Electric lights of all colors have been string along all the buildings that the traders will find themselves encompassed on either hand by illuminations of dazzling beauty. Many of the advance guard headquarters have already become infested with Bowyer peddlers with their souvenirs and wares of all descriptions.
From police headquarters, came the police officers who said that special details of detectives who know many white and colored crooks of the city, will be sent uptown Saturday night and remain one of the most dangerous forces in checking them in their expedited operations of hold ups and robberies. It is said that some of the crooks with long records seen among the police forces are warning and detained for a while.

Seventh avenue syndicates are having trouble in being able to agree upon a fixed scale of prices for liquor room stuff that the side street business will do to a rushing business at old prices. It is generally known in Harlem that the side street second class bootleggers put off pure and genuine stuff. But the barroom bootleggers will be able to put on an advance in their wet goods. It had been stated from the Elk headquarters that visiting Elks should only visit places for their owners where they saw signs and cards displayed with Elk heads. In some way this information leaked out and immediately there went up many colorful Elk headings in the bar room displaying Elk heads and big letters. "Hello Elk."
The side street bootleggers conducting "blind tigers," have decided to let the "Third Rall" and "Blockchains" which are the leading brands, remain at their regular prices, 50 cents. A plan to kidnap many of the delegates, that was rapidly gaining ground, is believed to have been broken up by the general committee. It is uncertain whether an upcoming boat and train with cards inviting delegates to their homes for lodging at a reduced rate.

"From June until September," the Bulletin continues, "the tourist trade is in full swing, and in order to accommodate the many rural people who come to Canada west and the west climate, the Canadian National Railways increases its train service. This means that a number of trains are operated on the Canadian coast. To meet this need, some sixteen men, all of them residents of Canada some are returned soldiers were hired and given a course of training in the school for port workers published in the terminals in Wimpern.
After these men were given full training in the duties of sleeping car porters with the purpose they were freewheelers on the roll. "Again," according to the Bulletin, "early in June the National Canadian Railways imported fifteen student drivers from a university, a college for colored people in the Southeastern states, to work for them as sleeping car porters for a period of three months, and to train them in the same course of training as the other porters, with this difference they were paid whilst training, and provided with room and board to be on their leave. In this privilege, the Canadian citizens who first underwent training were soon laid off because, the officials said, work was slack, although the porters were still working. Also the starting wage for porters is $75 per month with uniform provided by the company, and meals while working. Citizens who provided themselves a home and meals while on duty. The college students, however, are provided with room and board all the time and are in the training company and are paid the regulation wage beside.
This, in the mind of the Union workers, raises a very important point in so far as the company has pleaded on several occasions that it would not afford or an increase in wages, that they could not afford to give them one.
Protest has been made to the minister of railways.

INTRA-RACE WAR LOOMS AS ELKS CONVENE IN N. Y.
Charge J. Dalmus Steele Is
Backed By West Indian
Group Who Seek Control
BALTIMORE CITY WANTS
THE NEXT CONVENTION
"Monumental" And "Pride
Of Baltimore" In United
Effort To Get Next Meet
NEW YORK.—That much of the controversy over the Elks' Convention going to New York City was the outgrowth of racial ambitions rather than personal desires of the respective candidates was brought to light this week when it was charged that J. Dalmus Steele, is being backed by the West Indian group, so they might control the order.
J. Steele, former Grand Exalted Ruler of Mammatthan Lodge 45, officially announced his candidacy has been a range factor in the coming election for some time and is said to be backed by a well-oiled machine which is expected to sweep him into office.
His countrymen, in and about New York have pledged Mr. Steele to see him tried with that same loyalty that carried Marcel Garvey to embark mounts as an organizer in the election of Mr. Steele will lead to a blissfulness in the order are programmed both a Finley Wilson the house of the late Edward Henry of Philadelphia to off set, what they term, the aim monopoly. Sentiment at the present time is strongly in favor of
Steele's Platform
When interviewed Steele said that he wanted to make it known that he is not making a personal fight on the present incumbent and expressed himself relative to J. Finley Wilson, the present grand exalted ruler of the state. "There is no personal feeling between Wilson and myself. I like upon him as being a fine man. He has made fine progress in five years in building up the order numbered. But the present demands a larger program." He said that if the Eke were to make the progress a good, a program that will embroom many features.
"I believe in a progressive platform," he said. "If elected to office, said Steele. "I will advocate the following measures, two terms of one year each for grand exalted ruler, four terms of one year each for grand secretary and treasurer, and a headquarters building, the site to be decided upon by the grand lodge.
I would also advocate more power to State association, and reduction of per capita tax, modification of the grand exalted ruler's power, mortgage protection, and be set aside for that purpose, $10,000 to be divided to the four leading insurance companies as an investment, and a ten cent annuity. I would also provide a deceive fund in worthy cases within or without the order."
Virginia Insurgent
As to states, the three candidates are pretty evenly matched, but Mr. Wilson has the edge on his opponents by virtue of his experience, he has won the last year. New York and parts of New Jersey are strong for Mr. Steele while Judge Jimie controls the Philadelphia district, and he will have a steer following in Ohio. Mr. Wilson is expected to carry the west and south sides of the district but be the Virginia section due to friction resulting from the Richmond convention. He is expected to win the convention. The fraternity lodges he said to have gone after Wilson's scalp at the Cleveland convention because he received an allied deal when the caterpillar orders failed to produce figures showing where they had made expenditures to the amount demanded by the Cleveland district. The demands of the host orders once branded as a "grand stand" the lodges in a "hard section" of the convention to Mr. Wilson since the convention. Cleveland Doubtful The support the lodges will receive the Cleveland and Ohio lodges is dubious after his failure to

wife's throat, with the imitation of testing her, the witness testified.
When he entered the storeroom on this second occasion, the witness he had carried in his hand, razor he had borrowed from another sailor, and Badke got up and went out, Mr Mintzer took the cook to "I grabbed my wife." Battie's confession, which was imitated by the witness, read "on my right, I saw her on my right, I said, I told you not to do it. I was in a frenzy and I cut her, not intention to murder her. I saw her with its witness continued that when its wife had tauntedly asked him, that he would do if she "got another man," he showed her the raiser and said
Signed In Porto Roco
When called as a witness, Capt. Lawry explained that he signed on as master of the Kissimmee ship and that he was the former cook having been declared until he hired Battie, and at the latter's request, also his wife, Battie for $80 a month and his wife, Battie for $40 a month. A few hours before the schooner with her crew of ten persons sailed for the gold coast on Dec. 17, Capt. Lawry testified, a company had been authorized for permission to go on board, but was refused. Mr. Tuttle had Emily Zanard brought into company and Capt. Lawry identified her as the girl who was at the pier in San Juan.
Battle Under Arrest
"Battle got hold of a file somewhere and filed off his irons and when we got to Accra, the second port we touched after the murder of his wife he jumped overboard on Capt. Lawry. "But he was frightened of the sharks and had used to get him back on board, so we threw him and pulled him out."
"Damned Fool"
"You don't blame me for trying to get away, do you? he said to me when he was naked on the floor, told him he didn't blame him for trying to get away, but I said. I blame you for being a damned fool and not keeping going when you were in the house." When he reported the murder to the British authorities at the first port the Kingsway reached, Sekouba said he had better keep his men on board and pay them only £3. Capt. Lawry testified. The crew promptly worked and demanded £10, and beamed them that sum, the witness declared. "Why did you not put them all in irons?" asked United fates Attorney Tuttle. He insisted the case Government.
"That would have been inviting trouble," replied Capt. Lawry.
No Irons
Walderman Karl Badke, the white German donkey engineer on board with whom the murderer was working, an affair, was always making trouble, the Captain declared. "On one occasion we got into an affair and we were pumping the blue water out of the shin." Capt. Lawley continued. "He was insolent and the Federal Government; they wouldn't do anything for you, he said to me, I could get you killed in New York." He got you killed get you killed for $35." I answered.
The Girl Enters
Before yesterday Assistant United States Attorney Kenneth P. Simpson, who prepared the case, was at a loss to understand the case. He left her behind, and why, if he loved his wife, he used Badke on in the affair, as he later has testified.
But Badke said Mrs. Battles told him that if she indicted her, he would off on the Penner. I never would have known he was aboard the Kingsway.
Battles before signing up for the African trip, insisted his wife "be taken alone, and I will not be taken." His original intention to take the Porto Rean girl with him, and desert Mrs. Battles.
Wife Was Wise
But Mrs. Battie learned of her husband's sailing evidence, after which followed the course of events which may end in Battie being charged for murder on the high seas or prescribed by the United States. Of Miss Zamot, Anderson said he saw her the evening before the Kingsway saled. Battie, his wife and the Zamot girl were in the mess room talking Spanish, according to witness. The girl in tears, he said.
Razor Identified
After several hours, their talk broke up. Anderson said. Battice escorted Zamot from the cabin and escorted Anderson from which she had boarded the ship. On the way to shore she tried to jump overboard from the little boat, he said. Anderson said he hopped overboard with wife "She tried to commit suicide."

The lilies of infants and children should be so well known to the youngest of mothers that a reminder or a repetition of the symptoms of illness seems unnecessary, yet there are some mothers who overlook a feverish condition, a little colic, or a disposition to be irritable. If not corrected they may lead to serious sickness. And to correct them, to bring Baby back to its happy self, is so easy by the use of Castoria—a medicine prepared just for infants and children. It will regulate the bowels (not force them), aid digestion and so bring quiet and rest.
Fletcher's Castoria has been doing this for over 30 years; regulating the stomach and bowels of infants and children. It has replaced the nauseate Castor Oil, so-called Soothing Syrups, poisonous Paregoric and other vicious concoctions in the homes of true and honest mothers—mothers who love their children.
Those mothers will give their babies foods and medicines especially prepared for infants and children.
To avoid imitations, always look for the signature of Castor Fletcher. Proven directions on each package. Physicians everywhere recommend it.

Deadlock Continues In Balto. County
The school situation remains deadlocked in Baltimore county as the county-wide parents-teachers federation goes into session Wednesday
The parents' organization demands a high school somewhere in the county which shall be open to all grammar school graduates that the school has outlived its 19 years and at present colleged schools stop at the seventh campus. They aver also that both Catensville and Towson have sent children eligible for high school to have such a building at either
or portions.
To these demands the school authorities turn a deaf ear. They refuse to build any high school for colored children. They reserve the right to send one tenth of the eligibles to high school in Baltimore with tuition paid. The others, school officials say, "should go to work." The county taxpayers have two courses open. The first is to appeal to the school officials and county commissioners. The second is to place the sole cases in the hands of a suitable lawyer who shall seek relief through the courts.
Frankly the AFRO has little confidence in the first procedure. The county's educational record is so beaten with such unfair practices as unequal school terms, lower salaries and inferior supervision that nothing less than a house cleaning can bring results. Voluntarily this is unlikely so that eventual records must be had to the course. Time money and payment will be saved by a manly and intelligent appeal to the courts of justice.
The taxpayers must ask the courts if the county has the right to maintain six high schools for whites and bar colored. They must ask why the county spends over $50,000 a year to transport white children to district schools and compels colored parents to spend their own carriage. While we are in it, then, the question of teachers' salaries. Why should the teachers' teacher be paid from $200 to $1000 a year less for work.
for the thing the state are on Baltimore County. May her leaders have the wisdom and the courage to fight.
Julius Rosenwald
Mr. Dilis Rosenwald, Jewish merchant and philanthropist, celebrated a Jewish holiday last Friday.
Readers of the AFRO-AMERICAN who might be inclined to doubt the essential humanity of the American white man, should remember the work of Mr. Rosenwald and face the future with fresh hope.
Mr. Rosenwald celebrated his 50th birthday by giving away $100,000. In this sum was $25,000 for Negro education to be distributed at the dissection of Booker T. Washington then principal of Tuskegee. Mr. Washington secured the consent of the giver to use a small part of this sum in building six rural schools in Alabama, under the agreement that the school community in each case should match Mr. Rosenwald.
This was the beginning, and the interest and enthusiasm created in that benefited southland among folk who were surprised that anyone was interested enough in them to defray half the cost of a school building, increased unbelievably.
Today the United States is dotted with 434 complete "Rosenwald" schools. Many are in various stages of construction.
These buildings cost $14,626.840. Of this amount Mr. Rosenwald gave $2,621.814; whites $692.142 from public schools fund $6,842.599 and colored people themselves gave $3,110.453. Some 870 teachers instruct 380 pupils in these "Rosenwald" schools.
In fifteen years, Mr. Rosenwald has probably been the benefactor of half a million school children. Besides this Mr. Rosenwald back in 1911 made a proposition thru the Y. M. C. A. to donate $25,000 to every city in the U. S. which would raise by public subscription $75,000 for a eighteen such buildings have been erected costing over three million. Mr. Rosenwald gave nearly a half million of this amount.
In the above paragraphs are cited two of Mr. Rosenwald's particular benefactions. There are others indicate that he believes in our future, that is willing to help us help ourselves.
When Rosenwald enumerates the list of organizations to which he belongs, he calls attention to the N. A. A. C. P. and the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History. It's characteristic of him that he does not consider himself too great to belong to them.

A National Association for the Advancement of the Irish People is in the making. It will foster a nationwide movement to convince the public that the Irish are dignified. A recent tendency of motion picture producers to poke fun at the Irish is responsible for this campaign. A film released recently shows two Irish families fighting for precedence and both sides frequently engaged in undignified squabbles and fights. The AFRO sympathizes with the Irish in their fight to protect their race from ridicule. At the same time we trust this incident will prove a lesson to them.
While the film makers are about it, we recommend a film showing the stinginess of the Scot, another series exposing drunkenness among the Germans, still another portraying the English love of betting and gambling, and the American's crudeness and bragadocia.
One series of such films would make each of these groups understand why the black man protests against the "Birth of a Nation" which Americans have worn out at home and are now exhibiting abroad. They would understand also why it isn't fair to our group to portray them always in pictures as running from ghosts or as an "African dodger."
The use of the movies to ridicule a race is vicious, and the fact that the "fighting Irish" are getting a taste of it is bound to have a good effect upon productions of the future.
"For Colored"
In another column an AFRO representative travelling thru the South tells of the miserable accommodations afforded on jim crow trains in Dixie.
Between Baltimore and Jacksonville, Florida and Memphis, it is possible to secure pullman accommodations generally. Beyond these points it is always doubtful. The securing of such accommodations depends not upon the purchaser having the necessary fare, but upon the moratorium of the station and the length of the train. For short trips to four and five hours there remains the jim crow car.
The M. K. and T. road operating in Texas announced recently that all signs on stations, in coaches and in wash rooms have been changed to read "For Colored" instead of "gross." Mobil will also also be placed in "colored" coaches for the first time says the announcement, but both sexes will continue to use the same lavatories.
These improvements are due. it is further announced, to the intercession of the Knights of Pythias who pointed out to the railway management that our folk spent $100,000 a year in Texas in transportation of fraternal delegates to and from conventions.
Our suggestion to the Texas Knights of Pythias that they request the ranks to tear down the "For Colored" signs and put up in their place "For Everybody."
Until such a change is made we suggest further that the practice of state conventions in Texas be discontinued in favor of district conventions which every delegate can attend without using the railroad.
During the sessions of the National Business League last week, it is estimated that more than 60 addresses were delivered. We also understood money talks, but we hope no single delegate attempted to listen to all of them.
Does Liberia Lack Statesmanship?
According to the Kansas City "Star," the recent payment of the Liberian debt to the States has made the statesmanship in Liberia is at a very low ebb. In other words, it was very undipolicative for this small independence to promptly pay up an honest debt, without asking the States to discuss it, without the Dallas "News." Kansas City "Star" further explains, "The Powers first took favorable notice of Liberia when it got a loan from the United States. The Powers said to each other, 'We have done a good job and should distinct time and should be encouraged.' True, it got only a small loan, but by firmly declining to pay it back and otherwise cultivating its credit, it seemed to the Powers, it might go forward. It has applied once. It has paid its debt, and must henceforth be regarded with scorn. As a country it may have improved its credit, but what does that amount to, when its "statesmanship" has no credit at
The Cincinnati "Enquirer" says, "She (Liberia) has set an example that larger national corporations, Baltimore "Evening Sun" adds, "Under the circumstances, special honor should be given to Liberia by an American taxpayer." Taxpayers think, "Liberia thinks, "When the population and poverty of Liberia are considered, and we recall the amazing historical background of that little independence," in an easy master for Liberia to discharge this debt."

DAYBYDAY
Baltimore mourned this week the tragic killing of William H. Doehler, one of the best, bravest officers in the city, by a suspected criminal whom he was arresting. The unusual number of such kings in the Northwestern district must give food for deep thinking. Two weeks ago at a session of the Magistrate's Court Captain Lastner upbraided an officer who had been a drunken man he had arrested and whom he testified had unwittingly shoved him in the jaw. The officer must have been "dead raining" on the police, although there are many conscientious and efficient officers in the Northwestern District. incidents like this make you underestimate the criminal instincts which result in such as the Doehler tragedy.
Henry Ford And Race Prejudice
Henry Ford, driven into a corner by organized Jews, has raised the white flag and his Dearborn brother by organized Jews, the Ford Millions, will no longer vent its spleen against the Jewish race. The way Jews in America have met the persistent criticisms and the insistence that should interest every race leader in this country. For years his publications slashed this race of men as blood-sucking, money grabbing Spikebobs and carried on a world against their financial institutions. But evidently driven to bay, Ford now comes out in a complete shift to cease "causing them mental anguish, but make such amends as possible for the wrong he has done them. Ford will understand the whole matter better, however, when you read the following day announcements coming from Jewish sources that damage suits for a million and a million against Ford products will be dropped. The feud between Ford and the Jews is said to have begun with a transaction and it will end with one.
Besides the Catholic church, there is perhaps no organized force to help the poor. We have the five million Jews. They know how to harness their dollars and votes into a fighting team. They know how to build a world about what you like. The law of survival of the fittest" still dominates and nature itself seems to have a slackening tendency to create unintended enemies. When Henry Ford began his tirade against the Jews as a race, they did not whine; they did not protest; they did not intervene in these United States Jews commenced to strike their financial daggers into Ford products in the business places where once you saw fords standing, you now see other makes of cheap cars. It is not that the fords were built with the damage suit brought against Ford will cost him a million.
There are just five million Jews in America as against twelve colored Jews, who have faced more persistent prejudice and opposition in history than even colored folk, are more likely to be locked on hundreds of the most powerful boards in this country and in every community where even a handful of them have given their ability to given them places of influence and power. THE SECRET IS THAT THEY WON'T SLEEP OUT THEIR LEADERS ARE MADE FROM WITHIN. But above all they have developed for themselves a culture of pride and which they would not exchange for that of any other race. They cultivate trade relations with other cultures to make their dollars count in a fight. When a public official takes a stand against them they now stand as well as his political connections. When the twelve million of our group learn to do the same thing, public opinion will think more seriously before they act.
Farmer Reports
Richard G. M. Miller, of Manning, South Carolina, presents an excelent demonstration by the Miller owner, a two-horse farm. Down in Manning, South Carolina, you can buy a two-horse farm of fifteen acres in the farm in Baltimore's alleys. When the boll weevil and slump in the cotton market impoverished the farmer, the Miller does not desert his farm and go north. He simply changed crops. Except for four acres he eliminates weevil and slump according to a certified report of his year's work. besides supplying his family with food, he has still 400 bushels of corn which will bring $1 per bushel. For net condition, he can spend $1,000 for clothes, amusements and incidentals for his family and bank bank. He may farm the Miller farm he commands an income of $3,500. He may miss the high tension life of the city, but labor the farmer creates no nightmares for him.
That is why we must drive the land out of the South. With the exception of the west, it is on the eastern side, and cheap land can still be acquired.

Remember The Parents Back At Home
To The Editor:
You sons and daughters who have left should not forget the old folks at home. Mother and father get homestick for you at times. You think because they live in a city and you know how they will not miss you very much.
Friends and relatives cannot take your place with mother and father. If you are a short distance away from you, you have some evening or some Sunday afternoon. Whenever you don't go, to see them there is sadness in their hearts. You will have a father, and mother to whom you can go to in time of trouble or in joy. Don't wake up the loss when it is too much put any more brightness into their lives.

Some patients have funny ideas about hospital regulations. Some patients have funny ideas about hospitals that have whatever they want, some think they can get out of bed whenever they please, go home when they feel like it, and some do and bring the hospital to another hospital and give the one they left a bad name. One can't go by what all patients say about a hospital.
Mark Freedman's treats their help about as well as any hospital in the District. For an instance, the orderlies' drawing room is as good as any in the city, and a good deal of additional work done at Freedman's in the last three or four years, so there can't be much money turned back in the U.

Shortest Short Stories
she was a stoey glint in Henry's eye as Maryg fitted down the steps to his waiting roadster, happily unaware that he had learned about her affair with Fred.
She felt the must sense of security she had tucked down beside him taking no notice of the determined way his foot pressed down on the accelerator and the car shot forward.
Unmindful of them on and out into the open country, she was surprised and brightened when the car came to a sudden stop in an isolated spot.
Maryg flashed the man angrily. "I have told you or the last time I saw you," Fred Morcely and tonight-"Bang!".
"That one short report rent the stillness of the night followed by a whizzing sound, then all was calm. Gods have it," she added, "that back tire has borne out and I haven't got a spare."
Innocence Betrayed
It was the old, old story of the country girl who had been betrayed by her lover. The city was cold and cruel but she could see. She was almost starving herself and knew how that little thing in the basket-must be suffering.
She gathered it up, wrapped it in a piece of burrow, and biting it out in someone's doorstep. Thoughts of her being treated sent a chill to her heart—"I rather see you dead than that. She made her way to Pratt Street what."
When the mounted policeman disappeared in the distance she crept to the water's edge and dropped her precious bundle into the swirling water.
There was a sigh of relief behind her tears as she whispered, "I couldn't bear to see you begging for food in your silent way when I had such a nice kitty too."
A Red Plot
Two suspicious characters were seen loitering on Pennsylvania Avenue. They were men, from New York, their earnestness it could be seen that a dark plot was brewing. The papers full of the Sacco-Vanzetti bombings and the nation aroused over the Sacco outrages. They entered one of the public buildings unnoticed. The eye of an attendant was drawn to one just as he jazzy, uncoiling, unlike a bomb; but before he could stay his hand the informal machine shot forward on its errand of destruction. He roar, a rumble and a crash. The pair laughed hysterically as bits of wood went flying through the air. "It's a strike," they cried as the boy gathered on the scattered ten piles and set them up for the next roll.
Smile, start anew,
Smile away your blues;
Smile, this means you,
Smile, and you can't lose.
If a doctor says you'll die,
Never give up hope;
Smile and make him out a liar,
Smile has got the dope.
If you're broke without a jit
Smile just the same;
If you're a catcher without a mit,
Smile and dear the blame.
If you're without a place to sleep, Broke and hungry too; Never, never, acknowledge defeat, Smile your way on through.
Smile is the cheapest thing on earth. Yet smile is hard to buy; Smile is gifted you from birth; Smile in the place of cry.
If people speak ill of you thru life; It's not compelled to be true; They even talk about Jesus Christ. So you know they'll talk about you.
When life itself seems empty, And your heart dripping with tears; When from friends you get no sympathy With your agony, perpetual like years;
Don't tuck your head in sorrow, As nothing lasts all the while; Just tell about the suffering of Christ
And smile, damn you, Smile.

MILD MUSINGS By OBIE McGOLLUM
My Faith
I smile at them
Who say they know not God
and that he sows
Decay beneath the sod;
Believing not
Nor caring to believe,
For shadowed eyes
Are easy to deceive.
The preacher's moan.
The choir's walling chant
Beat not my faith
And I will not recant.
The faith I have
And I may tread
Is all a thing my own,
My spirit paths alone.
I preach no creed
And sing no holy lay
But goodness in
My own and simple way.
At every dawn
What should the sun
I know is there
Behind it all a "One".
A spirit all
Embracing in its sway
That guides my paths
At darkest night and day.
My fellows' creeds,
I claim not as my own,
But I do. One.
Put all my faith alone.
Poem This Week
Trusty, dusky, widt, true,
With eyes of gold and bramble-dew
Steei true and blade straight
The great Artificer made my mate.
Honor, anger, valor, fire.
A love that life could never tire,
Death quench, or evil stir.
The mighty Master gave to her.
Teacher, tender comrade, wife,
A fellow-farer true thrue, life
Heart-whole and soul-free,
The August Father gave to me.
HISTORY
FROM THE ANTI SLAVERY RECORDS
You know that amongst the two and a half millions of blacks in our nation, the laws recognize no such thing as marriage.
Ne regular minister of the gospel ever solemnizes the ordinance for them. If he did, he would be taking promises which the parties have no power to fulfill. He dare not mock God by solemnly exacting covenants which are mere nullities. If the blacks, without license, get some one of their own number, (unathortized of course.) to perform the semblance of a ceremony, it is looked upon as mere mockery.
The master who sells them apart, can be called to no account for it. It is known that the law allows it. The slave who changes states or countries is never asked when he chooses one whom he calls wife, whether he did not leave one behind him. He is not asked this when he joins the
You know that several millions of human beings are raised to a perfect system or promote the fact that males and females are placed with their beds and ost outfitting, or if not in the same room their apartments, that these millions have no character to lose, or reputation to sustain, you know that these deathless beings are trained up to inhabit. Of the grown females belonging to more than two millions of our race nearly every one is either a prostitute or an adulteress, and every grown male either a fornicator or an adulterer.

THE BEST COLORED WEEKLY, 1928-29.
Well Folks—Here is another note from a well wisher. It says, "I was born to a girl named what W. V. T. said last week. Strut your birthday stuff. You even make what I wish I had a birthday. Our family Bible got washed away in the flood. I am afraid I don't know how old I am or on what day I was born.
"I feel like I'm forty and then I look at my old head in the look; and that tells me I am 45 at least."
This leads me to remark that everybody ought to have a birthday, but I didn't. My father born in slavery, didn't know when he was born so he selected December 25th, Christmas Day as his birthday. In this respect I think he was wiser than either Frederick Douglass or Booker T. Washington. Neither of these eminent Americans ever had a birthday reception or a birthday cake. That kind of business is almost for the fellow "who curses for everybody else."

The Last Line
Kelly Miller Says
Mr. Coolidge has rendered the country the greatest service of his career by refusing to stand for a third term.
Sad experience proves that frail humanity must not be trusted with unlimited power. The only way to prevent the abuse of power is to limit the use of it.
President Coolidge has completed four years in the White House. He has declared in Delphic terms that the United States is the most successful. The past four years have revealed the full measure of his character and caliber. His lines have been definitely laid; his brand of statesmanship has been determined.
The character of Calvin Coolidge is as rigid as that of John Calvin his behavior is marked by his character. He lacks the adaptability of the statesman but is actuated by the internal motive spring of the moralist. He lacks the ability to next seventeen months from what he has done in the past forty-eight months. He lacks the spectacularism of an age of agility of Woodrow Wilson, who was too proud to fight before entering into war, demanded peace without victory after entering in, and was quenaded after the war was over.
Calvin Coolidge is the same yesterday, today, and for ever more. He does not bring things to pass, but gives them to others who are passing. His virtues are potential, and not dynamic; he is essentially the laissez faire philosophy. His benevolence is in the passive voice. He is indeed an ideal president in the world, who evits to reform and no truements to be remedied.
If we ever reach the point of peace on earth and good will among men, an ideal ruler in perpetuity. His are the homely virtues of industry, thrift, and economy. He lacks the heroic motive to nap in the midst of labor or to have itself unseemly. He is devoid of the inertility and courage to grapple with the rapid approaching change in agriculture and industry, as a Roosevelt would do. He indulges in mind moralizations over the atoning spirit in trying to check its menace. He keenly regrets the overthrow of the Fourteenth, Fifteenth, and Eighteenth centuries, and efforts to fortify his righteous regret force and effectiveness. He relies on the machinery of the law to right the wrongs and to ensure that the community unmindfully unfeelful of the fact that the law has no reformatory potency. The law was enacted to preserve things as they are, and not to transform what is into what was.
The perfect engineer operates machinery that it is designed to work in, smooth working order, but it requires the creative imagination of inventor to design machinery.
Boston Police Strike
To any one who has not dis covered the key to the Coolidge character, he stands out as a puzzling eminent man, and the Boston police strike stands in bold relief among his public acts. It is indeed so singularly solitary that one might fairly suspect that he could not have been a public servant rather than spontaneous action. As vice president his character was so tedious and common place, that he could not have been a public servant, and his selection for the headship of the ticket was not dreamed of by a single controlling politician He became president by the machinery of his office of character was most needed. The Auguean stubs of public corruption must be cleaned. He at the machinery of his office of character was most needed. By the Herculean task was accomplished. Not a single word of public condemnation ever fell from his indignant lips. Turned out with fire he purged by use of the spade and shovel. By virtue of his passivity of character and lack of noble rage he seized control of the house, leaving an unavailable taste in the mouth of the nation.
In the midst of the rumors of corruption of senators, the senator and albeit his heart must be solely troubled. Although he remains impartured in the midst of the rumors, he believes that his heart is true and righteous altogether.
It is amazing how the people believe in him although he does not always bring forth what he has tumult down, almost every important measure which he has advanced or advanced many important measures which he has opposed to him. He has the unanimous nomination for self-sacrifice. He vetoed the soldier's bonus, and he negates measures for farmers' relief, but the farmers want him again. There is not a single important public question like the question of like and yet the Lion of Idaho and lamb of Vermont are genial political and bed fellows. Himself a man who is poor to point he but ideal of the rich and the mighty.

A man wholly devoid of imagination, he has gripped the approval of the common people. Do you ask: "What manner of this? He is a man of simple sincerity of your heart of character and passivity of temperament. He will not be remembered in history, for he never rises to the heights that stir the emotions and stimulate the imagination. Rybody likes him, and loves the embodiment of the common place which after all is pleasing to the common man.
Will Not Stand
For Re-nomination
President Coolidge has declared that he will not stand for renomination. He used the term unjustified Anglo-Saxon folk. Those who believe that he is paternal with words do great injustice to his character. If we had taken his name, the character instead of the political signs of the times, we would have seen, that like Luther at Wetlands, he could do otherwise.
John Coolidge is the embodiment of American traditions at their best. He is a genuine American, one hundred per cent pure. Of undistributed Anglo-Saxon traditions of his race. His early character was formed in the midst of the New England hills, remote from corruption. He is full of the faith of the fathers. Of a conservative nature, he believes in holding fast to what is proven to be good. He goes on to add new things. All of his public utterances, but few expressions rise above the level of the common place. This lack of commitment does justice to his gentleness.
If a single of his public utterances chances to survive his term are low, the maxim—"America must be American." If the nation must finish its course, it must succeed. If nations are not always written in their constitutions; they live in the faith and feeling and the fancy of the
Limitation of the tenure of office constitutes the profundest constraint on the chief magistrate to a limited tenure, of not more than eight years duration is not due wholly to our reverence for George Washington, but to very nature and genius of free government. Coolidge could not violate this tradition, which to him was necessary for fixing his character. He would no longer be the Coolidge that he is by nature and nurture but a vain speculator. He would never be by shaping his sail to the prevailing wind or political fortune.
Rebuke To
Fawning Politicians
Mr. Coolidge has rendered the country the greatest service of his career in the term. As things now appear he can be renamed and elected without turning his little finger. His renunciation forever puts him in a position to self-seeking politician. Had he chosen to stand for self succession, for a third term, then why did he choose to serve another term coexistent with his powers or his ambition? Every successor would choose to follow his succession. Sad experience proves that frail human nature must not be trusted with unlimited power. The power he has to limit is power to limit the exercise of it. Whenever other act of Calvin Coolidge shall have been forgotten, as they probably will soon be forgotten, he redeem his memory from oblivion.
Mr Coolidge's action is condign rebuke to those fawning politicians who were vainly trying to deceive themselves and the American people, and who have been the tradition of the limitation of the term of office or in the example of the Father of His Country. But Ephiram is joined to his idle. The politician by the nature of his craft may always be expected to be the pregnant hings of the Knee, that thrift may follow fawning."

A Motorist's Prayer
Teach us to drive through life without skidding into other people's business. Preserve me, stop before we laugh. Help us to hear the knocks in our own motors and close our ears to the noise of the cargears. Keep alcohol in our radiators and out of our stomachs. Absolve us from the manly of trying to drive on a narrow road. Open our eyes to the traffic signs and keep our feet on the brakes.

ticular show one number was in dan-

ble, he leaned over the two rows of
seats separating him, from the pit
and: calling to the orchestra to speed

settled back in his seat and was
once more absorbed in the perform-

of significance. Tt bespoke the soul

No. kind friend, she is not from the South. Born in Pennsylvania, she is now in Pennsylvania Dutch extraction, and her mother from the Guiasans. Her first stage experience came with the production of and starring in dramas she had undertaken diapers only by a few years. Her grandmother objected to her interest in the theatricals, and against her professional debut at the age of 18. Her cabaret days are well known. Rudolph Fisher in the current American Mercury devotes a half page to her former connection with Edmonds on these days are remembered with profound regret by Miss Waters, not to mention her own beginning, but the Negro public, self-righteous and unwilling to understand that a performer must deliver what that same person wants. "What I miss Waters," is a blues singer thought to be expressing her real self in her songs any more than any other actor in any genre, so you get her point of view exactly.
WORK SPONTANEOUS
One charming thing about her comedy is its refreshing spontaneity. It is as free and unforced as it is affectionate and genuine. "I never know exactly what I am going to do," declared Ethel. It seems to do itself and never to need her own words she is extremely moody, sometimes very good, sometimes good and rotten. She has never learned to laugh. She is a selling decet. "It must come out in the open. Never without stage fright ... unable to be properly entertained." When personally complimented by Otto Kahn, who remained thrust the entire opening performance she smiled in with the utmost ardensess.
HUMAN APPEAL
Most artists are ambitious, most of them for fame and wealth . . . not Ethel. Of all things she desires to rise in the life of a man she need not change their identity with the altitude. Of all things most abhorrent to this advocate of the "Be Yourself" cult, is the fellow artist who hands have applauded his efforts. Patrons of the theatre are under the delusion that it is the Negro of Miss Water's interpretations that is so displeasing to the chief human nature of the artist herself that reaches out and establishes a comradeship the moment she would enjoy her work just as the artist has never seen a Negro who would enjoy her work just as thoroughly. Her art is not racial and should not so narrowly be confined . . it reaches as far as human emotions . . a unifier.
It is difficult to describe her personality. . . devilish, charming, defiant, nonhallian, clever and unattractive, uninterested than on. Now you who have raved over her footlight loveliness, just imagine. Her looks will bear the most minute inspection. Harriet Underhill in the Herald-Tribune, in the discussion of Miss Waters and classed her as one of the most attractive women on the stage today. In the description of her eyes, form, hair, image, complexion and an general surety of adjectives was extrahealed.
NOT AFRAID OF WORK
Belleve me, said the lady called Ethel. I can word too... I am a real waitress if anybody should ask me at that time. Then, as if divulging a ponderous secret, "I can cook, yes indeed, make a decent biscuit and the best peanut cake to break when that time for she soon brought the enjoyable interview to an end. She escorted me to the door and in you to meet me, want you to meet my mother." To my great surprise it was none other than the lady of the good looks who had let me sit down and be old enough to have a daughter so large and famous. She is the soul tightly and was much more than a daughter, brushing her hand across her mother's

Miss Waters was loud in the praise of Earl Dancer her husband and manager. It is he who encourages the more triumphs. He is cool, methodical and shrewd...never overreaching himself. . . in business, Miss Waters is a man of character, and all questions pertaining to the Race, she is wideawake and carries a lot of brain beneath that boybish boy who knows this. Why Negroes back and back never give a thought to helping a struggling young artist...never so far as to turn their back on him completely until some white person recognizes the gifted one and extols his help. They will come running to make sure they are well. Miss Waters, every Negro who has gotten anywhere wants to know that same thing. It's beyond me. But Miss Waters will come running to make sure she will place her far above such plays as "African." She is real high class musical comedy material regarding the sooner the sooner that is realized the sooner will she arrive at her rightful place.

BLEDSOE OPENS IN "EMPEROR JONES"
Actor-Barytone Takes Leading Role Of Drama At Savoy Theatre
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J.-Julius Bledsoe, noted actor-bartone, who was in Arthur Hopkins' production of "Deep River," and principal player in Paul Green's prize play "In Abraham's Bosom," is appearing in the title role of Engene O'Neil's Emperor tome" at the Savoy Theatre week.
Cecil Clovely, played the cockney trader and also did a good job of stage manager. But the performance there was a concert of folk songs and Mr. Bledsoe sang a Spanish song. The Volga Bommer's sons "bommer" chain, "Water Boo". The small Savoy lent unusual power to the singing and made effective each other sing with clear decision and comprehension of style. The play is one the three dramatizations enterprises for the season. Another "Emperor Jones" company will tour the west. Frank Wilson, lately of "In Abramans' Bosom", will be sugar Cairn at a Broadway theatre.
Listen Who Said It
A New York writer in an interview with Ethel Waters in this issue, says the star wonders why people will never recognize her, the woman who has been recognized him. That is one of the questions which will never be answered in full. There is one angle of it, however, that can be answered. Many admirers of actors and other public figures have no large way of expressing it.
The fact is that the triumph of Miss Waters, of Florence Mills and Johnny Hudgins can now be recognized or reconsidered for many years. The larger development and the important larger salaries are simply not among some classes. The question of recognition part a question of economic conditions.

STAGE REVIEW
By AFRO Theatrical Editor
Do They Want It?
A. Lincoln Harris, of Philadelphia, writer of nearly 25 plays, comedies and serious dramas, in an article to the press, attempts to analyze the trouble with the show business. Seeing the situation from his own view point (possibly through dramatic glasses) Mr. Harris says the drama is the thing needed to inject new life into the theatre.
Quoting Mr. Harris: "The public wants dramas, dramatic playlets, and sketches founded upon our own race, dealing with our people of today, our advancement and achievement." Interviews are a number of famous Lafayette Players, who are now taking whatever parts they can get in raidville and even revues, show that someone does not want them. It may be the managers as Mr. Harris suggests, but managers can be made to change their position, polite and friendly, by receipts.
Apparently, there are few race plays to be shown. There is some lack of competent playwrights, due largely to the lack of demand. The swiftness of jazz and opera is not popular due to the popularity of revues. The masses go to the theatres for snappy entertainment that requires least thought to interpret. The productions of the Goldberg enterprises will be an interesting venture in drama, but should not be considered to have to deplore that it is not a racial venture in its entirety.
Moving Time
Reports in the New York press state that "The Mikado" will have its revival at the Royale Theatre in Sept. If true, and if translated, the report will also mean that Miller and Lyces with their 80 performers in "Rang Tang" will have to find another theatre.
Finding the theaters, that is ones in the downtown district where one may begin a run, is not easy for dark players when winter approaches. The finding is not so hard when the temperature rises to ninety in the shade, and many actors who would otherwise remain obscure have been thus benefitted.
"Rang Tang" will possibly go on the road, and with the reputation that it has made may gain many times the attention to weekly which it has been drawing.

You know traveling then wasn't as easy as it is now, not even for rich folks and it was a poor life, a poor life, slave woman with a batch of children like us."
Went Back To Virginia
"We lived in Baltimore until after the war," continued Mrs. Herbert, but later I made one trip back to Virginia to the plantation. I asked my mistress if she knew you old I was and she said you are old enough to be no good. She did mighty angry with us for running away an as also sore because the South lost the war.

Mrs. Bethune Feted Says Stage People Give Europe Poor Idea Of The U. S. A.
BY CLEVELAND G. ALLEN
NEW YORK, MRS. Mary McLendon
Gibbons College and of the National
Federation of Colored Women's
Clubs was honored at a banquet, at
Laurel Garden, on Monday evening,
in honor of her return from Europe.
Those who praised Mrs. Bethune,
were Charles Johnson, John Lewis,
Jones, Dr. W. E. B. Dubols, Mrs. M. C. Lawton,
former president of the Empire State
Federation, and Miss Nannie,
Tough who was made possible for her to
abroad, by sending her a check for
$1500 for that purpose. She said that
the country had contributed to the
comfort of her trip, and made it
possible for her to have such an en-
gagement. Mrs. Bethune said that she
visited England, Scotland, Switzerland,
Italy, and Germany. She said that
she was entertained in many of the countries
received in many of the countries she
was entertained at a garden party in England, where
many distinguished personages were
She told of her visit to Rome where she met the Pope, and received a blessing from him. She was impressed with his visit to St. Paul's Cathedral, the Coliseum, and the River Rhine in Germany. She told of the oppression that women undergo in Italy, and said that America were better off than in any other country. In closing her address she said: "Negroes are better off in America and the masses have better opportunities than the savviudele people of the ones to represent the race in Europe and give me best impression. They take the race too much as a joke. Don't go to Europe in large numbers. They travel in parties of ten or fifteen." Whilst abroad Mrs. Bethune addressed an audience of 300 women on the race problem in America. After a meeting with Mrs. Bethune by several of the women's organizations.
Mrs. Willie Harris, representing the Scotia Chapter, presented to Mrs. Bethune a pliam to the banquet committee were Dr. Julia P. H. Coleman, chairman; Mrs. Pearl Vincent, secretary; Mrs. Emma DeLyon Leonard, chairman; Mrs. Elizabeth Farnham, financial-secretary; Mrs. Rosa Lankin, chairman program committee; Miss Sarah Jenkins, publicity; and Arthur Schomburg, chairman of the military men and women served as sponsors to the banquet.

William Porter, 1025 Gilmore St. was arraigned in Northwestern Police Court charged with the larceny of $65 from Marvin Warren, same add-ons, with the latter was asleep. Porter was held for the action of the Grand Jury under $500 bail when it was testified that he was seen taking the money from under the mattress. He refused to testi-
"Miss Bandana," the Ciarence E. Muse production playing the Rows this week must be added to the stricken list of shows that are different. Although the difference is a quality decidedly in its favor, comedy-new shows not approach former, Muse shows. Apparently some of the skimming of the cream was left in New York following the
There is a freshness and originality in the scenery which is suggestive of the city's more modern instrument vehicle. Songs, settings and the staging show the work of experienced directors, but the players are a bit lacking in them.
*Mabel Ridley, who made her debut a few years ago with her *Smarter Set*, the most pleasurable role. She sings quite well, plays the piano better, and dances not quite so well. Prominent in the case is her *Burgey*, with the Irvine C. Miller shows. Her parts are confined to speaking and light comedy bits.
*Araldine Goodin, slender miss with a high C voice, is wooed by John Henderson, singing juvenile, and answers to questions.* This is also Mom Phine, who is really Olle Burgey, formerly of David Bellos' *Lulu Belle*, and Burgey is effective and laughable in her character work.
The comedy is headed by the old veteran, Salem. Tutt Whitney, who succeeds nicely in bourbon sweetness, Mr. Whitney skit with Miss Ridge is one of the most clever bits of light comedy of several seasons. Two other older comics, *Onoh* and *Butter*, but not their nonsense without appearing ridiculous. Walter Grumley, straight man, mingles in the comedy scene. R. M. Cooper, formerly of *Chocolate Four* in "A Trip to Araby," does a bit as an ante-bellum preacher. Another singer, Billy Lewis who takes a much better role than the dancer in "Charleston Dandies," is rather weak in telling the folk about "Dixie." Holt Black, youthful dancer who creates with extra eccentric stepsordon, has some months with his acropane Charleston, is back with some extra cloth in the bottoms of his trousers and another skating dance with extra eccentric stepsordon, has some aplause, but highest honors in dance work to Cecil Graham, who does taps and other nameless steps while skipping a

System Filled With Poison as a result of CONSTIPATION
Mr. R. J. Black, of Kelton, S. C., says:
"I could not eat and my rest at night was disturbed. I was troubled with the effects of gas pains, and I hardly had a comfortable day. I was nervous and worried. All I could do was to complain. I tried several things but I could get no relief. All my ailments were the result of chronic constipation which caused my system to become filled with poison.
"One day a friend suggested that I try Black-Draught. I began taking it right off. I continued the medicine for several weeks and since then I have felt fine. I am in better health now than I have been in years.
"Black-Draught is a splendid remedy for constipation."
Thousands of others say the same.
Try it. 25 cents a package.

Howdy, Folks. The scientists say that if the sun were to explode, we would have no air to breathe. At that time the burning gases would reach the earth and we would be annihilated. Only eight minutes notice prior to the hour of the explosion could be given us, so something like all of our brains would matter that the scientists didn't mention and that is, when that little announcement is made, boys there is going to be more back-biting done than in the so-called bare reality to join the crowd when the time comes for the last time, in that time.

Baltimoreans On
Baltimoreans asked to express their opinions of an editorial appearing in the AFRO last week, advocating the appointment of race men as police officers in the Northwestern District, have the following to say:
Prof. P. D. G. Pennington, principal of Douglass Junior High School:—"The AFRO voices a crying need of Baltimore, colored policemen would help solve the race problem:"
E. W. Howard, 1110 Drudg Hill avenue, barber:—"I think the editorial a little top outspoken at this time. Closing up some of the cabbages and moonshine jobs would solve the crime wave better than anything else."
The Rev. Ernest Williams, pastor of Metropolitan Church:—"The editorial, to my mind, was an exceptionally strong one."
Dr. Joseph Fennell, pharmacist:—"The AFRO should be highly commended for the excellence of the editorial about the shooting of the ol-
Dr. Chalmers, Hairston, dentist,
1140 Druid Hill avenue:—"The editorial was very good. Negro police and detectives would help abate and solve the crime wave.
Wilhelm W. M. was so good. Falkrax 1206 McCulloch street:—"The editorial was to the point, colored policemen should be put on the force."
Martha E. Brown, 1720 Druid Hill avenue, school teacher:—"I think the article was excellent. To my opinion, the policemen are too ready to work with the police and so often frighten them into violent courses of action."
Mr. William Marshall, of 1838 Druid Hill avenue:—"To my mind, it does no good to stress such things. Officers are often cruel and harsh to our people, but antagonizing the thing does no good."

GODFREY K. O.'S MALONEY IN 1ST. ROUND OF BOUT
Left Hook To Jaw Drops Boston Mauler In 1 Minute 25 Seconds
MALONEY CLAIMS HE WAS "FOULED"
Leipersville Terror Runs His K. O. Record Up To 13 Straight Victories
PHILADELPHIA—Geo. Godfrey quickly established his right to meet the best fighters in the world by knocking out Jim Maloney, white, of Boston, in the first ground at Shibe Park before a crowd estimated in the neighborhood of 15,000 people.
The two blows that put Maloney off commission were tremendous left-hand drives to the jaw. Godfrey, who had a big weight advantage, so the punches that 902 for Maloney, seemed able to do almost as he pleased with the Boston lanyweight. Godfrey's hands seemed times in the few seconds that the men were fighting, but they seemed like the cricking of a sparrows nib of Godfrey's face and neck. Reed did not
Then he started after the Boston Irishman, and driving Jim back to the ropes, he landed the two deadly punches on the Bostonian's jaw. The blows were plain to be seen by thousands who had eye range of the ring and before the effect could be shown it was apparent to everybody that Maloney had been badly hurt, although no one thought he was out.
As Godfrey stepped back to the center of the ring the spring of the ropes threw Maloney forward and he fell flat on his face dead to the world. The bout only lasted one minute and 25 seconds. Referee Tommy Riley counted Maloney out as he lay prostrate face down in the ring and it was fully 10 minutes afterward before Maloney's manager and chief second could revive the battle. Even then when Maloney was able to get to his feet, he had to be supported from the platform by his handlers and by George Godfrey, who came over to see if he had been seriously injured.
The end came with such a sudden crash that the bout was over before thousands of the spectators realized that it had even started. Godfrey was given a great hand as he stepped from the ring and hundreds of his admirers followed him to his
After the fight Dan Carroll, Maloney's manager, said he would protest to Frank Weiter, chairman of Pennsylvania's being commission, that his fighter was fouled by Godfrey. Carroll said he would tell the commission that Maloney was against the ropes but before the knock-out blows were delivered. Godfrey has a string of twelve consecutive knockout victories to spur him on to try for another con-
His victory tonight put him in line for a possible bolt with Paulinho Sharvey and the other of the other contenders.
Godfrey was born in Mobile, Ala. Just 26 years ago and fought his first ring battle with Bard. Ward, and scoring a knockout in the second round. The same year Buddy Jackson and Jackson Thompson over Bill Tate in eight rounds was a sure sign of success as heavyweight mauler. Jack Towne, Joe White and the same team for the final count the following year.
In 1925 Godfrey, kowed "Tall Jacks," won the Sammy Battling Four Fred Fulton in five. Battling Owens in three and Vic Alexander in seven. Among his last year, Larry Gains, Jack Townsend, Cowboy Billy Owens, Bearcat Wright and Joe Gans. He lost to Sharvey in a 10 round bout and to Chuck Godfrey has to his credit. 21 knockouts, and four contests lost. Benny Leonard, the weightless Godfrey says.
"Godfrey is now being hailed as the successor to Harry Wills as the beat of the Negro heavyweights. And in this connection I might point to the sudden dearth of good fishing matters among the colored in the today.
"With the sudden and total collapse of Wills bubble one finds only Godfrey and the middleweight, and Bruce the lightweight, commanding any more than passive attention. None of the trio is regarded as a martial art class. True enough, there is 'Baby Joe' Gans somewhere out in California who showed, some signs of the picture of the late picture. "Ther Flowers, although he managed to win the world's middleweight title, was one of the capable and Bruce Flowers, the lightweight, in my opinion, never will get the championship among the lightweight. Godfrey Good Prospect "As a matter of fact I think that Godfrey is probably a better prospect in his class than either of the him and Bruce class, and I have mentioned in his respective class." Godfrey has been learning more and more under the tutelage of Jim Dougherty tells me that Godfrey scored knockouts in his last nine ring battles. "Loues Syrness Mary Kelly, Western fight critic."
This fellow Godfrey looks to me as
right prospect. He's finally gotten
the job.

NEW YORK—With a twenty-three. pound weight advantage, Jimmy Maloney, white, the Boston Maloney, white, the Boston Maloney Kid in a unrestricted contest in the fourth round of a scheduled ten-round bout here Friday after one minute and four remaining fighting.
In the opening round Jamaica Kid rushed across the canvas to meet Maloney and received a terrific barrage of rights to the mid-section, the hand, leg and chest of the Boston scraper by hanging onto the ropes. Only in the occasional spurs did the Kid land clean punches on Maloney's jaw but they had little or no effect.
In the third round the Kid was dropped by a short right to the jaw. He was up at the count of four, managed to hold on until the gops.
Still feeling the effects of the hard punch to the face received in close contact, Maloney slowly out of his corner for the fourth round. Maloney battered him around and while they were in close the Kid dropped his knees in the air and who did not see it. Referee Eddie Forbes explained it was a short right to the heart. With the Kid from the start, his only setback being that he was unable to get in a clean punch to the latter's arm. It only served to give fans a laugh. Jamaica, a has been now, is clearly on his last leg. Jamaica was groggy in the third he tried running away from Maloney and at one time he ran clear across the ring and then ropes in desperate fashion, and peered around looking for Maloney.

HIS RECENT DEFEAT
The Semi-Finals
The second big "Y" boxing show scheduled to have taken place last Friday night, but was postponed will take place Friday of this week, with Kid Dennis Moody and Calvin Lamson, in a feature six-round bout for the lightweight championship of the Y. M. C. A.
Moody has been holding the lightweight championship of the "Y" for sometime, may retain the crown as Lamson is practically a new comer to the battle. Battling Gant, who defeated Moody on the Campbell-Cooper card several weeks ago would have been a stronger opponent, and are: Smiling Kid Crawford vs. Leon Griffin in the semi-final; Kid Eat Kid Eat six rounds; Kid Matthews vs. Shermont Gant; Battling Pervey vs. Robert Lee; Clarence Redd vs. Battling Redd; four fights to four rounds.
There has been some recent discussion among "YT" fight fans of the decision handed down in the Cooper-Campbell fight, which was won by the referee was Allen T. Watty. The judge was M. Millender, of the P. A. L. Campbell, who was thought an excellent little Douglas High battle lost the bout fairly despite his tears. He was out-boxed and out-witted and the judge's decision was final. The only thing to eliminate was being about a return match between Cooper and Campbell.

NEW CHURCH "SPLIT"

SENSATIONAL CHARGES
AGAINST NEBO PASTOR
Their Treat
Religious circles were again rocked with "scandal," charges and commendations by members of the Nebo Baptist Church withdrew last week when he failed to live to his promise to give them a treat of ice cream and cake.
It has been generally known in the church up to the forty-liters mentioned, and five grown-ups asking for the pastor's resignation or else the warring faction would withdraw and set up a church of their
"Sister" Leads Movement
The guiding spirit in the opposition to Sister Stella Wettington, 526 Bloom street, age twelve, who was at one time a substantial pillar of the congregation, has been an institution by going from door to door and inviting all of her little friends to join. By her efforts the congregation was increased to the numerical strength of forty-five.
Gave Entertainment
Wonderful progress was made in the new church, which is located at the foot of the cloak gained the love and confidence of his faithful little followers and finally the temple upon the pastor's promise to give them a treat of ice cream and cake. The entertainment and a night was set for the treat.
Put Them Out
At the appointed time all of the little members took their accustomed seats, smacking their lips in anticipation. The pastor, according to official statements issued by the tiny members, came in late and notified them that the food would not materialize. The pastor would not materialize. When an undercurrent of dissension was heard the pastor resorted to drastic measures and put the whole lot on the table. A meeting of the deacon board was called under a lamppost on the corner. Some were in for stoning the church or pruning the tree, but the more conservative, contended that the pastor might have been in good faith and were willing to give him another chance. The meeting would have been broken up orderly but not one of the little members, who had been off the church or the pastor's home, declared that the Rev. Bibbs, his wife and the five grown-up members were eating ice cream in the kitchen. This information acted as a bombshell thrown into the meeting and a tumult broke out that necessitated the office on the beat making an announcement.
Right then and there it was decided that the congregation had withdrawn, and the Rev. Bibbs membership was again reduced to five. Others active in the movement are Garet Jackson. 12.

The covering seven states reveals the three of these requisites are guaranteed and rarely given on Jim crow cars. On most of the best trains of the south the baggage cars are cut into three compartments, the new butchers are given a two-seated smoker in the middle and twelve to fourteen seats in the rear for first-class passengers. Even in the rear where the first-class passengers sit or stand, the new butchers are given quiners for their work and wares.

TO ARRANGE BIG
CO-OPERATIVE BANK
Will Take Trained American Staff To Man Financial Institution
NEW YORK.—Preliminary negotiations for a $2,000,000 loan to finance a huge cocoa industry in Gold Coast, West Africa, have been completed here it was announced in financial circles here Saturday.
Conclusion of the big financial deal, which has been conducted by Wilfred Tete-Ansa, regarded as one of the industrial wizards of the African West Coast, will loosen the strangle hold London importing interests have on the cocoa trade of India, while allowing cocoa growers by giving a better price and in general raising the standard of living. Prices, he said, obtained by natives in eastern and eastern the London concern, are below the world market prices.
New York Banking interests who are underwriting the loan have been impressed with the unbounded trade possibilities in West Africa shown them by Tete-Ansa and an important commercial bank to result in the connections being made between Tete-Ansa and Americapital.
One of the outcomes of the loan will be the immediate formation of a huge banking institution in Accra and the establishment of a bank in the American trained executives to take charge of the bank and organization, will be taken back by Tete-Anse, he announced. More than two-thirds of the cocoa grown in the world now comes from the West Coast of Africa. Besides the cocoa trade, the industrial boom the increased agriculture with the introduction of machinery brings bound to have a market effect on the development of the coast.

New England Women Are Fighting For Teachers
Color Prejudice Bars Many Well Trained Youth From Places In Schools
By Mary Church Terrell
A very interesting meeting has just been held here on the New York State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs which was organized thirty-one years ago. While all the subjects discussed bore directly upon the problems which confront colored women, the organization clearly how intelligently they are working to promote the welfare of their sex and the efforts that are being made in New England to place colored teachers in the public schools.

The AMERICAN RACE PROBLEM.
By BETTY BATHA, Ph.D.
W. Growell Company, 283 Fourth Avenue, New York, N.Y.
An amazing number of books discussing the race problem are being printed form year to year. This vol-
Already there are 29 colored teachers already in Elizabeth Carter, the president of the Northeastern Federation, and one of the honorary presidents of the National Association of Colored Women, the school of New Bedford for many years. There are now seven colored teachers in the public schools of that city. Boston, who has taught in Wooster, Mass., for a long time had charge of the meeting devoted to the discussion of this important subject and she presented many interesting facts. At the account of Providence, R. L., gave a thrilling account of the determined efforts which the colored club women of that city have made to place them in the Normal School in the public schools.
The speaker cited the case of one young woman who had made a splendid record and a Normal degree, superintendent, fused to appoint her, because she claimed, she was not sufficiently trained. The young woman then used a Course Book and returned with a record showing that her rating was very high. When she presented this report, the woman requested that she be assigned a position in the public schools to which she is entitled, he threw it upon the floor. The young woman has already worked and intends to take a third.
The mother of the graduate of the Normal School was told that her daughter had been sent to the schools to teach like other members of the school. Her training was defective, nevertheless. She related this conversation to a friend who had a daughter in the school. The mother of this girl made up her mind that she would study thoroughly the requirements necessary for teaching in the public schools of the city. She found a book issued by the Board of Education showing that in order to be a teacher in the public schools, a normal graduate would have, to be trained in certain buildings. When she was told to other building, the mother objected and requested that she be sent to one of the schools referred to in the
When the superintendent asked her why she wanted to have her daughters mentioned rather than to the one he had designated, the mother told him she had read the book which especially mentioned that the building she preferred was one of those in which normal school graduates should treat their students for positions as teachers in the public schools. The gentleman is said to have been greatly surprised, said the mother's request. So the colored club women of New England are waging a vailant fight to have the normal graduates mentioned to which they are entitled.

Home Education
I knew something was the matter the moment I entered my brother-in-law's back-yard and saw the child faces white and scared. Why stood feeling their father. What terrible thing can have happened? thought I.
It was not necessary for me to incur, for their father turned immediately and exploded in the situation, these three eggs, "asked he in an awful tone. "Well, the awkins stole these, yes, actually stole these from my chicken. And black old hen that made a nest under the currant bushes. Thing of the price of eggs and see what they've wasted! As the children crept off, my brother-in-law called me. "Now, if I go back, again, remember that I'm going to give you a good tanning."
I said nothing, as I walked on out to see his prizis bird. I was to see him, but he wanted me. He nephews had confined in me how much they wanted to raise some little chickens and their father would not let them own a single one. I single pet, and Grandma says Father had lots of chickens when he was our age, but he won't use us raise any dear little downy chickens. The birds are so very fine. I replied, "Perms, he'll let But their father not wish any birds me give you some common little chickens on the place except his own. He had no time to build a separate pen and would not let me have it done. So the matter was dropped by uncle but not, as it proved, by the children.
Now, as I walked beside the angry and disappointed father, I wondered whether he realized that a little time would have fenced in the children and him the unhappiness they were suffering. The love of chickens and of ownership, inherited from their father, had made the temptation to walk with them. But who was really to blame for their wrong-doing?

The AMERICAN RACE PROBLEM
W. Crowell Company, 388 Fourth Avenue, New
York, 10017
W. Cronwell Company, 284 Fourth Avenue, New York, NY 10017. An amazing number of books discussing the face problem are being published by the time of Reuter's Professor of Sociology at the University of Iowa, impresses me as the best up to date. New population, health, economic status, education, the church and crime. A portraitography at the end of each chapter. The comment is dispassionate sometimes to the point of dullness, but and on the whole very favorable.
"As a result of intermxture the Negro as such will ultimately disappear the population and the problem will still remain the mean time there will be the problem of defining relations in terms tolerable to the members of each group." What those terms should be shown in another clear cut statement. "It would be to the advantage of the Negroes and to that of the handicaps imposed by case and other prejudice. They retard the cultural advance of the Negroes and to that of the handicaps imposed by case and other prejudice. The result is the same whether the Negroes are handicapped in their individual freedom directly by discriminatory acts or by the existence of a
SEPARATE INSTITUTIONS INTERIOR
Professor Router does not believe in what he calls the nationalistic movement — voluntary segregation. Only in open competition he feels can man do their best work. "Separate the men and women," they are manned by persons incompletely assimilated to modern culture." Solidarity, he believes, can only bring temporary success. He believes that cultural possibilities, declaring that "for two decades, scholars have accepted as a provisional and fairly well working hypot. us the position that the various races, and peoples of the world are enes of equal mental ability and capa. ly for civilization."
There are many opponents of the Negro whom we can now gladly declare are not scholars! Reuter shows that the Negro has found extraordinary differences between Negro and white brains, because he knew which were Negro and which were white. Reuter finds that the Negro has produced as yet by the American Negro but he accounts for this on cultural not physiological, grounds. CHIN
The discussion onunching and crime is admirable. Among other things, the author says: "There is a deep-seated and all prevailing fear of the Negro. The Negro has one of this fear is the treatment the Negro has received at the hands of the whites. The slavery of the Negro, his economic and industrial situation, and other historic facts of the Southern situation are fundamentally repugnant to civilized moral standards. This condition creates crime and the presence of a misused person is a perpetual reminder of conduct in violation of the customary standards, and such irritant becomes an object of criticism."
NO INTIMATE KNOWLEDGE ...
The book is a scholar's presentation of an immense, mass of material on the educated Negroes today. It lacks the human note. One questions if the Professor Reuter has any friendly, intimate knowledge of the educated Negroes today in his crushing criticism of "classical training", the college education given after the war at such institutions as Atlanta, Chicago, and New York, and the contact of the newly emancipated black with the consecrated teachers of these schools was the finest one the American schools ever had.
CULTURE
Reuter values also, perhaps, too highly, the cultural standards of the white Americans. The Negro musical tradition was the past when they catered chiefly to their own race, than today when they are doctored up to suit white Broadway. Roland Hayes sang for years to applaud England and France had told white America to listen to him. But these are minor criticisms. On the whole, the Negro was a full of important material. It is both a text book and a disquisition.
> That week end, we went to the sea岸.
> The conductor came to collect the fare, paid mine, my bionet, and handed in the tickets one for himself and one for my sister.
> "How old are your boys?" asked the conductor.
> "Your," immediately replied the father.
The children crowded forward to correct the mistake, but their father faced faces to see to say, "Can Father so soon have forbidden our birthday cake with the six candles?" at the station, he must, at once, swing each child high in the air and ask their age. He always did so, no matter how much he was told, "Six years old," the twins sane out. "But Father forgot, and told the conductor we were four." Cousin Fred loughed, "Oh!" he told, "I will fool the conductor so he wouldn't have to pay for you on the train." With widening eyes, the twins gazed at the at their father and at Cousin Fred.
When A Person Drowns
It is a common belief that a drowning person will always rise three times before finally sinking. According to the U. S. Public Health Service, there is no scientific basis for this belief. Many drowning persons do not first submerge their first submersion. When a person finds that he is drowning he naturally makes a frantic struggle to save his life. In doing so he draws water from the body and lifts him to cough and expel air from the lungs. He then sinks. If all the air is expelled from the lungs he will not rise to the surface even a second. On the other hand, a drowning person who has some control over himself may sink and rise more than three times before his strength falls suddenly and he hinks to rise no more.

From A Woman's Viewpoint
Books and magazines attract me as a magnet attracts steel—as flowers attract bees. I think this last comparison is the better of the two. I love flowers so do I get much of my mental and spiritual nourishment from the printed thoughts of men and women. Thus it happens that whenever I see a book or a magazine in the possession of some one I know, I will read it and investigate its contents. Indeed, an utter stranger has in stant interest to me if he has a book or magazine in his hand or in my pocket and not to be able to find out the title and contents, I assure you. One amusing result of this habit is that a person makes a hasty movement of concealment and says, "Oh, you don't want to see this. It's just stuff." or "This would interest you. It's not high brow enough." It used to irritate me, but now I simply smile. I have learned to smile, which could be quite irritating, and I hope as time goes on to learn to smile at a whole lot more. It is so much more livable that way.
So, I content myself with smiling at the illogical deduction that the diet I can't eat at times enjoy a cream puff. That because I really am fond of "The Atlantic" and Harper's, and "The Forum," I did the Cosmopolitan, such as "The Cosmopolitan," and "The Saturday Evening Post." Now, when I have the nerve to coach, I can expect "The Saturday Evening Post" to cream puffs, please remember that these delectable dainties are not necessarily chaft. Properly made cream puffs are of a high value. Of course, strong, healthy bodies capable of doing the work of the world aren't produced by them, so expect a mind whose mental diet is confined to this type of magazine to do the constructive, progressive, ar-reaching thinking of the And, just as dictators with a view to physical efficiency urge balanced menus, so those who seek to improve their health usually vary and balance their reading. Grave and gay, light and serious, instructive and entertaining, all have their legitimate and important role in our intellectual nourishment.
The main trouble with most folks is the question of balance, especially when they are exclusively to the light and entertaining, to that which doesn't give their mental muscles any exercise, to the thought, to thought. And in addition to the fact that they become intellectually weak and flabby, they also miss so much that is of real help in their greatest job on earth, which is—living. Time and time again have I received strength and courage and intelligence in printed page. Time and time again have I gotten light on some perplexing problem, comfort. In some cases I have to handle some difficult situation, worth-while bits of philosophy which have helped to infuse my attitude toward life in general. Quite recently I picked up a book by Basil King and read the book "The terrible experience from which he emerged a different man in many respects. In explaining to an intimate friend the changes in itself which had come about, he says:
"One changes with experience—above all, with that kind of experience—suffering. Suffering is the great Alchemist; and he often transmutes our silver into gold, transforming the progress of growth. Trouble has two stages. In the first, you think it hard luck that you should have money, that having met it, and gone thru it, you come out into a region of blemense experience where everything is better than you thought it was before—out into a new kind of world. "There are things in life that are more essential than trials are the first essential to maturity. We need them for our仁亲ing—our spiritual ripening—our powers and fruit need wind and rain."
Isn't that a wonderfully comforting and honest way to look at trials and sorrows which are one of the most difficult experiences in this life? Can't you see a eagerness, meaning, and a beneficent purpose in them as never before? Doesn't the thought of the second trial bring to mind the pain and bavely the first stare? Aren't you more willing to pay the price of suffering since there is the prospect of a bigger, better, self-developing from the original? Of course, sorrow and trials don't automatically do all this for us. The mere fact of having trouble with the process of life entitles you to the "sensation of a high experience" into that "new kind of world." Much depends upon yourself, your attitude of mind, the emotional state, the ambitioned and soured and hardened by trouble. They remain forever in the first stage of rebellion, resentment, and selfish abhorrence, and sowing, growing,
But to each one of us is given the opportunity to blossom forth into the beautiful, winced free, lurged vision and spiritual development. If we prefer to be caterpillars when we can be butterflies, we have no one to blame but ourselves.
On Sunday morning I went to Bethel. Dr Stoneau was preaching from the text, and I was impressed by his serenum he advised his heirs to seek Truth, and declared the Bible to be the course of Truth. I thought once that serenum a whole lot. All good sermons make you think. (You don't forget all about them, by the way.) I knew what he said was true, but when I thought of the more than three hundred religious sects in the world, I knew the teaching Truth, and setting this Truth from the same Bible: I was rather puzzled and confused. And, again, from a worth-white light, I learned enlightenment. How is it what I read.
"Truth is doubtless a final Absolute—complete, positive, with infinite Bible—being able to instilify it, the many viewpoints of more than one set, is due to OUR limitations.
"Truth as expressed in the Scripture is of VAST CONTENT.

Helping The August Bride Furnish Her Home
ELISIE OWENS
For months and months before the wedding the August bridge probably planned the furnishings for the new home. Or if no definite plans were made, the house may not notion of how she would like her home furnished.
She may have planned to live in an apartment, or in a large house, in a suburban cottage or bungalow. Of course the furnishings used in the large city house would differ from those used in a small house, and the suburban house would differ from the furnishings of a city house.
The average couple starts out with a limited amount of money, and only buys the house furnishings. But that little money stands for so much happiness that the simplest of things bring great joy.
In these days of so much spending of money before it is earned, many young couples make the mistake of buying too much at first. The home is not in the beginning is not half as interesting as the home that grows with us. So if the salary is small, it is wise to start with inexpensive nearness in the beginning to add to them as the years go by.
The first room that we enter in a house is the living room, and as first step in the process, we need sider ways of furnishing this room attractively. Now the living room suite that appeals to your taste, may cost a little more than the sider ways would be wise for the couple with a limited amount of money to consider a more inexpensive furnishing in the living room. Wicker furniture is attractive and at the same time inexpensive. It can be bought unstained and finished at home. The first thing to consider will be the color scheme. The secret of a pleasing room lies in the color scheme. Wicker furniture can be used in the color scheme. A dark blue rug can be used on the floor, which has been stained a light brown. The wicker furniture can be finished in a tone of blue. Wicker furniture with dark blue rep. Fills of tan, blue and orange can be used. An unstained table can be bought in a variety of colors. Wicker furniture. The cover used on the table can be dark blue like the chair seats. On this table a blue chair can be used. A cream shade, trimmed with bright orange and dark blue bands. A bright orange ash tray will also give bright touch to the color of the room.
A bookcase will lend a cheerful note to the room. Nothing makes a room more money than books. We need books to look good in the books and feel as if old friends are greeting us. Draperies of dark blue silk with figures of orange would fit in with the color scheme. These furnishings are inexpensive, yet the living room will be charming. As we become more prosperous, one of the things we need is a place placed by finer things. The wicker furniture can be transferred to a pouch or to a den in the house. Finally handsome over stuffed furnishings may be more elaborate as the income increases and all all of the old furnishings may be used to den, the sun parlor or the porch. The same economy can be used in other rooms.: If the dining room is small, a charming breakfast suite can be furnished. The expensive. Upstairs the furnishings can be modest instead of elaborate, letting the charm of the rooms lie in the color scheme. The furniture will be furnished, and we will find that we have used a reasonable amount of money, and are not worried with the facing of big bills.
It With Flowers"
"Say it with flowers," as one might guess, was originated by a florist. It was coined by N. P. Lindberg, a native of the time to foriculture at Rugby, N. Dak. Before the world war the Rugby Dane attended the national convent where he grew up. "What can you raise in the barren country called Dakota," a delegates asked Lindberg. "Up there," snapped the Dane. "What are your customers. It was a good selling slogan, and the florist convention made it famous throughout the world."
Linberg was killed in 1922 in an automobile accident.
Bread And Butter Letter
A bread and butter letter is a note written by a departed guest to his late host of hostess expressing thanks and appreciation for the hostess's extended stay. It takes its name from the fact that hospitality is frequently spoken of as "bread and butter," according to a letter etiquette chart, a bread and butter letter should be posted within 48 hours of the guest's departure. The term is particularly applicable to a letter written to a friend after spending a few days at his home.
words are found—THEIR COMPLETE BREAK-BELLOWING TERM BEYOND BRASS. We deal with them singly, or in little groups. Our view is so narrow that we see Truth ONLY IN SPOTS. EACH OF US SEES A CAPACITY FOR OUR CAPACITY FOR SPIRITUAL SIGHT. THE WHOLE OF TRUTH IS LIKE THE WHOLE OF THE UNIVERSAL INHUMILITY BEYOND OUR RANGE."
Now, didn't that clear up the situation nicely? Didn't that explain the variety of beliefs we see around us in our schools, around our schools, around the Bible is not merely a conglomerated mass of contradictions? Instead, it is a book so wonderfully deep and profound and rich that each person can find all things to all things to all men in the sense that it meets and satisfies the most diverse spiritual needs of human beings out of its own abundance. And, after all, the value of human beings is its value to the individual.
Farther on I read: "Even the Bible does not present the whole of Truth; but it presents more the whole of men, be it nation, church or federation of the world, can as yet compass or co-ordinate. A long stop on the road when one man is able to console to another man the ability to see in the Bible something it will not see. It will be a still longer step when ONE CHURCH IS ABLE TO MAKE THE SAME CONSESSION TO ANOTHER CHURCH CONSESSION to another church, but I certainly did feel like saying "Amen" to that last statement. It gives a nice jolt to the smug console who imagine their beliefs are the only beliefs, and that their truth is the one and only truth. Just two instances of getting gotten from worth-while reading. And, in closing let me remind you, dear readers that I didn't get either from true confessions or "Snappy stories."

Africa Not So Eager To Have Us Back
BY DRUSILLA DUNJEE HOUSTON
(A. N. P).
There have been so many agitation against Africa that we were well if we really informed ourselves about Africa and its native peoples among us not be imposed upon again. If we wanted to go to Africa we would find no place where we could live. We were beria; for the Aryan nations seized and partitioned Africa long ago. They would consider us as bad mankind, and proaganda, among the native peoples.
Again among the unruined tribes there is scorn toward us. They would not look upon us as superiors when they would not have done so. There were African tribes who would drown or starve themselves rather than when they would not have done so. There were African tribes who would drown or starve themselves rather than when they would not have done so. These African suppose that their fathers were too of this calibre. These people do not feel that there is so much that we can teach them. We must surpass the average Africanian. You may enter an African assembly and there you will find the gatherers must have been learned of such a thing as for one to interrupt another speaker is a thing unknown. So the unseemly confusions of our gatherers must have been learned of such a thing as for one to interrupt another speaker. If this be true it is quite natural that they would be inferior to people who could pass on ordinary matters of behavior.
Africans have simpler codes of laws than our nations but they are not as well understood as our laws are astounding for their ingenuity in getting results. In our civic culture, we are taught only a small percentage of them are caught and even less punished. In our criminal families family are hold responsible that he be brought to the bar and the punishment is swift and certain. Bars frown on prolonged litigation.
Africans are more honest than the people of our world. A truckster may leave his vegetable wagon to the night and pass the night. When he returns the next morning he will find them undisturbed. Contrast this with anything upon our eyes, and the fires are taken and sometimes the body completely wrecked. In Africa gardens out from the settlements are unmolested. But the forefathers it were told that forefathers it were told that we learned more of their traits. The abominable thing that the African slave district is the result of the African Slave Trade. In this series we are reporting the traits of unruined tribes to be found in Africa. We are most entirely overlooked by the white press.

When Did The Round "S"
Supplant The Long "S"?
The modern form of the letter "s" took the place of the old "f" form on many of the books the round "s" was used in all parts of words except the end, where the long "s" was retained. John H. H. H. was the first important publisher to discard the long "s" and substitute the round "s" in all his works. He was the old in his edition of "The British Theatre," which was published about 1775. The transition from one edition to another is almost simultaneous with the American Revolution.
In 1786 Benjamin Franklin wrote:
"In the mode of mode, and in nice printing the long
s' is rejected entirely." After 1800
the old form of s' seldom appear.

Probe Queer Doings In
Gooseville, Seek Elopers
A probe into the queer goings on in Gooseville is ongoing today by local authorities. With the questioning of a cat with a fiddle and a fellow by the name of Hay Di Didow, the authorities are not when a cow, whose identity has not yet been determined, is alleged to have jumped over the moon. This is a criminal offense in this town and the authorities will tomorrow. Tomorrow the investigation will continue. A little dog, who we said to have laughed when the plate ran away from the door, he knows. The plate and spoon are thought to be elopers.

A donation was taken up for Old Mother Hubbard to buy food for her children. The reporter happened to be peeking in the window when she went to the cupboard.

"City Toughs"
Mr. Abbott pursed her lip lightly,
Sir, to look at and mute the kitchen,
"I'm wondering how long it'll stay this
way after those city toughs get here!"
Mr. Abbott, who was getting ready
to go to the station, smiled patiently,
"Mornest, I never thought you fuss
when I told Mr. Phillips I'd take,
couple of those men for two weeks in the real
country.
"You always was soft-hearted," said
The two boys were nearly as bad as the girl, but they were as she could, and they were so eager about everything: that they did not eat, that they did not eat that she cooked the best things they had ever eaten. But Mrs. Abbott saw that she tracked up the house, used bad words sometimes, spilled things on the table cloth, and shouted until he head ashamed.
Mr. Abbott laughed. He told them the news. And when he told Mr. Abbott about the fight, she took the two boys and Mr. Abbott, then the other, with her nuttiness, and finished by making a cake and ice cream for supper that evening.

Higher Priced Cotton Is Welcomed By So. Farmer
Advance Of $15 Per Bole Means Prosperity Again For Business And Professional Men.
With the advance of cotton to twenty cents per pound to gilt cotton, the farmers, business and, professional men see relief from conditions which have been slowly squeezing them out of the south.
Notwithstanding the fact that the low price of cotton and the boll weaver have caused a large reduction in cotton acreage, it is still the outstanding money crop of the south where manufacturing of prosperity. The Government estimates a yield of 13,492,000 bales for the 1927 crop. Some idea of what the recent raise means can be figured out when it estimated that $222,000,000 more than it did last year.
Although the south has sought every measure to rob the group farmers out of the cream of cotton profits, they will share generally in this effort. The group farmers system started out on a share basis and share cropping is still a dominant system of profit sharing. Time was when the white man's 'naughts' and 'greats' figures were all for the white man; none for the nigger" was sufficient to cheat race farmers out of their rightful share of the cotton crop. That time is gone. Race farmers now take matters to court.
Another influence has been the migration in which the business man migrated to the south, about in the wake of fleeing labor and has come to the rescue. It has been the migration in the south which, have turned themselves into welfare and interracial movements to see what some of the businessmen united out. There was a reason.
Help Business Men
For the last two years the business and professional men in the south have been the greatest losers in the job market. Henry Hardy of Spartanburg, S.C. told a representative of the Afro-American some time ago that professional men throughout the south have been the most patients having no cash with which to meet accounts. Many of them have had leave on that account. Sections of the country will profit by the rise of cotton. The shadow of "hard work" will be the driving force from any section all over the country. Thousands of laborers, professional and business men and women, will spend a part of it in the north and west. That is why the price of cotton has come to be important to the professional, business and labor in Baltimore, Boston and New York.
BIG BUSINESS SUCCEEDS BY ADVERTISING
BY HENRY F. ARNOLD
One of the main weaknesses of Madam Walker not educated to the value of newspaper advertising.
Go into any city of America largely populated by colored people, and you will find a group of colored men who have not yet learned some business: The great, majority of them are not known.
Despite the fact that each and every article that these business men read, they have not yet learned the value of newspaper advertising.
One of the first things that the late Madam Walker did when she looked for the office of the newspaper. Hundreds of colored newspapers published by our people owe part of their existence to the late Madam Walker. Though Madam Walker spent many thousands buying space in our publications her gross and net expenditure from her expenditure. Both news paper and Madam Walker profiled.
What is true of the late Madam Walker is also true of Mrs. Annie Louis. Mrs. Malone was quick to see that in order for her to make her business succeed, she must buy space in newspapers. New York and Chicago tels in the world operated by our people. Men and women who leave their respective homes will not know unless the fact is broadcast through the columns of the newspapers.
Impossible To Make Business
Succeed Without Advertising
Has become so systematic until it is utterly impossible for one to succeed in business without the newspaper. Making a living is not succeeding Success in business means that you have built your business to such an extent that you must hire more and more clerks each year. It is impossible to do bills unless you expand. No man can be. construed as a business, man whose business only allows him to employ himself. You must be clad in work clothes, man unless you employ workers.
What the late Madam Walker did and what Mrs. Malone of the Pore family did, by hundreds of other men and women of the race, if they choose to advertise. Their success proves conducively that It pays to advertise.
The AFRO helped help, build the
building of Madam Walker.
It can help you.

63,700 MEXICAN LABORERS NOW IN THE U.S.
WASHINGTON, D. C.—(P. N. S.—
According to the reports of the results of the industrial survey made by the Department of Labor early last winter in the North Central States, invasion of industrial America by Mexican labor is going on in earnest.
This survey covered the cities of Bethlehem, Wilkes-Barre, Johnson, Pittsburgh, Sharpburg and Ford City, Pennsylvania; Cleveland, Lorain and Toledo, Ohio; Detroit, Pontiac, Flint, Sawhaw, and Kalamazoo, Michigan; Indianapolis, Indiana; Gary, and Hammond, Indiana; Waukegan, Chicago, Chillicothe, Moline, Galesburg and碧斯, Illinois; Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Fort Madison, Davenport, Ottumwa, Manly, Sloux, Omaha, and Moorhead; Moines, Iowa; Alberta Lea, Chaska, St. Paul, East Grand Forks and Minneapolis, Minnesota; Fargo, Dora, Dakota; Sloux Falls, South Dakota, Omaha, Nebraska, and St. Louis, Mo.
According to the report it is found that these cities had approximately 69% American-born workers. Of the workers the border in the last eight years. Those living or working in the western part of this district had been in this city for more than a decade, those in the eastern part of the section investigated had come more recently, most of them having been in the United States two years or
Center Market
BY ALICE DUNEAR-NELSON
(For A. N. P.)
Center Market in Washington is one of the most interesting spots in the capital. Markets are always in demand, and you can escapeable facts in life. All mankind is engaged in either the production or the consumption of food; oftimes they are the most important provement or what you will is designed to help produce more food. or get it more rapidly to the consumers. You can amuse him while he digests food; or teach him how to keep other men from getting as much food as he can. The most interesting thing. Is food in the rough, or it were. going from producer to customer with all the picturesque by-ways, grown up through centuries and generations.
Can it be possible that this change in the status of the market people of Washington is significant of one kind? It is not. The derogating? Many a lucrative fortune has been built-up, the despised market wagon. And the Levantine and Jew, the Greeks, the Romans and chafers, the sun will some day be wholesale merchants and perchance own strings of stores. The sons and daughters of these forgotten negro farmers will be the most useful materials, perhaps in some other stores.
We used to know how to make money, on feeding people, on the job, on the days gone by were caterers. Many a small but comfortable income came from the truck we drove, the time art, or are we plumming ourselves for what we think are biggish things. The biggest business in the world is Food.

FAVORS HOOVER
FOR PRESIDENT
BY LOUISE R. LAUTIER
ST. LOUIS, Aug. - Herbert Hoyerow
has been the best candidate for the Republican
nomination for President, from the
Negro viewpoint. Bishop Robert E.
Church declared in an address before the National Negro Business
League last Friday on the "Economic Aspects of the Mississippi
Plains."
After telling of the rehabilitation
work of Mr. Hoover in the flood area,
Bishop E. it is am thinking that out of
that situation, with that marvelous
personality, it would be fortunate for
the Negro community. It would be fortunate for mankind. If Herbert Hoover should become President of the United States, it "never saw a man who went into
the flood area and by the bave lint of his personality
and his intent to do right and just and fair by all men win the
heard." He looked planters in their faces
and said, "we are dealing with those
tenants not as Negro tenants but
as African Americans." He "think it was a godsend that
Herbert Hoover went down south."
