Religion "The white man's religion," said Dr. Johnson, "has made the mistake of denying that Protestant religion is the white man's religion. This is untrue. I is an Asiatic religion.

He may be traveling faster than your eyes, but do the best you can. Democrats, most of who got into Congress, the shortened down when driven with an election certificate from the Governor of his state. Our white people are making history. Just because Democrats allow democrats to browbeat them, Democrats have the wrong end of the argument but they have the adder. The governor of Illinois, P. A. Agro* is heard around the new world democrats have been using that cry since they got up their party. Birds of a feather flock together, as you know. Take the word "Negro" out of the dictionary and democrats would have no "issue." You carry the G. O. P. easy. You carry the Republican nomination again. In Illinois, greatest state, a state still under control of Lincoln's memory, a G. O. P. nomination means election. When a Republican means an election because only those vote who do the nominating. In G. O. P. states, nominations don't always mean election because those who do the nominating must meet those who do the voting. Senator Smith's mistrust When, be he, the Senate will find it easy to talk to him about the ballot for ALL Americans. He knows what democrats can do because he saw they did too.

Negro History Week Young men, read "Men of Mark" by William J. Simmons, educator, of the University of the National Baptist convention. Of the great leaders of the Reconstruction John R. Lynch, still living in his eighties, was the ablest debater and orator of the time. He is like so much light in a dark corner. Students ought to get hold of it and read it several times. Read "Amstett on Virginia" by Robert E. Lee, the Captain. Mr. Langston was the scholar of the era of great men. A lot of colored men threw away their time writing books on theology. Look at the fly leaf and pass. Read every life of Lincoln you come upon. The end of the life of Lincoln was the beginning of your life. Read every life of Lincoln you come upon. Robert E. Lee. Then turn to Jefferson Davis. You can't appreciate HOW you started unless you know of the men who tried to keep from slavery. Study the lives of Wendell Phillips and William Lloyd Garrison. Then, above all, get hold of a life of John Brown. Brown began the War which led to the Battle of Lincoln and fought by Grant. As you read, read more than the words before you. Unless you are capable of THINKING you are not a student. If you are not what you read, but HOW you read. That Bible verse might read this way.

This is the reason why nearly all of the paintings of the noble ladies of that period always show Africans."

Dearest Lollipop: Did I say Washingtonians would go into Lenten retirement beginning February 22? I must have been dreaming, for last week was the most effervescing week we have experienced in a long, long time, and quite the most outstanding affair was given by the Saps. These high-powered hostesses gave on our most enjoyable jambands that we had this year, and it all happened at Murray's Casino last Friday night, when Branson's Society Orchestra simply played out of this world and hated to stop and marumus. It was instrumental for orchestras to do in this day and time and especially in this town. At the BACELORS BALL on the 21st, the intermissions were long and numerous, and as it should be for our most formal, dignified and select affair. And. please, Lollipop, let me mention right here that the WHAT-GOOD-ARE-FE dance, which was also on the 21st, was the same dresses were down so tight, pinched!

Hail To The Visitors Most of the visitors to the week was honored of three very lovely visitors: Bernia Austin and Annabelle Anderson of New York and Jessica Anderson Roegers of Chicago. Everyone was the most interesting and entertaining of New York's hostesses, and also as the proprietor of the Indo-American embassy, Annabelle reminds you of high school days, but that child is a real estate broker, who rubs clibs and matches wits with York's real estate agent, and I do know that he is daunted. Jessica has a most attractive and unusual gown and gift shop in the windy city, and has just made the rounds of New York real estate for a summer and summer display. So you see these three are some business women, and we did right to turn the city upside down for them; and relatives. Marie Katherine Lewis came Lewis arranged their social engagements.

C. — The commonlaw wife of a longshoreman killed in the course of employment is as much entitled to compensation as a legal, the United States Employees in an opinion made, Monday, in 'Cal' First President To Pose Freely With Delegations WASHINGTON, D. C., (Special)—President Coolidge is the first occupant of the White House to leave his office, winter and summer, to pose freely with delegations that come to see him. Addison N. Scurlock told the AFRO-AMERICAN this week. 2 Mr. Scurlock whose studio is at 900 You street, speaks from an experience of 25 years as a photographer in the capital. Since the days of President Roosevelt he has been taking the pictures of delegations that come to the White House, but it has been only in recent years that the President, he came outside to pose with his visitors. Other delegations came out to pose with white delegations, but evidently when the colored groups arrived none of them suggested that they go out with them and it just didn't take place. College Men Started Up One of the classes that visited Mr. Coolidge with the request that he attend their annual gathering in Washington and if that were impossible, write them back to ask the President to back up his greeting by posing with a group of college men. Mr. Coolidge acceded willingly, and since that time has posed all of his photographs for all of the elevations. Started A Quarter Of A Century A quarter of a century ago, Mr. Scurlock started as an apprentice with Rice Studio, founded in 1861. He took photographs establishments in the capital. After seven years he quit this for street work, canvassing from house to house and taking photographs wherever he came. Seventeen years ago he opened the present studio at Ninth and You streets and his files show that he was a photographer. In 1897, Mr. Scurlock made the official photograph for the Negro Exhibit at Jamesstown. He has won gold medals and prizes for at fairs and exhibits all over the country. In 1913 he made a tour of the south making a series of photographs showing various phases of the Negro life for the camera. The work of Scurlock Studio is known throughout the country. Celebrities manage some themed events in Washington to get Mr. Scurlock to make at least one photograph. As an example of this popularity the photograph of Washington State College, Orangeburg, S. C. printed in last week's AP-AMER-IGCAN was made by Scurlock. Annotated by Grand Master of Masons Durham, N. C. was also made by him. Photo Of Durham. Asked to take the white photographs he has made, Mr. Scurlock included S. C. Coloridge Taylor Paul Laurence Durham, Booker T. Washington, H. H. Haves, James Weldon Johnson, W. E. B. DuBois Kelly Miller, W. T. Vernon Scott, Perry Howard and Ralph Tennell. Asked if men or women were easier to photograph, Mr. Scurlock said that men were more easily pleased. "A woman may like her photograph today" he said, "but six months from now her dress out of style or the style of arranging her hair choices or she has grown so much when she had that photograph taken. All or any of these three causes might encourage to prevent her from ever wanting to see the picture again." He said, "after 5 or 10 years they still come back to order more copies of a certain photograph." Married. Three Children. Mr. Spindlek marriage Bessie Addison Jr. and 13 children.

The BABY Just one warning: It is genuine Fletcher's Castoria that physicians recommend. Other preparations may be just as free from all doubtful drugs, but no child of this writer's is going to be cared for and feeding of babies that comes with Fletcher's Castoria is worth its weight in gold. No another in this enlightened age would give her baby something she would not want, especially when a few drops of plain Castoria will right a baby's stomach and end almost every root. Fret not, root it, root it it seems no time until everything is secreta. That's the beauty of Castoria; its gentle influence seems just what is needed. It does all this castor oil might. It does all this castor oil might. Without the evil taste. It's delicious.

A senior infantry unit of the Reserve Officers' Training Corps is maintained in the military department. Enrollment in it is required of all male students physically fit in their freshmen and sophomore years as a prerequisite for a degree.

Page Four WORLD CREATED FOR STRUGGLE AND PAIN Whenever A Group Tries To Be Happy They Disintegrate Says Trinity Pastor Baltimore Has Population And Wealth Enough Declaring that this world was created as a place for constant struggle and pain in groups that disintegrate health and immorality when they seek to be happy, the Rev. C. E. Stewart urged continual vision and action in his discourse Sunday morning at Trinity A. M. E. Church. The pastor took as his text, John 9-7, "He went his way and washed out of the searing," and told the story of the blind man who received his sight after Christ had annointed his eye with a clay poultte and sent him to wash in the baptismal pool. Deep rooted customs, he declared, are most dangerous. Lynchings and prejudice grow out of customs. Fear to blaze new trails holds back prog- ress. On the other hand it has been the action of men with vision beyond those of their fellows who made it possible to replace the old with the speeding vehicles of today and has made men sour into the air. in NYC. The man of today, he said, is one who will ride into the darkness on a new vehicle into places where people have never gone and force his way Needs Program Baltimore is suffering for men of vision, declared Dr. Stevens city showroom, which has with industry it is 120,000 colored people.

There is a difference between what we have been taught and what we have learned. have learning religion gets so high class — so decent as not to be interested in the most abased sinner in the community, there is something wrong with it, said the pastor. There is a single angle. There is nowhere in the Bible where it says that we must be happy, said the speaker. This is a world of struggle. The man who and satisfy with him, as they are, is read of the undertaker. If a child keeps still and quiet, you should keep watch it.

HOLY SPIRIT NOT SPOKEN OF TODAY Dr. O'Connell Says Science And Education Have Brot About Change SCIENCE WON'T SATISFY Term "Spiritual" Now Applied To Arts The advance of the intelligence point of view have brought about the lack of spirituality in the present day church, declared Dr. P. O. O'Connell, Morgan College教授, in a sermon Sunday morning at Mina Street Presbyterian Church. The Holy Spirit, once a potential factor is not now spoken of now, the speaker said. Tracing changes in religion since education became widespread, Dr. O'Connell told his audience that the term "spiritual" is seldom applied to religious, but the aesthetics. When one wishes to speak of the qualities of poetry, painting and sculpture he now uses spiritual to denote the higher development. We know that the young people are neglecting the Bible entirely, according to Dr. O'Connell. Where the study of the Scripture is in the curriculum of schools, students consider it a waste Science Can't Satisfy The advance of science will not lead to destruction of belief in God, declared the speaker. The meek will satisfy the solution to satisfy the soul. A Suorer Power is behind it," he said.

Royall, well known realtor and president spoke. He traced the constructive growth of Harlem, the world's greatest city, community, show the real estate problems and predicted an even greater enhancement of values to come. Said the speaker, "In spite of false prophets and the alarmist, who figured Harlem values in real estate would depreciate, the very opposite has come to pass; as Harlem properties are showing a better return and selling higher demand, other section of our city, considering its distance from the financial and commercial centers of our 6,000,000 square feet. 25,000 Houses *Colored Harlem occupies about 250 city blocks and $2,000 houses. This population owns at least $50,000,000 worth of real estate; and pays approximately $100,000,000 annually in landlord's. Colored Harlem occupies in food, clothing, carares recreation, schooling and the like $4,000,000,000 or more per year. The insurance companies collect from Harlem annual premiums of more than $30,000,000,000 of these premiums. Overhead carry-arms there are less than 2 per cent vacancies in Harlem properties. it is but fair to say, if these people are profitably employed by those who collect and profit from the cities of Harlem's life, they could be a vacancy in all that action.* Loan Sharks Discussing the constructive work of his association in endeavoring to alleviate the difficulties under which our group labors in securing mortgages at equitable rates, we have this to say, "Much of the borrowing for mortgages has fallen into the hands of the loan sharks who have reaped a rich harvest, money often being in the most destatic terms and conditions, in spite of which handicap. Interest is paid and values maintained. "It is this condition which the Upper Harlem Board of the Brokers, composed entirely of colored men, is bending every effort to improve." Expect Half Million Forcasting a future for the great Harlem center, Mr. Royall uttered the following prophecy: "No one familiar with the subject considers the prediction that the city will be empty by supplying Harlem by 1933, in the least exaggerated, and members of the Harlem Boat of Real Estate are, of course, thoroughly alert to the opportunities which will arise due to this substantial population in Harlem, and what it will do for real estate values in that section.

In all history, no Indian was ever known to have constipation. Nor need YOU. He chewed the bark of a tree called cascara. Today, we have the candy cascaret. Cascarizing the bowels never forms a laxative habit. If already formed, an occasional cascaret will usually break the habit. Your cascaret strengthens the muscular walls of the bowels, and their need of any aid at all grows constantly less. What other cathartic has this characteristic? The writer knows of none. An evacuation brought gently about by cascara will, nine times in ten, be followed by full functioning of the bowels on the morrow—and the ACTION as with sickening salts, or any of the man-made purgatives that go through one's system like a bullet. Physicians tell us cascara is the ideal laxative—and the tongue tells CASCARETS They Work While You Sleep!

If you tell a child you are going to do a thing, you say 'Yes,' you mean Yes; when you say 'Yes,' you mean Yes; and when you say 'No' you mean No. You are sometimes afraid to lose the love of your children by being strict with you. You say 'No,' you love love for you, by letting him do as he pleases, than you are in any other way." "Very often a child disobeys its parents. If you tell a child you are going to do a thing, do it. Make the child understand that you say Yes. Tell the child that when you say No you mean No. You are sometimes afraid to lose the love of your children by being strict on them. You are more apt to allow a child to lose love for you, by letting him do as he pleases, than you are in any other way." Naming the Schools The "AFRO" started something a few weeks ago when it suggested that the new junior high school at Lafayette and Madison avenues, be named for William L. Alexander, pastor, builder and statesman. Dr. George F. Bragg urged upon the school board the name of Henry Winter Davis, white, whom he terms the "Maryland Liberator." The Baptists have put up the name of Harvion Johnson. Methodists okey Dr. Johnson also include Alexander and Hiram Watty in the list. The AFRO is the last to regret such public interest in the naming of public schools. To the contrary, it hopes this interest will manifest itself in the determination to see the thing thru. Baltimore has 32 public schools. According to the 1927 directory 22 of them are without names and are identified by numbers merely 102, 105, 113 etc. Those named include Douglass, Danah, Washington Copin, Carnet, Elliott, Coleridge-Taylor, Wheatly, and Lockerman. In other words, schools now bearing numbers only can exhaust the list of names suggested by the several persons or organizations, and ask them to look up 18 additional names. Here's a civic job worthy of Baltimore's sustained interest. Our schools are the only Baltimore schools without names. A christening party is badly needed.

Herskovitz Quizzes Professor Melville Herkosvitz white, assistant Professor of Anthropology at Northwestern University wrote a new book the other day in which he predicted that the American Negro will never be absorbed by the white race. Colored folk, he said, will become stabilized, a new brown skinned race between the black wide-nosed African and the white-marrow-nosed American. AFRO smiled at such a prophecy. It recalled the beauty cultural efforts of many firms who have succeeded in making curly hair straight. Tomorrow it said, these firms will be making skins white. Whereupon Professor Herkosvitz quizzes the AFRO as follows:— Professor Melville Herskovitz white, assistant Professor of Anthropology at Northwestern University wrote a new book the other day in which he predicted that the American Negro will never be absorbed by the white race. Colored folk, he said, will become stabilized, a new brown skinned race between the black wide-nosed African and the white-narrow-nosed American. The APRO smiled at such a prophecy. It recalls the beauty cultural efforts of many firms who have succeeded in making curly hair straight. Tomorrow it said, these firms will be making skins white. Whereupon Professor Herskovitz quizzes the APRO as follows: To the Editor The Afro-American: "Your news story is certainly a careful statement of my published material. As to the editorial, I should like very much to ask one question—Does the APRO-AMERICAN as a "strong race publication" feel that the most desirable thing that can happen to the Negro is for him to pass completely over into the American community?" Dr. Kelly Miller says: If God ever intended the races should not mix. He would have made it impossible for them. If God ever intended the races should not mix. He would have made it impossible for them to do so. (2) If Uncle Sam can absorb 50 million altens of all nations, a few million Negroes will hardly give him indigestion. (3) America is color mad—In a large part of the United States white people are expected to travel in comfort, live on pave stairs, get an education or earn a living wage. (4) Nature never intended the outside cover of a man, bird or an animal to be a hardship To quote Mr. Darrow again, Nature gave Negroes a black skin to better withstand tropical heat. Unfortunately the United States is not in the tropics. (5) Intermarriage is a public contract like buying and selling a lot. If two contracting parties agree, other considerations are their own personal affairs. (6) Frederick Douglass said his mother was colored and his father white and he felt per propriety in marrying women of either race His first wife was colored and his second white (7) Negroes did not start this race mixing and the AFRO does not see why they should be asked to stop it. They can't anyhow. Mr. John-Mitchil, editor of the Richmond Va. Planet, does not agree with these views He is interested in the purity of the Negro race. Maybe he does not realize his job is well night hopeless, so the AFRO won't tell him that Professor Herskovitz estimates that eighty percent of the Negro race in the U. S. are already o mixed Negro, Indian and white blood. Mr. W. A. Plecker white director of the Va State Bureau of Health is another race purist He says, "I know what to do with mixed breeds who are not white and whom the Negroes do not consider black. They are the problem. The true Negro is no problem from the racial stand point, so long as he remains pure. It is need less to say that he has the good will of all well thinking white people. How "good" is the "good will" of Mr. Plecker—not good enough to put a police uniform on a Negro in Richmond or to appoint a colored person as principal of Richmond's Colored High (2) If Uncle Sam can absorb 50 million altens of all nations, a few million Negroes will hardly give him indigestion. (3) America is color mad—In a large part of the United States only white people are expected to vote, travel in comfort, live on paved streets, get an education or carn a living wage. (4) Nature never intended to be a hardship of a man, bird or an animal to be a hardship. To quote Mr. Darrow again Nature gave Negroes a black skin to better withstand tropical heat.

He says, "The true Negro will be wise to know what to do with mixed breeds, who are not white and whom the Negroes do not consider black. They are the problem. The true Negro is no problem from the racial stand point, so long as he remains pure. It is needless to say that he has the good will of all well thinking white people."

Declares This Pastor Replying To the Editor: "Baptists run everything in the way we want to run it, and w do not let it run it less it runs like we want to run it. We have a greater opportunity than any other denomination because there are more of them." So said Rev. L. K. Williams, President of the National Baptist Convention. Bigots and fanatics still flourish despite Christ's commandment that we love another. We have a longer opportunity, however, nor can they any longer enlist the aid of civilized men and women. Our best answer to Dr. Williams is to teach every one to live quietly the religious life as he sees it, cheerfully conceived and practiced, by being man, Jew or Gentile, Catholic or Protestant. If we take the sword of controversy, we may perish by it. Certainly so long as we exhibit tolerance toward others we must expect it from them. We must be courageous to confront against all unrighteousness and sin. The real foe is on our front, not within our ranks. Let us behave as brethren of the same household and practice not only tolerance, which is best is only a political necessity, but that which is our endurement for spiritual history.

But according to the action of the Executive Board, it must be in the administration. The truth is the Executive Board should have reported its findings, as instructed by the majority of the people believe that, the report is being withheld because: First. The Board found that the cause of the students' strike was due to the unfitness of the administration. Of their unwillingness to report that the students were right in their contention and, in refusing to return to their classes, they were the major cause of the inefficiency which they found—not in the student body—but in the administration. The affair should be settled in a special meeting of the Board of Trustees in order to address the general feeling throughout the state is; that the situation is too serious to be allowed to run on till the Commencement; that the people are in sympathy with the students; that they hold the that of the students—if not all of them—will return to the school and work for its success; that if a special meeting of the Board of trustees is not held before theadem, the A.M.

And inasmuch as it has failed to do so, the majority of the people believe that, the report is being withheld because: First, the Board found that the cause of the students' strike was due to the unfitness of the administration. Second, of their unwillingness to report that the students were right in their contention, the Board found that the cause of the students' strike was due to the unfitness of the administration. Third, they wish to cover the dirt and flth and inefficiency which they found—not in the student body—but in the administration. The affair is special, especially the Board of Trustees—at least a majority of them—at once. The general feeling throughout the state is: that the situation is too serious to be allowed to run on till the Commencement, to be allowed to the striking students; that if such a meeting is held that the majority of the students if not all of them—will return to the school and work for its success; that if a special meeting with the striking students, held before the Commencement, the A.

South Carolina Politicians Buy Voles With "Star" corn squirt. Chico Cigars and Virginia Cheese Squirt Ex-Carolina Man In Boston. To the Editor: This week's issue of your paper carries a news item at the issue of your paper that seems to think that Jesus Christ could not have done more for the Negro in South Carolina than the notorious "Mountebank" Tolbert had done. Such a statement, if true, coming from a woman who seems to think that woman can hang his or her head in pity and compassion for such an unfortunate statement, I venture to say was a fifty ten dollar bill. I remember quite well Tolbert and "his" conventions in South Carolina during the time I was a lag living in Columbia. S. C. Well do I recall how freely corn liquor—then popularly called "star" corn—was sold in Georgia and Virginia Cheerots—and, how easy it was to get spending change in and around Tolbert's conventions, in which he and his brazen henchmen were "warred" to the highest bidder, if not the candidate who financed Tolbert's convention back home, got the "voteless" South Carolina's delegations' support for the long will respectable newspapers allow this disgraceful condition to continue without a protest and an attempt to expose these "Mountebanks"? cannot make me believe that if these "big powers" that be and politicians were not given a consideration commensurate with the work done by them, that segregation and discrimination are not being tolerated in governmental departments in Washington.

How long will respectable newspapers allow this disgraceful condition to continue without a protest and an attempt to expose these "Mountainbank" You cannot make me believe that if these "big powers" that be and politicians were not given the power to be done by them, that segregation and discrimination would or could exist and does in the vantage point of our nation.

Times) If the movement in the first Illinois District to send a Negro Congressman to Washington in place of Representative Madden is successful with a mission more serious than a mere emphasis of the presence in Congress of a member of his race. It is the servance of Negro Congressmen in the Fifteenth Amendment which is to be his cause. The manager of one of the candidates has stated it forcefully as follows: "The servance is not whether the Eighteenth Amendment should be enforced, but whether one should be made to make the Fifteenth Amendment effective in spirit and letter. It is my duty to help Jim-crow cars and disfranchising would shortly disappear if every citizen was protected in the exercise This manifesto has aroused Mr. Madden's Negro constituents to such an extent that many candidates of the party think the Chicago political reporters that they will split their own vote and make it possible for Mr. Madden to go back. But their enterprise the same solidarity with which they support the white boxes of Chicago, the next Congress might find in its ranks a citizen whose political opinions are most astesthetic to the South than his color.

Grit your teeth, if you have any, and say what others have done you can do. Our course is divided into ten separate lessons that aay five year old child can master, and as a extra graduation gift we are giving free of charge a milded green swallowtail coat. We first thought of giving the child no minister has two pairs of pants. Lesson one explains how to get the most out of a chicken leg without feeling self-conscious; and lesson two gives us the cracks to cracks to the lady's aid. The third lesson deals with "The Juvenile in the Church" and shows twelve simple methods of extracting personal information. Lesson four shows how to palm an onion to bring tears to the eyes making an appeal for the heathen.

(repeat). “A man on the Inside”. Oh! My good sisters and brothers, I would call you ladies and gentlemen, but I know you far too well for that, there are big things in this text, a whale for instance.” “It is had for you to conceive of a man living for 40 years in the belly of a whale, but when we recall that there were no calendars in those days, it doesn’t seem so unbelievable.” “Daniel did not know how long he was staying in the belling of the whale, so he did not worry until he got out. What does this teach, my good friends? It teaches that if you refuse to worry everything will come out all right.” "How was it, you ask, if Daniel was confined in the belly of the whale. Simple, my friends, simple. The bread rained down like any other rain. The rain formed streams and wended its way to the sea. How often have we seen a whale colliding sea Weil, Daniel ate the rolls. The good book says, you may contend, that man cannot live on bread alone. But we had plenty of cider to drink. Do not the Scriptures say that the whale was a female whale? Well, Daniel was ill. There is some dispute among theologists, my friends, as to whether it was Daniel or Jonah who was confined in the belly of the whale. Some say that Jonah was a circus. I know it was Daniel in the whale, because Daniel made a great prohet, a whale gushes oil—but if he had not speculated in oil? You perhaps wonder how Moses could have built a great big ark all alone, but he was aided by an angel that was where we get the name arghaphras. "Some folks think that it was Moses who went into Egypt, but we know that he caused the took his twin brother with him, they were inseparable. That brother's name was neither, and until today people say neither this nor that." How did Daniel get out of the belly of the whale? Moses took the whale on board the ark to keep it from falling into the seasick and couched Daniel un, Daniel was a big hick and that is how hiccups were invented.

One Negro In Heaven Mormons Tell Pickens BY WILLIAM PICKENS We have heard a lot of the excuses made by the mormons who colored "brethren" as equals in their churches, but the excuse which the Mormons use and which they call the "cake" in Salt Lake City, "takes the cake": "Are there any colored members in the Mormon Church?" we asked. Are they? Why are Negroes thus barred from full sainthood and entry into the holiest? Well, this is the cake-taking explanation: There was once a gentle, whom Milton sat Satan, got so ambulent as to raise a rebellion to try to overthrow God and rule; he sought volunteers to set out to raise hell in heaven. According to the Mormons, God must have been pretty hard-pressed, for he sought volunteers to be known universe. The white people proudly set with God; but DAY BY DAY Studying The Week's News News of the week shows that this world of quirs, still struggling against the flesh and the Devil, is slowly wending its way towards U-Town. Up in New York city, Phil Edwards, cracker spinner of New York University, comes down to win with a gallery roaring with asplause because Johnny McCue, white starter, pulled him back from his mark and won. He won the handicap and white students applauded him and HISSED McCUE BECAUSE THEY WERE WORN BY THE DEVIL ORDRED RUNNER A RAW DEAL. That protest against unfairness because of color happened in New York last Saturday, in a room of day young white men and women, with their growing spirit of fair play, will hiss and protest when a new deal; when a church prostitutes human brotherhood and closes its doors against black sinners; when white manufacturer fails to offer an opportunity to earn by merit their bread and butter because they are colored. Our Government And Unemployment From out California way comes a representative, of sugar beet growers urging the government in Washington to lift the ban on ican immigration, used in the war on drugs and exploitation, may come in and gather the beet crop. With the largest number of unemployed laborers in this country since 1923, and hundreds of thousands seeking work in industries that American citizens might take care of the beet problem. They would have no difficulty in getting farm labor in the South or West if the Government will spend $200,000,000 on the 18th Amendment and goes out of its way to protect exploiters of labor. would spend half that amount to enforce the 14th and 15th, which basically are different from the 18th. But the labor cloud is not without its silver lining. In the Pennsylvania coal fields Congressmen are investigating the struggle between coal owners and the ORGANIZED COAL OWNERS have decided to destroy the ORGANIZATION of the workers and control wakes. In the Pennsylvania fields some of the workers have interested by the Andrew Mellon interests and the Colorado fields, some of which are controlled by Rockefeller, colored men are learning the principle of the labor class to resist and going to the strike, null. AT PRESENT ORGANIZED LABOR IS THE ONLY EFFECTIVE MEANING OF ORGANIZATION BY ORGANIZED CAPITALISM and the workers movement throughout the world. The workers movement has equalization of human opportunities and wiping out of racial lines. It won't always be possible for rich bords of the earth to squeeze the heart and souls out of men and women in on economic vi while in an little pathetic philanthropy. Capital Punishment Sometimes Good Men and women who do not believe in capital punishment might consider the recent murder of a murderer electrified last Friday in North Carolina for killing a man. Shortly before his last walk to the church, Delvin told ministers of the gospel that he had also killed another man, and like the "thief of the cross" made his peace with God before leaving this world. In the shadow of death men are in earnest and if there is a Heaven, under such conditions, they must fortify to get there. Life term nor other no punishment could have lifted the soul of Delvin to the ciefts of the futural seriousness of the actual death, few years more on this earth behind bars would have meant nothing besides the possibilities of eternity. And if there is a Heaven, Delvin is in a much better condition than many of us who have experienced exchanges with Satan until it is too late. When A Woman Loses Her Battle "The new freedom" of women is not such freedom as it may appear, if a letter, if a letter who signs her name "One Who Knows" gives a general viewpoint. "Because," writes this woman evidently from a bleeding heart, "we can strike back with more freedom with the weapons which men have always used; because we are becoming more resilient, because we are disabling time worn moral attitudes and conventions, is no reason to assure ourselves that we are winning in that most vital of all battle," she says "everyday," she says "one of the prettiest, best dressed and most refined girls of our community told me that at most dances now she had to dance closer and her arms tighter to get dance bids." "In both married and single life," the vital struggle for women is evidently more and more they are resorting to artificial artifacts to attract men and more heartening means to hold them as husbands after they are married. "Speaking of more freedom," she says, "you can't go into any gath- the over-cautious colored brother, while not siding with Satan, proclaimed, as Bert Williams used to put it: "I am neutral!" Well, Satan lost, thenceforth to be known as "The Devil." God won, good help! God won, no doubt, the Negro's not become a "real saint"; he is still somewhat "neutral." He cannot enter the Temple and he cannot go to Heaven, but he has been known to get into Heaven in the history of creation, and he was the "Body Servant" of Brigham Young. He sees, this Negro was a "good servant," and Brigham Young, like all "good white folks," was somewhat part of the Negro, and inued him to let him.

Fl. Times before the Palm Beach. So many south shores have so many white men working in the south. At the same time, never before in the history of the south, laying in any direction, for that matter, has there be so little "common" labor" needed. This is the day when ditch digging is done with machinery. Flowing, planting and reaping are done with machinery. If the Negro is better off in the north, he is better off in the south, him with machinery. Indeed it may be that he is being displaced with it.

"Chicago After Midnight", an underworld melodrama depicting the terrific battle of Chicago police against the lawless element, comes to the Regent Monday for a stay of three. The city of Chicago has been in the limelight for the past few years because of the boldness of its criminals, and the newspapers have given only a few details of the situation. The photoplay, which has Ralph Iince and Helen Jeremy Eddy in the star roles, portrays the habits and customs of the underworld and the night life of the city's pleasure seekers. Gunmen, cabaret performers, and society leaders are all shown in the parts they play in promoting gang life. In "Chicago After Midnight" you will see the terrific and turbulent romance of the underworld. Its frenzied cabaret life! The roar of its gunmen's gats! The deadly prowling of its gentlemen gangsters! The clamoring ring of the policeman's nightstick! Its Babylonic revels! A frail boy's voice rising out of the murky depths of midnight crime, shrilling the innocence of its possessor accused of murder, believed only by the girl he loves! What chance has a simple linen nightgown with long sleeves and a high neck against a sheer silk creation with no sleeves and less neck? Not as much as a believer in Santa Claus has in Hollywood, according to Clara Bow, the "It" girl who stars on the Regent screen, Thursday and Friday in "Get Your Man". Wives who suddenly discover that their husbands are just husbands and no longer lovers might, however, take a tip from Clara. One is certain to get plenty of heart flutters when the star goes thru the bedroom scenes in the sequence which winds up the story. Her negligee appearance is the hit of the show. There are still people who want to place the women in the background but the female will come to the front. Not only does "Get Your Man" feature a woman, but the photoplay was directed by a member of the "weaker sex", Dorothy Arzoer. The plot carries Miss Bow and her leading man, Charles Rogers, into a wax works museum. There they are in the midst of mechanical figures which execute historical events, coronations, imprisonments and murders. "Three's A Crowd "Three's A Crowd", a comedy feature, will be the headliner Saturday. In addition the theatre has arranged to show several short subjects and the film news. Coming Billy Dove in "American Beauty", the super-attraction is coming soon to the Regent. As a child Billy Howard, the girl of my means, she finds it a task to bluff her way into society, and wear the reiment of the very rich. You have seen "Beau Geste".

Md.—South's Biggest and Best Weekly. the big attractions for its patrons, will show "Beau Sabreur" in the near future. One thousand horsemen take part in one of the thrilling battle scenes. Royal "Love", "Foreign Devils" "Love", a vivid drama of old Russia before the revolution and starring Greta Garbo and John Gilbert comes to the Royal Theatre, Monday for a stay of four days. The stars will be remembered as the team who scored in "Flesh and the Devil". Gilbert, as the romantic Count Vronsky, wears the silendidly tailored uniforms of the officers of the Imperial Guard of Russia.

Baltimore women will want to see Mabryne will be beautiful and beautiful valiant of the wealthy in the palmy days of Russia's now defunct aristocracy. The actress plays the role of Anna Karemia, the character made famous in the novel by Tolstoi, from which the picture was adapted. As Anna, she gives up her husband and child in order to bask in the love of Vronsky. The actress wears reproductions of the crown jewels of Russia in the film. The originals are scattered over Europe but members of the old aristocracy were employed in the making of "Love" and aided the jewel designers in planning the gems. One prince and two Russian generals who fled the country during the overthrow of the Czar's government, take part in the photoplay. Among the interesting scenes are reproductions of the Russian castles, and a famous old cathedral in Petrograd. The Easter services as were conducted by the late Czar and his aristocratic followers is pictured in the film. The story of the Boxer, uprising in China a quarter century ago has been written into a screen play by Peter B. Kyne and will be presented to Royal patrons. Friday and Saturday as "The "Foreign Devils", a Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer picture starring Tim McCoy. As you already know from history, China was closed territory to white nations seeking trade there. The Chinese rulers banded together to run all whites from their country and brought the marines and warships of nearly a score of nations upon them. Many foreigners bit the dust before the sword of the enraged Orientals and the white legations were besieged until they could be rescued by forces from their own countries. One of the features of "Foreign Devils" that will appeal to church members is the display of loyalty by the Chinese Christians to their foreign friends. While the Boxers were storming the quarters many Chinese died fighting with the white missionaries and business people.

H. Dudley, veteran showman and T. O. B. A. official, in a statement made to the press Monday. Dudley charges that imitation and lack of originality are responsible directly for the situation as he sees it. He says in part: Only Three Stars "Of course we have several good actors and actresses but not stars. Most of our best talent is playing white vaudiele circuits. Many started on the T. O. B. A. "By the way I overlooked one great actor that Charles Gilpin. He earned in 'Emperor Jones' and gained fame in this role, but could not get anything else that could follow this, as the character of Emperor Jones just fitted him. Just why some or the same producer did not put Gilpin in another show I am unable to say. I think he could have made good in another vehicle properly cast- Why haven't we more stars? Can you answer this? Here is my idea of it. These actors of todav are not original enough and do not study. Anything the comedian says that draws a laugh, he says forever. If another comedian hears it — and sees it goes over, then he uses the same thing — instead of trying to get something old. **Initiate Old-Timers** "Most of the comedians of today are trying to limit some of the public and cannot put it over. The public is always ready and willing to make a star if he can deliver the goods; but he must certainly bring the public something new and original." HERE AND THERE HERE AND THERE A stage production of Oscar Wilde's classic, "Salome," will take place in New York, March 8th, by the Negro Art Theatre group. A radio version of the piece will be a song-writer, formerly of Washington, D. C., died at the American Hospital, Paris, France, February 18th.

One of the portraits included in the present showing, "The Mulatress", won the Frank G. Logan medal and prize in the 1925 Chicago Art Show. Synopsis, another of the exhibition, won the Eisenhart prize, and the showing a portrait of the artist's mother, entitled "Mending Socks", is also a part of the exhibit. The last mentioned was displayed in Newark's Museum exhibition last March. Mr. Motley is said to be originally from New Orleans. La. He is said to have some French mixture in his make-up on one side. Coupled this, is said that they lowns thus his veins some of the blood of a pygmy tribe of the Dark Continent.

On the singles, the Kentucky Rise, and Old Kentucky Home, several persons, mostly women, in the audience could be seen to be crying. I heard a white American beside me say: "Oh, they must be Southerners." THINGS THEATRICAL By OBIE McCOLLUM Eddie Refutes "Uncle Dud" S. H. Dudley, old-timer in show business, the owner and official of the T. O. B. A., came out last week with a signed article in which he criticized the race stage for sameness in shows and relying upon popular dances to put them over. Dudley stated that some producers simply go in front of the rehearsing performers and tell them what dances or bits In a letter to the "page" this week, Eddie Le Mons, Baltimore comic and producer, takes exception to the opinion expressed by Dudley Jenkins in patrons' letters. "Dud say that the doesn't review all the shows. He said that the shows open with the Charleston and end with the Blackbottom, and use the same old situation, which I said before, is the trouble about the T. O. B. A. The agent never leaves the office to view a show. I say what goes on different shows, and this "Dashin' Dina" where no Charleston, Black Bottom and Blues are used, and only talent counts"? Incidentally, "Dashin' Dina" gave two mid-night performances for white audiences at the Palace, Norfolk, and the bumbo for several hours on the white press. The Virginian-Pilot and Norfolk Landmark said of the troupe: "The show Thursday night was witnessed by the entire Marcus show and many of the Zeigfield Folles performers, including the celebrated Sharp, Ruth St. Denise and Sharp." "Miss St. Denis said: 'I enjoyed every minute of the show, and the dancing, in parts, was wonderful. "On the colored stage one sees and hears the original spirit of humor that is much lacking among the white comedians." "When asked what she thought of Peg Bates, the one-legged dancer, Miss St. Denis said: "He is nothing less than wonderful and, without doubt, his name will be on Broadway before long. Out or just such shows as he on the stage stars of the future." Whether the whites like the bunch merely because it is colored is problematical, but "Dina" impressed the Nordics. How About "Us?" Press reports from New York say that the conductor, Toscaniini, who will direct the New York Philharmonic Orchestra in five concerts, receives $10,000 for each appearance with the orchestra this season. Here in Baltimore, it is said that the seats for the city's opera season have been sold; two weeks before the date of the performance. Out in Detroit last week, Florence Gay-Talbert, soprano, who sang in Italian grand opera last season, was heard by "a small, but appreciative audience." Out in Chicago a new symphony orchestra, with musicians recruited from the professions, trades and also the stockyards, is attempting to raise $5,000 for its first season's budget. In New York, announcement is made that a native opera in English will be produced for a tour. All race people will be used. Unfortunately, the economic status of a people has much to do with the advancement of its art, and symphony orchestras, concert singers, opera performers, realists, small artists unless they are patronized [arrays by the whites. Micheaux Down But Not Out According to the papers, Oscar Micheaux, pioneer in race photoplayings, filled a bankruptcy petition for his film corporation. The interesting part about the news is not that the producer has "flopped" or that race pictures will get a slight set-back. The producer is still seeking bookings for his pictures and is going ahead with plans for recovering. Evidently he believes in the slogan, "man may be down but he's never ok." African Exhibit NEW YORK CITY — Paintings made by May Mott-Smith during her expropation of Africa, more extended than ever made before by a woman, are being exhibited at the Art Center.

The following program was rendered. It's leap year! Be careful! The girls have seen Clara Bow in GET YOUR MAN and they're running wild! CLARA BOW IN "Get Your Man" WITH CHARLES ROGERS a International Picture IN THREE'S A CROWD PAIGIS, France.—It is reported that Josephine Baker is in Berlin, where she has gone, after being refused a permit to appear on the stage by the Viennese authorities, and documents were made by the French papers on the incident, Clement Vautel, leading columnist, calling to mind that the noted dancer, Mistinguett "was struck with the same ostracism." says Vautel. "The sacred union reigns in Austria. All the political parties, from the nationalist to the socialists at last find themselves in accord about something, the black peril must be fought. "To speak truly, however, this peril is not black; it is really coffee and milk. Because it is Josephine Baker that is in question. This vedette having been engaged by the director of a Viennese music hall, the leaders of all the parliamentary factions have demanded of Mgr. Seipel, president of the Viennese music hall, a desistrable, a request, not very gallant, but well prepared to be heard by an ecclesiastic. Josephine Baker will therefore not appear dressed only in a couple of bananas in that city, which boasts it is another Paris." Celebrated Legs The writer goes on to point out that similar restrictions would be true on the English and American stage, and adds "That is how in Eastern Europe, the censors reprove the viennese leg in Paris, saying to Josephine: 'Hide those breasts that we cannot bear to look at.' Vienna, home of the opera, and the waltz, is anxious to keep out jazz. Roland Hayes is still a warm favorite there. Sissle Writes Song Hits LONDON. — Noble Sissle, writer and producer of "Shuffle Along" and "Chocolate Dandies", is scoring a hit in the London music hall.

Johnson gained considerable publicity in 1900 for his feat of running and horses. He outran one horse, covering the 42 miles between Cripple Creek and Colorado Spring between two and nine o'clock p. m. STAGE REVIEWS STAGE REVIEWS ROYAL "Tokio," the stage offering at the Royal Theatre, brings several excellent individual performances to the house's patrons. While lacking in the smoothness and finish that marked many Irvin G. Miller's show past season, it's the array of silent patrons over enough humor, dancing and singing to make a customer feel that he has enjoyed himself. "Jota," a shapely miss who does some Oriental dances with a sinuous grace, and swings more freely into a god old American jazz number, is headlined. Her work appeal to the matinee matinee audience. "Jota" and the tote (the name is Cook) Louise it not a good stage name) knows her wiggies and easily wins her audience. Emmett (Gang) Anthony, blackface funster, emulates Col. Charles Linderburgh by attempting a flight from some part of Georgia tq Tokio, the capital of Japan. As a matter of fact, he really doesn't get up in the air; but "Gang does" with good music. His burlesque of the "Blue Heaven" is one of the highlights of the bill. John Churchill, doubles throughout the show, appearing at his best in "Swiss Yodel", "Yesterday" as a duo-voice number, and "Used To Be Sugar Blues". Sledge and Jones, fast stepping pair, stop-stoppers Monday, in two dress neatly and work under cork. Their act could easily take the lead on most bills if it were given more finish. They have the material. Edna Barr, who also manages "Tokio", is pleasing in her role of leading艺生, the Price Verger, is well received in a routine which runs from taps to toe dancing. The Mikado Entertainers, four Japanese musicians, prove themselves to be artists in their line. Gladys Robinson goes over well with two cornet solos. Earl Gray is director of Tokio's剧院 are Wealthy Davis, Billy Hayes, Clio Johnson, Frances Gray, Ula Chicago, Sara Mabrey and Dorothy Jenkins. BURY ACTRESS' MOTHER NEW YORK.

Blanch Calloway and the Regal Steppers, who are regular fixtures here, are easy to look upon as well as belay, hard workers. Worthy and Thompson, two finished dancers, are working all through the show as waiters. They give the folks an idea of the way a New York club waiter would serve his guest, and has this team personality, say. In the speciality the boys turn in loose and the house uses with them. It, however, took a small chap to be the real feature and show stopper. However, Fess and his Jazz-Joy boys let loose an outburst of music that set the house alarm. **GRAND** This week brings "Mandy Green from New Orleans" here, under Col.

Sammy Robinson Who is that boy who has been running lap after lap for the last four years? He is a group of interested spectators at the Ascot speedway one day last week. Upon inquiry the reply was "Why Sunny from Atlantic City, New Jersey." Upon investigation we ascertained that Smiling was Sammy Robinson, of 2009 Blaine avenue, Atlantic City, entitled in the press by the City Daily Press. Sammy is known to everyone in Atlantic City as the champion athlete of the city. A baseball, football, basketball player, runner, boxer, and ice skater, in his disposition that is making him a favorite at the training camp.

Followin VIENNA. — "Joe" Baker's costume, bviensna, is the subject of a heated discussion Saturday in the Austrian Parliament. The law-making body is attempting to decide whether the dancer will be allowed to perform in the Austrian stage. The opposition is not because of color or nationality, according to Dr. Jarzebake, leader of the dancers in the near nude. The physician contended that Jo's dances are devoid of art. It became clear that the dancers had a dolorous manner of paying her 100,000 shillings to see mude dances when a hundred thousand workers are out of employment. "There are of your friends see the show there," she ploughed one deputy. Listening In WHAT CAUSES RADIO NOISES The radio for almost any radio noise must be placed upon something static usually plays the goat. Recent discoveries by radio experts have determined that static is one of the most annoying things. If She is curling her hair or Mother is getting the family laundry ironed their electrical appliances may be the cause of the buzzing noises. The static is also a sign, dial telephones, transformers, lighting plants, and whatnots may be the offenders. 'FLO' MILLS ASSOC.

POLICE BRING PEACE TO UNION BAPTIST MEET Fight Over Proposal To Buy New Church Ends In General Disorder VOTE AGAINST PASTOR ANNOUNCED 176-135 Meeting To Oust Or Retain Dr. Over Set For March 8th Union Baptist Church monthly meeting ended in a near riot which occasioned police interference Thursday night. At a recent meeting the church voted not to buy the Madison Avenue M. E. Church, Lafayette and Madison avenues, upon which a committee headed by the pastor, Dr. David E. Over, had already paid $2,000 monthly white attorneys, mediated against union Baptist Church to compel them to carry out the contract, to pay $3,000 more on the purchase price within 60 days, proceeds from the sale of the present church, and attorneys' fees of $535 due for execution of the contract, Dr. C. Oeld reported this to the membership. Against the pastor's wishes, the meeting Thursday voted 176 to 135 to take fighting of this suit out of his hands and place it in the hands of the trustee board of which Joseph P. Kaufman was chairman. Satisfied this test vote that the Anti-Over faction was in the majority, a resolution was offered declaring the pubit vacant. Dr. Over ruled the resolution out of order, declaring that no matter affecting the tenure of office of the pastor could be considered in the meeting, nor any meeting, before which it had not been given two weeks' notice. The word "broke loose, in the language of one of the sisters standing near the pulpit. Friends and foes of the pastor surged from one side of the church to the other, and for fully one hour hurled invectives at each other as Dr. Over sat silently in the chair to prevent further action of the resolution. **Police Called** During this period, heated remarks brought on near physical encounters in several groups, some one telephoned to the Nothwestern Police station and three officers entered and made their way to the front of the church. Officers, however, on both sides disclaimed responsibility for the phone call to the station and finding no Independent Or PRESENTS TO AND THE GEN A LEGAL RESI Independent Order of St. Luke PRESENTS TO ITS MEMBERS AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC A LEGAL RESERVE DIVISION EFFECTIVE JANUARY 3, 1928 WHILE Assembled Convention at RICH 1927, the Right Wor- pendent Order of Saint L creating a Legal Reserve I serves based upon the Am- mortality, with interest at half per cent per annum.

A few minutes later Sergeant Hintzelbergh with five officers entered. At first the sergeant advised Dr. Over to allow the motion on the matter of declaring the pulpit vacant to be voted on. by the congregation. But for the parallel argument between sides it was agreed that Dr. Over would make an announcement setting Thursday, March 8, as a date upon which members would vote on the resolution. Blames Past-r Dr. Over was not only blamed in the report for this situation, but it was stated that he was acting with owners of the white church to force the purchase. Dr. Over was the entire matter over to the trustee board, with power to spend as much as necessary to defend the suit. Dr. Over and his adherents opposed the resolution in an effort to force the body limit the amount of money the trustees could spend. He was voted down. Legal Action Looms The trustees have employed the law firm of Hawkins and McMechen, and A. B. Koger to defend the suit. They claim that Union Baptist authorized no committee to make any such contract as that which church owners claim they have. They claim that Dr. Over and one of the officers have taken this course to compel them to sell the present church building, which was "good enough for Harvey Johnson and is good enough for us." Harvey Johnson A noticeable aspect of the meeting Thursday night was the constant reference to the late Dr. Harvey Johnson, founder of the Jewish School, to discuss his spirit came to life, many declaring that the present building was a shrine to their dead pastor and that it should not be sold. New Slant A new slant on the purchase was the claim by some members that a new church should be offered the present Union Baptist Church, so that it might be closer to Bethel Church, across the street.

One brother has often received a love note inter-derived only for the eyes of the other, and each has been able to explain the situation by the simple explanation "I think you mistake me for my brother."

T. Jackson, owner, accord- ing to information given out by Taylor, here, Wednesday. Mr. Jackson stopped over in this city enroute to Birmingham, following the joint session of the National and Eastern Leagues in Philadelphia, last week, and at that time broached the matter to Manager Taylor. Since leaving the city he has telegraphed Ben, asking him to come down and assume management of the Alabama city. In discussing the matter, Mr. Taylor made it known that Rossiter has allowed him to use his own discretion in the matter and has placed no obstacles in his way should he choose to accept. As yet, Ben has made no definite decision in the matter and was giving it serious consideration. Acceptance of the post, he said, would necessitate his transferring his household effects to Birmingham, this matter seeming to play an important part in his acceptance of the offer, which it is understood carries a substantial inward responsibility. Mr. Taylor, in salary and responsibility, Mrs. Taylor in the local public school system and "Ben" must take that into account as well as the education of his boys in Birmingham schools.

Dick Seymour, inimitable St. "G" guard, was on the side lines with a badly lacerated knee. Gloomy Conch Bradford is saving him for the championship. Unfortunately, Lee, the guiding genius of the Tuxedo, boys was forced to leave two of his regulars behind, but the boys that filled their shoes gave a good account of them. The team, which seemed Lady Luck turned her back on them when they tried for the basket.

Friday night, 19-11. Their fight is for the junior championship title. The Freshmen were out to avenge their defender of the hands of the Unknown cagers last week, but their victory was no walkaway. The score was 8-7 for Morgan at half-time. The yearlings caked 9 field goals, while the Unknowns were able to tally only 5. Both teams had three tries at the basket from the foul line, and both were successful in only one of these tries. Fast passing and close guarding matched the entire game, with the Unknowns' short cross-cross working slower than usual. Newton, Unknown guard, seemed slowed up and Robinson. Unknown captain, did not take as many chances at the basket as usual. "Tee" Johnson opened. Boy, Frost star in the game with the Yearhour lastings last Monday night, was again the luminary for Morgan, caring 4 field goals for high point honors. Robinson, high score for three double-deckers and one foul, "Babe" Jones was not trying much of a shooting game for the Frost, while Bose, of the Unkowns, handicapped by the coolness, could score three from the score from the Floor. West played a good floor game, scoring four of the Freshman's points, while Tucker, in the game for a moment, caged one, Mackey, an unknown guard, was active all through the Freshman's admittance at scoring.

The Afro-American—Baltimore, Md.—South's Biggest and Best Weekly. Preliminary Advertised .. 8:00 p. m. Preliminary Started .. 8:50 p. m. Main Game Started .. 10:20 p. m. Lady Luck, that fickle dame of destiny, refused to smile on the Monumental Elks, Friday night, at the New Albert, and the Morgan Bear, surprised by their anter- tled opponents in the second half, were forced to the limit to win, 31-27. Each team had pre- vious victories, the victory Morgan the series. The victory was the fourth out of five starts for the tired Monganites within the short space of a week, and called for all the reserve energy that the Bears had a 17 to builder at the end of the first stanza, closed up the gap to 4 points in the second by some uncanny gunning, and would have forced the college boys into an overtime struggle had Lady Luck smiled on them during the allowed two spectacular baskets, caged by Simpson and "Teeny" Brown, to remain inside the hoop. But after revolting tanzingly about the upper edge, the ball twice rolled out of the basket. The antiered aggregation outscored Morgan from the floor, caging 13 field goals to 12 for the Bears, but the Bears caged seven fouls to one for the Elks. The Elks only got four chances from the four, one while Morgan had made good one, while Morgan had was successful in seven of these. That Second Half It was that second half that gave Morgan the scare of her kife. "Teeny" Brown found his gunning eye and nipped one early. "Snap" Brown found half for Clarke, snared one and "Seraph" retaliated. "Rapp" Wheatley, lumbering down side court, grinned, and plopped one thru the nets Jack Spencer, "Lanky" and "Rapp" checked off six points for the Morgan machine and then the Everybody Shoots And here the entire Elks team began a gunning spree that was almost fateful for Morgan. "Scrapy," Bill Martin and Simpson gunned one each, and Herb Keller hit the bullets twice. Morgan's team accounted for 98-25 Morgan's favor, with four minutes to play. Sheffey retired in favor of "Pinky" Clarke, who fought to stave off the rally. "Teeny" and Simpson gunned two pretty baskets but the ball was not rolled off. A four goal, made by Morgan and a sensational mid-court shot by "Teeny" ended the scoring activities and brought peace to the Morgan breast. Lanky Morgan scored for 16 of Morgan's points, while "Teeny" and "Scrapy" Brown were guilty of mobbing 8 points each. ELKS (2) G. F. P. T. Brown, rf. 4 0 0 Clarke, rf. 1 0 1 S.

But having only one arm, somehow doesn't seem to damn Earl, rather, it has inspired him to harder practice and great development until today, after playing with the team for five years, he is considered an ace. In an accident when he was five years old cost young Purnell his left arm. He kept in school, nevertheless and in 1924 graduated from Durham public school and immediately uttered Central High School. Four brothers and one sister, none outstandingly athletic, inspired Earl to enter athletic competition and he chose jumping and basketball as his specialties. He became a member of the Peerless Club and by his hard and consistent playing, earned himself a regular track as forward. He kept up his track prefectly too, and in 1922 won the 220 in the junior competition at the Meadowbrook games and in 1926 won it in competition at the McOach playground. On the basketball court Earl is on his knees. His mates as any normal player would be and they'll pass to him with the same swiftness that they would be anyone else. Earl dribbles nicely and receives passes by catching the ball on his chest and dropping it to the floor for a dribble. He can guard effectively too, and seldom foils an opponent. He played with the team recently, withington being an unrivalable imminent there. "Shoot, Earl!" his teammates cry, and they automatically look for a basket. Due to illness, young Purtell, who now but 20 years old, has been forced from the game during the past few weeks but may get back into the game before he is to get into the championship series with the Briscoe five in Philadelphia. Saturday. In addition he plans on entering the Junior Olympics of the Mendowbrook gamse in the spring and hopes to carry of a prize again in the 220. Athletes with two arms might cell phone games with a group of youth, who under physical handicap, has attained merited popularity. VIAYAS TOP CHEYNEY STEELTON, Pa.—The Cheesy business, after putting up a some house, has become a record and accrued to the Vista courts, by a 29 to 10 score, here Friday night. BLUEFIELD, W. Ya. — Fighting to keep aloft their tradition of never having lost a Founder's Day game, the Bluefield Institute cagers, with their powerful passing system working almost to perfection, pulled away from the Howard Bison in the last five minutes of play here, Friday night, and won 27 to 18. The "Big Blues" consider the victory sweet compensation for their three-point loss to Howard two weeks ago. Blues' Passing Baffles Bluefield started off with a rush and after two minutes of brilliant passing, Drew scored from beneath the basket, being followed by two neat shots by Jasper Brown. Howard soon got going and ran up enough points to be leading 12-10 at half time. At the beginning of the second half the Blues again opened up their lead, taking most of the scoring. They were never heeded after that. Captain Coates played best for Howard, gunning three field goals and dropping in two free throws. Brown and Buford led the scoring attack of the Blues with Drew and Hayden tallying twice from the floor. These latter two offered a defense that the Bisons could not penetrate. Holding a three-point lead in the second half, the Bluefield team began pulling the ball, sucking the Howard guards down the floor, and thus permitting Buford to slip away for three baskets that put his team definitely in the lead.

Mr. Watson says in a "Had the president been so disposed, this matter could have been acted upon at that meeting."

Armstrong Hi Used 22 Players In Dunbar Game Four Teams And Two Subs Helped Tech Beat Rivals New Athletic Policy Which Does Not Seek To De- velop "Stars" Explained By School Head In a recent issue of THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, the Sports Editor, in his "Reflector", bewailed the fact that in the first Dunbar Armstrong basketball contest, of the current season, Armstrong used the unprecedented number of twenty-two players. A word on the Armstrong athletic policy becomes timely. Not To Develop Stars The present aim in athletics at Armstrong is not to develop stars, or restrict the playing to a few out- standing athletes, but to expose as many boys as possible to the positive benefits of playing games. Consequently, we look upon sports at Armstrong not as a means of vaping cover- ship, but rather as a means of furnishing adequate relief from the tension of life, providing group soli- darity and co-operation through team-work, and emphasizing the many virtues of playing a hard, clean, fair and square game. G. DAVID HOUSTON Seven Ideals Every activity in Armstrong is built around a character play ram embracing the worthy ideals of honesty, commitment, punctuality, and language. Neither winning fabulous championships nor bequeathing to fame the iron men of a vainted athletic system is the goal of our football team program, though winning is naturally an incentive to successful performance. This is the reason we did not let our football team join us in competition with the Tide-water Conference. The ideals enumerated represented the selection of a joint committee of teachers and students are co-ordinated with such schools as the characteristic features of the Armstrong Technical Hi School. Our sports serve merely as one means of putting into operation our character skills. Business of Youth Is Play Boys are encouraged to participate in the sports. We realize that the real business of the youth who is involved in our program, the high school youth can get as much training from sports for his present and future social adjustments as he can from strong information and experience to vanish after his next examinat Since the development of true manhood is inseparably connected with the strength, we are appealing to numbers and not to a few who may monopolize such renown as may result from their opportunity to perform. Inappropriate boys are hippopotamus, in ever increasing numbers, to sports; and the one big job that our coaches have is to relate these boys to sports, to teach them to play, to any squad are as severe as will be found in any educational institution in the country. Non-passing scholarship drops as the number of outstanding his athletic ability is, he must first satisfy the standards of the classroom; and the so-called minor subjects are embarrass him as a result. If a boy" fails in any advisory period (six weeks), he is kept off the squash, therefore, fall on Friday, take a "make-up" examination on Monday, and return to the squash on Tuesday. Once the boy has passed the squash, the boy passes in his uniform for the entire period. Only a passing grade at the end of the semester changes his status. An Armstrong teacher's field is always a single team. Teacher May Withdraw Boy. Moreover, every teacher enjoys the right to withdraw a boy, at any time, from the class. He conduct, or absence from class, or indifference to his work. The names of the squads are posted; and all that any teacher" has to do in the boy and order him to turn in his uniform, following up the complaint with a notice to the coach, that the boy is not in the squash. The complaining teacher is absolute in the matter. As a result of this policy, our athletes understand the only conditions under which they can play and their response is wonderful. Boys who are on the athletic sounds, or orchance in the glee club, or in the orchestra are the least troublesome boys in the team, which is presented for mismeaners. It is refreshing to note how the athletes respond to their classroom obligations. Had Flitty On Squad About fifty boys constitute the team, but scholarship ratings and other mishaps reduced the sound to twenty-two. These twenty-two boys practiced faithfully and were rewarded by the concord gave them. There comes a thrill to the heart of every boy who is privileged to represent his school in the presence of the "gratitude, valour, and justice" players any game, the policy is to use as many boys as the situation may justify. I Use Twenty-Two Players The second team started the game, leaving the team with them 5-1. The first team replaced them, making the contest so uneven that the result was inevitable.

J. — The crowning of a new champion in Men's Singles and the return to First Ten ranking or for notable features of the 1927 rating of the American Tennis Association, released for publication this week by J. Mercer Burrell, Secretary. This year's ratings will be of more than ordinary interest to the men who that the official rating scale adopted by the A.T. A has been used by the Committee. In this scale, tournaments are given a certain importance, their importance, beginning with the Nationals and continuing on through to club tournaments. Men's Singles "Ted" Thompson, the 1925 National Champion, staged a come-back and has ousted Eyre Saitch, the hard-hitting New Yorker, at Hampton where he is placed to this position. "Ted" was also finalist in the Eastern Open Sectional Championship at Bordentown where he was defeated by the 1926 champion, John McEnroe, who secured his revenge at Hampton. He defeated Hudin in the quarter-finals of the Nationals. Salitch pushes Thompson closely for first place, being in the St. Louis Open, which he lost to Hudlin. For the last four years Salitch and Dr. Smith were the Rating Committee because of the closeness of their scores, and the similarity of their styles of play. **Downing** Dr. E. D. Downing of Virginia has advanced from 196 to No. 3 in the Rating ratings. He was a semi-finalist in the Nationalists, winner of the West Virginia Open and quarter-finalist in the South Eastern Open Sectional. Downing developed the season, and showed a startling improvement in his all around game. Syl Smith The most notable game-back in the season, Downing of Dr. Sylvester Smith, Singles Champion of the A. T. A. in 1919 and finalist in 1920. After remaining out f to the game for five years, "Syl" fought his way to the semi-final.

The team was given an opportunity to represent the school. The fourth team followed. Towards the end of the game, the remaining two players were given a chance, thus putting into action every one of twenty boys were needed, but because the coach saw fit to reward the faithful by letting them represent their schools. Only we who live under the roof with these twenty-two boys in the psychological department upon them and upon the entire student body. True Sportsmanship What evidently escaped the eye of the Sprots Editor is that all twenty-two boys played a clean game as did their worthy opponents. There was no unipole-bashing either, and no teamwork or motion action. Except for the difference in the uniforms, the boys as comrades were not distinguishable. The roots, likewise, were good sports. Nethers, not players, were dying from a goal from a foot. It may in the future, be more beneficial to the cause of sports if our sports editors will give attention to such matters. The Sprots Editor, commenting on different policy employed by our worthy opponents, obviously reached the game too late to get all the preliminary information. Whereas as Armstrong had twenty-two double players, the team had played well. The most regrettable feature was that there were not more of the opposing; boys to use against Armstrong. Of those eight, seven were actually used; so Armstrong used, and Dunbar 87.1.7.2. Game Doesn't Mean Letters Now the opportunity, however, is that players has does not necessarily entitle them to the award of the coveted "A". The present award of a letter at Armstrong depends upon the letter. The letter is presented late in the year — the early part of June, at the last assembly of the school year. If at any time before the last assembly, the slips up in scholarship, or in any of the character traits, he loses his letter. A football player, for example, has from November to June in which to lose his letter, he automatically. Before the day of the award, the faculty meets to vote on each name. One objection spills the candidate's chance. The letter, thereafter, is committed thus participation in any game. Under these circumstances, we are always pleased at Armstrong to award as many letters as possible, but him is to make the letter stand for something in ideals; and we hope that our A's will not be loafing on the street corners, or in front of the剧院. In the occasion of the number of letter that we give, as it is of the significance of these letters. New Baseball Coach Starts at Manassas MANASSAN.

Page Sixteen CHAPTER XII Constance Lewis and G. G. met at the corner of Florida Avenue and Seventh. G. G. was very seldom called by her name, which happened to be Grace Gregory, but it doesn't matter, anyway. She fell upon Constance with squeaks of joy. "Lewis, you sweet old thing — it's centuries old." since we've been told G. G." exclaimed Constance. "I haven't seen you since normal school days. Where have you been hiding?" "Oh, I'm doing all the harm I can to the future hopes of the race in Baltimore. You know I did have an appointment over here so but now it is." you. "So you are teaching in Baltimore," smiled Catherine. "I have an interest over there you will be." know Asking G. G. for news was just like buying an edition of "Everybody's Business". G. G. gave a delightful riggle. plenty". She tapped Constance shoulder. "And your sweet man marries with him in it too. the whole town in ringing with his name. O, he's the Blo' Room, now." the BJ Boom. How "What! My Masson?" "What! My masseur, replied G. G. G., Say, it's cold out here and his long story. Come on in and let's have hot chocolate while I sing it into your shell-like ear." They went in the drug store and sat at one of the tiny round tables. Over their steaming cups, Constance's flower blue eyes sought G. G.'s. "Tell me about it, G. G.," she herded. "I'm dying to know. Van did write me that he was busy on a serious case. Then later he wrote that his practice had greatly improved, but he didn't go into detail." "Well," said G. G. "The details are plent and interesting." She leaned across the table and whispered, "I was all about that Lee girl." "It was all about that Lee girl. " "O," said Constance. Dick Lee's sister. "None other," said G. G. "She's been in Baltimore about two years now, and Georgia White (you know her, don't you, she crazy about Dick Lee)"— Constance didn't know, but she nodded anyway. Well, Georgia towed this Lee sister around with the bunch. Everybody though she was all right. Good looking, swell dresser, charming ways. Well, society just opened its arms to her. What with clubs and dances and everything else she was having quite a hectic time." G. G. stopped to draw her breath and to sip her chocolate. Then she continued. "But murder will out, you know and the dead past don't always stay buried. Anyhow, this Lee girl's past became a vey live present. A friend from Chicago paid a Christmas holiday call, and, O. what a call it was!" "This Chicago man was o-fay, you know, ball and chain, you understand—" Constance looked well, people! He had a misunderstanding with this Lee girl and he carved the lady into bits and finished the job by offspring a duk that long finished G. G. measured off two feet with down in the lady's ribs. He wrecked the place and then strolled on about his business and nobody's seen or heard from him since." "Now enters your Masson, the Hero. Somehow or other, I don't know how, he was there in time to render first aid, and some that he did something perfectly miraculous. Even the doctors at John Hopkins where they took her later are annaized." "He performed an operation there on the kitchen table. He had on assistance and no time to get any. He drew out that carving knife where it stuck between her ribs, and so they say, even touched the heart. He packed the wound, and tied off several pieces attached the cuts, and he was saved." "He's just wonderful." breathed Constance. "That's not all of it." went on G. G. "They had to take her to the hospital, after all, for blood transfusions. It seems the place was swimming in blood there G. G. shuddered fully, and after the tests were done Masson's blood was found compatible. I believe that's the hardest than either of the Lee so, he gave her a pint of blood on two occasions to save the heavened beauty." "O. he didn't tell me that," cried Constance. "I suppose he knew you would worry. He really does not look as if he had point of blood to spare." Said A. The affair was hard on the shirt. He shook hands with St. PetterMoreover, Georgine and her crowd are perfectly horrified and have dropped her flat. But the whole business was duck soup for Dr. Mastrying to see who can get sick first so as to be tended by the renown youngest girl stitched up a woman's heart. So, confidence it's only a matter of days when you can take the camphor balls out of her hope chest and drag yourself into Baltimore to show them just how it's done in Washington. Constance was all smiles of proud joy when G. G. finished. G. G. pointed Constance and said. in the room. "But take a tip from a friend. Watch the Lee girl." "Don't be silly," said Constance. She's only a patient. "But what a patient!" commented G. G. "They tell me that she had been around the office as much as the pictures on the wall, doing the Florence Nightingale stuff. Now, since he's n's Price LOUISE CAMPER saved her life and given his life's blood for her well, there's the music, write your own words." "And mind you, Constance, she has a face that makes men turn around and women turn green, and the madman from Chicago cut her every- where but on it, too. That's still pale but pretty. And if I were in your place, I would not wait any brown skinned Cleopatra fawning gratitude my father." And with that parting shot, G. G. gathered up her things and took herself off, saying, "So long, kid," and leaving Constance to pay the check. Which was getting off reasonably, considering the value of the information imparted, and that same night Constance and her mother had a long and quiet talk. There are times, thought Constance's mother, when an 'understanding' that is more or less secret, is very romantic. At other times it is a disadvantage. There are also times when the proper and safe thing to do is to hoist a "no trespass" sign so that all the world, including grateful brown Gleon纳tras, may take notice and accordingly. Of course, Mrs. Lewis did not express herself in any such indicative manner, but managed to make her meaning clear enough for practical purposes. An April morning with clear blue skies and a song of winter past and flowery summer near came to Baltimore. There was sunshine enough to rout all winter's snow, not one moth seceded through to Luanda Lee's heart. Nothing but sadness lived there, and disgrace. She moved around her kitchen on leaden feet, slowly, like twenty years had passed and not for even one second could she forget that terrible day when Joe Libertini had visited his wrist upon her. It lived with her — the memory of the disgrace and the pain of the glass that hung on the kitchen wall. Not a mark marred the satin brown of her skin. True, pallor had left her lighter, and drained of her vivid coloring. Her eyes were hadowed with dark circles, but they shone as brightly as before. Her lips were coral pink instead of red. Three months had healed every wound that Liebertini had placed on her body butears that wipe away the marks he had left on her prid. She put her hand to her cheek, as she gazed at her reflection. "I wish he had backed my face to bits so no one could recognize me on the streets," she muttered. "I could see my eyes out. I could not see the scorn in other people's faces when they look at me." She gave a half sobbing laugh as she thought of Georgine. How carefully Georgine looked the other way when she saw Luanna, now. Luana Lee hated her, hated Liebertini, who had brought this curse upon her. She hated even her mother. He loved him from the first, she idolized him now. He was forever out of her reach, she realized, but the object of her devotion still. Her confidence in *her* was completely wrecked. she was at the lowest ebb of moral stamina. ed. She was at the lowest epoe of mother skimming. Cut off from the pleasure of mimicking his sports and clubs, and somehow or other not caring to run with the gang down "East", her life was a monotonous round. Luana tried to shake off her depression. She must work quickly. There were vegetables to wash and prepare and the apartment to mop and dust before she dressed her clothes, office, and she left them there by noon. Brisk work, and her tasks were finished. She hurried down the steps. In the letterbox there was a square envelope addressed to Dick and her. She opened it. pulled out a smaller envelope, then a card, wrapped in tissue. Mr. and Mrs. John Ewing Lewis request the presence of their marriage to their daughter. Constance Ewing. The world grew a little darker and more unsteady. She leaned her ear against the wall for support. smile. She read the card over and over again. It put a definite end to all her hopes. Wednesday, the tenth of June. She had known this blow was coming, that it had to come, but now that it had arrived it was like a long expected death, a dull shock. With a beautiful smile she walked out into the beautiful morning sunshine. It was past noon when she reached Dr. Masson's office and she busied herself setting the two adjoining rooms to order. At two o'clock. Dr. Masson came in for his afternoon office hours. Luana had noticed for some time, that since she had come to be patient, she had since been with her, she had since before the scene with Frank Carson and the disclosure concerning the mink coat. This attitude hurt Luana more than his former indifference. Professional interest was a poor substitute for love. He erected her cheerily, friendly, with the buoyant welcome of the doctor gives a patient when he is fed from death. "How goes it, today," he asked. "I'm all right doctor," was her dull answer. ```markdown ``` He ewed her a moment, then said, "You are pale today. Has anything happened? What's the trouble?" She assured him that there was no trouble. "Taking that tonic regularly?" She admitted that she was. "Very well, then. Don't stop it. And no worrying, forget everything. Stop brooding. Spend the rest of the park and a part of every day in the sunshine. I want to see you laughing and smiling again." Launa smiled a wan s.alle. How happy he seemed this morning! Joyous because his wedding day was near, she knew. She felt that she should offer him some word of comfort but to save her life she should broach the subject, went to the waiting room while at the desk in the office. She opened the door once or twice to admit patients, sterilized instruments, but beside that no words passed them until he left at three o'clock. For this hour from two o'clock to three, she lived. Just to be near him those short minutes was the one pleasure of her life. Now, soon this brief happiness would be denied her. Wednesday, the tenth of June. Her execution day! Desolation fell upon her. Why, after that day, she would never see him unless perhaps she felt ill. She left the office with lagging feet. Somehow she hated to leave the place where he worked. For the first time she disregarded his orders. She felt impossible to sit out in the sunshine under the gaze of passersby. She wanted the solitude of her home. She found Florine hopefully exploring her refrigerator. She turned, with a sandwich in one hand, and a bottle of sugar-alle in the other, to ask. Luana silently handed her Constance's missi- "Luana Lee. I never thought I'd see you weeping tears over a man. Let me tell you something. They aren't worth it. If you must cry, cry about something, like if you like the kind of booting I get, getting these days." For once Florine's railery failed to brighten Luana, and she sat with her head on the table crying into a sodden handkerchief. Florine came over to pat her shoulder. "Look up, and wipe your eyes. Tears never won a man yet. It is smiles that turn the trick. Anyway, since you want this man, and I wonder why, why not take him. Its being done, you know." At this Luana looked up startled. "Take him!" she echoed. "After all that's happened, after all that he knows about me?" She pointed to the envelope. "After that?" Florine also pointed to the wedding invitation. "That," she said slowly. "That doesn't mean a thing. No more than a stop signal to a drunken driver. Listen sister, forget what's happened, and other people will forget also. Use your head, kid. You have everything to make the man fall. Go ahead and make him." "How can I make him," said Luana sadly. "He cares nothing for me. He's only polite to me because I'm Dick's sister." "You don't know what he cares for you," said Florine. "And if you ask me, judging by the way he kissed you Christmas, what he thinks of you doesn't mean Constance any good." Anyway, it's up to you to make him say what he thinks." "He thinks I'm the most disgusting woman "Nay, Nay," Florine comforted her. "They never think that wav about a pretty woman. You twin sisters to Cleopatra are the unfortunate victims of circumstances. It's only the homely dames who are tough. The woman you is, you're playing the game backwards. Writer is his office, playing nurse will never get you anything. It's time enough to do that when you're married and have to. Now's the time to vamp him. Be a woman to his man. You can't lose. He'll answer your love, don't you worry." "He doesn't dream that I love him," rejoined Luna. "He'd think I was crazy if he did." "If he doesn't know it, tell him," said Florine. "Then he would hate me." "Try it living and see." said Florine. "The man's not living who hates a goodlooking woman for loving him." Luana Lee had not the slightest intention of taking Florine's advice, but it came just as she had given up all hope. Dr Van Masson knew everything evil of her that woke up. He knew about Carson's coat, and what he thought was, no doubt, worse than the truth. He knew the whole disgraceful story of her relationship with Liebertin. Well, then, what more had she to lose? Nothing. Seed germinates in darkness and unconsciously a thought suggestion flowers into the soil. Florimore Luana Lee caught herself toying with the thought. Could she possibly win Masson, even against himself? How? Was what Florine said possible? Even though he knew of her past would he love her anyway? Day after day lagged by, bringing the tenth of June closer and closer. Florimore seized Luana. After the tenth of June would be too late. Before the tenth of June, she had everything to gain and nothing more to lose! Scala's gambling blood took the ascendency in his daughter. She almost admitted to herself that, given the opportunity, she had half a mind to try Florine's way of getting the man she wanted!

In Darker Baltimore BY RALP MATTHEWS My boss and I had a run in. We are at baggerheads. We disagree on things. This proves that great minds do not always run in the same channels. We agree on both our opinions. He thinks I think I'm right. We both concede the other is wrong. He calls me and bawls me out. I bawi him cut, but keep it in. He is my boss. We are sore at each other. He thinks I knock when I should boost. I say nasty things, only things when I could say nice things, complimentary things, sweet things. Should use adjectives if fry and satire and smart cracks. I should make friends, he thinks. I disagree with him. Nice things, I claim complimentary things, sweet things should be left to people who think up epitaphs for tombstones, and not be wasted by ordinary guys like me. I should debunk the quick and leave the good things for the dead. Be constructive, he contends, build up—don't tear things down. It isn't god-like. A knock's a boost. I still aver. Everybody knocks the weather, but still it rains—it hails—we have blizzards. I pan this thing and debunk that, but nobody stops doing anything that they were doing because I say they shouldn't do it. My column comes on week. I say unbecoming things. The Sun moves on when it goes down — the world moves on. Nobody cares. But of this discourse, we will have anon. I give in. My boss is right. He pays me. People who pay you are always right. This week I boost. Our Baltimore Girls With the exception, I think, of Washington, Philadelphia, Winston-Salem, New York and any other city you can think of, Baltimore has the most beautiful women in the world. The sun-light of the ages has been imprisoned in their dusky cheek. They buy it at drug stores. Their eyes are like immense and suddenly strenuous snatched from a vivacious baskell. They are inlaid in a purplish glow which vanishes with an application of raw beef. Their hair, like ebony colored violets, gushes from their shapely heads like jet black streams over a prepice and trickles into glittering waves that are lost over their tapering velvety shoulders. It is done, they take it off and carefully hang it over the back of a chair until the first rays of the morning sun dance on their window panes and bid the world awake. Their shapely lumps encased in silken sheer like hose, skin tight less they detract from their shape are such that Venus would turn her head in wonder—to know how so many quercus legs could be found in either Their tiny feet are shod in as tiny shoes upon which they trip as daintily as fairies on a mid-summer night, and when evening comes they free them from their pinching casements and relieve the smart by soaking them in a boiling mustard bath. Baltimore is most beautiful girls in all the world. The Bar Association Among my souvenirs I hold the old Monumental Bar Association. The banquets they used to give—the good food—the good drinks have long since ceased to be. The song is ended, but the memory lingers on. No longer do we have important judicial persons come to Chicago, Philadelphia and other places to visit. No longer do two or three of our leading legal lights on frock coats and join a reception committee in the Union station to escort some notable to our festive boards. No longer do fat and jovial Roy S. Bond and not fat and not so violate that Nashie Hawkins, argue a nothing in particular. No longer are free cigars passed passed around. But I forgot. I am supposed to boost, not knock, therefore. I say that the Monumental Bar Association is the finest bar association in the Saturday, Mar. 3, 1928 world, the most important up-to-date. It is the only bar association that can function without ever holding a meeting. The only bar association that can keep up its morals without invading a banquet occasionally and swapping men. Baltimore should well prove proud. Baltimore Boosters Baltimore has bigger, better boosters than any other city, the Adelphians Club for an example. The Fannie W. Harper Temple, for anoth- exam example, Gough McDaniels for a third. This column would not be complete without a word to boost Baltimore boosters who boost Baltimore. The Adelphian Club does that. I did it at the Penn Hotel. They boosted Baltimore at $1.50 per plate. They paid 50 cents for the plate. They made speeches and a dollar profit. They lauded people, ate chicken, smoothed on the corner of the table-cloth and went home, and Baltimore shows no signs of improvement. The Daughter Elks brought big women here, educated women and otherwise. They made speeches, ate a "victory dinner," took up collages, went home and laid aside their white starched dresses and purple badges, and Baltimore woke up the next morning just as lazily and shattered. Baltimore always wakes up. Does it really really happen? Do people want to be boosted? Doesn't boosting people make them self-satisfied? Doesn't a knock make them boost themselves? My boss is happy.

Headwaiter For From Union St Twenty-five years of hustle and bustle to the sound of rumbling trains and clanking bells, catering to the impatient demands of busy travelers for a quarter of a century, has taken its form on the nervous system of Charles E. Hicks, headwater of the Union Station Restaurant, who resigned last week. For years Mr. Hicks, who lives at 1434 McCullosh Street, has been a familiar figure at the door of the cafeteria and dining room to the travelers who have passed through the Montgomery County general annexation celebrates who have entered Baltimore via the Pennsylvania Railroad System, and is known to those who visit frequently as "Charlie." Until three years ago the dining room and the railroad and the employees were entitled to the pension fund as all other railroad employees, but recently the Savarine Restaurant chain took over the dining room and the railroad and the waiters are considered as other private employees. Mr. Hicks is 48 years of age, and went to work at the Union Station at the age of 23. He will still remain at the employ of the company, but will fill a position which does not carry the responsibility of managing the crew of 22 men. BLA 408-410 N.

HOG CHOLERA CAN'T BE CURED HOG CHOLERA CAN'T BE CURED RIDGE, Md.—"Don't put any money in so-called hog cholera cures. There is none," was the advice of Dr. M. Atherton, of the University of Maryland, speaking at the Farmers' Conference at Cardinal Gibbons Institute last week. Other advice on the same subject was: Don't take chances. Isolate immediately, any hog not feeding well, or otherwise along the table. Have to be�ed to be�ed. Having isolated the hog, clean out the quarters it has occupied and send immediately for your county agent. The best cure is prevention. Don't feed pork scraps of any kind to a hog unless cooked sufficiently to sterilize the bone and all. Don't give the contents of spoiled jars of food-stuff to your hogs. It will kill them. Sunlight kills the cholera germ. If your hogs are less clean out and burn the abuse from the gen. turn under the soil and let the sun do the rest. Some lime may hasten the process. There are only two ways of spreading cholera. The food or by contact with other hogs having the disease. The air does not carry the germ. Burn or bury the carcass of a hog that dies from cholera. Bury the carcass of any animal or fowl that is found on your premises. Or to the rest of the dumps will be attracted and may bring the disease from other infected carcasses to your lot. Buy plips only from ferns you know to be infected. If you have an unknown source may infect your herd. Don't allow visitors in an infected herd. Don't allow visitors in an infected herd on the mud on their feet. Don't visit infected lots yourself. If you must go in such places, wear gloves with disinfectant when you leave the lot. 26 Form Farm Club ROSSVILLE, Md.—In cooperation with Miss P. Williams and Mrs. E. H.

Liquids, $1.25---Tablets, $1.10 GOOD MORNING JUDGE Goose Hangs High Blanche Doesn't Know It Strange things happen between man and wife. Hard luck has dogged the footsteps of Lloyd Young, 1306 Pennsylvania avenue, since last summer, and so Thursday night after she wished she had a realization that she was not being treated right when it came to the "coin". She got right out of bed, leaving him there, walked down to the next block and preferred a charge of non-support at Northwestern. "What have you to say, Mrs. Young? asked the Judge. We know you honor, not to think he was treating you. He never gives me any money to spend. He is always "tanked up" and last summer I had to work to buy my own clothes." "What about that, Lloyd," demanded the Judge. "Well, judge. My wife is all wrong. I have always given her money. All she does is play them "numbers", roll around at "liker" parties and "stagger" in home any old time of day." At this juncture, Blanch broke in a few words. "Floyd is simply lying I left him two or three times and upon each occasion I had to go back to school." After hearing enough of the Young "chatter" to surmise that the little domestic misunderstanding would soon wear off, the judge dismissed the case. Pearl Didn't Take Cue; William Went To Jail It's a funny thing, but all some people do is fight, knock down and carry out. William and Pearl Dean had been on the outs since last Monday.
