This was the statement today of Mrs. Helen Taylor, mother of Beatrice Fuller, 18-year-old white society aristocrat and Mayflower descendant, who wed Clarence Kellem, Tuesday. The marriage was to have been performed by Rev. George Brooks, pastor of the Union Congregational Church in Rockville. "I feel it my duty, as a minister of God to marry this couple," Rev. Brooks said. When country-wide excitement increased over the interracial marriage, the couple met in New York. Rev.

She loved with Clarence at first sight," Mrs. Taylor said. "At that time he was employed in the Springfield Mills where he now works." Postponed 4 Months Ago "Four months ago Clarence proposed to her. Beatrice was so young that I urged her. She agreed to do this. She agreed to do this. Now I am convinced that she really loves him. "Beatrice has visited Clarence's house, has known his mother, who is a white woman. She is old enough and wise enough to know what she is doing. I am glad she has chosen a marriage. She is married. Although some of the townpeople expressed strong disapproval of the coming wedding, John Thornbury issued the marriage license, said he felt justified in doing this.

"Willie Chlovetsky" hollered the voice, "and I'm not- "Now, now." the judge quieted him. "Don't get excited. You know you're dead. Don't try to make a fool of the doctor. Doctor knows best." "Well, say-you come up here, Judge." "And be glad to visit with you." "And cry, bring oranges." Investigation proved that it was the body of John Stapleton, who died in an accident which had been sent to the morgue.

There has been so much publicity about their red hot parties, that I have a feeling these boys are going to put the screws down on our car at the ground. Well, it was decided to have a dance on the 21st of this month, and the order of the evening will be B. Y. C. per usual, no dances. The Bachelors came in 21st also, and those wishing to attend both functions may do so with case, because the What-Good-Are We will not be warming up rightly until along about 1 G. The Saps This club is composed of some of our charming, high-powered damsels going on dance on the 22nd of February. No doubt cherry and cherry trees will be the decorations, but George Washington will not be there to ruin them. The Call Of The Wad The affluence of New York has called three of our teachers, who we love, to the school system: Brenda Moryck, Miriam Courtney and Daisy Hamer. The two former young ladies have been assigned to the schools, Brenda who has a decided literary turn of mind, will no doubt join the intelligence group up there, and I am sure she will be over on the Jersey side. Miriam was escorted to New York by her mother and brother, who motored down here from Boston, and finally get adjusted in the big city of New York. Daisy has been busy making preparations for some time to leave these parts, and now she is applying for a Washington-New York commuter's ticket, so that Daisy would not be lonely up there. Well, Lollipop. I hardly think you will be surprised to learn that Henrietta Burwell is moving again, as this seems to be her annual feat. Henrietta is one of our policewomen and she is a Winkle's militant protective organization, but her avocation is moving. She has owned and lived in some of finest houses in Washington, among our group, and last year, after she was fired, she times less in the last ten years, she acquired the palatial house at No. 9 Iowa circle. The house is so immense, that Henrietta divided it up and moved it to the Sobeys, the Hiegibettons, the DeLcoons and the Mellmizers moved in. No doubt this proved to be too much of a crowd for Henrietta—so she proceeded to buy a dear little six-room apartment in the Chinese Legation, and she has only recently unnacked and settled down cozily. BUT, crowd or no crowd, I have just heard that Henrietta is moving back to No. 9 Iowa circle! ... Literature Lovers Professor G. David Houston ad- Mother! Child Gets Sick, Cross, Feverish if Constipated PETER H. WASHINGTON —Dr. Emmett J. Scott, for seven years, director of Howard University, will celebrate 55th birthday next Tuesday. For over 20 years he was secretary to Booker T. Washington at Tuskegee University during the World War as special assistant to the Secretary of War. He dressed the Literature Lovers last Sunday evening at the Phyllis Hall of the University, the fact; that the modern Negro writer is travelling in a groove that is apparently by literature critics and that he does not write. Negro writer should only write about the throbbing, lower passions of the race; and it seems that the Negro writer is travelling along the groove. Negro writer should also sample of this was the poem by Langston Hughes, which goes something like this: "Put on your red stockings, your legs to the white man." And the sequel to these lines is just too torrible to hear that Langston Hughes wrote any more poetry. So be it. In discussing the writings of Paul Lawrence Dunbar, it was shown that whereas he wrote of the lowly Negro, he never descended to the common people. He brought out that Dunbar was a poet, and happened to be a Negro. There was a lively discussion and the group is anxiously looking forward to the next meeting. March 4th, when Rosa Nixon will hold forth on April 1st, and this will be no April Fool meeting. Alice Dunbar Nelson—quite the most outstanding literary woman of our group—has been invited to attend the Lovers, and I just know there will be standing room only. The Krigwa This little theatre movement is an off-shot of the Literature Lovers. As you know, they present their plays Saturday evening at the Cleveland School. Luncheon For Mary White Owinton Several literary groups—The Womens Bureau, the College Women's Federation the Research Club, members of the hustlerian coined by Rienzi Lemus —are planning a luncheon in honour of the illustrious Mary White Owinton, a woman of the century. This should prove to be an interesting get-to-gether, and while the guests linger over the tea cups, Miss Owinton will give literary talk. Visit: Dr. Chester Ames of Detroit, Mich —good looking, single and deborn— arrived in the city Sunday. Dr. Arthur Curtis entertained some of his visiting doctor. Tuesday evening, Wouldn't it be wonderful if Washington possessed just the right, sweet lassie for this Prince Charming to and now, my dear Lollipop, I have broadcast quite enough for one week, so will sign off—and then to bed.

See if tongue is coated; this is a sure sign the little stomach, liver and bowel needs cleaning. When illness, breath bad, throat soot, doesn't eat, sleep, or act naturally, has stomach-ache, diarrhoea, remember, a gentle liver and bowel cleaning should always be the first thing you do. Nothing equals "California Fig Syrup" for children's ill; give a teaspoonful, and in a few hours all the foul waste, sour bile and fermenting food which is clogged the bowels passes a well and playful child again. All children love this harmless, delicious, "fruity laxative," and it never fails to effect a good "inside cleansing." For babies or children all age and down-ups are plainly on the bottle. Keep it handy in your home. A little given today saves a sick child Md Washington Page OMES TRU SOCIETY Late 1108-TW MRS.

Shreve, while, in raining on the rate on lots here and gross injustice and an effort to keep colored property owners out of the county, promoters of Eagle Harbor water front development have gone into court to have these rates reduced. According to E. S. Hine, tax rates on lots which sold for $20 to $100 were raided to $300 on orders given by the tax assessor. The original assessment on the lots when bought by the present company was $20 each. Discrimination Owners of lots in the development declare that the Prince George's tax assessment these lots and that the high assessment is imposed for the purpose of discouraging buyers and if possible driving owners out of the county. Harbor Harbor is 30 miles from Washington and more than 150 of the lots have been sold to people in Washington, Baltimore and other nearby Maryland towns. Notice notices reached owners, it is said, one day after the expiration of time in which appeals from the 1927 tax rate assessment could be made. To the fact that Carmody Hills, a white development in which lots are selling from $200 to $300 each, are assessed for only $15 while lots in this colored development just two miles off are assessed at $300.

Ala.—A. M. E. bishops who meet in semi-annual session here February 14th-17th have borrowed the Sixth Avenue Baptist Church for their meetings. Originally St. Johns A. M. E. Church was thought of as the place of meeting. Building work started five years ago, migration and poor management prevented completion of more than one story. Critics of Bishop W. A. Fountain who is host to the conference, say this is the first time the denomination has met outside of its own church building. Proponents say it will prove an experiment in the interfaith dialogue.

Stewart "All church members and sinners who have been converted are not saved." the Rev. C. E. Stewart declared in the sermon at Trinity A.M. E. Church, Sunday morning. Dr. Stewart referred to the second chapter of the Acts of the Apostles where as the result of the peraching of the followers of Jesus 3.000 were baptized. Then he quoted the 47th verse of that chapter which in part reads: And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved, as an evidence of the fact that God's church is a separate institution drawn from members of the church here below who lead Christian lives. "If you are able to know God's voice, receive His blessings through meditation, and receive an answer to your prayers." Dr. Stewart said "you can be assured that you hold membership in God's church." Total number of Trinity converts this year are put to 73. Zion Needs Bishops WASHINGTON. D. C.-Pastor H. T. Medford, pastor of John Wesley M. A. E.

CHRISTIANITY ONLY COMPLETE RELIGION Christ's Teachings Only Ones That Answer All The Yearning Of Human Heart OWN WORSE ENEMY Abstracting Self From Fellowman Unnatural "Jesus Christ brought the only religion that answers all the yearnings in the human heart," day pastor of the Madison Street Presbyterian Church, Sunday. None of the beliefs and practices of the various sects of that day so completely answered the dormant emotions of man as did the doctrine of the stance ritualists and believed in ceremonies and form. Empty form is as insufficient answering of these yearnings as painting the picture of a living a cold man to warm himself by it. The Sadducees were the skeptics of that day and denied the existence of the supernatural. Denying God does not satisfy a thirsty heart, the God man that his hungering heart imagines does not make him any more comfortable. The human heart, knows nothing about spiritual satisfaction and telling a person that there is no God and no hereafter does not abate his feeling. Abstraction, as advised by God, is unnatural but is a sign of cowardice. Man is by nature a social being and to separate himself from his fellow-creators, God leaves many things wanting. Try like he might a man cannot get away from himself, and everybody is more choicen. The religion associated by Christ is liberal and broad, and furnishes an outlet for all the pent up religious emotions. answers the questioning of the heart and satisfies the spiritual appetite, he declared. DR. WILLIAMS REPLIES TO MISS BURROUGHS CHICAGO. (A. N. P.)—The National Baptist Convention founded the National Training School on behalf of the Burchs, and is seeking to have it controlled by the Women's Auxiliary Convention, Dr. L. K. Williams announced this week. The article signed by Miss Burroughs which appeared in this paper recently. Accruing to Dr. Williams, the Women's Auxiliary Convention auctioned the school, incorporated it and paid the $7,000 with which to purchase land. The National Baptist Convention, Mr. Williams said, is not asking women to buy the school, it is insisting that the trustees of the National Training School permit the Women's Auxiliary to nominate the trustee board instead of the women self-perpetuated board as present. In 1915, he said, when the Boyd Publishing Company split from the Convention, the organization began an investigation of the charters of all of its subsidiary bodies and found the National Training School was more remote from the control of the Women's Achievement Convention than was the Boyd Publishing Board from the National Baptist Convention and since that time has been taking steps to remedy this condition.

It says among other things, "Over 20 years there was gradually being formed a coalition of some of the ministers of the A. M. E. church. A more detailed account of the religious and political policy of the churches in Chicago and vicinity, (which is not without compensation); also advising the bishop of ministers to certain ministers to certain churches. "Some of their methods were so reprehensible and arbitrary that other ministers and laymen became accustomed under the limitations of their rights. "Dr. W. D. Cook, the pastor of Bethel Church, with a deep sense of ministerial ethics, was not in harbor of this combination of ministers and for this reason he and his church became the focal point of severe criticism. The congregation petitioned it to return. Their request was disapproved, and the disappointment of the church that many of the officers resigned and they were followed by several hundreds of the members. The twenty-four members, Dr. Cook considered opposition to become pastor of a new church. Eventually the people's Community Church of Christ's Metropolitan Community Center, Non-sectarian, Broadly Huttonized, All the People's was established. The new church is at the corner of 41st and South Parkway, a handsome stone structure with a community center adjoining a church, auxiliaries, each one symbolizing some phase of the community life.

CHURCHES PLAN TO LIMIT BISHOPS CHURCHES PLAN TO LIMIT BISHOPS M. E.'s Discuss Election For Term Of Years And Return To Pastorate ALLIANCE HIT A. M. E.'s Vote To Cooperate Until Lunch Time The next General Conference of the M. E. Church will discuss changes in the methods of election of bishops and appointment of superintendents, Dr. Ernest Lyon told the M. E. Preachers' Meeting at Bethel Church, Monday. The A. M. E. Church in its General Conference will discuss the question of removing the time limit on pastors, requiring rotation of bishops and their residence in their Episcopal district, and the equal representation of clergy and laymen as delegates. This satisfaction over the present method of appointing district superintendents in the M. E. Churches is current. Dr. Lyons said, "These men are nominated by their friends and the appointment takes place in a corner. The result would be elected that would not get a 'smell' if they were properly voted upon." Dr. Lyon's method of election would be for the annual conference to conference the bishop's appointments or for the annual conference to elect outright. **Pastors At Fault** "The world is denominatively mad and anachronistic." The greatest obstacle to Christian progress is not the sinner, but the preacher who does not care anybody succeeding except himself. The stir created by Dr. Lyon's ministry came aside for Friday morning, February 16th at 1 o'clock for a full discussion of all church problems. The meeting will be open to members and laymen of all churches, and will be held at Bethel Church. Committee Named A committee consisting of the Rev G. H. Stephan, the Rev. D. L. Mille, the Rev. E.

Wednesday at 1:20 p.m. By motion of Dr. G. E. Stewart, the committee was instructed to withdraw from the Alliance gathering of the question of a lunchmeet was discussed. Dr. Stewart explained that colored members of the city are not members of the Alliance gathering, and have been unable to see their way clear to hold their luncheons together with the colored brethren. "I am willing that we go and discontinue the opening of moving pictures on Sunday," Dr. Stewart declared, "but when the question of lunchmeets up I want it to be our brethren withdraw rather than the whites." Upon the question of Dr. Stephan as to whether this was a Christian meeting, Dr. Stewart said that the only thing to do was to fight fire with fire. M. E. Bishops In Session CHICAGO—Bishop R. E.

INNOCENT BOY, FEARING JAIL, BELIEVED TO BE A SUICIDE Saturday, Feb. 11, 1928 INNOCE DRIFTS 700 MILES IN PALM BEACH SUIT James Bethel Caught In Florida Gulf Stream Lands In New York MOTOR WAS DISABLED Besides Jim Knew Nothing About Machinery NEW YORK CITY,—James Bethel, a 26-year-old native of Palm Beach, Fla., was brought to Ellis Island by the steamer Pinar-del-Rio, of the American-Cuban Steamship Life, which picked him up off Cape Hatters drifting in a twenty-four foot motor boat. For ten days he had been slowly floating in the gentle Gulf Stream up from Palm Beach, a distance of 700 miles. Jim was later sent to the Salvation Army Stetler, 229 East 127th street, where arrangements were completed to send him back home. The rescued man had only one specification to make and that was he be sent raft. It appears that Bethel accepted the offer of the owner of the boat to pay him 55 if he would run the craft from Palm Beach to Hollywood, Fla. a distance of about 45 to 50 miles. This looks good for he wife of the owner, a large jig of water, and a large of sardines and cracked seafood that all he had to do as to sit pretty, eat plentifully and let the engine do the rest. But Jim knew nothing about machinery and much to his dismay, shortly after he got out, the engine sputtered and suddenly ceased "to hit." The trapped man sat back and bent. That was all he could do. But his hopes were in vain for an short breeze swept him gently into the grip of the Gulf Stream and his unwilling travels began in earnest. He tried to rip up a sail but the breeze blew the direction and swept him more severely into the grasp of the boat to be taken down the sail. To add to his discomfort two or three sharks ominously followed in the wake of his craft. For five days and nights the marooned man's supply of crackers and water lasted. The remaining five days were without supplies. He had water with canes of sand and two tubes of tomato sauce of crackers, and four gallons of water. At 6 a.m. in the morning, 10 days after he had left shore at the Florida coast, the Pimar-del-Rio almost dim in the pre-dawn gloom before the look-out sighted his lantern. The ship stopped and picked him up and brought him to a palm Beach hotel, he did not find the weather much to his liking. But "All's Well That Ends Well" and the sharks did not get Bethel after all.

Associates of Brunder, who were sentenced to ninety days, are as follows: Nathaniel Joseph, Joseph Joshua, Joseph William Jones, Charles Clark, Joseph Isaac and Frederick Frazier. $4,000 Per Day Police and detectives testified that the profits from the game he conducted in a house house at 2400 and $4,000 per day. When it was learned that they met in the tenement house at 2400 Seventh avenue, they were surprised by a great surprise over their setting around a table counting the receipts turned in for the day. Brunder's influence in the community can be judged by the fact that a large number of prom-residents of Hutton both white and colored, sought elementy for him.

If you clear up the condition with some laxative made with CASCARA, there is nothing better for the system—for the blood. But if you don't KNOW the laxative you have learned to depend on is of harmless cascara, here's some truly valuable advice: The bark of a tree called cascara is the most marvelous conditioner made for hair. It multiplies the bowel's muscular action, but does NOT weaken. A violent laxative forms the laxative HABIT. You always need more on the morrow. With cascara, you don't. Its gentle laxative certifies on some times for days. With less and less need for any aid, as time goes on. So, the very next time you feel CASCARETS They Work While You Sleep! Smoc If you are a victim of displeasing skin blemishes, ask your druggist for BLACK AND WHITE Ointment and Skin Soap and use them according to directions. Then you, too, may possess the appealing charm of a clear, smooth skin. For best results be sure and use the complete treatment BLACK AND WHITE Ointment and Skin Soap.

JUMPED BAIL TO JUMP OFF BRIDGE Jesse Colman's Letter Tells Brother Not To Look For Him Any More ACCUSED OF ASSAULT Promises Leniency BROOKLYN, N. Y—Jesse Colman, 965 De Kalb avenue, out on $1,000 bail, failed to put in his appearance before King's College Wake-up sentence on a charge of third degree assault to which he had pleaded guilty, but his lawyer, Jacob J. Schwirlzand handed the judge a letter in the missing man's handwriting which read as follows: Mary Colman Dear Brother;—Jes a few lines to let you from me from me am accused of a crime that I was not guilty an I am worried to death about it avery where I go i can see oow like I could be satisfied at all listen Ernest don't worry about me i am going to the Williamsburg bridge and i am going to jump off into the water and drown and if you all want to see my face again you can search for my body so take my body home i want to be buried by my mother i want to hard to give you all but they will be taken to father sister, and brothers. JESSE COLMAN. Suicide Theory Judge Vause read the letter and said, "I hope he hasn't committed suicide. If he wrote it in the spirit of sincerity it is the strongest plea of sincerity to me. If he is alive and will come to see me, he will find out that his lot is not so hard as he seems to imagine." The judge further said that if the missing man did not appear within a day or two, he would have a search made for him. Colman Frightened Many people in man became frightened when in court last time as he sat and heard one man sent to jail for from 15 to 30, believing that some such sentence awaited him. Colman had been accused of assaulting thirteen-year-old Catherine Killip 255 and pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor and would probably have drawn a sentence of about 3 months.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER July 11, 1910. There is plenty of newspaper discussion going on as a result of Mr. Booker T. Washington, part owner of the New York Age. L. M. Hershaw says that Mr. Washington is a part owner and in his issue of the "Horizon" recently, quoted the following extracts from a letter by T. Thomas Fortune to the "Indianapolis Free Press" of July, "When I sold my 1,250 shares of stock to Fred Moore last September, and took his paper in payment for most of it Jerome B. Peterson owned 1,250 and Booker T. Washington owned 850 shares, and I sold the shares being of the par value of $10. A few shares of the total capitalization were held by other parties, mostly friends of Mr. Washington. The Age, in a way of replying, characterized Mr. Hershaw as a "sultile lie" and added that Mr. Washington is not now a stockholder and the "Age" is not his "personal organ." There is plenty of newspaper discussion going on as to whether or not Mr. Booker T. Washington is a part owner of the New York A. M. Itaume says that Mr. Washington is a part owner and in his issue of the "Horizon", recently, quoted the following extracts from a letter by T. Thomas Fortune to the "Indianapolis Freeman" in the fall of 1999. I am 1.250 shares of stock to Fred Moore last September, and took his paper in payment for most of it Jerome B. Peterson owned 1.250 and Booker T. Washington owned 950 shares. Emma Itaume wrote a record of the shares being of the par value of $10. A few shares of the total capitulation were held by other parties, mostly friends of Mr. Washington. The Age is by way of replying, characterized Mr. Hershey's letter as a "seattle lie" and added that Mr. Washington is not now a stockholder and the "Age" is not his "personal organ." Herskovitz Error Prof. Melville Herskovitz, a white professor in Northwestern University, has just written a new book, "The New Negro," a study in racial crossing—published by Alfred Knopf, N. I. Y. Prof. Herskovitz measured the nostrils, legs and legs of a number of colored folk and concluded that America has produced a new race in between the wide nostrilled African and narrow nosed white man. Not satisfied here, he ventured to predict that the American Negro will not be absorbed by the white race but will become a stabilized type and continue as a distinct brown-skinned part of the community. Prof. Herskovitz may know his anthropology, but he does not know his countries. It is forcing Negroes to straighten curly heads. Eventually Poro, Mme. Walker, Plough, Kohinoor and other companies will find a way to whiten their skins as well. When that day comes, good-bye to Prof. Herskovitz's measurements of lips, nostrils and legs. Every year we go into the white race that is, "pass for white" by the hundreds. A mother will "pass" by the thousands.

Another generation will "pass" by the thousands. Why He Doesn't Choose President Coolidge speaking at the dedication of the National Press Club, white, in Washington Saturday night, said that the newspaper should be PATRIOTIC (pronounce A as in PAT). Later in two other instances the president used the same word, pronouncing the A as in HAY. President reminded the press also that in its exposure of crime, it should not forget virtue. He followed his own advice by referring to the United States as a land of "equal opportunity in general" altho next to the White House is a U. S. Navy building in which there is not a single colored officer. Perhaps the "in general" was intended by the President to cover this mental reservation. Mr. Coolidge paid his respects to what he called the president reverence for humanity characterizing U. S. public policy. Surely he was not thinking of Haiti or Nicaragua then. Taking Mr. Coolidge's address at the press club as example of the President at his best it can be seen why he refuses to permit newspaper men to question him directly after his mid-week conferences. Supreme court trying for him to have slipped into called Secretary Hoover President Hoover last week. The week before, he spoke sharply to Mrs Coolidge before photographers and, when she immediately left the room, padded out after her crying "Oh Ma." After seven years of this, is there any wonder Mr. Coolidge does not choose to run for relection. President Coolidge, speaking at the dedication of the National Press Club, white, in Washington, Saturday night, said that the newspapers should be PATRIOTIC (pronounce, PAT). Later in two other instances the president used the same word, pronouncing the A as in HAY. The President reminded the press also that in its exposure of crime, it should not forget virtue. He followed his own advice by referring to the United States as a land of "equal opportunity in general" allied to the White House and willing in which there is not a single colored officer. Perhaps the "in general" was intended by the President to cover this mental reservation. Mr. Coolidge paid his respects to what he called the profound reverence for humanity characterizing U. S. public policy. Surely he was not thinking of Nicaragua than taking Mr. Coolidge's address at the press club as example of the President at his best, it can be seen why he refuses to permit newspaper men to question him directly after his mid-week conferences. It must have been trying for him to have slipped up the Secretary Hoover President last week. The week before, he spoke sharply to Mrs. Coolidge before photographers and, when she immediately left the room, paddled out after her crying "Oh Ma." After seven years of this, is there any wonder Mr. Coolidge does not choose to run for reelection. No Blue Gray Reunion Representative Edgar Howard. (Dem., Neb.) has introduced a bill Number 5577 in the House of Representatives asking for the appointment of a commission consisting of the general of the United States Army and the governors of the several states of the United States of the Blue and the Gray Civil War veterans. Representative Howard quotes reports of the commissioner that there are living today 84,478 men who served in the Union army. Considering that possibly the same number survive on the Confederate side, he estimates that only about 10,000 of the old Blue and Gray armies are today active enough to attend such a reunion. Pension figures indicate that 50,000 out of the 80,000 Union soldiers are now physically incapacitated, requiring constant aid and attention from other persons to care for them. G. A. R. influence in Congress has always prevented federal pensions for Confederate veterans. Offers of the Confederates to hold their annual reunion with the Grand Army of the Republic have always been turned down. The APO-AMERICAION there is sufficient influence that there is government funds from being spent on any Blue and Gray reunion as suggested by Representative Howard, despite the 'fine sentiment which motivates the Nebraska legislator. If the government has funds to spend or old soldiers it would seem reasonable that this amount go toward increased pensions rather than toward the celebration of any kind which can benefit only about 5,000 out of the 84,400 men who fought to save the Union.

If the government has funds to spend on old soldiers it would seem reasonable that this amount go toward increased pension rates toward the future. It is likely about 5,000 out of the 84,000 men who fought to save the Union. Watch Your Step Ninety-thousand persons in the U.

The situation occupies a large tracé of time itself with buildings that have housed ancient Rebels and newer fresher buildings, their physical and spiritual descendants. Every house, store, garage et al in the vicinity bears on the surface “University”. The town of sixteen thousand souls revolves and the school stands still, so the school is the larger. State Universities For a brief moment contrasting this university with the “Negro school” down at Petersburg is interesting. A beautiful Greek-styled gymnasium building, reflecting itself in an artificial lake stands at the one place, where a barn, which throws its shadow over harvested corn, stands on the other. At the one a new million dollar medical building is being prepared for, at the other the hope At the one are future governors, senators, presidents; at the other are future resuscitated patients. The latter are held al. Until indemnation takes hold of the sightseeer he finds interest in contrasting the two Virginias which Swanson and Glass are now preparing for the future, and they think for Many Own Homes But good comes from the worst evil. Hence, the hundreds of homes in Charleston that Negroes in Charlestonville own the most of the homes they live in. I see enough homes, you can bring honorable rewards. You can bring honorable rewards. But good comes from the worst evil. Hence the hundreds of Negro owned homes earned a lowly servants. Negroes in Charlestonville over the past decade have done their alone fully to convince me that the humble work can bring honorable rewards. Besides the majority who work in "service there are openings which the imagination can easily supply. The best work for a breakman Charlestonville is sort of a railroad center (main lines of the Southern and C. and O.). Varying estimates of the Negro population are given by Dr. G. R. Ferguson, G. F. Johnson, H. G. Chissell say that they "keep busy." Of the two dentists, Dr. J. A. Jackson divides his work between Lynchburg and Charlestonville, and B. A.

Jim Crow Hospital Ward The University of North Carolina Hospital affords separate accommodations for the Negro sick, happens, that Negro physicians see their patients only as law visitors. This driving Negro doctors the privilege of practice "white" hospitals is easy a more of a job than it is for men here put it, after reaching a certain point the men no expect to go any farther the whole of their lives." So there is another side to the young Negro physician to leave Washington and other hospital centers. Another handicap the forced isolation which the three Negro physicians suffer in Charlestonville. "Medical Association" in this region of outlawry means, "whites only." NO profession is an exception. Besides the majority who work in "in service" there are openings which the imagination can easily supply. Mr. K. A. Jackson, a railroad center (main lines of the Southern and C. and O.) and Varying estimates of the Negro population are about six to six thousand. The three physician—Dr. G. R. Perguson, G. F.

A corporation drug store employs the services of one pharmacist, Dr. M. W. Watts. Undertaker Bell has practically a monopoly on burying the dead in New Hospital Ward The University of Virginia Hospital affords separate accommodations for the Negro sick. It happens, however, that Negro physicians can see their patients only in the private privilege of practice in "white" hospitals is easily a most primitive use of brute force. As one of the men here puts it, "after reaching a certain point the men need no expect to go any farther the whole of their So there is another side to the young Negro physician's reluctance to leave Washington and return to the South. He is forced isolation which the three Negro physicians suffer in Charlottesville. "Medical Association" in this region of outlawry means, "for whites only". NO profession is an exception. Two-Year High School The popular young Governor Byrd with the assistance of the ambitious, fire-spitting governor from Maryland and similar company conducted last summer at Charlottesville a conference on national problems. The town's educational scheme for children remains untouched; the school has been solved. The popular young Governor Byrd with assistance of the ambitious, fire-sitting governor from Maryland and similar company co-operators, gave her first public conference on national problems. The town's educational scheme for Negroes remains untouched that problem has been solved, building, construct less than three years ago, is used now to canvass with an incomplete two-year high school course, no library room nor laboratory, large kitchen and dime womens bed the department; she does it as they usen to虐待 children must leave their good home for a city high school or some boarding school because Swanson and Glass are left alone with the problems in a province that ruled by prejudice.

She was helping the puns create for themselves anew the characters "The Merchant of Venice". No one knows who would happen if Negroes had a chance at Chancellor The new "high school" building, constructed less than three years ago, is used now to cancello with an incomplete two-year high school course, no library room nor main room, large room for a new old time woman to the department; she does it as they used to. Neo children must leave their good homes for a city high school or some boarding school, because Swanson and Glass are left alone to rule by prejudice. That there are good teachers in Charlottesville "Nero high school." I think especially of the first high English teacher, Mrs. Elsie Heiski. She was helping the pimps to create for themselves anew the character "The Merchant of Venice." No one knew what would happen if Negroes had a chance at Charlottesville. Beautiful Churches People in Charlottesville go to church-of-course, there are none too few of these institutions. One of the wholesome contributions of the old past is the architecture of two of churches First Baptist (Rev. H. E. Williams, pastor) and the M. Zion Baptist (rev. S. A.

Williams, pator) and the M. Zion Baptist (Rev. S. A. Thur- pastor). There are churches—the adjuators are reman- able for their natural beauty and shifful atmosphere. It is a pity that build- committees so seldom have the native charac- ties and needs of men's spirits in mind, in our day of progress, in church work. Poll Taxes. Of course, Nuremberg at Charlestonville are co on civic questions. They will not pay their pax; they will not warm up on political issues. Maybe if laws are enacted with Newer and for public offices, it would be diffe- nt. The lawless city has at least some to point of having two Negro Election Judges, but of whom are intelligent and have financial ba- cern, and Charles Coles, Jr., is a successful co- tractor. S2 A Year For Socializing All in the North For socializing, just another on southern town. Most people know ear other by first names. The same persons are every activity. Social life is natural (democ- ratic and inexpensive) a professional man said to him the fifteen dollars socializing, and that he had a good time." Where whites and color count the same neighborhood the streets a lents are at least fairly sedentate, and wrovers live to themselves the city forgets duty. When Virginia becomes civilized the small town will be the place for who seek to it as nature originally intended. Another "Grandfather Clauses" WASHINGTON—"What we could never un- stand," says George Rotherwell Brown, pian- grapher for the Washington Post. Is why a So- thern state need a legislative enactment, but a Nor- thern state can't nullify the Eighteenth." To the "grandfather clause" mili- fication acts used so extensively and effec- tively throughout the country, Mr. Brown the brilliant idea that "What New York needs is a law providing that a man can buy a drink today if his grandfather can." ABRAHAM LINCOLN BY JOHN H. APEL Fate called this man of destiny To face a world of hate. To face a world of sea. The storm tossed Ship of State. The days were dark, the sea was wild. The storm stripped the mast. He heavily condemned, resisted. To reach the port at last. The darkest hours passed away. To face a world of hate. He saw the dawning of the day. He steered toward the goal. The storm abated, calmed the sea. Smiled on this land of liberty. These churches—the adultornisms are remarkable for their natural simple beauty and wonderful atmosphere. Nobody have the native character and needs of men's spirits in mind, in our day of progress, in church building. Poll Taxes Of course, Northwestern is cold on civic taxes. They will not pay their poll tax; they will not warm up on political issues. Maybe if law and order prevailed, with Nerrous competing for public offices, it will be easier to keep them warm to the point of having Nerro Electron Judges, both of whom are intelligent and have financial backing. G. B. Ince operates a going concern, and Charles Cole Jr., is a successful contractor. $3 A Year For Socialising All in all Charlestonites is just another unpleasant occasion, but know each by first names. The same persons are in every activity. Social life is natural (democratic and inexpensive): a professional man said to me that, in almost five years, he has been able to have "had a good time". Where whites and colored occupy the same neighborhood the streets and lights are at least fairly admirable, but out where Nerrous live to themselves the city forgets its When Virginia becomes civilized the small town of Cedar Rapids, where who seek to live in nature originally intended. WASHINGTON—"What we could never understand," says George Rothwell Brown, paragrapher for the Washington Post, who emphasizes the Fifteenth amendment by legislative enactment; and a Northern state can't nullify the Eighteenth. Referring to the "grandfather clause" nullification acts used so extensively throughout the country recently, Mr. Brown suggests the brilliant idea that "What New York needs is a law providing that a man can buy a drink today if his grandfather could." and A righteous cause had won. The ship of State in majesty, The page wife was proud, justified, The hero stood triumphantly, The right at last prevailed. The foresight were not fought in vain On land or on the sea: United were the States again, The former laws were free, Most righteous cause beneath the sun, The cause for which he stood, For which the martyrs fought and won And sealed with his own blood. -St. LOUIS, Mo.

To the Editor: I read with a great deal of interest your column based on my experience. I wonder what that what you have will do a great deal of good. We cannot discuss matters of education alone. We must have a great deal of education along these lines. I read with a great deal of interest your column based on my Southern artisan' art book, *The Art of the Artist*. I do a great deal of good. We cannot discuss matters of this sort sufficiently because then is so much need of education along these lines, which they have. Life insurance is too precious a thing for anybody to ever turn loose. I would prefer that they hold on to all that they have, and that patronize the colored companies to the same extent that they have patronized this particular white company. If this were true the economy would be much better, and it would plenty different from what it is now. When ever the combined resources of our Negro life insurance companies aggregate the resources of the white company which it has in force on its books—the Negro will begin to see how much power such wealth really gives to a group. It can be done and we must continue to hammer it home until it I do not want anybody to drop any insurance which they have. Life insurance is too precious a thing for anybody to ever turn it over. I will tell that they have got, but, in the future in taking more that they patronize the colored companies to the same extent that they have patronized this particular white company. If they have patronized this particular Negro in America, would be completely different from what it is now. Whenever the combined resources of our Negro life insurance companies aggregate the resources of all Negro companies, which it has in force on its books—the Negro will begin to see how much power such wealth really gives to a group. It can be done and we must continue to hammer it home until it is For Many Years Yet We Must Do The Laboring Work in The World. Children Must Be Taught, Grown and And To Enjoy It. To the Editor: How many parents and teachers have ever talked seriously with their children as to what they shall choose for their life's work: American Negroes, real work, their frames, and courage in their hearts. They found pride in their labor in the number of acres of land tilled and a man was measured by the amount of home work he could do.

American Neuroscience provides work videos for children, their frames, and courteu in their hearts. They found pride in their labor in the number of acres of land tilled and a man was measured. But today no advice is given our children neither spiritually or mentally and it is the one great cause for the alleged unrest and failure in moral and spiritual purpose for their lives.

If You Don't Like The Way School Works, Work. Get Out. To the Editor. In answer to Maybell Chew's article in last week's AFRO, I would tell her I tell everyone else how to work. If you don't like the way the school system makes you work, get out. There isn't no law against quitting. If you make would make you think the job was the hardest on earth, that is if you were fool enough to believe them. We poor devil down here at the AFRO work on an average of 51 hours for 51 weeks (the editor longer) and an average of 5 hours, 5 days a week. And an average of only 183 days out of 365. They squawk about studying at summer school, they squawk because they squawk when out of town trained people can in and get the jobs they are too lazy to try. They are a disgruntled lot not being able to agree among themselves and work together. They are constantly studying and trying to prove themselves. They don't squawk because they have to work long hours. In comparison they don't squawk because they have supervision they have only robbing some other poor deed. My advice to teachers like you is to work harder and longer, give the best that is in you and if the conditions do not suit you, "get out of the job." They are the only robbing some other poor deed. Another thing, if you teachers must smoke, chew, and drink, for goodness sake have no responder to the question. If you have no responder to the question, they will as the expression goes, "if you down in company." This article is only for the teachers who have the same point of view as Mrs. Chew.

To the Editor: I have been reading, with much interest, the Biblical contradictions by Mr. J. C. Blair. I have read them and have learned the weather, politics or anything else so long as he muffles his wails of contradiction, contradiction and other more key business combined with Ingersoll's accusations and Thomas Paine's assumptions which were all contrary to the Bible are but rubbish either. The Bible is the most important book, therefore we must admit, whether right or wrong, the Bible is the greatest book known. Its writers were many and most of them wrote under different circumstances which account for almost constant egistic aspirations to asthetic fame are harping on "What the Bible is and what the Bible is not." The Bible speaks its truth in the most vivid marry. If the Bible is not what it is thought to be, if religion is not what it ought to be, we are certain that Christianity has been vital in present times. When the conceptions of the masses have drifted from a hereafter, when they can't coerce a higher intelligence than mortal man, true religion will blast here on earth. May that day never come. GEORGE THEODORE JOHNSON, Biblical Contradictions Are Enough To Perplex A Petrified Martyr. To The Editor:--- I have been reading, with much interest, the Biblical contradictions by Mr. J. C Blair, am of the opinion, writing about use time with the writing, about the weather, politics or anything else so long as he muffled his wails of contradiction. Darwin's books on evolution and other monkey business combined with Ingersoll's accusations and Thomas Palmer's suspicion. Darwin will be but rubbish either in comparison or contrast with the latter. Therefore we must admit, whether right or wrong, the Bible is the greatest book known, with almost no exceptions. Under different circumstances which accounts for the so-called contradictions. Almost constantly egisticic aspirants to atheistic fame are harping on the Bible is less likely to be. Literally speaking it's enough to perplex a petrified mariner. If the Bible is not what it is thought to be, if religion is not what it ought to be, we certainly humanity has been vital in present civilization. The conceptions of the masses have drifted from a hereafter, when they can't conceive a higher intelligence than mortal man, a higher intelligence than blast on earth. May that day never come. H. F.

Should you perchance some crime committ, And wish to get rid of it. Why should you arrest submit? Why should you Negro did it. And should your neighbor trample your corn, Or snatch your lip and split it. Just change your garb and pop your gun, And say a Negro did it. Should some blonde flapper steal your spouse? Why negro and feet and crow? Just black your face, shoot up her house, Then blame some poor Negro. Why should you die for your own wrong, Why grace the electric skillet? Just sting around age-old song Negro did it. Or should before some stern-faced judge Ydread me, let me face the testimony budge. But page some black man near. "May it please the court, and gentlemen, I beg your contemplation. My skin could not such crime contain, He must misunderstand. Dementia Praecox, I now plead, Brain storms and observations, A Habes Corpus Writ I need For such hallucinations. But that black man, O let him die, At the edge of the house. Just let him swing eighteen feet high, Or fill the electric chair. Man is unjust, but God is just, And justice shall prevail. Mary needs a rusty weapon rust, Even the heavens fail. The mills of God grind slow a pace, Without a doubt or quit it. He surely can His face And say a Negro did it.

John Hardy John Hardy, whose story is told in the first song, should not be confused with John Henry, an entirely different man who belongs to a different period. Hardy was a desirada. Henry a good-natured, almost lovable "steel-driving" man. "Often the songs are somewhat confused by the sinner. In the present case, for example, the first verso really belongs with the Henry story, not with Hardy. Notice the true folk form and the remarkable ballad technique. I give the song without change as it came to me from West Virginia. When little John Hardy was four years old. He climbed on his mamma's knee. And said, "The Big Bend Tunnel on the B. & O. road Is bound to be the death of me! Lord. Lord! is bound to be the death of me!" John grew into a man, a desprate man. An six of them he ran: He ran till he came to the river bank. Then he fell on his bosom and he swam. An' thought he was out of the way: Up stepped a policeman an' took him by the arm. Said, "John Hardy, come an' go along with me!" Lord, Lord! "John Hardy, come an' walk along with me!" John Hardy had a levin' little wife, An' she was dressed in blue; She was hangin' around John Hardy's neck Sayin', "John Hardy, I've been true to you!" "loud," Lord! "John," Hardy, I've been true to you! John has travelled in the East, he's traveled in the West, An' he has travelled the whole world sound. He has been to the river, an' he's been baptized. An' he's standin' on his hangin' ground Lord. He's standin' on his hangin' ground He's standin' on his hangin' grounds South Eats Cake And Has It Too Let us admit, first of all, that the Negro is abysmally ignorant, woefully improvident, thoroughly uneducated, insufficiently inferior, and possessed of any other failing defect, and vice that the most skillful ingenuity can devise. Let us, on the other hand, admit that his is deprived of the right to vote, and that he is deprived of the right to deprived of this right. Let us assume that all this is for the good of the superior" civilization. Having admitted all this, I submit this question. Is it not true that you are violating the fourteenth amendment in that you continue to elect representatives to Congress and to name presidential candidates, that you are not deprived of the right to vote? I should like for some constitutional lawyer to reconcile these two facts. It seems to me that this is one of the rare instances in which it is possible to eat one's cake and to have it, too. Youth 22, Unkissed Freed First Time In His Parents' Long Search For "Lost Baby" Ends After 16 Years When They Find Him Inside State Prison Haitians Boycotted Lindbergh As Wall St. Traveling Salesman DAYBYDAY DAYBYDAY BY WILLIAM N. JONES History Week Is Changing Youth Ideals You may not agree with this writer that the yearly observance of Negro History Week and the progress of the civil war what the group has meant to the progress of the world throughout the ages has been the greatest sim- plest progress during the last five years, but you will hope that not one young man woman failed of being reached this year. F or the one outstanding mark of racial progress during the last few years has been the growing their own achievement and to properly evaluate what is best in our own group as well as in other groups. Instead of always keeping their own hands in their environmental handicaps, Negro youth can take his bearings from the towering soils of Toussaint L'Overture in his fight for freedom in his leadership, Heury Highland Garnett in invention, Dumas, Dunbar and Phyllis Wheatley in literature. Tanner in art, Attucks in artrage and Washingtons in artrage. IF A SUFFICIENT NUMBER OF NEGRO YOUTH FOLLOWS IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF THE GREAT GALAXY OF DARK MEN AND WOMEN WHO HAVE HELPED SHAPE THE WORLD, THEY NEED HAVE NO FEAR OF THE PLACE IN LIFE THEIR POSTERITY WILL HAVE. A "Crime" Bombshell In The Windy City Edward B. Gore, white attorney and former head of the Chicago Crime Commission, started proud colored Chicago last Monday by telling 200 white business men that while New York is the center of the population, it furnished 40 per cent of all the crime. If Chicago is sensible, it will not fly, if intolerant, in business, but check on Mr. Gore's statement and find out if he is telling the truth. If he is not telling the truth, he can be thus categorized; but if he is telling the truth, he can be thus thinking and acting. The fact is, Chicago of all cities gives little room for racial alibis. Whatever happens to the group in the Windy City happens, the unity, but is one place where the Negro masses stand par with other masses and even where the captains of industry among the group have the same chance for big victories of industry of other groups. IF CRIME THERE IS MORE PREVALENT AMONG COLORED FOLK THAN AMONG SOUL LEADERS SHOULD FACE THE FACT LIKE MEN AND THEN SET ABOUT TO CORRECT THE CONDITIONS WHICH MAKE IT SO. The alibi of housing won't work, for Chicago colored folk have swept best residential section of the city. The alibi of economic depression won't work, for economic deprivation the same force in a city like Chicago. In southern cities where lower wages and drastic depression lower wages and drastic restrictive labor laws, the labor depression might be a cause, but the lower class Jews and some other groups in Chicago have a strong economic depression as the race group. The alibi of migration might be considered for there is a large body of people living in the country. Still with the efficient social agencies, the biggest churches in the world, and the best racial organization, political organizations, the counsellors should be possible to cope with this phase of the matter. As to environment, the group must more and more come to make a difference, of course, but even with all jim crow and segregation wiped away, the two groups will live together in different worlds, biologically at least. Most crime is committed in that upper froth and foam of the softer men seek only the selfish appearing of human emotions and greedy accumulation of luxuries for their own sake. Colored Chicago is developing more proportionate crime than other groups, it is not being the group is developing its environment more in this strata of froth and foam than in the underlying previous strata of human achievement. As Others See Us (From N. Y. Times) The falling birthrate among the white population of the United States is a fact that women are forsaking the home for pleasure hunting, and the growing birth rate among the Negroes is seen by Professor Speyer, of the University of Texas, just returned from America, asending to produce a grave race problem which must be faced in the future. What appealed to him most about Negroes is the mental and spiritual as well as the physical cleanliness of the people. There is a general spirit of charitableness and generosity too, he said, but which is much abused, a large proportion of the money intended for charities being spent in administration. The police, he said, were little respected and property was not nearly so safe as in Europe. Lindbergh's arrival in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, was met by a general boycott, the Chicago Daily Worker said Monday. Native papers carried such phrases about Lindbergh as "On his visit here he is only a traveling salesman of the United States," the Lindbergh "is not known here as a friend." Sailors Held Over As a result the sailors of two units of the United States fleet, the Wyoming, were held over for the reception, and 40 marines were on hand to protect the "good-will" flyer. The marines and sailors with the additional 1200 Americans on the crowd at the reception which Saturday, Feb. 11, 1908 missed Freed Time In His Life Most Baby" Ends After 16 Years Unkissed In State Prison The 20 year search for a "lost son" came to a happy ending here last week when Morris Bruce walked from the Maryland State penitentiary, for the first time in his 22 years of life a tree person. Bruce was paroled by Governor Ritchie last week after he had served for a long sentence for alleged arson, and he declared he never committed. Like Georgia Penance The story of young Bruce reads like a Georgia peonage case, but begins with a heartending mother and a father's long search for a lost baby. Charles Williams, father of the boy, told the story to an AFRO-boy, told the story as he exchanged greetings with him when he had just accompanied from the penitentiary. Williams lives in Melleva now, but 22 years ago died down on Bruce the boy was born his mother became his and he was left with a woman, keep while the mother went to hospital and the father to the country. When the father returned for the boy, no trace of him nor the woman with whom he had been left was found. It developed that the woman through a curious wide search was made by the father the boy was not found. Merest Accident Sixteen years later the father had occasion to give help to a boy just return from the penitentiary to listen to stories of open life by the interest accented a name that attracted his attention. It turned out to be his son and the father had decided to set plans in operation to free him. Through Roy S. Bond, attorney, the boy was set free last week. Was Bound Out When he was with whom the father had taken care of himself called in welfare workers took charge of him and later he was sent to the farm of Daniel H. Gather, white, at Glenwood, Howard County. There he worked for his board and lodging until he was sixteen, when he and a white boy were accused of arson. At the time of the fire, Brouse says, the farm but he had been by officers, he was told to say he did it. under promise that he would be freed and taken back home. Instead he was given a 20 year sentence, the white boy was set, free. White Woman Helps But there was one white woman a sister of her, who accused him of stealing money who knew him, and it was partly with her help that he was freed. This woman was Mrs Willie Gathe, who has planned to find the boy suitable employment. Never Kissed Young Bruce told his attorney, Mr. Brace, that he kissed a girl in his life. He saved money at the penitentiary and played a saxophone in the prison band. MY PEOPLE A Little Poetry and a Lot of Truth (BY EVA J. AJESSE) Folks say if one may have a fault ...

Gibson, owner of the Standard Theatre, for alleged injury sustained when a man and a section of the balcony railing fell on her back, started in Common Pleas Court here Monday. The accident occurred last May during a performance of the "Seven-Eleven" company at the local playhouse. During the midst of the most exciting part of the show, to which a capacity audience had turned out, a policeman entered the house in pursuit of an alleged fugitive, and such a strenuous battle that in some manner he was either thrown or fell over the balcony. In his frantic clutching at something for support he managed to grab the lower leg, and then gave way, precipitating him into the chestra circle where he landed on the head and back of Miss Rice. AND HA A Warning Theatrical performers are warned against persons who claim to represent the AFRO-AMERICAN without showing their credentials. Last week two performers paid for a cut and a story on their show which never came, to the office because the writer was a fake. The AFRO does not charge any fee for news stories or pictures appearing in its columns. The suddenness of the incident caused pandemonium in the house and the plaintiff alleges that "a general alarm confusion, stampede, rush and riot were created" during which she "was violently knocked down, walked upon, dragged, kicked, trampled upon, and otherwise severely and painfully injured." When rescued by theatre employees Miss Rice was unconscious, and was rushed to Pennsylvania Hospital where it was found that she had suffered abrasion about the head, body, arms, and legs, and in addition had sustained a sprained left ankle and back, dislocated right knee and suffered hemorrhages of the nose, which kept her from her job as waitress for several months. The fugitive escaped during the confusion. The defense contends that the officer entered the playhouse without permission or notice by means of the fire escape and that no employee of the theatre had taken part in the attempted arrest, thus absolving them from any responsibility in the occurrence. ed! e powo it exactly n; so fine in and clinging to your own t, and more, ler, ideal for is the right If you prefer a moderately heavier face powder ask for BLACK=WHITE "Incense of Flowers" in the liberal 50c box.

Musician's Trail By Carl Dillon for A. N. P.) NORTH CAROLINA Selma, Alabama Meet the influential tour of 1899-1900 was prompted through their curiosity to see our great and diverse country. The present our great and diverse country has been hiding within us for someone that the musicians of not this country alone but of the world are making out of the music we such places as London, Paris, Berlin, New York, Atlanta, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Los Angeles. This thought is of the greatest benefit upon some practical experiment is made of it. Hence, I have necessarily assumed the role of our great and whenever I have a spare I invariably give a program somewhere for musically evangelistic purposes. And so I find myself in now. There were persons in Selma who knew I would be in the vicinity of their community and who like me would be interested that along with the visitation of the places where I have been presented in concert before I have a peculiar weakness for visitation and acquaintance with new people. if new people City Mald But Selma was "afraid" to undertake a concert because of the so-called lack of appreciation on the part of the inhabitants. This attitude has always appealed to clergyman who would declare that he was "afraid" to hold church services because of the surrounding unbelief. He was insisted upon a gathering at Selma, though small, for fortifying. And so I talked of music and sang to the gathering and the same thing was revealed to me. I was told that many similar occasions before. I could see the faces of some (not all) lighten and their eyes glisten as I tried to bring to them the music. I sang to them the music. On these occasions every similar audience that musicians must depend to increase the number of music lovers. But conversely, this same number is lost if musicians persist in believing because their number is not less. Putting It Over. Next came the Both Selma and Hamlet had pretty much the same musical reputation and I had really not Leid much in anticipation. But Hamlet soon won over and been so convinced as I was at Hamlet, the hitherto heralded unmusical hamlet? A huge audience turned to the concert. And we were in the local school principal, and John Perry, physician violinist, and their collaborators were not "afraid" to put the thing in front, and so I could not help but feel a sense of pride, especially since one of my former piano pupils accompanied me. At the close of the week I went to the concert, where I was presented personally under the direction of the executive secretary of the Y. M. C. A., to the accompaniment another member, to me to say to the singers that if they would be sure of the efficient accompaniment, their accompanists, before starting on a concert, each piano for me to develop their own, says Your Musician.

REGAL OPENS CHICAGO—The new Regal Theatre opened on Saturday to a crowd that continued to come until the final night. After entering the auditorium one feels as if he is within an immense tent. Besides the spindler and of course the wealth and variety of entertainment. Following the showing of the feature Dave Peyton and his symphonic band done with a picturesque setting, Sammy Williams, house organist, is without an equal. We have heard the band perform, we select Sammy as second to none. Fess Williams and 18 jazz boys selected from some of Chicago's head bands all his own easily won the patrons. Blanch Calloway in a costume that did not do justice to her is far better. Alex Lovely and Marshall Rogers stopped the show with their comedy.

White speaking. White speaking. Old-time singing while back I was informed that the success of "Shuffle Along." the show that was a tremendous hit on Broadway several years ago. The cast was made up largely of ladies and gentlemen. The good so overcome the bad that those who wished to go bad always evaded the Last week a critic was forced to reprimand an actor for having taken the wife (white) of a stage attendant to his southside hotel. The critique was too much of a gentleman to publish the actor's name, his motto be in To Aid, Not to Destroy, but should this fellow or any of his fellowmen continue to carry on this practice, we shall aim our guns in their direction good and plenty. Actors must have a place to live, therefore, hotels. Yet he must learn that the lobby of the hotel is not a rehearsal hall, also that when in his room he should try not to disturb the other guest. I have always said that if I were the manager of a hotel I would not cater to tap-dancers. I find daily many noted teams dissolving partnerships. There are various reasons for these dissolutions. Sammy and Benny, as neat a dancing team as one wishes to see, dissolved because the field was crowded. Sammy is working at Kelly's Stables while Benny has joined hands with Fulton Alexander, of the dissolved "3 Gingersnaps". The boys have a straight comedy, talk and dance act.

George Stateen, formerly of Kelly and Satenen, is now doing his single at the Plantation Cafe, his dissolution, it is alleged, was brought about by financial misunderstandings. A visit to the hotels and agencies will yield long lines of idle客人. On this list we find some very good talent. However, we find a few acts that we want to work on as Workmen and Thompson, the Three Black Aces or such singles as Ollie Powers, Teddye Peters and Marshall Rogers.

The Dance Was Postponed Last Week DAY— You have never seen a picture like this one! DERS ROYAL Irvin C. Miller' third edition of "Brownskin Models," a combination which includes some artistic and well planned semi-muide poses, plenty of burnt cork and a few bits which fit well under the appalation of a large number of customers at the Royal this week. Coming from a southern tour of several weeks, the revue has lost its charm and has been terminated it during the past two seasons. There are some excellent individual performances, however, the old fashioned dancers, the unwound and society dancers, easily reaping a big share of the applause. The two were seen in an exhibition of waltz numbers when reviewed. Helen Powell, a slender young miss who broke into the choristers' ranks only a year and a half ago, is leading the ensemble now. Miss Powell is pleasiness in her dance bit with John Henderson during which he sings "Cest Vous." Blanche Thompson, who manages the "Models" and "Models" the character roles, leads a burlesque trio which includes Miss Powell and Olivia Boatner. Dressed in costumes which take one back about a score years, they contribute largely to the laugh provoking with "I Walked Back From The Buggy Ride." George Matthews, formerly of A. and T. College, sings "Girl Of My Dreams." Saltus and Boatner, two well-attired steppers who have seen considerable service in the western night clubs, are putting over their soft shoe eccentricities and black bottom hoofing and bidding for the patrons' favor. Theodasia Johnson leads the "Models" in the poses, one a seashore scene in which gay colored hearts take the place of conventional rainment, and two others with relining figures on a raised dais. The comedy is carried by Geo. Crawford and Joe Russell, two old timers who indulge in a line of absurdity. Members of the corus are Olivia Boatner, Collen Morton, Mary King, Brennan, Louse Williams, Ellen Williams, Peggy Morris, and Sadie Mitchell. D. C.

Girl Took Stolen Money Miss Annie Jackson, 259 Bruce street, is being held in the Central Police Station charged with receiving stolen money from James Franklin, who is being held by the police charged with assault and robbery. MORE OLD KENTUCKY (Continued From Page 1) of the state of Connecticut. The girl's sigil signified papers contented to the marriage. I issued the license because there was no legal reason why I should not do so. She was frank in admitting he was of Negro blood. Ask if his father was a mulatto, he said: "No. he was a blooded Negro. My mother was a slave. Why shouldn't we get love her. Why shouldn't we get married? I don't see what all this excitement is about." The girl deliaped it was a real love match. "Ours is a case of love at first sight." she said. "I fell in love with Clarence at the very first meeting and he fell in love with me. I'm making no mistake in marrying him." Won By "Old Kentucky Home" On Mouth Organ Here's the new Mrs. Mellen's story of how she love her father. "Mother and I lived downstairs in Clarence house when we moved here from Hazardville. The very first night, I heard his singing. My God, then he played it on his mouth organ. "I loved that voice. It didn't make a bit of difference when I found out the one who was giving me so much pleasure. "We became fast friends next day. That was 4 months ago. It only took me that long to learn to love . . . and to be loved." He danced into the face of her stout-limbed fiance, whose name appears on Rockville's public World War Honor Roll, indicative of two years in Uncle Sam's Navy. "I never went on. I never use any make-up. I never drunk or smoked. I don't dance. Our only dissipation is the road." Oh, yes. Clarence and I "sing hymns together lots." "She is a good girl, good enough for the finest man, white or black. Of course, at first I was surprised, but it was Beatrice's first romance and she spilled it. There's a motto on my wall, and it reads. What cannot be cured must be endured. Well, you can't cure love, so I gave in and sented me to a place of silence. I marry me like a man and told me everything. He is unusual in other ways, too. for he never drinks, gambles or goes out night. He is a mesmestic man, and the two sit down and read and talk for hours." Kellem Saves He's Boss "But I'm not nenecked," put in Kellem. "I am the boss," he said. "We have mutual tastes and get along without any friction." Beatrice has boomed hair, but her hair was shortened for convenience, but she was not. It was learned that Mrs. Tavlor moved out of the Kellem house when she first learned of the romance, but only served to intensify it. Henry F. Arnold of the APRO staff was among the newspaper men here for an interview. The discounter, who was a member of the pastor, Brooks did not perform the ceremony that he was threatened by the Ku Kluxans. The fiery cross completely cowed the preacher. Kellem and his fiance drove in a taxi to Elinonn. Conn. and asked Justice of the Peace Carl Doehring. Doehring was willing to officiate but he did not. Rockville and his hands were tied. They huddled the justice in the cab and took him back to the Kellem home on Vermont. The taxi still waited. The couple came out, drove to Veronion Junction, and from there took a train for New York and Philadelphia for a honeymom. And Conscience Despite all talk and excitement despite even Ku Klux mouths! everywhere even though in Vermont, echo of a New England conscience saying "The marriage is right." Kluxers and Nero haters got the prosecuting attorney here to investigate the girl's sanity. Miss Fulll was haled before it was normal. No one examined Kellen. They took his sanity for granted. Beatty *Knows Her Orions* Baskett *Knows Her Orions* will like the solid New England hills. She left school at 114 and for nearly six years has tended an invalid mother. She's been to one michelle placed together when they lived in the same house and were ready to marry and stay respectable when love came. "If I can't get him live with him," Beatty told her mother not long ago. Kellen Half White Kellen's color makes possible his color. Nobody else colored at will. He is two shades lighter than most southern whites in Mississippi. He not in the navy without stating his color. Nobody else colored at will. He is white. Like thousands of light colored folk who "pass" there would never have been a simple about the marriage, because the license his native town. But here in Rockville, Mary Shreiner, assistant town clerk, knew him and put "colored" opposite his name on the license.

"Companionate hell," was his description of such unions. The very mention or companionate marriage is but a fad, the professor said, and the name will be forgotten in a few years just as any passing friend is misleading he stated that there always have been "pal" marriages if one is willing call the common-law unions by the same term. Can't Eliminate Pain One of the principal ideas of the faction is that ships which must come from establishing and maintaining the recognized marital relationship, he continued. He urged the members of the league to accept the view that suffering is a virtue, life, life.

Hennessy was a target for the first hour of Suges, who, with the probable exception of the first minute of fighting, swarmed all over him, displaying a speed that swept the opponent hard and hard to land his powerful left job but Sonny stepped right inside of it and proceeded to land body blows with terrific succession. A second round hard landed a sound Suges landed a savage first hook on Hennessy's jaw which sent the boxer down for the count of seven. A second one did the work for the Suges weighed 129 pounds.

Le COUNT CHESTNUT NEW YORK CITY—Just a few more than ten years ago, three young students of our racist group had a struggle on the businege business way up in the rugged hills of Hanover. N. H., where stands the great Dartmouth College. Their advertising proclaimed to the work—not the cross-sections—of the "Big Green" seekers after knowledge, that "We Do All Kinds of Cleaning and Repairing: Get Our Special Offer." Nothing was said about "winning," but that probably was thrown in with the bill. And then, as if an afterthought to urge Dartmouth men to make Hanover a "spotless town," these "Three Adult Get Their" added at the end of their announcement: "Lake City Laundry Agency." Grainger Brothers Now, of course. Your curiosity is unbounded by this time; so I'll name these three ingenious hustlers and save the strain on your heart: William R. R. Grainger, Jr., L.Y. Grainger, and L. B. Grainger; brothers, just think of it, and pulling together like that. When "Rand", or Randolph, as William was always called, dashed hither and thither across the campus-wilds of far removed, mountainous, wooded Dartmouth scenes, and as he scaled up the steps within the "dorns", and again as he jumped down the same steps, collecting, carrying, and delivering the results of the work of the "Brother's shop and laundry agency to "the wearers of the Dartmouth Green," he was getting much of the practice necessary to make him the perfect disciple of Harry Hillman, the Hanover institution's famed track mentor; and thus was a great half-miller What Red Capping at the Springfield, Mass. station did the Howard team accomplish for Red Grange, this same thing it was that these deliveries and the other ones incidentally, too, no one of them was made poorer in purse. A. Doctor Now But enough of the factions. As your scribe sat and looked off the chippings and scrap book of "Rand" Granger, or jardine me, it should now be Devil's Garden on home Stuvesant avenue, Brooklyn, his eyes fell upon a letter therein dated September 12, 1911. The hand that jenned it was a woman of endless death, but there on the page stood out those words of invitation and encouragement from the great "Mike" Murph: "And for fleet monarchs, I have given little, bundled-up man with the long ulster coat, speaking in a hoarse, throaty tone, as he stood out on old Franklin Field at Penn. In my mind's eye, I saw again the genial Nate Cartell, D. B. Taylor, the genial Nate Cartell, now track mentor at Penn State, Jimmy Mulligan, coach for both Georgetown and the Navy, and a host of other cinderpath celebrities of more than two Wanted At Penn "Mike" was trying to interest Dr. Grainger in coming to Penn, that fall. That, gentle reader was in those days. The greatness of his surest indication of track genius on the part of the one approached, that could be found. Good old "Mike," wasted no time on Dr. Grainger how he happened to be a writer being an Anthurite man, explained to the doctor that no offense was meant by the query, which proceeded wholly from a newspaper angle. Bigger Chance At Dartmouth The doctor said that his choice was made because he felt that he was the greatest possible home offered to work and to make good. Furthermore, he said, that even at this time, he was a lasting faith in the merits of Harry Hillman, Dartmouth track mentor, as a great encourager, developer, and builder of not only beef and brawn, but of men Right at this point, however, your scribe should make mention of a fact which the doctor told. When Hillman got Grainger at Dartmouth, he got a track athlete whose foundation stones of running career had been safely taken down. Down A.K. Newark, N. J. Randolph Grainger was one of the outstanding stars of the Barringer Hi track group. He graduated in 1997-11. Besides he was one of the most sought for secondary school track athletes in the East, when he was graduated from the University of Newark. Sport page headeners ever furnished by the local institution for the big Newark dailies. In his last year he counted 34 points for Barringer, the greatest number of any of his fellow fellows. 3 Years On Track At Dartmouth, Grainger became a letter man for 3 years in track, an outstanding 880 yard runner, and a champion of the famous Dartmouth 4000 yard indoor, and 2 mile outdoor relay teams. This team composed of Tucker, Grainger, Lagay, and Hiley, won the 1914-15 championship. 1914-15. Grainger was also one of the cross country harriers of the "Big Green outfits." In the Overton Of Tale. One of the most sensational races ever staged by "Rand" was at the Rand Grainger old Madison Square Garden, March 6, 1915. His predecessor, running third in the 4000 "yard relay against sale and win," had a team with 25 yard loss. Fleet-touched Johnnie Overton of Blue and White fame, was breezing along pretty, with the "Big Green's" bronze anchor man and captain his task. Little by little, he literally inched upon the Yale runner. Jurally flying over the bonte, he little sensed the little by little sensed the fact that an epic such as is seldom seen was being spun out before their very eyes—and once aware jumping into the frenzy of exhortation to spur the flamower lad across the tape as he passed Overton to win. He can shine as "front runners," but alas, sad to relate, unto few is it given to come from behind. Raced In Baltimore Another of Grainger's greatest races was at Baltimore, where he carried the C. C. against Hamer Baker in a Labor Day meet. And Hamer Baker was a name with which to conjure and work, track leagues, and American half mile champion. The race was for 880 yards; and although Grainger ran second, neck and neck he and Hamer Baker out in a quarter with but a few inches between them at the end. Victory Over Mel Sheppard Grainger at the great Metropolitan A. C. games in New York, September, 1912, drew the headline "In speeding the famous 'Mell' Sheppard, and also De Grouchy." Since the inspiration of this article is a practice physician, our scribe applies this opinion to the reaction of track work on the heart. No. Athletic Heart Said, the doctor, "There is no such thing as 'athletic' heart Track work, pursued under the proper training conditions, does no damage to the physical well-being. In fact, among athletes than anyone in similar group." Coming as it does from the mind of a physician who is attached to the Cardiology department of the hospital Staff, this expression carries added weight. As to the general value of athletictraining, Dr. Grainger had this to say: "The greatest value of training is operative. On the physical side, too, one learns how to take care of the body. The Character Side "But although the play and physical side are very important, the character side of this transexual contest makes me a good loser. I lost many races, but my motto always was. If you can't lose right then you won't. Good right good 'doubt' this last. Born In Arkansas Dr. William Richard Randolph Grainger first saw the light of day in Little Rock, Ark. December 22, 1915. He also a physician. His mother, Mary Louise Turpin Grainger, was a school teacher. The family after living in Arkansas, Alabama, Mississippi, New York, Va. and East Orange, N. J. settled in Newark. Here young Dr. Randolph Grainger received most of his education at Dartmouth, 1915, and an M. D. from Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, 1917. He was an Interne at Freedmen's Hospital Wife Also Physician On March 7, 1917, he married Isabelle Vandervall, also a physician. There is an infant daughter, Mary Isabelle Grainer. Click out another for the athlete, presided over by the coach, to have a goodly representation among those who have made good in service and responsibility. Clark, 20: Morehouse, 14 ATLANTA.

The comment of these two men, both versed in the sport, is that they are representing the players' view and the view of the manager, is worthy of consideration by those people who are looking forward to a big season in 1923. Lockhart says that the players in some instances have been treated unfairly because they have not conducted themselves in a manner sane and thoughtful players should. Bolden points to cooperation between players and owners to develop baseball for universal good. Contracts haven't meant very much in cultural good. It is not that they are not called them because they have been in constant fear of getting a raw deal. Baseball is the most highly organized sport among race athletes at present, and it is toward a humble understanding can be reached between players and their employers.

By AFRO SPORTS EDITOR Tennis At Hampton—Hooray For Bolden—Two Basketball Treats—Home Officials—Here They Come—Smoking. They had that indoor tennis tournament at Hampton. And it went off with a bang. You know Tidewater has something of a tennis fever new, having had the Southeastern Tournament and the National Tournament there last summer. Yes, they raised a racket down there, in fact several of them. Dick Hudlin showed them how to raise one and Drs. McGriff and Downing, inseparable vets of the court, raised a couple and tested out the novelty of playing tennis indoors. Charles H. Williams, who has been springing new ideas ever since he was a child, has been the physical director, had the idea and put it over. Of course, at Hampton many things can be carried to a new place, but the one cannot done with if the successes seem alike, but we believe the idea can be worked in other places. Oh. yes, we know the idea is not exactly a new trick, but for Brother Ed I has tried so seldom that you can't tell the difference. Hats off to our good friend Ed. Bolden! Beat the cymbal, sound the trumpet, for Jo, Brother Ed I has spoken words of wisdom and truth. Ed, you know was once said up sick for a child. You know was once said up sick for a child to day to give the public an carful. Says Ed: "While I advocated the present public system I find to have one tisites is oft times a drawback to some clubs, and ESPECIALLY TO THE PAPER MEMBER IN HOUSE MITTED TO ALL MEETINGS, AND BE ALLOWED TO GIVE THE PUBLIC THE VERSION OF THE TISITES OF ORGANIZED BASEBALL. The capitals, as you have guessed, are ours. We just couldn't refrain, because we can't be applied with little chance, as city in the country. There entirely too much antiquated system of dealings in newspapers that I know are only too willing to give plenty of their valuable space to the chronicling of one of the various sports. Not only in baseball but in all sports, of big and small calibre, there should be much more to the stories. And with the multifarious duties with which a sports editor is often confronted everything done to ex-tense the readers. And don't forget they are the ones to whom you are meant to the money. Give a thought to what Ed has said. Our hat is already doffed. Write these two dates down in your memory. Or better still, mark on the board for February 10 and February 20. Despite the dog Day, Lincoln's birthday, and Washington's birthday, these two days will in all probability be remembered. The morehouse basketball lassies are going to match skill with the Athenians, Baltimore's pride and joy. The lads from the sunny South are coming carrying such celebrities as Crawford, Sapp, Traylor, Dobbs, Brown, Archer, and others equally as brilliant, and hope to make things hot for the lads in the lassies paring for them, expecting all the while to cool them off. That's No. 1. Now on the 20th of February, Coach Drew's Morgan Bears and Coach Burr's Howard Bisons are going to attempt to gore each other in a basketball court and if you know what's what you'll see this one too. Morgan prined to avenge her two-point defeat in Washington. Howard determined to prove that the victory was not over, these aren't two basketball treats—well, hard hard to please. Mark these dates on your calendar.

UNKNOWNS ADMISSION—50 CENTS ADMISSION—50 CENTS Morehouse College boasts of having one of the best basketball teams in the country; having lost but 3 games in 5 years. The Athenians' revamped team is one of the best ever to represent Baltimore, being composed wholly of local boys. So, be sure to attend this game, for it will be the season's stellar attraction. Talking It Over By AFRO SPORTS EDITOR Section 1 of Rule 6 in Spaulding's Official Basketball Guide for 1927-28 states: "It cannot be too strongly attached to it, but a given game should not be connected in anyway with either of the organizations represented and . . . should thoroughly competent and impartial. To apply this rule and all that it implies is a matter much harder in real life than in appearance. There are officials who are competent but partial and there are others who, while impartial, are on the other hand, incompetent, and about as competent as they come and about as competent as they come and SEND THOSE SCORES! Managers or publicity managers of basketball teams, whether local or national, are required to send in the scores and a summary of the games played by their teams IMMEDIATELY AFFEDERATED. Scores reaching this office for out of town games must be in by U TUESDAY at 6 a.m. Local scores should be shown on the morning following the game. as strict in his interpretation of the rules as the average referee, there are many who disagree frequently with his decision. We do know, ourselves, of times when some of his decisions have not been just right, but who can do better? Gibson has a lot of enemies in Washington, particularly on the Howard campus. He has gathered unto him the most aggressive sonali- I can't see the logos of some who argue against Referee Gibson and turn around the next time and see how many games as he does seems to me to attest to his competence and impartiality. If he has ever favored the home team, I don't believe he did equally. There was some howl in Washington when Howard and Morgan played when Referee Westmoreland began to receive some ill natured boos when he refereed the Morgan-Howard Frosh game. Two-thirds of the fans, although they unanimously did not familiar with the changes in rules that take place from year to year. Instead of reading they vent their disapproval upon the referee, whom they are he is wrong. But if a referee is bad as disgruntled ones would have us believe I can't for the life of me see how he gets the call for every big game, there certainly are others available. If you have read these pages carefully you will note that the Dayton Independents baseball team and the Harrisburg Sox have sent in some news of their players' histories. They have given names and facts that could have been obtained from no one except the owners or managers. Yet it is only early in the last minute teams to send in any news. Instead they expect you to beg them and wheedle them and slip them into the team's going to do in the spring and summer. Mr. Johnson of the Sox and Mr. Huff of the Independents have shown baseball and business sense combined with their faults. Some of these clubs that will in all probability be 'singin' 'en before next fall had better take a lesson from them. There's been quite a bit of smoking going on at the games at the New Albert this season. We will, of course, we will be the part of some of the men. But when you stop to think of it, the smoking is quite offensive to a number of people. It is impolite to the players, and the players will be blown in their faces. There are also men to whom the smell of smoke is offensive. And there are the players. The smoke laden atmosphere will be conducive to better players. Sirs around the wall scream "No Smoking", but it appears that Baltimore doesn't believe in signs. We believe that they will be voluntarily if the men will only give it a thought. A number of people have been quoted as saying that they did not attend the games on Monday, and smoking is not offensive to you if it may be to someone else. Two hours is not such a long time to sit without smoking and there's a danger. You might get so excited that you swallow your chicle, pipe or cigarette, that it would be uncomfortable. Let's get together and stop the smoking. CLEVELAND, O. — Playing nine minutes without either team making a score, the Baltimore Eagles and second-seeded sure winners, until in the last of play a Playland guard sank a basket, giving the locals the long end of an 18-15 score, Tuesday of last ORANGEBURG, S.

RIDA FIND RUBE CHAMBERS DEAD IN PALM BEACH Body Of Former Lincoln Gt.'s Southpaw Found Along Railroad PLAYED DAY BEFORE PALM BEACH, Fla.—Arthur- "Rube" Chambers, southpaw of the Lincoln Giants, and who has been a great player for Poinsett nine here, drew a pass in the third game of the Breakers- Poinsett series, and are time for a run. He struck out by the Grim Reaper. Chambers' body was found lying along the railway tracks in West Poinsett. He was pulled in. His untimely passing fell like a pail on the community here for on day before he had played great games. The Poinsett team was beaten by the Breakers, 5 to 1. A substantial purse was made by the help here and the body of the elite player was shipped to his home. Chambers was a colorful figure on the diamond, and despite his wild unassistent ability to the Poincarena hurling staff, aiding considerably the work of Smoky Joe Williams. **Third Game** The Breakers bounded the Poincarena team Tuesday by the score of 5-1. A spectacular catch by left fielder Gray killed all hope that the Breakers teams may have cherished. The win came in the second inning when with one out, Owens walked and Gason scored him with a two-base blow. The win was aashim singled and when a single by B. Williams and a double by Harris, with two errors on the latter's hit, allowed both to ashim singled and walked. By Farrell sent them across the plate. Harris who had singled and gone to second on the centerfielder's error, was ashim singled over second. The victory was Ryan's second in as many starts. **Fourth Game** Great support given Ryan accounted for win in the fourth game of the series by a 2-1 score. While Ryan is credited with three consecutive victories, much of the success was especially Bobby Williams at third. The Pointica team scored their run in the first inning when Cummings, first sacker, laid a terrific blow over third and circled the diagonal in the second half of the season. In the fourth inning B. Williams, of the Breakers, opened by drawing a walk. He stole second and rommed home on B. Harris' double in the sixth when with one out White got two bases when left fielders Thomas muffed the horsehide after a long run. He scored when B. Williams sinned over second base. The series now stands 3 to 1 in favor of Williams. POINCIANA Evans, ss. Cleveland Stars; Prohr. Pen Red Cens; Cummings, B. Hilderade, J. Tans All Stars; A. Thomas, r. Buffalo Stars; Jones, M.

Oh I've got oodies and oodies of good news to tell you about things which you had to go away and miss. Last week-end proved prolific for social events. Funy too, how the weeks seem to average up so evenly with two or three "big nights" on the calendar and the rest of the week just mediocre. But old dear, social life struck its stride last week and got off to a flying start. — No, no, I am perfectly comfortable, lounging here on your divan. Cigarette? Don't care if I do, Pat. You're getting too classy for me, with your gold-tipped, perfumed Turks, though. Really there so many things "popping" in my mind I hardly know where to begin first. I could start with the beautiful, hand-painted ladies, the charming gowns, the husbands without their wives, the newlyweds, and the good things to eat, but of course, you'll want to know who — what — when and where. GIRLIGLAGS AND ADELFHIN DANCES Girls and dancers gags and Adelephin gags and Adelephin gags were formal dances at almost the same hour. I was in a quarantine room at the Penn Hotel, and the Adelephin's at the New Elks Hall. There was something of a difference, however attended both — but let's begin with the Girlglugs. A deed was授予 the Penn Hotel entrance and a young man in livery held the door even as you entered — that alone, a girl, would be going to so, something worth-while. A Girlglug member, who greeted you with the pleasure of your presence, entered the door, where lay their club book, specially designed and bound, with the color yellow, in which you registered your name. But, Oh Boy, after that — the musician, But. Oh Boy, after that — the musician, Brothers, the whole family of them played. Anyhow, every instrument talked for itself, every instrument talked for itself, colors hanging in strips, which completely hid the orchestra, with the words "Gritsiness was especially noticed and that w" "b" "b" "b" the left arm of each member of the club, and desire, as the guests continued to pour, were observed. Mrs. Robert Young grew which was of the latest, and reached nearly flesh-colored chiffon satin with daring wrists. Wetze Murphy, her gown was of a French model of black taffeta, so was her dress of white taffeta, and her dresses are coming back like long hair? Odell Watkin was beautifully gowned in liver chin with a red rose candle up at the neck. He might have been right, I might name that looked so attractively the Adelphians on the same night.

FOR ADULTS SAMPLE FREE ACMERIES & BILTORD DR.BULLS CoughSyrup STANDARD FOR FIFTY YEARS 30F FOR GRANDECOURNS FOR OVERFOLDS RECREATION TO BE STRESSED BY URBAN LEAGUE ERNEST T. ATTWELL ADDRESSES MEETING Declaring that during the last 21 years playgrounds used by colored people had increased from 41 to 8000 in 811 cities, Ernest T. Attwell, director of the Bureau of Colored Work of Recreation Association of America, urged the Urban League to stress recreation in its 1928 program, at its third annual meeting Wednesday night.

John R. Cary, president of the Urban League, declared that the league would appoint a new president, William N. Jones, vice-president of the league, and for a number of years director of the municipal recreational work. He well said that some investigation of the local recreational program was already underway, and predicted that it would receive attention in the future work of Annual Reports In his annual report of President Cary told of the part the league had to do to bring the Provident Hospital project to a successful conclusion. To date colored cards had subscribed to $170,000 and whites $159,000 to this hospital and that all total more than $370,000 had been made in time in after the campaign was over. The manner in which the group reacted to this drive has taken them forever out of the office, equal par with all citizens in the estimation of Baltimore and the country, he said.

Some of the organizations with whom we are associated have been one third of their time to work among Negroes, yet frequently employ no colored workers. William N.

INCREASE IN CRIME SHOWN IN REPORT More Serious Crimes Committed In 1927 Than Previous Year WARD GETS HOME Adopted Son Granted Druid Hill Avenue House Serious crimes showed an increase in Baltimore during the year 1927, with 202 more felonies being committed than in the previous year, a report of the Baltimore Internal Justice Commission issued this week, reveals. While murders decreased, burglaries and robberies increased to the extent of 232. Homicides have decreased steadily since 1923 where passion or premeditation have accrued the crimes, but manslaughters under which head automobile killings have been classed have increased total of 100,000 deaths to an alarming degree. The convictions for automobile deaths were few. The majority got no further than the Magistrate's court, the least of all, slaughter of all kind, 40 were dismissed, and of the cases tried only 3 resulted. Mr. M. Hephron, white, director of the commission, says it is difficult to explain the increase in crimes because of the arrests have been certain in a large degree. Conditions have proven that unemployment as a cause of crimes has been greatly overstated. Y. W. C. A. Notes 502 girls and young women are enrolled in the clubs at the W. Y.
