In a scorching hot farewell speech delivered to the House of Representatives on Monday, Mr. Gabaldon did all he could to devote his full energies to work for Filipino independence. Can't Shake Hands "It would be so bad, he said, "to be governed by people of my own, but to be governed over my protest by people who consider themselves superior, and people who can't shake with me on the basis of social and political power, and the atmosphere that is intolerable and against which I protest with all the power of being." "Filipinos are modest, have pride and self-respect," he said. They can never be completely happy because Americans will never treat on the basis of social, racial and political power. "Even now, Filipinos graduated from the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, are not permitted to board American vessels, but can only be ordered to command Filipino troops in the Philippines.

Villard's 'Grand-dad' Imprisoned Here For Race Equality Theory Commenting on Oswald Garrison Villard's stand on the "Nation" Dinner, Warner T. McGuinn, attorney and City Councilman, recalled today how Mr. Villard's grandfather once published a paper in Baltimore and was later awarded his championship of human rights. "Mr. Oswald Garrison Villard is a direct lineal descendant of William Villard, the first president of our far as I have been able to observe. Mr. Villard has adhered to and advocated the principles enunciated and strongest in our brand of leadership. William Lloyd Garrison." "It will be recalled that in 1820, William Lloyd Garrison published in this city a paper called 'The Genius of the American Periodical' he advocated the immediate abolition of slavery and condemned the colonization of the Negroes in Africa. He advocated Garrison's denunciation of the taking of a cargo of slaves from Baltimore to New Orleans as "domestic buracy" led to his indictment in the courts of Brownsville, Birmingham, Providence, and fined; and being unable to discharge his fine, was imprisoned, until the generous act of a New York merchant released him. In the courts of the abolition of slavery may be cleaned from a Fourth of July address in 1842. In that address he said, "presently as the advocate of enslaved countrymen at a time when their claims cannot be shuffled out of sight. If I am asked to prove their title to liberty, my answer is that they were not wasted in establishing self-identified truths. "In the name of God, who has generals in the Spanish army. "We have been governed without our consent and in spite of our protest for 30 years. Lincoln, said, "Those who deny freedom to others deserve none for themselves and under a just God cannot long retain Lincoln Quoted "If then, God is just, the United States must either keep its pledge to give our independence to it, gives our loyalty to its own. That's according, not to me, to but to Abraham Lincoln." "The only reason the United States knew we strangle-hold on the Philippines, he said, was because the Philippines haven't armed force enough to put them out. "Central" "The very reason we have not been given our independence is the investment of American capital in the issuance of American investment there is an additional nail in the coffin of our independence. Japan" "It is said that Japan hopes and expects some day to be able to amalgamate and attain the moral support of the colored races of the United States for racial equality. This issue is coming more and more to the front with each passing year. The colored races know that the United States promised to give the Philippines their freedom and instead of doing so, is only making one excuse. Japan will be able to make use of this fact for anti-American and anti-white race propaganda purposes as long as the United States gives its pledges, to give independence to the Philippines." made us of one blood and in whose image we are created. I demand the immediate emancipation of those who are pining in slavery on the American soil, and the shameless in Maryland and Virginia or are wasting as with a pestilent disease on the cotton and sugar plantations of Alabama and Maryland. "I assert their perfect equality with ourselves, AS A PART OF THE HUMAN RACE AND THEIR INALIENABLE RIGHT TO LIBERATION AND THEIR RIGHT TO OPERATION." "Keeping in view the whole life of Mr. Villard, himself as 'well as his illustrious background, I am unable to see how, under any circumstances; he could be a party to a jim crow institution tendered him in Baltimore."

Hotels Frightened Immediately the committee made efforts to secure accommodations at the Rennert, the New Howard and other hotels, but found it, it was said, a unified decision on the part of all managementes to refuse if colored subscribers were to be included. They finally succeeded Tuesday, in securing the Arundell hall, belonging to the Arundell Club, 2 W. Eager street. When this change in arrangements was wired Mr. Villard, Miss Elizabeth Gillman, a member of the local committee, the following tele-fire from blim: "Thank you with all my heart. Delighted. Shall be there." **Gets Cold Feet** The next day I came late Tuesday, Mrs. Sanl L. McLanahan, Arundel president, withdrew permission to hold the dinner there before the "Club" instead of at the "hell." Members of the committee explained that the use of the word "club" instead of "dinner" in a letter to the Arundel Club president informed the committee that it would have to withdraw consent to use the hall. **Gets Dinner** Members of the committee stated Wednesday morning, that arrangements for the dinner would go forward and that Mr. Villard's wish that count of color, would be respected. Gillman told the AFROAMERICAN that whatever else happens the dinner would be held and the subscribers would be accommodated. In a letter sent out to subscribers, Tuesday, it was announced that tickets sold for the Southern Hotel would be good at the hall. **The Letter** "The Committee", the letter said, "has consented to transfer the dinner to the Southern Hotel in deference to Mr. Villard's strong feeling in the matter of race discrimination. Mr. Villard declines to attend a dinner from which his sister is now prepared to accommodate them if they desire to come. We feel that, since the dinner is being given in honor of Mr. Villard, his in this matter must be respected. Tickets already sold for the Southern Hotel will, of course, be good for the Arundel Hall but, if any of the tickets are not purchased, dinner on account of the change in place or for any other reason, their money will be refunded immediately upon application. Ten Years The Baltimore Hotel is one of a series being held throughout, the country to honor Mr. Villard, on the tenth anniversary of his editorship of the "Nation".

LINDER ATLANTA, GA., (ANP.) —With denominational schools and the several annual conferences, together owing over $15,400,000 is increasing unrest and dissatisfaction among the laity and the ministers. Mismanagement, particularly of the schools, seems one of the causes. Around 1912, she was awarded over Georgia, and peace and prosperity ran high in the African Methodist Episcopal camps, a piece of property, some 600 acres, valuable and beautiful for location, just on the outskirts of the City of Macon, was bought for $30,000, a song compared with 1927 values. This property was sold in 1927 for $2,500. News of this colossal loss reaching the laity and those ministers termed as "irregular", there was a general undercover study of affairs. Investigations indicate a mortgage indebtedness on Morris Brown University of $78,000, upon which annual payments of $60,000 had been presumed that the mortgage was floated to satisfy an obligation of $60,000 incurred at a time when additional properties were sold for that amount. But why did a $60,000 deal require a retirement mortgage of $78,000, an amount of $12,000 more than the property? Other information seems to indicate that the school has a debt of more than $21,000 in the form of past due salaries to instructors, more than $12,000 to teachers, while the eight conferences in the state are under obligations totalling more than $12,000. And worse than all, the school treasurer that a comparative statement of the business conditions of the school for a period of from three to fifteen years would show that the educational system has been goo The president, Dr. John H.

Lollipop's Letter Lollipop's Letter Have you noticed that big white moon that makes the nights almost as bright as day? Maybe the nights are now too crisp and cold for you to meander forth, but let me say if you haven't enjoyed some heavenward gazes this week, you've missed a treat. But don't gaze at those luminous bodies to such an extent you'll go looney, — just get another Nighthawk and do a chord two. The big real thrill for the collegiate boys and girls came off last Saturday afternoon at the Lincoln Colonnade in Anaheim, the Omegas, 31 to 28. The place was crowded and it was a frightfully exciting and good game, the boys playing was even more exciting, added several times. Luere was a dance after the game that was just too tight, and the boys and girls had a good time bumping into the Phi Beta Sigma Frat plays Omega next Saturday — same place — same hour — same good time. Our Little Theatre group repeated the three plays — Blue Blood, The Hunch and The Flight of the Natives in the first evening for the benefit of the "Y" These plays did not go as smoothly as when presented at the Cleveland Playhouse, but they laid to the poor stage facilities. Wonder where we can lay the blame for forgotten lines? At any time, these young actors would hit the "Y" with their best bit for the "Y." I hear that early in May the KRIGWA will present "For Tommy's Sake" by E.F. C. Williams, and a very modern play by Willis Richardson. The Y. W. C. A.

Well, Lollipon, you haven't given me such peace since I told you I'd step up to Freedmen's Hospital and look the Internes over. I've been up there several times recently, but have had to be alert in side-stepping the Surgeon-in-Chief and the Assistant Surgeon-in-Chief, for I think "Pa" Warfield and "General" T. Edward Jones are always on the job. Do you realize there are twenty-four of those birds up there, dressed in their purity suits, and most of them are married and therefore uninteresting (?). Let me preface my remarks by saying their work of attending the sick and the needy always comes first. — as it should be. I haven't been able to get the low down on all of them — but here goes: Dick Banks, married and a do-right man Bill Adams seems to be obsessively interested in the simple life. Charlie Boyd has recently married is now leading the simple life. Ernest Cherie of New Orleans — he's single, Lollipop, and a-plenty. Boy Clerk is very quiet, unassuming and won $100.00 for highest scholarship. Pinyon Cornish is a Washington boy. He is married a.! a cracker-jack wield. Cliff Gordon, married but oh, my! how that good-looking boy can step away. Horne Huggins one handsome boy. He is someone rep for himself when he and Marcelle Dumas were principals in that fashionable society wedding in Mississippi last summer. Phillips, single, studious and shy, with appealing eyes. Seems much interested in a little West Virginia nurse. Anderson Scott, single, but was almighty. Wonder what caused the rift with the Secretary to the Dean of the Medical School? But he's such a sheik! Marcus Wheatland, married, and with the hospital, he's with his wife (2). "Ego" Jackson, single, but judging from the freemant long distance calls, he'll be joining his side-kick, Wheatland, in the marriage state. He married, I hear, but Lollipop, here is the shiek of sheiks — a most successful one. Friend-wife is in West Virginia, and of course the poor boy gets lonesome, and after that Doctor Giles is from Ohio State, and is very much interested in his work, and especially in cancer cases. Milton Edmonds — a would-be psychiatrist. Not married yet, but will be this summer, if all goes well. Sam Stewart, single, but he believes in keeping late hours. His girl friend is in college, and he spends most of his time with the boys, and sometimes gives them a merry chace. Kelly Miller, Jr., is supposed to be an Infernee, but so says he is practiced. Sister Evelyn Lewis is single, keeps step with the boys, and sometimes gives them a merry chace. He has made many varied leaks into the journalistic field, getting down to BRASS TACKS. And now he is plopping, please spare me with the Internes. I shall take one more gaze at my beloved moon — and then to bed! Arm Worth $10,000 WASHINGTON, D.

A filibuster lasting more than one and one-half hours was staged at the Baptist Ministers' meeting by a number of pastors to prevent the Rev. Dail Over making a statement giving his side of the fight in the Union Baptist church controversy. The Rev.

He did not precede any statement. It was following this ruling that a number of the pastors started a "filibuster" discussing at length the sermon delivered by the Rev.

In 8 years the church is the Negro's own institution, developed according to his likes and to meet his peculiar spiritual needs, built on his own standards and for his own purposes. Unlike any other organization or body does the church represent the ideals and the real life of the race on the continent of North America.

PEOPLE NOT SAVED TO GO TO HEAVEN-MACK God Wants People Who Are Converted To Save Others Says Pastor OBEDIENCE STRESSED When God Gives Command He Wants It Carried Out People are not saved just so they might go to heaven when they die, but to go out and work for his least deserved reward. Rev. D. G. Mack, at Macedonia Baptist Church, Sunday. God does not call people to be converted just to come to church and get happy when inspired by the gospel when inspired to go out and pass it on so that others might be benefited and brought to Christ. When a gambler is converted God is not satisfied until he goes back and brings in his Wants Men To Go When God tells a man to go and do a piece of work for him, he wants his commands obeyed. He ordered Jonah to go to Nineveh to warn the people produced against them because they were Gentiles instr/1 of Jews and took a ship elsewhere. God called fourth the elements and caused the ship to teach Jonah that his orders were to be obeyed. When Saul was stricken blind, God ordered Anniasin to visit him and teach him the way of the Lord, but Anniasin was afraid because Saul had been known as the persecutor of Israel, and lay aside fears and go because Saul was now praying and a man who prayed could do no harm. People who pray, declared the pastor, have no time nor desire to do evil things. God Opportunity When Moses and the children of Israel reached the Red Sea with the mountains on one side and the oncoming hosts of Egypt going into the sea, Moses feared that they would perish, but he obeyed the command. If Moses had refused to strike the waters with his sword, he had perished. When man reaches his extreme, that is God's opportunity to prove his power.

The restriction against race occupying a room on the statute books which provides 51 percent of the home owners of any section of a city may voluntarily sign a petition against any element or faction buying, becoming a tenant or locating a property. The Trusty told the body that this measure would apply to races as well as business plants and that 51 percent could terminate the agreement in any case where it was desired that they wanted to move out of the city.

ANNIE OLIVER, 929 Fulton street There is a way of overcoming the tendency to constipation. And here is how you can PROVE it. The next time your bowels need any assistance, don't take the first one. You can take one the druggist can assure you is made with CASCARA. Just as effective as using force, and it's good for the system. Indeed, it helps make good blood. For cascara is nothing but the bark of a tree. The Indians chew this bark, and an old woman who happens when you cascarize the bowels? They will usually function well for SEVERAL DAYS. One more dose—no larger, and perhaps smaller than the first—and the bowels function of their own accord for a still longer time. Until you don't feel the need of any aid of any sort for week-on-earn. So, the only habit you get from cascara is that of natural and normal regularity. How different from ISLAM KINDER TO DARK FOLK WRITES ROGERS GENEVA, SWITZERLAND.—Islam has treated the Negro more kindly than Christianity, according to J. A. Rogers, whose article on this subject appears in the "Review of Nations," published here. In weighing Christianity and the Negro, ogers scvs, cares should be taken to distinguish between the attitude of the Christian church prior to the discovery of the new world and afterward. Northern Africa, the bulk of whose population is Negroid, was a great stronghold of Christianity in its earliest stages. Many of the early fathers of the church, such as St. Augustine, St. Ertullian, Origin and Cyprian, the great standard bearers of Christianity, came to this region and were in all probability of Negro ancestry. St. Augustine was a Numidian, the land from which came the phrase, "black as a Numidian". Simon, the Eryanen, was also an African, and was depicted in the earliest prints as a Negro. Even Christ and the Virgin Mary were depicted as black and a black Virgin is venerated in certain regions of southern Europe today. Different In the New World With the discovery of the new conditions changed Slave traders justified their trafficking of human lives by saying, that they were saving, not only the bodies of the slaves, but their souls and Christ had commanded them to bring everybody under the Christian influence. Blight Of Slavery The records of the slave traders, says Rogers, has been a gory. For instance, between 1700 and 1786, Negroes transplanted to the island of Jamaica numbered 610 yet in 1820, the number on the island was only 240. Of the 8,000 so Negroes transplanted to the United States overseas from 1619 to 1860, less than four million remained to be freed in 1865. The Modern Day Discussing the modern day, Rogers says, "The most Christian part of America, the southern states, "The Bible Belt", is the most barbarous. There the most lynchings and burnings of Negroes. The barbarity of Anglo-Saxon Christianity in South Africa is also discussed. Speaking of Islam, Mr. Rogers says, "Islam has never known a color line for reasons that go deep. Ranking perhaps next to Mohammed, Ranked in the affection of Islam, Rahab a Negro, and Mohammed's otherself, Treas, advisor, muzinz, and almost earliest convert Mohammed thought so much of Billad that he granted him precedence in Heaven. Mohammed rose to power in the regions where many of the rulers were known as Negroes now aday, and rulers of Egypt, Numidia and Lybia, black and white, had been meed, and mating as equals on the acres of the Mediterranean for thousands Highest Privileges From the moment a Negro becomes a convert to Islam, there is nothing to prevent attaining the highest privileges, social and political to which a white Moslem may attain. Not on account of these made governments of provinces, under the Moslem empire, but kings. "I admonish you," said Mohammed on the approach of death, "to fear God and yield obedience to my successor though he may be a Negro slave." While the Bible sanctions the enslavement of Christians, the Koran (Moslem's Bible) expressly forbids the slave in bondage. No Iu Hrm. Churches. No Jim Crow Churches As to churches, there is not a single Jim crow mosque in all Islam, the Negro entering freely into all with the white man. When the late Jade Mahi saw a poor Negro kneeling him in the mosque, he said to him, "In this place we are all one." Christians sell Liquor In Africa, says Rogers, Christians sells liquor to the natives. Moslem sell it, Mohammedans practice progamy, Perchance, says Rogers, Christians also believe in concubinage. Falls In Africa Christianity has failed in Africa, says Rogers, for 19 centuries of Missionary efforts, the majority of Christians there are the small number of Europeans. top floor, is confined to her home by illness DEATIS Some recent Harlem deaths are: Alice Jackson, 327 W. 98th street; Helen B.

Distribution of students in publicly controlled institutions of four-year collegiate grade in 17 States and the distribution of Federal and State funds for four-year collegiate education and the relation of the distribution of the population in 17 States having separate schools for white and Negro students.1 1 These date were obtained from "Biomedical Survey of Education, 1922-1924" Department of Interior, Bureau of Education Bulletin (1926) No. 23, and State Superintendent's Reports for 1922-1924; Bureau of Education Bulletin this table prepared by Dean Dwight, O. A. Holmes and Prof. Charles H. Thompson for the Howard, University Bureau of Research of the School of Education. Page Six 1. Column 1 gives a list of 17 States in which separate educational facilities are maintained for whites and Negroes. 2. Columns 2 and 3 give the white and the Negro population, respectively, based upon the Fourteenth Census Report. 3. Column 4 shows the per cent that the Negro population is of the white for each State. Md. 22.9. 4. Column 5 represents the number of white students enrolled in State institutions of four-year collegiate grade in each of the States. Md. 5670. 5. Column 6 shows the number of Negroes that should be enrolled if educational opportunities were given Negroes on the basis of population. Md. Md. 5670. In addition, students enrolled in institutions of 4 yr. collegiate grade. Therefore Negroes who constitute 29.2 per cent of the white population ought to have in similar institutions 22.9% of 5670 or 1298. 6. Column 7 shows the number of Negroes who acquire high school students institutions of four-year collegiate grade; e.g., in Md. there is not a single Negro enrolled in a publicly controlled institution of four-year collegiate grade. 7. Column 8 indicates the number of students enrolled in Howard University from each of the 17 States listed; e.g., there are 74 students from Maryland enrolled in Howard University. 13. Column 14 shows what Negros actually received from the States; e.g., Maryland gave Negro institutions (f) 74,968 and, as will be seen from the footnotes (1) most of the contributions from the States for Negros included mainly funds for schools of junior college grades. The Above Table 1. Negroes represent an average of 33.2 percent of the white population in the 17 States listed with a range of 5.3 per cent in Missouri to 109.5 per cent in South Carolina. Therefore, on the average for the 17 States left Negroes receive about one-third as much as the whites 2. There are a total of 128,958 white students in institutions of four-year college grade. There are supposedly 3,071 Negroes in such institutions, but when the secondary school students are eliminated there are actually only 1,446 students (controlled). On the basis of population, Negroes should have 37,884 such students. Howard University has registered at the present 1,056 students, almost as many as are in similar State institutions for Negroes in all of these 17 States combined. Again it should be noted that in 11 of the 17 States not a single Negro is registered in an institution of the 20-year collegiate grade. There are Howard University at the present time 759 students from these 11 States alone. It should be noted further that there are in Howard University 306 students from these 17 States taking medicine and 41 students there are 17 States taking in a program in the provision is made to the Regions for such education in any of these States (except West Virginia, see huose bill No. 10, Legislature of West Virginia) either by the States or by the Federal Government. 3. Appropriations for white and Negro education: (1) White institutions in these 17 States receive a total of $5,305,482 from the Federal Government. (b) Negros receive a total of $232,275 (most of which goes for education of junior college programs) from the Federal Government. (c) Negroes should receive on the basis of population from the Federal Government $2.114,494. (d) White institutions received a total of $31,651,836 from the 17 States. (e) Negroes received from the same States $1,904,826. (f) Negroes should have received on the basis of population, $10,876,426. (g) White institutions received both from the Federal and State Governments $36,957,288. (h) Negroes received both from the Federal and State Governments $2.133,584. (i) Negroes received from both the Federal and State Governments $12,990,920, leaving a deficiency of $10,857,326. --- the facts as publish- Bureau of Edu- cation government dollars a year, a equal the Teape of course, deny funds is being If the above facts as published by the Howard University Bureau of Education are true, here is a gigantic government fraud involving 10 millions of dollars a year, a fraud which in 30 years would equal the Teapot dome steal. Southerners, of course, deny that any misuse of federal funds is being perpetuated. Rep. Malcolm C. Tarner (Dem.) of Georgia, one who calls the Howard figures incorrect, and who declares that the South-Hughes and Morrell-Nelson funds are the only federal moneys for higher education spent in Georgia which gets $281,127 instead of the half million dollars set down in the Howard table. Howard's estimates are 50% in error, is his inference. Fortunately the truth or falsity of these figures is a matter which can and will be established without any need of argument. Howard's figures so confounded Dixie Congressmen that the Howard appropriation was passed without debate. But the states also serve to open the eyes of southern states and cause them to find what becomes of federal appropriations for a education.

What Color Was Adam Father Adam was made in the image of God, and made him by word from dust to a clod, and made him the color of God. And soil that is good, is black as sin, and God would make nothing bad; and God would make all black skin. The same colored skin that God had. And from father Adam we all did descend, Though some have faded all white; and some have faded all blend, While skins are still black as the night. It may be our sin chagged the color God gave, But as angels we never will fade; To our original color God made. We thank God for Adam if nothing but mud, And both of them had a black skin; And we will not mud, Ere the glory of Heaven we win. ALLEN STEWART, Pritchard, N. J.

P. this pamphlet, is alleged, was circulated by the There came to my attention a few days ago a pamphlet attacking the N. A. C. P. The pamphlet, is alleged, was circulated by the Ku Klux Klan. The Ku Klux Klan, according to the pamphlet, is the only salvation of America, and the N. A. C. P. is one of the greatest curses in America. The pamphlet encourages the Negro to let his dawns live in lust of women of the white race. The policy of the K. K. K., to my mind, tends more in this direction than does that of the N. A. C. P. The Ku Klux Klan, seemingly, aims to play the white women upon a pedestal before the eyes of the Negro and to forbid him to so theron. To do this is to magnify a temptation and to try to counteract the effect by the threat. The N. A. C. P. on the other hand, considers all women as human beings and makes the respect for all womanhood a moral obligation. Later-marriage is impossible without the mutual assent of the parties of both races. The Klan seems to say that the women of the white race are so weak of character and so immature in mental development that they are protected in order to prevent their straying from the path of rectitude. And yet, it does not seem to think that the women of the Negro race need such protection. The Ku Klux Klan, according to the pamphlet, is the only salvation of America, and the only hope of saving America. The "N. A. A. C.

To the Editor: Mr. McMillan's writeup of this city is a good job and should be used for a comic page and an article. From the report, I conclude, that Mr. McMillan was more interested in Negro gossip of certain groups than he was in acquaintancing him with those who were able to give him firsthand information. I quite a few of the most prosperous business houses in the city were overlooked, and the same institutions have the highest ratings in their respective fields here in this city. By the writer we are informed that the writer are not the model type of business house conducted by Negroes of this vicinity and the idea of giving this kind so much publicity is very unfair and unjust.

To the Editor: Mr. McMillan's writepub of this city is a good joke and should be used for a comic page and not for the report. I conclude, that Mr. McMillan was more interested in Negro gossip of certain groups than he was in acquainting him with who were able to give him first hand information. Quite a few of the most prosperous business houses in the city were overlooked, and these same institutions were the most attractive facilities held in this city. The business houses that were mentioned by the writer are not the model type of business houses conducted by Negroes of this vicinity and the same national reputation. So much publicity is very unfair and unjust. This city boasts of a large number of professional men and women. Some of them have won a national reputation. All of these people were booed. The attack upon Lynchburg College is very unfair. Better relations could not exist between two schools of opposite races that are between the University of Southern California and Lynchburg College. At the particular meeting mentioned in the article, Negroes segregated themselves. They were told at the door that they could occupy any seat that they wished It is the desire of this writer that Mr. McMillan return to this city and make a real study of conditions here. I am quite dubious if the same type of report would be made. Frederick Douglass' Last Public Utterance In Baltimore Was At The Commencement Of The Hi School Which Bears His Name. To The Editor: Frederick Douglass' last public utterance in the city of Baltimore was in 1894, as the commencement of the High School which now bears his name. Among other things, he would mention that occasion: "The colored people of this country have, I think, made a great mistake of late in saying so much of race color in our society, and we have the other motive of their efforts and actions. I have always always attached more importance to manhood than to mere identity, and we have a variety of modern colored leaders about race pride, race love, and race effort, race superiority, race men and the like. One of the most important demands for not being a race man. The object is good, but the method is bad. It is an effort to cast out Satan by Beebleeble. We are now creating us to earth have their root and sap in this narrow spirit of race and color, and we have no more right to foster it than we should never forget that the abstent and most eloquent voices ever raised in behalf of the black man's cause were the color of man for man and for manhood they labored, fought and died. Away, then, with the nonsense that a man must be black to be true to the rights of black men. Let us labor to measure up to the high ideal interpreted by one of our group who rose to international eminence from the lowest depths.

DER A Virg One of the elements of success in raising children is to let them have freedom, but not too much of it. When a parent insists upon the child to climb, the child grows to love the parent because he knows that his parent is right. We do not give enough attention to our children when they are at home, where our children are, at times. One of the things which causes the most distress in families in many cities is the fact that parents do not know where their children spend their time.

RICHMOND, VA.—There is a private organization in Virginia, called the STATE LEGISLATURE. It is divided into two parts: a Senate with thirty-six members, a House of Delegates with one hundred members. In that the state has no functioning civil government the state has taken in hand the transaction of all matters of state. For this purpose it is now in regular session. Membership is limited to whites. Virginia is seventy per cent rural; Virginia is way down the scale in literacy; Virginia is way up the scale in narrowness and prejudice.

Virginia is seventy per cent rural: Virginia is seventy per cent urban: Virginia is way up the scale in narrowness and prejudice: Virginia provides all for whites, giving Negroes what is left: the weird private society perfectly reproduces in itself the life of the House Of Delegates Better I am convinced that the House of Delegates is an improvement over the Senate and should be called the "Upper House." It has four women members, the Senate has none. It celebrated Lincoln on April 15, 1865, when each member's desk an ink blotter, advertising a MASSACHUSETTS insurance company, the Senate members' blotters are blank. One member of the House was seen with an American Mercury, no such object was seen in the Senate. Some of the House members are not members of the Senate. The Sagegent at Arms in the House directs Negro visitors to the farthest corner, with kindness, in the Senate the keeper is not so kind, nor does he have to be. The Stature of Patrick Henry is just outside the Senate, he is not behind thirty-six members must stop by every morning for inspiration: it is very fashionable to "Patrick Henry" on the floor. I am convinced that the House of Delegates is an improvement over the Senate and should be more men members, the Senate has none. It celebrated Lincoln's birthday, the Senate would not. It carries on each member's desk an ink blotter. It is a giant pony, the Senate members' blotteres are blank. One member of the House was seen with an American Mercury, no such object was seen in the Senate. The human, they had comic papers on their desks. The Sargent at Arms in the House directs Negro visitors to the fartherest corner, with kindness in the Senate the keeper is not so kind, more kindly. The Stature of Patrick Henry is just outside the chambers. A majority of the one hundred thirty-six members must stop by every morning to see the fashionable to "Patrick Henry" on the floor. Chief Job Talking The Society seems to have as one of its chief functions training in speech-making. So patient are the group that they listen uncompromisingly, confidently and with confidence of receiving hearty congratulations, regardless of the content or manner, so long as the race question is left out. The Richmond dailies and the "STATE LEGISLATURE" form a secular body of speakers in order to sell the papers; the speakers quote and discuss the papers, in order to be further quoted. Around, around and around they go. If this practice continues the "Society" member be beetle think and slay the lovers law and will be able to rush in and establish a government. Taxation Without Representation One hundred and thirty-six white men and women are deliberate in the interest of 1,750,000 white Virginians. 750,000 Negroes are taxed but have no say. The organization three hundred husky policemen are paid to protect 130,000 white people, and to WATCH or neglect 70,000 blacks.

BY WILLIAM PICKENS I have a personal use for jails, and I have not a very wide experience for our comparisons, but of all the pails we ever looked into, this Georgia Street Jail is the most useful out as home-like any jail may be. The women's quarters, in the care of a colored policewoman, Mrs. Morgan Robinson, was a mess and she kept her home. We kept her home. Take note: a colored American woman is in charge and white, colored and Mexican women are in charge and the slightest segregation, in this jail. In other words, the folks in jail could teach a good lesson to the people in jail. The young white man who is the head jailer, is a human being, and he and this colored "matron" treat the men in jail better than human beings, into better like human beings, they say that they have no trouble. Music 'Marked' Blind' Boone KANSAS CITY. — Declaring that the press has published numerous inaccurate stores of the life of Blind Boone, musical prodigy who died last summer, the press quarter century, Dr. O. H. Simpson, white, made public last week what he terms the true story of the blind musician. Dr. Simpson discredits the story that Blind Boone was a descendant of the pioneer, Daniel Boone, declaring that he was the bandmaster of the Union army and a race woman, "Aunt Rachel," who was Simpson's family washerwoman for a half century. A physician said in the Kansas City Call. "Marked" Before Birth "Boone's father forsook his mother after he was mustered out of service and knew nothing of his son's early childhood. Neither did he take any account of his own life, spite of many accounts to the contrary which I have read of late. "Boone's mother was passionately fond of music. She constantly sang camp meeting medleys of the soul and camp wherever it went, cooked and washed clothes for the soldiers. "After her little boy was born, it was noted that he had a constant swaying forward and backward motion, so it seemed time to music. The thousands who have heard Blind Boone play will remember this trait as being very noticeable even when he was at the piano. Actually, he was a natural influence which was responsible for this tendency." First Instrument Boone was given a French harp or mouth organ by a white woman and then it was iterated it completely within a few days, according to the version given the doctor by the musician's mother. He then became master of that instrument. Made Fortune The blind prodigy was known throughout the United States and was said to have been worth $350,000 last summer when he retired. No one knew the family name of Boone, according to Dr. Simpson, the geologist, support team member. But he took it one of his mother's masters. The name of Boone's father is unknown. Jake Heywood Braun in N. Y. World reviews Claud McKay's "Home To Harlem": "Nothing in this fine novel served to shock me, but I must admit that out of it I took some terror. Few negroes in the book have taken the concept for all things white. Neither the author nor any of the characters in his book seem to have been touched by the teachings of Jim Brown, Negro to accept his lion and make the best of it. McKay writes of his hero Jake and say, 'He preferred white folks' hatred to their friendly connection. He is strong and aggressive, while their friendly contempt made him ridiculously angry, even against his own will. When Jake follows the trail of a saxophone down into some cellar I have the same feeling which I have known when touring Harlem. The energy of the inhabitants and their zest make me feel like a black and brown man slouch out to the floor I take no pride in being Nordic. I know I cannot dance or sing or laugh or love music. I am not a man who increases my distress is the conviction that they know it." Modest "Abe" Hon. Michael Hahn, My dear Sir: I congratulate you on having saved your name from the free-state governor of Louisiana. Now you are about to have a convention which, among other things, will probably be a great success. I barely suggest for your private consideration, whether some of the colored people may not be let in as. you are not allowed, especially those who have fought gallantly in our ranks. They would probably help, in some trying time to come, to keep the freedom of liberty which we have freed. But this is only a suggestion not to the public, but to you-alone. Very truly, (Signed) A Lincoln." Stiver's Row Stivers Row is the Mayfair of Harlem's Black Belt. It is a row of fine homes, originally designed by Stanford White, on 130th street, running westward from Lenox avenue and the park, never achieved by colored people the world over. Here may be found the creme de la creme of perhaps the cafe at the corner, and there are homes where butlers in uniform answer the ring at the door. And there are maids in white caps and aprons as a part of the household person. There is a legend it requires an income of at least $5000 a year to reside on "The Row." Among its residents are the barbers and surgeons, voice teachers, authors, stage luminaries and others who have prospered. Florence Mills was preparing to buy a mansion there. The occupant of one house is a Negro said to have made a half-million. Along the pavement may be seen mezo-tinted ladies with their Pekes, Poms and other fashionable kitchens and lived limousines at the curb are not unusual. cause she served a little wine to her boarders. She had not long been in the country, and in Spain where she boarded, the white women would act if hospitality and s. virtue. It was interesting to note. — perhaps it was a mere coincidence of the days, the white women, the white women, the white women, and that while the white women were mostly there for bootlegging or shoplifting, the colored women were there, mostly, for some street charges, and that while the colored women as young women. Two different turns against the economic handicap; stealing or prostitution. The officer said to the "clearest" the colored girls, physically, were the colored girls; that they are washing, —washing their clothes or their bodies, —except one portly middle-aged woman, almost forced to take a bath once in a long while, declaring that if she "washed" and kept still, she would "catch cold". Being in jail, with no chance to recover, she had decided not to bathe again until she got out. But as her term is sixty days, the offiaries of the other inmates violently attacked her, and she used pressure on "auntie" in defense of the rest of the colony. DAY BY DAY BY WILLIAM N. JONES The CHICAGO WHIP, perhaps unwittingly or perhaps with an uncontrolled zeal in behalf of the Pullman Company, stretched its effort too far last week when it blamed unemployment and the losing of race jobs on the efforts of the Pullman Porters to organize a union. Under a streamline caption across the front page it says, "Pullman Porters' Union Kills Employment in Southern States. Undoubtedly the "Whip" headlined an analysis of the present unemployment far enough to know that it has caught as much or more white labor in its grip than colored and he is far off on his history of the white men and women into many jobs once held by colored people in the South. This movement so far anti-dated the Pullman Porters' union effort that the two no possible relation to each other. Turning to the editorial page the paper further justifies its stand against the porters' union in statement 11. The porters' opinion has been proven by the present economic condition of the country, that finds the black worker seeking work everywhere. In addition it states that black laborers are diplomatic and strategic thing if it aligned itself with white capital." For a sheer lack of intelligent grasp of the underlying factors in the present world wide struggle between workers and capital, this book is the most amazing that this writer has seen in public print. Let us take for granted that the editor of the WHIP is in earnest and that it is not the vote of the most hands of Jacob, what does it mean? Complete Surrender Bolled down to its essence, it urges a complete surrender forever to the capitalistic theory that capital has a right to organize the economy. BOR SHALL HAVE NO RIGHT TO ORGANIZE TO STOP THAT EXPLOITATION. If the editor of the "Whip" had lived in the days of slayery capitalism, it would have been a diplomatic and strategic thing for Negro slave labor to align itself with the slave owner rather than the forces which went through the slave trade in a bloody war to stampe it out. The maternal grandfather of this writer did that very thing and he himself had given himself, had a soft job given him in slavery time by that master. And going back to the "Whip" editor's lack of proper analysis in the present unemployment, we note that it is only in the unskilled trades AND THOSE UNGANIZED, that employers are laying off and cutting wages to suit their own needs and protect their swollen fortunes. I wonder if he knows that it is such places as the Virginia coal industry, where the railroads label has "done the diplomatic and strategic thing" as align themselves with the employers instead of the worker, that the most brutal working conditions exist. On The Railroads I wonder if he knows that in the highly organized locomotive engineers and firemen brotherhood, there has been not a single layoff; not a single cut during any industrial depression, but a few that have granted that it must provide these depressions in a way that will share whatever prosperity it has had with these organized work In fact, it is the present practice of capital to take all the big profits during good times and throw the burden of depressions to wage workers in times that have brought about such a country-wide unemployment as we have today. As to the Porter's union, it must have been known from the very beginning that there would be a fight and that in this fight some must suffer. No group of people has ever broken through any restrictive barrier without lightning, sacrifice and in many cases the shedding of blood. IF EVERY LIVING PORTER WENT DOWN TO ECONOMIC DEFATAL IN THE BEEF BOOGLE, THEIR JOBS; IN THEM THEIR JOBS; IF TEN THOUSAND MEN AND WOMEN WENT HUNGRY A FEW DAYS ON ACROSS THEIR WORK, HAS ACCOMPLISHED ENOUGH TO DATE TO JUSTIFY IT. In the first place it has brought to the front a new Negro spirit in the labor world, just as we have done in the world. In an important industry African Diplomacy Mosheh, Basuto Chief, a hundred years ago had greatest success in the battle of the land against the encoaching white man. This he did by very skillfully playing off the British by each of them, and by each in turn—it was not altogether the white man's fault, for the Basuto were inveterate cattle thieves On one occasion he beat the British troops, headed by the Governor in person. Most African chiefs in such circumstances would have lost their heads and boasted arid and wilde lands, and second and stronger punitive expedition. Moshesh, on the contrary, sent the Governor a letter which Dr Theal, the great historian, calls "the most important document in South Africa,"acknowledging defeat and demanding terms of peace. The Governor was only too glad to sign a treaty leaving the Basutio territory intact, and to march off with them. Ten years later Moshesh, beaten to the last gasp by the Dutch farmers of the Orange Free State, suddenly claimed and received protections from the British and British engaged in furious mutual recriminations as a result. Moshesh stood high and dry above the tumult. The result is that his great grandson, today rules a terrace in which no white man owns a foot of land. Pullman Porters Lacks Grasp Of Workers Problem Complete Surrender Analysis Of Unemployment On The Railroads What The Porters' Fight Has Done it has pulled up the stakes and set them forward. Company Conceded And though not ideal in its organization, the Pullman organization has already made the company its first line trenches and concade a point of two which will add millions to the wages of the group. But aside from their individual status they have set going a force which will inevitably vitalize other forward movements along this line. When they win their wage fight they or some other organization will again pull up stakes and set them up again. There will be a promotion fight. And this fight is another industries. There is a concern son why the capitalistic practice of white porter of advance from to bottom of an industry while black porter are held at the bottom always. Struggle Important The whole question is wrapped up in the world wide struggle to manicipate working men and women in the negro particularly this struggle is wrapped for more than 75 per cent of the numbers are in the labor class. The wealth which must be built to support professions and advance art and culture must flow into the race through wages. The leader who raises a head to prevent the ultimate female empowerment can foster a just distribution of human labor, is stirring a dagger into his own vital. If capital must fight labor, let it allow it the same weapon that only a coward would do otherwise. Look And Learn Look And Learn 1. Who revised our present calendar? 2.

"Begu Sabreur" An evening gown "borrowed" from a cleaning establishment brings embassment to Billie Dove in her latest starring vehicle, "American Beauty," which comes to th Regent screen Monday for a three day engagement. The owner of the dress forces Miss Dove to take the garment off at a party, "American Beauty" is a romantic comedy picturing a working girl who pretends to be an heiress. Miss Dove is billed as the most beautiful star in the stars in screenplay. In a recent interview she gave a few of her beauty hints for the benefit of others of her sex. Here is her advice on attaining and retaining loveliness: "No woman can be truly beautiful who has been given disposition. Posture Most Important. Miss Dove believes posture to be more important than anything else. "If a woman walks well, with grace, poise and modesty, she is more attractive sans beauty than the most georgeous creature imaginable who has been an ugly gait." continued the actress. A beauty hint from Miss Dove is one of the simplest, yet most difficult things for the average woman to do. Drink lots of water; get at least eight hours sleep, take 15 minutes exercise every morning and eat few starches. "Naughty But Nice" No need pity the old maid because No need hey the old man because he has the old man because he COLEEN MOORE, who tops the bill Thursday and Friday: in "Naughty, But Nice," says that any girl can marry the man of her choice if she wants him badly enough, and she presents an extra gift, what she wants in this photoplay. "It's just a matter of technique," Miss Moore explains. "Women have always permitted men to think that they marched down the aisle to the butt, but many a widder she has been worn to tatters by the chuckles within it. "All these hard-headed bachelors who make such a point of having preserved their freedom actually are found them sufficiently interesting to really want to mary them. No man can escape his own wedding once a member of the fair sex has definitely and then put up her mind she wants him for life."

HAYES GRADUATE PIANO TUNER Organ and Player Repairing GRADED MUSIC LESSON SERIES 559 BAKER STREET BALTIMORE, MD. --- MEN TAKE WOMEN'S PLACES IN ANNUAL ART CLUBS' BALL No Women At Art Clubs' Annual Formal Ball Blushing Chinese Goddess, Who Made His Own Gown, Is Crowned "Queen" Page Eight A sweet young thing attired in a $200 gown of red satin and velvet trimmed in gold braid and rhinestone with a towering pagoda headstone of the same material, was adjudged by common acclaim the Queen of the Art Club Ball, where men in feminine attire danced with the musicians at the Elks Club Friday night. "I represent the Chinese Goddess," lisped the dainty impersonator in a husky voice, puckering his bearded lips and revealing his even white teeth in a girlish smile. "I made it all by my little self," he continued, pausing to powder his hair, pink puff which he coated in a gold vanity case, with a delicate wrist. "I got the idea from the movie of that name; the reproduction is perfect. It tooke me several months to complete it, and I am a bit proud of my needle work," he blushed modestly. The Goddess is a native of Philadelphia and travelled all the way from that city to take part inimore's annual gambol of the fairies. While the goddess represented daintiness personified, modesty worthy of a virgin, and as retiring as a 15-year-old village lass, there were other types of sex, the most sex personal of the uneducated sex. For now there were the two frivolous little flappers from Washington, the one in the pink close-fitting crepe de chine knee length skirt with a shoulder flower of red and flesh-colored hose that were rolled, and the one in the green dress that was in black and being long enough to fleece glimpse of the rosette garterts and—yes—teddies, when she crossed her legs in a devil-may-care fashion. How cerefree, how happy how utterly irrespective they were as they waltzed and fitted skirts and reclined in the arms of their none-too-male, male companions. "Please don't insist upon my dancing this one," they would implore wistfully, "honestly I am so fatigued from the last." "You big, bad, brutal boy," they added as the escort persisted and miffed from their chairs. "You have no consideration for a girl's feelings at all." Then there were the matrons. Elderly settled, motherly old ladies, clad in their conventional homelike dresses with their wigs powdered a bit to represent their increasing years, who sait out of the house with their feet courted and watched the young folks enjoy themselves. Black Velvet There was one rather stout well-proportioned matron who resembled an opera star in her gown of velvet that she wrapped in a sweeping that she carried on her arm while dancing. There was a buxum blonde in a pinkish filmsy clinging wig and a headress of beads that kept hiswig intact. There was a tailor looking indoors in a swallow-tail wowing and rose in his button hole, who later in the evening discarded his masculine activities completely and shashyhead up and down the floor with his hands on his hips saying, Ah hal I had everybody fool you. You had it as a man. "No bourn thought, so I There was also the bald-headed little short man in the tuxedo who walked up and down the side line imploring the nice looking young men to dance with him. "Don't slight me just because I haven't got on a dress," he said pitifully. "You know what I am." Caller of Other Cats The other referred to each other as Miss or Mrs. They inquired about the other's husband in a matter of fact way, but when an unpopular person's back was turned, they referred to her as that "cat." And if the party happened to be stout, it was "that cow." About 200 were present. Of this number, 75 were dressed as women.

German wrestler, in their bout here, Friday night, but after 35 minutes and 21 seconds of grappling, found himself pinned to the mat. In the early part of the bout the Absynsan and the German down times, often tossing him around the ring, and at the end of 30 minutes' grappling, looked like a winner. The two men fought almost ferociously, but finally Skilat got his double grappler, suffering pain, was forced to raise his hand and acknowledge defeat. The crowd, however, was with Ski, and he received a great ovation at the end of the match, while hoots were heard when the German was d-clared over. For the match had been scheduled for 45 minutes.

BOSTON, Mass. — In one of the most exciting and roughest games on a local basketball court this year, the traveling unit of the Quaker City Elks nosed out the famous Renaissance Club, of New York City, 27 to 26, Thursday. The game was played before an overflow crowd in Scenic Auditorium and was a see-saw affair throughout, neither team having more than a two-point advantage at any stage of the game. The contest was staged by the New Yorkers and they came out of a controversy over the mythical title of world's colored champions. The Quaker City quintet has played 40 games in New England since January 9, wining 0 and losing 10; and have frequently been mentioned as colored champion. This seemed to arouse the fire of the New Yorkers who came to Boston to answer numerous challenges to the Philly lads through the daily papers. After much dickering, the teams took the floor last Thursday night, with the New Yorkers the ruling favorites, but they were treated to the greatest surprise of their lives. The younger aggregation from Quakerown out-played out-of-town opponents and marveled their more experienced opponents and the latter resorted to very rough tactics but to no avail. This marked the second game of the season between these clubs. Renaissance winning the first by a 32-23 score, the dead-lock will probably beb roken late in March or April when they clash in Philadelphia. THE BIG BLUES BUMP INSTITUTE, 27-14 BLUEFIELD G. F. P. P.

University star, was highly instrumental in the Violet's winning of the collegiate two mile race at the inter-collegiate games, here Saturday. Edwards was one of the outstanding stars of the meet and his performance aided in placing the Violet into the scoring column, only one point behind Harvard. At the Knights of Columbus games held at Indiana University on Wednesday, "Phil" won the "Casey 600" in the fastest time of the season, being clocked at 1.12 4-5. He was given a tremendous ovation.

Martin and Young, professionals from the Elks' club, were rung in by the Celtics in the places of Banks and Holly replayed the game in using these players created comment everywhere, not only because it meant last minute bolstering of their team, which is not good sportsmanship but also because the use of these paid basketball players endangers the amateur athlete in the game of all the other men in the game. Not a single man on either team or the referee is any longer an amateur under strict interpretation of A. U. rules and if challenged, could be liable for amateur competition, anywhere. Guarding was close during the entire game and Roy, usually a high scorer for the Frosh, was held scoreless from the floor. The first half ended with the Colts leading 12-10. The second half was fast and out, the score being three for Vernon and three for the game when he became too pugilistic. With the score standing 20-all, and with about five seconds to play, Contee snacked the sphere from jump ball into the basket, the ball dropping through the cords as the timer's whistle blew. In the preliminary, the Morgan Sox limped a team representing the Freshmen by the score of 13-7.

We are not taking up the good of sport protest against rences as happened last week. athletics that should be kept branch of sport. Professional place. But its place is certainly no There has been some discussion concerning the Celtics basketball team since their last two games, the discussion centering around the use of "Bill" Martin, and "Bob" Young. The players in question belong to the semi-pro� class as it is commonly known that both are members of the Elks' Monumental team, Martin being a regular guard, and Young, a reserve. These men have received money for playing basketball, which removes them automatically from the amateur class. In addition they are members of a team on which professional athletes play, which regardless of the fact as to whether they received compensation for their services or not, brands them as professionals. In the preliminary game Friday night, the Celtics playing the Unknowns, won, because of the playing of Young. Diggs, first-stringer on the Morgan Freshman team, also played with the Celtics on this occasion. Saturday night, the Celtics, using Martin and Young, nosed out the Morgan Freshman by two points, and here again, it was obvious that the work of Young and Martin turned the tide. Which all leads to the following. If amateur athletics are going to be kept up on an AMATEUR BASIS, then the use of such men may stop. It is a rather hollow victory that is gained by "tinging in" of seasoned and experienced players against the amateurs, even though the amateurs may be older in chronological age than their more experienced opponents. Furthermore, members of teams playing AGAINST teams using professional players are likely to incur injuries in jeopardy, so boys who are considered as professionals, or college boys who are planning on entering various schools and colleges will find themselves in a mighty embarrassing predation when they are asked on an A. A. U. blank whether or not they have played against professionals. They will either have to LIE or be barred from college competition. And it is a challenge to have what might be a successful collegiate career ruined because of the thoughtless participation in a game in which professionals took part. To win the game is naturally the objective of every team. But to win the game AT ANY COST seems to us to be a risk and highly objectionable practice. It is not kept clean, and with the prison cast upon these two players it is our belief that it would have been a much fair tessile of the Celtics ability had Martin and Young been left on the sidelines. We are not taking up the cudgel for any team, but for the good of sport protest against the repetition of such occurrences as happened last week. The department of athletics that should be kept clean we believe it is the amateur branch of sport. Professionalism is perfectly all right in its place.

LEAGUE Vandals And Capitol Club Fight Bitter Duel For Runner-Up Post HIGH SCORER UNCERTAIN Up With West, March 28th All teams in the Eastern League were busy during the past week getting tuned up for the major contests that are booked for the present and final lap of the pennant chase. Even though St. C. has the trophy clinched, there are other important issues that will not be decided and the curtain rings down on the 28th Second place is still in doubt, with the Vandal having the edge on the Vandal Club will edge the battle right up to the last whistle. Then the matter of the highest point scorer will come in for a great dal of contesting when Harry Jones of the Capitol Club faces the elusive Deck Seay on the Seventh at the Renaissance Casten Gloomy Coach Bradford will have the edge among three men included in the first five of high point scorers and that a St. C. man will ton them all. The Vandals of Atlantic City have truly hit their stride and they certainly will have something to say before the final song.

Second Victory The victory marks the second for the Vandals over the Greeks within a period of ten days, and the second home defense for the Greeks this year. The Greeks won the game and their passing and dribbling were perfected almost to a science. These factors, plus the ability of Todd Bentley, the defensive tackle, spelled disaster for the locals, who certainly had an off night. At times the game assumed the proportions and tactics of an early season game. Wyatt, Lewis, Hackett, Lawson and Thomas started for the Greeks, but it was not long before Capt. Joe Jackett, the defensive tackle, aid in stemming the rising tide of scores on the part of the 'Shore boys. "Elmo" Jackson outjumped Hackett and ran his opponent ragged trying to score.

"Johnny" Johnson Now Pastor Recalls How His Three Goals In Three Minutes Enabled Columbia To Down Yale At Basketball By J. Le COUNT CHESTNUT NEW YORK CITY. — From caging winning goals for Columbia to scoring winning goals for the "Lowly Nazarene" is a brief statement of the achievements of the Reverend John H. Johnson, former star center and forward for the Morningside Institution's varisty five, and now Vicar at the newly opened Saint Martin's Chapel, 112th street and Lenov avenue. According to the good young "Sky Pilot", however, there is no difference fundamentally, "First of all," said demand clearness in personal life. Train For Service "Second," he said, "One must train for service in both the field of athletic endeavor and religious service. It is necessary to be fit to win. You must be fit to win. You must be fit to win in all my life seen a bum who was a real athlete. A man may be careless as to his personal life and morals and flash at his heart. You cannot go the long route and stay and stand out. So it is in service for Christ," said the good domine. "Johnny" Calms Southerner In a game against the University of Pennsylvania Five played in the Columbia gymnasium, 1818. Captain Johnny was a southerner by birth, lost his head in the heat of the conflict, a thing not very very hard for a Southern white man do. He was a Neo-Nazi, and southern Johnny, who was playing for the Columbia Five. "Johnny" put plenty of reaction, and to speak scriptural language, he was a sarcastic, Jesus when he drove the money lenders out of the Temple in the days of yore, had on a thing on his mind, and Captain Peck, if he can be paged now, ten years later, will testify. Of course, the usual rumpus and publicity followed this event, but out of it all came a most interesting stand, taken to Ralph Morgan, the chairman of the committee directing basketball at U. of P. He took the position that "basketball was a game of so much intimate personal contact that it was unfair to expect a man like Peck, heir to all the prejudice, he was, because of his Southern birth to retain his poise in the heat of con test when opposed by a colored man. But, undoubtedly the fists of the hero of this little sketch did much to calm that Dixie rashness. No Play In Hi School Johnny Johnson prepared for college at De Witt Clinton High School and despite the fact that he was a basketeer of the first magnitude for Columbia in his Freshman year, he took no part in athletics at De Witt Clinton. He did, however, play some basketball with the colored fives that were so much the vogue in the amateur life of New York, at this time, especially with the old Kewpies of St. Cyprians, a team which defeated the Alphas, the Spartans and the St. C's of ten years ago. Johnson was the leading scorer for the Blue and White Five during his entire course at the school. He was the one first of our racial group to be seen in action on the courts of the Intercollegiate League, Paul Robeson and the other players, and same time under the Maroon colors of the Rutgers Five. Both, from the standpoint of physique, presented a sight guaranteed to attract the eyes of a Phidias, were a close-knit, big-boned youth, about 6 feet in height topped off with a buryal large framed head, with a forehead crowning that accentuates the contours of the entire cephalic region. In manner he was quiet, but with that effectiveness that suggested a wrold of reserve. Intensely human in his planning, no doubt realistic in his execution of his plays. Not so long ago he said to me: **Basketball Needs Agile Players** "Although basketball may not so easily be achieved, yet it is by far the most strenuous. It imposes the greatest all-around strain of any game. To be at his best a player must know how to make sure he is strong, to conserve his strength to function effectively the player should be able to work at top speed for 30 out of 40 minutes. I say only thirty, and the player must be high, for no man could do more." The great demand for the basket-ball player is AGILITY. It is not so much running, speed, quickness, nor wonderful sight, that all these may count. It is the ability of the player to handle himself, and quickly, precisely and effectively. “The trouble with men who train for basketball teams is that they spend too much time handling the ball instead of learning how to handle themselves — their bodies. Feinting, ducking, dodging, changing pace, side-stepping, and the like, are the essentials which should be stressed more and more.” These are the words of the Moringside star, who has also been one of the greatest keteers the Metropolitan area has produced. He has worked with the Five of the General Seminary, the York with the S. A. T. C. at Columbia, with boys' clubs under the Urban League, and with the crack fives of St. Cyprus. His Hardest Game At this juncture I asked the Reverend to recall the hardest game in the history of the collegiate career. Said he at once, "It was in the Columbia gymnasium in 1910, against Yale. " was playing center. We had all minutes to play against the big Yale pitcher, by seven points. "All at once I became desperate and realized that all was at stake, and that we must either harm or kill Oyel of Yale, was pitted against me at center. "Twice in rapid succession I got the jump on him, tapping his arm through the dotted through the entire Yale field and shot the goal. Then it was that Hammil was taken out and a great husky fellow, who cannot now recall, was substituted. And luckily I got the jump on him for the first time, and repeated the trick. One of my teammates was not the only one who just as the whistle blew the old Columbia had snatched victory from the jaws of defeat. Incidentally too the Rev Mr. Johnson decided in his expression of the spirit of fair play he found always exhibited by Yale teams against colored opponents. He treated all colored contestants that they had REV. JOHNNY JOHNSON the best of college spirit and were the best of gentlemen. He held it was also a high tribute to the Yale system of training. In sharp contrast to this attitude, he held, was the "mucker" spirit shown by Pennsylvania and Princeton teams against opponents of color. Speaking of athletics in general life values, just before we closed our chat, Reverend "Johnny" said, "The training is most valuable. The fight in an athletic contest is analogous to the fight in life. One great gift of the development whole-heartedly and goes all the way, not being a mere dabber and didtente, he will be well repaid. My personal preference and desire is to take them. Then let the athlete develop himself fully in that field particularly. Through this regimen will come an inbreeding and courage so necessary to life's lifes IN RICHLANDER SEMinary, he was born in Richmond, M. A., May 10, 1877. he is the son of the Rev. J. W.

J. — Student Council Five of Newark proved itself the class of Jersey amateur basketball and company ran roughshod over the Tital Bears of Orange in the finals of the Bordentown School Basketball Tournament, by a 41-20 count. The team was swallowed to swallow, after they had battled their way through the preliminary rounds by defeating Forty Club, of Atlantic city, and the Newarkers' form was all the more impressive, in that they played without the services of Tucker, brilliant center, and "Slippery Raymond" for the defeated Atlantic City by 18-15, for the lightweight title.

The victory was Lincoln's second this season as the Scholastics, it this season ounce of energy the Lions could muster to stave off defeat. The lead see-sawed several times during the second half and only until the last few seconds of another field goal, was there any certainty as to the victor.

Page Sixteen PASSION'S PRICE By Louise Camper CHAPTER XIII At the crack of the pistol, the eight tense figures leaped forward and struck down the cinder path. Away they went like mechanical dolls, postured alike — heads thrown back, chests high, arms and legs working like pistons. Each had a colored initial on his chest and a flapping number on his back. cardboard. They were white, and one black and because of this fact, perhaps, every eye in the huge bowl circling the cinder path followed the dark figure. Those who understood the science of racing nodded approval, as they whispered comments — "Wonderful form — note how he got away, lie a ball from a cannon —" "See the power in those thighs —" "Man, look how he runs, smooth as a motor, his gait is unyielding." Excitement through the crowd as the marked man breasted a Yale man. A roar went up, passed him. The Syracuse colors were now leading. The black runner of the University of enn, gained on the leader, although his pace had not changed. He gained and gained, so gradually that one could not tell when the gain started. They were locked now. They were running in front of a sector of University of Penn students. These rose as one man, the contending racers struggled past, yelled, they shrieked. Color was forged. They cheered him as he bore the color of their Alma Mater on his breast. Oars pandemonium cries that almost border on tears, the air. The black form lurched over the tape, right itself, then walked calmly away as though he had known all along that he would win. His muscles rippled beautifully beneath his sweat drenched skin. The stands went wild. "Rah. Rah. Rah. Three cheers for Lee." Cuts into the dash for the University of Pennsylvania. Up in the stands, Dick Lee and Van Masson dropped back in their seats, mopping their brows and laughing like hooraying Freshmen. Luana Lee between them, remarked, "I never knew so much noise could be made by just two men." We had to tell him "launched Masson. Dick jumped to his feet. "Say. I'm going down and see if I can see Curtie," and he vaulted the concrete steps and disappeared through the aisle. Masson and Luana watched, then were con- Masson and Duana watched the remainance events with little interest. As far they were concerned the Penn Relay Carnival was ended. At length the pole swings the lavelin throws At length the pole vaults, the javelin throws and disc throws were over, and the immense crowd filtered out of Franklin Field. Luana and Van Massen drifted along with them to await Dick in the car. Dick and Cutie came up together, Cuttle waving down congratulations with a confident, "Shucks, I could do that little thing any day." He took a look at the car in which Luana and Masson were seated. "Say, who's boat is this?" "Mine," said Dr. Masson. "I just began to see the cash to afford one. This is her maiden trip to see you win the Penthalion." "Nifty little trick" commented Cutie. "Nice little boat. Say, think she can go as far as New York?" "Why shouldn't she?" Masson wanted to know. "She's new and equipped with new shoes." "That's fine," commended Cutie. "Come on be a sport and run me up to the Big Town tonight." What, tonight?" echoed Luana, Dick and Masson together. "Sure," said Cutie. "Not six o'clock yet, and four hours does it. Then the night's all our own and you can drive back to Baltimore tomorrow morning." Dick interfered "Don't do it, Masson. he advised. "Cutie only wants to have a big night and see some of his wild women." "Right for once," said Cutie. "That's just what I want. Who wouldn't? I've been in training all spring. No smokes, no drinks, no girls. Now. I want to cut loose and evenly." "Well, Cutie does deserve a trip after his victory. Anything you want goes, old man. Jump in and well go." Dick grumbled a bit. "Well, not being a professional man. I've got to get on the job tomorrow. So take me to the station first." He turned to Luana. "Are you going to New York?" Cutie answered. "I'm going to go." So they drowned Dick at Broad Street station, then turned the roadster's nose toward New York. There were four delicious hours for Luana Lee as she nestled between Cutie and Masson. Cutie was voluble in the days excitement and kent a stream of conversation flowing between himself and Masson. Luana leaned back against the cushion she loved. It was delightful to be there, so close beside Masson that now and then his arm touched hers, and the smoke of his cigarette drifted against her face. She closed her eyes. If this could last always! Too soon they were in New York. and Cutie guided them through the mazes of traffic to the board of Harlem. He assured them. "Now I'm going to take you where you can eat, drink and get dizzy. To the Garden of Love." "What's that?" inquired Masson. "Nobody wants me, any of your hangouts. Another thing. I don't want any love. What I want is something to eat." Call VE rmon 6016 The "Don't be a frost," advised Cutie. "This place is really the snake's hips." "Perhaps your sister doesn't care to go," said Dr. Masson, hopefully. Cutie blasted his hope of getting out of going to the night club. "Like fun she doesn't want to go," he said. "Taking Luana here is just like taking a cat to a dairy." They were driving down Lennox avenue, and had reached the Hundreds, when Cutie directed. "Turn right in here, Doc. They drew before a row of apartment houses, tall and dark with high brown steps with iron incredibly glossy floor after the red brick and white marble of Baltimore. The house showed no sign of being a entertainment resort. They walked inside the marble foyer and took a vilded elevator which dropped them one flight underground. Immediately a smart little maid appeared and conducted Luana to a luxurious dressing room. She puffed the silken pillows of a chaise "Best here, Miss," she pulled in her affected voice. "I'll freshen you a bit. You've had a long motor trip, haven't you?" She chatted sociably as she collected bottles of lotions and placed them on a table. Luana refused these. "Water first, if you please." Yes, Miss", replied the sibilian maid, and she turned the faucets on of a basin and dragged a screen before it. Luana gratefully disappeared behind it. The next quarter hour was spent in happily divorcing from the dux of the road. She then turned the maid came to a crack in the screen, asking. "What kind of a costume would Miss. prefer? Costume?" asked Luana in amazement. "Yes, miss," said the maid, in a rapid little speech that was like a high-powered salesman's talk. "You know our hostess believes that our costumes are made of real leather; they diarized their everyday caements and don carnival attire. You feel so much freer from convention, so much more able to play." "O. don't think that. Miss." plead the maid. "Let me bring you a costume. I'm sure you'll be delighted." She stripped away and in an instant returned. Over her arm she carried what seemed to Luana to be a handful of autumn leaves. "That all that you did, dismayed." "That she did," said the maid. She hurried away an inward with a pair of sandals and several metal serpents. "Just try it on. Miss. Isn't it a darling suit. There are so few who can wear this Eve costume. It's just your type. Think how delighted the gentlemen will be when they see you." Her words echoed in Luana's mind. "Think how delitched the gentlemen will be. An idea occurred to her, a idea that had been realized. Fanny's talk with her. What was it she had asked? "Appeal to him use the weapons you have to make him fall. Try it, you can't lose." Luana went and stood before a full length mirror and recorded herself thoughtfully. After all, what had she beside this beautiful body? Nothing. She appraised herself as a merchant examines his ware. For the first time in her life she was clad that she was beautiful. Glad of the delicacy appointed of her face. Glad of the匀ity of her eyes glad of the sheen of her hair and the shininess of her lips. Luana Lee's eyes plowed with resolve. She snapped her fingers. This was all left of her, wasn't it? Well, then, let Beauty serve tonight. Let Beauty buy what Beauty could pay for! What other opportunity could she hope to have? This was a purity a gift from the god, it had come about with no planning on her part. Luana buy what Beauty was just around the corner. Luana went hot and cold with the thought that tonight she must win or lose. She said to the maid. "I'll wear it." "Sit down, here. Miss," said the maid drawing out a chair before the huge vanity table. She appointed Luana's skin with a fragrant lotion then dusted it with a golden brown powder. She drew a delicate black line through her brows, she touched her nose with moist paint, and she painted her hair and braided it into two braids. Indian fashion, colling the serpents into each braid and fastening them in a circlet around her head. She fastened on the golden breastlets that fastened like a brassiere. Luana stewed into the tiny trunks that were decorated with colored leaves, slinned on the spine-healed golden sandals tied the ribbons, and she was ready. The maid caught her breath, flatteringly. She was. Luana knew it. She was more beautiful than she had ever been in her life. But she looked at her here thighs, her back at the obvious rise of her breasts and shivered. What would Dr. Masson think? She hesitated on the brink of the plunge. To walk out there like this she would grave scrutiny of his eyes — it was unthinkable. Then she too a deep breath. She must do it. This was her attraction her snare; she must display it to the best advantage. She asked the maid, "Could you get me a drink — of something?" The girl understood for she returned with a class of lioner which Luana drained. It must have been booster of the rankest sort for it scaled her throat and sent fears to her eyes. But in a few moments the nervous claminess was succeeded by a warm, confident elow. She burned to rush out to the lights the music and Masson floor. He was rigged up in something foolish looking even for a costume, and he looked mighty in embroidered expression of absolute consternation mounted to his face when he spied Luana, clad in nothing but high brown powder and a few invaluable looking leaves. I uuana created him with shrill laughter, ran to him and wound her arm in his. I uuana created him with shrill laughter "Do I look as terrible as you?" she asked. Afro American—Baltimore, Md.—South's Biggest and Best Weekly. Masson let his eyes rest on her, flushed hotly, then seemed to try to avoid looking at her at all. Luana sighed delightedly. Arm in arm they watched the panorama spread below them. The place had been converted into a forest — a Paradise. Overhead, the ceiling was dotted with electric stars; all around were trees and lattted arbors. There was even a giant covering that imitated grass, stretched over the entire floor, except for a circle where the floor gleamed smooth for dancing. And the guests! There were Egyptians, grape-bedecked Bacchus' grass-skirted hula girls, bare girls with no skirts at all, girls with leopard skins that must have come from baby leopards. So I knew we must have from baby leopards. There were white women, seeking the much touted thills of Harlem, whose shoulders and arms gave off a pale, sickly whiteness under the bluish haze of the stars. There were men, so perfumed, so immaculate, so made up that they could scarcely be told from the cropped hairs. All were dancing, or laughing, or petting. Somewhere a saxophone was grunting, a luscious violin was sobbing, a muffled drum was thumping. Captivating music, music that pleaded with you to come and dance, and dance and love! Love to go to plana Lee's head (and feet) and the spirit of the place seized her. She ran down the steps dragging the reluctant doctor by the hand, she darted in and out of trees and around cuples, and ended upon the circle of dancers. She pressed her lithe body against Masson's and let the music sway her which way it would. At the end of the dance a tall pirate reached and grasped her around the waist, but she wrenched herself away and fung herself back in Masson's arms — though she was his — whether he had her not! Seattered through the tufted grass were round tables on tinky lees a foot high. Around these the forest-folk squatted or lay to drink and eat. Luana dropped beside one of these and pulled Masson beside her. She wrigled over until she was close up to him, and flung one of her braids around his neck, drawing his face to hers. She poured her lips into a bud and whispered. "Why don't you talk to me, and play with me. Am I not a nice playtoy?" Masson jerked his head up, but she held him fast in the loop. "You have been drinking," he accused her. "Don't be miffed," she said "T'll get you some too." She snapped her fingers at a circulating waist and lifted two glasses from his tray. She held one to Masson's lips. He pushed it away angrily. "You know that I don't drink." "Bad boy." commented Luana. "He just won't play with mammal himself." She had to drink. Hed to do it to keep her nerve, to dull her sensibilities, to deaden her conscience. She drank it. The music took on a more dreamy quality, the lust-ridden cabaret seemed a true garden of love. She twined her arms around Masson's neck and held full on his mouth. He quivered at the touch and stiffened against her. She raised her soft eyes to his, and murmured. "Kiss me, kiss me, as you did Christmas, Just once more." The man looked at her slowing body, her pleading eyes and luscious lips. The veins swelled in his forehead, his hand clenched into tight hard balls. His voice was raspy with suppression. You've been drinking, Luana. I'm going to get you out of this place. Where's Cute? He let his glance go over the room. In one glaze was Cute Lee. a harlequin in a cow suit with a hooded tiara wrapped in a bow. He was the latest dancer in the Charleston. His less twisted in and out in disjointed fashion, a couple of flappers beat a tattoo with their hands and feet to keep time and a little circle of masqueraders gathered about to applaud. Small use to call on Cute Lee! At that minute, the lights blinked and darkened. From the bushes fitted a dozen or so dancing heads and they looked like big butterflies. They were all pretty, all one even shade of brown, all of a petit slenderness. They formed a semicircle and danced, leaping lightly on their bare feet, and flinning their veils in graceful waves. The orchestra, clad in snake skin tights, rined their glittering instruments behind the dancer girls. They trumpeted the lights the lights on entirely, and with vari-colored hues, so that the girls, nude, dancing in front of them were silhouetted sharply against their fluttering veils. In the darkness, Luana relaxed against Masson. Under the spell of the music and the dance he ceased to fight and allowed her to single in his arm, the dancers Cheek against cheek, the matched the dancers Junale music throbbed over the forest scene Passion sinned in the doors and held the reins Passion and Lust. The girls danced as native girls dance on the eve of marriage under the eve of their wedding. The girls moved the slow motion and writted to Lust's bibings. Luana Lee felt Masson's guard slinning. Instinctively, she knew that he was distracted by her nearness, by her revealed beauty, by her compliance. She took advantage of the darkness and the fact that the dancer was his higher instincts. They like, her appealed to a man's weakness. She crumpled in his arms, put her lips to She crumpled in his arms, put her lips to his ear. "I love you," she whispered. "I love you. Tell me, can't you love me — any?" The man was she— but his lips sought her and kissed her affection. She questioned him no more, but lay, satisfied in his climbing arms. This was indeed, Paradise and she its Queen. Her beloved showered kisses on her lips, and she was content, and victorious.

An inquiring reporter found not one dissenting note against the school board's no whipping rule. Home Abandons Rod Principal J. C. Briscoe, of the Vocational School, at Carey and Cumberland streets, says that the day of corporal punishment in the public schools has passed. Parents, not teachers or principals, are responsible for administering this type of punishment when the need arises. It is obvious that the school cannot be the victim of punishment which the home is relegating to the shelf. Parents Only Most children can be governed by moral suasion and the rod should be administered only in extreme cases, said Mrs. M. E. Carr, Prin of School 118. Argyle avenue, near Lanaville. Even then she believes parents should be the only persons to inflict such punishment. S. R. Owings, vice-principal: 02 THE AFRO CARRIES MORE NEWS THAN ANY OTHER WEEKLY."—Egenee Gordon, 1927 Survey.

UP-TO-DATE SPRING AND SUMMER 1928 e That Sparing t Spoil Child Belief That Corporal Punish- and Be Taboo School 112, says children are sent to school to be taught and not to be thrashed. If a child warrants such severe measures he should be turned over to his parents for chastisement. Mrs. Mary E. Rodman, principal of School 104, voices the same opinion in her belief that parents alone should administer the punishment, but never while they are angry. Boys and girls can be appealed to and this best that it is in them aroused. A boy hates to feel that his teacher is ashamed of him; he doesn't like to feel that he is below standard even when he is truly bad. Modern Etiquette Q.

In Darker Baltimore BY RALPH MATTHEWS Dear Writer Who Signed Your Name Your anonymity does not prevent me from giving your letter the kindlest consideration. I sympathize with you H. L. Concealing your identity is more a matter of self-preservation, protection, perhaps than modesty. From your letter, although you failed to mention the fact, I deduct that you are married. That you are heenpecked. That you have a grouch. Be not down hearted you are not alone. "Your name is legion." Looking through the AFRO'S society column, you say, you wonder why so many women waste so much time at card parties and bridge clubs. Looking through the AFRO'S society column you wonder, there are so many women get so much money to pay women to belong to so many clubs. Looking through the AFRO'S society column, you wonder who pays for the lavish menus that are served weekly. Your statistics showing that some women belong to seven clubs which meet as many nights a week may be correct. You think that this casts a reflection on the mentality of the Baltimore women. You think that the old saying, "Woman's place is in the home," is true in someone's home. In short, you think Baltimore women are fickle, lightheaded. You think something ought to be done. You think I ought to do it. Women Not To Blame Seldom, if ever, I do disagree with people who are kind enough to write to me. I shall abandon my custom and ask you to make kinder conversation H. L. I'll say that you are wrong. These goings on in the AFRO'S society column are not a reflection on our womanhood. H. L. but they a scorching indictment of our men. Like yourself, when I read that a certain bunch of dames were on every night the Daughters say like the King when he sat down on the lumberger cheese there is something rotten in Denmark. It seems to me that there is considerable henpecking going on around these diggings. Either the ladies who have "Mrs." before their names are children, which looks bad for our men, or else the old man is home caring for the children, which looks worse. In spite of the knowledge that all facts point to the contrary, I would hate to think that our male constituency has lost the backbone to say, "Now look here, this has got to stop. I would hate to think that our female constituency has lost the headwainer, after a hard dawn's work, hasn't the nerve to stick his derby over his bald spot while his storm and scire is washing the supper dishes and say, "Well. I guess he steps on to think that it is he who dons the apron, washes up the dishes, puts the children to bed while mamma puts on her knee high skirts and steps out with the girls. But reading the AFRO's society column as you did, H. L. I am slowly coming to the realization that this The Remedy What would I suggest as a remedy, H. L? Wh. there are any number of things Baltimore men might do. For instance, when their wives return at 2 A. M. t. might find a pore on the pillow saving if have taken the children and gone home to mother. They might charge cruelty and neglect and file suit for a separate maintenance. They might put on a new suit with a pretty neckline and try to get the housework done. They could neglect the housework and bring their calvainting wives to their senses. They could cry. If these methods fall there is always the one that never occurs to hepenpecked husbands of ston being hepenpecked. That.
