F. Story A fist fight and the calling in of police to prevent "brothers from withstanding each other to their faces" featured a stormy session of the officers and members of the Fulton Baptist church held to elect a successor its late pastor, the Rev. D. G. Willis. The church, which has been without a pastor since the death of the Rev. Willis last spring, requested the deacon board to present the names of two pastors who would be voted upon by the congregation. Three names were taken under advisement and the church was disbanded. Of the large number of ministers who had preached in the country, the former pastor, the Rev. B. F. Jackson, assistant pastor of the B. F. Baptist Church, recently resigned from a Richmond, Va. pastorate; and Dr. Francis Story, a pastorate of Vernon Baptist Convention, were given consideration. Story Frozen Out The Rev. Mr. Story, who had made a favorable impression on the congregation during the revival session, was sentenced by the deacon board. He was frozen out, it was said because of his affiliation with the Western Organization and that he called he would take the church into that faction, which was formed several years ago, when there was a splice in nationalal organization, the names of Rev. Williams and Jackson were offered for consideration. Wanted Fiery Preacher It was during the voting on these two when Deacon Johnson, who was an alleged Story man, attempted to enter the name of that pastor from the clergy. A debate was permitted on the subject by presiding officer, James Pratt, of the Deacon Church, that the Rev. Mr. Story was able to give more "Gravy" with his sermons than the other two pastors. At this point, John W. Henson, the choir leader, church for four months, declared according to testimony that no minister preached harder and stirred up the gation more, gation more, deposition more, Mr. Willis, and when he died he was cursed in his grave. Deacon Uses Fists Witnesses testified Deacon Johnson leaped to his feet and declared that the remark was directed at him and the wound would give him a thrashing. Henson did not repeat the remark, but made another that equally objectionable. Deacon Johnson would give him a starred congregation was aware of what was transpiring. Deacon Johnson had seized Henson by the throat, officers with tussel armor and police separated the pair and police were summoned. Deacon Johnson was pled under arrest and fueled and costs the police Friday morning. The church officials were later notified by the police that no further meetings for the election of a pastor could be held without no police department. Members said, Deacon Johnson was recently appointed, having been dropped from the board by Mr. Willis, during his pastorate. Girl Accuses Va.

The ill man said with his sister, "How much do you pay?" queried the man. Judge buy $2 to $4 a week for room, but I board outside," littered Tom. Then Florence came on the stand and told her story.

Mr. Guay Statement The principal of the Bailou for December 30, and his reasons for transferring me from the position, he wrote: "I am sorry to tell you that of teacher of ungraded and incorrigible boys can be the copy of the copy of Dr. Bailou's letter, here enclosed. What Dr. Bailou considers my "far from commonable" attitude is merely a mistake. I believe that the Bailou the simple truth in a straight forward manner. I refused to say that could. I believe that I could. Mr. Bailou because I could not. I respected Mr. Perry's position but not his knowledge that he has neither academically nor professional knowledge of any subject, past injustices, and his antagonistic attitude toward me left no doubt in my loyalty and unfaith in the future. When Dr. Bailou says that my attitude is correct, Supervisors was anything but respectful and courteous. I differ with him. No Substitution As to the Miss Gibbs, principal of the Stevens School, I know that Miss Gibbs had no耐疽性 over me the moment I left her. --- building. Her letters to me, I consider not only disrespectful but an infringement of my rights as a teacher. I admit that my letter to her which Dr. Bailou refers—was evasive because I felt that Miss Gibba had right to tell me what he left her. I deny that it was disrespectful. It may have been unsatisfactory for the evidence showed that because of the presence of two legal phrases "res puta" and "tos judicatum" she did not fully comprehend it. But, she sent me a letter of thanks because it "am-writing to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of December 5, relating to and to thank you for the information contained therein." Aided from her fact that I answered her five facts of her fact, on December 1, on December 5, I also sent her a lengthy letter to December 12 answering that same letter. On December 10, Besides, he informed of the fact that he would have put forth what he considers his "official proof of my conduct." This makes pennily for my offense entirely disrespectful. Dr. Bailou, thus, does not only break my spirit, but to wreck my health, work to which he assigned me undermines the nervous system. Some evidence is necessary if the teacher is to retain a work to which he assigned me. I had performed that work successfully for more than twelve years, and I knew from experience I could never In view of all the circumstances, I must be expected to tell little good may be expected from the continuance of your services as teacher in charges of oral expression to XIII. Accordingly I shall recommend to the Board of Education at its meeting to teach oral expression from teacher of oral expression and dramatics to teacher of ungraded boys, Summer-To-Me school, the same to be effective January 3, 1827.

Gallier, chairman of the local committee and in whose name the banquet tickets were issued, told AFRO reporter Friday that the Bishops had not been barred and had they presented themselves at the hotel Thursday night they would have been seated with the rest of the organization was started in this city in 1923, and that on the following year it had grown so that a national quarterback was established in New York city. The organization began it to work toward the cause of prohibition, regardless of color, and if the men were excluded from the banquet the local committee had nothing to do with it at all. Bishop Clement Speaks Bishop Clement, in his letter to Sherwood, written Thursday night just before he departed for North Carolina, said: "In regard to the conversation over the telephone yesterday, and my留言 to the city write you our unreliability occurrence of the meeting at the Hotel New Willard, I have this to say, you impossible, as I have said to you in my previous session, your unreliability session, as suggested by you without feeling free to attend all sessions, especially when the event emphasized in your letter and the president, Mr. Fred B.

Any discrimination based with un-Christian and un-American "If my presence and interest in the meeting were desired, and if hitherto placed in me the confidence in such discrimination would destroy any influence, whether small or large, in law enforcement in law enforcement and my support of national prohibition will not in the least abate, and I trust that the agent an occasion arise such as the one which I have referred in this letter.

In connection with the "Bishop's Crusade", about a month ago, it was arranged to have a minister of the Episcopal Church, on Sunday afternoon, January 9th, preach at Waters, Bethel, and Ames. Accordingly, Rev. Mr. Waterman, of the Church of the Resurrection, preached most acceptably at Waters, and Rev. Mr. Waterman, of the Messiah, preached, and had a most glorious time at Ames Sunday night. But, Rev. Dr. Wyatt Brown, rector of the largest Episcopal Church in the country, preached at Bethel, at 3 o'clock up to the Church on scheduled time, only to find the doors of the Church locked.

Foreigners Admit However That Engine Is Best In Work At Its Price—Everybody "Drives Left" In England—Steering Wheels On The Right (For The Associated Negro Press) One rather likes the English of England when he gets them at short range. They have a conservatism about customs, forms, and language, but are keen thinkers about international and interracial questions. 23 AMERICAN REPRESENTED U The English language of this island and that of the American continent are becoming more and more two different dialects. They spell tire (of autos) tyre; pajamas are pajamas; and all their a nearby are broadly pronounced. They are not "revising" their spelling but still use the good old long, ink-wasting English orthography: although colour, etc. No American would ever guess that they pronounce Welwyn as Wellin, Keighley as Keechly. They still drive to the left in England, although about all the rest of the world is "drive to the right". Steer On Left As a result, all the motor cars have the steering wheel on the right hand side—and an American is likely to get ridden without a quailty guard. But the right when it will be coming from the left, and vice versa. It seems queer at first to see the cross-road signs reading: "Drive low to English, in English, because it is an island, and nobody else needs to drive into England. It is still their custom to have no furnace or "central" heat in their houses, although some especially those catering to Americans, make an exception, and they all keep their rooms too cold for Americans—as the English would make Americans, when they Englishmom to death he is in America. Illusious And I have found out that many of the so-called characteristics of the English are more illusions or falsehoods,—as one usual member of my family has personal experience of that race. I have often heard whites say the same thing when they came into personal contact, for example, it is said that the Englishman slow to appreciate a joke, but I never found quicker or more enthusiastic appreciation of humor or charm. They say that the English are born snobs; but I have seen them in their grand homes where they have small armies of servants and find them democratic and chummy, and they are equally nouns with their group. On our stage they are usually pictured in an atmosphere of weakness; but they are positively the hardest people to see, and over met,—they will freeze out and an American by their habits and customs.—Speaking of their humor, they go on to go on to the "Henry Ford" jokes of England. The other day, too, in a seaside city, my hostess told me this one (I quote from memory) from one of their English FORD More Ford And today they have told us about the fellow seen climbing a tree, try climbing it, and lodged in the top branches—and when asked how it got there, he explained: "I started to crank it and it flew off the handle. And I can tell you how it can tell what denomination a fellow belongs with up there by the kind of car he arrives in; that the kind of car at the car of the new arrival; when it is a Rolls Royce, he sends to the Church of England quarters; those quarters some people in England to the Presbyterian fathers; when they come in a Trojan, they are Methodists;—but one day Mr. Angel encountered some immigrants in the city, who quitted he. The occupants replied: "It is a Ford."—"Good," said the angel; you belong with the Christmas Carol; for you think you came in a car." Morris Cars These and other good jokes on the American fliver are partly generated by the press, but English, English-made goods,—and those Morris cars are cutting a great slice out of the Ford engine, the American-made English makers decided that Americans could sell them a cheap some, however, that the Ford engine is the best thing of its price.

Good roads, good hotels, neat houses, mean a high standard of living and a high standard of advance the South has made in bodily comfort, and if we are Northerners take some credit to ourselves since we have provided them with the story. The story Mr. Mlms tells of industrial management in the Birmingham Steel Mills is also important. The mills have built up a model town for races and have not shown race discrimination. To me, the most interesting part of the book is the South's struggles for academic freedom. I learn from Trinity College (now Duke University) stood by John Spencer Bassett. Bassett had written an article in which he had said that save for General Robert F. Kennedy, the greatest man the South had produced for a hundred years. One can imagine the uprorm. When the Board of Trustees, after a protest against freedom must be preserved and refused to accept the resignation that Professor Bassett was ready to present, it was three o'clock in the morning, and the youths who are doing so much for freedom in the South today, were up waiting eagerly for the news of the outcome, and when they heard they were bell and made a victory. Nell Battle Lewis of the Raleigh News and Observer, comes in for high praise on the platform of Smith College, class day orator, talking on the South and she comes to the North saying she is the hand: "On this note I refer you to the Negro minister." A colored chassmate of four years, she indeed advanced if Nell Battle Lewis has had a change of heart. When it comes to the Negro question, the Southners does not talk much. Even the Interracial Committee's work is dismissed with a rude insult when he asks us to have sympathy with the white man who has borne the burden of the Negro criminality, disease and inefficiency. Disease, crime and inefficiency are social problems, so for us the Negro employer laborer is important in his working class has suffered from them. Today as long as the Southern employer laborer is black in education, housing, he will suffer; but we have no more reason to pity him than we have reason to ex- It is good to learn of this advancing section.

"Acidic acid develops in the stomach at an alarming rate. The acid irritates and inflames the delicate mucosa and causes irritation accompanied by dangerous stomach ulcers.

Jackson, SPORTS MIRROR SPORTS MIRROR Lo Hampton When Coach Williams said Hampton was putting a new team on the court this season, he was wright, because the game with Minor Northern Conference week shows that the Seasiders are not very strong. The D. C. lads held them to a 25 to 20 score, and the Seasiders had to more beat the Washingtonians to 16 to 1 day before. If the score means anything Coach Gibson boys might do, the team not only double doubles. The Seasiders played a very tight game with Morgan last year, but, because these two combinations can without injury season they will be slaughtered, that's all. Not only Morgan, but Howard will do it also, because these two combinations can without injury season they will be slaughtered in the country. Usually there is no comparison to be made between College court teams and high school teams and the crew from strong high, Washington, are playing above mid-season form and would scuff Hampton's hide, as they did this section. As for this section, it is impossible, one might say to place a strong basketball team on the floor every year, but had a strong team each season. Not only Howard but, Morgan, Morehouse too, who has held the lead and defeated for the first time in a Southern Conference game by Morris Brown a week or so ago. The Seasiders may be towly now but the basketball season ends, watch out.

UNION BAPTIST CHURCH The activities of the Union Baptist are beginning in the New Year in a wholesome and vigorous spirit, with a special program. The finishing up of last year's work as reported in the annual meeting gave totals which came as expected to the congregation. There was an gain in membership of about 150 with some 50 or 60 on the list. The financial income for the year exceeded $20,000. This in the mind of the older members is one of the best years financially. If not the best year, the Union Baptist. Sunday coming, will be a special missionary day intended to give a substantial gift to the New York Board of Trustees. The 31st to inaugurate a new mission uned the auspices of the Lott Board. With the secretary will be a nominal charge of the program and will give the morning sermon while Mrs. Barrierje will give her good wishes. Certainly, all the friends interested in this new endeavor of Baptists to take the Baptists into farther places will present and to share in these services. The announcement is made of the day the announcement is made. The pastor is to give the sermons while Miss Julia Mae Kennedy, a teacher, conduct the singing. No one who takes delight in gospel music should miss the singing of Miss Kennedy sing. The meetings will begin on Sunday 22nd and continue till the first Sunday in February. Howard Univ. Gets Full Appropriation WASHINGTON, D. C.—The entire Howard University appropriation of $385,000 was agreed to by the Senate.

The appropriation has appropriated half million dollars for a new medical building now under construction at Howard, over $300,000 for a gymnasium and athletic field, $200,000 for a new laboratory and now $150,000 for a girls' dormitory. These appropriations have been made in addition to other appropriations and now $150,000 for a girls' dormitory. INFORMATION WANTED Anyone knowing the whereabouts of MR.

J.—Girls have supplanted men as waiters in Haddon Hall Hotel here. The change has created a sensation among working people of the city, and prejudice have driven the colored waiters and porters out of nearly every large hotel except the Excelior. In 1908 only two large hotels, the Belmont and the Marlborough-Blenheim had white waiters. All of the others had not only colored waiters but chauffeurs, bellmen, chambermaids and porter men for politics from $2.50 to $5.00 in tips because they had charge of purchasing tickets and handling the baggage of guests. Today all these employees have disappeared, except For some strange reason the bellman has held his own when the others fell by the way. White bellmen are employed in the St. Louis Excelsior. Two reasons are assigned why colored workers have lost out in hotel service here. One of them is politics. There are other members of the Beachfront, with about 14 members who are owners and managers of the largest hotels. Then the Sido Avenue Hotel Men's Association with about 100 members; with about 100 small hotels and managers who number about 300. In politics colored people have consistently refrained from lining up with the League, the NAACP Association, although these were the largest employers. The Traymore, the Ritz-Carlton, the Ambassador, the Knickerbocker, which have been expected in the past five years. They have taken the place of older hotels with colored help, and have been able to provide white help exclusively. There is for example, the old Breakers, which used to accommodate some 2,000 guests, and eventually has now gone back into the second rate class which uses but colored bellmen now. In 1903 the Admiral was closed and the Admiral down. The Almance and Knickerbocker, the Shelburne and the Royal Palace, now, only have colored bellmen. Mrs. Leeds. As long as old Mrs. M. Leeds was alive and the owners of the Leeds' Lippincott company, Chaffonte, her influence kept colored waiters in Haddon Hall.

After discussing in a meeting a few days ago with several persons present, I found out that beside myself, there are a number of Memphians who deem "Dashing Dinah" the cleverest show of this season. We noticed the absence of smutte words, suggestive movements and laughter. "As for 'nude' women we don't feel like we should have to go to a public. Theatre to see them, so things to be enjoyed because things to be enjoyed because your show has been enjoyed by the public at large. I certainly hope you will be an example for many other shows who might follow and may wear 'nude' men and with skill lot and the bad part of 'Nude' shows is that our children of all ages must visit the theatres and witness things that are at least ten or fifteen years too young to see.

Connie's Frolics our troubles mar, With their songs and pretty faces. Each a wow, and know their places. Jimmy Jackson, Sam Cross, John- ny and Jennie Dancy, Emmett An- thony, Mantan Moreland, Alto Atte and Johnson and Lee are the featu- res with whom Jimmy Frolics playing the week at the Rege- nt Theatre. The show is the same presented here earlier in the season, but one can never tire of seeing them pay a return engagement. Carrying an all-star cast, in which each one of them is in India, they the revue gushes you throughout the performance. The show has several excellent dancers, the outstanding ones being Cross and Jackson and Johnson and Lee. The formers' teamwork is arti- tistic and the breaks timed. The latter team delivers a line of chatter, leaving up to their dance that is funny and clean. Johnny Dancy and Jackson as "strawman" prove to be nice pantomime artists. The music that accompanies this number is very catchy and peppy. The chorus also comes in for honors on this number. The singer was very nice looking gowns and sings her songs in a way which makes the audience fall in with her. Her singing of "Take Your Fingers Off It" was the real hit, being both humorous and melodious. Mantan was suffering from a bad tooth on Monday and was working under a strain. It was here that the sound of wood whistling understudy, by stepping out the role and putting the bits over in a way that pleased everybody. Emmette Anthony is an A-1 comic artist and proved that he is a singer as well. He is applauded after he had rendered, "Oh Lady" and "Mama's Little Coal Black Rose." A novelty scene is introduced with several of the chorus members appearing in various settings, such as the tennis girl, the rider, the swimwear the vamp and a semi-nude nose. The vamp was played by Frances Watkins, a former member of the Miller and Slater company, who is well known here. Jenny Dancy sold her song in a nice manner but would have made it better appearance had she wore boots. The difference in the made up arms and natural arms were a poor contrast. Sam Cross as the devil in "Twenty Minutes in Hell" is not only proving himself an artist in the art of make up, but his facial expressions show the sincerity he adds to character. Here is a man for villainous roles where movie ducers are ready. He has wonder-screen possibilities. The chorus girls are the prettiest seen here in quite a long time. I say this without exaggerating or any personal feeling. The costuming is unique, clean and nearly new. Coats and Impels is an offering. Dancers impel and smiley, humorous, full of star dancers, good looking ladies and some good singers. The chorus members are Dorothy Lawson, Frances Watkins, Ruth Payne, Goldie Sisco, Carrie Baltimore, Gladys Drown, Henderson Potter, and Dorothy Hawkins, a Bultimore, and Dorothy Miller is pianist, assisted by Bill Payne, cornet, and Dinah, drums.

Harry Henderson is exceptionally good, the wrapped face—who is not to prison to shield his friend (Wm. Clayton), only to get out and find his friend has turned his back on him and is seeking to steal the affections, of his girl (Shingle Howard). The picture is full of pathos and human interest.

On Monday "Bigger Than Barnum," the great circus picture ever tilmed will be shown.

The "Belle of Broadway" will be show Tuesday, double features Wednesday and the "Escape" on Thursday. On Friday "Wild Justice" with Peter The Great, a dog with human intelligence will be here.

A novel touch to this story is the fact that there is no squabbling, rows or heavy dramatic scenes, each of the characters take the situation calmly using their wits rather than their straighten out the chirrising situations, out all through the fight up to the final scene, they all remain the best friends apparently. An instance of, skillful and effective handling is the climax ax; you don't see any of the fight between Dick and Jack, but when Jack appears in court with a black eye, it tells the whole story. A novel and clean subtitle that husbands, that is other women's husbands, are liable to fall, but that a really clever-wife can succeed in picking them up again on the first bounce.

Along The White Way By Maybelle Robinson Clew There is once more a colorado show in a downtown house but being a working woman I haven't had time to see it. However, I don't think one will find a faster, cleverer show anywhere that Coucle's Inn Frolics at the Regent. This show abounds with clever pattern, good booking girls, and good singers. The best course for a coedian is the better singer, and one could argue about whether or not the two dancers were better singers than dancers. Of course, the best course is a high class order to please a big New York Night Club. It certainly suited me. I am going back again. "Neath the Southern Moon" at the Royal, scarcely mentions the moon, but Bodididdley and Dink are as foolish as if they had just left the rural South. The leading lady sang well as did also the soubrette, and the young man tumbling Charleston was a real novelty. There are four dancers with this show; one of whom doubles as the straight. The poor little straight man worked like a Trojan. He can sing and dance both. His Spanish Dancer was a good partner. There is also a good picture, "Lost At Sea" which is full of thrills.

"Ip North, many have asked me: 'Who rides in the 'Jim Crow?' The answer is men and women of all types. Bishops, school presidents, doctors, lawyers, laborers, railroad workers, babies, and growing chil- On some roads, some trains, there is an entire coach, but there are many trains where the coach is divided into three parts, like Gaul: white smoker, Colored women's department and Colored smoker, Colored men's department and Colored smoker, they are in a half coach for all Colored, with one toilet, and they are often times crowded to suffocation, with people standing in the aisles. I have been on such quite recently. American sentiment is compelled to change men and women of trains and high standing in the Nero group can be permitted to have first-class accommodations! The maliciousness of segregation is the cost of the trouble. Certain whites will say: "Well, if you don't want to ride by your people, why do you ride in Chicago, New York and other parts, there are types of hotels and restaurants. They are permitted to have their trade. But there are certain places that have no appeal because they do not furnish the service. That is true of the Jim crow trains. It is not a question of pulling away; it is a question of ser On the other hand, as long as this thing exists, churches and welfare organizations should advise the people on conduct in the church and the porters should not be so sloppy. The men and women should not air their feet by pulling off their shoes. They should not yell from one end of the coach to the other and laugh loud while passing through different towns. There is too much of all this. Poor whites do the same. There is sometimes drinking and profanity usually used in the church and holiday. The most detestable person in the world is one who is ignorant and pompous! I have seen some of these that I would like to whistle soundly. Since we are not supposed to each should have some regard for the other fellow's welfare and comfort. Miss Preer's Ridicule Miss Evelyn Preer, theatreal star of New York and Chicago, told me of a time when she was in a certain small town in Georgia, and that beautiful young woman was looking for her. She said: "I put on all the dignity I could summon, and my best boulevard walk, and went up to the conductor, and in a pleasant condenseing way I inquired: 'Sir, can you tell me where. I will find the James Crow car.' I continued: "The conductor looked at me with mixed bewilderment and indignation. I said: 'Yes, yes, the James Crow car that you have reserved for colored people. He didn't know whether to tell no or swear, but he finally had answered to the place near the engine." Incidentally, from all appearances, Miss Preer could have ridden anywhere. She is not only talented and beautiful, but is able to pay her way, and is happily married. Edward must be at the age of 18. But, she must ride by the course.

Ethel Waters At Cafe de Paris Chicago—Following the closing of her Shubert's Princess theatre engagement in "Miss Calico" Ethel Waters opened at the classy Cafe de Paris here Tuesday night. BAND OF 8 MUSICIANS TUCKY LADS MITCHEL bbli Big Creole Chorus —TUESDAY MILE SHOW ON A TOP RIDE WAY ```markdown ``` AIDS TO BE THEATRES "NEATH THE SOUTHERN MOON" AT THE ROYAL "NEATH THE SOUTHERN MOON" AT THE ROYAL Lewis Cole, former Baltimorean, Dink Stewart and Kidd Lippa In Revue Quite a bit of real entertainment and several amusing situations are developed in Billy "Bodidleye" Pierson's "Neath The Southern Moon," playing the week at the Royal Theater, at its opening performance on Broadway. The way the company works, from principals to chorus, made it a hard job to select and feature any one player. Lewis Cole, formerly of East Baltimore, is most of the show. Cole is very much in evidence throughout the show. He makes the biggest impression when he and a partner execute a Spanish routine to the tune of "Senorita Mine." The chap has a good sense and one is able to see in great possibilities as a straight character. Singing was a little weak until Miss Hazel Meyers, noted record artist makes her appearance. Miss Meyers is of African descent, whose kind that you want to choke because the reverts to the hard-hearted mama role or renders her song in a gruff manner. She has a voice that is pleasant to hear. Loveie Austin, who is one of our most of admirers with her style of piano playing. She has thrown about her four assistants that are capable to kept space of her and render their numbers in a soothing way. Kid Lipps, who is now drumming for this aggregation, still proves that he rightfully won the title of the "Charleston king." This boy has returned here with some steps that are not quite as easy in the opening number drew loud applause from the first nighters. Others that attributed to the orchestra success nurd D. C. Nelson, corner Pats King, took saxophones, jazzing with solo parts. The band and Miss Meyers featured several "blues" that were well applauded and Mr. Cole again proved his ability to render "The Ebola Drama." The comedy is a little stale, but clean and laugh producing, being placed in the hands of Ninkey, Stewart and Plieron, assisted by "Long" Lonnie Matlock. Viola Mayo singes a couple of numbers that are predominantly on "blues" but they do not go over so big as she just don't seem to fit in here. Walter Smith, J. B. Miller and Pinkle Austin are hard workers, Miller is an extra-ordinary fine tap dancer and with a little encouragement is headed for the big title. The dancing trio that is introduced in the opening could omit the singing of the song "Jealous" and go into their soft shoe strut as they dance and with them and too, the song is old and has been worked to death all over the country. An Egyptian dancer was unusually awkward on Monday and made several errors that are plainly noticeable. A little rehearsing here might do some good. One long tall fellow in a red striped pair of overalls also contributed some dancing steps that are not only new to these parts, but a variety of every one can not put on successfully. A lack of personality is noticeable among the principals. The straight men must be careful and ring the publo a shine and wear the shoes before facing the lights. REG LL & RE ng O REGENT WEDNESDAY She Chose a Career The Afro-American----South's Biggest and Best Weekly PHOTO - PLAYS BY GEORGE D. TYLER It is quite amusing the way the "blues" singers are trying to keep alive that "hard hearted hannah" air made famous by Mamie Smith, Bessie Smith and a few that took a fling at the thing with a success. Ethel Waters is an exception. Her way of handling "blues" is solely artistic, losing none of the harmony therein or the rhythm that is affiliated with Negro music. Miss Waters only pulls the rope, suff occasionally, when she does, it takes a sense of humor that is placed in such a way and so brief, we are not overburdened, but crave more. The Misses Smiths have attained fame and fortune with these roles with suitable voices to back them up, plenty of personality and charm. Now why will these little marts hit town doing a "hard hearted hummah" with song "umteen" years old, a voice just above a whisper and looking like first one thing then another. The is to be yourself without pulling a Bessie or Mamie Smith and making a success. Stand on your own bottom.

We go wild with these presentations unless we see the shows from which they are now based here at these kings for cruising art. Whippier and Grangler are credited with having placed some of the hits that are used in Broadway production, to satisfaction. Why did these boys go to Broadway with their material career with Broadway producers would not pay them anywhere near the true value of their skits. They also realize that white producers are always on the alert for original material and will pay for some, C. O. D. A fair example of originality was in Baltimore a year or so ago by Joe Bright, one of the clearest producers that ever was before the public. Although Baby Bright as he is known is constantly having his ups and downs as well as being knocked by every one at the mention of his name, he stood for originality. Joe Bright Joe Bright did not ask me to write this, for that matter I do not know where Joe is having lost track of him at the time of his closing at the Hippodrome. Neither did Joe AMERICAN who failed to mention the matter at the time it translated. Joe had the stage to represent the office of the Editor-In-Chief of our own weekly with the right wing as the press-reason.

SHOW MANAGER KILLS PARTNER WHO "CHEATED" WASHINGTON—The aftermath of a split between Wiggins Jefferson and his wife, was the death of James Sturdivant. 22, late Thursday night, when the latter demanded entrance to the Jefferson room of Summit Hotel, 7th and N streets. Both men were members of the Neighb Musical Company, playing the week at the Foraker Theatre. From persons associated with the two men well, it was learned that Jefferson had been married and during that time Sturdivant had been paying unusual attention to her. On Thursday night late, Sturdivant went to Jefferson's room his wife was also in there with him. He asked to come in, but Jefferson told him he was going to meet his way in and upon getting in Jefferson fired four times at him, three shots taking effect. A wound in the stomach is said to have caused death instantly. The men were partners on the show and had been together for seven years.

"The Gospel Train Is I of the greatest pieces of CHICAGO—The amazing announcement that there is something really new under the sun unquestionably applies to the optimistic feeling held by a manager Martin Klein, manager of Chicago, the University of Chicago, and the Grand, starting with the opening of the new year of 1927. Looking back over the old year, manager Klein says, frankly speaking, there is little complaint to be registered against old 1926. It was though, during its twelve months stay, good to some, well worth it. Still, it surely proved its worth-willness to business conditions, that is, as far as the business at the Grand was concerned. And this too, held up remarkably well, throughout the entire season of 1926. Therefore, have no complaint to register for the old year that has just passed out. Again. The old year brought to the Grand an excellent line of theatrical offerings. And these, besides being of a meritorious nature, were always tradition too, withstood the acid test of excellence and perfection. Each week too, during the old year, brought something that even the theatre-goers of Chicago had a chance to talk about and admire the patrons too, had ample chance of finding out that in such theatre! offerings during 1926, they more than fulfilled a long felt want in the annals of high-class amusements.

Recently while working at the studio Bailey found himself without funds, so he wrote a check for $1.00 which was obligingly cashed by the Universal City. The check, however, came back tagged "No Account At Tis Bank." Through the efforts of Charles Butler of the Chicago Clergy Office, the Chief received another dollar in cash and Bailey missed going to fail.

WHEATLEY ASKS FOR SEGREGATED LOAN $1,700,000 Of $10,000,000 School Loan Should Be Used For Colored Schools PUBLIC SCHOOL ASSO. ALSO BACKS REQUEST "Colored Have Been Patient Many Years," Secretary Declares The Federation of Parent-Teacher Hub, through its partners, Ms. Taura d. Wheatley, urged the School Board to recommend that one-third of the $10,000,000 school fund be used for the schools colored school buildings, at its regular session last Thursday afternoon. In view of the fact that less than five percent of the last school loan was used for colored schools and that it was only through hard work and diligence that Project No. 10 was finally realized, Mrs. Wheatley said that the Federation had placed itself on record as favoring other members of the delegation were John Westley Jones and James Granderson. Mrs. Wheatley recommended that an adjunct faculty be holding for exercised out of the loan and in addition a school for handicapped children and a parental one. Mrs. Wheatley recommended some of the conditions exist in colored schools. At School Argyle avenue, she said classes are very often suspended because no lights are on. She asked the question of the board members why lights had not been provided for this school. Superintendent Weigel replied that there were no problems. School 116. Droid Hill avenue and School 114. Caroline murray street and baird streets. The brunched former, Mrs. Wheatley. The before the Civil war, she said, was built 20 years ago. The school was abandoned in every school survey for the past 40 years. Eighteen of the 30 worst white schools, she said, had been turned into abandoned children. East Baltimore John Wesley Jones urged the board to recommend a new building for East Baltimore to relieve the overcrowded condition in that section. He stated that that a school for the junior high school in School 101, Carolina and Jefferson streets, is being used to house elementary public: "If we are to have a junior high school, we want a junior high and not part junior and part element." we added. Mrs. Baurenschmidt The Public School Association also moves a aggregated loan according to its secretary, Mrs. Bauren-Schmidt, who told the board that while the association would recommend no definite amount of its favor of a definite amount of the loan being allocated for colored school buildings. She said she had talked to pollutants downtown and they do not feel there be any objection. to a segregated community. "The colored people have been patient for many years with giving them buildings we do not want." Parental School The board approved the recommendation of the committee on attendance that he would be fired at the Maryland Home for Friendship Colored Children, at Catonsville, for 1927, under the same conditions as in previous years. Such "Henley's" statement reads: "Much improvement has been made in our school since 1929-21, and we greatly appreciate the sympathetic attitude of the present city and school administration toward our schools and schools." But in view of the fact that we are facing an election for mayor, we are now moving to a new election being: and having no assurance of the reappointment of the three splendid members of the School Board, we are in the light of past experience, we feel that it would rebound to the level we have specified, the amount of the proposed new School Loan, which is to be used for Col- Broad School First School Loan of over 20,000,000 about 95 per cent of it is used for White schools and one on one and one-half school. About 5 per cent of Colored schools considered in the last survey for early-replacement were Colored schools. Children are still occupying houses some of which have condemned in every survey for last 60 years. School 103.8, High 116 on Drudg 118 on Biddle are erected in not fit for a cute pen, 118 on Angley avenue, near School staff have been abandoning STARS ago. These are only a few concrete examples. Our children are occupying more than 20 of the worst school buildings — Buildings which use men to go good and ill adapted the needs of modern education. In the light of these circumstances we feel that $1,750,000 of the New Loun would have to surface. View of the fact that little schools have already provided for to the extent of new school buildings since 1920, and have been otherwise improved and provided with ample ground space, makes it more desirable sections of the city. While we have received only 2 new schools with NO PLAN GROUNDS, we feel that the colonies million would hardly meet off- We therefore petition the School Board to specify not LESS than ONE-THIRD of the school schools. And we appeal to every red-hooded man and woman. Colored or White, who is interested in the HEALTH of this community—Pastors, churches, secret orders, and every organized unit—to lend your support to the Baltimore Federation of Parent-Teacher Schools.

The old Spark Coil, dusted, and raided all of the joints in the old transmitter with that famous Clastor Oil. The present length of this station is 28, 1972, it will broadcast on a wave length of 22 meters. Don't forget to tune in each week from now. The first number on the program will be a Flapper Goose Rhyme, by the chief announcer, himself. Flapper Bo Peep lost her sleep. And didn't know where to find it. And it finally came home. Bringing a snare behind it. Uncle Henry A., the famous Whist Shark, wants to see the planner who stated that he took a plano apart and then played a piece. The next number on the program will be a new song entitled, "Just a little stuff" which will be by Hoot Owl and its famous, "Clug Band." We are wondering how soup eating willld sound over radio. They broadcast everything else. Then there's the absent-minded Professor who throw out his radio tubes because they whistled in the house. The weather man says do not buy your thermometers now, as they will be lower next winter. Doc. Crooks, one of Baltimore's young, prominent physicians, says "A college romance is a brief summary terminated by the engagement of or both of the interested parties." They say that society women are now raising pet silkworms. Probably teaching them to make rolled stockings. Pap Browning is the only peach left from the family tree. I saw in the paper the other day where some English inventor has invented a television, which is allowing more than a telephone that will enable one to see a party on the screen. That means no more bedroom or bathroom conversations by telephone. Boys, do not rush the invention, as his idea will be put on the market soon enough. "The Pig Woman" always has a squaw coming. Does she not? Let us hope that each and every person throughout this vast expansion of humanity has made at least one squaw and will endeavor to carry it out. Oh yes, most of us do. I'm sure. Hero are just a few interesting, Sparky resolutions that lighted in the vestibule of my broadening station last week. Young John Coolidge, "Shiek" one of our most distinguished, will hereafter absolutely refuse to dine with any more "pretty" holes at the White House. He hasn't said anything about the humilious ones. Mrs. Marcus Garvey has made a resolution that she will not tell Mr. Garvey what she told Doc. Harrison some months ago. Well that did top Garvey that, as one time, though. His So and So, the Prince of Wales, has resolved that he will try to stay on his horse more, and not on the ground so much, when he goes out for his morning's steeple chase. That isn't a bad idea. Charlie Chaplin has resolved that he will wear bigger and sloppier shoes for forthcoming productions. Great! M. Perry Howard has resolved that he will not try to find another high slit but to wear to the Howl. Now he's ready to wear to the year. That's a very fine idea, as I imagine that it must be rather difficult to see a football game thus a hat. We understand that many of the movie actors and actresses have made a resolution that they will try to wear high slits the coming year so as to keep some of the lawyers from starring to death. Queen Marie has resolved that she will never again stay away from home as long as she did this last time, but she will stay a dern sight longer. Paul Whitman, better known as the "Double Chinned Jazz King," has decided that he will try to find a way to discard one of his chins and try to look natural again from now on. Maybe our good friend, Andy Gump, will accept it, as he surely has been doing without one long time. Patty Arbuckle might discard his too. Never mind about mine. That will do. THAT WILL DO! I've got to round up the ones that I made last year first. How about it? We have learned that the reason so few men go to church is, they don't care particularly what other men wear.

ASKS SEGREGATED SCHOOL LOAN DISCIPLINARY CONTROL WEAK SPOT IN DOUGLASS HI SCHOOL Practice of Suspending Pupils and Sending for Parents Condemned As Too Frequent and Evidence of Weakness. No One Could Imagine Pupil-Students On Strike Against Late Principal J. H. N. Waring or razzing Him In Gym or Assemble Second of a series of articles on Douglass High School, Baltimore, AMERICAN for a Douglass High School alumnus. Last week we attested the reten conditions in the Douglass High School to the general disapproval of the methods of Mr. Hawkins and his inability to get along with the prosecution, the piece of trap cheats that took place in 1821 when the salary of the prosecution was lower than the protest of the School board. It was a sad commentary when the Superintendent then testified that the School Board had been requisitioned in the question of the Board of Estimates. City's Biggest Business Public education is Baltimore's Biggest Business, the School Board Budget being the largest item in our municipal affairs, and since the taxpayers must pay the bill they entitle themselves to There is much waste in our high School and it can be partly attributed to the lack of understanding and spirit of co-operation between the principal of the school and the teacher of the elementary schools. Mr. Hawkins has assumed an unwarranted attitude of superiority to the principal of the teachers and to the public at large. Maryland Day In 1633, during the reign of Charles 1 of England, began our fair state of Maryland. We revere him and like to use his name in the central administration feels, and rightly so that in order that the school children of Baltimore sense the significance of Maryland's early history, appreciate our school's role in the schools and designated in the school calendar for 1923. Mr. Hawkins felt otherwise or was not on his job when what he designed for the annual holiday was deferred at the Douglass High School while all the other schools of Baltimore were in session. The Holiday Mr. Hawkins later changed his mind and bestowed himself to get his teachers to school by automobile, by telephone and other devices. In a communication to the School Board he explained his mistake in a misinterpretation of the school calendar. The School Board wrote back that there was no reason for the mistake. Other principals hearing about the High School holiday called each other over the telephone inquiring about the holiday, yet no one called Mr. Hawkins and Mr. Hawkins called no one. A bit more co-operation and good will might have prevented that blunder. The principal is the responsible leader of his school and among other things he ought to be in such intimate contact with the lower schools that closer coordination of the work of the elementary and high School would result. He ought not to assume that he holds his position by executive announcement. He certainly shouldn't pose as Moses sent down to lead the people out of the wilderness. No man holds his job simply because he knows it all. One thing that a High School principal ought to do is keep the Superintendent and the Board of School Commissioners informed about his school and make constructive recommendations. The Late Lockout Order Prof. Hawkins knew that a late lockout order was to be made because his business had already discussed it until 3 n. m., the day before it was presented to the faculty, he lacked vision there because the central office that door bells be installed so that late pupils could ring and get in when they arrived. The students were given a list of rules and one rule stated that no one was to be admitted after 10 a.m. Oh, pshaw! I’m always here by that time. Now come the lockout order when the grand promendue was held. Hawkins holds this faculty responsible for the late rule, yet we are told that the revocation of the rule was not the work of the Selection Of Teachers Another reason why there is so much criticism against Mr. Hawkins is due to his selection of teachers and teachers are now chosen because of merit. Heretofore the selection was made by Mr. Hawkins and the feeling has prevailed among Baltimoreans the Baltimoreans Mr. Hawkins has boasted that people he did not want in his faculty would not get there. So in view of this policy there has been an exodus of teachers to the supreme head, former Sup. West told an appendant that he could get plenty of teachers to come into the Douglas High for $1200 and Mr. Hawkins has been ready to present the $1200 teachers. Autocracy Cooperation should be in the relations of the principal and his staff. But there can be no co-operation if the principal is of the autocratic type. That type of principal issues order before him and rebelled for non-compliance with regulations set up. Such administration in the hands of a weak man becomes loose and kills the spirit which makes for initiative I am told that one of the problems in the Douglass High is the proper use of the auditorium at the school. I have heard that frequent renditions of programs simply degenerated the assembly into "jazz sessions." So much dissatisfaction arose from that procedure that the school had to change the program week. But now on days when no program is scheduled, the time between the lunch period and the next recreation period went in the period with history, general disorder and confusion. Mr. Hawkins has an excellent opportunity to train our boys and girls in the music and dance manners. The Douglass High School splendid faculty, practically all rated The Afro-American----South's Biggest and Best Weekly "satisfactory" and certainly there is no reason why the tax payers should be so upset. It is said that one method of keeping the pupils quiet in the luncheon assembly period is a song service especially when visitors are in the Assembly Stuff These assemblies are dedicated to group chairman for arrangement. It is the business of the principal to select his group chairman and teachers in the performance of the duties for which he has made their request. The principal, in those duties does not mean he is relieved of the responsibility for their acts. He is task or facilitating principal who in an emergency undertakes to evade an issue by laying the blame upon a subordinate, depriving him of the responsibility he will acquire in his school and the community. Teachers will only be loyal to their chief when supported by the bourgeois High School will yield to the judgment of the principal only when they are convinced as to his sincerity and Rotten Discipline If it's true the greatest benefit of educational training is its disciplinary value, then education is worthwhile. Discipline should be built upon a recognition of the rights and responsibilities of the members of a group, and a group's only way to develop good school morale, is to have a pupil feel that he is part of the common start part of the group of which he forms part. Discipline is rotten in the Douglas III because of the principal's responsible. There is no disciplinary control there because the method of handling the cases is It has been reported in this city, Ex-Service Men are paying great sums for compensation certificate.

The practice of suspending pupils and requiring them to be with instruction is to be condemned when it is frequently employed. Sending children to the office in large numbers and then having them sent back to school is the teacher for adjustment of the case, needs to be condemned. The frequent and indiscriminate use of suspension is an evidence of weak control. Suspension and expulsion should be a last resort. The teacher, in the order of the day in the administration of the late Dr. J. H. N. Waring, You could not conceive the idea of a grand march to the administration proceeding with instruction, could not conceive the idea of students giving Dr. Waring the wazz. The Sore Spot Disciplinary control was the order of the day at the City College when the Principal, Dr. Brike, ended quickly the state board's authority suspending the cling leaders. The authority and the responsibility for control rest with the principal; he should insist that the president impress plis or parents that he is unable to handle the situation and shift the responsibility which is his own to the home. The Douglass High School is the high school system. The failure of Mr. Hawkins to get along with the people, his lack of co-operation with other branches, his disdainful attitude, his distasteful attitude, his air of superlity, his weak evallancing method of managing the high school, his failure to exercise his ihm unfit to remain as the head of our high school. The City of Baltimore is getting its worst high school administration in its history, and the only remedy is to hire a temporary conservation of Mr. Hawkins. Some fellows marry poor girls to settle down; others marry rich girls to settle up. BLAS 408-41 These Are Not Patent Price of Remedies $1.00 a D., $1.35.

A woman when Lester Macklain, a world war veteran and his Roumanian bride had a parting of the ways Saturday, questions settled were prohibition, the soldiers bonus, and inter-marriage. Macklain collected a loan on his moms blank, no drumming, and his white wife had to seek police protection. Macklain was destroying all of the property in the home of the officer in charge into the house. The wife told the magistrate that her husband was a very much fine man when he was a young girl. She also asked the Magistrate to give her a peace bond restraining her husband from carrying out the attack, but this was refused because the state of Maryland does not provide for the issuance of peace bonds restraining her. Macklain was found $10 and costs, which he paid and left the station house on the heels of his wife, but it was not until then that the story He was more peeved with his wife than ever because he didn't like the idea of being alone. He took all his $175, which he had just collected and left the house. He returned a few hours later drunk and broke, saying he had been robbed. He took a taxi and had himself conveyed to Union Station where he left word that he was on his way back to Philadelphia. Queen Mary's still at that the avenue address and declares that when Lester sobers up he will come back home to her and the baby.

Burglar Queen Miss Bryd was sent to the House of Correction in May of 1925 when she was found to be the leader of an organized gang of girl burglars operating in the Northwestern district. Over a long period and police were thrown off the scout by looking for a gang of hardened criminals. Even blase detectives were shocked when she found the homes of several young girls who were at the time in school. Stole goods amounting to hundreds of dollars were recovered from the home and to have acted as a fence for the youthful burglars.

PRIZE WINNERS IN HOW ABOUT CONTEST First prize of $2.50 to Mrs. Geneva Randall-Taylor, 1923 Druid Hill avenue: MARKETING I rush to the market and this is quite true. I usually vexed before I get through. I go to the butcher to buy some meat. The potato seller that I am complete. Now that I have decided and leave him alone He'll cut on the meat and give me more bone. Ah! this is so natural! I am free! I pay him the price and take what I get. I then look for carrots, for turnips and beans. I ask if he has them, he recommends greens. Yes, madam, they're young, they're tender and crisp. We haven't the colds yet, we try this. Good say here's a bargain, we end up with that. I give him the coin and things are all pat. And as for the oranges, apples and grapes They vary in quality as well as rates. Before I have gotten to the stall, the nurse is confusing as they heck and call. "I got cheap bananas, soft peaches, they're fine." So quell the commotion. I pull out the dime. Alas! I have finished, the buying is done. With head and arms schooled, I'm ready to home. I fatigued and hurried. I'm really half sore. And almost declare I'll go no more. So, thus have I ended my market career. I put down the basket and sink in despair. The second prize of $1.50 goes to Mrs. Louise A.

The intensity of these ultra-violet radiations as they reach the earth face varies greatly with the season of the year and with the condition there. In the north temperate zone the intensity is greatest, when the sun has reached the point that is about June 21, and least when the sun has reached the most southern point. Between 21 the aurora has been the most intense in greatest between ten and two o'clock. If the day is cloudy or on the atmosphere, smoke or in the atmosphere, the radiation is greatly diminished. Unruth-violet radiation is less, therefore, in congested and smoky cities than in the When the radiations from the sun pass through solid substances certain rays are filtered out. silk, for instance, permits the permit the visible and ultra-violot rays, but is opaque the visible and ultra-violot rays. Window glass permits the passage of visible rays and the opening is opaque to ultra-violot rays, causing ourselves in heavy clothing and by living behind glass windows we are depriving ourselves effectually of most of the ultra-violot rays. It is only the rays strike directly on the bare skin that they can be absorbed by the body.

Many of us have made new resolutions for myself, just as we did our week. For myself, I have only one question. That is that I didn't get a chance to use some of the splendid subjects which came to us in 1926. I didn't get a chance to tell you about the AFRO banquet. I intended to tell you about the Drill I got when Mr. Arnett shared with me. I got up realiling race to the plant extended to Jasper street. I intended to tell you how carnely they are working on that corner to run realiling race to the plant.

During this series he will dictate intently on certain phases of prison life rarely if ever, disclosed to the public. **OTHER EXCASES FROM MICHAEL GAN PEN** Some of the more daring and desperate escapes will be enumerated for the benefit of the reader.

Soon a large open had been made and the same scars were stretched from the gallery to the hole in the ceiling to the hole and slid down a rope to dom. Before the last man was aware, a guard, hearing the name upon the scene and the final sent to Marquette with a double life sentence hanging over his head. He was a born leader of the criminals and many of his former peers would write plan while others executed. Majda and Perry some months later painted a stump figure their darling to complete mystification of the writer. In broad day-light they stole a painter's ladder across the street and placed it between two buildings and scrambled up amidst the rain of only forced down when guards appeared on the roof at the top of the building with guns levelled in their faces. This will indicate their daring. Majda had with keen observation picked the prison to pieces for the rooftop soaked spot in the roof of the west wing and believing it to have become rotten through the constant drenching based his campaign of Taking advantage of the lentences and let-down of discipline by the new Warden he seured four fellow writers who played cards heard a loud thump that for all the world sounded like a body being thrown from the top gallery to the base, and violence being predominant at the table.

BEATTIE "I don't see how it is the members of your family tell you everything." Mrs. Strong had been sitting on the veranda when she began to argue with a tennis match. "Of course, some children are like that, born that way, I suppose," she continued. "My family never tell me a thing. Ever since I was a child, they have their own counsels. Of course, they are just like their father. He is so reserved." That night, after my grown-up son and daughter had come to my room to say good-night, and the house was still and dark, my mother told me the time when my children were little more than babies. For three years I was an invalid, I had to sit still and see the world go on, and my children would grow away from me and would contract habits. I could never break. Their father, too, was reserved, and possibly that the world was much nicer, I couldn't see the things he was seeing or meet the people he was meeting. Every day we seemed a little further apart. One whole evening we never got to see the estrangement. I made up my mind that so far as in me lay my children should be taught to be lay and free and chutty, and not mean gossiping or male-bearing. Every day when the children came in from school or play, I would ask them what please they were out of. If unpleasant things were told, as they were bound to be occasionally, we passed them we were gifted. We had a layman and had been rough and rude, if teachers had not been quite appreciative, why that was a pity, but if Nell and George would have been not a doubt but things would improve. I tried to show them that it was always the one who really needed pity. It was he who was unhappy. And of course teachers could not always tell how much went wrong, but fairly just and with a little help see both sides of a problem, when we made a name of this telling. I saw in it too, and for the one who made the best record during the week there was a little prize. And by and by they wanted Daddy. "Did I not remember our long evening without a word?" I kept my doubts to myself, however, for which I was very thankful, because the plan worked. After the evening meal was over we chatted. These chats were stuff and formal at first, and they seemed to me, but it was not long before we again against men from a college like Oxford. They couldn't win." But its 1927 now. **Husbands** I really intended telling you about Husbands. What a funny nation they are. Yes, I have one. And I'm just glad they don't see how I can live with him. But really I can't contemplate life without him either. I'd like to tell you—but it's 1927 now. I wanted to tell you about hairdressers. How their tribe increases. What if they should cease? Horses had fabs. How did they increase? I wanted to tell you about old mads. Why they're extinct. But it's 1927 now. **The Brickbats** So I'll just tell you Happy New Year and thank you for the nice things some of you said about me. Also the brickbats you hurled at me. They made me expoey.

Durere were his one, so badly that when it appeared that he would forever lose the use of his arm he was taken to the library where he was short-lived however for they were all captured and back in their custody almost a year later however.

It was the only time children met. Barriers were broken down. Possibly my husband would have liked to have broken those barriers of repression and done their final work. Reserved people when they do show off their reserve soon to say and are so abashed at their temper that they retreat further than ever into their shells. But the confidence of little children are not only contagious but reasuring. Our "experience meetings" as we called them continued all through the summer, and the fuller as the years went on. Father is gone now, the hour is gone, the gorious feeling days of childhood are over and the memory of the dences will go on forever. Some day my boy and girl will be in homes of their own and the memory of the dences will infuse the lives of their boys and girls. Maybe my children were just naturally frank. "Possibly, as Mrs Baird said, 'I would have had the way.' Maybe without training they would have been the same. Who by the time I had found it not been habit of reserve would have been established, and it would have been too much. It was brought about such happy results.

Open Forum For two sessions, now, Grace McDaniels has been making a beacon attempt to hold an Open Forum on Sunday afternoon at the Doughton Lodge 116, this year at Bethel Church. The placards of advertisement on the outside speak most convincingly of the excellent programs it is the result. I tell by someone else—and I don't know how far back the story runs—that sometimes the audience is by far farther away than the "sometimes" and the "fairly"; they are most eloquent words in the sentence. Note, further, that an unused word with such an edge no matter, health or wealth, have never been among those present.

Fisher, Harrell and Russell tor Huntington, as did Canady. Donton and. Washington for. Manhattan, stepped into the \imellgiit because of thelr hard work. | Burton Bil and Joyner also played a Good game for the "Wreckers". SPORT WORLD ALIBIS “goat” of someone or something and thereby seek to cover one’s self from criticism, ‘The incessant cry of the pack in America for “‘Bergdoll,” is but the promulgated howl of; grafters and profiteers who seek behind lipped patriotism to hide their crimes of commission, always, of course, assisted by the masses of well intending, though often ignorant peo- ‘ple—those whom Abraham Lincoln once said, you could fol all the time, and that big group Barnum must have had in mind when he spoke of those who like to be humbugged. In our athletics we constantly see players, managers, coaches, and alumni “cussing-out’ ‘officials, blaming the wea- ther, the equipment, opponent coaches, for happenings in order to excuse short-comings on the part of the player, or: some one connected with the team, Usually the official is the easiest “goat.” You give a dog a bad name and you might as well hang him. Nothing serves so well upon which to hang abuse as do the shoulders of the official. North Carolina-Howard Game ‘A team in North Carolina came to Howard and in two consecutive years failed to fall upon or attempt to secure] Howard’s kick-off behind their goal line, which were con- verted into touchdowns by Howard. In the minds of many of the lads from that school for many a day, the official rob-| bed them of those scores. West Virginia vs. Lincoln In West Virginia, Lineoln was playing Institute. From his own ten yard line the Lincoln center passed the ball back, missed the receiver and the ball rolled behind the end line ‘and was fallen upon by an Institute player. It was held a touchdown for Institute. Again the referee was the goat. Letters were put together describing the incident but mis- stating the facts and sent to a leading football authority, who rendered decision upon the facts as twisted. ‘News articles were sent out reversing the decision of the official. When the facts were presented as they happened the same authority ruled a touchdown. ‘The general public| had been misled and the official lambasted. After the sea-| son Coston and several Lincoln players admitted the stunt} was a publicity one and an “alibi.” Razzing the Official On another occasion a writer asked a member of a team| that had been employing mucker taetics all through a game why it was this team used these tactics, ‘The reply was, we believe in razzing the official, for it brings to us the breaks of the game. One team is famous for not deciding upon officials until the last moment, ‘The idea is that the officials work all thru the season favoring us or trying to get in on the major game. By keeping them oft until the Jast moment and by objecting to all of them the officials get into the game knowing that they will be acceptable to us only if they give us what we want. Coach Harvey at Morehouse Coach Harvey went south, carrying with him modern football. So many officials had proven inefficient that Har- vey was as often coaching officials on the field as off the field in all the sports except, perhaps, baseball. The result was that Harvey was the big “alibi” for losses in many games where Harvey’s teams beat opponents. Gould’s White Coaches In a Howard vs. Hampton game of years ago a player| named Gould spent much playing time making life miser- able for an official by razzing, not serious enough to call for penalty. His constant reminder was, “I was trained by white coaches, where they, know the game and officials are some good.” ‘A little later he missed a pass from center, which rolled behind his goal line and instead of attempting to bring it out he curled around it in the end zone. ‘This official was heard to say to Gould, “There's one play they forgot to teach you where you came from and it is going to cost your team just two points.” He stopped belly-aching for the balance of the day. “Howard-Hampton Another -game at Hampton. Howard had scored a touchdown over Hampton. With five minutes announced by the timer and the big clock plainly visible from the hall tow- er, Hampton started a passing game, Four passes and then a kick. ‘Then a Howard kick, more passes, then a.kick. Time passed on and a lucky pass and Hampton scored. Over fifteen minutes were registered on the town clock after the timer had announced five minutes to play. ‘This was too much for some Toward men. The official was just too awful. Few people know that it takes but 8 to 10 seconds of playing time to make an incomplete pass; the ball is then dead and time is not called for measuring until the ball is actually passed from center on the next play. Injuries, substitutions, passes greatly delay a game. Then the freezing game had not been perfected. The time- keeper in this game bore the brunt of the alibi and became a persona-non communicado to the Howard team for several years, Majority Good Sports Fortunately the great majority of teams are good sports. Tenure of office for coaches is longer and does not solely de- pend upon winning every game. The press has played up acts of good sportsmanship and decried poor losers so that, now a player ot coach would hate to lose his reputation for fairness or good sportsmanship, because he then becomes a liability to the school. If the school is interested in the training of men of char- acter able to stand the gaff in the world that coach cannot long have it in his power to damage the lives of young men in educational institutions. When you hear the alibi look for the errors the coach or player is covering up.

TEAMS CAUSE RUCKUS Association Gives Them 4 Years Only On Athletic Teams COACH WATSON POINTS OUT, THE UNFAIRNESS College Men Eligible 3 Yrs. He Says Regardless Of Prep Records By Wallio Reeves WASHINGTON, D. C. As long as the teams in the C. I. A. A. play and classify preparatory school men and the college men on the same basis when it comes to the eligibility rule, there will never be any mutual understanding between Howard and schools of the conference as far as the four year rule in college football is concerned, stated Coach Watson, Monday. The direct fault is here, he said and there is no reason why the members of the C. I. A. A. cannot see it. Petersburg, Hampton, Union, A & T, and Va. Seminary play men in the College department and the preparatory department on the varsity team, when the cloven should be composed solely of College men. Then when a man enters Howard who has played three years a 'prep' in any of the above schools, the conference is ready. Howard makes the varsity eleven and plays one, two or three years. Miller Trouble That same eligibility rule that the C. I. A. officials say they cannot see through, is the cause and reason why Howard was "black baller" from the Conference. Cushing Academy, played a year then entered Howard. At Union Miller was a preparatory student and was entitled to play four years, then he entered Howard as a freshman and was entitled to play four more. According to Coles, Brown, and Ross cannot play against conference team because they played 3 or 4 years in the C. I. A. A. as "preps" but on the varsity eleven where college men are also participating. The three above men entered Howard as a collegiate to any collegiate rule in the country, are entitled to play three years. Two Schools Eligible To Play Howard Shaw and Lincoln are the only two schools in the C. I. A. A., playing all college men and should at any time have the right to question the rules. The Lincoln are anxious to make rules and then forget to abide by them. In the recent Howard-Lincoln game the Pennsylvanians used two men who were not eligible to play. They were Wade and Young, who transferred from Morgan. That is you go by the one year rule. Howard kept Hinton, one of the best backfield men on the team, the one year rule. Hinton transferred to Howard from City College, Detroit, Mich. Lifting The Ban Howard is not holding a barrier against teams of the C. I. A. A., it is just the opposite. The men who formulate the rules for the team over the course of the Washington Institute has no prep department and that any man who matriculates at that school as a freshman is eligible to play only four years on the varsity team in the country, plays any team in the country regardless of its preparatory men on the varsity squad, but it is wholly unfair to Howard for the C. I. A. A., who are not Howard as freshmen, although they have played three or four years as varsity men. Wilberforce, Livingstone, West Virginia and other schools on Howard's schedule this season were made up in some devel- opment of men and nothing was said about.

COLUMBUS, OHIO—Lacking the polished precision or play and telling offense characteristic of its notable victory during the recent Philadelphia Phi Alpha Flashes, but always in possession of a commanding lead, the Alpha Phi Alpha basketball team of this city, 1926 intramural league champions of Ohio State University, was not to be denied tonight and swore to the dangerous threat to Columbus II-Y, state champions. 35, to 27. Alpha Phi Alpha, through its manager, P.

If Hawn begins his western tour, Bluffed is tentatively scheduled for two games, the first here on Feb. 19. Other games are being negotiated with the Omegas of Wilberforce, the Purple Pirates of Greenfield, Ohio, Akron Keysburg, burg, and teams in Cleveland, Cincinnati, Dayton, Washington, several West Virginia cities, and an attempt is being made to arrange a National Championship Alpha game, unofficial at least with the Alpha Phi Alpha team of New York City. Several other teams, especially in Kentucky, are sought for games. Any teams desiring dates should communicate with the manager. ELKS,44,FLASHES,25 CLEVELAND. O.—The Philadelphia Flashes after drowning DeHart Hubbard's Chester Comms, bowed to the Cleveland Elks, here Monday night, in a one-sided affray. 44-25. The flashes lacked punch at the onset of the second half and the locals held up well by points. In the first half the visitors played a fairly good game, presenting a rather buffling passing attack. Hampton Stars In the second half Hampton, center, and John, forward, caged an even dozen field goals between them. Others in the locals line-up were Willett, Anderson and Harris. Lincoln is on a collegiate standpoint. Why not drop the eligibility controversy, get out a football schedule and go to playing, says Watson.

Baker was a rather canguous man to the point that he was kept well under their eagle eyes in the final frame. The passing and frequent outbursts of speed of the Washington Five kept the Hampton boys busy. The stars for the visitors were Baltimore name, Sellman. Normal's guard was also troublesome at times, especially when he left his guard position and wandered up around the basket. Scoring, for the most part, was done by alternate fashion, although Hampton rather held the lead throughout the game. The preliminary contest was played between two of the class teams.

HOWARD HI OUINTET DOWNS BEAVERS WILMINGTON, DEL.—The Howard High Basketball team defeated the fast Beaver five, Friday night, in a heated battle at St. Joe's Hall, by the score of 31-11. Howard was the star to the finish, Hopkins, the fast guard and Butler, the banky center, led the attack by pulling some peculiar shots from the field. Capt.

Now Howard gym last Saturday night. Morgan team is the fastest aggregation ever seen on a basketball court in the east. The whole team is quick as a Blue Ridge bob cat and worked together like well-oiled locusts. Locations Morgan had the ball from jump off under Howard's basket before the Elisons realized what was going on. Wheatley, Jones and Hall are six footers or there are掌. Morgan and Clare are short. All of them can shoot as well as guard, with equal facility. Four Men Down Court In a basketball team there has been considerable talk for the past two or three seasons of a five man defense. However, this year has brought out a four man offense which is an innovation in this section. Under this scheme only one man. Wheatley, remains in the neighborhood of the goal while his four teamsters, passing or dribbling the ball, go down under the opponents goal in an effort to shoot a The Danger Point Naturally this formation is fraught with danger if the other side takes the ball away from Morgan because there is only one man left to guard the Morgan goal. Drew provides for this eventually by having in Brown a man fast enough to hike it back to his defensive position in front of the goal whenever Morgan side the ball is down. He commissions such a big basketball court that it requires two officials and at the beginning it looked as if the Morgan team would not be able to lust out the whole game without substitutes, because of the fast pace they set. Time Out For Best "Time out" for rest enabled them, however, to turn the trick and except for disqualification, the five men who entered the game originally would have been able to complete it. Howard used two teams as they did in the game with the Athletics in Baltimore and the second team although fresh was able to do nothing with the Morgan crew. After three or four minutes the first team was sent back in again. Disqualifications Howard lost two men and Morgan three because of personal fouls in the game. The summary shows that Morgan committed 10 chances and Howard 14. Morgan committed 14 chances for a free throw. Morgan made six points. Out of her 17 chances for a free throw, Howard six points. Hill shot three out of four, "Lanky" Jones missed three, "Pinky" Brown one out of four, and "Cutie" Brown one out of four. For Howard Spears made one out of three. Simpson out of three of Trigg two out of three, Dunderman, none, Jerome Wood, none, Costes four out of six. Howard had been able to make all of her free throws, she would have won 30 to 25. Morgan made nine field goals and Howard seven. "Catie" Brown Hurt "Cutie" Brown blocking a player jumped into the air, fell on his face early in the game with a sound that convinced many spectators that he had broken one or several bones in his neck and was able to utter an awful and resumed play. Big tall Spears of Howard, also had a mazy fall later in the game. Trigg guarded Hill so closely that he had to move the Morgant to allow the able catcher with the basket for more than one field goal. "Cutie" Brown camped on Simpson's trail with equal effectiveness. Tom Wheatley played his usual stellar game as standing guard and showed no desire to be one of the best in the business. The Light Question Whether intentionally or not, one of the lights in the gym, the one directly over the Howard goal was not lighted during the first half. Between the periods this light was turned on so that when the two teams changed goals both had lights over the haskets. Four Deep Spectators were seated four deep all around the court and were standing at both ends in some instances spilling out over the edge of the court. Fans were also standing four deep around the balcony. President Mordecai Johnson was on hand and because of crowded conditions was forced to stand during a large part of the game. "Duck" Gibson "Duck" Gibson did a good job as scorer for Morgan when he called attention to the fact that Spears had been taken out of the game and had been sent to return again. Howard protested but the umbrella ruled against them. New Ball Morgan came on the court early, led by Captain "Lanky" Jones with a crew, led by Captain Spears had also two new balls. It took the umpire several minutes to determine which one of the three should be No Dancing The Howard-Morgan game proved that the Howard gym could be a place where there is no dance afterward.

For the second time this season the Orange fans had a chance to see the famous Tuxedo Tigers, New Jersey's most famous and sensational team, in action. The Tigers invaded the stamping grounds of the Elite Big Five last Friday night at the Tiger Stadium, dominated to the fans that they can hold their own against the best of them. Manager J. Richard Lee believes the boys have found themselves and with the addition of Jimmy Tuxedo, are hundred per cent improved. The Elites had in their line-up two well known Brooklyn boys in Stevenson and Brown of the Superiors. But at that the Orange team couldn't stop the East Orange lads from piling in, even though that "Slippers" Raymond and Jimmy Baker stood out as stars on the defensive, breaking up plays and interrupting passes and sniffing many would-be shots. While Dean and Pencock were leading stars on the offensive. H. Raymond G. Jones and "Bus" Jordan comes in for their share of Todd's team.

Tuxedo Players Arrived After Game With Bucs Was Over Auto Breakdown Delayed Players Enroute To Atlantic City In a thrilling game, the first half of which ended with the Miner Normal School of Washington on the zero end of a 10-0 score, the first Doughlass 14-quintet tossed their way to 32-15 victory in their own gymnasium, Friday. The local huds were right at home on their spacious court and held the visitors scoreless for 14 minutes. Normal players with a series of substitutions were unable to remedy the conditions, new forwards were unable to shoot and new guards were unable to keep shifty "Cab" Calloway and agile "Babe" Jones from scoring. Normal players displayed ability that proves that they have the makings of splendid collegiate or pro-material. Calloway tossed six from the floor and Jones accounted for five field goals and touchdowns, kickett, an elongated foot, who held the center position is alsooming. Chief scorers among the visitors were Baltimore, Sellman and Jones. Sellman coped three field goals, Baltimore two and Jones two. The latter also made good one from the foul line.

Never before in my years in business, I have offered an excuse for losing a game of basket ball before now. But since the account of the game published in your sport column centered on Hill, Jones and Clark of Morgan fame I would like the public to know why these boys who are also Seaside lads have been handed to give such great joy to the Buccaneers' victory over them. FOOTBALL SCHEDULE IS IN THE MAKING The Lincoln-Morgan basketball game scheduled to take place January 21, has been indefinitely called off by the Pennsylvania. We left for Atlantic City on the afternoon of the game in two divisions, using the carrying trip. We our carrying the three Morgan stars and a brother of Pinky Clark who is mascot and Peacock Coach in the team, made successfully. Coach Drew, of Morgan, said the Lions stated that mid-year examinations which take place during that week forced them to cancel the court contest. A game with the Omega Psi Pi team of Washington is tentatively planned for Saturday, January 22. The team's Tossers are very much over their victory handed Howard and feel that they have erased the first notch toward another Eastern Championship. While the second car with five other players and myself was following a half mile behind, suffered two break-downs. This or course, the players would have to complete the court with the mascot to complete the number of players required for a contest. They hoped every minute we would show up but as we arrived the players had to arrive until after the game. May I ask if four men can defeat five? Therefore we handed the Buccaneers the victory on a silver plate. If no fault on the skiside lads we had to carry out the challenge they we had nothing to brag over. To Meet West Virginia Again The Morgan warriors are all the football players Howard, November 15, next West Virginia, Lincoln, Wilberforce and Union have tentative dates with the locals.

Thoughts Of The Founder Thoughts Of The Founder If you are continually thinking of what people are going to say about you, you are not going to accomplish much. Pick out your task, follow it to the very end, make up your mind what you are trying to do, where you are trying to go; go there, do it. Lay down a rule of life and live up to it. "Do your own thinking," said Napoleon, "Think slowly, act promptly." Be punctual. If you say seven o'clock, be there at seven. Parents, see to it that your children get all of life that there is in it. Let the trifles go, look after the fundamentals. Liberia Next Acting on the theory that American investments in foreign countries must be protected even if it means armed intervention, the United States has intervened in the San Domingo conflict, recently the American Republic of Nicaragua, where the United States some time ago had purchased the right of an inter-oceanic canal for $3,000,000. In addition American interests own seven million dollars worth fresh and sugar concessions in the Central American republic which is endangered by revolution. With the example, of protecting American interests in these other two countries before us it looks as if the United States Navy must be prepared to protect American Capitals, it is invested all over the world. Mr. Harvey S. Firestone, president of the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company, of Jiron, answering a question in the House Committee last year regarding the actual need for necessary backlogging to the necessary for his proposed development of the rubber plantation in Liberia said. "I do not know as I could give you a concrete suggestion except that we need the cooperation of our government in a country where our capital is invested in order to safeguard our nation," Nicaragua incident seems to be a warning to Liberians and all other small countries where American capital is invested, and which at the same time can be easily spanked, that any political unrest or revolution is going to happen with the quick appearance of American warships and American marines. County Teachers The fight for equal salaries regard to race or sex in Baltimore City has been won. The fight for equalization of county teachers' pay is now ahead of us. It was no easy matter in Baltimore City. It will be harder still in the rural district. Statistics on the enrollment in schools of the state-city published recently in the AFRO show that while the enrollment in the county schools is decreasing year by year, enrollment in city schools is increasing. In the words, parents in rural schools wherever possible, are sending them to Baltimore City to get the benefit of better school systems, and better teachers. Not only the children are moving cityward, but adults as well. In other words, Baltimore is not safe until all of Maryland is safe. Crime and disease are the two best friends ignorance ever had. The Maryland State Teachers' Association in their recent annual meeting here went on record as urging the legislature to equalize the salaries of county teachers. They are backed up by the report of the State Board of Education, which believes that colored teachers should be paid less than white teachers. At present the average county teacher's pay is $738. The average city teacher's pay is $1419, nearly twice as much. White-colored teachers average pay over $1,000. The Negro Year Book shows that the annual expenditure per child of\school age in Maryland is $34.70, per colored child, $17.17. It's our job to prove to the State Board of Education, to the governor and the legislature, that we cannot make 100 per cent citizens out of colored children while protesting them with only half an education. We must prove to them that as trustees and guardians of state funds they cannot with a clear conscience distribute public money with partiality. This is a plea that must be made on the basis of common justice and law. Only legislators must be convinced that it isn't a question of white or black, but of right or wrong, honesty or dishonesty. There is no middle ground. Page Sixteen Welfare and the Square Deal Afro-American Building, 623 N. Eutaw RO.AMERICAN COMPANY, and Publisher, 1356 to 1922 D.

Those who seek the councilmatic office as a means of personal advertisement or for any reason exasperate the city and the city should be advised early that the race is a thing too important to be trifled with. Baltimore has a population of 110,000 colored people. One sixth of the population is without a single representative in the city government. Several years ago Messrs. Warner T. McGuinn and William L. Fitzgerald served one term in the council. They failed at re-election because of a divided constituency. If we have profited at all by this experience it is necessary that some show us how personal ambition and willing to sacrifice for the public good. By all means there should be a conference of political leaders. Haiti, Liberia For nearly a year now the post of minister to the republic of Liberia. West Africa, has been vacant. The resignation of the minister. Solomon Clark has been chargé de affairs. For nearly a score of years there has been no colored man appointed as minister to Haiti. Haiti and Liberia have always been regarded as two foreign countries which not only welcomed but expected American diplomats. The president, Garrard, thinking ahead of many of the occupants of the White House, planned to appoint a colored man as minister to one of the South American republics. Assassination, robbed him of the opportunity. The list of black men who have served in diplomatic posts in Haiti include some of the most brilliant Americans in our history. Among them are John L. Langston, one time a member of the House of Representatives, from Virginia, serving in the terms of President Arthur and Grover Cleveland, and Benjamin Harrison, by John R. Durham, like wise under Harrison; Harry W. Furniss, appointed by Taft and Rossevelt; M. P. Powell, named by President McKinley. Mr. Bassette, the first colored man appointed as minister to Haiti served in the presidency of state of United States, said of Mr. Bassette and also of John Mercer Langston, his successor at Port au Prince, that "he wishes that one-half of his ministers abroad performed their duties as well as Bassette and Langston." Liberia has been served by a number of distinguished black Americans. There was never any question of appointing colored men to these diplomatic posts (till white capitals) begin to invest large sums in both countries. The ministers to Liberia succeeded themselves in an unending string until Firestone went to the West African republic last year and began the investment of $100,000,000 in rubber plantations. Our intention in Haiti ostensibly to help the Haitians but in reality to protect the National City Bank of Haiti is to protect the interests who have invested a few dollars in Haiti, marks the end of colored men appointed as minister to that government. Ninety-seven per cent of the population of the Virgin Island is colored but ever since we purchased these have been ruled by a white United States naval governor. These diplomatic posts are not only few in number but comparatively small and insignificant. Only one or two men can occupy them. The United States is any more than a successful man can earn in business or in the professions. What is significant and important, however, is that the United States shall continue to recognize its colored citizens as eligible for diplomatic careers. Haitian and Liberian posts occupied by white men mean that diplomatic careers are as securely closed to colored people as a career to colored people in the United States Navy. No one in this country believes the Haitian state has expressed the preference for a white minister to our Department of State. However, even if this has been done under the instruction of the naval officials and the white capitalists who are in control of Haitian affairs there is no reason why we should take the announcement The AFRO-AMERICAN does not contend that a colored man shall be immediately appointed minister to Liberia or to Haiti. We do maintain, however, that no President or secretary of state counting themselves representative of the whole people can justly close the doors of the diplomatic career in the area of the zone solely on the ground of color. Call VE rnon 6016 DAYBY DAY WITH WILLIAM N. JONES The Bank Of Health This isn't much of a story as stories go these days. Its scene is not laid on the broad highway of life, but in a little one room church on an alley street. William James, 20 years old, 848 Pine street, passed away last week. Nothing unusual about a man dying in his 29th year, but talking to his little flock a minister tells them he died because he had overchecked his account in the bank of health. You, perhaps, have never that of health in terms of banking accounts, and that is why this story, although not much of a story, is unusual. "You write a check," said this minister, "on your health account every time you sin; and sooner or later the cashier Death, send back a slip on your last check telling you 'returned for inefficient funds' and thats the end." Not much of a church story coming from this little alley church, as scriors go; but when you read it you will probably ponder how much health funds you still have in your bank and when will the Grim Cashier your last account "balanced." Why We Fight Eugene Gordon of the Boston Post, whose yearly survey of race newspapers have attracted wide attention, deprecated in his 1826 review in Opportunity Magazine the fight made by the Afro-American last year on the publication of the celebrated Roland Hayes. We do not know from what angle Mr. Gordon views the Baltimore incident, and perhaps there are many others who whirl around with the delicat of that unfortunate affair, who may not understand why a journal who had given more space than any other paper to the author, would make such an issue of his segregated concert here. A careful analysis of the consequences of that stand at that time will show that nothing has been so far reaching. It required dauntless courage and the gritting of teeth to face an issue like this and fly into the face of the accumulated popularity of and tremendous sympathy for Roland Hayes. But as between this sympathy on the one hand and significant rise of the horny headed monster of segregation on the other THERE COULD BE BUT ONE DECISION IN BALTIMORE. In fact it was this threat of passive approval of Jim Crow on the part of one of such wide acclaim and which would have been interpreted as at least tolerant submission of those of highest attainment and leadership we have in the race, which it was necessary to fight. For years, in Balatimore as in perhaps no other city, leaders have had to fight without quarter the spirit of Jim Crow as it crowded colored folk into ally living; as it robbed them of school funds; as it has and is still keeping them out of most profitable jobs and lives of employment. Every specific problem we have, from our high death rate and disgraceful crime commission, and the open and recognized right to bar us from equal participation in governmental affairs, IS BASDOWN. THAT IS WHY WE MUST FIGHT IT WITHOUT THOUGHT OF SELF INTEREST WHENEVER IT SHOWS IN THEIR STATUS. WHEN IT SHOWS IT HEADS AMONG THOSE WHITE POLK WE ARE SUPPORTED BY THEM. WHEN IT AT LEAST MUST NOT MISUNDERSTAND. Not only in every white theatre, but in every bank where we deposit our money; in many of the stores we buy; in many of the churches we attend; in Edgar Allen Poe's "Raven," Jim Crow is sitting, sullenly sitting and casting his shadow on the floor. WE GRANT THEM RELUCTANTLY THE RIGHT TO DO THIS. BUT WE CANNOT LET EVEN ONE OF US MESS DIRECTLY INTO OUR FRONT DOOR. Within The Group Another insufficient factor against which there must always be alert position is the tendency on them to get the mass interest in racial progress. There is a swilight zone in both the south and the north of the atmosphere of racial contact where many faller between the solitary desire to out themselves off from the community they are living in, and their duty to struggle along with the rank and file. In every community they are misreared, they are brassier, more frontright. They were no agitation, even if their equally deserving slater or brother is misreared, just so long as the themselves enjoy coveted privileges. As long as there lives the spirit of segregation and Jim Crow, the previous or previous condition of servitude, there must be no compromise in the light against it. No temporary advantage of apology could ever pay for the injustice to millions that any one single act of this kind will to the credit of Roland Hayes, let it be said, that he spoke out when he was in the army, and now a way he probably would never have done had not the Afro-American made the fight, and his voice accented on the tremor across the continent. But what, you ask, was the good of it all? Just recently when the inter- national team from Oxford and the Libyan team went similar management let it be known in no uncertain way, that the SCOULD BE NO SEG- REGATION. White friends, awakened by the prodding of a just complaint, are now in the distribution of school funds, and in Baltimore the shadow of Jim Crow is being lifted here, and there. For all a wise Providence started out this struggle for ex- istence wherein all groups get on- touch, which they fight and con- tend to do.

The questions raised by the so-called Truth in the Afro-American for Jan. 5, 1927, do serve to show in no uncertain tone that he is desirous of being known as the converse to his present appellation. One would little doubt that he is desirous of being civilized, preyously unthought of prosperity, that a Caucasian with all the advantages and privileges, possesses only limited knowledge.

To the Editor: Judging from several articles that appeared in the Daily papers, The Democratic Bosses of Baltimore are dying. The Democratic Bosses W. Jackson in the discard, it is very possible that those who favor the elimination of Mr. Jackson from the unimminent of his strength, Mr. Jackson according to the opinion of both Jew and non-Jew his made him a deputy to the Citizens of Baltimore, by reason of his fair dealing with each and every group, that he has had to deal with. The day of the Bosses picking the public has gone on gun pollution. Bosses may pick their candidate but the voters are the ones who must do the electing. Mayor Howard W. Jackson, is the mayor of the man the Democratic bosses or the Republican bosses can place at the head of their ticket. If the phile is right the bosses had better make an investigation of the man they attempt to him in the discard. Mayor Jackson is said to have given the people of Baltimore the very best administration that the City has had in a generation. Why does it may be possible at times that those who are at the head of Government are unable to manage the political bosses? The fact that the political boss can not handle his man as he would like to, some times make strange bed-fellows. America is fast coming to the point, that the people who are in the (final analysis the Government) are to be reckoned with. We are aware of the political bosses has awakened to this fact. Thousands of Baltimore citizens demand that the bosses place Howard W. Jackson at the head of the board. We wonder will the bosses ignore their requests? Henry F. Arnold.

I also hope the candidates will get together we decide on our purpose and have a race representative in the Council. We have at least ten voters in the 14th and I feel we could get together. Mr. Payne, Lawyer Payne talked for my sister in her case in court to keep her from losing her home and after he left the books, the Judge said Mr. Gerlock must give my sister her home back. I had a lawyer, Mr. Thomas C. Willingham, and he said, he did not know why Mr. Payne would even go into court with our case, because the case was no good. But after the case was settled with Mr. Payne in front of all the other people and us, and told Mr. Payne, he was sorry that he told us what he was going to do only because we got our home but because the way Mr. Payne talked.

It was a common thing for officers, after getting drunk at Smith's Brandywine Run and drunk at the drunkenness away. They try to reform boys by brutal force and do not know any other method. They harden the boys and help to make them worse criminals, and they don't care. Many boys are turned out as holdup men and thieves. If the school had better men to look after the inmates' future welfare and if they get some schooling out boys we need better future education. Pyles has little schooling, is old-time.

A southern white man once said to a colored man is just the same as a white man to me, but if I associate with them (colored) the white people won't recognize me. The basic reason for jim-crowism, segregation, etc., is to keep the magnetism of the colored man from the white woman. That's it, lock, stock and barrel, the others fake shoes; when the sun is down, the shoe is on the other foot. It must not be taken at its face value. Those who are just one jump at the fence will have the others fake shoes; when the sun is down, the shoe is on the other foot. It has come under my observation that Nature, in her creation, has endowed all animal life with hatred. That includes all cow, beast, Truth and all man. The more civilized we become, the further we are removed from hatred. As to "race wars", why, it seems, is not the same as to one in these U. S. at least. "Coward? Who is the greater coward? Why does it take a dozen or more whites to take one colored man to the man in the street of a colored man single-handed, as I am of a grizzly bear? Invention? What could we invent within sixty years? It requires the man to the man for the whites to discover the use of steam, telegraph, telephone, electricity and he just discovered radio a few days ago. The birds have been flying over his head for quite some time, and he learned to fly! Notwithstanding his financial aid, time, liberty and non-incumbrance. There's a reason (slavery) for the colored man being in the rear, but there is no excuse the whites may offer. "The Negro filthy?" The poor whites write in a walk when it comes to filthiness! Jas. C. Blair. 169 Moore St. Brooklyn, N. Y. AURO Allows Truth To Make A Fool Out Of Himself To Amuse Its Readers. To the Editor: I have to appear and silly by bickering with the Sun-Up Mountain Man, Frank Miller, but I am not a militant race woman in my mot to desire just one more teen whack at him this week, since you are still allowing him to make a fool out of Frank. Your little single-celled brain isn't hitting on all six yet, is it? I see you have again asked us questions we have been asked with such wisdom and which have all been well answered by several intelligent people who have tried to teach you someone you, we are prepared for argument, but when you simply repeat the same list of questions each week, and can't take us up on any of our answers, we are admitted we have stumped. Suppose you surprise us next week by telling us a little about the poor Kentucky white trash who never wear shoes and whose women smoke corn cobs and have no use for soap; who think France is the best country to read you read my lengthy (and it had to be long to thoroughly reply to all your dumbo letters) epilogue—why should I read you? It seems all you know how to do is ask questions; the same ones over and over. You say I was as good as you, you had better select your undertaker, Frank, for you read wrongly. What I said was that I should that straight. I dare say you read all of the lengthy article, too. Liar, since you came back with my last book, I bucked in at the very end, to determine whether or not you would really read it all. I am proud to have read it, and I am different from such as you. So, in conclusion, let me beg of you that you condescend to give us some sound condescension for our exasperation so frightfully, and tell us what nationality you really are. I will answer your question about why so many white people hate the Jews, and that the same that exists between the Russians and the Jews: between the Armenians and the Turks: between the Orkmenians and the Caucasians. From the Persians and the ad infinitum. Everybody hates some one else of another race, but they usually have arguments that are founded upon something more than any of your cracker moonshining. America is behind in cultivation and culture, being in itself a mongrel melting pot of a country made of people from all over Europe, so that explains why they look down and ostracize the Negro. The majority of the white people in this big world do not make any difference as to their place in the world. As soon as we succeed in getting rid of Frank Miller, America will be that much nearer Old World culture. However, as long as you don't start writing us that you are Napoleon, himself, you are a Napoleon. The Congo Lady. From Pennsylvania. Baltimore, Md. There should be four "FS": Reading, Riting, Ritming, and Reason. Just after the Civil War, when Negro children were first allowed to teach in the naturally proud of their learning day by day, and especially of their ability, to deal in "inggers" and "ritmettet." Two such little Negro boys sat on a fence and testing each other's knowledge of the mysteries of mathematics, when finally one put to the other this problem: "See dem birds settin' on dat limb dere.

The Week's Best Story REASON vs. 'RITHMETIC "None" raid the other coolly. Heard and Seen In Baltimore Continuing our *cur a usado* against the popular past time of ignorance we are again willing to acknowledge knowledge found between the pages of our leaveless dictionary in an effort to produce bigger matter among the masses. Last wook the professor discussed the most deadly admixture to which the human kind is subject, that is, love (technical name *Appleseason*). This week will talk about other admixtures. Anywhere after the age of six months if you allow yourself to make a success at anything, you may contract a swelling of the throat with a serious attack or egotism. This is often confused with rhoematism but the latter can cause a rhoematism. The former is only cured with a couple of socks in the nose. This disease is common among doctors' wives, widows who have collected insurance enough to have a new coat, boys enough to send them to college, enough to send them to college, and mothers of any kid. The symptoms shown when the disease first makes its appearance is the effect it has on the respiration rate. The disease did it and breathe the air in which they were raised and find it necessary to move into a different neighborhood where the atmosphere is more aristocratic. The disease does not enter the bloodstream and do not invent excuses for not speaking to the folks who knew them when the old man was a hod carrier. The diet is also effected. The stomach, an organ of the body seldom used by Bismarck, used it often under that it can no longer digest such foods as corn and cabbage and will only react on Crab a la Nowburg,蟹 a la Rien and such foods. The feet are next to be effected. The feet as you may know are those basket shaped shoes used for transportation and the cultivation of bunions. Persons suffering from ego find it impossible to wear shoes that cost more than $100 and more than they can afford to pay. Scientists have been of the opinion that disease is conveyed by the ego bug in much the same way that mosquitoes carry malaria, but recent facts have shown that germs in the air. For instance, the atmosphere around universities seems laden with little microbes and plants have finally fallen silent after one day in the institution. While the disease is not contagious, many youths refuse to let their parents visit them at college for fear they may contract the aliment. That is where the cases in a little where the parents are on a rasy rest on their English. The effect that egotism has on the eyes is most apparent in young and doting parents, who see in their squwinking brat the example of God's handwork. The father recovers the first night he has to walk the floor until dawn trying to keep the youngster quiet, but mothers have been known to go to their knees to try to resist itself in producing that worthless hunk of humanity whose surname is the same as theirs. The air is contaminated with ego germs whenever a fraternity or sorority has a convention or time, city officials find it necessary to fumigate the places frequented by the members to keep still in the air of superiority given off. This is also the case when a number of super-bears gather to solve the race problem, discuss ways and means to bring up about reform of any kind, elect a pastor of a Baptist church. Dress any ordinary individual in the uniform of a commanding potentate of the uniform rank of any secret order and be prepared for the painful cases of self importance on record. Congress is considering an appropriation for the construction of a fleet of floating sanitariums for care and treatment of all persons suffering from hardness and soon from plague. In addition, an eminent physician will soon be put into practice. The idea is to crowd all people, who say "Don't do it that she is not a member of our set"; "I am an authority on this or that", and are guilty of other "that", and are guilty of these boats and take them far out to sea. The boats are so constructed that at the deepest part of the ocean the bottom is pitched and the patient is cured. Kelly Miller Says On the whole the Negro press is the greatest voice for righteousness now crying in the wilderness to the American conscience. It is the voice of the masses of the people. As illustration of my meaning, I had an article in The Educational Review for December, on "The Higher Education of the Negro at the Cross Roads"—I very seriously doubt whether five hundred Negroes in the United States saw or heard of this contribution. On the other hand I broadcasted a New Year Release in the Negro press, and judge that it reached the eye of three million readers. Second Generation Of College Bred Negroes During the Christmas holiday I delivered the annual address before the grand session of the Kappa Alpha Pi fraternity at Howard University. My general theme was "The Responsibility of the Second Generation of Educated Negroes." Some observations which I made have caused lively discussions and sharp rebuttal. It was my intention to present the actualities of the situation, and not to indulge laudatory eloquence and meaningless compiti- Broadly speaking there have been two generations of educated grogues in education and business, let us say that they are divided by the century mark; those graduating prior to 1900 repeat education and those finishing since that date will represent the second generation. Both Products of Philanthrophy The two generations overlap and combine in many ways. Both comparison and contrast might seem invidious, but they are the product of philanthropy and have the elememnonary complex. They look for help outside the face instead of seeking help. They look to stand in the cooling shade of the shadow cast by the white man's institutions rather than that they cast their own shadow. They both seek places on the white man's pay roll instead of making pay rolls for The chief function of the first generation was to demonstrate to the world that the race was capable of taking in the higher education; the second generation must prove its ability to succeed. Up to nineteen hundred there are possibly fewer than one thousand Negro students are ten times that number. Then a Negro college graduate from a Northern University was given a gift to attain an amazement—now they are so common as to arouse no curious interest. The first generation faculty base the university family foundation, the second generation had considerable of an educated background and had a new issue is much more thoroughly educated in the letter and technique than the older: but misses much of the power, the spirit and in- The first generation is now passing away, I am the middle man, and overarching the both forward back. I can stand as a dayman between the two and hay a propitating hand upon them. The call is to the surviving educated man and woman of the day, whether of the old or the new generation. The old or the new generations are the movements of leadership and direction of the vast estate involved in the possibilities of twelve million of their own assets. Let us understand the ability of the disposition to meet this challenge? Let us for convenience divide it into several constituent elements and deal with them severally and separately. Let us then look upon them with political, social and cultural aspects. In the first place the educated Negro has not yet been able to arouse the enthusiasm of the missionaries of the church, says does not in general appeal to the rank and file. Heroin lies his greatest imbecility. For his function with rumors he has influenced his influence even unto the uttermost and the nothermost. The Catholic holcarity reaches the household of fewy, who are humbest Catholic in Christendom. The Jewish elite reaches and inspires every member within the household of fewy, who are separated from the mass life of his group by a gulf across which his influence scarcely leaps. The denomination over which the educated clergy preside, such as the Presbyterian, Congregational, Episcopalian and the rest do not have the race. The more populous and enthusiastic denominations, such as the Methodist and Baptist, are clergy who educated and cultured clergy. The Y. M. C. A. which is under well educated and trained auspleases falls utterly to quicken the mind of the young manhood of the race or to arouse general enthusiasm. The N. A. A. C. P. A. are offered by the best college equipment within the group, they are of the multitude, and the man must maintain no wide popular emotion. Violent denunciation of wrong with holding out hope of deliverance might be supposed to arouse the slave to insurrection and the suppression to reshape the response to the appeal of N. A. A. C. P. and the Equal Rights League, that their annual collections amount to scarcely a half cent a piece from the constituency to whose welcoming reform movements are devoted. On the other hand, the Elks, the Pyhltians, the Odd Fellows and others whose leadership grows out of the masses, coral and sand by the hundreds of thousands and collect milions of money. In politics and industry we find the same lack of relationship. It will not do for the col- Of Philanthropy First Generation Passing Away Enthusiasm Of The Masses Moral Enthusiasm And Industry Saturday, Jan. 15. Ilege man to stand off in his impotent aloofness and condemn the masses for failure to appreciate their exalted proffer of service. The masses have to fault, merely misfortunes. The educated man and woman made some means and methods of reaching them, just as the are, without one plea. Otherwise the higher education of the race will be pronounced a failure. Greatest Exception Negro Press Perhaps the greatest exception to the general rule about the Negro press is one in the Negro press. At one time legged Negro spurned to write for the colored publications, on the ground that the editorship and mechanical perfection of the it would belittle their name appear on their pages. But now the Negro press continues to edit the editorship and ownership of college men. Our three widely read journals, the Chicago Journal, the AFRAMERICAN the Pittsburgh Courier, are owned and edited by designd men. Negro journals are read and influencing masses of race as no other agency is effecting. The appeal when they often make seems offbeat, the editors cultivated in good old college days. But the masses must be reached stimulated even at some same academic standards. For Righteousness When I read the Negro press and look over the pages upon pages of the devoted to crime and crime forms of amusement, my most nature is disposed to revolt. But I am streaded by the thought that the appeal must be made to the masses in such terms as to this. This is precociously the lesson that the talented tenth must learn. Of the whole the Negro press is the greatest voice for righteousness now crying in the wilderness to the American conscience. It is the voice of the masses of the people. At illustrations and articles in The Educational Review for December, on The Higher Education of the Negro, they seriously doubt whether five hundred Negroes in the United States saw or heard of this contribution. On the other hand I broadened the New York Negro press to judge that it reached the edge of three million readers. Artistic Form The elite is now making appeal in artistic form under the guise of the New Negro. This movement should be watched with great interest and not with fear. The chief burden of concern is to reach the white public, rather than the Negro reader. Appeal is too often made to the coaster and cruder side of merely to amuse the white race, clown used to do for the court. There is a certain neurotic strain that may forbade the author permanently poor. We authorize white readers. We feel proud to get an article in the white magazine than in the Messenger, and it is true that the educated Negro must serve as a middle man between the races. It is he who must make the appeal to the black member that Pharaoh gives heed to Negros only in so far as he is convinced that he speaks whom he purports to represent. The educated Negro must first make influence and understanding with his own race before he impressions on the white mind. My space is too limited for treatment. I promise an early release upon the future. I promise his rightful place in commanding the pulpits in the great deposition, and of five additional places in which our moral Illiterate fathers helped us to us. But first I must pay my respect to Robert L. Wynn and the Pluusburg Courier concerning Nestor Sanchez. This next. Southern Bunk Southern Bunk (P. N. S.) Congressman William Francis Stevenson, democrat, or South Carolina, while in debate in the South just a few days ago, said he just a few days ago significant remarks concerning the Negro and the ballot in the dear old South. Among other things, Congressman Stevenson told you that in South Carolina the Constitution gives any man the right to vote that has $300 worth property taxes, or WHAT CAN READ THE CONSTITUTION There is not a coined man in State of Georgia that can be counted and vote if he comes within that limitation, and when he hits his vote is counted. We count and we give them (to coined people) the right to vote and they want to come down and we whether we are going up to the Fifteenth Amendment In answer to a question by Congressman Walmuth, republican of New York, asking "How large a colored population in South Carolina votes today?" Congressman Steven son replied, "NONE." Civilized U. S. A. (From Time) A Nearby man insisted. Blooded men tied his hands and feet together, where his hands held them. His back he locked them against another rope, took a turn around the rear axle of a automobile and started off at railway tracks. Saturday, Jan. 15, 1927 LIBERIA SEEKS FREEDOM FROM ALIEN CHURCH Every Nation, Says Pres. King, Must Know God For Itself MISSIONARIES THANKED FOR SUPPORT IN PAST Withdrawal of Foreign Religious Control and Financial Support Urged The withdrawal of foreign support and control of religious organizations in Liberia W. Africa is presaged by President C. B. D. King in his annual message to the country. Copies of the messages became available today through the office of Dr. Ernest Lyon, Liberian Central General. President King declares Liberia must find God for itself and be adds that control of foreign religious bodies, as well as their financial support must be withdrawn. Carrying out this notion will afford religious bodies in America and Europe which are spending a quarter of dollars yearly. The A. M. E. Church spends about $50,000 annually, the M. E. Church, $25,000 and the E. Church, $5,000. All of these churches have bishops in Liberia who will be affected. Pres. King's message reads in part: "Iferee concluding this Message I cannot but postpone particle phenomena, to the new way now moving through the Nation towards Liberica's religious independence by complete severance from all foreign Episcopalian Church Servitude The incompatibility of political freedom with religious servitude the Laborians are now beginning to realize. The British Nation realizing this incompatibility, throw off the Ecclesiastical yoke of the English Church and declared the Founded Church of England. For the same reason the Protestant Episcopal Churches of that great country were abolished. The Ecclesiastical Government and control of their respective parishes bodies under their own appointed American Ecclesiastical Heads in cooperation with the Republican spirit of their country and their government. Withdraw Control The Churches in Liberia in their awakening to national and racial consciousness must and will process them these very lines. The control of foreign religious Bodies must withdrawn, as well as support, from the Churches in Liberia. If the former why not the Since we are supporting and maintaining our own Government, we ought to be able to support and maintain our own churches. In fact, this is a duty and a possibility devoiding us from a free, sovereign and independent People. No sovereign, independent Nation should devote otherwise. Must Have Own God Every nation, like every individual, must know God for itself and not for another. It is the most appreciative of the religious guidance and assistance we have received in the pass from our foreign Spiritual teacher, who recognizes the presupposed benefits which have accrued to us therefrom, but nevertheless, we hear from the sounds of the great bell of time announcing the face that the hour has arrived for Jesus's spiritual freedom and religious independence. To this call of freedom every true and patriotic Libyan must respond to the imperative of his religious faith or creed. PASTORS ENTER FOR SIX WEEKS RALEIGH, N.

CHATTANOOGA, TENNX — (PN.) The thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amendments come before the Court, of the A. M. E. Church, told in audience of both races in the City Auditorium for the hearing of the amendment, created a sensation, standing in the heart of Dixie. Bishop Ransome said, "We have many great enemies to fight in the lynching, segregation and distranchishment." He was loudly applauded when no said, with a loud response. He must have gone around saying it does not matter so much if you cannot vote and have your ballot counted, you can save your life. He must have your dollars counted. "Vehencently the Bishop insisted, 'But if you are distranchised, you cannot vote.'" When the applause had subsided and the Bishop continued, "They say much about the enforcement of the constitution; they ask for five million dollars to be used to enforce it, but what about the other Amendments, a man of the Eighteenth Amendment, but in its order, for the Fifteenth certainly comes before the Eighteenth. Let the second Amendment abolish slavery, the Fourteenth conferring citizenship, the Fifteenth, conferring the right of franchise as a guarantee and a protection of citizenship and the Eighteenth Amendment in its regular order."

THE POST OFFICE will render a EBENEZER A. N. Sunday, January 16, 1927 UNDER THE AUSPICES OF President, John Pullman: Vice Rev. Waldon, Pastor Montgomery S LAWYER DEFENDS BAPTIST, PASTOR The injunction sought by the deposed members of the deacon board was that the pastor the Rev. Albert J. Greene in no way hampered the religious services Sunday which were conducted by the pastor, the only reference made to the pending injunction was that of George W. Evans, counsel for the pastor, who, declared that the report accusing the pastor of misuse of funds was absolutely false, found that the pastor he declared it was on the part of the deacons and not on the part of the pastor, because the interim no access to the church was required. Read Church Charter Mr. Evans also read a portion of the church charter in which he pointed out that all temporal matters are in the hands of the trustees and not handled at all by the deacons. The deacons said are merely the assistants of the pastor in carrying the duties and religious duties of the church. Trouble started when the pastor requested the church to remove eight members of the deacon board and replace them by electing others. The deacons also requested for an injunction through the officers of Hawkins and McMechan Attorneys, declaring the meeting at the vacant was illegally held. The deacons who dehrated that they have held office from three to 40 years are Lewis Miller, Herbert Moore, John W. Moore, Charles Proctor, Smith Campbell A. Jones and Bally Brooks. Of the eight, Deacon Brooks was the only one to put in an answer at the Sunday morning services. To Walt Court Action Mr. Evans in his defense of the pastor demonstrated with the congregation to refrain from orning all the case was finally settled in the court of the city. The injunction, he declared had not yet been granted and probably would not be handled. Deacons placed a bond with the court. The allegations of the deacons that the pastor was attempting to gain control of deposits in the Equitable Trust Company and the deacons bounded as absolutely false, explaining that neither the pastor nor the deacons had authority to control the funds of the church. The petitioners alleged that long needed reform and forced an issue provided for in the charter of the church, namely that the funds of the church should be bundled together and time all banking accounts were handled by the deacons and the only money in the hands of the trustees was a small checking account for an immediate needs of the church. A court hearing has not been set. Mr. Evans Says George Evans, attorney for the pastor said today: "In reference to the article ap- pared to me one of last week under the heading, 'Enjoined Pastor', I wish to say after a careful examination of the papers in the case and the order of the book, that we were granted in the case. Rev. Greene was not enjoined from doing anything, he was merely ordered to show cause why he should not be enjoined. On Dec. 23, 1925, at which time the ex-decals allge they were illegally ousted, was a regular church meeting attended by more than a quorum and the decrease was transacted in the regi- cular way. "Rev. Greene did not oust the deacons. The Church declared their offices vacant in the spring of 2015, to elect other members to the offices originally held by them. As for any intention on the part of the Pastor to be involved in such allegations as infamous lies, without foundation and made with the desire to embarrass him in his work, the most implausible members in the church. Under the rules and regulations of the Church, the Pastor has no control of the Church's money and resources exceeding one hundred dollars. We do not desire to try our case in the press. A proper answer to the charges is to publicly hold judgment in the case until the court has passed upon the matter. This is a fight to finish and if we fail, the court will pass through malice, we will seek redress in the proper court's. Bethel A.M.E. Church DRUID HILL AVE. AND LANVALE ST. Baltimore, Md.

This sermon was supplied by the Rev. Vernon Johns of Lynchburg Va. It was the glory of an impassioned Jew in the Roman Empire. Born in mean circumstances, he was sentenced to death, but he had reached the prime of life. Between the events of his birth and death he accumulated no property, no house, no bank. In the rating concerns at Jerusalem and Rome this was nothing. He was equally of no consequence in other ways. As a soldier he would have been ridiculous; he was anything but a diplomat; no book or pamphlet; he never ran for an office; the school-men of his time despised him; little and big politicism; the leaders of religion hated them more than they loved life. Even the death of Jesus left his name hanging in derision, and were (not many might, not many wise, not many learned, not many weak—weak things of world to confound the mighty; not many knew the name, were harried about at the peril of their lives. "And we beheld his glory," says their spokesman in the face of it. Certainly it is a new sort of glory. Jesus wrought a radical transformation in humanity's self-created, the beautiful. He reiterated our conception of greatness by revealing the eternal identity of the Great and Good. He gives us new ambitions for old. What are the Beatitudes and the Sermon on the Mount but a revelation of values? Jesus calls us to "revelation of human energy; calls out moral power that surprises the possessor; raises it to the enthusiasm of religious passion; calls out the light of all this that is in the light of all this that he promises us "a new world wherein dwellell righteousness." Without a doubt the paean Gullican has left the mistiest impress on human affairs; but we search his life in vain for the familiar glory—all what builds on dust." His greatness is not the glory of the captain at arms, the empire builder, the lord of broad essex. And this life of simplicity has ```markdown ``` UNION'S REVIVA BEGIN Sunday Morning, Dr. David E.

WEEKLY SERMON ALL WELCOME oses, Go unto Pharoah, and ord, Let my people go, that I. George D. Tyler, a member of SERMON no "sour grapes" foundation. All the kingdom of the world and the glory of them were within easy grasp of his genus; but for once, a great soul would not be cheated by the terms of their possession. What think you? He mould himself of no reputation, andook upon him the form of a man and begin to unite death, even the death of the cross. And yet, God has him a name that is above every name. Jesus calls out in us the most complete devotion. When passes along ourourseassees conjoined masses, pain branches in his way. When the radiance of his presence subsides we see that he is dressed in the poor clothes of the peasant and seated after two million years ever sees more palm branches thrown at his feet and more eyes as his glory misses by. We preach Christ crucified said Paul. But moderns are so proud of their social and financial success, far removed from the down and outs. He has the finest army on the planet. He is fast dripping with blood and blood-heaten community in the world and plining them beside a glittering cross. His women have heightened airs to be found anywhere in this world. One wonders why Jesus did not build the shop in Nazareth into a Shrine, heightening airs to be found anywhere in this world. Instead of gazing upon the life in the garb of his own choosing until we behold his chosen son, Jesus, the golden of the Father," we hasten, as the Roman soldiers did, to dress the Christ in a muck tube of royal purple and give him a crown. The splendor of Jesus must ever be the glory of his own selection and not some alien illusion of gold or brazen images of our baser worship. The life of Jesus is the Supreme Achievement of mankind's bestest, loveliest goals their enthusiastic, unsweeping pursuits: a shout of triumph in the deeps of defeat and a revealing, transcendent insight; a transcendent insight on the other side of every human weakness, sin, and deterrence—calling back to say: "God blessing you!" I have overcome the world; and because I have overcome she will overcome. The glory of God shines in Jesus Christ. I have overcome the beaten of the Father—full of grace and truth. **Union Baptist Church** Druid Hill Ave, near Dolphin St. REV. DAVID E.

With this explanation, a radio fan who listened to the radio poultry-course prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture, a program for catching chicken-stealing owls. "We found dead chickens almost every morning for a week. One night when coming home to my room, I noticed that this was the cause of the dead chicken problem. I made a small platform about 2 feet square and put a dead chicken in the center of the platform. I then placed six gopher traps around the chicken. I measured the distance owls measuring about 4 feet across the tips of their wings." How Much Should A Guest Tip How Much Should A Guest Tip WASHINGTON. — The nearly 7,500 bell boys and chore boys in the United States, many of whom will be interested in the plan recently worked out by the Hotel Men's Association to regulate the size of tips to be paid to bell boys, would be considered fair compensation to the hotel employees, who do extra service for the bell boys.

R. R. GRANTS EXTRA PAY TO ITS SANDWICH PEDDLERS A year or so ago the Pennsylvania Railroad Company followed lead of the Baltimore and Ohio and into active competition with the Union News Company on its trains. The practice turned dining car waiters into "news-butchers"—they didn't paddle newspapers, posters, pictures, but everything else in the news-butchers' repertoire of annoyance. Often waiters were required during meals to solicit the salaries by the largely "tip" compensated waiters' detriment. And for more than a year, employees at the employees' adjustment committee on the Pennsylvania has sought to have the waiters compensated with commissions on such sales. Several conferences were held with the Superintendent Restaurant Service and was apparently appealed to the Passenger Traffic Manager, who accepted partly the Committee's point of view, and, as a result, will receive a small commission for pedding sandwiches, coffee, ice cream, coca cola and other refreshments. Chairman J. A. Bail, responsible for this material consideration, is Chef-cook and will not personally handle the compensation of Management in the connection. Penna.

All Classes In Sympathy Rogers Says Social Equality Under "Covers"—Nashvi Richmond, Va. Libra All Classes In South Have Sympathy With Garvey Rogers Says Social Equality Galore Goes On In Dixie Under "Covers"—Nashville Center Of Culture—Richmond, Va. Library For Whites Only I found an almost unanimous sympathy for Carvergy in the South among all classes. The Norwegians are largely a reflection of that of the Nordic's indec., is a direct fruit of it, for in most other countries the so-called Negroes, as Brazil, the United States and British Ireland, think as nationalists first and Negroes last. But for the white American's race pride it is safe to say the American Negro would have an indec. for Carvergy, that comes nearest to the race pride of the American Negro, for when the Nordic says "White," Carvergy echoes "Black." As my friend Schuyler puts it, "The Norwegian is but the Kai phony with a bottle of ink emptied over it. Hence Garveyism is tolerated in the South, even welcomed by the institution to Africa, which is what the Nordic wants. He knows that the Negro is so thoroughly assimilated mentally that he is not going to be able to speak even when he go north, return. The Southerner's great fear is that the Negro will migrate at certain critical periods of the year and spoil his life by being neglected. The Chicago Defender" is person non grata, and like the "Crisis" has to be neglected by the White congregations like the Klan, the Virginia crowd and the Bourbons of the South are for Garveyism but hate the N. A. A. C. P. At three different gatherings of Dubols and the "Crisis" denounced. The reason is that the N. A. A. C. P. stands for the rights of the N. A. C. P. called that the principal opponents of Garvey in America have been Negroes. In Africa it is different; the objections are the different ways that he goes to the whites also like Garveyism because has furnished them much comedy. Another thing I found militating against, the N. A. A. C. P. was the one who was one or two of its officials. It was high and haughty. I have heard this in every part of America, some of them have been heated in their denunciation. So far as I can see the best step at present is for the northern Negro to invade the South with radical literature. And he will do it. But it is from the South that issues the virus of race hate, perpetually poisoning the nation. More than ever do I realize that it is the migration of whites that is responsible for most of the segregational lilis in the North. Misconception and Prostitution The following from the Louisville "Times," a white newspaper, Sept. 14, 1915: "To the Editor of the 'Times': I would like to ask through your columns why the Mayor, or Board of Safety, permits Negro women to solicitize white men who pass along to the Eighth streets, which is today a business thoroughfare. These wo- OPTIMIST BY J. A. ROGERS The Afro-American----South's Biggest and Best Weekly GOOD MORNING JUDGE It is good to be known by influential people, but when you are too well known by a person who knows you, he knows about you is bad, that's another question altogether. Henry Drew, 1312 Smart street, New York, he was built into the Northwestern Police Court Friday, on a charge of striking Clarence Parsely, 13 N. Cliff Street, where he was entering a saloon to purchase some cigs when Drew called him out, and after telling him that he just naturally hated him, kick him in the mouth with his fist. "Judge," said Drew. "that now struck him because he knew why I should kick him because you know nobody would walk up and strike a man for nothing. "Know me," well enough said the Know me, "to know that you are mean enough to do anything, I believe you did just what he said, and I am going to fine you $10 and Taylor Didn't Like It Out In The Open A fall, thin youth wandered into the Northwestern Police Station late Friday night and informed the desk sergeant that he was down. The sergeant said the desk sergeant, "but you sure came to the right place to keep from getting out for some time," he said. He sent the police officer James Taylor, who gave his age as 13, was soon behind the bars. "Your Honor," said that some young man when he was arranged to have his home and not find a job and would like 16 he put somewhere, I would rather go to jail." "Alright," said the Magistrate's "how would you help me in the House of Correction?" You can work out in the open. "That might all right justice, all excess of about working out in the open. I would rather go to ilc because I've been over there before and would be right at home." "I'll accommodate you this time and make the sentence 30 days in Clothes Make Woman And Also Trouble Mary McDonald, who up to a few days ago was a boarder in the home of Mrs. Catherine Jordan, 611 George street, was determined to men are permitted by the Police department to sit on the sidewalk scantily clad and smoke cigarettes any time during the day, and ply with men washing white men and boys, etc., etc. Note the chief objection seems to be business, a sort of thing that goes on in every town I have been in, with Norfolk, Va.; Newport, News New Bern, S. C., and New Orleans Concubinege goes on everywhere. In each town I made inquiries from the so-called common people, and from the town of Tuskegee where race relations are not so friendly, an old man took me around and showed me the hones of several colored men, the said, had children for white men. When one digs under the surface he also finds considerable reciprocity on the part of the Negro men. This is what is worrying the white Southernmost. He knows that the white woman shares his taste Jerome Dowd, in his recent book on the Negro, congratulates him for his work. He has stopped, attributing the lightening color of "the race" to union of blacks and mulattoes. "Cases of inter-marriage and also of illicit intercourse are becoming more rare." Dowd, of course, lives in the South. Needless to say, there is no protest on the part of Negroes against concubinage, since in most places it would be unsafe. It is the other type of union that worries them, and when it was rumored that Roland Hays was to marry a white woman, an anguish went up that surprised me. "Social equality" goes on 'galore under cover in the South, or should I say, cover it. Interracial Commission An Interracial Commission with hundreds of branches in several Southern States, operates from Atlanta. It will try to build up a better understanding between the so-called races—and conducts an up-to-date news bureau, from which it broadcasts to thousands of newspapers and constructive news about Negroes and whites also. Much dissatisfaction is heard in certain quarters, some socialized Negro mission will not touch the vital issues, and that its effect is to make the Negroes passive under carolism, this nevertheless, the work of the Commission, is on the whole, excellent, and very much better done than it was in two lengthy interviews with R. B. Elcazer and Will Alexander, leaders of the movement, and both of them have been on the question than many of the so-called Negroes. If the white men of the Commission are not the Negroes, they are the Negroes Douglasses and Denmark Veseys. Some of the southern universities, particularly the University of North Carolina, are doing splendid work along this line. The prospect of educating both colored and white up to the age of 18, the color is only incidental—that a human being to exist must have a color of some sort, hence that one is far from being a hopeless one. Hartem is, undoubtedly the center of Negro intellectuality but it is a long way from having the monopoly of teaching in Nashville. I met men of fine intellect, and quite as forward thinking. In almost every town I went to, I found a man from the best American and European universities. There are many Negroes of distinction whose names I had never heard, and probably would never have had, but I not gone out among them. I had a way or another from the large libraries, the theatres, concerts, operas, such as exist, the Negro Intellectual in the South has a cult time, maintaining standing with their elders, keep Negroes in some state of servitude, the Bourbons, like their slave-holding ancestors, seem afraid to leave, and therefore either bar them directly, go to a New Year party on that eventful night. Mary, however, found herself in unable to purchase the finery she desired, but she went to the party and from reports that drifted back to the Jordan home Mary was taken to a new day, however, Mrs. Jordan missed a new accordion pleated dress that she had herself bought for the holidays. Mary didn't see her up until that and the truth of it was, she was not seen for a whole week and on Friday when Mrs. Jordan's mother got a glimpse of the missing bourder adorned in his year's missing garment, she called a cat. At the hearing Mrs. Jordan declared that she did not want to prosecute and was pleased with the condition that she return the dress and find other lodging quarters. The young woman agreed to the hearing and his approval and Mary left the station house convinced that clothes might make the woman, but they might also make things unpleasant and happen to be other people's clothes, ```markdown ``` TOWSON, MD.

There are colored libraries here and there, but with the exception of one or two good books with unanticipated books, having the air of coming from the attics of white people. Among the Negro Hiteres I met was C. Leon McAllister, principal of Cincinnati, Tennessee, whose book "One Clear Call" is soon to appear from the Macmillan Press of New York. The work deals with the eternal triangle, and has all white Much that I started to say has perforce, been left unsaid, but, as I have said, I am a friend and friendiness of the colored people make the South a place one will want to visit and visit again in spite of the North.

Wood in an address to the Federation of Parent-Teacher clubs at School 113. Tuesday evening. Dr. Wood, who was the speaker for the evening, declared that the system was now restoring the results of all of the grade work that had been carried out by various factors during the last several years. He also outlined the policy of elevating men from the ranks, stating that all those mistakes that had occurred was proving to be a sound and beneficial one. Late Business Session At 3:50, ten minutes before the time of adjournment, Mrs. Laura Wheeler presides over the report of the secretary and begin the business session. This business session was characterized by an outburst of disbelief of the secretary and the business sessions of the Federation for the last year. An entry in the minutes as read, an objection to the report, and Joseph I. Mason, who objected to by the latter and ordered stricken out. Objections from the floor were also made by two other delegates to the report, and Mrs. Wheley after declaring out of order these and other objections, read a final report on the dissolution. Following objection of Mrs. Mason, the report on money from the art exhibit and other affairs were tabled, and the body finalized. Other numbers on the program included a solo by Miss Baskerville of School 114. A signed statement by Wheley included the following: "Owing to the lateness of the arrival of the speaker, the program extended over most of the evening, leaving but a few minutes for the speaker to report of the previous meeting was read by the secretary and minutes of the last business meeting were read and approved subject to the necessary corrections. Mrs. S. B. M. objected that the minutes because, as she stated, they contained a reference to her—because they used her name in a motion which she did not make. The Chair ruled that upon request of the speaker, the minutes should not be included, whereupon the minutes were adopted as read." H.Wei 801-3-5 PENNSYL 4-PIECE WALNUT FIN ROOM SUIT.

Clark COLORED PERSONNEL IS STRIKING NEED Melvale, School For Girls By Contrast Reported On Favorably Report on Cheltenham by the Grand Jury stated that the buildings at the institution were badly in need of repair and while there was plenty of room, they were dilapidated and in need of paint. The broom factory which is the only form of manual training at the institution is said to be beyond repair and the cow barn would be a better place. In an annuated report, Robert H. Clark, Jr., colored member of the Grand Jury stated that there were no educational facilities whatever at the institution and that the boys where the growth to work were not given one day of schooling throughout the year. The class rooms are wholly deserted. He said, is due to the improper personnel and recommends that a coloured administration be appointed and a proper appropriation be given to improve the buildings, equipment and the proper functioning of the institu- Members of the Grand Juray also visited Melville School for Girls and the University of Michigan, and that the superintendent, Mrs. T. S. Pennington, white, is competent and well fitted for her work. The building was found in the library and the teachers were happy. No mention, however, was made of the educational training. The Grand Juray as a whole reported that they were pleased with their visit to Melville. Mr. Clark's report reads: There is an institution beautifully situated among the hills of Prince George's county, Maryland, known as the House of Information. This institution is to reform a certain type of color youth in such a manner as to make them desirable citizens. This institution, after no many years of continuous operation, so far behind in curriculum and other essentials absolutely necessary in order that it might be one of real service to the community. The colored class rooms where the inmates are supposed to receive proper instruction are totally deserted. I was a boy, or to be more explicit not one of the larger boys, received one day's schooling during the entire year. Such existing conditions are deplorable. They must be trained in the manual arts, such are not in existence. There is a shop over in the barn known as the broom factory. That is unsantency and lacking so far as being properly equipped. The grounds are beautiful. The buildings are good but aside from this, it is absolutely nothing to impress anyone. We are in the future welfare of these boys as far as preparing them to be to useful members of society and to take a use-place in the community is concerned. It cannot be denied that this institution is suffering from the absence of a proper personnel and the sooner it is better prepared, as they exist at present, the better it will be not only for those who are confined to the school but for the public. It seems reasonable and just that the most helpful and satisfactory arrangement would be the appointment of a colorful personal together with a teacher, a supervisor and a equipment of shops so that modern methods in the manual arts could be made possible. But what is it anything but a credit to the state and those directly responsible for its proper maintenance. ISLANDERS WANT TO BE CITIZENS Declaring that they do not know whether they are "citizens of the United States, wards of the nation, landlords living in New York sent a petition to Congress today attacking the navy government of the Isle of Man, landlords in economic distress" and asking for a permanent government "more in keeping with American democratic ideals" a petition will be used in arguments before the Senate Committee on Insular Affairs which will hold a hearing on the Virgin Islands in Washington today.

Dear Bill: I read that letter you wrote last week in answer to my article of the day about the club of not being sports and not snatching a game from the Kappa Team, but I didn't mind the things about answering it were it not for the fact that today's newspapers are tomorrow's history and in future we will see those things that you said about me and learn what a rotter their grand and was, so I thought I had better clear my name.

It would be harder for a single player to be indicted than the club as a whole, so I warned you in a friendly way, but it wasn't malice that made me a newspaper man and it wasn't cowardly as you inferred because I signed my name and did not try to hide behind the editor's desk. Some writers do that, you in power. Bill, to what you said about knowing nothing about basketball rules, I would like to say that I have played that game and other games but not enough to win. I don't know what things like that; and I confess that I never was much for learning a lot of technical rules that they put in books about any game. But I did learn one rule, and that was to square with your fellow men and that's the most important rule of any game. Don't you agree, Bill? And I'm not familiar with the rules of the game, but I know many legal books, but I know enough about the laws of the land to know when a judge or magistrate gives a raw deal. I'll write him up and hand it out, and I know that Kappa game, because I am a newspaper man and being such, I feel that I am a sort of unofficial ambassador and the mouthpiece of the folks who read our sheet, and look to us to raise a howl of disgust. Perhaps I'm wrong, Bill. Well Bill, if I was mistaken about that game and you really won, and I knew you and the rest of the team that I might have wronged and to Howard Wright and his brother, like and tell them for me that I'm mighty good at that game now and when you play I root for you, like I used to do, and we'll all be the best of friends unless you pull some ugly stuff, then you can write back and call me coward or anything else that you think I am and I won't get more because I'm a good sport. res Many Year Resolutions ark Is Seen In New Year Reso- titimoreans.
