AMERICUS, GA.,—(Special)—Under order of the
secretary of War, the Fulbright case has been reopened.
Fulbright, a white nightwatchman
shot and brutally killed. Private M.
Smith, of the 24th Infantry after
he had kicked him off the sidewalk
Destroys.
The cast was brought to the attention of the country by Captain
Hambridge Colby, white, assigned
to the regiment here who described
the murder as "brutal" and unwarranted and theorized as a "farse" in an unfortunate given wide publicity re-
view in the New York Nation.
Want 24th Moved
Residents here do not contemplate seriously the N. A. A. C. P. request that the 24th Infantry be removed to a more civilized community because of the amount of labor work to be done here at Fort Banning and the dislike of white troops for this kind of work.
The 24th Infantry is doing little else except man labor and has been doing ever since its assignment to this post. There is only one-half day's drill each week and the regiment has been relieved of firearms at other times.
Captain Colby
Vain efforts are being made to have Captain Colby tried for violation of certain articles of war when as a matter of fact no such articles of war exist. Back of these charges are Major Fort, white, commander at Americus, Ga., M. Eve, a white editor and chiefman of the internment commission. A charge of "conduct unbecoming in Officer" would not be sustained because the offense would have to have moral turpitude in an official capacity, directly connected with his military status.
62nd Article
It is possible that Major Fort referred to the 62nd Article which prohibits an officer from using disrespectful or contemptuous words against the President, Vice-President, The Secretary of the Interior of any State, Territory or Possession of the United States in which he is quartered. That article, however, is not applicable, for it would have to be proved that the person offended holds office as described about, that the disrespect was personally, and that the words actually constituted disrespect. Of course, whether the use of the disrespect is justified or not is immaterial. But it is, generally speaking, realized here that to Capt. Colly under so film a charge would be to establish a conflict with the Constitution of the United States involving free speech.

BAR NEGROES FROM STATE CAMP SITES
Director Of Public Works Rules Race Cannot Use Public Grounds
ORDER FOLLOWS ACTION
IN FREDERICK CAMP
Colored people will not be permitted to use the State Camp sites located along the National Pike between Baltimore and the Pennsylvania line provided by the Maryland State Road Commission according to Director of Public Works, John N. Mackall.
Mr. Mackall's ruling followed an investigation by the AFRO-AMERICAN, on complaint of Mrs. C. S. Alexander, of Stepmenson, Va., who commiss with her husband was refused accommodation at the Frederick camp site August 4th.
Refused Site
In a letter to this paper, Mrs. Alexander stated that they reached the camp late in the evening when she noticed it was a free State camp. As they entered they were told by an attendant that they could be the mayor and chief of police of Frederick they were given quarters back of the Armory.
Upon receipt of this letter from Mrs. Alexander the AFRO-AMERICAN called the matter to the attention of Governor Ritchie the allowing reply was received from the Governor:
Governor Ritchie
"It was the first I had heard of the refusal to receive C. S. Alexander and his wife at the Frederick camp. I called up Mr. Mackall to ascertain the facts, and found that the admission had been pursued by the city police Frederick.
"This particular camp site is owned by the Frederick Chamber of Commerce, and its caretaker is appointed by them. I assume that the Chamber of Commerce would have made such rules as it considers necessary on this particular subject.
Passes: Buck
"Mr. Mackall tells me that the question has never arisen before, and Mr. Mackall has the authority to prescribe such regulations as may be accepted under his jurisdiction. As the question has not arisen before, I presume it is no regulation relating to it. If, however, you wish further information, I beg to refer you to Mr. Mackall."
"ALBERT C. BRICHTIE."
Governor.
Mackall Rules
When the matter was brought to his attention Tuesday, Director Mackall stated that following the Frederick incident he had ruled that colored people could not hereafter use the State camp sites.
"In places," he said, "have about the same status as hotels, and you know colored people cannot use hotels in the State."
When told that the number of tourists was increasing and needed camping sites, Mr. Mackall stated that if the people some would be provided, but for present they must get along as they did before the State provided sites.

SARATO RUSSIA, (By Mail)—Since the arrival of the American Student Delegation to Russia we have been asked many questions by students and newspaper reporters about the race question in America.
We have talked with students and reporters at Moscow, Nishinowin, Jordan, Samara and Saratov; and in each place students' and reporters asked about the condition of Negroes in America.
Russian students are interested in the race problem because many of them belong to minority racial groups who were oppressed under the Czarist regime. The students at Kasan were glad to see a Negro with the American delegation.
Kasan is the capital of the Tartar state. The Tartar students expressed great satisfaction with the freedom and opportunities which they are enjoying in the racial group under the Government.
They told our delegation that they sympathized with the Negroes in America and asked how long would (Continued on Page Three).

WASHINGTON, D. C.—(Special)
Monroe Trotter upon his visit to the
White House base, several weeks ago
tied up the White House schedule for
ten minutes when the Boston editor
was late for his appointment with
Pioneer Coolidge.
Newspaper man, however, around
the White House recall an incident
several months ago when Melvin Chisum,
of Chicago, tied the executive offi-
ces in a jam which lasted for two
Mr. Chisum had invited some 50 newspaper men and leaders from all over the country to attend here and secured an appointment with President Coolidge at the White House. The appointment was set at noon, but the morning was spent at the President and stated that the Chisum group was a crowd of radicals which intended to insult him and make it as unpleasant as possible for President Wilson, sometimes ago.
Conference
The result of this was that one hour before the meeting he getchaed called up Mr. Chisum at his hotel and told him that the President had cancelled the appointment. Disregarding this call, Mr. Chisum and the White House on scheduled time.
Secret Service
Secret services men and White House secretaries Clark and Sanders were in a quandary. "The has told him not to take him," the task was of taking fifty people out of the White House whom the President didn't want from one secretary to another and finally secured audience with the President, and explained to him that the appointment of fifty men outside including fifteen newspaper men had come to the White House expecting to meet the president before him concerning colored people in the country. Their petition was in writing and had been no intention to insult the chief executive or compromise him in any way.
Chisum Explains
He explained that the appointment had been called off only an hour before and in that short notice it was impossible for him to call up all the hotels and tell them not to come to the White House. If the President wanted to take it up he would have to explain that he would take them, Mr. Chisma said the President would have to do it. He couldn't expect Mr. Chisma to carry such a message to the delegation and hereby put him in such a position in which the amount of explanation could extricate him. "There they are. Mr. President. You just tell the delegation you don't have to give them any information newspaper men in the bunch."

"THE CONQUEST OF BRAZIL"
By Roy Mesh. Published by Messer Press, Inc., New York City. Price $5. By mail $15.13.
This is a story, not of the politics of a country, not of wars or conquests of the world, but of the favored few and their accomplishments, but of the common people, the men and women who live upon the earth, and the people for which Mr. Nash has great admiration, as a whole, its forests, its plains, its immense river basins, and alive people, its people, its people, Negro and mulatto, Portuguese fidelog and Jesuit priest. Here is an enormous panorama, over which the adventurers, religious fanatics, tilters of the soil, forest folk; and with them we see the galloping horse and hear the hummingbird, and see a vivid a picture of this land as that drawn by Darwin in his "Voyage in the Yacht Beagle." Rarely, too, has a historian made his subject so gripping.
Naturalists know best how to write of undeveloped lands, (no one has equally knowledge of Africa) and Roy Nash is of that lik, having for many years been in the forestry service. He served through the World War II, and was born in Brazil his adopted home, N. A. A. C. P. members, however, knew him best as having been their secretary from Bay, 1915 until his death, where a European civilization with its culture and art has been maintained. But we are supposed to know, and he knows this territory, where it is with the vast interior, where life is still primitive and often harsh and cruel, and he knows this territory. State in Brazil but two, and he has visited the mother country, Portugal. Of the Negro, brought to South Africa, he has a slave, Mr. Nash speaks in friendly terms. He admires his industry amid a group of white, licentious idiots, and he is upon request, Portuguese book of colorides.
To him this is Brazil's great virtue, the absence of that color line that makes our gossip so interesting. While brutal in the extreme to the Indian whom they also enslaved the Portuguese who supported the legitimate offspring, and frequently helping the slave to attain his freedom, the Brazilian slave away with slavery in 1888 more than half the Negro population was already free. And she did not stop there. "Brazil's it black man, recognized by the ranks of freemen has in one generation become sincere, complete, and unqualified."

passengers have left the car.
“Recently a lady en route from New York to Tampa informed the train porter that she would like to have something to eat. This porter spoke to the train conductor, who advised him to tell that “Niggers” that “Niggers” were not allowed to eat in dining cars in the State of Florida. This lady was forced to purchase sandwiches and such coffee as served by runners meeting trains at stations in the South.
Conductors Wire Ahead
“Another evil practised by both train and sleeping car conductors in the South, mostly in the State of Florida, is when colored passengers are occupying space in the sleepers sold them in Northern cities, they wire to some station along the line: 'Niggers in car number —, train number —.'
“The results are these passengers are forcibly removed from the train and in many cases assaulted. I cite here for your information a recent case in Palatka. A colored woman who refused to leave her space in a Pullman car was thrown in fall, forced to remain there overnight and the next morning was fined $518, the judge remarking, 'Sorry I can't fine you more.'"

BY HALEY S. DOUGLASS
HIGHLAND BEACH, MD—A few miles north of land Beach, Maryland, have appeared in our press recently and some corrections should be noted.
Frederick Colonel Douglas, by his son Charles R. Douglas, whose wife, Mrs. Laura Douglas was the first Washingtonian to possess it and allow its purchase.
Since 1533 it has flourished as a quiet resort for families and has provided comforts of country and seashore. Frederick Douglas secured a lot and erected a cottage in 1594, of mutual protection and in order to obtain taxes for better roads the citizens organized an incorporated town in 1922, the first of its kind. To date no land has been condemned or purchased by the corporation and the entire tract including the property in no sense a public highway. Each lot owner has the right to use a part of the beach as an avenue to the Cheesapeake Bay and to add property to the county road.

"It is awful for educated people to move into a third, rate dough-faced neighborhood, but I haven't heard you grit and grate your pills and other rotten diseases the white man forces on every dark nation, which permits him to get a foot on their soil.
"Also, I know that you attend one of those buzzard's roosts, for you are on that, 'muck-rake called religion.
The kind the slave-owner posed to you said buzzard's roost, which would or could be regularly attended by a beast, as prejudiced and corrupt-minded as you, would indeed, a fit place for the buzzards to occupy."
"You immoral biped, of the same man of those she flounds of hell, who possesses the internal muscles of canine rea-mement in Andersville, so to that ubliquum hound of hell, that infamous Andersonville stockade, that infamous thousand union soldiers perished in less than fourteen months. . . ."
"You are the most corrupt fruit from a maggot-eating branch of the Carpenter's business, the harlot, murderer and desecender, the same with which England kills Worcester and the same cann, with which the United States of Decl's island today. By your way of speech I know you are of that kind of biped, of keeping the white hair pure; well, I am with you there, that, why in hell, don't the makes of your species lie the women of the dark pride alone."

RHINELANDER'S APPEAL COMES UP THIS FALL
BROOKLYN. N. - Y. (P. N. S.) Wearing a comical costume, Leon R. Ken, filed last Thursday in the Brooklyn Court, denying an appeal from the Supreme Court an appeal from the decision denying annulment of his marriage to Alice Beatrice Jones-ITHinehman.
The appeal papers are said to consist of two printed volumes, comprising 1,455 pages. Sixteen copies each are necessary for the appeal record. It is claimed that the appeal papers contain the complete record of the trial of the suit for annulment, which Rhinelander brought against his beautiful wife, the testimony and all the exhibits, which includes the famous love letters, alleged to be unprintable. One of the letters contains more than 2000 words.
The appeal will not be argued until fall. It will have place on a court calendar printed about September 15th and will be heard sometime after October 4.
Former Supreme Court Justice Isaac N. Mills, chief counsel for Rhinelander, will argue the appeal. It will not be necessary for the litigants to appear in court.
The appeal carries out the announcement made by Judge Mills last March, when Justice Joseph Marchauer denied the motion of Rhinelander for a retrial of the suit, that the jury's verdict would be promptly appealed. The jury last December found the marriage to be valid. Judge Mills said at that time that the appeal would be taken on the ground that the verdict was against the weight of evidence and that Justice Marchauer made errors in the trial and in his charge to the jury.
The cost of printing the testimonies and exhibits on chinchona in Thailand, Rhinelander that remained in section for several months. It was reported early in the summer that he was in Paris, but this was not the case. Mrs. Rhinelander, accompanied by her mother, Mrs. George Jones, sister in July to visit relatives in England

MORE RUSSIA
Continued From Page One
America oppress and lyche the Negroes. More than once our delegation questions about lycheing and social hatred in America. By promoting by petition hatred in America. The day before our departure from Moscow the president of the National Federation asked the delegation to make a statement of their feeling on the race question. All of the members of the group agree that the race question was important. County, Virginia, the only southern white member of the delegation should make the statement. The Russian students that there was much prejudice in America against Negroes, and that Negroes had been lycheed in the race question, said that the decreased and conditions were much better between the two races. Not satisfied, the USPS officers, the student chairman asked the writer to make a statement on race relations. I gave the students the results of a written investigation of the students and lycheing and the race problem—on which my series of articles on lycheing in the AFIO were based last
At Sanara we found the same interest in the race problem as we had in the college problem. The reporters were particularly interested in the condition of American Negroes. They know of the work of the African American literary productions of Dr. W. E. B. Dubois. They asked especially about the lynching problem of the South. Negro students could understand why Negro students are not admitted in the white colleges and universities of the South where they have exhibited so much interest in the fortunes of Negro students that I have decided to write a series of articles on the subject for their official journal.
The students at Sararow asked us many questions about race relations and the situation of the chairman of the Sararow Student Organization was very much pleased with my statement that excerpting the material of education, the solving of the racial problem for the minority groups within Russia is perhaps, the greatest element of the Soviet Government.
Before our boat sailed from Saratov, the chairman of the student Organization in which he resisted his interest in the American race problem and Negro students. In Russia, he said, there was no hatred or oppression of Negroes. I was astonished to find that the Russian students knew so much about the American race problem and whites in America. I have met several students who have read Walter S. Miller's book has recently been translated in Russian and is now in the libraries of the Moscow Universities. The professor of the Far East could not believe that conditions in America on the race problem are as they are represented in the Russian students. I have tried to give the Russian students a purely objective picture of the race situation in America. This may aim wherever I travel in Europe.

Natives Ostracize Half-Breeds

Two remedies have been suggested to assist the father for the authorities to ascertain the percentage of all half-breeds and hold the father responsible for the welfare of the children, which it unlawful for military and civil officials to have native concubines who frequently use their influence to obtain favors for friends of revenge.

Its nation wide experience can be given to established Negro libraries for guidance in how and what to read, whether they are members of the association or not. It has already published 13 books in a series on all the great fields of human knowledge. These are in essay form and contain outlines for reading in these subjects."

BY WILLIAM PICKENS
NEW YORK—Coming out of the "movies" between 137th street and 138th St., on 7th avenue, we saw one of the biggest street-corner audiences that we have ever met in this block, which is famous for street-corner lectures,—and the subject was "Evolution."
This was not a selected audience, but the "run of the street," and their faces were lived on a black man who stood on a ladder-platform, with his back to the wall, and his face to the audience which blocked the spacious sidewalk.
And what was he talking about? Evolution? The theory of evolution and the biological different lines of material and biological development—the Darwinian science of the evolution of life, and the Marxian philosophy of the evolution of capitalism, and a possible source from corporal communism.
Harrison I have the hardest burden of listening to so many poor lectures indoors, including those of my own, that I solidum turry at a staircase. When I see the subject, I wanted to see what a random Harrison audience would do at such a lecture. Not in my life have I seen a more subject of this magnitude. How much were they "getting?" Their faces were certainly not a speaker, but Harrison. In built an hour none of those who were near enough to hear well, left and none seemed to lose attention, not laughing. The only time when there seemed to be smiles and bits of merriment was when the speaker was discussing hard-bolled religious creeds in the light of evolutionary science. I noticed that when he bore down, I imitated, imitating hard-bolled progressive actions of the multh, the people laughed.
And some one was selling boots among this street audience—"The Descent of Man," and other such texts! Now, why is it that the people will listen like this to a street talk on what is provably supposed to be a "dry subject," and yet are supposed to be talking about books and lectures. I tell you, there must be something missing in those formal discourses. This street talk was virile and inconvenient. Most artificial and bad courage.
A follow who is burdened with the weight of a church, a school, a lycceum or some other institution, is afraid of being told what to do. The conscientious soldier on this street-corner. The indoor talks are generally limited, muzzled, tongue-tied. This street talk is often accompanied by perhaps, like Socrates, we must pursue truth on the street-corner and in the highways and seek the beautiful and good in the mob and among the outcasts.

AUDIENCE LIKES ITS NEW MUSICAL COMEDY
1927 Brown Skin Models Rehearsing At Lafayette In New York
NEWARK, N. J.—The first big road show presented here for the opening of the 1927 theatrical year was Irvin C. Miller's new production, "Red Hot Mamma," featuring the spectacular vitacious queen of burlesque and record fame, Gertrude Saunders, with a strong supporting cast led by Gallie De Gaston.
There was plenty of pop and comedy in Miller's newest musical comedy effort and with the charming Gertrude to lead the way, ably assisted by our little friend of mirth and humor, Gallie De Gaston, the vehicle scored a most complete triumph.
While Miss Sanders and Mr. Doe were the outstanding features of the offering, a strong supporting cast, including some of the professions best singers and the added to the entertainment presented. There was Snow Fisher, far more than a strutter, Alice Gorgas an adorable little singer, with a most pleasing personality, Alonzo Fenderson, a character artist of exceptional ability, and Albert W. Jackson, accustomed and very good. The male singers: Colton Westley Hill and Chris Cross were good singers; was true of Marion Bradford and Billy Andrews. The chorus presented a most pleasing picture and worked with a decisive snap and spirit that won hearty applains. The musical numbers were all very good and the comedy situations equally well. We rehearsing the 1927 edition of his "Brown Skin Models" at the Lafayette Theatre Building, west 131st street, New York city. This vehicle will be ready for road within the next weeks. Most of the music of the old cast will be the line-up, again this with several new faces.
Miss Milford Brown, sweet little bird song who starred with "Lucky Samber" before the production went on the Columbia. Burlesque which George Upshaw and "Minstrel" Morris a classicon will be the new members of the 1927 edition of the models.
The old cast included Eva Metcalf, Ruth Johnson, George Crawford, Lily Yeun, St. Clare, Crawford, Vishar, Samson Dearborn, Love, Mack and John Henderson. Cuney conners is the musical director.
Miller, as usual, is developing one of the fastest chorus aggregations ever presented to the public. An artist is noted for her ability to judge girls and beautifully formed girls. "its models I want" said Irwin C. to a group of newspapermen. Not only pretty of face, he continued. "But they must have an almost perfect form for my productions." While I aim to give public girls the opportunity to cut folks see what beautiful girls we have of the race and to educate the white public to something they are ignorant of."

By MABELLE CHEW ♥ing released
"Miss Dinah of 1926," the Miller and Slater replay playing the Royal the past week was a revelation to me of real showmanship and artistry. The world has been talking about a scarcity of chorus girls but Slater seems to have picked the cream of the lot.
The reason why the chorus girls are so near is that the standards have changed. A girl, good figure, good looks and a modicum of brains. This latter is the hardest to find. Some of the girls are models of form, they have beautiful faces but from the neck up he doesn't notice. This is where Slater shines. When he gets them out on the stage they look like a million dollars and you can't tell where the costumes leave off and the brains commence.
Having a natural eye for color and shape and no color for a gorgeous spectacle, Mr. Slater produced a show pleasing in the extremes. When one had finished the costumes and settings the brief dresses were done and as they were executed the harmony was registered in the mind.
However there was one quality which the chorus had that appealed to me an that was Youth. The oneness of their acting is the out-pouring of long-repressed emotion and their sheer abandon to the mood of a moment kindles an answering spark in the bosoms and feet of every one in whom the fire of youth burns even dimly. And it is not only confined to the girls. At the Royal Palace Blue Room opening, Roscoe C. Simmons, a young man, presses into his dancing that the applause was deafening. That elusive quality of youth. It must end expression somewhere and it be-

Too Many Sammies Sammy Loses Suit
Chicago, (A. N. P.)—Failure to show the court that he was the "Sammay," lost Sammy Stewart orchestra leader, edits *The Art of the Sammay* by T. L. Prattis, editor of *Heebie Jebies* a weekly magazine in court last week.
"Sammay" Stewart declared that he was so well advertised in the magazine, "Sammay and His Nude Cut," would be regarded by everybody as referring to and meaning him. Under cross examination Sammy Stewart and his band were several other prominent "Summies" including "Sunshine" Sammy, Sammy Lewis, Sammy Williams and Sammy Baker. Street did not answer the question whether he felt himself as prominent as "Sunshine" Sammy.

In your issue of August 7th on the theatrical image I saw an article headed "Dancer Says," under it was Sylvester Thomas, head of the D. C. Actor Union. I wish to say that there is not con- trolled with the Actors Union at all and never has been, and do we not want our Union to get confused with the Musicians Union he is connected with.

Some are calling it flaming. But fire is purifying. All it needs is direction. The stage has in its power the means of directing the current and catching it in its finest or its course phases. The clothes on clothes it wants and the desire to strut gratified there is not much danger.
Helgho-ho I had become almost serious. Butr eally the Show at the Royal Theater and the Revue at the Blue room were the most pleasant experience Muse is on a par with Slater as a director. He has to me an even better dramatic sense though Slater is a greater connuser of color and form. However Muse is no slouch at that either and the chorus in the revue wore some colorful and gorgeous costumes. Occupied most of the bill of the Regent and the one by Tiger Flowers was especially good. It is publicity of course, but of a desirable kind. Too seldom can our popular idols point to a life of sorbidity and hardwork. Flowers and Harry are the first two fighters to over the hill of who were real examples of youth.
The Bible which Flowers awaits by says "Seest thou a man diligent in his business he shall stand before kings." Flowers has not done that yet but he has a Southern white man who he has known him some good and that's pretty near the goal in the U. S. A.
A little comedy skit about the Henpecked husband went over pretty good in the vaudeville. The Babe had a bit of acting in the little playlet. Trixio Smith deserved a much louder reception than she received. To my mind she has the most pleasing voice of any of the "Smith" family that have been here. There is no heaviness and commonness about her voice. Rutherford, a teen singer, certainly has a pleasing voice and of course the Regent audience made out it liked his classic singing best. Being too dumb to discriminate, I like it
De Mille Says

We hope to be shooting in September or October—although I have so many things to do because we now and then that I can't honestly set an natural starting date. I hope Paul Robeson was interested in the character of Crown. He'd make a splendid Crown and Gilpin a great Porgy.

STAGE DRESSING MAIDS ORGANIZE
A new union comprising women who acts as attendants in the dressing room of attresses, has been organized in New York City. It is called the Colored Women's Dressing Association, and expects to enroll every maid in the show business.
Meets Objections
Many women thus employed...however, object to this proposition on the grounds that they can make more money by working an part time than by following dried and cut plans proposed by the Association.
Those favoring the project are of the opinion that it will stabilize the profession and in the end make it a better paying occupation.
Liberia Gets Its First Theater
Monrovia, Liberia—A theater is being built for vaudeville and moving pictures here. It will be completed within six months.
Many new dwellings are being erected here and streets graded.
Since the employment of thousands of laborers on rubber plantations by the Firestone Company, of the U. S. A., more money has been placed in circulation and natives are better educated. The Firestone plantations will lay out three additional stations with rubber trees making six plantations of 10,000 acres each. Other private companies have started to plant rubber in the belief that the Firestone Company will give them a good price for rubber. Rice is worth seven cents a pound, sugar, 12 to 14 cents, flour ten to 12 cents.

DUDLEY SAYS:
S. H. Dudley, promoter of amuse-
ments, veteran star and all around
sportsman was asked why he did
not bring his attraction to one of
the large theatres! Mr. Dudley's
answer was thus:
"The Lincoln theatre is on my circuit, and has been for fifteen years and the management is entitled to any attraction that is not too hard or for his stage regardless of the audience. It is true that I played my "Ebony Pollies" at one of the other houses in this city, but I had Forty people with that show and I could not play with them. I was not the stage facilities would not permit it but a snappy little tab with eighteen people like Jules McGarris' Company, the Lincoln can handle to good advantage. Of course, my appearance with the people talking and monologue on a soap box, so it is up to the people of Baltimore to decide whether or not, they care to see me at the Lincoln, as I don't think I will ever return to for a performance."

"Easy Money" is positively the greatest box office attraction of all the Colored Pictures produced so we think I am worth more in my next releases.

Putting A Stop Watch On Maryland Park Sunday
The first game between the Blac
Sox and the Bacharachs at Maryland
Park Sunday, started at 2 o'clock
and was over at 3 o'clock three
hours later in seven innings.
The second game got under way
about 5:15 and at 7 o'clock six
innings had been played. The average
time for a professional ball
game of full nine innings in an hour
and three quarters to to do

played at Chicago in one
hour and one minute. Cincinnati
and Philadelphia. National League.
played a game the day in one hour
pity two minutes. Chicago and S
Louis in one hour thirty-seven min-
utes. The longest Sunday game in either
league was at Cleveland Sunday
when in a heavy hitting game in
which 27 players participated S
Louis beat Cincinnati 1-7 in two
hours. Sixteen minutes.
Empires Spencer and Cromwell
and the baseball club owners do
the best they can to help hurry up the
game but anything less than two
hours for a full nine innings some
So the AFGO decided last Sunday to put a stop watch to watch to find out how some of the time is. The stop watch was out that 12 seconds in the first game and in the first game Sunday. Two were thrown out in the first inning, one in the second, one in the third, one in the third in the second, one in the ninth in the tenth and one in the eleventh. The Bacchus Giants' pitcher, Greer, used three minutes, seconds discoloring new balls, three seconds out to him during the course of the game. This is an average of 23 1.3 seconds delay for every new ball which was thrown out. The pitchers got four new balls. Three of these went to Yokeles and one to McClure. They averaged exactly 15 seconds discoloring and roughening the new balls that were thrown. The stop-watch showed, however, that the total time used up on six new balls so that the pitcher could get a grip on them amounted to
This four and one-half minutes, while it is important, certainly does not explain why it takes over three hours to play a nine inning game and three hours to play an eleven inning game. Clearly the delay in playing the New Jersey League games comes from some other source. The stop-watch will be set to work again next Sunday. TELL'S THE PREacher

SAYS HELEN WILLS COULD BEAT OUR BEST TENNIS CHAMP
BY ROGER DIDIER.
(For The Associated Negro Press,)
"For the Negro people with you, Roger I didn't know how." The answer came from Edgar Brown, former national singles champion at tennis, a couple hours after he had been beaten by the present titlholder, Ted Thompson, Washington, D.C., in four sets, 10-8, 10-5, 10-5, we had questioned, "why didn't you smash that ball when you were up on the net?" Brown, we had questioned, "why didn't you smash that ball when you were up on the net?" Everybody in the stands was pulling for you to smash it. "The champion of Negro tennis, credited with playing more 'mustairs' or intelligent tennis than any other Negro in America, by no less an authority than Sol Butler, confessed he did not know," Brown explains that he had learned only one angle of the tennis game. The drive from the base line, according to Brown, is a tennis fundamental and should be learned before anything else. Next he comes service, then, in proper order, the swing, the smash, and variety of strokes.
"It may be hard for you to understand," he pointed out, "why I could not hit the ball hard when was on, but I was not hard enough, and if I have not reached the point of smashing in learning my games, it is a defect, to be true, but I wanted to master that part of the game which came first."
"Which one of our male players was to defect Helen Wills?" we majly inquired.
"Why, feller," he responded. "Helen Wills could take Ted and me both and defeat us without extending herself. Couldn't she, Ted?" Ted Thompson, the champion with nothing nearby, agreed with his rival.
Brown is a great personal admirer of Thompson. The champion will enter Syracuse University this fall and Brown predicts that Thompson will make a name for himself in American tennis.
Bowlers Organize
The Pioneer Bowling League has begun preparations for its winter campaign. The League met at the Bowling Center on Friday, August 13, and elected the following officers: Mr. J. Ames, president; Mr. L. Ames, vice president; Mr. S. Hall, secretary; Mr. E. Ellis, treasurer; Mr. H. Gilbert, floor manager. When organization is completed eight teams will compose the league. Bowling will begin September 16.
TS
LOCKHART SAYS:
E. H. Lockhart, Bacharach pitcher and secretary to Owen Weeks is a graduate of Morehouse and Tallahassee colleges. Next winter he will go down to athletic at that school. He is by the way a member of the Alpha Phi Alpha College (rae Lockhart's left elbow was not badly hurt when Taylor jogged him in scoring in the second day, but it was a little stuff and Lunar thought it better for him to retire.
LUNDYSAYS:
After the Bacharch Giants had zobbled Rightfield Dallas, after the Black Sox had discarded him for breaking training rules Manager Lundy of the Bacharchs said that his team needed a scrappy fielder and he thought Dallas would make good at the seashore.
“We have no trouble with discipline down in Atlantic City,” said Lundy. “Our players cannot drink for run around. If they do they are reported to the management. Fans expect a high-class ball player and they get one or else.”
“I've always understood that Baltimore was a hard town on baseball players and that the fans encourage late hours and drink.”
The Bacharch manager had it all figured out that the Sox and his team had already played nine games before he came here. The first game ended the official league series making the eleventh merely as exhibition.
Charlie Spedden, the Sox boss, was of the opinion that only eight games had been played so the official records will have to be conducted.
By the way, Lundy is as nifty a short-stop as appeared on the local grounds this year. He doesn't seem to be a hit, but the difficult choices look easy. He can not into center field in the first game and mabbed a line drive with one hand, stole home with Yokelie holding the ball in the second inning of the first game, made four hits scored two runs, and scored four of second base without an error all day long. Some short-stop.
HOLE IN ONE
WASHINGTON, D. C.—While playing over the West Potomac Park Public Links last Wednesday with Walter S. Savoy, William Brice, crack golfer of the Citizens' Golf Club, shot the 56th hole in one.
It was a beautiful spoon shot, played over the big willow bush, being perfectly straight all the way. Brice was runner-up and semi-finalist at the Shady Rest open in 1955 and 1928, respectively.
He will enter the United States Colored Golfers' Association open championship at the Mapledale Country Club, Boston, Mass., on September 5th and 6th.

ROYAL
Miller and Slater, doing their second week at the Royal are trying to carry the mind as far in advance as 1230, disclosing the horrible fact that we poor marshals will be paraded. Mother Lily's show is D.O.S. This show is not as smutty as it may sound, but simply a parody on the scarcity of clothing worn by the feminine sex today.
Plenty of good singing, dancing and good comedy is evenly distributed. The show is that versatile entertainer. Andrew Fairehills, the latest addition to the ranks, are stopping the show. Rosa Henderson has been allotted the condi-mente role as a change and goes over with a bang. The show is a good character man and wrote singing "In Shadowland" with chorus working with balloons, a new stunt being used here.
Inez Tennis and Slater are ever big favorites and present a series of peppy eccentric steps.
Bessie Wrightson and Emma Hawkley are well support the chorus beside taking care of several heavy assignments.
Quinard is out of o', the limelight this week, due to the fact that business has taken him to New York, where he will launch a new show under the personal direction of his brother, Flourney, of celebrated team of Miller and Leibman.
REGENT
Billy Ewing heads a fast moving tab at the Regent this week, presenting an hour and ten minutes of clean entertainment. A choirs made up of tall shapers, choreographers, and background, displaying pretty costumes and well executed steps. Rustus Brown, Jr., the widely heralded dancer, and C. J. Davis, a singer with a pleasing tenor voice, go big as a dance team and also in solo numbers. Comedians are on hand to handle the comedy, but the bulk of the honors go to George Allen, who proves that without the aid of smut or suggestive cracks, he is capable of getting laughs. He is assisted by Dollar Bill, Jesse Gymes and Carlton Scott, a kid under cork, who as a Charleston dancer, clocks the show, while Billy Ewing, Helen Hale, Billie were given a bad break by the musicians, but scored heavily, as Billy has an act that is above the average. The accidental breaking of a piece of furniture was greeted with great laughter and proved a show stopper. He is apt to be appreciated. More praise to Ewing as a producer.
The chorus is composed of Hazel Wallace, Clentonia Babis, Lucille Braxton, Catherine Ragland, Bevall Gittings, Bobbie Hill, Bobbie Laser and Grace Whitfield. Miss Lyra is the soubrette.

Professor James Moore, one of Baltimore's youngest dancing instructors, will be in charge of the Blue Room floor at the Royal Palace Hotel. Present indications are that several well known jazz bands will officiate here from time to time.

SOCIETY GOSSIP
My dear Helena:
The vacation season is at its height and has caused such an exodus of local society that the city seems like a desert. Those of us who are unfortunate enough to have finished our vacations or are unable to take a rest can only stay here and switter.
The summer schools, childrens' and adults', have closed and have released the weary teachers and the parents, who have been waiting for the youngsters to finish making up or taking advance work.
Professor Mason A. Hawkins has returned from Wilberforce and gone to Atlantic City to visit his brother, who is also the principal of a school there. It seems to run in his family.
The National Tennis Association meets in St. Louis this year and the Rev. W. W. Walker, our athletic Presbyterian minister, is one of the officials. He left last Thursday. Dr. McRae is representing Baltimore and we are all, of course, hoping he will win some of the laurels.
Mrs. George Murphy is now able to take a motor trip to Chicago since summer school is closed. Constance and Rebecca are going along also.
Mrs. Sarah Fernand is snatching a little rest from her many duties and is
Vashti Maxwell has gone to Virginia for two weeks, also. Edua Over went all the way back to Denver to see friends and Hermione Wharton has gone to Virginia. I tell you every one is away, if I were to try to tell you all of them I would never finish. I know you love to hear from all the hone folks though, so I'll try to remember a few more. Lucretia West-Evans has gone to Winchester, Virginia, and Marble Flagg is visiting her sister-in-law, Pearl Ransom (ne eflagz in New York, Mrs. W. T. Carr is in Wilmington, and Mrs. Robert Young is in Pittsburgh for Erog's Week. Alma Rich is going to spend a month in Atlantic City and Philadelphia. I know she'll have a fine time.
I see by the papers that Mr. and Mrs. Wm. H. McAbee, Ethel Waters, Mildred McMeen, Vashti Smith and Argentina Ford were seen on the Boardwalk last Sunday.
Just as I told you, the town is deserted, for these aren't half of the folks who are away, but I could never tell you all. I must really close.
My only regret is that I took my vacation so early.
Just as I told you, Mrs. Sorrell, is down to Atlanta too and Mrs. Smith, you know my dear old friend, is in Philadelphia, and has been nearly two weeks. Hope this will keep you from being homesick, for you see there

CHICAGO. (ANP)—Ted
Thompson, Washington, D.
C., added another sectional
championship to his list
here Saturday afternoon
when he defeated Edgar
Displaying the steadiness and stamina which have carried him to the national championship and the New York State championship, he joined the fourth set, with Brown winning the second. Each set was hotly contested and the playing of the contestants brought the stands to their feet. The scores were 63, 52, 63, and 64. In the finals of the women's singles, Mrs. Dorothy Ewell, Chicago, defeated Miss Lillian Miles, North Carolina, 63-52 and 64. One of the features of the tournament was the match between Simmons, Boston flash, and Thompson in the semi-finals. Friday afternoon, Simmons, playing a steady and brilliant second himself to the limit and at one time fans thought he would eliminate Thompson but he weakened in the fifth set and Thompson won. The closeness of the match is indicated in the second set, which was, Thompson in Simmons 41. Brown easily defeated Dr. O. B. Williams and the University of Chicago, Richard Hudlin in the semi-finals, but the national champion proved too masterful.
The tournament brought tennis players and enthusiasts to the city from all parts of the country, and the night for the national tennis championship tournament in St. Louis. Brown was national champion in 1923, suspended in 1924, and after a day off off to Thompson last year downtown. The two meet again at the St. Louis tournament this week.

Dempsey Is Called Biggest Liar In The Whole World
NEW YORK—Paddy Mullins, gray-hair manager of Harry Wills, bows in a hooded mug and blows in a hooded argument outside the commission office after the decision had been reached to permit Dempsey and Tunney to win, the championship, but you are the biggest damn liar in the world," Mullins shouted at the officials. Dempsey's face wang afame with rage. "It's a good thing you're an old man" Dempsey cried. "You don't look you" Mullins replied. "You are afraid of Wills. You double crossed us. You're a just. Then Gone Normille, Dempsey's personal representative, stepped between them and led the tiltholder out of the building. Between Mullins and Dempsey started when Dempsey offered to shake hands and Mullins appeared to accept the offer in a he. Asked Dempsey why he had not made good in agreeing to fight in the league, he said in a telegram from Los Angeles last March, had assured him that he would go through with a contract, made with the Coliseum Club of New York.
Dempsey denied sending the telegram. Mullins offered to bet $1000 that he did. After a heated argument Mullins called Dempsey a ally.

DEMPSEY'S NEW CHAMPIONSHIP
Dempsey was Champion Boxer, then Champion Dodger, and now according to Harry Wills, he has become the CHAMPION LIAR. Through all this rotten living and dodging, on the part of the boxer and some members o the boxing commission, Wills has kept dignified silent. But there comes a time when silence is a weakness, not a virtue.
It is time for all of us to speak plain language. Here goes: If Wills were Champion and Dempsey challenger, and the black champion had dodged the white challenger as much as Dempsey has dodged Wills, the Negro would have been uncrowned, not only by the New York Commission, but also by every other boxing authority in the Union, and there would not be a place left where he could box for an orphan milk fund. Any such dodging black champion would have been called "yellow" in so many dodging black champions would stand as a disgrace in his entire race.
Harry Wills was not talking rashly when he questioned Dempsey's veracity. For example, Dempsey had the brazen face to say that for five years he has been trying to get Harry into the ring! We must at least compliment Dempsey's nerves. Dempsey said that he knew nothing that everybody knows is untrue. Wills boasted the one chasing Dempsey, since the memory of the fan runneth not to the contrary.
A few questions will make that clear: Has the boxing commission ever to threathen to make him contract with Dempsey? Has the boxing commission ever to order Wills to set a date for a bout with Dempsey? Has Wills ever forfeited $50,000.00 just to keep from meeting Dempsey? Has any promoter ever had to get an injunction against Wills to try to make him live up to contract? Has Wills ever forbidden the lack of financial inducement stood in the way? Wills has been willing to leave all the money to Dempsey, if only Jack would fight. If money were the consideration to Harry, believe us, he could get more money by agreeing to "he down" to Dempsey, or to sell out in some way, than he could ever get by licking
Dempsey. When we compare the character, cleanliness and manhood of the two men today, we can say, sincerely, that he is more than twice as tough than to anything that claimed Jack Dempsey as a member. Now, if Dempsey does not take off his title to Tunney, as so to act for another five years—if Tunney should happen to be licked (by an accidental blow from Dempsey), then next give to him only the rival—Harry Wills.

William G. Nunn, writing in a recent issue of the Pittsburgh Courier, tells of an incident there where Britt used his head. He says, "Practically every fan who attended the game at Forbes, Field last Saturday, when the Grays defeated the Rangers, 3-2, was turned on by the winning tally across the plate. That play occurred with Britt, former Baltimore Black Sox 'ace' at the high wide pitch. The ball went back to the screen at first base, and he hit it. As he rounded that base, the Akron catcher just starting for the ball, and putting on added steam arrived at home plate with plenty of time to spare. The rolling on such a play is that which affects a pass, ball, the runner being allowed as many bases as he could, often that a ballpailer, who was used as Britt did, and added credit when subsequent events proved that the run settled the game.

Although Paddy Mullins is over 60 years old, there are old-timers in New York who remember him in his battalion. He bet that in a rough and tumble fight Harry Wills' manager would make Jack Dempsey take to the woods.
**WILLS WOULD FIGHT** **DEMPSEY IN STREET**
Harry Wills says:
"I've been reading in the papers with the ring, the trial, the wolf, have me in the ring for the last five years, he's a liar.
"If he keeps on fussing around with the ring, he will get me in the ring, he can fight me in the streets.
"I'll fight Dempsey any time he wants me at Broadway and Forty-Fifth Street, he will get me penny to fight him, either. I knock him out so quick he'll horey he was ever born."
Paddy Mullins, white, manager of Harry Wills, called Jack Dempsey Boxing Commission last week. He told New York's said Dempsey had wired him saying that he was satisfied and would fight Wills.
"No didn't, aboutted Dempsey,
"no didn't, aboutted a thousand dollars you did," said Mullins.
"It's a bot," said Dempsey. "I don't know him in his thousand. Dempsey admitted he didn't have that much with him. After Mullins had called Dempsey a champion liar and Dempsey had left the room he showed to newspaper men the telegram Dempsey sent him okeying his bout with Wilks.

Lincoln-Tuskegee Game At Franklin Field, Philadelphia
LINCOLN, Pa.—Arrangements have been completed for staging the game between Tuskegee and Lincoln at Franklin Field, the home grounds of the University of Pennsylvania. Tentative plans had been made for holding the game at the Stadium of the Sequail-Centennial, but because of the expense involved, and the better situation of Franklin Field, it was deemed advisable to make the change. To attend games at the Sequail Stadium it was necessary to pay an entrance fee to the Exposition first and the additional price of entrance to the game. You will be the first time that this institution has had the use of Franklin Field, and it is felt that because of the many attractions of this well known stadium, and the fact that colored athletics are given such cordial training, the vania Relay Games, the public will patronize the biggest inter-sectional contest ever staged. Participants are entrusted with the problem of building an entirely new team. At the present time it looks as if Captain Grasty is to be the only player in the team, who will form the team for 1926.
The coaching staff this year will consist of U. S. Young, Dr. Ernest Martin and T. R. Wall.
ADVICE FOR AND
A HEALTHY BEING
ADVICE FOR WEAK AND SICK MEN
A HEALTHY BEING possesses the full power of manhood is truly a blessing to society and should be safeguarded as a sacred treasure. The loss of manly vigor and health is due to many causes such as congenital malformations, injury, or from acquired defects in the organs of generation it may also be consecutive, inherited, neuresthenic.
TO RESTORE NORMAL FUNCTIONING of manly vigor in the young and old requires the most scientific treatment, weakened vitality is not a condition to laugh at or ridicule to pass over lightly, for you are a sick man and owe it to yourself and society to seek intelligent advice and treatment from a skilled physician.
POISONED BLOOD is not cured by ordinary patent remedies and few of the many intravenous treatments are positive cures for poisoned blood without other medical treatments properly directed. It requires a most scientific course of treatments to overcome its ravage, and you must be under observation over a period of years.
PIMPLED FACED MEN—Be very cautious in your relations with people who are broken out with diseased skin or sore mouths. I now warn you that too much propaganda of an educational nature cannot be brought to bear on the public to safeguard the innocent from being infected by contact with those visualizing the above described condition.
BACKACHE is a symptom or sign that should not be noted. You should consult your Family Doctor or a Specialist at once as this may turn out to be the sign of a very serious kidney trouble or a complication of causes.
BLOOD TEST.—Every man should have his blood tested not only for his own good and future health, but for the sake of his wife, children, sweetheart or intended wife, for in following this advice you will make no mistake. Many are infected with the poison of social diseases that is moving on slowly but surely to make a miserable future for you if neglected and left untreated. ACT TODAY.

ATLANTA, Gu.—Tiger Flowers, the world's middleweight champion, won over Battling McCreary in the third round on a fowl here.
The match was scheduled as a 10-round bout. Flowers was fouled after a minute and a half of fighting in the second round. He was struck low and had to be carried to his corner. McCreary welged 200 pounds, Flowers 175.
At the opening bell the two men sprang at each other and the first round was fast and furious. The champion landed effectively on McCreary's face and body and had blood trickling from his left eye at the bell.
According to Walk Miller, Flowers was not badly hurt and will be all-right for his battle with Greb Thursday night.

MOOL EN
Winds New York
for Human Ills
Else Could You Expect From
Money Moon Trip
By Ralph Mathews
NEW YORK, N. Y.—Were I a doctor of auto-suggestion I would prescribe a trip to New York as a cure of our mental Ills.
If you are depressed, feel hopeless, suffering, from a sense of inferiority, take a ride through the Hudson Tubes and see how man has overcome mature by tunneling under water; determine that you can overcome your obstacles and go on. In the other hand, if you are suffering from an over-developed case of self-importance, stand under the shadow of the Woolworth Building as it towers upward to kiss the stars and realize just how insignificant you are; its good for the ego. You need your Baltimore landlord a Shylock, try parking for a month in a buffet flat and go back and forever after hold your peace.
If you think life dull, inexcitable and monotonous, which if you have been in Baltimore very long I am quite certain you do, then come to New York.
After Dark
When one thinks of the Metropolis one naturally thinks of bright lights, night life, wine baths, perhaps, and for that reason I am going to start on Harlem later. The need never go begging for pleasure. In close proximity to each other are the Cotton Club, the Capitol Palace, Small's Paradise, Happy Rhones', the Nest, Bamboo Jinn, Connie's Inn, Baron Wilkens, the Savoy and a lot more worthy of mention and many more unworthy of mention.
From the large number of chop sucy and Chinese restaurants scattered about it is quite evident that at night the New Yorker's appetite inclines Enstard. I may be a bit old fashioned but personally prefer a good chop sucy of roast beef to all the chow mein in China.
I would love to have Senator Cole Blasee or one of his life from Alabama or Georgia accompany me to any one of these clubs that they might see special equality in action. These bloodshed recline on dusky skies; men must be strong and brave, as they will to the southward such familiarity would result in bloodshed.
Open Air Bedrooms
"The town that never sleeps," is the way New York has been branded, but New York does sleep. And in some of the darnest ways imaginable. A ride past City Park late at night on the elevator, or any other public square will reveal people asleep on the grass, on the bench, on the steps of the municipal building to the very doors. Central Park is a duplication. A good natured patrolman steps over the bodies of the sleepers and goes his merry way whistling softly. As long as a um is asleep he can cause terrible trouble of these old white whiskered men, some youths, all down and outers. Subway stations furnish a night's lodging on rainy nights, once inside the gates one can ride all night for a nickle, changing from car to car. The gates are all bells. Then there are the top houses, ten cents for a bed. Only aristocratic loafers can afford these.
Two Men In Brooklyn
Separated as it is only by a small neck of water over which is stretched a little, the two men are different from Manhattan as though it were thousands of miles away.
There are two almost great men in Brooklyn. Both are vastly different in makeup, one is quite easy going, irresistibly droll, good natured, but possibly more serious. The other is a fighter, a stalker for his rights and both are doing a lot towards bettering the condition of his race in his own particular way. One is Robert W. Thomas, a grocer, who has for 25 years been a business man with a strong neighborhood commitment with Hebrew stores, and holding his own by clean efficient dealing, and the other is the Rev. Thomas Harten, pastor of Etheozer Baptist Church, who has fought with ardent zeal every effort at discrimination of any kind. It was Harten who forced out the mob to mute the attack, tacked a race girl there by picketing the City Hall.
These two men typify two of the better classes of Negroes all over the recognition by ability to cope with the white man in business; the other demands equality by rebelling against his prescription. Both are doing their bit.

13 IN MURDER ROW AS BANDIT IS EXECUTED
Three Women And 10 Men Await Trial As Whittier more Walks To Scaffold PENDLETON GETS PEN FROM JUSTICE HOLMES
Thirteen persons, three women and ten men, peering out of their cells in murderer's row in the City Jail Friday morning as Richard Reese Whittemore was led to the scaffold to pay the penalty of death for killing a jail guard.
These men and women, all accused of taking human life, await trial in the Baltimore Criminal Courts. Several hours before the execution of Whittemore Thursday night a flood of light poured upon every part of the courthouse and penitentiary yards and outside thousands of people surged about the streets. The ten men and three women must have heard the extra commotion; must have heard the trump of the feet at night in the penitentiary yard, which signifies
Of the three women in this number, one, Vergie Brooks, a young flapper type of a girl, killed her lover when jealousy urged, because she saw him
wives. Another is Warnita Christian, accused with Solomon Bingold of killing Charles Ardin, white, whose body was mysteriously found in front of their house. The third is Isabella Disharon. Her case is also, shrouded with mystery. In a triangular struggle in which she, her husband, Disharon, and Yong, a roomer, took part, the roomer was fatally shot.
Couple Mute
Since the shooting both the husband and wife have been mute. Not a word can be written on either of them, or to the other. Seemingly they have pledged to stand by each other until the end and go up or down together in silence. The other men men accused of murder have been accused of to have killed Miss Katie Nichols. Jealousy, the "green eye monster," is said to figure in this case. A similar case is that of Randolph Price, who choked his wife to death following a quarrel.
Drunken Parties
Nathaniel Bullock, John Washington, John Simmons and John Simmons in fights growing out of drunken parties, gambling and quarrels. William Dippins, another man in protests held for the death of Mugene Gates.
Will Not Talk
This week all has been silence on murderer's row. Neither the men nor women will talk. Probably their lawyers advise this; probably men in the gullows would rather remain silent. The fact that a white man has been hung, however, has left a profound impression. You know when you look into the future with the typical abandon of such a hardened criminal as was Whittemore. None of the men and women on murderer's row were involved. Their acts were of passion. They were caught in the whirlpool of wrongdoing, and the animal instinct to kill gained control for a moment. There is now a look of regret on each eye each buck to real life, a little too late, perhaps, but back.
Excitement Tense
On the night Whittimore was hung, inmates were tense with excitement. They tell you that they expected any attempt to escape the prison that some gigantic effort would be made to save the master bandit. One inmate stated that he expected a swarm of airplanes to swoop down on the prison. Even in that crowd of 75 newspaper men and officials, there was a feeling of tenseness. No one was quite sure that Whittimore would until they found him, then drop through the steel trap doors.
Died Game
"God, he died game," said one of the number standing there to a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN. "You will not bring faith of Glead to the 13 men and women how sitting in murderers' row in the city jail.
Pendleton Talks
George L. Pendleton, whose eleventh hour fight to save Whittimore's life was the sensation of the last few days before his execution, told the AFPRO that he did his duty and has nothing to regret.
It was learned that Pendleton was retained by Whittimore's father and wife. Despite the fact that, Whittimore was executed, Pendleton has received thanks from the family for his effort. There were three things, on my mind," said Pendleton. "One was the convicted man's life; another was the case itself and the other the welfare of my race. I believe that colored men should join in any fight where the rights of any human being are at stake and the principle of freedom of the courts."
**Gets Pen**
Pendleton believed that the method and spirit of the execution was dominated by the brutal host, to take life from the victim. Justice Holmes presented to Pendleton the pen with which he signed the refusal to grant his petition. It will become a family heirloom, he says.

LEVINCHARGES ALTFELDVOTED
Says Dem. Candidate For State Senate Voted Also For Segregation Bill
CITES RECORD IN
1914 LEGISLATURE
Mr. Altfeld Member Of Judiciary Committee Which Handled Bills
State Senator Harry O. Levin, Republican, Fourth District, in a statement issued this week charged that Milton Altfeld, the democratic opponent, in the 4th district, favored bills to segregate and jim crow people when a member of the state legislature in 1914.
Mr. Levin cites the 1914 records of the State legislature which show, he says, that Mr. Altfeld was a member of the judiciary committee of the lower house of the legislature which voted a favorable report. Given the poor farm law affecting railroad passengers within the State to street car passengers in various cities of the State.
The other measure, House Bill 205, introduced by Senator Frick, of Baltimore, made it legal for cities in the State of Maryland to enact segregation laws, passed by the same legislature, passed upon favorably by the Judiciary committee, of which Mr. Altfeld was a member and accepted without a dissenting voice. The statement says that Mr. Altfeld was absent when these bills were up for final disposition and were laid out publicly. The Jim Crow bill referred to provided that separate compartments be maintained on all public conveyances operating in this and other cities of Maryland. It referred especially to elective housing for a special care be provided for colored passengers or a section of a single car be set aside for them. Under that law proposed then conductive and motormen were made special police officers of the enforcement of the laws, and the refining force it would be subject to the line of $50 to $500.
For the first time a woman has filed for the Republican State committee as a strong contender. This woman, Mrs. Octavius Washington, told a reporter

SHOT CRAPS IN REAR OF CHURCH, IS FINED
Three Caught Gambling Back Of St. Barnabas Face Judge In Northwestern
SIX TAKEN WHEN HOME IS RAIDED BY POLICE
Elijah Stith Fined $25 For Maintaining Gaming Place; Others Nabbed
A Northwestern District patrolman paused in his rounds near St. Barnabas Church Sunday when his attention was attracted to three men kneeling as if in prayer before a church meeting, several minutes he was convinced that instead of Paradise it was a pair of dice that was holding their attention.
After a chase he nabbed Gus Nevett, 617 Waters Court; Henry Kenny, mas. N. Carolina street; and Dixie Green, 617 W. Carolina street. At the hearing Monday morning both Nevett and Green declared that they were ignorant of the game until the Magistrate took a pair of dice from his desk, forfeited by a previous offender, and made them wear him. Then they revealed that they knew quite a bit about the little cubes they were find $1 and costs each. Kenny, who declaimed that he had just come out of his house and was caught, in the rush was dismissed.
SEVEN ARRESTED
Police also raided the home of Elijah Stith, 11th, 139 Argyle avenue, where another crap game was in progress and placed seven under arrest. Stith was timed $25 for maintaining a crap game, and others were let off with $5 and costs. They were Charles Davenport, 579 Warner street: James Freeman, 508 Harlem avenue: Percy Nixon, 808 Harlem avenue: Theodore Frances, 908 Madison avenue: Lori Harrison, 392 Madison avenue: Lori Harrison, 1216 Argyle avenue.

The Power Of The Press
Edgar Masters could be excused for feeling a bit cocky. When a kid has struggled and worked as Ed had and has finally been made businessman, he has been made a Society Associated Farmers, co-founder he feels that the old world is his oyster.
"Next thing you'll be doing, Kid, is getting yourself a girl," his older brother and partner on the farm told him. "I said nothing as he drove off in the big track which belonged to the association to deliver the thirty or forty hoppers of vegetables ordered semi-weekly by the housewife. Edgar didn't dare to tell his mother that he had already selected the girl, but that he hadn't dared to let her know about it until his new job had given him courage. He was going to call on her on his way home that evening and let her in on
Sue Eldridge, red-headed and dimpled, had always been cordial enough when she r she had not the handsome boy-farmer or whom even a man would be proud of. She was invariably sympathetic over his business troubles more than once furnishing him a clue from her clever wits to help him out of a tangle. But when she was in the field, she knew her he always got "cold feet." It had seemed presumptuous for a young farmer without a prospect in the world outside of what he dug out of his half of the litle farm to work on. He was from Smith and who ran a whole department in a country newspaper, even if her father did own the paper. He loved the little verses that she wrote and read every line of the woman's page which she edited. But somehow now that he was business manager of the up and coming farmers association things he was proposing to him. So that night he stopped his huge shining truck in front of the Eldridge home on Main street.

Cubans, League Le For Seven
Cubans, League Leaders, Here For Seven Game Series
The Cuban Stars, leaders in the Eastern League race, come to Black Sox Park Sunday for a doubleheader. Allogether the Cubans have seven games scheduled with the Sox. Two of them to be played here this Sunday, three in Richmond, Va., and two at Black Sox Park the Sunday following.
Without doubt, the Cubans have the fastest organization in the league today. At Bacharach Park recently, during the Bacharach-Cuban series, 10,000 persons of both races turned out each day to see the island boys do their stuff.
Especially interesting to the fans will be the performance of Diageo, leading home run hitter of the Cubans.

"Oh, fair. I'm having a hard time with carrots just now. Every one seems to have too many. Just the year ago, they were so hard to remember how they retreated away by the car load because it didn't pay to ship them? All the men in the association have many more carrots than... Gue need and they seem to feel its up to me to see them. So why don't you?" Sue demanded calmly.
"Great guns! Haven't I tried? They say there is no call for them." "Seems to me." Sue laughed across at him tantalizingly, "seems to me. Ed Masters, if I were business like I could find a simple big like a market for carrots easily enough."
Her boyish grin deepened the dimples in her smooth young cheeks and made her brown eyes (winkle limpishly. It was the most provocative grim she ever seen, her leans over her knees kissed her full upon her provocative, teasing, smiling mouth. The feel of her soft, warm little shoulder through her thin rose organdi suddenly sobered him and aweed him. And it did not need the indignant protest of her whole body. She was done. His feelings of cocksureness left him shamed and mortified. She rose from her chair and stood for a moment staring at him, a deep red stain on either cheek. Then she walked to the door. "Good night," she said coldly, and went in, closing the door very firmly and convulsively and relentlessly before. On Ed's next trip to town with the bumpers and the vegetables for market, when he stopped at the first house where he was to leave a hamper he was detained by the door. "You don't buy him to have any extra carrots with you do you?"
"Yes, I have some." Ed replied. "I wish you'd bring me in a few and bring me a bushel the next time you come by," she ordered. At nine o'clock with wrenes we used stops with tumers carrots were ordered. Ed thought he was dreaming. There didn't seem to be any point; to every one, without any apparent reason, suddenly demanding carrots. It was as if his customers had started out to play a silly game with him.

SAMUEL E. ROBINSON, President
Charles Spedden, boss of the Black Sox, authorizes a statement this week that baseball in Baltimore is hanging by a slender thread. It is all due, Mr. Spedden said, to the fact that the fans have not turned out to support the team in their recent slump. "We lost 15 or 15 games," Mr. Spedden said, "by a one-run margin. This is unusual. If our team had been beaten badly, it would be time to think of getting in new players and changing the line up. But as a matter of fact we've lost all of these games by one run, which shows that we have been getting some bad breaks and that ed and he went on to the city, the first merchant asked him almost before he made a statement of his career with you. There has been quite a call for them this morning."
"Say, what's the matter with everyone today that they all seem to have a hankering after carrots? I couldn't give 'em away last trip. I couldn't have them grinned. 'See today's Clarison.'"
"The boy snook his head when you go out. And bring me a few husbush carrots tomorrow. I want them right away."
Ed hought a copy of the Clarion at the news stand. On the first page was an article about the leafed thru the paper till he came to the woman's page. There it was!
An article culling the medicinal qualities of the despised vegetable. more than one hundred and a half, said the article "owes her fine complexion to her daily carrot, and it is small wonder that it has become so popular. Then followed recipes for the preparation of carrot salad in butter, carrot jam, pickled carrots, carrot boiled with bacon. Then came menus with carrots forming the piece de resistance, and the article ended with the succinct suggestion that carrots be in the fall when the vegetables were cheaper and store them in her cellar for winter use.
"But," was the thought that flashed through Edward's mind as he finished, "why did it happen, when was angry with me?" The same annothe: "my thought, perfectly dazzling in its significance. She wouldn't have done it if she had been angry. Then his eye caught a paragraph that was apparently stuck on the bottom of the carrot article by mistake. "The man who is going to succeed is the man who uses to let vehicles setbacks elbow him off his path." Then the boy farmer smiled happily as he read between the lines much that was not printed there. He had inten tion to look at carrots that very afternoon, but after all that could wait till morning. He had other business that evening.

some of our players are in a slump.
"The team expects to make an exceptional showing against the Cubans. Fans did not turn out as we expected in recent Sundays. With a payroll of $3,000 a month to meet and the expense of paying $400 to every visiting team played here under the league schedule, the club has not cleared expenses this year.
"I am appealing to my friends who have known how I promoted professional baseball in this city since 1916 to see that baseball is kept in Baltimore. Thousands of dollars have been invested in Maryland baseball, park land."
"No far as the management of the team is concerned, we have left that entirely in the hands of Ben Taylor. In the past two weeks, disillusion among the members of the team has increased. Ben Taylor himself, is on first base and is hitting better than many members of the club. I hope we will finish in the first division this USED CROOKED DICE, GOT JUST DESERTS Magistrate O'Nell Frees Man Who Assaulted Owner Of Loaded Dice
The man who uses crooked dice and gets hurt can look for no redress in the Northeastern District, according to a ruling of Magistrate O'Nell in the case of Howard Johnson, who was charged with assaulting John Patterson, 407, N.Eden Street in the District, and Patterson he, and Johnson, who lives at 1405 Jefferson street, were engaged in a crap game when an argument over money matters ensued. Johnson, according to Patterson, stabbed him over the eye. Johnson declared that he had been drinking and being engaged in an intoxicated than he was, invited him to join in a game, intent upon taking advantage of him.
It was not until Patterson had won seven dollars that he detected the trick, he declared, at time three minutes before he would place them in differentockets from which he would take either a good or crooked pair of dice at will. The two pairs looked identical but one pair was loaded with a knife. Johnson declared that the cut over Patterson's eye was caused by his fist and not a knife. He was dismissed.

Letters sent out by the Baltimore Defense League Dr. H. S. McCard, president, this week announce that the organization is raising funds for the "Salary Case to the Courts of Appeals." A suit to compel equalization in the Douglass high school teachers' salaries was lost before Judge Ullman in local court requested to have this decision reviewed by the Court of Appeals. At the hearing in the lower court, Superintendent Weglein admitted that the salaries in the colored high and training schools were lower than in the印第安州 the same grades and that the discrimination was practiced.

Mr. Spedden says he believes that the umpire rotating system and the system of making 'a schedule for week day games in the league will be followed next year. It is his view that the team should hold an include week-day games in the Eastern League, but that each club shall put up a forfeit which shall become immediately available, whenever any other team fails to do so. In addition these games would be forfeited to the home team provided the visitors failed to show up.

Thoughts Of The Founder
Since all avenues of correct news pertaining to our race and the darkness of the world are practically open to it, it achieves in that we open sources of news gathering of the real truth concerning the things we do whether they are good or bad.
In Bali, in Liberia, in the far south anywhere our people live, we must in course of time, have live news gathered from us, publish in the world our side as against the other side.
No one can read the News published in the white paper about Bali, nor feel that that contribuisse not living up to its opportunities. The news gathered from our own correspondents, night place on equally different construction on the whole matter.
Pendleton
Last minute effort of Attorney George Pendleton failed to halt the execution of Richard Reese, the murderer, who was hanged at the Maryland Penitentiary Friday of last week. Whittimore was condemned to death for the murder of a white penitentiary guard. A new trial was refused by the Supreme bench and to the highest state court after failed.
When every other lawyer of the state gave the case up as hopeless, Mr. Dendleton, who believed "that he could put Uttimore out on the bristles," asked the local court's war of habeas corpus was due to be resolved before the execution at a hearing downtown before a crowded court room. A subsequent appeal to a U. S. Supreme Court judge also failed.
Newspaper men listened to Mr. Dendleton's 40 minute appeal with varying emotions. He wondered if he really believed that a writ of habeas corpus would be sufficient to prevent the execution of a murderer at the last moment; they wondered if he only sought advertisement. The same judge, the Whiteswere, were able to pay.
Some of them scoffed openly at the figure of this single lawyer, getting himself against the judicial machinery of the state, agitating an unusual theory which if passed upon favorably would be sufficient to surpass them from the gallows at the moment.
What they did not know is that this was not Mr. Pendleton's first experience. Eight years ago Attorney Pendleton invoked wards of haka, corpus and corpus law of the United States court of the United States in the case of John Snowden, of Annapolis, sentenced to death for criminal assault upon a white woman there.
Mr. Pendleton. If anything, had a stronger case with Snowden than he did. In the Snowden case, the attorney pointed out errors in the recording of the indictment, the method of sentencing the prisoner, and the selecting of the jury. Chief Justice White, of the Supreme Court, he had written that the writs and Snowden was executed.
A remarkable feature of the Snowden case was that 400 persons, nearly all of them white, crowded the office of Governor Harrington a day or two before the execution and release of Snowden's sentence be committed.
In the delegation were leading Annapolis citizens, headed by James Monroe, members of the naval academy faculty, and Annapolis society women. Ten of the jurors who convicted Snowden signed the agreement to be commuted to life imprisonment, since the evidence upon which he律 acted was purely circumstantial. Mr. Pendleton has the reputation of invoking the writ of habeas corpus more frequently than any other juror, and an expert along this line, especially in cases where careless or ignorant county magistrates are negligent in the manner of sentence and recording indictments, or where they have flagrantly exceeded their authority. Pendleton has succeeded in the Supreme Court, however, have been not quite so pleasant. The inference seems plain that the Supreme Court of the United States is not inclined to listen to last minute appeals where capital punishment is involv-

Pulpit Politics
Charges made by leading Democrats last week that local pastors had accepted money for the endorsement of a Democratic candidate and later officiated at public mass meetings which endorsed the Republican candidate, in requiring confidence in certain of the clergy who consistently play politics at election time for what it is worth in dollars and cents.
Week day church meetings that begin with prayer and praise and end with an endorsement of politicians pay neither the church nor the clergy long since past where the votes of an intelligent congregation can be carried around in the vest pocket of the pastor.
We are aware that the best element of the clergy does not play politics from the pulpit. Unfortunately others not so well informed as we regard the pulpit politician as the leader of the clerical profession.
We believe the results of the situation mentioned above may be expressed as follows:
Candidates of both parties have the pleasure of spending their money; pastors of the churches get the money; the church gets a black eye; and the congregation votes to suit itself.
On To Congress
(By the Camerann, P. N. S.)
The Twelfth Congressional district of Missouri, with a total population of 14,128, a Republican voting strength of 25,749 votes, a democratic voting strength of 14,022 votes, and a normal total vote of approximately 40,752 has just passed through the Congressional candidates of the Congress, and Mr. Pike who bumped heads so hard with each other that the total vote of both would not have been sufficient to have gained either one the nomination. In the first place, if the Missouri district Negro eligible male and female, had registered and voted in their full strength, there would have been a full majority for GNK Negro candidate; but even this, of course, would not have been sufficient to overcome the harrowing conflict of Vaughn and Phillips, each of whom seemed to be the most likely to come to Congress as the regular representative of the District.
To send a brother to Congress, where he is much needed at this time—seems to hea task that must be inaugurated all over again in some district where Negro voters are not proud, but are ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALL. Frankly, the First District of Chicago looms up as the only district in the country which might send a Negro to Congress; and they say in the Windy City that they represent with their present representative.
Fraternities
(From the Phila. Tribune)
There may be exceptions to the general rule, but from all apparent evidence, these Greek Letter College students, diligent, progressive, educated race loving men are not nothing but "social clans." Their chief objective seems to be to "buck" each other in other staging elaborate social affairs. Instead of attempting to encourage manliness in each other in giving balls. While the less fortunate members of their race are struggling under a tremendous handiwork they dance to the music in their court, this is not an attempt to argue that our fraternities should not engage in social affairs. It is, however, the fact that most of the young men in ourailing custom of making dances and things kindred thereto—they only cause for existence. The money and time they invest could be invested in building manhood which would stand throughout the ages as a monument to the common sense and foresight of the men who make up our "Traits."
Do Governors Lie?
(Preston News Service)
Mr. E. W. Ekwahb (white) of Hendersonville, N. U., during a recent journalist's interview, wrote that the law of the new W. Banks Mescheium (white) of Asheville, came out flatfootedly with the truth, when he said: "Mr. Meacham well knows that Negro in the political rights and privileges which are exercised by Mr. Meacham and his friends," and given admission has quite a deep significance at this time coming as it does not long after the Governors of the southern states have declared that there is no anarchy in the voting privileges of Negroes.

DAY BY DAY
WITH WILLIAM N. JONES
The Philadelphia Baptist E. Y. P. Convention will invest $40 annually in the brilliant young sculptor Philanthroly, of course, and the desire to give a worthy young woman the chance she should have, prompted that investment by the management and art world, thought of the possibilities of purely business investments in human beings. Some young and enterprising broke-in artists may insert an advertisement in the papers offering men with money a chance to invest in five, ten or twenty year bonds based on the earnings of certain, highly promising artists or women. They invest in the thousands of young men and women without means to further their training, have provenability, and great value, who should prove gifted seven per cent investments.
We invest money in underdeveloped mines, in live stock, in oil wells, in real estate, business and industry. We not develop an investment business in promising young men and women. THIS WOULD ALSO HELP IMPROVE THE BURGERS.
Few young men and women realize to what extent journalism is essential employment. But also there are few young men and women with the tenacity and staying qualities necessary to work in the far southland, the white press is realizing the fact that our group patients are not able to BROOMING DISCILINATING. Our own journals are also realizing the most accurate, most entertaining and the largest amount and variety of the PEOPLE WANT MOST. This increase in demand and variety increases the demand for training journals. We found young men and women, WITH REAL JOUKALISTIC TRAINING, could go into good employment.
Then there is the publicity and advertising fields with boundless opportunities, and the publicity population could support a public agency and pay an income for in access of that received by school teachers. The young men and women extering this rich field must have real backbone. They must AND THEY MUST have the will to work. newspaper work is also a good background for many other professions. The business would mean more to men with the contacts made and knowledge gained in newspaper experience.
There is not field where the academic problem of life can be more intimately studied, the powers of observation more highly developed and so amped with so many helpful episodes as journalism. Most youth coming out of our college can go on in additional four years in rigid newspaper work and be better off for their real careers, in the lives of their lives would in nine cases out of ten be more than if they settled down immediately to mediate accom-
This writer saw Richard Reece Whitmorem, master criminal and only white man manning in Balkan countries, a sea captain and smiling tell 75 officers and newspaper men good bye. From all indications the passions of that human being those of those that did it Whitmorem those 18 minutes they looked on as his blood cooled to flow. Death has an exalting effect on you. You could not help feeling a sense of admiration at the cynical and stolical poise with which this man walked out there. It was the unusual manner in which Whitmorem had to die and the reason for his having to die, which made it the dominant event in his life. Read the death list in this weeks AFIO-AMERICAN and you will find that several human beings have been sentenced to die at Whitmorem's home. SOME OF THEM HAVE BEEN SENTENCED HERE THIS WEEK AND LIVED ONLY A FEW HOURS.
Human beings make laws THAT MEN WHO COMMIT MURDER IN OR serve life terms. But human beings do not always enforce their laws. That's why the hanging of Whitmore arrested the attention of

Our Immigrants
in the 1400 block of W. Saratoga street this week, a house in a bither-to-white block in a hitherto black residential tenant, was smoored with paint by some parties who objected to race tenants. Several weeks ago in an adjoining house into which a family had just moved was bombed late at night. Officers said the most painful cases who cause this disturbance are among the immigrants who come to these shores seeking freedom of opportunity. The immigrants who have known ghetto oppression come to America, but that they themselves become salaried under which they have been hardened. Especially is this true of the Germans, who have known Central Europe. The Russians, on the other hand, seem more disposed to cooperate and be tolerant. It would be better, however, for racial relations to be racial connect is inevitable, and the best method on dealing with it is to give every group a chance to develop skills as will be acceptable to others.

John R. Cury says he hasn't been a n y colored landlords reducing rentals below those of the whites for colored tenants. No color line in pursuit of the dollar.
To the Editor of the AFRO-AMERICAN, I was much interested in reading today an article in your paper headed "Finance Institutions Are Most Pressing Race Needs," and I find in it indications that the writer misses the point occasionally. The implication through the whole article is that if there were finance institutions operated by men of your race the expense of financing would be reduced to your home buyers. This assumes that human varies with the color of the skin, an assumption which my experience does not justify, as far as money matters are concerned.
I can produce for the writer's inspection any number of cases of financial oppression of Negroes by their own race, and I find that those who are getting ahead financially are quite as keen after the dollar as any other race.
I should like to ask him how many colored landlords are reducing rents below those of the whites for colored tenants. I won't say there are none but I am free to say that I have not found any, for they, very naturally keep to the market, which is what tenants will pay.
I once listened to a smooth tongued promoter trying to interest a lot of your preachers in a financial institution modelled after some of the very large earning corporations in the city and his chief argument was that they were very prattable, earned more than twenty per cent a year. Who but the borrower pays that profit? And the only way to reduce expenses to the borrower is to limit profits, a process which also reduces the number of investors, for low profits do not attract them. People of any race or color are not going to put their money in a Finance Institution on the basis of 6 per cent dividends, to any great extent, while they can do as they are now doing, get 15 to 25 per cent by owning property and collecting rents.
Money that goes into such corporations belongs to persons who have more than they can handle personally, or to those who are content with a reasonable rate with absolute safety and little trouble; or to those who have but little and are accumulating it for a special purpose.
Take the case of the Homemakers Building Association, formed for the very purpose of protecting home buyers, with cost of financing held down to about 3½ per cent, loans at the rate of 6 per cent with no bonuses, renewal charges or penalties, and with absolutely fair treatment. We have done our best to make its merits known, but we should have had but slim success if I had not secured money from my white friends, who felt it was an enterprise sound in character which would bring help to those who needed it. And I am told that 6 per cent is not attractive, even when that limitation means fair treatment of buyers. The Association is capable of unlimited expansion and we are making good progress, but I have no hope of great success against 15 to 25 per cent competition until human nature changes.
If the writer of the article referred to will run down the facts in cases of misrepresentation, he will be in need of them that the home buyer has been persuaded by unscrupulous agents, sometimes white and sometimes not, to unintentionally harm the home buyer. This soon results in default, second and third mortgages and all sorts of costs, ending in loss of the property.

When we contemplate the type of young women who are pouring from our high and normal schools each year, without basic moral instruction, we can only hope; for hope we must.
They are intellectually instructed, but Spiritually illiterate.
Nannie Burroughs is training the heart along with the hand. The Bible and the hymn book are as much in daily requisition as any other text book.
Nannie Burroughs' Appeal
Miss Burroughs is sending out a race wide and nation wide appeal for help to restore the principal dormitory of her school, and for Girls, recently destroyed by fire.
But first a word about Nannie Burroughs—what manner of woman in she—one should attempt to form a family whose a dynamic personality brings things to pass. Her name would force itself among the first and foremost. Our pioneer women are few.
Under Own Steam
The fairer sex usually builds upon the foundation laid by men. We would like to have a woman of dependence in colored women—a dependence both of sex and race. But occasionally our women break loose from these traditional handicaps and become independent. Lucy Lane built up Haines Institute, of Augusta, Georgia, which合謹ously holds its place as an outstanding fitting school for boys and girls, a capita of the Presbyterian Church.
Miss Mary Bethune, of Daytona, Florida, commands national attention for her mighty constructive work in
Madam Walker and Madam Malone have built up the most imposing and successful business institutions, operat-
ing a vast business basis, of which the race can bear.
National Training School
The National Training School for Women and Girls is as much the outfit of the University of Fort Burroughs as the Tuskegee Institute was the projected shadow of Booker T. Washington, . . . Juded, she exhibited her work. Dr. Washington planted his school in the heart of the South, where the pressure of need was manifest and I recall being in attendance on the Business League, in the city of Louisville, some decade and a half ago. She had had the tenacity to announce that she was going to establish a school for girls in the National Capital. With the support of the president, I suggested that Washington was already fully supplied with every type of school known to the pedagogical and certain, with almost Lutheran defiance: "Even if the schools were as thick as the tiles on the houses, I am going to plant my school in the midst of right early. And indeed she did.
Fifteen years of operation proves that there is no more useful institution in the national capital, and more useful in the cities where it is held or commands greater approval and esteem. The National Training School for girls does not duplicate any phase of educational work in the national capital, and millions of dollars annually upon the education of the colored population of over one hundred thousand souls. Howard University offers a range of programs to leave off and complete the flower of knowledge from root to top flower, and yet there is ample room for forms of education which neither the one nor the other is cultivated to do. Private Schools Despite the wonderful expansion of public high schools and the growth of universities during the past three or four decades, there is still a need in the nation numerous private finishing schools for girls. These are usually for the more wealthy and cultured classes, who do not wish their children to be exposed to the proximity with the common touch.
There is doubtless need for a similar type of school for an increasing number of our colored students, for a long time at a high grade finishing school for girls, in the city of Washington, where the chief stress of emphasis should be laid upon the fine family charm of the school, the college curriculum, would meet a long standing and deeply felt want. In traveling throughout the country, I have seen families of colored families have girls and money without knowing what to do with either. A high priced private school, such as the one at the University, should indicate witness numbers and finer charm would serve to complete the educational circle.
Old Fashioned Virtues
But I am moving far ahead from Nannie Burroughs and her work. Her school is not intended for girls of fast pace, but for those who are a career. Nannie Burroughs is a matter of fact woman, and deals with matter of free girls in a matter of fact way. She does chief stress of empathy and virtues of goodness and usefulness.

THE MASTER
- Picture 5. Here is a picture of William (Bill) Elk at 11 o'clock Monday night, August 30th when he arrives home from the convention, absolutely broke, having spent a year's savings.
* The Bible, Bath and Broom is her purpose and method with eptonic completeness. By her own character and effort must make her way through an unfriendly world. This is not merely a paper motto but is translated into the daily rhythm of her school. A visitor to the National Training School for Girls is livelily impressed with the cleanliness and the warmth of her walk throughout the whole institution.
Discipline Strict
The girls are neatly and becomingly dressed. There are no extravagant displays or extremes of contrast, but the girls are prompt and kind, with kindness is prompt and cheerful. One finds here as he seldom finds elsewhere a genuine moral and spiritual atmosphere, Respect for others, cultural preservation, moral and natural. One sits and listens to the good old songs of Zion or the more lively evangelical ditties as they well from the darkest of the shadows, with the same deep emotional fervor as moved their grandfires and dames in the darker days of slayery. Here the Bible is still the book
Service, Not Servants
No, it is not true! Nannie Burroughs does not prepare girls for servants, but for service—service in their lives. She is a servant in other people's homes, if they must seek such employment, service in the broader arena of the world's trade. There are no flappers in Nannie Burroughs' school; for this let us give thanks. You can never build the womanhood of a strong and sterile woman, but you can stillillness spells death to the home. Or, for a return to the simple life and homely virtues of our mothers and grandmothers. I am old fashioned. I believe in the basic values and virtues of womanhood that have made the human race what it is today, as they were handed down through grandmothers and mumsy dress of the past few years may indeed lead to a superior form of combine life, but I am too far spent in the race is running a tremendous risk.
Spiritually Illiterate
Nannie Burroughs secures a discipline and a morale which our public schools need. When we begin to teach the type of young women who are pouring from our high and normal schools each day, about basic moral instruction, we must. They are intellectually instructed, but spiritually illiterate. They are naturally recognized for white youth, but for our young people, who for a large part are without social setting or home re-enforcement, the outlook is hamburgant. Upon meeting the teachers of these schools, but it inhien in the system. How to impart intellectual knowledge with intellectual knowledge as part of our regular scholastic program constitutes a question which is engaging the serious attention of our wist education. Can there be a moral pedagogy without a religious background? The answer is awarded with anxiety. In the course of learning the heart along with the head. The Bible and the hymn Joek are as much in daily requisition as any other
Scotia And Spellman
There are several girls schools scattered through the South. South Seminary is in Atlanta, are among the best of the class. These institutions offer a variety of opportunities to develop the womanhood of the race. Their good work do follow. The Negro women of Memphis Barroughs' school is the first attempt by one of our own women to build up a school for the specific development. Negro womanhood is the key to success in deserving to rank as an educator of originality and resuscitating faith.
Ir Original
Miss' tormentors is nothing if not original. There is no speaker on the American platform who can excel her in quintet, piquet, original, homely and original. She strikes that strikes home and brings the response: Her moral earnestness and religious zeal command universal appreciation and response. She makes the writes appeal to the Negro race and indeed to the nation. She wishes to replace: the building destroyed by fire and substitute a better one in its place. It requires upwards of a hundred thousand dollars for the replacement.

Long before the era of one place bathing suit, Fred Douglass, the first swimming instructor, saw few simulators for a hunk of terrina down near Annapolis and for lack of a better moniker its been dubbed Highland Beach.
The signing of the lease went down in history with other great leaders, including the Declaration of Independence and the signing of Dempsey Wills contract.
The town was incorporated and handed down to the descendants of the first inhabitants who in turn have pledged themselves to carry the town on its own progressed with the rapidity of a small crawling backward on wet asphalt.
Some 20 years ago there were only 29 homes in the whole town and now before the first child born there can grow a mustache there are 31 and a possibility of another child built before the next Centennial.
Factories and industry flourish. The amount of waterpower used there weekly if gathered in one room would cause a thimble to overflow.
Business is booming. You can get a room in the modern department stores where you want providing you the keeper three months notice.
The efficient street cleaning department collapsed from a severe case of incerta.
So healthful in the surrounding country that the residents have to give a fake address in order to take out an insurance policy.
They got together there and elected a group of town commissioners just to give somebody a legitimate excuse to wear a high silk hat.
One gentleman who talked louder than the rest was elected mayor proving some people will be a mayor or anything.
On Inauguration Day they covered the street with lapping. An exaggerated report says nearly 15 yards of bunting was used.
On this great day the chief-of-police put on a clean shirt and has been confined to his bed ever since suffering from over exposure.
Most of the people in Highland Beach come from Washington. When comes to wiping up a stain just a touch between the two towns. The only difference is that the folks actually eat in Highland Beach.
There is one redeeming feature about Highland Beach and that is the fact that if you can't trace your scars back, you can Dutch Trader you can't go on it.
There sloping downward, a vast expanse of golden sand, checked with sun light and shadow, through which nodding grass peeps to welcome the infinity of the dust kissed by the gentle waves of the Chesapeake bay as it drifts slowly by with a death like silence on beaten by the angered warrior hellows in the land, though it were striking back at the rumbling thunder which disturbed its rest lies Highland Beach. But you are not for the likes of you and me.
If we lowly beings dare but dip our bouncy包围 tug boards into these halfway waters without an airplane, we will be commissioned will be brought down on our heads and we will be fined ten germ collectors for unauthorized the three-fourth water that God allowed to flow past Highland Beach.

North Carolina Lady Says She Had An Awful Time With Indigestion, TillShe Took Black-Draught.
Pilot Mountain, N.C.—"For several years I suffered with a bad case of chronic indigestion," says Mrs. Sam C. Iman, of this place. "I had bad spells with my stomach. At times I had severe pain in my right side. My stomach would get upset and I would have an awful time. It seemed like everything I ate disagreed with me. I was in pretty bad shape.
"My husband had been using Theodore's Black-Draught for some time for indigestion. He had spells of it too, so he suggested that I try Black-Draught. I took some from his box, just to see if it would help me, and I found it was the very thing for my trouble. It was my greatest deal of good. My condition was a chronic case of indigestion and by getting relief from this, I found my general health was much better.
"We keep Black-Draught in the house all the time. Whenever I find I need it, I take several doses and thus avert a bad spell of indigestion. It is a splendid medicine and I am glad to say so." Sold everywhere. NC-173

The Return Of The Sheik Of Harlem
He had sent Avon to Tuskegee but expected that since his son had gone there to learn agriculture he would apply his knowledge during the summer months. As Avon had exercised his talent for resting at school also, his knowledge of farming was almost forgotten that he was a pillar of the Messiah Baptist church, at some exhibition of his son's total lack of information of the sciences of farming as taught at the world's best indiana
Having made a conquest of the young country belles in his northwood belles, he padded out that certain women punch older than himself were willing to pet and fondle him and who was always in need of pocket money and a hog for flattery, met them more than halfway, and sent his female protectors made a mistake and abused her husband to catch. Avon sitting down to a meal with several of his female protectors the cornbread and middling he had consumed for his supper. The husband's vigorously expressed that who was quietly boarding the S.10 (last train out of Wootton for the day) just as the gentleman was getting involved in New York. Avon's training at Tuskegee kept him from allowing his mouth to fall out during the course. Assuming his most bored and haughty air, he stood and watched the throngs passing to and fro, intent on their business as only New York
Drawn by his magnetism a Red Cap spoke to him and Avon asked him where he could go. He immediately conducted him to the subway and telling him to get off at 135th street and walk straight ahead to 133rd street left for a job. He scribbled on a card in his hand. When Avon reached Harlem, he was noticed at once. The block of 135th street to which he was sent joins 133rd street. Here four five story tenements tower in a long unbroken line, making the street resemble a canyon. On the first floors, there are three restaurants, 3 groceries, 3 churches, 4 restaurants, and couple of fish dealers. Below the street level are three cabarets, where 17 white men and women sit. They carefully leaving all their valuables except their favorite liquor at home. This they carry under their arms in brown paper parcels. In the back, a couple from Virginia sell fried chicken almost exclusively, and like the Italian, they have only one ambition, so sell enough chicken to sell another chicken.
Into this environment Avon metdied like a chameleon. In three weeks he was in town and end of the block. In Harlem each block is a little city. Negroes live and die without going further than one block from home. One hunts in the woods and another hundred thirty third, in the East is a market place. One can buy even his most intimate apparel from a store. He can buy a cart the material for his dinner. Avon found employment, food and amusement, all in the same block. His first job was working in one of the stores. He met ming white women explained about

this wonderful eyes and debated whether or not he was a Persian or an Arab. In teaching him, he engaged him to put on a song, and overhearing a remark from one of the slimming white women in a shack, he shook a shack's costume. In two years Avon Myles was the talk of Harlem. Dazed by the slimming white women in his shack, myles who conceive in their minds usually shallow and uncultivated, an adoration of these bright plummed birds of paradise. Avon forget all of the precepts of the honest training given him back in his little home, and the reaction of these silly women but their money, their bodies, and sometimes the clothes of their backs, when he needed money to satisfy his selfish
Accustomed however to the stable of somewhat meagre favor of his hard-working community, Avon did not want to be the center of New York. Little did he reck that his last running of favor was due to his extraordinary beauty and that Harlan favorite reigned. One morning about three years after he arrived in New York, Avon awoke to find himself sash job, sons female admirers of the class he prefers from which he maintained as a refuge when his numerous "Broadads" closed in on him. Ah! you are saying, the Prodigial son, returned to his father's house." But, as, gentle reader, such is not the case. Avon arose and taking one of his avenues, having preceded fifteen dollars on it (it cost sixty five), stepped jauntily out on Lenox avenue and was himself set to have intervals for several months, having in the meantime won a couple of hundred dollars at cards, one day he decided to go to New York toazzle the eyes of his former cronies.
Lying on his narrow cot (for your Harlom sheikh wastes no money on his lodgings, he is so sedentary in his life that he would dazzle the eyes and ears of "cotton folk" with his wardrobe and his tales of New York, the great city of New York, he had numinated he had met no one from his home town. He did not know that several young people from Wooten had come to New York city and moving in a different strata of society than Avon frequented had never met him. They had been asked by him to be so thoroughly had Avon hidden himself in Harlom's underworld that they could not find him. So Avon, as a mole, returned home, was (due to better train service) two hours closer to New York than when he left. Filled with concern, you saw that the water tank from which he had departed was now accompanied by a nent frame station. As he left, the once dirt road was now a sandy, tar base automobile road. When he reached his father's house he found it no longer a farmhouse in the center of a thriv
Kind reader, it would be cruel to dwell on Avon's suffering at length, but he expected it to be, but his father's welcome. "The old man was glad to see his son, but informed him that most of the farm had been sold and that dad was now a Realtor. The old man was glad to an hour or two after his return, a girl whom Avon had not designate, that most of the farm had been sold, she dashed up to his door in a sporty roadster and invited him to drive around the village to see the farm. Avon complied and in the course of the drive met Dr. Nate Bushel whom Avon had once publicly laughed to his father about the questions about Ne'r. York that Avon couldn't answer, that Avon doubted himself that he had been there. And so it went on for weeks. Avon was invited to hear this one's five tube radio, to drive to the litter garden, to organize, to organizing. He discovered that dad owned a big seven passenger Chrislew and was by way the unofficial owner of himself "small potatoes." In Wootton.

The writer compliments himself that today ten years he is able and confident to work with confidence and good, the imutes and the officials. I believe it is to my credit that I never betrayed a confidence directly and met me directly or abet any plan or conspiracy that might be termed detrimental to the institution.
contrary I believe that I have given the proper kind of advice on numerous occasions that have frustrated plots that would have been for the participants and the institution. In doing so and keeping such a good conspiracy in mind for myself I proved myself better inmate and my consciences ever tells me that I am a better man. Certainly, in spite of my ten years of experience I would pursue the same course.
The writer who had been previously known, may say it my imagination, that I was such had traversed the breadth and width of America, from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from Asia, and that I had been within the vale of the law on many occasions and it was no surprise at least to the writer when I arrived at the garden's eight months, several "detainers" from other towns were received at the prison and of course working right in the garden's office they were secret to me. Ordinarily when such a detainer is received against a prisoner that prisoner is removed and the one who is ingratiated such a good will may be possibly escape and a special surveillance is placed over him. At this time I was ingratiated with officials who ever and while they might have been justified in doing so they felt no uneasiness over me and the on-going situation had plenty of money I, in common with thousands of others, had let the "easy" money slip through my fingers, and that the old sayings "new way easy go."

dollars annually. What can they learn
from this experience? How can they

First, and basic to all other improvement,

WHAT IS A BUDGET?-Any budget is a plan for future spending. The family budget, the budget of the manu- perature, the budget of the United States Government, each dealing with very different amounts of money, are all the same in principle. The budget of a BUDGET?-No authority can supply a budget ready made. There is no such thing as a standard budget, a 'one bed' budget, a spending a family has its own number of children. It may help to know what other people do and to compare one spending plan with others, but each family has its own peculiar needs, its own aims and hopes, its own dif- ficulties and responsibilities. A good budget has its own number of three children and an income of $2,500 a year might be a very poor plan for another family living in the number of children, and the same income. husband's big Cadillac accompanied by his little daughter on struction staged by her husband the night of Avon's departure had awakened a new respect for him and night their home was a happy one.
After four or five weeks of disillusionment Avon prepared to go back to New York once more, as he saw that he was no longer the king of his ho-roost. His father persuaded him to remain and offered him a job in the realty business. Avon tried not to get his eagerness be seen when he accepted the place but he was glad to remain for he had learned that every crossroads in America offers opportunity to the Negro of today and that New York will soon be only a Museum place and unique business center. He realized just what the sacrifice by his old father was meant for,—the building up of the small places in this country. An opportunity to be a pioneer, for the Negro race of today is pioneering. Building and blazing a path of race pride and race consciousness. Carrying the gospel of service to the remote places. For this the older generation toils and sends the young people of today to school.
Realizing that five years of his life had been wasted in the fleshpots, Avon Myles took up the work his father gave him and in his heart thanked God that he was yet able to do his part in the building of this Negro race which shall one day stand forth complete, true and clear, a glorified Ethiopia.

She succeeded where others went of the whole matter is this,—Gertrie I is spirit of true sportsmanship—the ability of a spirit woman particularly need to cultivate had "sports," using the word in its limited hly for prizes alone, and thus lose the rest, that come from the game in itself.
And Gertrie Ederle is our latest deut.
We women have done it again. Quite recently, one of our number accomplished a difficult feat which only five men up to that time had succeeded in doing. She not only did that but she broke the time record also. Of course, as every one of us refers to Gertrude Ederle who was the mother of our other day.
As women we are proud and triumphant. Even the this sex of our has convincingly demonstrated that we are capable of making sense of life, there are still a few dull-witted, pile-headed, narrow-minded males left for whom we welcome additional proof. Miss Ederle has just presented them another
But, after all, this young girl's feat is not so very interesting when you stop to think that the quality of endurance was a decidedly large element in her success. The female sex has excelled in endurance many, many years. has been our chief weapon of life, the construction of endurance has been as important as man's skill and strength.
So, Miss Ederle showed the acquirement of no new power, particularly. The greater part of her task lay in the management of the endurance, sex in lunge measure. However, prone as I am to throw my high hat in the air whenever vomnaink adds to the laurels she has already won, what I feel proudest of is not the mere accomplishment of the feat itself as the spirit in which she took her success. To my mind this is the greatest. Without it, she is not important than what one is.
As I read this young girl's own story of her experiences during that long, arduous battle with a vicious sea, I was particularly struck with her description of how she felt when she set foot on the English shore. She says:
Wanted more than anything else right then to get back to the tug and Pon and Margaret and all the rest who had done so much for me since I came over nearly two months ago.
"Of course, I'm glad it all over wil and I am proud to have made it happen," she said. "But than had been done before, but I looked when it comes to figuring how I can ever repay all those who were so kind and good to me during my training and the swim and particularly Lillian Cannon. She's the best sport ever."
Nature's feeling, telling me, relation at her success, her first experience generally given to those who had helped her. Even amid the thunderous applause that greeted her from thousands of onlookers, she was eager to return at once to the tug to share the joy of her victory with those dear to her. How many of us would instead have gladly tarried a while and selfishly basked in the plaudits
It isn't easy to include others in our glory, our successes, our triumphs. It isn't easy to turn aside from the flattering adulation of the many for the private felicitations of the intimate few. Yet, this 16-year-old girl won out in this test of her real greatness with the same high courage with which she conquered the English Channel. And of the two, I rate this the greater achievement.
Indeed, one might say her attitude as a whole was unusually level-headed, sensible and admirable. Her chief satisfaction seemed to come from the vindication of her own confidence in herself rather than in the noisy enthusiasm of the multitudes. She delighted more in the fact that the work and training of long months had brought to expected and logical results than that she had succeeded where others had failed.
The point of the whole matter is this,—Gerrulty Eclerc seems to have the spirit of true sportsmanship—the ability to play the game for its own sake and not to be so for its own purpose. And thus is a very particularly need to cultivate. They are notoriously bad "sports," using the word in its fixed sense. They play feverishly for prizes alone, and thus lose the rest, the joy, the development that come from the game in itself.
But, we are learning, even the slowly. Every now and then we demonstrate this. And Gerinde Ederle is our latest demonstration.

"All the books approved of nurseries," the young mother reminded. "They are the general understood to instruct a mother the mother part of the time, or at least other children."

I do not expect that following this same plan with regard to the things Lay suggests at the Mothers' Club will give me many good ideas for my baby. I will tell you that I am as told to me, rather than finding the underlying ideas and adapting them to my needs."

Due to Kidney Trouble. Sleeps All Night After Taking Matamel, Mexican Discovery.
Another man made well and ankle wounds. Matamel is shown in the letter just received from Mr. H. B. Wallace, a well-known Trenton, N. J., resident of 45 Chester Street, who says:
"For six months I have not been & well man. I suffered a bad attack something awful, ankles getting puffed out and had constant dizzy spells. A heavy dullness hung over me at all times and I felt pretty rotten no peep no appetite—and worst of all as soon as I'd fall sleep, binge! I had to run to the house to buy a toy or twice, but eight or ten times.
"A nurse told me about the Mexican remedy called Matamel and I have tried it. I feel like a new man—sleep all night, paints and swellings in my mouth and does harm. I tried helped at all—but Matamel is a wonder."

Father Deaver Goes
After more than twenty-five years of faithful services in the St. Augustine Episcopal Parish, the Rev. James N. Deaver has resigned his charge and has accepted a call extended to him by St. Thomas Episcopal Church, Twelfth St. near Lombard street, Philadelphia, Pa.
The Rev. Mr. Deaver announced his resignation last night to the vestry to be effective October 1st. He came here in the public house at the request of the late Dr. John H. Townsend, who at that time and for many years was rector of the church of the Ascension, Kentucky and Pacific avenues. At that time St. Augustine congregation numbered only a few colored communicants who at that time worshipped at the Ascension Church and not one dollar worth of property.
Today the congregation numbers about seven hundred and has property valued at one hundred thousand dollars. It is one of the few colored churches of the Episcopal faith in this country that is self-supporting. More than six hundred persons have been prepared for confirmation by Mr. Deaver.
The St. Thomas Church, to which Mr. Deaver has been elected rector, is the oldest congregation of Negroes in the United States. It was established by Rev. Abselom Jones, the first Negro priest, in 1794, and is a few years older than "Mother Bethel," the first African Methodist Episcopal Church.

Colored People An
By REV. THOMAS J. BRADY (In Our Colored Missions)
In previous articles we have written of the social and political status of the Negroes, of their passive attitude to the lot which is theirs, to the race to the race, to the Church to the race, and now in this fourth section we shall occupy ourselves with the Negro in Holy Orders, that is, with the Negro priest and the Negro Catholic bishop, to the reader a jar, to the reader a jar, to the reader a jar, to the jar arises not from any novelty in the idea of a Negro bishop but rather from the fact that. The Negro priest is of the impression in the reader's soul, even bourgh he or she believe and profess themselves entirely immune of race prejudice. However, permit the reader to the preliminary consideration
18,000,000 Catholics
The Catholic population of the United States is safely at 18 million souls. Catholic Negroes and Catholic Indians are included in this estimate. The Indians, however, are almost a negligible quantity, as far as their num-
If then we take the Catholic population as white and Negro and allow the figure 300,000 in the figure 100,000 to sum total of the Negro Catholics we find that less than two per cent of the Catholic population establishes the Negro ratio. The ratio of Negro Catholics to white Catholics is the ratio of Catholic Negroes to the entire population of 11 million Negroes in the United States is three to every one thousand.
**Something Rotten**
To the man or woman who will give but a moment of study to these figures it must readily appear that, in Shakespearean verse, someone might be clearly and unmistakably it will be understood that a tremendous issue lies open before them, an issue which has reached the height of a chronic nature. Shall we consume the Church? No, not we; and may not any of our readers be so foolhardy. The Church is as true as a hell in her duty and her mis
The trouble is to be sought not in the Church, but in her children. They are at fault. They have sinned against God, and prejudice. "Color Line" ethics (2) and race hatred have been snapping and snarling at Negroes for over three hundred years, they have been the most violent in the spirit of Jesus Christ, "Prudence," when it may not be called anything else but "moral cowardice."
Four Priests
There are four American Negro priests in the United States, four priests from a population of 11 millions. We hear your objection—so we say: four priests from a Catholic population of 300,000, or one Negro from a population of 15,000. Do these figures not bear a message for us? Do they not loudly demand action, clearly defined action, along lines more effective than those we have been follo
Who will stop forward in the name of God and His Church and with one full sweep of the arm wipe out totally hoped that such action will not longer be deferred when the salvation of 11 million souls who most pathetically make their appeal: "Save us. We perish! We cry out. We do. We believe that a single soul is worth more than all the worlds that could be created?"
St. Francis Navier, the living flame of missionary zeal and the epitome of missionary love, he swept the Eastern Seas in his effort to gain souls, simply and, as he thought, adequately answered that were earthly creatures to be found in those lands of the trackless sea, commercial enterprise would hurry there at every risk and peril, and no one would stop to wonder and to question that there was sufficient incentive in the example of merchants and financiers to continue his labor and his guest for souls.
Now, no one doubts but that, if large amounts of money were to be made out of the Negroes, we would have to everyone pushing the other in the scramble to get closest to the now shunned race. Well, there is wealth to be amassed but there are no other ways. Do we write one another? O dear Lord, why say more? Neglect
Surely, no American Catholic will publicly vindicate that which is at the bottom of the great neglect, namely the Catholic Church in our country has a first, and under circumstances, an exclusive duty to her white child. Catholic churches have the mission of the Church, here as everywhere, is to minister to all. To call this doctrine in question is to spurn Christ and to robake the attitude of the Church during two
If the voice of the Church of God, sparkling officially on this grave and unconded question, we must understand the words of American Catholics, we may not argue that there is proof or precedent in the doctrine of the infallible negligence. The obligation to leave no stone unturned to convert every Negro in our land springs not from ecclesiastical law but from divine providence "common to all," the Gospel "to every creature."
Let us remember also that in the matter of saving the souls of the egregious no possessions of your will introduce a legitimate custom, permitting us to continue in our indifference. Custom may not be invoked against the explicit law of God. The duty of custom is the duty of every and every gray, black or white, has

been set by Jesus Christ. It is not the creation of any Pope or bishop—it is of the deposition of once and be perpetuated and handed down till time shall be no more. 100 Priests In Africa
Africa, the Negro's maternal home, has one hundred Negro priests, one recrd, and witness the sorry spectacle of the ecclesiastic Marathon, in which America crawls with priests after 300 years, whilst Africa is not so much a place for numbers and for speed. Africa did not need three hundred years to produce a nation not be subjected to Catholic America has taken the Negro Question seriously to heart, in the manner that Americans usually do not be supposed to be informed that it is high time that we "step on the accelerator and turn on more mission gas" in this matter because we know how suddenly Eternal Rome will send out her order to us to "get busy?"
The writer has no first-hand data concerning what elicited from Rome a "Right about! Face!" order on missionary activities in the Far East. That Rome saw that something was out of joint there all too long, must be clear to all who have read the letter on missions of the late Pope Benedict XV. It is not difficult after reading this letter to justify the following consideration.
Foreign-born priests and foreign-trained priests had been sent as missionaries to the East. There is not the slightest thought of dis-counting the grace of God; however, these missionaries, naturally were poorly equipped in language, they were total strangers, except in theory, to all native customs, they took with them many physical dis-qualifications bred into them by residence in their own country. When any one of these missionaries died at his post of duty or bowed his head before the executioner's ax the place left vacant remained vacant, until it could be filled from Europe. For one reason or the other, seminaries for natives had not appeared on the scene as quickly, nor received the whole-hearted encouragement which Rome was accustomed to and which she expected.
The Apostles, the examples of missionaries of all times, began the mission of the church by the seed of truth, but left the harvesting and perpetuation of the work to native clergy. So-called missionaries did not sanction a contrary custom, the custom of mission priests and bishops holding on interminably to the
As Pope Benedict summed it up the Apostles having gained a victory in one place, traveled on to another, and received the approval of the Apostles that where the Church goes there God also goes with her to abide forever. Where God plants, there He confers every blessing, where He nurtures growth and perpetuation. In a few words, the foregoing consideration means nothing more and nothing less than that the Catholic Church expects that the faithful, in example of the Apostles, establish as quickly as possible a native clergy, and raise up as quickly as possible native priests and native bishops, and bishops must be established and maintained among the Chinese, the Jans, the Indians, the Africans, among all missionary peoples. This is the wish of Church Church. This is the necessity of the United States be exceptions?
Negro Clergy
In advocating an American Catholic Negro clergy, for service among their Negro brethren here in the country, it is important that in a period of probation is desirable and necessary. However, this probation period must have a limit, and in our minds there is no limit to how many times we and overstretched the limitations. Just how many years should be covered by this limitation, no one knows. The circumstances, conditions, individual peculiarities and general welfare must be considered, with eye single to better the life of the Negro in general deprivation. But (and this may never be lost sight of prejudice and "cool line" ought have nothing to say in fixing the time it had anything to say" to
Why Not More Priests?
Why have we not ordained more Negro priests? Why are we still ordained more Negro priests? Why are we still ordained Catholic bishop? Who will need to be told that for 300 years our charges have been made against the Negro? Of the many charges we select two, because they more others, have to do with our question.
The first charge sets the Negro out as a dullard, a numskull, as a person unable to make the required studies and consequently as one debarred by nature from Holy Orders. This charge is an unvarnished calumny on the Negroes wherever found in the United States. We realize that it is so easy and also requires so little courage to make charges about those who are defenseless. But charges prove nothing. We have not as yet seen the proof that by the purpose and design of Heaven the Negro is inferior member of the human family. And, honestly, we do not expect to ever see it. Facts in every day life abound to prove that Negroes are as intelligent as members of any other race, and such facts have been on record for centuries. There have always been Negroes that could grace the company of any group of white men.
The White Man
If the Negro has not advanced everywhere in the United States to a high state of intellectual development, let us lay the blame where it rightfully belongs—at the white man's feet. is it not criminal to deny the white man's enjoyment which the white man enjoys and then to blame him for
not being educated up to the white man's standards? What would we do if we were sold either guns or ammunition, but then shortly afterward accused them of not firing upon the enemy? Why ask the impossible of the Negro? Whenever Negroes or whites present insuperable ignorance both should be debarred from the Holy Land, and Negroes always have been and always will be obtuse whites and obtuse Negroes who never can catch the drift of argument or master a thesis. The Negro will supply their quinqu, but no more.
History
Meanwhile, history tells us about a St. Thomas Aquinas and a sainted Cure de' Ars. In this connection it should not be forgotten that most all our heretics have been accused of a high order, who used that prized gift to wreck God's woe among men.
Second Charge
The second charge, raising the barrier to the priesthood, sets the Negroes out as a race of moral weaklings or worse. Any candidate the priesthood, he be black or white, who manifests a positive character, presents no hope of a thorough reformation, can not be tolerated in the sanctuary.
It will always remain true that a priest's efficiency is never greater than this matter, which has its mark on the soul, makes the candidate unfit. In this matter there are not, in contrast, two opinions amongst Catholics... What we, however, are contending against, the general should be ruled out of the sanctuary by a common and unwarranted assertion that they are unable to measure up to the one of the Church on celibacy; Shr.
The Negro is no more immoral than the members of any other race. That he has offended, is true, as an African, is true, as an offended. If because Negroes are sinned, all Negroes must be debarred from Holy Orders, that they logically are not offended, because many whites have sinned no less gravely. Then, where shall we look to for our priests? Collective worship is the Negro race. What is required of us is that we, first of all, be just and, then, that we throw into the church the sacrament in the church for the specific purpose of soul-reformation and elevation. Have they no charges so outrageously leveled against the Negro, a charge that relates to him helplessness, more than to deny the efficacy of the Sacraments and the power of God's grace, and to set up, in the Negro's case, the priestess of Calvinistic predestination.
What this last means bishops and priests will fully understand. Let it not be forgotten that there are Negroes of both sexes as pure as the white, whose male and female morally as the ill, and the fragrance of whose lives is like the perfume of the violet. These Negroes are not in some Utopia either; they are right here in these United States.
Deplorable
Rome's moral condition at the coming of the Apostles was deplorable. Did the Apostles look upon the earth as they 'take cold feet' at the sight of rotten Roman society? No. They both dared and did things. They defied the moral deodandes prevailing in the world, and knew their duty. They knew the power of Christ's cross and the strength of God's grace. From out of the earth, they called on their priests and their bishops, and God knows, and every one who has read the lives of the saints and martyr's knives, that these did not perish. They sacrificed the graves of our day fall us, if we had the faith of the Apostles.
No Bishops
It is strange, and frequently included by both Catholic and Protestant Negroes that a race of Negroes held a greater membership of about 300,000 souls, and after 300 years of missionary effort among them, has not a single Catholic black missioner and but four Catholic black missionaries. It is easy to perceive the growing perplexity of the Negro Question because of many factors, not the least of which is the uneasiness of the tribute by which the Negro's complete religious enunciation, starting with the sacred tonsure and then graduating to the ecclesiastical office and dignity denied.

WEEKLY SERMON
WEEKLY SERMON
"Glorying In The Cross"
Abstracts from an address by Mrs. P. L. Ingram, for the Woman's Board,
National Baptist Convention
But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom the world hath been crucified unto me, and Into the world. Galatians 6: 14.
So many people glory in every thing else but the cross and religious things. Many glory in the homes, wonderful cars, a good time, and all manner of things, and ignore the cross of Calvary, where the precious blood of the Son of God flowed freely as the price of our redemption.
I know what the modern mind says about the cross, that it is vulgar but a simple one, and I know that it is vulgar. It was at the cross that men saw sin in its most vulgar form. The sweetest, kindest, loveliest, most gentle human being that ever lived, a man that more than all others went about doing good—this man, the vulgar crowd willed to the cross. This is the man who makes the cross, and makes the world wonder of it.
We are asked to tell you that this teaching about the cross and the blood is coarse and offensive to refined and cultured ladies and gentlemen. We are asked to talk about the life, the example, the ethics of the wonderful teachings of the Chariot, but not to say, knowing about the death of the refined sense of ladies and gentlemen is offended by the story of the cross. Would it be out of place to remind such ladies and gentlemen; that we cannot come to Calvary, to God, seeking for pardon, booted and bejeweled, in silks and broadcloth? If we are to find any recently in the way of the Father, it is only because we come as left rule, sloughers,
Paul vigorously rebuked those who went aside from the doctrines of the cross. When we rebuke others we must take care to go right our way, and not to go wrong. Paul rises to warmth when he thinks of the opponents of the cross. He no sooner touches the subject that he glows and hurms. Yet Paul had much in which he could have glorified. Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew monk, and an apostle of Jesus, consecrating the church, touching the righteousness which is in the law blameless. Yet he turns from all this, and he turns away from glory in what he had written and the work he had done for the Master, and he picks out the sufferings and death of Jesus and says, "glory most high." As for Jesus, I am going to accept its saving power. I am going to live in the light of its blessed teachings. The cross is God's call to service. Do you hear its call? I am persuaded that there are many young people whom God has called to missionaries and that they should be called to help us to hear the call and heed the call and glory only in the cross.

Buying And Financing Homes In Baltimore
A Series of Articles On Real Estate by President John R. Car v. 5 of The Home Maker's B. & L. Association
'Financing Your Home
One of the most difficult parts of the home buying transaction, and the one which has the most pitfalls concealed in it, is the financial part. I have heard it said that the most solid basis of financial security is land, and the most noble animal is the horse, but it seems almost possible for a man to lend in and keep straight. If this is true the real estate doctor who does keep homes in the more honor, and colored people of Baltimore have paid a heavy tribute to some who have not dealt fairly.
When a man has enough cash to pay for his house in full everything is easy, all that he has to guard against is an excessive price but when, as in most cases, part of the purchase money must be borrowed, and especially when nearly all of it has to be; then there are, fat pickings for the "syster." Beginning with the simplest form of plucking, adding a thousand dollars or so to the price the seller is willing to accept, and pocketing it difference, you can go on down the scale three second and three mortgages discounted, one third to one-half, business, renewal commissions, fees and such until you are lost in a swamp, and in some cases your house gone.

"Wright Quality"
Mortgage House
In simple terms this is the way the business works out. You agree to buy a house for a certain figure and being unable to pay the whole cost with your own money, you find some one, or your lawyer does it for you, either the seller or some one else, a Savings Bank or Building Association, to lend you what you need. To secure the repayment of this money you execute what is called a mortgage in court, by which you ed a mortgage, a document placed agree to make certain payments of interest and principal, failure to make them giving the one who lends the money the right to take the property away from you and sell it to set his money. If you make all the promised payments the mortgage is "released" and the lender has no further claim upon you.
Loan Agencies
The amount which careful people will lend in such cases runs from one half to two-thirds of the value of the property, and there is so much difficulty in finding a lender, Lawyers and real estate dealers, authorised to charge a small fee for securing the loan, and many of the Building Associations "houses" for loans. The Savings Bank does not pay charges but are very careful in making loans. Their transactions, as these are quite simple, and are limited to persons with a fair degree of wealth and experience. The trouble comes from the lack of certain and experienced. We shall show in our next article how they fare, only too often.
a wonderful personality that attracted. Miss Jolly with the wife of the headmistress, and boys of the neighborhood, built up a remarkable business. Encouraged at the success of his mails effort Mr. Meeker was persuaded to help with the result that additional orders were bought up to assure adequate supply for the increasing trade of this pumper roadside manger. The business extended under the supervision of this remarkable man who during this period managed to keep his house work done as well as his business. He would deal as much as a hundred dollars a day. Finally, different financial arrangements were made that helped her to capitalize her venture.

New York City—A. Philip Randolph, General Organizer of the neighborhood of Sleeping Bear, issued the following statement today: "It is a result of the endorsement given from such leaders as the National Federation of Women, and the Urban League, the spirit of the men in the Brotherhood of Organizers' organization's history. The results of one week of battles, among the men prior to our graduation, the Company Union Board indicate that the great majority of Polish porters and maids reorganized the Company Union."

The Negro youth has two problems in face in the industrial field. Learning a trade securing employment, the great problem of training the Negro industrial, now thrown upon a few industrial schools, would be capable solutions. In some sections are more disposed to accept trained colored mechanics in some of the schools, and wherever this is some, the colored man makes good; but the great problem of training and directing colored youths trains with the industrial schools.
The demand made by restricted immigration for skilled men and the need for a larger and larger number of colored youths to seek industrial education. One of the results of restricted immigration for skilled men is the supply of skilled and unskilled labor, tradesmen and mechanics that formerly enabled northern employers to fill their vacancies by the restrictions imposed by the present law. If this emergency it was necessary to find a substitute, so colored labor was employed. The demand for colored labor of all sorts, especially those skilled in trades and handicrafts, has opened a new industrial opportunity. The demand for colored trades and compositions requiring skilled and partly skilled labor. The demand is limited only by the supply. Workforce conditions, whatever the demand, are not the same. As the daily wage in these trades range from $8 to $14 per diem and even more, it can be seen what an opportunity for youth in the field of industrialism.
Industrial schools report that their graduates and under-graduates are in demand in the business, construction, and trade schools. Virginia, Virginia, which maintains one of the most practical schools of business in the country, reports that from the bricklaying school to the school has this summer, seventeen men, graduates and under-graduates, working in construction at a wage of $15 per hour. These men are working for construction companies on high class business and apartment constructions that involve mechanical work. To involve instructors report that the men they employ are measuring up to expectations, both in production and excellence of workmanship. Both instructors report that they are effort to provide training opportunities in the trades. Her courses are practical and designed to meet trade conditions and requirements. Tradesmen trained at this school are in great demand on account of their efficiency and the very quality of their work. Those contemplating taking a trade should make application early.
Wheeling, W. Va.—Leading citizens of this town plan an own your home campaign following the public's call to action.

GOOD MORNING JUDGE
The Afro Court Reporter
"Some surprises are 'pleasant,' but Butter Haywood, 618 Philp Street, met as unpleasant a surprise in couch in Northwestern police station.
Haywood, who is a married man, had been making extra calls on Miss Florence Johnson. The calls were made in a little loveness in the 1100 block of North Mount street and when the girl said the pair got noisy and found themselves in the Northwestern station. "Judge," said Miss Thompson, who wanted him to go home with me as she always do, and we quarreled. "Five dollars and costs" said the Murante, and Haywood looked relieved. But this surprise was short lived, for o his surprise, a lady said, "I'll pay that line. Judge." And then she gave Haywood a look which caused big drops of perspiration to gather on his forehead. If Mrs. Haywood did what she looked like she was going to do as she left for a safer and more comfortable.

Haywood Gets An Unpleasant Surprise
♦ Valentine was cruising around in a taxi longing for companionship when he saw Mrs. Gertrude Conway, and although he did not know the lady, she invited him in. ♦ She invited an other also and Valentine found himself explaining matters to the Magistrate. Sunday morning. ♦ Well, Judge. it was just like the lady says. I saw her and asked her did she want to go out for a nice time and when she said, "no." I asked her could I come around to her home. ♦ Yes, I did. ♦ You don't mean it? ♦ said the Magistrate. "Well, your telling the truth like that is so refreshing that I am going to let you go. Don't it again?"

There is no need of staying up nights worrying about the landlord when you can own your own home so easily. What is renting a "for sale sign" is likely to be placed on the house at any time, which will cause him to be embarrassed.
When the roof is leaking, and you tell the landlord about the leak, you are usually told the old story: "I'll send some one to look after it next week."
Next week never comes—until the time arrives to collect your rent—and that if the day happens to be clear the landlord always springs another subject.
He can remedy this condition by allowing you to make a small down payment on these homes he is offering for sale in the very best locations in the city.
The words under this picture will make you a home owner if you will call at his office and meet his easy requirements.

Why Advertiser Weekly Ne
Why Advertisements In Weekly Newspapers Pay
By HENRY F. ARNOLD
In Baltimore and many other large cities there are hundreds of empty store rooms. According to the majority of trade journals, Business is is normal. There is no reason why we find so many empty store rooms. One of the main reasons why we find a number of empty store rooms is because in many cases the former operators of the business which once preserved in an empty store room were in great monster "prejudice." This writer has been reliably informed that a certain department store, that for years has done a "land office" business among a particular group of women, crying "blue murder" on account of dull business. The department store in question once did a lucrative business among the women who came down to shop with their bonnets and aprons, bringing with them uncle Sam's' good dollars. Today the department store does not same faces that once was the backbone and sinew of their business.
Why this department store does not see these faces of former days and wants to make a class distinction, not only with its colored patrons—it used class distinction among a certain group of whites. The hear's is true, there is one hope for the department store in question — that

hope is to drop its prejudice, and buy
space in such journals as is known
to be the spokesman for the class
that the store has driven away.
The great game of advertisement
has made it possible for the pros-
pective buyer to buy through the
malls.
If Miss Annie Jones is barred from any store because of her race or standing in society, Miss Jones knows that daily and weekly, the unprejudiced advertiser is bidding her spend her hard earned coin with him, and the fallen up in the head of the department store that is charged with discrimination against its former patrons, and which is charged with being prejudiced against colored newspapers, will inevitably fall upon heads of many other officers, police officers in city and elsewhere. Uncle Sam has never made a set of dollars for no particular group or class. The advertiser who is so prejudiced against the colored paper that he refuses to buy space is headed for the road of bankruptcy, clearly that class of officers that catered to the public knows it.
The AFRO-AMERICAN reaches a large number of prospective buyers. The majority of AFRO-AMERICAN readers want the best and are willing to pay for the and are willing to the business managements to refuse to buy space simply because of the class of people the AFRO reaches?

FEMALE "RED GRANGE' DELIVERS ICE HERE
Mrs. Harriet Trual Only "Ice Woman," Owns Own Business
HAS ESTABLISHED ROUTE AND, 115 CUSTOMERS
Started One Year Ago To Get Out Of The Wash Tub She Says
A certain little town in Illinois may boast of one now famous "Red Grange," but it has nothing on Baltimore far.
We can go it one better and lay claim to a female "Red Grange," in Mrs. Harlet Trull, of 1212 Whitelock street, who not only carries ice from the wagon to the customer's door, but who owns, her own business as well. "Only Ice Woman"
Mrs. Trull is the only woman that we know of who actually works on an ice wagon, and she is the chief of the northwest section of the city, her strong and cheery voice is heard calling "ICE" to her customers. Her customers know her voice, her color, her energy, which qualities have been responsible for the spread of her business, which has grown, in one year from zero to its present proportions.
She started a little more than a year ago with one cake of ice and no customers, to a regular route that now includes one hundred fifteen patrons, and demands twenty cakes of ice. Mrs. Trull tweets twenty-five cakes.
And these same cakes of ice hold no terror for our female "Red orange," of women of the health physique, and while her male helpers may lag behind with a small cake of ice on her days, she with the greatest of ease steels the largest of ease and pierces it lightly along to its destination. She often ignores the tongs for small pieces, and says that her hands are developing to the point where they do not feel the chill. "I started this business," said Mrs. Truall, "to get out of the wash tub." And "to keep her health and to keep her health, such probability of her returning to that unpleasant method of earning a living. Her ice business is growing, but in addition to that she spends square moments, and coal and wood in the winter.
TWO DEATHS MARK HEAT WAVE HERE
Much Suffering Reported As Result Of Hot And Oppressive Weather
One death and several prostrations have been reported as a result of the hot wave which descended upon Baltimore Wednesday and fasted throughout the city.
The death was that of William Neuman, who succumbed in the engine room of the steamship Ericson, a Baltimore-Philadelphia vessel, as it pulled into the local port. Thursday night.
While employed by the Fairfield Farms Farmry, Leroy DeCorsay, Pierce street, was prostrated with the heat and removed to the University Hospital in a serious condition. Saturday, an efforts by authorities to restrain DeCorsay proved little and he died several hours later.
Heat Oppressive
Although thermometers have registered higher temperatures here since late September, generally agree that the July hot spell caused more suffering due to humid conditions.
Thousands sought relief in parks and open spaces and in the congested districts many people spent the entire day strolling steps and other improvised sleeping places. During the early hours Wednesday night many grown-ups took advantage of the sprinklers which the city pro-grammed to water the pools of the city, and the swimming pool at Druld Hill Park recorded big attendances.

MASONICS CALL EXCURSION OFF
Excursion of the local Masons to Cambridge planned by the local entertainment committee has been called off, according to announcement made this week, but effort was made to secure a boat of the B. C. and A. or Tolchester line.
Officials of these companies, however, referred the Masons to Captain Brown, whose steamer Favorite, accommodates 300 more passengers.
Arrangements were made to use the Steamer Favorite around about August 30th or 31st and, near present who would be in attendance, to dispose of it to the Masons.
Although Captain Brown's charge for his larger boat was only two-thirds of that of what the committee had planned, it is reported that negotiations have fallen through and the excursion will not be given.
