C. — Caesar R. B, Blake, Jr., Charlotte, N. C., Imperial Potentate, Noble Order of the Mystic Shrine here. Paul Finley Wilson did right to the Elks' Convention. He said he had been an Elk for 18 years. "The (New York) 'Grattan Law' is on the statute books and, personally I believe in the enforcement of all laws! This law is" is a permanent injunction against Negro Elks doing anything that would cause the public to believe that they are Elks, and there is no assurance that this law will not be enforced. Mr. Blake stated further that "responsibility, in my opinion for vacating the 'Grattan Law' should rest upon the Grand Lodge of Elks instead of upon the Elks of New York state. This Grattan Law can be pleaded in any state in the Union against colored Elks. If the white Elks so see fit to do so." Our organization of the Mystic Shrine has been recently granted a writ of certiorari by the U.S. Supreme Court in what is commonly known as the "Houston, Texas, case". The decision of the Supreme Court of Texas was just as inquisitors as is this Grattan Law of New York state. We are fighting our Shrine cases to a finish, just as the Knights of Pythias did, and I am surprised that our Order of Elks has not long ago made a test case of the Grattan Law in the courts.

Mud In Homes NATCHEZ, MISS. (ANP.) — We board the three car Missouri Pacific train: one a mail and baggage car with a colored mail clerk, one a white coach, and the other regularly a whole "Jim Crow" car, but today half filled with whites, who used it as a smoker, leaving only a half section for colored folk, with but one toilet for men and women. We asked the gruff genial conductor, "To Monroe, La," was the reply, "What you going to do that?" was the next direction, and as we duck it by not answering, we were at the high water maybe. Waal, you'll see plenty of it — you might have some boats or a boat. "Toot, Missouri," we move slowly toward the Mississippi river where the entire little train is run into a ferry and conveved across to Louisiana shore. Numerous stations and stoppages came as the train ran through the flood water one to two feet high on either side as far the eye could see. The colored lok in the Jim Crow Car were for the most part refuges returning home or who had come here to camps to see how their families camped, to see how their families every few miles and a dozen more took their places. At Vidalia. Willey Hight, bright hustling agent of a life insurance company, boarded the train. He was on his way to Perrand, one of the four towns in which his large collection scattered over.

Marshall and Wayman Wilkerson, conspired to change the place of meeting from New York City. **Offices Lucrative** The basis for this conspiracy, the plaintiffs alleged, was the lucrative nature of the grand lodge officers. These officers, the plaintiffs said, were determined that nothing should transpire which would them to lose their respective positions. Because of the high handed manner in which they had administered the affairs of the grand lodge, it was decided that the opposition of various subordinate lodges in New York City and fearing their chances of being re-elected in the new lodge, to prevent the convention from taking place in New York City. In their answer the defendants contended that the selection of New York Elks for the next meeting of the Grand Council was conditioned upon the promise of Dr. Oliver that New York Elks would have the Gratian law repealed and the injunction abolished. The charge of conspiracy in order to continue present grand lodge officers in office was denied. White Attorneys The plaintiffs were represented by two white attorneys, A. T. Schenck, City, O.

LET THE AFRO FOLLOW YOU Tom Paine Urged Anti- Slavery Plank In The Independence Declaration (From Tom Paine's . . . biography) As Congress was preparing its Declaration of Independence in 1776, Thomas Paine begged, " forget not the hapless African." "Men held in bondage," he argued, "having no prospect before them when they lay their trust their sorrows and their hopes, have no reasonable inducement to render their services to society." The society which enslaved them must inevitably suffer, for nations no less than ours have done. "How just, how suitable to our crime is the punishment with which Providence threatens us? We enslaved multitudes and shed much innocent blood, we are bound with the same." Many of the wisest leaders, including Washington and Jefferson, were alive to the menace of slavery; the latter was especially outspoken. Thomas writes to Jefferson in Paris: Southforks "It got tougher to the soul that there should be such just grounds for your apprehensions respecting the irritation that will be produced by your own actions, by which you have said of slavery. However, I would not have you discouraged. This is a cancer we must get it under control," he said. "Must must must be wiped out. If it cannot be done by religion, reason, and philosophy, confident I am sure that I am not afraid of this than of the Algerian piracles, or the jealousy entertained of us by the European power." The eloquence of "Mad Tom," as Paine was sometimes called, went unheeded. Penny wise and poundless. The politicians refused to yield ground. The sore which Paine vainly tried to cure by gentler treatment was finally cured. Only after copious bloodletting. Within a month after the publication of his first assay on slavery, the Quakers moved to Philadelphia, and a few months later the Quakers issued an Emancipation letter that desired to retain membership in that Society. Lincoln averred that he never tired of reading the works of Thomas Paine by his admirers, among that it was he who first proposed the abolition of slavery. In Pennsylvania, William Penn had a clause looking toward gradual abolition. In 1866 the German Quakers of that province made the first group protest against chattel slavery, declaring that as it was not doing to others in the practice of holding men in bondage was anti-Christian.

Page Four FIRST NEW FITE LOOMS IN 1ST.BAPTIST CHURCH Ousting Of Pastor Green Branded As Illegal By Attorney MOB VIOLENCE IS AVERTED ON SUNDAY Patrolmen Keep Down Disturbance When Pastor Is Barred From Church That the difficulties between the pastor of the First Baptist Church and his deacon board all far from settled may result in a renewal of the litigation with more bitterness than was evidenced in the recent court fight was made known by Attorneys for both factions this week. Acting upon the decision banded down by Judge B. H. in which he sovereign and that any action taken at a regularly called meeting of the church was final, the results of the vote noted the pastor of the Albert J. Green out Thursday night, declaring the pulpit vacant. Action Illegal To carry out their aims further, the deacons obtained an injunction restraining the pastor from entering the pulpit or interfering in church service, and also obtained an injunction against the trustee board, restraining them from permitting any but the regular pastor to enter the church. George the attorney for the court declared that the ruling of the court did not imply that the church could oust the pastor in the manner used because there was a charter provision governing the way the church should be discharged. He branded the action illegal. Pastor Still In According to Mr. Evans, the pastor can only be put out by the method stipulated in the charter which provides that he shall be given notice that such action is to be considered a particular meeting and he must be given an opportunity to defend himself. The tenure of office of the pastor is for life and he can only be ousted for life or he can give contrary to the belief of the church or for conduct unbecoming a minister. No such provision regulated the appointment and discharging of deacons, he pointed out. In accordance with this rule are taken the pastor is still in. Mr. Evans Streets Crowded Anticipating trouble, people from the surrounding neighborhood packed the streets about the church Sunday morning, the men and women remained in his car on the outside but made no attempt to enter the church. The deacons with their followers took care of the church and held prayer service. The choir refused to take their customary places and met with their badges on the inside of their coats refusing to perform their duties. Attorney Barred Excitement was rife when Mr. Evans appeared on the scene and declared that the pastor had gone to the church because the process server had not been able to serve the papers upon him. The deacons, however, refused to permit either Mr. Evans or the pastor to attend. A lieutenant and six officers from the Northeastern patrolled the streets and kept down demonstration among the restless crowds which did not allow until the pastor finally drove away. Max Close Church Plans are already on foot for the staging of the next election and campaigning equal to that of the bitterest fight is being carried on three days. Members who have not been to church for ten years are being recruited to vote in the next church meeting. In the meantime opposing attorneys are preparing briefs and filings petitions that may close the doors of the church to everybody for more than a year. --- Youngest Catholic Bishop MIAMI, Fla.—Father E.

"Now debt is common among us all, and we all get in debt to some person, or a bad man, as a rascal, or a decipher simply because he has a debt claim against him. In the courts, the usual practice in our courts is as in other countries, to summons the defendant to appear for a warrant of arrest, and attachment is only resorted to when there is fear or apprehension the defendant is unresolved or that he is running to escape, or to evade the law. "But when we take into consideration the person herein charged that the person is a citizen, and a Christian gentleman of high standing in church and state; and that he has established a good character, and that his Monrovia College is an honored monument to his name and to his Christian zeal and educational efficiency; that he tells me so that Liberian men so has that unmindful of their Christian obligations, so uncharitable, and so low that they have no respect for the wrist of arrest, and attachment against a man of the Christian standing and educational influence of Bishon Brooks, such men are danish Christians, and community. "The better class of Monrovia people are simply astounded at what seems to be tremendous judiciary aid, honesty in practice.

A boarding club was organized and a student would have to eat at the rationation and buying of food. If he could not make a few cents on the $2.50 paid him by each boarder, he would be ousted from the position at the boarding club. If he did not give the food out carefully, he would have to almost starve the bunch for two or three weeks.

In speaking before the Epworth League and Sunday School convention of the Philadelphia District, at Delair, N. J. Dr. A. J. M.ATCH, field secretary, the Epworth League $88,000 is needed immediately to free the college of debt and begin the $100,000 dormitory for men. Dr. Mitchell urged the subscribers to pay their pledges made to the Epworth League for resolutions requesting the trustees to ask for an extension of time from the general education board. Dr. Mitchell announced the date of 15th Inclusive, a. Mgr. College much money. If a fellow spent his 10 weeks of vacation on a Maryland farm he could get $15.80 a month without board. If he could get a state or New Jersey could earn $23 a month, and only $9.50 if he tried his luck in Georgia. Wages were approximately $12 per centage, but industries were more scarce. A fellow who went to school with the determined idea of getting learning for purely commercial purposes was looked upon as a good candidate to take any of the courses, however primary, intended for preachers he had to bring a certificate to this effect: We the members of the Quartermaster of... Station, or circuit) do hereby certify that Bro. .. is, in our judgement, called of God to the work of the ministry, recommend him as a suitable person to be received as a student in Centenary Biblical Institute. When the brother got the certificate from the church he could enter school and be relieved of paying for tuition, books, or any other incidental materials were told that they would have to "find their board and clothing." If a collegian was disposed to be "dicty" enough to have his laundry doubled could he be denied the dollar month. Somebody had to do the jankor work and the Romeo who did not wield the broom had to pay $1.50 a year or 50c a term for the job. We find that in return for such fabulous investments the primary student could get courses in arithmetic, grammar, catechism of the Methodist Church, and manhood as he appeared to require and plenty of declamation and debate. MORE advanced student courses running from all the Latin and Greek classes to natural science. In 1877, when the first class was gardened, the running expenses of a college were only $4,800. Michigan College's expenses now exceed that a hundred times and those of Howard and Lincoln are greater. Yep, those were grand and gloriously cheap. But it was just as hard then for collegians to "find their board and clothing" then as it is to gather up $550 to $500 now in three months. N. C.

NO DISCUSSION OF "EVOLUTION" Baptist Pastors Shut Off Discussion Following Paper of Dr. A. S. Phillips BIBLE AND EVOLUTION REGARDED IN HARMONY Evolution is a series of acts, and discoveries and the Bible is the first source of evolution, declared the Rev. A. S. Phillips, in reading a paper on "Evolution of Science," at the Baptist Ministers' Conference, Monday. One may accept the common interpretation of the Bible, or the view of evolution and many enigmatic Christians. In either case God is the creator. The Bible is the book of true science, and there are many in imony. The Bible contains philosophy, psychology, astronomy, botany, theology and physiology. Evolution of Eden changed into guilt judgment, changed from gathering fruit to earning his living by the sweat of his brow. The book is married that there be no discussion of the paper and the essayist be tendered thanks. Dr. D. E. over stated he felt it was not fair to make such a motion because some people in the paper contrary to God's word. A discussion arose as to the disposition of money for the flood supply and the need to indent, told the members that the money should be sent at once to those suffering people. The Rev. W. Winston made the point that Rev. W. D. Bryant and Elliott be a committee and see that the money be placed in the right channel and sent at once. The motion was so argued, that this motion was under the direction of the executive board of the convention. The money is in the hands of the Rev. A. J. Greene, treasurer of the convention. A special meeting of the board was called to decide the matter. The Rev. D. E. Over stated that he had been in or near the flood灾区, friends, and there is no other channel through which the money should go but through the Red Cross. The Union Baptist Church has raised a $300,000 will turn over to the Red Cross. NO HI-STUDENT LIST AT TOWSON TOWSON. — The list of Baltimore County grammar school graduates eligible to enter Baltimore City High School, Sgt. Supt. Clarence Cooper told the AFO. Wednesday. An examination for grammar school students used the office of the county board of education last Thursday. Those certified will have their tuition paid by the county. Parents protested the examination and the county school grads are entitled to enter some high school at the county's expense as is the case with white children. Rev. E. A. Queen, who insisted on this policy, was asked to the superintendent. Baltimore County has no high school for colored children. Pastor Queen told the AFO today, "I was asked the advice to Mr. Cooper and do not think I was ugly. I simply asked a few plain questions bearing on the question for which one committee met. Mr. Cooper met the taxpayers called for Mr. Cooper. For instance, Mr. Cooper said that the taxpayers, especially the big taxpayers, were exposed to providing high school training for colored children of the county. "He also stated that the School Board did not recognize an junior school and that the School Board agreed to pay only for high school training. The county has only a seven grade school system and only seven grade school system for colored children. "The colored people pay taxes." The colored people were entitled to high school facilities. "I consider that Mr. Cooper's position with regard to colored children makes any self-respecting race leader." Madame Mama Highlander, Golden Brown Chemical Co. Memphis, Tenn.

Following the action taken in these conferences the amended and approved plan is to then go on to award an annual conference quarterly and local churches in the two church organizations for approval or rejection.

The territorial scope of the organization is world-wide, the United States, the Americas, Africa and the Islands of the Sea.

WASHINGTON of the BYT. WINANS, MD. Then Jesus answered saying, "Go your way and tell John what thing you have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the blind see, the blind see, the lame walk, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached. And blessed is he who is not offended in me." Luke 7:22. The Baptist, though a cousin of Jesus Christ had in all probability never seen him, till Christ appeared and saw him. The Jordan, that memorable day he was baptizing at Bethaba. And indeed we are not sure John saw very much of him. The whole country side had been stirred by John's preaching and his call to repentance, and very naturally all sorts of obvious arose as to whom he might Many thought he must be some of the old prophets who has arisen from the dead. others thought he might be a prophet of the earth, of by the prophets and indeed there was a diversity of opinions as to his indentity. In the endeavor to satisfy their curiosity, they began to question him. Are you Moses? No. Are you a prophet? Are you a saint? No. Who are you? You manner is different from other men and for tainment you wear simply a camel hide with a leather strap around the neck. Do you eat and drink like other men. No. When I am hungry, I eat locusts, when I am thirsty, I dring honey. Well who are you? I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness. "Preserve the Lord and make his paths straight." It is no wonder that the people had become all astir at this man's confession. He was so confessed that he believed John was a messenger sent from God. John, upon hearing this, personally begged action. John was bold enough to tell Herod that if he believed him to be God's messenger and forerunner of Jesus, he should live his sister-in-law out and stop living in adultery. This got for John. Herod's wrath and indignation and finally his death. Page Five CATION CHERS Curne, Hilda Lee Gray, Christine P. Eleanor Harde, Zolma A.

SERMON After John was put in prison he sent two of his disciples to Jesus with this message: "Art thou Christ, Master did not reply to the messengers at once, but proceeded to gather about him all sorts of impotent and idiotic men, and turned to the messengers. He said now you go back and tell John the things which you have seen and heard and blessed is he who is not offended. Two all important utterances, "The poor have the gospel preached to them and blessed is he who is not offended. This was indeed the beginning of a new era in the world; never before was the gospel preached to the poor, and the poor was supposed to be right. The kindness was new to them. The rich Pharisee had said, "This people which knoweth not the law are accursed, this ignorance is preached to the saken of God and doomed to destruction." Religion had become an art, and here we put here we behold Him who has been preached to the poor, opening his communion, taking the poor into his heart, adopting them as his clients, inaugurating them to the privileges of his kindness. We notice that the Master did not answer in words, but he performed a series of miracles, and left the deeds that we cannot be followers of Christ alone but we must prove our words by our deeds. The word Christians munnes nothing more than, like Christ, and at all of ourselves but for others, not concerned about words, but andulous about the performance of deeds which will promote the welfare of our fellowship of Christ on earth. Such was Jesus' reply to Jno. and you can behold it in an emblem of His mode of an emblem of the world's great question respecting the Lord's mission to he John's disciples, at the close of his miraculous display. Go, tell John the things which you have both seen and heard. At the close of his disciples, "Go, ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, and that we cannot always, even to the end of the world. all the earth keep silent before Him.

Dike will play for the dance fans. The racer dip has now been put into operation and thrill seekers will have another device for setting an alarm, which will control on their rides to Wonderland.

Boys Spend 3 Days At Brown's Grove Seventeen boys of the Sharp St. Community House under the supervision of Messrs Sheildon, Keswick, three days of camping at Brown's Grove last week Captain George Brown was host to the little fellows. They were given the privilege of using gite summer cottage at Brown's Grove, the first of the groups of young people who will be the guests of captain Brown during the summer. Miss Myrtle Garden, executive secretary of the community house is forming plans for many activities this summer. The daily vacation Bible School will open in then earl nurt to provide wholesome recreation for the children. HOUSES for SA.I.E—Page 19 DUNBAR The Independence Day special aat the Dunbar will be "Going Crooked," an underworld drama, according to management Tuesday. Bessie Love will play the title role and she will be supported by Oscar Short and a star cast. The fact that it does pay to "go straight" is clearer out as the moral of this photoplay. Tuesday, July 5 is set for the offering of "Perch of the Devil," starring the young actress. The screen play is a satiring satire on the wickedness of those who sit in high places in society. Lon Chaney, he scores of successes and of thousands of film awards. He offers a trail of yearning maledicts behind, he loses heart and hand to a little, shy hometown girl. A quick glance at these offerings will readily show that the man has adopted a better class picture policy. REGENT The Regent management has secured one of the biggest screen productions of the season. "The Magician," a play that was filmed on the locations described by the author in the original script. It is produced by Rex Ingram, who will be remembered as the producer of "Mare Nostrum" and the "Four Horsemen." Alice Terry does the leading role and she is supported by a cast of German and French actors. Among the splendid scenes are the Latin Quarters of Paris, The Cathedral of Notre Dame, Monte Carlo, parts of Switzerland and many other European scenes. The story of the "Magician" is that of a girl who is caught between the forces of a Magician and a young surgeon whom she loves and who has saved her from being a helpless cripple. The delicate subject is skillfully handled and developed into a romantic drama. Regent patrons are also manifesting much interest in "Michael Strozhoff," another super production book for the near future. It is said that there are more than 5,000 Russian horsemen in one of its grippin' scenes. Besides showing the frozen steppes of Russia it gives one a glimpse into the harems of the East with their sensuous dances and love laden nights. CAREY Surrounded by an excellent cast and featured in one of the most thrilling of Western stories, Tom Mix in "Hard Bolted." Tom finds in his experiences as Jeff Bayton, that crooks are just crooks whether encountered in the Park. In this particular case, the bad men are New York gun artists, headed by one Diamond Saddle, and they are bent upon mischief in the Park. In the course of the action, Tom encountered them planning a little haul which is successful, would bring to their strong boxes some of the money they earned at the famous Bolling Springs, where Abiella Gregg rules with an iron hand. Just how Tom and Tony working "bull" O'Donnell and a homely little dog, enlist the interest of the beautiful Marjorie Gregg, engineer a starting rescue, and land the cripples behind bars, develop into a great of rare beauty and dramatic action. "Syncopating Sue," will be the specialty offering for July 5. Presents 18 Pupils In Annual Recital Eighteen piano and voice pupils were presented in the first annual recital of Miss Evangeline P.

Fannie Hendrickson, slender, bash-ful girl who joined "How Come?" while it was on Broadway in 1935, got more than a promotion from the chorus ranks. She obtained the heart of Eddie Hunter, leader of the show and ace of the burlesque comedians. The wistful girl who left a job as cutter in a Manhattan shirtwist factory to sing and dance before the spotlights, met Hunter when she joined the show and played the black-jewel singing poetry between acts. Hunter allowed a reporter to read some of them when interviewed at his hotel in Baltimore last week, but considers them too personal for publication. Miss Hendrickson, who is one of the few native New York artists, had her first stage experience in Miller and Lyles Shimansky in 1923. As a Catholic in religion an her department off stage is characterized by the quiet, refined air that comes from years of training in religious institutions. While on the stage she dances and sings with forceful carmestiness and vivacity, she indicates another character when she reaches the darkened wines. Although possessed with a strong or compelling voice, her song specialties are vibrant with an indescribable quality that has made her a soubrette for the present "How to" or "a-11-44", as it is now called. While receiving her education in New York, Miss Hendrickson was an ardent fan of all athletics participated in by girls. She says that the sports almost impossible. The performer must often remain in the theatre until midnight, there are rehearsals many mornings. Many other things keep the actor from sports, but as she puts it, "it is all in the feet and the hands, and the work that offers me a career." BY WALET L. REEVES, JR. "Polks will be allowed to riggle, but not wiggle in public" was the slogan in Kansas City, Mo., according to an article appearing in the AFRO, dated 1010. A certain welfare board ruled that "Gettum the puppy's tail" was "Walk, Walk, Walk" among the dances to be banished from local dance halls. To be exact, that was 17 years ago. But if the members of that particular board could see the sheiks and flappers of today do the "Bump to Bump," "Black Bottom," "Candi Walk," "Charleston," "Chicago Stomp" and "Balling the Jack" they would drop dead. There are the old days when you had to hold your dancing partner twelve inches from you. Today, the modern girls' slogan is "hold me tight papa" and if the latter does not respond, they ditch it. There has been talk of banning the "Charleston" and one or two other dances, but this is not the case of freedom, and the young people, old ones too, are going to dance just what they please. Fifteen years ago a dance like the "Charleston" would have closed every show on Broadway and even all the dance halls. Because to be a "Charleston" you really need South Carolina Swing without carrying their clothes halfway up around their body and just such a scene as that would have caused a miniature riot. Some modern says, bring back the old dances, but you want to be a back number or a wall flower. These present day damselflies and sheeks are not going to do anything tame. It must be "red hot", yes sire. On the streets of Baltimore and washington city, large cities are countless children doing the Bump to Bump, one of the most lascivious "hops" being staged in the dance halls. There is only one answer to the proposition and that is as the people get wise. Probably the next step to be seen in the halls this winter will be the "Adam and Eve Stradle".

REEVES, JR. ACTORS like other people have their lairs or places where they stay when visiting a city more than once and so today we turn our attention to three people, one who has retired from the footlights and the other two, who are still proclaimed "hits" on the big time that have transient houses here or the hospitals. "Lizzie" is known to the man of the legitimate stage, while her rightful name is Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson has for the last decade run one of the most well known theatrical rooming houses for actors in the East or South. Her place is located at 1126 Pennsylvania Avenue and any time a day you meet one of the "legit" and ask them where they are staying and ask them the week, the an- Unfortunately Mrs. Thmpson did not begin her stage career until after her marriage to her late husband, who was a drummer at a local theater in Kansas and a guideville doing a singing and dance bit. Edward Langford, late husband of Gazelle White was her first partner. Later she played stock at the Standard in Philadelphia, winding up her antlers before the footlights in the show of McGarr and DeGaston's "Ragtime Steps." Mr. Thompson was born in New Orleans. La. and says regarding the stage: "The theatrical game is just what you make it and if you don't worken you can make the Mobil Ala. and starten the game as a students Collectors. Hooten and Hooten Our next interviewers are Mrs. Ida Hooten and Eugene B. Hooten, known for the last 22 years from coast to coast as Hooten and Hooten. These two persons, like Mrs. Thompson, have an abhorrence to the place of noteworthy experience. At 1305 Pennsylvania Avenue you will find the Hootens when they are not on a vaudville tour. Their last appearance before the foolishness was with Ethel Waters in her musical revue and are expecting Irving Kevin C. Miller's role in "All Nations" Revue within the next few days. Mrs. Hooten new Ida Crumby is from Georgia and proud of it. She was born in Columbus and made her first stage debut in that city 22 years ago with a musical company in New York. Eugene man she married was at that time co-owner of the "Georgia Strutters." She says she remembers well her salary of $5 for the week's work and how over joyous she was. In team with her band after she broke up she did vaudville and stuck to that until Ethel Waters company last winter. Mrs. Hooten says that the theatrical game is one of the best fields for the young colored men and women. However, in the olden days the actors were seasoned and there was no smite stage; a stage was 50% off if it smite. Today, you could of qualifications actors who could not have looked in the wings getting a chance and then do not make good. As I see, if the colored stage is on a chalkboard, oldimmers or H. D. Hudley, Greenlee, Dravton, Black Pattie, Tutt Whitney and score of others who helped make the game interesting and noteworthy. Euene Hooten was also born in Columbus, Ga., but began his foot- light days 35 years ago in a company called a "Bunch of Black Birds" and the cast also included "Ma" Rainey.

So much has been written about the scapegoat believing the Negro and making him appear as the ignorant, lazy, crap-loving buffoon of the ante bellum days, that it is intended this movement shall offset that impression, and the general public will realize that there is much beauty, art, culture and genius in the Negro race of America. The book was produced before a large and enthusiastic audience at the Dunbar High School February 3. Two of the plays, "Compromise" and "The House of Sham" were written by Willis Richardson, of Washington, and "The Maker of Dreams" was written by Oliphant Downs. On May 7th at the Armstrong High School Auditorium the Kriwgna presented a mortgaged play by Native American Willis Richardson and "Foreign Mail," a crisis prize play by Eulalie Spence. Mr. Willis Richardson, a member of the Krigwa Guild, has attained considerable fame among Negro writers as a playwright. He, perhaps, is more widely known by "The Chip Woman's Fortune," which was played in conjunction with "Salome" as a curtain raiser of Bendy's opportunity and Crisis prizes, which prizes were offered Negro playwrights for the artistic portrayal of Negro life. The Krigwa organization is sponsored by the Literature Lovers of Washington, and is under the direction of the following officers: Mrs. Carrie Williams Clifford, president; Mrs. Amanda Gray Hilley, treasurer; Mrs. Willis Richardson, secretary; corresponding secretary. During the summer months there will be many plays reviewed, with the idea of bringing to the public a live and interesting schedule of artistic endeavor for the coming season. CAPT. BROWN HOST TO 500 KIDDIES Saturday Excursionists Take To Bathing, Fishing And Boating at Brown's Grove Capt. George Brown was host to more than 500 bodies of Roostertown public school and their parents and friends on an excursion to Brown's Grove, Saturday afternoon. Despite the fact that the treat was especially intended for the pupils, the grown-ups made up nearly one fourth of the excursionists. Leaving the foot of Broadway at 2:30, the party steamed down to the Mecca of Baltimore pleasure seakers and the priests of the park and the cool bay breezes until nearly six o'clock. Fishing, boating and bathing parties were more in evidence than at possibly any other excursion of the season. The row boats and fishing dock did a business that was comparable with some of the rides in the grove. Stain Brown's steamer Favorite is the busiest excursion boat playing the Chesapeake, being engaged for more than 250 night and day trips by September 1.

MCCULLOM'S WEEKLY REVIEW BY OBIE McCOLLOM Happy Children? Feodor Challapin, world renowned Russian singer of folk songs and grand opera star, says in a copyrighted article on the history of his life in the Baltimore Sun: "Negro musical shows are another extraordinary American touch. Seeing a number of them, I was intrigued by the singing and dancing, but by the spontaneous attitude of those on the stage toward their work—an attitude I believed possible only with happy children. an I myself possessed when I was 15 Mr. Challapin put himself in the place of the audience and only saw on and interpreted only what was shown on the stage. He possibly knows nothing about the problems of salary, agents' fees, providing for parents and the thousand other difficulties which perplex actors in their dressing rooms, but are cast aside when the call comes to get before the lights. He does not know that many of the happy, childish actors (Brin C. Miller or "Doc Straine (for instances) are capitalists Nope, the "Rooshian" is wrong. Negro theatricals may be considered as juvenile when we consider when the future development of boys most of the time done by seri- men and women who are concerned with making a living. "He Ain't No Count" About the time we were getting ready to placard the town with Josephine Baker photos, get a warship for her to come up Harlem rivers and take her out to the city. Hills to the east press knocked the stills from under our dreamcastle by announcing that her husband is just a plain Italian clerk, and later that she is not married at all. Josephine Baker is a great person whether she is the honor in a marriage into nobility would be that people would point to the groom and say: "There goes Josephine Baker's husband." Counts are more numerous than successes like the brown dancer. When she is to the help of idol of Paris, the Mecca of pleasure seekers, her race and country should be glad to acclaim her. If she failed to marry a count, she has at least obtained $1000 publicity and has been a part of the city from Lindbergh. And she still has a job at the "Folies Bergere." Patronizing Your Own We publish here excerpts from a letter by James E. Miller, director of the Community Center Band, of Washington. Prof. Miller is harsh in his criticism of President Obama's Marine Band at the commencement exercises. Whether the band came as the choice of the school, at the suggestion of the Department of the Interior, or as a political compliment to government officials, the band can say. Professor Miller says in part: "Why was the Marine Band's Orchestra in preference to The Washington Civic Concert Orchestra: or the Community Civic Centers Band, two organizations composing of these white musicians add to the value of the graduates' diplomas? Will these graduates he allowed to nurse in the white hospitals side by side with whites because the Marine Band's Orchestra played when they gradu- "Professor Howard needs no introduction. His work as a musician is known from coast to coast and even across the seas. The Washington Civic Concert Orchestra showed its musical skill in accompanying the S. Coleridge-Taylor Society in its recollection of "The Washington." The Community Civic Center Band under the leadership of Professor James E. Miller has rendered valuable service in this community. This band has played concerts in the public parks for seven years. They have accompanied the American Lions to Arlington on Memorial Day for five years, he played at a fair held the Sacred Heart Church at Walter Reed and the Tuberculosis Hospitals and the District Jail. This band gave a concert for the student body of Howard University a few years ago, played for graduation of Dunbar High School in year and are engaged in their services at the Dunbar and Miner Normal Schools graduating exercises this "We are repeatedly criticized for not having a concert orchestra or band, but how can we have a concert without the hearty cooperation of the learned people of our race?

The scene is that of an Indian trail on the frontier in the early days.

The bit is something new in its entirety and received encore after encore. The most instantiated entertainer is the four Nigerian entertainers composed of four Japanese melody boys. To tell what the Aslans did with those stringed instruments is impossible, but they almost broke up the show. They are two Arabian acrobats, a jugler and two white girls who are trapzee artists.

Shows Many Promising Possibilities (EVA A. JESSYE) In reply to the above query, a fellow referring to the above attraction at the Athletic club this week has been constrained to say, "Much encouraged" True, the show needs solidity, a snapping into position and a few good dancers, but on the whole it is a million strides beyond its predecessors. Beunos Noches. The costumes are good, now and showy, but low for the same of the same, like for everything, clashing in color scheme, as well as vagueness of atmosphere. Dainty dresses, elaborate gowns seemed sadly out of place in stiff, unromantic walls of an ordinary hotel, if you understand what I mean. The chorus has greatly improved but will never be a sensation unless you are some informant, or some replacement as well. Bowlegs, knuck-knees and excessive height simply do not appeal, even to a blind man. The best part of the performance was a skit done by Sidney Easton, the incomparable, and John H. Brady, "matchel-bawn" whistler of the Blues. Easton got off some new jokes and songs which smacked of home manufacture, knowing his ability in that line. The popular could inappropriately be called the "Gentleman of the Foollights." He is one performer praised alike by friend and foe without reserve as being the finest kind of a clean, square chap. This reputation accounts in part for the billing of the show. Easton, according to publicity, is the star — yet does not have enough to do when it is a loss. It is the character that Pollock. Inc. will survive the attendant losses at the Alhambra and finally reach the goal of first class production toward which they are now gaining ground. Ollie Burgoyne, oriental dancer, Verwayne, and Leigh Whipwer were noted also in the cast. Johnson To Tour BOSTON, Mass.

ARNOLD NASHVILLE, Tenn.—Being of an optimistic nature, I do not see where any one gets any pleasure out of "knocking at the window" might in time become a big success. I have seen but few colored picture, but those that I have seen screened here in my hometown, Nashville. I have found to be quite praiseworthy. One of the pictures I recall was "THE FIGHTING DEAGON" "Tiger" Flowers. This picture was screened at the Lincoln Theatre. In the production of what the producers style box-office successes, I believe in letting the public be the judge. Present day picture products are better better. More money is being spent in order that the pictures turned out might be rightfully styled as feature attractions. That is what the people really look for. Many of America's foremost picture corporations are utilizing the services of the colored actor and actress.

In another production I had the chance of viewing some of the artistic acting of Miss Evelyn Preer, one of the most gifted among the present day actresses. The thrills went the limit and it drew well at the box-office. Others I had witnessed did the same thing. Frankly stating, I do no see why the colored pictures cannot succeed the same as the white ones are doing. Many dollars have been thrown away, wasted I might say. AL Thea 25 Cents Theat *In the production of what the producers style box-office successes. I believe in letting the public be the judge. Present day picture productions are getting better. More money is being spent in order that the picture curries out its uniqueness rightly styled as feature attractions. What is what the people really look for. Many of America's foremost picture corporations are utilizing the services of the colored color and offset. If they were more and more satisfactory they would not be called upon to assume the different roles assigned them by the white picture corporations. There is little or no trouble in finding talent if you've got money to back up your intentions. And in creating a picture corporation, not the directly owned one, capital is required. This could very easily be procured if the right people could be found to take an interest in the welfare of the newly formed corporation. I do not believe, once you have a picture corporation, once the public becomes interested in the colored picture the same at it is interested in the white ones, the battle is over. The undertaking will eventually become a paying one. But you are going to take money and picture corporations are not created over night.

Reverend Nix is making Vocalian Records for the Brunswick-Balker-Collender Company. The Brunswick Company thinks a great deal of Reverend Nix, and is to be congratulated on securing his services.

It seemed that this young woman had been wounded by a rich scion of an Akansa family and that she finally fitted to Memphis where she worked in the day and buried her memorial table in the corner.

But taken as a whole people always evening SEEING MARY GRADUATE Few who attended the graduation ceremony of Mary graduated from High School Wednesday night at the Lyric, noticed the old gentleman in the crime and color of the fertilizer factory, who stood back by the door, holding his hat in his hand and looking about apprehensively as though he was any moment to be asked to leave. "I just looked in for a minute," he approached him. "You see my Mary up there," pointing to the mass of G DAYS AT— ERLAND T MISS IT! Y, JULY 3rd AMUSEMENT Y.

He am not sure whether he expected to call an attendant and have him put out or whether he was just so full of emotion that he had to confide in someone, but anyhow he had put out and been in the family ever since her mother died and he and his wife cared for her as though she were their own. She was not able to give her all the things the other girls had but they had done their best, he said. She was graduating with the rest of them although he couldn't make her out up there in the crowd, and he just had to sneak away. She was not smart as she because he had heard that she would shake hands with the Mayor and everything. "She ain't no smart as the best of them," he said. The music of the orchestra that acted as a signal for the graduates to march brigade and receive their diplomas was merely interested in the proceedings while his was rapt enthusiasm as he peered over the heads and moved to get a look at the marchers. It was not until the last diploma exam, he was taken to jail again, but he had disappeared. One of those little figures dressed in white was his Mary and he had gone away. ROYAL Irving C. Miller's production of Miller and Lyles' success, "Runnin' Wild," is a very tame affair. Despite up from old Miller performers, there is little of the Miller quality in the show. Lacking in enthusiasm of performers and revealing scenes that than feeble applause, the ghost of a musical comedy approximates only average entertainment. Pew bouquets that can be handed to performers can also Gorgas is doing excellent portrayals in her character and Archie Cross, proverial old 'man of musical comedy,' is doing well. Percy Colston and Alonzo Fenderson clever straight men and singers, show up well in their song bits, but seem to laboriously diffuse their performance the slow-motion. Gallie de Gaston, featured comedian and star of "Runnin' Wild," gets a few laughs and some applause for the comic situations into which he has been used. Wilson and Irvin Beanon reach only the average grade in their dance specialties and could well add more steps and more enthusiasm to their Otis Stigrave and Helen Powell are admirable in their soubrette numbers, showing a more spirited style than the other members of the cast. Others of the girls who make distinct contributions to the show are "Baby Jane," the dancer and Mae Smith, a fluffy haired miss who resembles Grace Smith of stage and screen fame. She costumed and the girls are nearly unassessed with good looks. The dancing girls are: Rose Austen. Constance Stewart. Anne Washington. Constance Willis. Louise Williams. Marvel Welts, Gladys Foster and Mae Smith. Taking Mr. Miller's revival as a show, she cast a shadow of other shows he has produced and but pas-entertainment. LAFAYETTE A special Western feature, "Man Four Square," with Buck Jones, has been selected to head the Fourth of July tournament where the lovers Juvy bill at the Lafayette, and admirers of the great open spaces will be seen in some fast pace, and the lovers will be lovingly loved.

The purpose of the Fair is to depict to the world in general and Texas as in particular just what the Negro was accomplished during his sixty years of freedom. Substantial funds are available for the maintenance of the celebration, and over $5,000 in prizes will be distributed in Art, Literature and Music. Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion, is in charge of Athletics and Miss Augusta Savage, sculptor, is Art Director. It is urged by the Committee in Charge that the Negro race all over the country become active in this project, and send exhibits in handwork and art of all kinds. Further information may be secured from the Chairman, C. D. Jenkins, Box 490, Galveston, Texas, and Miss Augusta Savage. 29 West 130th Street, New York City. All exhibits are to be submitted to the Chairman. Listening In How Do You Treat Your Radio Host? A news-editorial in the July issue of Radio News, a weekly magazine, of the famed fan who sends letters or telegrams to the broadcasting stations demanding that advertisements not be sent with .ie programs. All broadcasting is usually supplied by individuals who advertise. The editorial says in part: "Most programs are paid for by some concern with the greatest interest in this cake put together with a very thin spread of its product, whether it be sleepy-time mattresses, chewing gum, never-run hosiery or petroleum oil." They sit down and out and your pet's host story bored you and you weren't interested in his account of what a good product was. You need to close the muffler and pass the chicken. That isn't done by people who know their I-Thank-you, and Beg-your-pardons. Yet the men in your house just as surely your hosts as if you sat at their tables—with this difference; if you don't like their stuff you turn a day and cease to watch. Your pardon parture leaves no aching void. You are free to steer your airship where you please, casting out your line selectively, knowing there are just tunes on the air as ever were surely. "Such being the case, why send in thoughtless messages to mar the patient pleasure of the solo without having the anvil chorus crab the act." People sit before their expensive radio or with their ears neatly pinched back with crystals of the air; overlooking the fact that at last they are getting something for nothing and, if the gift horse hasn't the proper number of teeth, they are dentist-ized and caused their bank roll or caused them one ache.

Dr. Haywood stated that the trouble with the youth of today is due to lax methods of home training and because the parents do not pay enough attention to religious teachings.

"I drive a car for hire," says Mr. Jke Sabel, of Gadsen, Ala., "and have to get up and go, early and late. Consequently I can't have regular hours for eating and sleeping. I occasionally have indigestion and find it necessary to take a laxative. I had heard of Thedford's BLACK-DRAUGHT Purely Vegetable for a long time. The drug-gist told me Black-Draught would help me. I bought a package and had it made in to tea and take it any time I feel the need of a laxative. It always helps me. I have much better appetite after I take Black-Draught. I can eat about everything I want and feel full of pep. I would not be without it for double the price." Black-Draught can be taken dry or made into a tea, as you prefer. Either way, it costs only one cent a dose. Sold Everywhere NEW YORK BROOKLYN. N. Y BROOKLYN, N. Y.

Modern World In Too Big A Hurry To See God, Says Rev. The modern world is too full of hurry and bustle to see or know God, declared the Rev. W. W. Walker, pastor of Madison Street Presbyterian Church, last Sunday. His toot which was "Be still and know that I am God" he stated that the stillness does not mean idle inactivity; rather it means cessation of rush and push and hurry, in order that the mind may reflect and thereby see God. The modern world says: Be full of excitement of rivalry of hurry and find God. It is the stillness that will reveal a live God, not a dead one.

Briggs, New Leader, Vet In Service; Joined Team Back In 1917 Otto Briggs, the veteran right-fielder of the Hilldale Club, is the new captain of the Darby team and will direct the play of the Daisies on the field. The decision was reached at a real dale conference between Ed Bolden and his players when they reported for morning practice at Hilldale Park. The club that was long a consistent winner was taking it on the hip this season and instead of leading the lead in the Eastern League are making a tight to keep out of the cellar. The first half of the league schedule is fast drawing to a close and Bolden is determined to win the Hildale team and have them in the first half of the tournament for honors in the second half of the league战场. In picking a man to succeed Warfield as field general, Bolden selected Eriegs and his choice has been roundly approved by members of the team. Eriegs record for touch with the Hildale team is longer than any other player.

ATLANTIC CITY — The Barchach Giants downed the Black Sox here, Tuesday, in the second of a three-game series. 11 to 9. Game Protested It was a good old-fashioned slugfest and was enjoined by a noisy crowd. The only thing that detraced from the days' fun was the fact that Manager Tayler was the face of the wide world that he was playing the game under protos, after a seventh-inning tussle. Taylor claimed that Lewis was tagged out at third for the third out of the innings, before Smith had scored on a hit by Lundy. The total hits for the day off the five twirlers was no less than 20 in Washington by getting two triples and a home run out of three official times at bat. Hubbard, local heavy hitter, after trying vainly to do something with Yokeeley and his immediate successor, "Bob" McClure got a homer off of Parrell in the eighth. Eugleton had a double in three singles, while Lewis clouted for a double and twice for singles. There was some beautiful fielding to keep the fans interested. Marcelli work in the eighth was one of the best in the game. Shorty' Johnson drunk a base on balls, then Holloway laid a neat bump down the third base line. Oliver came in fast, grabbed the ball with his bare hand and then Johnson tried to make third on the play and Marcell went back to third to take Dallard's throw and leaped at Johnson to tag him out. Jack de la Cruz, the visiting second baseman, placed a marvellous game of ball at the keystone sack. There was a hint of a big day for the sticksmith in the first innning, but both twirlers, Farrell and Yokeley, managed to skin through unscathed. In the third innning, the first hit of the day off Farrell, it being a triple to centerfield. He scored or Eckleton double. They continued in the third and added four more runs to their total. The Bees squeezed a run across in the third and still another in the fourth and in the fifth, with the score 5-2 against them, they took the lead never to be headed, but tied once and threatened often. Yokeley was left on the bench after the fifth frame and McClure opened for the sixth, leading 6-5. One marker was made off McClure and the B Giants came to bat in the seventh ahead. 7-5, and found Force on the mound. Again they scored once but in the lower half of the eighth Battles, they lost on the mound. This was a mistake for Hubbard clouted the ball over the right field fence. Dallaral walked, single and Lundy singled. Taylor realised it was an error then and he. He did and escaped unscored upon Washington's honour in the ninth was Baltimore's last bid for victory. The teams will meet in the final game of the series today. The Bears are well in the lead of the series yesterday and Monday, and need only a win today to about clutch the first-ball championship.

The Black Sox tucked away two contests from the Brooklyn Royals Sunday, winning the first game 13 to 12, and the second by forfeit 9 to 0, after the New Yorkers refused to play in the sixth running following a computed decision. The first game consumed three hours and ten minutes playing time. Muscles were frequent, extra base hits plentiful and a quintet of hurlers were rushed on the hull. Game Protested The second contest started off mildly. Starks, another lefthander, opposed Force, a team consisting of four times in the sixth frame with the count 6 all. Smith was purposely passed.

Jackson drew a walk for Brook in Brown and on the next play Wilson was struck by Flournoy forcing in Holloway. Washington fined out to Brooks closing the frame. Royals Rally After two were out in the fourth Bronx, Holloway and Washington became muddled and left the center to start a three run rally. Finley went to third on a passed ball and scored on Owen's unfield hit. Flourmoy and Holloway were forced Force filling the bases, forcing in Owen. Force then hit Smith force filling the bases, forcing in the Sox half Force was safe after Sean muffed his hot grounder. He went to third on Johnson's single and scored on Holloway's service to the Sox. Holloway Smacks Homer In the Soys' half Force was sate tally that almost sent Flournoy to the showers. Washington was hit by the ball and missed the pole second. Taylor struck out. Then Eggleston drew a walk. Brown hammed a hot grounder to Flournoy but balanced on the loose and rolled into field scoring Washington. Force rolled to Scav and Eggleston scored when the former fumbled. Holloway brought in a ball over right field fence for a home run scoring Brown and Force. Another Melee Continuing the never ceasing run amboree the Royals waded in and counted five tallies in the next session. Owens, who started the trouble in the fourth was safe when Jackson fumbled his grounder. Flournoy doubled to left advancing Owens to third. Arnold hit to center field for three bases scoring Owens and Flournoy. At this juncture Manager Taylor sent Yokley in to relieve Force. Yokley hit Seay and Smith single by Hudspeeth filled the bases. Brooks struck out. Then Cason singled to center scoring Seay and Smith. A double by Taylor and a single by Eggleston gave the Black Sox an other tally in their half.

Brown, who replaced Owens in the lineup drew a walk, while Holland, who went in for Flournoy singled to left advancing Brown to third. Arnold hitted a Texas leager to right scoring Wilson, who missed the ball, going to the stand, and Holland scored. With the count tied Wilson broke the suspense by hitting over leftfield fence for a homer.

"BEES" WALLOP SOX IN FIRST CRUCIAL GAME TAYLOR PELTS HOMER WITH WASHINGTON ON A large and excited crowd, one of the largest of the current season, watched the first two teams of the league battle for the lead and more than likely the championship of the first half. "Rats" Henderson and his slugging teammates, combined to form a determined and almost unbeatable nine. He held the visitors to five hits, and except for a home run in the ninth by Taylor, might have scored a shut out. The team aligned "Bob" McClure for no less than 12 hits and there were doubles and triples aplenty. Wee Wilie Jones returned to his post behind the plate and beaten out by a triple, double and a single in three times at bat. Oliver Marcell gathered a double and two single in four hits, and he beaten out by only one bunker, but that was a three-bagger. "Dick" Lundy and even "Rats" got doubles, to assert their rights in the first inning. Hubbard led off by reaching first on McClure's error. Dallard was whiffed, but White singled to the centerfield enabled Hubbard to cross the plate. Although three men were fanned by McClure in the second, the Bees were fanned by After Smith and breezed, Marcel singled, stole second and scored on an error by Catcher Egleton. He was breezed out, but his triple and before he could get home Henderson had used up his three strikes. Next innine was almost a duplicate of the second. Hubbard opened by fanning, but Dallard was walked and pluffered second base. Lundy doubled to center to send him Then they rested until the seventh. Again the first man un. Dallard, was fanned. White sinited to centerfield and Lundy grounded out to McClure Smith singled to right and scored White. Marcell doubled to right to score Smith. The Baltimore bats awakened in the ninth and with two down. Wash- ington walked and Taylor followed with his circuit blow. Henderson fanned the next man.

Ovals Win In 12 Innings Chestertown Wins Keenan Predicts End Of The Eastern League Lincolnis With Montalvo In Line Up Plan Independent Games—Won Twice From Santop's Broncos Sunday Montalvo With Lincolns Only 6 Clubs In League ATLANTIC CITY. — The return of Montalvo, the big Cuban outfielder and holdout of the National League threw a boomerang in the meeting of the Eastern League commissioners here, Wednesday, when Jim Keenan, owner of the New York club turned a deaf car to the request of fellow owners to send the player back west, and allowed his team to be voted out of the circuit to reinquish his claim on the Islander. Several weeks ago upon the action of the League president, I. N. Nutrani, the National League clubs failed to claim him following a special meeting of that circuit. Keenan, still realizing that the Cuban was a free agent, asked the league to use him in the game with the Bahacharzas at New York, last Sunday. Montalvo, who is accepted by all opposing teams in the East as a player of the Western Cuban Stars, had trouble with Holina, his former boss, over a matter of salary. This difference stretched over the entire season to stay out of the game the past season. The player who is now in New York signed a contract to play with the Lincoln Stars. In the end, the league he was ushered into the line-up and was held partly responsible for the spurt taken on by the Lincoln in that the team was removed from the line-up following a refusal of the Hilldale club to play at New York one Sunday. During the stay of Montalvo on club in the league. Keenan was one of the men who formed the league back in 1922 and his club has held the title since. Keenan's connection with the league, however, has been anything but smooth and only prior to the 2012 season, hurried from the ranks with his New York entry, but reconsidered the matter and relied on the league. Virtually all of Keenan's players will be to the outwork of a fend that apparently exists between Nat Strong the owner of the Brooklyn Royal Giants and the Linden. The outing of Keenan's club reduces the league to six clubs and the schedule committee will meet in New York to discuss the lay out for the second half. Those present were Thomas Jackson, Bacharach Giants; C. Strohman, Brooklyn Giants; George Rossiter, Baltimore Black Sox; Nat C. Strong, Brooklyn Royal Giants, and Edward Bolden, Hildale. The back of financial returns the league decided to discontinue active operations at Richmond and Norfolk. The brute about which closes on July 10.

P. was touched for four hits including the extra basehit of the game, a two-bagger by Greene. fielder, the Lincoln Giants were in a fighting mood on Sunday, and won two games from the Santop's Broncos 6-4 and 8 to 3. Montalvo celebrated his return to the lineup by hitting two home runs in the contest. He was at bat four times in this game and made four runs. Jim Keenan, owner, declared the Eastern League needs his team more and has already begun negotiations to play the Homestead Grays of the N.Y.C. League and pendents clubs throughout the country in New York. These games and his post-league series with the big league team prevent him from suffering financially. The other teams of the league, on the other hand, will lose from $300 to $50 per play, which they orally put on playing on the home grounds of the Lincoln's. In the first game, Sunday, Watson held the home team to six scattered hits only by the two homestands by Montalvo gave the Lincoln's margin of victory. Gistentner was the opposing pitcher. Paul Wins. The second game was an easy victory for the local team. Sproul, formerly the star pitcher at Morris Brown College, Atlanta, GA., was on the home team and held the visitors to five hits. Carter started on the mound for the Broncos but did not last an innning. Al Britten relieved him but was unable to stop the heavy hitting.

SOX-BACHARACH SERIES MAY SETTLE RACE CUBANS GOING NOW LIKE WHIRL WIND By THE ARBITER A crucial series of three games which will most likely decide the pennant winner for the first half in the Eastern League got under way Monday at Atlantic City between the Bacharachs and the Baltimore Black Sox. Monday the Sox lost and the Bees obtained a firmer notch toward getting a hold on the first position. Once the ball has been getting a rue all their own for the pass few weeks, running almost neck-and-neck, as they march down the home-stretch of the first half grind. First one has taken the lead, then Monday, the Bees were in first place by a two-point margin, gamed by winning three out of four from Hildale over Orlando. Make Or Break The series this week, is almost certain to make or break the chances of the Bees winning the games or Ben Taylor's Memorial City clan. One or the other is bound to cop two of the games, possibly three, and with it the pennant may be won. Bees and Black Sox have split even, but this is the first time the Baltimore team has played at Atlantic City. With Alex Pompey's Cuban Stars going like a mad whirlwind, neither the Bees nor the Black Sox can be certain of winning the flag. The game behind the leaders and have won six of the last eight games played. The dropping of the Lincoln's from the League leaves an evenly balanced season. Cuban Pitchers Oscar and San, mainstays of the Cuban staff, evidently found the hot days of the summer to take advantage of it. With the aid of timely hitting by Dihigo Oms and Mesa, the twoangers respectively. Dihigo slammed out another home-run and ran his total up to 100 yards without rames over the week-end. Harrisburg The Senators failed to get into action over the week-end. But, on Monday, however, the Brooklyn Royals came the Giants defeated the New Yorkers. Manager Beckwith, badly in need of a backstop, took up the receiving end himself, and was fairly good, but can't hit, and is also slow on the bags due to an injured foot. Carter, former Black Sox hurler, has won his last six victories of six victories and three defeats. It seems from the showing of the Coopers (Sam and Dee), Gardner and the Harrisburg trouble does not lie with them, but with the infield and outer garden. HIllidae Ed. Bolden's Dalsies were unmercifully beaten by the Bees over the week-end. the latter crew capturing three out of four contests. The Baltimore Black Sox also journeyed down the stretch. Even with Lewis back in the game, and Carr's return to first base, apparently does not alter things. Up until Monday the Dalsies were the most, more than any club in the league. Bolden says he is going to reinforce the club for the second half. If the Phillies drop in the next half, they will push the Rays from the cellar, "Red Ryan is the only hurler able to chalk up a victory within the last eight days, and that was Friday when they beat the Rays. **Royals** The Royals have the hardest hitting club in the league, but why they can't play well and listen playing. Here Sunday, they piled up sixteen hits to 9 for the Sox, and lost the game. They counted six extra base hits, including two doubles. Flournoy, their leading twirler, and a jinx to the Sox every since the league began, was beaten Sunday. The big win was a wide smile. If "Dick" Redding could get his boys to winning there would be many upsets in the league. "Bill" Holland has won four and lost four for an innings among the pitchers, while Smith wizardman, has clouted out five homers. Without a doubt, Arnold, a mere boy, just passing his 20th birthday, is a batting prodigy. He doubles and hits with more ease for double and triple with more ease and grace than Cason or Hudspeth can get a single. This kid bears watching. Red Sox Drop Final To Stars MEMPHIS. Tenn. (ANP) — The Memphis Red Sox and the Cuban Stars mounted the field here for the Red Sox and the Cuban Stars won by a count of 4–1. Garcia hurled a beautiful game allowing the Red Sox only four hits. The Stars scored off 3 hits. C. Belt relieved him, giving 2 runs off 7 hits.

AFROS WIN 14-12 OVER GIANTS Hardy Of Douglass Makes Debut As Pitcher And Is Chased To Showers HERB KELLER'S RELIEF HURLING SAVES GAME Heavy' Johnson Collects Two Triples And A Home Run The AFRO Tossers Journeyed out to Venables's Park, Saturday, and won an uphill game from the Baltimore Giants, 14 to 12. Hardy, a Douglass High School athlete, and member of the printer's brigade, opposed Taylor on the mound for the innings but weakened in the fifth and the Giants put over a five run rally, which was quelled by "Herb" Kiellers. The printers got off to a two-run lead in the first frame. Culey was safe on an infeld hit which was too hot for Happ, second-base-man to hold. The Giants forced Robinson single to center. Keller was struck by Taylor, and when Bullock singled to right Robinson counted with the second tally. Giants counted two in the third and five in the fifth, while the AFRO Boys staged a seven run rally in the sixth to go up. Robinson Hills' walk, Hardy hit by Taylor, Marcell's single, a wild throw by Mack, a double by Scott, and two errors, one by Happ and one by Middleton gave the AP-0.

ATLANTIC CITY. — After bowing to the slants of "Red" Ryan, Friday 8 to 1, the Bacharachs came back Saturday and tucked away a double at the Hildale Daisies 15 to 0, and 8 to 1. Lefty Luther Farrell had things pretty much his own way in the first game, he held the Daisies to live five tallies with two mighty clovers over the right and center field fences. His first homer in the seventh came with eight chased in two ahead of him. Roy Roberts pitched the Bees to a win in the nightcap, although the home runs ruined the chance of Daisies, when Hubbard smashed out one off Campbell and another off Cockrell. "Eggle" Dallard also conferred with one by Marcel in the first game run the string of homers to six for the day led the Bees in safeties. 34 of those in safeties hit for a total of 68 bases were garnered by the Bees. BLACK SOX BEAT BLACK SOX BLACK SOX BEAT BLACK SOX WASHINGTON. — The Bethlehem Black Sox of Baltimore were not match for the local Black Sox here, Sunday, and were defeated in a 7-6, 6-4, 6-3 victory. The locals went on a hitting rampage and slammed the visiters hurlers all over the lot. The feature of the games was the batting uniforms of Monroe Ford and Crump, a newcomer, who replaced Monroe at second in the final contest. The latter got two doubles and a single out of three times up, and a double out of three times up, and a Baltimore boy, but playing with the D. C. outfit, was spiked by Harris, Steelman pitcher, in the first encounter, who twirled the first game, struck out 10 visitors, while Lacey, on the mound in the second game, whiffed 13.

Elks Split Announcement of Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson, that the Elks' Convention site had been moved from New York to Cleveland has caused this order. New York lodges aided by the secretary and treasurer of the order are behind a movement to meet in New York anyhow, and announcements to this effect have been sent the lodges of the country. In all probability there will be two Elk Conventions this year. Eventually, there will likewise result two Elks, just as there separate groups of Masons, Pythians and odd Fellows, and we have another illustration of thoughtless leaders who are willing to wreck an institution in order to "got" a certain individual. Minority factions have sought to depose Mr. Wilson for five years. That it is minority can be seen from the fact that the vote to release the fifth term at the convention was 497 to 331. This minority claims that five years of Wilson is enough and a new head should be elected. They say Wilson spent $2,000 to re-elect himself last year; that he has had his own career raised to $5,000 and together with certain fees paid to a stipend of $10,000 and $15,000 a year. Finally, he does not represent the highest type of Elk leadership. Granted that all these things are so, why is it the minority faction is unwilling to take their fight to the convention and make there a order their desire for reform? Can it be that the majority of Elks are blind to the short-comings of their leader? Are they deaf to an appeal for justice and common sense and dumb when the times come to cast their vote according to their consciences? Of course, not. Nobody believes these things are true. The minority group like a bunch of school children, bolt the organization and call a rump convention for New York. Any fool can break up an organization, but it requires real statemanship to hold it together and absolute genius to reunite the parts when it has broken. Statemanship requires that the leaders of the minority and majority factions meet and affect a compromise. There is still time. No issue at stake is more important than union among the Elks. If the disaster is this, the disaster may be avoided if they do not, the order deserves the fate which awaits it. Director Wood The Baltimore City School Commissioners in their last session announced the promotion of Supervisor Francis A. Wood to post of Director of School Administration. Under the present organization of the city school system, the supervisor is next above principal, the director above supervise and the assistant director above principal and district Drawing of Music and Industrial Education. It has also directors of physical education and Americanization. This ends Mr. Woods' second year as supervisee. The district of colored schools. In this period, half time classes have been abolished, five new or improved buildings opened four supervisees in various branches of the school system, and a realized in a single office and the cooperation of the large teaching staff secured in creating a progressive professional staff. David Woelein in summarizing the first year of Mr. Woods' work said: "The colored schools have never been better condition. Mr. Woods' administration and administration is satisfied with it." Mr. Wood's promotion comes then merit and hard work. He works hard, works hard, and with him Dr. Westein and the school commissioners. Our hope is that Director Wood may deserve and be given even higher promotion next year. Count No Account Josephine Baker. Harlem and Paris dancing girl extraordinary, is not married to an Italian Count as reported. It was a press agent stunt, she confessed. First, the man to whom she confessed was to keep in the "movie" they are making; secondly, neither is married or likely to be. Jo Baker, the 21 year old girl who could barely earn $35 a week at home but earns $3000 a week in Paris, has learned fast. Announcement of her movie wedding, the best picture was worth a few lines, if that in American newspapers. Announcement of the fake marriage was worth first page mention for three successive days in every American Journal and a column to a page in the feature section.

Judge Henry Magistrate Edward Henry of Philadelphia, faces a fight for renomination in the primaries in September. Judge Henry, an independent, was appointed by ex-Governor Pinchot, also an independent, to fill the unexpired term of the late Amos Scott. In late years the office has abolished the city's mayor, and the city. The salary has been raised to $5,000, the city now pays the rental of the office and employs a clerk at $1,200 and a bailiff at $900. These considerations cause G. O. P. leaders to make the attempt to oust Judge Henry and put in place a regular party nominee. Everyone else in the city magistrate that he is respected and revered by those of both races who he serves but they object, he is not a regular Republican. In the last general election, he stumped the country for Mr. John W. Davis. Democratic nominee for governor, he is O. P. stand pattern, as "Udle Tone," "Hat in hands," "Bootlickers" and the like. Therefore, "Boss" Vare has been importomed to place his support in the comm primaries behind some of the candidates in the public united of Judge Henry. The issue, therefore, is not fitness for office, but whether an "independent" shall continue to hold Philadelphia's choice of political job. The decision is up to "Doss" Vare and the danger lies in the fight becoming so bitter that the office will go to a white Republican. Montgomery Co. Montgomery County (Md.) Board of Education has awarded contracts for carrying out an elaborate school building program, made possible by an act of the last legislature, authorizing a bond issue of $450,000 for school improvements. For white schools will be of brick and those of colored schools, frame. Five new white school contracts have been awarded, the sum ransging from $13,945 to $52,475, exclusive of plumbing and lighting. Eleven new colored school contracts were awarded, the sum ransging from $13,945 to $52,475. All told, the five new white schools will cost $180,728 and the ten new colored schools, $42,769. The ratio is four to one and the total funds disposed of amount to half the. This ratio of expenditure of the school loan might seem fair in view of the fact that the colored population in this county is 28% of the whole. On the other hand school expenditures in this county as tabulated in a recent report show that $1333 for each child in the school district is child and $225 on the education of each colored child, by the county. Certainly, present circumstances demand that a greater proportion of the remainder of the school district be colored than county means to do the fair thing by all the people. And can any member of the Montgomery County board give an honest-to-goodness reason why all white schools are to be brick and all the colored, frame? Methodist Union Union of the African Methodist Episcopal Church and the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church is closer today than even before following the meeting of the unification commission in Pittsburgh last week. Nevertheless, if the membership of both groups is as enthusiastic as the leaders were last week, consumption of the union is still five years away. This is the procedure. The tentative plan of unification accepted last week must be persecuted and adopted by the Bishops conference of the Church in the February 1928 meeting. This final draft must be then adopted by the General Conference of the two churches meeting in 1928, and referred to the annual conferences and churches of the denomination for a referendum vote. The results of this referendum will be made known at the 1932 General Conference of the churches. The unification brings together a million members, a half million Sunday school children, 10,000 church children, 10,000 church property in one administrative body not including a score of schools and colleges. Such a union is worth working for. Its worth waiting five years for. Justice Dead Judge Iris W. Jaysen's address in the publication "I am not yet ready to believe that the majority of my fellow men, that is my white fellow men, have had the opportunity to be the canker of race prejudice. I believe that in the hearts and minds of a multitude of your fellow white citizens similarly situated, alike in everything about them, there is an acute sense of justice which may be successfully aroused. "The soil has been well prepared. They listen to your artists because they read your authors for the feel of their words. The time has come to submit to them the proposition of justice in the abstract. We have successors, aaken cases, and a case of law, but we now take it to the courts of public opinion "We must get our appeal into the white pulpit and the white preside of the church and the white home? It is a task of magnitude. It does appear discouraging. I know when the fiery Henry Ward Crawford contemporaries his listeners sought to enforce his silence. But the masses of our fellow white men are still preoccupied with prejudice is a weapon in the hands of the enemy. Its sole purpose is their own injury.

"All Badged Up With No Where To Go" Ask the thousands of school teachers, salaried employees and working folk, who can always scrape up the payments on our fair share of the payroll, the rally or lodge money, BUT COULD NEVER SEE THEIR WAY CLEAR TO INVEST TEN DOLLARS IN ANY PRODUCTIVE ENGINEERING? SAY SELFIES TOGETHER TO PROMOTE A PAYING BUSINESS. Wives And Civilization Down in the Circuit Court of Baltimore this week the wife of a wrecked home told a judge that she married a man whom she admitted knew to be caricatures. USE THE WANTED TO BECOME A WIFE There are circumstances under which each person in this highly conventional world, but there are never circumcumbers, but there is not circumcism; it matters, not the kind of husband. DOFS NOT ELEVATE A MAN IN THE EYES OF THE WORLD. Towards The Rocks Another failure in leadership, or disrupting another great organization. With the announcement that J. Finley Wilson will take the Elks Convention enforcement of the New York continent, that they would stay in New York, it will be hard to avert a serious spill in this organization. With this reproduction of new organizations by fission may have been wise a decade ago, in this day of consolidation it will be bad business. To do justice the jetties of defeat the Grand Excalid Ruler is desperately running his craft into the vicinity of the more dangerous rocks of New York, is some slight danger of a worn out blue law interfering with the meeting of Elks in New York City. It would certainly have seen the best policy of Elks in the status of Elkdom there forever. But what is more apprehensive to most observers is the apparent fear of J. Finley Wilson to meet his opposition and a section of community. DAYBY DAY WITH WILLIAM N. JONES Nor was this all that added to the weight of sorrow for this young man, who was inspired that comes in achievement with a GOOD MOTHER LOOKING ON. His mother was not only dead, but had been hurt by the malestrom of a misguided life. But, with his heart aching, he carried on and delivered his address to the world, which produces men out of the ordinary. Hard work makes hard muscles; hard experiences often produce extraordinary men IF MADE OF THE LIGHT STEEL From South Carolina comes a letter which shows another kind of tracedy, which should concern deep-sea civic leader in any city, or town in these United States. Says a young graduate in seeking work through the Afro-America department. I have won three medals. I have finished a trade; in fact I am all badged up with nowhere to go. I have thousands of young men and women finishing from our schools who are in the same ten or think they are. Why haven't the factories in my state employ the trained thousands coming out with technical education; why haven't we banks, department stores, finance concerns, wholesale and retail concerns, who wish to take those which await white youth? Ask the wife of the minister, doctor, lawyer or business man who buys all her clothing and groceries and will wait on THEM all night but won't give the son of her neighbor.

Any of the above might throw some light on why John Williams, the composer of "Oklahoma," or why thousands of boys and girls in practically every city in the country who have graduated from trade and technical schools had bagged up and no where to go." Instinctively women know that to be a wife is to assume civilization has produced. God Himself produced motherhood but even motherhood, alone of itself does not hold the revenge of itself nor reach the pinnacle of the wife.

Brown Skin Service ♦ B5 WM PICKENS Morgan College Has Not Given Up Campaign Sayes President Spen- u The colored American has been so domineered over in a white world that he must have more brains and courage to stand straight like a sandwich. To the Editor: In recent issue of the AFO-ARO (AERONET) the headlines carried a statement giving the impression that Morgan College had abandoned its Crusade campaign. I have had inquiries from various points touching this matter. Will you be good enough to say that Morgan College will not do so until the pledges are met?

The first beautiful superhero, Little White children and their mothers would select a black doll quicker than would colored cus-tions.

White Indianapolis Pastors Back Out Of Their Promises At Last Mom- Whenever one has spoken of a beautiful black cat, a beautiful black cat, a beautiful black cat, a colored audience has sat in dignified silence, seeming to comprehend, — as soon as the speaker mentioned a same audience, laughed hilariously. To the Editor That altho mity of the white churches at first agreed, and had announced in N. A. A. C. P. program that they would have such-and-such a speaker from the Annual Conference. In the same year, days before the Sunday came, SOME-THING HAPPENED, and word began to come in, first from one white pastor then another, that "due to some mix-up in programs," or for some other obvious "reason," they would not have a Conference speaker. But a change has been in progress during the last score, even the last decade of years. Now dolls of different colors and sizes are window windows, albeit they are abnormally expensive, and dark angels are blowing their trumpets on the walls of many homes. Necro clans has almost stopped saying: "We will treat you white" and has given them the will he will give you brown skin service."

Church, about the largest white church in town, and I moved to be so interesting that a large part of the conference delegates and visitors, as well as many local people, white and colored, decided to go to that church and "see."

Heard and Seen In Baltimore RALPH MATTHEWS The pastor of the First Baptist Church, who put the deacons out of office, was himself posted last week. He seen them playing the game. If you meet him this time, I'll put you out the next time. It's getting so on the hand that pounds the pulpit is just as uneasy as the head that wears the crown. Whatever troubles a king might have, he have to call the guy brother who was trying to kick him out of his job. It's pretty tough when a preacher is afraid to shout his eyes when he prays for fear the deacons will put something over on him. It takes a good pastor to keep his mind on heaven when his congregation is continually raising n-1. Some churches sing "Onward Christian Soldiers" because they are always thinking about fighting. They think the army of the Lord has to fight its way into heaven with brick-bats. Everybody thinks he's got more religion than his neighbor and will punch him in the nose to prove it. When some church members apply at the gates of heaven St. Peter hawker not any to make sure they hawker not any blackjack biders under their robes. Some Christians are already experimenting to learn the most effective way to knock a guy stuff with a golden harp. When two rival factions meet before the golden throne, with their long white wings, feathers will fly until it will look like a snowstorm. It will keep the heavenly laundry busy washing their white robes after they finish mopping up the street with each other. The first thing some folks are going to do when they get inside the gates is start looking for a gold brick. A lot of people won't get much rest in heaven for kicking each other out of bed. Even death can't knock all the devilment out of some folks. Some of the singers in the heavenly choir will get out of tune just for meanness. When they'll argue with music that must have to turn to another piece. If you don't allow them to start trouble they won't believe it's heaven. Some folks who pretend to have been baptized by the father, son and Holy Ghost will try to lick all three of them. If Baltimore folks don't like the way heaven is run they cause a split and start a heaven of their own. They won't be in good before they start agitation to vote St. Peter out of his job. If the election fails they get an injunction against him. Some folks think the right hand of good fellowship has a pair of steel knuckles on them. They love their themselves, but don't even like themselves. No sooner will they get to heaven than they are to get Sampson to join their side. A guy can clean up a fortune selling jawbones of an ass. MILD MUSINGS By ORIE McCULLUM Now I used to be a soldier Of the good old U. S. trenches. And I fought in France's trenches Till they had the Armistice Day. Then they said the war was over, And the fighting was all done; So we took the steamer homeward Mighty glad we licked the Hun. Then the lad was quiet and peaceful. Until Independence Day When the fireworks shooting started In an awful fearful way. Little kids were bombing, throwing Fireworks about the street. And the mighty cannon crackers Sploded right beneath your feet. Roman candles, sparklers sizzling. Bombs a-burning, round your head; Little girls with torn up fingers And a few was hurt or dead. All the merchants was a-talking Of the patriotic way. Saying fireworks, celebration Makes a real old holiday. Yes they make a lot of money From the folks who've leapt to eat. Who could better use their earnings Putting shoes upon their feet. And this poor man's celebration Makes the rich man happy, gay; Cause he sells the expensive doodads For to celebrate the day. Poem This Week Summer By Cora Allen The roses nod to the buttercups. The buttercups smile at the sky. The舞舞 dance in the sunshine. When warm, south wind goes by The robin builds in the tree top, The lark has her nest on the ground The oriole hangs her cup in the elm. And the swallow darts over and round. The gray squirrel leaps from branch The brook chatters mostly by. The grass is tall, the berries are ripe. And the breeze dies down to a sigh. The sunshine's hot in the dusty road. The shadows are cool in the vale. The white clouds drift in the azure Not All Savage (By The Cameraman, P.N.S.) "Trader Horn", a new volume published by Simon and Schuster, of works of Alfred Aloysius Horn (whose at one time an African trader on the Ivory Coast, throws new light on the "Cannibals" of Africa. "Trader Horns" biographer quotes him. "Horn went out to Arica at the age of eighteen or eighteen. One is never sure which. He had been educated at St. Edward's College in Liverpool; and no little of that education had gone to him. "We have blood brother to cannibals. No need to say been. I STILL AM. Nothing destroys the bond but death. Cannibals? The most moral race on earth? THE WOMEN HAVE THE HEN FUL. I've lived amongst them like a brother, a young lad CLEAN AND SAFE. Safer than in London." What a revelation! Think of Mr. Chaste women, faithful men, among the "cannibals" of Africa. Our women have left us a heritage — a heritage which gains greater respect as the ages pass by. Kelly Miller Says Pessimism! No, Never. What man has done, man can do; what other peoples have done, our people can do. But we must drink of the cup of which they have drunk and be baptised with the baptism with which they have been baptised. Let us have the patience to find the facts, the courage to work out our own salvation, even though it be with fear and trembling. This rational optimism. Hope springs eternal in the human breast. Optimism is a natural stimulus. Pessimism paralyzes the one who sees all. They are able who think they are able, says the poet Virgil. The doctrine of despair is the doctrine that destroys. The philosophies and the theologians of the world bring up some ideal consumption of things and have inspired mankind ever to hope for their ultimate fulfillment. The consumptive always feels that he is getting better every day, and all will be well by and by. We pray that sin may be banished from the world; and although the race grows more and more sinful, yet we persist in the belief that our prayer will be an But a shallow optimism leads to self-compliance. Is the common memory fulfillment of the final well being of mankind, then why worry our souls about present or future? Does it offer the evils of our day and generation, with assurance that even these things will increase, weight of glory? Certain friends of mine have been saying to me of late that they have noticed a vein of pessimism in them. They have taken great pain to caution me that gloomy forebodies serve only to discourage the young. I have always endeavor for better things. I thank them for their generous, though gratuitous advice. I am neither a pessimist nor a realist, with optimistic exposure. The prophet who sees a little clearer and a little further than his felicityism. He is always prophesying the evil things to come. The generation does not wish to be disturbed in its wish to be blinded in the blindness to the future kindly given to foretend it from anxiety. The lamb licks the hand just raised to shed its blood with a confiding and salutary blindness. Some little while ago, I addressed an organization of young people, and asked them to open their eyes and glimpse the things that are impending. I cautioned them with the inane optimism that all is right with the world and race. They must face things as they are, and they must have vainly hoped they ought to be. The Negro race has been overloaded on optimism. Religion has taught them that existing regimes are perilous, and that they must disclose their involved perfection. Our white friends have preached the doctrine of hope - even when there is weakness. Optimism is the philosophy of the weak-willed. The Negro has been and is now being exploited as a weak-willed enemy. We must hope and trust, watch and pray. He is admonished to stand still and see his racial salvation. The poet advises that we must be Negro with his weakness of will, is rather disposed to wait than to labor for the great end in view. Let me now specify certain instructions that the Negro is over organized. 1. He has placed an over emphasis upon his accumulation of property. Through an inane emphasis, he defends himself against the whites through material substance. He fails lamentably to open his eyes to the plain facts of observation. His gaining wealth, although remarkable as an isolated incident, is nevertheless an amazing material progress. The Negro but partakes of the crumbs which fall from the table of the white man's munificence. One or two white men command more of the resources of the Negro than are combined. As valuable as the Negro's wealth may be within itself yet it has little or no comparative or competitive power. We go through the great cities and note the magnificent sections which segregative prejudice has ordained and note the titles to fine properties in the Negro's name, and the heart swells with pride. But we forget that no final appraisal cannot be made until the end of property generation, that is the period which elasses between the first and the last property. Much too much of these properties will revert to the white lord who save them. Farm Holdings Gradually Declining Then again, we overlook the reverse side of the picture. Turn now to the farm, and note once again the decline in the decades. Think how many of these peasant folks have swapped their little farm properties for more modern ones, their productive capital; the city home is consumptive capital. The one creates; the other devours. But the city Negro, especially in large centers, pays out half of his income for rent. Any fool can easily foretell the fate of the Negro, but not Has the Negro, as a whole, bettered his economic condition by this mad cityward movement? Let calm judgment rather than vapid optimism. 2. There is a pittable optimism about the decline of race prejudice. We see, not only the operation of anti-racism, but also the facts. Race prejudice clothes itself in five distinct forms of outward dress. In all of these modes it is possible to distinguish between Separate schools, Jim crow cars, disfranchisement, segregation and antisegregation represent the legal forms into which prejudice crystallizes. Separate schools and discrimination have grown with the decades. No one of them has been materially weakened by the united endeavor of the Negro and the white community. A little while ago the over antimistic among us were exulting that lynching had been checked because of a year or two as revealed by imperfect statistics, but more recent happenings convince us that the same old evil still remains from the past. We all hope that prejudice of race will pass Fatal Optimism Of Pessimism Race Overfed On Optimism Equality Through Material Substance What man has done, man pleases have done, our people ink of the cup of which they tised with the baptism with tised. face to find the facts, the cou- salvation, even though it be This rational optimism. away; but it is only a shallow con- mism that looks for the elimination of the special forms in which a uniform itself, until the mast cause has been modified or re- moved. Deceiving Ourselves On Present Program 3. We are greatly deceiving ourselves the vaccious belief that the vaccine adequately addresses the task against which we applied.

A. the forms of endeavor, but if each operated separately or all合共 for the next fifty years, the rate problem would be at the end of the century. All of us stand together in stands today. All of these efforts are efficient, but not sufficient. These conclusions are not based upon future, but simply upon the latest observation and analysis of the facts which equally available to all who will participate in common sense and common honesty. Problem Intensified With Education 4. We have been taught that education in its various forms will cause the race problem. Said a duristrict, "Industrial education will lead to problem." "Not so," rejoiced the cook-sure adversary, "the higher education is the parachute." This is the case of both philosophies. The race problem intensifies with the process of all forms of education. We have a diploma from Howard University, a bachelor from Harvard and Boston Tech with the heart and conscience unimproved, a maximum with increased intensity, and let us apply the sure remedy of education, and the problem will be surely solved. This process has been made possible by two or three generations with no very convincing conclusion. Not Preaching Doctrine Of Despair I am not preaching the doctrine of despair. I want the younger generation to open its eyes. I want to teach the blind impatient optimism which excludes in vain conceit and engages boasting, but a courage which entitles itself with the dangers and difficulties of life. I must assure its must be encountered. I want to warn the rising generation of the wrath to come. I want to leave out of its self-filled complacency that it can while away its while in care and enricting pleasure, and still expect to be carried to the skies of racial injustice. History discounts and discredits such fatal optimism. Pessimism! No. never. What man done has done to other people can do without it. But we must drink of the cup which they have drunk, and be bathed with the baptism with which they have been baptized. Have the patience to find the facts, the courage to face the facts and the resolution to work out our own salvation, even though it be difficult optimism. This is rational optimism.

MARSEILLES. FRANCE — I came near missing Marseilles, and if I had I would never have forgiven myself to indulge in the pleasure when I accepted a ride for a ticket to Geneva, the clerk told me there was no direct route, and I would either have to go back to Milan or to Marseilles, which one can see by the map is some way to Constantinople. Marseilles the smallest of the highest percentage of any European city, there are two black regiments in many other Negroes in the city, and Marseilles is the headquarters of a French Army. COLLEGE There are also Neaprogs from Africa, the French and British West Indies, the United States, Madagascar and elsewhere. More of them were brought here during the war, while others came as solos. Colored folk are so many that one alone is well held in the neighborhood, except in the latter, except that a person in higher complexion is rare. Million People As can be imagined then, Margaret is an excellent place to study war we in America call, race relations and both women say anything can do to help like to say a word about the city itself. Margaret is a city of nearly a million people is more than 1,000 years old and the city of the Roman it was named in Musilia, and was the capital of Carthage. Borders of history will recall that was once destroyed by Julius Caesar and is quarred with Pompey, who in Christian tradition Mary Macalene and Lazarus, the one who was said to have been raised from the dead by Christ, are said to have been the first misunderstood. Narrow Streets Since humanity has been living in this area so long a time, nature parishes of the city present a special interest, what is known as Le Vieux Port (the Old Port). Narrow winding streets on which the sun rarely shines; ships in the water; networks for them fill the street; filth, dissolve-looking lanes with clothing and bed linen in all stages of deterioration; human life; their tough, cobblestone, piling in and out of shops, or driving sharp bargains at stalls in the city; the crowd through that the crowd filter through almost in Indian file. Shops Of course there is also the aristocratic section. Three blocks away from the city's main churches in Europe with shops not much behind those of Paris, six hundred hotels and its aristocratic with a marble staircase in a significant one as I have Nutre Dame Cathedral On a mountain overlooking the city of the famous Cathedral of Notre Dame de la Garde. Worshipers at the church have an abundant supply of flowers, the trainway one has a rainy climb of several hundred yards. And the wind is so sharp that one is reminded of the land of zebras and that the rains can razze all that was there to expose their faces in the wind. For the length one gets a splendid view of the city with its reddish hue, and in the distance all the ports of the sand and the Chateau D'IL, made famous by Dumas in Monte Cristo.

He praises the war now, new-comer to the museum at all, second, at the time of writing this there is much to admire and appreciate.

One was to the effect that the Frenchmen were jealous of the black men and the Frenchwomen and would not give the Negroes work; the other reply was that there was no color prejudice of any sort; that the French people sometimes treated them better than their own people; and that as to their association with white women nobody seemed to trouble about it. Both the British West Indians and the Americans told me that they reported at the docks daily, and that sometimes they were given work, which many times they could not hold because they did not know the language. Both also said they had found France a paradise while the money lasted, but now it was the other way about. "Too much misery here," said one — a very evident fact. No Army Color Line As to the French West Indians all proudly said they had felt no prejudice and that the French people owned their own colored folk. Some of these were officers and non-commissioned officers in the white regiments. There is no color-line in the Negroes, Caucasians and Indo-Chinese being mixed in many regiments and in the military schools. Puritory White policemen, bartenders and beggars also told me that there never had been racial disturbances of the Negroes drinking at the same tables with white men and women; the same in the dance-halls, in some of which the black sailors just landed on the money burning a hole their pockets over just unusual attention from the ladies. As to the dives I shall not attempt to describe them except to say that If St. Peter has any sense I cannot believe in a purgatory for a Negro-hating crackers. Of course I have seen pretty much the same thing in Utah, California, Oregon, and other cities, their laws against race-mixing. Same Thing I saw pretty much the same in England, for the fact is that in these European countries with their comparative absence of colored women it is the white woman, just as in Africa with the absence of white women, the white men, if they are to have female association must seek the black woman. Say Mothers No Want To Live And Board Lilian Lottier Says Men Must Nhood But Accord Them More Sav Mothers No Longer Want To Live On Earth And Board In Heaver Lilin Lottier Says Men Must Only Glority, Motherhood But Accord Them More Practical Things In It By LILIAN LOTTIER We have had Mother's Day. All over this broad land motherhood and mothers were honored in sermon and son, by gifts and tokens, and in all the many ways that grateful men, the most important of the life. It is a fitting and graceful custom this, that specifically sets aside one day in the year to honor motherhood. It is a deep in the time of creation toward the much-to-be-desired future when the whole world will recognize motherhood for what it really is. The GREATEST, NORBES I, MOST, MORTAR PROFESSION ON EARTH. Mothers are responsible for most of the worthwhile accomplishments of the human race. Back of every great man whose name adorns the passes of disasters, some superer self-causing, having mother. Heredity and statistics both proclaim the fact that greatness in the human race comes through the mother. So after all the contributions made to the man in the world, in a very definite sense the contribution of his mother. Lilin, who goes to these queer people who often get nearer the truth that other mortals—have some of the mother, and there have been some discerning minds who have paid the most attention to them. For the more careless, unheeding world has waged on its unappreciative way. And women are now becoming to take motherhood as a form of social vanity, and they are given recognition of their mode of thought and appreciation in every sphere of activity than that of the home. And they have been known much more and—the you wouldn't think it...they are beginning to wonder if motherhood is all its been tracked up to be. Every month of most of the 200,000 pupils that minister to our spiritual needs, divines, learned and otherwise held up with mother as the one thing most glorious, desirable and with quality, bored attention and asked inwardly. WEIL, IF MOTHERHOO IS ALL, YOU SAY IT IS WHY DO NOT RECYTON AND CONSIDER Some one has said, "You should be back of every statue of Abraham Lincoln there would be a taller statue of his noble mother—a strong woman, nearly six feet tall who took care of the frontier with Indians and beards around her in her little hut without a window doing all the work, splitting the wood, crooking, and killing him on his way to greatness and useful service. For Lincoln's spirit was created in Nancy Hank's brain, and her body built his body, and back of the statue of almost every great man this world has ever known should be erected the statue of the woman who brought him into the world, contributed so largely to his success. Yes, it's a big job of motherhood. It is work much harder than any other job. You can sorrow and self-sacrifice. WITHOUT RECOGNITION AND GLORY, to a degree of which few men are capable. The world in general has not yet learned how to even the priceless motherhood that has built up keen intellects and great souls as well as healthy bodies. LD FARMS FARMILK refreshing!

As I said, I met some Negroes who said that there was race prejudice and that they had difficulty in getting into the French school. I jealousy of the Frenchmen. In view of what I saw I was inclined to discount this altogether until I discovered that those telling me so were North Africans, or Sidia, as they are Mohammedans The North African are little like for several alleged causes which I am told toare: that they are none to the use of knives, the use of knives as the Mississippi and Texas whites to the use of the rope and the torch; and also the fact that they are usually Menam- medan. Say anything against a North African and you will get quite from the average white Frenchman. North Africans A British West Indiap merchant, rather light in complexion, tells me that he once had an altercation with a conductor, and how surprised he was when the crowd took sides against him, shouting "Sidi" at him. Had the crowd known that he was not a North African, he said, its attitude would have been different. The man in which the crowd the manner in which the North African is recorded and that in which the other Negroes, is due not to a difference of color, but of culture. The North African is sometimes very No Clashes Of one thing I am certain; if Marseilles as is, were in America there would be many racial clashes, but in America there would be racial-terrorial society, or a collector of data, except myself.

But here they eat in the same place, and I am in New York alone—brother and musician, of whom I shall say more later, and he was living in one of the best hotels on the Camachere, Granada, and what is the cause of all this? Why is there trouble in America and none in France. In my real I shall tell what many French people the reason, adding that of my own. Oh, the poets—those queer people who often get nearer the truth than other mortals—have sings of the discerning minds who have paid her homage, but, for the most part, the careless, unheeding world has waged on its unappreciative way. To take kindness to take kindness at the world's own valuation. They see they can get infinitely more glory, honor, recognition and prosperity than that of the home.

Many women listened with palate, bored attention and saddened IS ALL, YOU SAY IT IS WHY DON'T YOU GIVE MOTHERS THE RECONGITION AND CONSIDERATION THAT DESERVES NOT ONE BAR BUT ALL THE YEAR ROUND? In the light of today's freedom and opportunities, can you blame these wide-awake, questioning women? Not only would they be mothers than anything else on earth, but even a woman with all her patience and endurance will eventually tire of a job that nets her a lot of money. Preachers used to live on earth and board in heaven. But, preachers aren't doing that any more. Women have been expected to work at the biggest heaven. But, in increasing numbers, WOMEN AREN'T DOING THAT ANY MORE. AND THE WORLD IS WELL RECOGNIZE THAT FACT WHETHER IT LIKES IT OR NOT. Women are tired of being in the "unskilled labor" class when other creatures offer her much more capacity to work and capacities to the highest bidder. She is saying to the world, "I have what you need and must have. I can render a service that no one else can. What is it for me?" Perhaps, after a sufficient number of "Mothers' days," perhaps, after the dire meaning and consequences of the motherhood that has entered the public consciousness, the world will wake up and put motherhood on the plane it deserves. It will see that no other profession will give woman any moreeward than this all-important one. And women will respond, don't make any mistake about that.

Did you ever notice steam pouring from a stream whistle a long distance? And you noticed that the pouring of the whistle sounded a new sound of the whistle ceased? That helps us to answer this question. A crash of thunder starts at the very same instant as the flash, but sound that we see much faster than sound that we see the flash before we hear the thunder. Sound travels through the air at a rate of about 1,100 feet a second. That fast, but light, sound can continue for a long time we see the lightning before we hear the thunder. The next time you are in a thunder storm, if you will take out your watch and count the number of times you see a flash of lightning till you hear a crash of thunder, you can tell very nearly how far away the lightning stroke comes, by simply the number of seconds by 1:100; the result is the approximate distance in feet. Were you ever near a tree or a house when the lightning strike comes, by flash and heard the thunder at the same time. —Elizabeth Hardy.

(Paul Laurence Dunbar June 27, 1872–1906) By RAE SPIEGEL (A. N. P.) Paul L. Dunbar's path was bound to be strewn with cruel thorns. The realization that he was not only unable to earn enough money to go to college but also to carry this struggle the blistering rays of the rising sun of his crushing limitations gave birth to an immense and burdensome pessimism in his mind. He rarely be seen from the following statement written to a friend November, 1894: "There is only one thing left to be done and I am too big a coward to do that." How did he endure the side robed robs of the Greatest American Negro poet? But it is the darkest just before dawn. Relief came from Dr. Henry A. Tobey. Mr Dunbar answered this letter of July 1894, which he thanked Dr. Tobey and added. "The time for the meeting of the Western Association of Writers was at hand. I am a member and I am a friend of the group. I come to me by meeting. All day Saturday and all day Sunday I tried every means to secure funds to go. I tried every known place, and at last Sunday night in despair. But Saturday could not sleep, so about half gave eleven I arose and between then and two a.m. read the paper which I was booked to read at the association. Then, still with no suggestion of any possibility of attending the meeting, I returned to bed and went to sleep about four o'clock. Three hours later your check arrived which took me to the desired place." Home Education Home Education MARY S. STOVER Elwin had run away. He was habitually prompt in returning from kindergarten, but this sunny day some lure of adventure and challenge, a certain mischievous maiden had tempted him to go on to Betty Lou's home instead of turning at his own corner. There had been a side yard before Elwin's frantic mother discovered the truant. The small lad is so loving and tender-hearted that he felt very sorry to have made his mama anxious, to have made his mother anxious, to be struck and repentant as she wished him to be, but of course the edge of the child's remorse was somewhat worn off by the afternoon when his resentment was made in full detail to several callers. Doubtless her chief motive was to deepen the good influence resulting from Elwin's toard repellence from his own influence, and to enjoy the spotlight" and to find pleasure in being so much the center of attention. His dramatic instinct evidently set him to living over that thrilling and not unpleasant experience of his own importance. When one woman appeared but slightly interested in the tale, Master Elwin edged up and pulled at her gown. "I was away up there, and I was pressed aggressively, with those bright, fun-loving brown eyes a-sparkle. "Yes, and weren't you terribly ashamed of frightening me so?" his mother put in.

Whereupon Nahoe Johnson told Uncle Mose that he couldn't watermelons that he couldn't spend one night in the "Widder Smith's house." Now, where widder Smith's house was, watermelons was filled with ghosts. "Des name de night" said Uncle Mose that no haints won't bodder wid me. No, nai. no haints won't bodder wid me. an' yo' watermelons is des ez good glue gone already." The details were arranged: judges who stay in the haunted house that very night. He got him some pine-knots to stay in the haunted house that very night. He carried along an extra plug of tobacco, secured a large drygoods box to be used for a chair, and then he He made a blaze and seated himself on the pine box. For a time he sung a song on his own amusement, as well as to keep him company. About midnight, feeling somewhat drowsy, Uncle Mose felt sick. He went to inspection. He examined every room in the house. His search revealed his search chuckling to himself. "I sho is makein' dis load uv water, know who he feelsin' oh chinsing know who he feelsin' oh a man myself; i ain't alfreed uv nothin' ain't! He sat on the box, and pretty soon he was dozing. It was not very long before he suddenly awoke. He hadidden fear. He was too frightened to move. Although he did not look around, he was conscious that there was a person standing on ends. He felt a cold chill run up and down his back. By that time he wondered what it was, was moving towards him. Still he did not move, because what it all the people said it was) stood over Uncle Mose for a little while and then quietly sat down on the box be- Uncle Mose looked straight into the fireplace, but his heart was beating to the room at that moment was like unto the room at that moment was like unto the death of death. Everything was sick and solemn, Mose could not be alone on his own heart being ghost finally broke the silence by saying, with a loud laugh: "He isn'tn't seem to be but two of us here tonight!" It was then that Uncle Mose looked around for the first time. As he did so he explained: "I am dis out dhonn't be but one!" And with that he jumped through the window, taking a part of the sash worn by him, and been waiting in the open air near the house, so as to watch the proceedings. They called to the house, and Mose ordered him to stop. They said that they were all there and would protect him. But Uncle Mose, as he kept on his death, By-and-by, from sheer exhaustion, he was compelled to stop for a little rest. He was wet with perspiration, and he was as limp as a wet dishall. But the poor old man had no sooner seated himself on a stone by the roadside than he sat and sits beside him on one more. "Huh! said the ghost. "You seem to have made pretty good time tonight, but I have done n'tnothin' to what I swinger do winter." And up he jumped and lit out one corner.

An action does not need to be held before a child's doing, or repeating it, merely indulging it, there serves as a strong suggestion — especially if we picture him doing something. Some nature respond more than others to such unintended suggestions, but there is danger in retaliation. It is better to resist of his own misdoings. It may make him consider his little self a stranger monster of iniquity; the more comical the better, a sense of pride pleasure and excitement. It is but human for elfs and boys to cherish the secret notion that a bad omnipotence is preferable to no omnipotence at all, then more interesting and likable when a little naughty! Usually, too, the mischief was led on or abetted by some enterprising young associates or by some who believed to the one wholly to blame. Demonstration of that child may cast an alluring glamour over a temper whose influence is thus strengthened instead in recalling times when our own chief wrong-doings were reported and discussed before us. While the effect was not in all cases the same, I believe that shall find the most frequently used anlogy of a theatrical spotlight and posing under it conveys an idea of the morbid influence which undue public has upon persons, especially sensitive to such focusing of the attention. So whatever 'the children may do, our wiser course is to "turn off the spotlight" and thus avoid realism to them preamble and ask the university to point out too many attention to what they have done, be it excellent or blameworthy. delivered with your Milk if ordered a day ahead ER FOLK The following on sale until close of business Saturday, July 2nd SPECIAL PRICES ON Hams & Picnics Sunshine & N.

Build More Stores, Banks And Business, Says Arnold Page Eighteen BUSINE A WEEKL Co Information Bureau: This o ng, business opportunities stock Build More Ste And Business During the past four weeks city, county, high schools, universities, and colleges have loosed upon the country thousands of students. The parents of those graduates and the students who received their diplomas, were filled with much ecstacy and joy as a result of receiving some kind of education. Education is one thing and making good is another. The more education one has the more one aspires for higher things. What are those young men and women going to do after they go home and tell the home folks about how colleges and universities are operated if they have any help they in life to make their livelihood, and there is no opportunity for employment? Ralph Emerson, the great American poet, said that "we are not lawyers, doctors, farmers nor ministers; we are all of them, each one stunted out with some one thing to do—now find yourself". If those boys and girls have not selected a certain thing to do it that they should have stayed away from school. You cannot educate men and women without lifting them above mediocrity. — This being true, colored men and women all over the country must double their efforts towards building more grocery stores, drug stores, banks, and insurance companies that those who have never worked for some particular occupation to earn an hour's pay may have employment. — this is our sacred duty. If we are to raise an honorable group of young men and women to a higher level from our graduates, we must organize department stores and other enterprises which give them work. More business by colored men should be the slogan of the college graduate. Why gloss over an education if you have to resort to mental labor? SLIGHT ADVANCE IN EMPLOYMENT DURING MAY Bulletin No. 15, of the Industrial Department of the National Urban League summarizes employment conditions as follows: While reports from New Jersey, Ohio, Illinois, Missouri, Texas, Maryland, Virginia, Oregon, Michigan, Indiana, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Arkansas, Massachusetts and New York showed a little chance in the employment status of Negro wage-earners — a situation among others experienced throughout the country — some little advance was required for both Negro women and men. The notable improvements were reported from Cleveland, Plainfield and Boston. The continuous rainfall interfered with the usual outdoor spring activities, but did not prevent the employment of many men in parts of the middle west who had experienced a long period of unemployment. Favorable Conditions In Cleveland there was a "slow but steady increase in opportunities offered men in skilled work." Two openings in positions formerly held by other workers were reported and placements showed a decided increase over those of the previous month. In Plainfield N.J. a local men's museum metal toys gave employment to 50 colored girls, and reported that their work was very satisfactory. In Boston 25 new openings were obtained in hotels and 15 factory placements were secured in jobs that had not been filled by Negroes. From Texas word came labor as assembling new places occupied by Mexicans, and many city report activity in the building trades. Miscellaneous The American Federation of Musicians protested against and thereby removed discriminatory practices against Negroes in dining rooms and hotels during its annual session Baltimore's museum this year its organization's insistence brot about similar results in St. Louis.
