SOUTHERN G. O. P. FAVORS CHICAGO SOUTHERN G. O. P. FAVORS CHICAGO Windy City Easily Accessible To Delegates To The Next National Convention SAN FRANCISCO IS FAVORED TO WIN OUT Final Selection Will Not Be Made Until Next December WASHINGTON. D. C. —While colored Republicans favor Chicago as the place for holding the next Republican national convention, those Detroit polities feel certain that San Francisco will be chosen. Chicago is easily accessible to the color delegates, who come largely from the southern states. Railroad fare from their homes to the Illinois metropolis is within the means of most of those who are elected to represent their congregational district of state. In these days when the trend is away from candidates bearing the expenses of delegates, this is an important consideration. Three months ago San Francisco was practically agreed upon by the bosses. Since that time the President has declared that "I do not choose to run for President in 2005. This time I will be believed, will not change the convention situation. It is also believed that the fact that Herbert Hoover is mentioned as California's candidate for president of holding the convention in San Francisco.

RUSSIA BISHOP GAINES MODERN VIEWS STIR CHURCH "Few Believe Bible As We Have 't Is Without Errors," He Says APPROVAL IS PLACED ON EVOLUTION THEORY Bishop A. L. Gaines' views on modern Christianity have stirred the conservative members of the A. M. E. Church. The Bishop's view, delivered before the Bishop's Council recently in Pittsburgh, have just become available in the M.E. Church Review, official organ of the denomination. When delivered originally, conservative pastors of the denomination declared that Bishop Gaines had gone too far from the old-time tenets of the church. The majority of the ministers, however, applauded the sermon declaring it in line with what the present day Christian is thinking. Controversy According to Bishop Gaines, the entire history of the church is involved in controversy and the present day minister of the gospel must be prepared to meet the issues involved in Christian controversy today. The Bishop is called that the Old Testament prophets were controversial and there was a perpetual conflict between Jehovah and the pagan religion. Books of Bible Jesus Christ himself, and Paul were referred to as controversialists. The Nicene Creed, said the bishop, came into existence out of controversy. The New Testament Cannon can only be accepted after much controversy. Some of the books in the New Testament based on condemnation Others failed by a certain strain to become a part of the cannon. Fundamental issues of today. Bishop Gaines said, are concerned with questions coming not only from afseists and infidels, but those who are within the church are asking, "Does the Bible pretend to be a Book of science?" "Is the story of the Creation as recorded in Genesis to be accepted?" "Was Jesus born of a Virgin?" "Had Jesus an earthly father?" Prose Poetry In The Bible "When we read the Bible, devotion is an excellent it, for edification. That is an excellent way to read the Bible." "But when we read the Bible scientifically, we study it as a scientist does. We separate prose from poetry; we distinguish legislation, homily, folklore, history." "When men read the Bible only devotionally, it was supposed that the Pentateuch was written by one man." "And so the minister of today must not only read the Bible devotionally in arriving at his attitude to inspiration, but he must read it scientifically as well." Two Theories Seeking of two theories of inspiration of the scripture, both of which are based on fundamental truth. Bishop Gaines said that the Dictation theory is that the Bible in every word and letter is God's book. Very few people believe that the Bible as we have it is entirely free of errors. Illumination theory holds out that there must be degrees of inspiration just as there are degrees of illumination and that inspiration is progressing. **Evolution** "The theory of evolution has for its fundamental idea, development, it deals with the kind of Creation. The alarming the idea that evolution antagonistic to the Book of Genesis and especially to the first three chapters of that Book. "In the light of the Illumination theory of inspiration in the first three chapters of Genesis are we reading history or science or philosophy, or capturing legend or fable or myth? Every minister must answer this for himself. Continued on Page 4 Spread 160 Years Old MILLINGTON. Md.—A bedspread said to be 160 years old was displayed at a dinner given at the home of M. M.

"How can it be helped?" asked nis managers, adding: "The General must obey official orders, and General Wood that no official orders, at that time, exceeded the importance of his appearing and making a speech. The Sensor was going in special cars, with him on the famous Broadway limited. Railroad authorities were consulted and a *angements* were made to hold the team at Englewood station fifteen miles north of Wood, and the speech was made, probably the most statemanlike of any delivered at that time. It rang true on race. The General was commandingly appreciative. **Judge-Gary** Judge Eibert H. Gary, of the United Steel Corporation, was personally the finest type of business man he had ever seen said: "A colored man is as good as a white man, and no better," and by the same token he meant "no worse." Judge Gary was not spectacular in his work, but he certainly no American has ever been more vitally concerned about the welfare and progress of Colored America of the Northwest. Of making the Northwest worked definite part of the employment and welfare of Corporation industries is indicative of the cordial, and sincere spirit of Judge Gary. His influence of Judge Gary ramified all determinations of the great steel corporation. J. Ogden Armour, of the great packing firm of Armour and company, had been Colored America, and like Judge Gary of the Steel Corporation, was foremost in engaging Negro workers. Mr. Armour, who was not sonally, and some of our problems, but he thought more in terms of service, recall on one occasion discussing southern Jim-crow cars with Mr. Armour, and describing to him some of the problems. Mr. Armour must ride on passenger trains of the South. Mr. Armour informed me that he was really "surprised to see" the Jim-crow cars, and "died." As a matter of fact, I had to first explain, to him what I meant, to his language, he informed me. Charley Pickett was one of our main contacts and listening posts in Washington. In the office Senator Charles Pickett, the former late Senator but equally so because of Charles Pickett, every Negro in America had a hand of welcome. As a matter of fact, he had not a Senators office in the great Capitol that gave, or gives the co-operation in racial matters that developed then Charles Pickett, but he was the judge on how much to let you have. Knox George L. Knox, of the unfortunate Indianapolis Freeman, was a delightful charming personality, native wit and good cheer. I first met him as a boy in my native state of Indiana; more than thirty years later, than any other publication at that time was the national spokesman. It is said that all news papers rise and fall, but I will always be as cheerful as any publication as much as the passing of Mr. Knox. ATLANTA.

A coroner's decided that Ridley came to his Children Cry For Fletcher's CASTORIA There are many ways a baby has of expressing any pain or irregularity or digression from its normal condition of health and happiness. A short sharp cry, a prolonged irritated cry. Restlessness, a constant turning of the head or of the whole body, fretful. In these and other ways a baby tells you there is something wrong. Most mothers know that a disordered stomach, or bowels that do not act naturally are the cause of most of baby's sufferings. A call for the doctor is the first thought, but in the event of any delay there should be ready at hand a safe remedy such as Fletcher's Castoria. Castoria has been used for baby's aliments for over 30 years and has merited the good will of the family physician in a measure not equaled by any other baby's medicine because of its harmlessness and the good results achieved. And remember this: Castoria is essentially a baby's remedy and not a cure-all for every member of the family. What might help you is too often dangerous when given to a babe. To avoid imitations, always look for the signature of Castoria. Proven directions on each package. Physicians everywhere recommend it.

The S. Gerald Lankin, head by Dr. S. Gerald Lankin, His Views On Modern Church Shock Conservatives 1 (Extracts from Bishop A. L. Galanes on the Modern Christianity) Very few people believe that the Bible as we have it is entirely free from theological error. The Seventeenth Century idea was that God dictated the Bible to certain writers as secretaries. The Twentieth Century idea is that when the Holy Spirit comes into a human mind, that mind is lighted up, or as we say inspired. There is a book of Genesis, a book of Genesis is a story. There is no conflict between Genesis and evolution. There is a reference to a Virgin Birth in the Old Testament. The Hebrew word translated as Virgin in the Old Testament means "marriageable woman." Harlem Isn't Godless MORE BISHOP GAINES MORE BISHOP GAINES (Continued from Page 1) "Have we conclusive evidence that this is not a story? Expecially is the evidence not conflusive when we remember that the Book of Esther is a story. The Book of Daniel is a story. The Book of Jonah is a story. The Book of Job is a story in verse, many believe. The Creation "The first great religious idea of the writer of the Book of Genesis is that God creates a world in which attempts to fill in the gaps and explain the How. 'God said,' 'God said,' rings throughout the story of the Second thought in Evolution is that God creates gradually. In this Story of Creation as recorded in Genesis." The second important truth in the Story of Creation in Genesis is that man is the crown of God's Creation. In this, Genesis and Evolution are Virgin Birth "Questioning of the Virgin birth of Christ is another result of scientific study of the Bible. The Bible tells you ever stop to think that there is no reference to the Virgin Birth anywhere in the Old Testament? There is no reference to the Virgin Birth of Christ's life-fitness?—that the Jews never expected their Messiah to be born of BY ALICE DUNBAR NELSON NEW YORK— (ANP) - New York has was a woman, the wild life, the scarlet woman, all the crimes of Sodom and Gammarrath; all the decadence of Harlem but full of Harlem builters, full of beings Harlem, the synonym for cabarets, "the numbers," Negro theatres, night clubs, glided gambling dens, the youth you love, you don't "Niger Heaven." The "Niger conception of Harlem is a place where everyone sleeps all morning, parades all afternoon, and plays all night, all night and only speaks the deity of the Deity in an oath. As a matter of fact, there are more churches to the square inch in the world. There are more churches in Harlem than there are cabarets. There are more people in the church and the smaller cities. Every city block in Harlem boasts at least two, sometimes three, or even four churches. In Abuja, Abuja's mother, Mother Zion, Mt. Salem, St. Marks, Mt. Olivet, St. James, St. Phillips, opulent, huge, beautiful. Or even, a frequently re-created residence. These latter are my irrad. Harlem may resound until early morning hours with the dintiminal song and the hit "Hit the Deck," but before seven o'clock a different strain of "Halleluj" arises from scores of early prayer meetings. Right, there is more sound of hymning than is there of riotous jazz; more prayer than profanity. Little churches and big churches devote their vacant pews such as you find on Main Street. Evelyn Preen in "Rang Tang" sings, "Harlem, Harlem, I'm crazy about Harlem," and an assortment of effervescing charm of the popular conception of the town. But a more truthful, but less popular representation out shows how winding church goers feeded by a long line of white-robed ushers, each bearing well-filled collection plates. PASTOR LOSES COLLECTION COLUMBIA, S. C.-Two masked men up and robbed the Rev. J. T. Carter of $30 collection taken from the Brown's Chapel Baptist Church "When I say I wonder if any of you have stopped to think that there is no reference to a Virgin Birth any where in the Old Testament your mind at once reverts to Isaiah 7:2. "Behold a Virgin shall conceive and bear a son. As his name Immanuel. "It has always been assumed that that referred to the Virgin Mary and that the boy whose name was Immanuel was Jesus. A story of the Bible was Jesus. That there is no reference at all in that verse to Jesus or his mother. Not Translated Properly "The Hebrew word translated VIRGIN That word does not mean "Virgin." The Hebrew word means "Marriageable Woman,"—that is a woman who is enough to be married. There is no reference in the word to virginity. "The prophet says a marriageable woman shall conceive and bear a son. His name shall call him Immanuel, which means, God is with us." "The Virgin' Birth cannot be set aside for anything that science has yet found out. Nothing in all history has been found to prove that God has not performed a miracle in causing his to be born of a virgin." NEW RECTOR FOR ATLANTIC CITY ATLANTIC CITY—Rev. C.

WEEKLY SERMON "The Things That Remain" "The Things That Remain" The removing of those things that are shaken, that those things which are not shaken may remain. Hebrews 12:27. The New Testament was written in earthquake times. Earthquakes were more common than now, Western Asia suffer from more earthquakes from time immemorial, and they were of not infrequent occurrences and other parts of the Roman world. But it was not the ground only that seemed to be trembling when the New Testament was written. Western Asia suffered more old religions oyESTAOETAOANN old religions were breaking up, and the mythologies and idolatries were all tumbling to the ground. Government was no longer stable. There was no real stability, and no one knew when or where the next sedition or rebellion would break out. The whole edifice of civilization be trembling to the ground. There was no wonder that people imagined the end of the word to be near. They were indeed earthquake times in which the people of the New Testament was written. And yet, nothing impresses the thoughtful reader of the New Testa- tion, but the fact that it is a book of performance that seems to pervade it. It is one of the first and most evident impressions which the New Testament presents, being in the Testament leave upon the mind. They of being "grounded" in the faith of being "perfected established a foundation," being upon a foundation"; of having a hope sure and stedaf; of how the foundation of God standeth sure; or how other foundations cannot be laid that is said to be grounded. It is, of an earthquake era that seems to be shaking the world to its very foundations, of the Testament tells of a foundation that is Testament tells of a hope that is sure and stedaf. This strange and extraordinary language out most strickenly in the words our text. In it, the writer refers directly to the quakes that seem to be coming, that is no note of alarm in his voice, no a trace of fear in his words. Just the contrary. It is true, he says that the things which are made, that are imperfect and undesirable, will be shaken, say, let it shake. All that can happen is that the things are made, that are imperfect and undesirable, will be shaken, that those things which are not shaken remain. You cannot, that is, shake them. You cannot, that is, shake them. You cannot, that is, shake them. All that shaking can do is to bring down the thing that can be shaken, in order the more im- Now we are living in earthquakes times. Within the memory of all our lives the ground has shaken all over the world with terrible effect. Martinique, Messina, San Francisco, Japan, Italy—the stories of these catastrophes are in all our minds. But again it is not the ground only that has shaken. Everything has seemed to be shaking. Governments have been tumbling all around us; old things have been passed away. Behold all things are becoming new. Ancient and venerable religious ideas have been shaking under the impact of modern science and knowledge. The social order is trembling. No one imagines for a moment that we are on solid foundations there. The whole system of property ownership Radio Fans Sit Up As African Chief Goes On Air --- More long words were pitched into the vibrant ether last night than we have heard in many moons. For them an African chief was responsible and they were not the tensyllable adjectives of some native dialect. No English, and real English, was the language, and the whole proceeding was a credit to the educational facilities of the picturesque Gold Coast of the Dark Continent. It was a treat to listen to Chief Amoah the Third of the Santi Tribe, and there one thing he is sure about; Africa's young people are all right, says Eric Palmer in the Brooklyn Daily News. Mr. Palmer goes on to say: We wish we could reproduce the African words which ended the lecture. They mean "I thank you. Good night." That proves that the Chief has been listening in on the American radio, for 4,632 talkers reel that off every night. But the Chief is Members of knitting societies, who mourn over the terrible conditions in Africa, particularly as effect women should have tuned in on the Chief. He pronounced the various tribes happy in their native customs, augmented by foreign schools; and as for the feminine contingent, one need worry. Why, the African ladies are chiefs, counsellors, jurists, diplomats and even captains in warfare, but one of them has a job the fair fans in this region will frown upon: teacher of etiquette to the royal hareml And Africans do not buy their wives, stated Chief Amoah. They show their appreciation by tendering gifts to the family of the brides. That is quite a distinction, he contends. Africans know what radio means—their kind. That is the beating of drums, large and small, the signals (F) THE EVENT IN FULL DRESS (P) THE FAMOUS GLEE CLUB WILL APPEAR IN A CONCERT AND RECITAL —AT— ASBURY M. E.

JACKSON, Pastor. the whole relation of labor and wealth the whole system of production and disbution—it is all shaking and trembling the new world of ideas, in which we find the civilization of our whole planet, has been to its very centre by terrible international collisions, and people are wondering whether there is any solid foundation upon which civilization grows, and if so, what and where it is. What we need then, evidently, is the recovery, if we are able to re-train us, and exalted mood of the New Testament, most desperate need at such an hour is a sense of assurance, born of the deep spiritual persuasion that underwent the bravery and steadfast; that there is at the things there is hope that is sure bottom and centre of things that have been shaken; that we be moved; that so we may look on at all the crashing and tumbling and things about us, and all of what we have been so say, so the shaking of the earth, such the earth is shaking is it? Well, let it shake. For what can the shaking do? We can remove the shakable things that are shaken; that those things which age not shaken may remain. That, at such a point, this should be the confident and exalted mood of the people of God. And now, what is the sure foundation of which the New Testament so confidently speaks? What are those things which the New Testament affirms cannot be shaken or moved no matter what else, no matter if all else falls to the earth? It is as we all know, the foundation of the Life, Spirit, Presence, Inspiration of Jesus Christ. That, the New Testament affirms, is an unshakable and immovable reality. Heaven and earth may pass away, but it shall not pass away. Other foundations are like hay, stone, wood, stubble, gold, silver, precious stones. They day shall declare it and each man's work shall be made manifest. But other foundation can no man lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. One permanent fact, so teaches the book of the Hebrews, in all the changing order, is the fact of Jesus Christ who is the same yesterday, today and forever. We are built upon the foundation or the apostles and prophets. Christ Jesus Himself being the 31st-century条理者. Other things may shake, but this relationship unshaken. Other things may be removed, but this is immovable. That is the hope which animates the writers of the New Testament and enables them to look out with a serene eye and an untroubled heart upon a world shaken to its centre. Let it shake. The things made by men may be removed, but the things which may not be shaken will remain. "Wherefore receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace whereby we may offer service well-pleasing unto God." It is our faith in an omnipotent Christ destined ultimately to put all things in its midst of a changing order of things to remain calm and confident. It is only as we share in the world that we tremble when we share these days we can share in its confident assurance. It is only as we shall understand that underneath this world there is a spirit of work at work upon the life of the world, overturning the works of men that the work of Christ must be done, and things that must be removed that the unmovable kingdom of righteousness shall be revealed, that we too can look abroad upon this shak- "Wherefore, receiving a- kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have thankfulness, whereby we may offer service well-pleasing to God." carrying to great distances.

Oxford Accent In Africa There as a great deal more to his interesting address, a copy of which he wrote in 1912, could not be one-tenth as fascinating as hearing it spoken by the learned Chief. No one knew how long the Chief actually is capable of calling attention to what Africa is doing and what it needs in the way of assistance. For there, at a cost of $200,000, with what is available in a Prince of Wales College, over $300,000 annually for maintenance; so it is no wonder that the Oxford-accented intellectual leaders of the various tribes.

No Hair Cuts In Russia Russia, where even professional and technical education is free, the government owns everything and the workers rule, has more teach America says Mr. Richard Hurst Hill, just back **but** Mr. Hill during his three months abroad was unable to get a hair cut. The clippers, a good American barber's tool, seemed unknown. Barbers one Russian shop held a "council of war" when Mr. Hill entered. They had never seen such hair. Finally one spoke on all: "There no sense in a man wearing his hair we won't cut it." short, we know that... use of a free education if a man cannot get a hair cut? The only hope we see in Russia is the discovery of a number of colored settlements in the Kodorsk district of mountains recently in an expedition sent out from Moscow. Their security. These are real Africans in language, customs and type - despite some mix of white Russians. ture with him. Maybe they will teach Russia the art of cutting hair short. There are times when nothing else matters beside a hair cut, not even graduation and government. More Smart Cracks Under the title of a BALTIMORE SMART CRACK the venerable and respected "New York Age" takes us to task for correcting Acting-Mayor V. McKee, white, of New York in welcoming the Elks' Convention to that city declared New York City's colored population numbered 300,000. Says the "Age": "The reliance placed upon the census figures of 1920 by the Baltimore editor is truly ingenuous, and his estimate of the increase of population since that time takes no account of the infux of population due to the Southern migration during the past five years; more. Harlem alone is conceded by good authorities to have from 200,000 to 250,000 Negro population. This does not include those residing in other parts of Manhattan, where smaller groups are to be found, east side, west side and all around the town. Then there are the four other boroughs of New York City, the Bronx Brooklyn, Queens and Richmond, all of which have their separate quota of colored residents. Either Murphy may be quick at figures but he ought to keep better posted the growth and distribution of the race in New York City, of which Harlem is but a part, although important in itself. "The acting mayor was well within conservative bounds in his estimate of the Negro population of New York City." The AFRO in its editorial expression complained of by the "AGR" to take Mayor McKee to task in his lack of knowledge of New York's population figures. We said he was 47 per cent of the way which was not bad against gladiator. Nor do we take violent issue with the editorial writers employed by the Honorable Fred Moore, who has been a minister to Liberty and now aspires for us in the City Council of Chicago. Howard, "facts is facts and figures is figures," so we let Mr. W. M. Stewart, director of the U. S. Census Bureau have his say. Says Mr. Stewart, "The estimated 'colored' population of New York City as of July 1, 1927 was 170,600." The "Age" will note that this is 600 more than the figures used by the AFRO in its estimates last week. But, says Mr. Stewart, "you will note that the figure supplied is for 'colored' and not 'Negro.' Under colored we include Indians, Chinese, Japanese, and all others not of the Caucasian race." Stewart then gives us the following population figures for New York City as of January 1, 1920. Estimated Population, July, 1, 1927 New York City 5,970,800 These figures are quoted to show that from Mr. Stewart's estimate of 170,000, some 8,000 Chinese, Japanese, Indians and all others leaving New York's Negro population as of July 1, 1927. The "Age" will note that this is 8,000 less than the AFRO'S estimate of last week. When Mayor McKeen said last week that New York had 300,000 colored people, we replaced that he was 74 per cent out of the way. Since the "Age" has accused us of "smart cracking" we desire to amend our remarks by saying that the "Age" and Mayor McKee are NOT 47 PERCENT WRONG. The mistake is ours. THEY ARE AND ARE 49 PERCENT IN ERROR, and are the god of statistics have High Hats Or Low Those who are inclined to laugh at Liberia where high hats are more numerous than volumes in the public library would sober up if Liberians could pay a visit to the average large American city. The African visitors would see nearly half as many silk stockings on the heads of American women and boys as on their legs. The stocking cap is a shocking American institution used to keep the hair slick and in array. If these stocking capped individuals could be kept in their bed rooms where they belong, there would be no problem, but when these well greased head pieces are worn in the streets, to school, and to theatre as is the case, it is time or time to get out. The only ought to be some mid-way point between the Liberians' high hat and the American stocking cap. Poking The South The "American Mercury," which has a fancy for exposing backwardness of the South points to two advertisements from the Swainsboro, Ga., "Forest Blade" in the current issue. I am a candidate for treasurer for Emanuel county, subject to the recently ordered primary. I want the office because it's fairly good pay with little work, but if elected I will do that little as it should be done. I solicit the support of all parties. EDD. C. BROWN. I am a candidate for treasurer for Emanuel county, subject to a Democratic white primary. I am old and unable to work for a living is why I want the office. I earnestly solicit the support of all voters, and promise, if elected, to merit your confidence. A. J. RICH. Clearly Emanuel County must elect a county treasurer and if only these two are the candidates, and be the voter's choice. What a choice. One desires the "good pay for little work" and the other wants the job because he is "old and unable to work." Such are local politics in a state which has declared the ballot so sacred that only white men may enjoy the franchise. The Honorable Ben Davis, Republican National Committeeman from Georgia "remarked last week that the "South has brains, but not guts." The Honorable Ben knows his onions and, there is no disposition here to dispute his view. For this reason we met him at the White House and had the South any "guts" they would not be much use to a section as politically lazy and senile as Dixie. DAY BY DAY BY WILLIAM N. JONES Take A Ride Mr. L. S. Hungerford L. S. Hungerford, General Manager of the Pullman Company, which pays its stockholders 20 per cent dividends while it dozes out to its porters and mails around 62 per cent of its cash in the form of humilating "tips," will not arbitrate with the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, declaring that there is no "grievance." .TAKE A RIDE MH. HUNGERFORD. Don a disguise, board any one of your crack trains, pierce through the masking smile into the heart and feelings of 75 per cent of the men and women in your company, and if you do not find grievances a plenty, your "blood is cold and your bones marrowless." Don't ask your plotted delegates of your wife and "representation plant"; don't ask the ministers, lawyers and other astute "leaders" of our group who have sold themselves for your mess of pottage to make "dumb driven cattle" out of the human beings who want to be him. And make a talk to them, list your porters and maids talk when they speak their mind. Some Grievances and Plenty More Nine out of every ten porters, expressing their own free sentiments without fearing that they will be fired, our district managers hundreds of them have, will tell you that they have some grievances. They are tired of the tipping system which prostitutes dignified labor and which is unbound and unjust, making employees unrustless at all times, unable to establish any permanent income plans. In one car an efficient porter might get only dimes from a bunch of tight wads while in a mother's car a few dollars would want their employment, placed on the same dignified plane on which yours is placed. YOUR ANGLO SAXON BLOOD WOULD BOIL TO STEAM HEAT IF ANY MAN OF OPERATION WOULD OFFER YOU A WORD WHAT WOULD CONTINUE SUCH AN OUTWORN PRACTICE? Report At 7: Pay Starts At 10 They don't like your practice of requiring them to report for duty often at 7:00 while their pay hours begin at 10:00. They don't like your method of coercing them to accept a working status from the company as they are compelled to wear their tips. They don't want your agreement; they want a untranned organization which can bargain with you to sell their labor like men. Here are enough grievances to raise to fever heat the righteous indignation of any red The Porters Must Win Their Fight Every professional, business, or working man in the group should be vitally interested in the fight the porters are making. Just at this time it is vital that we make education or educational or civic advancement. Wage and working discrimination is lynching more men every day than mobs in the South have lynched in fifty years; it is killing more babies; it is killing more husbands; it is creating more husbands and wives; causing more heart strings to snap, than all the jim crow cars, all the disfranchisement and all the segregation we have in the country. The thing that pullman porters are fighting for is our own life and existence. And if the great Fulman Company is able to stifle many organization among colored men and women, while every trade and craft in this country, every industrial enterprise, our civilization, it will be little less than an act of human slavery. Buying Out Our Leaders Another one of the sickening developments in this porter situation, porters will tell you, is the methods which have been used to defeat the making of a many organization. They say, "We have been paid tidy sums of money to fight the Brotherhood; the men of the cloth have taken the filthy hure; they say newspapers have been subsidized and bought out; banks of the race in which money is deposited have joined the fight against them and they look with seething content on these Talk to them and they will call names and recite instances; they will also give you names of stool pigeons and of courageous men who have served in the service because they dared to favor a real organization. Mr. Hungerford's position is untenable. IF THERE ARE FIVE PORTERS WHO DESIRE A DESIRE AN INGREDIENT OF THE COMPANY CONDITING ANY PHASE OF THE WORKING CONDITIONS, THAT FIVE SHOULD BE HEARD. Every man and woman of the group should get into this issue of business and professional men and especially ministers should help because if the porter's movement is killed, OTHER GROUPS WILL BE STIFFED. IF THE GROUP INCOME SET BACK A QUARTER OF A CENTURY. Is Tete-Ansa A Traitor? By WM. PICKENS Tete-Ansa, an African black from the Gold Coast, quotes a white man in connection with his efforts to a loan from American capitalists for the West African cocoa business: "I'm taking a white staff with me a white bank manager and accountants. No, I won't use any New York Negroes. You see, white I haven't used any New York Negroes. You see, white I haven't used any New York Negroes. You see, white I haven't used any New York Negroes over here haven't much business training and experience. There are a few insurance brokers or real estate brokers, but no one who seems to have any grasp of sound business ```markdown ``` Either the daily paper lied on Tete-Ansa, or else the African gentleman is a victim of the inferiority feeling which British domination has caused. The British are saddly conclusion from a Negro from Africa who "haven't been in New York very long"; and who therefore not only knows nothing of New York, but absolutely nothing of the whole of the rest of the United States. We heard Tete speaking at the Pan-African Congress, and his speech sounded like that of the Frenchman who would have to go back to Mississippi within a few days. Tete must go back to British domination in Africa. And why did he not tell the truth? The British would have to attempt to import American Negro business men into the Gold Coast—and that his white masters would not allow it? Tete knew that the British would not allow him to bring American blacks into British Africa. Everybody else knows it. They are not even welcomed as preachers and missionaries, to the extent that they are not like Tete. Like many "undersiders" in all the world, instead of telling the truth plainly with his condition, endeavors to cover it up by traducing and slandering somebody else; and since his own color is black, he is beheaded with least risk, he slanders them. Has Tete-Ansa ever so much as heard of the Mme C. J. Walker Company, which is a bigger business than anything he is likely to build in Africa in a generation under the complete management of a black man today, but was founded and built up by a black woman and has been successfully managed by the same black business man and attorney. He has Ansa met any of the heads of Negro insurance companies and banks in America? No; by his own casual statement, he does not even know the Negroes of New York City, but he does know the Negroes of Atlanta, Jack Nail Watt, Watt Terry, Anthony Overton, all of whom have great businesses in New York, above the experience and competency of any "white bank managers and accountants" whom Ansa can induce to go, from America to Africa with .... We heard Tete-Ansa in a speech before the Pan-African Congress and we "sized" him then. He said that the African people should not be interested in guns and weapons of defense. — that the Negroes should be the only unarmed race in the world, and that the history of the British in Africa must have taught Ansa better than that. But Tete knows that he will have to go back to Africa, — and that fact dictates his decision. --- It seems hard to teach some people in America, and now in Africa, that whenever they find themselves handicapped against telling the truth, the alternative is no necessity. Nobody expects the mouth shut. Nobody expects a Negro school principal from Mississippi to advocate mixed schools when he visits New York — but he can keep his mouth shut on that subject. Nobody expects a Negro school to advocate independence and military self-defense if necessary, on the part of the blacks in Africa, — especially when the British are waiting for Tete to come back to Africa, but Tete could remain most close to the United States. Nobody who knows the situation expected him to import Negroes into the Gold Coast without British permission, — but American Negroes do have a right to expect him to refrain from inducing them in order to shield his own disgrace — and something. We are going to help to teach him. McCray-Why Not Garvey? The Associated Press on Aug. 31, 1927, says, "Warren T. McCray, former governor of Indiana, was the first governor to return in the Atlanta Federal Penitentiary, is expected to be released on parole from the prison today." It is further stated that the Parole Board recommended his release and that Attorney General Sargent approved it. Take notice: here is a big American white man anywhere about it. He used the mails to defraud, not out of ignorance of the law but to cheat the law, deliberately, knowing all about what he was doing. He sought his own personal profit in the --- Marcus Garvey, in truth, was not a criminal, but a mis-informed visionary. His organization abused the mails in a much smaller way than did McCray, who was not seeking business. He was, of course, seeking glory in a visionary cause, and it is most likely true that he hardly understood the legal import of his stock-selling. Garvey has served more than one-third of his term, for he not only went to prison before McCray but his term was only 5 years, while McCray's was 10 years. McCray went in last and comes out first, -witho McCray's term was twice as long. Garvey was a bigger man, better known around the world than McCray ever could have been, more famous than all the governors of Indiana put together. And yet Garvey is still in prison while Attorney General Bargent religiously recommends the release of the white man who had ten times more chances than Garvey to "know better", and Garvey is greater criminal. Garvey was right, this is certainly a "white man's country". White Doctor Asks Why? A CARD of the Yonkers Neustadter Convalescent Vacation Home for the poor is sent me. I must fill it in order to make a break out. I have a week to read. Heading the list of the "ineligible cases" I see the word "Colored." Why this discrimination and intolerance in a community so much of the work and heavy labor is done by the colored people and in a Jewish institution at a time when the Jews are protesting against anti-Jewish intolerance at the Kings College and other institutions. Why this base impurtiy? Do the slavish white servants who administer the “charitable” institutions of some parasitic loafers and exploiters really believe to be human and philanthropic by such humiliating slaps in the face of persons who are essentially the same as they in spite of the color of the skin?

To the Editor: As a constant reader of your paper because I am the best, and as a former resident of Washington, I am able to get the Eastern news, I was shocked at the picture or pose in the last issue on Page 9, advertising the "Blackbottom" in nude, and another reader, this was off-colour for a "paper like yours, and I believe that it becomes us to respect ourselves and be more critical in our theatre ads and other ads because the effect of such can be harmful and suggestive, and also make people take into our homes.

Washington Reader express some fallacies about hospital procedure. To the Editor: Five years of hospital experience afforded me an easy study. Some persons have the idea that the doctors are just going to experiment on them if they can't do them any good, give them the "black bottle," to get them out. It is not the hos- The hospital tries to help patients. For instance, when a person is taken suddenly ill that person calls the doctor. The doctor takes the case in charge and calls the doctor. The doctor sees his orders are not being carried out or that the patient is not getting the proper attention at home, he orders him sent to the hospital because he now needs a patient will get the proper treatment and treatment. When a patient goes to the hospital he is properly admitted, taken to the proper ward and put in the proper bed to be taken up in all of his effects and secures the name and address of the nearest relative. The patient is required to stay in bed until examined by a doctor, no matter if he has walked in or been called to the ward and takes a history of the patient's illness and as soon as possible an examination is given again, a diagnosis is made and treatment is begun. The patient who gets the attention at their homes is given them at a hospital. I am not a nurse, but I don't think a person become a millionaire by running a hospital.

To the Editor: "I am great deal of March 25th, as the "Maryland Day." The children in the schools can tell much about the Ark and Dove, and the landing in St. Mary's County. It was the beginning of the civil war, the failure of the state of Carroll, and those other fellows under the slave regime, but they know not, or seem not to know, that there was a great soul, born in Maryland, who will be remembered given him from on high, who consecrated all his gifts towards making his own native commonwealth the "Free State" of Maryland. In an event of sufficient significance in the history of Maryland that it should be annually celebrated, and the men who wrought so wisely and patriotically, remembered? Should they have been given the gifts that they not have in remembrance the name of the man whose abilities and whose love for all the people, compelled the white people of Maryland to out-shear the black people of Maryland, thereafter we speak of "The Free State of Maryland?" It was on the 12th day of October, 1864 that the sovereign people of this state, by their suffrages at the polls forever eliminated the man responsible for the man responsible under God, for this good work, was Henry Winter Davis. The Negroes of Maryland may forget other names, but to forget the name of Henry Winter Davis, the man brilliant and the son who risked every thing that Maryland should be a "Free State," would be to brand ourselves as inaccessible to ideas and profoundly ungrateful. Let the 12th day of October be generally celebrated by the people of Maryland, and let them praise God for the brave friends of the white race raised up to plead their cause when they were dumb and could not open their lips.

S. Abdy, Esq. "The other day I was introduced to the Turkish charge d'affaires. I asked him if there was any prejudice in his country against the blacks. His reply was that no Turk ever despised anyone on account of his skin." "I have African slaves," he said. "when they behave ill. I do not sell them, as some do.—I dismiss them from my service. They take their meals in common with those of their own rank in life, without distinction of color. It would be against the principles of the Mahometan religion to treat any human being with disdain, or to suppose that God was a capricious or a partial parent in bestowing various forms and tints on His children. "Ought not Christians to blush at the contrast? Among the Turks and Persians, Negroes rise to the highest offices in the state."

Variations in the rapidity of the air waves hitting the ear drum gives the different sounds. The lowest sounds are caused by vibrations as slow as 20 per second. High shrill sounds have vibrations as high as 10,000 or more per second. Air vibrations between 20 and 200 are covered the range of shirring or what is known as audio Frequency. One can hear-per- any sound from air vibrations that are slower or more rapid than the Audio Frequency range. Birth control is playing havoc with the fecundity of the Negro of the more favored class. It is quite clear that it is already of sufficiently wide spread operation to seriously impair the productivity of the race. Is The Negro A Living Or Dying Race? Mr. Louis I. Doublin, statistician of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, contributes an interesting article to the September number of the *Journal of the Negro race*. He is perhaps the highest authority upon that subject as he has the handling of two million cases of Negro policies in his company. His analysis is thorough and insightful. Those who have followed his outgivings on the subject from time to time are well aware of his sympathetic and optimistic attitude. He persevered in his maximum strength of the Negro element, placing the limit at fifteen million. But he is cautious enough to say that all such prophecy is hazardous and without scientific value. One man says that another's more so many uncertain factors that there is no safe guide for a sane judgment. Census Of 1920 Is Incorrect The figures of the Census Office are subject to such irregularities that they often mislead the hasty philosopher into untenable conclusions. The fact that the African population was much glomy prediction concerning the early extinction of the African on account of his inherent degenerative tendencies. These are all discredited by more recent showings. The African population is incorrect for reasons which I have picked out elsewhere. Is it easy to predict that this will be abundantly shown by the forth coming Census of, Nineteen States, so that as many effort should be stressed to see that the extinction so far so far was the Nero factor is concerned. Hardest Worked, Poorest Paid The Negro in the United States is practically a subject race and is liable to the vicissitudes of all minorities under like conditions. The issues of life bear hard upon them, and tend to grind them to powder unless they are strongly fortified by physical研究和 research. They are the highest-rated, the poorest-paid and the most ill-circled-fanced of all of the complex elements of our population. If there be a streak of weakness it will be emphasized by harsh treatment and cruel usage. The stress and strain of our mechanical civilizations is hard and severe. None but the fitted-man hope to survive. The red Indian could not stand it. He must either withdraw from the circle of its competition or succumb to it. But the Negro, so far as stood the test. The harsh exactions of a slave regime did not impair his physical vigor. Where other weaker varieties pine and die, he lives and multiplies and laughs. He has probably passed the most effective experience which he called to meet with his physical vigor intact. The transition from slavery to freedom; the sudden shifting of the basis of existence from the support of the master to his own endeavor and direction was perhaps as great a strain as any race has ever been called upon to meet. And in the million slaves in 1880 had grown into a mill of free men in 1820. This tells the story of the Negro's physical stamina as nothing else can do. Dying From Top If there is any danger of the ultimate extinction of the Negro race in this country, it will grow out of psychic rather than physical reasons, spirit of pessimism spells the doom of any people. Up to the present time the Negro race is breeding from the bottom, but is dying out from the top. Where the parents produced six to ten children, descendants are producing two of one or none. Some time ago, I made a study of the eugenics of the Negro race, published in the Scientific Monthly. I took as my basis the Negro men mentioned in the book, certain the number of children of the families from which they were derived. The average was over six children to the family. But the number of children which these educated sons and daughters had to account into account the unmarried members of the faculty, and judging from their ages it did seem likely that they were destined to improve the average. It happened that the issue of the magazine in which my contribution was published contained a study of the fecundity of scientific men with something like corresponding results, with this striking exception, the white men for the Negro race, and the proportion of the Negroes of like men were single. Birth Control Playing Hayoc According to my general observation this condition is general among the advanced sections of the school. We have to remain single from a sense of prudence or of cowardice. In the second place many married couples are childless. And in the third place a couple is married. Here in the city of Washington where we have the largest number of better circumstanced colored people, these three groups are dominant. The school regulations have allowed teachers to continue their after marriage. But the children are few and far between. The girl is playing with her the faculty of the Negro of the more favored class. How far down this prudential practice is destined to descend, is hard to predict. But it is quite clear that it is already of sufficiently wide spread opportunities to seriously impair the productivity of the race. No Children. "Thank God" A highly educated man of some fifty years called to see me the other day. He is a graduate of the university and is a member of the faculty of an important institution for twenty-five years. He is married and is highly esteemed in the social life of the community. Getting on, he returned a most satisfactory and enthusiastic answer. But when I asked him, how many children called him father, his countenance grew more and more. He would feel most miserable to bring children into the world to meet with the lot of the Negro race. This pessimistic wall indicates race suicide with a vengeance. With this brand of philosophy, that may be from the bottom too. He would be among the white race practice birth control in order to give the parents wider latitude for pleasure or to give fewer children better opportunity of education. The race would soon cease to breed from the top, and acknowledges that he does not desire children by reason of the fierce fight which they must face, and which, I believe, is limited to the Negro alone. This evil foreboding makes owards of us all and makes us magnify the *we* we have by all our actions. We have to be careful that a polyphenian should stop to think that he might possibly be the parent of a child, predestined to eternal damnation, the race of that denomination might become exinct. Why should any one be so determined to suffer the graves bound to suffer the agencies of death? The first law of God and nature is to multiply, replenish the earth and subdue it. The earth and subdue it the craven who shriveled from this God-imposed task. Those who say and do these things declare by their deeds that they lack faith; faith in the themselves and in their possibilities. Indeed, the human race would be better off if it were never reinforced from such Method Of Race Suicide The Negro is now crowding into the cities. He is becoming intolerated with the elixir of the pleasures and gattes of the city, and is using the method of race suicide. A large number of children is an abomination to the cliff dwellers of our city tenements. Those left in the country are longing to follow in the train of their kindred and friends who have preceded them, and not now be able to predict just what the end will be. But if sound counsel can be made to prevail, the Negro will maintain his own as a component factor of the American people and will be able to predict what things will be the patrimony of mankind. But neither God nor man can make any use of a drying race. AMONG THEATRES Roland Hayes' Influence Abroad Greater Than Florence Mills' ROYAL Theatre Direction A. E. Lichtman 1300 Block Penna.

And for very good reasons. The first because his climate is best a cold one: 1912, because he lives in an economic environment, more advantageous than that of any other land. America for over two centuries has been the Mecca of the job-seeker the world. It has also superficially the voluntary movement of any mass of humanity—Pilgrim Fathers, Huguenots, Jews, Irish, Bantu, and it will be found to be due as much as that of our nomadic ancestors who of that have to keep on the move, not as that TAETAIN on the move, not so much because they wanted to but because they were to America because they sought freedom to worship their God. That is true, because the God they sought most was economic betterment. Their goal is to hold the economic power, and in a new land the Pilgrims hoped to be able to better their condition. To this end the ancestors of many of our leading American families, even themselves into slavery in the colonies. Independence As the Declaration of Independence implies the majority of human beasts are either the major part of their rights provided their daily bread is fortcoming, most of us who will sing as long as he is fed and watered. Very, very few are like the bird of the fortune, and simple a passion is free from hardship and simple. And so the American Negro, North or South, by remaining at home in the country, by distance, seem incredible, is only do leave, nearly all return to become the human thine. The few, who bigger boosters of their native land Preludice Rare In Europe, the one and only white man's country, color prejuice in Georgia or Florida. But here in another problem faces the Negro. Another problem matters—a problem that is much sharper—the job. The Negro soon finds that Europe with its surplus slurps, forsakes, forsakes, forsakes. Call Vernon 6016 Influence Abroad Greater Than Flo Of Americans In Paris And Theatres place for him. Some of the most bitter and disappointed human beings I have ever met are Negroes who have come to America because of the absence of color prejudice, they would be able also to the economic essentials. Such have always almost every hand seemed stretched to get or to take what they have. For Europeans, poorer than Americans, it is a rule, much keener after money. The American has been much maligned in this. It is not he, but the European who with the money, chooses to seek social recognition. European immigrants have a tendency to accumulate money faster than native Americans. Dancers And Musicians Perhase only the Negroes who have been able to gain an economic footing in the South. These find themselves in a field all their own—a field in which their color is the most important factor in the majority of colored Americans to be found abroad are musicians. The jazz and blues, too, are black musician and performer in Europe. Jo Baker Next to the Negro soldier, the Negro musician has done most to bring the colored American to the notice of the European. There is also the Negro prize-light, the best he has been above reproach. In Paris the Revue Negue, out of which came Josephine Baker created added interest in the Negro, as at the present time Florence. Mills is doing with her "Blackbirds" in Lon- Roland Hayes But without any desire to disaparage it must be noted that the theater can chance one. It is highly popular but it does not add prestige. Their art, if it can be so called, is not as popular as by their dancing or singing but on leaving the theatre one straightway forgets. Match this up with the interest created by a great playwright. The colored American needs to cultivate more missionaries like Hayes or the late Edmund Jenkinson and the young Geronimo Negro actor if he is forced into low comedy in America, here in Europe perhaps his only limit will be his ability to have a time, when slavery was AL Theat September 12th and 13th sat its worst in America Aidridge was playing 'Ochelo, he being the only Negro in the city.' Bengla. In France French Negroes play service parts. At the actresses At the Folses-Bergere I saw the great Negro actor, Bengla playing the role of Faust's Mephistopheles, his Marguerite being a white Earl Granstaff Many of the musicians above have played before crowned heads, and other leaders of European society. As a result, he had just landed a year's contract with one of the leading cabaret there. Mr. Grandstaff has visited the city of Wales, and has played has played before the King and Queen of Spain, the late King of Roumania, the Prince of Wales, and Kemal Plashta. He has entertained admiral Brislot and Mrs. Woodrow Wilson. In Vienna he played in an opera in which he was the only colored person. He sang several songs, which made a considerable hit. Mr. Grandstaff is from New York City, and is made a member of the Association Commandery. He tells me by the way that he saw Negroes occupying more and higher ground in any other place he has been. New Yorker Rudolph Dunbar, another New Yorker, is having phenomenal success, and has played before the King of Spain. He is a cornetist and tells me that he is having a golden induction. He is a head of him he was playing in London. Josephine Baker is so well-known that it will not be necessary to mention her except to say that she has become author and artist. She has extensively advertised now at leading book-stores. It would be impossible to mention all the musicians and performers in the show, and those that may be mentioned are W. A. Johnson of the Johnson Trio and Quartette of 63 rue Nemours, whose talent at society functions at the Ritz and other fashionable places; Henry G. Walton, trumpeter of the Internationale; Robert K. Cooper, Harvey-White, Palmer Jones, Nelson Kinkead, and Roscoe Burnett, all of whom are playing at the bandmaster of the Buffaloes, plays at the Foles-Bergere, at which are also Billy Taylor, Bert Marshall, and Pallegale's Restaurant in Montmartre. Harry Fleming. Among the dancers are Harry Fleming and the Moulin Rouge, and "Snowfall" at youngster, who is the delight of audiences at the Casino de Paris. At the Jardin d'Acclimatation in the Bois de Bodigne is the Garland trout of 80 Negroes, a good meat for a meal. All in a Negro village, which is supposed to represent a plantation scene in the South of Louisiana, in the Charleston, which is still a favorite in the Paris dance-halls. These entertainers have been receiving press and deserve it. One needs not be surprised if at the end of the season someone are offered concerts or music-halls. Jordy is conductor. Al Brown While in the Garden I met Brown the boxer, who has since returned to New York. Mr. Brown enjoys a splendid reputation, besides he has won all but one of the eight fights in which he engaged, and that was a draw with Seeley, champion of Europe. Muscle Students Next in number to the entertainers are music students in the various conservatories or under private teachers. One of these I have met is Miss Katherine Yarborough of New York City. It was stated in our prominent papers that Miss Yarborough is in Paris Opera, a statement she is anxious to deny. However the paper in question doesn't appear to be so far wrong for if one hears her sing one wonders why she isn't in Opera. Miss Yarborough is very ambitious and says she intends to take two years more of study under her private teacher, who is one of a year or so in France, and then a year or so in Italy. She recently gave a recital at Other Students Among other students are Andrew Rosemond, formerly of the Martin School, who is studying violin; Louise Jones, formerly of the New York Conservatory; and Marcia rallia, Flora Conway of Philadelphia, who is studying piano; Roland Smith of Iron, George Gorman, Lawrence, and Lawrences, who are accompanist of Roland Hayes.

George W Sheffer of Canada and Alaska, who is the most prominent instructor on the faculty of the National Canadian Dance School, conducts rehearsals of chorus and principals of Ethel Waters' revue in this new gyration which Sheffer demonstrated recently at the Convention on Dance.

Miller's *Desires* of 1827 the list of shows he performed in music at. Of course there are going to be opinions pro. and con but the Miller show which appeared here the second time was Homer Tutt, Mabel Ridley, Beatrice Freeman, Hampton and Hampton, and others of equal note was a real show in its entirety. Opening with one of those ensembles the big Broadway musical productions, the show led one thru one hour and fifteen minutes of real entertainment. The musical number the latest and most over the memoirs of the composer. The comedy was as droll as any heard in this berg for sometime and was handled by Hampton and Glance Nance. The chorus was all the clothes should be in looks and clothes. The next shows on the list are "Plantation Days" which featured on the "Skin Models" Drake and Walker company and the "Club Alabam" revue. Probably the most outstanding among the new shows is the "Revue." The first production which hit this city and composed of a bevy of stars and was a real up-to-date production, was the "Peters and Johnny Wiel of the New York night club were there. "-11-1" and "Lucky Sambo," Columbia Jimmie Cooper's revue, "4-11-44". Circums shows within the early summer, many of the other shows because of elaboration in scenery and costumes. "4-11-44" was by far the best of the quartet and featured Eddie Dillen, who is a continuous run has anything to do with the decision of the best show during 1927, "Dashing Dinh" Okeh the world of Quiet would win the laurels because Eddie Lemons show has run for 110 weeks. Lemons himself handles the comedy while-Miss Olive Lopez, his wife, does the feminine lead. As a musical revue: "Dashing Dinh" is better than some of the best of 'em. We find listed among the passing shows of 1927, "Shake Rattle and Roll" "Stoppin' the Traffic," "Run-around the Bandana," "Clara Smith," All Natts Association, "Movin'" "Midnight Steppers," "Vantables of 1928" "Dixie Brexies," "Kentucky Sue," "Chocolate Box Reve," "Son of A Shiek," Harlem Scandals and "Bubbling Over," "Gay Harlem," "Fantasies of 1927," Bessie Smith's Great Tempations," "Bee Jeee Jeee," "Chocolate Babies," "Kentucky Club," "Sons of Rest," "Southland Revue."

Brown in association of the James Lowe star of "Ucley Tom's Cabs" are arentate Observations and impressions of the trip will be covered in our news service; the first installment appearing in issue. Spinning for trains seems to be my most enjoyable pastime Los Angeles has the train for us to depart. Kansas City I circled the entire Union Station, hurdling tracks and bagage platforms just in time to grab the observation of each of the California Limited. In Chicago we—Jim Lowe and my-self-bags. portfolio and typewriter reformed and when the Limited left the Union Station for Cincinnati we were reunited, usual, out of breath. We had two minutes to spare at Cincinnati leaving for Pittsburgh. W. P. Dabney rushed us to the station after commanding a taxi that had been engaged by other person who had been into one of the ail. Getting away from Pittsburgh was a classic. Congratulating myself that I was about to step on a train for Baltimore in a most impatient manner and that I had discovered that I did not have my portfolio which holds a little of everything. I dashed out of the station on the train and then I beat it; for the train, hitting on high, swinging on board just as it pulled out. Maybe they will send the portfolio to Washing-ton, where I requested and maybe they won't, anyway we're going on just the same. Baltimore Yes. we on our way to Baltimore and Washington and traveling somewhat lighter-than: when we started. After bragging about taking a shaving in Kansas and back during the War and returning to France with the same brush after nine years use—I left the relic at my cousin in Kansas and back exactly good pairs of pajamas under our pillows at the Huntington Hotel. Asleep you see many strange sights while crossing this great United States. For instance on this train now, I am looking at a white man and colored man, sleep their seating on the train, and on the white man's shoulder. I am quite sure they don't know each other and if the white man wakes up first I shall grab my typewriter and duck under a seat, when he starts talking, the State of Maryland which they tell me is considered South. Nora. Holt We had just one night to steal out in Chicago, so our very good friend Everett Thomas took us to the Apex, exclusive night club of which Nora Holt Ray is the hostess, and take it from there.

JAZZ INDEBTED TO THE JEW Besides the Negro, jazz is also greatly indebted to the Jews, says George Johnson, the current issue of *George Johnson Mercury*. "We speak of jazz as if it were a product of the Negro alone. True enough, its primary associations, ultimately from the African Southland, but in the course of its filtration from the South to a small but noisy point Manhattan Island is larger; degrer is more widely more than a sea change. It reaches from the black South to the black North, but in between it has been touched by the Negro. What a call loosely by the name is thus no longer jet black; musical missegenation set in from the beginning, and today it would be a black jazz. Perhaps it is something. Perhaps there is something more to this racial blend than the instinct of commercialization;—it may be that the American Negro and the American Jew goes back to something Oriental in the blood of both. The Nordic audience of These Jews must want to take its musical passions at secondhand, and in diluted measure; much of its thinly disguised, bovine lovemaking is its manufacture, not its music. Pan Alley. "Without - Irvin - Berlin, Jerome Kern and George Gershwin, to mention is certainly questionable, the technique of contemporary love among biot polioi would be sadly lacking in the sense of what we know as jazz is Jewish." The North AMONE THEATRES Maybelle Chew Deplores Loss Of Vaudeville Here Local Theatrical Policies Deprive Actors Of Livelihood She Says. 40 Cents Not Enough Admission For Good Shows Which Come Here. THIS SHOW BUSINESS It is with real chagir that the Royal Wildlife with the Regent already a picture house, that leaves us no place to go or course the moss backs and the ministers will say we can go to church but there is never anything going on with the cherished moss. We really kind act in their lives, sing lustfully of the reward they expect to get when the nearly gates un- fold. As for prayer meetings, unless you are the first one the leader learned, and to feel newspaper bundles at five cents a feel, and, maybe, get a chipped saucer for a prize, is my idea of a total loss of time. CABARETS CHAPLY MANAGED Cabarets can now are so cheaply attended and in such places that they appeal to the sordid class of people. Wonderland Park is no place to go when chill breezes blow. The Lincoln and the Star are not equipped to show, so we are just out of hick. One can only wonder why the change. The management didn't give any reasons. It is advertising the new as if it were doing us a favor. To me, however, they had just as well administer a swift kick in the face. When the shows were in the theatre I was content to go, confident that some of my money was going to help actors, but ninety eight per cent of the pictures are about, by and for somebody else. I am fond of pictures it is true, but would never care to see them twice a week for three or four hours. Such a practice would tire my eyes if no more. I am sure I am not alone in disliking mediocre pictures, and judging from the prices of the big pictures, playing New York, the admissions here won't bring us the best. I never did, and some of my friends tell me that they dont like custard pie comedies, and even though we may be high class morons we have outgrown wild West thrillers. Likewise it gives me a pain to see the hero ALWAYS win out no matter what the odds. THEATRE PATRONS CHEAP I can think of two or three good reasons for the change and I will wager that the change is as much as that of the management. The first is. Baltimore theatre patrons are cheap. Matty of the young sports have a seat. Being a girl to the theatre at forty cents admission. With the twenty cents left from their only dollar, they pay car fares, or (pleading over love for her) both way, and buy ice cream soda with the twenty cents. T 10c Our 15c Low 20c Prices WEDNESDAY FOREST RANGERS KYNE'S STANDING HEART JOAN GRAWFORD CARMEL MYERS ROCKLIFFE FELLOWES FRANCIS X. BUSHMAN, JR. ropolitan Production By MAYBELLE CHEW WHY THE CHANGE GALLERY ADMISSION Forty cents is the average Baltimore idea of big money, and in other cities forty cents is gallery admission fee. The days when actors made their makeup from lamp black and their costumes were so that the average show must be guaranteed at least eight hundred dollars a week to keep pointing. Some of them demand, and rightfully so, it is no easy matter to find girls with good forms, good looking faces and good hair. But yet emancipated from Saturday night bathing and clear skins are hard to find. Others, even if they have good hair, are up by mosquitoes, or cut by razors. When a producer gets up a show with the ten or twelve sharply choreographed women, four pretty leads who can sing and dance, to say nothing of good comedians and well-dressed straight men, the ensemble costs him money, but we get the机会 for a big well as well as pay salaries. This money can't be gotten from a forty cent top price. CUT DOWN TO MEET EXPENSES In New York I was told that shows brought to Baltimore were frequently on the schedule and the pay roll. Even Washington can get a full show but when they come to Baltimore they lay off a few of the girls in order to get a rotten show for our forty cents, and since the majority of the patrons think forty cents, a high price, they complain or stay. The real truth of the matter is Baltimore has been boycotted by the high class shows and the shows can be good. But little can be said are so thoroughly disgusting that it is better to let them go. LACK OF CONFIDENCE Another reason for the loss of these shows is the lack of pride and confidence in our people here. There are enough men with money in Baltimore to buy tickets. ONE man runs two theatres in Philadelphia. We certainly ought not to be at the mercy of any one's whims. Stage work is past, the experimental stage is a real money maker for anybody. We owe it to these to give them a chance. All of them young men and women who are perfect singers are a real money ring time singers of themselves. Some of them show evidences of breeding and training. They are leaving the field of the funny man and becoming a succeeds in the theater, singers and in fact, put on show. 20 SHOWS During the past season at least and many of them were twenty DIFFERENT shows passed through the Royal alone. Dozens of laws later, because the stop here have been people will lose hundreds of dollars out cut. It ought to be a matter of talented people and we ought not to let them lose hundreds of dollars for investments. Of course all of the cheap skates they rejoice in have been destroyed. They will not stop to think of the hundreds who will be killed. The skates will be practically bankrupted. UNCLE TOMISM The third reason for this castatrophe is that the theatre owners know in the people who have to make them come to the theatre. Uncle Tom accepts anything they get. Some of them will go back to climbing the stairs, but they drop dead, because there is no will be filled up with booBS and children who will make a mansance of vadeuille up, and then they utter. The place themselves now that the price is within their reach. If any one comes to town to visit you, they will take to them a fifteen cent movie. Besides if they come from a large city you'll find that they have seen most of the pictures we are getting as fresh musics. IS RACE QUESTION We have a right to idolish poor shows and a right to protest against paying good money to see them. But sludging down to nothing to cry about. If you have a budget you can put it down under charity, if you don't feel the show is up to standard. If some of our race will get part of the benefit one could but use them's tickets and not even use them. But I don't see what we are getting out of the picture program. There are only three or four colored picture books, and twice this year. That means that we must contribute our money to the exploitation and glory of Hollywood. The super-hero who is never defeated is the one that our children will not learn love brown and black. Ye gods! if only Baltimore will wake up and see! If only they will realize that this thing is an admission bigger than personal likes and dislikes. Jines And Bramelette Out WASHINGTON — Henry "Gang" Jines, and "Bob" Bramellette members of the "Watermelons" company produced by Jack Goldberg left the show here last week.

Y. — The "Darktown Scandals" a new musical revue with Eddie Hunter opened at the Gayety Theatre with music by the writer as the opening of the Columbia Amusement Company's fall season. "Darktown Scandals," is a good show, bright, peppy and full of life and color. It tells the least of story, something right the formate as a stamina company down in a Southern village. The plot of the story is lost soon after the curtain goes up on the second set, and the man for the stamina line is shown running a gin mill. However, the story serves to introduce its characters and after that is done, there is no use for any plot device. The characters carry on the rest of the piece. Hunter Good The "Darktown Scandals" company has a good comedian in Eddie Hunter, who plays the part of Rustus Lime, the salesman, and he soon meets with arrest and imprisonment. He manages to escape and is soon running a gin mill. Mr. Hunter seems to have a good time in the comedy, but his humor all the more infectious. Sidney Easton He is assisting by a number of other good comedians, notably Billy Mitchell, Nuggle Johnson and Sidney Easton. They have songs and dances to do in various parts of the show. Then there is a good straight man, Norman Astwood and a good man, and instrumentalist, in 'Bert Hogwell' Feminine Contingent The best of the female principals is Martha Copeland, a large woman who sings quite well in the city. Lola Waters and Julia Moody are other women principals who do good work. A contortionist of unusual excellence is the house with several of his stunts. Walter Sullivan is a skilled xylophonist. Kent and Bernice are a pair of舞者 who are seen at the Gampbell and Edward Farrow are another pair of "hoofers" who score several times in the piece. Route 11 shows the for the next four hours. weeks follows: Next week: meet Monday -Colonial Theatre, UStica, New York; then the Cantol, Boston, Mass.; then Waldron's Casino, Boston; then The Columbia Theatre, Broadway, 47th street, New York City.

"STRUTTIN HANNAH" BEST ON T. O. B. A. Former Keith Artist Offer A New "4-11-44;" Said To Be Original Title Holders BALTIMORE GIRL MAKES BIG HIT Many Well-Known Perform- ers Make Up First Class Singing And Dancing Show By GEORGE D. TYLER CHICAGO—"Strutting" Hannah From Savannah is about the best attraction on the T. O. B. A. circuit and patrons of the Gate Theater, and I am pleased that it is the best attraction that has played this house in over two years. The show is presented by Col. Geo Barton, owner and leader of the Mason Wilson Rikers Island Foundation, Keith Cheadle, headliner. The chorus girls give one the impression of having been selected by the past master at that trade, Irvin Howell, who was a couple of selections by Henry (Reds) Davis, the wonderful tenor, of Susie Sutton's 'Bon Ton tame'. The plot has to do with a group of people who are interested in her crave and everybody is trying to win on 4-11-24. Arship and Smith handle the comedy and Smith take care the straight. Both are too funny for words. They are also nifty dancers. Smith, as the hapepecked husband of the wife, and when he steals her six bits to play the numbers he has to get out of her way the balance of the does by hiding behind a well. Many queer, incidents happen, as do in "11-14." Mony of the folks in Harlem he heaped husband gets in power in Harlem and gets his wife told until she, turns the, tables and has insisted for theft of the proper deeds. To make a long story short, when the law is taking him away he calls for his wife. The scene shifts back to the well behind which he has fallen asleep. It was all a dream. Then too, 11-14 wins and he is ready. He declares that he never wants to see Harlem after that dream. Baltimore Girl Daisy Randolph, who appeared at the Subway and other Balto. clubs and theatres as a soubrette and featured dancer carried away the bulk play in the female department. Russell Johnson, former member of Miller's "Models" continues to remain popular as a model and a gossip, shouting old sister. She dances in a wonderful lead. She dances and sings nicely, and is well built for the role. Others Well Known Practically all the characters are well known in this first class singing and dancing show. The harmony blends gorgeously. The harmony a sense of coarseness appropriate. Matson and Richardson claim the right to the title "4-11-44"; and say that the title was changed after having been stolen from them several years ago. She is the equal of Hunter's show and although not possessed of the same class of players will make good in any large house and to any audience. Should make the white time easily. John Day was its premier. BILL ROBINSON SCORES IN LABOR DAY REVUE Bolangles and Big Time Duo Draw Mob At Lafayette Monday EVA A. JESSYE Bill Robinson certainly lived up to his bilingual as the world's greatest single Monday in the pepper Pot Revue staged by Leonard Harper at the moment the doors of the popular playhouse were opened until the fall of the final curtain a record-breaking nook and corner of the house was filled with patrons who know what to expect when a Harper production is advertised. Preval Improves The show was opened informally by one of the team of Small and Mays with first the solist, out front and a Southern scene-dimly visible thru a moonlight serim. The raising of a humble cabin in the midst of trees, cotton fields in the distance, all well lighted. Maddeline Bell and chorines finished off the number with a dance in a duet "Emaille", Miss Preval begins to justify the confidence Mr. Harper has in her ability as an im- ingredient in productions but is now developing sweet and winning personality instead of the preoccupied indifference noted before. Byrd *and* Higgins Byrd, of the smallest nose in capitivity, and Higgins connused the crowd with their antics in a sketch presumably entitled "Find the Dog." Finally Higgins inflicted attempts to go to jail. Finally Higgins hit on the idea of abusing the government as a means which purported to be "red" black and blue. A British subject sitting in the rear, no doubt subjected Gar- tards, called to Higgins, "All right, me Mon, you go to jail now." Small And Mays Then came the two mahogany princes, Small and Mays, who masquerading under the bill of Frazer the maquerrider at the front. Timers out front. These immaculate aristocrats with ukelele and guitar held the house for four songs, much of which was in the form of the Same. was perhaps their best offering though the house seemed to prefer the familiar "Sundown." The guitar playing by the larger heir was suspended, retarded and uncertain rhythms were as easy as "fallin' off a loak," and the neck of the instrument was flashy effect not to be underestimated, not to forget the careful giggle which I gathered, is a trademark.

Unoffens. Amaze What Steps. She called when Mr. Robinson called out the chorus and stated that the girls would dance along with him in a very difficult routine. Frankly, the steps would be substituted. That's where I erred. The identical steps were done, same phrases to the most obvious steps, the side of me gave defening approval of the whole proceeding. True, one or two dugged a trifle, but I imagine it was out-of-sheer delight at the very thought alone doing the same. Mr. Robinson declared that various Broadway dancers had been trying to copy the routine for the past five years and had not as yet been able to duplicate his steps. After seeing him I am convinced that for the mastery of such intricacies life is entirely too short. All around it is a wonderful show. Clean, classy and guaranteed to pack them in for weeks to come, should Mr. Harper be able to win them from the folks downtown. "Them," meaning Bill Robinson and Small and Music Mirror By EVA JESSYE Kentucky Choir The Kentucky Choir appeared in a Sunday Concert at the Cort Theatre, and so made an audition for "Show Boat" Wednesday at the New Amsterdam Theatre.

Alta Blake, doubling from Small's *Paradise* uptown, brings some unusual elements to the proceedings for prolonged applause.

There are more than one hundred, twelve thousand colored people in Baltimore, with an earning capacity that exceeds a million dollars each month. These colored people have proven that they are reliable, because of the fact that they have bought homes and are rearing families.

Most Radical Writer By RALPH MATTHEWS New York has its Lovett Fort Whiteman and Labor Congress bulletin and the White House's "Negro Spokesman," Whitney and its "Negro Spokesman," Baltimore's W. P. D. Whitney isn't half as potential as you might say, as the White House's "Negro Spokesman" doesn't use half as highsounding language as New York but the object and purpose of both are pretty much the same: be race progress. It might be bettering conditions and fighting for justice for all people. It might be just a lot of blah. To me it is just a lot of blah. To me it is just admirable. W. P. D. Whitney. Worked Way Through School Several years ago, W. P. D. W. entered Morgan College, like Fort Worth abbreviated by the day stalking the firearms of the various dormitories. Besides studying his academic lessons, stoking furnaces and a thousand other chores he did not have time to pursue a law course in a corresponding school. The correspondence school professors were decided not to enact them, school instructors and long into the night W. P. D. W. pecked away on his typewriter preparing his law studies. What was the Whitney I knew and now comes to my desk a copy of the "Negro Spokesman," a magazine published, I mean actually written and printed in the editor himself. He wrote in the shade of Morgan College, where he is now a senior. Whitney always was a fluent speaker and possessed on question he often performed an oratorical Lindberg.

HARTIG'S Eutaw at Madison Street VErnon 4442 "SERVICE THAT HELPS" An excerpt from one of the articles in the recent issue of the "Negro Spokesman" is as follows: "One of the most destructive evils that tends to destroy unity is a disregard for the common interests of the people." The Negro Am.er. in has become a victim of that evil, and has drawn certain artificial barriers that tend to divide the race into various groups or classes. There is the "hilarious black group" or the high-brown group." Between these two are various other groups, each fighting, and contending for itself. "There are some who affirm in most boastful tones that they are not of African lineage, nor does any that blood course through their veins. Trying to Escape "The Negro American has in a large measure taken on from the white American certain ideas, or concepts as to color of the skin, and the color of the hair, that whiteness of the skin, and straightness of the hair are the necessary physical qualifications for one to attain honor or success. These black skin, and make their hair straight, they will escape from their real selves. Acting upon these assumptions thousands have mapped our certain ideas that they may lose their real identity, and be considered white. The "beauty parlor," and the "hair straightening agencies," are tanglewoods that many Negroes are trying to escape their real selves. Whitney says a lot more in the "Negro Spokesman," but that's enough to let you know what he is thinking about. Yes, I admire Baltimore's W. P. D. Whitney. The Mile in Balto. In 1801 Of.

Logan Jenkins, Jr. on September 31st. In an interview Monday, Miss Killion said, that it is with real regret that she leaves her work with the Schools of Music, teachers and pupils have all been gratifyingly responsive during the three years she has been in the Music Department. In taking the post at Morgan; however, Miss Killion finds that she will not only have an opportunity to carry on her work, but by having her work in one place she will be able to make a more concentrated effort. Miss Killion said, she is being called upon to begin Music Conservatory work at Morgan which will give her an opportunity to mold the future Music at Morgan as well as the chance to cover a wider scope in music. Morgan College this year is offering a B. A. Degree in Music, with a focus on the requirements of the standard set by a wealthy patron, who has promised a building and a pipe organ. Miss Killion believes that music is an intrinsic part of life, and that the rhythm and harmony of music will so enrich and beautify it. It is Miss Killion's intension to carry out this aim in her work at Morane. She intends to give every student gets music in some form. Many Courses To that end the courses at Morne will include. Appreciation. Music History, and Chamber Music. There will be two courses and two or three groups in orchestra. In addition several special courses for advanced students will be given as well as special courses for those work in music. A degree or two will make music teaching their life work. **Baltimore** Miss Killion is a native Baltimore and producer of many minor schools.

Baltimorean HER LIFE WORK IS RAISING KIDDIES Mrs. Julia Leonard Has Cared For Other People's Children 37 Years AFRO REPORTER FINDS 7 AT ELDER STREET HOME "Ma" Leonard Has Seven Now; Winters She Goes To Night School By FAITH WOODSON "I have taken care of people's children for 37 years," said Mrs. Julia Leonard of Elder street to an Afro reporter Friday. Out of the goodness of her heart, "Ma" Leonard has a sort of day nursery. It may be called a night nursery for children to attend, or it may encourage the children there for weeks at a time. They pay, when they feel disposed to do so, but if they don't the children are well taken care of just the same. Mother Deserted Child. Amos Leonard is a baby, known to her only as James who was left by a mother who didn't want him, so he is Mrs. Leonard's own baby now, according to her. His mother was born to him and consequently is rather thin, but his devoted foster mother, is really giving him splendid attention. "I have seven children here, now three little ones, and four large ones. Some of their parents never send them to school or Sunday School when they are not home. MLM are the babies, when they are here with me." said "Ma swinging an ax in the masculine fashion as she was splitting wood for the children for two times, parents have the children for about 2 weeks, then leave them with me 3 weeks; and when some of them back to me, they're wild as kill deer, have to do all my teaching on again. While the reporter was talking to her a fine looking big boy of about 16 stopped at me, "I just want to bring Mrs. Leonard, and talking a few minutes, he passed on. From the conversation it was evident that he knew Mrs. Leonard very well. "That's one of the girls I just look at him now almost a man. I've raised dozens of them." does "In the theater I'm real busy, she continued," because "I go to night school. I'm only in the second grade, but I'm learning to read real well. Altoezer, Mrs. Leonard's opinion seems correct." Some of life, caring for 3 babies and 4 other children, and going to night school is a taxing but pleasant job.

O'Shieida, of Portersville, Ala., "my mother gave me the first dose of Black-Draught, and have taken it ever since, when I needed a medicine for constipation. I have used this remedy all my married life, in raising my children. "I have used Black-Draught frequently for heartburn, as I have had spells of this kind, off and on, for years. This follows indigestion, and indigestion comes close on constipation. It is a good way to head off trouble is to begin taking Black-Draught in time. It relieves me of dizziness, tightness in the chest and backache. "By getting rid of impurities, Black-Draught helps to keep the system in good order. I always keep it in the home, and have recommended to many people, that it is a good word for a good medicine." Sold by all druggists.

FLOWERS WINS IN ROUGH FIGHT All Football Squads Called Out for Fall Practice--New Rules Puzzling Georgia Deacon Ties White Boy In Knots To Win Every Round But 4th ANDERSON IS ON VERGE OF KAY "O" Flowers Apparently Eases Up To Carry Him Along To The Finish NEW YORK.—Tiger Flowers, former middle- weight champion, treated Joe Anderson, white, from Kentucky, a bit rough Thursday night in their ten- round bout at the Garden. The Kentucky boxer, who made impressions showing against Dave Shade, white, a few weeks ago when he fire but at the end was tired and wabble on his feet. He ere weighed 163 Flowers started off as if he meant business and never until the final bell. Toward the close of the bout Flowers had knocked, close to a knock-out. Flowers weighed 163 and Anderson 159 1-2. At the start of the oncounter the Tiger rushed from his corner and started swinging at his opponent in such a whirlwind fashion that Anderson son for a moment knocked him down. But he knocked to meet the onrushes of Flowers, and both set a fast and furious pace. Flowers kept up his whirlwind attack and both set the onrushes round. But the white boy was willing and met the furious attacks as best he could. In the rourth round the Georgia Desert shipboard boat had an instant clawed his rushes. By virtue of his easy victory Flowers further entrenched himself as the star of the Championship shot at Champion Mickey Walker. Flowers completely bewildered Anderson with his speed and awkward style and aawkward attitude, but no sooner get set when the former champion would let him have it with both hands. White Anderson got his big chance in the fourth round the Georgia Deer's jaw. The latter kept up his insight to the jaw. He made his way out of danger by feinting Joe into knots, taking every round except the fourth. A hard-driven left from the start of the Tiger game, Anderson's right eye. This seemed to spur the Kentuckian and he landed a hard smash on Flower's jaw. He latter kept on his insight and paid little attention to In the sixth round Anderson shot a terrific right to the Tiger's mitigation and take the chin. After this Anderson's eye began to close and Flowers shot in several stingers. From this stingers, on the Tiger champion had his opponent at his mercy. In the seventh Tiger ripped left and right to the chin, and opened another cut on the right temple. In the eighth Flowers landed with both hands on the body of the Tiger, tired, kept up his courage and carried the fight to the Tiger, landing hard left to the chin. But in the tenth round, with right uppercuts to the chin, Anderson was bleeding badly and slipped. As he got up Flowers shot right and left to the chin, as was all but out at the final bell. Paid admissions to the bouts were $16,248, the attendance 7,593. Godfrey-Munn—Maybe NEW YORK—Looks like George Godfrey and Monte Munn, white, will go to bat at Ebbets Field September 14. Fugazy discussed the match with Jim Dougherty and Dickie, pilots of Godfrey and Munn respectively, It's About Time! Dougherty accepted the terms for him to play the game if it over. Dan said he would put it up to the white boy and if his prowess was willing it was okay with him.

WERS Football Squads Football Game Crossw As 1927 Rules C Fans Will Have To Carry Guide Alo Fathom Out Plays And Impos Fans Will Have To Carry Guide Along With Them To Fathom Out Plays And Imposed Penalties By W. O. McGEEHAN IN VANITY FAIR By this time only the coaches, the prospective players and a few of the experts can recall the changes made by the football Rlues Committee for 1027. It might be just as well to go over the chief innovations. Here are the outstanding changes summarized briefly: 1-The goal posts have been placed back ten yards to the back line of the end zone. 2-A time limit of thirty seconds is implemeled on bringing the ball into play. 3-A limit of fifteen seconds has been put on the huddle. 4 -A pause of approximately one shift play before the ball is passed. 6- A fumbled punt hereafter will be a dead ball and not a loose ball. 6-A missed backward pass other than that from the snapper-back will be a dead ball and not a loose ball. Field Goals Harder The first innovation certainly is a trend away from Rugby and, to my way of thinking, particularly the sport. Of course the reason for this change is that football games have been won by the goal, so the goal is backed by a sustained running attack. The defense of this play that it will make the chance of the touchdown to the field goal. There is definitely fixed as to the ratio of the touchdown to the field goal. There is also by field goals and the plants there-from the losers have been dined into the ears of the members of the team to make the field for the American game look much less like the Rugby Field where the goal posts have been fixed at the same point since the first Speed Up Game The second change is an effort to speed up the game. The most conservative of the coaches or of the old grads could not quarrel with this rule. The coach, in agreement with the same goal, and I agree that 16 seconds is long enough for any conference. If conferences outside of football were limited to that time a great more might be accomplished generally. The buddie, which is the conference in football started in the middle west. It is best-together spirit applied to athletes. Officials Puzzled The fourth change will bring dismay to the officials. In addition to knowing all of the rules and variations thereof and to watching twenty-seconds, we have to attain some of the proficiency of the old time prizefight referees in gauging seconds. This may in time lead to a special time-keeper who will be stationed on the side lines with a watch in hand trying to synchronize the shifts and the seconds. Even with giving this or that team a short count, as they say in prizefight circles. In the matter of shifts and seconds. **Dumbled Punt Dead Ball** The fifth rule will prevent a spectacular melorama which has been staged now and then in the game. Picture it yourself. The score is tied. The red team goes. The team are held on the ten-yard line by the reds. The red fullback punts. The red ends swop down after the ball. The blue bases the red end tackles him "so that his teeth rattle." He is tackled so hard that he drops the ball. The other red ends scoops it up and rushes the red end tackles him down with only a few seconds to go. Of course if the game has been fairly even up to this point it is tough on the blue team. When you take away the penalty for a tumble and detract from the value or desperation or inspiration in the game the game becomes more important. When the game becomes uuller so do the players. Missed Backward Pass Missed Backward Pass It is important that indicates the trend back to Rugby. I encourages the use of the backward pass (not the lateral pass as it is commonly interpreted for no apparent reason) in this pass. The rule reads, "If any such pass made on the first, second or third down strikes the ground between bounds, either before or after having been touched by a player of either side, it shall belong to the side which made the pass at the point where the ball was struck, to the field of play, or if it goes out of bounds before striking the ground at the point where it crosses the sidelines, on the fourth down the ball is struck, to the point that the pass from the snapper-back to put the ball into play is exempt from the rule." Open Game Everything will depend upon what is done in the games games. When the game was opened up through the medium of the forward pass there were old football men who came to mourn or to scout but the change had made a better game. Some of the critics of football are demanding to know when this "tinkering" with the rules will stop and when the rules will be established as a distinct game without the necessity for annual changes in the rules. They must remember that, as a game, inter-collegiate football is a mere infant. It takes a matter of centuries to fix a game beyond the necessity for rules. A. & T. PRACTICE GREENSBORO, N. C.-A. and T. football practice started Tuesday at Birmingham High School by Barm. Jones, Fuller and Jewell. Dopesters here are centering their interest around the selection of quarterbacks in the staged between "Little Bit" Henderson, "Mal" Bell and Charlie DeBerry. Last year. Henderson replaced the veteran Bell. This year Bell hopes to backback. DeBerry, though, young, is destined to earn a permanent berth. Captain Hester has notified Coach DeBerry that he is fit and intends to lead his men to victory over Lincoln on September 30.

CLARKE Seven Men Lost Vets Back Lincoln In Baltimore SCHEDULE South Eastern Conference Football Teams Ready Tuskegee Last Year's Champs Weak This Season And May Be Dethroned Sam Langford Tells One BISONS UNDEFEATED FOR THREE YEARS WASHINGTON, D. C.—Howard's undefeated "Bison" coach, Louis L. Watson, recently returned from a coaching course at Northwestern University, Chicago. The Howard mentor sports an enviable record, having coached the team for years without a single defeat and allowing only one score a lone touch down by West Virginia) in the last two seasons. He does not figure that he knows all about the game yet and takes every available opportunity to add to his knowledge and coaching ability. In addition to his profession, he has taught at the university he has studied under Krute Rocke, Bill Roper, of Princeton, Arnold Hoween of Harvard, Judge Steffen of Carnegie Tech, J. M. Phelan of Purdue, and Dick Hanley of Northwestern. The local mentor reports gratifying results from his recent study. When asked of his system, he asked of those of the other instructors, Coach Watson said, his teams have given excellent exhibitions of the "Bop" Warner system as explanations for the success of the course at Northwestern. He figures his "huddle shift" to be an original contribution to offensive football and plans to use this style of attack again. Watson and his team are two coaches who believe in the effectiveness of the shift and both, fear that the one second pause will not prevent them from practice. In looking over the roster, it is interesting to note that nine veterans are already in Washington. They are Captain Smith, "Tick" Smith, "True" Smith, "Buck" Brown, Louis Campbell, Sidhim Simpson, and Manager "Buck" Braden. Others expected to report are "Jack" Braden, Martin Ellison, Hawkins, "Bob" Miller, Rainey, Webb, Thomas, Price, Hunter, Jefferson, and "Andy" Smith. In addition to this formidable array of recruits, he has a trot group of recruits at a resort. The Howard Schedule for the season follows: Oct. 1 Allied, (W. Va.)

Erie Satch, former national tennis singles champion, Al Moses, boxing instructor of the 'F', George Fialk, Philadelphia Blacks, and one or two utility players are fast rounding into playing form along lines of calisthenics. Glarence (Pats) Jenkins is still playing on the basketball teams of the Eastern Baseball League, and will need very little conditioning in order to take to the courts. The team will play in 'Rennance Casino' as a former season, their schedule calling with the best teams in the East. BY HYPE IGNE IN N. Y. WORLD The truly great fighter is always looking for some young cub to exploit. There never was a better one than think at one time or another, that he had uncovered a man destined to succeed himself as a champion or as a near champion. Sam Lanford dug up a Negro giant one time, young and full of ambush. He told Sam that opportunity was the only thing in the novel, and the lustre of the long line of Negro warriors. Sam was going pretty well himself at the time. It took a Negro of 15 years to train him in Negroford those things, for there was always the chance of Sam pulling his coat and saying: "All right, brown boy, let's demonstrate disobjection now." But along comes a brown boy, yes, boy who ran more toward chony. Sam had been having a deal of trouble with Joe caneatier. He and Joe had been having a number of fights and Sam thought: "Well, I'll coach dis chump and when Ah gits him schooled to a turn, Ah'll be in and see what HE can do will die." They met, did Joe and Sam's pupil. Sam went into Kid Pupil's pupil. First round—not so good. Pupil couldn't get away from Joe's wagontugged left somehow. But when he came back to his corner. Sam mop up the corner. Joe's pupil. Pupil. All right. Ah say. You keep af�h him. Xouse winning hardily. TUSKEGEE INST. Ala.—Knowville College opens the Southeastern schedule with a game with Bluefield at Bluefield on Sept. 24th. Coach Moore had a splendid team last year and has a sufficient number of old men, together with the addition of new recruits to have a team with plenty of fight. With Captain Fowles, All-American fullback; Ridgeway, Cain, Gathers, Pegues, Mathews, Gary, Davies, Marsh, Pegues and Dixon to depend on. Coach Moore ought to depend on a good showing in his initial game. Fisk Fisk should be stronger than it was last season. Coach Moore well drilled team and one that gave promise of effective results. With additional team relationship, and a keen desire to replicate, well drilled team and one that gave promise of effective results. With additional team relationship, and a keen desire to replicate, well drilled team and one that gave promise of effective results from the noted Nashville school. Ghee, Yost, Woods and Walker will be found in the line-up this year. Little is known about the possibilities of the team at Tennessee State. Four Conference games out of an eight game schedule have been carded by this institution. Tennessee State played 22 when it plays its opening game with Simmons University at Nashville. Morehouse Morehouse College has arranged a very attractive schedule, and with Coach Harvey '99 from Tommy Hemingway, the Marathon team may be counted upon to take the field stronger than it has been in several years. The team is led by Alabama Brown, Allen, Howard. Alabama State Normal and Clark in the order named during the month of October. The tussle with the Tuscarawas Tiger will be in Atlanta on November 18th. Talladega Talladega will have Cooper, the forward passing ace, in the backfield. Coach Kindle has been East all summer and he may be expected to replay the game with excellent football ideas. There should be plenty of fight in the line and the backfield should stack up with other Conference teams. Florida A. and M. College. The Florida M. College should have an improved team this year. At the close of last season Coach Byrd. former Lincoln erid star, had built up a team that was going strong, with capable material and with the usual enthusiasm the "Alligator" supporters are confident of a successful season. Ala. State With Campbell, Johnson, Moore Hall, Garners and others of splendid rank, the Normal will show class this season. Bertrand J. Jacobs, clever Hampton Institute quarterback, will lead up to the game. He will four letter man from Wilberforce University, will serve as line coach G. Johnson Dunn and G. H. Lockhart of the Macharach Grants will also assist with the eleven. Tuskegee Tuskegee is not expected to be as its brilliant backfield, led by the plumbling halfback. Ernst T. Balley, will no doubt keep the Tigers in the running. If the team comes through as usual, the team will be serious conference contenders. Morris Brown Until it is known into whose hands the destinies of the athletics activities will be entrusted, little can be said about them. Last year the team made a good showing. A. U. The outlook for a good team at Alabama is that the large number of letter men are expected to return, and replacements possessing a splendid knowledge of the game will be years that McPherson will be the mainstay of the team. Recent announcement that "Whirlwind" Johnny Reed will be associated with "Chief" Alen as assistant coach at Atlanta University, touches a large following of the Crimson team, and athletic activities of this institution to be watched with interest. Clark The ambitionist Buck, and Baker and Johnson in the backfield at Clark will be a hard trio for any team to stop. During the few years that Coach Taylor has been at Clark he has been the football team, and the Panthers are expecting one of the best years the football team, and the Clark team had a smashing attack and developed a good passing attack. Santop's Broncos Walloped POTTSTOWN Pa — Pottsstown to Santop's Broncos on Sunday 22 to 2 Three of Santop's pitchers. Thorpe were Santop's batters all over the field. Just keep after him. Youse winnow! "The second round found Pupil on the floor four times. He was winning. Youse am doing famous. Youse are winning, winning hands down." Pupil looked queerly at Sam but said nothing, tips up so scarcely that he could not find him on the floor four times. He was seeing rainbows and hearing pink sparrows. He had been an amateur, but the cows was transform into beds of buttercups. King-faced cows licked his wounds and he was just beginning to enjoy the scenery. He was in his arms. He was conscious only of his feet dragging through great patches of daisies. He felt himself flipped over and somebody on Niagara Falls.

A ninth innning rally which nette them five runs enabled the Black to beat Bohraharsa 8 to 7. In the first game of a doubleheader at Maryland Park, Sunday. In a pitching duel between Hubbard and Yokelp, the Visitors won the nightcap 3 to 2. **HOW it Happened** "Up until the first contest Lunda and his crew had the first contest tucked away 7 to 3. Then in the last minutes' rush with one, Bill Force drove out a line drive to Smith in rightfield, the ball getting away from him and Egleton and Brown pulled up to third base. Monroe was an easy out, then Farrell became erratic and peeved because Holloway hugged the plate and in trying to pitch close to him gave the latter a base on balls. "Babe" Buth Wilson was taken by the pitcher and began to bow to a homer. Farrell's first inshoot conencted with Wilson's bat and the ball wetted sailing over right field fence for a homer giving the locals an 8 to 7 victory. The ball was charged and charged Wilson with "dollar bills" as the hero of the day. Force In Belief Bole "Bill" Force who relieved Strong in the eighth inning won the game for the Sox. He not only pitched shutout ball in those last two stanzas but connected for the bingle that really sewed up the fray. Bees Score Early The visitors started right out after the game in the first inning. "Bob McClure on the mound for the Taylormen was shelled over the lot and it seemed for a while that Taylormen had netted a dozen tallies. Reild the first man up singled to left. Smith lined out to Holloway and White reached first on Jackson's error on his not great Lunch. Lunch and center field fence and Reld scored. Marell lifted a long fly to Washington. White scored after the catch but Lundy on his attempt to make third was tossed out by a pretty throw from Washington to Jocko Wilson. Three More In the next frame Jones' single. A walk to Lewis. Farrell's double and a triple by Smith gave the visitors three hits. At thisuncture McClure had stood about as much as he could and gave way to Strong. Sox Score The locals in the fourth and fifth managed to ease over three runs off the southpaw slams of Farrell. The team was able to double White's error of Wilson easy roller and a double by Jackson brought across two runs. In the latter stanza Monroe doubled to right and scored on Holloway, who also doubled. White still game the first contest offered nothing exciting until the final inning. It went three hours strong who relieved McClure was slow as a leap. He was able to double the seventh inning and then they touched him for two runs. White Clouts Homer It was in this seventh frame that Chaney White woke up the crowd by hitting over left field fence for a homer. Second Game The second contest was as usual played in a "iffy" as darkness settled over the field. "Hubbard oppose Yokeeley who has now won the name to his slants and it was apparent that they would run up a score in the early frames as they did in the previous contest but the breaks were against him and the team advanced on Smith's sacrifice and scored when Clark threw in center field in an attempt to get White at second. Holloway's triple and Wilson's sacrifice led the locals the trying in the latter half. In the second inning Wagner, the new addition to Seadiers singled store second and scored on Hubbard's single to right. The Bees scored in fifth and Scoot the seventh, the game ending 3 to 2 in the visitor's favor. Nine Error! In the first game the Bees made five errors and the Sox four. The hitting of Holloway and Wilson for the locals, Redd White, Lundy and Wagner for the Bees featured. The attendance was estimated at 2,000. Next Sunday the locals will meet the Cuban stars here in a game. Call Vernon 6016 The Cubans won the opener by taking a commanding lead in the sixth game of Baro's first home run with a pal on the sacks. Oscar kept the nine binges of Hildale well scattered throughout the nine frames. He batted on a batting rampage on the nightcap to collate a total of 15 solid blows while Script Lee was holding the Cubans to a quartet of binges. Captain Briggs le his teammates with the stick in the tip, gathering a trio of safe swats. ATLANTIC CITY—The Black Sox dropped this second straight game to the Bees here Tuesday 15 to 7. Bowers started on the mound for the victors and was knocked out when the locals rallied to score 8 runs, Yokelie and Strone were in the relief role. Henderson started for the Bees gave away for Farrel in the second after the Sox had made five runs. PHILADELPHIA--Hildale defeated the Cuban bill at Hildale Park winning the morning same 8 to 4 in the second half, and added to five hits. Phil Cockrell came to the rescue of Porter Charleston the Swarthmore rookie and gained his second win in three days 6 to 4 in the fourth. Pedro San was hit hard in the morning contest, when the Daisies piled up eleven binders. Judv Johnson's timely single in the third inning put the home team out in front and three runs in the fourth put the home team out. Home run drives featured the second battle. "Blitz" Mackev put the Daisies in the scoring column with four hits in the first inning, with Thomas on first base. George Carr came through with a titanic blow over the right feld fence in the sixth inning with the bases empty. He hit with the sacks loaded in the third inning finished Charleston's stay on the mound. Cockrell was a complete puzzle to the visitors. The victories gave Hildale the lead in the first half to one and dropped the Cubans from first place in the league race. A duet of homers by Fagan and Jones each, enabled the East Baltimore Eagles to walleth the St. Monicae Tossers in a doublebill Sunday 21 to 10 and 14 to 2. Wilson Park Wins By Forfeit Failure of the Baltimore Giants to show as per schedule save the Wilson Park Giants a twelfth by forfeit Sunday. Next Sunday the Park Boys will meet the Federal A. C.

Starks, southpaw on the winners was the hard but managed to keep the blisters scattered. Baseball ON THE BIG TIME YER OUT!! By THE ARBITER Sox Have Only Four Games To Play; Cubans Likely Flag Winners; Lundy Talks Of Club Guarantee And Rotating Umpires. With just 4 games to play after Thursday, the Black Sox will end their Eastern League schedule here Sunday when they meet the Gobans Stars at West Port Park. A man in a black shirt and hat stands with his hands on his knees. He is facing away from the viewer. The background is a blurred landscape with trees and buildings. The locals have been rained out upon several occasions doing the second half and will probably suffer of those of the Sunday doubleheaders which without a doubt would have been won has thrown the Sox back to such a position that any chances for winning half pennant are gone After winning from Harrisburg Thursday the locals managed to split Sunday and Monday with the fast moving Bacharach Giants. Sunday the Sox will meet Pomper's Islanders in the closing curtain games as far as the league is concerned. The Stars have been lucky enough to break even with the locals upon each invasion here this summer. Vargas at short and San in form it is apparent that the Islanders may pull their concluding seven games thru to victories and thereby cop the second half permanent. Dedicacy due to rain has benefited the Stars. In the final: spurt the Cubans will meet the Royals at Brooklyn, two games, Sox here, and Harrisburg in three contests. With the exception of the Sox, both contenders are weak and chance for the seven games seem probable. Bacharachs The Cubans Stars started the Bees on a slump three weeks ago which they have never been able to overcome. The lowly Royals who have been dropping games right along to other teams have been the City and grabbed a series from the Bacharachs. It wasn't that the Brooklyn team got the breaks but superior playing counted. Farrell and Hubbard have been trying to brunch of the Bees pitching and within last few days it has begun to sell on them. Lockhart and Roberts instead of being in mediocre form have been victims of circumstances. Then they that's all. It is said that "Red" Grier is back in form and will get into the game this week. Lundy Speaks Manager Lundy said Sunday that what the league needed was a forfeit method for league games. At least $2,000 would be put up by each club in order to guarantee smoothness and would be completed. Had such a method been in force the Lincoln would have never dropped out of the league and such trouble with players and impiims now would be avoided. Lincoln would be in the league for nagging players and incompetent arbiters. Heretofore it has been the policy of some players to run the clubs leaving the managers without any say so whatever. The manager is where the guarantee method is used the clubs do not have any trouble at all regarding schedules and players. The nagger is told what to do and if he finds it impossible to keep the guarantee method is set aside he is dropped. The only feasible plan for breaking up poor umplimg is the method or rotation umplimg is Lundy. Once the above conditions are brought about in the league, there will be smoothness and Hilldale The Daisies who have been perched between third and fifth place for the last few weeks will end their season next Tuesday when they meet the crew since the shake up of the offseason, before fighting to gain first place but the pitchers failed. Ryan is said to have jumped to the Grows while Winters. Lee, Campbell and Cockrell have been on the independent team, the batting all season and has been a wonderful asset to the Darbites. "Bizz Mackey, the jumping boy from Japan has failed to show that old winning punch and the Bolden crew has not made a decided spurt since Harrisburg Beckwith and his Senators have been fighting with all their might to overcome the Daisies and land the third place berth, but it has been only an up and down affair. Another hope up there is that he probably seen the Harrisburg clan leading the league. It has been the pitching of that boy, who was left out by the Black Sox that has kept "Becky" in the running. There is a chance that the Senators. Jenkins, Perez, Cannady Charleson, Beckwith, Dixon and Johnson are all 300 hitters and among the best in the league. Excluding "Babe Ruth" Wilson. Jenkins is the most consistent swatter in the lea- Royals "Dick" Reddiness's boys although they will not figure in the closing game, but the one club and that's Pompez's Stars. The two teams meet twice before the season closes. The two clubs compete in the final game next Thursday at Brooklyn. Bees Shut Out Pleasantville PLEASANTVILLE. N. J. — The Bacharach Giants shut out the locals here Saturday, when a "nuzzle to the Jerseymen holding the losers to four scattered hits," while his teammates hitherto a total of 14 safe drives off the field, "Dick" Lundy had a field day at the expense of the Pleasantville collecting four safe drives and two chances without a missile.

JOHNSON'S TRIPLE OVER JENKINS COSTLY Got No Breaks PHILADELPHIA—Phil Cockrell's masterful pitching and the able support of his teammates were sufficient to hand the Harrisburg Giants a coat of kalsomine in a fast and interesting game at the Darby Hall park, at the Daries in Palm Bay. A total of eight safe blows was garnered by the up State Club swingers, but so effective was the Daisy hurler that the hits were scattered through seven innings. Only in the final frame were the Giants able to connect for two hits in the same in- The Daisies combined their efforts is well as hits to the second inning and pushed over a trio of tallies for the only scores of the game. It was a great way for the Johnsons. This contingent was a big factor in an afternoon pastime. After one had been retired in the second inning, Judy Johnson forced Carr at second base for the second out. Bill hit a hot grounder straight at Cannady and reached first base when the Giants' third-baseman booted George put the Daisies in the scorning-in-column by socking one of Cooper's binders over Fats Jenkins's head in left field, scoring Judy and Bill. George also dented the rubber when Cockrell doubled sharply to left field. HBG.

At the Bacharach Park, the Bees annexed the morning game, score 4 to 3, while the afternoon tilt went to the visitors, score 6 to 0. Big Bob McGluee has twisted some cases here, but his work in the second game was the best ever. He was nicked for only five balls, while Roy Roberts and Hubert Lockhart were found for eight safeties. Jack Grier accomplished everything that was necessary for an auspicious come-back, after a lay-off of almost an entire season. It was weaker than it would have known it, so steady did he pitch through the entire nine innings. He held the slugging Baltimoreans to a half dozen bingles. He only had one really bad innings. That was the hit to left field for a double, and scored two runs, giving the visitors a temporary lead. After this short spurt by their rivals, the Bees added a little steam to their blows in lower brackets of the game, and crossed over the two runs which won the game.

"Dick" Lundy, Bacharach Giants' leader hails from the metropolis of the sunshine state. Lundy was a student at Florida Normal State College when he got his first job as a coach. Then he aired playing "one-eyed cats batter" which was one the favored games among youngsters. Then he joined the varsity nine and showed such marked progress in handling the sphere that the next year, he was named the Eastern City. Last year his dream became a realization as his club won the Eastern League pennant and was barely out by Chicago in the World Series. Lundy joined the Bacharach Giants in 1916 after playing a little independent baseball around his home town. In 1918 and 19 he was with the Hildale Daisies. Then in 1923 he was with the Jersey Jets, however, he moved up to manager of the Atlantic City Bacharach, only to drop down in 1924 and 25 in favor of Henry Lloyd. The result of a dream one night, Lundy returned to the fold as leader of the Bees in 1926 and won the pennant, was his greatest season, baseball. Lundy holds down the shortstop position on his team and is rated by critics as the best in the game. He is married, his wife being Mrs. Katharine Lundy, who also is one child, a little Miss Little Mae Laundy, and his mother, Mrs. Millie Legare, both of Jacksonville.

Many have been on a health diet. They could eat only the choicest food right out of the kettle. Some of our alleged leading students have occupied suites in Atlantic City's most exclusive 'servant's' quarters. A few of our A pupils about town have mingled with the chauffeurs of the first families. They were on speaking terms with the blue bloods of Newport, the conversation was confined to "Home James." Preparing Milady's vacation wardrobe required great expenditures due to the high price of aprons and caps. A lot of folks went abroad and some were not lucky enough to get a job on a ship. Some guys idea of a red hot trip is stocking furnaces in a boiler room. They tell you they have been on a European tour just because they have been hungaring goshawk in a Greek restaurant. Their idea of climbing the Swiss Alps is lugging a tray up a six flights to a fat swede. Every time they pass through an early morning fox on their way to work they pretend they're in London. As near as some folks get to an ocean voyage is taking place they have indulgence. One guy is so afraid of water he straps on a life preserver every time he washes his neck. A number of our best boys are returning with well established stop-air record flights. Many are full fledged elector pilots now. Our boys are covered with distinguished service medals for flying from the first to tenth floor without being forced to land. Our society dames could be seen with their carriages on the driveways of the parks only they were pissing them. Their arms have a beautiful tan from fishing for desperate crockery in the dishpan. Their school girl complexions have been surprised from exposure to the hot rays of the kitchen range. Every Monday they went motor-boating on the washing machine. The men's idea of big game hunting is slapping at man eating mosquitoes along the Jersey shore. The onl ything they caught they could bring home were malaria germs. A few folks went across the border but the rest had to drink whatever they could get. After imbibing Canadian gin they came directly home in wobbly detours. They needs tried to observe the amendment but their stomachs were against law and order. Drinking good liquor isn't a crime in this country, it's an accomplishment. Now that their laborious summer vacation is over they settle down to a winter of hard work. BEAUTY HINTS WHAT CLIPPERS CAN DO Where is the woman who hasn't a friend? For her this talk will mean little; but to all others—much. Two young girls put their heads to their knees. They watched the barber close in as he piled his trade and learned the way he used them. Now they make trips to the costly shop but sellen and find their hair much less expensive. This is the secret; the girls trim each other neck and thus keep daily most perfectly groomed. These fine hairs that grow down the neck and give such an unkewed appearance to the toilet keeper kept away. If you have a friend this. America "Tea-ing Off" Are the American people becoming tea-total? One might think so from the great falling in tea consumption the last year. We have 100,000 pounds less tea during the year, than we did during the year前. At least that much less tea was imported. Still the tea-tainers had enough to do. We sipped a good 100,000 pounds in 12 months. AFRO FASHION By Aunt Dilsey 5850 5864 use of Patterns. 10 cents in postage stamps only.

She turned down invitations to lunch or dinner and said decidedly to the suggestion of taking in a show. The girl who goes out with her boss is headed for trouble. She heard that on all sides, and there was an unfortunate example in her own dress when she was 16, her eldest sister had an affair with her employer, who was a married man. It ended the way most of those affairs did; his wife found out, kicked up and Mary lost her job. She cried a lot as did most of the kids. Maria and Joe, the eldest brother, (her father was dead) got mad and called the man names, although Helen was supposed to be too young to know about such things, she knew she had a baby. When she came home, however, she was alone. Helen wanted to ask what had become of the baby, but she lacked courage. Mary's trouble haunted her for a long time. She reasoned out that the man had had all the fun and Mary had had to pay. Nothing like that was going to happen. Helen decided. Then she got her first job. It was as a secretary and stenographer in Hillson's bank. She was directly under the cashier, was impossible to keep John Day at a distance. He struck her as first as pretty young for this job. He was under 30 and he was always loking over her learned that his manner of joining depositors was partly responsible for his success. However, he didn't confine his jollying to the client. All of the girls in the office came in for her. Helen tried to be on her dignity, but she had only been at the agency ten days when one night as she was putting on her hat, he said, "What's on her nose?" Helen pursed her lips. It was on her tongue to say, "None of your business." "Isn't Harriet," she answered. "What's on her nose?" "H. M." "I bet it's Hester," he came back at her. Helen knew he was merely trying to make conversation, so she shortly said, "It's Hester." "Pretty well," she said. But Helen said nothing. She did not see how her name should interest John Day. She thought she was a girl, but she was young actress. However, it seemed that she had gone the road and left him alone. She was lonely, like company and looked and saw it. She hurt his eyes any to glance in her direction. She was prepared for this and had long ago mapped out her own method to beat him. "Nothing doing," she snapped. "I have my own friends, thank you." All the way home Helen smiled to herself at the neat way in which she had called John Day down. She had shown him pretty plainly that she wasn't the kind of girl who looked around with her boss, although, unlike Helen's employer, John was not. The next day he barely spoke to her. He was out of the bank most of the day and just before closing time he came in. "Got time to take a couple of letters, Helen?" he said. "Yes, Mr. Day," she replied. But he never let on he noticed that she was calling him down. That ended the conversation. John dictated a message to Helen. "You shouldn't type them tonight. They can wait until morning." he told her as she closed her notebook. Helen thanked him still and began to put a hair her things. He sat at his desk staring into space. He was a good looking fellow enough, brown-haired, large black hair. He was stalked to his head. He had nice teeth and a large mouth and he laughed a lot. His hands were worth looking at, too. They were smooth and clean, with seal, his college ting, as he told Helen later. Then suddenly he remarked. "You missed a good show. When it comes to the next day, you need it. Hare places alone." Annie was the big boss secretary. She was over 30 but everybody called her by her first name and the men all said she was a good scout. She pretended her news didn't matter. She had discolorated her印不偏面, but she had a lot to learn about Johnny Day. It was nearly a week later and again about closing time, when he said. "My girl's gone on the road and I suppose he would never have an evening you could devote to clarity." There was such a funny grieved note in his voice that Helen smiled in spite of herself. Call goes out with you charity! She asked, "What are you going to do, and learn forward," see Here, he learn, "to give this straight in that hobbled head of yours. Red Riding Hood's wolf never appealed to me as the Wolf of the role I'd like to play. If you'll have dinner with me and you home as early as you say, What about it?" It happened that Helen had a date for the Royal that night. Day looked so offended when she told him that she had to explain it. And the wolf promised that she promised to go with him the next night. "They went to the Regent and he treated her fine. He told her many things about theatre on the stage. Then he had been in the newspaper game and now he was in our bank. Helen fell under John Day's spell. She got into the habit of going out with him on the stage, and then he learning he used to talk to her about his girl. Rosa. "I suppose you are waiting to earn money to get married," she said to him one day. He looked at her. "I asked to help Helen. "What gave you that idea? I was born a bachelor, I like girls too well to tie up with one and he laughed." That hurt. In spite of her good resolve, in the end he held heels in love with her boss. But she told herself she was no walking and that she wouldn't be John's girl. She suceeded and she went up the point of suggesting that she take her place. Annie Carr, the big boss secretary, took the him a philanderer. Annie said she was in line for a big bump if she didn't watch out. John Day couldn't be true to any girl. As soon as he was sure she was, Annie said she were the night they were dining at the Tent. There was a settee along the wall and John was sitting beside her. Then he slid along and suddenly put out his arm to draw Helen the knife. Annie asked, when she had recovered from her shock. John gave her a funny look. "Sure, and she knows now we have reached the chapter. I don't like long distances." "I hate petting," said Helen, feeling sorry for Rosas as well as for herself, and trying to hurt Jill. "I don't believe it." he said. "A little petting now and then, and now and yet, but girls and men!" could Helen help them, but Oh, behave." That never kept any man in order. CHAPTER 2 NEXT WEEK. Does The Hair Scientists differ somewhat on this subject, but a brief period. but a brief period. After death, the board ceases to grow at death. Apparent growth of the hair and beard after death is explained by the shrinkage of the soft tissues around each individual hair. The shrinkage is caused by the liquids of the muscles. Those scientists who believe there are authentic cases of the hair actually growing after death admit that such growth is not caused and that the growth continues but a brief period. Woman's Viewpoint BY LILIAN LOTTIER Woman's Viewpoint BY LILIAN LOTTIER SNOOKUMS Snokum is a dear, little, soft ball of brown and white fur who had the misfortune to be born in a large city where both cats and dogs live. Like some of the off-spring of human beings, he was unwanted and abandoned. I somehow cannot think the mother cat was the one who helped her helpless young with the same readiness and callousness as do some civilized and enlightened humans. I am inclined to believe that Snokumms was the victim of the thoughtless cruelty of a two-legged animal. The man-whom I take the-honor-of-marrying (me-Wow! Look out for fire works)-picked me up and brought me to a tiny house who couldn't even lap him to a busy house-wife with family enough of her own. And, they are trying to limit divorce. The first appressed me of the arrival of this new and uninvited member of my household. Or rather, yardhold, for already two cats had decided that 800 as many cats and lodging house-down-stairs as my alert and managing housewife would have done. As soon as I saw the engaging little mite, I knew I was going to take care of the young and helpless. However, I put on a convincing frown and pretended that I couldn't take care of another cat. Instantly, a six and a little Miss Nine, Young Master Fourteen, in his masculine disgust at feminine fobiles distraught grammar and the fact that he is a high school student and a Mom, a grandmother, to have nothing. Which was a very unjust accusation considering the fact that a long succession of lady mothers in the maternity hospital, and I had probably taken care of and cherished numerous sets of kittens until such time as a kindly fate had removed them. However, I happen to know that youth's judgments are both hasty and harsh, and largely based upon the reaction of the moment. So, I did not deign to defend myself against the unreasonable judgments that there are few occasions in life when it is advisable to either explain or defend one's self. A dignified silence is generally far better conceived. When it does not to bend a stern and accusing gaze upon the one who had brought in that mowing bundle of lost and hungry kittenhood. I do not know what philosophy about ex-feminine marriage has evolved for himself throughout the years. But, I do know that it is an unusually brave man who won't stimmer out some kind of an explanation that the safely married wife has been married to the marital bark is worse than the marital bite. So, that gentleman grinned rather sheepishly and said, "Well, he was so little and cute, and he has been out in the street all day long." He was not out in the street all day over. He came mildly near it several times. Once, an man actually got out of his car, lifted him out of the middle of the street and put him on the pavement. I just got so sorry for him that I was so ashamed. Well, I couldn't bluff any longer, even though I was certainly enjoying the whole business. You couldn't have been so happy in family life. Just simple little things which knit hearts and lives together. Trifling incidents east upon the waters of loving memory to return after many days to cheer and comfort one's delicacy. And it was fun for me to stand there in the gaze of uncertain fate and see little Mr. Ski and little Miss Nine tumbling all over her bed. I was fortunate to be the young Master Fourteen with his censor of grown-up masculine restraint, which poorly covered an cancer desire to知 of the that kiddies. It was fun to know that the one who was resisting was glancing at me half hopefully, half doubtfully. Well, as I said, I couldn't bluff long. Attacked without and without captivity, I was a member of the family and given the meaningless but intriguing appellation of "Snokumks". A tiny bottle with a tiny nipple happened to be in my pocket and in this way Snokumks was fed his milk until he had learned to lap. He is now very much at home and very much one of us. But, is that all? Isn't there more than just these surface facts of a simple little incident of daily living? To me there is something For.—I can't think of Snookums very long without thinking of the unknown motorist who got out of a commuter car action enough, and you one which somehow warms the cockerels of the heart of those interested in this old world and the humans beings which inhabit it. The humans beings of hit-and-run drivers who callously leave their unfortunate victims to suffer unaited, and the maned bodies of animals are so common on our highways that such actions as that of the unknown motorists to restore one fast-dwelling faith in mankind. There are those who tell us, you know, that the world is worse than it used to be, that human beings are more likely to be going away but surely going to the bow-hows. Of course, most of us are too level-headed and steady-minded to believe these cloose prophets. Some one had said that of the world the human beings of its perfectness, or its imperfection, but by its tendencies. Most of us believe that the "tendencies" of mankind are leading it upward and onward. Gradually by the way, the human beings of its nature is evolving into something higher and better. As Helen Kellar says: "We are stumbling in the dark, but we are facing toward the light." Amid all the harrowing experiences we have on every hand, it is not always easy to be hopeful and optimistic, to keep in tact one's faith in the human species. It takes patience and courage and wisdom, it takes the constructive, far-seeking, broad-mindedness. And, we need such folks. The world is full of people who don't believe in anything or anybody. To their way of thinking all men are selfish, scheming rascals and every woman has her price. To them human nature is incurably heartless. Inోன்ற, and that is, they expect the most in our earthly life, and everybody. This is the course of least resistance, this is the way of the small-minded, petty-sollied pitiful individual. It is easier far to be a pessimist than an optimist. To see good rather than evil. It is easier far to roll down hill than to climb the mountain side. But, it is on top of the mountain that one gets the view, that one gets the true perspective of things as they are below. You generally see more than you are looking for in this world. If you believe that there is good in mankind, and persistently and consistently keep your eyes open for the good, oftener than you perhaps expect you will not be disappointed. Faith in folks is a beautiful thing to have, and is certainly worth cultivating. So, Snookums not only to me is the chance to teach my kiddies love for and kindness to dumb animals, but that little bundle of fur is also a reminder of a stranger's kindly need and to put out one of others which help me to keep my faith in the ultimate deity of the human race.

Molly climbed down quickly not without fear in her heart, and the other down she saw that the little gnome had a broken leg, but fortunately nothing worse. The other gnomes knew Molly and she had cared him up carefully and took him inside to her doll's house. The little gnome was very brave and though the pain was very great—he said not a word. The other gnomes stood by watching, as she lifted him up and took him inside to her doll's house. Well, Molly kept him there for a week, till his quite well and then she took him home to fairyland. The gnomes at Fairyland gave Molly a darling kiss and sleep. Then and only then did Molly tell Mummy about it, for you see, Mummy might have wanted the gnome and that could not be allowed—oh well!

Naming things wrong has done a great deal of harm in the world. For instance, it is a pity that a nasty temper was ever called a "high-tempered" person, but he is "high-tempered" when as a matter of fact he has a despicable or abominable temper. More accurately, our "high-tempered" gentlemen and ladies are merely people who lack self-control and do not care to take the trouble to exercise any. We call we a high-tempered person is much more truly a low-tempered one—low in the sense of being "high-tempered" but low-tempered. Instead of "high-tempered" they would be more ashamed of their weakness and not be so ready and willing to confess to it. VACATION OVER "Get out your little things," said ma. "today we have to pack.

The Army Air Service, however, says, that an aviator in possession of all his faculties would be aware of the fact if he were upside down and not aware of the altitude at which he might be flying. It is possible in dense clouds for an aviator to lose his sense of direction and not be aware of the fact that he is flying upside down unless he consults instruments.

The uniformed official was summing the frightened immigrants, who had passed the outer preliminaries and had come to his desk last before being united to the anxious relatives. A bare room overlooking the harbor, with rows of benches on which frightened immigrants sat, were a traditional peasants, kierchefed heads, picturecustumes, some of them; tawdry fripperies and cheap store clothes, many of them. The witnesses in a little room adjoining filed in one by one, and answered the questions asked. The witnesses correspond with the papers before the official. The would-be Americans sat and trembled, or stood facing their witness relatives over the railing, their soils ready to leap out of the ground, their eyes answered properly, the last bit of red tape accepted, embraces, tears, ejaculations of joy. Mothers and sons clutching each other frantically; fathers weeping over them, the uninitiated it was harrowing. "But not nearly so harrowing," we were told, "as to see the rejected ones, and the tragedy of their waiting relatives. Male-skinned man, with iron grey hair, pleasant smile and easy manner at the desk chatted casually with the immigrants. German—you rather expected that. Spanish, yes, Russian, Yiddish, Italian, Sicilian, Italian—in all dialects. Another unfamiliar dialect—Maltese Polish, of course, Ukrainian. Swedish. How the faces would light up when the familiar tongue of their fatherland rolled easily and lightly from the crowd who represented grim and forbidding Authority. It was Sai Solomon, of New York, formerly of Washington, D. C., twenty-four years immigration official in the family. The "Bambina" are terror-striken. It is all so huge and grim, and this swartly man may find some way to send them back on the great ship. Eight pairs of great dancers, the "Bambina," the mother twins her work-guaranteed fingers. The father, and elder brother, resplendent in American clothes, for they have lived in this land for some years, pulp on the witness stand, and have been frightened. He cannot remember how old he is. But Mr. Johnson smiles gently, and talks about dancing, about spaghetti, and the child chuckles, and answers merrily. He leans over the rail, and he stares at the camera. He loves spaghetti, and how he can dance. Mr. Johnson fights a jest, and the bamboo jests in return. The whole family smiles; the mother wipes her hand and brother get the hard questions straight; another instant and they have passed the examination, and are locked in each other's embrace. They clump out of the room, chattering and back over his father's shoulder, where he has been elevated in triumph, and kisses his hand to his friend. He will always love this new land, because he met sympathy, and understanding as and understanding as his child experience. It is because he has children of his own that he is the most successful official at Ellis Island? Or because he is a wonderful linguist?

The Largest Grocery House in the World Teaching Children Self-Discipline We have a motherhood club in our town which has proved very helpful. To the last meeting, one of the members brought her small son, John Russell. During the afternoon the child became restless and cross. Finally, to cap the climax, he tumbled into tantrum. His mother seemed quite unconcerned. After John Russell had won his point, he ran out-of-doors to play, as serene as the proverbial summer day. He wonderful boy!" his mother said beamingly. "He has so much will-power. He really was cunning, wasn't he? And." bit wittily, "he'll get over the disagreeable part of it. O Yes, don't worry. Grandmother his advice was clear. I remember the moment. I remember one day I took him to the doctor's. He didn't want to go in the first place. The doctor told Joe to open his mouth, he wanted to see his throat. Joe slapped him! Oh, it was successful. My boy now, a most successful business man!" After we left Joe's wife burst forth, "Oh! I get so angry with Joe's mother. I’ve heard hell tell that story gleefully time and time again. I’ve heard him tell that he was plenty of self-expression." I never curbed the child, she boasts. And now the children and I are paying the piper. O, don’t misunderstand me, the children are not the ones to anyone else. But Joe has the terrific temper—absolutely no self-control. Often when he’s helping the children with their lessons he’ll be provoked at some trifle and zip his jacket to the one in front. Dickey in tears. The last time, he yelled at Judith, “You’re dumb. Judit! Just plain dumb. That’s why you don’t know.” I told him I would rather he would never again help me. Joe was never curbed, and his children are suffering in consequence. I’m trying my best at this late date to teach him self-control, but it has meant many years. Why did his mother encourage, yes, actually encourage, those tantrums when he was small? And my little friend’s eyes snapped. I’ve seen “cute” and indicative of a strong mind in a child may become an odd characteristic in an adult. In Water Turn To Stone? There is an old superstition that if a piece of hickory wood is put in water it will turn to stone in seven years. Of course it is not true. No wood ever turns to stone. Even wood which does not turn into stone to stone. Wood merely acts as a mold while minerals from water or the atmosphere are deposited as the wood decays. The length of time required for an object to turn into circumcised stone is a few years or a thousand. Usually it requires a long period. Does The Hippopotamus Sweat Blood? The skin of the hippopotamus, which in some places is two inches thick, contains a large quantity of oily substance which exudes from the pores. When the anatomy is in pain in palm of the hand, it flows, flows more freely, and is tinctured red in color, resembling blood. This is the "bloody sweat" for which the hippopotamus is famous. The color of the oily fluid is not produced by blood. It is the result of a peculiar carmine pigment in the skin which is brought out by the sweak. Eggs For Newspapers WASHINGTON…In the Congo, one cannot buy fresh eggs with money from the natives,” says Mrs. Robert Hill, a trained engineer, who has just returned to the Congo. “Money means nothing to the natives,” continued Mrs. Hill. “for they are traders in the old sense and will harbor only in kind. So our newspapers are double useful, not just for news, but for the natives get them in return for fresh eggs.” The table of egg newspaper exchange seems to run about as follows: Literary Digest, 2 eggs; Ladies Home Journal, 8 eggs; Life, 1 egg; Saturday Evening Post, 3 eggs; New York Times. When Mr. and Mrs. Hill return to the Congo, they will probably carry colored newspapers, after which it is expected that the price of Congo eggs will reach a top market price.

Town Pays Cop 7 BY PALESTINE WELLS So much concerning Barbara that she barely lives in the literatures of the day that it may possibly be interesting by way of contrast to take the reader for a brief trip, away from the little institutions in Md. situated in the northeastern corner of Worcester County, about eight miles from the Atlantic Ocean. Ona pleasant means of approach, the Red Star motor coach, a well appointed conveyance that rolls swiftly and smoothly along the well paved highway. Of course you will see the rear, but you will be better situated to amuse yourself at the evidences of ignorance that are always glaring among these white Americas in worship at the shrine of segregation. Besides the general facial expression that tells its tale, there is starring you in the passengers to return their tickets to the "operator." The business section of Berlin is drab enough. Streets running at various angles and curves, and lined on either side with buildings, run along the usual types of small town business places. But your interest, carries you down the long curve of Bay street, past the limits of the town proper, to Flower Flower Street Flower street, at Bay, is at first glance nothing more than a country lane. But if you walk through it, you will notice the midst of surprisingly, neat cottages, surrounded by well kept lawns. The grass, the flowers, the hedges and the occupant homes take pride in the near appearance of their dwellings. Here is the well screened coltage of "Dave" Passett, the most influential of Berlin. He is a sign painter of no mean ability, employed by the great Harrison Nurseries. Knows Her The Harrison Nurseries, owned by white people, is a 6,000 acre farm devoted to the raising of peach and apple trees. Besides doing the sign painting, and printing, he is a nurseryer, the nurseries. Mr. Passett can step into a lot of 1,000 baby apple or peach trees and tell you at a glance the partier brand of the nursery. He is a school superindentent. He is the strongest factor in local politics. Being leader of the Elks, Mr. Fasset is of course, the author of his order in New York. But not only Mr. Fasset, but nearly every one else, including the Methodist minister, is out of town. Mr. Fasset had gone to Sippeuxon, on the Bay, for a picnic. Not even the three little stores are open. Their owners also, have gone there, in the presence of Mr. Tom M. the largest land owner in Berlin. His sixty acres are divided into several small sections, including one forty acre tract of woodland. Father of 13 Mr. Henry has been the proud father of thirteen children. Three of them are in the school. Another is one of the best known members of the Delaware M. E. Conference. 'one of the most neglected looking neighborhood is the public school. A plain square board structure, it stands, as a witness to the general county school boards of this section toward the education of the children of our group. A glance through the door, up the stairway, reveals huge holes left by falling plaster. Children may go here, through the ninth grade, then pass the museum and the training Princess Anne, or some other boarding school. Next door to the school house is a hall owned by the church meetings, moving pictures are shown here every Friday evening. Pictures Only Amusement The only amusement is the only amusement the town furnishes its young folks. There is no dance hall. Aside from the little pleasure in their dress, there is a museum to Salisbury or other places in search of amusement. There is at present a controversy over the museum's name. Some of the younger spirits are pulling for a hall, but the older folks say "no." Of course, a pool room or wine shop drink is out of the question. Shabby School House In striking contrast to the shabby appearance of the school house, and the neatness of the painted cottages is the rather imposing structure of the school house, with its walls, and ledged glass windows, give testimony to the place that it holds among the people. Except for a canning factory across the railroad greets the observers with the wooden structure in the community. Across the railroad track the same aspect of neatness and prosperity greets the observers with the cement-block wall ornamented with prominent cement balls, separating its well kept yard from the roadway. Where the road crosses the track is the well screened painted house of Mr. C. H. Henry. His glowing pride in his daughter, who is attending summer school is the same as the one of the community in its school children, whom they claim are "So much brighter than the Snow Hill children." Across the railroad tracks, again, strikingly in its little tapered lawn is the house of the widow Molleck. Each home has its yard and garden more; more; nearly everyone owns his own house and lot and car. 15 Cents each Afternoon Materials and the largest land owner is the third citizen, who is said to be the possessor of the largest amount of ready cash.

I believe, however, that it would be much better to establish institutions dealing strictly in first and second mortgage securities, to have shareholders and to the race generally. A general banking business must depend for its support and profit upon a mercantile class, which earns a high rate of return and rows for business better. This is a class to which loans can be made with assurance that the paper will be looked after on date of maturity, and will become more numerous and more prosperous, strict banking institutions will operate at a considerable hazard. This explains to a very certain degree our bank failures in recent years." On the other hand, continued Mr. Clarke, a mortgage company is a necessity and always will be; and if the company is unable to the creation of this type of financial institution which has been put into the creation of banks it will be better for the race. The losses will be reduced to a minimum while the earnings of the banks, based upon identical capitalizations. Mortgage companies always hold ample security for the loans made. Banks deploy the commercial ratings of its clientele, which are not always reliable. NEARLY 500 EMPLOYED NEAR BUENA VISTA BY L. ELROY GRIFIN BUENA VISTA SPIRINGS.

It happened in the Western Police Station and he told it to the magistrate without batting an eye. It wasn't exactly about about cutting down a cherry tree but it was George narrowing his eye. That is the house at 518 Jasper street where this particular George Washington lived just as an officer was entering to arrest him. That chair struck the officer and by the merest chance the officer saw that George Washington had hold of the other end. "Deed your Honor," said George. "I didn't throw that chair." "Just because your name is George Washington, I think I am going to believe that yarn." roared the Judge, "518 and costs." The Terrible William Stewart, 1516 Willem alley, was arraigned in the Criminal Court before Judge O'Dunne, the terribly on who this participation to judge from the still sentences he had already met ed out. "Your honor," began Mrs. Eva Cannon, the prosecuting witness. "I was on the street. Alqusit street when that man came along and snatched a $10 bill from me. "It this true?" demanded Judge O'Dunne glaring at the prisoner. It "No your honor," stammered Stewart, "she gave it to me to get changed for her and before I could get back she ordered my arrest. "Did you ask her money?" the didgeroo asked Mrs. Cannon. "Xes your honor," faltered the woman, "but he stayed away so long that I called an officer and said he had snatched her. Dunnne's eyes narrowed. Courtroom frequenters anticipated one of those terrible decisions of his and it came. "Here, Officer, lock this woman up here. Stewart you are dismissed.

Sept. 24. PROCTOR—In loving remembrance of my dear daughter, Virginia L. L. who 'sparted this life, September 5, 1918. Just a thought of sweet remembrance. Just a memory fond and true; There is not a day dear one, I do not think of you. She left a memory fair and sweet Its fragrance will never die; yet you will not yet complete. For God called her on High. Surrounded by friends I am lonesome In midst of pleasure I am blue; A smile on my face and a heartache For my daughter I am lonesome for you. —By her loving father, WILLIAM E. PROCTOR. You are not forgotten dear sister, Nor ever will you be For as long as life and memory last We will remember thee. —By her brother and sisters, WILLIAM E. MARION AND DUREN BROOK You are resting darling sister. Two sad years have passed away; You are gone but not forgotten As I think of you each day. No one knows my longing No one sees me weep; I shed my tears from an aching heart White others are asleep. I offer all that think of you When I am all alone. For memory is the only thing That grief can call its it own. —By her loving sister, EMMA PROC....TOR. In life I did my best for you. In death I have done the same; Heart of my life is buried deep Under the sod where you are asleep. I have tried. O. so hard in the years I have passed. To silence the cry from my heart till at last. I have found 'twas no use for the arbore will remote. By her loving step-mother, MAMIE E. PROCTOR. WICKS — In memory of my dear father, Joseph Wicks, who died Sept. 5, 1922. A brief year has passed for age. Since the angels came and took fath- And the sad memory of his departure Forever with me remains. His presence will be ever missed When we gather in the home: As I long to meet my father again. Where we will be no more. --By his devoted daughter, MRS. LIZZIE BLAINE, MORRISTOWN, N. J.

The wholesomeness that careful Baltimore housewives and mothers insist upon- Rice's Bread has had both these all-important qualities from the first because Rice's bread was created just to suit Baltimore. A Baltimorean himself, the original Rice had in his very blood an instinct for the tastes and preferences of Baltimore people. With this instinctive knowledge for his guide, he succeeded so perfectly that the Baltimore men couldn't tell his loaf from the bread their wives made at home. Always the same high quality-day in and day out. Fresh twice daily-at your own grocer's-each loaf with the seal and guarantee of the City Baking Institute. BALTIMORE HOUSEWIVES feel that they know Rice's. Thousands of them have seen us making it . . . wondered at the scientific precision with which it is mixed, raised, baked . . . watched with satisfied approval our food scientists testing the ingredients and the finished loaves.
