Continued On Page Threes Convention Moved From New York Says Finley Wilson NEW YORK INJUNCTION STILL STANDS HE SAYS Chicago And New York Were Other Cities Considered WASHINGTON, D. C.— The 28th annual session of the Grand Lodge of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks will probably be held in Cleveland, Ohio, August 21st to 27th. Grand exalted ruler, J. Finley Wilson has, definitely decided to change the meeting place from New York City. New York Elks failed to comply with the instructions of the Grand Trustees that they have the injunction against the order in New York City dissolved. Chicago and Newark, N. J., were considered for the grand lodge session but Elks in neither place could take the necessary arrangements in time. Grand exalted Ruler Wilson is issuing his official proclamation changing the meeting place Friday. The grand lodge was selected as the next meeting place of Elks convention in Cleveland, Ohio, August 27, 1928, receiving 270 votes. Detroit, the runner-up for next place of meeting received 231 votes. Exalted Ruler Wilson's Change Uncle Ruler Wilson's Grand Exalted Ruler "with the consent of a majority of the Board of Trustees, may, in case of an emergency or extreme necessity, change the time and place of holding the regular annual session of the lodge, and amend in Cleveland last August to give him this authority. The grand trustees, Colonel John R. Marshall, Chicago, Ill.; R. E. Hewlett, Memphis, Tennessee; Edward P. Berry, Chicago, Ill.; and David T. Cardwell, Gary, Ind, met in Chicago, May 3. They instructed Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson to inform Dr. Hudson of arrangements for the committee of arrangements for the grand lodge in New York City, that unless the injunction against the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World was dissolved by June 15, he would select another meeting the session could be legally held. The trustees based their action upon the findings of a committee of lawyers who were appointed to investigate the right of the grand lodge to hold its annual session in New York city. Judge William H. Harrison, Chicago, Ill.; Charles H. Calloway, Kansas City, Mo.; John Starks, Philadelphia, Pa., and Thomas Higgins, New York city. This committee found as a conclusion of law that it would be a violation of the laws of the court of the grand lodge to hold its annual session in New York city. The injunction against the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World was obtained by the Court and Protective Order of Elks in 1904. Elks Restrained using a name so closely resembling it restrained the colored Elks from that of the white Elks as to be calculated to mislead and deceive the public and persons having transactions in the lodge. It prohibited the colored Elks from using the same titles for their officers as those borne by the officers of the white Elks and from using Elk colors, purple and black. On appeal to the Court of Appeals of New York state, it was judged that the striking out the provision forbidding the use of the title of officers and the colors, but was affirmed so far as it restrained the use of the name. For violation of any of these laws punishment is like imprisonment of not more than $1,000 for each offender more than $1,000 for each offender. New York City was chosen as the meeting place of the twenty-eighth annual session after invitations had been received by the officials of New York city and permission had been given by the Grand Lodge of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks for the convention to be held in that city. $15,000 Damages To Kansan KANSAS CITY. — $15,000 damages were awarded Alfred Washington, upon whom a building in which he. was employed severely injured him two years ago.

Confession A Forgery Menard claimed that the signature to the alleged confession was a forgery, the evidence said, was when Mr. Wilkinson showed it to him, letting him see only the signature at first. He said that students were used to making out of their own books what they were adept in signing names. Menard was handed a number of reports and asked to pick out those that he himself had signed.

It came as the climax to the most brilliant and colorful commencement exercises perhaps that have ever been held at Howard University. Dr. Johnson reviewed his work and its founding, his research and development. He pictured its ideals. He offered it as an experimental laboratory in racial good-will and cooperation. He declared for entire public equality. He conducted research out, has grown from one department to nine, from four students to 4,204 coming from 37 states and 11 foreign countries, from 1 teacher to 100, from a rented frame building to 25 buildings and grounds valued at $3,000,000, its annual income from nothing to an average of $500,000, and it has 7,016 graduates. It is said, "the first material university organization to cone pass among New Yorkers." Howard University exists, Dr. Johnson declared, in order to supply competent minds to the nation. He said that he is showing that there is only 1 Negro physician to every 2,300 Negroes in the United States, while there is 1 white physician to every 450 white persons; only 1 Negro dentist to every 20,000 "needy Negro" persons. There is great need for competent Negro lawyers, of teachers and college trained ministers, he stated. "Howard University," he said, "is dedicated to supply these needs and to the opportunities of the contributions of Howard University to the development of cooperative race relations. Dr. Johnson premised his remarks with a statement that the Negro problem is no longer sectional. They will never have a definite geographical unity again, he said. Wherever they go they have certain common problems. This is painful to maintain their self-respect in the presence of their fellow Negroes." "They are struggling today as never before to arrive at some unified understanding respecting what shall be their self expression, what shall be their relation to other members of the American population and how they maintain their creative self respect in the midst of the country where The great question now confronting the world, Dr. Johnson said, is what is going to be the relationship of this country to the weaker peoples of the earth. It is not necessary to explain in detail what is going to be, because the United States has a thermometer in its midst. "What is done as regards the Negro in this country will resound in the halls of the world. What is done to the Negro is an accurate and unifying indicator of the American spirit and of the character and interest of the American mind. He called attention to the special preparedness of Howard University to undertake a study of the Negro problem "that will benefit not only every Negro in the nation but will add to the sum total of human know- The Negro must not forget to cultivate his natural gifts, said Dr. Johnson. He must continue to sing. He must continue to develop his historiical talents, his love to tell a good story and to be a good friend. He must continue to build a foundation. In that sixty years he has had advantage of education, he has come to this place. What is his destiny? I do not know. I hope, and do not conceal my hope, that his destiny will be entire public equality and entire good-will, cooperative relationship with every element of the American people, and that he shall be especially well-educated. He has been in his former years that he have been accustomed to make him enlisted. "I hope that he will be delivered entirely from every form of public curvature and that he will be re-delivered spontaneously by his own consent to the common good. Day Far Off "That day is far off yet. But the existence of this institution tells something about the intent of the American mind. When I see that in sixty years it has been possible for such an institution as this to come to pass, I am encouraged for my country, and my hopes are stimulated by a great inspiration." but yet. But the existence of the American mind is possible for such an institute for my country, and my life. Howard University is here to with all white men who look Negro in a single degree of diminuion of his self respect, and the expressions of any of his students will be a moral accomplishment that expedient be tomorrow. Blackness try to conquer all of the inertness, want blackness to be mash you are among those who a are going out to work and going to find it hard most to desert the public amenities. "Fellow students, Howard University is here to prepare the Negro men who shall cooperate with all white men who look forward to the coming of that day when the Negro will have absolute public equality without having paid the price of any single degree of dimorphism or any kind of disability, or any that he may be able to do without giving up the expressions of any of those individual things which he has been able to bring down with him through history. "I hope that it will be a moral accomplishment, not an expedient of any kind even though that expedient be tomorrow morning. "I want my country to conquer all of the inhibitions connected with blackness or the fears connected with blackness, but I want it to leave blackness there, and I want blackness to be unshamed and unafraid. "Yellow students, you are among those who are prepared part of the Negro community, and people greatly undermanned. You are going to find it hard most of you to earn a living. You are going to be tempted to desert the public good and to seek merely your own self aggrandizement. "But I call upon you to启蒙 your university. Keep especially in remembrance those noble men who founded it here. They thought it a thing not to be shamed to be on equality with Anglo-Saxons and to enjoy all the rights and privileges of Anglo-Saxons. They humbled themselves. They made themselves obedient to the needs of slaves. They lived with us, ate with us, suffered ostracism and humiliation with us in order that by personal contact with us they might teach us the ance to keep in remembrance ance those noble white men ng not to be shamed to be ful the rights and privileges us, ate with us, suffered by personal contact with us ight set us free. ings because they loved a on land or sea, a country and all men are self-dir "They did these things because they loved a country, a country which has never yet existed on land or sea, a country in which all men are free all men are intelligent and all men are self-directed contributors to the common good. Country Not Attained "That country has not yet been attained. It is still the goal of the American people. You are to participate in the bringing of that country to pass. You have here enjoyed the fruits of the labors of the founders. You cannot be self respecting. Your country must be your country. Your country must be your country. You must salute it from afar and even while you fight with every ounce of energy for those public equalities, without which you cannot live self respecting lives, you must also as they have done take upon yourselves the cross your proper share of the responsibility to bring that public equality to pass." not yet been attained.

"You will have to keep in remembrance, and this will be hard for you to do. that many men of other races who seek to do you injustice, are men who have not had the advantages you have had. They do so because in their blindness regarding the purposes of government they think that their own welfare consists in the subordination of your own to them. But if they be blind in the mind, you can learn that you must remember that while they get wisdom and courage to just to you. And you must remember that your disposition may be the decisive factor in the change of their minds.

Fieser, active district head of the National Red Cross in the stricken territory, and as assistant, Robert L. Bond, also Mr. Moose and Mr. Fieser ordered the immediate correction of cells and abuses reported from one of the stricken camps. He retained in sub-committee the consultation for service, and advice the big task of rehabilitation faces the country. Dr. Robert R. Moton presided at the meeting.

In those camps where that treatment was meted out the commission placed the blame squarely on the shoulders of the local and Cross committees bound to the southern citizens of the communities where the camps were located.

HEARS HOUSTON DOWNINGTOWN, PA. - While knowledge is still the most important factor in education, it remains only a precious possession when not accompanied by skill in doing something, declared G.

Prof. Houston, who gave the principal address, said, there is no justification in these days of the practice of induction, your people with book knowledge, while at the same time neglecting the training of their hands. Women Need To Know In adult life, women need to know how to help plan the home, how to purchase and prepare the food, how to select, design and mend the clothing, how to furnish many other technical jobs that will help to keep the family budget low. Homes are rapidly drifting from their old-time moorings to the breakers of social life. The worst type of home in these days is the bevelered home. Much of the unhappiness may be traced to the overwhelming expenses of home-making. A better knowledge of the practical arts would do much to cut down expenses and thus remove at least one of the considerations of home economics. Introductions remarks were made by the Hon. J. C. Asbury, and practical trade demonstrations in home economics, auto mechanics, blacksmithing, carpentry and commercial education were made.

Spelman Fund Fisk University is reported as having received a large grant of some $200,000 from the Laura Spelman-Rockefeller fund to study Negro development in the South. The four professors were to direct this research work in addition to teaching courses at Fisk. Johnson Approached With the declination of Dr. Wessley, Charles S. Johnson, of the N. Y. Urban League Opportunity Magazine, N. Y., is said to have been a great aid to be said to be siding the matter but it is doubtful if he will accept. Haynes' Case Recalled It will be remembered that when Dr. George E. Haynes, one of the founders and the first Executive Secretary of the Urban League, went to Pisk as Professor of Sociology, he was the first of the league in the South, it formed the basis for the developments which severed his connection with that organization. At that time the present Secretary, Eugene Kinckle Jones, was the associate with Dr. Haynes and was the first to develop shortly after it developed out of research work being done by the latter while studying in New York. As the work developed in the East, the Board saw the need of carrying this agency into the South, and Dr. Haynes accepted the professorship at Pisk with the latter while Haynes Out. Very soon, however, a clash in policies developed which started an ever-widening breach between the associate secretaries and the final result was in the very resignation of Dr. Haynes from the league. Dr. Haynes held the professorship at Fisk until the establishment of the Negro Bureau in the Department of Labor during the early days of this country's participation in the War when he headed this department. He never, however, went back to the Urban League and his place at Fisk was filled by Paul Mobray, who has headed up the sociological department of the institution and directed its social service work. It is understood that Dr. Locke may have his old post at Howard if he applies. One Howard official told the AFRO that it seemed as if Fisk University had looked over the best of Howard's flock (faculty) and said, "now, let's go pick them. President Johnson admitted today that the Howard could not compete with Fisk in paying such salaries. He added that he believed the trustees would accept with regret Dr. Brady's resignation.

"The world to-day calls for preparation." "First, have a vision, then prepare it," he said. "Because the man who first builds his achievement within never fails. A theft is committed in the mind of the criminal long before the act is put into practice. In a similar way, achievements long before they become a reality." TWO VIEWS OF LIFE "It is good," he said, in talking on the subject of "Foundation of Achievement." to have a double view in life, the minute view and the time view, to make use of the little things at hand and the second gives us foresight into the future. After grasping our vision, the thing to do is to confidence in that view and confidence in ourselves that we can realize it. "Diplomas," he said, "can give to you no more than you already have." Dr. Wesley admonished the members of higher institutions of learning. ELEVEN GRADUATES Diplomas were presented to 11 graduates by Supt. G. Lloyd Palmer, white.

Payne stated that he attended the commencement at Union University, Richmond, Va., and heard the address made by Dr. L. K. Williams, president of the church. He said it was the greatest he had ever heard delivered by Dr. Williams. The Rev. J. W. Jones stated that a large number of the members of Ebenezer Baptist Church have moved from that neighborhood. But they have not withdrawn their membership, the attendance has been allowed, and they are able to carry the burden easily. Mrs. Lula Richardson was introduced to the conference. She is president of the Women's Convention of the Mt. Bethel Association, and has held that position for about 15 years. Mrs. Richardson urged the ministers to line up with her, because Maryland is far behind in Mt. Bethel work. The trust have proven loyal to her, it is very hard for her to go up every year with her own state not organized solidly behind her.

I sent for Cardui right away; kept on taking it, and in a few weeks I felt stronger. I took on more weight, ate more, rested nights, and did not have the weak spells. I took 6 bottles in all.

GOUCHER IS CONDEMNED "It is imperative that the Negro appreciate white philanthropy more deeply and measure up as far as possible to obligations to Negro institutions of learning", spoke Dr. Pezavia O'Connell at the M. E. Preacher's Meeting on Wednesday. "Dr. Goucher, a real friend to the Negro and in sympathy with the entire Negro situation, appreciated the attribute at his death from local paper. In spite of the many fine things done by Dr. Goucher, the only reference which was made about him was an abominable one from any point of view, that of assisting ministers to get good appointments." The tribute referred to was an editorial in the AFRO of July 38, 1922, which pointed out that Dr. Goucher was a strict believer in segregation in school and church and was a college but excluded Negroes from Goucher. Ministers frequently made use of his influence with the bishops at appointment time, the editorial.

In the June number of The Messenger, J. A. Rogers, the noted author writes: "When the Christian Negro points with pride to St. Augustine, the Numidian Negro, and tells what he did to advance Christianity, the Mohammedan one can point to Bilal, and tell what he did for Christianity's greatest rival. The Negro, is however, hardly likely to do so, as Islam, not only in theory, but in actuality, knows no color line. This Bilal Ibn Rahab whom Mr. Rogers dubs the "Warrior-Priest," is described as "dark. guant, with Negro features and bushy hair. He was the only one of Mohamet's original followers who did not cease when tortured by their master, the Muslim religion. In the depths of the ocean, these prosecutors could force from him one expression: Abba! Abad! "One only one God." When Mohammedanism had spread with the aid of the sword from India to the Atlantic Ocean, says Rogers, "The important task keeping alive these ideals (of Mohammedanism) in the minds of the faithful was left to Bilal, while Mohamet was busy with the plans of battle and government." "Bilal took care that prayer was held no matter what was about to happen. At the battle of Ooh, while the enemy was advancing, he made the soldiers kneel for prayer, inspiring them with his fiery zeal, after which they rose and swept all before them although outnumbered and deserted by one of their allies just before the battle." "Mahomet thought so much of Bilal" writes Mr. Rogers, "that he granted him precedent in Paradise. What shoes were those you wrote in Paradise and was mounting the stairs of God I heard your footsteps before me, though I could not see them." "After Mahomet's death Bilal continued his duties under the Caliph Omar. Mahomet's immediate successor, but one. At the capture of Jerusalem. Bilal rode at Omar's right hand, and saw that all the Christian images, as well as the idolotrous ones, were thrown out of the temples, and the places prepared for the worship of Islam." Bilal's influence lasted until he died.

MCCULLOM'S WEEKLY REVIEW BY OBIE McCOLLOM Still An Artist The writer, like the child who builds a house of toy blocks, dislikes having to tum down anything to which he has added a word of praise or commendation. After writing a review praising the stage work of the producer Chappelle Chappelle, he by the pauper has attempted to run away from his company without paying anyone. Members of his deserted company declare that he had paid his bills with promises for months. Such conduct will shake the confidence of performers in producers. So far as Chappelle is concerned, he may play and certainly not another of actors of the better class who will not gamble their means of livelihood. The only bright ray in the dark affair is the fact that Chappelle is still an artist. His reputation has taken on a dirty yellow color, but he still has a good voice that people will pay to hear in vaudeville or in companies. He also has a wife who ranks second to none in her singing of southern melodies. The picture more artistry than morals. The profession will not forget, however, and the best future course, for Chappelle and Simette apparently lies in vaudeville or show work for other producers. New Evils For Old A decade ago when "Balse a Rucus Tonight" was the feature song number of three score and ten road shows, the theatre pest was the gentleman of about 35 years of net worth who threw money on the stage for the blues singers. He had a good running mate in the guitar and banjo musicians who blocked the streets and sceneda the townfolk with his own compositions of "John Henry and 'Pretty Red Wing.'" We have the smart, high school youngsters who comment loudly about the actresses less and applaud by yelling and whistling. He has a counterpart in the loveseek youth who parades the main streets with his ukulele and uses but four chords in playing all the ploupar and classical pieces of music. Nope, there's no relief. For our old evil, we get new ones. Everybody Suffers Some of the big time shows of even Hurriq and Scanen, and Ed. Daly fail to make more than an average grade when they come around in the colored houses. The productions that appeared to be, and were, suspicious in the white houses, are often stupid when they get off the white circuits. As a result many of the patrons are disappointed and the receipts suffer. Observations show that the poor showings are partly due to the fact that the casts are not retained intact and the patrons who have seen the show in the white houses are looking for the same performers or better ones. Another of the reasons is that the casts one half hour show must be trimmed down one hour in order to be wedged in between the pictures. The solution of the problem is one that will cause more showfolk to stay up late at nights. The show that is built for the picture houses will in most cases, have a better appearance than the longer one that is trimmed down to fit. Va. College Student Writes 8 Shows RICHMOND.

It is apparently a hastily gotten up affair with the leads, chorus and members of the band recruited from the army and the pool of petSome of the costumes were gorgeous and several settings elicited applause instantaneously — the Indian scene, the interior of a Japanese temple, and a peacock drop. The Indian and Japanese, a trio of girl acrobats and the work of the soubrette were most enjoyed. A good looking array of chorus girls who did not know the class, several bits done by singles as fillins and padding did much to injure the production BUENOS NOCHES The first of a series of musical comedies by Pollock Productions, Incorporated, established a change of policy at the Alhambra Theatre, Harlem, Monday evening. Those contributing to the creation of the production were Ernest Pollock, Pollock who wrote the booze, Hocken Hocken music; Warburton Gilbert, Jyrrs, George Stamper, dances; Donald Heywood, musical director. Buenos Noches had little to commend it. The plot could have been made something of but no idea was carried to completion, climaxes were reached without rhyme or reason, and the final curtain found nothing settled. In fact it was the most ridiculous leading lady required to dance, could not dance—a lamentable attempt disgusted The idea of a Spanish play conjures up elaborate scenes, gorgeous cheap costumes, and a lack of real romance moved me to tears—of disappointment. But to speak of the refreshing as Mrs Hindenberg, Vivian Saunards was charming and won the audience (the one dress served throughout the entire evening). Perry Verwayne excellent—a real actor Babe Townsend, acceptable; and the old gent playing opposite Mercedes The tunes are not half bad, but not near enough of them. The dances would have been very good had the chorus girls been chosen with more regard to sit. A dancing team, man and woman won most bands during the evening, and rightly the woman is a corner, lagged a trifle, perhaps to being double duty, but will make a top-top stepper in time. Without doubt the most outstanding thing was the revelation that Lawrence Chenault, of movie and dramatic fame, possesses a beautiful voice, rich, full and with good and even range. It is a voice remarkably dense and long and to me with the joy of Joe Jong and the pleasure that was the most enjoyable thing of the whole concern. Chenault also made the most of his allotted part in the dramatics. This Joe Steele, whom I am told, is a Boston Conservatory graduate, made a remarkably fine showing in his work with the orchestra. His cleancut playing, even apopteryx without form, was a positive delight. The triplet from his fingerprints. He should go far—in a better vehicle. The play was very brief—which was probably fortunate as well as wise.

The program consisted of new Spirituals, folk songs, slave songs, southern songs and classics, jazz and gospel music, jazz music playing also Detsa Juba Dance and as an encore Coleridge Taylor's Bamboula. The concert was well attended and highly commended by the New York Age. Dr. John Touche Struthers pastor sent to touch on personal letter of thanks and commendation. LEONARD HARPER'S At the Lincoln Theatre last week Leonard Hauer's Magnolia Revue packed them in consistently throughout the seven days. It was highly entertaining from the cotton-fold-cabin scene to the ultramodern finale. Costumes were colorful and frequent. The show was featured in several songs. A dancing team—Frazier and Banks formerly of the Club Alabama feuded largely in and out displaying quite an assortment of satin shirts. Radchiffe and Radchiffe were very good—the comedian was a surprisingly funny man who should dress differently—looks too stout, which is not at all necessary in these days of concealment and camouflage. The other half of the team is clever and versatile, a new kind of comedy. His West Indian bit was convulsive and funny, with skits of scream. He also acted as master of ceremonies at the close. JEANETTE, as well, known and as much preferred as Three Flowers Perfume, verily took the Lincoln in charge as long as she and her clever partner whom she referred to, as long, lanky the design. As decent as the flowers wanted to see all their wares, for they were encored so many times that I lost count long since Black bottom. Charleston a La Jeunesse, soms put over in her inimitable style, all this and more. A piano player, Mary Williams, timid and did not demand the recognition to which she is entitled. The Jeanette and Trio is a sure not only stage. Hunter and Peat were not helped any by old material though one or two jokes went over fairly well. Edith Warren and Al Moran. Argentine dancers, were the high artistic spot of the revue Their work is fine. For appearance, grace and poise, they are outstanding. In profoundly encouraging to witness the enthusiasm with which their art was received. The bringing of such a team to the Lincoln speaks well for the dancers. Leonard Harper and the manager of the theatre. Lance Sawders, Caren Lempo, Aslan Lench, Luriele Smith, Fannie Balon, Bertha Young, Dolly McCormack. Mary Perall were rhythmic dancers and were there with the look, as well. A beautiful and well-formed chorus. Maclonia Revue is a good show with a few dancers. The ensemble unit—it is approached to deliberately and laboriously and should have more snap. N. Y. Has Mixed Writers Benefit N. Y.

SAYS UNION MEN WERE NOT OUSTED SAYS UNION MEN WERE NOT OUSTED Lichtman Declares He Is Not Opposed To Organized Musicians The union musicians comprising the former Royal Theatre orchestra, were not ousted by the new management last week but failed to turn for work in the theatre and the new office was put in their place, recording to a statement given to the press, Monday, by the new operator. A. L. Lichtman, white, also operator of the Howard and Lincoln Theatres in Washington. Mr. Lichtman decided that he is not union labor and has told the Federation of Musicians that he would consider terms with the organization if it is able to break up the non-union agreement between the motion picture operators the musicians and stage. The Washington house Union workers are involved at the New York house which he is connected. The former house orchestra maintains that another group of musicians was substituted in their places while they held a concert with the members for months. Lichtman said in his statement Monday that just before his taking over the management, the union had informed him that the union orchestra could not remain in the house. Later, when he had engaged another group of musicians, the Federation said that the union mrt could remain. STAR The season at the Star is being closed this week by "Happy" Douner's "Let's Get Ready" Company. "Happy" is drawing quite a few laughs from the patrons with the aid of "Kid" Piedmont, old veteran of the T. O. B. A. circuit. The team has a smart tabloid revue type and has series of bits that are novel and well presented. Some of the songs are a bit time worn, but with all that "Happy's" revue is good entertainment.

Mary is shy of a good voice, but she knows how to make you laugh and is an eccentric dancer. "Butch" Williams is doing the straight role Effe Moore is leading the ladies of the ensemble with a snappy routine of popular songs. Quick" Delotch is the featured dancer. Among the most prominent of the chorus members is Glara Douver, wife of "Happy", who does team dances and comedy with her band and leads the band in many numbers. Garland and Williams take part in no speciality but is pleasing the chorus work. Garland also has the gift of good looks. The other members of the company are: E. C. Humphrey, pianist Susie Weller. Katie Robinson and Ross Morris, chorus girls. REGENT Marion Davies is shown in one of her best roles of all time as the coy and whisome Dutch maid in "The Red Mill". The Regent management has secured its offering, and the super productions that it is offering its patrons as a part of the summer policy. The low lying country of Holland with its quaint people and great dikes that keep back the sea, has always proved to be a colorful locale for writers and artists. The fact that the scenes were taken entirely in California, an accurate picture of the homeland of the Dutch is achieved throughout the story. Milton Sills will be seen in "The Silent Lover" on Wednesday and Saturday. By making negotiations months in advance the Regent has secured Jules Verne's mighty melodrama "Michael Strögoff" as one of its future offerings. The story is that of a manuspain-to-manpain in the Russian steppes of 5,000 daring horsemen of the mental splendor and color. The photoplay is now being shown downtown at the Embassy and the Regent will be the first theatre catering to colored audiences that will present it. TREMENDOUS!

Deserts Office And Typewriter For Career On Stage Danseuse Says She Preferred Terpsichorean Art To Beating Upon Typewriter Call Vernon 6016 What efficient young secretary and stenographer would quit a promising career for a beginning on the stage? That was the question that "Honey" Brown, litle, brown danseuse with Rarin' Go' at the Royal Lost wife had answered in a Chicago office in 1921. Back in those days "Honey" was a sweet girl graduate from the commercial department of Lucy Fowler High School, Chicago. By dint of hard study she was numbered among the top students, with a great opportunity to take dictation and do transcription in a practical way. She was employed in the State Street office of George Harris, a real estate broker. In explaining her stage debut, "Honey" says in her simple, naive manner that "Yes, I enjoyed my work. Yes, I was an excellent interesting, but there is much more pleasure in dancing." Bertha Ricks, who by the way is the wife of Snow Fisher, celebrated dancer, induced her sister to help her out in a sister team act and somehow the profession stuck. "Honey" was comparatively short time was being bled for by the larger shows. Most of her work has been done in the night clubs of the East. After she joined the company in Chicago, she became almost an institution in New York. Among the haunts of Manhattan pleasure seekers she has been featured at the Hollywood, Cotton Club, Nest and Vo-Do-Eo. Miss Brown has acquired quite a repertoire of dances, including odeos in all its variations, eccentricities and high kick routines. Her greatest asset, in addition to grace and originality, is her smile. Let the orchestra be off color, the company in a nasty mood, or the manager be expressing his temperament. "Money" is pleasant and with a smile, possibly the reason that some critics gave her such a sweet name. The little danseuse has been a worker of the Daly combination on the Columbia and other circuits for some time. She has already been engaged as a role in the new Daly show which co-created the season next month for the coming season on the Columbia wheel. ROBESON QUITS SPOKEN STAGE Adoptes Concert Field As Career, To Co-Sar With Florence Mills In "Porgy." WASHINGTON, D. C.-C. Paul Robeson, celebrated singer, actor, and athlete who spent the week-end at Arundel-On-The-Bay here, told the APMER-AMERICAN CUNDI that he has given up all thought of work in the spoken drama and will devote his future to motion pictures and a career on the concert stage. Mr. Robeson stated that he will do more than the larger film producers this summer and return to the concert stage when the season opens. The hero of the "Emperor Jones," "Black Boy," and several photoplays intimated that he may accept the male lead in the production of DuBose Heyward's "Porgy" which is to be done by Cecil B. DeVille, the founder of "Black birds" fame, now in London, is reported to have been offered the leading female role. Late press reports from England say that Miss Mills has denied that she has severed business relations with Lew Leslie, owner of the "Blackbirds," and will return to America. She will be at the company at the Strand, London and will probably go on tour with her fellows in a few weeks. PLAYWRIGHT DIES SUDDENLY IN WEST Howard Law Graduate Succumbs in Arms Of White Employer SANTA MONICA, CAL. (PCNB) — Bake Thirty hours burning, after having placed a carnation in the buttonhole of his employer's coat and bidding him goodbye, J. Goodman Braye took suddenly ill and in less than five minutes died in the arms of his employer, Frank Sebastian, owner of the Sebastian Cotton Club in Culver City, Cal. He was a native of Sydney, Australia and a graduate in law from Howard University. He was adopted and reared by a prominent and wealthy Jew of Chicago, by the name of Lippmor Tannbaum; had attended a Jewish synagogue and spoke the Hebrew language fluently.

He also traveled with the well-known theatrical company of Stewart and Robin; n. and was a gifted playwright having completed two plays, "The Terminale King" and "The Black Millionaire"; the latter for which he was offered a large sum.

ENGLISHMEN PROTEST FOREIGN ARTISTS LONDON. — The Variety Artists Federation of England at a formal meeting last week voted to protest against the further immigration of colored actors. The final influx of colored vanilleville actors and companies has been watched with more or less jealousy by some English performers because the foreigners took much of the popularity and money from native talent. V. A. F. has been active for a number of years in attempting to influence the labor ministry to curtail labor permits of foreign artists. Prince Henry Wins At Blackbottom Prince Henry Wins At Blackbottom PARIS, France—Prince Henry of England, third son of King George won the Black Bottom contest in the early hours of Tuesday morning at the Florence night club, owned by the prestigious colors of the Monacoate section against expert competitors, including some professionals.

The prince got a big hand when he tried and the other contestants decided that the royalist had won. He got the prize—an oak either trimmed suit of casks palettes. The Afro-American—Baltimore, Md.—South's Biggest and Best Weekly SKETCHES OF PLAY FOLK SKETCHES OF PLAY FOLK By Walter L. Reeves, Jr. The Capital play-goers had in their midst during the past week some of the most versatile and veteran actors and actresses of the musical comedy world. Among them were Salem Tutt, Whitney and the actor and Bvde Robinson, Billy Higgins, Joe Byrd, Ernest Whitman and their "Lucky Sambo" company. I found Salem Tutt Whitney, earnestly trying to show Miss Ridley just how she should carry her basket in a country girl's outfit, while in "Mustal Nonsense" while in their dressing room at the Lincoln Theatre. Whitney as you noted in last week's AFRO is just back before the footlights after an illness of 8 months. Miss Ridley who is his co-partner, was one of the principals in the theater's greatest success, "Desires of 1827." Just a word about Whitney and what he is going to do this fall. To those who do not recall, the comedian is native of Logansport. His music was a concert artist in 1901. He sang as you know—bass. In 1904 his kid brother, J. Homer Tutt, joined him and they had a team. In 1905 they joined the S. H. Dudley's "Smarter Set" company and worked until 1906. In 1907, he entered "Black Fattie" show and remained for two years. Then in 1908, with his brother, they started the original "Smarter Set" show which has for the last 15 years been one of the most talked of successes in college. At the present time, Mr. Whitney says he will do vaudeville for a few weeks. Then in the fall in cooperation with his brother, Homer Tutt, they will put a new show on the road entitled "Zandals of 1928." There are other musical hits to follow "Nut Brown Gal" and "Children of the Sun." Accompanied Roland Hayes Maybelle Ridley, sat in her dressing room, and her face glistening in, and her face glistening in, in up under the electric lights. "I was born in Augusta, Ga," she said, when I asked her where her native home was. Miss Ridley is not very well known to the Washington show folks but the fact that she accompanied Roland Hayes, America's foremost musician, in 1913 that she played for the Boston ian and at that time he was in Georgia. Miss Ridley, a graduate of Payne College, taught at that school for 3 years. She made her first debut on on the stage three years ago in New York City, and two in the "Smarter Set. She is a member of one of the set. She is a member of Georgia her father, G. N. Ridley, being the man to ever sit on a jury in Augusta. It seemed from the many inquiries that the trio in "Lucky Sambo" which played at the Howard, made the biggest hit. So in order to get acquainted with the three damsels I visited the misses Miss Perle Perle, where met Amanda Randolph, Miss Perle as many Washingtonians know, is formerly a student at Howard University. She hailed from St. Louis and got her first glimpse of the stage in 1915 when she was played by Gertrude Trudeau. Banks is from Chicago and proud of it, while Miss Randolph came up from old Cincinnati, Ohio. Just a word about those two funny comedians and Ernest Whitman, that leading man, Billy Higgins, without further introduction is a Southern. He began his career at C, and his buddy Joe Byrd, came from Jacksonville, Fla. Whitman the third of this inseparable party was born in Oklahoma. It is interesting to note that these three men met in 1910 and have not been apart since. ACTORS WEDDED IN MAKEUP COSTUMES BOSTON — Among the dangling ropes of scenery curtains and sheltered from the curious eyes of staze hands by scenery props, Carol Chilton, 19, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Chilton of Chicago and Maceo Thomas, 2 son of Mr. Mrs. Joseph T. Thomas, of Cleveland were united in marriage late this afternoon on the back stage of the Scollay Square Olympia here. The setting for the ceremony befell the couple be one of the most unique of its knickknacks decorated by the light of a dressing table. Clad in their dance costumes, with rouged faces, the couple said yes to a justice of peace. The orchestra was playing an accompaniment for a suburban news feature while the ceremony being performed. Following the ceremony, the affair, the two went directly on the stage as their act was first on the bill. The couple make up the act of Chilton and Thomas, singing and dancing in the theatre this week. Traveling in midwife for the past two years the pair became engaged six months ago. The young husband, born in Birmingham. Ala., intends to continue in vaudeville with the same act for a year at the close of which he will set up a home for his wife, continuing in theatricals alone, he savs. Florence Mills And Paul Robeson May Play In "Porgy" NEW YORK—An unconfirmed report has it that Cecil M. DeMille is considering Florence Mills and Paul Robeson for the leading roles in his master screen version of DuBose Heyward's "Porgy," as it is that Miss Mills has seved business connections with Low Leslie, who has been her manager for several years. She is now planning an extended engagement with the "Blackbirds" at the Strand, London, following the close of the show at the Pavilion. The star is expected to return to America before the end of June. Robeson is convalescing from a recent illness in New York and has made no statement of a professional return. "Porgy" would require a large cast of colored actors.

I found that those belonging to this class of beauty were: the Misses Mary Colona, Louise Coleman and Virginia W. The best dressed and most popular girls our confidante informs us of the Misses Texanna Ellis, Ola Gathera, Catherine McMechen, Amanda Parker, Katherine Jefferson, Arlene Forn, and Sarah Mason. And our course, a class cannot get without human fun-boxes, the just girls' nurse turns more other than Nellie Nellie Bahr, Wahasuulo Male and Texanna Ellis. Girls possessing remarkable psychosensor ability were found to be the Misses Agnes Agnes Mason. Goa McMechen, Lola Ellis, Texanna Ellis. Mallory Anne. The Nightingales of the class are the ones Anna Brown, and Virginia Jackson. They are Alice Kenny, Veronica Woodman and Erma Kelly. The Goddess of music used to favor songs Helen Holt. Lucy Mason Hilroth Mitchell and Marian Joyce Alloson. Edwards Joyce ploma at three and a half years of has been class work. It is a remarkable feat if one considers it a fact that he is only 14 years of age.

Well, here is the reason why the fan do not attend, and who blames them? The game is a ball or strike some of the players leave their positions and go in for a long jabber with the umpire about his decision. Sometimes the manager in the meantime the fans also lose interest and the game is therefore slowed up. The home team is just as important as the visitors and every club in the league ought to stop such tactics. As long as this thing continues, all the managers can do is look for a slim attendance.

June 18, 1927 SOX A Tows HILLDALE'S NINE ERRORS GIVE SOX GAME Vip Winters Chased To Showers; Hadn't Allow- A Hit DARBY CREW WIN SECOND GAME 5-3 McClure Wins Seventh Straight—Wilson Fined; Nine Bases Stolen WALTER REEVES, JR. Baffled by the fast ball hurling of "Bob" McClure, after three errors, a wild throw by J. Washington, and a base on ball by Winters enabling them to ease over four runs in the first inning, the Black Sox continued on the warpath against the slants of "Red" Ryan and downed the Hilldale Daisies 10 to 0 in the first game of their double bill at the Maryland Park Sunday, while the visitors came back and captured the nightcap 5 to 3. More than 3,500 fans were on hand for this slaughter. The Sox apparently were not much affected by a week's lay off. Some one in the stands bellowed that "Bob" was a hot weather man he was. The elongated twirler from Birningham, started off in form and was just strong in the finish as when he took the hill. Toller McCure, who has suffered two feats to lead the league's Pokey, his nearest opponent and teammate, was hung up six wins on loses. Winters Wild Nip Winters is a product of the Washington, D. C. sandios, started in the mound for Hildale. The Southpaw lad who is one of the earlier in the Eastside league, was in the midst of a beat. In the first he walked P. Johnson. Holloway bunted, reached first safe on Washington's wild throw to kite in the meantime. Johnson went to the mound home when he bait a bit slow in recovering the ball Jackson went by the midst our route and Holloway to second. Holloway went to third and ball into Washington in attempt to get the former at seconcton grounded. Winters who impel pick up the ball was safe at first. Taylor was the third man to walk and Warfield winters to the bench. Bran took up the ball and wining duties. Sequel to Warfield, he played and Wilson scored. Brown Severed a high fly to short left field. Bran went back for the field. I then dropped the ball. Washington fourth and last for that frame. "Deli Starts Well **Ken** "Red: Reed the Darby speed king, parted well but weakened in the third sixth and seventh innings, with bibs taking six more for a total of ten. In the third round Wilson slammed a hot one at Evan Gay, but Stevens threw the sphere into the stands in his attempt to get the runner on. Ken, advancing on, scored when Pete Washington singled to center. More Buns In the sixth, P. Johnson was struck by Ryan and stole second on the next play. Holloway bunted to Ryan, who threw wild to Yancey first, the ball going to the steward and Johnson scored. The ball went double and Johnson scored and then the former was out at third trying to stretch the hit for three bases. Washington and Taylor simulated respectively. Eggleton got teager over first base and Washing- In the seventh the Sox counted their last two runs. McClure laid his hat, then Ryan fielded the ball and "saved it over Yancey's head for the second time. Bob going to third, punched up the ball and picked up on the ball he dropped it as he attempted to throw to first and McClure scored. Holloway stolled. Washington's throw put Warfield way off the bag to set the ball which the after then dropped. Jackson fied and Holloway counted after the catch. Brown Led Attack "Scrappy" Brown was the only wearer of the "B" to collect more than two bingles. The former base player got four of five triples in the plate. The nine other Sox blows were divided between Jackson. Wilson. Taylor. Washington, who got two each and Washington, who got two each and Winters Out Of Luck. Although Winters got credit for losing the game he was not cut up upon the hill. The three errors and two wild heaves coupled with a duet falls which gave the foul ball its departure. All told, Hildale made 9 errors. The Second Contest. The Darby Daisies sought revenge in the second game and was Cockerell, who twirled for the visitors was by no means a puzzle but good fielding helped him pull away to a victory. Wilson, locals' hard hitting Sox third baseman, was out of the second game because of a recent fine imposed days ago. His loss, however, was not YET son Athle noticeable as the locals turned in two double plays and Eggleton who held down the hot corner handled his one chance well. Sox Score Eggleton walked, stole second and tallied on Brownts single to left to give the locals a score in the second inning. That Fourth Thomas led off with a double to center to start the fourth inning, Scott, formerly of the Harrisburg Giants, drew a walk. J. Washington beat a hit to Eggleton, filling the score, with a sacrifice to Holloway scoring Thomas Yay cingled to left as Scott and Washington spared.

It seems that from the way the Harrisburg Giants are pushing along this season there is something wrong in camp, with the Giants with the Senators now is probably similar to the trouble of the Sox last season. Manager Taylor could not get the boys together at camp and just would not listen to reason. Then there was an awakening. There were changes. Changes that sent some of the best baseball players on the Black Sox roster, other than the Giants, had the results of Ben Taylor's maneuvering. Without a doubt he has the best bull club in the Eastern League. The two players that maneuvering is the team we too many stars on their roster. Every one desires to be a star, nobody the little man. The Raleigh Giants now trail the bottom of the league. Manager Nat Strong has taken all the players released thru trades or outright hooked them together and are now playing from the Lincoln Giants.

Thoughts Of The Founder Educating a child to keep him from work is certainly a poor idea and one that will not work to a great advantage. It is well known that the more education one has, the harder one has to work to keep up with ever-advancing new ideas being constantly advocated. President Mordecal Johnson in his inaugural address at Howard University last week spoke for more than an hour. An audience estimated at 5,000 gave him a noisy welcome and then listened with rapt attention to his program for the university, his conception of the race problem and his prediction as to the manner and time of its solution. That audience applauded Dr. Johnson as he pointed out that Howard was a monument to the heroic devotion of her white founder, to the far-sighted wisdom of the federal government and to the genius of the Negro people. The audience applauded also as the speaker coined the phrase "public equality," expressing the hope that the whites would yield it without condescension and the blacks assume it without loss of self-respect or loss of their physical character-ette as black men. There were cheers as Dr. Johnson said that the medical school endowment was within $15,000 of its half million dollar goal, two-thirds of which had been paid in by colored people. But the applause which was loudest greeted the new president's statement that Howard University is located in Washington, a southern city, differing little from centers of large population in a state like Mississippi. The demonstration which followed this sentence was arresting. It echoed around the open air amphitheater and was caught up by the loud speaker on the platform to be cast out again over the audience. There is nothing of great philosophical import in that simple sentence. It was spoken quietly, without gestures, but it moved a large audience, which came out to see what manner of leader the first colored president of Howard University is. They heard the old theories of race equality without race intermixure. Nothing new in that. Booken Washington preached it. They heard the white founders praised for their office in reconstructions and the alumni praised for recent gifts. Nothing new or startling, about these things. Was after all, Dr. Johnson to prove a disappointment, the audience wondered? Then there came what they awaited. The sentence that the Howard president isn't an ultra conservative, not an "old timer," history and flattery as his chief stock in trade. The attitude of the white race in Washington is about the same as it is in Mississippi, infested the president. His eyes were there. There are colors. The color line is rapidly moving North. The more intelligent the Negro becomes, the harder he must fight to hold his place as a citizen. Ixie is at one and the same time, our best friend and our worst enemy. All these facts and more that he spoke to the listening crowd who recognized in the president a new champion and 'a progressive.' Lindbergh The Great Fickle is public acclaim. "Slim" "Lucky" Lindbergh, yesterday unknown, today is the nation's hero, with his bosom covered with medals. He's "Plucky" now. Almost unnoticed. On the crowd welcomed Lincoln on Lindbergh to Washington as Commander Richard Byrd to fly over the North Pole. Byrd's exploit was far more dangerous and uncertain than Lindbergh's. The Spingarn Medal Committee awarded the decoration this year to Mr. Anthony Overton, Chicago banker, insurance agent and first to quantify an insurance company in New York. Mr. Overton is to be congratulated. He is a modest and successful business man of the type the country needs. Passed over by the Spingarn Medal Committee was Mr. Matthew Henson in his day, one of the greatest explorers and the only living civilized person who has ever set foot on the North Pole. Forgotten by his country, neglected by his own people, Mr. Henson excelled in a government post in New York. All these and more are heroes and deserving of medals and acclaim.

Nearly Overlooked News of the Atlantic Ocean air navigators crowded the Memorial Day speech of President Coolidge out of the newspapers. Nevertheless the president said something that none of us can afford to take. Said the "The issue over which the Civil War was fought has been settled, but it has left heirs and successors in all the different brands of sectionalism, with their special pleaders who are oftentimes extremely vocal. But in any national government all parts of our country are equally important and entitled to equal consideration. They are all parts of one common whole, which must succeed or fall together. "All efforts to set one part against another part, to advance one section at the expense of another, to the species of disloyalty to the spirit of the Union." Human nature is so constituted that it forever draws lines of difference. It sets race against race, denomination against denomination, republican against democrat, rich against poor, farmer against manufacturer, miners against shippers, capital against labor, dry against wet. The division of our country into classes bitterly at odds with each other is an issue more pregnant with danger than welfare than the old question of sectionalism which we have settled forever. The president does well to remind us that we are all parts of one common whole and must succeed or fall together. As an earnest of his sincerity, we should like to have him take one further step and declare that our constitution, the highest law of the land is sacred and every section equally enforceable. We would like to have the President say that every effort to enforce one section that sacred contract should be garaged another is also a species of disloyalty to the spirit of the union." To put it bluntly the president who seeks to settle sectional problems still winks at the race problem. Peace and harmony between the north and the south is no more important than peace between the southern black and the southern white. The president's address in the last analysis leaves unsaid much more to the said. He leaves room to doubt whether his idea of national union is big enough to include all of our citizens. We Hate All race prejudice is not on one side, declared Mr. Robert E. Bleazer, white, of the Interracial Commission, speaking at Lincoln commencement recently. He points out that while many white newspapers feature colored criminals, many colored papers feature white criminals. He might have gone further. Some white newspapers refer only to white women as "Mrs.", or "Miss."-Colored newspapers retaliate by referring to white women as "Jane" and "Mary." White newspapers feature colored shooters. Colored newspapers rarely overlook the accounts of gambling in white clubs and the arrest of white boys for stealing watermplons. White newspapers refer to people as Negroes with small "n" down South they use "darky." Colored newspapers use the term "cracker of the beaches." Mr. Eleazer is right. All race prejudice is not on one side. Hate begets hate. Prejudice breeds prejudice. We are getting to the place where we must destroy them or they will destroy us. Thank God for men like those who make up the Interracial Commission with courage and conscience enough to tackle the job. Who Is Friend? BY M. S. STUART Who is your friend, who is your friend?

Lee chur- ing from ized DAYBY DAY Why Not Try A Little Religion? In a sermon Sunday morning at Grace Presbyterian Church, the Rev. J. T. Colbert, one of the ablest and most conscientious ministers in the church, told us the problems of modern youth are taxing the Christian church beyond its ability to cope with them. Less than a block from this church, we were bewailing the tendency of youth to drift from the old order into a modernized world of mammon. Compared with the times, however, the alarming about the spirit of the modern youth. The trouble is not that youth is so far ahead of time but that our institutions are too far behind time. Young men and women between the ages of 14 and 25 are exalted above all other abhorrent of shams. That is one of the reasons why grownups often fail to understand their attitude towards time worn institutions. They stray from the church during these ages not because their religious impulses are against this age, but because during this age they are, generally disillusioned. THEY NO LONGER CAN BE MADE TO BELIEVE FROM STORIES OR TOLD FROM THE PULPIT. Ministers can't preach me "Thou shalt be neighbor as thou art" "Sell all you have and give to the Poor" on Sunday and then whiz by them in high powered automobiles which they squeeze out of washersmen on Monday to infect youth to believe them sinner. They can't tell them to "suffer little children to come unto me" and see them neglect thousands of children in the neglected areas of our cities untouched by church influences. They can't teach high moral ideals with their churches honey combed with officials and members whom youth know to be moral lepers. They can't teach courage and the fearless spirit of unabridged righteousness, when they soft pedal the facts of the wrongdoing to higher ups and money changers Christ chlogged out of His temple. SUPPOSE THEY TRY A LITTLE UNDILUTED RELIGION OF JESUS CHRIST. Real Religion Is Still Vital In The South Down in Memphis, Tenn., officials of the Booker T. Washington High school responsible for printing of their program, wrote the words "Mr." and "Mrs. where white names appeared but omitted them where colored names were members of, or given ness. And links into my throat her tiger's thigh. Stealing my breath of life, I will confess I love this cultured hell that test my feelings. Her vigor flows like tides into my blood, Giving me strength against her hate. Her bigness sweeps my being like a flood, Yet, a rebel fronta a king in state, I stand within her walls with not a shred of blood, malice, not a word of jeer. Darkly I gaze into the days ahead, And see her might and granite wonders there. Bound the touch of Time's unerring hand. WITH WILLIAM N. JONES Undoubtedly there are dangers and many youth will be destroying the spirit of revolt. Nature always has produced humanity, in a costly way, thousands of souls. Lighting against the modern evils, thousands of others will grow proportionately strong and help to The fact is, the trouble is not with youth nor religion; both youth and religion have been all right since the world began; the will always be. The will always be with the faith of the institution of religion and the lack of proper adult leadership for youth. YOUTH CALLS THIS BOLEY AND APPLE SAUCE. The church has tried many pansies for the growing revolt of youth. Wonderful structures, efficient organization and in some places excellent social service. Beginning with their own lives the ministry might exemplify more than the spirit of the church in the fishiness of the BU UP 33 YEARS HAVEN AND WAS CRUCIED THAT A WORLD MIGHT HAVE A NEW IDEALISM OF MAN RELATIONS. OLDS, MINISTRY THAT THE WORLD MIGHT KEEP THAT IDEALISM. They might show youth that real religion is still vital and genuine by driving selfish more leaps from their views, known to youth from their choirs. They might show youth that a man or woman can't prostitute a ligion and still stand in the councils of the church by contributing generously in the collection Young men and women need the influence of the church in their lives. The success of Christ; every youth should be a consistent church member properly to develop their best leadership in a world in which the church leadership seems to be saying. "I'll get mine in this world," the spirit and get their fung at life. That's about the last word in "Unknotism." But it is more than that. It is stupid. Even in the South the white men and women admire self esteem and courage and respond to it more frequently than they will to deepen their toadly devotion of these The result is that officers who deleted "Mr." and "Mrs." from their own names with what it would have been. I have had at least many soft-teen and formal worse in the good will they, were trying to cultivate. If it is not then these white people are so low in the size of human beings they do not respond in ideal terms. In either case it does not pay.

THE BUSY MAN If you want a favor done For some dear friend; And that many Of The Wearers Contain Trash And Garbage. To the Editor: The Afro-American usually contains so many excellent things that one finds it a matter of genuine regret when it becomes necessary to find fault with any shortcoming or to disagree with a position taken in its editorial columns. Such an occasion for disagreement, however, is presented to the mind of the writer by an editorial in your issue of June 11 under the caption "15 Minutes A Day for Newspapers." The editorial referred to what many regarded as a very excellent address by the Rev. Dr. James Gregg, president of Hampton Institute, at the closing meeting of the Schoolmasters' Club. The speaker did not say the Saturday Evening Post is a periodical to be avoided. Those present' will remember that he did say that its matter was so alluringly presented that even he, the speaker, found himself in a position to be weekly more time than the worth its articles justified. It is true that in his characterization of much of what the newstands carry as trash he mentioned no newspaper he read, but thinking this was very wise, for he done so the whole time allotted for the address might have been thus consumed. In the fourth and longest paragraph of the editorial much is made of the address he did is to mention his year at Harvard, three at Yale and fifteen in the ministry of the Congregational Church. Now just why should he unfit him for making the address he did is to mention what Struck Billy Patterson?" or the kidnapping of Charles Ross. Speaking to a body of teachers whose main business is the strengthening and broadening character, it was quite natural that Gregg the cultural to his hearers themselves of the noblest and best of what the world's great thinkers have written It is still true that as a man who is the trashyopheral, and often vile stuff supplied in over abundance by so many present day newspapers and periodicals and you produce olfactory unstable creations that clutters up the paths of real progress in civilization. Howard E. Young, 2215 Madison Avenue. Certainly Delaware Can Get Colored Lawyers Admitted To the Bar. H The People Insist It Shall Be Done To the Editor: We should seek to have the white people read the best of colored papers possible in order that we be better prepared to them. We Pozavia O'Connell usually says, 'they do not know our people.' Just a few days ago, I talked to Dr. W. M. Henry, of Dover, Del. as he passed through the hospital, where he is a member of the hospital staff. Later I told a gentleman that he was a medical doctor and that his patients included some who had been surprised to know that Dover had a colored doctor. I guess he thought that since there were no colored lawyers in Delaware, there were no colored doctors. I told him that in my home state, Maryland, we have men like W. T. McGunn, Ashleie Hawkins, Bond and manp, and lawyers, and lawyers would look for the good of the masses instead of individual interest and play politics for the masses well, the good of the broken and the colored men would be admitted to the bar in Delaware. Some said the colored teachers with the same grade of certificates could not get the job, Howard, Dr. Jason Al Rakes, Mrs. Alice Dunbun-Nelson Prof. Theodore Johnson and the Rev. Theodore Johnson said it could be done and it was done. They say in Delaware that no Negroes in the bar. But it can be done as in Baltimore and elsewhere, but only when leaders forget self and look out for the interest of the masses. One Republican whom the colorless people in the Delaware or Delegates voted against the increase of salaries. Do you think the Baltimore or Maryland jobs would use for nine hour days or leaders or give way to edicts of others. 450,000 People Are Always Sick 450,000 People Are Always Sick BY JOHN W.

There seems to be one white physician for every 535 white citizen. We see a Negro college physician for every 4,200 Negroes. In connection with the physicians we have, we must carry the additional information that almost 450-500 Negroes in one section of the city have a time of illness, in this case, costs the race $750,000 a year. In one section alone we lose by death, annually, over 200. Negroes in one section of every hundred annual cases can be prevented. It seems that there is one white dentist for every 2,100 white citizens. There is a Negro dentist for every 23,000 Negroes. The Dental Clinic is only one item of the dental program. Many human alliances are traceable to defective teeth. There is a white lawyer, a justice of the peace, or judge for every 718 white citizens.

It is a great thing to stand on the solid foundation of eternal truth and the Devil has the laugh on us when he can get us to shout louder than we live. Thousands who never read a Bible are today Bible-breakers and conscientiously trying to decide which side is right. Our doctrines are being judged by our deeds. Men know that those who believe in their "Father", and they shall not be confused by the spirit which we display. A Christ like life is the greatest contribution my Christian has made to Rev. V. Bonds said: "All Christians like all scripture should be God breathed. Such Christian is his master than another is in his many words in defense of doctrines. Dean Kelly Miller's Articles Have Aled in Auring Sympathy For Marcus Garvey. To the Editor: I have been at a constant reader of your pages for more than 20 years, but the articles published by Marcus Garvey, by Prof. Kelly Miller increased my interest as nothing else would. The articles were a championship of a man who is down, but down because he dared to speak for his people. Mr. Garvey is guilty of his crime, on the one hand, of cruel misjudgment, on the other, that occurred to him and may happen to any outstanding member of our group who would dare to be the mouthpiece of his people. Your paper has done much in improving the articles for Mr. Garvey, but let's keep the sentiment growing until he has been given an absolute freedom. I would request that your send Mr. Garvey your paper of Prof. Miller's statement as your contribution toward his happiness while With all of our forces united for Mar. Gavrey, it will not be long before his release will be assured.

Lloyd George, Abraham Lincoln And "Teddy" Roosevelt Did Not Agree With The Reverend Mister Gregg Of Hampton. To the Editor: Please accept my congratulations for your timely editorial, under the caption "15 Minutes a Day For Newspapers." It was perfectly fitting that you named the authors, philosophers and poets, that the Rev. J. E. Gregg advised his hearers to read. I am quite sure the distinguished educator could speak with such a speech before a white audience. The late Col. Roosevelt speaking before fifteen thousand of the most intelligent people in the country, "stated that the press of the country, was the greatest and most beneficial agency of all our public utilities," newspapers carry his book *Braggadocio*. If your readers will pardon my braggadocio. I have covered both white and black newspapers in Maryland. In all of the years I have spent listening to public speakers. I have never seen or heard of one of the intelligent people not to read newspapers and periodicals. I have heard men make a distinction as to what kind of climate they didn't like the climax. Why didn't he advise his hearers to Dunbarn. Braithwaite or any of our race pools. Dunbarn. He was the parliament of England and some of America's outstanding men. One would presume that Dr. Grege, his work in the category of "grasshopper." HENRY F. ARNOLD Hundreds Of Hours Lost Every Day Because Chairmen Of Public Meetings Fall To Begin On Time. To the Editor: Commencement exercises and public functions are at their height. So far, I have attended some very enjoyable affairs. I have been sorry to say, lessness because of the neglect to begin on scheduled time. The audience sat sublimely in their seats, and inwardly leaned on the previous moments wanted. Our principals and teachers use a great deal of time and energy trying to get their pupils to come to some of the meetings, and by example by beginning our example on the advertised hour. Quite a stir was recently caused by a new minister closing his services on time. And we like promptness, for the comment on the new minister invariably was, Well, he begins and closes his services. If we cannot begin until nine o'clock, say nine, and begin at nine. Then one can spend the time elsewhere, and not sitting for the morning. May we now to start our affairs on time, so that our children will become punctual citizens; and the next generation, at least, will not have to suffer from this most undesirable habit. Mrs. L.

ADJUDGED BY "OPORTUNITY" AS THE BEST COLORED WEEKLY, 1925-28 Heard and Seen In Baltimore Heard and Seen In Baltimore This is June, that enchanted month when the male of the species suffers with high blood pressure and thinks it love. June, the month of deceit, when so many beautiful friendships are broken up at the altar. The month when bouquets and rice are but the peace offerings before hostilities begin. Of course, all married folks don't fight, but very few of them live to get that old. Married men live longer than single men. Bachelors haven't anybody to outlive. Men used to be able to drown their troubles but their are learning to swim too well now. June has a romantic effect on both young and old even grandma has been learning to live. Before marriage, her face lifted. Grandpup gets ambitious in the moonlight. Some people fall in love at first sight and make love for a second. Before marriage, man years for a woman, after marriage, he merely earns for her. Love comes to every woman once in her life but with some its a constant caller. Love whispers in a still voice something like asking a bootegger for a drink. A New York man has opened a school for husbands. Some men can think up excuses without attending a class. More men have lost their heads by moonlight or by moonshine. Marriage is not a proposition it takes grit to get married and rocks to support a wife. Marriage isn't exactly an institution, although a lot of people open a kindergarten soon after they are united. Some folks are lucky and some have their first baby before they finish building installations on their engagement ring. Children are a blessing in the home, but it's tough to be thrice as strong. This is what they mean when they say troubles never come singly. The past participle of marriage is divorce. The church is where the father gives the bride away, the court is the place where husband brings her back. They call them blushing brides because some women are as ashamed of the men they marry they can't help blushing. "Oh,ge I wish this snow was gone," Said Mr. Brown last winter. "I sit at home here all alone; Cold weather?—who has sent her?" It keeps me chained inside the house, Outside I should be going. But here I stay thru night and day, And just because it's snowing. I long for grass and roses too, And balmy southern breezes, For outside work, for pleasures too Instead of colds and sneezes. Well, Juné has come and Mr. Brown Has had his wish fulfilled.

BEOTHERLY LOVE LEIGH HUNT. Kelly Miller Says This is the age of emerging. Healthy expansion takes place by internal growth or by consolidation with other rudities of like kind. The National Benefit Life Insurance Company has not only grown through its internal jotency, but has absorbed a dozen other companies in the same field until it is not only the largest insurance company but the greatest Negro enterprise in the United States. The National Benefit Life Insurance Co., of Washington, D. C., is not only the largest of Negro businesses in the country, but the greatest of Negro business enterprise of any kind in the United States, if not in the world. Mere bigness in business, as in other undertakings, has afforded the Negro business an ambition to excel in bulk may lead to serious weaknesses. It is suicidal to swell the volume of a business beyond the demand of its customers. It has a point of diminishing returns. The National Benefit during the past twenty-eight years of its existence has grown by normal and legal means. It has been buoyed by no vain ambition to surpass its competitors merely for the sake of surpassing. As it now takes first place, it does so with energy, enterprise and initiative. Healthy expansion takes place by internal growth or by consolidation with other bodies of like kind. This is the age of merging. Great railroads and firms of arms of the railroad grew to their present dimension by absorbing hundreds of their would be competitors which could not keep the pace. The National Benefit has not only grown through the potency but has absorbed a dozen other companies in the same field. The last absorption of the Standard Life, of Atlanta, is the sensation of the Negro business world of this lusty southern competitor, whose phenomenal rise a decade or so ago evoked race-wide competition will but double volume and capacit to serve the race The augmented National Benefit now has over seventy-five million dollars of insurance between three and four million dollars of dollars. There are over one hundred agencies scattered with an operating staff of over two thousands persons. The report of 1926, which does not include the new additions, covers over one million dollars with three-fourths of a million invested in bonds and stocks. There are a million and a half dollars. Since the foundation of the company there have been over three hundred thousand of whom still survive. These figures would have taken ten years to build the insurance business a few decades ago. And yet this young giant is not only not over, it is not only grown; it is not yet of age. The field of Negro insurance has not been covered or worked to an efficient depth. This company with its wide-awake management and efficient methods and its fane and seasoned policy has been expected to expand until it seems still more startling proportions. The company has firmly been placed on the basis of old line insurances with all the safe-guards for the insured, the insurer, the esteem and good will all business must depend. demands a peek behind the curtains to see if the operations are conducted harmoniously with established principles. How can the management carry on such a gigantic enterprise successfully and safely without having learned. Like a great scientist, S. W. Rutherford, the founder and general manager has proceeded from the start on the basis of energy, honesty and a common sense. The captain of the company must have an idea and must know how to choose his assistants. Henry Ford is the best exampler of this principle. He employs experts in the industry and holds them responsible for technical procedure subject to his master purpose. This is precisely the method of the Rutherford and the manager, and the president of the company. The idea of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company was conceived in the mind of S. S. Hirsch, a man born in the fourth of a century ago. From the beginning he saw the whole scheme unfolded in his mind's eye. Beginning in the early eight years ago, he threw his whole soul and all that there was in him in the scale for the unfolding of his life. He grew up slaved and starved while nursing the infant enterprise and nurtured it with more than parental care. It grew up and a root out of dry ground. By the unnering instinct of sound business he knew that the new venture must be built up and maintained. He had the good sense to borrow from the accumulated actuarial experience and appraised the method employed and established by long usage in the business world. The management does nothing by chance. It neverapses care and vital touch with up-to-date men and measures in the field of insurance. The management Company adopts and applies any improvement in machinery or method which has been soundly designed in the world of insurance. The home office, at Washington employs one hundred, and seventy-five expert Negro men and women to manage the finance business. Where, one wonders, do they all come from? The keen managerial eye scrutinizes the Negro schools and colleges and Negro pupils in the institutions trained business talent and effor eny. The company selects the best prepared and equipped persons in business lines that can be found in the office. Even then these must be rebaptized with the spirit and genius of which the Rutherfords are the secretes. A visit to the home office impresses the visitor with neatness, order, system and dispatch that prevail throughout. Every one is tested and proved by the business world The Biggest Negro Business Legal Reserve Page - has been installed and is efficiently managed by Negro technical experts. That the business of the company must needs be efficiently coupled to the fact that its operations cover two tiy-six states and its methods and procedure is subject to unanticipated investment, inspections of any or all of these jurisdictions at any time. Prior to access incorporation of the Standard of Practice, the company mainly in the northern states where all insurance companies are most rigid regulations and scrutiny of the web and safe-guarding the public web. Is Graduate Business University We hear much now days about the need for the business college boys and girls. The National Negro Boys and girls. The National Fit Life Insurance Company is not only our premier business enterprise but is also our greatest graduate graduates from business colleges all over the country find outlet for their special preparation which is confirmed, strengthened and enriched by actual practice and experience. It may be interesting to point to the careers of the Rutherfords as an example of Negro geneology. The represent three generations of companies and enterprise. The father of S. W. Rutherford, was a slave who his own energy bought his freedom and that of his family and purchased them all a start. Mr S. W. Rutherford, the son, with one year's schooling, early exhibited the initial enterprise which resulted in the institution now under discussion. R. H. Rutheford is the son of his father in energy, spirit and purpose as well as by blood. At the age of 40 or so he has risen to the rank of general of this great establishment. Like J. D. J. Rockefeller, Jr., and Edsel Ford, the younger Rutheford has caught the full fire of the purpose of the father. If R. H. Rutheford is a chip of the old block. S. W. Rutheford is a block of the old tree. The world is running wild in Anderburgh, who has accomplished much in the man feat in the air. The Negro race is rightfully stimulated to high pride over the National Benton Company, which is the greatest Negro business enterprise on earth.

Hanner, whom we are informed, addresses Pivlis Wheatley as a rector to Langston Hughes and Cunei Cullen of the later day prominence. Between the interval of Phyllis Wheeler and Paul Lawrence Dunbar, Mr. Johnson tells us, there appeared some thirty composers of verse: the most notable among them was Francis E. W.

Frost Putty—Back Dirty The chief product of the Riviera, as was said, is pleasure, but it is as from being a bed of roses for the majesty as is London, Paris, or Atlanta. Take Nice, for instance. Approach it from the sea and you'll see modern magnificent hotels, the villas and magnificent hotels, the hills of Cimiez, and splendid promenades and gardens along the water front. Go from the rear and move along the river, built centuries ago, the narrow winding streets of old Italy, and poverty in all its manifestations. The front and back, in short, a glided mask for the rear. Nobility In Exile Watch closely also the faces of many other than the obviously down and out and you'll find much sadness. The Russians who posed in the vern, and besides many lose their fortunes at the various Casinos. There are also the broken-down aristocrats, mostly Russians who used to live in the city, who now posed in the Russian could help them, port them no longer are glad to get greriers (garres) in the rear. Oranges High The poor on the Riviera, as in many other parts of Europe, seem less affluent than the rich. Monaco of course has no taxes and they better off there. To give an example of the cost of living in Monaco along the sidewalk in Menton, buy one in the market, and the price is slightly higher than in New York. Fishing is one of the industries. Fisherwomen, dowdy, gaunt or fat, with back hair flying loose may be able to draw the nets in the morning.

And the next day with the net covering the beaching of the heavy boat. It is no "snap" for the women of the poor amid all this wealth. Superiority Of course to myself and the other tourists these poor folk are picture-que. They give color and their lorepice do the local such a comfortable feeling of superiority.

Under the head of book review Langston Hughes "Fine Clothes to the Jew" is thrown a onque or two. The reviewer asks of subject matter by saying that the "sordiness and humility in the lives of the primitive Negro do not constitute a reason why they are not fit subjects for literary criticism." Dr. Frank Cane once said in reviewing a rather repulsive novel that the author was a writer who later in our back yards and it is not necessary to hail it from the house-tops.

He was hard at work on a book on the Nerro, but what it was he would not tell. I spent several days in the town, and although we talked several days he rather retreated about his writings. "If We Must Die" McKay, it will be recalled, is the author of "Harlem Shadows," which came into considerable publicity after the riots called on Congress during the series of race riots that occurred after the war, and after reading one of the poems, "The Poem of the Poem," its spirit was that of the present generation of Negroes who had decided to suffer massacre with impunity no longer. The poem, together with a naccount of the incident, was printed in the Congressional Record. Author In Want "If We Must Die," is real the Marseillaise of the American Negro. "Harlem Shadows" cover a wide range of subjects from Lynchism to Slavery.

From Marseilles The publishers of "Harlem Shadows" are Harlem Court, Brace, of New York. My next article will be from Marseilles, the leading French seaport, and the city with the largest percentage of Negroes in Europe. I shall just tell you happily that the city is poor colored men in a white man's country, and there is a scarcity of work.

One beauty- Primary School In the graded schools the lowly primary teacher has had two batches of children since September. Most of these teachers have taken extension courses in the afternoons and some of them at night. In most of the schools there have been seven or eight parents' meetings to attend at night with out any allowance for overtime. One or two big extra-curricular activities have been put over. Most of the children have gone down to Brown's Grove and forsooth the teacher had to go too. And now in June while frantically trying to account for 52,1825 of a child, in the annual report one is being visited by parents, whom no amount of persuasion could get to parents' meetings all wanting to know now. Willie is getting along, and do you think he will pass? Yes—No If the teachers were to say yes Willie would broadcast it to the class and yearly reports and everything would go bloody, in the rush of fond mammas who "just know that Willie is as smart as that Jones box." The amazing thing about it is that no matter how many zeros you put in the numbers, the world convinced that Willie is the world's most perfect student. One would wonder why this is. If one did not know from experience, that Willie takes home all those paper bees whose wings beat so hard those which hear glorious tides. Unseasonable Weather The continued unreasonable weather has made life a little harder for some teachers also. Fond mammals in the winter have been taking their offspring up in wool packs the winter. Not until convinced that summer has come will they remove them. You can imagine the stress of this task days not so cool. Usually they are removed by May but this year they have gone over into June.

BUTTER BUTTER BUTTER Butter and Cottage Cheese YE YOUNGER FOLK Annual Flowers Ps. ELSIE OWENS Annual flowers are those flowers which are planted, bloom and die in one season. Gorgeous effects can be achieved in the border by the use of annuals. Many plants will bloom from the time of planting the seed. The beginner often finds it quite a problem deciding what to plant. The tendency is to plant a few very small plants in everywhere. There are so many varieties that we can have a wealth of beauty - right at our door. For an edging plant for borders, Sloane's is a less stressed. It blooms all summer until frost and is very sweetly scented. Dusty Milter is another excellent edging plant. Its leaves are a soft gray and blend well with the foliage. Last year I had a border that was a glowing mass of color in late summer. In the back of the border were red Cannas, next a row of Scarlet Sage and the edging was Dill. Martin Marigolds are old favorites of easy culture. They grow from eighteen inches to three feet high. They are also cut flowers but cut flowers from July until frost. Zinnias are one of the most brilliant annuals, and excellent for cut flowers. The seeds can be planted now and will bloom in from sx to For outdoor decoration the Petunia is quite effective. It is excellent for porch and patio and is hardy in the whole season until frost. Nasturtiums are easily grown. All they need is fairly well drained. Their gorgeous color will be a bright spot in the border all summer. Bachelors Button is another free-blooming petunia that attracts the flowering excellent for cutting. The Aster is an important late summer and fall flower. Asters will grow beautiful flowers are grown in rich soil, soil enriched with borneal or some other good fertilizer. Wash ashes are used to fertilize the plants. The plants should be from nine to twelve inches apart. LETTER BOX LETTER BOX Dear Aunt Ray: I am writing a short letter to let you know what I am going to do after school closes.

THE BOY AND THE APPLES THE BOY who owned a fine apple tree orchard found a rude boy upon a branch of one of the orchards, and ordered the boy to come down he only told him plainly, "You are the old man; then I will fetch you down." So he pulled up some turtles of grass. But it only made the saucy boy laugh to think that the old man should pretend to be such light weapon "Well, well," said the old man, "if neither words nor grass will do, I must try what virtue there is in stones."

He built a glowing fire, dressed the 'possum, pared and split the sweet potatoes, and pretty soon he had the "possum an" tatters in the oven. While the meal was cooking Uncle Ned amused himself with his favorite old banjo. When the 'possum had been baked brown and crisp he took it out of the oven and set it on the hearth to give it time to cool. Mentally congratulating himself upon the glorious repast he thought soon to enjoy, he sat silently for awhile in the old armchair, but presently he was snugly wrapped in the arms of "tired nature's sweet restorer-blamy sleep." It happened that two young fellows who were pretty well acquainted with Uncle Ned's habits had been stealthily watching about the house waiting this particular chance. As soon as they were convinced that the old man was safe in the arms of Morpheus, they crept into the house and hurriedly helped themselves to Uncle Ned's supper, including even the coffee and bread. When they finished the hasty meal, by way of attempting to cover up their tracks, they smeared Uncle Ned's hands and mouth with the "possum gravy and then beat a retreat. After a time Uncle Ned aroused from peaceful slumber. It is needless to say that he had dreamed of dividing down to inspect the viands, when lo and behold, the hearth was empty! Uncle Ned sted siege-well, "Well," said he finally, "must a 'at dots; pomsum; I must a 'at dat 'pomsum in my sleep!" He looked at him. They were gagged, not smelt his hands. As he did so, he said: "Dat smells like 'possum greasel' she must 'a' et 'd' possum." she must "a et dat "possum," He discovered grease on his lips. Out went his tongue. He said "like "possum grease," he said. He got up. He looked about the house. There was no sign in the interior. He sat on the seat, and giving up all for lost, he said: "Well, if I did eat dat "possum, hit sets light on my aperite dan any "possum I evah et befou." Teacher-Wille, do you believe the devil will get us if we naughty? he said, "I know that we will get the devil if we're found out.

FITZGERALD (11) "Selecting One's Business Career" In years gone by the system of apprenticeship generally obtained Boys were bound out to some business or trade for a term of years sufficient to give them a pretty comprehensive knowledge of its workings. Did this was without any consideration being given to the likes or dislikes of the apprentice. While in a number of cases this worked out all right and produced a number of fairly efficient mechanics or clerks, yet in probably many more cases it was not so. Some of the workers, who struggled on making a bare living when, had they been permitted to choose their calling, might have made a Life. The educators of the present day, we are told, are seeking to avoid such disasters as they call for, by their call vocational guidance and following it up with vocational training. This, the ordinary business man understands to mean that the modern teacher seeks to find out the student's bent of mind and then gives that type of training that will make his give expression to his latent powers, which he discovered. This is as it should be for it is of the utmost importance that one should engage in a business that makes its strongest appeal to his inclinations and interests. It is only in such a business that one will meet with his greatest success. This business made a wise choice of one's business and came into play those qualities previously mentioned as being necessary if one is to have any worthwhile success. Preparation being assumed, we come next to perseverance, which has by some one been described as stick-to-fitness. This is a most necessary for this. We do not well prepared one may be unless he persevere there is no possibility of his succeeding. For success is never the product of a day or week or even a year, though it may appear so often to the superficial observer. To the possession of these qualities must be added honesty, reliability, courtesy, courage, hard work and cheerfulness. This last named quality will be most helpful in enabling one to withstand the rebuffs, discouragements, oppositions, trials and tensions that are sure to be met with in the pursuit of any business career. Reiterating what has been said, means select for a business career one that appeals strongly your tastes and for which you have made adequate preparation and then drive ahead with all the power you possess, then nothing can permanently impede your progress.

With this thought in view, he invited a number of his friends around Safturd night and luck broke nicely for him, until one of the members, a friend had speaking suspicion that all was not on the level, informed the police that the game was in progress. In the wee hours of the morning, a patrol wagon backed up at the door and took Stewart and his friends to the northwestern. Your Honor, said Stewart, "I have been out of work for a month and I'm not a gambling man. but I just had to have some money to some bills. I didn't mean any harm. Your Honor. I just wanted to keep from being put out of my house." "about a little thing like that. I won't send any collectors to your house and I won't put you out in the city and costs.

Jones suddenly got up and left the restaurant to attend his car, which he had parked a short distance away. During his absence, his pal devoured the ham which he believed was tasty for it, believing Jones to have paid the owner. An argument started, in which Johnson was ordered from the place. Jones, hearing the commotion, rushed in and assaulted the proprietor, knocking him out. "Your Honor," said Jones in the Northwestern. It paid for that ham "That may be true," said the judge, "but this did not give you the privilege of beating up the owner. This will cost you $23 and costs."

A slight shock, a bump against the curb or over a run may be other causes for such trouble. Too high a temperature will dry out the rubber in tires, while too low will stiffen it. Plan Safety for Night Driving There is always danger of accidents at night if the lighting equipment is not in good condition. Lights should be examined and tested before every trip to see that they are in good condition. Extra bulbs should be carried. Headlights should be kept adjusted so that glaring light does not interfere with other users of the highway and so that sufficient driving light is obtained for revealing persons or objects on the road. Most headlights need adjustment at least once a month. It is difficult to use a car in warm months if there is still a strong antifreeze mixture in the radiator. Vibration flaring The instrument a car can receive is to drive it over a road of constant roughness and at a speed which causes the bumping of the vehicle to match the period of vibration of the springs. Constant vibrations are worse than over normal wrenchings. Work have with everything on the car and is one of the most severe factory tests for machines. An extra pair of spring clips will be found useful on a trip to make a temporary repair to a broken spring. Merely racing the engine is no positive proof of its working workability. The power plant must be made to pull the car before a real test can be made. To Observe Saiem Day Sun. BOSTON. — Sunday, June 19. will be celebrated as Salem Race Day in honor of Peter Salem.
