BERTHS Both Fourth District Councilmen To Head Important Groups REPUBLICANS STILL HAVE CITY CONTROL Any One Councilman May, However, Upset Balance Of Power Both councilmen Walter S. Emerson and Warner T. McGuinn of the Fourth District, will have important committee chairmanships, if and as when, the majority in that body are sure they have wrested the appointment of committees from the hands of the president, Howard Bryant. In a stormy session Tuesday night, in which the solid Republican and one Democrat combination held like a stone wall, the council voted to take the committee appointments from Howard Bryant and do their own appointing. As a peak Eminent Publications Committee on Public Institutions and City Property, while McGuinn was given the committee on Highways, Traffic and Bridges. Studying Program Councilmen McGuinn and Emerson say they are carefully studying plans for a legislative program the event that the publicisan holds firm. No one can prophesy, they say, just what may happen. They point out that any one publicisan councilman could upset the balance of power. Observers, however, point out that the best guess is that the Booning mayor, none of the Republicans are like him, and that O'Meara goes too far to turn back. This unusual situation will give the representatives of the Fourth District an excellent chance to put over any reasonable program in the district. It is also pointed that a councilman would be an advantage that may develop with such a closely divided council. Committee Work If the committee assignments made by the council holds all legislation coming and policing in respect to public busing, traffic and peace, they are referred to the committee headed by McGuinn and Emerson. Councilman Emerson, who is on the Park Committee will help formulate any change in policy effecting the stadium.

P.)—Mrs. Sarah Rector Campbell, wealthy Kansas City woman, will receive nearly $400,000 additional oil money as her share of profits that have been impounded since 1913 from oil production land of the Creek nation in Oklahoma. This is the result of a decision of the United States Circuit Court at St. Louis to award $400,000 to Oklahoma that Mrs. Campbell and other landowners were within their lease they leased oil property to the middle of the Cimarron River in Oklahoma. Oil companies operating the leases and the federal government had contended Mrs. Campbell and other owners could lease only to the river bank. The profits from production on the disputed territory have amounted to three millions of dollars since 1913, of which Mrs. Campbell, the appraiser, paid $400,000. The Campbells are housekeeping here in comparatively modest fashion and are in aplex. In contrast to the half dozen Cadillacs they and their relatives owned three years ago, they now maintain one car, a Lincoln with a cabriolet body by Judkins.

Elcazer of Atlanta, director of the Interracial Commission, who spoke on the "Art of Living Together"—a subject more important than any in text books—the pimp rIMARY art of life. Race prejudice as a common side he said. It is not instructive except that people tend to understand their own kind. It's natural to find closer friends among our own group than among the white group. Prejudice develops because we regard ourselves as people not like us as abnormal and inferior, the speaker said. Trouble arises when we exploit that which we think inferior, impose our own will on it and presume to speak for it better than it can represent itself. Out of this comes injustice and oppression.

WASHINGTON, D. C. With the New York Lodges of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World awaiting decision of the Grand Exalted Ruler as to the meeting place of the Grand Lodge in August, the matter was brought to a head last week by a decision of the courts of New York State in the Moore vs. Moore Case, setting forth that the Gratton Law is now in full force and effect, and putting Elks on notice of the judgment. With this law in effect, it is unlawful for any man or woman, not a member of the armed forces, to protect Protective Order of Elks, to use the word as a part of designation of their organization, or to wear insignia that would confuse them with the white fraternity. Such as willfully break the law are liable to fine and imprisonment, or to the permanent imprisonment, is such a one, in equity, that the Governor of the state is powerless to parole offen- At a meeting of the grand trustees of the order on May 10, the New York Lodges were given one mouth in which to lift the injunction, the legislature having failed to report it to the governor so power was given to the Grand Exalted Ruler J.

A rigid investigation of charges made by James Felton, to Daville, Va., authorities that he had been held in servitude for 15 years will be investigated by the Department of Justice. It was announced last week. The attention of the Department of Justice, called to the story by the N. A. A. C. P., and Director Hoover of the bureau ordered an immediate investigation. Felton, who appeared in Daville, Va. his last week of service, and in a condition, stated that he had made his way North on foot, following his escape from the Georgia farm and declared that 50 other men and boys had been held in treatment on this farm where they were held in virtual slavery. The investigation will no doubt be made from the Atlanta office of the Dennis Story Despite the fact that similar cases have been reported in Georgia, for which men are now serving terms in federal prison, he was also branded Felton's story as without foundation and untrue. "The story is preposterous on its face," said the Governor, "but such information is not received." He stated that he had not received detailed information from the Danville police, but that as soon a site information was received, he would institute a rigid investigation. According to Felton, the plantation is near Lexington, 52 miles from Athens and was run by a Dr. King. The sheriff's name he said was John Killed With Ax Felton also declared that he had seen tenants on the place struck by the fire and that he had assisted in burying those who had thus been killed and others who had been shot. He showed physique and was very keenly tooth as a result of his teeth being knocked out with a club in the hands of one of the firefighters who had been scaled with hot water. Felton left this week for Athens, Ga. where he was taken to give places and details concerning charges in Oglethorpe County, Georgia. Felton is a witness in the trial of the B. R. King physician, who was beheaded in the United States Supreme Court on the charge of penance. Police decline to divulge by what route Felton would travel Georgetown, where he died they say, by instructions from the Department of Justice.

Saturday, June 11, 1927 AVERAC HAMPTON HEAD HITS PRESS IN ADDRESS HERE Teachers Advised To Waste No Time On Newspapers And Magazines STANDARD OF AVERAGE READER CALLED "LOW" Sidewalk Stands Said To Be Filled With Garbage And Trash School teachers of this city were advised not to waste their time reading newspapers by Dr. James E. Gregg, president of Hampton Institute, in an address here Friday. The occasion was an educational mass meeting under the auspices of the Schroemann's Club in the Doug- Auditorium. Dr. Gregg advised his hearses to print these 52 postal cards that would be delivered at them each week containing the motto "Don't Waste Time Reading Wearables and Periodicals," as a constant reminder that they should not mind on books instead. Fifteen Minutes The average newspaper, he said, is worth about fifteen minutes. Desperate their hustle, busy presses the sale contain little worthiness of which you'll never read. The reading of transient material is said deprives, as of much value, could be a book. Everything that is printed in newspapers is printed afterward in book form. The Saturday Evening Post is one of the types of periodicals not bad, a book. It is baffling, said Dr. Gregg, that common taste in literature is low. To use an ordinary expression, most of us use it little more. Classical Authors Honor Daniele Victor Hugo, Virgil, Seekapelle Milton, Hawthorne, Washington Irving, Longfellow, Lowell Emmerson, Philips, Brooks. Joseph Connard was rested as types of authors whose books should be read. The Bible was also included. The great trouble, he said, is not the great trouble, he said, is not The great trouble, he said, is not educated, but to keep educated. Favorite Author Dr. Green advised the teachers to have a favorite author, to become well acquainted with him. Know about his family and to know the difference between his earlier and later works to read, articles and to take notes. There should be spiritual neatness and a spiritual kindling between you and your favorite author, he said, so that if we meet him on the other side there will be some questions you would like to have him clear up. As we grow older, essays and biographies should form larger part of teaching the students it is important not only read but to think.

MINERS AT WAR IN SOFT COAL STRIKEAREA White Union Men Attack route To Shafts NUMBER OF COLORED MINERS ON INCREASE Union Officials See Strike Is Lost Unless Colored Workers Cooperate PITTSBURGH, PA.—Race miners working in local non union soft coal mines before and since the strike which opened April 1, in the central competitive region of the bituminous fields, have been the object of open assault by union forces during the past week. New Kensington, a small town near here was the scene of the trouble The Kincloc mine of the Valley Camp Coal Company is locted there. John Williams, race miner, of Washington Pa. was attacked by an officer as the company worked with two companions, who fled when they saw Williams beaten and kicked. Williams Arrested The second trouble occurred at Third Avenue and Ninth Street in New Kensington at noon Saturday. Chief of Police Lloyd, Shuster ordered the police one out of the house they were going to work in the non-union mine. The third trouble occurred in Third Avenue of that town when a racer miner was beaten, then a car and told to return to Pittsburgh. Increasing Daily Officials of the mine, however, declared there was no trouble. About 150 miners are at work. Despite these small flareups, however, and despite the efforts of the United Mine Workers to keep race men from working in non-union mines, the man power of such mines is increasing daily, and consequently the production. A bitter battle has waged between non-union operators and the union for nearly two years in this district. Latest reports indicate that the union is losing out in its stand. Race miners have and are playing one of the most vital parts in this industrial drama that has ever played save in the coal and automobile industries, some years ago. The controversy actually wages about them. The unions did not encourage Negro members until recently, when it was discovered success could be achieved by the Negro business. Negro members, but the unions waited a little too late and thousands of race miners found themselves in good mine jobs without the union's assistance. Consequently they have failed to see a real reason to join now and be automatically Excellent Treatment Excellent treatment is accorded to all the race miners by local non-union operators. In addition to making good money and holding good jobs, they are given encouragement to invest savings in stock of the Pittsburgh Coal Company, which manages the best employee plans in the country. Race miners at first liable to lay off a few days out of each pay, have grasped the benefits of a steady work-steady pay policy on the part of the company and are now proving to be the best of workmen. Leahay Felt Jealousy by their success has naturally been felt by the union which delights in calling the race miners 'imprant cotton pickers.' Rumor has it that E. H. Gary head of the United States Steel Corporation and the an American and Tapil mining and Cleveland coal by the Rockefellers have been battling for control of the largest soft coal company in the world. All these men have issued denials. But the name of Tapil continues to be mentioned in the fight. He dominates the Pittsburgh Terminal Coal Corporation here. A combination of this is pending, according to high officials. Such a development will practically spell the death of the union locally and will, at the same time spell still greater opportunities, as it can be employed in great numbers by the entire Western Pennsylvania field. In the West Virginia field there are now more Negro than white miners. Cry for HOWARD NEEDS $24,000 OF A HALF MILLION W. Justin Carter Elected Trustee At Annual Meet- ing Tuesday BODY AUTHORIZES NEW DEPT. OF COMMERCE University With Three Mill- lions Winds Up Year Without Deficit WASHINGTON, D. C.— The board of trustees of Howard university in its annual commencement meeting held in the board room of the university library Tuesday elected two new members and reelected seven trustees whose terms were expiring. William Justin Carter, lawyer, of Harrisburg, Pa., was elected as an alumni member. He was one of three nominees selected by the general alumni association. His term will expire in 1930. His election gives the alumni three trustees, the other two being Dr. C. Sumner Wormley and Dr. Sara W. Brown. Mr. Carter graduated from the college department of Howard University in 1890 and from the law school in 1892. For two years after graduation from the law school he taught in the public schools of Annapolis. Md. He began the practice in Harrisburg in 1894. He was president of the Howard University alumni Association from June, 1893 to June, 1895. Dr. Walter Gray Crump, a surgeon, of New York City, was elected to another vacancy. His term will expire in 1928. The trustees whose terms were expiring were elected. They are Howard Crawford, New Haven, Conn.; Rolfe Colebigh, Boston, Mass.; John R. Hawkins, Justice Stanton J. Pelle, Rev. Ulysses G. B. Pierce, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, New York City, and General John H. Sherburne, Boston, Mass. Dept. Of Commerce The board of trustees decided to establish a department of commerce and finance under the college of liberal arts with George William Cook as the head. It will take the place of the school of commerce and finance which was abolished as a reorganization of university by R. J. Leonard of Columbia University, in 1925. The action of the board on the petition of the alumni for the reinstatement of Alaine LeRoy Lock, former professor of philosophy; Alonzo H. Brown, former professor of mathematics; Metz Lock, former professor of French and Orlando C. Thornton, former instructor in finance, was not made public. Dr. Mordecal W. Johnson, university president, will convey the action of the board directly to the alumni association before its meeting. The teachers were dismissed in conformity with the reorganization report of Mr. Leonard. Their services as teachers were dispensed with June 30, 1925, but they were paid a year's salary. Retirement Next Year Legislation providing for the retirement of professors, associate professors, assistant professors and administrative officers of the university who have served for a period of not less than 20 years at the age of 65 years upon their application, or for a period of 68 years and automatically at the age of 70 years. This retirement plan will become effective next year. President Johnson submitted his first annual report to the board showing that one of the chief accomplishments of his administration is the having on hand a surplus for the school year years. He reported that the total enrollment for this school year aggregated 2.404 students, the largest in the history of the university. The major administrative problem he said, has been to supply adequate instruction with a faculty-manned and well-manned and shadow of an accumulated deficit of $87,084.20. $24,000 Needed¹ Dr. Johnson also reported that the campaign for the endowment of the school will be limited within $24,000 of its goal. This means that the sum of $250,000 will have been secured from the general public to meet the conditional gift of $250,000 from the General Education Board. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of the university, reported that the deficit of $17,724 of last year had been overcome and the university has the sum of $5,000 toward the reduction of the accumulated deficit of the past five years, the assets of the university, he stated, have been increased from $2,587,753.16 to $3,122,625.60. There has been expended in the construction of the new medical school building, he reported, the sum of $222,000. **Income** $610,000 The budget committee reported a probable income of $610,000 next year. The budget of next year was set at a figure of $20,000 less in order to achieve the stated deficit by one-fourth. A congressional appropriation of $368,000 including an item of $150,000 for the construction of a new dormitory for women was reported for next year. The budget of this year was also reported, and the sum of $40,000 was appropriated to cover repairs and improvements next year.

White Rapists Not Black Caused Coffeyville Riot NEW YORK—Charges made by Attorney Elisha Scott, retained by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in the case of the effect that white rapists not colored were responsible for the race riot of March 18 in Coffeyville, Kan., are now admitted in a front-page display story in the Coffeyville Daily Journal of May 10, which says: "Whites—not Negroes—were the bedfellows of Julia Mooney and Margaret Akers. Coffeyville high school girls, the night of March 17, the black letter night in the city's history which led up to rooting, mob violence and bloodshed. if prosecutions started by the state are based As early as May 11, in response to telegraphic appeal from the Coffeyville Branch, the National Office of the N. A. A. C. P. wired Attorney Elisha Scott, asking him to go at once to Coffeyville. Mr. Scott, on May 15, reported to the N. A. A. C. P.: Scott said, "This case is of unusual importance because the Negroes made a stand, turned back the mob and saved the property of our folks. And it is a fact without dispute, that these two white girls that I might have named, were not assaulted by Negroes." Mr. Scott, retained by Ace Coyle, undertaken the defense of two colored men, Anderson and Ford, who are charged with infringement which ran riot in the Negro district. All of the white people arrested in connection with the rioting have been discharged. The N. A. A. C. P. is financing the case. According to the Coffeyville Daily Journal Ira Kennedy, white former automobile salesman, has been arrested charged with rape, and one of the school girl "victims," Julia Mooney, is held charged with being an accessory to the attack on the police. At least two white men are arrested, according to semi-official detections," reports the Coffeyville Daily Journal. "It is also rumored that persons alleged to have offered to use money in advertising the course of justice will feel the heavy hand of the law." In the course of the riot, which followed the assault upon the white girls a number of Negroes were brutally assaulted and beaten by the white mob one at least being for dead. Mr. Scott's son, N. A. C. P., part: "The record shows that the white boy was shot through the hand and one tell the ground and his shoulder was dislocated and was beaten, but our investigation shows from rumor that can be relied upon, that at least three white men were killed, probably more." The mob fired upon by colored men defending themselves "was stopped before they reached Anderson's Pool Hall." Men and Women prefer Madam C.J. WALKER'S GLOSSINE THE MADAM C.J. WALKER MFG. CO.

When he entered the hospital, nearly exhausted from loss of blood his companions, both his brothers and his sisters, were lying and cheered him and the colors till they could cheer no longer.

When starting upon their desperate salute, Colonel Stanford of the 1st Regiment, the regiment regimental colors, to the color-guard, made a brief and patriotic address, closing with words: "Color-guard: Protect, defend, die for, but do not surrender, these colors; the naval flag sergeant Pliancianos, taking them replied: 'Colonel: I will bring back these colors to you in honor, or report to God the reason why.' Six times with desperate valor they charged over ground where success was hopeless; the point between them was the works of them, yet strange to say, six times they were ordered forward and six times they went to useless death, until sweep by the blazing breath of shot and shell before which nothing living could stand. They were sent to the battlefield, in spades. Refusing to leave the field though his arm had been shattered by a bullet, he returned to the charge until killed by a shell. Thoughts Of The Founder In fitting yourselves for positions do not forget that one thing every boy and girl ought to know is stick- to-liveness. Too many of our young people are looking for something easy. Too easy things are not to be picked up every day. I have never found any easy thing and I have lived here for a number of years. 15 Minutes A Day For Newspapers Newspapers and periodicals received a left jab from Rev. James E. Gregg, president of Hampton Institute speaking in Baltimore Friday night. Rev. Gregg's topic was "Reading and Meditation" and he carefully warned his audience that fifteen minutes a day was enough to devote to newspapers. "Don't waste your time reading newspapers and periodicals said the Hampton president and mentioned the "Saturday Evening Post" as the type of periodicals to be avoided. No newspapers were mentioned by name. Rev. Gregg termed the average low taste of the American reader as pathetic and the corner newsstands as laden with "garbage" and "trash." Books are the thing. Dr. Gregg believes and he reminds us that the best part of what is in the press today tomorrow is in book form. Allowing for the fact that the president of Hampton is a New Englander, spent five years at Harvard, three at Yale, 15 in the Congregational ministry before becoming president of Hampton, it is easily understood why he should prefer the classics to current periodicals and newspapers. His utterance is a reminder of what would happen should the censorship of the press be given over to a Congregational clergyman. Much can be said in favor of the present popularity of the press. Granted that what is in the newspaper today is in book form tomorrow. Why wait that long? So far as the matter contained in weekly colored press in concerned, where shall we find a book dealing with the Supreme Court's decision in the Democratic Primary Case, or the present situation in the Mississippi River Valley, where peonage and oppression prevail. As to costs, a few pennies bring a world of information to readers who have neither the dollar to purchase the classics nor the understanding to read them intelligently. Blanket condemnation of the press is like blanket condemnation of the ministry. No one doubts that there are trastly newspapers any more than Elmer Gantrys among the clergy. The picture of a colored man buried in the classics while the Ku Klux Klan moves New York. A mob in Arkansas lynch a malefactor and a Georgia farmer holds 45 men and women in peonage might seem delightful to Reagan, who reminds us of Henry Grady's ex-slave, asleep on a bale of cotton.

Pinchot, a Roosevelt Republican with a proven record of interest in the humblest man and concern for the welfare of Negroes as well as whites could beat the wettest Democrat in Philadelphia in a city election. This type of a Republican election, state election or National edidle will keep Al Smith from getting votes among the Negroes to speak of outside of New York where the colored people maintain the only effective Democratic organization in America. If President Al Smith could handle those Southern Democrats in Congress who are hostile to the Negroes' scaled northern ideas, as Governor Smith has managed the pestiferous Republicans who have controlled the legislature of New York, then Al would suit the Negroes better than Cal. Merry (?) Go-Round (By the Cameraman P.N.S.) An aged colored woman, working at the "Merry-Go-Round" of an eastern canning factory, otherwise known as the mechanical conquer which carries the empty can' around, where tired hands fill the cans with food products just prior to capping, recently made the following remark to an inspector who was making observations of conditions of labor: "See dem blue glasses? Well, I wear 'em because if I don't dem pans go' round en' round all de time makes me drunk." This suivant contrivance on its endless way through the long ten-hour was subjecting the humble Negro matron and her co-workers to a strain which was wearing down her pants a pity nine or ten dollars a week. Women who are busy promoting sewing circles and five hundred clubs, as well as the men who are involved in the support of the real refinement of life, would do well to take a place at the council table, whose delegates are striving to protect womanhood in industry, to protect the rights of women will act, then Congress and the Federal Government may, if asked in the proper way.

Regulated Traffic "A colored man was lynched in an Arkansas city the other day. After being hanged and shot full of bulrush, he was taken to a street corner in the Negro section of town and burned. The city where this happened was a good-sized, ordinarily well-regulated neighborhood. You're wondering "Where were the police while all this was going on?" Well, the last paragraph of the news dispatch that told of the lynching. The police directed traffic, which congested the streets for blocks around the scene. —From the Vallejo · (Cal.)

During the last Congress, the fiscally conservative Coolidge to give a swift kick to the financial interests of the agricultural west when he turned down the money to stabilize farm product prices and thereby INCREASE THEIR WAGES. And that quiet man in the White House the middle west are republicans or democrats at voting time only in proportion as these parties serve the moguls of economic and civil life. You must serve them sentimental palver and at the same time deliver them to the moguls of economic and civil life. So Coolidge reasons that a few summer months ostensibly fishing for trout but pulling in also a few more fishing for his political health in 1928. If the Negro voter was as inexperienced as a set of leaders unwilling to exchange or sell what little influence they possess, individuals possess of potage, COOLIDGE WOULD DO A LITTLE FISHING AMONG THEM. Democratic Votes nother good practical lesson of the value of the "emancipated voter," the definition of Democrat in the general election the Republican party in the city will have a chance to show its mettle and by virtue of our democratic counselman city government promises to be fully dominated by a Republican can mayor. Suppose both Democrats and Republicans have been followed the advice of some of our Republican and Democratic friends and cling ALWAYS UNWVERTED to PARTY AVALUEMENT what chance would the Republicans have had? When party leaders understand that they must merit support and reflect the will of the majority instead of the organizations, the case of the voter gets much more consideration. It is not a Republican in Baltimore today who would not agree that it was A GOOD THING THAT A NUMBER OF DEMOCRATS WOULD THE REPUBLICAN TICKET. A Minister "Within The Law" There will no doubt be unanimous agreement that the Rev. A. J. Greene, pastor of St. James the Great, entirely "within the law" when in a duly called church meeting comprising 35 of 600 listed members, he urged and obtained from the church a number of incumbents with whom he could not work smoothly, and Judge Stanton could not justly be given other decision on the point of law. There will, however, be a great many people who will regard the court decree a sweeping decision of the more serious more issues given to the church, and the affair becomes dangerously unfortunate. For the last few years there has been no doubt that the church is strong lack of proper respect for the Christian ministry and a consequent lessening spirituality in the church. Go deep into the issues which position the fight between the Rev. A. J. Greene and the deacons of his church and you commence to understand why youth is looking elsewhere than the church for their desired Take one issue, for instance, that one involving the moral right of the pastor to submit an essay to a man's full fare when in fact he only paid half fare, and which has not only been condoned BUT also not based on a law. INSTERS OF THE DENOMINATION. Intelligent young men and women can well understand the moral and blood like other human beings, could commit a moral breach KNOWN TO BE WRONG, but their conscience rewarded them with a questionable transaction to the sanctuary of righteousness. On Par With Professional Jobs Another serious blunder the ministry is making is putting itself apart par with other officials. Take away the unselfish worldly poverty of Jesus Christ; the Cross of Calvary and His passion; the ministry without regard for money or station, would mean more to struggling humanity than a thousand ministers working on the basis of "adequate salary." Daylight Saving In Baltimore The Baltimore Association of Commerce is pushing a measure to bring about daylight saving in Baltimore against the fight against it. Councilmen from the Fourth District will no doubt have something to do with Daylight saving might be profitable for the gentlemen who go to work at 9:00 A. M. and stop at the man or woman who already are on their way to work when most people are asleep. IT WILL BE A HARD task not summer days when the only possible sleeping hours of those who live in the congested sections of the city are the man, M. and sunrise, to set their clocks back in order that a few men and women might have an added hour necessary, but unfair. There are undoubtedly many industrial institutions whose employees would profit by starting nurseries. But why not let each individual case be adjusted according to its best interest? Servants are the hardest case to hire by daylight saving, for they not only must so an hour earlier, but must stay later to accommodate those who take advantage of sunlight. Then if the rule to lengthen the day in summer is a good one why not in the winter to shorten the day? Let's not add more to the bur- dens of the possibilities of an hour's rest, when most of them must be hot summer months through the hot summer months. The Afro-American—Baltimore.

All School Teachers Should Be Encouraged To Get Married Thinks To The Editor: Permit me to set forth my views on the married teacher problem, so much discussed by patrons and teachers at Where in all America, can there be found, one who can put into the young minds the foundation of decency, good breeding and good civil moral conduct, than a woman who is herself married, and trying to raise a family? No one is able to raise a child without straining than she, and it should not be lost sight of, that education is not all any race needs to be true lofty citizens, when it is considered the need of a child to daily for a livelihood, and largely for others the parent leaves the home early, leaves little ones to get ready to go to school, and the essentials of character or citizenship but the teacher, then pray tell me who is more capable than a woman who herself has children, without any reflection upon those opportunities? The operations of our school by them should be to encourage all but the young women who are teachers become prostitutes in order to hold their places in our schools? When we advise them, the system will set in a pattern of espionage, more devilish and tyrannical than is practiced by the Sultan of Turkey. No teacher will give the pen of those less informed or who envy those who may succeed in getting a place in our school system. Again, it would seem, the married teacher would out of pride ask to be relieved four months before maternity, to ward off criticism of those who are not the victims of the others. Again, not all single women like children.

The Teacher: "O. would some power the gift to give us, ot see ourselves as others see us." This is my sentiment concerning the pearlure utterance of Maxbelle Robbins, the most estimable journal. Her bitter railings and heartrending anions on the need of a consecrated ministry are truly pathetic and to some degree amusing. "O evidently suffering from a 'provincial complex' which has apparently rendered her utterly capable of writing of things. We must admit however, that she has certainly chosen a theme that bids for popularity with the proletariat even though she miserably fails to present a convincing.

To the Editor: To church because the average preacher is a grand and enilent hypocrite. They preach things that they know are not true and they are not the chief wisdom or the highest division of learning that are closely related to their calling. Preachers have done it, we have the biologists and three-fourths of them have never read The Origin of the Species of the Descent in Man, and a thousand who know what it meant when an informed person uses the term "Darwinism" and state permits were required for preaching just as for practicing law and if theological preacher factories had standards high in the men now preaching would lose their jobs. Perhaps small town stores, factories and the farm would get church to particularly be better off. Of course, I will say here as I have said before that all this is my perseverance.

Terrors Of An Arkansas Lying As By A Member Of The 24th infantry. To The Editor: Upright men will be astonished at this, and the innocent shall stir up himself against the hypocrite. In the homes they brayed; in the streets they gathered together. And John Carter was their song, yea, and their byword. They abhorred him, they went for him, and spared not to spit in his face. In their hands they carried chains; they chained his feet, and they ralsed up against him in the ways of their destruction. They barred his path, they stretched forward their hands, they have no mercy. They went upon him as a wide breaking in of waters; in the desolation they rolled themselves up on him: terrors were turned upon him; they pursued his soul as the wind and his welfare passeth away as a cloud. And now his soul is poured out upon them; the day of affection is over he will multiply his days in the sand. His bones were pierced in him in the day; season; and his sinews took no rest. They cast fire upon him, and he became like dust and ashes. He cried unto them, and they did not hear him; He stood up, and they regarded him. Did not I weep for him that was in trouble? Yes. Was not my soul grieved for you? Yes. Was not my soul grieved to go to thee. The veil came to him: and when he waited for light, there came darkness. His bowels boiled and rested not: the skin was black upon him, and his skin was black upon him, and his bones were burned with heat.

The Writer Of This Article Has The Chance To Become A Skilled Mechanic If He Wants To. And Give Travel to Africa Also and Stay There. To the Editor: In the last issue of the AFROAMERICAN. I read where you called this Our United States; and in another place on our campus you will soon be made of delegations to the White House to ask President Coolidge to abolish segregation in government departments. I wonder the white man can get to see the president in regards to equality of rights. If this country belongs to Negroes why do they have take the best they can get. I think Negroes have tolerated Jim Crowism a long time for it to be temporary. I think it will be so, too as long as he doesn't produce anything that would need. We are beholding to the white man. The white man can make us go naked. I wouldn't like to see our profession be reduced to a muddle Hill availment with no clothes on. It would be a terrible sight if the white man should tell us to take off our clothes and would give us no more. The Negro would have to do something then besides arguing a case, pulling a tooth or directing a school. I repeat, the race needs master mechanics in proportion to our professional men. When the Negro gets things of his own he can boss them to suit himself and won't have to be the white man not to segregate him. Speaking of the growing number of mulattoes, I think absorption should be discouraged. The trouble with the Negro is that he tries to get away from himself. He doesn't want to be a Negro and doesn't want to own his homeland; the land that God gave him, the richest country in the world, Africa, the birthplace of man. Negroes like to own any other country but Africa. Do you suppose God placed diamonds in Africa for the monkeys and savages to wear? Well, I am sorry I am a light complexioned man. I find it doesn't make me recognized any more among white men than the blackest man in the United States. Walter Newby, 307 Suffolk St., Norfolk, Va.

Heard and Seen In Baltimore RALPH MATTHEWS The American Federation of Labor has been asked to create a chapter for hardworking wives. Now when women get women'ed of their husbands they can all march on a strike. As members of the union they took over other hours and more allyship. Marriage is one industry in which strike breakers will not be tolerated. Now that wives are asking wages, all a man has to do to get a wife is to call up the employment agency. Of course a woman will have to bring good references from her last husband if they don't suit the groom to call of the wedding and refuse to hire her. Wives who get all their meals with women who get all their classes as skilled laborers. They would have to brin gtheir own tools with them, however. If a wife is late reporting for work in the morning the husband could take it out of their wages on Saturday night. To avoid all disputes women could be hired if many folks with a time clock instead of a wedding ring Of course if the husband was late coming home for supper the wife could charge him for having to work over time. While it is not absolutely compulsory most wives would be expected to work over time. Of course she would have to be satisfied with sleeping in the servant's quarters. It has been a custom for most marriages wives to dress wires before leaving the house in the morning but a man couldn't afford to become too familiar with the help. A young bride would have to go to cooking school in order to hold her job. If her biscuits turn out bad like the bread fired before the honeycomon is over. A wife stays in the family a long time she might make herself indispensable. Many wives have been known to work for one man all their lives. Others jump from one job to another. If a wife is faithful until the end, she may be remembered in the wife's memory of the family when the old man dies. If women join the union it would be unlawful for a woman who belonged to the cooking division to do the family washing. She couldn't have any children until she joined the nursemaids' local. Old fashioned mothers would be snobbed by the members because they raised children without a union contract. If a wife does her work well her husband might give her Thursday afternoons off. She can get a half day off on holidays if she promises to make up for lost time. If marriage was really a wage earning proposition a wife couldn't object if her husband married two or three other women to help her with the house work. There wouldn't be half as many desertions if men hired their wives, because if a wife ran away, wife giving her husband two weeks would sue her for breach of contract. If a man came home unexpectedly and caught his wife playing cards he could dock her for loafing during working hours. To keep in gossiping with his wife he could make social calls forbidden the help from making social calls on the house phone. He would permit her to have callers but she would have to entertain them in the kitchen. The only time she would be permitted in the parlor would be to dust. Matrimony is the best thing ever invented for some wives because some wives were paid in accordance with a lot of祖辈 to death. THE LOSING DEACONS Now they had the awful ruction At the Fustest Baptist Church, And a half dozen deacons Lost their high and mighty perch. Well, it seems the reverend parson Had meddling power for the deacons And for every dollar That he borrowed, spent and owed. And the parson he got tainted So he thrown the deacons out Of the 'situtions they was holding And he put them all to rout. Now the church's pillars angry And the law And the entire Baptist body Was most overcome with awe. And the two sides hired their lawyers For to fight the mighty cause, And they sholly dragged the church In the mud of black disgrace. "Yes the parson is a angel." Said his lawyer to the cote. Then the 'torney for the deacons With his first the table smote. "No, the deacons are the angels, And the law is the law. And no second rated preacher's Gonna lead them in the lurch." So they had their great musingling Till the entire church was polled and the clergy all threw away Must have been forever spoiled. Then the judge he set and pondered On the merits of the case And 'nounced his great decision With a grave and solemn face. He said he. "Now the church is sep'rate From the functions and the cote. And the church is stopped minute For to cough and clear his throat. "That the parson is the leader Of this heaven going band And the church and all the deacons Should he under his command. He is right, he thrown them In a 'brupt and seduced way And the parson is sustained. The deacons pay. For the trial's whole expenses, And the parson still is boss. He is still the church's leader And the deacons' case is los'. The modern styles have lifted a great burden from the family clothes line. One wwe doesn't pick her husband's trickle.

Kelly Miller Says The Negroes in Harlem are for the most part cliff dwellers. Homeownership is relatively small as compared to Chicago. One walks for a straight mile along Grand Boulevard in Chicago and wonders what building are these, owned and occupied by Negro indwellers. If Harlem is the "Nigger Heaven," Chicago certainly inhabits the thoroughfares which more nearly approach the streets of the New Jerusalem. The Negroes Of New York And Chicago Some time ago, I wrote a release on the Chicago Negro. I tried to point out therein the singular achievement of the stated city, the windy city. New York has now become the Negro metropolis of the world. The lowest estimate gives the metropolis two hundred thousand more than against one hundred and fifty thousand for her Western rival. By tradition, the New York Negroes have every advantage, considerable number of old children with the rest Revolutionary days. They have enjoyed, in the main, essential advantages of political and equality with the old children. The educational opportunities have been open to every Negro citizen, on equal ters with the rest. The anti-slavery contest waged fiercely therein against the colored brother to blood sympathy with his kinsmen in bondage. The original population has been gradually reinforced suddenly august 1915, when stands of the column of all other municipalities. Race Segregated In Two Cities In the two cities, alike, the race is sharply segregated in clearly defined areas. The black belt contains ninety percent of New York's black population. Harlem contains a like proportion of New York's colored contingent, if we may except the Brooklyn group, which for our purposes, may as well be the heart of New York's Negro make up. The Negroes of Harelm and Brooklyn are as far apart in all essential ways as those of New York and Philadelphia. In New York, we mean Harelm; just as we mean the South side when discussing their Chicago counterpart. In both cities they affect to desigre segregated areas, and yet both shake the imbalance of it. The prestige and power of both groups are derived from their segregated situations, and yet the both shake the imbalance of it when the term is mentioned. Chicago is a comparatively new city. The Negroes for the most part are newcomers to the city, but the first set of Chicago, yet the great bulk of the present population, like the man from Borneo, has just come to Chicago. The large measure of political and civil freedom. Neither group has been subject to the many political and social changes in their blood brothers in the South. N. Y. Literary And Cultural Capital We should naturally expect New York to far outstrip its Western rival in any list of comparative accolades. We should not forget the Eastern metropolis, the reverse is true. It leads in only one particular. The literary and cultural capital of the race heads up the Crisis. Opportunity and the Messenger, our leading monthly magazines are located here. The N. A. A. C. P. with its N. A. G. C. P. with its Urbane League, and the Young Men's Christian Association have their headquarters in New York City. The poetess is likely to locate near the seat of literary power and inspiration. The great publishing houses are here. The grog literati like their white prototype gather here for cultural advantages and facilities of publication. One might expect that Washington University would become the literary and cultural capital of the race. But the local atmosphere is not congenial; the current sweeps everything before. But New York can lay claim to this cultural ascendency merely as a result of the fact that DuBois was born in Massachusetts. James Welden Johnson in Florida, Walter White in Georgia, James F. Johnson in Florida, S. Johnson and Eugene Kinckle Jones in Virginia. Jesse Faucet in Pennsylvania. Randolph in Florida. James Faucet in Georgia. If Harlem should be stripped of her literary contrabands, she would scarcely excel her own rival in cultural attainment. Passive In N. Y. Active In Chicago The political accomplishments of the two groups can hardly be discussed in the same breath nor on the same day. The only outstanding difference is that the New York are seen in the case of Hon. Charles W. Anderson, Collector of Internal Revenue, a federal assignment. He is the Negro to influence and title in the state and Ferdinand Q. Morton, Civil Service Commissioner, a Tammany appointee. In other hand, Chicago boasts of state and city officials of high rank and function who owe their position directly to Negro votes and influence. The list is that of the officials function in the highest and most vital features of the city and statal government. In New York, the Negro is a passive political factor. The Chicago he is an active political factor. He sponsored the present city government, and as much as any other element, was responsible for the creation of hostile race spirit sought to be injected in the municipal campaign, the victorious government, is, is not unmindful of the just claims on its black allies and rewards them with the right to manhandl. Similar results in New York are hardly thinkable. Take Full Political Advantage In Chicago The Negroes in Chicago take full political advantage of their segregationist political units where command constitutes the dominant ement. In Harlem, the Negro plays second or third fiddle to the local white community, and the game seriously for the full state in view. They have learned how to take defeat philosophically. They have learned how to defeat Negroes. Negro wins. In New York if the Negro loses, the white man wins, which is practically all of the time.

The stage is already set. Congressman Madden has stood so firmly for the rights of the poor, the base in his attitude to supplant them on the ground of color. He has also gained much preeminence in national affairs that he can be of greater importance in some ways than an opponent of the blight on the ground. But when he retires, the race will again be represented in Congress by one of its own blood who will speak with power and authority of the poor. He will represent, not merely South side Chicago, but the entire Negro race. Although New York has the numbers, it has neither the leadership nor would justify a like prediction within any calculable time. Chicago Ahead Economically Economically. Chicago is as far ahead as it is politically. The Windy city boasts of two of the strongest Negro banks in the country; New York is now trying hard to organize such a financial establishment. Chicago boasts of the finest Negro hotels in the world. At least two of these hostelries operate on a basis of something like a million dollars. The Negro stranger who reaches New York after midnight will be lucky to find where to lay his weary head, if perchance the Y. M. C. A. happens to be full. I doubt whether there is any other group of fifty thousand Negroes in the United States who are as backward in business as the two hundred thousand Harlemites. There is not a single social institution of any importance, outside of the churches, and the Young Men's Christian Association and the Young Women's Christian Association established and overseered by white folks. Harlem has recently developed a number of great churches; but not all of them have her one better. I have never heard of a Negro building a residence in Harlem, but many of the dwelling places are handed down to them through inheritances, a deeply held belief they build a church. They are abandoned houses of worship by their white founders. Chicago has her church beneath the skies. Negroes Of Harlem Cliff Dwellers The Negroes in Harlem are for the most part cliff dwellers. Home ownership relatively small as compared to Chicago. One walks for a straight mile along Grand Boulevard in Chicago and wonders what stores and what buildings are these owned and occupied by their Negro indwellers. If Harlem is the "Nigger Heaven", Chicago certainly inhabits the thoroughfares which more nearly approach the streets of the New Jerusalem. To cap the climax, Chicago over matches Harlem as the seat of ecclesiastical power. Dr. L. K. Williams, the executive head of three million Baptist, has his cathedral here. I suppose that Bishop Carey, if he decides to cling to both spiritual and temporal power, will rank first among his equals in ecclesiastical council of the great African Methodist Episcopal Church. And thus I might go on forming an indefinite list of particulars, in which Harlem would come out second best. Wherein lies the secret of the strength of this lusty Samson of the West? Must the effecate East forever lay behind? Let our Negro social thinkers ponder over the tale of those two cities.

It is generally known that the producing of first-class motion pictures requires a large amount of capital. It is also important to provide called to an announcement that S. H. Dudley, Sr. of Washington had given to the press an outline for the motion pictures he produced colored motion pictures. It is intended to capitalize this corporation at one million dollars. Dudley much sought to see S. Dudley launch such an enterprise as it would open a new field for all persons in the race; writers, actors, directors, operators and numerous co-producers are necessary in the production of pictures. With the proper handling of a corporation this caliber, the company devise in a rival to Mary Pickford, Doulssar Falkbars, Chas, Chaplin, or Rudolph Valenka, define plans for launching his campaign, let us all as a race put our shoulders to the wheel and help Mr. Murray roll-up his million dollar corporation. Robert Murray is busy in Boston at the studio tryin to arrange to take over the production and I hope that our people will rally to this great undertaking when offered an opportunity. Let us all start boosting colored pictures. FIVE RACE PLAYS IN 140 BROADWAY FLOPS FIVE RACE PLAYS IN 140 BROADWAY FLOPS "Deep River" and "Black Boy" are among the 140 Broadway failures of the season.

One of the new features is singing by the audience nightly from words flashed on the computer screen. A leader is employed to direct the singing. The headline photoplay for next week is "The Fire Brigade" starting with the story of the firemen—one of the most stupendous film stories of the year. It is considered Charles Ray's greatest triumph. The story deals with the firemen—three public servants who daily risk their lives to save those of others. Along with the lurid scenes of hungry flames of fire, the requirement lines, there is the story of a girl and a love that is made ardent by heroism. "The Fire Brigade" will be shown days, beginning Monday, June 13. "Getting Gertie's Garter," a screen adaptation of the stage success, is booked for the near future. Marie Prostet has the title role.

An Irish-Jewish specialty, the *Tenements*, features the feature of these two widely separated races provide the humor of the story. The scenes are laid in New York's East Side. For one woman, the movie highlights heart interest in photography. "Rose of the Tenements" is a pleasing selection. The Lafayette management has booked the "Scarlet Letter," with William Gish, for three days, beginning June 13, 2014, in pictures of Puritan rule and prejudices in New England some 250 years ago. It is taken from the novel by Nathaniel Hawthorne. A girl is in love with the village minister, whom she and them closely bound as man and wife and an illegitimate child is born. The storm religious neighbors demand to know the father but the girl refuses to see him, so the minister attempts to tell of his sin, but the girl refuses to allow it. Instead, she willingly bears the disgraceful letter "A upon her breast and allows her daughter to grow a brother." A former marriage also comes on the scene to make her burdens heavier. Ed. Daley's "Rarin To Go" is certainly intended and comes near to being what critics call a "perfect" album, who visits at the Royal this week will find that the novel bits, draperies, properties, chorus ensemble work and the ingenuity of the musicians, incipiently two hours of pleasure entertainment. The show is a big production and succeeds nicely at the poor primes. Alberta. Pierre. prima domina, and Jimmy Gillippe, leading man. Jimmy's greatest contributions to the show are of excellent dance and guitar. Alberta. Pierre. Prymes' contribution is mainly looks.

Nona Marshall and Billy Young, formerly of "Smart Set" Mintrels and other successes, have the goods in their act of jazz duets, solos, comedy and dances. Both of the teams have a little bit of a feisty side, jokes, and there are tough patrons to give them apclause for them. Newman and Rogers, juvenile dance, present a pleasing routine of tanzs, military and eccentric dances. Willie Thirl wartime ballet included the Monday matinee for his dance work. The accomplished "Honey" Brown is among the principals but is not given much credit. Willie exponent of a chorus lead and one specially Pierrot number with Gillespie. "Honey", is in the background. The highlights of "Barin" Go To Gaines' delight feature. "Countine The Hours", with a human pendulum on the clock; a court room travesty and a boxing bout between Harry Lucas and "Shorty" Brodius, midets. Any fighters are big laugh provokers. The chorus is composed of 16 rowenskin girls, with the much talked of Dorothy "Bula" Brown, taking most of the charge managed by Louis Azorzyk, white, veteran manager of colored shows. "Our Gang" Reveal is at the Star this week with the old timer. Lou Vernon, in blackface bits. The "Gang" is one of the best constructed shows that has come through the house.

Chappelle, who with his wife, Anita Suntani, filled a week's engagement to the Royal Theatre, was alleged to have refused to pay off a number of his actors and chorus girls, who became incensed and attempted to harm the young producer limb from him. His escape into the police station was all that saved him, and the bodily harm when informed that their only relief would be as a civil court and the matter was set at the police to handle, the authorities left the courtroom to be satisfied and wayward as Chappelle as he was leaving the mansion again. The disturbance with resulted ended in the principals being arrested on a charge of disorderly conduct for which Chappelle was fined $10 and costs. Tried To Skip Town Chappelle, according to testimony he said $200 by the theater management at the close of the engagement Sunday after a midnight show he had prior to this time sent his personal trunks to New York City and is alleged to have left the theatre without paying off any of his company. Following his disappearance, the members, the sons, the sensed foul play and forcibly prevented his life from leaving the town upon him. The error is to have called from Union Station and when informed that his wife were being held a prisoner, he returned. By a clever manipulation he pushed her into a taxi-cab and started on his dash to the station.

The trail then continued through winding streets and dark alleys throughout the night; other cabs running in the chase just for the lark.

'LUCKY SAMBO' AT THE ROYAL NEXT WEEK 'LUCKY SAMBO' AT THE ROYAL NEXT WEEK For one week beginning Monday, June 13th the Royal Theatre under its new management takes great pleasure in presenting to the theatres goers of Baltimore and Columbia its greatest shows. This time it is the show that has smashed every record held by colored burlesque in the world by playing over 200 consecutive performances on Broadway last summer. It is Hurting and Seems to Laugh, a show from the Columbia State to the Royal Theatre. According to New York Critics, about the most blase on earth, pronounced "Lucky Sambo" the fastest dancing show on the road today, which is indeed high praise. Lovers of fine dancing go wild over the art demonstrated in "Lucky Sambo." Billy Higgins, who is ably assisted by Joe Byrd will keep the audience in an uproar with their comedy antics, while Julia Moody assisted her jazz band, a barren, Ernst Whitman also has a pleasing baritone voice and is a marvelous whistler. Others in the cast are as follows Hilda Perleno, Berleana Blanks, Amanda Randolph, Al. Fwatts, Lolita Hall, Cora George Phillips and an amazing dancer to great acclaim but not the beat the big and famous Black Diamond Speed Chorus, which will please even the most exacting audience. Summing up the show "Lucky Sambo" as a whole it is believed to be the best that has thus far been the Royal. In conjunction with the show been selected photoplasts will also be shown The Aladdin Theatre, a 500-seat nine-picture and tabloid house on West Baltimore street, changed man- agement. Saturday. The house will be operated by Vincent Provenza: white, and will continue its policy of vaudeville and pictures, catering to colored trade. Aladdin Theatre Gets Half Doze More Than In Pa HAMPTON, VA.—Half more for their people in beauty of their poems the half century by denunciation. This is the view of I.

This is the view of Robert T. Kerlin, white, former professor of English in the University of Virginia writing in the current issue of the Southern Workman. Not that the editors were not justified," said Mr. Kerlin, "a thousand poems justified. I am only comparing methods. "The Negro is, today, singing himself into the respect of the world; not with the precious old slave spirituals, exciting compassion, but with new songs which win admiration and disarm prejudice. "The best American magazines and the best book publishers are today accepting the poems, and stories of young Negro writers solely upon their merits. "Have you just finished reading the poems submitted to 'Opportunity' in the 'Hushlin' and 'Holstein' contest. If the eighty competitive poems were published as an anthology of contemporary Negro poetry the volume would evoke general praise and expressions of accomplishment at so much talent. "Acquainted as I am with Negro literature I was not prepared for this abundance of excellence." Mr. Kerlin refers to the present period in literature as the Negro Renaissance. Braithwaite's "Anthology of Magazine Verse" an event major in the magazine industry for the early annuals of cach year, an important biographical and unpublished volume, Mr. Kerlin says, contains in the 1926 issue 23 poems by I. Nigro poems. "In view of such recognition who can doubt that the Negro has arrived. Former volumes of this series have contained poems by Negroes, but never to anything like this extent. Here, unsorgregated, the Negro poet appears on his merit by the side of the white poet, competitor with him for the same honors. The fact is immensely significant. It is hostile to lynching and to imminent. "The American Negro is plainly in the vestibule of the Hall of Fame. At least there. Note these names in Braithwaite's 'Anthology': Gwendolen B. Bennet, Arna Bontemps, Countee Cullen, Waring Suney, Frank S. Horne, Langston Hughes, Helen Johnson, Thurman Wallace and Lucy Ariel Williams; they are all in their twenties. "Two out of the entire eleven I omitted from this list of youthfuls. They are Joseph Cotter and Georgia Douglas Johnson. They will pardon me. If I were thinking only of their poete vigor I should class them still as young. Not alone are holdings and bank accounts nor by banks and in other companies, though good; not alone by illuminating editorials and protesting memorials—though necessary; not alone by speeches and sermons, but by poems may freedom be achieved—freedom, and that respect for self and race which every living soul accounts the chief boon of life."

Kerlin, white, formerly of University of Virginia writing in the curse of Workman. His readers were not justified," said Mr. Kerlin, justified. I am only comparing method to today, singing himself into the reverence the precious old slave spirituals, exclaiming songs which win admiration and disarm pirates. American magazines and the best book plunging the poems, and stories of young Negroes have finished reading the poems submitted to Brushkin' and Holstein' contest. If the eight here published as an anthology of contempo-ume would evoke general praise and express so much talent. And as I am with Negro literature I was a disciple of excellence." The present period in literature, for importance in the literary annals of cedar and unrivaled volume, Mr. Kerlin says, copees by 11 Negro poets.

C. — Rhode Land, where women workers receive an average wage of $16.85 per week, pays domestics the highest salary of any state in the union, according to figures given out by the Women's Bureau of the Department of Labor, following average wages are paid: New Jersey, $14.95; Ohio, $13.80; Oklahoma, $13; Georgia, $11.95; Missouri, $12.95; Kansas, $11.95; Arkansas, $11.60; Tennessee, $11.10; Delaware, $10.50; Kentucky, $10.75; South Carolina, $9.50; Alabama, $8.80 and Mississippi, Esippi, $0.00 D. C. Wages Low In Washington the weekly salaries paid women workers range from $1 to $15. It is also pointed out, however, that some cooks get as high as $20, but these are exceptions to the case. Investigation of fifteen employment agencies in Baltimore show that the weekly wage ranges from $8 to $15 and that the working hours in both Baltimore and Washington range from 10 to 12 hours a day, including Sundays. The bureau figures that as many wives as husbands contribute all their earnings to the family budget, that about 33-1.3 per cent of their earnings pay envelopes to their parents, whereas 60 per cent of the unmarried daughters assume extensive home responsibilities. Only one-third of the working women in 18 states have a 48 hour week. More than one-fifth work 54 hours per week and a considerable number works 60 and 70 hours, particularly in Georgia and Mississippi.

E. PREACHERS FIND CONTRACT LABOR BAD AT CHELTENHAM Ministers Also Surprised To Find "Tots" Under Eight Years PHYSICAL CONDITION DESCRIBED AS GOOD Lack Of Educational Facilities Will Be Pointed Out In Report Good physical condition, but bad contract labor system, presence of little 'tots' under eight and practically nothing being done to train the inmates for useful lives, was the reaction of several ministers in a group which visited the House of Reformation at Cheltenham Monday. The delegation of ministers, headed by the Rev. R. A. Green, will submit a detailed report of their visit to the regular session of the preachers meeting next Monday. Convict Labor One of the worst features of the system, declared the Rev. Mr. Green, is the contract labor wherein the boys are farmed out to work for the teachers when they get no training as should be given in an institution of this kind. But the most surprising thing we met was the presence of more "tots" under eight who had not been also stated that while they found the physical conditions excellent, the educational system was practically nihil. "I cannot see," he said, "how any one could expect the institution there in so far as it is designed to train them for usefulness." Lacks Funds The Rev. W. A. Manokoo stated that while he did not care to give out any detailed statement before the committee set forth its findings he thought the institution needed better administration. Those there at present are courteous and seemingly conscientious, but they lack funds with which to provide proper training for the boys. The whole delegation got a favorable impression, the care of the child he had said, but they found little being done for the boys in the way of training. Many Away At Work the Rev. G. H. Stepleau said: "Upon coming to the institution I found that many of the older boys were at age 11 and I could not learn some things in detail. "The favorable thing that I noticed was that the beds were clean and well made up and the dormitories in a tidy state. "The superintendent was courteous and expressed a desire that more visitors should come down to see the children. We were 90, that criticism could be made from personal knowledge. "My adverse criticism would be that there are small boys there around the ages of seven, ten and twelve. Several said they were there they were regarded as bad and there was no other place to send them. "Many of them do not know how long they are to stay there. Some will be kept until they are 21. "Some of the larger boys who are hired out earn money for their education. One boy told me that he earned $11 last week. He was about 10 years old. "Considered as a whole, the criticism that I have is of small matters." Recommendations The committee will make definite recommendations, said the Rev. Mr. Green, and will make some further investigation as to the presence of the very young, boys they found at the institution. Balto.

Flowers Is Best Sportsman In Squared Circle Today BY FRANK G. MENKE. In (Philly Record) Several years ago a rather unknown fight manager land poked a few words northward concerning a Soo and termed him "The whitest black man that ever dred." The manager was Walk Miller, the sporting world edged through three long-ago sentiments expressed by Miller, who flowers: "The whitest black man in the game." For several years Flowers has been a headliner, sweep of time he has climbed to the headliner and dizzy of arrogance in his success. Two vicwits of most astonishing decisions in modern run of them costing him a world championship. But not a complaint has come from him. The man has placed upon his has he deigned decisionable fight; never was the pion point at him. In victory or defeat he has; a modest, unassuming, God-learning deacon in his leisure hours of profession. He has been a college audience among the many that him came only a few weeks ago from a Georgian, we discussing fights and fighters with some fellow-Southmen. I can feel a glow of pride in how has he done and best lover, the most per and the finest sportsman in the game. As a South the years of prejudice behind me as it concerns a Negro proud of him—proud that I am of the South where so a fighter as I am flowers has established a record, or rather a series of out parallels in ring history. years ago a rather unknown fight manager, a few words northward concerning a Soilman "The whitest black man that ever dried," was Walk Miller, the fighter was a year the years since he was a rugged agger. He was expressed by Miller, who whitest black man in the game." Real years Flowers has been a headliner; he has climbed to the heights, but not neglected by his position or his success. Twice the most atrocous decisions in modern football, his championship. But no plant has come from him. And no smudge ever has been placed upon him in a questionable fight, never was the most unassuming, unassuming, God-learning man, who is lesure hours, but a bighter by profession, the rarest tribute among the many that in only a few weeks ago from a Georgian, wights and fighters, I thought I would be a record whatever I think I did into the gamest and best lover, the most fastest sportsman in the game. As a South prejudice behind me as it concerns a Negro—proud that I am of the South where so has established a record, or rather a series in rhistory. Several years ago a rather unknown fight manager in the Southland poked a few words northward concerning a Southern battler and termed him "The whitest black man that ever drew on a glove." The manager was Walk Miller; the fighter was Tiger Force. And through the years since then he has come to echo the long-ago mission passed by Miller, when he said of Flowers has established a record, or rather a series of them, without parallel in ring history. ALWAYS DREW RECORD CROWDS On one arena where he appeared seven different times he created seven successive records in the matter of gate. In 18 different places he drew record-smashing crowds. And since he came out of the Southland several years ago, to fight his way into Northern recognition, he ever headlined a loser, so far as the prowler was concerned. Through 1924, Flowers fought with such spectacular success that he was given a crack at Jack Delaney, with the idea that the winner was to get a battle at the light heavyweight champion of the world. And Delaney won, unquestioned, into his own arena, and misunderraised, went out into the "stacks," under the guidance of Müller, and proceeded to build anew. He met all corners—and knocked 11 of them into a conna. His great "comeback" forced a demand for another Delaney match, he got it—and again Delaney flattened him. Flowers, without a whimper, went out to redeem himself. And he succeeded in royal fashion. So sensational was his work against all men that there was agitation for a match between Flowers and Harry Greb, then middleweight champion of the world. They met—and Flowers won, 160–160 crown. Greb asked for a return match. And Flowers, unlike most champions, didn't stall. He gave Greb the chance to regain his title. But Greb was unequal to the opportunity and Flowers retained possession of his kingship. LOST DECISION TO WALKER Three months later—on December 3, 1925—Flowers fought Mickey Walker in Chicago, and for a second day, the referee awarded the win to Wall. The result precipitated one day the worst Chicago's rather scandalous ring history. Every sport writer declared Flowers had won "by a mile" when conceded Walker more than one of the 10 rounds. The mob within the arena, summed at first by the decision, broke into aullen row. One false move and a not-might have resulted. It, fought back his own terrific disappointment, over the decision crossed the arena, smiled as Walker, congratulated him and, still Behind the doors of his dressing room he broke into tears. The loss of his crown, through so weird a decision, was a crushing blow. But he never let the crowd know for the rest that any show anger, or resentment, would be the result. The wrong, would be the right. Off the fire, the firewolves. spiritual. From that day to this, Flowers never has entered a word of condemnation on her. She was not interested in investigating the affair, gave it as its opinion that Flowers won clearly and decisively—and added: "I will refute a referee's decision. If it were, the title would go back to Flowers." ANOTHER BAD DECISION Once in New York Flowers. The ringers insist he lost but o consternation of the crowd, were danger of a riot. And once again showing a grievous loss sport, a siege when old man would the ring, and set the mob into a Tiger Flowers unit regarded g the ring records credit him with during his career but a legitimate min to go into the light heavy and in his last 40 fights Flowers' r irage of 20 pounds each.

Jack Johnson and others, by their dissipations, brought certain created something of prejudice. If that he knew the trainer, had told that a colored gladiator sense of the word. New York Flowers almost annihilated Marianne Mrs insist he lost one round. Yet the deo of the crowd, went to McGregor. Again riot. And once again Flowers saved the various losing spots by burying the wounded other men would have exploded with wits set the mob into a mad frenzy. Flowers not regarded generally as much of words credit him with more than one feature of it all but a legitimate middleweight, has almost the light heavy and the heavyweight class. 40 stft Flowers' rivals has outweighed the bounds each. He has taken on them. He never hides his signed to fight for a promoter—and the foeman. And when the battle smoke light, whether he was winner or loser, Flower's sportman and still possessed of his title,enson and others, by their loose living, reckons, brought certain discredit upon the thing of prey. But Flower's headliner, has almost obliterated that a colored gladiator can a sportsman's word. Once in New York Flowers almost summinated Mike McTigue. The ringstones insist he lost but one round. Yet the decision, to the consternation of the crowd, went. Flowers saved the situation of danger at the end of an avalanche. Flowers saved the situation by a smile when other men would have exploded with wrath there in the ring, and set the mob into a mad frenzy. Tiger Flowers saved him with more than 30 knockout triumphs during his career. And the remarkable feature of all it is that Flowers, nothing but a legitimate middleweight, has almost always had to go into the ring. He has won 30 of his 50 flowers Flowers has outwhelmed him on an average of 20 pounds each. He has taken on men who out-bulked him 40 to 50 pounds—and knocked them out. He never has chosen his opponents. He has signed to fight in the ring, but when the battle smoke cleared from his every fight, whether he was winner or loser, Flowers always emerged as a sportsman and still possessed of his title, "the whitest black man in the ring." Others, by their loose living, reckless way and their dissipations, brought certain discredit upon the black race—created something of prejudice. But Tiger Flowers, in the tour years that he has been a headliner, has almost obliterated that prejudice and proved a colored gladiator can be a sportsman in the truest word.

The fast, traveling Bacharach Giants. The fact that the Baltimore team was not taken seriously by the dopers and coupled with the somewhat unfortunate situation of the Sox, Ben Taylor's outfit is now being hailed as the wonder team of the season. The list of men that started the 1926 season on the Sox roster, Taylor has clipped a quartet of star players and with "Heavy" Johnson, Julius Roe, "Eggie" Johnson, and "The works," the general opinion on the outside was that the present edition of the Baltimore team would be robbed of its strength, especially the attack. However, Taylor's argument was that the team was in need of a crew shark, and team work was making a mediocre out of a galaxy of star ball players. The aging Hoosier had the right dope on the matter and the right equipment and elements of the Baltimore team, and is attested by the brand of ball the Sox are playing and the morale and team spirit of the team. In Pearl Johnson, Sergey Brown and Pete Washington, Taylor has practically replaced the team's players, and that those youngsters are delivering the goods is putting it mildly. Then too, the Black Sox pitchers, virtually the same team as Hoosier's tribe, have come ADJUDED BY OPPORTUNITY AS THE BEST COLORED WEEKLY, 1925-28 GUE L on Three STATES K. D.

The one club that has caused the biggest upset in the circuit is the inability of Colonel Strothers's Harrisburg Giants to get going. In fact the boys from the Pennsylvania capitals had to play from the direction. Rated and acknowledged to have the most powerful club on the attack in the league, the Harrisburg clark has shown that he can play off the field and slump from the lead to a position near the bottom. Just what is taking the power from the hats of the Charlesston-Beckwitt combine is a matter that worries around capital hill.

"If we win the fans won't come out, and if we lose they are sure to stay. We have a manager Taylor after gagging over the stands Sunday. Last season the Sox had a poor club and it was razz, razz from the fans all the time. This year the local league has to doubt the best aggregation in the Eastern League.

They dropped two contests to the Sox and went deeper toward the bottom. Cubans Pompey' Cubans failed to get in position over the week end. in third action, they played Monday at Atlantic City, and the first game of their three-game series.

ENGLAND, GERMANY AND INDIA ARE LEADERS "Y" Secretary WASHINGTON, D. C.—Sherwood Eddy, secretary for Asia of the Young Men's Christian Association, commended the religion of Jesus Christ to the graduating students of Howard University as the great moral force that will conquer the world in delivering the baccalaureate sermon to them Sunday afternoon. He described the world into which the students were about to enter as "a sorry world, a world of strife; strife between classes in industry, rich and poor; labor and labor; employed; strife between races; strife between nations breaking out periodically into overt war. It is a world of strife and war based upon this philosophy of might makes right. It is a work of perialism the strong have to exploit and profit out of the weak." America Divided He related the conquests of the imperialism of Holland, Belgium and Great Britain. But the economic and financial imperialism of America, he declared, is the most dreaded in the world to day. The United States, he said, has transgressed in many ways. Race Prejudice "I blush to say," he stated, "that as I have traveled over the world for the last 30 years, as my work has taken me through India, China, Asia, through Russia, Europe and other countries. I find the people of this country suffering more from the disease — yes, it seems no less than a disease — from the disease or worse than any other people on earth. None In Europe Race prejudice, he said, is not found among the people of Russia, or the Slavic people. It is not found in France, South America, and China. The chief people suffering from this disease, he declared, are first, the white race of America; second, the people of Britain; third the people of Germany, and fourth the high caste people of India. Four Attitudes Mr. Eddy asked of the graduating students what attitude are they going to take toward life. He said that there was one of four attitudes which they might take. The first he stated, is the attitude of complacency, acceptance of the situation he said, is the attitude of cynicism and of despair with the death of all ideals. Third the attitude of revolution and destruction, meeting force with force blow for blow, reprisal for reprisal atrocity for atrocity, war for war None of these attitudes, he declared will reform the world. The fourth he offered was the at- Call Vernon 6016 titude of constructive criticism, of constructive, creative faith, that the world is bad but can be made better, that evil can be overcome with good, and that good shall win in the end. Leadership He pointed out the great price of leadership. "The leader," he said, "must know the road. He must keep ahead. He must get others to follow and he must pay the price of leadership. You will be misrepresented. Others will be jealous of you. But he that would be great among you must be servant of all. How many of you are going out in that spirit? How many of you are going out to find this hidden power in life?" The Program Mr. Eddy was introduced by President Mordecai W. Johnson. Invocation was offered by the Rev. H. B. Taylor, pastor of the Fifthteen Street Presbyterian Church. The university chair rendered an anthem, "Gallia (Gouned). Scripture was read by the Rev. W. Nelson of the Bard University school of religion. Following the sermon the chair sang a spiritual, "Were You There? (Burleigh). Benediction was pronounced by the Rev. E. B. Watson, pastor of the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church. Gym Crowded. The services were held in the gymnasium, which was taxed to its capacity.

Hoskins scored an artistic triumph in the presentation of his dance recital and art exhibition at New York's Art Friday evening. Two scores of pupils appeared in ensemble and solo dances ranging from an esthetic interpretation of "To A Wild Rose" to a thoroughly modern version of the blackbottom. Miss Constantia Wharton was guest artist and James Young played "Kiss Me Again" as a violin solo. The program began with a series of Greek status posees. Theoses were Miss Mrs. Dorothy Posees, Margaret and Laura Fields. Rona Simms, Audrey Hill and Mary Joakins. "A Naughty Girl's Dream," a fantasy portraying the associates who come to a little maid while she sleeps, was heartily applauded when Mastasized an rhythmic boxing bout. Olive Caulk took the part of the naughty girl. The others in the scene were Marie Hillen, Evelyn Nixon, Cecil Johnson and Calvin Pace. Expressions of varied moods were expressed in the groups: "Giving," by Audrey Hill, Laura and Margaret Fields; "Hapiness," by Margaret Demand and Pauline Caulk; and "Music" Interpretations, by Dorothy Chapman. The little boy in the reigning Fields won the house in their "Setting Rhythms For Beginners." "Espagnola," by Dorothy Chapman. Rena Simms, Laura and Margaret Fields, Audrey Hill and Justine Jarvis, added the touch of old Seville and Barcelona to the offer of the dance was led by Miss Chapman. Possibly the most cleverly and brilliantly executed number on the program was "Le Cuvée." (The Swan) by Miss Constantia Wharton. Miss Wharton interpreted the dance with an ease and grace that was only enhanced by the accompaniment of the subject mood. She also added youthful enthusiasm to her work. "Hello Bluebird," a chorus number resembling an excerpt from a musical comedy, was danced by the advanced class. It remained for the blackbottom to "almost stop the show." When the chorus group announced what they designed costumes they were forced to give an encore before being allowed to leave the stage by the cheering patrons. The recital was largely attended, the hall being filled with a crowd estimated at nearly 400. Mrs. Julia Calloway and Mrs. Marie White accompanied the dancers on the stage. James White played the violin obligates. An exhibition of needlework, artificial flowers, lamps, shades and other art works were on display. All costumes were designed by the costume department of Baltimore Melody Boys played for the patrons' dance following the recital.

Sufferers who seem to be struggling in vain against asthma or severe bronchial coughs, will be interested in knowing how Mrs. Blanche Young, Route. 5. Sheridan, Ind. found lasting relief. She writes: "I had asthma for 15 years, and each year I would often sit up until two o'clock in the morning—my breathing was so bad I couldn't lie down.

Guards Save White Slayer ARREST 30 MEMBERS OF LYNCHING MOB "Will Cope With Lawless Element," Says Colonel S. L. Lowry TAMPA, FLA.—National Guardsmen answered a mob with machine gun fire and as a result four would-be lynchers are dead and a score wounded following three nights of rioting when several hundred men attempted to lynch B. F. Levin, white, and confessed slayer of five, Tuesday night. The action of the guards followed three nights of rioting and reign of terror when several hundred men attempted to storm the camp jail where Levin was incarcerated. When deputy sheriffs who had stayed on the lynching Sunday and Monday night saw the increasing danger, the National Guards, under Col S. L. Lowy, were called out and the approaches to the jail manned by unidentified and determined, the mob gathered Tuesday night, and when they fired at the guards and attempted to rush the jail, they were answered by the machine guns which are said to have scattered them. Lowy had murder in their minds and the situation may very well indeed become serious if mobs are not suppressed once for all. Besides the guardsmen. 1000 deputy sheriffs were sworn in Tuesday as a full crowd were ordered dispersed. Levin, the white man upon whom the mob sought to take summary vengeance, had killed a family of five whom he mistook for members of another family against whom he had a grudge.

After talking for more than an hour, he is an authority, as well as of his travels in Africa, China, and elsewhere, I asked him what he thought of American race problem. Spokinny asked him of America oppose others because of their complexions, he said: "It is difficult to believe that human beings keep up a tradition of stupidity that might again cost America very dearly. As for me, just as I want flowers around me, so I want the different species of mankind." SINGLE TRIP THROUGH SOUTH He told me of the single trip he had ever made to the South, and how shortened it in disgust at the poor conditions, well to the upholding of lynching by some of the leading people. The average Southern attitude toward the Near East was pure hypocrisy, and did that those who were affected by their altered superstition, in his experience, were those who believed it least. Why. Why he said: "If they were colored men, then for attacking colored women there wouldn't be any robe to go around." Presently he asked: "Why don't you write a book exposing these WRITING A BOOK I replied that a book dealing with the race question as it actually was, seeing the light of day unless the author published it, and attended to all the other details himself. I said that even the few white fraternities wanted the truth, wanted the truth wanted as little of it as possible. I said also, that what the publishers wanted were stories of the salacious and vicious side of Neo-Nazism thoroughly explored in the last three centuries, that any writer, even though partially acquainted with the subject, would turn for sheer relief.

PEAFSON'S MONTHLY When Mr. Frank Harris edited Persons Monthly in America, he used to speak out frankly on the question. He further had as his modulation manager, a Negro, the present editor of the Amsterdam New Yorker, William M. Kelley.

But this side. I said the white public did not want to hear about the books he felt. "But what is the matter with your own publishing firms? Surely they are not afraid to put out books telling the truth?" **WHY BOOKS ARE SCARCE** I replied that such publishing firms as we know either in religious literature, or were aided by white people who would withdraw their aid. "The fact is," I said, "that today the people most interested in Negro literature are white people. The masses of the Negro, by which I mean about 95 per cent, don't care about the books the group. Half-rising from his couch he asked emphatically: 'Not interested in literature? Then how do they ever hope to get anywhere? The literature of a people is almost the group. A people without a literature is almost like a man without a memory." Mr. Harris, by the way, was appraised by the American Bookman as the greatest short story writer living. PREJUDICE LIKE FALSE TEETH We then went on to speak about India, and he mentioned the fact of there being color prejudice against Color prejudice, he said, was the rock on which Anglo-Saxon civilization was going to be wrecked. "Why, he said, 'a civilization founded on such tessera—no d. d. good to anybody.' After he had amused me for more than a half hour with some of the wristiest stories I had ever heard.

Such a question would be rather taxing on the Baltimore Sun and the Baltimore Sun the daily newsstories of the year 1852 gives us an intimate history of what activities Baltimore were engaged in at the time. For instance the classified ad column of the issue of May the 13th, 1852, announces that — the ladies of Baltimore commence their fair on Wednesday in the hall of the Franklin street engine house at 14th street and Penny Lane, where hundreds of refreshments will be sold.

This was the last straw! All day Macie had seen and worked setting ready for her own best way to come to dinner, but here as for in the afternoon to find the porch must be cleaned again! Hastily she set about her work. She must get through in time to take a bath, rest a little and dress herself and the children before the men came from the office. As the last touch was given to the porch she saw Lydia Benson driving down the street. Lydia's new car gleamed in the afternoon sun and Lydia's becoming costume brought Maggie a twinkle of envy. Lydia stopped the car on the drive between the two houses and called to her girlfriend, "O, Macie, I hear Mr. Denning is in town and will take dinner with you. Let me keep the children in the nursery for you." "I wish you would. They have worked, "Charles has cried a lot and Lucy has been under my feet or in mischief on my day. I could not get on anywhere." With the children off her mind, things went a little better for Maggie, but he prepare and serve the meal and be a gracious hostess at the same time. She welcomed the moment when Tom announced they must be taken to the train Mr. Denning was to take. Wearily Maggie climbed the stairs to see how Lydia was getting along with the train. The ones a sleep, and. Lydia sitting at the window. "Aren't you worn out?" Maggie asks. The children tried themselves. "I am tired." Lydia agreed. "but not because of the children . . . am tired every night, but tonight, I am tired about being tired that I usually do not feel. I have been wondering why and have decided that I have worked with children there is great satisfaction in fitting up a house with suitable furniture and draperies that harmonize but when the job is done, it is turned over to another house. I never stay with the lovely things I have created. Really I do not care to stay. But children, Maggie, what a difference with children. One has to work with children, a unending job, and because it is unending, one can enjoy continual development. During the last four years while I was working with children, I have lovely jobs were working to make Lucy and Charles lovely, and even though they have naughty days and try your patience and your strength. In the years to come than in all my houses. I envy you, Maggie." Maggie recalled with a throb of happiness, "I love my husband and tiny son 'Yes,' she nodded. "I believe every tired feeling I have hope I hope I shall put forrest any more." *onlyone if she can be captured and logged in* *must marry* That at this early date there was considerable friction over the race to establish an article concerning the Maryland Legislature which was then in session in Annapolis, before the Maryland legislature which provides that all free Negroes and mulattoes who shall be born in the state after the first day of January 1815, will travel at 21 years, be compelled to emigrate to Liberia in Africa and if they remain in the state for more than 21 years, in the hands of the Maryland Colonization Society" shall be ordered to be sold as slaves for a term of time, and the proceeds therefrom will be applied to the colonization fund of the city of Baltimore.

It is probably because they are not correctly when they were girls and boys. Although every able-bodied person who is walking may be young you are young your feet may not trouble you, even if you walk incorrectly, but you are storing up trouble. Even in college the effects of bad walking habits begin to appear. Fallen arches sometimes hinder even the symptoms become more acute.

"Step on the outside border of the (fat) foot of the weight is on the instead of being comforted by the bail of the foot," Mr. Kratz said.

I will name some of the varieties—ALTHEAS, or Rose of Sharon, have pink and white blossoms and bloom in August. They grow from six to eight feet tall. Trimming should be done in October. Do not fail to have Hydrangea, with its great heads of white bloom changing to dull pink and having quite six weeks to mature. Hydrangea should be the first of August. We know the Lilac, purple and white. Lilac bushes grow rapidly, frequently eight feet in six years. The require a well-drained soil. Cut the blossoms before and after they go to seed. Another beautiful shrub is the Butterfly Bush, or summer Lilac as it grows. You will need to cut the blossoms before and after they go to seed. One Butterfly Bush in my yard last summer kept me supplied with cut flowers the entire summer. The bush was such a wealth of blossoms that the flowers were missed. Magnolia, with large white and pink blossoms, blooms about the middle Orange is another fine shrub. The flowers are pure white and very fragrant. This shrub blooms high; it is perfectly hardy and in every way satisfactory. It should be trimmed as soon as it has finished blooming. Cut back the growth. It will then send out side shoots and become continually thicker. Spiraea Var. Houttei is a mass of blooms about the end of May. It is covered with clusters of white flowers on long, pendulous branches. Trim as soon as it has finished blooming off about half of the new growth.

Table ware is made of potters' clay and flint rock baked together. The clay is first separated from impurities by thoroughly blended underwater filled, after which it undergoes a long ageing process, to make it plastic and workable. It is then molded into dishes. These are placed in a kiln, and baked into permanent material, and thoroughly blended. Each article is then dipped into a milk-white glaze and paced in the gloss oven and exposed to a second heating at nearly 3,000 degrees. The heating covers the glaze into a thin coating of glass that is decorated with pieces covered by glaze, reappear and remain permanent. Puzzling Block About Walking AMOS HOKUM Page Seventeen A Plucky Boy The boy marched straight up to the counter. "Well, my little man," said the merger, "what can I do for you?" "If you please," said the boy, "I came in to see if you wouldn't let me work for you." "And yet ten years old, and he was small for his age. But there was something in his speech or manner that held the man's attention." "Do some work for me, eh?" said the man. "What kind of work could you do? You can hardly look over the "Oh, yes, I can," said the little fellow, an he stood on tiptoe and peeped "Out of sheer curiosity the merchant came from behind the courtyard, so as to see if she was a girl," he said. "I see you've got coper taps on your shoes; suppose you wear them, but you didn't see if they didn't have taps on them?" "She can't keep me in the shoes anywheres," he said, and the little boy's voice hesitated. "How old are you? asked the merchant." "I am older than I look; folks say that I'm small for my age." "Well, what is your age?" "I'm going on ten," said Davie, with a look of great importance. "You see," he continued, "my mother hasn't anybody but me, and this morning I saw her crying because she could not find five cents in her pocketbook, and she thinks she must have lost it—and it was—the last cent—that she had—in the world, and—I have—not—had—any—breakfast, sir." The voice again hesitated, and tears came into the little boy's eyes. "Oh, don't cry, my little man, I guess I can help you to a breakfast. Here, take this quarter." He pulled a quarter from his vest pocket and handed it to the boy. The boy shook his head. "Mother wouldn't let me beg," was "Humph!" said the merchant. "Where is your father. "We never heard of him, sir, after he went away. He was lost in the mountains." "That's too bad. But you're a pucky little letter, anyhow. You meet the boy down into the boy's eyes, and the boy looked straight up at him. Turning the sad man, up, he rushed the reckless kid. "Palmer, is cash boy No. 5 still sick?" "Dead, sir, died last night." Was the ```markdown ``` "I'm sorry but here's a boy your firm is asking for. We'll try him for awhile, how. What is your name, by little man? He asked, turning again to you. "Davie Thomas." "Well, Davie, we'll give you threes dollars a week to start with; you come tomorrow morning and I'll tell you what to do. Here's a dollar of your wages in advance. I'll take it out of your week's pay. Do you understand?" "Yes, sir: I understand, and I thank you, too. I'll be back in the morning." Davie shot out of the store, and lost no time in getting back home. The old creaky steps in the old ram-shackle house fairly sang with delight as the weight of the little boy hurried up them. "I've got it, mother," exclaimed Davie. "I'm a cash boy! The man's going to give me three dollars a week, and he says I've got pluck, too: and here's a dollar to get some breakfast with, and don't you cry any more, for I'm going to be the man of this house now." At first the mother was dumbfounded, then she looked confused; and then she looked—well, it passes my power to tell how she did look as she took Davie in her arms and hugged him and kissed him, the teats streaming down her cheeks. But they were tears of joy and thankfulness. June 1927 Famous Births Confluenc, June 19. 551 B. C. Jefferson Davis, June 3. 1808 George III of England. June 4. 1738 Socrates, June 13. 470 B. C.

Tenn. — The bulk of cash held by national Negro insurance companies will be deposited in Negro bank, if the recommendation made at the recent National Negro Insurance Association in Memphis, Tenn. is carried out. Practically all of the large insurance companies have agreed that they will make their deposits and open their savings in race institutions according to the Negro Bankers Association and Dr. J. E. Walker demphis. Pointing out that the percentage of failures among banks operated by our group is less than that of other races, Dr. Walker declared that these insurance companies commend us to our insurance companies as safe depositories for our cash reserves. Many of the large insurance companies have already been carrying large accounts in race banks, several of them in distantly located areas, and the large number of customers, the large amount of money held in trust by our large insurance companies for reality and other operations which will effect the progress which ancillary banks of American life need, and the growth of banks and insurance companies is essential to financial stability.

FITZGERALD Perhaps in no phase of American life and activity has there been greater expansion and improvement of business, which in its more general sense has to do with the production, buying and selling of various commodities, and enterprises growing out of such producing, buying and selling. Among these are financing, which includes the formation in large quantities at low cost; advertising, which creates a greater demand for these commodities; transportation enables distribution to be more wide spread, and insurance which provides coverage; has been produced and accumulated. It is in the world of business that our group has its smallest representation. These reasons for this and the possible remedies therefor are quite too numerous to be included in this, the first of a brief articles on. "The Negro and Business." It will be sufficient now to merely mention the necessity of a larger participation on our part in business activities; the absolute need of adequate breaching of such particular of perseverance, integrity courtesy and untailing reliability for it must be borne in mind that these qualities constitute capital as much so as do dollars and cents. At the base of modern business the credit, and so tumid is it that self-employed and the qualities enumerated above are not found. Now the need of preparedness in the business world can hardly be overstressed. Many men in many lines of business who were successful in the past have failed now if their businesses were conducted today as then. The late Booker Washington was exceedingly fond of relating how the former barber and whitewasher became in later years the torsorial artist, with his antiseptic emporium and interior decorator, a brilliant designer greatly increased care and a higher standing in the community. Colleges and universities no longer confine their teaching to the classics and the learned professions, but have introduced courses that prepare young men and young women for the business that is just as important business organizations everywhere are demanding just that kind of training.

"Well we'll decide," said the patrolman, "if you will drive with me a few blocks down the street." He led the way to the Western police station.

Mrs. Lena Perkins, 1122 Laurens street, who declared that she was married to Perkins in January, 1927 ordered his arrest on grounds of desertion and non-support after he had left her to live with some one else That some one else happened to be Mrs. Hattie Perkins, the man who branded the accusation against her husband as a frame-up and came to the stationhouse with him to prove that she was his lawful wife and was married to him on July 21, 1922. First Wife On Visit Both wives faced each other in court. Wife No. 2. was shocked at the fact that her husband, apprehended, she looked upon as the woman who wrecked her home. The Visit During the course of the hearing it was developed that Wife No. 1 went away on a protracted visit in November, 1926, remaining away for some time. Perkins, in the meantime, met and fell violently in love with the woman who became his second wife. She accepted his proposal thinking him to be a single man. They married and died together two weeks ago when Wife No. 1 returned. Perkins then returned to the original Mrs. Perkins, as though nothing had transpired during her absence. Both Would Give Him Up Mrs. Perkins lived blissfully ignorant of the dual role her husband was playing until he was arrested for non-support. Roy S. Bond, who was retained by Perkins as his attorney, was also unaware of the seriousness of the charge both wives claimed his client as a husband. The attorney stated that he was of the opinion that it was just an ordinary manner they worked. So surprised were the women that they both declared they wanted nothing more to do with him, and were willing to give him up.

BALL GAME ENDS IN JUVENILE RACE WAR BALL GAME ENDS IN JUVENILE RACE WAR Sandlot Teams Clash In Bloody Conflict When Youth Is Struck On Nose With Bat That the younger generation of East Baltimore is not yet ready for racial accord is evidenced by an current accord between the National Football League at Hoffman and Bond streets between a heterogeneous assemblage of young jurists. Saturday. The opposing nines, made of Gentile, Jew. Negroes and Chinamen, were in the height of an exciting contest when an argument arose. Regardless of how the different sides were made when discord came each sought his natural kin and a freefer for an attack, and a freefer to a battle to determine the superiority of the races. Bricks, stones, bottles and miscellaneous articles flew through the air, shirts were torn to shreds and freshly patched breeches were again in dire need of the needle and thread. When the smoke of battle cleared on the appearance of a blue-coated officer from the Northeastern District, one serious casualty was reported. Arthur Cordwell was 0.4 white, had re-covered his blow across the nose with a baseball bat. Edgar Williams of the same age, who lives at 1611 St. Joseph street, was summoned to the Juvenile Court to answer charges of assault.
