In the letter McMilan declared that the virtues of President Peacock are painfully few and mechanic.

The president is president are numbness and fundamental. He is ignorant and out of sympathy with the minds, needs and feelings of youth; he is a weakling, he is a weakling, he loses prestige; he is stranded of the Negro Baptist, test he be criticized.
De Of Theological Department
De Of Theological department says McMilan, is likewise unsuited for his office because he has never had training in a modern theological department. He has been trained in rural churches, living in an environment of ignorance without returning to refresh his mind with new methods.
Methods are described as teaching students verses of the Bible one by one, then sending them out equipped to preach. McMilan describes him as a defective.

"SKIRTED" MEN FEATURED N.Y.'S BIGGEST PARTY
Society Benefit Event Gave Men Chance To Show Shape
SIXTY PER CENT OF ATTENDANCE WHITE
Public Censure Follows Vis-
To Harlem
NEW YORK.—(By Harry B. Webber)—Greenwich Village came to Harlem and this week Harlem woke up to find itself immersed in criticism.
The event was a benefit costume ball sponsored by Mr. and Mrs. James Harris, for Port Valley Industrial School, Georgia, at the Renaissance Casino, Thursday night.
Objection to the party came from two sources, first, that 60 per cent of the attendance was white, and of some of the citizens of Bohemian Greenwich Village, and second, that a group of abnormal men came dressed as a goat.
The affair is of the type condemned as typical of New York when it was described in Van Vechten's book, "Nigger Heaven."
In fact Van Vechten was present at the affair. So was Walter White and Countie Cullen and Dr. Hubert Harrison, who undermined it. The event it was first published.
Other prominent ones who made merry with the group are group members, Mrs. Willy Wilson, Mr. Edward Lowry, Mr. Charles Craft, Mr. Al Delavey, Mr. Gusca Mascio, Mr. Melvin Charlton, Dr. and Mrs. Binga Desmond, Mr. and Mrs. James Weldon Johnson, Mr. and Mrs. James Thomas, Mr. and Mrs. James Harris, Mr. Floyd Snelson, Dr. and Mr. J. Edward Lowrie, Mr. Vertner Thomas, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Thompson, Dr. Edgar Perkinson, prominent members of the Vagabond Club, an organization of men and many others.
Sixty per cent of the attendance was white. Tickets had been an order of one hundred. No one was admitted without a ticket. The tickets cost one dollar if bought with two dollars if bought at the door. Not everyone could secure a ticket.
Some of the costumes worn by the men from the village, like their exhibitions of the finest of feminine attire. One man displayed an expensive headpiece of gehine ostrich plumes with a gown to master the look of a lace dress, with the best of female grace and seemed master of all the small arts of conversation and manner of the most feminine of women. The costumes worn by the men were more than those on keeping with the costume ball, but all the garments worn by the group of men were feminine garments, whether pictures or pictures of the group were photographed, showing the men in the most original poses and displaying their costumes to advantage. Two of the men played about the hall. Others arrived up and down the avenue before the performance.

A statement defining the position of the board in dealing with such cases was issued by Mr. Carusl. It had the approval of the board. It is as follows:
"The Board of Education does not act as a court, but is obliged to use its unbiased discretion upon the best evidence which it can be able to secure and in dealing of serious doubt that doubt in favor of the children.
Menard Case
The Board of Education, however has not always been involved in the alleged misconduct on the part of the teachers which have recently been disposed of
In the case of Willis M. Menard, a teacher in the Dunbar High School, who was charged with assault on a student, the Coleman, a board member, the Board reinstalled Mr. Menard when the United States attorney for the District of Columbia, advised it that a criminal prosecution of Mr. Menard could not be sustained in the absence of the time that had elapsed between the alleged assault and the filing of a complaint, the reluctance of Miss Coleman to testify against Mr. Menard and the questioning by Mr. Menard which was obtained by threats.

Collective Action Without Rhetoric Will Solve Howard University Endowment Problems Which Seem Intricate. All Contributions There Before Commencement Day
HOWAD, DEAR OLD HOWARD
BY ALUMNUS
Every big colored university in the college system has the S. O. S. signal for needed funds.
This universal cry for funds strengthens the writer's oft-repeated assertion that the big colored universities are the best schools the writer's appeal this year is for Howard University, he frankly acknowledges the worthiness of the appeals of sister universities. Howard has no monopoly on university poverty, but the appeal of this column is for
To avoid the poverty of these colored universities is no disgrace. ETTED universities is no disgrace. We should avoid it. Universities are no different from other enterprises. They need funds to perpetuate their work, and we are not as uncertain as the glory of an April day. It seems almost heartless on the part of colored people to wink at the situation, when it is not the situation. The worth of the colored population would endow in turn these worthy institutions.
REACHING SLOWLY
For over a month, the writer has been presented with facts to the colored population of this country to give just ONE DOLAR a piece for the Endowment Fund to be presented to Howard Dale when the first colored president will be inaugurated. The news of this effort is slowly reaching the people. The response is cheerful and prophetic of success.
The aim of this campaign is to arouse sufficient race pride to do collectively what no individual may be able to do singly. We have to accumulate wealth, it has not yet produced millionaires who can undertake to endow Howard University out of their own coffers. Even if they could, the present project is the way of endowing Howard university.

SERIOUS QUESTION
If the University does not merit the negligible contribution of just ONE DOLLAR from each member of the race who possesses at least one position, the right that such an institution has to exist for a palpably indifferent people. Gratitude is the mother of all virtues, and the best way to treat them is to have carried University thus far is to provide the necessary funds for its perpetuation. Old friends are dropping off, and many of those remaining feel precisely as the writer
AGED FLOQUENCE
The colored people of America have always been ready to mount the platform to indulge in aged eloquence and to be cautious about sticking their hands into their pocket for a nickel to show a more tangible force. Less rhetoric is less effort to shoot off volleys of words than to give an unostentatious dollar. Less rhetoric and more collective accents that seem intricate at first sight.
In a recent address, Mr. Lloyd Garrison of New York, lauded the Negro race for its progress. He said the thousand owned their homes; that they opera-

He also pointed to the intellectual advancement of the Negro, mentioning composers, ballad writers, poets and novelists, and that there was a thousand Negro graduates of colleges in America.
Every Negro ought to feel justly proud of such a record. Thanks to Mr. Garrison for his churning, the big St. Louis gathering! Though the writer not want to bury a sore when he ought to bring the plaster, he much such a wonderful report the fundamental requisite or racial greatness is lacking.

According to Mr. Garrison's statement, the number of colored undergraduate students more than five years ago. An examination of these figures is very likely to show that about four-fifths of the total membership will be found in Negro colleges.

Gradually, the colored institutions of higher learning are taking over the education of their class. That every step be taken to place such institutions as Howard, Fisk, Atlanta, Morehouse, Morgan, Shaw and a long list of others beyond financial want, in order that they may function most effectively.
It goes without saying that the Negro is still getting a raw deal in the most vaunted barrier democracy that that man has ever faced. It persists that every race is the architect of its own fortunes. If it does those fundamental things requisite for a successful recognition are assured. If it neglects those vital things, it must expect

DEEDS NOT WORDS
A race must be measured by deeds, not words. It must win recognition and not beg for it. It must educate its offspring and not put the job off against unwilling factors. It must not build dancehalls and theatres before it has first erected school-houses and churches, brating and banqueting before the noise is justifiable. Recently, a most wonderful article came out on a thriving Negro enterprise, only to be press of the failure of the concern.

The chance to make Howard University most efficient, through the gift of ONE DOLLAR, ought to be peal to every reader of this column, who in turn should spread the apache with words filled with names, Men and women foremost in movements of race advancement ought to be foremost in showing the way to others. There are many misgiving. Support should be spontaneous and hearty. If colored people do not care to support their own institutions, why should they expect others? EARTHQUAKE
Is Howard University precious enough to the race to be perpetuated beyond embarrassment? Are the colored people of America interested in maintaining their own sons and daughters who manage the interest in the form of ONE DOLLAR? Have the colored people of America enough pride and spirit of independence to maintain, with their own sons and daughters, with out yearly hundreds of young folks whose services must be employed by the race? Will it take an earthquake to strike Howard University before their neglected opportunity?
These are but few of the serious queries that ought to cause thought in the minds of one of the ONE DOLLAR from each race-loving Negro in America to be sent in the form of a check or money order, or the one that was bailed to the office of the AFRO-AMERICAN. Why delay your contribution to this worthy cause?
REAL WORTH
The real worth of Howard Universities in America is served to the colored people in service to the colored people invested in Howard returns with interest to the people the institution serves. ONE DOLLAR or Howard's one dollar more one more dollar. PLEASE send just ONE DOLLAR for your University.

For an American, the prices are low, being about a third of that of New York City. A good room can be had for four dollars, and an excellent meal in a good restaurant for sixty cents. Wages are much lower than in American. Both English and Spanish money are used, and the cents of the shops are in the two languages.

SAYS HUSBAND RENTS OUT HER HOUSE
DIVORCE SUIT ALLEGES
HE REFUSES ACCOUNTING
Habits Changed
WASHINGTON, D. C.—Charging cruelly, Mrs. Hattie L. Sewell, 151 Rhode Island avenue, northwest, filed suit last Monday for a limited divorce from her husband, Samuel F. Sewell, 1720 Third Street, northwest.
In her bill of complaint Mrs. Sewell alleges that her husband, on May 7, 1926, after throwing an earthenware jar at her, ran upstairs in their home to get his automatic army revolver, threatening to kill her and "christen" the newly installed electric chair in the District Court. She ran from the house, she says, and had her husband arrested. The next in police court he was put on his personal bond to refrain from molesting her.
Mrs. Sewell claims that she is the owner of 1720 Thirteenth street, N.W., and the furniture, fixtures and personal effects in the house. He husband she says, "I have those tables against her will. He is renting rooms to 7 persons at least, she states, but he has refused to make an accounting to her of the rents.
The couple was married in Tucson, Arizona, December 14, 1914. They came when Mr. Sewell was asked to Camp Mende, Maryland, for the training of colored officers. After his honorable discharge from the army in the latter part of 1918, Mrs. Sewell says, her husband began to drink excessively and from time to time, he was sent to Mr. Mende, 1925, he abused and mistreated her.
She asks the court to require her husband to make an accounting of all monies collected from tenants of her property at 1720 Thirteenth street, northwest. She also asks or temporarily to pay the rent and permanent injunction restraining her husband from interfering with or molesting her, and for a limited divorce.

"JOHN HENRY" DIXIE WORKER'S GREAT HERO
Mythical Railroad Laborer Could Outdrill A Steam Drill
STRENUOUS EXERTION CAUSED HIS DEATH
Dozen Sections of The South Claim Him As Nature's Son
HAMPTON, Va. — "John Henry" is the best known song of the south k—EE; song of the South declares Guy B. Johnson wriing in the current issue of the Southern Workman."
"It does not celebrate the deeds of a reckless gambler or Iobo or criminal. Its hero was not that kind of a man. He worked himself to death. The average Negro worker in the South can tell you more about John Henry than he can about Booker T Washington or Major Moton." John Henry is to him an ideal, a pattern, a martyr. He is the subject of a thousand songs and stories, and his name has spawned over a large portion of American States. Over John Henry ever really lived or not, whichever and when the song started, I cannot say, but the legend is one of great beauty and deserves to be ranked with the best that America has produced.
"John Henry, so the legend goes was a powerful steel-driving man he worked in mines and tunnels and other places where blasting had to be done. (A steel driver, it should be explained, drills a hole in a rock so that it can be inserted. He strikes a piece of steel on the head, and between strokes this piece of steel, known as a drill, is given a slight shift or turn by another worker, usually called the 'shaker.' Now John Henry will drill a hole than five or six ordinary men, and his fame spread far and wide.
When the steam drill was invented, John Henry took it as something of an insult to his prowess, and boasted that he could out-drill a new-fanned thing, a railway. He was working upon a steam drill on the job he got his chance to make good his boast. He declared that he was ready to beat the machine, saying: 'Befo' I beaten by yo' steam
"I'd die wid de hammer in my han'.
"A big wager was had between
John Henry's "capit" and the boss
of the steam-drill crew, and the boss
was on his way to drive as he
driven before. He won.
But at the last stroke of his hammer
he fell dead.
"This is the average version of the
story. Of course one never lears
two stories, but John Hen-
nessy can easily alike."
There is apparently no limit to the number of variations or the different points related in the ballad. John Henry must have worked in every tunnel constructed by Southern railways in the last forty years. He must have worked in every mine in the South. He did seven sections of the tunnel him as their native son, and every locality has its version of the song.
"Besides the ballad proper there are countless work songs which Negro workers have made in memory of their hero. Picture a song singing, at the end of each line, and bringing down ... hammer with a grunt."
"Then, too, there are dozens of stories about John Henr" Some of these attribute superhuman powers to the steel driver. For instance, one Negro told me that John Henry "could drill through solid rock from Rome to Decatur (Georgia) in one day."
MACON, Ga.—Frank Barge, a central of Georgia railroad fireman, was killed when a passenger and a freight train crashed in a headon collision thirteen miles south of Macon last week. Barge stuck to his engine, which left the track, and was buried in the wreckage.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Lucus Bush, will have the distinctive of occupying a new jail which he used to have constructed in South dacksonville. Bush was arrested in 1925, but escaped through the walls of the old jail, causing the county authorities to build a new one. He was again arrested last week.

VENTURA, CALIF.—(P.
C. N. B.)—Kneeling, with his right arm up over the top of the stove, and his head hanging down touching the floor of his cave,
"The Black Hermit of the Rincon," about 60 years of age who resided in a cave about 3 miles from Ventura for the miles from 6 or 7 years, was recently found dead by a party of residents who were climbing the hills.
Man Of Mystery
Coming to Ventura years ago from Modesto, Calif., where he claimed to have lived 8 years, "The Black Hermit" took up his abode in a hill side cave. Sheepherders employed by the Hobson Company dropped in on him periodically in an effort to find out something more descriptive, however, and no one was ever able to learn his name or history.
His cave, a virtual jungle of old cans, glass and rags, contained many old calendars, the backs of which he made new calendars in the months in which he wielded the months and crossing out the days as each passed. The last day crossed out was Nov. 8, 1926; the day he thought to have died, "God on his paper in the cave the hermit had printed, 'God damn the day I was born in the way.'" Poem To Siki
The "Black Hermit" was a man of fair education as is shown by his paper in the cave, was about Battling Siki, the Senegalese, following the pugilists' tragic death.
Though officers made a thorough search, anything which would lead to the hermit's identity.

KU KLUX CASE UP IN COURT OF APPEALS
Asbury Church Seeks To Save Fugitive From Alabama
By Wm. H. Ferris
WASHINGTON—The Blevins Extradition case which attained considerable attention last winter, will within a very few weeks come up before the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia. William H. Richards and Sylvester L. McLaurin, attorneys, have handled the case. For three months they have held up the extradition of James Blevins to Birmingham.
The Klan
The latter part of last December Mr. James Blevins fled to Washington, D. C., claiming that he was driven out of Birmingham, Alabama, by him a note from the Klan, warning him and giving him five days to pay his debts and straighten out his affairs or to leave.
The invitation to leave was so pressing that the Mr. Blevin had. But he seems that his Caucasian friends had such love for him that they missed him and wanted him back. They located him in Washington and telegraphed Edwin H. Hesse, the Washington Superintendent of Police, to arrest him and give him for torture for assault, with intent to kill.
Four new questions have been raised, namely, that the indictment was found by a grand jury from which all Negroes were excluded "designedly, systematically and as a part of the racial policy of the State of Alabama, the state of Alabama, the state of Alabama and its Courts are so dominated by the Ku Klux Klan that a Negro, who is indicted for assault upon a w w i e man, can be held in the state of Alabama. Fourthly, the securing of a writ of Habeas Corpus, the causing of the release of the prisoner and the making of an appeal to the Court of Appeals when the state of Habeas Corpus was itself a notable achievement.
The case may "mately be carried" Supreme Court of the United States.

Declaring that the Democratic administration was not sincere in its favor of the repeal of the jim crow laws, Senator Harry O. Levin has taken exceptions to the statement made to that effect in last week's AFROCaucus meeting to Mr. Levin, the judicial proceedings committee of the Senate was composed of 11 members, eight Democrats and three Republicans, and if the administration had been sincere the objection of Senator Colgan would have meant nothing. If you have followed the proceedings of the Legislature," he said, "you will find that on every occasion Senator Colgan opposed the administration but was always voted down.ocratic candidate for mayor are
"The administration and the Democratic candidate for mayor are not entitled to any vote but on the contrary we deserve censure and reprimand, for failing to repeal the law.
"Leaders close to Governor Ritchie and William Curran gave assurance that the measure had their sincere support and the judiciary committee mustered sufficient votes to report the bill favorably, but it was on the part of the governor to carry the fight on the floor and make it a racial issue convinced them that it was best to drop the measure for the present."

PROF.S' VIEWS ON RACE EQUALITY CAUSED OUSTER
CHEYNEY, Pa.-A wave of protest has gone up throughout the state as a result of the dismissal of Dr. Robert T. Kerlin, head of the department of English of the State Normal School, Cheyney believes his views on race relations.
Dr. Kerlin has made a statement, in which he declares he will carry his fight to the country. He charges the action of the Board to agitation against his personal opinions and has asked the Board to Andrew Thomas Smith, white, that he was considered unfit because of his over emphasis of social amalgamation and attitude toward socialism.
Dr. Kerlin has been at the Westchester Normal School for five years. He is a doctor of philosophy from Yale and taught eleven years at the Virginia Military Institute. He was a graduate of the University because of his pronounced views on justice and equality of citizenship.
Miss Isabel Darlington, chairman of the committee on instruction of the Board of Trustees of the State Normal School, is credited with saying on one occasion, that she did not like Prof. Kerlin because it was too friendly with Negroes. It is said she seemed over excited when it was learned that Dr. Kerlin had entertained at his home Leslie Pinkney Hill, the principal of the Normal School for Colored Teachers at Cheyney.

JUDGE DECLINES TO
OUST HOME OWNERS
Capital's Segregation War
Must Be Settled By Court
Of Appeals
WHITES ASKED AN
IMMEDIATE OUSTER
Defendants To Occupy Until Upper Court Passes Upon Legality Of Deeds
WASHINGTON, D. C.—Both sides in the Capital's residential segregation war are fighting for immediate possession of the houses which colc 1 persons are enjoined from owning or occupying. The white property owners in the vicinity of First and Adams streets, northwest, want the court to oust immediately the colored residents in premises No. 2238 First street and No. 141 Adams street, northwest. Colored residents occupying these premises are seeking to remain in possession and occupancy until the Court of Appeals has passed upon the legality of the restrictive covenant in the deeds to property in this section. Judge Declines To Decide
After hearing arguments last Monday upon the question of whether or not superseadeas bonds should be accepted and the colored residents permitted to remain in possession and occupancy of the property, Appeal, Justice Wendell A. Stafford declined to decide the question and advised Attorneys William E. Leahy, George E. C. Hayes and Ernest J. Davis, representing the colored residents, to file their application for superseadeas bonds with the Court of Appeals.
One injunction sets aside a deed dated November 23, 1926, conveying No. 141 Adams street, northwest, from Isadore and Rebecca Young to Maggie Davis and Amanda Butler, who are ordered to vacate.
The other injunction declares void a deed dated March 5, 1927, conveying Thomas A. Grier to Henry A. and Alyce N. Cornish, who are also ordered to vacate.
These defendants will continue to occupy these these cases. The court has passed upon the question of granting superseeds bonds, which will keeë the injunctions from becoming effective upon the curture of appeals has passed upon the question.

PETER B.
This is Holy Week. — a week counted to be both sacred and significant to thousands and thousands of followers of the religion and to those greatest truth on earth, or the greatest lie.
The words in quotation marks are the name of the rector of Emmanuel Church, who for the past five Thursdays, has been conducting a Lenten Bible Class at St. James Episcopal Church. Attending this class, who have listened week after week to these lectures, know beyond a shadow of doubt, what Dr. Birekhead's positive assurance, and believe that the Christian religion is indeed "the greatest truth on earth."
Christ In Picture
But Christ in Picture, in addition carried away a most strikingly vivid, absolutely ungetgetable picture of the Christ, Dr. Birekhead's clear foreseeing, masterly personality Who is the center of our religion, was both a justification of his own faith and a challenge to the best and noblest within
To the thoughtful mind, the conviction comes that this Christ taught in these lectures is not the Christ of the Christian religion, not the Christ of the 200,000 churches which statistics tell us are in the United States alone. More and more men are repudiating Christianity. Eastern manhood doesn't want our religion. Western attempts to Christianize the orient are being challenged, and the missionary is being asked to prove his faith by practicing what theologians have taught. Painted. The Negro is being taunted for his child-like acceptance of "the white man's God," and some self-styled friend is asking Christianity as a system designed to keep us submissive and to strengthen Anglo-Saxon domination. We are sneeringly told that the white man has taken us at our reputed word, and taken the world to us Jesus.
They say that straws show which way the wind is blowing, and one begins to wonder if these facts don't point to the ground. If they say that that is meant the theological system built up by Western civilization, the kind of religion practiced by self-sufficient, dominineing Nordics, the kind of thing that is housed this 200,000 square feet I DON'T CARE. HOW QUICKLY THE DECLINE IS ACCOMPLISHED.
I Don't Care
I don't care how quickly the world comes to a realization that Christianity and Jesus are not necessary, but it is possible to have Jesus and yet discard the "blocked-off, rigid, ecclesiastical and logical" system that we have built up around him. And I don't care how quickly the world proceeds to act upon this realization. The world comes back to the real meaning of a Christian, comes back to the conviction that essential Christianity is catching the spirit of Jesus in this life. The fact of the matter is that Christianity has lost Christ. What we have now Christian is at this season of the year when 200,000 churches are holding services commemorative of the risen Jesus, it is worth knowing how much of it all means to us.
It is an extremely significant fact that over in India there is growing up what is called a Christ-cult, is something entirely apart from the Christian Church, and without any organization at all. The leading ideas of this cult are "love, service, and self-sacrifice" and these ideas are silently passed on from life to life and are slowly permeating the whole social
Dr. E. Stanley Jones in his book, "The Christ of the Indian tells of confession and individuals Christianity, but to Christ — not to Christianity, but to Christ — just Christ. One Brahmin is quoted as saying, 'I don't like the Christ! I don't care and I don't care churches, that very same Brahmin was converted to the Christ of Gallilee. The Christ we are more and more leaving out of this Christianity of
Dr. Jones seems to feel that there is a possibility that he will eventually purify the whole world, even this proud Western world, which thinks itself "just like us" and isn't.
50 Whether it comes from India or not, the fact remains that the only salvation for Christianity in the Western world is purification some source. The ONLY SOURCE IS THE CENTER OF THE CHRISTIAN RELIGION. AND CHURCH ORGANIZATION AND CHURCH DOMAIN MUST TAKE HIS PLACE. OVER HIS MUST AND HIS SELF-SACRIFICE CAN WIN MEN'S HEARTS AND LIVES.

A. M. E.'S SELECT CHICAGO FOR CONFERENCE
CHICAGO, (A. N. P.)—This city is to be host to the 28th Quadrennial Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, in May 1928.
The General Conference Commission of the Church of which the Rt. Rev. A. J. Carey is chairman, after meeting last Wednesday in Indianapolis, where the conference was originally scheduled to meet, voted to reconsider the place of meeting and recourse to the Church. Quinn Chapel Church, the guests of Bishop A. L. Gaines, and the pastors of Chicago.
The local committee after taking them on a tour of the city, included new $1 million dollar church home recently contracted for by Bethel A. M. E. Church, extended an invitation on behalf of Chicago, commission unanimously accepted.
Prominent among the members of the commission who were present here last Thursday were Bishop W. S. L. Haines, B. L. Gaines, Rev. B. V. Taylor, J. M. Avery of Durham, N. C. Rev. Montrose Thornton of New York, John R. Hawkins, and S. J. Johnson Washington, D. C. Ira, Bryant Washington, J. D. C. Washington, J. T. Sims, Rev. H. W. Jamieson, Rev. John Harmon, Atlanta secretary, Dr. John Moore, Michigan.
Undoubtedly the visiting officers and ministers of the connection were greatly impressed by Sinal Temple, which seats 4,000, has a community house, containing what is said to be the finest swimming pool in the city, twenty or more separate rooms, a library, a museum work, a magnificent library, a pipe organ, which cost $75,000.

NO SERPENT IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN
Ministers' Meeting.
PASTORS DIVIDED IN SPIRITED DECISION
Meeting Decides To Commend Speaker But Not To Adopt His Paper.
There was no serpent in the Garden of Eden. Dr. Charles E. Stewart, pastor of Metropolitan Tan, several years after, declared in an essay on the "Tall of Man," read before the A. M. E. Ministers' Meeting at Bethel Church, Monday.
"We know nothing of Satan or the devil until we get to the Book of the Wisdom of Solomon, declared Dr. Stewart, "several years after the Devil Church, Genesis was written.
"The writer of Genesis, therefore knew no devil. He meant what he said when he said 'the serpent spoke to Eve.' "One possible derivation of the name Eve means in itself serpent, and therefore he meant tempted to harm her herself. "There is nothing in the New Testament to refute this view and therefore supports it. Adam said Eve caused his troubles and Eve said the serpent caused her troubles, but both had the real serpent in their own perceptions."
Many Gardens Of Eden
"All of us once lived in a garden of *Eden* declares Dr. Stewart, "and the only perfect happiness, religion and freedom and ability to forgive and reconcile." The reason we find life such a tough proposition is because we have done wrong so much that we are not able to accomplish the right virtue and to the best morals. "When we get old enough to be morally and religiously accountable in our life, from God when He wants us He has to hunt us and when He finds us, we have been and are somewhere hiding trying to hide our offensiveness by a few leg leaves." Discussion After a spirited discussion the meeting voted to "commend the speaker" but not to adopt the paper.

We admit that a letter was received by the pastor of Eonon Church from Grace M. E. Church, and in response to that letter, Mr. Willard W.

WASHINGTON, D. C.—
The Twelfth Annual Session of the National Race Congress Meeting in the Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, closed Thursday evening, with a heated political discussion.
Dr. Wn. H. Jernagin, the president, introduced Dr. Wn. A. Byrd of Newark, N. J., as the first speaker. Dr. Byrd spoke on "What Should Be the Politics Of The Negro For 1928"
Dr. Byrd Scores Gov. "Al" Smith. Dr. Byrd said, "Grow in your parts but clean up." My advice to the Negroes in 1928 is 'Let's clean up.'"
"Gov. Alfred Smith wouldn't listen to a group of Harlem Negroes who wanted him to sign a bill, giving a Negro migrate to Harlem."

recognition of the Negro in the
South as well as in the North".
Thomas H. R. Clarke, boldly challenged the statements of Mr. Howard. Mr. Clarke said, "We have no representative in the administration of the U. S. Department and two of them have been demoted." Mr. Howard eloquently told how President Coolidge appointed Walter H. Cohen, collector of customs in when I could write down the names of from 25 to 30 colored, men holding important positions in the South, remember the time when I could write down the clerks in the 9 departments, exclusive of the Post Office.

Finances Increase
As Grace Drops Fifty
Fifty members cropped. forty
added, and an increase in finances,
were hoted tn the renort of the twus-
tees of Grace Presbyterian Church,
which has just closed its Presby-
teial year.
‘The church now has @ membership
of 476 which is a slight decrease over
last year when forty-seven members
were added. Moving into new local-
ities, and negligence in church activ-
ities were contributing factors to
dropping of the fifty members. The
church raised $4.800 is the past year.
'W. D. Johnson, Thomas Wyatt and
Fred Carnage are the new members
of the board of trustecs.

Mr. Thompson.

According to Mr. Hubert, the statement carried in the letter OFRO-AMERIKAN that A Jack Thomas, band, named as his successor Royal Orchestra director, was addressing. Mr. Thomas has no whatever name to appoint his professor, and as far as the Department of Music is concerned on one at all has been selected for this position.
When asked the affair, Jack Thomas explained that he had turned over the direction of his band to Mr. Isaac Thompson, and that he be placed as musical director. Thompson also has the recommendation of a number of musicians and is, according to his en admission, an aspirant for the

Charles Matson
The vaudeville policy is laid aside for a week and a floor show placed by Charles Matson, presenting Spencer Barnes, Kitty Aublanche, Vivian Saunders, Katie Crippen Cassidy Dirkens and others, who show this role which has been a feature of the Swan. Nite Club, Philadelphia, is fast and unattended, as floor shows run, but — if its pretty costumes girls gorgeously dressed or rather a bevy of young undressed chickens of the chippy type that won't quit. In one number Vivian Saunders runs her dance, due to the youngsters that attend. The thing was a little too risque to be allowed outside a night club, but Matson is the kind of fellow that fixes those in a hurry. Kitty, Katie and the wife of Jimmy Thomas were spotted and for a while however, Kitty sprung a "Black-Bottom," was never headed.
Jimmy's wife seems to be a newcomer to the stage, due to the way he bows, but she has a voice and a personality for putting over ballads that is a sure-fire hit. She sang "Always" and used "Indian Love Call" for Katie Crippen is an able stage worker as well as nite club artist. She is able to feel out her audience and be a sparkler. Spencer Barnes, one of the best juvenile comedians of the present, Spencer is funny because he does not but pull a "Bert Williams" but remains original, his greatest handicap being, he has no material to work with. Words are unravvy sary, but he can enjoy a laugh. To see Spencer is to get a laugh a minute. Cassidy and Dirkson, the latter formerly, are the tap dancing besides assisting with the singing. These boys' routine has a tendency to get away from the usual Vector and Cooper and feed us something a little different. Everybody was hitting hard on Monday, but the Nite Club thoughts had not worked off the gear and was hard to hear their voices in the room.
Matson is due great credit for the
sendidle, repertoire.
The Afro-American—Baltimore, Md.—South's Biggest and Best Weekly THEATRES
The week of April 18th, the Maryland will feature the team of Harris and Fulton, who will be presenting the theme of humor and a fine idea to display it with. This idea they call 'Fushen and Full 'em'. It is not a plot, it is just a string to tie some good comedy together. Harris and Fulton will be a mirror they carry, with them as a surprise package of entertainment.
ROYAL
Butterbeans And Susie
Oh, Boy!
When that red hot bunch of musicians finished the overture: "Someone Is Losin' Susan," here, Monday, the gang was warin' to go. One of those combined affairs, the house musicians hooking up with Eddie Heywood's Five and a white violinist directing, just wouldn't be. Eddie Heywood, Henry Banke, Edward Alexander, saxophone; J. W. Walker, trombone; Robert Cheeks, trumpet; and Fred O. Johnson, drums. Who knew that the musicians had hisions. He knows when to let loose and when to tame down.
The opening burlesque, Uncle Tom and Eva, Chloe, Brown as Simon Legree, Gulfport as Topsy, Florence Parham as Eva, chorus maids as brown skin topsys and fair-skin Evas and the Crackerjacks as sons of Uncle Tom.
On Monday the 5 Crackerjacks and Butterbeer and Susie were neck and neck but in the stretch Beans and Susie took the lead and never were headed. Their "blues" singing was all the crowd craved. An audience was a signal for big hands and a bouquet of flowers from the husband of Gloria Smith. Their Crackerjacks, Florence Parham, Harry Jones, Clifford Carter, Tish Hammet and Raymond Thomas appeared in spots had tied the knot. They took the lead itself, each member being a first class tumbler and acrobat, who has trained carefully. Florence is a cute little trick and the voice, evenly balanced, oodles of personality and hot feet. Brown and Margarite, whirlwind dancers, went to the theater and were given real ovation for their numbers. The work of this duo is second to none. The girl is to be compulsive and smiles all through Gulfport and Brown in a light and rough-house comedy skirt were their harmony blending. Their harmony blending.
Octavia sumier, after flying here and there like a streak of lightning, and then like a streak of lightning, reaches the climax. Here is the spot that both principals and chorus is allowed to strut. Speaking of the chorus, there are several brown-brown babies that dance, sing and look pretty. Margaret "Puggy" Bolden continues to hold a slight edge on the envelopes of eyes open or Mabel McGarr, who has just joined the trick, will make it too tight. The other members are Eva Bradley, Orona Bradley, and Bernice Roberta Laue and Bernice Alken.
A big buy at the usual price.
The vaudeville bill this week is presented in three acts, two of which are face-to-face with the house. Cash and Cash, a dance team which opened the show at the Regent last week, is winning the applause for the classy stepping. The team easily make up for that defect in the cleverly executed tap charlestons and waltz clocks of the male partner, the variety act of playing with and trombone, is the feature of Al and Al, a mixed team. The entire merit of their work goes to the petite lady. She is Sue, a port in her running mate. His playing on the saw with a violin bow is only mediocre, and he does not approach the trombone solo. PRACTICE would be a good slogan from him to adopt.
"The Imp of Satan," which turned out to be Kennet, magician, offers some black arts that varied between mirth and mystery. Bert convinced a lad that he was made in a trombone, gave him a good scare in addition at the Monday matinee. His bag of tricks is rather small and could easily stand up, but he gave him a little more pop and polish in putting them over.
PALACE
If you are proud of your race you should not miss seeing "Kongo" at the opening of the two stars of the show are Clarence Reed and August Golden, both of whom Redd plays the part of "Puzzy" and plays the part of Zoombie, the high priest of Zoombie, the high priest. "Kongo" is declared to be a fine play, but it is a type of dramatic offering that is coming back to the stage after long lapses that have been bridged over by the playwrights' pen. "White Cargo," "The Gorilla," "Red Kisses," and a few other plays of sensational narrative umbla "Wheel" this season and "Kongo" is declared to be the most thrilling of the list of red-blooded

The High Priest in "Kongo"
"Kongo" is a story of Darkest Africa, its locale bein' the Belgian Congo where natives thrive on superb crops. It is also the story of his own advantage on the ignorance of the black denizens of the trackless jungle. Into this scene comes a group of Englishmen and a witch, to culmination base intrigue and struggle for vengeance. The white ruler of the jungle is a cripple, who seated always in a wheel chair, and a witch, who is vengeance back by a whip which serves as his macr of authority.

SAN PRANCISCO—When the National Broadcasting Co. hooked up 7 Pacific stations with 1,700 miles of wire last week, they selected Mosby's Blueblowers Orchestra as a headliner. The seven stations are KFI, Los Angeles; KPO, San Francisco; KOQ, Oakland; KGW, Portland; KHQ, Spokane; KOMO, and KFQA, Seattle. Mosby's Blueblowers' seven pieces were organized by Curtis Mosby of Oakland, in 1923, and after a year Solomon apprehended the band, the largest in Los Angeles, and has been the leading attraction there for the past three years. The bands are always on duty at Solomon's but no orchestra, other than Mosby's, has stayed over six months, generally less. The addition to his orchestra at Solomon's conducts a musical store on South Central avenue and also has a band and revue at Solomon's. The said that Mosby's orchestra was the last box office attraction he ever had.

When Life, that unreleasing Jester, guides the destiny of Ross Hampton's fate, it takes him from "The Nightingale" to "The Nightingale," night life mingles with the professional gamester, transplanting him, through the medium of a train wreck, amid the scenery of his childhood, where he meets the White Pingue, sweetest of his childhood. The White Pingue has fastened its talons upon the lungs of the great gambler and the doctors have given him but a year to live.
It is then that fate deals the girl again and Ross Hampton is separated from the girl of his choice. For long-months she waits, bravely bearing silent days until at last, from out of the long silence news of her death arrives. She waits and see for yourself this the greatest of pictures wherein the Providence that guides the lives of we poor mortals here on earth, guards the destiny of Virginia Lee.
A laugh—a sob—a tear—a smile—a thrill—a fear,

We see by the papers that the Rev. Lake Remoids, pastor of the Trinity Baptist Church, pastor of the Trinity an idea of fortune some sort of a command to wait on the good mercy of the Northwest section rectoren to employ clerks on the ground that the greater Northwest section must make us laugh. Reverence that argument is as wet as middle of the Pacific Ocean.
We cannot accept the old theory of no axiom without representation because, while it is true that we carry the greater parts of our business to those other merchants who invest one month throughfare, Pennsylvania accee, yet they do not compel us with the threat of disfamishing us if we don't. We go to these competitions with people have some experience, we need, we pay for that and we and get what we pay for and right there both their and others' end.
Guilding Synagogues
When we pay taxes to municipalities we can squabble about political positions because the collection of taxes is used for public good. But in the case of a business enterprise, we use a merchant's 50 cents a pound for pork and eat up the chops we have eaten all we can justifiably ask the writer to like to suggest that instead of asking the storekeepers to save our young people positions in their stores, that we direct our customers to buy from us to induce them to get the stores of their own. The colored people of Northwest Baltimore have built half the synagogues in Baltimore and merely getting jobs in them, we week clerks won't matter.

RELIGION MUST BE
READJUSTED-NELSON
WORLD TODAY MORE
IRREVERENT THAN EVER
"Religion must be readjusted to fit the demands of the modern world. We must teach our church appeal to men's emotions alone" declared Prof. Wm. Stuart Nelson, at the weekly Y. M. C. A. Forum, Sunday. "To be prepared of today must be prepared to face a more intelligent world and give proof of the things that were formerly accepted with unchallenged confidence. He must be prepared to face an unethical world and cope with the unfairness with which men treat their brothers. Even the nations are not with each other as they once were." Religion must be readjusted to fit an irreverent world. Men no longer need the church and the Bible that they once had, he averred, and while the world cannot be changed religion must change its method of approach.
There are in America 2000 publishes only 200 of which are filled with trained men, the others are manned unable to meet the skilessness of modern times. The answer to the problem is that more of our young men should be encouraged to take the Christian Church to the declared. The speaker was introduced by Linnwood Koger, a former classmate. Nelson is an assistant instructor of Philosophy and Religious Education at Howard University. He has traveled extensively in Europe, both in England and the continent. He will return to Germany this summer to complete work for his doctor's degree.

Finds Seven Year Old Crippled Lad Is Here
Youngster Struggles With Three R's, While He Can Not Even Support His Head As Can Normal Boy Or Girl
Up on North Stricker street at number 922, a little brown mother goes about her household tasks and the care of six children, one of which is sick. And the strange thing about the story is that Mrs. Blake has never considered herself the mother of a youngster possessing unusual moral or physical courage. She merely thinks that her understated son of seven who has had his head supported by a steel brace for four years because of an injured spine, came upon him three weeks ago in a school in South Baltimore, the most pliful little pupil of 33 cripples, painfully rounding the letters of a writing lesson, with a kind of about the forehead to keep the soft bones of his neck from breaking. "That boy is a hero," said E. P. Moore, who is teacher-in-charge and has been about nearly all the time, and the more using of a pencil causes him some pain, but he has learned to read and write a little since being here and is an honor pupil of the
Back in 1923 Raymond was a bit more active than his brothers and sisters, and a serious curvature of his spine. That was a blow to childish hope and ambition. Was his oldest sister not attending School 121, promised that he should enter kindergarten the next year? Mrs. Blake says that the three following years were gloomy ones for her and her children, and the childish capers of the neighborhood kids, a tired father to come from his work every night and try to cheer up his classmates during a week. Last autumn an attendance officer brought a little sunshine to the Blakes. She told them that arrangements had been made for her to attend class at School 106-A in South Baltimore. Six months of effort and he was made to be suspended, and then another blow came. Fire of a mysterious origin damaged the school March 27 so that classes had to be suspended. The unriddled backward ones were transferred to School 121 which was only two blocks away. There were no ground and hand-made objects on the system.
Now up at 922 North Strier street, this youngster smiles at times and asks, "Mother, when do you go to fix our school?" Mrs. Blake tells him that it will be soon, but inventions and school jobs are so soon.

WIFE WHO ATTEMPTED TO END LIFE FINED
Suicide Threat Called Disturbing Peace When Woman Fails To Jump From Windows.
ADMITS JEALOUSY
CAUSE OF PAMPAGE
Thot Husband Who Worked Late Was Out With Another Woman, She Tells Judge.
The attempt of Mrs. Pauline Johnson. 708 Dudl Hill avenue, to end her life by leaping from a second story window during a fit of temperament resulting from a quarrel with her husband, Amos Johnson, did not end in suicide but netted the wife a dollar fine for disturbing the peace. According to Johnson, who is a candy maker, he was forced to work late Monday night because of the Easter rush. When he entered the kitchen, he was stalking out on a pleasure cruise. She began throwing kitchen utensils until he was forced to carry her bodily parts into the floor and lock her in her bedroom. A commotion on the outside attracted his attention and he rushed to the window to leap from the window. Returning to the house in company with an officer, both Johnson and the policeman were greeted with a rain of flowers, but the man finally subdued the Mrs. Johnson.
She was fined in the Northwestern bay, but she told that the reason for the campage was that she was jealous of her husband, and had been out with someone else.

Denounced on Baltimore street when the face of a girl at the window of the barbershop and before the occupant had been arrested, she leashed through the window striking the legs of two white customers who were seated on the bootback stand and one passing through the rug which Smith was using on

She learned that she was colored and was shooting at Smith. **Met In Hospital** Smith had kept company with the young woman for several months but had quarreled about two weeks ago. He met the young woman while he was a patient in the Johns Hopkins Hospital. She said she was waiting, an acquaintance was formed which ripped after his dismissal. When police went to the young woman's home to question them, they learned that she left town.
ELKRIDGE MAN IN TRAFIC COURT HERE
James H. Fitzgerald. Elkridge, was dismissed by Magistrate Staylor when he was found not guilty of a traffic Court. Part II. Tuesday.
Mr. Fitzgerald was charged with having knocked down little Gladys Paige. 636 E. 10th St. and Addie Paige at Eddington avenue and Carey street Saturday afternoon. Mr. Fitzgerald claimed that he did not hear the child's screams offered by other assistance. Witnesses of the accident were Mrs. Helen Wilson and a Mr. Robinson, a local school teacher, who witnessed the accident occurred. They both heard the child screamed but neither saw the car strike her, but as Mr. Fitzgerald was the only one soong south at the accident it was evident that he had struck her.
Mr. Fitzgerald's identity was brought about when Mrs. Wilson, an old acquaintance of the family record, was taken to the keen observation of Mr. Robinson who took the license of the car as it drove them. Magistrate Staylor dismissed Mr. Fitzgerald of the charge as he felt confident that he wasn't aware of the accident.
He was represented by Attorney
C. G. Fitzgerald.

The cold gray walls of the Maryland State penitentiary circumscribe the world so far as William Snowden, a convict here, is concerned.
His own little world, where he has dwelt for the last twelve years inside was at home, in those massive iron doors with their clanking and screaming he felt protection, friendliness, outside it was cold, hostile, different from it was when he entered twelve years ago. That's why, when Governor Ritchie signed a parole that could take a year before his sentence was up, he refused it, and the official document returned to the capital with the prisoner's note, thanks Governor, but I'll stay.
CONVICTED OF MURDER
On October 30, 1930, five heavy doors were broken and a stalwart man of 38, a farmer convicted in the second degree by a jury for the death of a woman he had been married to. His doors opened and closed throughout these years and his mates whom he had learned to love through constant association with the work of others, cells felt one by one as their terms expired. As each would leave, how impatient he became for the day, he would have been in the joys of the outside world. But that was years ago. Prison life took its toll, he became accustomed to it all, and he would have felt all within those four gray walls and when the paradox came, it brought not the joy it would have brought had it come when he was able to interest in life, when was woman
They didn't look him up in the stuffy cells anymore. He was perplexed to wander around as a trusty Howe and then them a warden's home to do a little work. They fed him, gave him a place to sleep with none of the worries that he would have on the outside. Why, he said, "No thanks," he said when informed of the parole. I think I'll stay."

Staging a belated rally in the closing moments of the game, the Morgan College Bears, by the aid of superb shooting by Sheffy won the second contest and the city championship from the Athenians 32 to 18, at the New Albert Friday night. Just about 350 howling fans were on hand to see the "people's favorites" swapped almost exclusively as a fortune in the opening game of Richmond Armory.
The Bears entered the fray again a slight favorite, but many gloomy faces were in play. They were the collegians leading by a close three point margin, 11-8. Simpson, at center, outplayed Lanky. That told the team the collegians led, tiredly the "pink flash" and inky Clark were in rare form, and it was due to the former's victory as the pinnacle of the night victory for Morgan. The Greeks displayed a strong defensive game in the opening session, and with Simpson, they held the collegians through the twenty minutes. *Scoreless for Eleven Minutes*. It was eleven minutes in half the game, and the pinnacle was a point, in the meantime, Morgan rp up nine markers.
*The Gene* "Pinky" Clark at the bank of the whistle caged the togs, too. Sheffy came in for one of his pretty overhead loops and everything was hots-tots. Clark hung up his second field goal and in the next look like a wild night for the Bears.
Simpson Starts Off
With Morgan leading, 9-6. Simpson the Greeks' big triple threat man, made a little loss from the latter's had backed their, first two points. Seemingly, this feat of the big center, enlivened the Greeks, and they counted two more goals before Morgan came out.
Hill In And Out
Hill replaced Sheffly at forward and hardly three minutes elapsed before the former departed from the center on account of the shoulder, back and registered a field goal on the tap off. The first half ended a moment later with Morgan leading, 11-8.
Second Half, a Mile
After Morgan the count up to fifteen minutes after the opening of the second half, the Greeks fought like rojans and almost tied the score, falling short but one point.
Jones and Sheffly
Realizing the critical moments at the end, his boys together for a little conference and the fight was on. From this juncture He Bees began a spurt, or pulled them ahead, and their score of that of their opponent.
With the count 28-15, near the close of the game, Sheffy counted three shots from an almost impossible angle. The Greeks played virtually a four-man near the goal to keep the Bears from rushing in. Morgan presented a tight defense, but weakened the Greeks, Brown, Simpson and Harris were the outstanding, while Sheffy, Clark and Jones led the collegians' attack. In the preliminary encounter, the Morgan College Academy Tossers came from behind in the final session,冲撞了Turquoise Gowers, 35-23.

WASHINGTON, D. C. — Gus Moore, former school boy milier and cross-country champion Nate Hardy, has proved to be a sensation and outstanding figure in collegiate ranks for the past year, will be a member of the Open Championships May 14th, 1921. Moore is making several formidable scholastic records, Moore has run some impressive races in a class with Willett Rilota, the country's outstanding distance men, and has won natural ability and his fighting spirit cannot be surpassed by any man on the cinder path. The eyes of the world have not only won the championship for mile and two-trophy victory, but with one or two more years back of him, he will not only hold the colored championship for mile and two-trophy victory, regardless of race. As a matter of fact, Moore has already been picked as a likely candidate for United States Olympic team for 1928.
It will be remembered that, at the last Open Championships held at the Olympic Stadium, most colorful runner of the afternoon. He won the mile event with ease and, to the surprise of the great mass of spectators, he returned a champion. He also won the mile event in record time. The management expects to give somepromotion in a race with Moore who handles handicaps from scratch so that the phenomenal Moore may have a chance to extend himself and establish another record. He is a modest athlete who has gained great favor in the public eye. With the National Open Championship, he is Howard University Stadium. It will be well worth the price of admission to see Moore in the mile and two other luminaries like Gecko Cook the national quarter mile champion.

Charles Prohomme and Roy were the mount duties, while they granted fewer hits than did the Storer hurler, several of the West Virginia were most timely. The Storer outburst two hits to seven for Storer.
Jimmy Walker was the hero of the game, given such little moments that they drove three mates over the plate. He reamed wild over the outfield and diagonal service from
Despite Howard's poor showing none of the Bison followers are pessimistic because none of the regular players have the games they have; however, the regular team will be intact and Howard hopes to repeat her record of last year.

HOWARD TRACK MEET DATE IS UNCHANGED
Watson Documents Prove
Date Has Always Been
2nd May Saturday
C. I. A. A. TRACK MEET
ALSO ON SAME DATE
Date Moved From Third
Saturday To Conflict With
Howard
WASHINGTON, D. C. In what apparently looks like another war cloud between Howard, Lincoln and the C. I. A. A., which this time is not on the gridiron, but on the track field, looms probable as the Bisons and Seasiders announce their open track meets to take place on the same day, May 14. Lincoln set the country side bubbling over last week when they announced at Hampton and not at Hawton because of the conflicting dates, and too, because of their allegiance to the Southern Conference which included
Coach Watson of Howard, told the APRO Monday and at the same time Bloxner had not changed their annual open field day date, and that for the last five years the games were held in May. There is only one instance where the Howard date was changed and that was Saturday, May 21. The Hampton meet since May 1922 has been staged on the third Saturday, L. Whitehead, aa., Secretary-Treasurer C. I. A. A., writes that the C. I. A. A. Press Statement, which gave a resume of the meeting, Meeting which was held at A. & T. College, Greenbrow, N. C. December 10-11, 1926, announced. The Sixth Annual Track Meet was sanctioned by the Association and it will be held at Arnstrongfield, Hampton institute on Saturday.
The announcement referred to in last week's press notice was merely to call attention to the date which Mahler, the composer, is to be host to the C. I. A. A. on Saturday, May 14, 1927, and it was soaked through the courtesy of that institution that a second article bearing on the year's Meet was soaked in Press. Lincoln Manager Talks Student Manager Leon S. Roye said last week that Lincoln would not break with Howard over the conflict between the two men, a recent entrance in the C. I. A. A. and the 1930 Indoor meet in New York on May 21, they would be unable to send a team to both schools, and they would have on their men, and the possible training of two groups.
As far as friendly terms are concerned Howard and Lincoln are still the same as before the big annual classic last fall.

The First Easter
As it began to dawn toward the first day of the week came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. Among themselves, who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre? And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away, for it was broken. And they entered in and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
And it came to pass as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold two men stood by them in shining garments.
And they say unto Mary, woman who bequest thou? She saith unto them. Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him.
And when she had said she turned herself back and saw Jesus standing and knew not that it was Jesus saith unto her, woman who weepest thou? She supposing him to be the gardner, saith unto him, Sir if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou has laid him, and I will take him away.
And she met her, Mary. She turned herself and saith unto him, Master. (From the combined scriptures.

City Council
As a result of the primary election last week, Mr. Warner T. McGuinn and Mr. Walter Emerson were nominated on the Republican ticket to the city council from the Fourth District. There ought to be city wide interest in their election in May for two reasons. First, because the Council at present constituted has one Republican member. Second, because the colored group is without any representation at all in either appetitive or elective positions in the city government. The primary just past was fortunate if thereby was nominated the people's choice. It was unfortunate if any animies were aroused which should prevent harmonious party action in the election of these candidates. The people need to serve notice upon politicians that the primary except as evidences of fraud may be uncovered as a closed book, and that the only question before us is the question of those who have been nominated.
This is good politics. It's good sportsmanship and it's common

Legislature
While a number of Northern and Western state legislatures considered Ku Klux fostered bills to set up and foster a color line, the Maryland legislature which adjourned last week approved a bill to allow the car crow law off the statute books. That the repeler did not pass, is regrettable, yet it is worth while to note that even the discussion of repealing it denotes progress on the part of our Democratic white friends who enacted this measure. The governor, Gabell Bruce, declared it was time Maryland did away with the jim crow car law, State Senator Walter J. Mitchell, of Charles County, said he rode to the station in his friend's buggy, but the law forbade him sitting by the same row. Governor Ritchie, likewise declared the law a "muisance" and told of having to change his seat between the state capital. The legislature for the first time, appropriated a goodly sum $125,000 from Morgan College. It made the interracial Commission a permanent
The AFRO boletes this represents progress. State Senator Wm. J. Colton, who opposed the repeal of the gun bill bill last week admitted he was open to reason, and allowing him to vote, and he would give the state chance to see whether it actually wanted repeal. Senator Colgan like others admitted that except in isolated sections the law is a virtual dead letter.
A large part of this better feeling between the races is due to the fact that colored voters in the case of Ritchie, Senator Mitchell and other members of the legislature are not voting. The time ought to come when there will be as many black Democrats as black Republicans and when it does discriminatory legislation will pass away as rapidly as it began.
Whose Heaven?
Everybody knows about the "black belts" in our cities, says the Washington correspondent of the Columbia Press Bureau, but why is it that the light of publicity is so seldom unnoticed by other groups which occupy large "quarters" or sections of the same cities.
For example it is pointed out, In New York are, 175,000 Negroes, 900,000 Italians, 1,600,000 Jews, 700,000 Germans. In Chicago are—Bohemians, 333,000 Negroes, 165,000 Poles, 400,000 Jews, 200,000. The answer is plain, it isn't numb to mention a city section the subject of books, magazine articles and picture stories, but color.
We can keep all the Negroes in one section of the city, because we can identify them by their complexion. After one generation Jews, Poles, and Italianes get lost in the melting pot, and live all over the same cities.
While the foreign quarters in many large counties grow gradually smaller, black bets ALONE grow steadily larger. Racial contacts are increased and some race friction. Racial adaption is a hopeful sign, for when we gese beaing a problem, the world we know we have started dying out
DAYBYDAY
An Argument Down In Memphis, Tenn.
M. S. Stewart, of the Memphis TRIANGLE has knocked the opportunity to have a real impact on the lives of young people, debatable question of youths' attitudes towards social equality of races squarely in the head by dabbing in the head. Comment in this column some time ago on what we regarded his attitude in the matter was not meant to be a personal thing. Good journalism surmises that readers are not concerned with what job a man held ten years ago. BUT IN THE ISSUE INVOLVED NOW. Thousands of young men and women studying race leadership and social justice thought as to racial objectives and other thousands are floating on a sea of indecision. Booker, Washington, one of the leaders of the issue that ever lived, took a definite point of view and built thereon a philosophy. It would however, be no sacrilege to the profession, a philosophy of Booker T. Washington.
When a young mother goes down into the shadow of the tree, she forbids a human being she should have a clear idea of the group destiny. Young fathers should be well drilled not only in what he does, but in his individual goal. BUT HOW HE SHOULD GUIDE HIS OFF-SPIRING TO FAT INTO A RACING TO FAT INTO A RACING. That is why racial public opinion should speedily crystallize itself into a definite racial philosophy. THEN SOUTH CAN TAKE UP THE BUSINESS OF making a race. What they really want to perpetuate is not social isolation as it is with the white people, but TUS WHEREBY THEY CAN TAKE THE MARBLE PALACES. THE ROLLS ROYCEES AND THE ROLLS CHILDREN THE MARBLE GROUP GETS THE CADINS AND CORN BREAD. Any race or group may have a right to keep such biological or social differences, but if it is the duty of some families, white and colored, to preserve their gains by marriage ties with similarly cultural maters for all civilizations have developed this
But when this is applied to free human intercourse; when a white man is forced to sleep on a side by side in a work shop, bank, chemical laboratory or Christian Church; when it acts to prostitute women, or who by their own desire believe their fate lies along the same social highway and prevents them from being married, IT REACHES DEEP INTO BLOOD AND BONE AND KEEPS ONE GROUP SLAVE AND THE OTHER DOMINATELY PREE
Social Equality
But suppose the bulk of the colored youth should accept unreservedly the doctrine that in America our racial destiny shall be one of perpetual social isolation. He would have to of necessity accept with it economic differentiation.
The first human being who pounced upon and subdued another human being and made him a slave had no social ideas about it. HE WANTED HIM TO DO THE HEAVY TOIL AND BE ABLE TO TAKE THE LION'S SHARE OF HIS PRODUCT.
Down in Mississippi white men associate with colored men and women at night, on a fifty-fifty basis, BUT WORK THEM IN THE FIELDS AND DIVIDE ON A 50 and 10 basis the wealth they make the next day.
The share cropper in Tennessee and the plantation owner are "one as the hand * * and separate as the fingers" but the share cropper bears the yoke of slavery while the money baron basks in the sunshine of super-prosperity.
Premature death, enforced ignorance and a train of evils follow in the wake of any denial of human equality.
No Mr. Stewart, however long
he had been, he still

By Default
While the vicissitudes of politics and the good common sense the people have in mind, their vote are making white leaders cater to their interests and even beckon for more of them to come north. It is also causing white leaders like sir *Lil' George*, Tennessee and Mississippi. Pras dispatches report chambers of commerce in Memphis, and other southern cities taking steps to "keep their colored labor" by telling them that they are painted as they are painted in the north. Well, "you can't fool a horse fur" and colored folk know that "they ARE PAINTED IN THE SOUTH." The whites in the South may yet have to give the group justice by moving them to the south, where they will stop bering conditions in the north but compete in make the South as liberal

Darrow, Toti Payne And Abe Lincoln, All Non-Church Members Did More For Negro Emancipation Than The Devout Christians, Says Toni To the Editor: In the past two weeks I have read several letters to the forum and a set article relative to the speech made by Clarence Darrow in Washington, D. C., before a colored audience.
A Happy Suggestion For A Series Of Meetings Which Should Add To Popular Enlightenment. Thank you. Our people are intensely religious, but not always according to knowledge. There are many who do not habitually go to church but do not believe in God. A great atmosphere has steadily been increasing, and having outgrown much of their earlier conceptions of religious truth, the customary presentation of them is in many contexts them intent.
Some of the letters commended Mr. Darrow and other exorcized him for warning the race against too much religious belief. Like Darrow, that religion to a great degree keeps the Negro in awe and stupidity, my purpose is to tell you readers that every move that has been made to ameliorate our conditions in America must be done by the Darrow-Nearing type of white men.
What the race needs is more enlightenment on things religious, and the interest of popular enlightenment that it would be a good thing. If in one of our largest churches, a series of events, a number of evenings, could be held. I mean this. Let one representative of each distinct race be given a night in this city among the race, be given a night to say in his own way why he believes that his particular race should be right one. The interest to meet the religious needs of the many.
I doubt very sincerely that one thousand Negroes in America have been baptized in America by Thomas Payne, and yet he was the father of the emancipation movement. Saves the late Mr. Payne to Thomas Payne, and yet he is a distinction of God; male and female is a distinction of nature; and that specie of distinction that causes an abun in slavery and then looses upon the world a document like this proclaiming to be founded on reliance upon the world a distinction I cannot understand.
After his address, he should stand up, like a man, and answer any questions that may ask him. He should not vote on popular expression should be had. The only object would be the enlightenment and education of his hearers. Those who attend attention should be given. The object would constitute their own judge, and lurve.
Thomas Jefferson immediately declared, "I'll release every slave I come." From that momentous debate, the movement to free the slave began. Abraham Lincoln went Payne one better. Said he to a crowd of religious bigots, "When insisted, the Christian can settle the question, that because of men's color and texture of hair they are not deserving of freedom, then and not until then, will the Christian be the world for Christianity." While Lincoln was making this laconic and immortal statement, a white Baptist minister was preaching from his pulpit against the liberation of the slave.
I can see no objection to such a course. In fact, all students would be eager for such a public discussion. For, it is assumed that each one is what he is because he believes it best for him. What we want is the truth for the truth alone can make us free, Assuming that the objection would represent the faith of that denomination, the public would gain a wider and more extensive knowledge of organized religion than it ever experienced be-
It would be a blessing to humanity, Christianity, and the Negro race every year since 1875, every white child born, was reared under the belief of Darrow.

To the Editor:
"He lifted the veil of ignorance from his people, and pointed the way to progress through education and industry."
If England, Russia or anybody else wants an Asiatic war, the United States ought to stay out of it and we should not want them who want it. But we are not staying out. We are bundling off our marines in large numbers to Asia. getting ourselves so "entangled" that we would like it will involve us in the ruin.
Born possibly within a few months of Taney's delivery of his epoch-making Dred Scott decision, Booker T. Washington was born in 1827 and he achieved his three score years and ten, the normal maximum life expectancy of the Psalmist.
We say "possibly for" is not known due to the child he was born. He himself, in his autobiography "Up From Slavey," says, "I am not quite sure of the exact place or exact date of my birth, but at an age of 18, I was born somewhere and at some time ... and the year was 1858 or 1859." Negro historians, however, from certain evidences in his works feel justified in statuing the year as 1859. He was at Tuskegee Institute, he is celebrated as his birthday.
England is anxious, like all other imperialists, to see that South China represent the workers, the scholars and the revolutionists of China. If South China succeeds, the day of big business robbed in China will be over. We must educate those Chinese leaders, but we were hypocrites: we did not mean to make full-grown men out of them, but we thought before that, somehow we could indulge in missionary zeal and Christian brotherhood teaching, and we would win the "superior race." We proclaimed in the fromstools that we were educating Chinese students, but when they got educated and showed it by their own efforts, they with us, we were ready to shoot them for it. They are "radicals," "bolsheviks," and anything else hard to pronounce or not quite under-
Uthered into the world "in the midst of the most miserable, desolate and discouraging pain," Washington departed this life in 1915, as a great man whose loss was mourned by the whole world. He was a valuable institution and whose contribution to his profession had been honored by proud institution of learning and a valuable philosophy of life to ten millions of his people.
I met twenty generals of Feng's army in Europe. They were all general officers, and many scholars, an educated speaking good English, some educated in the best schools of America.

The "Free State of Maryland" has decided — in the legislature assembled — to allow the state to legalize law. The bill got through the Judiciary Committee but its sponsors were forced — by one man — to abandon the bill when it got to the governor. I know something of this sort of Jim Crow in Maryland, having run into it in my younger and less disinterested years, but I resented to "throw" me off and I moved quietly to the place assigned.

I been runnin' this
Elevator too lon'
Guess it quit now.
As to the which, which simply that the running of an elevator is perfectly honorable employment job should leave it until he is reasonably sure of getting something better.
Up To A. M. E.'s To Quit Liberia
Up To A. M. E.'s To Quit Liberia
(Caswell Crews in "Light") Bishop Crews emphasized consistently for the amelioration of Liberia. But by the latter part of our stay there it was all too evident that we were patiently awaiting the completion of his building program that it might take steps to come into possession of our land. If Bishop Brooks made any mistake it was in the direction of catering too much to those we were offered to place them, which are now engineering his persecution. He doubtless would turn back though he must have realized that the cards were stacked against him. He goes to the church to come to the aid of Bishop Brooks and invoking common sense, retrieve whatever of its investments it can, applying its finances elsewhere, leaving the republic to work out its own destiny.
POEM A WEEK
Mud And Stars
A man looked cut through the window wide.
There was purple night in buds.
There were trees and flowers in the rain outside.
But he only saw the mud.
Another man looked in the gloaming time,
Out through the iron bars.
He glanced beyond the mud and grime,
And he only saw the stars.
It isn't so much what the world holds fairs,
For mud and there mud there.
And it isn't so much what's really there
For what we look for we see!

Kelly Miller Says
Whatever advantage or disadvantage the race derived from the war was incidental and not calculated. He was requisitioned for his man power alone. No mere account of his personal gain was considered than was accorded the Hessian hirelings during the Revolutionary War. The vacuum in the labor market caused a shift of two millions of the race from the South to the North. Herein lies the chief indirect benefit which the race has derived from the war.
The world thinkers are now looking backwards over the past ten years to determine what, if any benefit the World War has brought to mankind. The New York University recently a symposium of American and European publicists. There is no concensus of opinion. No single authority is able to point out in a convincing way the undisputed advantage from the French Revolution, the Revolutionary War or the Civil War.
Of one thing all must be convinced, and that is, if the statesmen of the world could have foreseen ten years ago the colonies would have preserved they never would have precipitated this titanic struggle.
Mr. Wilson's fourteen points have become the tetradecalor of ridicule. He has become the object of phrases have become the object of sport and jest. His League of Peace has become the object of league. He has become the object of no one can say how it will resemble. It may be that we miss the advantage of perspective. We may be too close to the events to properly placement and interpretation.
When we confine our attention to the American Negro, however, we have a much easier and simpler task. He had no immediate concern in the World War. The quarrels between the Germans and the Russians, French and Englishmen were no conqueror. The destruction of autocracy in Germany had absolutely no meaning to the Negroes. George Washington did the same, after it leads. His not to reason why; his but to do and die. He responded to his country's call. Whether or not he described when the general roll was called, he was there. He responded to the call of Woodrow Wilson, four hundred thousand times. Whatever advantage or disadvantage the race derived from the war was incidental, and he insisted for his manpower alone. No more account of his personal gain was considered than was accorded the many battles during the Revolver War.
I called on Secretary Baker along with the first delegation of the Democratic party to investigate officers. We found him keenly sympathetic, though hedged in by the traditional prejudice of the party. We also took the party's policy of the Democratic party.
We had high hopes that the Negro would wrest from the prejuvenile army the army recognition as an officer in the federal army by tested fitness and the acknowledged capacity to carry the requirements of war. Thanks to Secretary, Baker, the camp at Des Moines was established. We believed that the Negro was to be given a squarer, if not a square deal. I visited the camp and addressed the team of officers highest. Negro officers were shortly commissioned with a prescribed rank in the Army. But in the meantime, the Negro was a sudden change in public sentiment and a sudden shift in the program of commissioning of training was prolonged. The race was sorely disa-mounted. Houston sounded the death knell of the army by functioning in the army above the level of a private soldier. The word I am convinced was passed down from me to the far shalt and no further.
The few Negroes who received commission as officers were so handicapped and embarrassed, that effective functioning was impossible. The race came out with a lower level of esteem as a qualifiable officer than he entered. The effect has been far reaching. Negro leadership in Negro affairs has been greatly discredited throughout the whole circle of racial life and activity.
The World War creed is a vacuum in the labor market of the North. Southern Negroes rushed in to fill the vacancy. This has made the labor market of the race from South to North. Herein lies the chief indirect benefit which the race has derived from the war. The magnitude of this advantage is hard to calculate. It is, however, to consider some of the incidental situations which follow in the train of this northern movement.
By far the most conspicuous of the city's residents is all of our cities, north or south, where the Negroes come in great numbers. They live in residential areas, selfs in separate residential areas.
The attempt to establish legal boundaries and the effort on the part of the race to combat them is a serious and important outcome, the Negroes find themselves in possession of homes whose quality, convenience and appointments surpass their fond dreams of two decades ago. More than half of the Negroes are better housed than any minor group of the American people. In the capital of the nation, they have a square mile with no good residential facilities as the city affords. Indeed many of the principal streets and avenues leading to the public buildings and business sections of the city are the gro section for as much as running a mile. In New York, they have the better favored residential section. In Chicago certain of the older streets and avenues are simply amazing in their magnificence.
There has been material improvement in the condition of the Northern migration which in turn is due to the War. In every imminent committee have been organized devoted to the task of ameliorat-

ing the condition of the Negro. The race has gained tremendous potential political power by virtue of the shift of population. In event the city, the Negro holds the balance of power is contested elections. city of Chicago has just elected a mayor who was largely sponsored by Negro voters. The race is gaining power, the boards of aldermen and also some effective voice in guiding the action of national parties.
We might also attribute the new Negro newspaper to the outcome of time Negro journalism was out of the thermometer and the sentiment and feelings of the race. Their miserable only to be surpassed by the necessity by their literary features and artisanality. Even race loving readers to be seen reading in Negro journals street cars or in public. This was generally characteristic of the colored press, given several well known exceptions. The exception has become the rule. Nearly every large center has a Negro paper which in mechanical features rank not unfavorable with white journalism. The Negro is beginning to pay serious attention to his own press, which often all is the most effective voice of the people.
Not More Assertive Of Rights.
Strange to say, the war has not made the Negro more progressive and able to use its rights as has the case with the white people, only suppressed races and classes in all parts of the world.
Our military organizations are afraid of the black men in ante-bellum prototypes. The N. A. A. C. P., while more efficient in method, is perilous milder in spirit than the American League, which preceded American League. Y. A. has not accentuated its militancy for racial rights. The Urban League is pursuing the wanted men, and Negro churches are certainly not more assertive, and in some ways seem more susceptible to the attacks of the white ship than they were ten years ago. The radical magazines which sprang up like mushrooms just before the out of existence. The Crisis has become militant, but radical. The Messenger alone holds the edge of radicalism. The Negro politicians coolidge in Conservative as Tait and Coolidge.
The New Negro.
Dr. Locke has tried to convince us that the new Necro has a strong voice. He is the main grinding out an epic literary output under sponsorship. The new Necro does not have the additional vigor to transform racial conditions or to bring new things to the best proof of the Necro's essentially conservative nature is seen in the face that he hardly seems to care. He crises through the world. The war has brought the race certain concrete advantages of calculable power, or inspired his imagination.

Social Rights
(From Los Angeles Evening Express)
The South has lived in a state blissful ignorance of the past, and the period of reconstruction times, and seems to have no idea of its past. Only the political rights of Negroes but their social rights as well. The purpose was to protect their disenfranchised status, voting or the enjoyment of any public service or entertainment. Until now the South has adopted the amendment, acting as a

There are those who are constant spectators in the courtrooms. Day in and day out they can be seen to take their places in the criminal courts, where they listen to cases and speculate on the disposition.
How they earn their living no one knows. With a change of bailiffs they are sometimes routed from one court to another but they learns the futility of trying to keep them in custody, as soon as possible on unnumbered. They are referred to by officials and lawyers as "Court Lice."

Phyllis Wheatley School, Wakee, near Pemberton Ave., was especially favored by Thomas E. Muller, Excongressman from the State of South Carolina who served in the Congress of the United States, Washington, D. C. during the 1920s. Presenting a remarkable and artistically appearance, he furnished the children a excellent and innovative address. The class in Glyves has an opportunity to learn the knowledge of Congress, its divisions and duties, through a preliminary rapid quiz. The teacher took the children back to the classroom and taught them troubles sometimes immediately subsequent to the civil war, the supplied incident of government history.

He exceedingly practiced in his talk to the children and teachers. He gave much useful advice upon every occasion, being once a County Superintendent and President of a college. The very remarkable and impressive work he did very much to impress the children vividly with the real sight of a living. Ex-Congressman of color who served

WHAT HAS APPENED SO FAR
KAYNE learns to his annoyance
that CLIFFORD is to occupy
adjoining offices. JOYCE invites MR.
HARGRAVES and his young wife
CLEO, to dinner; the latter makes
love to KAYNE but is ignored. LES-
LIE and CLIFFORD engage in an
argument over ALLENE just as
JOYCE appears in the doorway.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY.
"So, my suspicions were correct,
Mr. Kayne," flashed Joyce strelching
haughtly into the room, thought
that your raid was that of your
father of yours were actuated
by more than her business ability.
You are fired young woman," she said
coldly to Aileen, who drawn by the
excitement was standing hesitantly on
the sill of the door.
"What right have you to discharge me
demanded by Aileen placing her
hands on her hips, "Mr. Kayne hired
me."
"Well, Mr. Kayne has proven his inability to conduct his own office, and I shall make certain changes, the first of which is to design a clothing women who plays on his sympathy and dependence to wreck his home."
"It's married women like you," snapped Alleen, "who are keeping girls like me out of the school and designing clothes to support you and yet you hang to your job that rightfully belongs to us. You're not satisfied of robbing me of that job, but with your infernal jealousy you are trying to steal the work. It is hardly enough to get in domestic scandal about; so I'll quit."
She breezed out of the room. Leslie made a move to stop her, but his wife blocked his path. "Nobody about him," she said, commanding severely.
"Just one of Rupert's lies" has anlaired. "I have neither seen nor heard from Gwen since I left New York, almost a year ago. I don't know where she is and I don't care but, your groundless suspicion your pesterings, and your continual mugging, but you are responsible for my mistrust." "I am not, it is your own damned fault, your teaching, your association with a lot of women, who like yourself, don't have time to look after their own homes and get jealous when their husbands go elsewhere. Your clubs, your card parties, women who try to make a home to get jealous, be don't have to get jealous, are not afraid to have children. There is only one thing that will preserve our union—habits."
*Be blesz? Why Leslie, you are so old fashioned--remember my career.*
"Career hell!" roared Leslie, "what greater career could a woman want than to bring good healthy intelligent children into the world?"
"Grije, come," interrupted Rupert, who had been enjoying the repartition with much interest. "I did not think my little remark would cause all this.

"Leslie, I sometimes wonder whether it was you I loved, or the Leslie I loved as a child. You seemed so strong and manly then. Marriage has brought about a change in you."
"Marriage will bring about a change in any man," he grunted with a faint touch of his old hatred for the institution.
With Aileen gone, Leslie's troubles came in torrents. He could not remember his appointments, he forgot to file his cases, he left piles of letters to his boss, he called his phone to good clients, who happened to call him while he was preparing a brief and broke his trend of thought.
He hired a new girl, and another and another. None seemed to do just like Alleen did. He either discharged them or they left of their own accord unable to stand his eccentricities any longer. More and more that old hatred of office drubberry seemed to give him the courage ofapers of his desk were an eyesore to him each morning. The easy going air with which Rupert strutted past his office enroute to his own gallled him. Business began to drop off and he found it more and more difficult to meet his obligations. There was but one consolation, one outlet for his feelings—his piano. Long into the night he would play—piano, drums, dream of—well, yes, dream of Gwen and wonder what was she doing, where she was, did she ever dream of him?
One afternoon he won an exceptionally hard fought case, one of his few nowadays. His practice was dropping off, not that he wasn't recognized as an unusual brilliant lawyer in the court room but because he had no job, not being himself to office work. He tried his best to remember his appointments but with slow precision he was being branded among criminal circles as a lawyer not to be depended upon.
Elated with his success of the day he stopped at Ford's Theatre on his way home and purchased tickets for a much heralded show she gave him. He phone'd the Club Arabia and made reservations for a table for two. What a surprise he would have for Joyce, they would have a big night of it, they spent so little time together since she had insisted on teaching in night school. The fact was they saw each other only once, and at night then she too tired from the night classes to be sociable.
"Well, Joyce," he cried excitedly as he rushed in the house, "I won that case."
"That's lovely," replied Joyce disinterested. "What case?"
He was crosspallen. "Why, the case I've been raving about for the last two weeks. Don't you take any interest in my success at all?"
"Now, don't get peeved, dear. My mind was on my work at the time."

"Really, dear that's awfully splendid of you but I promised Mrs. Dudley Monroe that I would attend her bridge party tonight and to make out now would be so sad and suicide."
"Say Joy, let Mrs. Dudley Monroe and her family go to the devil's night. Give your husband a little of your time. We are like perfect strangers."
"Now don't be unreasonable. Leslie, a woman can have her husband any time but an opportunity to break into this exclusive set comes once in a lifetime."
"If you go to that bridge party tonight, I'll call up one of the threatens. Kaye."
"That's your preoperative," snapped Joyce as she flaunted up the stairs calling his bluff. Angered Leslie seized the phone. He called several of his old friends who were still single. To each he quest he received the same phone. He was reminded that he was married now and they could not risk their reputations being seen in public with him. Hanged the telephone down on the table. As he did so a card dropped to the floor. On it was written the phone number of Dr. Hargrave. A thouh shot shot thru his brain, the doctor was in his office until late. He might call Cleo. She cared no more for conventions. He did. He was certain she would accept either the one for something more exciting. No—he decided after a pause. He had enough of married women.

"Want a life?" called a merry voice from the wheel of a handsome blue coat. The driver was a pretty young woman. Cleo Hargrave.
"I appreciate your kindness," smiled Kayne, stepping upon the running board as the door was open. "My car is the show and I was prepaRED to use the trolley." "I haven't been in an accident!" queried Mrs. Hargrave as she shot forward on the traffic officer's signal.
"Not exactly," rejoined Leslie after a pause, "just a little. He was careful to explain that the car was important that he could not afford to buy much needed new ones.

"Sometimes one finds it a pleasure to go to bed without some dinners."
The car shot through a big arch into the park and was soon circling the lake. The air was brisk and watted to Leslie's nostrils a sweet feminine perfume as his companion's blouse buttered in the breeze, past the lake through the park, out into the open country, and quiet another for time nor distance. They were almost oblivious to the setting dusk until the car came to a sudden and alright stop.

Cleo read his thoughts. "Worrying about the wife," she asked. "Well your worries are minor compared to mine. I bet my old tiger is driving me. We might as well be agreeable company, since we have to stay here," she concluded learning her head on her shoulder. Her hand crept over and touched his hand. She held it hard. Her car had pressed in an hour, and those that did refused to stop fearing a hold up.
"I am getting chilly," murmured Cleo snuggle closer to him. Kayne placed his arm around her begrudging hand. "Say," she snapped, "you are a cold Bonzo aren't you? I should have known better than to expect a married man to be romantic without his supper."

Planning A Healthful Menu
I've been talking to several young chefs and idea of how much thought was given to the preparation of meals. I casually asked a charming young bride what she had planned for dinner today. She said that she had not given it much thought, but John liked porkchops and she would make some hot biscuits. Her younger matron complained about the meat that her family ate, "Why, my boy will eat a pound of meat if I let him," she said. I asked her if he had many vegetables with the meat. She said that she usually cooked potatoes. "But," she confided to me, "it is so much trouble cooking so that I have so many vegetables." I suddenly knew why her boy was so slow in school, due to improper food.

I thought of another family of anaemic children I knew. I was surprised to find out that they ate veraciously, but, my! the foods they ate. No wonder they were anaemic. Now it is a little troublesome to find anaemic foods needed for health and growth, but, I think if the mother of the family realized that the entire health of her family rested on her shoulders she would find it quite an interesting study to find out about foods. It is the most important phase of housekeeping. Have you ever thought that just as builders build his house, we are building our bodies? We are all building our bodies in the body that we want there. Of times we don't realize that our diet has been unbalanced, until some dreaded disease overtakes us.
Usually wherever two or more mothers gather together the conversation sooner or later drifts to some phase of child culture. Every zealous for their children's welfare, they seldom fail to avail themselves of an opportunity for advice and counsel among this supremely important matter. The motive is worthy and commendable, but a danger that should not be overlooked lurks in intimate discussions. There is something about a friendly interchange of ideas that begets an apparent interest in this apparent moment when a group of mothers tell of their children's doings.

The Maryland Dental Society presented a thoroughly interesting, instructive, and dignified program in the auditorium of the Douglass High School last Thursday to an audience conspicuous largely by its absence. Forty-three of the forty-four physicians listed in Coleman's Baltimore City Directory were not there. The registered nurses likewise gave the occasion the go-by. Only three of the principals of the public schools managed to make it. This number includes the principal of Douglass who was scheduled for "remarks" on the program, hence his presence was doubly imperative. Vice-principal Davis was also on hand, of course; but all other principals, acting principals, vice principals, and head-teachers very evidently had previous engagements.

The mission had been planned as a visit to a three-day program to train children the public on safety of dental hygiene. The occasion had been widely advertised. Late places procured it from the school windows and other places. A escape notice, a police notice and had been circulated. Circulars had been distributed through the schools, in which had been reached through the school office. The children would have gone bit; but not the Ballardmen we are, and Balmen we are determined to return to the end of the chapter. If we need to send upon it our fault.

With a sister, Louisa Hall, she became the property owner, Henry, who owned a plantation in Georgia, related that one morning she was 15 or 16 years old she was called by her brother the morning to get up to breakfast for "some very unexamined people" and to get up to serve. "So I get up to kill a chicken made up of the finest biscuits," she said.
"A Mr. Harold who came up on backbeat with my baby for breakfast but busa was ordered to take Mr. Booth's breakfast upsets and Kidd's broken leg. I later that Booth gave me my two twenty-five cent pieces told her to give one to me. I was the first piece of money I ever

ORIGIN OF EASTER
RABBITS AND EGGS
BY C. LESLIE FRAZIER
The term Easter is derived from Ostara (also Easter) the goddess of Spring referred to in the mythology of the Norsemen.
The ancient Norsemen held a festival to Ostara, every year to celebrate the season of new birth.
When we think of Spring, we think of new life—new leaves, new flowers, a new green carpet of grass, a because of an egg, new life is seen in the birth of chick, we can readily see why the Norsemen selected the egg to be the symbol of new life.
Because another rabbit have such large families, the rabbit was selected as a symbol of "much" new life. Hence the association by the Norsemen of eggs and rabbits with the thought of spring, the cause of Spring; and to celebrate Spring, they observed a festival held in honor of Ostara, their Spring god-
The dyeing of eggs, so one legend says, was a festival time of the coloring of their eggs with the colors borrowed from the aurora borealis (the northern lights) and from the dawnning blues of the sky. The earliest associations of Easter were the practice of the Easter which in ancient times serves as a symbol of "a new birth" or Christian Christ is to think of new life for birth, so this ancient custom, like many others, was practiced by the observers in the Christian countries today as a celebration of the resurrection of Jesus. But could not eat eggs during Lent. It soon became a custom to bring eggs to the church to symbolize the joy of the Easter season. The children were told to bring the eggs to the bells which on Thursday to Rome and return Saturday morning. In some countries, god-parents gave colored
Egg picking is a game played by many children. The game consists of a child holding the end of his egg so that the point of it just shows above the end of the egg. The index finger forward until his nail rests on the point of the thumb. This egg is struck by an egg in the egg. The egg is then broken. The break is first then given to the owner of the stronger egg. The game is mostly played by eggs. Another postime indulged in by children, which consists in rolling the eggs over the grass.

Easter Surprise
It was really most unfair. Easter was coming and all the creatures of every group were busily preparing some celebration. Animals took part in a great festival but the Wintels. Six weeks before Mr. Cock spoke to Mistress Hen.
"Now, my mate," he asked, "just what are you planning for Easter?"
"Nothing!" she answered a little sharply.
"And why not?" asked the astonished rooster.
Because I get tired of year after year enjoying lovely white eggs and getting no credit for them. Mistress Hen scolded.
"O! but you do get credit. Everyone knows that you lay the eggs that the children dye and put in their haskets. Why they even get straw to imitate your nest? I comforted them and they do all that, but over the床 they always place an old chocolate rabbit. They seemingly enjoy a common experience. "No, I don't think that. They just add the bumpy for decoration." A wild creature in candy responded Distress Hen in disgust. Why they tell me the ground and run wild all over the woods, if they were placed in this beautiful bathtub. I have even heard that they pave eggs from which to hatch their young.
"What give me an idea?" crowed Mr. Cook in sudden joy.
"What?" asked his wondering mate.
"You shall do something that will
make Miss Bunny sorry.
"What?" repeated Mistress Hen eagerly.
"Just do not give up the eggs which you usually lay for the Easter baskets. You have a host of ten, cover them with your wings and keep them warm. In the ten yellow chicken, there will be ten yellow chicken, there will be that I will, for Miss Runny can't immediately Mistress Hen got busy, she found a dark corner in the loft she secretly laid her eggs there. The other hen and the roosters missed her in the barnyard. Only Mr. Cook knew lordly air and erowed堵 that ever when asked about Mistress Hen, the word spread through the woods like a forest-fire. Easter, the burrow same hares of every description—big hares, little hares, medium shrews. They hopped here and there. At last rabbits were important for something other than the baking dish
Poor Winselot. There was no place in this great celebration for them. They had no member interesting enough to adorn baskets not useful enough to contribute in edible for the occasion. They held one of their great assemblies; but after looking his group over, Mr. Staid Beetle had to confess there was nothing to do. Even the hopeful Philip could not find any Wingslets appropriate for the occasion; and he knew for he spent most his time near Mr. Man. The Wingslets were sad indeed.
Easter came. The skies over-head were lower than usual. For the first time in months, the sun put in a warm and cheerful appearance. Spring flowers bloomed everywhere. The modest violets raised their heads high enough to be seen above the green grasses where they usually hid. The jonquils, hyacinths and tulips laid just the desired touch of color to the predominating green. Old Mother Nature could now truly rejoin as she beheld her image in the classy brook.
Mistress Hen, who had most faithfully stood by her task, was well-rewarded. On that much-looked-forward to morning she led forth ten fully yellow chicks while the whole barn-yard crowded in wonder. Mr. Cock sirutted more fiercely than ever. The jealous hens chucked in disgast.
"Chuck!" chuck!" said one, I don't see why she didn't tell all of us. We could have done as much, had we thought."
"O. no." answered another, "she did not want to tell us." "Would she ask the first." "Stupid one," replied the second "don't you know?"
"Dear me, no!" answered the first. "Because, if you can't really guess, because she did not want us to have prettier chicks, As for me, she knows mine would be more beautiful."
"Well I don't know," answered the first as she looked again at proud Mistress Hen and her brood.
"Stupid, I can't waste time talking to you. This is Easter and I shall parade the yard to be admired. With these words the jealous hen retorts her to the one she has. I am afraid."
Habitats, that hereoffor, had been bashful and timid played holly in the open, so certain were they that on this day at least they would escape injury. All winlets were just about forged and had it not been for Jemble When, whom they insisted on claiming, Winland would not have been mention. It happened in this way:
One little boy in Mr. Man's world, tired of his Easter basket, his beautifully dyed eggs, and rabbits, decided to try a new sport. He began tree climbing. Horror of Horrors! he selected the very tree in which Mr. Billy and Mrs. Jemble Wren had made their home. Their next was in full view from the first climb. Really the boy reached that climb and peeped right into the nest. At the sight of a large head over her and the weight of her, feeling in her best. Jemble Wren became frightened. She flew to a higher branch leaving eight beautiful blue speckled eggs to the injury of the boy.
She was so frightened that her little wings roos and fell as she panted. She was so frightened that one snatch the eggs carelessly and flog. Much to her surprise, however, he bounced his hands shooting "Beautiful! Beautiful! Beautiful!" He scrambled down the tree and Jennie kneely below to see if she was to receive another visit, but she only heard this conversation. She was seen a most beautiful Easter basket, and it isn't like any of yours. Up that tree is a nest of eight delicately marked eggs I have ever seen. "O! let me go up and see them," another voice cried. "the first, "you may disturb the mother and I want them to hatch into beautiful baby birds." She waited patiently to tell her story to Mr. Billy on his return home. Of course he had been praised by her next nest had been praised and waited patiently to tell her story to Mr. Billy on his return home. Of course he had been praised by her next nest had been praised and waited patiently to tell her story to the whole of Winghain. After all, the Winghain and the most beautiful honor did come from the larger members of that realm. The fact remains that the Winghain and the most beautiful honor did come from the larger members of that realm.
Dear Aunt Ray:
I hope you will excuse me for using pencil as I have upset my ink. But never the less I am sending my thank you to the Northwestern station on March 4th. I assisted a dear old lady across the street. The week of March 4th was lost, to the Northwestern station to wait for her mother, who surely did come after me. But I always remember what mother teaches. Do to others as you would like to be done by. During the week of March 4th, orange peeling and threw it away as people may fall and cripple themselves. On March 26th, Saturday, while down the street, I met a Mrs. Brown on Mother street, as her card was in the purse. Very kindly. [DRIVER]

Did you ever drive in an automobile or a buggy, or ever fly? Was the fragrance of the awakening earth in your nostrils, the sound of mating birds in your ears, and the nipping of birds in your ears?
I visited Washington, Sunday, and went to see the Japanese cherry blossoms. We decided to plant the Japanese government gave those trees as more saplings to the United States about ten years ago. The tree now makes the capital down where the lazy potomac River winds around the Southern end of the city. The tree now makes the capital down where the first to the middle of April. Annually people come from far distant and neighborly places to make the nature. If you can imagine row after row of trees blossoming at once as if touched by a fairy wand, you can close up its pink glory.
That hour on Sunday at which I went was ideal. The sun lent its brilliance for a walk across the Potomac creeping in through the curtains and under the robe, sharpened the senss, the humour, the passion and the delighted cities of the people lent an air of comradeship—all of us worshipped at this shrine in the city.

CHILDREN DEAR:
"My hair was so short and curly that it made my life miserable" a charming Chicago society girl says. "I was not popular with men. I knew it was because of my short, ugly hair. Then a neighbor told me about Hi-Ja Quinine Hair Dressing." In a few months everything was different. My hair grew long, straight, soft and silky. Instead of being ashamed of it, it became my joy. Besides its beauty, it also brought me popularity. Now I could have a 'date' every night in the week if I wanted it. I'm engaged to a wonderful boy who thinks my hair is beautiful and is always praising it. I can't thank Hi-Ja enough. It has made me the happiest girl in Chicago. Is your hair as long and as straight as you'd like it to be? Do people compliment you on it?

Just a little fore-runner of Easter, we have in this week's issue a rabbit puzzle. This is the first contest ever held at the society but we and I am hoping that there will be many responses to encourage another. Next week's number, however, comes from the society. Thomas Williams, our young illustrator, is doing a most interesting drawing which you must not miss. I am receiving many letters from readers requesting pictures, but no pictures. I am certain that we should better acquainted, if from time to time the pictures of prize winners come to us, and we would be. Look over the family album and select the most charming picture of yourself, and let it accompany that letter you are writing to.

IDENTITY OF MYSTERY MAN STILL SECRET
IDENTITY OF MYSTERY MAN STILL SECRET
Police Arrest, Try And Free Deaf And Dumb Prisoner Without Knowing Name.
MAGISTRATE IGNORANT OF SIGN LANGUAGE
"Show Him The Way To Go Home," Says Judge Johannsen.
For the first time in the history of the Northwestern a case was brought in, tried and dismissed without the police ever learning the name of the offender.
The man, who seemed to be about 35 years of age was arrested late Saturday night when a patrolman came upon him trying doors in the neighborhood of Pennsylvania and Prescott County to prove to be unwieldy dumb and the officials were stumped as to how to docket him. They left a blank space after his name and locked him up until the Magistrate arrived next morning. Of the 50 odd people he could talk the sign language, and the man was unable to read or write. Finally in desperation, Magistrate Johannsen asked if anyone had ever seen him before. One spectator said that he had seen him working around a garage where ever he could (to be done) to talk to him. "You have to show him everything you want him to do" chelated that witness. "Well, please show him the way to go home," said the Magistrate. The blank space still remains in the garage, the one who occupied cell 12 Saturday night and his identity is as dark a mystery as ever.

Pennsylvania Ave. And Biddle Busiest Corner In N. W. Balto.
1,022 Things, Including Men, Women, Autos, Horses, Cats And Dogs Pass During One Hour Reporter Finds
What is the busiest corner in Northwest Baltimore?
An AFRO reporter sent out to locate this place decided that the intersection at Biddle and Pennsylvania avenue was the most traversed thoroughfare in the section after an hour count shared that a total of 022 times that corner between the hour of one and two p. m. Monday. Count will be taken at another corner next week.
Of this number, 314 were male pedestrians. Women accounted for 108 in sitting on the Monday wash, because they totaled only 163. Most children were engaged in their lessons in the various schools in the section, but enough played hookey to allow 87 to be seen during the lesson. 860 mobiles passed the corner, containing from one to seven passengers each. These were of all makes and designs. The effect that the automobile is having on the prestige of the house could only score 27. Mules were even fewer and far between, only four being seen.
Street car service could be complained about, because only 19 passed in both directions during the hour. Public Service Commissioners say that a car is sent from the car barn even for minutes. This, 24 cars should have passed during an hour. The United Railways and Electric Company was five cars short. Three push cart vendors were seen selling their wares. There were two Italian banana merchants and one fish salesman. In spite of the fact that this corner is surrounded by a number of small alleys, but two cats dared ap-

Stove Lifter Felt Like Hatchet To Wife Who Was Hit
How she was assaulted by her husband with a "hatchet" two months ago and suffered a probable fracture of the skull was revealed by Mrs. Eise West, 259 W. Hoffman street, when her husband, Bernard W. Eise West, was on a non-support charge. Sunday, West, who lives at 802 Leadenhall street, was arrested on his arrival in the city Saturday night and held at the Northwestern for non-support. When notified, Mrs. West said that she knew nothing of the charge did not allow any support him. She did however, want to press the assault charge. A scar on Mrs. West's head and the man's confession that he had struck her, not with a hatchet, but with a stove lifter, substantiated the charge and committed to jail in default. West is a coal passer on a steamship, he said.
Say He Robbed Blind Man
William Hawkins, Vine street, was arraigned in the Western District police court. Saturday, after Cleveland Minnick, blind, white, told police that he had been robbed. Hawkins was identified by Edward Mitchell, proprietor of room 100 in room follow the blind room from the place. He was held in $2,500 bond by Magistrate Joseph Raft.
Newsie Hit By Auto
While running from the east to the west side of Druid Hill avenue, Cleveland Scott. 8. 518 Pearl street, newsboy, was hit and wounded down by an auto driven by Harry Shapiro white, 2819 Waldorf avenue, on Friday.
Mrs. White, who resides at 848 Harlem Ave., mother of three fine children and wife of Dr. J. A. White, prominent dentist, gladly recommends Bond Bread.
"I wouldn't bread but Bond it to my friends, home-made."
"I wouldn't use any other bread but Bond. When I serve it to my friends, they think it is home-made." Mrs. M. S. white
BECAUSE of Bond Bread's home-like flavor and firm, close-knit texture, thousands of women, like Mrs. White, have stopped baking bread at home. Bond is made as the housewives showed us, from the same pure ingredients you would use in your own kitchen: Its constant quality is guaranteed by the bond which appears on every wrapper. From this bond—Bond Bread gets its name. More than a million careful housewives serve home-like Bond on their tables every day.
