MALONE GIVEN $40,000CASH IN SETTLEMENT Other Property In Their Joint Names To Be Divided Equally PORO RECEIVER TURNS OVER $82,000 BONDS Court And Receiver Costs Will Amount To Over $9,000 ST. LOUIS, MO., (A. N. P., Special)—Aaron Malone will get less than $50,-000 in his claims against Poro College. This is the word that comes from reasonably authentic sources and those who know claim that the accash settle- ment is $5,500 out of when Mr. Ma- nuel's lawyers must 1 Mr. Malone, who three Poro College for the $2,000,000 toilet goods manufacturing concern, founded by his wife to the hands of the treasured months and sued him for divorce, received last week less than $40,000 in cash to be held in arrest. The terms of the agreeance are complied with. $8,000 Costs The total costs allowed in the case for court and re-relationship are set for court and re- versibility are set Mrs. Malone 10,000 A attorney authorized a statement last week that Mrs. Malone keeps all the real estate in her name. Mr. Malone keeps all in his name. He kept two valuable pieces he is holding because they are the home which she provided for old couples. These he reconnected. Mrs. Malone's attorney said, "He sent my object in this suit from my point of view, was to save Poro College. It goes to Mrs. Malone free and untouched." No Partnership "Malone's claim to a partnership in Poro never even formed a basis for settlement. It had no foundation in fact, and was abandoned completely by his forces when they decorated that he and the same court in another case, and repeated over another case that he was not a partner in Poro and had never been belonged to my wife. Mr. Malone was her husband and the naturally contemplated making him an allowance in case of separation or divorce as his intimate right or lower interest would require according to in Missouri, but about one-third of what he easily could have had, if this foolish law suit had not been started. Wouldn't Expose Life "It was an unpleasant case. When the record of Mr. Malone's life was finally completed, we preferred not to expose it. "Again the court had appointed a receiver without warning or notice and as we know without reason and such action was hardly encouraging. Mrs. Malone to go to trial before such." Mr. Malone agrees to give a full receipt and absolute release of any or all interest in any of her property or effects. Counsel has been empowered with authority to arrive at final arrangements and the terms of the divorce which will probably be soon were agreed upon. Mr. Malone has acquired personal charge of her business which because of her continued residence in the building and the loyalty of the Poro force had not suffered as much from the rampage of the receiver as had been feared. Edgar E. McDaniel, office manager, and Charles S. Stone, personnel manager, who had been fired by the while receiver are back at their desks. Mr. Malone reappointed them almost immediately. Flowers, telegraph, fruit, mottoes and hundreds of letters and telegraphs of congratulation and love have poured in on Mrs. Malone who has been forced to add an extra personal secretary to keep up this national-wide appreciation of her victory. **WHERE HOME** Conrad Pobreko is the white receiver, turned over to Mrs. Malone all her property including $20,000 worth gil edge bonds and other person effects, as well as all records of Poro's work in his possession. The receiver did not show his face personally at the college but let his assistant handle the transfer. There were "hallelujahs" and rejoicing he left. Mrs. Malone Keeps Branches Besides Poro College, Mrs. Malone retains branches in Chicago, Philadelphia and Quincy, dwellings on both Market street and St. Perdida. Specifically, Mr. Malone gets property on Lucky street and in East Louis. Malone Under Arrest At Springfield, Illinois Worried, Nervous Breakdown Again Because Lawyers Got $35,000 Leaving Him But $9,000 ST. LOUIS, MO., (A. N. P.)—Aaron Malone had another mental collapse immediately following the settlement of his receivership suit last week, and was arrested in Springfield, Illinois, where he was taken into custody because of his unbecoming conduct. When arrested Malone said he was being driven crazy since his marital entanglements. Such an ignorance leading to persons who he knew Malone did not support the rumor that he was not satisfied with the terms of the receivership suit settlement. It was authoritatively learned that while Malone contended for a half-interest in the million-dollar Poro College, the money involved in the entire settlement did not exceed $50,000. Malone accepted as his part $9,000 and his attorneys were paid $35,000, according to information given by one of Mrs. Malone's attorneys. Malone was brought to St. Louis by friends who found him in the Sargent County Jail. During the morning of last Thursday he had entered the home of a former St. Louis friend who was absent, and the friend's wife, who did not know Malone, called the police. In Springfield, Malone declared he did not know how he got there, but his St. Louis attorney, Edward W. Foristel, said that Malone had announced his intention of going to Springfield to live with a friend there for an indefinite period. A month ago, Malone injured himself by leaping through a first-floor window at 212 Coop avenue, where he was staying with a friend. B. J. Kirkman, who explained Malone had been brooding over his domestic troubles, At City Hospital No. 2, where he was treated for cuts from window glass, physicians said he was in "an extremely nervous state," and recommended a rest. It is understood he will have to undergo a thorough examination by doctors. MUSICIANS SAWWOULDN'T LET COLOR LINE DEACON LEAD IN TWAIN CHURCH PRAYER Southern Hotel Forced To Square Deal As Federation Mects 15 COLORED DELEGATES ARE IN ATTENDANCE Jim Crow Bars In Lobby And Elevator Finally Removed There are about 500 white and 15 colored delegates in attendance at the session of the American Federation of Musicians in session at the Southern Hotel, here. According to the president, M Webber, white, the convention came to Baltimore only on the assurance that the Southern Hotel management would accord all delegates the same consideration. However, upon arrival the colored delegates were ordered to use the freight elevator of the hotel. When complaint was made to Mr. Webber, he announced to the delegates, that as he did not feel that he was any better than the colored delegates, they should all use the freight elevator. So many used this elevator that a complaint was made to the manager and colored delegates were given permission to use the passenger elevator. Delegate Jerome H. Lee, of Philadelphia, Pa., Local 591, was seated in the lobby of the hotel smoking a cigarette when someone whom he thought was the manager, told him he could not smoke there because that lobby was for white people only. He reported this incident to Mr. Webber, who notified the management that the convention would be taken out of the hotel immediately unless this matter was adjusted. The manager corrected this and the colored delegates have not been further annoyed. Reception At Pythian Colored delegates will be entertain- (Continued on Page Seven.)

Witnesses Accuse First Baptist Church Pastor Of High Handed Tactics FINANCIAL CONDITION AIRED AT HEARING Witnesses Say Money Matters Caused Split Between Pastor And Officers It was testified in Circuit Court this week that the Rev. Albert J. Greene, pastor of First Baptist Church wouldn't allow a deacon to lead in prayer. An itemized statement showing that the church and congregation contributed more than $3,000 last year for salary, traveling expenses and upkeep of the pastor and his wife, was among the high spots in this sensational flight in which the deacon board and the pastor have been engaged during the five days trial in which the court room has been filled with church members and interested parties. The trial, which began last Wednesday, was brought by deacons Louis Miller, Irving Moore, George Meyers, George Cooper, Charles Proctor, Solomon Smith, Campbell A. Jones and Bailey Brook', who claim that the pastor illegally ousted them for the purpose of putting himself in absolute and unqualified control of the policies and finances of the church. In an injunction, they asked that the pastor be restrained from inter- year for salary, traveling expenses and upkeep of the pastor and his wife, was among the high spots in this sensual fight in which the deacon board and the pastor have been engaged during the five days' trial in the court room has been full- STANDARD LIFE RECEIVER LASTS JUST ONE DAY Temporary Receiver Named Friday 1s Removed In Court Monday FINAL HEARING WILL COME UP SATURDAY Bishop Flipper's Committee Fights National Benefit Contest ATLANTA, GA.—A temporary receiver for the Standard Life Insurance Company appointed last Friday was discharged Monday. This was the statement of S. W. Rutherford, general manager of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, which recently purchased the Standard Life. Mr. Rutherford told the AFRO that he had just received word from his agents in Atlanta that the court had appointed the temporary receiver without a hearing and as soon as the facts became known had discharged him. The final hearing in the case will come up Saturday, Mr. Rutherford said, and there isn't any doubt but that when it is over the court will sanction control of the Standard Life by the National Benefit. Custodians Named ATLANTA Ba. (Special Dispatch to the Associated Negro Press)—Uneasy ties the head of Standard Life. A fight of huge proportions which has been threatening beneath the surface ever since the National Benefit Insurance Company of Washington took over the much sold Atlanta Company recently, came last Friday when customer were appalled when the charge of Standard Life assets, to preserve them for the policy holders with a view of mutualizing the company for the benefit of the policy holders.

Flipper, in which the merger, of the National Benefit and the Standard Life of Arkansas was attacked as fraudulent. Bishop Flipper The committee representing a group of policy holders, was said to be up in arms against that phase of the arrangement which involved liens charged against their policies to pay the white Arkansas group $200,000 in seven years bearing six per cent interest, making a total accumulation of interest commission charges and legal expense approximating $500,000 all of which was to be charged against liens to policy holders. Impairment $1,000,000 The committee represented that the National Benefit had not put in any money at all for the assets, but took title and charged the full purchase price against the insurance information sent A.N.P., the impairment of the company is around one million dollars. It had been hoped that the sensational coup by National Benefit would result in restoring Standard Life, once the financial principal of group of presentation asserts that it will be some time yet before Standard Life achieves peace.

Finley Wilson will change the place of meeting of the next grand lodge, which is scheduled to convene in New York city next August. In the event that the injunction shall not be vacated, he was instructed and empowered to select another city in another state of his choice where the grand lodge can legally and lawfully hold its 1927 session by the grand trustees, who met here, last Friday to consist the report of committees of lawyers who made an investigation of the right of the order to hold its annual session in New York City. Wilson Instructed Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson was instructed to inform Dr. Hudson J. Oliver, chairman of the committee of arrangements for the grand lodge in New York City that if the injunction will hold its next session it conforms with the action of the grand lodge in Cleveland last August. In a spirited contest between Detroit and New York, it selected the latter city. Dissolution of the injunction must be obtained on the basis of the Grand Lodge Exalted Ruler before June 15. If not, he is directed to call the grand lodge session to meet where there are no legal barriers. Grand Lodge To Help The resources of the grand lodge are the efforts of Harlem Elks to have the injunction dissolved. The grand legal adviser, Perry W. Howard, Washington, D. C., and the entire legal machinery of the order are also to aid in efforts to vacate the injunction. The resolution giving the grand lodge the effect of meeting to change the place of meeting if the injunction is not dissolved was signed by four members of the board of trustees. Colonel John R. Marshall, R. E. Pharrow, Atlanta, Ga., Wayman Wilkerson, Memphis, Tenn., and Edward P. Berry. One member did not sign. It is David T. Cardwell, of Gary, Ind. Committee of Lawyers The trustees based their action upon the findings of the committee of lawyers, who found as a conclusion of law that it would be in violation of the law that it would be held by the grand lodge to hold its annual session in New York State until the Gratton law is repealed and the injunction against the order is dissolved. The committee of lawyers who made the investigation to determine whether the grand lodge session could be legally held in New York City consisted of Judge William H.

EXELENTO MEDICINE COMPANY ATLANTA, GEORGIA AGENTS WANTED EVERYWHERE—WRITE FOR PARTICULARS Page Two WOMEN Still Time Say M Still Time Says Alumnus To Make Howard Fund A Reality HOWARD, DEAR OLD HOWARD By ALUMNIS Perhaps the closeness of the Howard Commencement may remind friends of Howard University to send that ONE DOLLAR for which the writer has been appealing weekly. In the past, the commencement will become a matter of history. A few faithful followers of Howard University have manifested ONE DOLLAR worth more than the commencement seated a hill in the capital of the nation. Time still remains for the colored people to complete an endowment fund for Howard University. The sacrifice of just ONE DOLLAR a piece on the part of one-tenth of the Negro population of this country would mean the endowment of Howard University does not exist, possible that the colored people would pass up this opportunity, but a glance at this column tells the diretale tale. Racial greatness is determined largely by educational institutions which prepare that race for service. It is impossible to reach heights of racial achievement on slender educational manhood and womanhood of any race are built upon solid education. Perhaps the Negro is satisfied with his position in American life, hoping that he may yet find the royal road to the solution of his problem, but he is not sure. He and pens the most attractive articles on the subject. Indifference and sloth, however, follow immediately when he is asked to put his hand in the pocket. He means advancement of his group. Institutions that depend solely upon the support of another race cannot hope to render the same kind of advancement to their petulated by the race which it pursues. The withdrawal of funds by Nordic charity would choke to death every big university in this country. The colored people will perhaps never succeed until after disaster has struck him. Largest Institution Howard University is the largest institution of its kind for the preparation. Negroes for the several Negro colleges live and prosper, for its fundamental purpose is to send out trained men to serve in the war, the twinkling of an eye, however Howard University can become a relic of the past.

Indig- leads sooner to poetry than it does to the repairment of a danger done Agent Of People For over fifty years, the colored people of America have regarded Howard University merely as an agent of the people, never intersting themselves, and it has just been taken for granted that the university would run along. Yearly, Howard has turned out doctors, lawyers, teachers and students, but the Negroes of this country have never paused long enough to raise questions about the support of permanence of this great institution. Not even the recurring point of orientation toward appropriations aroused them. Unfortunately, the colored people's attitude to date, if they really have manifested an attitude towards the support of Howard University, has not been true to serve the Negro race, but place the responsibility of its support upon Congress. Their tacit policy seems to be to persuade public funds to support private institutions, to support private anthrophy will not undertake the job. Newer Philanthropy The policy may or may not be objectifiable, but the day is rapidly dawning for a newer philanthropy, a new model of teaching, and endowing private institutions for colored youth upon the Negro race. If any race can support its own private institutions of learning there surely is no impropriety in requiring that race to do so. Charity begins when honest effort fails for lack of need. The colored people of this country can easily support Howard University and all the other universities which are now making drives for funding, hoping that philanthropy will MARRIAGES Albert Brooks, 21.

Surely, the writ- ing of the Constitution, philanthropy, but he would first show the colored people their responsibility, means of meeting their responsibility. Palms Down All that the colored people need to do, if they really want their own institutions of learning endowed, is to adopt the policy of turning their own institutions up. Begging all the time for funds that are easily accessible is neither becoming nor race strengthening. If there does not exist enough race difference of these institutions, there may be raised a serious question as to whether such institutions have a right to live. One of the biggest possible achievements within easy reach of the colored people of America is the endowing of Howard University with their dollars. They ought to willingly pay for the education they cost each person only ONE DOLLAR, in the form of a cash or a money-order, made payable to Howard University, but sent to the office of the president of the university. The benefit be tried and watch the beneficial result upon the race. Race Consistencyfulness Race Consistencyfulness is solidarity and racial respect will be the inevitable consequences of such a movement. It has ever been the opinion that colored people cannot be considered equal. Their ability in putting over successful dances and plenics has been well attested, but the belief still persists that they are not so eager for the success of their performance measured in terms of entertainment.

A. A. C. P., before an audience which cheered him repeatedly. "The White men of this country settled the Indian question by killing them," he said. "They can't settle the Negro problem that way there is no problem of them. And the Negro is willing to work; the Indian wasn't." "Were a logical race, the Nordic race to which we belong. And when I say that I'm not boasting; I am appointing. We send missionaries to China to save the Chinamen, but we do not care to help the Indians here." "The very people who deny your rights the most are the very ones who are going up and down the country calling us nuthers because we do not like them." **PROBHINIST** "The same people who do most in violating every law and constitutional provision for the colored race talk most about the color of the people," he said. "Indians could forget about beer for awhile and turn their attention to some other parts of the constitution more outrageously violated. "Not because of color is there this discrimination against you in this country. Men from India are welcomed in the most exclusive homes. Not because of race, but because you were once slaves. It takes a long while for the soil of slavery to wear off. People can forget. White people have come through exactly what you have come thru, only they are farther away from slavery. The ancestors of all white people were once slaves, but they have forgotten that. You are only some six years old. The hundred years you worked for in this country in this country of the free and the land of the knake, to which you were unwilling in chains." **NEVER FREE** "People don't get freedom by laws, but by the conduct of their fellowmen. You were liberated, yes, but you were never free." "The only place the white people give you an opportunity is in battles. Sometimes in battles they front you in front of you, get you into it, get you into it to get yourselves. You can't get it from the Whites and you can't get it from the skies. DEPEND ON YOURSELFES. "The greatest weapon is the ballot-box, and you've thrown it away. After you are counted before it is in the box. Vote, yes, vote independently." "The future is with you, a long dark and sometimes bloody road, but science, art and literature are with you and all the humanities. Some day you are most certain to win.

AND ZIONISTS NOW ASSURED Commissions Of Two Denominations Meet In Pittsburgh Next Week UNITED M. E. CHURCH IS NAME SUGGESTED Schools To Consolidate, No Two Bishops Will Remain In A State CHICAGO, IL. (ANP)—All of the bishops of the A. M. E. and A. M. E. Zion connections, general officers, and interested friends will gather in Pittsburgh, June 21 for separate and joint sessions in developing the program. The promises to be one of the most historical gatherings of religious bodies ever held in America. The sessions will be held in Bethel A. M. E. Church. The various commissions, made up of representatives of both nominations, are working on one or the other chief discussions is that of a name for the combined churches. Several have been suggested for the name which is given to the great priest "United Methodist Episcopal." According to one of the prominent bishops on the commission: "There is no Methodist church but having a name, it permits any other Methodists to join us at a later date, if they so elect. With this change the name be given to the denomination and 'Zion' from the other, and we would retain the basic name of 'Methodist Episcopal.' There is no Methodist church will re-arrange Episcopal districts so that no Zion and A. M. E. bishop will be in the same state. Schools of the two denominations will be consolidated when possible. A commission of lawyers will work out the legal questions involved in consolidating church officers and transferring property to the church community. While there is still some small opposition in both denominations relative to the consummation of a new law, the state provides that a vast majority of officers and laymen favor organic union, and are working energetically to this end. The union of the men will be overhired, and enable ministers to receive larger salaries, thus opening the way for a type of religious leadership that will help religious work with largely increased efficiency.

PA.-Clarence pressed launched his local campa rg Meeting To A Flood Not God's Way To Punish Dixie Whites Flood Not God's Way To Punish Dixie Whites By WILLIAM PICKENS (A. N. P.) Many preachers misrepresent God. None of us know anything about him. But the Chicago preacher who recently discussed God in relation to the Mississippi Flood, displayed the greatest ignorance of all when he said: "God has poured his irresistible waters over the fields of the south to punish the white people for their mistreatment of the Negro." Now this preacher does not deserve to be attacked. No preacher deserves to be attacked. But this superstition idea does need to be attacked and destroyed: the foolish idea that God has any love for Mississippi Negroes which he does not have for Mississippi white people. Let us see: Eight out of every ten of the flood sufferers are colored people; in some localities nine out of every ten. The lowlands of the Mississippi Valley are inhabited mostly by innocent black people. The fatal flood has swept away from them everything—but left the white man's land. The biggest loser is the Negro. Not only the white man's land, the short Law will be his premises and "forced labor" will mean black labor. Blacks will be put to work helping to clear the white man's property, without wages or reward. Being poor and homeless, they will be yoked with new debts in order to earn money for the Negro. They will be able to obtain the trap doors of "martial law," they will all find themselves more completely enslaved than before the flood. "René" will be given to them misguidedly and last—arter all the whites have been taken care of. In short, Mississippi Flood will be simulated in the trap doors of "martial law." How in the name of God can a Negro preacher ascribe this horror to God and expect anybody to love God for it? It looks rather as if the Devil took charge of this river and this whole business. Besides, it is a great superstition a superstition to think that some special predator is fighting their battles against their oppressors. That is a bad doctrine. People must feel the need of fighting their own battles. God is not "on the Negro's side." He thinks just as well—to say the least, of the white people. Furthest from it is just as regarding a superstition to think that storms and crop failures were caused by witches. Certainly if God meant to hit the white people of the South by this Flood, he made a wide miss on one of his biggest throws. God is not on the side of weaklings and failures.

A resolution demanding his return in 1928 was read and approved among antoniously attentive members of the church ever witnessed here. Bishop and Mrs. Hurst, and Bishop Vernon visited Sinai Temple, and declared its interior is as imposing and magnificent as Sinai. Bishop Romney provided their support to Bishop Gaines in helping him through their districts to pay for Sinai Temple. Church Helps Flood Sufferers MEMPIIIS, Tenn.

Following the welcome address by the Rev. W. W. Allen and a response by the Rev. Arthur J. Payne, the appointment of committees was made and the body got quickly down to the actual work of the mission, where the sermon was preached by the Rev. J. R. Butler, who as alternate filled the place of the Rev. A. J. Greene, who was engaged in church litigation in the Circuit Court. In the annual address of the president, the Rev. D. G. G. Walker, on Monday, the general program of the convention was outlined, and a bid for harmony Other speakers at the afternoon session included the Rev.

The Secretary introduced the minister, and the Rev. R. E. Winston, installed them. Just before the new president, the Rev. M. J. Naylor, took the chair, the former President, the Rev. J. L. Carr Rev. A. J. Mitchell gave a report of the Morgan College Campaign so far. The Washington District retested the Boy Scouts programed $2,500 and from the outside subscriptions, including churches, $10,000. Morgan College is 60 years old and has $1,000,000 worth of property. He says that they have no guarantor. He asked the Morgan Campaign. He urged the churches to continue their collections. People who are constantly dodging criticism : aid keeping to themselves are not worth as much to society. He was working for government but sometimes kick over the traces as radicals. This was the view of Dr. Charles Stewart in his Sunday morning sermon, at Trinity A. M. E. Church. The Apsthe Peter, he said, was well known, he was lightened to he on his Master's breast and dream of sitting at the favored place in heaven.

It is expected that the sermon will close next Sunday morning with "The Christ Message for Today." The Vesper Quarterie, of Boston gave their scheduled concert to a great audience filling the house and the church. It is rare in which an audience in Union Church more enthusiastically expressed approval. The sinners at the close of the program were called several times back to the rostrum by the congregation, from a very delighted audience. We expect them in a return engagement. The especial item now of interest before us is the is the coming of Norrland who is programmed for a recital Monday night, May 23rd. Mr. Dennis has achieved quite an enviable record and is a rounded musician. He began playing at his home in Kansas City, Mo. At later he finished a course in nine organ and related subjects at Western University. Then after studying at the Chicago Musical College, he went south and in five successive years at Wiley College he produced Gaul's "Holy City," Rossini's "Statal," and Massen's "Mendelssohn's "Elliah," and Massen's "Mary Magdalene." Mr. Dennis as a vocalist, is possessed of a rich baritone voice or rehearsal skills. Music lovers of Baltimore should need no great urging to be present and hear what is likely to be the most enjoyable program of the sort given to him. Mr. Dennis will be assisted by the church orchestra and local talent.

Walker, in a sermon at the Madison Street Presbyterian Church, who added that, "even men who profess the Christian faith come to him in time of trouble because they have no other place to go." Earthly association and temporal things may give outward consolation, but it takes communion with a heavier nature. Christ, of man, he declared. Christ is the only source to which we can go to obtain the spiritual satisfaction required by the soul. Christ fills every need of man, answers all questions and completes the moral and spiritual nature of man, he declared. MORGAN DEAN SCORES CHURCH FAULT FINDERS "It requires decidedly less effort and mentality to find fault, tear down and destroy than it does to build up and construct." Dean John W. Haywood of Morgan College told the congregation of Sharp Street M. E. Church, in a sermon, Sunday. "Most of the sinners who are out of the church remain so because the members think they are too good to mingle with them," he declared. Christ did not criticise sinners but did criticise hycriocrites. Dr. Haywood spoke in the interest of the church and a collection of $261.75 was raised in behalf of the institution.

Fonville of It is a hopeful sign that Christians of all denominations can there is a growing feeling of Christian unity; that the old barriers of creed that long separated followers of Christ with warring factions and that the old bigotries and narrowness and prejudice that weakened the church and dishonored by their great fundamental agreements and divided less and less by their petty differences about a growing Christian unity and pray God for a larger measure of it. Great reforms do not come in situations where there must be time and room for growth and development, elimination of the false and expansion of the unlitual possibilities the infinite. Some one must give birth to the idea and others must work for the consummation of the unlitual possibilities. Mushroom re- WATER'S A. M. E. CHURCH ASQUARE NEWT, REV. M. H. DAVIS, D. D.

SCOTT CITAL GUARDS HOLD ALL REFUGEES IN MISSISSIPPI FLOOD CAMP Saturday, May 21, 1927 DURKEE FINDS EX-SLAVE GIRL BEECHER SOLD FROM PULPIT "Pinkey," Whose Auction Rocked Nation, Returns At Age Of 76 LAWYER'S WIFE NOW AND CHURCH'S GUEST White Congregation Back In 60's Subscribed $2000 For Maryland Child BROOKLYN, N. Y.—One of the most stirring events in American history was vividly recalled here Sun, when Mrs. James Hunt, the little slave "Pinkey" "sold" in the Plymouth Church by Henry Ward Beecher for $900, before the civil war, sat in this same pulpit in an unusually glorious fulfillment of the emancipation which that occurrence helped to bring about. Mrs. Hunt, who is now 76 years of age, and the wife of a Washington lawyer, had gone to Stanley Duree, now the director of the famous church, not only to commemorate the day when it was "Duree," she said, "because the green is theeken; but to lend her efforts to raising funds for the Nazarene Congregational church which Plymouth church is helping to do now." Address Concrezation Following introductory remarks by Dr. Durkee, an older woman, she said of the men and women, who as children were present when she turned off, address her. "There can be but few of us present," she said, "who will be able to recall Mr. Beecher as he stood upon this rostrum, and recollection of this time is very meager, only one incident standing out in my childish mind. My hair was combed back from my face and held in place with a one, and a child's children were at that. Exactly Mr. Beecher had not noticed this before I was put upon the platform, but when he did see it he came quietly to me, and I was able to reply, "What was anything in your hair except what God put there." The other memorable events seemed not to have impressed me very much, and I am aware of the hold of them is the result of repeatedly being told the story. Love For Church Which Freed Hor "I am glad of this opportunity to publicly acknowledge that I have always had a feeling of deep love and gratitude toward this church, congregation did so much for me. "These agents of the Almighty smatched me from a fate that I had never known, and I know as my dear mother and brothers have never been heard of by any of our family since that separation. "These Christians did not stop there, but saw to it that I was given a start on the road to good citizenship, and we will their willful assistance. I have looked upon all of this as a trust reposed in me and have endeavored to shape my life in keeping them as an amable one, but I have tried to help in the lowly places. I have a wife and a mother, and I have taught to instill the principles of a Christian life. I have found, as those whom we honor today found, that service is the highest expression of Born In Maryland "Pinker" was Sally Maria Diggs in the days when she was sold. She in the 1980s sold Tobacco Mary Jane Diggs in Baltimore. Though she lost forever her mother and brothers in that sale, her grandmother was sold. She in the 1990s bought her own grandmother and succeeded for a time in leasing the services of her little granddaughter. She informed of the girl and brought to Brooklyn to be auctioned from the pulpit. The sale was set for February 6. 1860. On the crowd crowds assembled at the church by her owners was $900. So intense however, was the feeling in the great crowd in the church that as Beecher bids her own on the pulp the bids were far far higher. More than $2,000 was finally bid and paid for the freedom of the little J. A. Rogers' travels in Italy will be found on the Magazine page. WOMAN'S HAIR CATCHES MAN Miss May Griffon writes: "My hair was so short, sniery and dry and had no life in it at all, it simply was impossible to look as attractive as my hair, so I tried most everything with the men.

C., the daughter of the late sale from Cook is lost, but the paper freeing "Pinky" is still preserved. After her freedom had been gained, she attended Howard University, returned to Washington and married a lawyer. Today she is a grandmother. Hunt's first teaching post was in Annapolis, Md. While in Annapolis she met James E. Hunt, another school teacher. He was a graduate of the Patent Office, and she retreated to housekeeping. They had five daughters, of whom only Eva Surgeon Rose Terry, after the author who tossed her ring into the offering at Plymouth Church, the ring which Henry Ward Beecher, in slipping it into the finger, dubbed the freedom ring". Mrs. Hunt says she gave the ring to her own Rose Terry, who lost it. Mrs. Hunt, who is a government employee, recalled yesterday the visit she and her mother made the Beechers when she was only three. Mr. Hunt, who has retired, did not come to New York with his wife. Mrs. Hunt and her daughter exchanged to return to Washington Tuesday. At the morning service Sunday she sat in the Beecher pew, with Eva and Andrew, and daughter of the famous preacher. I was almost choked with feeling," she said afterward. The tears came to my eyes. "I was so afraid of Frexy. For many years all track of her was lost. Beecher some years after the war attempted to trace her, but failed. It was through a friend, the time president of Howard University that she was eventually traced and brought back to Brooklyn to attend the memorial service to the great preacher Mrs. Hunt stayed at the Hotel St. George with her daughter, Miss Eva Hunt, and Miss Beatrice Beecher, daughter of Henry Ward Beecher.

Council Chambers Packer And Desks Are Banker With Flowers McGUINN. AND EMERSON IN THE SECOND ROW Nine Republicans On One Side, Nine Democrats On The Other Amid pomp and ceremony which bids fair to surpass anything in recent years, the eighteen newly elected city councilmen were sworn into office this afternoon at 2 P. M. before a record breaking crowd. One hour before time for the swearing in of the councilmen, the chair and corridor of the third ward were packed to its fullest capacity by friends of the newly elected men who are to help shape the policy of the new administration for the next four years. FLORAL DESIGNS POUR IN WHILE MEN ARE BEING SWORN IN The desks of the men who are to occupy the councilmanic seats were completely covered with flowers as a tribute to their success. The desks of Walter S. Emerson and Warner T. McGuinn were banded from the floor far above the seat with carnations, chrysanthemums and roses of every description. REPUBLICANS OCCUPY NORTH SIDE—DEMOCRATS ON SOUTH SIDE. Pursuant to custom the nine republicans will occupy the north side of the chamber and the democrat the south side. Messrs. Ellison, McGuinn and Emerson will occupy seats in the seated row among the republicans which will run Ellison first from the center of the room McGuinn in the middle of the row and Emerson on the extreme north end. Republicans Spring Sensation Immediately after Mayor Broconen had sworn in the councilmen, the election of officers for the ensuing term began. J. O. Mara of the six district was placed in nomination by one of his Democratic colleagues for Vice-President. The steam roller of the Jackson-Pindget gang seems to have been well oilled for the trick, as it had been deemed to vote by a former J. O. Mara of the six in nomination J. Warner Burges. Miller, Republican, of the third district, moved to make the election of O Mara unanimous. This gave indications that the Kelly faction was to be blocked in the matter of manning the new register.

MUSICIANS SHOULD READ MUSICAL PUBLICATIONS Just what would be your opinion of the doctor who never looked inside a medical journal or a lawyer who never read the court records? Strange as it may seem, the writer ventures to say that the 2000 course listed in the last census a very small percentage read music journals, and yet in the United States alone there are several publications which bring to the reader the world's happenings in music. Of those books, the "Musician Observer," the "Musician," the "Violinist," and one or two others are full of helpful suggestions for music students and teachers. Numerous articles of interest upon every phase of the Art are written by musical authorities and are of immense value because they live away from the great art centers. Of the weekly publications the "Musical Courier," "Musical America," the "Musical Digest," the Music News, and the leader "Public News," all the art center of the world. None of these publications cost more than twenty-five cents and what musician, especially of our group, can afford to be without this helpful information? DO YOU KNOW THAT? By Claremont Morrow WHITE.

Tim began as a figure in the public eye as a pickin' back in 1900 when he was a playwright. He was later applauded for prize fighting and securing cauliflower ears. Just before the World War Tim was a jockey for some of the leading stables, riding at the Derby at Louisville, and to the hurrahs of Mexican orchestra. In Jamaica he showmaned that overweight attacked him and he returned to the stage. He and his wife have toured extensively in Europe and the Orient. Tim says that his most humorous experience was wilting Chinese actors who were supposed to be killed in drama, now to before the applause of their audiences.

Arnold writes concerning the reception given in Nashville to Gonzell White's "Jamboree" Company, which has just closed a week's run at the Palace, Memphis. He says in part, "This is Miss White's first visit to Nashville the season of 1919, at which time she was appearing in vaudeville. Besides being an accomplished little artist, she is also a master of the saxophone." "The cast consists of twenty-five people. The band and orchestra are Smith, and include Jake Fraser, Edward Temple, William Basie, Gale Gary and William Strickland. Each night the band appeared in front of the Bijou." DUDLEY SUGGESTS MANAGERS MEET By S. H. Dudley I visited the Elmo Theatre in Pittsburgh on my way, left and found Mr. Meyer BURNING COMPANY" playing to fair business. And in Cleveland Saturday evening I visited the Globe and found Hocamp's "SMART SET MIN-STRELS" playing to fair business. Now it looks as though the business all over the country is about the same, and just what can be more invigorate than business is puzzling not to me, but all showmen and theatre owners. I really do believe that a meeting of all colored theatre owners and producers should be called to thrash out the situation. It is true that the theatre is not a stable attraction, but they are not making any money for the managers or themselves. Business falls off in the summer, but never has it fallen as it has this spring, and so early as it has begun, it is going to discuss the problem thoroughly and exchange ideas and try and boost business. I think the managers would all be willing to meet, the producers would, and I am sure that each theatre owner would like to express his ideas. They might be harmed, so why not call this meeting as soon as possible? Who is willing? Let me hear from you. I think Chicago, Cleveland, or St. Louis are the proper places as they are centrally located. Of course Washington is my preference. You know why.

Comedienne Modiste Pretty Star Performer Says Homemaking Is Her Biggest Talent In Miss Violet Speedy, vlacious soubrette who appeared with the "Southland" Revue at the Royal Theatre last week, one finds a wide diversity of talents and a knack for appreciating them. addition to smiling, leading swift air dances and singing popular hits. Miss Speedy knows how to design and make milady's ultrafashionable costume. She is a graduate of a New York school of designing and has completed plans for a new dance polis this summer. The enterprise will cater to the theatrical people and the general public. For three years Miss Speedy was a philadelphia where she is member of a leading Baptist church. Her last talent is the best one—homemaking. When the spirted little actress is at liberty she makes a proverbial bee line for her mother, who makes a home with her mother. Biscuit's, soft light, bits of embroidery, mother: all those things appeal to Violet. "Mother taught me appreciation of the good," she said when interviewed, "and those teachings are hard to forget. When my work has brought me to the verge of sensual pleasure, I often get, sensuous pleasure rather than artistic gratification from nudity, I have refused to heed the producer at the risk of being discharged." Miss Speedy is a native of Evansville, Ind. where she was graduated from the University, began her theatrical appearances with Irving C. Miller's "Brondway Rustus," and has worked in the leading clubs of New York. WASHINGTON. — Miss Mabel Jones, dancing instructor, and her pupils will appear in a classic dance recital in the Armstrong Technical High School auditorium, Friday evening, June 9. Miss pupils will appear in a total of 40 dances. Ensembles, trios, duos and solls will comprise the program. "The Progress of the Negro," a dance interpretation, will be stageed in the "Singer's Opera" number to depict the struggle of the Negro thru slavery to joy and happiness. This dance has won favorable criticism in Columbus, O., where Miss Jones formerly conducted a dancing studio. O. is divided into three first, "Singer's Opera" Struggle for Freedom", and third, "A Prayer of Thanks for Freedom".

"The Blackbirds" show is closing at the London Pavilion, May 14th, after a long and successful run and as yet has made no definite plans. Like they will remain on this side to keep working as the Londoners are simply wild about it. Johnny Hudgins closed with the "Blackbirds" company, and he added a big white revive in Paris at the Ambassadeurs Theatre, opening May 19th for a run of three months. He is to be the co-founder of the Hudgins completed one year in European theatres May 15th and is still doing fine. He has had some wonderful offers to headline in vaudeville and to play in some big night clubs. of the smart kids. The newest fad is they have made dolls of Hudgins calling them the Johnny Hudgins dolls. To the AFRO Hudgins said today: "I have just received a cablegram that James Riley is dead. He was my first partner in the show business. We both started out together at the same time, he working as a female impersonator. He is also a Baltimore boy and has a wife and three children. Of us are upset about his death as I would like to have been there, although I aided him when he needed or wanted anything. I suppose that was all I could do being so far away." Mrs. Hudgins is with Johnny. Both are in the best of health. are in the best or health. Hudgins address for the next three months will be The American Express Company at Paris. T. O. B. A. DOPE T. O. B. A. DOPE By W. R. ARNOLD NASHVILLE. TENN. — Like the welcoming of spring with its bright sunshine days, so will the welcoming back to Nashville, opening with the week of May 23, be given the famous Whitman Sisters, termed America's real progressive favorites. The title too, rightfully belongs to them. There is no gainaying between what of the city is bedded to go up at the popular T. O. B. A. house, the Bijou, that every seat, even to the gallery, won't be taxed to capacity. And the Bijou too, from a count in seating capacity is the largest theatre in the city. It was during the week of May 10 to the 15, 1927, that these famous entertainers were in Nashville. Opening with the week of May 16, there will be a new show for the Blu-jour theatre patrons. It will be Paul Johnson's "Bon-Ton-Revue" which, so report us, is a musical its swing of various T. O. B. A. houses. The show, so it has been proclaimed, is a worthwhile offering, and the season's musical treat. And too, it's chuck to the brim with funny comedians and a very shapely chorus, all of whom, know how to sing and dance. WASHINGTON—The Fisk University octette, accompanied by Dr. Thomas Elsa Jones, sang for President and Mrs. Coolidge Saturday. The singers were the featured musicians Sunday at the President's church.

SOLUTION NORGING AMERICA By Lethrop Stoddard, 383 pp. New York, Charles Cerbitt's bons. By Roger Didier for the A. N. P. What Mr. Stoddard proposes to do with the Negro is, of course, most interesting to us. He believes the problem of the Negro to be the biggest one with which he faces the most difficult one as a solution of that problem a scheme which he terms biracialism. In plainer language bi-racialism is segregation or separation. Stoddard, honestly enough, finds great virtue in southern Jim-crow culture and in the rock of completeness. He suggests that the leaders of both races gather in a great conference to determine how to establish a system of Jim-crow throughout the land and that shall be least palatable to the white Nordic. Certain kinds of work could be turned over to the Negro in the new scheme, he asserts, and he could be allowed to vote. for Negro candidates, but always for white candidates that the Negro office holders should not outlive or outlive the white. Of course, intermarriage should be forbidden by law and another law passed to punish white men who cohabited with colored women, althat that law should be so wounded and construed that it should not be punished by colored women. Most of the agitation among Negroes, Mr. Stoddard attributes to the mulattoes, who, he is happy to find are decreasing, in numbers. The darker Negro, who holds more power, himself. In the separation therefore which bi-racialism would entail the hope would be for the gradual obliteration of the mulatto, or dissatisfied Negro, and the gradual evolution of a soft-breath type of Negro who would be fully with the new order of things. NEW FILM CO. TO USE BEGINNERS NEW YORK—J. Arthur Harris, Jr., youthful movie actor and writer, who has just organized the Harris-Ebony Film Company, extended the invitation to beginners this week to get in touch with his organization for movie-outs. Harris was formerly cast with Ben Lyon, white, in the "Prince of Tempers," a First National picture. He is an author and will produce comedy-dramas depicting southern life. In his statement to the press he said: "There are many great actors and actresses among the colored class, who are never heard of, because none are given a chance by neither the white producers, makers of own kind, who predeceased well known and experienced players." Harris has offices at 188 W. 135th Street. New York.

PROTESTS ALL-NEGRO THEMES FOR ARTISTS Walton Says Writers Want To Have Freedom In Expression The Negro writers, singers, painters and other artists of the past are immersing freedom in all themes of expression, is the declaration of Lester Walton in writing in the New York Sunday World. Mr. Walton quotes Countee Cullen, the leading youthful poet, and assistant editor of "Opportunity" as saying, "I do not see may reason why we should be expected to do any particular kind of writing, painting or singing on any artistic expression," Cullen observes, "An artiste's field is one in which the artist should feel free to get and use those materials for which he has large supplies whether those materials be within the range of his particular group or outside." Mr. Walton continues: "Negroes ask no charitable consideration and desire to meet the standards usually applied to slaves, a charge that is often performed by performance by two different yardsticks—one for white and the other for colored; and that the "it's good for a Negro" viewpoint is frequently invoked. What Countee Cullen and others have said be the said test, and racial affacilities be regarded as incidental, which is the attitude taken toward other groups. "In seeking to give a just and proper evaluation of Negro achievement there are good-intentioned white writers who experience varied situations. Some decisions are influenced by predefined criteria by sentiment. That is the reason now and then we behold some bending "too far backward" and others bending "too far forward" in their personal estimates of things Negroled." WASHINGTON. — Just from New York with many of the principals and choriles of the mid-winter sensation "Southland Revue" with Tim Moore, Freddie Johnson, "Dusty" Johnson and the Berry Brothers, headliners opened last week. The show presents a diversified array of acts which in their entirety are something new and novel.

THEATRES THIS WEEK Page Seven Of four new shows being groomed for Broadway openings, all are musical comedies of the minstrel type. The new shows are planned by Miller and Lyles of "Running Wild" fame, Sissie and Blake, Tim Moore and Freddie Johnson, and Evan Robinson, wife of the late John Leubrie Hill, and starred principal of the old "Darktown Follies." Irvin C. Miller began some plans for a Broadway show from his preschool years, but that has made no formal announcement recently. Miller and Lyles are said to be in rehearsal of their show, which will be called "In Jungle Land." The Sissie and Blake musical comedy, which will begin rehearsals soon, is of the same type. The two companies are expected to have their premiere in the laboratory to attempt to win the "white way." Tim Moore, featured comedian with the "Southland" Revie, has completed the book of his musical comedy entitled "Bronze Buddies," and is breaking in some of the skits this week for the purpose of seeking suitable characters for the opening. The music score is by Freddie Johnson, who wrote "Luck Sambo," "Bronze Buddies" will have a cast of 40 persons and will feature the best performers obtainable, according to a statement by Moore. Moore and Johnson will carry the comedy. The chorus is to be performed in the shape of the "Southland" Rowe and other outside talent. The Evan Robinson vehicle will be a revival of "Darktown Folles," which ran successful seasons 1915 and 1920-21. The "Folles" is expected to go into rehearsal next May 23. "Dink" Stewart, now a member of Alex Mac Garvey's "Hey Hey," is to mar the comedy, and the role of the principal partner is Leroy Morton, vaudeville partner of Miss Robinson.

The show is expected to be a Bert Goldburg presentation. ANNOUNCEMENT Page Eight MRS. AMY GARVEY'S "HEY HEY" CANCELLED Royal Management Substi- tutes Another Show Follow- ing Monday Matinee PRODUCER AND THEATRE MGR. MAKE STATEMENTS Eight Members Of Company Arrive In Baltimore Day After Show Opened Mrs. Marcus Garrey's musical comedy, "Hey! Hey!" was can- celled by the Royal Theatre management, Monday, following the opening matinee, and a new show substituted to fill the run. "Hey! Hey!" is a farce dealing with the adventures of two discontented husbands who go to seek in seas and in cities to play the role that the show has played to various cities for six months, having been in Baltimore in the early winter. When asked for a representative role in M. K. Gray, white manager of the Royal Theatre, said "Dink" Stewart was the support of the show. Madame Garvey did absolutely nothing, but she wanted that the Royal Theatre wants to give to its patrons. Mrs. Garvey was interviewed Tuesday, at 915 Argyle avenue, where she is living and employing herself, andading for her cast. Eight members of the company who were in Detroit until a few hours before the Baltimore open, arrived in Baltimore. Tuesday evening at 6:30pm, she gave a statement given by Mrs. Garvey. The former wife of the Provisional President of Africa made her statement through the media, the mediator and manager of the show. Mr. Manning said: "We made a contract with the Royal management of Africa, one week, beginning May 16; and it was agreed that the theatre management would furnish eight tickets for eight principals, and eight tickets for six tickets were not furnished until May 15 and the principals did not get here until the evening of May 17, the day after the circumstances it was necessary to substitute principals in the character roles in place of the principals who could not best under the circumstances." Miss E. L. Queen, character actress of the company offered a statement, saying my own hand was unable to make because of lack of time, and co-operation by the stage hands. I shall stick by Mrs. Garvey. The right man and character artist of "Hey! Hey!", submitted a written statement saying: "Having been left in charge of part of the chorus and some of the principals of the show, one of the best producers and straight-forward managers in the show business, I was handling the business in Detroit. The tickets were not received until Monday at 10:30 a.m. expecting the eight of us to arrive from Detroit in time to do a 3:30 oclock matinee. He told me upon my arrival that he had to close the show because we were so rotten. He had about about what has been an undisputed hit in every house it has played." Matt Houseley's "A Trip To Araby" is filling the bill at the Royal in place of Mrs. Kline in the company. **Suit Filed** Sam Manning and Marcus Marcey Garvey filed suit for $1,400 against Geo. W.

THOUSANDS TAKE 7-11 REMEDY FOR COLDS, GRIPPE, CHILLS & FEVER Sure Does the Work Can't Be Beat Drugsite and Deodorant 25c Per Bottle Call Vernon 6016 MCCOLLUM'S WEEKLY STAGE REVIEW By OBIE McCOLLUM We Improve The Howard University Glee Club was backed by the Federation of Parent-Teachers' Clubs and 115 patrons in its recent Baltimore concert. Conscientious effort toward making an impact on students and cultural occasion was observed throughout the proceedings. The attendance of nearly a thousand patrons was an encouraging success in the Baltimore in the future. It is hoped that we may gradually add promptness to the virtue of patronage. Artists, managers and performers on their programs and consider it more than just so much printers' ink wasted. Expense sheet shows the club was paid $150 and provides a ethical and cultural indicator that from the purely monetary point of view, promotion sometimes costs more than performance. Drama Returning A contemporary on a New York weekly tells us in a 1,000 word editorial that, the烷师 that he, He at least has the assurance that "Goat Alley" is at the Alhambra in New York. Among many other things the烷师 we have not experience the cloud-hopper from the wilds to ever find enough inspiration in these things to be tempted to voluntarily tell the烷师 some of us who, even if we do not boast certain requirements in life, still retain the desire to be able to enjoy one of the highest forms of entertainment regardless of This writer might well remember that the clod-hoppers in our rural districts have laid the foundation for the dramas of the city theatres, the opera houses, the institutions, which is more than the urban dwellers have done so far. Two leading theatres in New York and Baltimore tell the Lafayette Players' story of a troupe making to only $800 for a week's performance of a drama, but will be guaranteed $1,500 for a musical comedy or revue. May the cities become more diverse and crowd their halls and churches to witness cruelly acted plays. What's In A Name? We see by the papers that little theatre groups are organizing and performing in the schools of the South. Some of the enterprising ones, Talladega as a leading example, have begun to run schools in public auditoriums. The most of these groups do not have theatres of their own or even plan to own any. They are operating before as dramatic clubs. Now they are producing a larger number of theatres than theatres them, and the term "little theatre" has a more artistic twang than dramatic club. Disturbing Element The most disturbing element in the theatres is the bunch of students who are not only irritating, their presence may be annoying, and jeers at the actors. Some actors have had their contracts cancelled on account of ultra-smart boys and the causes of this attitude of the students lie between the parents and the teachers. If a teacher's influence and responsibility on matching Latin verb then the courses could hardly be called complete. If Mother's willie who attends the theatre exhibit no better department than the old time ignorant theater-goer who yelled loudly and threw money on actors, we wonder at the advancement. FILM REVIEWS LAFAYETTE Admirers of dogs can find some worthwhile entertainment in *Hills* and *Tin*. In *Tin*, which will be shown at the Laveryette on May 23. The story deals with the simple yet fearful management that live away from the modern world up in the hills of Kentucky Blood feuds, moonshining, treachery and the bravery of an intelligent man in the care of the interesting films of the year. CAREY The Colored Players' latest and best picture, "Children of Fate," is coming to the Carey Theatre on Thursday. The story tells of a man who made himself well-to-do by gambling but could not escape the grip of the wolf plague. In the days when he was lonesome and had to leave his friends in the search of health, the love of a childhood sweetheart was the real power that brought him to health and happiness. "Code Of The Northwest" DUNBAR The Dunbar is its continuing policy of the higher_class picture productions and musical specialities during the summer months, according to a man made by the management this week. The offering for Saturday is designed to appeal to those outdoors and the struggles of man with nature. In "The Code of The Northwest," can be found the stern, hard spirit of who live on the outskirts of civilization. There is the officer whose sense of duty compels him to always get his man, and there is the love of a good man to smooth the rough natures of men.

Johnson Publishes New Book Of Poems NEW YORK—James Weldon Johnson, author and well known secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., has just published his latest book, "God's Trombone: containing seven Negro songs," which he wrote. In this introduction, Mr. Johnson says: "The old-time Negro preacher has the old-time right in which he properly belongs. He has been portrayed only as a semi-comic figure. He had it, is true, his comic aspects, but on the basis of his figure and as bottom a vital factor. It was through him that the people of diverse languages and customs who were brought here from Africa, thrown into slavery were given their first sense of unity and solidarity. He was the first shepherd of this bewitched flock." His book, with eight drawings, is Aaron Douglas. Whites Seek Negro Art Dialect Songs And Stories Features On Concert Programs BY EVA JESSYE NEW YORK.—"The rock that was despised is become the chief cornerstone" is fast being applied to the growing importance and popularity of Negro expression, whether in word or song.

JESSEY NEW YORK.—"Goat Alley" by Ernest Howard Culbertson and distressed the princess The treet, downtown opera Monday night at the Alhambra Theatre on Seventh Avenue. The house seating approximately two thousand was half full at the close of the performance. Goat Alley, so named after the locale might be tersely defined as the who, a wiseman, curly headed girl, struggle on, she might could not shake free from the "Fell clutch of Circumstance." GREAT IN HUMAN INTEREST The story is not remarkably written, staged, or with the exception of three characters, acted; what is remarkable is the keen human interest, suspense and plausibility of the various situations and life and its parallel can be found in almost every city, large or small. THE STORY Lucy Beille Dorsey, played by Evelyn Ellis, is a bit of drift-wood thrown at a tender age to suffle for herself, mother dead, father gone, the gradually begins to mingle with questionable characters, finally taking up with one Jeff Gibbs of Licey and who abuses her until unable to bear it longer she runs away. She finds refuge in Goat Alley with Sam Reed (A. B. Comathiere) and there finds the most happiness she has known. The two are sincerely in love and plan a real home among decent former connection with Jeff and when told by Lizzie Gibbs, a leavel alley woman (Dorothy Paul), goes nearly insane with jealousy and anger. He finally forgives Lucy, both wowing eterial fidelity. He threatens Lucy with death should she ever deceive him. Jeff, returning to town, tracks Lucy out short, by the police from whom he is in hiding, but he returns for her and in a fight with Sam is worsted. Sam is sent up for four years, Lucy, loving him sticking to her vow, undergoes temptation and reverses. Her brother, shiftless, treacherous, (Edward Thompson) steals her last cent and her little daughter, Panny, is crying the last straw. Lucy reasons to herself... any other girl would do the same, and rents the spare room to Chick Avery (Baron Bryant) who for several years has awaited this chance. The "Star Board" checks out after a year or so, leaving Lucy with a concoction from the neighbors. Unexpectedly Sam returns, released by good behavior. A touching scene...their re-union. Lucy steps into the next room and Lizzie Gibbs, having heard of Sam's return, enters begging Sam to go out for a good time and lowering Lucy which Sam resents with a slap in Lizzie's face. She screams. The cop is heard approaching. Lizzie runs down in the cellar and Sam leaves. Lucy seizes the opportunity to smuggle the baby over to Aunt Rebecca's (Elizabeth Williams) and is discovered in flight by Lizzie. Lucy, frantic, runs to the wharf and tries to drown the baby. She returns to the cabin weak and unbalanced and is confronted by Sam who has been told of the baby by Lizzie. Lucy denies everything and has succeeded in convincing Sam of her innocence when Aunt Becky rushes in excited and nervous screaming that the baby had been fished out of the water. Sam says not a word but catching Lucy by the throat choked her to death. He picks up his cap... As said in the beginning, it is the story of a winsome curly headed girl in the fell clutch of circumstance. Splendid performances were given by Evelyn Enoja by Evelyn Enoja and Elizabeth Williams as Aunt Rebecca, natural, typical, could not have been excelled. Edward Thompson, past master of "subtle dramatics" entitled to high commendation for his interpretation of the no account, excuse giving, has been given by Hawes, briefly on the stage, gave a good account of himself for the allotted period. His was the part of an amn $bythezot.dETAOINUNNNUO old man scared to death of evil "sperits". J. Lovelace is an excellent type for the amn and may be rated about 85 per cent. Dorothy Paul is missing a good opportunity by being too much inclined to giggle at her own "hardboiledness". She is a good person, but someone should persuade her not to laugh and to find several more rough, tough gestures. All she has done so far, was THE STORY AMONG THEATRES Miss Pauline Prout and Miss Do timore's younger set. THE MUSICAL THEATRE Miss Pauline Prout and Miss Dorothy Richardson, well-known in Baltimore's younger set. to jamb her fists on her hips. The chorus of the current musicals should be replete with suggestions. INCONSISTENT Patrons were remarking right and left on the inconsistency of bobbed hair and such dialect from "way back" that great spandrels and certainly cannot be liked with the mean bobs (and they did look too good) as turned out by the Harlem barber. Of course the public more than appreciates a beautiful head, out in the cause of ART, which is the kind of play which for the period of the play, the dialect or the bobbed hair? In other words, when did it happen, in 1800 or 1927? Seriously, the effectiveness was lessened by such absurdly exaggerated dialect. The production was staged and directed by the Civic Repository Theatre Company, which, with this play, takes up its abode in The Alhambra Theatre.

To the Editor: We write to thank you for the expressions and conduct of things as were characterized at the 10th session of the national conference at its recent session. The principle that founded the African Episcopal Church does not exist. We are slaves for a morsel of bread. Manhood is sacrificed upon the altar of greed and the office that stained the reproach is debased and disdained. Please explain a lot of learning and scholarship with no sense, horse variety. Please for the days of Wayman and gentlemanly breeding to come back. Good-bye to the A. M. E. Church. The bishop yelled: "You think I'm Jackass." God forbid that any more bishops or dignitaries of Christ be sent this way. Send men with the fear of God before their eyes. (Signed) W. L. T. Thinks Pastors Deserve All They Received From Bishop Johnson. A question I would like to ask the ministers who felt it their duty to criticise Bishop J. Albert Johnson, five days after he was "Did you at any session stand in the pulpit or on the platform, so that you could get a view of the men and the visitors of other churches, that you might see yourselves as Bishop Johnson saw you"? For if you did you sure that sure that you would your hearts you feel that he was a gentleman not to have told just what you really resembled. To those who saw you, you looked like a lot of wild animals who had been kept in your cages for a long while and during sessions had to look at the other. A lot of inhuman beings unfit to carry Jesus Christ into the highways and hedges to the human unconverted man or woman. Is it a sin that sinners stay out of your reach and refuse to hear Jesus Christ preached by you. No man or woman can respond to whom they cannot see Jesus Christ. Mrs. Laura E. Hill 1717 Baker street. Bacon, Coffee, Rolls, Butter Cost $1.05 At Lisbon Station Restaurant In Washington. To the Editor. By my wife I took in the excursion to Washington. Leaving New York at 12.10 a.m. we arrived at the Union Station about 6.10 p.m. We immediately decided to brush ourselves up and have breakfast in the station's restaurant. Our menu consisted of the following: rolls and buttered potatoes, a serving of coffee. The bill was one dollar and five cents each. We were later informed by an outsider that it was the custom of this restaurant to serve sights via the buses but a physician who had been discriminated against brought suit and won. We now turned our attention to seeing sights via the buses but we soon found out that they drew the line. We then engaged the services of a colored man who was most courteous, so we made the buildings interest and their interest. The trip under his guidance was a real pleasure. The Capitol of the Nation is an interesting place where there is a damnable thing called race prejudice. 157 W. 133rd St., N. Y.

The Association Is Bigger Than Any Individual. To the Editor: A majority of parents have given to Mrs. Edward J. Wheatley a vote of confidence by electing her presidency as the Parent-Teacher Association for another year. Our duty is to forget Mrs. Wheatley as an individual and think of her as the head of an organization which means much in the growth of schools and the development of our children. The Parent-Teacher Association must live. It is of far greater importance than any individual and pledge as a Parent my support to the organization as long as it has a constructive program. Let us forget past weaknesses and give to the administration that kind property and that kind of mustard property and that kind of another year it proves itself unworthy, we again have redress at the polls. If it succeeds, we can all applaud for the sake of our children. We must learn to our young and teaches them to the kind of tolerance which will prove to be an asset in their future. VASHTI T. MURPHY After Two Years' Reflection. A Writer Thinks Marcus Garvey A Remarkable Man And His Philosophy Written Studying. To the Editor: His Excellency Marcus Garvey, President of the University, Czar of the United States of the African Constabulary, Admiral of the Black Star Navy, King Arthur of the Knights of Urgandy, Parish of the Church of Aime after two long years resides in prison. But he lives elsewhere also. Garvey lives into the hearts and souls of hundreds of Negroes and thereon bans a tale. After two years of sober thinking a survey will prove. I believe, that after the hub-bub and the two-bass four, shallow form of advertising has gone, the principles of Garveyism is more than idle stories, but a New School of Thought. Unlike the compromising, "me-to-boss" excuse of Garveyism, this form was taught as taught by the illustrious Booke: T. Washington; and unlike that other school as associated with Monroe Troter and DuBols — that of absconding people on these lines if it takes all summer", the wizard Garvey advances the idea of forming a federation of all black peoples, advertising our goods and wares and becoming a more thereby for-mer others to respect us. To be sure Garvey will never enjoy the fruit of his labor, for like all piloneers and really great leaders, he will never be jealous rivals; but like all martyrs his great idea will live after him. Ghandi, in India, never dreamed of seeing the British out of India but we knew that he would not. Krim surely never hoped to see the greedy nations in Africa release the grip upon his native land but we knelt down to him and as many thanks that though Brother Marcus may be deported and maybe forgotten, the principles of Garveyism will re-echo down the line until a united nation emerges, a pioneer and greatest black leader since Toussaint L'Ouverture. A Tribute To Motherhood. If all the gold and silver in the world was gathered in one place and molded into a statue, studded with gold and silver, it would be dedicated to the honor of MOTHERHOOD, it would not do full honor to that sacred profession, but to the mother of your mother's arms, could you only realize how great was the poignant agonizing torture which racked mother's backs and pressed groan of torment that preceded your deliverance, you would never cause her another pain. Could you ever forget the coming years would find you upon your knees, worshipping the ground upon which she treasures and ready to carry her to the curse. Mothers are the creators of the human race and GLOYE AND FRIENDS OF MOTHERHOOD. FRS. John Green, 549 Perrest. DAYBYDAY WITH WILLIAM N. JONES Religious Tragedy Turn your attention for a few minutes from the crime stories and divorce tangles to a church tragedy enacted for five days down in the Baltimore Circuit Court, and where the pious and appealing Reverend Albert J. Greene and his disposed deacon board of Maryland's oldest Baptist church have locked horns in a fight for the spoils of religion. Here with four deacons sitting at one end of a table, the pastor and his attorneys sitting at the other, with a goodly portion of the congregation cheering, hissing and observing from the side lines, you have enough brotherly hatred, love of "ilthy lucre," and obstinate greed expressed to produce a dozen tragedies. As the testimony unfolds you also get a close up of how far present day religion has strayed from the preachments of the Meek and Lowly Nazarene. James Turner, trustee of the church for 22 years, testifying for the deacon board, makes out buys and sells, and the ministry does not offer commensurate remuneration when he produces figures to show that the First Baptist Church will contribute more than $4,000 to its pastor's upkeep. Here are some of the figures which make many a hard working human resource for the church: for some men of the cloth who spend most of their sermons urging further and further sacrifice; salary; $2400; vacation money; $100; Christmas dinner; $15; Thanksgiving dinner; $15; $50 for special service in saying the deaf; an automobile donated by the pastor's aid society; $75 garage rent; $406 trip and fees toional schools; and small gifts from several auxiliary organizations of the church. Of Morality One amazing aspect of the trial has been the standard of financial morality revealed. Love of money is the first Baptist church it has evidently dug deep into the moral fiber with some startling results. Here is a minister, human clay inlaid with glorified with a mantle of religious leadership, accepting more than $3000 of money wring out of poor children, not to neglect their children to earn it; where men and women must deny themselves proper food to be able to meet their church obligations; to just himself and wife to support accepting, according to the charges, $400 for a few days work looking after children; to explain to his deacon board that it was his privilege to submit expense accounts WITH FULL RAILROAD MEANT THE ADVANTAGE to explain paid half fare on clergyman rates. BECAUSE THE RAILROAD MEANT THE ADVANTAGE to personally AND NOT, TO THE CHURCH. And more sinister of all, here was a minister, who, according to testimony, was bouncing a whole deacon body of the church because he did not agree with his financial ambitions. If If a man should meet a lone washerwoman in the streets, bludgeon her over the church take a knee's earnings, take a knee's earnings, should send him to jail; if a government official should pad an expense, account with a surplus railroad fare, and they saughed to be rested hands that kick him out of his job; if in any honestly conducted commercial enterprise an executive should submit a $200 expense account to the rested hands in an extra impairment in his department, they would return a blank for his resignation; but in the Christion church, which should get the deals, we find the most insidious practices of financial immorality. No Wonder No wonder captains of industry suck the blood of children in slave factories; no wonder statesmen, ships, and landed men to drive graft and greedy claws from public administration; no wonder merciless human selfishness of the people is what is under feet; no wonder there is a growing contempt for ministerial 'unselfishness and sacrifice', when churned blood and revenge such high handed mockery of the principles of Jesus Christ. Ministers And Crime Stories Ministers in a Baltimore preachers' meeting say crime stories published in newspapers are detrimental to public morals. We sometimes wonder how much of the Bible would be 'deleted by censor laws' over our modern 'misterial' committees on public morals? It was a crime story of a murderer who, according to the book, had been left with his victim's body lashed to him in the forest to perish "played up" by effective agents of the kind I mean, that frightened this writer, and a number of other worldly young men up to mourners' bodies in saliva. And how many ministers have used that juicy scandal story of Potipher's wife and pictured John the Baptist's head served on a platter. Annapies And Family And think of the many Christians who have been deterred from holding out on the church funds that they had collected "In His Name" by the use the pastor made of that original church scandal story about Annanlas and his wife. The fact is the Bible itself, if brought down to modern reporting, would be just about as spicy a record of human weaknesses, crime (scathing editorials, along with noble deeds and feature stories as any so-called yellow journal on earth. Whenever ministers and leaders take as seriously modern crimes as the men of the Bible took the crimes of their day, they will begin to take serious steps to lessen them. You can't paint a true picture of life today without including crime; our weaknesses as well as our gains in moral fiber; our tears as well as smiles, and our joys as well as sorrows.

Samuel Cornish, associated with Mr. Russworm as editor and proprietor, relinquished his duties and the name of the publication was changed to "Rights For All". It survived two years longer under this title and finally continued due to the inability of the editor to support it from his own sucks. Two or three observations ought to be made about Mr. Russworm and his newspaper. **A College Graduate** First of all he was a college graduate. Dr. Carter Woodson refers to him as the first colored graduate of Bowdoin College. In these days when so much riddle book was published it worth recording that our was a college graduate. Dr. Carter Wor d graduate of Bowdoin College. In loo- ked at college graduate school, he wore a cap and a college man- per was not only well printed, but we was been said that their editorial appo ir expression "vile." This criticism show care and pains in composition a credit to his alma mater. Russworm's paper was not only well printed, but well written. Of some early editors it has been said that their editorial appeal for freedom was "brilliant" but their expression "vile." This criticism does not hold good as to John Russworm. His editorials show care and pains in composition together with force and logic. He was a credit to his alma mater. True Newspaper Instinct Russworm also possessed the true newspaper instinct. You have heard of ministers who were the most poets who were competed handling printers' ink. After the failure of his newspaper in New York, he joined the Colonization Society and settled in Africa in 1829. There for sometime he edited the "Liberian Herald," later became superintendent of schools and governor of Maryland County, one of the four districts of Liberia. At the masthead of the first newspaper, Russworm nailed the motto, "Righteousness Exalteth A Nation." The platform of our newspapers hasn't changed much in 100 years. We are still calling a nation to righteousness. Russworm also possessed the true newspaper instinct. You have heard of ministers who were called to preach and poets who were compelled to write. Russworm was of the same mote as the handlers of the newspapers of his newspaper in New York, who joined the Colonization Society and settled in Africa in 1829. There for sometime he edited the "Liberian Herald," later became superintendent of schools and governor of Maryland County, one of the four districts of Liberia. At the masthead of the first newspaper, Russworm nailed the motto, "Righteousness Exalteth A Nation." The platform of our newspapers hasn't changed much in 100 years. We are still calling a nation to righteousness. First Issue 100 Copies Russwarm's first issue was a hundred copies. Today, the Negro press sends out weekly 1,000,000 copies but our newspapers do not. Russwarm's platform of Negro life because as the New York men said in 1847, "the Sun shines for all white men, not for colored men." We are still attempting to elevate the masses by preaching against intemperance, by advocating woman's chastity and women's suffrage, the dignity of labor upon the farm and the inadmissibility of crowding into the Russwarm's first issue was a hundred copies. Today, the Negro press sends out weekly 1,000,000 copies but our appeal still is for "rights for all." We are still publishing the better side of Negro life because as a New York Sun said in 1847, the Sun said that Negro men for colored men must elevate the masses by preaching against remembrance, by advocating woman's chastity and woman's suffrage, the dignity of labor upon the farm and the inadvisability of crowding into the great cities. Views On Race Problem For those of us who may think Russwarm's views on the race problem antiguided, we quote an essay from this first issue in which he dis- is who may think Russworm's views or note a paragraph from this first issue of outcome of slavery in the south. He expect any efficient measures to be added states." Notice how prophetic it was. "Effects of slavery upon the morals, in formation of character of a state are so vexation, trouble and danger. The most dangerous are so stilling compared naturally expect that those who are eats about nothing else but how to be so. so, are so wedded to their habits and so much to mind of their comforts since sense at not finding any antit. acts of the legislature are to be a feeling on all great suspects; to touch successful legislators he has our own to add thereof. 'Our fathers tise you with scorpions.'" QUESTION 1 "We cannot expect any efficient measures to be adopted spontaneously in the slave holding states." That is his text. Notice how prophetic it was. He continues: "The natural effects of slavery upon the morals, industry, population, strength and civilization of a state are so destructive and it is questionable which exaction, trouble and danger: the necessity of it so very questionable and its advantages are so stifling compared with its evil that we could naturally expect that those who are embarrassed with the curse would be solicitous about nothing else but how to be delivered from the curse. But it is not so." The people are so readded to their habits and so fond of exercising untimely and so many of their comforts seem to depend upon slavery, that we cense to wonder at not finding anything done by them toward unimprovement. "The people are so in limited power, and so in power, that we cease to award improvement." "In our country acts the ruling language of each successive hey, but we will use it, we will stachise your the South today is the resaw that we need to tear liberation non-slave holdings state that WE NEED NOT LIE RACE QUESTION.

As Russworm foresaw, the south itself could not be expected spontaneously to take steps looking toward liberation of the slaves. It had to be chastised into it by the non-slave holding states of the north. And I AM JUST AS CONVINCED THAT WE NEED NOT LOOK TO THE SOUTH OF TODAY TO SOLVE THE RACE QUESTION If segregation is disfrianchement, penance and the general run of color discrimination in the South are to be done away with, these things must come through the imitation and insistence of non-southern states.

Race equality doesn't exist in the vocabulary of Dixie. Colored People Of Merit The current issue of the Manufacturer's Record one of the south's greatest challenges is "South Recognizes Colored Merit." Under scrutiny it turns out that the meritorious people referred to include a Baptist minister, of Mobile, Aia, who for 44 years has BEGGED MONEY FOR ANNUAL DINNERS to prisoners and inmates of the city asylums; secondly, a group of African-American men closed the day of his funeral; third, a colored woman of Macon, GA. "LAID TO REST BESIDE HER WHITE FOLK," fourth, Sergeant Wilson, JANITOR OF THE OLD MACON, GA. REBEL VOLUNTEERS, buried with full military honors by the organization. The Manufacturer's Record says the south is the oldest of the colored element which it refers to as the "young buckers." THE ONLY KIND OF MERITORIOUS COLORED MAN IN THE SOUTH IS THE COLORED SERVANT "IN HIS PLACE." This is the reason last week that a mob of several hundred persons selected the public square in front of the half million desolated Templer's Building in Ark. for a funeral and is the reason why the mob broke into Bethel A. M. E. Church and stripped it of furnishings for the funeral pyre. The current issue of the Manufacturers' Record, one of the south's greatest publications, contains an article entitled "South Recognizing Color People of the South." The article includes a message to include a Baptist minister, of Mobile, Ala., who for 44 years has BEGGED MONEY FOR ANNUAL DINNERS to prisoners and inmates of the city asylum; secondly, a COLUMBIA, S. C., MESSENGER, honor public banks and schools; thirdly, a COLUMBIA, S. C., LAID TO REST BESIDE HER WHITE FOLK; fourth, Sergeant Wilson, JANTOR OF THE OLD MACON, G.A. REBEL VOLUNTEERS, buried with full military honors by the organization. The Manufacturers' Record acknowledges the old-timey tradition of benefiting the fact that there are too many of the colored element which it refers to as the "young buck." THE ONLY KIND OF MERITORIOUS COLORED MAN IN THE SOUTH IS THE COLORED SERVANT "IN HIS PLACE." This is the reason last week that a mob of several hundred persons selected the public square in front of the half million dollar Mosaic Tempel's Building in little Rock, Ark. for a lynching. This is the reason it was bolted Bethel A. M. E. Church and stripped it of furnishings for the funeral palace. Russworm's Program Is Ours Today for which Russworm contended 100 he contended today.

If a physician makes a mistake his citie is dead. If a newspaper man so much as changes his mind, then he has "sold out." Russworm didn't escape this criticism. At first he was opposed to the colonization of the Negro in Liberia. When he was superintendent and publisher, when he sent him a copy of a young immediately the rights to which he had himself entitled as a citizen, he became converted to it and as we have said before, went to Liberia in 1829 eventually to become governor of a county. In this position he died. His conversion to colonization raised a great storm of controversy between the colonizationists and the anti-colonizationists, in the course of which he was accused of "selling out." In the "Liberator," of 1831 there appeared a lengthy communication from a writer in Philadelphia in the course of which was the following paragraph. selves, my colored brethren, the long ill be able to judge of the change this in the principles of man."

A Defence A defence of Russworm is printed in the "Librator," of 1834 from the pen of the Rev.

It is not so with the unfortunate Benedict, for he cannot pick and choose for himself, but must drag a hat and a coat and then who picks hats like she drives a fliver, merely by intuition. Throughout the ages civilization has moved from one statum of ignorance to another. Man has fought for freedom in all kinds of wars with all kinds of weapons and yet in all kinds of wars he has himself still a slave, as far as straw hats are concerned. Year after year he grits his teeth, if he has any, and declares that he'll be darned if he don't pick out the kind hat he has and wants it, his year hats and strife joins in the shopping excursion and votes thumbs down on every grass derby that he takes a fancy to. Something ought to be done about this. Men must unite a common civil and stamp their hands, spread unpleasant proportions. In course of time woman will demand a voice in man's selections of shoe strings. Of course, some men do get up nerve enough to go alone and buy their summer hats, but their wives raise so much man that they are alid so man that it is he to speak it to his den like a bottle of boosgol liquor. Then he spills cigar ashes on the crown and tries to palm it off as last summer's straw. More homes have been broken up over straw hats than for any other reason. Of course when the husband times up when the husband limits a man's straw hat that isn't his. There ought to be a law making it illegal for a woman to interfere in any way with her husband's choices of clothing, even if every red blooded American to write his favorite congressman, represent or garbage man concerning this measure. The teachers should instruct their pupils concerning the effect this amendment would have on posterity and what it would mean to abolishing warfare, especially the domestic or family variety. The clergy should be enlisted in the first for freedom and any wife making sarcastic remarks about the kind of hat her husband dragged in should be either turned out of church or made to sing on the choir. The newspapers should conduct a straw vote on the straw hat question, and the other Abraham Lincoln to declare that all men are created just as equal as women. A few good husbands could go on a hunger strike. If a few die for the cause, our wives will know we are in earnest. A few old decrepit fossils would be missed in the night to saarific themselves for their fellowmen. We should demand that the next presidential candidate come out boldly on this important issue. We should demand that this matter, this matter, party loyalty should be sacrificed when a man will not say whether he favors a loud or plain hband. Too long have men been held in bangle while women are permitted to wear any kind of a hat they want. We should demand that a man will all be a wide brim or have it all mashed down behind, or out ribbons on it if he wants to? What right have you to wear a hat that looks like a darn fool or not; aren't his rights just as sacred as hers? Men, we must unite for the common good. Let our slogan be "Life, liberty, and justice" for picking out our own straw hats." Jim Hayseed's Mild Musings SUNDAY MOVIES By OBIE McCOLLUM "Having movies right on Sunday?"

Yes, you know they hadn't orter, Scandalicious! Goodness knows!" At the Regent and the Royal And the Carey and Dunbar At the rest of them the剧院?

You say they have pictures for the children, women, men Who have had the mighty waters Nearly take their all? Now then. When the Sunday show's for pleasure. It's a sin. I say, but man. When it helps the poor and needy. That's the Lord's redemption plan." Leave Hell Out (Rev. P. W. Walls In A. M. E. Review) Our Discipline and Hymnal each contain that version of the Apostles' Creation, and the title "THE DESCENDED INTO HELL," while the quarteriles emanating from the Sunday School Union give the version which retain. "Why this thusness?" On what authority does the editor of the Sunday School literature of the African Methodist Episcopal Church to the young people of the Church counter to the teachings of John Wesley? Ask Me Another (H. M. W. In The "Nation") (H. M. W. In the mid-1980s, Social Science was synonymous with my part toward friendliness between white and colored college students, an American lady told me with some hese that I might be able to be opposed which might possibly lead to intermarriage. What is the answer? I can conceive that my might be opposed. That the biological evil of intermarriage, between persons similar enough to attract each other, has yet to be scientifically proven, but it is not in fact increased intermarriage; and that the social golf in the old South did not in fact prevent the best of both worlds from occurring. That the maintenance of a social cleavage through the heart of the nation and the nation's schools would be too expensive in order to have a doubtful evil. Which is right? Kelly Miller Says Just now Howard University Medical School is in focus. The American Medical Association has fixed certain minimum requirements for a fully accredited medical school. It must have a productive endowment of at least half a million dollars. With $250,000 conditional grant from the General Education Board, the university still needs about $100,000 by July 1st when the conditional grant will lapse. If the Negro could be brought to a full realization of what this bare pittance means the full amount would be forthcoming in a single day and no one would miss What profit is it to a race to gain the whole world and lose its health or what benefit is its health? If asked, what human value is of most worth the inevitable answer would be health. The inevitable goodness are of inestimable value to a race or to an individual, health is basic of them all. For without health, the other would be of little or no advantage. The mad rush for racial attainment and achievement will only lead to vanity and the base used upon a pound of physical stamina. The Negro race in the United States has not yet sustained the severest test of survival in the midst of a white environment the last census revealed would be able to increase, which it confirmed by later enumerations, spells the early or ultimate decline of the African contingent on this continent. Already gloomy statisticians and geophysers are predicting a fate. In an article published in the Scientific Monthly, several years ago, I undertook to show by an interview that the apparent retrograde tendency of the Negro population was due to imperfections in the Census Office, published in a subsequent volume, and the tendency of the race. My position was strongly combatted by a sponsor of the Census Office, published in a subsequent volume, and the confirmation of next census will confirm or refute my contention. I shall be keenly on the alert, and the 2014 figures are available. In the meantime, I confess, the slowing up of the birth rate gives me much concern. The shift towards the North and the South in the same direction. The Negro's death rate is something like fifty percent higher than that of the White race, which rate is kept pace the prelaimed result is easily predictable. The health of the race can only be safe-guard:1 through the Negro physicians. We can no more be safe-guard after the health of the race than we can rely upon the white teacher for effective instruction of our students after the health of the race than we can rely upon the white teacher for effective instruction of our students for intimate moral guidance. Personal sympathy and social touch are essential for the proper and effective dealing with human needs. The Negro physicians, as a class, have fully vindicated the self-direction of the race and the essential function. The health of the race has been placed in their keeping, and they have more than met their mission. Negro physicians have been in a body of professional men, equipped according to the scientific and professional requirement of the healing and approved therapeutic standards. The race, as yet has produced no other body of skill to cope with so much variation in situations, No greater calamity could be predicted for the Negro than the failure to perpetuate this professional group and to reinforce its ranks in the community, and to quietly cope with the health needs of the race. Meharry And Howard There are only two institutions upon which we can rely for the medical profession—the Mchary Medical School at Nashville, Tennessee, and the Howard University School of Medicine at Washington, D.C. These medical schools in the North and West with any assured basis for such dependence. The doors are being degree upon the colored applicant. Even now, it is difficult almost all Negro student to receive full medical preparation from any white institution in the United States, including the colleges and internships. He is first or finally thrown back upon these two Negro schools or Negro hostels, and is one of his professional preparation. If there is any responsibility that devolves upon the whole race which is more urgent than those two medical establishments. Upon them rests the health needs of ten million human beings. The appeal is race based, not on vision of interest or diversity of opinion. Although these schools appeal powerfully to the whites, from the standpoint of the relativistic view of interest, the appeal of interest to the Negro, the appeal is racial and immediate. If no white man contributed a single dollar, we the Negro should not be held responsible for schools on the highest standard of efficiency. Enlightened self interest demands this. We must to focus on medical education than upon any other educational program, confronting the race. This is an age of drives. Every worthwhile cause is now presenting its claims to public fa- Educational institutions, religious organizations and social agencies are pressing their demands on them to pocket money they are all worthy, we hardly know how to choose among them. But no one of them is essential to the needs of the whole race; for example, the poor fail its competitors would easily fill the need. But in case of Medical training, there are but two institutions, neither of which is adequate, and neither of which is necessary to differentiate between the relative merits or rival claims. The race wide claims of the one are as compelling as those of the other. Each in its time and turn. But just now the Howard University School of Medicine is in Association has fixed certain minimum requirements for a fully accredited Medical School. It must have a minimum investment at least half a million dollars. The General Education Board A Plea For Racial Health Negro Physicians Only Safeguard Two Institutions. Pressing Demands Upon Pocket-books School In Focus Saturday, May 21, 1977 several years ago offered a conditional grant of two hundred and ten thousand toward the endowment, provided the institution would duplicate the amount. The University still needs to raise about one hundred thousand dollars in the conditional grant will lapse, while minded Negro can contend such a calamity without shuddering. The amount seems to be considerably small when measured against its whole race. If the Negro could be brought to a realizing sense of what his仗侍ance means to the health of the race, an amount would be forthcoming in a single day, and no one would make the contribution the day following the donation. In his place, the appeal to made to the whole race. Every one should feel it an opportunity to come to the rescue in this emergency. Any one who fails to come to the rescue is thought to feel that he is a sinner against the health of the race. Appeal Made To 6.000 Alumni In the second place, the appeal is made especially to the six thousand alumni and many more more than one hundred who have shared the partial benefit of the University's instruction. If all of these should respond to the extent of ten dollars, the amount will be much more thinkable that any graduate Howard in any part of the country will allow this proposition to fall, or to succeed without having the same listed among the subscribers. In the third place, the appeal applies particularly to the physicians of the country, regardless of their mater. The integrity of the Negra medical profession demands that every Negro doctor should support Howard and Mehary. If the white race should cease to maintain the position, the general became apathetic, the physicians themselves, should keep them from falling, even if it became necessary to tute their in- Record Shows 2,500 Medical Graduates In the fourth place, the appeal is made in especial and in particular to Howard University. The record shows that this institution has recruited the ranks of the pro-female professors of twenty-one hundred members. If the Medical School should lose its rank as a class A college, the university should charge these graduates would be discounted. They that have been benefited ought therefore to become enlarged for these graduates to consider the instable benefit which the university has been to them, they would not suffer their alma mater to suffer for the hour of her dire distress. If these graduates should give an average contribution of one hundred dollars per hour of her dire distress. This is about a bare bagatelle in comparison to the advantage the University has brought upon them by way of added earning power. I trust that every one under whose eyes this release may fail whether alumnus or not, will feel the contribution as a racial obligation.

HIDE WOMEN'S NAMES IN BIG CHURCH TRIAL Court Orders Specific As First Baptist Deacons Testify CASE HAS LASTED OVER FIVE DAYS Minutes Show Deacon John Smith Asked To Leave His Gun Home (continued From Page One.) tong with the deacons and that two banks in which money is deposited be restrained from recognizing any new banking committees appointed to the meeting of the church. In high school given by deacons in the humour given by deacons in the administration of the church's affairs and questionable use of money on the part of the pastor were set forth as a basis of their contention. George G. Cooper, 15 Jefferson street, white, was a deacon since 1907, tested that atheo no charges made against him in the church that the Rev. Mr. Greens had 45 members of the church to declare the deacon board to while he was. In tracing the incumbent bewfUjk the history of the difficulties be the pastor and the deacon Mr. Cooper recited detail after detail to show that it was because of a difference in financial conditions in which he himself benefited that the pastor sought to disarm the men in the board who disarmed Philadelphia Trips Cases, he said, show on several occasions the pastor paid the pastor trips on short trips to Philadelphia. One of these, he states, in which the pastor left after having his breakfast in Baltimore and returned in time to have his dinner in an account of $10.20, not exceeding the fact that the actual expenses were one meal and clergymans fare to Philadelphia. When he asked him what he would do with the difference between the actual price and the pastor's fare, he even gave the pastor as quote: "Why. I'm going to stick, in my pocket." S500 Fee Another instance, he said, in which there had been sharp disagreement between the deacons and the pastor was when the latter asked the deacons on board to recommend that the church pay him $1,000 for having assisted a financial crisis, he said, the eight deacons used their vote on a proposition to pay him $500 and that the pastor himself untied the vote by voting in the affirmative. Another instance, the witness citizen James Payne, in relation to J. Howard Payne, an attorney, had been paid $20 for searching titles, which the claim was needless, they having told the pastor that it had been looked up carefully during the administration of the late Rev. Mr. Neale. This instance, according to the testimony of Mr. Cooper, was practically given Couldn't Pray Since the difficulty arose, the witness also stated he had not been allowed to lead prayer in the church. What he called "high-handed" tactics on the part of the pastor was also described by the witness when he related instances in which deacons who voted against a broughed up the deacons' board allowed to speak against them in the open church meeting. This rule he claimed, always prevented a minority report and gave the congregation the idea that all recommendations by the deacons board had been unanimous. Financial Aid The financial condition of the church was aired when James Turner, 528 North Central avenue, who has been on the trustee board for 22 years, gave an itemized statement during his testimony. According to him, the present salary of the pas- YES SAM! "SOME MORE OF THE SAME!" THAT'S WHAT OUR SEIBERLING USERS ALWAYS DEMAND! FOR THEYVB LEARNED WHAT GREAT TIRES CAN DO!!

In addition to this, he is paid $200 for his annual vacation and $100 for his anniversary. Durnished $15 for a Christmas dinner for himself and a similar amount for his Thanksgiving dinner. To this, he stated, should be added also varying amounts from a humble auxiliary organization. He also requested, the deacon board, recommended that the Pastor's Aid Society purchase him an automobile. It also developed in his testimony that 5100 of a $150 loan made the pastor when the Taylor and Jenkins failed in 1922, was still unpaid. He stated that when this trouble began last December, there was on deposit in the Equitable Trust Company $3,379.69, but that since that time no deposits had been made in the savings department, because of a fallin off in collections, which he contributed in collections, while he contributed. Items, including $45 for garage rent and $75 for a suit of clothes were also brought out in the testimony. $406 Trip Bailey Brooks testified Monday that the deacons questioned the pastor's policy of charging full fares in his expense account, while he was only required to pay half fare by the railroads, as another condition which brought on the dissension. A specific case, in which the deacons had allowed the pastor an expense account of $406, to which they later investigated and found cost less, figured prominently in his testimony. He quoted the pastor as explaining to the board, that he was justified in pocketing the surplus money, because that the railroads gave clergymen a reduced fare to help them out personally. **Women** An allegation that the pastor was partial to some women of the congregation was made by Deacon Miller, who declared that on one occasion, two women who had violated the church laws were brought up for trial. The pastor, he declared, wawilling to have one woman up, but tried to shield the other and would not permit her being brought to trial. On another occasion, two women are said to have gotten in an altercation in a church and have been jumped on her feet, telling the pastor to practice what he preached. Another woman took exception to this, and a wordly ensued. The pastor was finally forced to summon the police and have them removed from the church. Stanton refused to let the names of the parties concerned be divided in any case. Deacon Herbert Moore, who was called to the stand late Tuesday, declared in his examination that he had been a member of Deacon John Smith for four years of which time he served in the capacity of secretary for the board of deacons. When his records were offered to evidence and he was ordered instead the middle man of the preaching called meeting at which the deacons were ousted, the first item that he read was that a committee be appointed to wait on Deacon John Smith to inform him that if he could not come to the deacon board without bringing him to court, he will. This announcement brought titters from the court room and Judge Stanton, who had kept a stern face throughout the trial, gave way to a smile. Last week the judge 'bawled' out the spectator enquiring at testimony inferred he wanted no nonsense in his court. Several other recommendations of the board on that night included the asking of the resignation of Robert Julian, as superintendent of the Sunday School, and James Brown, as assistant superintendent. It was also recommended that the resignation of Mrs. Fitzhugh, superintendent of the B. P. U., be asked, and several changes were made in the trustee board. Pastor Needed Money Deacon Moore substantiated the claims of the other deacons who had preceded him by declaring that it too, thought that the pastor was from neat financial reasons. The pastor, following the burning of the mortgage stated, when it was recommended that he be given a thousand dollars for the money he had saved the church, that he was in dire need of the money. Members of the deacon board opposed the motion. At this time, the pastor made a plea, in which he said that he needed to be牙齿 fixed, that he had subscribed $100 for the Y.M.C.A. and knew no way of paying it, that he had been in an auto accident which cost him several hundred dollars. It was following this that Deacon Moore himself made the motion that the pastor be given $500. This motion was carried after a tie between the deacons was broken by the pastor's vote. **Hinted Irregularity** That a irregularity had taken place was healed by Deacon Moore as by other deacons, who found it difficult to explain how the pastor had saved them $45,000 when there was no record to show that this money had been owed. The Rev. M. Baylor, head of the Baptist Church Extension Society, had admitted to them that all records of the church's debt had been destroyed by fire, they had conserved the reduce the indebtedness it was paid before a certain date. It was paid before a certain date. After that date, in order to obtain their deed, they would have pay $4,000. Following this transaction, which caused a great deal of dissension in the church, the pastor is said to have asked that the church show their appreciation to the deacons he had money in saving them so much money by giving him a gift of $1,000. Following much discussion, the $500 recommended by Deacom Moore, was granted. Had New Flan The pastor, according to Deacom Moore, came to the board on one occasion with a plan. which he said was being accepted by all first-class churches of all deacons' names, all deacons' vote them out of office and then refill their places either by themselves or other members. He said that in all offices except the deacons' board and the pastorate there should be a change of office to keep down a supply of offices. In the case of the pastor and deacon on board, he said. it was understood that they were to hold office for life, unless on occasions they voted themselves out of office, on occasions that the pastor had ulterior motives and would fill their offices with men of his own choice, refused to vote themselves out, he said. Deacon Moore admitted that during the four years he had been on the deacon's board, he never heard of any constitution of the church. The session closed Tuesday with his testimony. S406 Trip Women Wanted Bonus Had New Plan DR. W. H. MOSES EXPERT WITNESS DROPS A BOMB A bomb which shattered the face of the deacons was thrown into a court room by Dr. W. H. Moses, field secretary of the Baptist Home Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention, who declared that the deacons were in final in deciding whether any officer from the pastor down should be ousted. A pastor can bed roped without notice and members of any board can be dropped in a similar manner. he said. He cited instances in which pastors have have been put out with no further notice; than paying of their salaries. The policy of the church this season in the congregation, he said, so that they can rid themselves of any undesirable officer and he cannot be reinstated by any civil court. Democracy If this condition did not prevail, he said, it would be possible for an ambitious and shrewd pastor, had been put under congregation to have himself reinstated for an indefinite period by an order of the court. "The entire theory, on which the Baptist religion is based is one of democracy", said Dr. Moses. "Baptists protest against the whole power being invested in the prelate or other ecclesiastical officers; member of the deacon board; church has total power with every member of the deacon board or any other organization." Expert Witness He stated, as an expert witness, that if the church voted to put dead ons out they were to resign so unless the church was them back in agen and that was the only agency which they could regain their offices. He also stated that incompatibility is reason enough to put any member out of any office without trial. If the pastor can't agree with him, said Dr. Moses, and the pastor asks the church to put him out and the church does so, that is reason enough. DR. DAVID OVER DR. D. G. MACK ON THE STAND The Rev. David E. Over, pastor of Union Baptist Church and the Rev. D. G. Mack, pastor of Macedonia Baptist Church, were on the stand and testified concerning Baptist practices. Their testimony was along the same line as that of Dr. Moses. Dr. Mack cited one instance in Baltimore where the whole deacon board was ousted without given notice. This was at Psalmist Baptist Church and happened about 10 or 15 years ago, he said. Dr. Over declared that he himself had taken his pastorate in Denver. Col. put a number of deacons off the board. He stated that the pastor was not in duty bound to notify the deacons that they were to be outside opportunity to campaign and use general confusion among the congregation of the church. To avoid this play of politics, he said, the custom was to elect members to the board of deacons through a regular business meeting and not through a meeting called for that specific purpose. PAYNE ON STAND PAYNE ON STAND Attorney J. Howard Payne was called to the stand to clear up allegations of misappropriation of funds in connection with the obtainment of the deed of the property in 1925. Mr. Baylor was employed as attorney to search the title of the church and it was on his suggestion that $3,000 was paid to the Church Extension Board in 1925. There have been, since the time in the church has arisen inquiries concerning the church. Some members are alleged to have said that the money to have been paid to Mr. M. Baylor, secretary of the Church Extension Board, did not reach its destination and that the funds were divided between the pastor and men immediately concerned. The purpose to counteract this rumor, Mr. Payne was called to the stand by the defense. He was subjected to a severe cross examination by W. Ashbie Hawkins, attorney, concerning his activities in the transaction. Attorney Hawkins attempted to bring out that the money was not paid to the proper sources. DEACON THOMAS TESTIFIES Deacon M. Thomas took the stand early Thursday morning and testified that the pastor, after his coming to the church, had been inured by John Wesley's own place of money in the bank operated by Taylor and Jenkins which failed. He also stated that the numerous trips which the pastor took to different cities had been unheard of until he came church and had one of dissension in the church was that the pastor appropriated too much to foreign missions and not enough to immediate needs of the church. Mr. Thomas is the one remaining deacon on the board. Reasons why you should join the Star Life Insurance Company.

"Heat that cannot be beat" By RALPH MATTHEWS When the injunction suit of the First Baptist Church Deacons against their pastor, the Rev. Albert J. Green, opened in the Circuit Court of Baltimore, last Wednesday, it proposed to be nothing more than an equally among churches and seemed of little consequence, but after six days it has developed to such proportions and brought issues that are not only of interest to the little East Baltimore congregation concerned in the Bible imprint issue (the Baptist Denomination throughout the country). Like the Scopes Anti-Evolution trial held recently in a little obscure Tennessee town, the principal actors in the case are decidedly less important than the issues involved. In the case of the presiding judge is a great deal of money business. The presiding judge is weighted down with a preponderance of testimony, much of which is inconsequential, incoherent and unauthentic, but he has at his disposal no code of denomination to assist him in deciding the case is right, according to the laws of the church. No such code exists. Never Heard Of Code Regardless of which side wins or loses, this trial will at least bring to the attention of Baptists throughout the country the necessity of agreeing on a set standard of laws to govern the entire denomination. The Rev. David Green, the stand in defense of Pastor Green, stated that during his entire 25 years as a Baptist minister he had heard of no such code. The Rev. D. G. Mack and other prominent local masters are in the courtroom and will preside over the same thing when called. There is the book, he stated, "Hitchcock's rules for the Government of Baptist Churches" which serves only as a guide organizing and administration is not accepted as a final word in instance. All administration is left to the pastor's discretion. Deacons Unarmed The deacons in turn, who contest the pastor's right to turn them out of office, admit that their immediate church has no charter; which outlines definitely the relationship of the pastor to his members or officers. In other words, no document has ever been heard of the church handle the plaintiffs.

It relieves me of dizziness, tightness in the chest and backache. "By getting rid of impurities, Black-Draught helps to keep the system in good order. I always keep it in the home, and have recommended it to many people, in my time. I always say a good word for a good medicine." Sold by all druggista.

Page Sixteen BISHOP DIDN'T LEAVE CHURCH FOR POLITICS PRELATE NOW ACTIVE IN BOTH POSITIONS He'll Be Politician First, Last And All Time Pickens Predicts CHICAGO, (Special)—Bishop A. J. Carey, A. M. E. Church, recently elected civil service commissioner did not desert the church to go into politics. Sometimes ago he did desert politics to go into the bishopric. Kelly Miller, who joins everything queen joined the chorus of the pietists who seem to has committed a crime by accusing job and leaving his place in the church. JOHN H. BURKE Bishop Carey be plain; Carey is a politician. — was a politician before he got into the office was a bishop, and will be a politician if his bishop days come to an end. — a politician first, last and all the time. been a bishop, his type now could have "captured" the bishop; he had to outdo the other politicians who were after that same position in the church. — he would have for Kelly and the rest of the pack to have made their howl was when Carey "deserted" politics for the church. — he would now come back home, just where he belongs. Commissioner Carey is much more appropriate. He will do just as much good for his "race" and for all others in the Chicago office as he would ever do in the office. And he will do a slight, more of good for Carey. He would not be a failure on gilbert job. He will be a failure on gilbert job. He will make more money in four years as Commissioner than he would make in 40 years as Bishop And those which will make as Commissioner are much better able to lose it than those who would lose the cash which will make as Commissioner — That's stripping the truth naked. Plenty More Bishops But, besides; there are many men who can fill his place in the A. M. E. Church than there are who can fill his place in the Church. But of immense service to Negroes as Commissioner of Civil Service in Chicago. -- if he tries to. And again: Has not a preacher of the same right to share mentation (mental instruments) of his people and city as have other people? It is an outworn superstition that preachers must eschew politics. If Christians and bishops are better than other people, politics is better than other people. More Christians and bishops into it. More Needed We are not only glad that the Bishop went into this political office, but we hope he will become Maror of Chicago next time, if he can. And we could pick out some others who would recommend that Commissioner Carey find some appointive jobs in his department, no more to Chicago. And many of them who are poor ministers, would be capital politicians. Inside Dope WASHINGTON. D. C. (Special)-Bishop Caster when pastor of Quinn Chabel aided Mayor Thompson to become a alderman. The two became friends. The church here framed Chicago. Thursday. In the last campaign. Bishop Caster campaigned for Thompson and the latter heard him detail how the civil service commission was refusing to honor men and women for city jobs. Thompson made a note of this and without telling a soul as soon as he was elected, he made a plea of the co-founders and made him chairman. Bishop Carry is certifying qualified colored folk right and left for city posts now. A. M. E. Bishops Of Past Failed In Political Positions Dr. Bragga Recalls Dear Editor:— With respect to bishops being active in politics, and holding political office, it may not be amiss to recall some words of the African Methodist Church, the historian of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. Writing of the beginning of the African Methodist work, in the southern states after the Civil War. "The great work in north and south Georgia was accomplished through the work of Superintendent H. M. Turner. Superintendent Cain was equally active and successful in the southern portion of South Carolina, whilst Superintendent Cain was equally active and vicinity. H Superintendent Broadadh had not become one of the freedmen's bankers he might have become equally active and successful in spreading the work through North Carolina. Superintendent Pierce, who had authority to open the gates of Florida and Alabama, would have had to be R. H. Cain allowed himself to be elected senator of the proud state of South Carolina, and thereby damaged the state's economy. In the Creek so also, did Pierce in Florida, and so also did Turner in Georgia. The only apology which can be made for them is for not powering their equals could not be found in the laity, hence politics laid hold of them and by a kind of conscription them into the army of politicians."

Horse Meat Carried away with enchantment at the beauty and novelty I vandered around for hours and was on my way to the library. Suddenly jerked me back to the realities of life—a sight that has somewhat been spoiled my appetite for meat ever since. In a huge bargain with their shoes still on them I found myself being loaded, a great bloody mass of lungs, hearts and chitterlings. I looked again. Horses' hoots, with their shoes still on them, were poor? Who got the choicer portions? I asked myself, Well, to make a long story short I ate mutton that day, and have been choosing. Horse meat is sold here. And at last I have been able to solve the riddle of a steak I ordered in Naples which was as tender and as delicious as the heel, and of a beautiful green tint.

BY RALPH MATTHEWS With the advent of warm weather, buds and blossoms sprout forth to bask in the warm sunlight of a sum- mer's day. Orchards are filled with fragrance and beauty and buttercups and dandelions in the bainy breeze. This tendency does not end in nature, but has a similar reaction on the human seed who have throughout the cold winter months been planted in the dark recesses. Madison avenue recesses. With the first warm day buds and blossoms in the form of happy, uncombed heads burst into bloom and shoot from all the first, second and third story windows and there they hang, kissed by the flitting sun-beams and their petals in the breeze in bumalow apron wave in the breeze. Ditching The Dirt All through the livelong day they toll not, neither do they spin; yet Solomon and all his thousand wives could not gossip like one of these. And from windows, they call in loud and boisterous tones to another ebony hued pansy, ditching the dirt about their neighbors and their neighbors' children. With the setting of the sun, when the shades of night are falling bringing with it a chill that goes hand in hand with the settling dusk, lo, they look and realize that their noble spouse will soon be wending his way homeward. The day is done and no meals are prepared, the rooms have not been set to rights and the beds are still unmade. There is a great scurrying of feet and rattling of cannoners and a mad dash to the delicaten store where a cold cut is bought with a far of mayonnaise and my Lord's supper is prepared. There is a look of nervous apprehension as the honest laborer deposits his hod by the kitchen door and with much blowing and snorting remove the wounds with a bar of sand soak. He rubbish his stomach and sniffs the air to get a whiff of the sweet aroma of boiling cabbage on a big pot roast. He puts his nostrils to his nostrils as he seats himself at the festive board and his eyes fall on the cold chow which is prepared for his palate. The smile disappears from his honour as he disappoints and anger. "What manner of food is this to set before one who has labored in the heat of the day the time the flower is up, up the flower for the skillful question?" he cries in a loud voice. And so possessed is he of the evil spirit that before he can control himself he pastes her face and like the petal the flower is closed for the night as tears like the forming dew trickles down her cheeks. Thoughtout the The Afro-American—Littimore, Md.—South's Biggest and Best Weekly Perhaps no other country in Europe had such harsh laws against the Jews. Brought here, like the American Negro, chiefly as captives, they made such headway, that they were imposed on them, among them being limited sojourn; inability to own land, to enter the school, to work, to receive medicine, then a despised calling; and to print or publish any book.

BY ELSIE OWENS Eggs are quite plentiful new and as a result quite cheap. They are a nourishing food and are therefore digestible and be used as a substitute for meat. We should use many eggs, varying the ways of cooking them as much as possible to keep our family from getting sick. If there is doubt about the freshness of an egg, it may be tested by dropping it into a bowl and letting it to the bottom it is fresh. If it rises to the top and floats it is white.

A REPROOF OR AN AUDIENCE A REPROOF OR AN AUDIENCE MAY WHITCOMB Jason, who was four, was visiting at his grandmother's and during the course of the afternoon took a nickel from the telephone stand, went to the corner and bought a sack of candy. He ate part of the candy and when questioned by Grandmother and Aunt Jane, he failed to tell the truth about taking the money. Grandmother and Aunt Jane and Aunt Mary were dreadfully upset. Something must be done at once. The child couldn't be allowed to steal and lie and go around unpunished. And so the remainder of the candy was taken away from Jason and he was told most severely that he could not have it until the next day. This really didn't seem to bother him very much—probably he had already eaten about all he cared for—and then Aunt Jane took him up on her lap and told him, what a terrible thing it was to take things that didn't belong to him and tell naughty stories. Aunt Mary sat by and looked very sad and said everything that Aunt Jane happened to forget. Next Grandmother took a turn, and told him how wicked he had been, and when she had finished Grandfather added a few parting admonitions as Mother was not at home when Jason and Aunt Jane and the candy arrived, but early on and then if Jason had told his mother the sad story. He had—an entirely new version—and Mother was properly shocked to see Aunt Jane and Aunt Jane slapped his hands a little, and then told Father about it. Father insisted something must be done, so he gave Jason a nickel an token to return the nickel and apologize. And Mother refused absolutely to give him the rest of the candy—until he came back. Arrived at Grandmother's the whole tale had to be repeated (in front of Jason) for the benefit of Uncle Bob who took Uncle Dee to the conclusion of the story, with many promptings. Jason delivered Father's nickel and a stereotyped apology. Father came in and Jason greeted his new audience with delight. Uncle Fred know what Jason do? Stole a money an bought a story. Uncle Bob took a story. So candy came Daddy? "Of course it was terrible," said Aunt Jane who was relating the incident, "but he was so cut. He just told it all over again, and then he told it all over again." Children make mistakes, get into mischief and sometimes intentionally break something, or planation of the wrong-doing and its consequences, given by one person, may bear a great deal of weight. But others may not. The difference of the wrong-doing by several persons is almost sure either to crush the child or, more likely, make someone else suffer. Very clever. If he finds that doing something he shouldn't is a very sure way of attracting a great deal of surprise, the soon makes use of the discovery.

Sunbeams And Science If the sun is shining today go into your room and watch the dust pass from the sunbeams people have watched sunbeams for years, and then one day a scientist, saw them and put them to work. Tyndall was a great scientist who was able to increase their effectiveness in detecting particles of water. He did much to increase their effectiveness where the microscopes would no longer show the tiny particles. This was in his lab and the chemists know as colloidal solutions. Gelatin is one of these solutions.

Y.-Predicting that unless the organized labor movement in America ceases to countenance the right to union would suffer, Riena B. Lemus president of the Brotherhood of Dining Car Employees, urged union adherents to call for federation at a symposium on "The Negro In Industry" at Brookwood Labor Institute, Thursday. Brotherhood is the organized labor institution of higher training, maintained by the American Federation of Labor affiliations, with a focus on color and the present symposium is being held with the cooperation of the National Urban League and the N. Y. C. P. A large number of leaders and social workers are in attendance. **Compers Opportunist** Samuel Gompers compers all different policy issues urged a different policy in which every working man's feet will rest firmly on the ground of equal trades union opportunity and will be represented as between working man and working man must go. Speaking of the achievements of the Brotherhood, we pointed out that dishwashers now get more pay than the average chief of ten years ago and that all wages have increased 100 per cent. Contracts governing wages, rules and disposal of grievances have increased with three others vitually conceding similar recognition. In 1810, the organization got from the company of the 8-hour-day and time and one-half overtime, not just for its own members but for the dushy men.

Learn something not so you know about it, but so you know it. Save, save, save; and when you've got it then give, give, give. Nothing is so easy or so wasteful as the work of hating—except hating work. And that goes for races as well as for individuals. Get a competency. Then the world — white or colored — will concede that you are competent. Only business contact with the community as a whole — white and colored — will educate the colored man in business. Learn business; Establish a credit; Provide for your own wants. That is my message to our group. You can — a meritorious man of business. But to get out of the mental place requires the thrift that produces property. And property enlarges life. Work then not for gain alone, but for enlarged life that creates Life is pretty much what you make it — and making it big means using every day of it Be honest.

Herman, manager of the audit bureau of circulation, told delegates attending the convention of the Association of National Advertisers recently. The purpose of circulation does not constitute a sure guide for the advertiser looking for a sale of his products. it is the "right kind of advertiser" and the BURNS RESULTS "We have been passing through a distressing period of indiscriminate newspapers and magazines have been published with no attendant increase in value, but with decided increase in the cost of advertising." Publishers have but yourself to blame. Publishers do not want to pervert this uneconomic thing, but you for them do it when you see them on the newspapers solely on the factor of having the largest circulation. Make the publishers sell you the elements of their circulations. Don't be afraid to buy the smaller circulation, if the indications are it has the proportion of the right kind of motifs. Mr. Hern's statement gives food for thought as to what is the right way to sell his products so that a great snare-buyers in the country prefer buying space in newspapers with circulation confined to a given city or town, so a larger city may be received. A newspaper may have a million circulation scattered over the country and yet fail to obtain the desired results for the audience. One of the potent reasons for the AFRO-AMERICAN can be able to land outstanding advertisers is because of the large number of five-hundred miles from where the paper is published. This gives the advertiser a large number of prospects to draw from. Space buyers who want to reach the builing public in this vicinity find the AFRO-AMERICAN a medium for advertising because the AFRO-AMERICAN has through years of effort built a circulation in the most for-mentioned city. The circulation reaches the homes. That kind of circulation counts. Finance Corporation For Newark George*W. Buckner, Vice-President and General Manager of the People's Alliance corporation.

'Tatt was the first president to make registration his chief executive. A motor brougham was purchased for the White House at the beginning of his administration in 1909. During the latter period, the secret service the secret service kept an automobile at the White House, but President Roosevelt did not care for it and seldom rode in it. Harding was the first president who had driven car himself. The Pathfinder. GOOD MORNING JUDGE The Afro Court Reporter The Afro Court Reporter "It is this way. Your Honor, my wife and I were here, ages ago, and she is always accusing me of going around with other women, so when I came home I was surprised to see a supper leader and could not explain where she had been all day. I thought that she was going to kill me, so I took that I slapped her, but this is the first quarrel that we have had, and I hope it is the last." She told the judge, "I'll dismiss you, if it is agreeable to the wife." Mrs. Green raised no objection and the two left the courtroom arm in place. "Your Honor," said Mrs. Annie Miller, HI2. 1802, pointing to Mrs. Martha Swan. 760 Bradley street) put in jail just as long as you can keep her "What is the charge?" asked the Magistrate, looking at the two women on his bed, and often in the Northwestern, Monday. "Well, Judge, I came home Sunday and found all the furniture in my room had been smashed, and I had a neighbor told me that they saw this woman going in my house. Sunday morning with an axe, and I just knew that. That sounds bad, Martha," said the judge. "What have you to say to these charges?" I have just noticed this much to say, Yet, that Mrs. Miller knows well that I didn't break up her furniture and she knows who did. Her gentlemen friend came and asked, because she didn't give him any money, he cut up all her clothes and gave her a beating, and I wouldn't be surprised to see the next furniture too, because the next morning he packed up and left town. Those are the facts, Judge whether you believe them or not. "Case dismissed," said the Magistrate. "Case dismissed." Robert Cabel, a native of Virginia, was arranged in the Criminal Court, Monday, on a charge of stealing money from the theatre. "What have you to say," asked the judge after all the evidence had been given. Judice "said Cabel. I sure am one勇敢 child and I only ask the mercy of the court. I confess I took the cable but it happened like this. I just got it. I was arrested and was broke and hungry. I went into that theatre which was vacated and went to sleep. When I woke up I was hungrier than ever so I just took that cable to sell and get some coffee money. But before I could sell coffee locked in the jail, judge and I haven't got to say about Battimore. I like it very much. I said the judge, "elad you like us," said the judge, "but since you've already spent 16 days in our jail you want to enjoy the rest of the city so find the nearest road leading to the city as you so but don't come back. I dismiss you."

Do setting hens have a higher temperature than hens not setting—Ans. According to the U. S. Bureau of Animal Industry, a setting hen should be set at a temperature than a non-setting hen, the difference being about one degree, although the temperature of a setting hen is slightly higher than the temperature of a non-setting hen on hatching eggs the temperature tends to increase as the incubation period progresses. In the developing embryos, generate heat. The Pathfinder. USED CAR S.P.A.R.K.S BY NOAH M. THOMPSON USED CARS - TIRES - GARAGES - REPAIRS, ETC. Howdy, Folks!

Some tribes used salt and some did not. The Eskimos regarded it as an abomination, while the Indians used it as a condiment.

THE GREAT GAME OF ADVERTISING Press dispatches one day last week told of the tainure of one of the mullinery shops in one of the largest towns west of the Missouri river. The great advertising campaign which was carried on by the receiver, for the purpose of getting rid of the headgear that was in stock. Estimates given by the daily that carried the story said that ninety per cent of the women of the town visited the auction sale and bought hats. Each and every hat was up to the last minute in style. Seeing the great throng of women coming to main entrance to the store, the proprietor asked have said to the auctioneer, "Your newspaper advertisement has certainly brought them here." The lesson that is to be drawn from the remarks of the proprietor of the store is that had he used the method which was used by the auctioneer, wouldn't have been a bankrupt sale. Statistics from our leading manufacture magazines say that women buy 83% of the merchandise purchased in America. A woman's hat is a necessary commodity. The store was thrown into bankruptcy, was because he failed to use the modern method in attracting women to his store. Newspaper advertisements are the key to the pocketbook of the women who buy newspapers from the columns of the newspaper before they leave home. No business can t. take much of a headway unless the owner of the store details to the women what he has in stock in the columns of the newspaper. Advertising pays—it matters not what you have to sell the Newspapers make the best salesman. newspaper advertisement has cer- tain. The owner of the millinery store in the western city has been convinced. — It is up to you, Mr. Small Business. THE AFRO-AMERICAN has a clientele that must买 all of the necessities of life. We suggest that you bid for this trade. --- --- DAY WORKERS WANTED WHITE'S EMPLOYMENT AGENCY 1028 Penn Ave. Phone, Ver. 7952 AGENTS WANTED—to see Dr. Link's Keep police. Infr. free samples.

But we can hardly believe the man who wrote "Home Sweet Home" was ever put out in the street by his landlord, or he would not have composed a song attaching such tender feelings to the home. So we would advise all who sing that beautiful ballad to be sure that their "Home Sweet Home" is their own, for unless they do some of these days the old landlord will break up those dreams about "Home Sweet Home" by telling you the old rent's gonna be raised and you'll have to pay it or "git" out.
