworks that must be lighted with matches. There are numberless displays that may be shown after dark, but cool heads are needed to control them. We have no desire to be a killjoy, but an ounce of fireworks may prevent may provoke. An FPW will be displays under the supervision of an expert at one or two public places on Monday. There the little ones may see more than the average person may provide; and with a greater degree of safety.
Aint It The Truth
atrons are tired of the same songs sung in theatres at their attractiveness.
The same unfunny "bits" are rehashed week after week in their entertainment value in the repetition?
Its charged colored patrons are as high, as higher, than those charged in houses play. And that the colored patron is served a very long Broadway producers, company managers, women of various shapes and sizes, and to we are becoming "fed up" on the bedroom to be risque, and only result in being absolute presentation?
Aren't
aired producer and performer "getting away" a unfair advantage of people who must go Sesame out of their hard earned money by a same degree that WHITTEMORE, JESSICA, augers almost to a man realizing the situation are inclined to deal fairly with their patrons, can get, in order that they may keep their indent that they will pay any sums to get the inductions? They defeated the thoughtless per the line of least resistance, and who is co-operative, studying, and admiring, more alert, and intelligent performers, is backing the OLD ACES off the boards with entertainment. The days of the old fashion the newspapers with cheap correspondence are slowly going the way of the DODO? T acts on the streets' finding it increasingly a诺 it in? There more opportunities for Negro waudeville than there ever was? AM J RIC
THAT patrons are tired of the same songs sung in theatres long after they have lost their attractiveness.
THAT the same unfunny "bits" are rehashed week after week, losing all of their entertainment value in the repetition.
THAT prices charged colored patrons are as high, and sometimes proportionately higher, than those charged in houses playing to white theatruegoes. And that the colored patron is served a very inferior brand of amusement.
THAT aping Broadway producers, company managers are bringing undressed women of various shapes and sizes, and telling us it is ART? That we are becoming "fed up" on the bedroom situations that are intended to be risque, and only result in being absolutely filthy from their poor presentation?
Aren't
THE colored producer and performer "getting away with murder" and taking an unfair advantage of people who must go SOMEWHERE, only allowing the company actors who are bandits in the same degree that WHITTEMORE, JESSIE JAMES, or GERALD CHAPMAN ever were?
THE managers almost to a man realizing the situation, and though most of them are inclined to deal fairly with their patrons, obliged to take what they can get, in order that they may keep their houses open?
The facts evident that they will pay any sums to get the few decent and industrious. They deflected the thoughtless performers who lazily follow the orders of the company actors to drift along COPYING rather than studying and advancing.
THE younger, more alert and intelligent performers, now appearing in our theatres, backstopping the OLD ACES off the boards with their superiors, who flooded the newspapers with cheap correspondence and the streets full of hot air, slowly going the way of the DODO? The performers who "do their acts on the streets" finding it increasingly difficult to find audience in drama, pictures and yaudville than their own World's M. J. RIGHT?

The same thing holds good in the reproduction of pictures on these pages.

Our picture is their picture.

At the end of the first paragraph Daugherty has mentioned one of the greatest handicaps that the Negro artist has suffered; the promiscuous praise that could ALWAYS BE BOUGHT. Subconsciously the effect of his name in print has made artists feel that they did not need to study, and hence they stagnated and have been pushed overboard by the intelligent men and women. In the second paragraph we grant the writer the right to his own mode of procedure, but our policy has been to be in business for ALL PERFORMERS EVERYWHERE. Our purpose is to help those who are at the bottom of the ladder. It is an every writer's procession after it has started, but to our mind there is more need of a boost for the man who is struggling, than yelling hurrah for the man or woman who has arrived.

WHITMAN SISTERS
A breezy, snappy bundle of entertainment was opened by the Whitman Sisters on Monday afternoon. "The prompt 'Through,' a splendid title, for that's what the youngsters and the oldsters do. It is a delight to see artists work so hard and to see them enjoyment out of that they do."
The opening chorus began with some splendid singing and some rompin' dancing that brought a demand for a repeat by the band. The chorus then moved the house was thoroughly warmed up, and from thence to the finale the company met them and the audience was theirs. There is such a plenitude of talent that it is impossible to miss the difficulty. Alice is there possessing the same charm and ability to step, "right out this world." Hert Whitman has assigned herself but little this time, but does that little thoroughly and artfully. Mattie Dorsey shows that she retains her vocal ability in two numbers sooled that earned her deserved recognition from the patron. She does that like an old muster, and was obliged to repeat one of the nearest dances seen here this season. Hamilton and Hamilton do a speciality, and Hamilton plays the bay to Airship's fiddle. An the comedy depart-
Mrs. Hamilton is likeable and capable. The artist sang "Remember" and "Dilah" in a manner which made an impression on the house, and they didn't sit on their hands when the time came for expressing their pleasure. Miss Carla ed a Charleston that clicked. W. B. Johnson introduced Princess Wee Wee and otherwise distinguished
Charley Jones let his light shine in a duct dance with Bert Whitman which for excellence of execution was, "The poetry of motion." To her other accomplishments, the dancing we did, Whitman added the "Mess Around the new dancing glorified by Tom Delauney in his "Louisiana Mess Around." Desire her height. Princess Wee Wee DID IT. Little Albert Palmer, Shine Bones, and Franklin kicks in the same dance. Albert's knee drops and Russian dancing and the clever facial control of his little associate were the marvels of the afternoon. Briefly the Whitmans have constructed a clean, sparkling, surrounds them, performs, portrays, executes their assignments, and succeeded in making entertainment that is worth going miles to see. Go up there this week and see if I am correct. James Rogers and Billy Adams also valued performance by the house.
The ladies of the ensemble, as the programs say, are: Katie, Ethel, Harriett, Rose, Bobbie and Catherine. They are an asset to the company. The members of the executive team are: Allen Brown, cornet; Ernest Michaels, clarinet; Sterling Payne, saxophone; Leslie Tole, drummer.
REGENT
"ROLL ON"
With a music written by themselves entitled, "Roll On" Brown and Do Mont returned to the city for the first time since the inauguration. The buyers considered the offering a mighty entertaining one on Monday night.
A glance at the list of principals reminds one of meeting long lost relatives.
The Isakla Four, who proved the test and were contest winners here last winter, have signed up with the company and did their splendid bit toward making the musical "roll on."
The audience couldn't get enough of the ambiguing to repeat and re-repeat.
Miss Lilyn Brown, possessing all of her artistry did several characters; a male impersonation going like a world warrior. Her splendid voice also added to the general high tone of the evening.
"Slim" Jones, one of Baltimore's own comies, does one end of the comedy and other end of the comedy and Stokes. The pair won them and held them Monday. It is Jones' first appearance in three years, and his friends were mighty glad to see him. His sojourn out in the world has made him his ability to deliver in the least bit. Clifton and Bathe, a male double, conquered the house from their entrance on the boys' house. Their group exceeding favor on Monday night, and will make many more friends before the engagement terminates. Miss Stokes looks as good as she acts and also the women. We went fit into the picture nicely in a dandy fair ground setting. Their work on a trapeze was deservedly applauded, and added a touch of joy. The most refreshing, the funniest Tunisal is pianist-director for the company.
The construction of the book is logical, the music tuneful and well written. The novelty of having a score which every phonogram on the book is decidedly in Brown and DeMonty's favor. The staging and the costumes are fresh and arpropriate. "Roll On!" is destined to be rolling around the country. "LET THIS OPPORTUNITY TO SEE SOMETHING NEW, PASS YOU BY." The choristers are Gladys Gregory, Lucie Bassie, Billie Henderson, May Murray, Gladys Spriggs, Phoebe Taylor and Lucille Davis. "Red Die" will play on next Wednesday and Thursday of next week.

SAVANNAH, GA—Miss Virginia Carter is fast increasing her reputation as a solo dancer. At the recent A. U. Cabaret the dancer was the recipient of undoubted praise from the patrons. Miss Carter will dance the "Life of a Rose" at a pageant soon to be given.

Private Lee first joined this historic regiment, June 11th, 1903. His length of continuous service totals 23 years and he may retire at the end of two years more service.
Lee was born in Haynes. Arkansas in 1881, after finishing the public school in his home town he moved to Pittsburgh. In the "Smoky City" he learned of the famous band of the 24th, and wrote the adjunct abort becoming a member, explaining that he had been an alto horn player since he was 15 years of age. He was placed on the waiting list by Daddy" Doss and six months later he was appointed the bandmaster by the retirement of Color Sergeant Jack Ewing. Since then he has mastered the clarinet and is the oldest in point of service with the outfit.
Plays Diamond-Gold Iorn
With the band he went to the World's Fair in St. Louis, where the band won prizes in competition for the Royal Guard, the Imperial Berlin and the Mexican Artillery bands. There he met C. C. Conn, the instrument manufacturer, who let him play the saxophone. He studied saxophone, Private Lee went to Helena, Montana, with the regiment, and discarded his horn for a rifle in the Puffinian insurrection in 1886. The regiment was sent from Helena.
Barber Also
The regiment returned to the States and thence to the Islands again. Returning to this country the band stopped long enough to play for the American Consul at Tokio. The band was an escort of honor to the Liberty Boll at the San Francisco Exposition and Lee was praised. As a member of the expeditionary force that went into Mexico, Private John S.

At Theatre Looking Thor-
The usual collection of surplus accors, resting here had greatly diminished this week. The majority of those seen in the theatrical district early in the week seemed to be employed.
Elizabeth "Dinah" Scott was seen on the Avenue Monday. She has just finished an engagement with Miller's Brown Skin Models, Oscar Micheaux, the film producer, and Irving Miller were seen together. He was assumed that some heavy metal will evolve from the apparent association. Harry Thomas, the former comedian, is now stationed at the stage door of the Royal, the size of the esgantoon which he had and his known capability in other directions, assures his employers that all will be well at the stage en-
Sydney Easton left for his home in Savannah to visit his mother Mrs. Easton. Syd says that the Sydney Easton Trio had a successful season. Wes Evans is doing the outdoor advertising at the Royal; the results of his hustling are evidenced at the auction house. Another addition to the Whitman family 'Bert' the second was seen toddling in and out of the dressing room on Monday. The little one seemed thoroughly at home among his surroundings. Which is no wonder to anyone who is acquainted with his family. Edna Brown is in the market. I chatted with her musical. The task of securing that number of efficient workers is not easy.

Informed of an accusation by Mrs. Alberta Dudley-Mobley of Chicago that Miss Leslie Whitman of the famous Whitman Sisters had been unhappy intimate with Mabel Whitman of Mabel Whitman denied all of the charges emphatically.
In a statement made to an AFRO-AMERICAN representative Miss Whitman said that the two families had been friends for a considerable time, and that Mr. or Mrs. Mobley was nothing more than her sister as he was of the rest of the family. The sister dismissed as absurd the telephone conversation that Mrs. Dudley alleged that she sheared. During the reputed call Miss Whitman is said to have asked Mr. Mobley for money to purchase an oil painting to finance a trip to Hot Springs.
Whitmans Too Old
Miss Mabel Whitman stated laughingly that she desired everyone to know that the Whitman were too old for any candestine relations with men, and were solely interested in furthering their business interests in the show world. That the statement of Mrs. Dudley was prompted by purely malicious motives was als implied by the sissi-
Former Mrs. Dudley
Mrs. Mobley, who has entered suit for divorce, is a former wife of S. H. Dudley theatre owner and comedian. She is a professional formerly being known as Alberta Ormes. A son by the first Sherman H. Dudley actor now, musical touring the city. It is pointed to as a singular coincidence that Mr. Dudley is also suing his present wife, the former Dersdemba Garnett for divorce in the Washington courts.
Hears From Hudgins
"Bill" Causby, operator at the Regent Theatre, received a postcard from Johnny Hudgins' father The comedian's number of Florence Blackbirds of 1826. The recipient of the card seemed very pleased at hearing from his friend with whom he was associated professionally for many years. The formerly named time-traveler Lexington street. Hudgins began his career at this house.
Delancey, the local songsmith, is repeatedly turing out new numbers His "Louisiana Mess Around and several other numbers have been recorded by our player rolls." Some of the compositions have been pronounced the season's "best sellers." "The Down Home Blues" popularized by Ethel Waters at the beginning of her career had a phenomenal sale.

This part is done very effectively by Theodore Kosloff, and in a unique way establishes the mood for the whole picture.
Scenes of Paris life among the artists give Robert Z. Leonard a chance to grow in away with his inimittably lavish way, and these circumstances a diverting quality to the film. Some interest will undoubtedly find its way to the early sequences showing life in Jersey City in 1994, which reveals that according to the change in women's clothes, at least.

THE STORY

Seenes of Oil City provide interest with its welter of "get-rich-ride" snacks, "stock-barkers," and other backwash of society.

week when private detectives followed clues which brought suspi-
A detective from a local colored private detective organization planted in the establishment last April found Taylor smoking a $1.50 pipe and playing the races. Other expenditure and signs of opulence also cast suspicion and when he was traced to various places, he was confronted by evidence which caused him to break down and confess.
At the hearing Wednesday Giddon Stieff testified that Taylor had confessed to taking silverware over a period of two years, the entire time which he had been employed at the plant, and that investigations showed probable thefts of more than $3000 worth of stolen goods. He said his firm had 10 colored employees all of whom were trusted implicitly.
Names Buyers
In a list of buyers of the "hot" silverware given by Taylor, appear some of the prominent professional men of Baltimore. Three lists submitted as evidence upon which Taylor was held include the names of Dr. B. A. Green, corner hill avenue and McMechen street; Dr. W. N. Noville, 119 N. Carrollo avenue and W. H. Cargill, 611 Caroline Street.
Taylor gave detectives the names of a south Baltimore physician, a Harlem avenue resident, two prominent women, two doctors and a druggist to whom he said he sold goods. These places are being visited by detectives who hope to recover more loot. To all of these people Taylor represented himself as a silver salesman and showed a list of list of satisfied customers.
Investigation
Detectives in the police department are making further investigation of the case which may lead to charges being placed against some of those to whom silver had been sold by Taylor. Although some of those to whom the wares were sold say that Taylor represented himself as an employee authorized to sell goods on a percentage basis, the prices paid in some cases has led Stieff to probe further. Taylor took orders from "customers" and delivered on a later date.
One of the "customers" who bought wares amounting to nearly $300 is sold by Taylor to have paid him only $40 on the stuff. To another he is sold to have stated that the silver was damaged.
Following lists of recovered goods were placed before the magnate:
From Dr. B. A. Green: Umbrella Handie, $6.50; 1 fruit spoon, $11.60; table spoons, $35.20; oyster forks, $5.12; bullion spoons, $35.12; butter spreads, $36.6; orange spoons, $15.3; medium forks, $49.6; princess tea spoons, $15.1; meat fork, $6.50; 1 relish fork, $9.1; pie knife, $6.1; steel knife, $12.1; mustard spoon, $16.1; steak fork, $21.1; Rose salad forks, $27.7; tea spoons, $7.10; ice cream forks, $15.2; gravy ladles, $10.1; rose salad fork, $5.25.1; sugar spoon, $2.25; olive spoon, $1.50; 1 fruit knife, $2.50.4; No. 10 salts, $13.1; pair No. 10 pepper, $2.6; forget-me-not dinner knives, $22.59; 12 salad forks, $21.1; Clinton Tea, Spoons, $16.50; 12 rose tub, $12.6; 10 gravy set, $13.12; salad forks, $15.12; rose tea, $4.50; 12; 3 clinton tea spoons, $4.50; 3 rose gravy ladles, $10.1.

Cramps Forced Johnson Out Of D.C.TENNIS TOURNEY Olympic 10,000 Meter Race BEGAN MONDAY
This is the third of a series of articles dealing with the life of R. Kerr Johnson, Olympic star and former player and ten mile national champion, Johnson is a former student of Morgan College, Baltimore.-EDITOR'S NOTE
During the noon hour each day Johnson worked as a waiter in the restaurant of McCreery's Department Store, Pittsburgh. During the rest of the day, in addition to the foregoing duties, he supervised the activities of one boys and girls at the Morgan Community House. The only community worker never forgets the athletic side of life, and the approaching Olympic Games enlisted his attention. He determined to try for a place on the American team, and spent what spare time he could find in getting into condition with such good results that he won preliminary after preliminary and final American running team in the finals at Boston in July 1920.
Gets Runner's Cramps
In the Olympic Games, Johnson was
watched by a crowd, which
were well during a pouring rain.
This rain proved too much for Johnson, who got a severe "runner's cramp" in his right side, and was obliged to withdraw from the race that running women were. That Johnson would, in all probability, have won first place in this race if it had not been for ill luck it was apparent from the fact that he has since run several races in a time and order than that made by the winner. If Johnson had had the training opportunity during 1920 that he had a year later, he undoubtedly would have come through a winner in the Olympic race.

- Returning from Europe, Johnson, thoroughly discouraged, decided to abandon the running game, and hung up his track shoes as a trophy of racing days gone and soon to be forgotten.
- Returned to the Morgan Community House in Pittsburgh, where he busied himself solely with his community work, paying no attention whatever to athletics, except for an occasional turn at basketball.
- In March, 1921, the business depression had so seriously affected the financial status of the Morgan Community House that the directors found themselves unable to pay him the salary he had hitherto been receiving.
- Accordingly Johnson prepared to move to Baltimore, and John Taylor Mountain Association, A. A. L., while making a farewell call upon that gentleman in Pittsburgh, Mr. Taylor hated to see a runner of such ability leaving his district, and suggested to Johnson that he might be able to die in the house in one of the Pittsburgh alcohols.

athletes.
In this session Johnson secured work at the Edgar Thompson Steel Works, Braddock, Ta., which were running fairly full at the time. This was a most fortunate connection for Johnson. He found a wide interest in athletics at this plant from the general superintendent, O. J. H. Hartzuff, all down the line, and he was encouraged to develop his ability in every way possible, both in training and experiencing the kindly encouragement of Mr. Hartzuff and the entire Edgar Thompson Athletic Association that Johnson achieved his most remarkable successes.

Lincoln Giants Get New Players
NEW YORK. N. Y.—Manager John Henry Lloyd is fast filling up the weak spots in the Lincoln Giants' line-up. During the past week he signed a young shortstop, Charles Lewis, who takes the place made vacant by the retirement of Bill Lindsey from league baseball.
Lewis, although only 19 years of age, is exceptionally good on ground and is a strong fielder. He played like a catcher against Hildale and the Harrisburg Giants on Saturday and Sunday, and Lloyd believes he has a find in Lewis.
Another new player he signed, upon recently is Charles Craig, a pitcher, who is also breaking into league baseballs. He has his first game against Hildale on Friday. He is from Martinsburg, W. Va., but has been playing ball around Philadelphia the past two seasons.

RECORD GAME
Both games were marred by much arguing and hickering, while hit 5000 fans yelled for action. It took three hours to finish the first game and required one hour for the first three games of the second game to be played.
Giants Threaten to Quit
The Bacharachs threatened to walk off the field in the fourth inning to score from third with the tying run after Grier had made a balk, pressure the visitors the required time to get back on the field. Finally the game got under way, with the visitors and cat calls from the stands.
First Game
The Seasiders took to Yokelle's curves the first crack out of the box. Reid hit a clean single over second followed by Marcel, who scored. Yokelle jungled White's grounder, which loaded the bags with no outs. Lundy was given a free ticket forcing in Reid. Farrell filed to Wilson and Marcel scored on the wallace to P. Johnson. White scored from third when Day dropped a throw from Clark, who attempted to catch Lundy off second. Yokelle fanned Jones. However, Jones were enough to win the game.
Pilo Up Runs
The Giants came beak in the fifth to score five more. Yokeley walked out of the box in the fifth after two errors brought in two runs. Mitchell went to the mound, but fared little better. Wallace, the first to score, fled the foul sending in two ahead of him. Jones doubled over third scoring Wallace. Henderson fled to Wilson, who made a great throw to Clark, who tagged Jones on the field. The Sox managed to get one over in their half of the fifth when Taylor singled and went to the foul. That run could have scored, but the Sox manager just made third. P. Johnson made first when the play was made to catch the ball. Clark to Stonewall Jackson and Clark was forced into the bag and put out by Lundy. Many believed Taylor might have scored off the bag. Anyway it would have left Clark, a faster man, on third.
Last of Mitchell
A bevy of hits, one a homer by Farrell in the seventh, finished Mitchell. McClure took up the burden. McClure really pitched a good game, but again errors caused more runs to score. McClure was the best of the half innings he worked. Yokley and Mitchell yielded six each.
Book: Gets a Homer
Oliver Marcel on the hot corner starred in the field with several sensational and lightning plays as well as at the hat.
Second Game
The Sox took the lead in the second game in the first half, and then over the left field wall, scoring two sheath of him. They attempted to score, but the Sox scored the goaltender, and McCure and

BALTIMORE GIANTS WIN
The Baltimore Giants took two games from the Fiatapco, 4, and 3, and 4 to 6. The Giants have an open date Sunday, July 4th, but they will play the Sparrows Club on Monday at Sparrows Point.
again went in at the beginning of a game. The Giants hung up one in their half when Marcel beat out a bunt to third and crossed the pan before the Giants threw a score into the Sox in the third and took a two run lead when Marcel hit a home run by Reed Ridley. Gler ahead of him and counted himself when Lundy tripled to center.
Grier Makes Balk
The Sox tied the score at five all in the fourth with the bases full Grier walked Dallarand. The Rojos made Grier back, so the Caucasus was allowed to score with the trying marker. McClure again went to the mound in the fifth and endured a clever game. He hit off him. Altho outpit 9 to 5, the Sox made most of their blows which came at opportune time to clinch the contest in the sixth. Fial was at the ball and Dallarand for him. Dallarand was passed. Holloway hit a fly to the outfield, advancing the two runners. Wilson doubled and Dallarand and scored himself on a two-hit fly by Beckwitt.
PHILADELFHIA. — After tying the score in the fourth inning on Judy Johnson's single, Hilldale went out in the fifth in the sixth to score 2 and 2 game from the Lincoln Giants here Saturday.
The score indicates a tight battle, the Hilldale hurler was a puzzle to the visitors at all times, keeping their six hits well scattered, retiring seven of them via the strikes, and nine innings did more than the allotted three batters take their turn at the platter.
The score that the visitors put over in the second frame were added materially by Bizz Mackey's attempt to head off a runner at second base on a a sacrifice. The throw was bad with sacrificed intentions, but Mackey elected to force Hudspeth at the keystone stk. His peg to Stevens with sacrificed intentions, but Mackey elected to force Hudspeth at the keystone stk. His peg to Stevens and Johnson pulled up at second. Finley then inserted a single down the third basel line, that admitted Johnson with the Giants' score.
Long, lanky Gilmore was on the hill for Jim Keenan's gang, and the Hilldale hitters kept pecking away at his offerings until they piled up 12 safe blows.
The Dailses went out in front in the fifth inning when Briggs singled to center and advanced to second while Gilmore was throwing Warfield out. Mackey then uncorked a single to left that sent Briggs over the pan.
The local added their final tally of the game in the seventh on successive doubles by George Carr and Mackey. The win edged Hilldale close up behind the Lincolns in the Eastern League standing, as the New York team is now occupying fifth place, with the Dailses in sixth.

"UMPS" NEED TO SPEED UP GAMES
One thing could be done to improve the games played at Maryland baseball park on Sundays and it is up to the umpires to see that it is carried out. The first game is called at 2 o'clock and invariable it is given two hours are enough for any nine innning game ball making allowances for everything. The average length of big league baseball is from one hour, 45 minutes to two hours, this time vary slightly, but is over every hour and 50 minutes. There is no earthly reason, when nothing out of the ordinary has happened, why a game should drug the umpires and the players. Then again, the umpire has to stop nearly every inning, sometimes two or three times in one inning, to get new balls. He is given two or three which are knocked over the bases, and the umpire has to stop nearly every inning. The Spencer is a good "ump," but he certainly will have to put more speed in the game. Instead of improving as the season advances, things are getting worms. The first game is hardly ever finished under three hours. The fans are "fired out long before the nine innings are played and many
CURANS SETS DIZZY PACE IN LEAGUE RACE
"Bill" Force believes the Cuban Stars will crack at most any time now and the Black Sox will again mount the top of the league ladder. Bill will be the first to play in the greatest righthanders in the game. Bill has been laid up with a spiked foot for several weeks and may be out of the game for a few more weeks. Right now he believes the Stars the greatest aggregation of ball players in the country, but the terrific pace can not be kept for an indefinite period. The Black Sox started off at the same dizzy clip taking a pair of games from Hildale and Harrisburg and splitting a four game series with these same Cubans. The locals got into a slump, lost their batting eye and what with one thing and another they descended to fourth place as quickly as they had risen to the top. "No team can keep the fast pace set by the Cubans," said Force. The season is young and December Ben Hildale has found themselves, nothing short of an earthquake can stop them. This slump has given Taylor as well as the players much concern. These boys are after the pennant and deserves the backing of the whole team. The real fight yet will be between the Black Sox and the Darby Dales.

agent in the following advice to the fans in order
follows:
There is no such animal as a good loser says Rabbit Maranville, second baseman for the Brooklyn Robins in the Philadelphia Record. He thinks the "Be a good loser" in the code of Good Sportsmanship is so much applesauce. He says,
Now I know how good loser in the game of baseball," says the peppery little infielder whose antics used to be sidecalls of the National League season, "and I'll show you a player who will never be a particularly brilliant performer. I, personally, dislike to lose—have no use for love in the game, and I will point where losing and winning are matters of indifference to me. I couldn't play the game that way."
According to Maranville, when starting out as a youngster he found himself taking the game so seriously that the nervous wound would result. "I had to take myself aside," says the Rabbit, "and give myself a silent lecture. 'Look, here,' I'd think, 'you've got to forget the game after it is played. Go home and unkink yourself; let what happened on the field stay behind. If you don't you'll burn yourself out.' So I formed the habit of letting down. Gradually I got into the custom of leaving a game, even when I'd had a bad day, and locking it out of my mind. After a while I found I could throw off the effects of the strain and have my nerves back normal within a week. I would have been seen to overcome a bitter uncomfortable feeling after losing a game."
A CHANGE IN LINE UP MIGHT HELP
With all due respect to Ben Taylor as a baseball leader, we suggest to the Sox manager that he use the following lineup for a winning combination and the players bat in the same order. Holloway, right field; Dallard, center field; Wilson, first base; Beckwith, third base; Johnson, left field; Rojo or Clark, catcher; Day, second base; Fial, shortstop, and the pitcher to come last.
P. Johnson made several costly errors Sunday and should not be used in league games when Fial is able to play. It is all right to tell the fans to stick by your club and be a good loser, but it is a beautiful theory that doesn't work. The public is always with a winner and will turn thumbs down on him the minute he hits in reverse.
The AFRO is one of the most loyal fans in Baltimore and believes this change in the lineup will be for the best interest of the club. All the world loves a lover and a WINNER.
A lady who is very much interested in the Sox and a wife of one of the players sent in the following advice to the fans in order to help the club.
EANS SHOULD BE MORE LOYAL
It has been asked some number of times what is wrong with Baltimore Black Sox.
"He, the manager will take care of the players, keep them in their places and see that they are always physically fit. It takes time. You can't do this in a minute and I think the boys are all good men and they are good or bad and our club wants the rest of the fans with them too. "We all know we have one of the best clubs in the league. Are the best to my belief and should be on the top. With your help we will soon back there again. Will you root loud and hard for you. "If I have insulted any of the fans, like the man "APOLOGIZE."

Cannady Slugs Umpire When Lincolnns Split With Giants
NEW YORK, N. Y.—Oscar Charleston's Harringtons Giants made their first appearance at Protectory Oval Sunday, and divided a double home team, the Lincoln Giants. The games were witnessed by one of the largest crowds of the seasons. Charleston home runs in the two games and heavy batting on both sides was the feature. The score of the first game was 10-6, and in the other contest it was 17-5 in favor of Harringtons. There was plenty of excitement during the game. The Lincoln got off in front with ten runs during the first two innings and Harringtons was making a desperate effort to catch a pitch. The ball was at but and singled. He tried to stretch it into a double and was caught between the bases. Charleston's penalty pad, Pamela Candy, slid into the first sock but Umpire Davis called him out. Sings the "Ump" Cannady staggered Davies with a rift in his shoulder to hit him again when Lloyd intervened.
Sacrifice hits—Dixon, Young, Hudspeth, G. Johnson, Lewis, Stolten bases—Jenkins, Dixon, Charleston, Singer, Finley, 2. Home runs—Charleston, Eggleton, Three-base hit—Hindpeth, Two-base hits—Cze, 2; Lloyd, Hudspeth, Dixon.

The result of the weakening of the organs of elimination whose duty is to carry out the burden upon the skin. The impurities being deposited in the skin by the minute blood vessels, produce eruptions in the skin.

Fathers Day--National Anthem And A Tragedy
"The Star Spangled Banner" or "Osay Canusee"—No body Celebrated Father's Day—White Man Killed In Red Light District
June 20 came and went and very few Baltimoreans seemed to get worked up over the fact that that date had been set aside, by I don't know who, as "Father's Day."
On Mother's Day we all wore carations and some of us even went to church for a change, where we heard sermons about mother love and everything. Father's Day came and not a thing was done about it, in spite of the fact that cigar stores and neck tie stores had been heralding the great day for weeks.

But, you say, fathers don't love their children like mothers do. That's all applesauce. Of course, the real stuff is the environmental stuff, he doesn't blubber whee we vex him and set a candle in the window when we go away, but the old boy all there on the love game, the old girl all there on the morning, rain or shine and works all day so there will be beet steaks on the table and shoes on our feet until we are tough enough to shift for ourselves. If that ain't love, what
Now, next year, on June 20, let's all get together and give the old man a cigar or a pair of socks, so he'll know we appreciate him too.
Up to the present I have stood at a safe distance and watched with patience that has been in progress between Dr. Ernest Lyon, the Johnson Brothers and Kennard Williams concern the "Star Spangled Banner" and the "Negro National Anthem." Today I going to put in my two cents
I like the first named piece, always take off my hat and stand up when I see the band at the arms that I remember. Usually I prefer the latter. It is rhythm seems to give my none too flexible curbstone more tenure less than the American saddles wax patrolic unless there is impending danger. That national Anthem something like this: "Osay can causebe to that donkeylight; what so proudly weeat at the stripes and bright blaz through the dum de dum dum, the ram pots we washed were so gallantly stromen. And the rocks we wear, the bunz useless, the night that our flag was still there. (With great volume) Osay we still wave over the land and the free and the home of the brave." Gentlemen call off the hostilities.
Gentlemen cheer the hostesses at both.
A Tragedy in Black and White
And now to be real serious. Chas. Arbin, a white man, was found beatened home on Caracas street. He colored home on Caracas street. A girl, occupants of the home, were arrested, confessed that the man was in their house and will undoubtedly be Arbin is responsible for his own death. To prove my assertion-Arbin was born and resided in the section light district and been broken up when the type of people that lived there. He knew that since the red light district had been broken up men engaged in open prostitution. Arbin was the son of a former rounds sergeant and knew that for months police were stationed at carcass line and Baltimore streets to keep strangers out of the section. He knew that the homes were inhabited by lovers, who sold their bodies for gain. He knew that hardly a week passed that some seafaring man was killed by lovers of these women. He knew that a stranger, white or colored, was looked upon as a "White Angel" who was familiar with the police "freezee."
He left his wife and went to visit this house. He is dead, unfortunate, but ultimately for our race, because of the feeling that has arisen in that section.
Capture Hit And Run Driver
Thomas Jenkins, 15, 1136 N. Gilmore street is being held by Northwestern District police on charges of striking two people with his autographed passport and resistance. One is expected to dig. Jenkins, is alleged to have sped South on Fremont avenue, and struck William Harkes, 75, while of course without offering aid. He continued to Carey and Mosher street, where he struck the wagon of Julius Verney, also white. 110 ooeyear st. and two white, 110 ooeyear st. and injuring the horse, so severely that it was necessary to shoot it. Jenkins failed to stop after the second accident but was arrested by two policemen and to the life and probable fracture of the skull and is not expected to die.
Injured In Crash
While riding a motorcycle on Gay street, Thomas Bruce, 84 W. Franklin street, was struck by the automobile operated by Harold Miller, 3090 Roseland Place, when he reached the intersection of Patterson Park avenue, Friday. Miller was summoned to the traffic court for failure to give the right of way and Bruce, who was slightly injured about the leg and body, was also summoned for driving the vehicle with a license unaccompanied by a teacher.

ADOPTS BABY FOUND DESERTED IN ALLEY
Mrs. Josephine Summerville
Has Five Month Old Waif
Named After Her In Court
POLICE SEEK MOTHER
WHO ABANDONED CHILD
No Clues To Identity of Woman Who Left Child In
Rear of Home At 4 A. M.
Mrs. Josephine Summerville,
245 George Avenue, always
wanted a child but none ever
came. Monday her home was
blessed in a round about way.
A five month old baby girl was
found in an alley in the rear
of home at 4 A. M.
The child was found when her husband, who rises early to go to work, kept complaining of hearing crying somewhere in the vicinity. Little did he think that those yells were eminating from his own back yard. Finaal started on the back gate and then at his feet was the innocent little intruder who had been disturbing the neighborhood. The child, which had kicked itself loose from its very fuzzy wrappings, was chilled from dampness and was telling the child to go to the house. Mrs Summerville soon had the baby in the house, but like all young jwives, with brand new babies, she hardly knew what to do. Her husband called him Officer Herbert Murphy, of the Northwestern, but he didn't know either. After though, however he arrived, and though he carried him to the Northwestern.
He didn't know just what charge to place. Disturbing the peace, vagrant or officer, or resisting an officer, which she did with all of her 14 pounds. They finally charged it with being a minor and it was granted to Probation Officer George Ralph at the Juvenile Court.
Finding A Name
More complications arose when they tried to dockex the young prisoner and the only name they could get out of her was a series of lusty threats. They had to find a name somehow.
The newly appointed mother, officer Ralph and the Patrolman put together that since the child was found on George street they would name it George. But he wasn't a boy, he was a girl, his name was Mary. Mrs. Summerville declare her intention to take the child home and raise it as her own. To prove that she was willing to take the child, she first name Josephine. The docket of the Juvenile court records that Josephine George was delivered to Mrs. Josephine Summerville on June
The child is on probation to Mr. Brown. The child's illness is trying to locate the mother of the child. If found, the woman will be sent to the nursing the child before six months.

President Borno And Bishop Hurst Once Playmates
President Louis Borno, of the Republic of Haiti, now on his way to Bishop John Hurt of the A. M. E. Church, resident bishop of Baltimore, were once playmates and school fellows in Haiti. The two old crenolies got together in Chicago last week and value them not only played together in our boyhood on the island," Bishop Hurst told the APO-AMERICAN, Monday, "but we school and to college together. Politically, however, they are of different parties, President Obama, school and to college occupation, declares that the presence of American troops and American custom officials is Bishop Hurst sympathizes with the patriotic union of Haiti who have petitioned Congress to pay for American troops and to leave the island to govern itself. According to Bishop Hurst, the poor in Haiti need to pay nearly for American administration which simply seeks a foothold now in order to be permanent in American administration.
Bishop Hurst declares he does not believe the Americans ever intend to invade. Borno declares he stakes his life on his belief that the Americans will withdraw after they have secured an international political and economic affair. Bishop Hurst is also well acquainted with M. Price, the president of the United States. Dr. B. Price Hurst, the Bishop's only son, is named for the father of the Haitian minister, Dr. Hurst himself is former secretary of the Ration Legation.

Emory Smith Lauds Work of Chairman Reid
Ballimoreans who made pledges to the Howard University medical campaign responded generously declared Emory Smith, alumni secretary, of Howard University, who was in the city this week.
He especially the work of Dr. Albert O. Reid, chairman not only paid in full his pledge of man of the local committee, who had $1,000, but with Dr. B. M. Rhetta, elected chairman. He pledged to pledge of other - who had subscribed.

He said he had spent a part of last week in Detroit and Cincinnati and in ten days had collected over $1,400 for
A large part of his work, he declared, is to keep a record of all former Howard University and of Alumni Secretaries, he stated, recognized the fact that all alumni are not graduates. Any man or woman who has once attended an institution even though attended is an alumnus of that institution. Before Howard University had an alumni secretary it carried 1,500 names and not only attended the school. These names and addresses, however, were not all current. Today there are over 3500 names and addresses on the list and the time of one person given up to keeping it up-to-date.

HIS HAIR TURNS GRAY IN PEN DEATH CELL
According to information received from the office of Sheriff John Geiger, the judge Ritchie for the execution of Isaac Benson, who was sentenced to hang recently by Judge O'Dunne for the murder of his sweetheart, was acquitted, but his fate in the death cell of the Maryland Penitentiary, while but 20 years of age, has turned completely green. Benson was acquitted by a preliminary officials declare, but his changing hair which was formerly of a reddish brown and his continual brooding Benson was acquitted by his mind. When arraigned in Criminal Court Benson asked Judge O'Dunne to send him to the gallows.
No clemency is in sight for John Ferby, Eastern shoreman, convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment for killing a steamboat captain three years ago. Governor Ritchie told the APRO-1000. Said the Governor, "Ferby has served only a little more than three years of a life sentence for first degree murder. To let him out on the road, he must prove that no other prisoner convicted of a life offence is ever favored, and there is no justification for it. His previous record was not good either as he had already served two terms in prj-
Ferby, who is a world war veteran, protests his innocence and declares that white relatives of the dead man committed the crime.

INDEPENDENCE
HEN Rockefeller gives away a new dime, he also gives the advice to save it. He tried his own advice first and found it good. He started on the road to financial independence by saving something out of every dollar he earned, even when it was less than five dollars a week.
This road to financial independence is clear, and is open to everyone. What you have to do is to start in the right direction and keep going.
A simple and easy way to start is to bring a dollar or more to the Commonwealth Bank and open a savings account. Then add to this account every week. You will keep your money safe, you will get interest at the rate of 4 per cent. a year, compounded semi-annually; and in the end you will reach the goal of financial independence.

Arkansas Lady Says She Has Never Found a Better Laxative Than Theford's Black-Draught.
Mineral Springs, Ark. "We use Black-Draught in our family of six children," says Mrs. C. E. Nutt, of this place, "and we find it a good bowel regulator. I give it to my children for colds and constipation, and it certainly is very helpful. I have never known it to fail them. Where there are so many children, it is a good idea to keep a lazative on hand, and Black-Draught is what we use.
We have taken it itself for indigestion. I would feel dizzy, have gas and sour stomach. I would also feel a tightness in my chest. I took a good dose of Theford's Black-Draught when I felt that way and it would relieve me. I would feel bored.
"My husband takes Black-Draught for billonianae. He says he has never found its equal. When he has the tired, heavy feeling, he takes Black-Draught and morning for a few days and he doesn't complain. Do roommates Black-Draught.

Thoughts Of The Founder
How many times have you used the word "impossible"? If you have an idea you have thought of a question with something you've thought of doing or of someone you've seen doing something which you would like to do but you don't feel good of thought "impossible". Suppose you use your common sense not a little bit and chop off the first part of the great big word and you use it little and what do you get? The word "possible". Ah, there you are. The thing is no longer impossible but simply "possible". You've solved the problem.
George Biddle
City last week paid tribute to George Biddle for nearly 52 years a teacher in the public schools of this state, the first colored principal in Baltimore city and for 27 years connected with the city school system. It is estimated during this time that Mr. Biddle influenced directly some boys and girls in his schools, through eight principals and 100 teachers who served under him, sometimes a member of the city it is estimated that he affected over 100,000 boys and girls indirectly.
Pupils and teachers who paid tribute to him this week recall that he is a fundamentalist in education, emphasizing the teaching of three Es's and from the school curriculum; that he was a strict disciplinarian that he was scrupulously honest; that he teacher in his building tried more than once to use a school telephone for other than school business; and that he was unfailingly punctual and insisted upon punctu-
his favorite expression to a teacher once late was, "Nine o'clock means sixty minutes after eight." Added to what he attributed his long service and success as a principal and a teacher, he added that in addition to hard work and study, he never began his day without invoking the air and blessing of the Greatest Teacher of all.
In honoring Mr. Biddle the city pays a big tribute to itself. He is not one who traveled in his youth, but he has lived discovered new territory and made new conquests or brought back rich stores of wealth or information. His are the annals of the poor but truly great.
For half a century he built his life into the boys and girls of this community and gave good job and thousands are better citizens because he lived.
Teacher's Pay
Baltimore City teachers lost their last week in a city court.
Judge Ulman, declining a petition for mandamus, decided that the Faucon appropriation must be made to the salaries of the high school teachers applies to the white schools only.
The law declares that there shall be no difference in teachers' salaries on account of that Colored teacher, or that if the salary of a white male teacher in a white high school was higher than the salary of a female colored teacher in a colored high school, then there was difference on account of sex use in the colored school in law therefore applied.
We believe that the contention of the colored teachers in the case is not only logical, but just and legal, and we welcome their announcement that the case is to be appealed.
In so far as judge Uman decided against these colored teachers they lost their case. But in another sense they have won it, for they secured the admission from superintendent of schools, David E. Weglein, that if the teachers in the colored high school of the city were the only question about the law applying to them and about them receiving increased salaries.
We call this to the attention of Mayor Jackson, the Board of Estimates and the School Board, that upon this admission on the part of our superintendent of schools, Baltimore stands convicted of criminating its colored teachers in the high schools because they are too ignorant. Regardless of what the outcome of the case is in the court, we ask them what they are going to do about it.
In the graduation exercises at the Douglass High School and in the Teachers Training School this week the Mayor and the School officials bled themselves a square deal with the system.

Police
When Governor Ritchie comes up
for re-election next year we ask
the voters of this state to remember
that it is he who has firmly
refused to ranch the appointment
of colored men to the police force
in Baltimore.
The city police department comes
directly under the governor who ap-
point a police commissioner direc-
tively responsible to him for the
conduct of this office.
Delegations, and individuals have been to see the governor and the police commissioner. They have pointed out to these gentlemen the large number of police in Washington, Philadelphia, New York, Knoxville, Tennessee, and other cities around the country. The only repub of these gentlemen to the importities of colored people has been, "the time is not yet ripe"; which is usual excuse of a public official who cannot find justification for his line of procedure.
Since the delegations have been to see the governor and police commissioners, Houston, Fulton, and St. Louis, the two colored members of the police force, it would be expected that race prejudice, if it were to operate anywhere, would operate in Houston. Nevertheless, the officials of that town, believing in the good American principle of no taxation without representation determined that the police officer while had a right on the police force.
Two white policemen who objected to this procedure and refused to march to the police station along with the colored brethren, were forced to resign and in an address to the force the chief said, he was willing to receive the burgess of any officer that he could work because of the new colored cops.
Few Democrats in Maryland have utilized the support of colored voters, to ride into office as has Governor Ritchie and then proceeded to forget it.
Colored voters who have twice helped elect Governor Ritchie to the highest office in the state of citizens cannot cause their entry to this situation.
It is an issue which the governor, so unfair as he may, cannot dodge.
Let's Go
If the announcement of Mr. James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, that a fund of $1,000,000 is needed to support the "a哭 for public opinion," the AFRO AMERICAN desires to put itself on record as favoring the proposition one hundred per cent.
We hope it isn't a feeler; we hope it is a preliminary announcement only, and that there will be follow specific plans dividing the course into sections and establishing quotas. If this is the case our only word is, "let's go."
Under the direction of Mr. Johnson, the National Association in the past five years has handled four millions of importance and a share of others.
It secured a reduction of sentences of men believed falsely imprisoned following the alleged riot of the 24th Influenza in Houston on November 10 in the vetted in the celebrated Sweet segregation case at Detroit and the Curtis segregation case in Washington. Its anti-lynching legislation fight is still in Congress. The score stands two to one. The country has never before been so favorably nciled toward the National Association-for the Advancement of Colored People. It enjoys the high water mark of public confidence. It is a nation-wide confidence in the integrity of the Association, and its officials. It received and dispensed properly thousands of dollars in connection with the Sweet case and with the anti-lynching agi-
The public als obsa confidence in the ability of the Association which has succeeded in interesting and drafting the best brains of both races to carry out its work. The work of Clarence Darrow in the field of shielded Storey in the segregation case are just two examples of the type of men the N. A. A. C. P. has rallied to its cause.
There is public confidence in the courage of the National Association. It stands for the support of membership as a complete in Texas as in Vermont and California. It has never yet been afraid to say that it stands for social equality, which in the South is interpreted to mean the right to vote, the right to intermarry, the right to eat, places the right to attend theaters and other places of public amusement.
The public also has confidence in sincerity of the Association. It knows that the N. A. A. C. P. is not fighting simply the battle for Negro but that the principles for black countries are fundamental, and American.

Absence of Virile Press Means That Pinchhead Justice Prevails in Wilmington.
To the Editor:
I am herewishing to you a copy of a letter sent to James Weldon Johnson, in relation to the National Negro Abthem. It speaks for you.
While I am at it, let me tell you that I think that your attitude on these propositions is always manly, not constant or any influence in Baltimore so helpful to people as the consistent, constant, fearless attitude of your paper. For instance, I contrast the difference between a letter addressed to Baltimore and in Maryland with those in Delaware.
When I see that you speak approvingly of the attitude of Mr. Justice Brown, you speak of colored people; whereas we have no need bespeak our grievances and appreciation at Wilmington; and in that case we are assisted in Baltimore, the courts are upright and fair, and are assisted to be upright and fair by the upright and courageous sponsorship of the Baltimore ACL.

William Pickens, in whose honor Miss Zona Gale, famous writer of Wisconsin, gave a luncheon at Madison, Wisc. Monday. It was attended by the university and the community and was held at Arden house, one of the girls' dormitories. Miss Gale Gale, the university of Wisconsin, After the luncheon Mr. Pickens read from "American Woman," a memoir of his poems. After this informal affair the Misses Gale and Johnson, with two gentlemen, took a tour of the university farm and ground Lake Wendota. Miss Galei who is a personal friend at the governor's manor, was staying at the governor's manor for a brief interview with Governor Ehine. Dean Pickens delivered the keynote speech at the opening of the Arkansas 2. Conference Wednesday evening.
Elementary Rights
From the Jewish Times
There is a recent setback in the struggle for the elementary rights of minorities that may say more than was intended. The Supreme Court has missed a case involving the right of a Negro to buy and live in a home in what was formerly a white neighborhood. It will be recalled that the court has appointed attorneys, who appeared in behalf of the colored-interests.
In dismissing the case the highest court of the land practically said that owners may stipulate in their deeds that property be sold to Negroes. In effect the court sanctions that the same thing may be done to Jews and others who may be considered objectionable to any individual.
It is difficult to predict how an intervention like this one in question can affect the welfare of millions of American citizens. It is hoped that another case will be fought up to the Supreme Court in a dangerous situation that has opened up.
From N. Y. Apmonotton G. O. P. Club Bulletin
"Voto of the State Reapportionment Bill by Governor Smith has arraised a storm of resentment in this section.
"The measure passed by the legislature commends the Bulletin once held the exertively fair, and was of particular interest to colored citizens throughout the State because included the fixing of new political sub-divisions under which colored voters would have exercised control of a Senate District.
"The control should have insured the election of a state senator and two assemblymen from that group, thereby establishing a precedent in New York State."
marriage law hits the Negro today in the South and in the North it will strike the Chinese and the Japanese tomorrow even as it affords the yellow races in the far West.
Now is the time.

DAY BY DAY
WITH WILLIAM N. JONES
A graduate of one of our high schools, applying to the business and industry section of this paper with high school diploma, wrote the "just could not afford to work for less than $25 per week. Explaining the matter further he stated that the cost to young men meeting the social requirements of the times made it necessary to have a monthly budget of at least $20 per week. There is nothing wrong with this young man. In fact his point of view is commendable. BUT THE SOCIAL AND EDUCATIONAL HIGH HAVE PRODUCED SUCH AN ATTITUDE IN THE AVERAGE YOUTH OF TODAY HAS SOWN THE SEED FOR MANY A WASTED LIFE AND BROKEN LINKS. Easy father's indulgent mothers, and social leadership and directed amusements, are partially responsible for the absence of the spirit to work for long distance objectives which govern most youth
In commenting on the case of the young man a prominent and successful business man stated that he was working hard half a day that was working hard half a day to learn a trade and hustling the other half to make four dollars per month which he would earn. Some of the best lawyers in this country, even after getting their technical training in school, PAID FOR THEIR VIEJURE OF WORK HARD IN OFFICES AS APRENCIES. Ask the average youth to go into a shop or business office and work a year without having to leave the office or business and he, and sometimes his parents, will call you a fool. The fact is, like young lions who taste blood, you once youth of life will hardly before they are 20 years of age, to incapacitate them for further years of grinding preparation.

This week out at the LaFayette market watermelons from the far South were among the tempting attractions. When asked who were his customers a stall owner replied that all of the sales of the bissouri fruit had been seen on national airlines. Every body knows this is not "accented" for humorous literature but become classic because of its picturing the mutual affinity between huge juicy watermelons and a few juicy apples. A few minutes after this incident an automobile passed this very market carrying a fan. The car was buried deep between the two corners of a watermelon rine. Come on, writers of stock humour you cartoonists who have so gracefully pictured what you called little picaninies doing the convention watermelon stuff. Come on, you stuff.
It generally takes a thunder clap and lightning flash to wake up Baltimore city. It also takes a Norris murder or a Whittemore robbery calls attention to some of our fundamental evils of neglect and proper civic action. The last addition to these jolts took place Monday when Vannie Lee, a shell shock survivor, can annotize probably mortally wounded one and shot eight people before he was finally captured and executed by the police. Baltimore has some inefficient and brutal policemen; it also has some as efficient and fair as any city in the world to work with the Northwestern police station and they will tell you that officer Charles Dillon, police clerk, was guilty of terrible tragedy, is one of the best police officers in America.
You will also have a sickening sense of remorse when you think of 12 year-old Mildred Duncan who was wrong because Baltimore could not spend a few more dollars to provide proter care for the insane. Of course taking care of the insane is a difficult problem. As great as this tragedy may impress itself upon us because of the immediate sorrow entailed, there are other things to the same extent, thousand times more distress and sorrow than this, as terrible as it is. There is Cheltenham, for instance, where incorrigible criminals, or criminals because of lack of proper care; there is a lack of proper enforcement of our common law marriage laws, especially among colored people, which makes betrayal from which violious and crim-

YOU'RE THE BEST IN THE CITY
- Picture 3. The finest compliment he ever received, Mr. Biddle delicared, was from the late Dr. J. H. N. Waring, one time head of schools who said his pupils were the best prepared in the high school.
Down in Georgia some time ago even Klu Klux凯克 revolted when a woman who did not understand why Lee had ran amuck lynch him. When you read the account of the attack on the paper and blame everybody else in creation. It is in a problem which complicates it. This is a democracy, at least here in Maryland, where every individual may vote to consider the government. Don't blame everybody else until you have to improve the civic status of your state and city, at the polls, in your community club, in your church, in your block and in your church.
And Death Rates
Professor Edward Murray East, of Harvard University, writing in July Current History, states that the increasing slowly and the white settlers rapidly. Professor East, who discusses the white race of over population, seems to be of the opinion that various racial groups will be in a race of numerical expansion in the future. He is reached and then will come of necessity some clash of interests which may have deep seated resentment. Every day in this world there are 150,000 births and 100,000 deaths. Counting the doubled caseload of people every day. Throughout the world, the white races, with diminishing birth rates, have maintained their race by also diminishing the death rate. There has also been a corresponding rise in the quintility. If we may speak thus eugenically of the
Since the ratio between births and deaths is also good index to the social and economic composition of a group, it is well to keep this question up before our leaders. It is helpful to the problem of discrimination, the bridgements and segregation which would in any way limit the equal development of our group.
Long as our death rate is higher we must compensate with a higher birth rate.

Although there have been 143 recorded Frackings in Florida since 1900, this is the first to be followed by a vigorous prosecution of the offending man.

Kelly Miller Says
The Negro owes an undying gratitude to the white race for furnishing leadership and wise guidance at the time when they were not prepared to direct their own way; but now that their faculties have been developed, intimate leadership will normally fall within the circle of those to be led.
The entire race must now rally about the standards of their national University. The day of the greater Howard has arrived.
The trustees of Howard University have elected a colored president to this well known national choice. George W. Bush was fallen upon Bishop J. A. Gregg of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, now stationed in South Africa, who is widely reputed as a man of wisdom. Howard University was founded by General O. O. Howard in 1867, and chartered by Congress as a university for the education of youth. The eminent arts faculty. Its position down to the present time it has been under white presidents with the exception of two years when the Honorable John M. Laugust served as acting president. The institution is in the raciality of the headship of this institution is the result of deliberate policy and indicates the most significant step in the generation ago. Colonel Theodore Housevett, Chairman of the Committee of the Trustee Board, charged with this choice, was thoroughly convinced of the practical wisdom of the
It is believed that it is best that the intimate, internal management should be brought in closer sympathy with social sensibilities, with social tenacity and through the force of example its appeal may be more persuasive to the ambition and aspiration of Negro youth.
The Board of Trustees is composed of 24 members, divided between the races in the proportion of two in favor of the other; the faculty is about one-third divided by the color. There is no contemptible change in this respect either in the faculty or the governing board.
Howard University is the largest, most complete and best equipped institution of learning of the type now known. It has an field of over 2,000 students of collegiate and professional grade. Its curriculum is easily compared with that of a proved collegiate and university standard. It is accredited by the association of colleges of the Middle States which includes such widely famed institutions as the University of John Hopkins, its collegiate and professional courses cover the usual range of the northern universities.
Besides college work the university operates schools of medicine, law, theology, engineering, music, theology, and practiced arts. Dr. Hillary D. Dillard, who since the death of President Prissell of Hampton University as the dean of the Department of its relation to Negro education, has awarded University "the captain of Negro Education."
$4,000,000 In 47 Years
Howard University has been r eeling appropriations from Congress since 1893, during the period the government appropriation has amounted to more than $4,000,000. The government would search in vain for any like sum that has resulted in greater national value and advantage.
The certification of this governmental provision rests upon the claim of the Negro race for fair educational consideration at the hands of the federal government at the vague, indelible feeling that somehow the governmentows the Negro an unpaid debt of gratitude. If not in law, colored youth are effectively excluded from most of the educational enterprises supported by the federal government. The grant to Howard University is but a moral though not legal offset to this exculpation.
Negro colleges and universities are in the main supported by private philanthropists, but Howard University for the past two years has been from sources its maintenance has been all but wholly by federal grants and tuition from the student body.
Some fear was expressed that a great risk would be incurred by an opportunity to hold with responsibility of securing these annual grants from Congress; but the final counsel prevailed that a Negro of the right type and temperament might be more likely to succeed in the causing the cause of his race before the lawmakers of the land.

*stows upon Howard University, Public Support*
Private institutions under Negro management have not suffered by way of securing public support. The Duke of North Carolina and the Negro colleges, all of which are under Negro presidents. On general principles it might be taken for granted that any people can possess more power than anyone alien to their situation and circumstances is likely to do for them. The Negroes have an undying gratitude to the Negroes for an undying white race for furnishing leadership and wise guidance at the time when they were not prepared to direct their own way, but now that they have been given the opportunity, their leadership will normally fall within the circle of those to be led.
Negro Leadership
Negro schools and colleges are general beginning to substitute Negro for White leadership. All state colleges have Negro students to the South which believes that the race should handle its own intimacy affairs as the justifiable policy of social separation. The great religious denominations have the Negro are making such changes as rapidly as racial progress seems to justify. There are Negro colleges which were founded, supported and managed by Negroes from the beginning. University is a school of this type. It must not be passed without notice that it was the policy of the African Methodist Episcopal Church to self-direction that developed Bishop Gregg, whose educational experiences were derived from a purely Negro college. The time may not be ripe for a white college to be the headships of Negro colleges. Due regard must be had for time, place, circumstances and conditions, but as a general principle universally recognized, the Whites must decrease, the Negros increase.
Necessary
This shift at Howard University imposes very heavy responsibilities upon the institution. The institution must continue to be managed not only with equal, but greater efficiency than hitherto. The morale, discipline, standards and standards of the faculty close articulation with the approved methods of management and tuition in the best regulated American college. It is to be hoped that Negro management of "the cap-stone of Negro education" will result in a more effective and also in more persuasive appeal to the philanthropic generosity of the nation. Rival aspirants and claimants for this distinguished honor must may ask for a more formal look with enthusiastic co-operation toward making Howard University the great commanding institution of higher learning which it is easily call
Already the interest of the Negro race has become keen and expectant, while the attitude of the written is attitudinal. Howard University now enters upon a new career. The opportunity for educational statesmanship is superlative. The en-
gagement of the College would shape the standards of our national university. The day of the greater Howard has arrived.

Heard and Seen In Baltimore
By RALPH MATTHEWS
According to a newspaper story a woman evangelist was kidnapped by gypsies recently. As far as female adventurers go it was lovely idea and is worthy of hearty indulgence.
It would be a great idea if those kidnappers would come to Baltimore to recruit a woman who was lovely idea and preachers, spiritualists and mediums who are hanging around loose.
They say woman's place is in the home and we have yet to see any pots and pans in the pulpit.
Men don't mind the hand that rocks the cinder curtain the world, but they don't like to see it pounding the Bible.
A whole list of men folks fail to get a thrill out of a woman preaching a sermon on Sunday because they have to listen to their wives preach sermons all week.
And then what man has the nerve to go to sleep when a woman is talking, which reminds us of the story, that were warm friends because they slept in adjoining pews every Sunday.
And can you imagine a woman can俯救 baptizing you and when she gets you half way under stop to powder her nose.
A lot of people want to be saved, but they don't want to be saved that fast.
A female priest would be practiced the only way to be awful at cross-calling calling a woman "Father." She couldn't take confessions either because a woman couldn't keep a secret that long.
It would be hard to find a woman Methodist preacher, too, because women can't eat that much chicken.
They would have to stay old mobs around them to get around known as the husbands of "Reverend So and So."
It is the duty of the pastor to visit the sick and comfort the healed. If the pastor happened to be young party the man in the congregation put him down.
And who ever heard of a married man who wasn't thereaved. Women haven't the confidence in each other that men have. No married woman that men have allows any woman preacher to visit her husband during her absence.
As preachers, women make wonderful housewives.

Sunlight And Health
Little did he realize that in so doing he was advising a procedure which would also prevent another and more common disease of infancy. To many people today, moreover, the cure or prevention of tuberculosis. Our conception of the value of heliotherapy must be widened to include the cure and prevention of rickets as well as that of tuberculosis. Recent medical investigation has shown that sunlight has an absolutely specific effect in the treatment of tuberculosis, indispensable for the normal growth of infants. Rickets as a chronic nutritional disturbance has been known to physicians for over 250 years, but the importance of sunlight in its cure and prevention has only been known definitely for the past seven years. A relation to rickets was first suggested by an Englishman in 1890 and reiterated in 1912 by a French investigator, but actual proof of its value was not obtained until 1919 when X-ray photographs of the bones demonstrated that rickets were a common condition. Two years later, 1921, investigators showed that cure could be brought about by sunlight alone.
Ice-Box Choked With Leftovers? Here's Way Out
Tasty Dishes Made From Odds and Ends.
Practical housekeepers of today frequently face the problem of what to do with left-overs from previous meals.
About twice a week the home manager finds her refrigerator contains an array of odds and ends of food much too good to throw away and still not tempting enough to be served as they are.
To serve a dish which has been reheated will perhaps spoil the entire effect of the meal. It is the cook's job to find ways and means of overcoming this drawback. How may she dress up the left-overs so they will look attractive? A pie crust may do it, or a covering of white sauce, and the result will in most cases please the family better than when the dish was served for the first time.
The following recipes offer ideas.

Sunlight and Rickets
Beller, the Swiss physician for established the treatment of tuberculosis by sunlight on a scientific basis, did not limit his use of sunlight to the cure of tuberculosis. In 1910, a school was opened under his supervise where the influence of sunlight in preschool children could be controlled. That this school in the sun was a success is shown by the increasing number of so-called preschoolers which are springing up in this country for children known to have been exposed to tuberculosis. If sunlight is good for the cure of tuberculosis in older children, it is also certainly good for its prevention in children who have been exposed in France by Dr. G. Lee using the use of heliotherapy for the prevention of tuberculosis in infants. Simple straightforward diabetes were given for sunbaths for apparently they attracted little attention other than administering heliotherapy and infants.

N THE last few years, ple has climbed out of the dessert class and assumed the role of a food that is nearly a meal in itself. Dieticians do not consider ple in the light of a delicacy any more, but as a strength-building dish, comprising many food elements.

WITHIN PRISON WALLS
(Reprint and publishing rights reserved exclusively by the author.)
EDITOR'S NOTE—Within Prison Walls', the first installation of which is published in this issue, was written by a young colored man of good family and training who for obvious reasons is with-holding his real identity, and who due to his ability served (during a course of nearly ten years) in high positions (while an inmate) some of which have been filled by any other other occupation. During a series he will dwell intimately on certain photos of prison life rarely if ever, disclosed to the public.
In writing this story, "Within Prison Walls" was carefully locked in a single gloomy, dim room with no window, and will at no time swerve from the path of facts to one of fiction and the actual happenings that will describe the man's savior of an experienced pen of a fiction act still the event will be portrayed only as the writer experienced, or knows to be or-rect.
It was early in the year of 1917, when a certain benevolent Judge (from some wipership point of view) sent fourteen years of a state's prison. At the time it seemed an eternity, but as I now look back it seems as though you were a yesterday's hero, like the dozen nearly ten years that among other positions, I have served as secretary to one Warrior, an industry secretary and assistant to an executive highway official, assisted to install and maintain in a new $10,000 industry, secretary and assistant to a uniform accounting system and for which reward I have but recently received my freedom. It is no wonder that the time seems to have been when I was based on service, out of which in a period of three years and operating entirely from a prison cell, disposed of my business, that for a trade or moll-order magazines, it is then my belief taken from a resume of the foregoing facts, that while I am an amateur writer (as the Editor will no doubt admit) that I have a story, a message that I have sent to the subscriber—a story that in its telling might prove to be the necus from which some good might result both from society's view-point and the deliberate criminal.
Surely with the rapid growth of crime, the less prevention of same and the ever-increasing (without any seeming beneficial result of the) increase in crime, the need for these methods be some inter-medial between society and crime that can possibly point out a few weaknesses in the present methods that are being dwelt between the two and poorer methods than the other methods that if further developed might prove of even greater benefit to both.
The Jury had found me guilty. The fist was sustained by mild-mannered apologetic type of person to a dangerous brutal convict. Two bailiffs moved me to order me back to the county jail awaiting a future date for sentence. I had left the jail but a few hours men, tried and true, were going to be lucky unfortunately all of whom were jokingly wondering how the "twelve men, tried and true," were going to be moods the jurymen would be in, etc., for their freedom depended more on the whim or good or had feelings of one kind or a lack of austuteness of their own defender. I, too, was wondering what would happen to me.
However, I was returning, not in the company of a bunch of happy-go-lucky but between two deputies, security manned and guarded and business it is to watch the cruel and desperate criminal, for the moment the jury said, "Guilty" the system made back in the County Jail I was not allowed to go to the same ward I had been in, moved to the "desperate" ward, deprived of every little jail privilege or luxury that I had previously obtained and I was being made what I

Life seemed to hold no future. All was black. It was my dirstick hour. It was my first day of a state prison I had no hopes of ever again being surrounded with cleanliness, sunshine and fresh air. I came. I relieved my entire life, it came before me as if on a screen. Yes, I had lived but now I was beginning to pay

My wait was not for long. Soon the cry of "Prison Bound" was heard in our world and we were herded together and through a lead chain in which manner we were herded in a closed van to the depot and through a special door and gate to the train and coach that was to our own door and an orange clown is seated in it.

In spite of the impending därness fate seemed to be hovering around and a little ray of brightness seemed to be coming from whom I was mancured, if you could see through his present shovely, unkempt appearance, was a man of some experience. He was a domineering attitude and I noted that something about him attracted him to the two special deputies sitting directly before him. They seemed to chat about all the current events and my new partner seemed well posted. He had money, and he was a man of some property log and let him spend it with the train butcher. He shared his little luxuries with me and we were in a room where I told me of himself. He was of German origin. He had been editor of a polish paper. People at that time were decidedly anti-German. How he caused trouble for himself that eventually found him mancured to me both headed for years of uncertainty. How he seemed more self-assured. He stated that one of the deputies was a fraternal brother of his. Also that his lawyer was a lawyer of the day or two to intercede with him.
That he would be given a "good thing" in the prison and that he would be given a "bad thing" in the prison breaks. Things indeed did seem brighter to me. I had no friends, no roommates, no entire state to intercede for me but back had placed beside me a man who had and who said he would help me. I had a trick that fate had in store for us.

LISTENING CHILDREN
Mrs. Nestor Noel
Some children are always listening to what older people say, saying I think this old girl is the girl of mystery often assumed when children approach. Voices are lowered and words spoken in whispers. This exites curiosity. If there were no mystery, the children would just go on playing their own games and not even want to know what the grown people were asking. "Let's go and play," they would say, and run away to their own accord. To say to children, "You're not wanted," is to make them wish to remain. If you hide behind a secret door, the children will at once seek to enter.
We have no mysteries in our house, except those delightful ones that go with birthdays and Christmas time. None of us ever say to a child, "Go away. This is not for you to hear." We wouldn't cure ourselves to speak with mystery to my mind, generally implies seandal, and I have no desire to listen to this at any time.
People tell children that it is rude to listen to what is not intended for them, but do they set them a good example? in rural districts, I have heard that children do this fault, and the minute after, they themselves are listening at the telephone when the call was not for them! The only way to teach small children anything is by example, and this applies as much to listening as to anything else. Our mothers push their children aside and say, "I wish you wouldn't always come where you are not wanted!" These children had followed, not with any idea of wrong, but because they wanted to be with their mothers. A child may listen because he is intelligent and likes to learn about things. It is of no use to say, "Run away, you can't understand." Children understand a great deal more than we do. They really understand that they are constantly growing and before we realize it, these young people may comprehend better than we. There is certainly no wrong in listening to children do it openly, but of course when they listen blithe and curtains it becomes a serious fault.
In case of sickness, a small child's symptoms should never be discussed near by in a whisper. A child's hearing is generally very acute. Incalculable harm may be done if he hears himself discussed. If you do not want him to hear what you are saying, be careful to say it in another word room well out of hearing, often does more harm than a whole sentence. A child has a lively imagination, and may plece the words together in a way never intended.
A rolling stone gathers no moss, but it gets to be a pretty smooth article.

Don't think natural affection like charity, must bear all things, hope all things, believe all things, endure all things—and never fail. It generally does, but who wants to strain love to the breaking points?
BY MME. R. CREDITT-OLE
Did it ever occur to you that your friends and acquaintances, to behold a marked difference between the two periods of the day?
A woman should be charming at all times, and especially onchaining, when given for recreation and enjoyment, a time when most of the work-ads or care should be taken to place all of her charms into fine setting, to impress those who will feel your enchantment.
Do you remember the evenings we did not look our best? How we have to rectify or displace the poorly made-up face, badly arranged hair in appropriate attire and taste we so well have learned to use to our own advantage.
Do not permit the tired look of the day to remain in your eyes and on your skin. Prepare your toilet, so that you can cream your skin, removing every tract of make-up, and dirt of the day, then apply it to your face, neck, back, or a good tissue builder, lay on the bed, completely relaxed for ten minutes, remove the application, and five minutes back, wash your eyes, change your eyes are sparkling, the blood is

Bishop Gregg told the AFRO AMERICAN, he had looked over the church and there was no incentive great enough to make him renounce it. After reading the consecration services of his pastor, he could not accept a secular calling.

WEEKLY
The Race Problem,
The Race Problem, Its Cause And Cure
Department of Sociology, Ohio State University. Delivered at the interdisciplinary Ministers Conference at Fisk University.
Race prejudice is merely a form of human behavior; it is acquired, not inherited; it can be scientifically studied in order that it may be intelligently controlled for the benefit of all parties whom it concerns. It is a worldly prejudice, not a worldly world; the people all over the world formerly isolated from each other have been brought in close contact.
The natural ethnocentric attitudes of people to think that they are better than others are a special conflict, is bound with a complexity of conflict, economic, religious;色 not the cause of prejudice, for the Chinese people have no prejudice against the colored people, but it serves as a symbol of past experience.
The Nordic theory, believing that a certain group of people is biologically gifted for civilization is entirely pseudo-scientific. It has always been over thrown by modern anthropologists, but common people, to be sure.
Now, in order to understand how race prejudice functions we have to understand crowd-psychology. To be sure, common people usually don't think they let others think for them. Thus, propaganda, slagging, magazines, books, movies, and plays, is causing people not only to use the same slang, sing the same melodies and wear the clothes, but even to think the same thoughts and feel the same emotions.
The problem is that one wearing a certain collar, a white shirt, a factory made suit and a pair of Walk-over shoes seated in a Ford car, with a weekly magazine under his arm, on the way to the monthly meeting of the National Association for the Enforcement of the American Law.
The point is that if it person of some status, especially a politician who is pulling for a job, tells us that the Negro is immoral, the whole belief it. Many a time they are willing to sacrifice everything for it.

SEVENTEENTH WARD SWINGING TO WELLER
Fitzgerald, Hall, Richardson,
Badger, Young In Harmony
GREENWOOD OUT FOR
COLONEL J. P. HILL
Fourteenth Ward Also Believed To Favor Present Senator
Senator Weller has captured the Savannah Ward.
Organization leaders who have bined up behind the Senator in his campaign to succeed himself include former City Councilman Joseph L. Mackenzie, former ward executive, Daniel Richard, Robert Young and M. Badger. Complete harmony exists among the leaders, it is said, who are solidly behind the Republican organization in the effort to return Senator Weller to his
W. T. Greenwood, also of the Seventeenth Ward, is for Hill, Mr. Greenwood was in Salisbury, Md., Sunday, conferring with J. M. Stewart and other Hill leaders on the Eastern Shore. It is understood that Mr. Greenwood will tour the Shore during the campaign speaking for Hill. Weller leaders downtown express themselves as very much satisfied with the situation in the 17th Ward, where that same sort of harmonious action is expected later in the Fourteenth Ward.
Seventeenth Ward
John Goldsborough is already an acknowledged Wellerite. Walter Emerson, who will be confirmed at the next meeting of the City Committee, as executive of the City Council, expected to serve for Senator Weller, Senator T. McQuinn is for Hill. Women of the entire Fourth District are almost solidly behind the Weller campaign. Downtown leaders are saying that there is nothing to it but Weller. Colonel John Philip Hill they term and have the Republican party commit political suicide. With complete harmony, Representative John Philip Hill might easily have been re-elected to the House of Representatives as often as he wished. Instead, he might have been thinking certain of a Republican congressman, a leader point out he became a candidate for the senatorial position, already in the possession of a Republican who, without opposition can easily be re-elected. Thus they say, instead of certain positions in the next congress, both of them are in jeopardy.
Not Strong Enough
John Philip Hill is credited with little chance of succeeding Senator Weller, who has a majority of the City Committee and a strong organization throughout the State. Even should John Philip Hill win the G. O. P. nomination he isn't sufficiently strong to defeat Colonel Tydings the Democratic nominee in the general election. Win or lose, politicians say, Senator Weller will be Republican boss of the State for the next four years. With few exceptions most of them have already lined up under his banner. Perhaps, one of the biggest mistakes John Philip Hill made, according to politicians, is lining up with ex-Mayor Broening, who is persona non grata with colored voters. In other circles Mr. Hill's cause is not receiving support because leaders say that Hill is being and will be defeated of chance the material post at the expiration of Senator Weller's next term.
The primaries will be held on September 14th. There will be a supplementary registration in the counties on the Tuesday before the primary election. There will be no supplementary registration in the city and the first day of enrollment of voters will be on Tuesday after the primary. The State Convention of Democrats and Republicans will be held during the week beginning September 19th.

TWO MEN SHOT BY MYSTERY BULLET
Missle Plows Through One's Leg And Strikes Other In Hip
SUSPECTS ARRESTED IN ANOTHER FIGHT
Couple, However, Released When They Prove Their Fight Five Blocks Away
Redmond Stewart, and Oden Fountain, 1100 N. Caliburn St. were fined $25 and costs each after they had engaged in a gun battle on the street at the corner of Winchester and What-oeat streets, Saturday.
The men were arraigned in the Northwestern Monday morning where they faced charges preferred by Carlton Keen, 1704 Lauvale St. and Charles Sales, 815 N Bruce street, both wounded in the shooting. The men declared that they were walking on Carey street, when a bullet struck one, passing through his leg, striking the other. The men stated that they saw no one and could not tell who had struck them. Pountain and Stewart were arraigned on the late afternoon and told the shooting. The men admitted that they had shot it out near the vicinity of the alleged assault, but they were shooting at each other they declared. The trouble started on the other side of the scene, the other while drunk. The shooting took place in Parrish alley they stated which was more than five blocks from the scene where the two blocks were shot. They were released of the assault charge when the bullet taken from Sales leg was of a different caller, the gun used by either of the men.
POLICE are still looking for the person who shot the men. Fountain and Stewart were fined $25 and costs each for discharging the arms in the city limits.
As Anti Negro from School Books
CHICAGO, III.—(AXP)—That successful attempts to have stricken from public school texts matter that is prejudicial to the best interest of the Negro, or any group of citizens, must be accompanied by accomplishment of Mrs. Nannie Jackson Myers, former district supervisor of schools in Washington, D. C., who has just succeeded in having eliminated certain lines in Hill's Community Life and Civic Probleme which Mrs. Myers and others have criticized to be a reflection on the Negro race.
In a communication to the Board of Education on March 8th Mrs. Myers complained against a passage in the book which read: "Indeed, one of the chief causes of the lack of progress among the backward peoples of the earth is the fact that their wants are not being met." The famous Negro leader, Booker T. Washington, tried constantly to make the members of his dissatisfied with their one-room log cabins so that they would change their shiftless ways and become industrious citizens. A noted traveler tells of an African Negro lad whose chief desire seems to have been to marry a white wives; that that he would 'quit' his job as guide and let them work for him the rest of his life."
Mrs. Myers' complaint was considered by the board and his president, Edward B. Elliott, who immediately set to work to see that the objectionable manages the change. This work was selected by the assistant superintendent of schools, who after correspondence with the publishers of the book and they in turn with the author, succeeded in having the following paragraph subjugated above in further editions of the book: "Indeed, one of the chief causes of the lack of progress among the backward peoples of the earth is the fact that their wants are limited largely to their bodily needs. They are unstated satisfied with rude huts to protect their bodies, long as they remain content with the bare necessities they will make no effort toward acquiring more comfortable or beautiful surroundings. A noted traveler tells of a primitive house whose chief desire seems to have been to obtain more money to buy several slaves; that demand quit his job as guide and let them work for him the rest of his life."
Hear Annual Sermon
The Sunshine Social of the Psalmist Baptist Church had its annual sermon preached last Sunday. The main auditorium was beautifully decorated with flowers and the ladies were dressed inwhi te. The officers of the auxiliary wore silver crowns. The sermon was preached by the Rev. Mrs. Mary Windley of Portsmouth, Va. The Social has done quite a bit of charity work this year. Many baskets have been given to the poor and friendless outside of the church. Homes have been visited in many places. What would thought help could be given.

Police Seek Source Of Obscene Pamphlets
Among School Children
The source of an obscene pamphlet, said to be extremely vile, which has found its way into the hands of some school children in Baltimore, is being sought by the police department.
The book, which is a small, but spicy and vulgar sex treatise, has not been found on any of the local news stands, and is thought to have been brought along by peddlers of such bootleg literature.
Books of this nature have been found circulating from time to time and the police department is making an effort to apprehend the vendors. Recently a vile descriptive poem and a number of other books were found scattered throughout the city and especially among the young people.

That he and not firemen or a policeman rescued Miss Mary F. Martin, white, of 2506 Madison avenue, during the fire which burned two persons to death on Tuesday night of last week, was assured by Joseph Dawson, of 2523 McCullough street.
In a statement made to the AFROAMERICAN Dawson said: "I was sitting in my kitchen in the rear of the house, which faces the back of 2506 Madison avenue, when I was attracted to the door by a woman's scream. The light from the kitchen shining on the porch of the burned house sounded a standing on the door porch. Immediately she saw me she called 'Mister, save me!'
I vaulted a fence and found that I was in the wrong yard, immediately I jumped into the yard of 2506 and with the aid of three white boys secured a ladder and placed it against her hesitated, so I immediately mounted the ladder and assisted the trapped woman down.

In Tuesday morning's Sun. Colonel Longan, Superintendent of Baltimore City Hospital, is quoted as charging the very recent tragedy in the death of a woman in Baltimore to adequate facilities for the care of mentally deficient persons in Baltimore. The Governor is quoted as stating that the Legislature of 1924 provided for the care of $20 persons. Another politician talks loosely of a militant in a Negro hospital, entirely ignoring the inter-Racial Commission.
No mention is made by any one however, that at the 1824 session of Legislature, a Bill to create a State Indebtedness of $100,000 for the purpose of erecting a hospital for mentally deficient persons was approved. The Governor, in his attitude for the Negro, and in fairness to Senator Harry O. Levin, who sponsored the Hospital, with the Grand Jury, Grand Jury Association, and many other persons of high standing, the colored people should receive the hospital. The policy of the Democratic party in Maryland not to do anything for the Negro, and the recent talk by a certain self-exploiting office seeker, that he would have the Legislature of 1927 authorize the expenditure of $1,000,000 is only intended to be read by people themselves mentally deficient. If the Democratic party, or any member thereof, really is in earnest, then let him and the leaders of the Democratic party in Maryland pledge themselves to not only personally vote for such measure, if elected, but to cause plank to this effect to be inserted in the next Democratic State.
The last Legislature created an Inter-Racial Commission, intended to investigate matters for the benefit of the Colored race and report to the next Legislature, the commission of standing of men of both parties, white and black, serving without pay, or expenses, who have not even been consulted about the so-called million dollar hospital.
The solution is simple—any Democratic politician attempting to seek the position of an apportionment of $1,000,000, and have the leaders of the Democratic party and the Governor pledge themselves NOW to a law of this nature.
Negro hospital, talk of a million dollars is bunk.
Talk is cheap, but our present representative in the State Senate,
Harry O. Leath, produced the goods, it was not his fault that a Democratic Governor vetoed his effort.
