Boinay, white, East Lexington automobile dealer, completed five hours of testimony Friday afternoon in Middle-sex Superior Civil Court. The ex-mail, Miss Daisy J. Turner, 35, of Lexington, is plaintiff in three actions against Boinay, which are being tried jointly. In one action Miss Turner seeks damages of $25,000 alleging that she and Boinay mutually agreed to wed and that he has refused to curry out his engagement. In the other two suits, seeking additional damages of $11,500, Miss Turner alleges that Boinay maliciously and falsely accused her of farcey articles from his home to be searched for these alleged stolen articles. He did this, she charges, to hurt her, a slang-colored woman in a neighborhood of Boinay, might be pointed at her, and to frighten her out of the maintenance of lawful claims she had against him. A wave of laughter swept over the crowd court-room when, Bohny, who is 50 years old, in response to question by Miss Turner's counsel, asked the lock of his hair, called it pretty and tenderly placed it in a gold-locket. "There is nothing funny about it," declared Bohny from the witness stand, "but to no one, or he head would come off." "Did you send Daisy that poem?" questioned her counsel, showing Bohny a piece of paper. "No I didn't answer Bohny. Batch of Letters" counsel then produced a batch of letters and questioned Bohny as to whether he had written them. Bohny resisted the numerous envelopes addressed to "Miss Daisy," Turrer was not his. Bohny admitted writing one letter, which he and set forth "we leave on the 8 a.m. train, Friday, September 15th. Hastily." "When you wrote that letter, were up to see Daisy?" asked counsel. "Then we pressed to Miss Turner at Griffon, FYI." WILBERFORCE U. TESTIMONY WITHHELD Extra-By Telegram. State Dept.

Howard Uni. and Freedmen's Hospital Ask Congress for $52,000 More Howard HOWARD U. ASKS CONGRESS FOR $52,000 MORE Additional Appropriation Is For Addition To Freed- men's Power Plant MEDICAL BUILDING ARCHITECT TELLS PLAN Pipes 700 Feet Long To Conduct Light, Heat And Power WASHINGTON, D. C. (Spcial) Howard University has asked Con- gress for $52,000 more. This item which is contained in the second deficiency bill is in the name of Freedmen Hospital, and will be used to make an addition to the Freedmen's Hospital heating plant so that it will be able to provide power, heat and light to the home and residential building. The university found it was necessary to ask for the additional sum when it became known that architect, Albert Cassell, completed the present power house as the source of supply. In an investigation however, it was shown that the capacity of Freedmen's hospital plant would have to be increased in order to provide such auxiliary units as are necessary to maintain proper power at the plant. In the building light and power to all the university buildings comes from the Freedmen's Hospital power house. The university pays $150,000 for Freedmen's hospital for this service. Increase in the capacity of the hospital power plant will provide accommodation for the new $150,000 girls' dormitory. Companies will be started sometime this year. Mr. Cassell told the AFRO today, "The new medical building when complete will be fixed and movable scientific equipment. It will also be heated and lighted as are all Howard Buildings, by the central power plant at the hospital. We will also provide for the joint use of both the Hospital and the University. Heat, light and power are to be convected underground for a distance of two miles from the power plant to the new building. "The present power plant is of amply sufficient capacity to supply the medical school building and the requirements of the new medical school building. Quite naturally we are looking ahead to the further expansion of the hospital for which reason such auxiliary units as are necessary to maintain the proper reserve power at the hospital are under the direction of the Bureau of The Budget within the present year."

Made Dates "Didn't you make me with Daisy from phonon stations for her to come in from Brookline and lunch or sup with you?" asked counsel. Boinay denied that he made any telephone appointments to meet Miss "Did you ever live with her as man and wife?" counsel queried. "No, I didn't," was the equally sharp reply. "Did you tell Rose (Rose Turner, a sister of Daisy Turner) a short time after your own death, Rose asked you that you were going to marry Daisy as soon as you could get your business affairs安排的会议, but she had any talk with her about it, or anyone else," replied Boinay. **Search Girls Home** Belmira admitted, in response to questions, that he accompanied officers on searches of Miss Turner's homes in Lexington and Grafton, on search-warrants, on search-warrants for articles which he alleged had been stolen from him. Counsel read the search warrants and the officers, returns on them in records. **No Articles Found** According to the officers' returns, none of the articles alleged to have been stolen, compulsively denied that he ever given Miss Turner presents or that he had received any money from her. Miss Rosa Turner, Daisy's sister, was called to the stand as the next witness. She testified that just prior to her father's death, in 1923, she cared a message to the father, according to the witness, the message was to the effect that the father wanted Bolny to stay away from Daisy or marry her. Miss Daisy, who said that she denied the message to Bolny and that he replied that just as soon as he got his affairs straightened out he intended to marry Daisy. Came Home Daisy. "I had heard conversation with him," continued the witness, "at my home in 1923. He came there evenings, but I told him didn't want him, he did." He did not in him as long as he intended to marry Daisy. Referring to the time that Bolny accompanied officers to Daisy's room, counsel asked: "To your knowledge had Mr. Bolny been in Daisy's room before that?" "Yes, sir, he had," replied the witness. "Do you remember the circumstances." "When he used to call to see her he used to go up to her room." Referring again to the time that Beinay accompanied the officers to Daisy's home on the searching party, the witness said that on that occasion another sister of Daisy said to Beinay, "Mr. Beinay, I am surprised. I thought you were going to marry Daisy." Bolmay replied, according to the witness: "Nothing doing now." "Engagement to Whits Denied" Taken under cross-examination by counsel for Holmy, Miss Rose Turner, and her husband, who had numerous occasions in the past ten years, had declared she had been engaged to white men. Rose Turner denied that she knew of pictures in either Lexington or other official referred to by counsel as "a white man", to whom Daisy claimed she was engaged—even while the suit on trial was pending. Sister Married White It was brought out during the cross-examination that one of Daisy's sisters is married to a white man. VENXA, Md.-Class meeting at 9 a.m., mled by Noah Jackson.

MORE MALONE MORE MALONE Continued from page 1 been filed or such a course contemplated. White Man "the boss" Today's proceedings in view of the fact that the receiver already had been appointed, had the case come to trial would have determined whether or not the receivership was to be made permanent. The temporary receiver who is a gentleman of the crimson neck variety too kehrge last Thursday, superceding Mrs. Malone in authority, signing all checks and controlling the huge daily income. He stopped payment on all outstanding checks, called all the department heads together and in a speech informed them that he was "The Boss now" and save a definite indication of what might be expected under a white receivership. All of this has occurred because of Malone's petition and the hasty action of the court and not as a result of business loss or discrepancy in zero. It still remains perhaps the strongest Negro business in America. Session Short The session today was short. Surprisingly, few of St. Louis's attorneys were absent. Both principals had evidence. Both principals had evidence would be granted. Even the leading attorneys were absent. Indiana's Manone's lawyer, was recently appointed by President Coolidge, Chairman of a governmental agricultural commission. His absence was one reason for postponing the case. He is a noted and high-class lawyer. "Malone's Counsel Famous Foristor, Mr. Malone's counsel for this way," he is a damage suit attorney, with an uncanny reputation for winning his cases, the winning, rather than losing, the winning thing with him, according to rumors. He has won several big damage suits recently for colored people, all of them against big companies, and has invariably won sums as high as fifteen and twenty thousand, taking as a rule fifty per cent of the cases. The bosses of St. Louis County, the "Under Cover Boss" they call him, makes judges and public office, though not holding office himself. It is because of his might that many of the colored residents product that Mr. Malone will win, reinforce the of intrinsic merit of the case. Sop To Public Opinion These perhaps hypersensitive proclaim the justice the judge, who is a Jew, well-ill-trained, the justice who two years ago decreed that it was equitable for a park commissioner to set aside one day for Negroes to play on a public golf political faction.—As is the receiver, "It's all cut and dried," say these folk. "A permanent receiver will be picked out a colored man, a lawyer identified with that group, to be a co-receiver as a sop to colored opinion, just because the judge obstructed lawyer as associate. The receivership will drag on for three or four years, the business will dwindle. The court will sell, the judge will sell, it, and that will spell the end of Poro as a racial institution." Malone Doesn't Realize Danger "Mr. Malone does not realize the danger to the welfare of the group in the move that he is making," they say. Others are not so confident that Mrs. Malone will lose. "She built up the business and will be able to prove it," they declare. "Malone came here penniless and has not worked since they moved into the new building," they assert. In the meantime, while people seem to be almost as interested as colored folk. Many are sympathetic, while others are surprised to find a million dollar institution of this kind in their midst; still others are said to think Pero too large a proposition for colored folk to handle and they view with glee the prospect of its falling into the hands of whites. Personal Property Taken The last action of the judge today was to order $84,000 (Eighty-Four Thousand Dollars) in bonds which appeared on the books as personal property to be turned over to the receiver. "The contention here," he ruled, "is that this a co-partnership business. Therefore there are no personal holdings and all must be turned over to the receiver, who will be required to furnish additional bond of one hundred thousand dollars." Mrs. Harriet E.

PUT HOPE IN MONEY DARROW TELLS TUSKEGE Noted Criminal Lawyer Says Worst Days Are Now Ours With PURE RACE BLOOD IS CALLED BUNK Every White Man Ought To Be Ashamed Of U. S. Rac Relations TUSKEGEE INST, ALA, (N.P.)—Get education and pay for these mean power, say the advice which Chargee Darrow of Chicago, introduced by Vice Principal J. T. Taylor as a lover of humanity—a aerization which he repudiated at the outset—gave to students of Tuskegee Institute in a address here Thursday afternoon. "In these place your hope for vanance. As I see it they your only hope. Remember the nothing comes into this world of your own. Your worse days, I believe, are but There are still hard days and Speaking for longer than an hour the chained dislocated his skepticism, his disatisfaction the social order, his disregard tradition, his lack of faith in human race and human agency deliberately slouched characteristically the pulgat. At times his voice is low and soothing; again it was dignant, fierce, blazing. He reviewed the history of an whites, a record which he said he white man ought to be ashamed He made an estimate of prince conditions, analyzed their cause ventured to prophesy their ex He pointed his customary contemptuous thrust at the "mobile people," arranging the whites as "the people and people and declaring that seldom knew no such thing as race." Color he said, "has nothing to do with race prejudice. Rath: it is previous condition. The people it is. That the Negro is nearer to his slavery than the white to his." Ruthlessly, Mr. Darrow attacked the superiority complex of the white people, more intrinsic intelligence than any other and that the talk about "pure blood" is the verest of bunk. "And on this particular point, every biologist, every anthropologist knows that I am telling you what is true. They are all for you. Likewise, all the best literary me are on your side. Every concession of Nosew in America, according to Mr. Darrow, cannot hope for a full measure of the constitutional rights that are theirs, but it is their duty to work for these rights for their children. AFRICANS OPEN GOLD COAST UNIVERSITY NEW YORK.—The National Association for the Advancement of Color ed People, fears from England that a new university has been opened a Accra for natives on the Gold Coast of Africa. Native dialects are to be systematically reduced to writing and all text books are to be both in English and the native tongue. A report sent to the N. A. A. C. P. from the Plymouth Western Morning New states: "Careful attention is being paid to the history, music, art and folk-lore of the whole colony. The Government's scheme is not to Europeanize the native and so spoil him, but to help him to advance in his own culture, to express himself in his own way, and to enable him ultimately to conduct his own affairs on lines most calculated to render him ill to assume responsibility." A brilliant native scholar, Professor J. E. K. Aggrey formerly at Shaw University, N. C., is vice principal of the university. Dr. Aggrey is chief of the Fanti'tribe. On the teaching staff are some 24 other native professors. MARYLAND CAMBRIDGE, MD. CAMBRIDGE, MD. The funeral of Benjamin Jenifer was largely attended. The Masons had charge of the body. The Rev. M.

SOCIAL WHIRL NANCY TO NAILA To the list of January birthdays chronicled in my last letter, I am delighted to add one other—that of the very young man who on Saturday last made a trinity of the Gobert MacBeth family. The news of his arrival fairly flubbergasted everybody; for while it was an open secret that a youngster was expected in that direction, no one dreamed that the advent would occur so soon as it did. Alice was truly the ideal expectant-mother. Her carriage was dignified, her countenance radiant, her spirit exuberant, and all to the very last; thus it was that we were so completely thrown off track. Gobert, of course, is displaying the paternal pride characteristic of a man who for the first time receives the announcement, "It's a boy!" Just the same, though, he was duly and properly humbled when brought face to face with the miracle of life, for in awed tones he remarked to his sister, Hazel, "And he even cries out loud." Dear Naila: It is a very serious Baltimore that is reflected in the activities of the week just gone. First there was the meeting of the DuBois Circle at Mrs. Rhetta's Tuesday afternoon. The club is concentrating you know, upon Negro art and literature and for this occasion Mrs. Sarah. Fernandis had been invited to give readings from her recently published collection of poems. It was the first time that a local group of appreciable size had been acquainted with Mrs. Fernandis writings, and to the members of the circle, it afforded a striking study in contrasts between the conservative and the inimitable verse making. (Langston Hughes, our most outstanding exponent of the newer poetry, was the great poet of the 19th century meetings, you will remember) Mrs. Fernandis looks at the world thru rose-colored glasses, and what she sees she records in the images of the world altogether the point of view nor the procedure of the majority of the. Herriot of the present day, but perhaps it's just as consumers of literature that there o'er a few who dare cling to the sanity and the sweetness of the early Homeric ideas. It balances our point so to speak. It is interesting to note how increasingly large is the number of women among us who are becoming W. W. C. A. dinner of last Thursday evening is a case in point. There were exactly eight-two present, and it is significant, for it seems a chance of attitude on our part, and promises results that seemed utter out of reach of our audience. Any half-hearted set-together either—no mere desire to be numbered among those present. The reports reflected the generalization of reach of the workers. Mrs. Lillian Brown and Miss Mattie White, as recording and corresponding secretary, illuminating accounts of the efforts of the project. Mrs. Carr, on Lewis reported on finance, Mrs. Johnston on finance, Mrs. Gerald Chussell on hospitality, Mrs. Lewis on room registry, Miss Frances Murphy on publicity, Mrs. Juchannan on girls work, and Mrs. Gwinn on wives. There was too an excel- lent report on membership, but the department now uses new. Miss Welling made her report as branch secretary, and after a few months, she became the major feature of the evening—a talk by Dr. Georgiana Simpson of the Dundur High School at the University. The program designated it as "an address, but the wholly informal and intimate manner in which Dr. Simpson was involved. In activities here and abroad, the sympathetic way in which she outlined our responsibilities as community leaders to a missouri. It was simple, direct, almost personal, and I'd rather call it "a talk. The final business was that we had been no regular elected official staff for the past year. Folks had just been asked to serve until a real organization was willingly done so. It was lokal, therefore that the nominating body should present the names of those same people for the election, were firing, and it was lokal that they should be elected. Miss Whiting just seemed bubbling over and everything moved so smoothly as I was for our own. After adjournment, I stood around to exchange the usual greetings. In addition, I went to Mrs. Coasey. Several times during the evening my eyes had shifted in her dress, and it dawned on me. She wore such a becoming dress of grey crepe de chine. You know a partly woman who is just like a homely woman who is fascinating. They are combinations that you don't expect and when that do occur they become of our nature. The new Elks' Hall at Madison and McMeen streets has been completed and was open for inspection. The imposing brown brick residence at the southwest corner there. It has been remodeled so that the original building forms the front of the building and in addition the rear. In the basement of the front is a cloak-room where wraps may be checked when the place is occupied by people. The first floor has an entrance hall with a lounging room to the left and reception room to the right. The reception area is outfitted in furnishings of leather, while the reception rooms are more pretentiously equipped. A billiard room, a gymnasium and the highest foot administrator are on the second floor. The third floor is made up of the secretary's office and a reception room for the exclusive use of the board of directors and the other for any small gathering of members of the order. An annexed section is not so constructed as to conform to the original, floor for floor.

LUDEN'S MENTHOL COUGH 5c DROPS BEWARE THE COUGH OR COLD THAT HANGS ON Persistent coughs and cold leads to serious trouble. You can stop them now with Cremoulisation, an emulsified creosote that is pleasant to take. Cremoulisation is a new medical discovery with two-fold action; it soothes and heals the inflamed membranes and inhibits germ growth. Of all known drugs, creosote is recognized by high medical authorities as one of the greatest healing agencies for persistent coughs and colds and other forms of throat troubles. Cremoulisation contains, in addition to creosote, other healing elements which soothe and heal the infected membranes and stop the irritation and inflammation, while the creosote goes on to the stomach, is absorbed into the blood, attacks the seat of the trouble and checks the growth of the germs. Cremulsion is guaranteed satisfactory in the treatment of persistent coughs and colds, bronchial asthma, bronchitis and other forms of respiratory diseases, and is excellent for building up the system after colds or flu. Money refunded if any cough or cold is not relieved after taking according to directions. Ask your druggist. (adv.)

The dancing of these boys, especially, has created a great following and won the praise, of both white and colored critics. Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Young --- Along The White Way MAYBELLE ROBINSON CHEW The picture "The Spider's Web" combined with the really splendid show, "Watch Em Charley," combine to make a satisfying evening's pleasure at the Royal, another of the Micheaux colored players pictures, and it is indeed modern and thrilling. Austin man who lives in New York can live with her niece in New York becomes entangled in playing "the numbers." Harlem's newest gambling game is called "The Number." Her aunt her wayward crippled daughter she dreams of a lucky number. This game is even more thrilling. The event is marred however by having a number of people strike the same number. Her banker reuses to pay off her debts when she leaves the office. Martinez is found dead she is arrested for murder. The solving of the murder mystery by a secret man makes a dramatic story. Miss Evelyn Preer, now playing one of the principals in *Lula* and *Smith* who danced at the Royal a few weeks ago was the adventures widow from Oklahoma. Miss Preer's husband was Martinez, the murderer of her husband, and parties at the widow's house. I think I recognized two Baltimoreians, but Since I not sure won't mention by all-colored cast and producers, a matter of pride to have been on the first Race picture ever filmed by all-colored cast and producers, a sloppy clean comedy. With a chorus that loves to dance, a leading lady that is like some brown and straight man, a fine quartet and three good comedians the show is "real fortune." The Olympic artist is a real artist. The Olympic acrobats are already on their way to stardom. The tenor singer in the quartette has a real voice, and the entire harmony of the band they play a mouth organ professionally Slim and Bodidly just won't quit and the leading lady needs no beauty her beauty for just "Beating silve." "Spider's Web" Oscar Michaeux's production "The Spider's Web" supposedly stars Evelyn Preer, her husband, her wife wouldn't just right, but truthfully speaking the real star is not introduced until the final reel, and she is Grace Smyth. In these registers more real action in these two reel than the entire cast does in the entire thing. As "Madam Boley", Grace won her self a permanent and any action—trim, tail and with the grace that beftached the time and place she flashes before her guest call to the black ball, including the "Black Bottom", "Charleson" and the "Mess Around". Here Grace displays the same old vigor that has won her hundred awards and numerous awards. To us Grace Smyth was the pictures one bright spot. Henrietta Lovelace, as the Mary Austin, was the next to draw special attention to her. Her protraval of the woman that goes to jail, accused of a murder that she did not commit, is well shown, her face registering promptly. Lorenzo McLane, in real life the husband of Miss Lovelace and a comedian of note, is assigned a straight role, and here the boy is a young girl. A-1 straight character. Eddie Thompson also contributes nicely. Patrons of the Dunbar will have a chance to see Mr. Josiah Diggs, its owner as a movie picture "The Picture Web" is shown here. The picture is both a sob and laugh producer. The plot hinges around the restoration of Harlem and the number crave. **Gray** On Monday they will screen the entertaining "ALOMA OF THE SOUTH SEAS" with Gilda Gray, celebrated dancer, assistant Percy Crawford, and Baxter Under the descriptive title "Aloma of the South Seas" Paramount is presenting in an adaptation of the novel by the same name, Gilda Gray who has won international fame as the leading exponent of dances of that portion of our literature. Like many stories set in this locale, it centers in a romance between a native girl and a foreigner, who deserves and woman-hater over another woman and is seeking forgetfulness. In general the plot focuses on familiar characters that quicken the interest. REGENT The Regent is presenting five individual vaudeville acts. All are good. The sister act is well known and the best. One could almost imagine oneself listening to a Kelth program when this act comes on. The act is a musical which can harmonize, and one lone man holds his own by playing a handsome band to a farewell dance, assisted him in a couple of numbers. Their costumes were the last word in style and coloring. Milton Sills puts up a marvelous set of costumes here "Paradise" thus further enduring himself to the small boys who furnish much of the theatre. As the hero, Sills is reformed by love, and being really tested by his father fights the racial overseer for possession of the father has given him for a wedding present. LOGAL FOLKS IN MICHEAUX FILM Josiah Diggs, Cinchinattus Major and Winner of Beauty Contest In Cast Two of Baltimore's prominent business and theatrical men have been cast in Micheau film the "Spider's Web," playing the Royal theater, this week, after a tale by the late William, winner of the Royal Theater's recent beauty contest. Several scenes had to be reaken while Mr. Michaud was to be reaken by the engaged Messrs. Diggs and Major to appear, the latter taking the part of the lawyer who is seeking to defend Mary Austin, wrongly accused of murder. Mr. Diggs elected a bit of comedy into the picture, especially when the jazz steps of Grace Smyth steps his body to swaying in time to Palestine D. Williams is remembered as the rival of Viola West, who on last week became the host of Moxley of the Golden brown beauty as Miss Baltimore. She is thought by many to have been the rightful possessor of the title. Her personality so impressed her that she sat near the stage, that he immediately made preparations to have her go to New York for a screen test. Results proved satisfactory and the daughter of Mary Justin (Henrietta Loveless) in the "Spider's Web" along with Miss Evelyn Preer and others. Only a few shots were made there. The gentlemen proved that; there is some possible screen talent in Baltimore. Several of the experienced actors seemed to be unable to control the camera, yet this was mastered with ease by both Mr. Diggs and Mr. Major. Flays "Lulu Belle" And Belasco Flays "Lulu Belle" And Belasco Harry Dubols, writing in Stag, a new monthly now appearing on news stands, is both harsh and severe in his writings, but his success and his sues "Lulu Bell" calling him "a false prophet." Dubols thinks "Lulu Bell" is an incredibly low, bestial exploitation he continues. "the sinister thing about Mr. Belasco is not the type of woman or play on which he lavishes his directional affective touch, but he deifies the public into believing there is something sanctified, inspired, or artistic in his plays. The whole thing is humbug and quackery, unseamless publicity, a genius, never fear, a great genius, a genius unequalled by any of his superiors in America—he has a genius for being always cheap, always obvious always vulgar, and always profitable.

The north cast Baltimore "Old Timers" have been trying for a long time to settle the argument since some of the songs by Ernest at the old Holiday Street theater, while others it was sung by Berk Williams. We are sorry that we have not the information asked on record, and that we are not on the outside will be kind sought to help us. Singers Of "Ell Ell" Baltimoreans have had their chance to hear actors render the Russian anthem, "Eli El" in its respective tongue. The Ethel Waters, Georgette Harvey and Laurence Lomax. Lomax caused quite a sensation while playing here with the Wineglass Revue, and with an appropriate backdrop to saw the real meaning of the song, rating second in successfully putting it over. The real honors go to Ethel Waters, who even the Jewish people claim has no peer in placing the song in the context of information reaches us that Miss Waters was tutored in rendering this song by a Jewish rabbi in New York, and with careful study she has mastered it to such a degree that she is said to be the most proficient of the Russians clearly expressed in her actions without the aid of artificial background or stage effects.

Georgette Harvey, of the "Runn- Wild Five" playing here this week, by special request is singing the number, having scored quite success the first time she sang it here.

A show without its chorus of lively stepping girls soon flops. The work of the chorus oftimes covers the defects in the work of the principal, so why not credit. The house orchestra is always being held responsible for the break made by so and so, but when the orchestra picks up the score at Monday's matinee and sends the show over, do they congratulate the director and his ag- Another important factor in the theater is the stage crew. All over the country the race theaters are filled with inadequate stage crew occupations exception. However considering this to be a fact, Walney Beckett is to be congratulated on the way he handles shows of all sizes with only one assistant. At the Royal, where a larger crew is used three men stand out prominently in the process of shows. They are James (Garvey) Kennard, Chas Mackall and Vincent Smith.

FRIDAY—SATURDAY THE RUNAWAY EXPRESS A SMASHING DRAMA OF THE RAILS! MUSIC OTLIGHT -PLAYS Actresses On Nudity It is not often we find the courage to approach an actress on the question of Nudity on the stage, and when we have the nerve the actress is not always in a mode to discuss it or any phrase of stagedem. However, after several weeks of ploughing with the acting back to an interview with such actors and actresses as Miss Adeladele Hall, Florence McClain, Dorothy Ray, Lewis Cole and numerous others, we can say, not one idolized nudity, all said what we can we do when the butlades in public life are trying so hard to out-strip us. The scarcity of clothing worn by ladies upon the street and in public places has produced educators were lost as how to meet the rapid rising crisis. It was root poor poorer or die. Zionfield Says Florenz Ziegfield resumes all blame for the wave of nudity, but contends that producers have gone too far, not to exempt to outdo one another with nudity and incessant dialogue. While Mr. Ziegfield glorified the American white girl, Irvin C. Miller went on to say, "I was not with Mrs. Ziegfield says, 'I admit I introduced nudity to the stage, but I presented it in artistic fashion. I never had girls dancing about the stage in bare legs. My mother was a fashion designer. And I never once turned a spotlight on a nude figure." With nudity came packed houses critics lauded and praised. Censors screamed and joy killers condemned the box-office was worked over time. Cutting Off Skirts Milady, in trying to compete with the stage, cut away more of her skirts and wore flesh colored house. Like a drowning man grasping at a stair, the producers introduced a drowning man, a klee-gled man, nude pose and defied milady to go them one better. Miss Ray and Mr. Cole when questioned say they do not approve of this present day nudity as it only happens in movies. Miss McClain, who had been recently dismissed by a New York Magistrate for appearing too nude in a cabaret, says, "I wore the same costume that I wore in the Baltimore theater. My husband would not allow me to appear in any nude scene that would border on the edge of indecency." Mr. Ziegfield, "I shall fight against nudity and cleaner shows. I will not be unable to cope successfully with the situation, the managers themselves should serve as a play jury. T. O. B. A. Washington Mid-city—Annie Mae Reynolds. Baltimore—Jane Churchill.

Call Vernon 6016 THE AFRO-AMERICAN—Baltimore, Md.—South's Biggest and Best Weekly BERT HOWEL COLEY GRANT MARION GRAVES MARTHA COPELAND 12 Picked Beauty Girls NAMES COUNT NAMES COUNT BY "GANG" JINES Conditions theatrically speaking, have brought the writer back to these columns again; and at this time of the season, the discussion seemingly is for better amusement — there is no such creature alive. The only way to accomplish this exempt progress along these lines, the writer will tell you, all branches of show business is shot-to-pieces — the radios have cut-in on everything; some managers have killed their own business by juggling pieces of admission to suit the pocket book of some producers who will tell you that "names" that have seen a standard "trade mark" for years don't count—but the writer finds Broadway producers are looking for names—also larger vaudeville circuits—friendship has gone when box office value is declared. A show known is a ship without a "sail." Securing as "cheap as possible" is just a cheap policy—and cheapens a house or production, and surrounds them with a lot of cheap actors, who in most cases have no relevance to the film they blind ones sometimes—is another tune to the "grave yard" march and is absolutely all "wet." Many so-called features or headliners don't mean a thing to a show or vaudeville bill, or to the box office, but they are booked and placed with shows because of friendships, politics, religion, or what not. There is plenty of real talent around in all lines, but do they fall for the line of "con" that is handed them by producers and bookers? The actor has been the "goat so long, until they have him take over," writes. But the writer realize there are still some "dumb" turns. Another wrong policy some circuits adhere to is to repeat acts and shows two or three times a season. No wonder audiences get restless—where is the variety? All you can hear is, bring us some assistance to the artists will, but when will the manager give us some better "salaries?" And of all things build some "pneumonlap-proof" theatres to play-in; in order the actor doesn't die after the termination of his engagement. Some circuits care only for money—and the actor realizes it and knows they only are paid so much, and list their offerings. Keeping with the circuit they play, "Can't this as broad as it is long?" The actor has no protection whatsoever, only by force of law, some of whom will be worth the paper they are printed on. When the managers, producer, actor, and booker, cooperate more firmly as a matter of business, and not friendship nor money, like it is today, the only person or persons reaping what in there left, is the "greedy" producer and the officials—and the actor is the means where will they all be? So why keen picking on the hand that is feeding? We all need each other. California Bands Compete SAN FRANCISCO.-The Jazz bands of northern California will meet February 7th at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco and West Indian Protective Association. Wade Whaley's Black and Tan Jazz Hounds, present champions, will compete with Eddie Liggins' Band of the Mountain and Clem Raymond's Sappopotamus. REGENT The Regent offers four acts of vaudeville as a change of diversion, for the week. Top honors go to the "Runnin' Wild Five", a Kelb-Albee trick, composed of Fred Jennings, Anita Reed, Georgette Harvey, Musa Williams and Gladys Thompson. Singing, dancing and instrumental solos and duos round out the act's routine. The bajan and akaphones duos, Joan Reed and Reed, drew bulk of the applause. The audience failed to tire of this duo's work. Musa Williams and Georgette Harvey, both received appreciative hands for their soloing. Gladys Thompson shows her own version of the "Black Bottom". The act was well costumed and bore all the appearance of the bigtime attractions. Noah Collins and Mayme Miller, sister team, Anita Bush and teacher Alexander ran a dead heat for second honors. Collinis is a fast and furious terpischorean artist, with a way of her own to win her audience. Miss Miller is coming. Anita Bush has lost none of her old-time selling power and seemingly has obtained the secret of perpetual youth. Her "hula" number was well rendered. Alexander's song was received lightly, and redeemed by his flashy "hooting." Bailey and Green in next to closing gave us plenty of comedy mixed with a good harmonizing, which has a good voice, while the female is well-equipped to dispose of mummy songs. Both worked under cork. As a whole, the bill is pleasing and to be enjoyed after so many tabs and revues. Exhibit Of Prim. African Sculpture The Theatre Arts, Inc. announces an exhibition of Primitive African Sculpture to be held in New York City from February 7th to March 5th, according to information reaching the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.

Browning of the Four Harmony Kings with "Blackbirds Co." LONDON, ENGLAND It is most interesting to "Americans," especially to know and see, just how wild all of London is about the "Charleston," which I am sure is fast dying out in America now. However, the 'Charleston Hall', at Albert Hall was without a doubt the grandest affair that has been in London for quite sometime. Unusual to see almost the ten thousand and people that attended simply "tumultuous mad." Then when the ver- very clever "Johnny Budgs" made his appearance it was easy: the loudest applause reception of the entire evening. After he had finished his initially the applause was being "He worked for forty minutes," and all during his life the applause was wonderful. No wonder that his name is a by- name. He's well as everywhere else over here, and he's a man. well as everywhere else over every the London papers declare that 'Hudgins is really the man in London for a long time. He has had three or very fine offers to appear in musical comedy, as well as in the leading "night clubs". But his contract with the "Blackbirds Co. will not permit any acceptance any of their offers' offers of Without any tear of contradiction since being here, "Johnny Hudgins" is initiated by great numbers sometimes who seem to take light in trying to copy the work of which he makes him all the popular, because after all the there is not lying like the original. It is certainly remarkable the wonderful success of this show 'Hudgins' has made him from an information point, and I do hope it is not far off before he shall see "Johnny Hudgins" in a read musical show. There is one and only "Johnny Hudgins", and in saying that he is the successor to the Bert Willis is really a very, very true conduit. Hudgins is indeed a great credit to the stage as well as to the Negro race in the show business.

If there ever was an audience production, it is "Dixie Brevities." It has everything that a show should have to get everyone satisfaction to all classes that fans like. It should definitely establish not only Miller and Slater, its owners and producers, but also a large cast and beautiful chorus, a rosebud garden of girls. In addition to its funny comedians, together with the shows gorgeous outtakes, they have some of the handsomest costumes any show ever had cause to boast on utilizing. This colossal organization of songwriters, musicians, furcures, hilarity experts and gloom destroyers are now making theatrical history over the country. In addition to all the latest novelties which embrace modelling and the last word in jazz music. Seldom has the Bijon reverberated with such hearty laughter. Surprise features out of the beaten path being presented, while the song hits, humorous and sizzlinglifting dialogue, scenic and electrical effects deserved all the attention the audience which was their respective capitals.

A. And what's more, they're getting latest gadgets and technology to say about vaudeville being doomed. And Nashville's theatergoers, the colored people who attend the Bijon, do not seem to cater to this line of You know yourself that there is no more interest than can be found in a good musical comedy production. In good comedy, S. H. Dutley says that the day for vaudeville in the colored theaters, is doomed. You know yourself my sweetest friend, you know what fun these days that the other fellow wants something with speed to it. And I prefer myself seeing a good musical comedy show. I love folks.

DR. CHAS. SYLVESTER IN OPEN FORUM Vocational Education Head Invites Suggestion For New Preston St. School HOWARD YOUNG TO SPEAK NEXT SUNDAY "Many people are not interested in vocational education because they do not know what it means," said Dr. Charles W. Sylvester, at the Open Forum at Bethel Church, last Sunday afternoon. "But we have just begun to scratch the surface of taps kind of training in Baltimore, and we have begun to give girls and girls in our schools is receiving the type of education best fitted to his needs." Dr. Sylvester, who is the Director of Vocational Education in the city schools, gave a general talk concerning the nature and the aims of his work. He said that vocational education is broader than a mere trade training; it is giving each child who goes through the city schools, an opportunity to try himself out in several lines of work, so that by the work lost served to his talents, he may not be classed as a failure. In the same course of his talk, the speaker praised the principal of the vocational school at Cumberland street street in New York, that is being there. He said that the school was a better one than the white vocational school. "Many boys and girls who do not like the academic work in the ordinal school and become enthusiastic about the same kind of work, 'This,' the speaker asserted, "is because the academic work in the vocational school is applied to the trade work." Our attention is always paid to the problem of furnishing to the boys and girls in school, the kinds of work they are likely to have opportunity to follow for a living when he is doing his job. Dr. Sylvester, "is to hold in school the 14-year-old boy in the fifth grade, whom the law does not require to stay in school, and who drops out to 'to work.'" "We want vocational training that will hold this boy in school." In reply to a question concerning the kind of training that will be offered at the new Preston Street school, Dr. Sylvester said that fortunately he had to evacuate his finest department in the city. One feature of it may be a longer school day. There will be offered five or six kinds of work, and tests will be given to determine the fitness of a child for a particular type. The speaker said that many students from anglia that might aid in developing the kinds of training to be given. Mr. Brisueau, principal of the vocational school, spoke interestingly about the work being carried on at his school. A violin solo by Stanley Brown, accompanied by Maddux Redmon, and a piano solo by Miss E. Myers, completed the program. He played for next Sunday will be Howard Young. His topic is: "Some Negro's 'problems and their Possible Solution'." FOR ADULTS SAMPLE FREE COOPLES A. NEVER & CO. BALTY MD.

Douglass A petition to have letters of testamentary granted to "one, Frederick Douglass" in the estate of the late Mrs. Victoria Handy, revoked was filed in the Orphans' Court by Charles Holley, only brother of the deceased last week. The Douglass referred to is the Rev. Frederick Douglass, pastor of an A. M. E. Church here. Mrs. Handy died on January 3 at Provident Hospital from cancer. Three days afterwards the will was executed. The plaintiff, who is a resident of Brooklyn, N. Y., states that due to the character of the disease she was at the time the will was made in neither mental or physical condition to execute such will. Against Advice Of Physicians Mrs. Handy was the daughter-in-law of the late Bishop Handy, and Miss Helen Handy, a former teacher in the city schools, she has lived alone. When her condition became critical, she placed in the St. Joseph's Hospital, but several days prior her death, say Holley's President Hospital, against the advice of some of the hospital authorities and there they believe the say who caused the death. According to their and Evans, attorneys, not signed by Mrs. Handy but was signed by them, a mark. They are prepared, they said, to show letters and other correspondence to that Mrs. Handy was able to read and write, and will produce such prove that Mrs. Handy either did not sign that Mrs. Handy either did not sign that she was not in position to sign. The bill recites that the will was not signed by Mrs. Handy or anyone in her presence. It further notes that Mrs. Handy did not know or understand the contents of the will. The will, the bill sets forth, was procured by undue influence exercised on Mrs. Handy. Provisions Of WWI The provisions of the will died by the Rev. Douglass on January 8 on which letters of testamentary were granted are as follows: To Rev. Frederick Douglass, my passport. To my brother, Charles Holley, $50; To five nieces, Gladys Spear, Catherine Miller, Blanche Holley, Dorothy Lee, Blanche Molly Killian, $200; To Veronica Molly Killian, my cousin, $100; To Ella Eckles, $150; To Martha Jackson, $150; To Robert Clark, $100.

SPECIAL STORAGE RATES First Class Service BISHOP BROOKS SPENDS FINAL SUNDAY HERE Preaches Sunday At Ebenezer In The Morning And Centennial In The Evening RAIN MARRED BIG PHILADELPHIA MEETING Crowd At Gibson Theatre Contributes $400 For Liberian Work Bishop W. Sampson Brooks will spend his final Sunday in Baltimore. The bishop who soils February 9th for his Liberian field, will preach Sunday morning at Ebenezer A. M. E. Church and at night at Centennial M. E. Church. Rain marred the big meeting under the auspices of college fraternities, staged at Gibson's Theatre, Philadelphia, last Sunday afternoon. The theatre was half full and contributed $400 toward the African Final Reception Bishop Brooks will be given his final local reception by a committee of 100 at Bethel Church, Friday evening, February 4th. It will mark the 40th of a strenuous effort by the bishop who started out to raise $20,000 for his missionary work among heathen Africans and who has in hand nearly $17,000 of this sum. The Rev. Reverend Stephen, pastor of Bethel Church, heads the committee and has associated with him a number of pastors and leading citizens without regard to denomination. The city will regard this, Dr. Stephen said, as the first tribute Bishop Brooks, who is one of our own and now leaves us to complete his work in the African field, "We all feel." Dr. Stephen said, "that Bishop Brooks in the next year or so will wind up his affairs in Liberia and come back to us to TRADIE IN YOUR OLD FURNITURE if you have any old or worn-out furniture that you no longer need, we accept these articles as part payment on the furniture that you buy from us. This is: the last effort he asks us to make. We ought to do everything anything else we expected. Bishop Brooks is ours we are his. If he fails, we fail. If he suffers for the necessities, of carrying on his work. Bishop Brooks looked to be in good health and spirits despite a strenuous campaign. "I am ready to go back to my field to put in another effort on the mission field." Bishop Brooks said, "and has blessed our labor and I am grateful to all our people who have made it possible for us to wage a successful campaign for funds."

Request of Supervisor Francis M. Wiley to visit the city be permitted to celebrate National Negro History week, beginning Monday, February 7, was Said he: "The 14th and 17th wards must have their representatives. The white candidate should come from the 13th and 15th ward. I am bitterly opposed of the plan to have two and one colored population to compose the ticket. Four years ago we had two places on the ticket and with the increased colored population in the district I cannot see the wisdom of consenting to such a plan.

Open Late Industry Week Before outlining the plans for Industry Week, Mr. Hill, who had just returned from a trip to the Pacific Coast, where he went to study industrial conditions, told the board on the back of employment opportunities in the West. Although, he said, there is a wide spirit of compulsions in the West, many avenues of employment are closed to colored people. Thus, he believed to be the greatest barrier between Negroes and jobs. Behe told how the Industrial Relations Division of the Urban League was endeavoring to break down these traditions, and at the same time develop the group itself in Saturday, Jan. 29 2nd Section BROWN'S GROVE AND STEAMER FAVORITE Also Fro mTowns on the Bay to Brown's Grove This is the only steamer and the only park in the State of Maryland run exclusively for Colcred People and by Colored People.

THEY ARE NOT GOOD BUILDING MATERIAL FOR A MAN. LIFE AND CHARACTER. Adolescence is an extremely difficult and vitally important period in a child's life. Tremendous changes and going on in every part of a child's life are determined by the training and environment of this period. And not one parent in a thousand is able to handle the problems which necessarily arise, so you can imagine how far off we are from handling them with wisdom. Calpayou told us that the sex instinct and the religious instinct are the two strongest and most dominant instincts in the child's life at this time. Both are the primary identity and are the controlling factors. To me there is something decidedly arresting about this bit of information. The sex instinct—supposed to be our lowest, and the religious instinct,—admitted to be our highest, in company with each other. When you grasp the full significance of that fact, you begin to examine and take to pieces the orthodox attitude toward sex, wonder if we haven't rather bungled our teachings along that line. Judging from the company it keeps in the normal and God-planned development of human nature, one would be expected to think of sex as something noble, not something base. And yet all our teaching has been to associate the instinct of sex with all that is shameful and bestial. This instinct, which is one of the greatest powers in human nature and which develops side by side with the religious instinct, is "treated as a subject fit only for furtive whispers or silly jokes." It has been dragged down into the gutter and made a dirty thing. And back of all the misconception is ignorance—woofal, wasteful, wicked ignorance. We just must learn, ignorance yet of our taught the fundamental laws of our nature. That we have yet to learn that the great impulse of sex is being and is not in itself base. On the contrary, it is something noble in essence. Sex instinct is a sign of development of a high-mindedness in the history of sex and procreation is a history associated with the rising of humanity in the scale of being. Humans have a lot to unlearn as well as a lot to learn. We have misunderstood the true meaning of some of our knowledge. We have twisted and disoriented and proverted them. And it now behooves us to right about face and both learn and practice the real truth concerning them. Of all the matters which concern the relation of the sexes is one which requires perfect frankness, ren knowledge and courageous bravery. In short, the lesson adolescence is that sex goes hand in hand with the best and highest within us.

Summer And Winter Sunbaths For Babies In the northern States during the winter months from November to March it is often difficult to give babies the heat of the sunlight which we would so gladly dispense with in July and August must be used in the winter and spring. It has been found that the temperature in winter may be 40 or more degrees higher in the winter than in the spring and the sun be allowed to shine on the cheeks and face. During these months, moreover partial sun baths may be given in an open window. The window may be opened at the top or at the bottom, but it is important that the window which has come through the open space. During the indoor sun bath it is best to close the doors of the room to avoid drafts. The indoor sun bath is also needed. The indoor sun bath as for the outdoor. Babies who have become accustomed to indoor sun baths in winter may be given an outdoor sun bath in January or March. Beauty Hints BY NINA TEMPLE Bu Nina Temple With the years come an increasing sagging of the whole race. The line from the chin to the ear, begins to lengthen and then to sag below its ear. This trouble is generally corrected by very expensive devices that strap up the face through the hours of sleep. But a very simple solution is to tighten under the chin and tie over the head very tightly. If there is a tendency to have a doubled chin, use two stockings one a bit more under the chin. You should be sure to use the face tightening process described in last week's article. Next week, we will talk about a beautiful neck. By R. A. ADAMS, P. N. B.

Just as we predicted one rarely over hears of high blood pressure now because no excuse could be found to operate on patients with it. Happiness is largely a matter of refusing to want what you can't get. Forgetting a grouch will make it leave home. A Baltimore Doctor says some folks may have died from want of medicine but few have ever died from need of it. We Are Becoming A Tabloid Race Says Maybelle Chew Movies And Radio Making Us Into Mental Sluggards Declares Woman Writer—Some Kiddies Nowadays Come To School Knowing One Nursery Rhyme The other day I went to a book sale. It was in a big department store and hundreds of books were piled up for sale. I was hungry gaze swept the titles, I was amazed to find that most of them were new best sellers, and books that had been printed in the 1960s. Why is this? I pondered. Then the thought came to me. "Because the United States has ceased to read." The development of the newspaper and the moving picture, and 'recently the radio have made us a nation of mental gluggars. Once we looked to the newspaper, but not the movie the newspaper the better we like it. Anything that will give us the story quickly is what we crave. And thereby we miss a beauty of life. One Sunday at the Open Forum after reading a list of current events, cheerful and inspirational, I had gleaned from the AFRO of the previous week, the gentleman presiding over the "Thursday." That he had not seen half the things in the paper that I had read. He said that perhaps I had been a folk told me afterward that they had not noticed the things either. No wonder, they read the paper from the newspaper, a new murder or scandal was up. And they were perfectly contented. That was all in the paper for them. It is liberal education in many of the features in present day newspapers but the reading public "on't see half of Books Listing A moving picture is made for the present. Last year's moving picture is as stale as last year's, and we are not attention. But a good book written by an inspired man or woman is as lasting as the granite on the sale of books that I attended there no books by Thackeryay, Dickens, Read, Harrie, or Lytton. Neither of them was there. Over on the regular book shelves these books stood in good bindings and at high prices. The Vadis were on sale made the mistake of writing for the present to please the popular taste instead of molding it. No wonder the store was over. No man or woman who calls himself or herself cultured, can afford to neglect his reading and education. He can to give to the individual the accumulated culture of the ages given to him by education, of thought, the trend of life, and a view of the road over which man has come. You can't get that from books whose sole theme is the need to expect a nation to live harmoniously when its poetry has neither rhyme nor reason. "Dearen" Some of my friends limit their reading to the comic strips in the papers. "One asks about a new book to high-brow. (That is all except 'Nigger Heaven'. Some of them have heard that it is shocking and they are just amazed. You can't读 Dickens' Oliver Twist," or "David Copperfield" and feel in the mood these books with their grim picture of life in the raw, grip the mind and the emotions, they change and they stay and can yet influence the thoughtful mind. "Isehoe" I missed moving pictures re-reading 'Ivanhoe' or Treasure Island, snatched me from in front of a car while I was burlied in "Huckleberry Finn" or easy reading. One can never be dull who has read Lamb's Essays. Their gentle summons the machets of the The keenest mind will react to the logic and brilliance of Emerson, who wrote a dictionary in one hand to read Carlyle cannot blind one to his supervative power as a thinker. And good company in Netsche even if you can't spell his name. And Schenhausen, who will console the morbid. **Dodged Reading** When I was in High School many students though, like Carlyle, were signed up by the English teachers. My innumerable young relatives in High School today are seen on putting one over on the teachers. 'It will take years to show them that they have robbed them of their books and a day that I read my books myself.** **Don't Know Nursery Rhymes** The same. The graded school are the children of folks who want to school as recently as fifteen years and twenty-one years, but we often not knowing one, nursery rhyme. I see teachers reading 'Anderson's Fairy Tale' in order to Gilles. to tell them to the pupils. Snow White, Red Riding Hood, Hansel and Gretel. The House in the Woods, the Garden, have been engraved on my memory since childhood. The greatest problem in the schools today is to make children LOVE reading. It is because so many come from homes in the countryside. "True Confession", and father's library consists of the sporting page from the daily papers, the book in the coat pocket because their coat pocket is forbidden. Sometimes the children bring to school when we bring to magazines. Unread Books. Some one has said, "Tell me what you eat and I'll tell you what you read and I'll tell you whether you are educated or not." Many folks have lots of books. Beautiful sets. Several times on a xing permission. look at one I have found the pages uncut. Their libraries are built by the foot. On by the foot, the pages are a dollar a week. America needs more libraries built book by book. Shabby books with thumbed pages, a page of pageage gained, than a half-dozen highly glazed bindings between ornate book ends. Use poetry as the language of love. The sultor today is more likely to bring his best girl a word roll of the tongue of Browning nicely bound. If his is real, it is more likely to say, "I could give you all my kale" like Tennyson. Grow old with me. The last of life is be. The last of life for Which the first was made.. Trust God, be not afraid.. "Reading maketh the full man." Read the psalms of David in the Bible. Sometimes they rhyme and swell vast organ chords. Just for sheer beauty, Ecclesiastes tell the deliverer be loosed, or the golden bowel be broken, or the wheel broken at the cistern. . . Read some of Whittier's shorter poems, where occur such expressions, which add life. "I know where His islands lift The fronded palms in air, I only know how hard his bone has to care." If you feel as if you don't want to be so religious read "Invitus," or "Whaling" or "L'envoie" in the book Paul Lawrence Dunbar. Very few folks like poetry so I won't bore you much, but will stop by saying that Paul Lawrence Dunbar poems in straight English so if you are ashamed or his dialect poems read some of them. He also read a number of short stories. Alex Dumas, who wrote "The Three Musketeers," w.a.s a French Negro. Anyone can read Barricade stories. Shakespeare is deathless. Great books can never die, because they bubble up from the well-springs of the mind, a crystallized thought of the ages. We need to read these books. We have been divorced from our culture for hundreds of years, and we are divided by our own. These writers are bigger than one nation. Their appeal is universal, for it is to the spirit of man, not the flesh and the senses that they call. Their works have translated into many languages. High School Reading Coming through High School or college, and grudgingly reading, doesn't make one well-read. No man has a right to boast of his education who does not on the great books of literature. Let the white men throw their traditions of if they were ours, and our owes ours to throw them away. Let us not make the frothy literature of today ours. Our life does not let the present generation grow up ignorant of the men whose pens have been dipped in the living fire of in- No Vocabulary So many folks who call themselves educated have no vocabulary. They attempt to cover this with their betrayals their woeful lack. Let one use a word of more than two syllables and right away such expression as a dictionary or "my, m'ny, my highbrow are heard from all sides. It seems to be a disgrace to teach anything other than that we need to afford to flout knowledge. Reading good books will give "essays" to all that we can, cannot afford to flout knowledge. Character will not only develop these things in the individual but will give one an enriched vocabulary, will come better realization of situations. Words—the tools of speech will become keen-edged, take on new forms of thought until eventually; one will make rapid steps towards a new education. Education the fullest development of all the powers of the individual. Read Good Books.

So fast that Diflores飞 wing her way back to her mother's perch that she failed to notice a carefully ice cake which some careless housewife in Man's Kingdom had left on the wrist of her daughter. Diflores did Diflores scream bewailing the fate of Philip that soon a long line, representing every creature in Wingland, flew behind her trying to undercover and happened to her precious brother. When this little band reached its destination, Mother Fly immediately understood everything and giving one idletoo swish to her wings, the screamed once — twice — thrice, "My Philip, Mr. bumper, Mr. Philip," "Yes, mother," panted Flosie all out of breath from her flight, "Philip is caught in Susio Spider's castle." "Now, Mother Fly, do be quiet a moment and let us see what can be done," wisely counseled said Mr. Beetle. "Yes, let's see-e-e!" sang Jimmy Mosquito, but for once he forgot to add the sting to the singing. "Jimmy, you're just the one!" plied up all of the thousand gnaties, indeed the whole thousand were needed to make one voice. "Of all the creatures in Wingland your bill is the sharpest." "No! No! Not me-e-e!" Jimmy screeched in alarm. "That's what happened to my brother. He went to see Sunder, my son!" "Yes, Jimmy," interrupted Mr. Beetle, "we know that story. Don't recite it again. We are wasting time." "Hurry! Hurry! My poor boy Philip," wailed the anxious mother. "Ah! I have it," merrily chirped up Cassie Crelet. "Last night I heard Mr. Owl, who lives in the rotten oak, boast that he is the wisest of all creatures in Wingland. Let us go to him." No sooner was the word said than the little assembly winged its way to the rotten oak where Mr. Owl was perched up-right on the highest limb—fast asleep. "O! how can we wake him?" cried Mother Fly. "He hasn't even batted an eye since we came." "Listen carefully, everybody. We will all buzz three times around his head, and that noise will certainly disturb him," suggested Mr. Beetle. They arranged themselves in a circle and round and round they flew. They Wise buzzed but Mr. Wise Owl slept on. "Well that won't do," finally合会 do. Mr. Beato. "Now what else can we do?" Let me oe-e oe-stringing-him im-mentions Mr. Beato's words with the action. He stung and stung and stung, but Mr. Owl stirred not. Giving up is deepa Jimmy turned to Mrs. Busy Bye and screamed. "You see-o-e he doesn't sit for me-o-e. You see-o-e he doesn't sit for me-o-e. You see-o-e he doesn't sit for me-o-e. You well know how I hate to call anyone who is sleeping, but since it is so busy, he certainly try this on me. Replenish me. With might and main that lady set herself to the task, but she too stung. Don't let us waste time on anything that is stupid enough to sleep the day before. Maybe would be better to say Susie's castle. Perhaps she will be frightened. Yes, yes, waited Mother Fly, "Just to be near my Philip!" Away the little band flew. Then a trace of Susie, her castle, nor Philip did they find. I know I left Philip in Susie's castle right here.

Home Education A MODEL CHILD Marton Brownfield "Every mother hopes that her child will be a model child, and some secretly think that their are models, although they are apt to add that 'don't expect children to be perfect.' But we quote a wise old French philosopher, 'Children need models rather than critics.' When we come to school, we need a model child models a model mother. A school teacher readily recognizes those children whose mothers are 'on their job,' for well-behaved children come to school, and while school teachers, friends and relatives have influence with children, the mother's influence is first, nearest and most personal. The hand that tucks the cover in at night is more intimate than the one which corrects the arithmetic paper. Of course the conscientious mother teaches her child honesty, kindness, patience, and discipline. But the model child is not conscious of such teaching. The model children, being extremely intuitive naturally, observe and copy whatever is close at hand. The model mother shows how to do it, and she goes out of her way herself, to show deference to the grandparents, and the children unconsciously take care in their manners toward old age.

"Why it's Jennie Wren! How did she leave her eggs?" Mother Fly was a little curious even in her sorrow. "Yes, it's Jennie Wren and I left my eggs long enough to punish that boastful, mischief-making Susie. I wouldn't let her live in a silver castle while I had to keep my eggs warm in a dirty old nest so I flew right into her castle and flapped my wings. Now there is nothing left." "But what became of Susie-e-e-e?" "She made a great blessing sound and ran away." "And where is my Philip?" Mother Fly screamed. Screamed, he climbed up. He was Philip there? Jennie Wren asked in surprise. "Maybe Susie仕e him-im-im," Jimmie said. "Ate whom?' asked a new voice. The little company turned; and there was a crush. Susie's castle on his wings but just as whole as ever. Susie's castle didn't get me. Just as she started toward me--there was a great crash, and the old castle crumpled. Susie was happening. I crayed away." Great excitement followed. Jennie Wren, finding herself the heroine of the story, took the eggs until Billy came for her. Mother Fly and Flossie just swished and round the precious son and brother. Philip so glad to be free again promised Jimmy Mosquito after ever after. Jimmy Mosquito just sung louder than ever, "We'll see-e-e-e!" (Look in this column next week for another tale of the Windlata).

If she is scrupulous about paying bills and giving everyone his due, the model child likewise scorns to cheat. When a mother permits no waste in the kitchen, he should clean, mended, bread and cleaned, the model child, though he does not become fauless at once—this is too much to expect—has nevertheless the masculine and feminine, firmly fixed for the rest of his life.

Rotten! Terrible! that is all that can be said of the decision given at the end of the tenth round of the Tiger Flowers-Lec-Lomiski battle here this afternoon, by Harry Lee. The Harry Lee duplicating or exceeding the act of the thievery perpetrated by the referee of the Flowers-Walker match in Chicago, raised the soggy glove of the tired Lomiski as the winner. Fully two-thirds of the 20,000 personnel away from the baseball park believing that Flowers had been given the decision as a majority of those present left their seats and turned to the exits taking it as a foregone conclusion that Flowers was out in front all by himself. It was the worst defection handed out a referee since boxing has been legislated in the state of California, and as usual, the dear public, who pay the freight and occasionally lays a bet was the loser. Of all the ten rounds fought here under ideal conditions, he lost all but one. He possibly had an even break in two rounds when Flowers far ahead, coasted, giving an exhibition of ducking趾停膝, blocking and Knocks Lomiski Down In the third round, Flowers scored a clean knockdown with a hard left Lomiski's head and in the sixth and tenth he rocked Lomiski to his heels with similar blows and manicured knuckles. All all signs never held and led the battle all of the way. His lefts to the head and uppercuts when in close were with tightly CLOSED GLOVES. Lomiski, but but one thought in mind and that was to land a right after that he hasn't landed a clean right yet to the lead. It was conceded before the fight and after seeing the men in action for nine and nine-tenth rounds that Lomiski could only win by a knockout. Flowers' blocking made him an airight that he was never in danger from the crusade "assaults" Some Business Done Somebody did "some business" on the flight and it is a certainty that Flowers was not in on it as he finished too far in front. "Guessing"—I should say that Lomski was given the decision so that miski-Walker is not slaged next to him. Lomski is not liable to beat Walker but it a cinch that Flowers will when they are rematched. It was announced before the main event that Walker would be matched with the winner. When brought into the ring and introduced, Walker was roundly booed. Lawson Knocks Out Shector Rob Lawson, white, Lightheavy-weight champ, score a technical K.O. over Marvin Shector, white, in the fourth round of the tournament, semi-windup.

A. get it fixed! Since Lincoln's entrance into the C. I. A. A., has virtually done away with the rivalry between Howard, Lincoln and the C. I. A. A., it is now time the Capitol City Athletic body got together and invited some of the above circuits teams up to play a tough game. Hampton would draw a record crowd, so would Union. As matters stand now, all parties involved are losing money. The C. I. A. A., ought to take it upon themselves to ask Howard for aid in the school feels that because of its position, yielding first would be out of the question. Next year Howard will meet practically the same football foes they have played against, and games played netted any financial profit according to Dr. Emmet J. cott, secretary and treasurer. As long as Howard is bull-headed, the C. I. A. A., bull-headed, both are going to lose, and feel it too, from the fact that the game was bringing Hamilton, Union and A. and T. to Washington next year instead of Atlanta, Fisk and Morehouse, there would be a decided difference in the gate receipts. None of the games paid last year and the Lincoln game netted an enormous amount. Do not think that Howard is the only school losing, Hampton, C. A. and T., and otter of the C. A. and T., are in the same six as the Bisons. What now is get it fixed? Who Said Lincoln Was Out? The Lions may have cancelled their game with Morgan here on the 21st, but it was not because they had not perfected a schedule or the mid-year examinations.

They journeyed down to Chester the other night and gave the "Morris 'vee" a "pro" aggregation of that city a neat trimming 32 to 15. Last year the Pennsylvania made an unusually poor showing on the court. Morgan and Howard beat them at ease, in fact Douglas High School could have trampled them. This year, so far, the Lions have not been heard from and what they are getting together up there in Chester County is a mystery. The Lions are about to come to the conclusion that Coach Young had no court team, but he has. Dudley's Crack y's Crack Two Year Dudley's Crack Two Year Old SNLEFFY (With Workman Up) And C.

Victory Promoters To Match K. Q. Smith With Wills Or "New York" Cohen York" Cohen YOUNG HARRY WILLS BEATS 'EAT-EM-UP Referee Stops Fight In Seven Round When Wills Fails To K. O. Iron Man The fights staged by Burns and Franklin Rice at the New Albert are creating unusual interest and despite the fact that a slow rain fell on last night the crowd was the largest as- ssembled here yet, to witness the bouts. During the evening several local and out of town fighters were in- troduced, most of them issuing a challenge to "KIC" Moody, when he accepted. Moody's fighting, which is clean-cut and fast, is making him the crowds ideal and all fighters are entices to meet him. K. O. Smith, who is looked upon as the best youngster in the game, locally, has never been seen to his advantage, being assigned higher that are way beneath him, however, the promoters are here to meet. February 9th, they will match Young Harry Wills, who has defeated every one he has met in these meetings, and is one of the astest and hardest boys being shown here or Young Cohen of New York, with Smith. In the opening event Bruce Spencer was killed by Modest and trying to restoring the only logical knock-out during the evening. Moody Beats Wong "Kid" Moody gave "Eatting" Wong a severe beating in a six rounder, the former coming out unscathed, the latter receiving several brushes including a swollen eye. Moody's eye was the most examination of the professional fighter. As a windup Jimmy Reed was sent into the squared circle to meet "K. O." Smith, and it was likeliness to sledge a lumber in. In the puser oud Reed was binned twice, taking the count of nine. In the second round the fastest of Smith's blows and foot-work completely dazzling Reed. The referee gave Smith a technical K.O. in the second. Brighteyes scored a technical K.O. over "Kid" Field. The fighter had seemed to fear each other and a number of blows were missed in trying to hit and back off. Wills Again Victor Young Harry Wills was pitted against Kid Eat-em-up, one of the old-timers who has not forgotten how to step. The light scheduling for eight rounds was stopped in the seventh, after both pikers had received quite a bit of punishment. The first round Wills made double punches the waste double punches that were as fast as 1-2, managed to stagger the Kid who quickly recovered as the bed sounded. So fast and furious was theighting of Wills that the 'Kid' who is about 45 years old was found to be no match for the youth. However, the 'Kid' did not waste any blows or take the wings. The kid enjoyed by the crowd. He displayed gameness and the old time spirit and only had to be warned once or twice by the referee. A regulation ring has been installed in the auditorium.

Hi the merrio, how are you going to stop Coach Burrs' Howard Tossers who Monday night in the new Gymnasium decisively defeated the Bluefield Institute Mountaineers 40 to 19, before 800 spectators. That Tison machine is in fine run ing order and whatever combina- tions they must display unusual and superb form to sit the title. test, it was just another basketball in regards to the Blue-field con- gregate that's all. From the very on- set until about midway the first half, one could tell that the visitors were Berry, who came in for stellar honors do'g this game was a real star. They passed well and made his gold goals count. Of course, which spears he threw, of course, that he did his part and he did the bill. By the way, that boy Speats is to Howard, what 'Lanky' Jones is to Morgan. Berry and Speats had in Coates, Hill and Bun- drant a capable trio and their ex- hibition of basketball Friday night Now some cheers for Busted, because the Mountaineers really fought and fought hard, but over anxiety and poor shooting from the floor cut their points. The visitors did not score until one minute of the first shot was missed. Blirdrant made a foul goal count. The score stood then, 11 to 1. Up until this time, the Bisons by use of the four man defense, had hung up 11 points. Berry, who was credited with four field goals and two foul goals, the total of 13 points, the first ball with the whistle blew for intimation, the Bisons were leaden, 1 to 5. Emory Smith In At the beginning of the game, Mr. Emory Smith, Alumni and Field-Secretary called the spectators to order and recalled the fatal Saturday, when players were killed in a hit at a grade crossing, near Waco, Texas. He suggested that silence be kept for one minute and prayer be offered in tribute to the athletes. In answering his plea the son spectators stood and repeated the opening the second half, Brown, Burford and Hayden on consecutive goals tried to run their team's score up, but it was useless as Burford's boys compelled his usual methods into the fray and allowed of field goals between them, though this trie did not register as they kept the Bluefield boys from getting away, and gave Spears a chance to be the hero of the half. This strategy was registered for the first and 3 foul goals in final session. Wood In Wood and Trigg replaced Coutes and Campbell and continued on with the dance. Wood, who is a Baltimore boy, eats the crowd some lessons on how to handle a basketball. The Blueshield men who surrounded him time and again were amazed to see how easily Wood had led the ball from him to his colleagues to him to be termed a "give-in formation". For Blinkfield Hayden, Buford and Brown were outstanding, while in the Bison crew, Berry and Spears were the stars. In the preliminary game the Community tossers defeated the Howard Freshmen, 26-22. Unknown Makes High Score The Unknown, local junior tossers, hung up a high score for the city among the amateur class, a 60 to 1 defeat. Monday. This made seven straight victories for the Unknown Robinson, with six field goals, Morse and Watkins with five each. Robinson, with four each, led the attack. 1/4 OFF On our entire remaining stock of Winter Suitings and Overcoats. Plenty of weights suitable for spring wear. SQUARE DIEHL TAILOR SHOP 61 W.

UNION LOSESTO HAMPTON 37-29 HAMPTON INSTITUTE. VA. Hampton's basketball quintet played the 'Union University live for a win with a score of 37 to 29 on the Institute Gymnasium basketball court. The Panthers snatched the lead from the Blue and White dribblers in the latter part of the first half in a 10-0 victory, but if their lead could not be overtaken Hampton came back in the second half and ran the score up for a comfortable lead. Cotton, Hampton's promising forward, just could not be beaten. Jackson in forward and Gardner in center did for Union what Cotton, Fletcher, Hunter, and Taylor did to: jump on—played star basketball showed that they were all trained, as they had an excellent defense. The Hampton quintet will play the Panthers a return game in Richmond on January 29. Lincoln and Hampton will meet on February 5 for the first time in two years on Hampton's court. Basketball fans in foul territory will attend the two teams in action as the Lions are said to have a wonderful combination this season.

They were amused. Howard University against the same school last week. It is not known who'er "Lanky" Jones was hungrier than the rest of his teammates or whether he possessed a greater appetite for the barnyard fowl but the elongated center went on a culture, caging single-handed on a field court, establishing the season's record. Howard University has one of the fastest court combinations among collegiate circles and Morgan having already bested the Washingtonians in a close contest is scheduled for two more games with the Washingtonians in the second round of the local institution that Howard had downed the Mountaineers by the 52-10 score, interest was ripe. Professor James Carter, dietician, promised a special chicken dinner to his players if they accumulated a better score. Howard's prize was well worth working for. Jones and his comrades threatened to run the score up to a hundred and throw the boarding department into bankruptcy for a Turkey Dinner. So confident were they when they took the floor that the game was going to be a walk away that when brown of Storer enger a long shot and the Morgans became so disconcerted that it was several minutes before the Morgans remembered they had a goal. Clark tossed one and broke the spell. But Storer did not come (fought and fought hard). So hard in fact that Couch Drew yanked out his first team and gave them a chance to rest. The first half ended 15 to 4. A good lead but a long way from that dime. "Lanks" Roms Brown, who was the mainstay of the visitors took three from the floor. L. Jones tossed two and Jeffers one. J. Jones was satisfied with one fringe and the Mountaineers through. Then "Lanky" Jones started his march, with his eye on the score board and his car peeled to hear how many minutes he had left he dropped them in in quick succession. Nine, Ten, Eleven. Twelve and on, the Fans were with him, the Fans were with him, the Fans were with him. He created an affinity between the ball and the basket. It kissed the backboard and fell in. But time and tide wait for no man. The final whistle found him lacking. Hill ran second with five goals. Spencer, Clark, Sheffey and Wheatly got one each. While decidedly one sided, the game was not void of thrills. The St. Louis team was difficult in moving about the floor with all many of speed. They just seemed to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. CHICAGO CATHOLICS BEAT GREEKS 30-27 Chicago, (A.N.P.)—In one of the most exciting and hair-raising basketball games ever witnessed in this old town, the Chicagoans defeated the Baltimore Athensians Friday night for four thrills and your stare or heroes "rising to the heights" and all other such stuff that you read about in fiction, all were there in that game at the Catholic closed minutes of the game were ticked off and the timer held his gun in readiness, the Baltimoreans were leading 27-24. Blanchett, the Chicago forward "rung one" from the middle of the floor and made it 27-28. Once on the Lane Tech, was decided to keep up with his team-mate so he looped one in making the score 27-28, and after Poles failed to tie the score with a free-throw, Lester Johnson added a basket with ringer that brought the crowd to its feet and the game close. The Athenians presented one of the most brilliant passing games seen in these parts for several seasons in a general sensation that on a larger floor the Baltimore boys would have been the victors.

BY AFRO SPORTS EDITOR After two years of estrangement Howard University Board of Athletic Control and those in charge of affairs of the Colored Inter-Collegiate Athletic Association are as far apart as can be. In the athletic association are such schools as Lincoln, Hampton, Virginia Normal, North Carolina A. and T. College, Union University, of Bremond, North and Normal, and Industrial Virginia Theological Seminary. In fact, this association includes within its ranks all of the schools of the middle East having athletic teams of higher grades, with the exception of Howard and Algeria. In two years Ago. When Howard broke with the association two years ago because of the failure to agree on eligibility rules, the C. L. A. A took the stand that in the future its teams will be held in Howard and remain in the association. October 18th, last, the association took the lead in attempting to adjust these differences by inviting Howard to a conference of faculty officials declined, declaring that there was no hope of a conference affecting anything as long as the C. I. A. A. bar, against Howard was still in force. Ben Removed Willing, albeit Howard still notice, the association at its session a month ago removing the ban on Howard University and instead set up a rule that C. I. A. A. a teams in the future could play any college (Howard included the University's eligibility rules. With all of this, are amplified With all of this are amplified plain for complete harmony. Eligibility Rules However, it turns out that this is not the case, and that the C. I. A. A. must still amend its eligibility rules before there can be a question. The question then reverts to the fact as to what these eligibility rules are. Howard's Statement Howard's statement on this matter will appear in the AMERICAN JOURNAL January 15th seems very clear. Howard says that Petersburg, Hampton, Union A. and T. and Va. Seminary play men from the prepary department from the prepary department on the varsity team. Then when a man enters Howard who has played as a prep in any of the above schools the conductors who access to Howard University and enters the college department is not eligible to play on the Howard varsity team, against teams of the associa- Coles, Bess, Brown To make the effect of eligibility rules plainer Howard elites the case of Cole Ross and Brown, who while doing their high school work in some of these C. L. A. A. colleges became members of the college football team there. They played for three or four years. Now under the existing association eligibility rules af- Sports In New England Benner C.

After these men came to Howard and entered the college depar- ment they should not be per- mitted to play on the varsity against Hampton or Virginia Normal or Seminary or any of the other association teams. Howard's Contention Fair The AFRO-AMERICAN is notable to see whether Howard was able to right in its withdrawal from the C. I. A. A. two years ago or whether in its hitherto contention it has been right. Clearly, however, in its present contention Howard is absso- lately right and the C. I. A. A. is absolutely wrong. We are not here to discuss the fact as to the advisability of preparatory men, that is high school men. Heitorto Seminary, Normal, Virginia Seminary or any other association school, being permitted to play on the same test: with college students. If these schools have a strong emphasis, might seem to them necessary to strength n their team by adding to it available men from the high school department. If such men come to Howard University and enter the college department no rule of the association of the C I. A. A. or any other association should bar men participating in college athletics. The Reason For Learning Our reason for learning this, in all its detail, is that when Cole Ree* and Brown were in preparatory departments of C. L. A. A, schools and played on varsity teams, they were not regular members of the varsity by virtue of their academic standard, but only tenure or honorary position if the way in which they were still in the preparatory school. When, however, these men come to a college, like Howard or Lincoln, or any other school of the association, which has a college department, which has men, as college men, are eligible to join the college team for three years. Man Has College Rights In other words, no college man should be barred from playing on his college team because he was permitted to play on another college team when he was in preparatory school. We believe this is good logic. If it is poor reasoning we would like to have the weak points pointed out. Public Be Damned It isn't the purpose of the AFRO-AMERICAN to have the officials of Howard and the C. I. A. A. enter into an extended controversy. Of these colleges depend upon public support. If for any reason they break off athletic relationships the public has a right to public Demands Games The public demands games and fair play between Howard and Lincoln and Hampton and the other A. A. teams of adultery. The public has a right to say that there shall be a reconciliation. It hasn't the right to say which side shall make the first step toward it.

Wilberforce University considered the underdog in the contest did not result in the result of the game would be, and those present who saw the work of the Wilberforce combination which got a slow start in suffering three defeats earlier in the season confess that the team that represented Wilberforce was the best in the history of the team to run up a score on the Athletics and play them off their feet as they were played. It was just a fushide of shots and nearly every shot a basket. Superb offense and a stonewall defense were the Willowerforce tactics. Ward Evans, Richie, Harding and Smith were son just needed for the Athens and they just could not stop. The Willowerforce players would romp here and scamper there, pulling the ball out of the air, catching it on a quick bounce and accurate with their shooting as William Tell. The Athens just could not fathom the playing ability of Willowerforce. Thompson aside from being 1925 National singles tennis champion, showed the populace that he was about as well versed and skilled in basketball. He is a passing demon and it was the passing of Harding and Smith, the famous of Ward and Exward the shooting of Richey and Ward that sent the Athens away defecated.

Thoughts Of The Founder It is a blessing to have the opportunity to learn to do a thing the way it should be done, and not have to "pick it up," as many people do. It is a handicap if one has not the opportunity for a broader view of the subject, and breadth of view, as we all know, can only be gotten by experience or by advanced training. This is equally true whether one is to teach school, enter the business world or the profession. Many boys and girls are today occupying positions far beneath their capacity because of early specialization. We would then say first that one is to reach his greatest usefulness in life he should have some industrial training, not always for the sake of the things learned in school, but for the mental development that comes from working with the hands. Second, if a boy is to enter the industrial world his usefulness will be greatly increased if he has had an opportunity for higher education. J. N. Muffey Perjury Those seeking causes for the disrespect of law might well look into the Pullman case, as tried before the Inter-State Commerce Commission in Washington, Friday of last week. In this case, a Mr. J. C. Harden, a lawyer of Chicago, asked $25,000 damages because he had been refused a berth in a sleeping car at a railway ticket office in Atlanta, Ga., and had been coach to ride in there until he reached Evansville, Ind. Harden testified that ticket sellers in Memphis, Tenn., and Atlanta, Ga., refused to sell him a berth. One, M. Tahon agent for the company, testified that he had been ticket agent in Union station at Atlanta for the past 15 years and that he is the only ticket agent on duty except rush hour and it is his custom to sell pulman tickets to all applicants whether who received and need refused to sell such a ticket or a colored person. Now the AFIO-AMERICAN submits that Tahor's testimony is pure purity. The AFIO-AMERICAN states its firm conviction that Harden was refused a pullman ticket by the Atlanta ticket office. It is almost impossible to get pullman accommodations for the ordinary traveller in any city south of Washington, D. C. In some states like Florida where the state law forbids white and colored passengers riding in the same car, this law is used in the same manner to sell a basis for its reining (all colored people sleeping car births). Now purity is a serious offense if you don't believe it ask Earl Carroll, of the celebrated bathtub fame. As a federal crime it is punishable with a sentence of not more than five years in the penitentiary and not more than $2,500 in fines. After a supervised investigation on the Inter-State Commission will convince these gentlemen that the witnesses for the Pullman Company perjured themselves. The Pullman Company has probably saved $2,000, but it has lost its honor and in addition it has contributed to the almost universal disrespect for law in the United States. What Charge The sheriff of Danville, Va., is seeking an unidentified motorist who declined to stop and arrest the motorists whose car overturned last week. In the accident two of the women were pinioned under the overturned car. One of them subsequently died and the other was critically injured. The authorities unhinged the steward and the unhindered girls standing on the highway, begged for aid. According to the Danville papers resentment in the community ran high when the public learned that the girl's life might have been saved had she been released by the mob. Just a while before in the same community, another man who had attempted to release a white woman's foot from a stirrup when she fell from a horse was driven away by white men who afterward came upon the scene, threatened the dance and told to stay in his place. The autist who failed to aid the Two-po girl under the car evidently thieved this incident and believing she would be implicated in the wreck if he should stop, passed on and attended to his own business. The AFORO would be laid against what charge would be laid against a unofficialified motorist if the Danish sherif succeeds in capturing him.

A committee in its investigation found that $29 hospital beds are available at present for colored people, but that from 250 to $300 additional beds and an especially large number of private rooms are needed to take care of hospitalization. An investigation also shows that there are only six private rooms in city hospitals available to colored people. Our own hospital is in the Provident Hospital, and that only two of the 32 hospitals located in this city will permit our physicians to treat their patients. The committee's practical reasons for declining to recommend a municipal hospital are sound. It found that a 250 bed hospital will cost from $1,000,000 to $1,500,000 and that a sum of from $300,000 to be required for its maintenance. Such an addition to the city's budget will require an addition of from four to four and one half cents on the city's tax rate. The professional side the Mayors on the board found that a 260 bed hospital would require the services of 100 physicians, trained to do hospital work. At present, there are not 100 colored physicians in Baltimore and only a few of them located here have had recent practical experience in hospitals sufficient to become members of the staff. The committee voted to get behind Provident Hospital, a 60 bed institution, which is to open sometime this year. The staff of this hospital is to be colored and the advisory staff is to be colored. Finally, both the active and advisory staff are to be colored. It's worth while noting here that this committee declared the municipal hospital plan is the ideal solution of our present hospital problem, but it is not practical now and that Provident Hospital is the first Governor Ritchie has already asked the Legislature to appropriate $7,500 annually for this new Provident Hospital. This sum ought to be increased at least to $10,000. Mayor Jackson said he is willing to move in in the same direction. If the Mayor can find $10,000 a year from city funds toward this new hospital work. Provident Hospital will find itself in a position to operate its first year without the great spectre of debt hanging over it. Those of us who are interested in better hospital facilities in Baltimore and for a lowering of the death rate in this city and state ought to note that the municipal hospital project has not been killed as the press dispatches of last week stated, but simply postponed, and that at the time of the lawsuit against it was taken again to provide a municipal hospital for colored people. Malone Divorce It takes a mighty big man to marry a wealthy wife and live happily ever afterward. Any boob can marry a girl for the money or the money she's going to get when her rich relatives die. It doesn't take any great amount of intelligence to do this and then file a suit for divorce. It doesn't take a day or so and wealthy American girls usually buy off their beggarly foreign titled husbands rather than disclose their private and personal affairs before divorce courts and incidentally pay hundreds of thousands of dollars as payoff. There is some excuse for the woman "gold digger." Some women have little to sell the world except their personal charm and it knows it, and is preparing to escape is there for the shiek, the male dandy, who marries the rich widow and then evokes the might of courts to compel her to pay him a dowry out of funds she has accumulated through her own labors of those of her par- Of course, such a man knows in the beginning that upon marriage he can claim joint ownership of his wife's property. He ought know his wife's property and recount it, she would not turn it over absolutely to him to manage or dispose of. She could hire a business manager. She couldn't well hire a husband and a helpmeet. These are some of the considerations behind as Mr. Aaron E. Malone, one time agent of books and a public school teacher, pushes his suit for divorce from his wife, who is the millionaire owner and founder of Poro College, St. Louis. Malone built up her fortune by manufacturing and selling toilet articles. In business she made no mistakes. In love, she evidently erred by marrying Mr. Malone. In his suit, he asks for fifty per cent of the money he'll probably be satisfied with much less, and in addition he actually get much less than. Poro College will be compelled to pay in court costs, lawyers fees and receiver's claims.

You can thank on your fingers the big business institutions among our group which have survived the second generation. You can thank as its masters wage a "Kilkenny" cat fight over its spots because the flickering love of love has burnt itself. But the genius which built Poro College has also built the fore-sight to BUILD ALSO A GROUP OF MEN WHO CAN TAKE THE REINS AND CARRY ON. THEY NEED NOT WORRY MUCH ABOUT SO FLEETING THING AS LOVE. I love here is where the failure comes. Some day when we want to halt the enormous increase in divorces, we will learn to let LOVE dies out of the window. Perhaps Nature erred, but it set as the main function of human beings the need to improve human beings. We have not improved it much by making it seem more like a living being or bringing living together or annoying themselves money. Prosperity If poverty and want produce their social evils, prosperity also has dangers lurking about. Our Charlie Chapkins and Kirk "Bird" types which demonstrate the danger of too much prosperity. Why anyway? We want, should we too, practice to throw a custard pie straight and look funny, take $100,000 per year of our money while most of the very workers would be glad to get $5,000?

African Hospitals And Doctors And Doctors A medical school costing $2,500,000 and a hospital costing $1,250,000 are among the French government has given to natives in Nigeria, Africa, for conscripting them into the army. What France is doing in Africa is raising the price other governments must pay for them, that country. No doubt France is thinking of the day when African Nations will be thinking of thinking in China. A man won't let you come into his home uninvited. People who are people longer than he can help it. Big groups of peoples and nations won't elate. Fair Play You won't agree with the alarmists who say that athletics are playing too great a play in the proceedings when you read the proceedings of the recent student conference in Allawakee. More than 30 racial groups from every on record as wanting to give all races an equal chance. The spirit of fair play in athletics is larger than of the coming young men and women. LET EVERYBODY IN THE SAME LINE AND GIVE THE VICTORY TO THE ONE WHICH WINS FAIRLY. Letting the spirit of athletics down college life won't hurt as long as it goes in this direction. A similar number of grown up Christian repressors have taken the courageous stand these young people took. Churches and Sunday Movies Baptist ministers in their conference here joined in the celebration of Sunday movies. There are butter and worse things than Sunday movies. fight games, sight-seeing, ought to make ministers ponder what should be done with child life on the Sabbath. Here in Baltimore on school every day LESS THAN FIVE THOUSAND GO TO CHURCH AT ANY TIME ON SUNDAY. ON MONDAY, as undesirable as they are, would be safer than many of the "inside activities," including hooch parties which many teenage boys and girls attend. Wise parents will find it more profitable to plan for their children's own time from church. There is no such thing as an unused minute in a child's life, and thenant spirit own time from church. THE CHURCH MUST DEVELOP A PROGRAM THAT WILL TAKE THE COUNT OF THE NANT SPIRIT COUNT. When they do that they will not have to worry about the competition of Sunday movies.

Four of its theaters are owned by colored folk, and he apologetically says, that theaters of color have two white men on its board of directors, but the rest are OWNED AND OPERATED.

"Truth" Has Already Been Committed To The Editorial Bay View Asylum For The Microcephalic To the Editor: Don't you think its time to give us a rest from that half wit calling itself "Truth?" Not another paper would give so much free advertisement to ignorance as you are giving to it. If "it" wants to rear further it pay for it in some of the dailies. You'll soon see how long its raving will be published. I never miss a copy of your paper here in Washington but in Heaven's name let us be done with that half-wit in Mt. Washington. We all realize now that its an escaped lunate. Here's A Man Who Is Ashamed That Truth Belongs To The White Race. To the Editor: I am surprised to notice that you publish such rubish as that by "Truth", who claims to be white, on the outside but black at heart. I want you also to know that this woman, the white race man, I also was raised among Negroes, who understands them, knows their char- acteristics, knows that all colored men are not crap-shooters or jazz hunters. I also know that when colored men and women are given the opportu- nity they can make just as much as anyone else, I also learned that Negro music and Ne- gro humor is the best that I have heard and many times you can find me. I am so enjoying a pleasant event and not once did I find any fault with the crowds such as your friend "Truth", claimahte has. Of course, some of the crowd look at me with a curious look, but I can't blame them, for it is unusual for a white person to be in such close contact with colored people. But in a long time, I am more than intrigued than the white. Imagine a colored man or woman in the orchestra of the Maryland or New York orchestra, how educated, tolerant he or she may be. They must sit in the gallery and sometimes the back seat of a car, they are selfless for colored people. And such creatures as "Truth," who according to his writings, is the most ignorant of all, the white race has produced, can sit in a box seat as long as he has the price to pay. Good! I hope you will publish this an answer by a white man to a white man with whom he is ashamed to be classed. (Signed) Joseph Krechner. (Signed) 814 E. Presst St. Race Hatred Based On Color Only Is America's Peculiar Possession— Mohammedanism Superior To Christianity To the Editor: "Truth's" ignorance of Religion History, and General History, cannot be condemned. The Turks—Moslem and practice that all men are equal. They do not under any circumstances, practice or advocate hatred against any religion, or manifest all hatred manifested by the Turks or any Mohammedans, as causes of differences of religion, and that only. Obviously, "truth's" statements are not made from academic knowledge, nor from cosmopolitan knowledge derived from observation or contact. Evidently he hasn't traveled to any extent. The cosmopolitan have traveled extensively in Europe, visiting Turkey, Russia, France, Spain, Italy and other countries of the globe. In all instances where I've seen prejudice or race hatred, it was where the natives had come from, and in all policies of the American Cracker. These statements are not extemporaneous, but are made after an assiduous study of American hate whites every other nation or race that comes in immediate contact with it. If I wore to choose a religion or practice I would choose festations I would choose Mohammedanism. Mohammedanism does not teach or practice race hatred nor are it a religion. Mohammedanism I would choose Mohammedanism. Mohammedanism was born about 570 or 622. About his parents not much is known. How his mother was an African slave, his mother was an African slave, father an Arabian. And he was born near the Hedja coast, in Africa. I agree with you when you say there will eventually be a race war. Yes! the black races of the world are getting tired of the war. BIG AM white race. Japan's nerves are taut. India is restless.

Organized Government Has Broken Down In the Virgin Islands Says Editor Whom Courts Persecute. To the Editor: The manner in which I am persecuted in the Virgin Islands should not go unchallenged by you. White American friends have given me the unequal assistance to combat the oppressors down here. But this light is bitter and long, and I need all the help possible at this moment. The rumor is rumor in government circles in this Third Circuit Court of Appeals has returned the papers in the last contempt case wherein I am sentenced to $300 in prison and to pay a fine of $200 or serve 200 additional days in the penitentiary in St. Croix. Should friends fail to raise this amount, I will be compelled to remain in jail for 230 days. Under the Americans' Equal Opportunity notice to commute this sentence. Too great a principle is involved. What have I done to merit this persecution? Simply introduce in the American Liberty League the Emancipator a release from the American Civil Liberties Union of New York City without comment. I am a reporter and a friend in newspapers on the mainland. I am the head of a family of five who have suffered and will be made to suffer much more during my stay in the United States. The authorities have done all they can to make sure I front. They have failed, and will continue to fail. A man who was once a member of the WORKING PEOPLE COMMUNITY suit against the EMANCIPATOR for $60, due on his notes, with interest and a reasonable attorney there, but it is quite small sum there, but it is quite small sum there under present economic conditions. This man's attorney is the Police Judge and the case will be handled by Washington Williams, whose appointment I opposed in the press. I have written the International Labor Defense and asked them to raise that sum of money for us, for us, for the labor organ in the Virgin Islands will not be hampered while I am in jail. To Senator Willis and Congressman Keiss I have sent letters stating that the last letter from the District Court has expressed a desire to testify about the management of that Court. I want you to demand an investigation by Congress of this Court and another other testify. Verily, the statement of Senator Willis that "organized government has broken down. in the Virgin Islands" is true to say the least.

To the editor: Farseeing President strikes a vital spot, in the notions of the Christian religion in nationalizing, the religion of his country, by seeking his countryman's sole solicitor and administrator of church affairs. Doubtless, President King sees in this action the possibility of avoiding mischief, sometimes caused by contending religious bodies. This, no doubt, will go a long way to build a stronger and stronger union that independent union so necessary in making a brave and strong government of a sovereign people. His people's eyes seem wide open on this foreign religious policy, they may be, at the same time, closed on the foreign policy of Commercialism—which to us, means danger. The danger of Firestone with his rubber company, planted in Liberia from our view, is far more to our liking than Sampson Brooks missionaries. But President King is right, if foreigners are so anxious to do business in Liberia, let them take out naturalization papers, and become citizens of the Republic of the United States of America, that where goes a large capitalist, then follows, big battleships—Certainly, this is true in the case of large nations dealing with small nations.

Also Thinks Truth is Average Woman To the Editor: I doubt that Truth is a garbage man. His writings typify the social background of the American white woman from the preindustrial down through all classes to the lowest. The Chief Justice who said, The Negro has no rights which white women have bound to respect. He garbage man Werner G. Harding was president of this country, when he made those wild, inert, unorthodox remarks concerning speech. Truth writes us the typical American white man acts. It is the belief in Truth's venom that prohibits the teaching Bill and causes lack of consideration for us on the part of 98 per cent of the white population of this American Commonwealth. The paper is too valuable to be stained by such visceral emissions as Truth has been making. Give Miss Chew or Dr. H. Pickens his space. Bridgerton, N. J. The Week's Best Story THE SOUTH AND GOD A Massachusetts family was about to take a winter vacation of one month in the South. The little girl of the household had heard much of the state to which they were going, and so when she kneeled and said her prayers on the last evening before the day of departure, this is how she concluded her praying: "An now, Lord, goodbye 'till nex' month, 'caise were going to the South for four weeks." Heard and Seen In Baltimore By Ralph M. McNeils We Baltimoreans are lucky. We don't have to read about the danger of trouble with Mexico or get worked up over European value to get a war we have to have. We do is to go some of our Baptist Churches. To judge from reports every church is an armed camp, every deacon board is a department of war and every class leader is commander-in-chief of the army and navy. Just because church members are supposed to belong to the army Lord Lord Lord why they should be fighting all the time. When a new convert is baptized he don't know whether he will inherit everlasting life or be killed in battle. The difference mourners bench into a recruiting station. We Baltimoreans are going march into the kingdom with crowns on our heads and chips on our shoulders. We won't unless we get heavier raided. Of course, there wouldn't be any trouble in our churches if it wasn't for the pastor, deacons and members. They ousted church leaders last week and they felt real put out about it. A deacon and a chair leader in another church came to blows in a meeting the other night. It won't be long before instead of handing out hymns they will have to pass out bozling gloves. Georgia is beating about Tiger Deacon because he is the "Fighting Deacon". We have dozens of them around Baltimore and don't say a word about it. The only difference is when Tiger fought he got thousands of fine dollars and our deacons only got ten dollar fines. The children of Israel blew horns until the walls came tumbling and the bellmimics are trying to knock down the walls with our fists. Our churches have a split every time they have to elect a new pastor. The members who up the most flaws are the ones who pay the least on his salary. Some people want the pastor who makes the most noise, judging from dues we ought to get to heaven easier if we hired a yell squad. If being baptized is supposed to wash away our sins some of our churches will have to use a little more soap in the water. Most churches are divided into factions. When you join church you have to choose the pastor. If you don't want to get in a scrap you have to stay home and then the pastor turns you out for backsliding. If you stay out of church you might not get to heaven, and if you stay in you are liable to get beat up so badly you won't be when you get there anyway. It will be easy to pick out the Baltimoreers when we gather around the thvince because we'll have the bandages and gasping for breath. Others Say Rhinelander Dissenter (From New York News) It may be a strange coincidence— It is nevertheless worthy of note that in many of the decisions which colored New Yorkers were litigants. Hebrew judges have have often given the adverse decision of the dis- sension opinion. The cases of course, can be cited where clarion judgments have been given favorably to colored litigants, by stalwart jurists of persecuted race rule against them. Appalachian Division against Leonard Kipl Rhinlander with the single dissenting opinion being that of the sentencing office of Milla, a Hebrew, seeks to persecute the comely colored bride of the son of the aristocratic house of the Hebrew, by another Hebrew to further do so. The case will now be taken to the Court of Appeals—thanks to Judge Lazanak of Appeals, the Rhinlanders pitted against the poverty of the Joness in the appeal.

ADJUDGED BY "OPPORTUNITY" AS THE BEST COLORED WEEKLY, 1925-28 Saturday, Jan. Kelly Miller Says Can the new Negro arouse the masses to the vital importance of functioning in the formation and control of the government under which it lives and by which it will be controlled? This is the primary test of its capacity to cope with the situation by which it is confronted. For government is the controlling agency in society. Those who do not participate in formulating and directing the government will always be at the mercy of those who do. My recent release on the second generation of college breed Negroes has caused a disapproval among race in their hands. Those of the old.: generation must decrease; they must increase. We can only occupy the community because we must hold over to the.: the great racial estates bequeathed by our more illiterate forebears must be respected, and that concern they appreciate the high responsibility that devolves upon them. I have said that they are not as complex as they are complex. They must free themselves from the apron strings of philanthropy. A generation and a half is long enough, to rely upon outside. The great political estate of formal equality has been vouched as a bequest, and not achieved. The generation was not be able to maintain it. We relied upon the Republican party to uphold us in our guaranteed strictly. The party has failed us utterly. There is no human likelihood that the race will regain its pristine political prestige thru the benevolence of the Republican party. The good news has nothing but give up the ghost. The estate is about to be lost. Will the new generation now preparing for the stage of action possess the wisdom and diplomacy to restore this rapidly vanishing political power? Under the federal Constitution, the Negro has every right to vote. Even the revised constitution, on their face, are without racial discrimination. It will boot him from the office of its own old oligarchy for its high-handed ruthlessness in frustrating the constitution purpose. The Negro is politically indifferent. Senator Blease stated the other day that Negroes in South Carolina do not vote because they have no political interest. It is true of the Negroes in Harlem. Notwithstanding the numerous modes of persuasion so well known in the more than 100 legal votes in five in Harlem can be persuaded to qualify for that ex-merger, the more Negro arouse the masses to the vital importance of functioning in the formation and control of their lives and by which it will be controlled? This is the primary test of its capacity to cop with the demands of the fronted. For government is the controlling agency in society. Those who do not participate in the government will always be at the mercy of those who do. The fathers have built up and handed down a considerable property estate, mainly in the homes of the two farmers. Of the two the farm home is by far of greater importance. The farm home is capital of productive activity, the city home is dead, inert, unproductive. The only real worthwhile capital which the race has yet acquired is that of a million farms, out of which more than a million Negroes direct their own activities living. Otherwise they are but hired hands receiving the pittance and doing the biddance of the white renter and master that under the prevalent tendency of the newer generation, the race is losing its grip on the land in its mad rush after the glare and glamour of city life. What is gained in the city by means of less sustained in the country. Several months ago, I contributed an article to the Baltimore Manufacturers' Association, "The Face of the Negro's Best Chance." If we take a comprehensive view of this wild rush cityward, we shall gain a more comfortable social comparison than we derive from first glance. We look in vain for the asia-american will reach the stage of economic and industrial self-sufficiency. It looks more likely that its permanent abiding place will be furnished a place in the sun. It is up to the incoming generation to command the industrious race as well as its political fortune. Will the graduates of Hampton and Tuskegee as well as the output of the industrial universities furnish wise universities furnish wise industrial and economic leadership? Fathers built up a vast religious estate, comprising thirty thousand churches and four million members. This is a remarkable achievement recorded in the race. This vast religious estate was built up by comparatively illiterate men. But here the students realized zeal and concession. Be it said to the utter condemnation of the second generation that this great religious estate. The great religious denominations form the only type of organization which Negro genius has built up and which holds the race to permanent adherence and a persistent procedure. The race has developed a political organization that has the binding force of a rope of sand or a rock. The industrial organizations function but freely in the economic equation of racial life Into The Second Generation Negro Politically Indifferent Quarter Of A Million Farms Industrial And Economic Life Benevolent and fraternal organizations whose main concern is to thrive more lourishedly, after all that has been said that the Negro church has been done that can be done, standing fact remains that the Negro church is the one conceived achievement on this continent. Half Million Dollar Churches There are no Negro institutions in New York, or Washington, or through the generations except the churches. There are several Negro churches in Harlem which cost a half million dollars. One searches the city for an institution of dividing or social property. The Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. benefactions of philanthropy are the nearest approach. Thirty thousand pulpits must be filled during the next generation. The leading places in all of these denominations must Negro of this generation is neglecting his superlative opportunity for serving his day and genius. Negro of the Negroes were graduated from colleges and universities. I seriously doubt whether half a hundred of them were in high places of morals and spiritual guidance of the masses. Not Uttering Words Of Despair I am not uttering a word of despair. Somehow or other, God always finds a way to loosen my grip, and this country from the Eastern and Western as well as from the Northern to the Western waters in Negro churches, and extended ministers' meetings, in all parts of the land. I have never been so fortunate to find that the greater pulpits are filled by race of native intelligence, innate leadership, and resourcefulness accented by the performance of their ministerial duties rather than from formal schooling. What do shall know, is a social as well as a sacred law. But this does not excuse the college Negro of the rising generation. For the most part, the minister and prepared places. The education of the race is mainly under control of the white race, to make the positions and set the rules. The Negro teacher needs mainly to nt into the program. This is its very necessary and osseous task; it must be attached to those educated women and men who render this important racial salient, and that they are sheltered and shielded from what the white over-lord authorizes them to do and say what he permits them to say. They must be educated and trained in the oral life of the race. This must devolve upon men in independent positions who derive their power from the people whom they serve. The minister speaks with the power and voice of the multitude whom he leads in rightness. The Negro gro is expressed through the pulpit and the press; the two conspicuous organs of public opinion growing out of and among the people for whom they speak. Gayety And Friyolity I suggest in our Greek Letter Fraternities and sororities too, in their local and grand assemblies to give serious consideration to give serious consideration to ministry upon educated men. I wish to also caution the new college generation that it is devoting too great a fraction of its faculty to doctors convention, and from observation could not make certain whether it was a serious scientific gathering or an auto-education program, and their merry frocks gather from all parts of the land enrapied with the social festivities which all but drown the serious purity of the college. Our fraternities and sororities are heading in the same direction. I believe in play, in its proper place and proportion and no play makes Jack hard to stupid girl. But excessive frivolity in the midst of the grave responsibilities impending upon the rising generation might inadvertently complication of the duty to comprehension of the duty at this critical hour. No, I am not a pessimist, not a cala...it howler. I would not discourage the young by belittling their achievements and attainments. But I deem it a solemn duty which the older brother owes the younger to self-complaisant satisfaction.

Ministers Association by Rev. John T. Colbert, of Grace Presbyterian Church. In the outset this subject as it stands involves us into doctrinal differences which should be addressed for the underlying spirit of this age is to get away from doctrinal differences and meet each other on common ground where Gospel is the basis. The old schoolmen differed widely upon this subject and sometimes engendered feelings from ever after lifelong enemies. Faith in Christ as we are taught in the Gospel has same requirements as the Old Testament. Paul in Rom. 3:12 says that the method of Salvation revealed in the Gospel had the same purpose in law and the prophets. The third chapter of Gal. shows the same promise to Abraham is offered to us today on condi- We must acquiesce in the plan of salvation, renouncing all other methods of salvation except the terms which it proposes before we are made partakers of its benefits. We must to me that the modern theologians are losing sight of this fundamental doctrine of salvation by Grace as caught by the early fathers and by the modern theologians of Paul.

Wm. H. Thomas, D. D., Pastor the doctrine of salvation. Few men preach about sin in these times. My way of thinking never allows me to forget the history of the world when the ambassadors of Christ needed to emphasize more the doctrine of salvation taught by Christ himself. I never preached about a lot of non-essentials such as fads, social gospel, the historic Christ, etc., and not enough of the redeeming grace. Christianity to-day is in greater peril than ever before in its long history. It is not the peril of this world that hated the church and the peril that may thin' it is the greatest peril against Christianity. This is not true; the world is too ingent; the church is too indifferent. It is not the peril of sectarian, strife, violence, and the madness of the theologians, nor cur.ent ideas about the nature of man or the nature of Christ. It is the peril of abandoning Jesus Christ as the Redeemer from sin. His idea, that man is a sinner by nature is losing its hold upon the Christian people. To tell some people that they will be punished for their sins under the minister's condemnation upon the minister. Whatever other doctrine the Christian ministry cease preaching, surely the Grace should ever be kept ringing in their message to the people. If this is ever should the ministry should hold the field and the devil have sway. I do not perceive that this is why in God's everlasting Word standing w'n all else fall. This is my great hope and it inspires me to press forward and i'm more upon He's saving Bethel A.M.E. Church Bethel A.M.E. Church DRUID HILL AVE. AND LANVALE ST. C. HAROLD STEPTEAU, D.

According to the story told by the young woman she was in her bedroom when Cornish, who was unknown to her prior to that time, knocked on the door and asked for a woman who was housed to be taken in apartment in the house. When informed that no such party lived there he left. About an hour later she was awakened by hearing a key rattling in her door, she declared, and a with his head covered she towed in which he had been out for the eyes covered his way in. Loses Musk In Struggle The man seized her, Miss Kess declared, and struggled with her in an effort to throw her over the bed. When she fought, she struck and caused her to lose much blood. During the struggle the towel was torn from his head and she discovered that he was the same man who had made the inquiry at her room. Cornish was said to have accomplished his purpose before he left the room how- Invited To Apartment The young woman ordered his arrest the next day and positively identified Cornish as her assaultant. An officer of the police said that the girls mouth was badly injured when he was called in to the case. Mrs. Lillian Dorsey, 1401 McCulloch street, she told the house she saw the girl inside the house and Miss Virginia Davis, who lives on the first floor stated that she heard the screams but did not investigate. Cornish declared that he had been in the house for several months and that she had sent for him to come to her apartment. EFFICIENCY COUNTS SAYS DR. WOOD EFFICIENCY COUNTS SAYS DR. WOOD Efficiency, not age counts in promotion according to an address made by Supervisor Francis M. Wood, introducing the new grade teacher, the intermediate teachers, recently. Supervisors appointed in the two years Dr. Wood has had charge of the schools include Miss Adah L. Watts, former demonstration teacher, Miss Gladys C. Hunt, former Mary G. Brown, former principal of School 11$ and Miss Margaret G. Brownley. Two of these are younger teachers and two of them have seen longer service in the schools. Miss Brownley, one of the younger teachers, has years services but in this time has distinguished herself in methods as well as in teaching. Her appointment as supervisor jumped her from $1,500 to $2,100. Dr. Woos's remarks are echoed in other teachers who felt aggrieved at the appointment of the younger ones as supervisors are reported to have made a protest to the school board. Three Jailed On Liquor Charges Found guilty of the sale and transportation of liquor, William Davis was sentenced to three months in the Baltimore City Jail and fined $250 by Judge Morris A. Soper in Federal Court Friday. William Gunther and William Armstrong who plead guilty to liquor violations were also sentenced to sixty days each.

Another new Baptist Church was seen in the making this week when a number of officers and members of the Perkins Square Baptist Church announced their withdrawal from the church. Among those whom it is said sponsor the new body are deacons R. D. Wilson, James Johnson, and Harry Johnson, and are said to be in favor of the new body. These officers were not in favor of the Rev. Sydney Edwards, as pastor of the church. The new movement is the aftermath recently brought about over the election of the present pastor, the Rev. Frank Williams. Members of the congregation re-elected the pastor of the church. The new group is said to be holding forth at Chaldean Hall.

The Afro-American—Baltimore, Md.—South's Biggest and Best Weekly --- INDICTMENT AGAINST "HI" ADMINISTRATION CONTAINED IN TEN POINTS Fourth of a series of articles on the Douglass High School, Baltimore, written by an alumnus of the school. Friends of the principal of Frederick Douglass High School in Baltimore, and saying with whatever might and main they possess to stem the tide which is rising higher and higher every day and demanding a new efficient school adminis- They heroically host-competent competent-Mason is competent on what in substance means that. Now competence in the head of a modu school is more than the ability to put ones glasses off and on like an intellectual artistist. It means more than the possession of a diploma showing graduation from some school, even though that school be in the North. It means compassion, interest in the race, pity and a sense of the superior helping the inferior, occasionally played a conspicuous part in the granting of degrees to Negroes. It is incontrovertibly true that some of the largest Eastern schools have turned out some very poor material. Last Port I make no further statement about this, for "competency" is the last fort to which the bedrugged administration has access. Now, competency in such a position is a positive ability and a knowledge of the needs of the people he serves; as well as the methods by which these needs may be adequately and reasonably satisfied. It goes without saying that the present Principal of Douglas High School possesses full measure of these skills. University of Penn. But I propose now to touch the question of Academic competency again. I think it was in 1822 that Baltimore was rather set agree with the fact that our "competency" program was Pennsylvania and proposed to wrest from that venerable institution the FOURTH MYSTERY MURDER STIRS BALTO. COUNTY Another Man Found Shot To Death Thot Victim Of Same Bootleg Gang POLICE UNABLE TO HALT "LYNCHING" BEES No Clues After Four Killings Point To Highway Organized Mob A man, believed to be the fourth victim of a vicious and strongly organized bootleg gang was found shot to death in a clump of bushes at Cowenton avenue and Joppa Road, Bal- According to the story told by Mary, Mary Kruse, white, who lives near the scene of the accident, she heard an automobile drive into the wooded section near her home and saw seven people in a row. After a short while she heard five shots and saw the men leave in the car which was headed toward Behr Road. She could not identify any of the men on account of the dense fog. The discovery of the body came after an investigation into the mystery, which was conducted. The man was said to be about 25 years of age, five feet, eight inches and had but one eye. He also had a scar on the right side of his forehead. He wore blue pin shirt trousers and vest and a blue sweater. Three other victims, have been found during the last ten months shot to death in a similar manner. The killings always occur in the wooded sections of the county, where police believe stills are being conducted and in each case the murderers were tracked and authorities have been left without clues. In none of the cases have any arrests been made and county officials were with the city detectives have been helpless. In the third case suspicion was directed toward the Italian quarter near Eastern avenue, known to be a hotbed of crime, where the consequence could be obtained from this source. Revival At Asbury Rev. S. H. Brown, pastor of Asbury M. E. Church, will begin a revival at his church, on Sunday morning, January 30th. His subject for Sunday will be "The Man At Home," or "Starting In Life." CORRECTION The name of the Rev. J. H. Green was omitted from the list of the Mayor's Hospital Committee last week. The Committee's chairman was Dr. J. H. M. Rowland. The chairman of the sub-committee was Judge Joseph N. Ulman. Those Who Know Insist On BETHOLINE THE WONDER MOTOR A sweeping invitation from Mr. Carter to every well-disposed, sincere man and woman in Baltimore who respects their word of honor and knows how to live up to a promise.

His ambivalent sourced on wings above in every encounter with men. Didn't Friend FuBois have one of those coveted degrees in his posses- Off To Phills With the aid of trunk lines running through Baltimore, he assaulted this cladet of learning. There must have been times when he felt that he almost had a tail hold on this "Will O' the Wisp" of honor. Until now it has eluded his most valiant efforts. Why has the Principal failed? It may be that he will yet secure...the cladet of learning. So the three times have changed since he started to work for it. Many Things Though the applicants' work may be passible, he must show originality of thought and above all university officials must be convinced that the applicant will reflect credit upon the institution which grants the honor. Many things enter into the application process, but believe that the candidate for the degree possesses, not only high personal character, but he must also show evidence of intellectual ability of no mean order. In this series of articles the AMTS' instructions not to evaluate or validate an institution. Its aim goes bigger and deeper. The Issue Baltimore has some 3,000 secondary school children taught by a faculty of 60 or more in a million and a half dollar-school plant. This plant costs us as taxpayers several years' worth of money each year. We maintain that the best and most efficient principal of city schools should direct this plant, and that having discovered lack of discipline and inefficiency, the public has a right to know it and to demand that the school officials to evict its relief. Ten Points Articles printed in the APRC within a year quoted the principal 1. As unable to keep the School clocks in order because Western clocks violates the correct time by telephone. 2. As being responsible for a lock out order which shut a hundred or more pupils out of classes and sent them on a march of protest we were asked to supply a Supplier for Princess M. Wood, OU course, the late rule was rescinded, but next day, Mr. Wood was reported as visiting the school and again found the school clock five minutes fast. 3. Brought by the pupils when he attempted to halt cheering at a basketball game in the school gymnasium. MUSICAL AND LITTLE • Sunday, January EBENEZER BAR TWENTY-THIRD AND Rev. John W. Jor PUBLIC COMM Rev. E. S. Wittiams Rev. W. J. Winston H. A. Hayes S. A. Bouldin A. D. Lynch TAKE Either A sweeping invitation well-disposed, since more who respects knows how to live have either one of the thing else in the house, for the promise to pay. NO REFEE 4. As being unable to maintain proper discipline and decorum in the hallways and assembly hall of the school. 5. As admitting he could not control pupils if they were allowed in the street and body of the school, fact that this outdoor recess is common in the schools in Baltimore and Washington, and doubles everywhere else.) 6. As being the cause in part why strong teachers including Dwight Holmes, James Holmes and Dr. Turner have left Baltimore for places elsewhere. (Instances of other teachers who left under similar circumstances will be printed later.) 7. Being the cause why the Parent-Teacher club of the school has not united with the parent body of the other public schools. 8. As responsible for the inefficiency of the High School Parent-Teacher Club which collected last year dues from only three members amounting to just $1.56. On club meeting dates, some members were absent part of the time singing over a local radio station. 9. As responsible in part for the obstacles in the way of high school debating and mathematics activities, we created large community interest under the direction of Mr. Gough McDaniels. 10. As responsible for the kind of administration which one year places Mr. McDaniels at school and the next year removes him and places Mr. P. D. G. Pennington in charge. Efficiency The real basis of the efficiency of the principal lays after all in the arrogance of his conceptof in a democratic society, in the ideals he has for his part in the work, in his judgment of the values in dealing with teachers, in his knowledge of the values in his supervising, in his good common sense and practical ability in his dealings with his supervisors, situations and people, in his ability to impart to others his own high ideas. As the Superintendent gives tone and character to the whole school system so the principal gives tone and character to the school under control. The Remedy The principal must have such qualities as knowledge, skill, insight, since the ideals and students of achievements are determined by them. If the principal is weak and inefficient there can be no strong school. The grand procession to Supervisor Wood's office against the receipt late rule, the recent razzing of "Dr. Hawkins, excuse me Master Hawkins, the fine financial report made in the Parent-Teacher Club one hundred and fifty cents, are some of the things that determine the remedy—the voluntary or involuntary resignation on Mr. Hawkins. The Program Since these articles have started, a new role was promulgated on high school examinations. Mr. Hawkins has joined the Likes, and the High School clocks have stopped again—in due course, these items will be reached. SHILOH PASTOR BACKS WHITE FOR COUNCIL SHILOH PASTOR BACKS WHITE FOR COUNCIL DR. JAMES A. WHITE MAKES FORMAL BOW Endorsement Of Medical Ass sociation Head Also Given Prominent Dentist A. B. The Councilman right received more impetus this week, as a result of the formal announcement of Dr. James A. White that he was a candidate for a seat in the City Council. He will contender in the race next spring. More Endorsement Given Dr. White Close upon the heels of the endorsement given Dr. White by a candidate for the Moses hall recently came the endorsement of Key, W. W. Allen, pastor of Shiloh Baptist Church, speaking from his pulpit to a large crowd of his congregation. Sunday, Rev. Allen said, we have in our auditorium a large number of the city who is going to run for a seat in the City Council. I do not say this because he is a member of this church and has given us his unstated support. He is capable of holding the job he is assigned to help him, and I want every member of this church to work for his election. He has not left us because he has risen to a height of prominence. We should not leave him. We want to know him that we are going to stand by him. Rev. Allen is pastor of one of the largest and most beautiful churches in the city, and is President of the Maryland Baptist Convention. The endorsement of Dr. White by Rev. Mr. Allen will mean much to the prospective candidate in view of the large following Rev. Mr. Allen has. Another man of prominence who will be a guest hour candidate this week, was Dr. I. C. Stewart, one of the leading physicians of the city who is President of the Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Association. Dr. White Pledges Efficient Work In an interview given out Tuesday, that after careful consideration of what his friends zero doing he had decided to run. He declared that in the event L.A. he is elected his friends may expect a progressive or a bigger and better Baltimore. Dr. Butler At Morgan Dr. E. H. Butler, the Representative of the Board of Education, in the department of Epworth League, of the M. E. Church, was Chapel speaker at Morgan College, on Wednesday, January 26th, and guest of Rev. A. J. Mitchell. Howdy, Folks! The other day an avidor in Illinois crashed, through the roof of a hothouse. Probably looking for that well-known bed of roses. Since the knocking down of lamp posts has become such a popular fad in this city, we suggest that the city build unstationary lamp posts so that they be knocked down easily. You know, construct 'em on the order of a "ten pin" so that they will not break when they are knocked over, or damage the vehicle running into it. Later on, they might make a game out of it. We are sure that would be interesting. Glen & Jenkins are still working for the "Railroad." It's about time the railroad was put to work. Long, folk. We will be back on the air again next week. Not much doing this week. AMOS HOKUM An English explorer describes a country where the women carry off them, marry them, and keep them in subjugation until they get tired of them. Hon these English love to make fun of America! White Republican Leaders Want Race Man, Jew and Gentile On Slate CANDIDATES MAY HOLD PRIMARY PARLEY Men See No Hope Of Avoiding Primary Fight In Councilmanic Election That republican organization leaders will work to bring about the nomination of a Gentile, a Jew and a Race candidate in the coming councilmanic fight sifted through reliable sources this week. Although no one would take the responsibility for fathering this proposition, it was admitted by George W. Cameron, of the City republican committee, that it had been favorably discussed for some time. The question as to the final lead up in the aldermanic fight in the Fourth District has been giving party leaders much concern. What they are capable of candidates, who it is thrown their hats in the ring, has caused many sleepless nights. Already, besides any white aspirants which any show up, there are others. They are, Warner, M. Gumm, W. L. Fitzgerald, J. Howard Payne, Marse, S. Calaway, Walter W. Emerson and Dr. James A. White. So far, all of these prospective candidates. That any effort to have any of them get out of the race before the primary will be fruitless was shown this week, when all of them practically told the APRO-AMERI that they were in the fight. With this condition, it is evident that whatever plans for the elimination of the candidates the leaders may work out, a primary fight cannot be avoided. The fact also that the white leaders in the party are credited with having virtually all the votes with which they ticketed of two whites and one colored candidate, also seriously complicates the matter.
