The ashes are piled up near the tracks where locomotives which have made long trips are dumped before they are refired. The enclosure in the yard to cool off before they are again dispatched.

C. — The legal battle to prevent colored persons residences in the Bloomingdale's district was intensified last week when a suit was filed in the District Supreme Court to compel Henry A.

Collectively, It Means The Endowment Of Howard University. Page Two DR. MOR Howard Univ. The Interest Manifest mines Real Place I Means Little. Colle Howard University HOWARD, DEAR OLD HOWARD By Alumnus The ONE DOLLAR campaign for endowing Howard University will be three weeks old with this issue of the AFRO-AMERICAN. Whether the showing to date is credible is a matter for the ruler to decide. The result, however, in June will be prophetic because achievement the endowment of Howard University by Negroes is by no means a hopeless unrestarting. Just as soon as the race of this project resembles the masses, the endowment is assured. It is very necessary that all readers of these articles carry the message to others in order to encourage subscribers to make possible. Inspire Confidence Frequently, in such a campaign, many wait to see whose names appear before sending theirs. Many watch for written evidence of policy. Many regard certain names ought to precede theirs to inspire confidence. No doubt, many new students, the names of former professors, the names of former Howard students, names before sending in their contributions. In order that there may not be any apparent lack of interest, it is earnestly hoped that the professors in the several schools of the university will contribute early to the campaign. Because of this is done more细致, the students will follow the lead, for it is hoped that every student enrolled in Howard University will send in ONE DOLLAR as their gift for their institution. No Apology No apology should be made for such an endowment. The movement in on way suggests ingratiude towards the benevolent white friends who have been criticised, to help Negro education. The race will always feel profoundly grateful to those kind-hearted missionaries who gave the initial impetus to Negro education. The race will remain many of those missionaries who believe in making possible elementary, secondary, collegiate, and professional education for the sons and daughters of black men. The present age and the present age are not appreciable others such missionaries. Do Something For Self It has been frankly stated that the degree required for himself. To imitate the rich and might in most of the modern practices ought to lead, by all means, to the support of the racial pride leads to racial support of institutions that are at the basis of racial greatness. The rest manifested by any race in its own education determines, without education, real place. The race that such a race merits. The clamor for equality even in a democracy, presupposes the manifestation of the symptoms of race Professional Education The collegiate and professional education of the Negro in America has become chiefly educational as Howell, Alabama, Morehouse, Lincoln, and the like. Negro colleges and universities are rapid; taking over the education of the Negro youth. The program has been made This means that the colored universities must be properly equipped to function, most successfully, and they must not think that they can reach the goals of the highest achievements by royal roads or aturing short cuts. Howard can become a Harvard graduate, teaching at Harvard, and other opportunities that Hatton enjoys, once the colored people themselves realize the funniest portraits, their own educational achievements, all of which need endowments, no prolonged argument is going to be needed to take OXN DOLLAR nearly from from the institution and wind. This year, it is for Howard University. Stage Favorite Praises Exelento Alliter Harris says Exelento is great!

Cromwell Mrs. George Cook George Cook, Jr. George Cook Your name here is a receipt for one dollar which has been forwarded to the Secretary-Treasurer of Howard University. Most Difficult Problem The most difficult problem of this campaign lies in the means of getting immediate response. The amount requested is so small that it is likely to postpone his contribution. Of course, mere contributions are not especially popular. We all want immediate and tangible returns for expenditures. We are so shrinking dollar are numerous and increasing. If we once stopped to heed our means, thriptic whisperings we might find abundant reasons for not donating. Happily, race consciousness is the Good Angel that guilds our minds right in contributing to vital movements affecting the race. In the light of what ONP DOLLAR has done this donation is negligible. It cannot be a burden to any person. The newspaper boy can give his dollar along with the rest of his. Similarly, the dollar means the endowment of Howard University. No Attempt To Cajole No attempt is going to be made in these articles to shine or to cajole people into giving up or to LLD the greatness of the slender contribution, with an accompanying appeal that ought to open the wallets of the colored people. The proposition is reasonable. The presumption is accomplishment is possible. The campaign is a test of the colored people's ability to team up with one another in defense of their dignity. If they fall down in such an easy test, mighty will be the downfall. If they acquit themselves likeother races, they will win the kind of recognition which they Needs Encouragement Every Negro university needs encouragement and funds. Howard has been fortunate to receive a two voices — one in the House and two voices — one in the House and the other in the Senate — can speak Howard's disaster in the twinnings of the House makes an annual practice raising one of these voices. No matter how sympathetic the other voices may be, if a point of order is made on the Howard appropriations, out of the bill they have to go. If an echoing voice is raised in the Senate, Howard University is without federal aid for the year. D. C. TEACHER IS SUSPENDED Miss Adelina G.

Sole Salvation The colored people as a race do not know how close to death Howard University is over; year. The Senate has been the sole source of approval for the Senate is thing somewhat of the annual fight to save the appropriations. While the colored people are dancing, motoring, and tending, their largest university is hovering yearly between life and death. The arguments may be many and strong for the continuance of federal appropriations fit to fight the appropriations, he can just about close the doors of Howard University. This is a situation where most people are most colored people, however, do not realize this situation. They think that the government is obligated legally to approve and seize error. This is a difficult one. Raise Point Yearly For years the feeling was prevalent that Congress would never disband the joint effort to maintain the feeling was enjoyable. On Cleveland's administration, a point of order was made on the award board of the House. Not until Wilson's administration was another point raised. Since Wilson's day, a point of order was clearly and sustained in the House. It is about time for the colored people to pause long enough to give it their duty, if they ever had a duty. White philanthropy is not likely to empower downsizing. It may be now and then, various departments may receive financial help, but the endowment of the university is the problem of the colored people them- Type Of Education When a Congressman from Kentucky fought the point of order during the Wilson administration, he stated, "We are not afraid of the Negro, and frankly. He said that he did not believe in that type of education for the black man, and he did not believe in that type of education for the Negro, he would vote against it; but since the university existed, he would not do anything to destroy it, nor would not speak for Kentucky alone. He echoed the philosophy of the Nordic. The mediaeval dictum of "so far and no further" for the Negro was not spoken for Kentucky unthinkably the dominant Nordic philosophy relative to the black man of today. He colored people really value their own education and are genuinely eager to place their largest burden on the black man, sudden catastrophe, they will make out a check or money order for just ONE DOLLAR for Howard University or AFRO AMERICUS. Howard serves thousands of Negroes yearly. It ought to be endowed by the colored people, but more than one-twelfth of the Negro population will turn the trick. Send in ONE DOLLAR now making it payable to Howard University, but sent to the AFRO-AMERICAN. Remember, no deductions. Every cent for the Howard Endowment. Look for your name. D. C.

NEW YORK NUMBERS KING HANDLED $5,000,000 A YEAR Saturday, Mar, 19, 1927 NEW ORLEANS SEGREGATION CASE REVERSED Louisville Case Held As Basis Of Decision By Supreme Court TWO STATE LAWS AND CITY ORDIANACES VOID N. A. A. C. P. Wins Fight Against Segregation On Account Of Color Another blow to racial segregation in a series of similar decisions, was struck Monday when the Supdeme Court ruled unconstitutional the New Orleans ordinances barring race residents from a block where a majority were white and which reversed the decision of the Louisiana State Supreme Court. By Louis R. Lautler The decision which was handed down by Justice Taft, merely cited its 1917 opinion, in the case of Buchanan vs. Warley, decreeing the ordinances unconstitutional a n d closes the matter so far as that trusteeship was involved. The case came before the United States Supreme Court on a writ of error from the Louisiana Supreme Court, which reaffirmed a previous decision that the New Orleans segregation law did not violate the fourth amendment of the Federal Constitution. The action was begun in the civil district court in New Orleans. Joseph W. Tylier, white, filed a petition for an injunction resting Benjamin Franklin from the No. 232 Audubon street, which Mr. Harmon owned, to colored tenants as a residence. Mr. Tylier cited the ordinance of the city of New Orleans which required him to secure the written consent of the white per- Mr. Herman raised the Federal question that the ordinance is unconstitutional because it violates the Fourteenth Amendment of the Federal Constitution in that it deprives him of his property without due process of law by attempting to deprive him of the right to a constitutionally qualified person in the sole ground of race or color. Judge Hugh C. Cage declared the ordinance unconstitutional. Mr. Tyler appealed to the Louisiana Supreme Court. The judgment of the lower court was reversed and held that the ordinance did not violate the Fourteenth amendment of the Federal Constitution and remanded the case to the lower court for a rehearing. A preliminary injunction was issued in the lower court in conformity with the decision of the Louisiana Supreme Court. After a rehearing was denied him, the Louisiana Supreme Court allowed a writ of order by the United States Supreme Court. This case is controlled by the decision of the United States Supreme Court in the Louisville segregation case. Loye Charbarnet, attorney for the farmer, contended in his punishment for the oppressed in *In that case the Supreme Court held that "a city ordinance which forbids colored persons to occupy houses in blocks where the greater number houses are occupied by the persons, in practical circumstances, such blocks to colored persons and is unconstitutional." Francis P. Burins, city attorney of New Orleans, who was allowed by the court as an amicus curiae, and W. W. Wright, his lawyer, argued that this case is not controlled by the decision in the Louisville segregation case but is governed by that in the case of Pleasey. Ferguson. The Supreme Court held that an provision of a statute of Louisiana requiring railway companies carrying passengers to provide in their coaches equal but separate accommodations for the white and colored races did not run counter to the laws of the fourteenth amendment. Mr. Justice McReynolds repeatedly asked counsel for Mr. Tyler to distinguish between the Louisville case and the one they were arguing. Their replies were in effect that the Louisville in effect colored person could occupy a block in which the majority of persons were white, but under the New Orleans ordinance a colored person could occupy a home in such a block provided he obtained the written consent of a majority of the white people in that block. He asked the Supreme Court to uphold the validity of the New Orleans ordinance to prevent social contact between the races. In closing and asking a reversal of the Louisiana Supreme Court, Mr. Chanah declared that the decision in the case played no role. He was irrelevant. He said: "It is one thing for a white man or a Negro to be told that, in order to avail himself of the accommodations of a public carrier, or to obtain the position, a white man or the state, he must disclose by the rules and regulations of the carrier or of the State, provided that the rules and regulations apply equally to both of them. The property in one of these cases is that of another. "It is an entirely different matter, however, when the states or a municipality tries to interfere with a property right of a white man or of a Negro, such as the right to own, use and dispose of real estate, or the sole ground of race or color, of a white man or the Negro, as the case may be is attempted to be deprived of a constitutional right guaranteed to him by the fourteenth amendment of the Constitution. In the brief with Attorney Charbonneau, the brief with Attorney Frank B. Smith of New Orleans, The bringing of the case to the United States Supreme Court was fostered by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.

War Veterans In Fight Battle Industrial Art Work Aids In Class, Me By WALTER L. REEVES, Jr. Veterans In U ight Battle For Art Work Aids Patie In Class, Mess Or War Veterans In U. S.

It has been almost a decade since the Black Devils of the 369th Infantry Regiment 371st, 372nd and others ploughed thru the muddy fields of France into the Verdun section to uphold the cry for Democracy, and at Walter Reed and Mount Alto, United States Veterans hospital in this city some evidence of that great struggle is yet a reality. Few people ever think of those men who went abound during the war and came back. They never think to ask whether or not the wounds inflicted on battlefields of France would leave them invalides to have the book and that was all. In Washington there are 125,000 colored people and thousands of this number pass Walter Reed and Mount Alto daily, but they never think to stop in and see what the nearly 300 nerve-racked, shell shocked and less seriously injured soldiers, the last of a great struggle are doing, the other men are shut up for life and others will probably get out some day. Well Treated At Walter Reed some 100 soldiers are being treated to restore their health. No expense of effort is spared to bring them back to their formal health. Thousands who have been in the institution since the 1950s have been treated. What was once a derelict, torn shell shock shock is restored to manhood and returned to his place in the affairs of the public life. To make life more enjoyable for the men concerned, hospitals has prepared a number of workshops for the practice of occupational therapy. The object of this is to arouse interest, courage and confidence on the part of the patient. Through such methods it is possible to co-ordinate the mind and the body toward a more normal state. The men also do in-depth work. Lt. Clark, of the staff at Walter Reed hospital said that no distinction of class was kept as a record and that it was impossible for them to give an accurate number of the colored soldiers in the hospital. He said further that there were 925 men in the various wards on last Friday, and 1000 men listed as colored are found to be white in some instances and the same case holds true for the white listed. He stated further that such arrangement of men in the Veterans hospitals should be of unusual interest to the colored people because no separation is made in the registration on the in the press briefings of the United States Veteran's Hospitals. 30 Stitches In Human Patch GOLDSBORO, N.

He had been driven to use it because of the close watch kept by detectives on buildings in the Negro section of Harlem. It was apparent to McNamee that he had stumbled in a portable headquarters at a Harlem lottery, Bedell and Mercer and seized the slips and ledger. These were turned over to Emanuel Kline, detective, who fought in France with Col. Hayward's black regiment and is a deacon in a Harlem Baptist Church. He has spent his life in the his fellow settlement and has been a policeman for six years, is the department policy expert. Big Business Shown He testified that the ledger showed that more than $15,000 had been collected by Bedell's crew from small storefronts and other businesses. Nov. 17. The storekeepers were supplied every morning with skips by Bedell's runners. During the day prior to the publication of the Clearing House statement in the Wall Street edition of the afternoon papers the ship bought the skips in the system of selection of lights in the figures of the bank clearances the winning numbers were determined. The collectors then went out to the storekeepers, collected the money taken in and paid off the winners. If any. Kline testified that Nail was acting as Bedell's secretary and accountant, was also a collector and the ledger showed that he had turned in $85 on Nov. 17. The ledger also showed that the policy players had bank hard on Nov. 16, winning $12.43 more than they had paid in. Kline said the policy game was the most ruinous influence among the Harlem colored folk, a prize paid for the penny innier for $600 for every dollar. These odds tempted the credulous to put from $5,000,000 to $6,000,000 a year into Bedell's pool alone. H. U.

C Page Four BORNO BARS SENATOR KING FROM HAYTI Hatian Head Didn't Want Statesman To Investigate Local Conditions KING SAYS BORNO IS FIGURE HEAD Hatian People Have No Government Of Their Own He Says Classifying him as an undesirable, President Louis Borno, of Haiti slammed the doors of the Haitian Republic in the face of United States Senator William H. King, of Utah, in a cablegram to the State Department, Saturday. This cablegram which was read to a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN by Hannibal Price, the Haitian minister in Washington, clashed Senator Kate as agent of the State Department in Haitian affairs and stated emphatically that access to the territory of the Republic would be forbidden him. Although thought to be inspired by the historical event, this is the first time in history that a United States Senator has been forbidden admission to a free country and the situation is said to be all the more remunerated because Haiti is now unauthorized occupation. WAS BORNO CRITIC Senator King, who has won a reputation for first hand study of the government, has also said to him incarnated the will of the Borno regime, when he called that diffinutely a figure head and inserted Russell of the United States Martines was the real ruler of the Republic. According to a statement made to the AFHO-AMERICAN by Minister of Foreign Affairs, the leader of the Borno opposition in Haiti that he would visit Haiti to investigate the leadership of Percival Thorby, known that in a recent election there was considerable political trouble and it is thought that President Borno regarded King's visit as a sign of weakness. At Port Au Prince, it is said that two delegates of the Union Patriotique and Anti-American and Anti-Borno codes meet for Sonto United States Senator. Several clubs have arranged receptions and dinners in his honor. The senator, Senator King is required to have said. "Haiti is no longer a republic or an independent State, but it is governed by the United States Marine Corps controlled by the United States. "It is time that we should get rid of this pretense. The Haitian people know that they have no government of their own and that they have no such liberty as the military forces of the United States who occupy that country permit them to enjoy. They know that the liberty of the press is limited by the press speech is limited, that their Constitution has been overthrown, that they are governed by a foreign power."

Fire Fighter Gains in Weight SIX CANDIDATES NOW IN FIGHT FOR COUNCIL PRIMARY FIGHT MAY YET BE AVERTED Polls A new angle to the political situation in the Fourth District developed this week, when Robert J. Young, representing the Badger element in the 17th Ward, did as an oldermanic candidate. Young makes the sixth candidate in the field, the others being Walter S. Emerson, S. Emerson, A. White, J. Howard Purne and William L. Fitzgerald. Announcement of the public withdrawal last week of William L. Fitzgerald has not so far materialized. Numerous pleas on the part of friends, according to Mr. Fitzgerald, that he remain in the field have delayed his decision. He states, "That the candidates are letting no grass grow under their feet, however, is indicated in the large number of cases that have played during the week." At a meeting of the Independent Benefit Association, a union of waitinging Walter S. Emerson and William L. Fitzgerald were endorsed as candidates, and M. S. Pollock, secretary of the organization. This endorsement follows one given by the Odd Fellows of the city last week to the The Hall Faction Warner T. McGuinn, Dr. James A. White and Daniel J. Elison, white, were endorsed by the Community House. Wedned in the evening. The leaders in this meeting included Charles Hall, George W. Cameron, Mrs. Adelle Green and E. Cuebler. This slide is also possible have had the endorser of additional 14th Ward organization leader. In a written statement, John W. Badger, John L. Berry, Daniel Richards and Renee Doledeem emphatically by Dr. James A. White, that they demanded $2,000,000 the price of their support. It was rumored that the charges, the City Committee is planning to investigate the matter. The statement of the Badger group denying the charge was as follows: "It was reported in the AFROGAMERICAN of March 13 that Dr. James White had broken badges. Young Anderson ordained on the 17th Ward because he found it impossible to hand over a check for $2,000 demanded of him by them in return for their badges. Young Anderson is likely that no monetary consideration at all was asked or expected of Dr. White in return for our endorsement. We furnish us sufficient evidence that he was able and willing to properly finance his campaign so that we would not be embarrassed in the conduct of our campaign to produce satisfactory evidence of his utility or his intention to adequately provide for the legitimate expenses of his campaign. This and other reasons forced me to withdraw or support him. Mas Avoid Primary Persistent rumors of possible withdrawals has lent colored to the prediction that some leaders may yet take control and effect compromising the compromise. With the definite acceptance of William Broken as mayor on the Republican ticket, it is expected that he will have something to do. Indeed, candidates in the District which he will need it he is successful. It is also rumored that leaders in the Weller and Hill factions are accusing the candidates of fake up, and that a solution which will involve the withdrawing of several of the candidates may be worked out. Sixteen democratic candidates have filed in the Fourth District.

Can anything be more exciting than the prospect of seeing the making of a great newspaper, or good hospital-wards, operating room and everything? Suppose an operation will be going on during our visit! Gue, Mrs. Wilson, superintendent of nurses, after greeting us most once, insisted this case and that, and told us so many things about a hospital that we never knew before. Then there was even the finest little operation in progress. Our disappointment was somewhat appressed as we knew how the instruments were sterilized and how each instrument was used. Our imagination lent reality to the subintendent's description to such an extent that many of us felt that we had really observed an actual operation. After visiting both parts of the rooms and were told about nurses and nursing. Thanking Mrs. Wilson we left for lunch. We went from lunch to the AFKO AMERICAN BUILING, where Mr. Jones escorted us to the detail of the workings of the entire plant. He first allowed us the ducks to which different items of news are received, now illustrations that show the inotype machines work, how the first copies of the paper are made and transferred to the metal cylinders, for the inotype machines work, how the finished product is turned out and distributed to the many thousands of agencies that re The large press in the office of the APKO is certainly a wonderful piece of correct size, folds, counts and sends out the papers in regular numbers. I think APKO makes a great aid of starting out $2,900 papers in an hour. After we had been told about the business side of the paper industry, we met the other APKO employees, and turned our faces homeward—tired out happy and oh, so soon better informed about the APKO hospital and the APKO-AMERICAN.

LOUIS, MO.—Mrs. Anna Malone, founder and owner of Poro College with its $750,000 plant and its 78,000 agents all over the world, is confident she will defeat her husband's plan to place a permanent white receiver over the business. Temporary receiver, Conrad Paeben, a white man of the Southern variety, is now in charge of Poro appointed by the court which will decide March 15th, as to whether the receiver is to be made perman- Historic Punche in charge of the million dollar business, which is not as decent, and never has been misinformed, is one of the things which indicates that politics may play a part in the suit of Malone against his wife for divorce on the "popular" charge of "curiosity" on his claim for bail out, of the institution which he built up, and his suit for responsibility so that she may not curtail her business until the case is settled. First Case Of Kind Lawyers skilled in the law of Missouri, and experienced in court procedure for the past fifty years, declare that there has been nothing like this receivership suit in the history of the state before. One while haired an insurer told the AFA that this suit this case, he 'have declared it impossible for any Missouri court to place a receiver in a solvent, going concern has told College, without a hearing, doing wheel, the owner of the concern would have a chance to state her side of the case. Mrs. Malone will at College. Mrs. Malone will keeps her home in the College. The receiver has to consult her, because he does not know anything about this type of business. She, however, avoids him whenever possible. Mrs. Malone is confident of winning her case, which will cost the receiver and, by laying a counterfeit a divorce from her wife, husband. Don't Show Strain Doctors. She does not show the strain of the past few weeks, which must have been tremendous. Letters and flowers have come to her from all over the world. Indications are that unless the case is serious by her, these startling episodes involving Malone and her activities in many cities. Disclosures Not only will these disclosures involve persons in distant sections, but evidence is being built up around alleged actions of Mr. Malone in some cases who were accustomed to thinking of him as a high chairman, and successful business man. Mrs. Malone does not discuss the case except to say that she is confident. God will not permit the intention He let her build be torn down. Malone And Brewer I met Mr. Malone standing outside a barbershop a block below the college this week. He was wearing a brown Brower, whom St. Louis says took a trip to Cuba with him some time since on tickets purchased originally for Mr. and Mrs. Malone. Brower once accompanied Malone to St. Louis. Mr. Malone gave her husband the tickets, because it looked better in public for the husband to handle the transportation end. Then St. Louis says Mr. Malone took Brower on his wife's ticket. **Counting To Brower.** The count to Brower was March 21st. Mr. Malone told the APO. "A permanent receiver will be appointed then, and I will come East to Baltimore on a vacation. The divorce is over, and the Pore is four or more" he declared, "because the docket is crowded." Mr. Malone is not making his home in the College. He wore a fur collared overcoat despite the sulpy sunshine, but the rest of his glove estimate the Pore gandy of other days.

Hayden, the thirty-three year old Negro house-cleaner whose landscape paintings recently brought him the Harmon Foundation's first award in sailled for Europe today on the Framed. An anonymous donor, whose attention was attracted to Hayden's sketches at the time he received $400 of the William E. Harmon Awards for Distinguished Achievement Among Negroes, is financing a making possible for him to spend two years there studying art. Although Hayden has known of this donation for nearly a month, he continued to work at his usual occupation of scrubbing floors and cleaning the house. The hour of his departure today, he sailed in a third class cabin. When he received the $400 from the Harmon Foundation, he immediately made plans for a trip abroad. "I know it was not enough to enable me to stay there for study very early," he said. "I never get that much money together all at once again. I was able to bring it up to a little more than $500 by borrowing on my bonus check. Now that I have this gift, I will be able to spend some time an art school or later with art centers of Italy, Spain, England and Germany." Twelve Awards Hayden was one of the twelve Negroes to receive recognition from the Harmon Foundation in December, awards for exceptional achievement in the arts, science, business and religion. Persons prominent in the several fields judged the entries and awards were only made where work compared favorably with the best. Negro work is better than with the best Negro work.

In A. Schomburg, of Brooklyn, who won the second award in Education of $100, is applying this sum toward the publication of a bibliography of books by Negroes; and, in another award, of $100, who received the second award in Business of $100, has made this the nucleus of an annual scholarship award to Negro boys and girls in the Des Moines high school.

He resented the abuse and when Mullins advanced upon him, pulled his gun and shot twice. Axe Murder Preacher Sought South Bend, Ind.—William Robertson, local preacher, is being sought charged with the double murder of Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Ross, who were brutally murdered in their home here Sunday.

And there have more involved than the three-cornered fight that is now raging between William Hale Thompson, former Republican mayor, Mayor William Dever, the democrat incumbent, and John Koehler, who is running as an independent candidate. Bone Of Contention From the very first, the race issue has cropped up as a bone of contention and as a result of the large colored vote given "Big Bill" Thompson in the February primaries in the "black belt" and snowed his opponent, E. Litsinger, under an avalanche of votes unparalleled in Chicago politics. Litsinger had the backing of Edward Wright, powerful political boots while E. Thompson by Wright, Chandler Owen, former editor of the Messenger Magazine. Despite this, Thompson carried the city by 180,000 votes. As a result of this landslide, a charge was printed in the Chicago Herald and Examiner stating that Thompson was backed by the Negro underworld and gunmen of the Statement Resented This statement has been vigorously resented by colored leaders and meetings are being held over the office. While Thompson backers are parading thru the "black belt" proclaiming him as the Nergoss "belt" challenging him as others and others charging his office and his membership extends only via dyes and gummen. Stage Raids A further complication of this intense political situation has been provided by the police department which has raided in the second and third wards where the bulk of the colored people reside. Hundreds of colored people have been arrested in these raids and the department is being branded by Thompson and his friends as an effort to intimidate the colored voters. So high-handed have the actions of the people become that Aldermen Anderson and Jackson, the colored incumbents who were returned to office in the landslide which gave Thompson the nomination, have carried the fight against the Governor Small and the City Council. Hourly the battle becomes more serious and acute and many predict bloodshed before the general election. April 5th. Aldermen Charged In charges and counter-charges which are being made by the factions involved especially are Aldermen Anderson and Jackson the brunt of invectives being made by the "silk stocking" element votes in the district. It is alleged that working for Thompson in order to have control of the underworld and get political spoils which will give them from. Chandler Owen, former editor of the Messenger is also being charged by one group as being the "Judas Iscarlot" who is trying to lead the colored voters from their best friend, "Harry Thompson." Southern Tactics The voters of the second and third wards say that tactics being used against so-called saloon keepers of the "black belt" are similar to those used in Mississippi and Georgia. The meantime the struggle between Thompson, Dever and Robertson becomes more and more intense and all kinds of overtures are being made to the Negro press to help carry out the tone to these resentful candidates. Thompson has promised that if elected mayor, he will severely punish the police department for what is termed the political activities and high-handed manner in which are making use of the colored section. To his colored constituents, he is saving. "I don't want you to commit any overt act that will make it hard for me. I want youto make another record for patience, but you are taking action for innocent people who went into jail, take the police officer who commits the overt act. I want those, numbers." T. E.

ARKANSAS HOT SPRINGS LURE MANY TOURISTS Harry Wills, Maggie Walker, Dr. W. A. C.

The Knights of Pythias and the American Woodmen have the largest hotels here for colored folk their bath houses and hotels combined casting well over a half million dollars each. Smaller hotels and rooming houses look after the surplus visitors who cannot find accommodation in The guest list of the big hotels shows people from all sections of the country. For example, there are here today. Mr. and Mrs. Hills of Yonkers, Mr. and Mrs. Wiley of New York, and Mrs. Browne of Atlanta, Bert Roddy of Memphis, Mrs. Maggie Walker of Richmond, Va., Dr. W. A. C. Hughes of Philadelphia. Just before I came a special train carried back home W. G. Pearson and a number of Colonial Mutual Groups in Durham, N.H. There are natural hot springs in Virginia, Idaho and New Mexico, but none as well known as these here due to the fact that the government has made the springs here a national fire hazard to all, and not the property of private organizations. All along Central avenue, the main street of this town of 20,000 are fountains which gush for free and are all tall. One of the first things every visitor secures is a pocket drinking cup, and after he gos his hot water and vapor bath, he drinks from the street of the day in walking the streets drinking from the hot springs selecting those which have in them ingredients of iron, or sulphur, or arsenic, depending upon the weather. Here are the fame, halt, the nervous, the neurotic, the rheumatic, and those who are just plain tired, and their mania seems to be to get on inside of as much water as possible.

March—The National officers of the Boy Scouts of America have recently arranged for Stanley H. Harris of Chattanooga, Ga., to extend the work of the boy scouts among the colored boys of the country. Mr. Harris has been prominently associated with the Boy Scout movement since its organization, service, and publication before the National Council Boy Scouts of America was organized, and he is interested in developing this work among Negro boys. At present, according to him, the Boy Scouts among Negro boys in this country, but with the exception of 18 they are all in the North. If this work is extended to the boys of the South it will have to be largely through the influence of teachers, in the national leaders of the National organization. Believing in the value of this work, Hampton Institute has arranged for a course in Scoutmastership in the first term of the Summer School, to be taught by George P. Phenix, director of the summer school, stated that he would himself conduct the course, and he will be assisted for about one-third of the time by Charles F.

J.—With parents stubbornly refusing to send their children to the poorly constructed Jim-crow church-school which Edgar F. Nick, white sup- serving principal of the public school at Toms River, set aside for them, the affair seems headed toward the court for a public airing of national importance. a At the beginning of the new Fort Knox colored children attended a new modern and well equipped school building which whites attend. On this date, Fnick who is said to have hallied from Texas, bundled the 25 children into a bus and carried them to Dover township which adjoins Dover township. On that occasion one speaker denounced Catholics altho he did not denounce Negroes or a school house for them. Immediately there were protests and when effort was made they re-admitted to the new school building the parents kept them out of school. Ku Klux Suspected Many of the leaders fighting the Jim crow move suspect the Ku Klux Klan as its investigator.

On this date, Fnick who is said to have hallied from Texas, bundled the 25 children into a bus and carried them to Dover township which adjoins Dover township. On that occasion one speaker denounced Catholics altho he did not denounce Negroes or a school house for them. In its telegram to Governor Moore, the American Civil Liberty Union had the following to say: "The supervising principal of Toms River school is reported as serving educational opportunities to Negroes by segregating them in a makeshift school building and as suggesting a Texas Court Action To meet this move on the part of the parents, the school board thrus its truant officer had the parents summoned to court to respond to a rule to show evidence to be dealt D. Voeckel told Judge Harry E. Newman who was presiding, that the colored children had not been discriminated against and had not been segregated because of their color but because many of them were abogé to the average age of the children. They were instructed and that the board felt an opportunity class would be better for the colored children. This explanation was vigorously denied by Eugene R. Hayne, an Attorney Park attorney and several colored children. These cards showed a high average of intelligence and good behavior. Following this spirited argument, Judge Newman set March 23rd the day when he would give the final consideration in the courts. Would Oust Flack The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the American Civil Liberty Union have wired Governor A. Harry Moore, of New Jersey, demanding that Finke be curbed in his policy of segregation. A. C. P. telegram not only demanded the removal of Finke but calls the governor's attention to the decision of the United States' Supreme Court in the Texas white primary case as rebuking the Jim crow spirit in the state which Finke took as his model. In a New Jersey morning paper, Finke is quoted as saying: "I have just come back from a trip to Texas and believe me, they know how to treat the colored down there. I kept my eyes open and learned how to fight. Why? If these people had done in Texas what they have done up here or in any other Southern state they would have been lynched. They would have gone to whatever school the whites told them to would be glad to learn of theance. "The board of education has the power to pick the school which pupils shall attend. It is not up to the pupils or their parents. am surely not going to agree to let the pupils attend the big school and I know the whole board feels the same way."

And Civil Au Rux suspected Many of the leaders flaming the jim crow movement the Ku Klux Klan as its instigator. It has been charged that Charles A.

Recently, in tull regalia and mask the Klan presented an American flag to the new school in Berkley township which adjoins Dover township. On that occasion one speaker denounced Catholics altho he did not denounce Negroes or Jews.

Page Five SHUN POLITICAL LEADERS SAYS DARROW Like Broken Steers They Lead You Like Cattle To Slaughter URGES EQUALITY OF OPPORTUNITY Speaker Tells Monster Crowd Caste System Cannot Exist Forever WASHINGTON, D. C. Speaking before a record crowd which filled Metropolitan A. M. E. Church to capacity and overflowed John Wesley A. M. E. Zion, Clarence Darrow, noted criminal lawyer and champion of human liberty, told his hearers to shun job getting politicians like a pestilence and that the caste system in this country could not exist forever. The meeting, which was under the auspices of the N. A. A. C. P., attracted unusual attention, Darrow just having returned from where the Ku Klux Klan is said to have opposed speeches he made there. The church was crowded to capacity. Not even standing room was available an hour before the meeting began, but soon gained admission. Finally the thousands on the outside were told to go to the John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, and Mr. Wesley would address them afterwards. The John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church was filled to capacity. Charles Edgar Church, co-occupied Mr. Darrow to the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, and Bishop E. D. W. Jones of the A. M. E. Zion Church, sent to John Wesley and addressed the crowd while they were waiting for Mr. Sweet Defendant Captain William L. Davis, who was one of the defendants in the Sweet murder trial in Detroit, Mich., was introduced by Neval H. Thomson, president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, He and Mr. Darrow, who represented the defendants in that case, were loudly applauded as they greeted each other. Do you not know that I need talk to you about what you have suffered. You know it better than I do. I know you have never had an equal show anywhere in the United States excepting in war. I know you have never felt like you were. I know that colored men in every state in the Union are convicted where white men under the same circumstances would go free. I have defended a good many of the crimes in the courts and a great many times when there never was any evidence against you except the color of your face. I know the penitentiaries and jails of this country have four or five times as many colored people as white men have in proportion to their numbers. "Now, what can the colored people do? Of course, there is no chance for physical resistance. There are not enough of you. You are too weak, too poor, too stupid, too independent of what preachers call your soul, but not knowing anything about the soul, I will say, independent feeling. You ought to keep your pride even if you have to take tips now and again. There are not a great many things where a colored man has any advantage. He has been abused, slandered and lied about in every way. They say they do not dare trust your men. I notice that they are always in the Pullman cars, which is passing strange to me. They trust their children with me. When I ask them how they love the colored people because he had a black mummy, I know he loves them just the same as a for: loves chickens. He loves them in their place. "Gradually the colored people can vote. further and further so that you feel the independence of your votes, keep them guessing; it is the only commodity you have. "I know you have political leaders and they are getting jobs for themselves. You ought to shun them as you would not. You know the stockyards in Chicago they had an old steer that had been broken in to lead the cattle to smother. That is what the politiclaws do. It is a scurvy trade to make money, nobody who has the good of your people at heart who would not say you ought to be absolutely independent in politics and make the most out of it. "You have to by your patience, you industry, your courage. Gradually I think you will get your recognition."

Private Parties Unexcelled Service Trained Attendants OPEN 8 P. M. UNTIL BICYCLE T ONE YE YOUNGER FOLK Katydid And Katydidn't Old Mother Katydid knew the minute that her twins were born that they meant trouble. To begin with they were exactly the same size and their green wings did not vary one tiniest part of an inch in measure. Then daddy added to the already terrible complications by insisting that they be called Katydid and Katydidn't. When these twins were very young, they had also been very good, and Mother Katyydid had acquired the habit of presenting them as examples of what children should and should not do. Of late, how often did Mother Katyydid at last she had found out that Katyydid and Katydid didn't only the things that pleased them. Mother Fly was having so much trouble with Philip that she had to seek someone's advice, so she went to Mrs. Katyid. As you will see, she did not get much satisfaction. "Mrs. Katyid." Mother Fly asked, "did you find that with twins one is very good and the other very bad?" "No," replied Mrs. Katyid. "With my twins what one does the other is "O!" screamed Mother Fly, "Don't tell me that. If Flossie grows up my wings and never move again. Why that boy stays in trouble! One day he is at it, but Flossie, thank the blue sky, at the next time he and Benny Wasp are at it. But Flossie, thank the blue sky, at the next time he and Benny Wasp are at it. Then, you ought to be thankful, Mrs. Katydid said, "for my girls were exactly children to me, not mature and end of trouble." Trouble indeed they were making, for something that included all the Winglets and meant stuff, which one to blame is doubtful, for you see, it happened in this way. In the afternoon, and the sun was gradually working his way westward, Katydid and Katydid didn't were anything which grew in the great murk. Both had chirped for hours in the meadows and returned to marshland, they Said Katydid to Katydidn't, "Sister, I wish something exciting—something real exciting will happen." Katydid said something happened? asked her twin. "What could we do?" questioned Katydid in doubt. "What would you like most to do?" Katydid answered for her brother's guidance with another. "O! Wouldn't it be lovely to have a theatre for Winglets?" he said in his send word to all the young Winglets that we are going to have a show. "O! shrieked the audience!" "Of where and when?" shrieked the enthusiastic Katydid. "The old m肃 shall be the theatre, and one crumb the admission," explained Katyldyn. "I hope the actors."

"And if she is willing enough, Flamor Moth shall be the star dancer, Katyldid still thought the program incomplete, so he said slowly. "We will need more numbers, we will need our own duet and Jimmy Wingles will gift a sing an selection," her twin added. "The only thing left to do then is to take the wrong Wingles. Katyldid spoke slowly for she was selecting her messengers. "O! so many of those Wingles are they are dressed in red, dressed in dusk. They are afraid of the dark." Katyldid plainly voiced her disgust. "I think I can arrange it, she will carry it to the spotlight," suggested the resourceful Katyldid. "Now it is growinglate and we must carry the advertisement of our show far and wide." "Don't tell mother anything about the stage and the messengers to carry the advertisement of our show far and wide." And so it was that the first shades younger Wingles had not returned to their homes. Black night followed, and still there were others who were thoroughly alarmed. Mother Fly swished her wings and circled around her to Philip's mischief and she did not think it strange for him to tarry, but Flosstea was a good friend. She was sure to light it. Yes, she was sure of it, something dreadful had happened. Benny Wasp had no one to look after him, so he would eventually see the nest. It was altogether another matter with grandfather Gant, for he was greatly wary of the thousand and one groundchildren. Anxious parents joined other anxious parents little more than once, while little children looked down their story and said little. Somehow way down under her wing she had a feeling that he was the only person to their story and said little. For the past hour she had heard weird cries rising from the marsh and too a regular and perplexing shore to share with the most unusual for Sparkle to stay still that long. "Come with me," Mother Katyeld finally said to the worried parents. "If Down in the marsh a most wonderful performance, Winglets, forget of high shades and worried parents, were enjoying themselves. Freddo Freddo crook-n-roll, with a voice much to the delight of Philip Fly who kept far enough away not to notice the loudly recovered from her bushes, was whirling and twirling in front of the Gnat chorus while Sparkle Firefly kept the quiet tenor solo might have been good but he insisted on singing too long. Then the twin, Katyald and Katyald, least, had chirping voices and they blended beautifully in this song; They had finished their song and were making their how sound the buzz of the voices, the eyes of their Mother. Lo! as they looked, an army of winglets buzzed on the mother's back, the disorder followed. Some of the young ones were dragged away screeching pants reached them. Katelyn, she twined the twins a much needed and long delayed whipping which they suffered from crumbs of crumbs but apparently away.

He is judged one of the finest of the dogs of his kind, for his intelligence is most unusual. It is said that he can guard a person almost as well as his masters. Then there was the story of Pinky, a cat, but her mistress loved her. She was a week late when she explored. Unfortunately she ventured too far into a small place and got wedged in a wall. Her mistress was greatly disturbed. First she called a policeman, but many such persons, he felt he had too much to do to look after bad people, to say nothing of mischief, and she fused to aid the grueling Pinky. Kitty's mistress by this time was greatly disturbed. She called upon the fire department. One fireman, who was in the store open the wall and restored Pinky to her mistress safe and sound.

O. Woolard of Oriental, N. C., "and I have always found it to be reliable and effective. It certainly comes up to all the good things that are said for it, and I am glad to recommend it.

"I always give Black-Draught to the children for colds (when a laxative is needed). It is fine for that.

To facilitate matters, Mrs. Tibbs' home was used, or two-wife friends participated, and a bridge lamp was the gift of this company. Do you remember Mrs. Jones who lived in the 1500 block of Prescott.

We went to the bridge epidemic has come upon us. Of course, it helps to while away the time and in that, it is a blessing.

He charters a ship and goes on the high seas seeking romance adventure as a background for the story. The old men who head the sailors, pretend that they are in search of real treasure when the ship some distant pot, and get a cargo. The crew hardly knows what to believe but falls for the story of wealth. The girl is willing to believe anything that the young writer loves. Love, mutual and real buccaneering get into the situation by a strange twist of circumstances. The picture reveals in comedy as well as visions of pieces of eight and gold doubloons. The feminine lead Joey Joy Dawn, the wife of Larry Sorman. "On Guard," a military mystery story, will begin a ten weeks' run Monday as the Star's feature serial. The photophy was made with the cooperation of the army and two soldiers in the east. Many of the "shots" were made at Fort Hoyle, 1. Mac Wilson selected a good trade mark for her revue. She has a pleasing aggregation of damsels and the chorus is composed of Brown beauties, on the stage and off. The chorus is performed by a whole company present; an hour of entertainment. There are plenty of good dances, some enjoyable songs and humorous situations. Myrtle Spread, a sparkling little Baltimore lady is the soubette, and leads the chorus in some dances. The song is performed by the family of the Mo-Jay matinee. Miss Wilson plays up to her past record in one song speciality and is the leading figure in the comedy. The show is giving its patrons a taste of soft shoe dancing by Emma Schley, who presented some song numbers and won a Spanish dance with Miss Wilson. The first honors of the performance go to Alice Stevens, a clever blackface comedienne, and "Kid Ransom whis. dances are unimaginable but light and Samuel Stevens laughs funny fellows and they almost stop the show with their suicide act. The straight role is carried by Lonnie Matlock. The chorus has two Baltimore singers and they particularly to the attractiveness of the ensemble, Lillian Smith, Daisy Wilkins, Margaret Wilkins and Lena Matlock are the dancing browns. If we sum up the whole presentation we can call it worthwhile, which you would not care to have old before your mother.

The minute that Azorsky was spotted in Baltimore, everybody looked for a red-hots how, knowing the success that Miller productions made in the past, one of the strongest casts of principals that have ever assembled in one show and presented here is to be found in "Shake, Rattle and Roll." His chorus was away off on Monday, as they had not become familiar with the dance routine or used to working together, but after a few stiff rehearsals, I will be ready to bet my bottom dollar on the bunch. There are several young students known here, Shirley Abbey, Juanita Bell, and one of Bessie Smith's troupe. They are hard workers and dance, and it is just a matter of time when all will be working in union and when this show of theatrical eroches Jones and Jones, late stars of Florence Mills’ “Blackbirds”, are real plots. Hard work is these boys’ forte. All through the show these concessions are drawing laughter in the square with their show. Their droll way working, their sincerity, are shown in the way we find the southern, who is a new arrival in New York, trying to put one over on his partner. They are more than acting; it is every day life. Wesley Hill continues to enact an old man, but later coupled with Hillary Friend, offers a nity song, comedy and dance skit. The old fellow shook a wicked hoof. Hillary has lost none of her past ability. “Honey” Brown a toe dancer par excellence, has more real personality than any actress that I have ever seen in many days. How that girl has her case and graces ourselves with her show. “The Fingers Out of Your Mouth” by “Honey”, was very well done. Viola McCoy has plenty of personality to back a rich, clear voice and audible to all. She's prior to singing "If You Good Man Quits You," and then and there the gang was strong for Viola. Hatch and Hatch are two dancers, the breaker and bar boy no mixed-town, they have been in the past lasting impression and dressed well. Then there is George Haynes and Booby Perry, eccentric dancers. These boys have started the town talking. They are nite dressers in the city, nite dressers that are being seen here every week. They give something different. George takes us back to the days of Williams and Walker with his graceful strum and carrion. The ladies of the ensemble are Shirley Abbey, Junita Bell, Elaine Brunett, Daisy Pizarro, Freda Henderson and Ruth Lambert, singing, peppy clean comedy and supreme dances, get it here this week. REGENT The Fondell Trio, white, jugglers, opened the bill at the Regent with a unique setlist: drawing nice bands for their efforts, while Iron Hand and Annie Armstrong and the Indian is an expert bicycle rider and the maid possesses a nice voice. The act caused plenty of laughter and is full of thrills. At the close of the act the audience finds plenty of merchant in seeing the Indian try to win a prize of $10,000 by riding a very small bicycle. Doyle and Willie, old favorites, in the deuce spot, went over big with a line of songs, comedy and dance. Doyle drew some nice bands for her performance and balanced a lamp on his head. "Baby" Renbali Ali has a nice voice, and unassisted won the gang with her condition of several sentiments, pepity and fast. She put in a few snappy gags that registered well. Battles and Taylor, late of the Columbia Burlesque Circuit, us the two "Collegians", are nifty steppers. The boys use same comedy gags at the show, but the girls laugh more laughter. The boys' voices are not at all bad and as all around sellers they excell. Next week Charles Anderson, the "Yoo Hoo" man and record star, is the stoller actress. The screenwriter will be joining the great production that had a six week's run in the Metropolitan Theatre, breaking all records for a single run in Baltimore, and doing capacity business. Don Jumun" is a tale of love and has just been a reputed player the international famous reputed star, John Barrymore. AT PALACE Ed. Daly presents his mixed revue, "Rarin 'To Go'," at the Palace Theatre, this week, with the colored half on after the intermission. The show runs from 10:30 to 11:00, handling the heavy comedy. The ghost scene laid in the desert and the scotch skirt are clever arrangements. Edith Spencer, late of "Blackbirds" is the only female principal, and is working exceedingly well in the wings well, dresses, and is some stepster. Jimmy Ferguson is the one best bet and a ringer for Hudgins. Under cork the boy rioted, only to return in straight and lose none of his selling power. The gang-up are high for being especially good at a pantomime crap game. Joe Jordon and his "Sharps and Flats" are master musicians, who have been carefully prepared. The chorus is composed of ten fast and likable maidens, and how those girls can dance. "Struttin' Sam" Closes The "Struttin' Sam" Company after a brief tour has returned to Los Angeles and disbanded. Lola Mickey, one of the cast, immediately went to work at the picture studies, several companies using her in bits.

A "business" deal keeping him in Paris, he insists that she should leave George, George gives the ticket to Jean Corat, a playwright. The two, thrown together, grime up a warm friendship. A fortnight later, on George's arrival, he finds them unable to meet, and he is possible for a woman to love two men has broken down, and he is appalled at realizing that a married woman adores him. George gives them his blessing and they are married, however, is ingested with nervousness for Jean is the constant center of admiring females.

The mathematical bootleg and dance show very grazed. From present indications the Shuberts will have the comedians at the head of a new summer show due for a summer run in Chicago.

ARNOLD NASHVILLE—Even though the Lenten season which has a tempestuous theatre attendance in the city seemed to have had but little effect in Miller and Shater's fist song and dance revue, "Dixie Breeties," during their week's run here, writes Arnold. Although this is the company's second appearance here, even the special guest for the revue Thursday night, March 10th, gave a good account of itself and the S. R. O. sign was put on display. Messrs. Miller and Shater have always prided themselves on presenting the public's approval. The theatricalers are becoming tired of woolen production. It's the goon with hair, the goon with the best dazzling gowns, brilliant dancing, intoxicating with laughter and bubbling over with joy, that seems to get their personal attention.

Possibly the most popular of this was a group of Negro sea chanties, sailors in reality songs of Negro sailors. These are entitled "Lucky Anne" and "Santa Anna," which, is said, are being introduced for the annual festival. Another selection of unusual interest was "The Evening Song of the Kru Tribe of West Africa," theme of the song being first sung in the Lai, native of the Kru Tribe and a Columbia University student. It was then sung by the group as transcribed by Eva Jesse, Director of the Dixie Jubilee The Dixie Jubilee Singers are acknowledged peers in their articular field of choral education in many of the lead churches of New York and several times during the past season at the Capitol Theatre, City Center, featured in informal afternoon services in the famous Wannaker Auditorium and of courses, radio fans are acquainted with them through their frequent WEAF of special significance, it is said, is the fact that the Dixie Jubilee Singers are the only group presen- ting Nebraska on stage, a hitherto fold, and also native African artists, melodies extremely difficult in transcription.

MORRIS BROWN GIRL IN 'HELLO DIXIELAND CO.' Actress Uses Dressmaker's Course To Good Advantage In Sewing Actors "Busted" Pants In the spring or 1922 the girls' matron at Morris Brown College, Atlanta, allowed the girls to attend a vaudeville. Going to a show wasn't new for these girls, but Lila McKenney, capable chorus lead of "The Hello Dixieland Company," says that it was quite a change from the Friday night "socials" where boys were forced to move on to another girl after they had talked to one for 15 minutes. Miss McKinney later attended school in Macon and became a proficient seamstress. When Martin and Walker started one of their big time shows in 1925 they managed to urge this school miss into the cast. She couldn't dance so well and her songs were hardly peppy enough for theatres, but time has shown that the winsome Atlanta loss had more than promise; she had talent.

"HARLEM FOLLIES" TO PLAY UNDER TENT Jack Gee, ex-volceman of Philadelphia, and Tessband of Bessie Smith, announces that after doing three or four more of the eastern theatres the show, "Harlem Follies", will close and the company jump to Atlanta, where they will open under canvass. Jack has a tent with a seating capacity of 1,700, and the company travels in their own private Pullman car which was christened the Jack Gee, last season. The car is 72 feet long. There is still room in the show for a boss canvassman and a jazz band. T. O. B. A.

But Stern Business Woman 1301 PENNSYLVANIA AVE., BALTIMORE, MD. Phone Madison 1077 Oliver Pierce, Manager Women, women, beautiful women, we can not get along with them or without them, is it the way the feminine sex, and his words are borne out by the fact that today every show that is springing up, being the professional manager. Over at the Star Theatre last week Mabel McGarr. *Life of Jules*, one of the stars of a professional hotel in Washington, headed her husband's show while he ran the hotel, and what's more Mabel is going to head the company over the entire circle. Miss Mabel is very bashful and hard to get started when it comes to dressing, but after a little coxing and a few leads she told us that this business of managing a show is no duck business, and she was out to prove to her husband and the cock-eyed world that she was one of the few women able to direct the activities of a company Miss McGarr has the first essential of a perfect actress, and that she has been a constant entire time she unfolded her story. In April 1923, Mable dressed up in her pretty little bonnet and gay clothes and strutded down to her home town, to see Drake and Walker. She did not know that Drake could strengthen his chorus and had no idea that she would be chosen as one of the ten selected. In fact when she was approached she was taken to Drake's office and present time is unable to tell why she ever joined a show. She says that in picking type Drake nearly the girls one better and married her. She toured with Drake until she met the Toba "Beau Brunnel" Jules, in Detroit, and joined his show. In August she went the rest of the girls one better and married her. Today Mrs. McGarr says she has been back on a profession that is both profitable and enjoyable, although she gets disgusted at times with the small stages that managers exert upon so present a "Bent Bur" upon.

She is Florence Blake who was born in Baskerville and attended the St. Augustine school, there. Florence explained that she found it quite difficult to study as she she was a girl, and she had side reading stories of successful dancers, she put her time practicing dancing in the dormitory after study days. She followed outdoor sports of all kinds, taking a couple of flings at the pool. Still in her teens, Florence went to New York to lot live. There she met a girl who had contends at the Sawyer Ballroom. Florence admits she owes Atta Blake, King of tap *tat萧塘 dance* capability, which accounts for her selecting Blake as her *好女性 actor*. Because of her love of dancing, she is also a great admirer of the *Bahala Hall and Freddie Washington*.

After years of studying people in and out of th profession Dudley realizes that the public will be quick to say it is purely a Dudley money making scheme, and he is working with the company of the necessity of colored pictures. Mr. Dudley goes on to say that, "all of the big pictures, I mean (white) that are produced by all of the biggest film corporations in the world, and it is a positive fact that big comedies have fallen flat in the Colored Theatres. Don't kid yourself Mr. Manager, you know I speak the truth when I say we need a cent for you, and you Mr. and Mrs. Auduce, you know you don't like them. So, you will have to agree that a good COLORED PICTURE will be a cent for you, and well presented is what you want. So you can see the necessity for COLORED PICTURES. Why not demand them, why not invest in them? How? The writer is not in position to say, but with your help we can and will solve the problem. I may never live to see the door opened but regardless, it must be done to be said that UNCLE DUD gave us this idea for our people to share in a profit-sharing, staple investment in which he had spent years of careful study to provide for the capitalist as well as the actor and graduate of our schools, in life. "We can do all of these things mentioned, if we will j c co-operate. So it becomes your duty to boost COLORED PICTURE"; At some future date, I will be playing a COLORED PICTURE DAY playing a COLORED PICTURE in every theatre in Washington on the same day, but of course, I will have to wait some time as we have not the class of picture we appear to all have in thethemes here, the theatre will come, so boast and demand COLORED PICTURES in Colored Theatres." The Elkins-Layne Singers will present another half hour of spirituals next Tuesday (March 22) at 3:30 p. m., over W. O. R. N. Newark. This organization of fifteen trained voices expresses in their work the rich harm of the Negro possesses. The spirituals, or plantation songs, are the spontaneous outbursts of intense religious fervor and had their origin chiefly in camp meetings, revivals, and other religious exercises. The radio audience will have an opportunity to hear this type of music at its best as sung by the Elkins-Layne Ensemble. It is reported that "In Abraham's Bosom" is in its closing New York performances.

Upon talking with her backstage she gave the impression that she was not expressing herself but the ideals of the producer. "One has to make a living," said so, modestly must be offered. Last week an old lady upon being asked by a group of boys whether she liked jazz music replied, "Oh, yes I like of it, but when them drums *p* horns try to howl at the same time, I don't know whether the orchestra is fighting or having yell practice." "Happy" Holmes, big genial comedian, gives one a hint of what clean work will be done by some apparently indecent actors in the film. When he appeared in the "Black Bottom Revue" some weeks ago, Holmes was the leading player in a strikingly smutty scene. He returned to the Regent last week and carried funny without being republic. Holmes' act was a gloom chaser, and his feature was the singing of the title track. She's A Good Girl, Then Don't Say Nothing At All. It was interesting to see a little girl in a Baltimore theatre last week getting more applause for her work that the mother he was not merely applauded because of her age, but because she was entertaining. Audiences will even applaud images of actors on a screen and little girls are not excited when they put over their bit. A type of comedy which is fairly new in Negro theatre was able and admirably presented to Kaltimoreus last week by Johnny Virgil. Without cock or grease this kind of comedy would hold his audiences with laughter. That type of comedy needs to be encouraged and promoted. S. H. Dudley is building a new show with the same idea, it mind. The only thing regrettable about Virgil was that he ended his show with a skit and cracks which he would possibly be ashamed to tell before his mother. An African Theatre Cleveland, Ohio is one jump ahead of several cities in Negro dramatic art. Last week the city witnessed the opening of Kamaru Theatre, a house built to glorify and perpetuate African art. The new playhouse is decorated with ceremonial African carpets, perforated wooden carvings. The Glipin Players gave the premier performances There is good meat for thought in "Upsage," the motion picture of backstage life of writer and director Nathan Shaw. The picture gets down to the human side of stage people and pictures their weaknesses and problems, and writes about a poem which contains these lines: "If through the Negro Films Many of us are inclined to treat the Negro film as a light and trifling thing, something beaten by the Negro motion picture men have not attained that artistic and scientific skill which is evident in better class white companies. The Negro films are not their productions naturally show their babyhood. Colored Film Players Corporation is now in its first year. Oscar Micheaux in the field less than five years. Despite their infancy these companies have made several pictures which cannot be placed in the lower class of productions. The howl goes up just the same. Resale is not the answer. "They don't make the grade. Some of the actors don't know what it is about." To them we would reply, "Notherd did you when you were child, did you end up with a stampling giant who towers six feet above the ground. The Negro film is shown in the same theatres where the Hollywood was exhibited. Men who have hitherto appeared only on the stage, face the glare of Kleig lights, and are compared with actors who have recried a second generation of film players. "Men" is strongly contrasted with "A Prince of His Races." Evelyn Preer and Laurence Chemaint are glowing bodies in a new sky. Later they will be坐着 a tractor to own and on a boat. Face pictures, we shall eventually have companies who will bring all the artistry of the silver screen to the people who demand it. Discourage them and your most important members of the Hollywood crowd while your actors hold out tins cups on the street corners. Public Awakening A new murmur is being heard in the theatrical circles. Mr. Public is demanding that some, of the vulgarity should be left behind, experiencing the same disapproval that is heard on Broadway. A number of the companies which have appeared recently attempted to offer entertainment when you would not be able to have mother know you patronize. One actress told us Friday: "The people are getting tired of the audity and dances which merely reflect the passions of the entertainment ought to appeal to the clean sentiments, and are ready to appreciate any actor who has the wholesome act and the ability to put it over. The audience is going to sing a song last week that was so filthy that we are ashamed to give the Columbia tr.

Lewd Exposure The best theatre loke of the week comes from Mississippi, and strange to say the joke isn't even funny. The manager. The manager. The music director. Forty-one girls were arrested because the girls were "lewdly exposed" in a theatre at Jackson. There are no records of arrests for lewd exposure of inartistic bodies or murdered for the entertainment of The great wonder of the incident is that one of the joint owners of the theatre caused the arrest. Stage The stage is witnessing many new and interesting changes daily, and the producers and managers are profiting by these changes. The various attractions that have been playing the Columbia Burlesque circuit have been highly rated by both the white and colored critics, and the audience of the season on the wheel, three were colored or had a mixed cast. "Lucky Sambo" was the first to close, but was immediately booked about Lassie Theatre, Chicago, Jimmy Cooper will take his colored cast into the vaudeville and combinations houses for the balance of the season. He, in all like-heed, will continue to please wherever he plays, having never been the talent obtainable including Butter Beans and Sissie and Octavia St.immers. The "Club Alabam" revue is under the management of Lydia Webb, queen of the Charlesbon, who qualified to manage the trick, but has her company so well under hand that it is possible to let the members of the show run it in her absence without any difficulties or slip up. This is due to the confidence, can member of the company, Ms. Webb also to the fact that she is paying each member of the company a good salary. The time has passed when good looking girls put the show over. Today she must not only possess looks, but must be an artist and producers are beginning more and more to realize that fact. They are paying good money and requiring workers on their payrolls. The girls are "Hep" and take it from me, who they step before the lights you can bet your money. They are depending on more than their looks to put them over. Teddye Peters Teddye Peters who spring into the limewalk and light it doing an imitation of an intoxicated man is proud of the fact that she is a Baltimore woman and got her start in Ford's Theatre prior to going to York and bucking Broadway. Times back there, Teddye informs us, was far different from today, for not one coloured actress had been lucky enough to get down town in the metropolis. When Teddye dreamed that she had been using the song "Good Night Little Girl" for "umteen" years, and she really sells it. We were curious as to how she ever picked this role, whereupon she informed us that Teddye dreamed that she was visiting a prominent white pro- Escondido, Cali—Henry MaclHerson, 61 year old paralytic, won the distinction of being the champion gopher trapper when he bagged, 2,000 gorers in 1926.

Father had built up quite a reputation around Baltimore, as a legal light and I was destined to follow his footsteps, but I depicted it. I hated the profession: I hated Howard, but Gwen was in love with him. I was a dear heir; I always wanted to be a song writer, to write, to write tunefolies, just like I was doing when you came in. I had planned it all out. I was to write songs and she was to sing them. She had a marvelous voice. We were to work our way into the music industry. Robert! He had a car—he wore fine clothes—he had a smooth tongue and above all he had a desire to do me a dirty turn. He met Gwen, counted her, swept her off her feet. His car's money—his lies won her! It was commencement day in 2022. That night we met when her people objected to the match. I waited in Union Station from seven until eleven o'clock. I was afraid to leave for fear she might come during my absence. Finally I went back upon the hill.

I searched the adjoining shops and walked as far as 1400 Street she had gone. Once I was first time in four years—since that night. "Your story interests me Kayne, and I suppose your experience has made you like other men who have been disappointed, you like other men who don't believe in true love anymore," laughed Al. "Well, yes and no. Any sensible person would concede that there is some particular selection to be made to the other but I do not believe that any particular selection is arranged by destiny, but wholly by conditions, economic or otherwise. But the one intended for you as not. If you mean, do I believe that any one woman is put on earth to be the mate of any one man, I almost emphatically do not. But, your mother and father lived together for twenty-five years, wasn't that true? "Not necessarily. Marriage is a thing in which two people unified for each other who do not realize it is too late, are joined together and after they get acquainted, they stick it out to avoid the scandal of divorce. They become merely married to one another, and they get acquainted, you give you, prospective brideroom, to agree with me." "No!" replied Al wistfully. Because I know Grace and I were intended for you you believe matches are made in heaven? "Not any more than I believe a business partnership or a song and dance choreography. You believe chance combination that may be a success or many not. If your theory is true and God is just, providing you be a predefined mate be a Chinese or an Indian or a white woman as well as a black woman." No prejudice and other worldly conditions play a greater part in the selection of a wife than heaven does. "What are your views on divorce?" inquired Al lighting another cigarette and crouching further down in his "They should be made as easy to obtain as possible. One pay dollars for each person you want to serve you really want each other then why should you have to pay five or eight dollars for each person you want well you don't! It isn't fair. Why should two people be forced to live together after that magnetism, either spritter or stranger, which drew them when they crossed a desk." NO DRESS EXTREMES SAYS SCHOOL HEAD Miles Connor Declares Public Expects No Extremes in Dress, Thought and Action The public expects the modern instructor to present no extremes in dress, thought or action." declared Miles W. Conner, principal of the Fannie J. Coppin Training School in an address before the Schoolmasters' Club, Saturday night in the Y. M. C. A. auditorium. "The teaching system today has many people in it who are anxious to give only that which is required, some act; even that which is required," declared Miles Connor, principal of the Baltimore Teachers Training School, in address before the Schoolmasters' Club at the "U" School. Keen perception, depth of knowledge and contact with books are vital essentials for the modern teacher, the speaker told the society of schoolmen. The teacher no contacts with even books relied to the profession is astounding. The normal school principal was lavish in his praise of the rural teachers, whose pupils are a majority of those making good. Poor attendance was illustrated with teachers, dedicated education with the Schoolmasters were told that knowledge of children was equally important with knowledge of the subject. George Murphy, principal of Schl. 112 was one of the discussion speakers and he declared that one of the reasons for the lack of public education outside Baltimore city is the pitifully small wage paid to the school teachers.

I know that Grace and shall never tire of each other. Our argument is when I sing songs you write. I wouldn't be surprised if you favored illicit love affairs. "That's just what I am talking about now. I contend that the only illicit love affair is when the partner does not not record with each other. Our modern marriage is the most prevalent form of illicit love that I know. When a man and woman are fed up on each other and are fight in spite of the fact that they are legally married, they are living in adultery." "True love. Leslie, never dies. Why I know men who have killed their wives 25 years and married life when they were married." "That wasn't alone, Al, that was pride. Pride alone kills, you cannot kill a thing you hate, your marriage gives a man over a woman body and soul that leads to murder. Perhaps she is only answering an inquiry law gives a man license to kill with immunity the man who invades the sanctity of his home, when he himself by his actions towards him is guilty of murder. In him, Men exonerate him but God will hold him just as accountable as he would any other murderer." "Kayne: 'Cured Freeman leaping to his wife, but he made him hypocrite and are trying to turn me against love when you know blamed well that it is love for that woman that makes you love her, but you are responsible for your disbelief.'" "Not love, Al, but my hate for her. Lovers believe in everything, even Santa Claus. But when you hate—hate not believe in anything, not even God." "I see now," said Al, struggling into his coat, "why you are so death on marriage, but you'll change some day, and I bet you will be married I am and I am already engaged." "I promised myself that night that I would not practice law or marry the best woman on earth, and I intend to keep both." "We'll see," said Al as he left the apartment and started out into the bright kitchen. A girl, elad only in a very short top, attracted his attention as he reached the landing. She was scanning intently, the names on the register in the vestibule. Strunge place for you, young lady, thought Al as he recalled that all of the apartments in that building were occupied by men.

His Pal, Al Freeman, s With His Argu- age second glance had he not noticed that her finger became stationary at the name of Leslie Kayne. There was a wedding band on that hand. He turtled on the steps until he saw her start slowly on the stilets. She had a thinly veined mouth and was extremely thinly clad for such a night. That jolly old joker, mused Al as he dashed toward the Sub—woman halter? 'Uh! Losie had just laid his faultlessly creased trousers over the back of a chair, slipped into his pajamas and was tightening his bath-robe preparatory to making his final rounds of inspection for the night in his dresser mirror as he passed, with a pleased expression. New York had, not been so cruel to him. He was living in a fine style, had a little money in the bank, above all he was alone. No one to pry into his affairs, that's preferred an apartheid in a boarding-camp. The numbers had turned up for him occasionally and this very week a new revue was using two of his arrangements at the Lafayette. He looked at a souvenir postal card that was stuck in the corner of the mirror in the scene. He looked at one of the monuments. He shwagged his shoulders. "Well old burg, I don't know when I will see you again." He liked the whir of the big city, the heterogeneity of Harlem, the hullabaloo of the taxis, the rattle of the subway; it was all music to his ears. He had no little reputation around the night clubs as a hiker, but she was suddenly started from his soliloquy by a gentle tap on the door of his den. He opened the door wonderingly. A girl was standing in the hallway, her face was drawn and haggard, her gloveless hands were gray and covered with eyes. She walked, almost staggered into the room. The bridge light was poor and it was not until Leslie switched on the big light in the center of the room that he could make out her features. "Gwenbyaln," he cried, whatings you here and on a night like this. She opened her mouth to speak "Leslie," she said—she swayed, then sank to the floor. Leslie sprang to her side.

Objectors said the story preached social equality. Pagee Twelve By Gilmore Spencer Confirmed From Last Week The mourners, white and Negroid sang unaccompanied a quavering hymn, while the minister humbled hourly in his throat. One girl alone, at whom Allen glanced with appraisal, sustained the melody—a piece of the widow, Margaret told him, and therefore Negro also the widow's sole supporter. At the hour she shocked jokily in reacquainted abandon, with a divined gesture of utter grief she buried her head in the loose folds of her gown, and called a minor accompaniment to the hymn. Allen's throat contracted; his eyes smiled into Margaret's. At length the hymn ended, and the uninterrupted rubbing his hands, ushered all out, dismissing them for the funeral cortege. Margaret and Allen were among the first to reach their car. A woman, of dark, almost Spanish beauty, came by, carrying a little girl in her arms. "How are you, Sarah?" Margaree smiled. Sarah responded in a soft, melodious voice; I held, to the child for them to admire. Allen cared her soft auburn ringlets. "What an adorable little red-brown?" Sarah passed on. Allen looked at Ammy, who knew that that woman is sister of the widow?" Allen started in amazement. "She has Negro blood in her veins? And that cute little girl? I can't believe it." "Unfortunately, it's the truth." That became of the little girl. "Nobody would ever guess she has Negro blood." "She'll marry some poor white of the lowest class, and settle down to a life of drudgery. After all, she is, technically, a Negro. She ought to go North, where she could jass, as they say when a Negro associates with whites. Washington, New York, Harlem, the Meca of the New Negro, and all that! Here in the South with the Jim Crow she has a chance to the world. There, well, this alternative, she might. Well, this is difficult to say. You've always lived in the North, and you may not understand. There is a certain attraction, a certain . . . flair that matriatto women possess for the whites. I could simply examples, even here in this country. "And this attraction exists not only among the lowest white men, as you might think, but in all classes, among the rich, the cultured, and the aesthetic. Then as you can imagine, you can the appeal of matriatto for the white." Allen smiled, "Although I've been here four years, attending the University, I can't say that I had any difficulty. Not many do either. I remember, however, my first year in college. There were sixteen follows in the house where I was staying, and we field an informal course, which included chastity and four of the remaining eight had intercourse with the cutouts. But that average isn't at all representative of the University as a whole, and I had conversation from the idea that was lodging firmly, perversely in his mind. Allen spoke of the girl he owed, "I'm going to marry Patty," he said, when he graduated. He met a more charming girl in my life. I've been with her a great deal lately, and we have been practically engaged for the last couple of months. I thought that you would like to be the first woman." "I didn't know it had gone that far," Margaret exclaimed. "I knew that you liked her, but marriage...," She lay back on the seat, and a worried look appeared on her face. "Pattie's look at him oddly new and again; and her replica to his remarks were not always relevant. Her brows were pinched together in frowning thought, and once or twice her eyes closed as if she feared physical pain. It was not, however, until after the body he had red in the forearm, rain-soaked with that she told Allen the whole story. The bitter, poignant truth had first startled him to incredulous cursing; and even now, sitting in the apartment only a few steps away, he half believed it. Such entire wreckage of his hopes was beyond a comprehension calibrated by the ordinary conventions of his home and training; and in the flussery, shame-faced dreams of intellication he sought to understand, to love, to least, if honor were to beauty, at least, if honor were to CHILDREN CRY FOR "CASTORIA" Especially Prepared for Infants and Children of All Ages Mother!

"The flair of the white man..." He bud- dered; he could break the en- gagement and yet He had weakly put off the decision since that afternoon, trusting too much, accustomed as he was to the immature and light standards of morals that would, he felt, place a staying hand between him and any dishonorable act. Curiously, he had felt that circumstances decide, at personal volition counted, to lift University code of morals that would, he felt, place a staying hand between him and any dishonorable act. He now became aware of circumstances had betrayed him—his self-deception and knew that that second by second the decision was becoming harder to make; and no longer held his thoughts were no longer held or his mind became a weaker of emotions, a chanched whorl of involute pain. Dancing lights appeared before his eyes in the manner of a macabre mole of passions and foreseen retreats. Patty, for the first time, seemed to him the symbol of porverse and meretricious lust—have for her, momentarily, was become secondary to the conflict in his mind; she represented, not herself, but the subject of the alternative that faced him. That was the sweeping undercurrent of desire for fatty that was undermining his resistance, and impelled him toward her room. Thus he suffered the chorus of antiphons beating upon his conscience, and he strove to recognize the voice painting the true nature of that he had passed beyond the usual milie-posts of postulated him. r. In his condition he had no will to understanding, no voltion to a great abstinence. The eternal problem of the acts did not interest him; he thought only in terms of himself..... and Patty. He was beset with images of Patty ... her dark-lashed eyes serene in slumber, her hair ripping across her cheek and beneath her head a mass of glory on the pillow, th. unguarded breast in pure outline beneath caresses..... Patty, had said, "Th' last kiss?" with a question in her eyes that bellied the adjective; but then she did not know..... good God, she did not know. The sweat stood out on his hair, and his finger twisted about the empty glass. Whiskey had dulled his eyes, and the wine was bruised mentally, by the thudding impacts of choice and choice Chivalry, strangely disguised, mumbled false promptings from every corner of his ears increased, and the confused remembrance of Margaret's revelation faded away to unimportance and oblivion. Love was all that mattered, let honor go... Margaret was that opened for the closer the deeper, the ultimate kiss her eyes had yielded. "The flair..." Allen nurmured, unaware of what he "hid." At dawn he returned to the chair by the window, relaxed with a vague and infinite sadness, a resignation of remembrance that seemed as ghostly and unreal as electrifilaments dimmed by the brighter light. Margaret, caressing his hand and sorrowing for his shame, had made him believe that Negro blood ran in Patty's veins. Quickly, puffity whose husband you saw buried today, she had added the details, is the first daughter of the widow whose husband you saw buried today. She is the cousin, even of the little red-braided girl. But Patty, herself, does not know who she is. She thinks her mother died before that, that the baby died too, and that she the illegitimate child of the mutant was substituted by her own father. There are only three people who know the secret. Allen, dear, I am sorry; but I had to tell you this!" Allen had proclaimed, in utter despair, soul. Marriage with Patty now, now... He could not tell her why. The dawn wind slipping in thru the open window cooled his check, and the chill grey mistiness of roaring resplendent his night-time solstice to life. Not unutterly regret. His spent forces dulled the edges of emotion; his mind could feel, but only the soft, dolorous monotone of the forblanketed immensity of sea at daybreak. Allen, with an unconscious gesture, ordered the hair dropping above the vagueness of his eyes. His mind, but not his heart, hinned the acrasiation; you have betrayed his teeth and objects to inryear you. Why was he not filled with self-loathing? In grotesque theatricality he bared his teeth in rebellion against fate, and stretched his hand toward the liquor glass, then, wearily, he let his hands run. He forced Paaty, and happiness had been theirs, ... might even be ... on other terms. Then only, realizing his thought, did he really hate himself; and hated himself the more for knowing that in him he had hated the thought, but only the fact that she would never consent. Would she marry some one else? Allen heard Latter move, and muruously sigh, as if, unconsciously as yet, she had failed to clasp him. Quiz Box Q—How may coral beads be cleaned? A. C. S.

A wee bit timid he was at first, but soon he adjusted himself to this wider horizon and entered with his customary enthusiasm into his increased circle of interests. So it was that in the Primary Room of the Sunday-School, he made his contribution of reciting verses taught him in the home. Just like other little boys and girls. And oh how proud and happy he was with the bloom swelled with pride and joy. Then, like Alexander, he looked for more worlds to conquer. Daring seized him: Big Deeds beckoned to the big boys and girls, the big men and women in the big Sunday-School outside the closed doors of his Primary Department. Breathlessly he made known his wish to the Superintendent, and the pupil was given a gift—mildly ignoring him. The Great Moment arrived. He was sent for, and he came—came eagerly, on hurrying feet to this big Opportunity. He knew he was looking upon a sea of faces—a vast sea which stretched endlessly before him. And each face had two eyes—just millions and millions of eyes, eyes, eyes. And every one of these millions and millions of eyes was straight at him—at one, little lone boy not quite six years old. His face slowly whitened and he caught his breath. An expression of bewildered surprise crept into the clear, bright eyes. This wasn't his world, the world he knew. This was something overwhelmingly big, terrifyingly strange. Strange—except for one face which shone out clear and distinct above the rest. The face that had hovered above him all his short life. And upon that face the bewildered gaze clung, while, with a desperate little appeal in his voice, he said. "Mia, you'll have to help me, please." "All right, son. Mama will help appease the first words of the paparazzi." How To Have Beautiful Floors How To Have Beautiful Floors Do you want beautiful, attractive rooms? Then look at your floors, which are the foundation of everything in the , am. With just a little paint, you can make a suitable color to harmonize with surroundings and then can be kept waxed. The first step in rewarming would be to remove the old finish. There are many good varnish resists, but some may be used, or the floor may be planned or sandpapered. The floor can then be scrubbed clean with some good cleaning agent and hot water. Lye solutions and caustic soda may also be used to remove varnish, using three tablespoons of soda or to quart of hot boiled starch. New we can apply the shellac varnish. Have the room free from dust and the brushes clean. Varnish should be brushed lengthwise the grout, and may for about two minutes. Then if necessary apply a coat of varnish. Waxed oars are so easily cared for and have so much charm and distinction. At all times you warnished to apply wax to the ends of wax. Apply wax in thin coats. Allows to dry well, then polish your floor, lengthwise the grain with a floor polisher. The floors are shining and bright how shall we keep them so? Near doors and in halls, etc. lay small rugs. Each day your waxed floors should be swept with a soft brush. Do once a week they should be given a thorough cleaning either with a damp cloth, or with a cloth moistened with turpentine or gasoline. Where the wax has worn off, the coat and then the occasionally the enile floor should be gone over. BEAUTY HINTS Back of all beauty, like a rythmic background, is the bath. We say of certain persons 'they are pretty' and of certain persons 'they are something about them that charms, something that pleases—they are clean. With them the bath is part of the daily ritual and they go forth beautifying in beauty" as Jean Roamer says in Cane. One catches a deep breath when he catches sight of some one perfectly conditioned. Of the lilies that betall the skin are due to lack of bathing care. Ammonia placed in the bath water once in several days is splendid for the skin. Then after that or hot warm bath, the cold spray to tone and key up the whole body. In the morning a quick and very refreshing bath with a towel towel is splendid when there is no time for more extensive treatment. There is a secret about bathing, it is this: the more you bath the more urgent to and the less you bath the less you want to—the deduction is obvious.

The baby voice took up the words On—on and then he faltered—stopped. Once again came the appeal, "you'll have to help me, please." And once again Mama helped. This time he went bravely on to the end. And the generous, loving applause which followed wiped from the baby heart his Big Moment; he had had his Big Moment; he had somehow conquered another world. Just a little incident from life, dear reader, something which happened in my own Sunday-School last Sunday, thrilled to the joy and significance of his My thoughts ran far afield and I saw youth, the youth of to-day. Supremely self-confident, eagerly enthusiastic, they rush out from the narrow confines and the rehearsal of home to the Big Moment, the new environments of the world outside. Out they go, during in their ignorance, recklessly brave in their sublime conceit. And who would say they the destined way. But when the world,—as so often it does,—threatens to overwhelm, to engulf, to overcome, to lose, to lose the years and ripen wisdom must ready to answer the appeal for help. Then it is that we must repeat the words, must give youth the key to the verse of true living, must start them off again when he falter and seem about to fail. This, then, is our duty.

BY ELIZABETH HARDY In talking about laughing and crying, we find that man was the only animal that exhibited such actions; evidently they have some relation to his reasoning powers. It is still more correct to say that man is the only animal that blushes. Nature has some wise end to serve or we would not have developed this peculiar action, and whatever that purported to be, it has been the faculties that distinguish man from other animals. Blushing is involuntary on your part, but also the habit tends to pass away as we become mature. Then it must serve some purpose that, in after years, reason and judgment serve be, and the habit of involuntary act of youthful years ceases. Man has a moral nature not less than reasoning powers, and civilization would have no whole destiny of acting in a way generally held to be wise and right. Nature apparently uses blushing to gradually become more confident, gradually withdrawing her assistance in reason becomes stronger. You may laugh or cry when alone, but only when you are present. And further, you do not blush unless you think you have been detected in acting or entertaining thoughts that do not meet the approval of others, or it is not appropriate to act quite right when called on, and nature forcibly calls you or attention to this error in conduct by suffering your blush when you have no occasion to do so, you have, or are going to and that others know it, and nature sizes the opportunity to impress on you unseemly acts, even in thought.

There are to be no inexperienced turkers in our household or under his bed such as we had suffered from in our childhood. For the first three years of his life the word "afraid" was never used in his presence. or if it was, it was not. We did not get a hint of its significance. Nobody was permitted to read "Little Red Riding Hood!" He was put at a regular time in his little bed upstairs and left there to go serenely to sleep while his parents sat over a wow. Fine! It worked like a charm. On his third Christmas, with our permission, a doting aunt presented him with a gallant little rocking horse—mouth open as he strained at the bit and nostrils spread wide as he tried to lift the boy's spirit. The boy loved it. He stroked it and petted it in an cestasy of delight. He patted its back and put his hand into the mouth to caress the red tongue and the white teeth; and at this point the aunt felt she muscled the child's muscles and the child's pleasure and cried out with mock alarm: "Look out he doesn't bite you!" There was a gasp from my little boy. His hand was snatched out of the mouth and he st d petrified, waiting to be bitten. The aunt laughed merrily. We parents assured her we were a kid. We ment he went on playing with his wooden horse — but still out of range of a possible vicious bite from the gasping jaws. Before Christmas day was passed the incident seemed to have been dismissed for good and the boy was taken away. Young son soon learned that his toy horse not and could not bite but he also learned that real horses do bite, and he gave them a wide berth on the street from that day on. Then there came the night when he woke up screaming that a horse had bitten him and from then on he associated fear of horses with the FRIENDSHIP LODGE, No. 29 Knights of Pythias CHESTERTOWN, MD.

Other animals rapidly joined the ranks. It was useless to argue or explain. Fear is not a matter of logic. A single little sentence is useful in being but not all the sentences, however persuasive and reasonable, have yet been able to drive out fear. He is saddled with it until he shall reach an age when of itself, it will go. An until that time what are we two parents to do? How can we combat fear? Some of our friends advise ignoring it; some of them advise disciplining it; some of them advise light and leave him alone no matter what the boy does. Make him face it. We are not taking anybody's advice however. Parents never do. We are not letting our boy's face of the darkness—at his age—be toby letting him have a candle burning in his room till he has fallen asleep. I tried disciplining him just once and was convinced by his panic-striken screams that he kept it up I should be branding the sar more deeply into him, perhaps deeply he would never get over it. So I am pampering him, hoping to lead him by forgetfulness, out of the dread clutch of fear. I know I can't discipline it out of him. I know I can't discipline it out of him. But I have reason to think I am weaning it out of him, or the other night, when I was putting him to bed my boy said: "Flow out the candle, Daddy. I want to try sleeping the way you and mother do in the morning." So I blew it out and he went to sleep without a murmur. I wish I could announce that from that night forth he never wanted the candle again, but that wouldn't be telling the truth.

VOTELESS DIXIE A SPECTER IN 69TH CONGRESS Question Of Disfranchisement Of Negroes Continually Discussed FINAL FILIBUSTER LASTED 37 HOURS Penna. Senator Wanted To Know Why Coolidge Got So Few Colored Votes BY LOUIS R. LAUTIER WASHINGTON, D. C. From the beginning to the ending of the second session of the sixty-ninth Congress, the question of the disfranchisement of colored persons in the South was continually under discussion. In the 37-hour bilbuster conducted by Senators David A. Reed, of Pennsylvania, and George M. Moses, of New Hampshire, against the resolution of James A. Reed, Democrat, of Missouri, proposing to extend the life of the committee investigating senatorial campaign expenditures and enlarge its authority, a demand for an investigation of the "unconstitutional suppression" of the Negro vote in southern states was the specter with which the Pennsylvania Reed sought to frighten inconsistent Democrats into opposing a further investigation into the "glush-fun" committee. Primary Is the primary an integral part of the election and the process of electing a president, right of the Congress to regulate it and of the Senate to investigate it? What is the election Senator Reed of Pennsylvania put to individual Democratic Senators from southern states after receiving election returns? If the primary was suppressed, owed vote had been suppressed. If the primary is a part of the process of electing a president applies to it, Senator Reed of Pennsylvania continued, and practices in a primary which violate the fourteenth amendment cannot be. 14th Amendment Taking the State of Texas as an example of one of the places that might be investigated with pro-terrorism methods are a legal or illegal on their face, to eliminate from a share in population, Senator Reed of Pennsylvania declared that the state statute relating to pro-terrorism state nearly "contravenes the spirit of the fourteen amendments." Texas Senator Earle B. Mayfield, Democrat, of Texas, said that "In the last election for President Willem J. Negro was permitted to vote in your primary, and you never held a general election in 12 counties. A black man got a chance to vote at either time, because you would not permit him to vote in the primary, and you did not hold a general election at which he could vote." Alabama Another illustration Senator Reed of Pennsylvania gave was the State of Alabama. In Marengo county, according to the last census, there were 21 years of age and yet in the presidential election of 1924, he said, there were cast for President Coolidge only votes. Senator Reed, who was the first to find out how it can be that the presidential candidate of the Republican party can receive only 17 votes out of 12,300 black people of voting age, said the Republican candidate for United States Senator for Alabama received only 14 votes in the city of Montgomery, Senator Reed pointed out for those people as a population of 19,000 Negroes. Among them are 12, Alabama Senator Reed cited the following figures from the Presidential election of 1924; to show the extent of distrustship in the State of Qualified Voters "I have been trying to ascertain," said Senator Reed, "the percentage of the qualified Negroes who have enjoyed the suffrage that we have guaranteed to them after a two constitutional amendments. The calculation of the percentage in Tallapoosa coun.' Ala., has one forty-third of one per cent, assuming that the one Republican who uproarse at the election in 1923 was black. If he was white, then the percentage Arkansas Senator Reed of Pennsylvania had figures only from the county of Crittenden in Arkansas. With the presidential election of 1924, the 17 votational were cast for President Coolidge. Crittenden county has 13,343 adult Negroes. One-half of 1 per cent of the person that would reasonably be expected to vote for the Republican candidate, voted, said Senator Reed.

I had interview today after the fight of the heavyweight championship of the world here, in which "Jack" Johnson, the Negro pugilist of Galveston, Tex., won over "Tommy Burns" the Welsh Canadian. Johnson spoke as follows: "I never doubted the issue from the beginning. I knew I was too good for Burns. I have forgotten more about Thing than Burns ever knew. I was sure I would win from the start. The referee was fair, and I have no complaint to make." Johnson hammered Burns out of the world's heavyweight championship in 14 rounds of one-sided fighting, and today for the first time in the annals of the prize ring a Negro is the undisputed champion of the world. WILLS LEAVES BATH RESORT FOR THE FARM Harry Says He'll Make Comeback In Ring This The victor received $5000 and the vanquished $3000, but he paid a large sum of money he have won in the first minute of the fight, when he drove Burns to the canvas with a terrific kick, dazed throng of $0.000 how far he outclassed the man they had come to look upon and he seemed almost to stay his hand. Johnson Was Savage Then he took the fearful vengeance for the slights, rebuffs and insults he had suffered for three years at the hands of this man, whom he had chased across three continents and killed him in the rim of the world. For 14 rounds he pounded him with savage cruelty. Burns was blinded and bleeding and reeling weakly away from the police, who won the police in pity, stopped the butchery. Burns took the count of eight four times in the battle. Burns Goes Down Then something happened so swiftly and unexpectedly that the crowd could not realize what happened with the count. Johnson poised almost carelessly, with his hands half raised, awaiting the rush. As Burns launched the rush, Johnson's b d y swapped forward, his curved right arm licked up inside with the speed of a strike, squashed on the chin. Burns' head snapped back as if released from a spring. He spun half way round knee by knee, by the shock, and dropped to his hands and knees. It was done so quickly that the blow seemed to push the crowd as well as the champion. From that moment there was no doubt about the result. Burns recovered from the blow in the second half, his eighth seconds to regain his fast after he had taken another of the same kind in the next round. He was a smash the heart. In the fourteenth he was knocked down again, and in every round his face and body were at the mercy of the crowd. He must have known in the nest round that he could not win, but he gave not sign. His eyes began to swell, and close up, out of his face and he gasped as the Negro drove blow after blow with cruel force, but always he came back in succession. His grinning face and sneered as he easily blocked and slipped Burns feeble efforts to land, but the white man returned back through tasted his. Burns Seemed Slow No fighting like Johnson's was ever seen here since Australia showed up above the waters. Australians understand now why Fitzsimmons could not stand up for two rounds before the black man. Those who had bet on Burns at 7 to 4 and then tried to hedge by offering 2 to 1 on Johnson at the end of the first round forgot their prospective losses in watching the marvelous attack of the champion. He never appeared to move, but he made Burns seem slow and heavy-footed. No heavyweight, with the possible exception of Corbett, ever rivalled his skill as a boxer. Never at rest he seemed always poised to launch a smashing blow with either hand. A hitch of his body, a turn of his head, and a deadly blow glanced harmlessly by. With his opened gloves he tossed off Burns' heavy smashes like a schoolboy catching In the madness of a hot exchange he never seemed to make a hasty move. He was reeling in an artist might have seen in the soft, catlike footwork, in the quick flush of his skin, in the plaint muscles the sinister beauty of a black painter. And he was as pitiless. He ripped Burns' face and hammers his jaw with a sword, joy of payment of a panther rending his prey. He grinned all the time, but it was not the good-natured smile with brutal joy. His eyes glittered with brutal joy. GANS TOLD JOHNSON HOW TO WIN BATTLE "Don't Rough It. But Peck At Jee's Face." Was "Joe's" Tip While the big fight in Reno was on in June 10 there was probably not one who dropped a thought of "Joe" Gans battling the "white plague" in Prescott, Ariz, and yet that same Gans in all probability played a big part in the victory of Johnson. When Johnson appeared here last January it was more than the same, and Gans should discuss the battle. It is a fact that Gans advised Johnson to fight just such a battle that the champion told his heavy-weight friend that the sure way to down Jeffries was not to rough it with him. Johnson saw Jeffries his face, and that is exactly what Johnson did. A glance at the number of blows aimed and those that landed show the preponderance of offensive activity according to the instruction of Gans. Eagles Win Opener The Penn.

He points out how great the efforts were among certain politicians to prevent Firpo jumping and to see who was able to dodge him successfully, and how finally Sharkey was given a victory over him by a foul. He said he was able to dodge him successfully, and what Wills told me. I pretty well had his number when they gave the bout to him on a foul. No one was there. He said the referee said, "I disqualify you." "For what I yelled," and, the newspaper men who had to send out the referee, he said a foul, made it read in addition that he had won on points. "I am not kicking," said Wills, "but I will be back there this summer." The Wife All Wills' talk is not about boxing.

Forward, Evans, Wilberforce; Ward, center, Wilberforce; Guard, Thompson, Wilberforce. Picking the all big four selection this season is a man-size job as Wilberforce; Ward, center, and Lincoln with a stellar team to say nothing a all about, Morgan. It was taken for granted that the Baltimore Collegian, inter-collegiate champions last year still hold that title by vulture of two, defenses handed to Lincoln, C. I. A. A. Champs, and a thrilling victory over the famous western hurricane, Wilberforce University. Howard had a world of material off the ball and started the season off well, but a decided slump overlook them when Simpson dropped out of school. Lincoln and Wilberforce were late g titing started, but managed to get out good teams. Richie, son, of the court saved Wilberforce from many defeats by his sensational shooting. His floorwork at forward was better than any player who performed in this section this season. He gained his sinking of baskets from all angles of the court was a spectacular feat. Hill Good "Marse" Hill, the elongated forward of Morgan was one of the best basket ringers in the big four hoop. He can make field goals from every possible angle at home or abroad. It was his precision of shot-making that Howard in Washington and in Baltimore. Jones at center has no peers, he is the best in the East and probably in the country. He is tall and gets the bail at the tap-off which point of play is crucial for Howard big scores registered. One of the hardest positions to determine is guard. Wheatley gets one of the positions because he is the best defensive player in the big four combination. Bundrant of Howard who gets the other with one of the fastest men in the game plays a "jam-up" game at all times. The second team is just a good combination, that's all. BORDENTOWN BEATS WISSAHICKON 32-5 Quakers No Match For Fast New Jersey Tossers BORDENTOWN, N. J., MAR.—Bordentown's "Miracle Five," prospective claimants for the N.Y. junior basketball circles, gained a sweet revenge here, Friday, when it trampled the speedy Wissahickon Boys' Club of Germantown, 32 to 5. The Speed Marvels had previously unified in defeat on the Jersey schoolboys and they found the Bordentown quintet on edge, eager for revenge. The one-sided score furnishes no indication of the thrills that the game held, for from the opening tap-off until the final both teams were in there fighting. Neale started things off for Bordentown by slipping away from his guard and sinking a goal two minutes after the game started. Russ followed up with a beautiful shot, shot tightly filled three feet from it found the basket. This giant forward was unstoppable. With a total of six field goals and three foul shots he was high scorer for the evening, but was closely pushed by Captain Bonnie the time it was stretched during the second half without undue exertion. Wisshickon seemed rattled during the entire game. The Jersey schoolboys wind up their season this week with two games with Student Irene Newark and four with seventeen won and but three lost stamps this combination as the best vet turned out by Coach Chagrin.

SEMINARY NO MATCH FOR SCHOLASTICS BY "AL" BISHOP PHILADELPHIA, PA.—The Virginia Seminary dropped their first contest on their northern tour when they suffered a 23-14 jolt at the hands of the Philadelphia Scholastics Saturday. "Stretch" Cooper proved to be a real terror to the invaders from the south, the big center man garnered twelve of his teammates total of twenty-three points, and the defense in the early minutes of play, Jackie Bethards who was the sensation while in New England, excelled with Charlie Mitchell, both men waging their way through the Seminary defense via the dribbling route. Luke Bell was the first one to score for or against when he booked a pretty one hand shot from a difficult angle. Davis played a good passing game for the losers while Bates failed to come up to his usual form. The Scholastic machine worked rather smoothly as the hooligans at the opening of the first half and were never headed during the remainder of the game. The Scholastics are primed to take the measure of the Lincoln Lions in the return engagement in Philadel- phila 80on.

Coach Gibson started his second team on the warpath and the boys appeared stale and far below the regulars.

They went into the fray with a world of speed and fight and until the first string crew was ushered in outplayed the Ducks completely. Just before the finale of the first half the entrance of Caliway Jones, Campbell, and Addison checked the Vocational boys and Douglass led 3 to 10 at the end of the half. The Ducks started the second session in the grand style and after three consecutive field goals by Jones pulled out to a wide margin. The Vocational cagers made three points in the final half and goal and a free tooss by Banke. Friday's game ended the Douglass High School's basketball season.

Thoughts Of The Founder Thoughts Of The Founder A customer came into a store and wanted to buy some calloches. He asked the clerk would they fade. Now this clerk was one who had had the benefit of an id-fashioned mother who believed in bringing up her children in the right way, and who did not purchase all his dealings to be honest and truthful. He told the customer that they were wrong. He did not purchase them out. The proprietor asked him the reason why the w man did not buy the goods and the clerk told him. The proprietor became erased at once and dismissed the young man. The young got another job because he was honest and truthy and honesty with him. He found the proprietor more inclined to truthfulness in his dealings than the first man. He was honesty and brightness he soon became the leading salesman in the store and in due course of time an associate in the business had become the boss he had done so much to build. J. M. Mullery United We Fall Divided We Stand That is the motto of Chicago now in the threes of a mayoralty campaign. Union may be all right in some things is the way Chicago colored voters figure it off, but it is as senseless for all to be republicans as it is for all to wear red shirts or belong to the Presbyterian church. So it happened that Bishop Archibald J. Carey of the A. M. E. Church launched in Masonic Temple last week the campaign of William Hale Thompson, republican for mayor, declaring that the present mayor, a democrat controlling the city, must just admit that colored citizens without rhyme or reason. Later, he said every one was dismissed by the court. Thompson asked the meeting for numbers of police who are making raids in the colored section and promises to fire them when he is elected. He promised to make sure for the mayor, actor Danny Carrol, "that hell ask for a furlough in hell." A municipal judge who had dismissed 500 of those innocent colored folk arrested by Deer's cops in their raids in the colored section promised the unlawful raids. I'll release as many as they bring Rev. L. K. Williams and another delegation the same day visited the city hall and commended Mayor Dever for his police raids in the colored section, declaring that the police had been lawlessness which has prevailed in some sections of the colored district and stand squarely behind the police drive to curb it. Who is right, Rev. Mr. Williams, or Bishop Carey? The City Council, Adlerman Lewis B. Anderson declared that the police arrested 100 citizens, forcefully entering private homes and business places without warrants, herded these people in the station houses for 36 hours without communication in bondmen, at dwellings. Mayor Dever's signed statement denies this. He says this colored district raided has been notorious for many years abounding with dens of vice and iniquity and offering a constant threat to the orderly white and colored folk who live nearby. He says he has instructed the police to preserve the peace in this district where cabarets, gambling dens and vice houses are wide open and take whatever steps are necessary to this end. The mayor's vote showed that ninety-five percent, of the colored voters are with Thompson. Whether they will stick with him in the general election against Dever, the democrat, is another question. It is clear, however, that the Chicago leaders are on both sides of the fence, which is always the place for sensible politicians to be. President Borno If there were any doubts that the State Department of this country means to keep its hands firmly grasped around the throat of Haitian economists in the merely a tool of American financial interests, recent happenings there must have dispelled them. In fact the deliberate barring of a United States Senator from Haiti where U. S. Marines are in complete common sense would make the serious picture the serious shock it must have given liberty loving men and women who are familiar with the growing imperfections of the present administration. But everybody with a grain of common sense knows where the current was turned on which produced the shock to Senator King. Again Dionzo has been mistaken in which Haitians charge in standing, between them and self government. It's all so very simple Secretary Kellogg, who has fully Page Sixteen Call Vernon 6016 demonstrated his ability to look out after financial interests exploiting peons in Mexico and Nicaragua, certainly would not want any Senator cavorting around over in Haiti giving the real Haitians any "pernicious" ideas that Haiti did not belong to these United States. So our State Department evidently gave Borno the high sign that now is the time to "do his stuff and he puffs out his chest, slams the door in the face of a Senator of the mightiest nation on the face of the earth and brushes his hands with a "that's that" attitude. To real analysts Borno will fade out of the picture and the Italian hand of the State Department will be clearly seen. But it ought to be a big deal. The logos that no wool is being pulled over anybody's eyes. From now on American race leaders will be inclined to believe the propagandists of the Union Patriotique, the Haitian anti-Borno society which accuses the United States of student playing into the hands of oppressors of the real Haitian citizens. An Important Decision An Important Decision In the recent bitter debates in the Senate about political conditions in various States, North and South, frequent reference was made to the fact that any Negro, however able otherwise to qualify, to vote in a Democratic primary in that State. This fact was referred to by an Ohio Senator, which forbids any Negro to hold office against black men. In retort, a Southern Senator pointed to the Constitution of the State of Ohio, which forbids any Negro to hold office against black men. That provision was to ig age put into the Ohio Constitution and has not been removed, but it was made wholly inoperative by the Fourteenth Amendment of the Federal Constitution. In actual fact, colored men have held all kinds of offices in Ohio. All such little skirmishes have now been resolved by the Supreme Court of the United States yesterday, holding the Texas primary law unconstitutional in so far as it deprives a Negro of the right to vote in the primary, provided he can meet the other qualifications. The case is doubly important. It decides not only the immediate issuance of the Court must be if other trials, involving discriminatory legislation against colored men are got involved, but it is the first time that the Supreme Court has pronounced on the clear issue of the rights of black men, as constitutional amendments adopted after the Civil War. In the decision read by Justice Holmes, and the decision of the Supreme Court, it is tersely stated that "the laws of all States" must stand for the black the same as the laws of the United States before the Court with the argument that the case involved merely a "political question." As a writer of the legislation that can properly be described as political — not involving, that is, the Court must take judicial notice. In this case Justice Holmes dismissed the contention that the decision of the constitutional rights should be regarded as merely political, as being "little more than a play upon words." The Court must go to the essence of the matter. Probably even in Texas it will now be admitted that the statute held invalid by the Supreme Court was all along a mistake. The court cannot be enough Democratic Negroes in Texas to trouble the party managers. A law, barring the colored men from the Democratic primary was unreasonable, and the constitutional issue in a way which, when fought through from the lower courts as it has been by the Association which has made the case to secure the rights of Negroes through the courts, the Supreme Court could not avoid passing upon positively. This it has now done and the court is using a legal handicap, besides being big with political consequences. Should Have Convinced Should Have Convinced (Ralchol News and Observer) The Lumberton Robesonian gives effective answer to the sophistication of those legislators who seek to excuse their vote to table the measure condemning the K. K. K. It says of the action: "a case of the General Assembly marched up the hill and then marched down again. It won a brief glory by voting to unmask the Ku Klux Khan, and then allowed itself to unmask the Senate itself, then to unmask itself instead, same as the Senate did four years ago, when the House passed an unmasking bill and the Senate made a sorry spectacle of itself by declining to do That is an action of which members of the House have no cause to be proud. It puts a premium on the protection of the bills. The very fact that the bills to unmask the klan were introduced by former members who see the danger members of the klan are facing, members behind masks ought to have convinced the solons that it was necessary to provide a cover behind which vicious men, whether members of the klan or not, can do all sorts of harm. We have not the nerve to do unmasked. When the paid jobbists of the klan got busy they herded the mem- bers up the hill and run along down hill again; and they ran. It was a sorry spectacle. DAYBYDAY A manufacturer to whom this writer appealed for a position for a capable young man of the race must: I regret that I cannot employ this young man because of the obvious difficulties involved, but I want to assure you that I have the ability to work at heart and have more than once had the pleasure to demonstrate it in donations to worthy causes. I above is typical of the tenor of many white philanthropists who find it more convenient to dispense charity to the group than to go along with the chance to get along without charity. White men who want to be 100 per cent fair, 100 per cent honest and 100 per cent fair in the race question it have come to the conclu- that equality in the chance to make a livelihood in salaries for similar services absolute fairness in human competition without regard to color IS THE ONLY PRACTICAL WAY. If you should wipe from the statute books all discriminatory laws blot out lynchers, give them the right to deny members of the group access to certain jobs and equal salaries, they would still die faster have more criminality and the rest of the citizens. Shall we rejoice with or shall we pity Arthur and John Sewell, eight and ten year old Chicago who have fallen into great wealth? We naturally rejoice today but what will we do 20 years hence? Because poverty is fatal, they are both mighty handicaps. With $12,000 pouring into their coffers each month will these two young chaps develop the same amount as the hundreds of thousands of young helpfuls WHO KNOW THEY MUST FIGHT FOR THEY GET IN THIS WORLD? If John and Arthur Sewell's parents are wise they will not let this money you can spend THIS REAL CHANCE IN LIFE. Many young reading of their seeming good fortune will ponder what it means to have all the money you can spend and Fredrick Douglas were born there were thousands of boys who came into this world at the same time with silver spoons in their mouths. This very minute in some alley is playing a lad who may rise to higher accomplishments than these men, and they may cling like a body of death. What Is "Good Luck?" But let us rejoice with hope that Arthur and John Sewell will take advantage of the PLUS THE SPIRIT OF STRUGGLE WILL GIVE THEM. A strike in unusual places. A few years ago John Sewell almost relinquished his land for lack of $100 to pay off a mortgage for doing nothing but counting it, then President Coolidge gets for wrestling with a nation business, encounters with a bat, Babe Ruth draws down more cash than any college president in the country. But no one else would change places with Babe Ruth. "Luck" struck these boys a boyhood dream. "Luck" one just as good by proving that money is not always a drawback. Thousands have provoked a worse evil, a POVERTY. Non-Partisan League A writer suggests the organization of a national non-partisan league as a method of taking control of the Supreme Court primary law decision. Another suggestion which ought to interest Kelly Miller is that a political sainthood, composed of women, should never accept or traffic in offices, take over the political reins and organize a strong voting machine. It is not expected that the Supreme Court decision will be self-sacting. At best, it will be only a small part of the writer to this column suggests, there was a genuine organization of 50,000 young men and women capable of questioning every aspect of the enfranchisement act, the Southern states, and that these young men and women divided their affiliation about equality in the Supreme Court. Democratic parties. They could therefore effectually function in local, as well as national politics. Here is a possible career for organizing with organization ability. Any old party would take the time to listen to any man who represented a properly elected votes. Down in South Carolina alone, according to Dr. William Porter, and women who would have no difficulty in qualifying to vote whether they were wanted or not. In many of the states, the vote is in municipal affairs. But if 50,000 votes were organized into a "shock trump" of voters under proper leadership, the weakest sector. THEY WOULD ACCOMPLISH MORE IN ONE YEAR THAN OUR PRESENT SYSTEM OR SPOLIS GRABBING THE weakest sector. ACCOMPLISH IN A GENERATION.

A Lawyer Believes Two Years College Work Should Be Required Of Law Students. There are within the State of New York about sixty-five Negro members of the Bar. Perhaps all of these reside in and practice within the State, but like most of their group, they cannot boast of great wealth, and in the majority of cases they have qualified to serve the Bar through manifold struggles and defeats. Yet, almost without exception those of this new school are men who had a degree from a reputable institution of higher education their matriculation in a law school. I believe that the educational requirements should be raised, before they are admitted for the purpose of perfecting himself for admission to the Bar. Most of the Negro members of the Bar of this State to whom I have spoken are men who have a college degree should be required. While I do not go that far, I do think that one who holds himself out to give counsel or advice as to the Negro community in venues or their preparation and management and who appears in court for the conduct of trials, should be better equipped educationally and just leave preparatory school. It has been said that a lawyer comes closer to his client than a lawyer comes closer to the client. That is indeed quite true, and in many instances, no doubt, can be pointed to where many clients have failed in their efforts, the inefficiency of their attorneys. I, for one, would not lend myself to any propaganda that might militate against a boy, and particularly a poor Negro boy, who seeks to enter into the profession of the law where he may be denied an opportunity to enter into this complicated society to administer a law, but may be denied an opportunity to become a member of the legal profession, he can find ample opportunity to properly equip himself before entering into the society. If members of my race Group can surmount the obstacles of prejudice, unjustice, and unequal employment opportunities, and they desire higher educational qualifications for admission to the Bar, then I can sure assure them that higher educational qualifications for the admission to the Bar will provide their opportunities in this profession. This letter merely expresses my expectation that the matters herein contain If South Carolina Was Not Such A Savage Reality, It Would Be The Wake, Best Joke, Says Win Pickens. To the Editor: Governor Richards of South Carolina invited the interested in stopping golf playing at Alken. He knows it is wicked for the people in the winter resort to play on Sunday, therefore using all the powers of his office, and all the officers under the higher courts of the State in his righteous zeal to stop a harmless sort of two, two. The constable of the State to Alken, if necessary, to stop the games and arrest the "criminal" ball across, the field there. But this governor cannot do a thing about the lynching on the most savage acts ever committed by man against man. Of course, Mr. Richards had a purpose, and would, or rather would not do just before he came into office. But that talk had its purpose. He met the Alken and South Carolina at that time and the incoming governor was simply "possessed" by those who have had the experience with his "God-fearing" kind, knew that the talk was simply for momentary The righteous "talk" by this governor, and also that by some of the newspapers of the State, had him Down Any Rising Sentiment in Favor Of An Anti-Lynching Law Of Congress. The object of the news paper is to hoodwink northern papers into saying: "The south is all right; they are as much opposed to that murder as anybody else." The north is easily fooled in such cases, they seem to want to be fooled: they like to believe, in order to deceive themselves and to be able to wash their hands, — and feel righteous also. The religious development of the south wants to deceive themselves into feeling righteous. The north likes to feel: "O yes, yes, — we are opposing it." And we would do something to stop it, if we did not see that the south is going to stop it themselves." And more liberal "urgent sentiment" of the south, "the advancing south" and other such sleeping potions which they give the people in order to instable conflict. Governor Richards knows this. That other governor who went out of office knelt in the dark in an ind of religious talk to the public galleries, until the natural resentment of mankind cooled sufficiently, and now they have back to back to await the next horrible lynching. was born in South Carolina.

To the Editor: While, perhaps, every constitutional student of this country was of the opinion that the democratic primary of the States (?) violated the extent of the citizenship right guaranteed by the United States Constitution, they reconciled themselves to an opinion that, in as much as the primaries had functioned up to date without anyone being able to get the question before our Supreme Court, and it having served its purpose so well, with little, if any, friction, they, the primaries, would be allowed to remain on the lawbook indefinitely. When the newspapers announced the Court decision it came like a bombshell bursting among our millions of minds, both white and colored, and none have sufficiently recovered from the shock to clearly say just what effect the decision will have. I am of the opinion that the statute, creating the white primary and democratic organizations throughout the southland will resort to a set of potential rules that will enable them to still maintain their voting will be obligatory in group in the southern states realizes that the ballot is their all in and meet the requirements of whatever they may be, and register their vote in the state into an office of the white man's determinate to the contrary. Wm. Porter, Spartanburg, S. C. Perry Howard Says Supreme Court Primary Decision Ranks With Pronunciaments In "Grandfather and Louisville Segregation Case. To the Editor: In my opinion the decision of the State Court of Louisville primary law deserves to be placed side by side with the pronunciaments of that court in the "Grandfather clause and Louisville Segregation Case." It serves on the Nation that the highest court will not tolerate the putting of discriminatory words in state statutes, which will denial nullification of our rights. Some states have sought to do by indirection what this decision says. It is important, while they do not put into the states discriminatory words prohibiting Negroes from participating in governmental authority to Democratic state executive committees, which promulgate the calls for the primaries and participate in them. Under this decision, in my bpination, no legislature committee authority which is not reserved in them; that is, the power to issue notices of discrimination account of race or color in primaries. If the same agency that made this wonderful fight will now turn to another, it will be placed upon the Federal statutes an act providing for registration under Federal supervision, so that each parity shall be represented at the registration. If we allow one Democratic clerk to exercise his absolute discretion in determining what citizens shall qualify for registration, years before there would be in Congress from the South twenty-five or thirty representatives of color. I may add that voters are not likely to be made to would make of the Negro a voter and would serve as the greatest assurance against lynching. Yours truly, Perry W. Howard, Washington, D. C. The Purging Of Of Aiken The Purging Of Of Aiken The Columbia (S. C.) Record The Thames in Aiken County are no doubt the winners. ness in Aiken County are no doubt unfortunate. For, be it known of all men, four non-voting, non-officeholding, non-political members of the winter storm unparadonable in play of golf there on Sunday, were duly arrested on Monday, and we assume they were not morning about the hour the editor left the room by the so-called intelligent composer. They were arrested on warrants sworn out by Sherif Nolley, and two window panes out of the kitchen of the jail in Aiken in protest against the Lowermen last October. We understand, likewise, so servent now is the zeal for law enforcement, that newsboys were permitted to write newspapers on the streets on Sunday. The dispatches do not indicate that Sherif Robinson saw the inquisitive golfers who desecrated the cemetery, and swore out the "warrants on "information and belief," and in so doing he proved that he was alive and responsive to the call of duty, and that he had red-handed lynchers (whose names are reputed to be well known) are still at large, and no warrants have been issued against them, their wholesale crime was committed five months ago. But there is this distinction, which should be remembered by any who may be disposed to cavalry. They did not want to be there, therefore the laws against bear-baiting, bull-baiting, interludes, and sports and pastimes, including the ancient and honored pastime of singing "Niggers," were not violated. ADJUDED BY "OPORTUNITY" AS THE BEST OLDED WEEKLY, 1925-28 A drunken man, reeling along the street with difficult inebriate equilibrists, saw a street-car cleaner pulling at the end of a long wrench, opening a water hydrant at a corner, so as to flush the drains. To the man who was unscrewing this hydrant the drunken man remarked: "So — er — youre the man (hict!) that twistin' this street around an 'around!' Heard and Seen In Baltimore The doleful season is upon us, that time of year known as Lent when we make sacrifices by giving up all the pleasures that we don't get any pleasure out of any way. Some folks are sincere in their religion. We met a blind man the other day who declared that he never goes to the movies during Lent. And what a sacrifice it must be for a one legged man to give up his dancing class. And on, the anguished sufferer by a total abstainer who can't have his gin. Some people work eat meat during the season, not so much because they are strict observers, but because they can't afford it. Some folks have eaten so much they when but in a bath tub. Every time they see a man with a can of worms, they get nervous. Not eating meat won't bother you if you happen to be a vegetarian. A Pennsylvania avenue man was so shocked he wouldn't even eat animal stews. He stared away from the theatre on Friday because he didn't like hams. Lent is the time of year when you refuse to eat the things you like best if anybody is looking at you. It's the time when you have to sneak down in the cellar after everybody is asleep to get out. You would hardly be termed a moonshiner just because he brews up a pot of corned beef and cabbage. Folks are supposed to stay home from theatres, dances and all other amusements for forty days. This gives you a chance to save up money enough to buy a new Easter Hat. Then being good 40 days in a year will give you chance to think the next great movement to last you the next 325. Married people don't fight as much during Lent as at other times because they believe in giving up their pleasures. They have to go on to work and study at school with little scraps. This is why you don't see so many black eyes on Easter. To refrain from beating some wives is too great a sacrifice to ask of any man and he has to break the fast. The Week's Best Story BY RALPH MATTHEWS In the old country the fourth Sunday is known as Mid-Lent or "Mothering Day." Servant girls are encouraged to purchase a book to visit their mothers. We don't observe that much now because young girls are not allowed to visit the joints where their mothers hang out. The custom was to carry a press of today wouldn't know what to carry, even one of her dresses would be too long for mother. A pack of cigarettes or a hip flask would be appropriate. Queen Elizabeth used to fine the Queen 20 shillings if they killed beef during Lent. In these days of cold storages the beef you get is liable to kill you. Lent is a great occasion. We don sack cloth and put ashes on our head, then lay them on our heads. Then we wonder why Heaven isn't overcrowded. Amos Hokum THE CHANGE I used to visit the barber shop and perhaps would do it yet, but I never had no more the old Police Gazette. And now the women have taken the place I very seldom go to, but I do a daze, and yet my whiskers grow. A dumb Isaan is a bozo who thinks a wench is something that is used to tighten nuts with.

"I am sorry for the words I spoke last night; Your sending me the flowers proved you were right Kelly Miller Says The Texas Supreme Court decision usheres a new era of political hope for the Negro if the statesmanship and good sense are forthcoming to take advantage of it. The real question growing out of the decision is whether white men in Texas and the other southern states will undertake to organize a new party with broad principles appealing to all citizens, whose rights have been guaranteed and confirmed. I attended the session of the Supreme Court on Monday last to hear the argument of the New Orleans segregation case. While I wrote the case, I was for it. I was more than doubly repaid by the privilege of listening to Judge Oliver Wendell Holmes, the venerable jurist of eighty-six years, deliver the judgment. Court in the Texas primary case. The decision was clear cut and decisive from beginning to end. judge oblates delivered the manifold arguments in Court, including Judge McReynolds of Texas who was attorney general in President's cabinet. It was of significant importance that the last three alternative decisions of that August tribunal touching the constitutional framework of the court unanimous concurrence. Democratic and Republican judges, those from the North and those from the South, were embroiled in the grand father clauses of state constitutions, in denying to the state or the municipal, the creature of the state, the property on the ground of race and color, and now in denying to any state or its agent to make dissonance in the privilege of the franchise. We might also note in passing that the covariant intending to restrict such use of property did not prove the validity of the proval of the Supreme Court, although there was unanimous agreement that the case as brought by David will court the federal jurisdiction. May not this remarkable unanimity indicate that the North and South have come to a mind on the subject? Does it indicate that they deliberate upon race issues in the united council? Does it indicate a liberalized attitude or merely a agreement with the Negro his rights in the abstract with the reserved understanding that they will not be clothed with property? Does the latter clauses were neglected by the Supreme Court more than ten years ago, and yet it is to be doubted whether single addition to the law actually voted on basis of this decision. The segregation decision of 1916 has not had the slightest diminutive effect upon segregation. Will the Negro in Texas and elsewhere actually participate of this victory? Or will the white victory? Or is it to remain an abstract ethical victory of pure legalism? The case in litigation was a curious one, no longer in Texas with this citizen's vote in the Democratic primary. The members of the Supreme Court sides when they turned aside from the technical legal aspect of the case to engage rightly veto his right to vote in Texas, in a Democratic primary: Who has heard of greater political absurdity? I was in the city of Waco several years ago when a case of character was presented on the first fall of the colored attorney who pushed it to successful issue in the court of first report, only to be overturned. Let it be noted also that this case has absolutely no political advantage to the Grand Old Party, the Negroes erstwhile philosopher, godfather and grandfather of the staged wholly within the confines of the Democratic party. Whatever political advantage comes to the Negroes indirect credit must go to the Negroes' political enemies. But the Democratic party does not need the black man's vote in the South. The negative cause of a positive result The most significant feature of this decision consists in the fact that it is not color, but fundamentally upon citizenship rights. Judge Holmes waived a side of the Fifteenth Amendment, which he decided to issue. The decision fails fairly upon the citizenship guarantee of the Fourteenth Amendment, because the paladium of American life all men regardless of race or color. Under this decision, any citizen in damage against the state or right to vote on equal terms with all other citizens will have a case in damage against the state or right to vote on equal terms with the clear meaning of the Constitution. Thus any Negro in Mississippi or Georgia, who, through his refusal, refused his political rights, bring suit for monetary damage. Thus puts the case in its most favored position, after, if the Negro fails to vote or to gain redress for refusal, it due to his own lack of capacity to avail himself of assured rights. Theodore Roosvelt was the last statesman who brought forth a feasible plan for the Negro to fund education. He hoped to build up a strong opposition party under the leadership of the most courageous local men who believed in the equal rights of men and who possessed courage to give their political faith effective expression. He felt that for the leadership the leadership must fall for the heart in the hands of white men. `His rejection of the leadership of colored men was not because of their color but of their capability to lead a successful political organization which intends to function locally in the South? Of course, the brand of statesmanship played by Howard and Hon. Ben Johnson. They have no intention of functioning locally. Their objective of a Republican organization is the hope to influence national patronage when the Grand Old Party is in power. The Supreme Court Decision Texas Case A Curious One Not Based On Race Or Color Build Strong Opposition Party Of Minor Roll Saturday, Mar, 19, 1927 - roll has great advantage for race. When the colored man finds the race of the court his race in the court of national military. While these national committeeman would not dream of the temerity of nominating a officer, nevertheless no white officer, nevertheless no white officer, can get by without their O. K. This gives great advantage which makes the racial good. But this brand of relationship would never get the race very far in politics. It will never get the race very far in politics. It will never get the race very far in politics. For every Negro to be officer by whom he is to be governed in the community in which he lives. Without this politicalities are practically meaningless. Why is there no competing political organization in the several states of the North? is a purely Negro party desirable? Has the Negra at present the experience, courage, initiative and means to project and sustain such organizations? In Hands Of White Leaders In Maryland, the Negroes are relatively as numerous as they are in Texas, and yet there is a large number of deny or abridge their citizenship. The same thing is true of Delaware, West Virginia, Missouri and Kentucky. But in all of these states the political leadership is the hands of white men. I do not like this, but canor compels. Real Question In Decision The real question growing out of this decision is whether white Texas and the other Southern states will understand to organize a new party with broad principles appealing to all citizens, whose rights have been guaranteed. The only feasible alternative is for the Negro to imitate the Irgent in the present case and vote for the Democratic parties and in the general election, whether the managers want them to or not. There are always two sets of ambitious white men in the South who want their way clear by appealing to Negro voters, the appeal will be shortly forthcoming. Scare Cry I see that Senator Bless has raised the scare cry of Negro domination. If women, with their political inopptitude cannot dominate the Negro who is in the minority, and at the same time is without wealth and experience dominate the whites? Although women in the South serve mainly as political ciphers to give political power to the figures. How much domination do the Negroes in the South have over the Delaware, or West Virginia, or Kentucky or Missouri? With these examples clearly, before us, there is no practical wisdom of making the old scare crow which has been dead for a generation. Decision Ushers In A New Era This decision ushers in a new era of political hope for the Negro, the statesmanship and senses so coming to take advantage of it. It is going to be very interesting to see how the Grand Old Men work against it. It works against their present day plans and policies. The party of Lincoln and Gr.nt Mussolini there was resistance on part of the Democrats that the federal government had jurisdiction in primary elections. This decision hits their eyes. The two old parties have swapped places. The present attitude of the Democrats favors the party they do not intend to do to. The honest minded student of political history is simply amused at the sinister ethics of the party they do not intend to open up long acquiesced in subversion of the Constitution by Southern Democrats upon alleged corruption in northern states. Or as the New York Times puts it: "If you do not permit us to buy our elections, we must be punished." The Supreme Court has beaten them to it. By the strange trony of events, the Negro's traditional political enemy may unwilling prove to be his political salvator.

Particularly was this true of the Sunday School. The pastor's subject, "The Color of a Generous Deed," was received in rap, attention and many truths developed, finally reached the mark. The applicants to baptism responded during the day. In the evening, the first discus-sion of the series of sermons, under the general subject, "The Sec-ond Coming of Christ" occupied the attention of the audience. In it Dr. Over laid a broad foundation in the Scriptures for the subsequent development of this very important Bible doctrine. The increased attendance and the manifest enthusiasm were evidences that many are deeply concerned and purposed to follow the series to, conclusion. The next Sunday evening the topic is "The Sizes of the Times". Announcements were made positive to the coming Easter Evangel, with preaching services during the Passion-week. A serious and earnest effort is being made to reach the souls of men. A number of cottage prayer meetings are being organized through which the pastor hopes to quicken the interest in the large group of his following. The annual spring special offering is to be set at the close of the month of April. At that time it is hoped that every legal member of Union will put himself on record with a considerable burden to bear during our environment plans. The large Rely of last Fall gave unmistakable evidence that Union is deeply concerned about its future. Local Talent At Saturday Club Local Talent At Saturday Club In conjunction with the usual program of The AFIRO Employees Saturday Afternoon Club, Misses Joanita and Virginia Jackson, showed great promise as dramatic artists, in their recital, having all the marks of the talented Gish sisters, of screen fame. Miss Joniace recited "The Death of Minnehaha" and her sister, Virginia, "William Tell." From the time the title was announced to the last word, the girls' dramatic education was superb. Their pronunciation is explicit and distinct and their pronunciation is emphatic. Miss Ethel Waters, sojourn, was strenuous applauded for her rendition of two love songs.

A SERIES OF FOUR SUNDAY NIGHT SERMONS ON "THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST" Next Sunday Night: "SIGNS OF THE TIMES" By the Rev. D. L. Miller, pastor of Union Wesley C. M. E. Church "THE TWENTIETH CENTURY MINISTER" In these days we very often meet the statement that preaching is out of date, and that other callings in life are as important. The task of saving the world world from sin, lifting it up toward God and bringing in the universal reign of righteousness, is the greatest work that can be done by the "foothillness preaching"—net by "tooilish preaching." The rainmaker is called to preach the Gospel. This is his first business, and everything else should be subordinate to that high mission. He business of preaching is to preach to the minds, the best that is in a man, the best of heart, brain, and body. The pulpit is the preacher's throne, and he should never surrender that throne or engage in any work that causes him to suffer. (Gosset) In second place, I could not do anything but preach. The ministry of to-day is engaged in running around doing nearly everything that is to be done in the church, and wasting precious time that is to be used in the church and study, preparing a mess,气ge for burdened men and women who look up to them from the pew on Sunday morning, anxious for the Word of Life. The preacher must preach, and to preach, and study, think, meditate, and pray. The Twentieth Century is one of the most difficult and trying times in which to be a preacher of the Gospel. Preaching was a precious business when the English were told with passion and power the story of despair and His love. But it was such a thrilling experience and singleness of heart that the dangers of proclaiming the Gospel were that compared with the tilted hearts of all workmen. The old circuit riders were stalwart and sturdy men, because they had a small-sized job. They had thousands of hardships, hardships, and received a pittance for authority, for the people reverenced and heard them. They were successful pioneers in one of the grandest eras of the tides of time. And further more, they were not harnessed and perplexed with a thousand mugging duties or burdened with the resources in the multitudinous demands of second things. Bethel A.M.E.

Haroli Stepeau, Pastor. 3 Page Seventeen CHICAGO wrath; but grievous words James Collins, a member of What- SERMON Those old mec: could always put first things first, and did it. The modern preacher is oft n compelled to put first things, second, and so on. The modern preacher is better better paid than preachers of other days were, but it makes no real difference in the end, for it has no real difference in the end, for he cannot save much more. He has more convenience, but oftentimes some of these very convenience help to destroy the simple life and add to his complex themes and spiritual vitating philosophies. The modern preacher is, like Martin, troubled over many things and cannot, like Mary choose the good part. He is so busy serving tables by compulsion that he cannot give himself diligently to prayer and the ministry of the church and the ministry of his life a maze. Too often he is a jumping jack for t' whims of shallow-patted and washed-out members of certain congregations. If he does not lilt freely, he is severely criticised, ar. the finances of the church, the book pasted in his life, the book preach like a combination arch-angel and modern saleman and be certain to stop twenty minutes, he is not a popular preacher. If he is not a good mixer, a good organizer, a good visitor, a nice gentleman, a well informed man, possessing tact and good judgment, and within a populated society he does not measure up to the modern standard and they are ready for a new preacher. --- Modern congregations are calling loudly for pastors who can preach, but some of them allow him only two minutes in which they can preach, and do they really think that any man can preach a great sermon in twenty minutes. A preacher may make a good popular talk on a text in twenty minutes but not unfold its theme in a worthy way in twenty minutes. The trouble is the fact that so many church members to-day want to be entertained in church. They are entertained at the movies, the ball game, the parties, the joy rides, and they assume that they ought to be entertained in church. As in many throughly laymen are famulating the fact that we are not making great preachers to-day. But wouldn't the average congregation get tired before a Spurgeon, Moody, Brecher, beckoned the end of a great sermon? Our job is to so bring to bear this eternal Gospel on the changing conditions of our time so that his Kingdom may come near and his will be done more fully on earth. THE CHURCH OF ST.

Don't Ask For "The Best" A Warning To Housewives Buying Merchandise By Than B By JUSTINE MANSFIELD In "Success Magazine" A woman of my acquaintance is one of our "professionally aristocratic" people, as a friend of mine described her. She dislikes to "shop around" "Give me the best," she says to the sale-clerk, with an air of superiority. She get, what? The worst, or se- cond grade, almost every time. We were one day in a grocery store placing our orders. I want some damned fruits and vegetables—peas, peaches, pineapple. The best, please," she commanded im- periously. "Very well, madam," said the clerk and I saw him write down "Sum Brand." I smiled. Sum Brand is that store's own premium branded trade label on goods, and misses no opportunity to sell that brand to its customers when no other brand is called for. It makes 33 per cent to 40 per cent profit, whereas the store only 15 per cent profit. "Sum Brand" is a bad fourth rank with other brands, in quality. I calculated that my friend paid exactly $4.90 too much for the order she gave, but she sold it and getting the best, she pays the price of the truly best, but does not get the best quality. She makes a dreary mistake in not knowing precisely what brand, and what specific, tried qualities she wants, and is working built on reputation, and currying an advertised trademark. Men as well as women fall into this psychological trap. Men are, as a matter of fact, more often the victim to proportion to their shopping, than women. "Do you want the best?" the clerk asks, and your sheep-like man hems a little and answers, "Yes, the best." The clerk pulls out a shirt worth perhaps $2.50 and sells it to him for $3.00. He then high-dresses a shirt worth $3.50 which he offers at $5.00 or $6.00. In shoe buying the same was once true! Men would be asked if they wanted a really good shoe, the best, and of course, the number dressed in full hearing of other customers, said yes. Then a shoe worth Mrs. Jas. H. Dennis James H.

Who Are Accustomed To the "Best" Label Rather By Quality $10.00 would be sold for $12.00 or $15.00—or a $6.50 shoe at $8.00. The store spoiled this game, in both men's shoes and men's hats, although the game is still practiced by some of the fancy shops in large cities. Whenever I hear some person say to the clerk: "Give me the host," I smile. Not because I think it, altogether funny, either. For as one who has been trained in merchandise, I know that "a lost" is so common "wost," is positively pathetic how people fool themselves, or let themselves be fooled by this. Not long ago I happened to be behind the selling scenes of a fairly good-sized department store. I was making a study of silk underwear sales for a manufacturer and therefore took a temporary job as salesman on the permanent job assistant; they have in stock for sale. "The merchandise in this section," she explained, "is the standard $1.25 quality; here you will find the $2.55 quality; here are the $3.55; the $4.55; the continued, pointing to the huge seethe almost as large as all the others put together, are the "l.y.s." "What are they?" I asked, not knowing saleship jargon. "They are last year's merchandise," she said, "they must try to dispose of them, if you want care. We get an extra commission if we sell all of them." "But," I asked, "aren't they a trifle shop anyway? Who buys that kind of stuff anyway?" "You surprised?" she answered smilingly, "Some people come in and don't know themselves what they want. All they say is they want the best we got, but they don't care much, they don't understand merchandise. If you get one like that, you can get rid of a good many l.y.s." You can mean to say that a store with as good a reputation as would do such a thing." I asked, in anguage. "You don't know the mih of it, dearie, my informant went on, confidentially, you'd be surprised what he gets with in informal meetings. In the ladies' clock and salts the saladshy knows in a minute if a customer's a good thing for disposing of old stock. It's the customer's responsibility, must have the best, that gets stunz nine times out of ten. Why every department in this store has an LJ section, and there are plenty of foolish customers who help us make extra buttons." (quoted in department store jargon, means quarters. Mr John H.

For instance, some women go to the corner butcher's and buy a pound of "the best" steak and pay 60 cents a pound; whereas the knowing woman will get for 45 cents a better steak she has insisted to say to stay — I want a pound of steak from — and then she will name the precise cut that she wants. Any butcher can supply a chart showing the cuts. All women have to do is learn about them. There is even a difference in beef—some of it is cow meat. Then there is the charging of a premium for what is actually no better than goods sold at a lower price. I know a manufacturer of silk stockings who has a number of outlet stores throughout the various cities; I know a manufacturer of line" consisted of four grades of hose. "I make a quality selling for $1.25, $1.85, $2.55 and the fourth—well, we can never tell how much well we'll get for them!" he hulled. "Do you mean to say you take what you get?" I asked, cager to be silent. "No, we sell them to people who pay what we ask for them, which is usually a pretty stiff price." "Just how do you mean? I asked, 'Well, if a woman comes into our store and buys a pair of hose at $1.25 she gets her money's worth; the same is realized or the $1.85 and $2.55. There's really no difference than these. But when she says: 'I want something better, then we bring out our fourth grade, which are slightly different, but really no better than the $2.85 standard grade. We charge them $2.50 and sometimes $4.00 for a pair. You see," continued the man, "if a preacher persists in something better than the highest grade made, then we want to want of wanting to get something that costs more. If she's so keen to part with more of her husband's hard earned dough, who are to stop her? Some people simply don't like themselves if they pay too little money for their merchandise; they positively yearn to be in the class that boasts that it pays extravagant prices. It's one of the reasons we oversee their prosperity. If they insist on paying for their little game why should we worry?"

"Money Back if Not Satisfied." Baltimore, Md. GOOD MORNING JUDGE The Afro Court Reporter It is rather costly to have one wife on the inside and another woman and children on the outside, Eugene Butler, 506 Greenwillow street, learned to his sorrow Tuesday. His wife did not know of the outside conditions, until Butler failed to pay his weekly allony for the support of the two children of Maggie Jones, 19 North Exeter street, when she came to his home to collect. This was the very thing that Butler had done so successfully for some time, so when Miss Jones called and spilled the beans, he was mighty angry. In order to prove to his wife that the aggrievances of Miss Jones were untrue and that he didn't care anyhow, butler beat her up. This get him into deeper water and after a hearing in the Northwestern the whole matter was brought to light for the benefit of the wife and other listeners in the court room. Butler, in the court, Miss Jones told the Magistrate, to pay her so much a week for the support of the two children. "And this court," said the Magistrate, "is going to order him to pay $25 for inflicting that black eye you have." Benjamin Handy, 926 Shields Ally, was arrested on the complaint of Mrs. Mollie Kennedy, 1039 Angle Avenue, who claimed that he annoyed her Wednesday. "Your Honor," declared Mrs. Kennedy in the Northwestern, "have been knowing this man for several years. It seems I just can't get rid of him. I work at Union Station, and he comes around there while I am working. I make all kind of trouble for me." "When was it, last one, he annoyed you?" asked the Judge. "It was Monday. Your Honor. He was fussing with me, and I would have had him locked up on the stairs." "Why didn't you?" demanded the Magistrate. "Because when he was a policeman coming, he went towards the ticket office and said he was going to Gettysburg, and I thought that was a good way to get rid of him. He was more than he came right back with more of his devilment." "Handy," said the Judge, "I am going to let you off this time, but the next time you come in this court, you are not going to Gettysburg, but I am going to send you to fail. Birdie Fason, 100$ 'Pench Alley' and Willie Jones, of the same address, have stuck together through thick and thin that they have been married. That they have married in the Southern police station thinned them out Monday morning, when he sent Willis back to jail for six days, hardly 24 hours after he and Birdie had been dismissed. On the Tuesday night both Willis and Birdie were arrested on a wild party which they attended, and were fined $6.45, going to jail in default. Sunday they again breathed the free air and proceeded to celebrate. And noisy did the celebration become that before nightfall Willie and Birdie again found themselves sitting on the inside looking through the bars. At the hearing Monday morning, Williams was fined another $8.45, and again Birdie was dismissed. Elizabeth White, 46, 521 McCullah Jones, 42, Russell St., Mt.

She is in memory And will forevermore. By her MOTHER, FATHER, AND AUNT. WARFIELD-Entered into rest, Monday, March 14, 1927. WILLIAM G. WARFIELD beloved father of dwarf Warfield-Johnson and grand father of J. Johnson. Before my eyes he faded Growing weaker every day Doing all we could to soothe him Until God told us to sorrow Yes, we spoke in time of sorrow He His blessed peace imparts in the desolated Homestead He will comfort broken hearts. O God, what weight of sorrow Must I the lonely one bear; A dead voice will cry And only his vatican chair. The hands that did so much for me Now helpless they lay, God know they worked continuously But they are gone every day. More and more day I miss him And may think my wound is healed But they little know the sorrow That lies within my heart concealed. I miss him: Oh! what has I must bear; The lonely home, the still voice, The silent church, the vacant chair He cherry smile, a pleasant way. A helping hand to all he knew He was so kind, so generous and true On earth he nobly did his best. Grant him, Jesus, Heavenly rest Call Vernon 6016 VERNON 1410 E THERE When Richard was taken from us all; But never will those who loved you forget the day you were laid to rest. Nobody knows our grief. Many silent tears are shed; When others are lost in sleep. By his loving MOTHER. It's lonely here with out you is way away, away the way. For life is not the same. Since you were taken away. By his loving brother, GEORGE. CARD OF THANKS Mrs. Elva Birchrete and Mr. William Wallace wish to thank Rev. S. H. Brown of Ashbury M. E. church, and Rev. E.
