Professor Moerns Tells Of Experiences In Southern Jim Crow Car
RODE ON ELEVATORS WITH GARBAGE CANS
Scientist Asked To Vacate Apartment Because He Entertained Negroes
PARIS, FRANCE, (By J. A Rogers)—Experiences in the U. S. A. while "passing for colored" are given by Prof. H. B. Moerns, white Dutch anthropologist in the "Review of Nations" current issue, published in Geneva, Switzerland.
In Jim-Crow Car
"When he came to Oklahoma," he said, "the train stopped up of white and 'colored' cars. The white cars were" filled with passengers among whom were very rough and tobacco was nearly empty. Liking to travel comfortably, I entered the colored car but the conductor who was there looking over some papers said "Upon the basis of my studies, which had shown me the existence of white 'colored' people, I asked him: 'How do you know that I am not colored?' reply was. You do not look like it."
"Do you know that there are colored people lighter than you?" I asked him. "Yes, that is true. He replied, And without having to trace my ancestors back to five thousand years ago to find out if there was perhaps a Negro form, I was already passing for colored.
*Passing For Colored*
"After the conductor had left, another white man entered and sat to talk to me. Is there no more place in the white car, I replied: No. I cannot sit here; this is for colored people. That is like to stay here and talk with you; and he looked at me wonderingly. But you cannot stay here, this is for colored people. I replied, 'you must go to the white cars.' And he wawed."
"A little later another white man came in, put his luggage down, and sat down to talk to me. That is the conductor passed. He told the white man to go to the white car, which this white man, taking up his luggage again, did. Taking up his luggage, he asked you, 'You British subject?' My curt answer. No, I am not, took away, his further zest for information, and I travelled agreeably and quietly for colored people."

Dr. Fisher got into his car and started in pursuit of the stick-up man. He turned the car around and saw the street he saw no trace of the taxidax. He returned to the Colonnade and asked Dodson why he wanted him to stop that man. Dodson replied that the man had been caught and him took the receipts of the game.
**Bandit Walked**
The taxidax driver later returned and told the police that he misunderstood the instructions. Dr. Fisher ordered him to drive on. He also said that the bandit got out at Fifteenth and Irving streets, northwest, and walked toward Fourteenth street.

The crowd began arriving at two clocks, for before the mony was scheduled to begin. They were kept in the church by a squad of police. The church seats 2,500, but 500 more paced the aslies and the day of the pilgrims so that the bridal procession was delayed 21 minutes before entering.

PRETTY STENOG PATERNITY CASE IS POSTPONED
Miss Ella Evans To Face
Rev. O. S. Bullock In
Court April 23rd
JUDGE'S FATHER ILL;
COURT IS ADJOURNED
Courtroom Crowd Disappointed, Fear Some Secret Agreement
RALEIGH, N. C.; (Special)—Why was the case of the pretty stenographer, Miss Ella Evans, of Raleigh, N. C. against her former employer, Rev. O. S. Bullock, pastor of the First Baptist Church again postponed?
This case was on the calendar for trial day, and in the Wake County Court. The young woman says the pastor is the father of a child now a litter.
Will the case ever come to trial? Was there a secret compromise? The girl and her family refuse absolutely to talk, while the Rev. M. Bulkock's will be no second trial—that the case is definitely ended. If there was a secret settlement why then was the case carried to the courts in the first place? Was the case arrested? Who had him arrested? Was the object blackmail, as at first the preacher contended? Why, after the certificate was filed placing the blame to Bulkock? And why was Davis so eager to assume responsibility after he had been held two days in the county jail? Who had him put in jail? Where? When did he spend—new clothing, hats and shoes?
These are some of the questions asked in every section in North Caolina people are talking and wondering.
Is Case Ended?
Is the case ended? Many people believe it is. How could a man be tried twice for the same offense? The preacher, the preacher, and acquired justice of the peace? Didn't newspapers publish the fact? And didn't a score of letters published in the church's archives and acquired justice of the peace be guilty of such a thing? And didn't. Baptist pulpits rally around saying there was nothing to it. Then came a love-treat at the church, and begging be guilty of the charge was dead at the end of the world. was happy.
Many Dress Up
Then how could this fulfling thing rebel up and treason be so carefully buried? That the burning question; so on Friday morning thousands of Raleigh's锑屑 quit work, dresses up and treasures the mournings of his father, who was ill. So there was no court in session. Judge Gramer, the day before had adjourned the mournings of his father, who was ill. So there was no court, no trial and no answer. An examination of court records divulges the surprising fact that the nothing to do with the arrest of either Bullock or Davis.
Who Did It And Why?
On Monday, this is there, there seems to be general agreement. There undoubtedly has been a frame-up by somebody. The preacher claims there was a frame-up to black-mail him, while many others shield the preacher.

Y. M. C. A. AND STREET HOTEL ARE SELECTED
Ben Davis Says Georgia Wants Equal Accomodations
WASHINGTON, D. C.—Plans for the segregation of colored delegates who will attend the Republican national convention in Kansas City in June, are being carried out.
In a letter transmitting to members of the Republican national committee for their delegations, Charles F. Curry, secretary of the local committee on housing arrangements, advised the national committee that the emolced did include arrangements for the accommodation of Negro delegates.
Colored Names
Mr. Curry calls the national committee that if there are any Negroes in their delegations, they should forward their names to him so that he could turn them over to a committee of local colored persons that has charge of the housing of colored delegates.
He stated that "excellent accommodations" in a colored hotel and the colored Young Mens Christian Association be provided for colored delegates. The housing of colored delegates in the Street Hotel, a small colored place, and the hotel has the approval of the committee on arrangements of the Republican national committee.
Protests against the segregation of colored delegates have been received by the Republican national committee.
Davis' Letter
Bejamin J. Davis, Republican native, written Corrard Mann, chairman of the local committee, that he and the other colored delegates from his state, comprising eleven of Georgia's sixteen delegates, would expect all delegates to those of white delegates and that "rooms with bath and telephone were wanted." A copy of this letter was forwarded to William M. Butler, chairman of the Republican national committee.
Applesance
M. Mann replied to Mr. Davis that visitors and visitors the same courteous and considerate treatment which we always show our Negro population." Colored Republicans "regard this statement as applauded." Applauded Kept.
At previous conventions there has been no segregation. In seeking the convention, M. Mann promised Mr. Davis the liberal national committeeman for Mississippi, when he solicited their votes for Kansas City; that there would be no segregation and that the kind of hotel accommodations for which they were able to pay.

"Must Thompson, himself led the fight for votes in the black belt and at one meeting promised race voters to defend the Crowe-Thompson ticket, and send Madden back to the House of Representatives."
"It it better for the Negroes to have 150,000 jobs, than to have one in the hungress!" he asked at a final rally.

Lollipop's Letter
Frat Championship Series
The team, led by themselves Saturday afternoon in a splendidly fought and tremendously turmed on so strong that some folks came near bursting blood vessels. Alpha took 'em some and just could not stop. We said to say that the Alpha men, in rejoicing, almost reverted to the primitive, but goodness, they had a right, boys she' played down to the bricks.
Presto! — Final Of The Series
On Monday the basket-ball game was
played in the series as the Alpha and the Kappa
boys climbed for the last time. The
air was charged — the situation was
good. The Kappa was 9 points ahead. Then
Alpha. I think, went to some camp
meeting and returned with plenty
of spirit. The spectators were wild,
poor, and the Kappa game was tied, united, re-tied, and
a sensitive person ran the gamut of
his emotions, with chills and fevers
in his mind and down his spine.
In Washer Fork, so field play,
and the next time you could see,
the Alphas were three points
ahead. Then Kappas burst through
the field, playing plays, putting
Alpha on the defensive, and Simpson
did the rest.
Aftermath
Just as this game started, a very bright, enterprising gentleman had a little quiet, unobserving conversation with a woman in a door, and by eloquence and other more forcible means, relieved the cashier of about a couple of hundred dollars in usual cash. The gentleman vanished in the air — and who took up his scent smelled up his motorcycle against a fire, plie on his knees, and then causing the cop a gunshot wound in his leg. Some one told me that the vanishing gentleman who caused all this disturbance was from Chicago — but I don't believe

The story goes something like this: The driver of a car hot friends in the car running out on location, when one fly guy called out in a most undignified manner to one Mister Cop, whose feelings therupon became rumpled. The Mister Cop ran to the car and said that Mr. Promoter had no permit, so straightway to the house-gow he hied him, at which place other discrepancies were discovered and his troubles began to pile up. The Promoter, in his mid-ning, and he was permitted to travel among the hamuts of men — a sadder but wiser Promoter.

GA. POSTMAST'R SUICIDE, WAS $7,339 SHORT
Sought To Provide Funds For Family By Embezzlement
BEN DAVIS MAKES STARTLING DISCLOSURE
ATLANTA, GA.—Theft of postal funds and not forced contributions to the Republican party in Georgia is given as the motive for the suicide of L. S. Peterson, white, Democratic postmaster at Douglass, Ga. by Benjamin Jefferson Davis, Republican national committeeman for Georgia. Mr. Davis said, "The shortage of Mr. Peterson, "did not result from any forced contributions to the Republican party in Georgia. Embezzled $7,000
"The Post Office Department checked his accounts and found him $24433 short. His removal was ordered by the governor, that he would be removed because of this shortage, he embezzled between March 24 and April 1, approximately $7,000 of Government funds drawn against the Atlantic post office.
"After he had been notified that he would be removed from office, he drew a sight draft in favor of him, and he signed it for $3,000. On March 30, he drew another draft, payable to himself, for $2,500. On March 31, the third draft was signed for $2,500. The drafts were cashed by a local bank. During this time he embezzled $89.50 of other post fund, amounts to $89.50. Wife Returns $1,000
"Since the death of Mr. Peterson, ment agents the sum of $100, leaving a balance of $6,399.50 still due to the Government, not including the shortage of $244.33 for which he was paid."
"The daily press was in possession of these facts, but failed to publish, them, but continued to publish the drafts, and then sent them to murder and suicide by exacted donations to the Republican party."
Senators Called Him Honest
and Harris' were in Congress vouching
for the honesty and integrity of Mr.
Peterson, declaring that they knew
him personally and that that was an
important part of the session the sum of $1,395.50
which he had embebded from the Government
after he had been notified that his
honesty was complete. "These facts are complete
repudiation of any letter he may have
written to his brother or anybody else
that the Republican party proclaimed
his crime was aggravated. After he had been
found short in his accounts and ordered
removed from office, he embezzled
a clerk and killed himself. It seems
to me that after making up his mind
to commit murder and suicide he
embezzled the money, and then sought to mitigate his crimes by planting upon himself charging the Republican party with extorting money from him.
"Mr. Peterson was a Democrat. He was appointed by a Democratic president. A Democratic congressman kept him in office through two Republican administrations. Doug Townsend, a former township, Mr. Peterson never paid a cent to the Republican party for his retention in office."

Monument To Andrew Jackson To Be Unveiled Sunday
WASHINGTON—On Sunday, April 15th there will be unveiled in Statuary Hall, a monument to General Andrew Jackson, presented by the State of Tennessee.
Statuary Hall is the National Hall of Fame, where heroes status to the president of the Republic are placed. This unveiling brings to mind the second emotional period in American politics, which swept the "Hero of New Orleans" into the White House as the seventh President of the nation.
It also brings to mind the heroic conduct of two regiments of colored men who assisted in repelling the British invasion. Their conduct was so conspicuous that brave men from the War Department high immortalized the military service of his black troops.
This invelling also suggests an answer to have, overlooked. It is the appraisal of General Jackson's work in preserving the Union. John C. Calhoun, of "Nullificationist" which in effect, was a secession movement; and President Jackson served notice upon Calhoun to put your hand upon the Federal Union I will hang you higher than Haman." Calhoun heard and understood this gave the North fifty years in which he prepared for what happened in 1860.

NORRIS BILL A MENACE SAYS EMMETT SCOTT
Measure Would Limit The Jurisdiction Of The Federal Courts
POWER OF STATE CTS. WOULD BE ENLARGED
Peonage, And Segregation Cases Would Be Transferred There
WASHINGTON, D. C. Senate Bill 3151, a measure designed to limit jurisdiction of District Courts of the United States, is a menace, Dr. Emmett Scott, pointed out this week.
While the bill primarily appears to be designed to relieve the heavy dockets of Federal Courts, he said, this bill would seriously affect the rights of colored people.
He added:
"If a right under the Federal Constitution should be lost or violated in any of the States after this legislation has been passed, Colored Americans will have to go into the court for the adjudication of such rights. "Peonage, for instance, could not be interfered with at all by the Federal Courts if this legislation should be passed. The redress before a tribunal and in a actually condoned the offence was actually condoned. The passage of the law, the breaking down of the present legal bulwark of the Colored American.
Segregation Case
"Every step possible should be taken to prevent such legislation. Recent Supreme Court decisions such as the Oklahoma Grandfather Clauses Case, the Texas Primary Litigation and the Alabama Peonage Decisions, and the California Supreme Court's if this bill had been in effect. As similar legislation arises in the future it would be limited by the bill to decision by State Courts.
Bill Reported
"The Bill has already been reported by the Judiciary Committee of the United States Senate. The Reauthorization Act requires thetee are as follows: George W. Norrie of Nebraska; William E. Borah of Idaho; Charles S. Deneen, of Illinois; Frederick H. Gillett, of Massachusetts; Guy D. Goff of West Virginia; Arthur B. Robinson, of Indiana; Robert S. H. Robinson, of Frederick Steiner, of Oregon and Charles W. Waterman, of Colorado." Judiciary Committee Dr. Scott suggested that thesemen should be informed of the Senate's communication with at once and that letters be sent to Conressmen and influential friends of both parties calling attention to the result which would follow. The Colored Americans are concerned this legislation should pass Congress.

NEW YORK.-A Philip Randolph, head of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, denied press reports that he will resign because the Pullman Company considers him a Socialist and too radical. He said: "It is apparent from the expressed sentiment of the porters and maids throughout the country, together with the organizers, that there is definite opposition to my resigning in order to get recognition from an agreement with the Pullman Company. The belief is general that if the Pullman Company will recognize the Brotherhood if I resign, it will recognize the Brotherhood if I resign, if the men stand firm and fight harder than they ever fought before." Mr. Randolph will celebrate his 39th birthday April 15.
NEW YORK BAPTISTS JOIN BOYD GROUP
fluence Other Independents
NEW YORK. — Following an address by the Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, the New York State Baptist Association, the oldest association in the Empire State, united with the National Baptist Convention of America, Friday.
Three auxiliaries of the association, of which the Rev. E. D. Bowles is president and G. E. Stewart, secretary, cooperated in the union, and the act of this great body is reigned by Baptists throughout the country is fascinating in its significance. Not only does it greatly numerate the numerical strength of the National Baptist convention with which the late Dr. R. H. Boyd was a factor, but it is regarded as the originating of a wide movement of independent organizations not now officially affiliated with that body to unite with it.
The next session of the National Baptist Convention will meet in Shreveport next September and indications are that it will bring together one of the largest number of delegates in its history.
MANY IN HARLEM'S EASTER PARADE
NEW YORK. — Out of 260,000 Harlemites residing here it is estimated that fully three-fourths of them made efforts to attend some religious service, Sunday, crowding the scores of churches and requiring the presence of squads of police and detectives to prevent accidents and curb the pickpockets.
Police sergeants, commanding uniformed men from two precincts dotted the sidewalks here and there detectives were strung from 122nd street up to 145th street, along the route which the parade proceeded.
Many women who had not attended church services came from other avenues with their parlor pet pugs and also being in line. Many were the dogs that suffered under the feet of the throne.
Trouble At Salem Church
Salem M. E. Church, the place of worship of Harlem's elite, had the most trouble in handling the crowds. With the persons attempting to crowd the thematic edifice, ushers and detectives were beside and the aisles and galleries were filled to a dangerous point.
Society Parades
Without doubt, the fashion parade and the church throngs exceeded any in Harlem for several years. Cosimo I of Naples led the mode of the times and a few high of a bygone period were in evidence. The calm came in the late afternoon, when society retired to its pink tees and other refreshments and the underworld started on its frolics.
Two Killings
A double line had been thrown around the East side and parts of Harlem by Police Commissioner Warren in an attempt to hold disturbances. Only one homicide and taxicab killing were reported.

Nearly 600 attended the reception in the basement of the church, where children also served, and punch were served. The bridal party was served at a separate table—the bride cutting the big wedding cake. Miss Chita McCard, Baltimore, caught the bride's bouquet.
Names of the bridal party and a description of their gowns was carried in the AFRO-AMERICAN, last week.
Honeymoon
Bride and groom left Tuesday for Philadelphia, where the groom will recite some of his poems at the Urban League Conference and then to Atlantic City.
Pastor Cullen Talks
Explaining to his congregation his inability to invite them all, the News quotes Pastor Cullen as saying:
"This isn't my wedding! And it isn't Mrs. Cullen's wedding! This is the wedding of Dr. and Mrs. DuBois and its Mrs. DuBois wedding. I am not getting married and Mrs. there is not getting married So if there is any member the Church who feels that he or she has been overlooked in the issuing of invitations, it isn't my fault. Don't blame me.
"I was married a long time ago in One Hundred and — well, way downtown."
After he stated, "As for the wedding supper that is being held in the lower section of the church following the ceremony, remember, that isn't my supper! I'm not paying for it. And I can't invite you to come and eat somebody else's victuals.
"After the wedding the bride and groom will leave where we know." "The main auditorium will be reserved for the invited guests and New York City is invited to the gallery."

a few hours, as a colored man."
At California Dance
His first contact with colored people was in Los Angeles. When he attended a high-school dance in that city, he was the only two Negro students, young ladies, one of whom was playing the piano for the dance, and the other, her friend, who was waiting to go home with her, later.
He asked the teacher where were all the other colored students, and the teacher replied that they were away because, "a white boy will not dance with a colored girl, and a white girl will not dance with a colored boy," wishing to show them a better example he said that he went to the unoccupied girl and asked her for.
After this dance, he says, "The principal of the school came to me and said, 'Excuse me, but I wish to inform you that you cannot dance with a colored girl.'" However, my response was, "Did you not see, I can, and she danced very well, too," he said, you did not understand me.
"Yes," I interrupted, "and that is the reason, because I understood that I did this dance. And I hope it will be instructive for you, your teachers and pupils, or on what my point of education is." Social Equality in Atlanta "White people had told me. You should go to the South to know colored people. They live like pigs." "So my stay in different Southern cities and plantations brought me to the South," he said to people. But certainly many white people would be happy to live in such 'pigpigs' (?) as the splendid buildings and homes of many of the colored people in the South." Dining with the president of a colored college in Atlanta he said that the latent racism "that I with Americans should see this they might lynch me."
The Back Door
The writer tells of his studies among colored people in Africa, the West Indies, and Central America, and says that he finally settled down in Washington, D. C., to study the race question, where he had to handle the many issues, a count of receiving colored friends in the same way I had my white ones. But this was an illuminating experience. Not only did it happen that my colored friends could not enter the front door like white people, but they were not allowed to go into the elevator where the white people went. When they wanted to enter the elevator, there were a series of lower elevators under the main cage, this lower elevator being used for garbage cans and colored people.
"I several times enjoyed the sensation of riding colored university professors and doctors among these garbage cans, while in the upper elevator only white people and dogs were in the privilege of entering. It seemed to me that the lower in the capital of this democratic country a colored person was still considered less than a dog.
Forced To Move
"But I had a somewhat similar experience in an apartment hotel in the cosmopolitan city of New York. Here there were no upper and lower elevator sections, but there was a special elevator section in the back for garbage cans and colored people — or perhaps I should say, as New York is not a Southern city — for colored people and garbage cans." I write, after telling of his experience, that he told how he was forced to leave town to place because he had visitors of "all races," the great objection being against Negroes. He then gives a novel manner of getting rid of a lease that one does not like. I was informed," he said, "that if I insisted on having colored visitors, they would appreciate my leaving and never release me from the obligations if I were to leave people wish to be relieved of their leases. I advise them to give some interracial parties."
In The Churches
Prof. Moens also compares the Christianity of the white man with that of the Negro. "In the white churches where the brotherhood of man is supposed to reign it is an unhappy place," he writes of the white men. Whereas, in colored churches, brotherhood of all men is practiced: I have come into several colored churches without being presented, and always have been politely requested to sit in the seats, and even in prayer I was sometimes mentioned as a welcome visitor and a white brother, whose visit was appreciated. How much have churches to learn before they practice the brotherhood of all men."
Superiority
"When a race thinks itself superior it should make other races look its principles by should never demean its principles by should demean the others. The present conditions among the whites show that a superior race still has to be develop-

STORMY MEET AHEAD OF A M E CONFERENCE
CHICAGO, Ill., (PNS.) — "All roads lead to Chicago," where the General Conference of the A. M. E. Church will be in session from May 7 to the end of the month.
That this will be one of the stormiest sessions in the history of this church is seriously expected, and there is ample evidence of delegates and others an uneasiness and fear that something serious might happen.
The something feared is "revolution" which has been declared imminent, even by some of the bishops.
Bryant, Storm Petrel
The "storm petrel" of the whole situation is LTN. Bryant, head of the Sunday School department, connected and the leader of the reform element. Mr. Bryant has repeatedly and publicly accused the bishops of this church of graft and other acts constituting malfeasance and misfeasance in office. He has defied them and suggested that they indicate themselves by prosecuting them. Bryant's suggestions have been ignored all of which Bryant declares to be evidence of guilt.
If Mr. Bryant should present these charges to the General Conference and demand an investigation of them, as he is expected to do, then there will be a mighty stir. This largest following of any may perhaps the largest followup of any of the General Conference; he has the united support of the laymen and many of the ministers who, for reasons obvious, are like Nicodemus, secret disciples, "Watch Bryant." "Head off Bryant"; "Shut Bryant's mouth", will be some of the current slongus during the entire session. Lawyer Bryant. In connection with Ire T. Bryant also will come the attempt to place laymen on the episcopal committee a thing never before attempted in the A. M. E. Church. The argument will be, that it never was done before; that it will mean an encroachment on the rights of the ministry; that it will mean that the laymen will be active in investigating the adultery of bishops, the character of bishops, and in the presence of bishops, to the various districts.
It is Mr. Bryant's contention that the laymen are entitled to a place and a say in the affairs of this super-important committee since they supply the "sinews of war" for the church. He contends further, that the bishops on this committee it would not be possible to "whitewash" where bishops are accused of wrongdoing. It is said that there are two, and perhaps three of the bishops favor the "conspiracy", but as a whole, the bishops are unalterably opposed. But the general attitude is, "We will wait and see."
*Carey-Gaines Controversy*
*The Carey-Gaines Affair* will divide the conference into two distinct groups: the supporting Bishop A. J. Carey and the other condemning him and supporting Bishop A. L. Gaines.
Sinai Temple Figures In
Sinai is reported by some of the Gaines church members. Sinai Temple property by the Bethal Congregation was due to hostility on the part of Bishop Carey, who could have saved the church the humiliation and the inconvenience, but would not because he was willing to see Bishop Gaines discredited. The leaders claim that Bethel folks refused. Bethel folks suffered the humiliation and the loss rather than accept the assistance of Bishop Carey, who is most influential in Chicago. These pro-Carey folk contend that the Bishop could have secured for the church the present place or one equally serviceable without cost. if the local committee, headed by Bishop Gaines had consulted Bishop Carey before they rushed into the contract to pay $3,000 rental for the armory in which the conference will be held, and so contention goes on at a merry ch
The Crux Of The Situation
The crux of the entire situation is the struggle between the two bishops, the Episcopal District by the coming General Conference, and the bitterness caused by this struggle will be evident in all the work of entertaining the conference.
On one side it is argued that Bishop Carey is needed over this district because he has such tremendous influence on the church in Chicago than any other bishop. From the other cann comes the contention that because of political alliances with corruption, Bishop Carey has lost his influence and his assignment to this district will be more important. These opposes affirm that Bishop Carey is purely selfish in wanting to serve this part of the work, while his supporters give him credit for the most altruistic motives.
Carey's Political Job
There will be thrustred job
also the question of Bishop Carey's
retaining his political position and his
place as bishop. Of course, nothing
will come of that, because there is
no law against such, and, moreover,
other bishops have other interests
outside of their episcopal work.
Beek To Cut Off Salary
But seek to make effort to
force Bishop Carey to give up the
salary from the position of Civil
Service Commissioner, or that which
is received as a bishop. That will fail
also, for Bishop Carey challenges the
other bishops to give up all of their
income from investments and interests
with which they direct outside the
bishop. This storm will
pass over, but the matter of the
district assignment will not be so
easily settled.
Morris Chapel In Its New Building
PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—The congregation of Morris Chapel Baptist Church moved into its new edifice on Tenth street, north of Girard avenue, and celebrated its eight anniversary beginning Palm Sunday and continuing throughout Easter Sunday.
The Rev. E. P. Harris, pastor of Mount Pisgah Baptist Church, preached the special anniversary service on Thursday the Rev. M. M. Zulo, a native of Africa and graduate of the theological department of Temple University, and the Rev. H. L. Sanders, of Milwaukee. Music was furnished by a quartet.
The Rev. I. W. Parrish, who founded the church eight years ago, is pastor.
MINSTREL PREACHES TO THE CHINESE
MINSTREL PREACHES TO THE CHINESE
SHANGHAI—E. A. Carter, American black, former minstrel "end man," "buck and wing" dancer, jubilee singer and vaudeville entertainer, now is a Protestant Christian missionary preaching the "oneness of all peoples" to the Chinese.
The evangelist came to Shanghai from India, where he asserts he converted 30,000 natives in two years. He arrived here with no money, three children, one of whom was seriously ill, and no prospects of income. American missionaries learn his story, but he distinguished declarations of Christianity and suggested that he might like to conduct a Christian service for Chinese. "For years before I ever saw China. I heard stories how things weren't any too good between missionaries and Chinese Christians." Carter said. "I don't know how true that is, but even so, with all this trouble and fighting out of trouble me. I arrived it didn't seem to me that the yellow and white men were getting along any too well.
"So when the opportunity came to me to try my hand here and see if I couldn't do something to get us all together and help the work of Word, I believe. It was command from the Lord. He saw it was time to do something and with the results we're getting. He was right."
Carter conducts daily revival meetings in native and missionary churches. The gatherings are attended primarily by Chinese alters, rather than deliverers seen in the audiences. The attendance is so large that crowds are turned away.
Yet Carter sings and preaches in a language that not one in 100 Chinese understands. English is the only language available to him and he delivers through a hard-working interpreter.
Occasionally Carter feels the interpreter is not translating things with the vim which they were originally delivered.
GE. Bee and give them the feel of what I say. He directs in the midst of a service.
In 1925 Carter and his wife left California for India, where she was born, and where she died. During the subsequent years, Carter conducted "independent" revival meetings in the western United States.

Tourists Camp To Be Opened April 15
STATE CAMP LOCATED ON NATIONAL PIKE NEAR NEW MARKET READY FOR SEASON
Camp Stafford, a site located on the National pike for the benefit of race motorists, will formerly open on Sunday, August 14, for a commencement this week by Irving Stafford, who was active in securing the site from the state.
Mr. Stafford, through the efforts of State Senator John L. Meyers, and State Road Commissioner, John N. Mackall had the site set aside last year but was too late to be placed into shape.
The camp will be equipped with all modern conveniences, including spring water, comfort stations, benches, tables, swings and shelters for rain.
The site is located on the National pike in the eastern edge of the town limits of New Market. This location was chosen after many others had been inspected.
YE WILL REAP WHAT YE SOW.—Be not deceived: God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For there that soweth to his flesh that soweth to the Spirit shall that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we reap, if we faint not—Galatians 6:1-2.

Company, Indiana Avenue at North West Street, Indianapolis, Ind.; obtain a box of this guaranteed preparation and start using it tonight. Your scalp will feel the difference, your hair will be naturally pretty.

"25 YEARS THE STANDARD"
BY J. A. ROGERS
PARIS, France. — Near the Jardin de Bellevue (Botanical Gardens) in this city there has just been opened a Mohammedan mosque that it is a dream of beauty. It is of the purest Moorish style with mosaic courtyards, marble fountain and steps over which water flows.
The interior is of carved wood done by specially imported workmen, some of whom were as dark as it is possible for human beings to be, while the finest carpets are on the floor. All in all it is a work of art such as even this city of art can be proud of, for it is doubtful whether it has anything more beautiful to show.
Morecanan Architecture With the Morecanan tower the building is of the usual one-story Morecanan type. The room in which services are conducted holds about five hundred persons. Like the usual mosques, there are no seats and no stairs, but occupying their shoes at the entrance. The cost is approximately a quarter of a million dollars, exclusive of the land, which was a present of the French Government to the North Americans for their services in the last war.
Guests Of Prince
At a recent festival, Mr. Tilden, an American Negro student at the University of Paris and myself, were the guests of Prince Wall Kahn, of the University of Chicago, for religious services, from which Mr. Tilden and I were barred because we were not of the Islamic faith, many kinds of African sweetmeats were served and a kind of honeyed drinks, the Mohammedan do not touch liquor. In reality this is the finest and most beautiful colored church in existence, or it would be so called in the Middle Ages, the worshipers are brown-skinned and with negro hair. Some of them are much darker than the darkest Negro one sees in America, which seems an exaggeration, but it is not. Seventy-five percent of the army. The head of the mosque, Tahir Effendl, is the complexion of

a dark mulatto. A goodly proportion of the worshippers are white North Africans and Turks, and as may be inferred there is no color line.
20 Cents Admission
The mosque is, or used to be open, to sightseers on Sundays at a cost of five francs (twenty cents) each. This sum went to the building account. I had visited it last June, 1927, when it was still under construction. At the angle of the building facing the Jamaica of Paris, I was much patronized by the Parisians. It is decorated in Moroccan style and one may sip one's coffee or take a pull at the large community tobacco pipe while listening to North African music.

TOWN ALL COLORED
Question Of Negro Division Of M. E. Church Will Arise Again, Ministers Say
WOMEN MADE DR. CLAIR
Wives Of White Delegates To General Conference Liked The Way He Prayed
That the failure to adopt the plan to request a separation jurisdictional Conference for the colored members of the Methodist Episcopal denomination in no wise detracted from the enthusiasm of the backers of the movement was evidenced in the Wednesday Ministers' Meeting at the Sharp Street Community House, where it was intimated that the question will be a live issue at the next session of the Washing Annual Conference.
The resolution was lost at the recent Conference which convened at Metropolitan Church here, when Bishop Locke, in a masterful address, discouraged the movement.
Dr. Ernest Lyon, in a heated address declare that the colored constituency were not even permitted to choose their own leaders due to the fact that the whites outnumbered them. Bishop Matthew W. Clair, he received the leaders of the wives of the ministers at the General Conference where he was elected liked the way he prayed. To the colored members at that session it was ont even known that he was a candidate. Dr Lyon declared, "Negro bishops should be their full, he declared, whereas white bishops are appointed to preside over race conferences. This order is never reversed, he said. Sign Of Manhood Dr. M. J. manhood who offered the resolution, declared, but when a child demands a voice in picking his own clothes it is not a sign of impudence, but a sign that he is beginning to think for himself and is developing manhood. In a similar demand demands a separate jurisdiction, it shows that they are awake to the demands of the future.
The time is coming, he declared when the M. E. Church, South, and Combine will combine and the colored members will be forced to take the step

3000 U. S. TROOPS IN REGENT DRAMA
COWARD BECOMES HERO
"The Patent Leather Kid", a emotional story of a pugilist who is drafted for the war against his will, but who emerges with a decoration for honor, comes to the Regent screen for honor, comes to the Regent screen for a four day stay.
Richard Barthelmess is cast in the role role. Not only does he do some fierce fighting in the trenches but he also puts on a speeched rope, the warrior ring. The historiatic dumpey through the ropes" scenic in the fight between Dempsey and Pipo is reproduced in the film. "The Kid". Barthelmess knocks Micker McMinn, who is in real real pugilist, through the ropes only in the next
The spectacular war scenes in this picture were made under the supervision of army officers and more than 300 soldiers participated. In addition 1,000 civilians made the German government does not permit its troops to put on the uniforms of foreign nations. The U. S. gave use of its men and equipment for this special which records the gallant work of the troops in the French and German wars. We were spent in Lincoln, Washington and several other military encampments.
**Regeneration**
"The Patent Leather Kid" is the story of regeneration. It shows the humble private who was a prisoner with a sack and a slacker. He is joined into service against his wishes and is a coward in warfare, having his country until his buddy is shot. This combined with the love of a patriotic girl, who is dancing in the Y. A. huts brings the transition about and he emerges as soldier.
"The Patent Leather Kid", a sensational story of love and honor starring Richard Bresson, sheenness, comes to a screen Monday, for a four day engagement.
Coming Photoplays ROYAL
The Wizard", "Man, Woman And
Sh", "Thirty Years Later".
Assembling what is considered one
of its most outstanding bills of the
season, the Royal Theatre will pre-
vent next week a program designed
to appeal to all types and tastes of
patrons. Monday and Tuesday will
bring Emmond Lowe in the Theatre,
a beautiful girl disappears in
the midst of a party. Following the
Wizard, John Gilbert will be start-
ed Wednesday and Thursday in
man. Woman and Dog on
Wednesday and great tree production.
Thirty Years Later" will be screened
Friday and Saturday.
Fear, possibly the oldest enemy of man, is cleverly overcome by Edmund Love in "The Wizard." In this hair-striking story he sets out to conquer the mysterious prowler who commits the murders and fills the darkness with snails. Richard Frazier and Oscar Smith race comedians, appear in important comedy roles in the play. Smith and Frazier, who have worked together in several pictures are termed the man and deft of the screen one minute after the other extremely short and stocky. "Man Woman and Sin" has its locale in Washington and its plot is built about Gilbert as a newspaper reporter. Always seen as a Don Juan on the screen, Gilbert appears in ready-made suits instead of attempting to imitate the fashion nate.
The great Embassy Ball, possibly the Washington's largest social event, is included in the scenes. Diplomats army officers and society belles act as the audience. Jeanne Eacols, who plays the feminine lead, appears in a colorful series of frocks. One is an evening gown of pink tulle, with fitted bodice and a fuffy skirt, with many ruffles. Other gowns said to be the last word in swankiness among the elite are included. As the society editor, she is seen in the center of the colorful and spectacular social events at the Pearl Theatre. Oscar Michaux's "Thirty Years Later" has been given the biggest reception received by any of his photobooks. The picture played to the biggest business in the history of the Pearl Theatre, Philadelphia, during a week's run there. The prose was adapted from The Turtle, by F. D. Downing, celebrated playwright who died only a few weeks ago.
The gripping plot hinges about mixing of the races. George Eldridge Van Paul, wealthy clubman plays in love with a race girl and a businessman, her. Later he finds that he is the son of his housekeeper, upon whom he had looked with scorn because of her color. The plot is repellent with action, with all the brilliance and envy capable of being created by racial differences and wealth. In the cast: A. B. Comathiere, Mabel Kelly, William Edmondson and Mme. Robinson.

The Lichman organization now generates the Howard and Rosalia, in Washington, and the Royal, in Baltimore, as combination houses, and the Lincoln and Jewel here as picture theatres. A booking organization has been effected with the Pearl Theatre, Pula, by which shows will be given an engagement there when booked for the Royal and Howard. My business is the larger houses in the East. Playing stage attractions are independent and this new comedy is being regarded by persons in theatrical circles as the beginning of a current.

A ventilating system costing $9,000 will be installed, and other features will include a motion for drapes and sashes for men. A $5,000 pipe organ will provide music.

Miss Smith was greeted vociferously when reviewed. There is Louise Williams. She, of the long curls in this bobbed female age, scores in "I Can't Believe That.

Teddy Frazzer does some clean cut stepping in solo style in addition to taking part in the now universal blackbottom. The chorus rates high and the mean grade or its work. A variety of tunes is well displayed and the dance routines are winning encores.

This formula, the critic writes, is used by Miller and Lyles in all their shows. The writer says of the pair's work:
**Equal Got League**
"It is a scene in which the head men of the Bot League team organization formed by two young men to get rich—reach the peak of their wealth. Where poverty had stared them in the face and where they were lucky to have fried hominy and scrapepie for Sunday dinner, that meal was made table with a set of lamb peas platter hot coffee and other ordinary delights.
**They Are Indignant**
"Instantly there is indignation.
"They are now loaded with money. They regard it and their indignation mounts.
"Is this rich man's food? No. Throw it out."
"Out it goes."
"The eyes fall on the wall clock.
"Is that a rich man's clock? Throw it out."
"The carpet, furniture, pictures and other household furnishings are viewed. They are not, it seems, the proper acquaintances to the home of a rich man and so, in as knockabout you you'd want to see outside of battle royale, they are thrown out the window."

STAGE REVIEWS
"Blue Baby" At The Royal
wwealth; his league to see that every one in Jimintown has 'got equal' seems to have succeeded, even if it did require the dynaming of a bank to assure this universal success. He returns the dynaming to eager keepers return, reporting that all the storekeepers, too, have become so wealthy that they have shut up shop and won't sell anything, that the brethren appear in a dilemma. This, too, is funny, but the really hilarious moody character of the poor man is transformed into a domineering rich gentleman—so rich that thousand dollar bills—yea, even million dollar bills—exude from the pockets. Thus it was in Rang Tang and that is in his new show, which is obviously designed as a successor to the remarkably successful Shuffle Along of recent fame."
Comedians Partners For Quarter Century
Harlem will pay tribute Saturday night, when Flournoy E. Miller and Aubrey Lyle are tendered a silver bar at Jimintown Casino in honor of their stage partnership of a quarter century.
Extensive plans have been laid for entertainment of the entertainers and three specialty artists from the team's present vehicle, "Keep Shuf Imma," the team's honeymoon are Honey Brown, Billy Yarbo and Jean Starr. Three bands will play for the dancers.
Celebrities: Patrons
Broadway and Harlem will turn out to honor the comedians. Julius Bledsoe, barytone with Ziefgeld's "Showboat" and Able Mitchell, sing-and actress, now playing in "Osquette," are listed among the patrons.

parrots and monkeys screamed and dashed, themselves against

The ladies of the ensemble are Lorraine Hunter, Ruby Myers, Merrol and Juanita Brown, Theresa Williams, Mae King, Lucy Bumpardner, Peggy Robinson and Jap Salmon. Lovie Austin is director of the music and策划 of the company. The four of the company two featured songs sms burlesque but, taken as a whole, "Blue Baby" might be dubbed solid entertainment.
Two features, excellent blues singing, and a peppy dancing routine, stand out in Johnny Lee Long's "Dixiana." Johnny is still wearing the burnt cork and is assisted in creating songs by Sam Robinson, another feller seller. If you ask for the numbers applauded most by the customers, they are "Make Me A Pallet On The Floor" and "One Sweet Letter From You" sung by the husky-voiced Mabel Williams. Mabel Williams is plenty of volume and she brings to take her hearers to the back streets pictured in her songs. Mable Williams, a baby-voiced young chorister, leads her dancing partners through the chorus numbers. William (Yonder) Thompson tops the young boys, leading Rober Burns and G. Miller, who works straight and character roles. The dames include Helen Marshall, Edith Briscoe and Georgia Siletto.

RACE VOTERS REGISTER
AS DEMOCRATS
RACE VOTERS REGISTER
AS DEMOCRATS
NEW YORK—Colored voters in Va. Fla., and Texas are registering as Democrats in order to represent the local N. A. C. P, hears. Since Democrats outnumber Republicans 5 to 1, the primary election is naturally the only election in which Nathan A. Jones, president of the Pensacola Branch of the N. A. A. C. P, reports that no less than 100 groves have registered in that city to consternation of the white politicians. "Our action was taken because we felt, as taxpayers, we were not guilty of fair deal by the city authorities—n-petition nor lights, nor water, nor city work. "We are preparing to contest any refusal to permit us to vote on next election on a writ of sheriff go into court on a writ of sheriff on Saturday. Our case will go directly to the Circuit Court and should we lose there, we are to take our case to the Supreme Court and should we lose there, we shall go to the U. S. Supreme Court."
Another "knockout" for southern disenchancement, prepared by the Republican in Richmond, Virginia, to the number of some 5,000, who are preparing to vote in the primary elections and to carry their candidates in the Supreme Court's decision in the Texas White Primary Case, in the event the white politicians try to prevent their voting in Texas, in accord with the Houston Sentinel, Negroes are not only being urged to enter the Democratic primary election, but are taking active part also in the Republican campaign
Johnson Says
Commenting on the contests over primary voting in the South, James Welden Johnson secretary of the N. A. C. will take the first breach in the disfranchisement wall against Southern Negroes has been made. The N. A. C. has obtained a clear and unequivocal ruling from the United States Supreme Court that Negroes are entitled to vote and cannot be excluded. "Once the Negro takes advantage of this in large numbers, as they are beginning to do in Virginia and in North Carolina, the rigid caste dominance of a small group of white Democrats are doomed. The white politicians realize this. They will try to evade the plain issue. But Negroes are now determined to vote as United States citizens in the Far South on the same basis as they were in the past." "These Supreme Court decisions being won by he N. A. A. C.," naturally cannot be fully utilized immediately, and eventually the Negro will take full advantage of them. Inevitably white Southern prejudice will have to bow to law, or law will have to be the rule of force and starch.
WANTS PLAYGROUND
A request that the city acquire property in the neighborhood of the city, where she was in what was the "lung block" for a large play-ground, was presented Mayor Broening by a delegation headache, Mrs. Laura D. Wheatle, last week. The delegation urged that a number of properties at the corner of the city be bought and developed into a recreation centre. It was pointed out that this centre would not only serve the whole community in this section.

Heaven Help Us! Another Saxophone!
Not content with spring house cleaning, presidential campaigns, senate investigations and nine saxophones, the Fates have thrown upon us the Fates, who have received this bad news from the Conn Music Center, Elkirk, Indiana. We will increase the suffering of the public ten per cent, according to the reports of the country's best statisticians. The latest persecution is a Saxophone in "F". We don't know what the name of the saxophone is, "Saxophone in Finale". If it is true that this is the last saxophone, we humbly thankful. Providing no more saxophones are made, we guess we can stand just one more. Hospitalized. According to the latest United States census, the saxophone family, from smallest to largest, consists of the following: E flat soprano, C soprano, B flat soprano curved, B flat tenor, C flat alto, C melody, B flat tenor, E flat baritone and B flat bass.
Count 'Em and Weep
Count 'em, gentlemen. Count 'em and ween. Tec 'em, now.
What makes it worse is that the new mezzo-soprano in F is to be a lead instrument. You know what that means. Remember when you used to sing in the choir? Everywhere it was so bad when most of the choir was set to work singing alto, baritone or bass, when they broke forth in the lead it was terrible.
With the resourcefulness of the Spanish "Inquisition," the makers of this instrument have doped out a new design which is different from all the books which the same but it sounds different.
We're not interested. It can't sound any worse. Ho him.
The Husband Snatchers
By PALESTINE WELLS
The meanest thief and the biggest fool in the world is the husband snatcher—the woman who steals another woman's husband. Husband snatchers are getting to be more common than bobbed hair. It was, not always so. Or, if you'd rather, we'll say that they were not always so brazen. Not so many years ago when I was just old enough to be a child, I told my elders when they thought I was doing something else, such women were spoken of in whispers. Very visible, I caught the tail end of a conversation between my mother and a visitor. "And you know, 'said the visitor, 'they say she's intimate with Mrs. Blank.' They continued to talk while I with my nose flattened against the window pane, saw nothing that was going on in the street but pondered what I was doing. I made mate with Mrs. Blank's husband. Of one thing I was certain—it was very terrible. The woman in question was one to be avoided like scarlet feverless. That was twenty years ago.
Not Ostracised
Today I know that women who are 'intimate', with other women's husband, are often able to extract information from the people in circle of my acquaintance are at least a dozen women who either now or in the past have been guilty of cheating, or are not capable of call bad either. They are a part of what we assume to be our best society. They are our leaders if we are employed. You suggest that the men are to be doubted, about such being the case. Women aren't so innocent and ignorant nowadays as to be led into such affairs by any men I ever saw, and women carrying on an affair with a married man chooses deliberately to do so. Who fool women as to their marital status are rare and I'm not concerned with such cases. I'm talking about that despicable type of woman who is ultimately stealing another woman's man.
Every time I see or hear about such a creature, my good right hand holds it. How do I catch a cat-o-nine-tails. How I'd love to horse-shift 'em! There ought be a law punishing husband snatchers, and I would punish all the other variety of thieves.
Favorite Alibi
These women can delude themselves into all kinds of fancy imaginations to excuse their wrong doing, but they can also delude themselves, other. Our case is different. We are free from the laws, governing other mortals. Our love is a high point of our life, but we understand him—doesn't appreciate him. You've been appointed to make up to him for all her cruelty. Apple sauce! When ever a man beats you, you should stood alibl I know at once that he's lying. The truth generally is that his wife understands him too much for his comfort. He's just fishing and doesn't suspect to gain your sympathy. He wants you to show him a good time.
No Excuse
Poor sap that you are, you fail for it. There is no excuse for it. If you don't understand him, that's hard luck. If there is an honest disagreement and he finds it impossible to explain, you need business to consult a lawyer and see about a divorce. As long as he is some other woman's husband, you're not going to be a Pew women would take another woman's clothing deliberately and try to make excuses for stealing it. even though the clothing might look good, you wouldn't be impressed. Most of us wouldn't steal a dress of a coat, but a whole lot of women would walk off with another woman without a twinge of conscience.
Rob Kids
In cases of husband snatchings, one invariably thinks of the wife. We have to be careful. Even the rottenest kind of wife has my sympathy. Not that I think she is to be excused for failing to do her part, but as a wife, she has first made herself aware. Over and far above my sympathy for the wife is my sympathy for the real victims of the husband snatcher—the children. I can't think of a sister who would deliberately hurt a little child. Not one but would become indignant at the mere suggestion of a child. But without the flicker of an eyelid, they'd rob a kid of its father. Separated or divorced parents suffer in comparison to the harm that is likely to be inflicted; mighty big wife to keep from her children knowledge of their father's escapades. Besides, no matter how some one mother is there is always one the outside who will spread the news.
Meanest Thievery
We women cry that men are deceivers, that there is no good in them, but no men would deceive us. We women would aid in the deception. If women would concentrate their efforts upon developing a keen sense of loyalty toward each other, the men would be more likely to aid in the deception. Women themselves have done more to destroy the sanctity of marriage than men. We delight in wrecking each other's unions. Marriage is our bond, and we must preserve it. It would make little difference to men whether marriage ended forever as such tomorrow. For women it would mean a traget step backward. We would end the husband snatcher, are alike. The bootlegger makes drinking a risk and the husband snatcher makes marriage a risk. However, their resemblance to men are not of the same breed? All criminals have something in common.

GOOD MORNING JUDGE
Kiss And Make Up But Pay Fine First
Screams of murder coming from a house at 1213 W. Lexington street, caused two husky patrolmen to rush into the house and prepare ready for trouble. To their amazement the only sight that greeted their police eyes was a boy and a girl scared on the front steps hugging each other. The cops were not to be played with, however, and so certain were they that some sort of crime had been committed that they locked the door and spite of their seeming contentment. At the Western police station, where they gave names as Jessica W. Playing and Miss Mary Holland, 1213 W. Lexington street, the girl admitted that she had uttered the exclamation of terror: "I was like this," she explained, George and I had an argument and he threatened to quit and I told him if he did, I would scream. He said he would give me something to have made up now. Judge, and I don't want anything done to him. "I am glad that you are reconciled," he said. Easter Sunday together, but it is going to cost you one dollar and costs each for disturbing the peace."
Carney Was Needed Here For A Few Days
Extravagant ideas far beyond his means will cost Charles Carney, 1833 Fifth street, Washington, the local, and a great deal more in the jail of his native city, when he is returned after his dismission. He dined five dollars and costs when he failed to pay a taxi cab bill after being driven to the prison. He got out of his own automobile which had stalled downtown and asked me to drive him to the best hotel in town, said the cabman, "but he didn't have any money to pay me." "How were you going to pay your rent?" "That depends on whether I paid in advance or not," said Carney. "I was going to try and get trusted." "An automobile and haven't any money in your pocket?" asked the Judge. "Your honor, said Carney." "I always wanted to own an automobile and ride in taxi cabs and stay at fine hotels, so last night I borrowed a friend and just took a car over here."
"Borrowed nothing." said another man in the room. "Judge, that car he was driving has just been reported stolen by Washington police and they want him back." "Sorry that we cannot accommodate them right away," said the man. "We have here until he works out the five dollar fine I shall put on him."

The resolution would authorize the president of the Senate to appoint a commission to conduct this investigation. This committee would report its findings to the Senate with such assistance as the commission would engage in what it would deem advisable. Senator Kenneth McKellar, Democrat, of Tennessee, indicated that he would amend to broaden the scope of investigation to include other states.

BALTIMORE'S OWN FOR 36
The barbering business, like every other trade, is in process of evolution and is being developed by modern invention and present day demands into a highly scientific profession that will require special training, according to Mr. Charles S Sanders, proprietor of the shop, which bears his name at the center of Hoffman street and Drudg Hill avenue in an interview. Tuesday.
The journeyman barber, who knew merely how to cut hair and share and who carried his tools in a kit from shop to shop is fast demanding a thing of the past, he declared that demands that a man be a specialist and be to his patron's appearance that the physician is to their health.
The barber of today must be competent to the best treatments for the hair, the skin diseases and be able to advise the prescriber for his patrons the things that will be most conductive in bringing out the best in their appearance. How can we know how to the latest electric scientific appliances and know how to give his customers what they want be able to tell them what is best with a thought more to helping his patron than to increasing sales.
Bobbed Hair Was Godsend?
Boubéd Hair Was Godsend
Mr. Sanders looks up to the boubéd hair as a Godsend. While the manufacturer done much with the hair hair growing preparations to enhance the beauty of women, bobbed hair, he declares, has brought about a more satisfactory and better equalization in appearances.
Growing long hair was a tedious and oftimes impossible process. Due to the fact that short hair was a tedious task, the bob permitted barbers and dressers to concentrate their efforts, improve the quality and beautify what the patron already had instead of trying to grow longer tresses.
There is a tendency among women as the present time, he stated, to hair to grow again. In individual life, however, the attempt seldom lasts few months at best, and the sweet young things gives it up as a bad job.
Institition Barbershop
The barbershop will be more than an open room with three or four establishments, will be an institutional establishment by providing reading and lounging rooms. Special conticiencies include the care and treatment children and women and wash rooms for men. The Turkish bath, masseur and groomer will be as fixed a part of the barbershop as is today. The barbers will work in individual booths wherein they can concentrate on their work and not on other tasks. Others. This will assure speed and efficiency. The barbershop will then handle cigars, candies, lotions and oils. It will operate on a larger scale than they now.
One Spot Fifteen Years
Mr. Sanders admits that this is not practical in shops at present because the staff are not equipped service and the realization that it must be paid for. Mr. Sanders has been located at his present establishment for fifteen years and accredited in college in cities and sanitation barbering in the city. He has conducted a school for barbers in his shop for the past ten years, where youth from all over the East Coast attend. He is leading city shop owners are members of his alumnae.

WILSON'S HOMERS AID SOX TO DEFEAT STARS
Locals Open Season Win 8 To 5 Win Over Buck Ewing's All Stars
Hargrove, Philadelphia Hurler, Given Chance—Force Starts
With "Babe" Wilson clouting out two circuit blows to keep ablift the Westport course, the Black Sox sped up their 1928 season with an 8 to 5 win over Buck Living's All-Stars at Maryland Park, Sunday afternoon.
Force was on the mound for the locals and surged out the two twoside field. Living was thrown out at third trying to stretch a fluke bit, Jackson went to first for the Sox on an error. Brown bunted out to Dean. Wilson was thrown up at first.

Harrzevre pitched 11 consecutive balls before putting over a strike, but when he got his injury working struck him out of stealing in a good day at the bat, collecting a single and two home runs in five trips to the plate. Strong, in four innings, Jackson hit safely three in five times at bat, one hit being for three bases. Each of these players played an errormiss game. Matters nicked the three All-Star moundspen for a gross of 12 hits, while the Ewing men were only able to eke out three hits. The latter strike out three men. Ridgely Kemp, Johnson and Jackson, were the only men on the All-Stars to hit with a strike out. The Bothelembe Steel team, white, from Sparrows Point, at Maryland Park.

LAMBERT BELIEVES LEAGUE WILL LAST
Famed Trainer Thinks Bolden
Pulled Boner In Quitting
Organized Ball
DENOUNCES NAT STRONG
Warns Players To Consider
Future Before Bolting
PHILADELPHIA. — Slowly but
surely, the battle lines are being
straightened and guarded laid
down for the advance of the war-
ring armies in the Eastern baseball
strike, the latest to announce
himself for the league and orga-
nized Negro baseball being
"Doc" Lambert, famous trainer
and baseball seer. a man whose
influence with the rank and file
of players and owners is immeasurable.
In a letter released to the press this week, the genial Lennah says the thing which he has been predicting is the game. And he did predict it too. He bitterly arrains Nat Strong, praises President 'Kee' Tutter and chides Bolden for forsaking the organization which the latter lounded. Doc writes: "I am for organized baseball now and have always been. I am not surprised the split as it was Strong is concerning as he has negro Negro baseball any good. Years ago, when he and Walter Schleicher dominated the situation, he would more than the segregated dollars a month. When a colored club went to New York he took 10 percent out of their percentage for booking them and would never allow him to be as much as a third-rate white club.
"I regress Bolden Jimmy and think he should be stuck with the league. It is easier to correct evils from within than by getting outside and he should be referred to when he spoke of a certain club receiving guarantees and paving none. And he is the owner of the club on his own park (Bushwick) allowed his white team to play the league clubs there on Sundays. They draw from ten to twelve thousand over $1000 and the owner gets over $1000 on a Sunday there. "On the other hand hand Jim Keenan and George Rossiter, white men who own the Baltimore Black Sox and the Gold Guild, are a face high. They are for the league. Strong has played his colored club against white clubs and has paid players about eight dollars apiece, the white players as high as $100 When Jesse Hubbard resented this club and wanted to wipe out of the league. "I think Ed Bolden is one of the smartest men in the business but he pulled one when he quit the league. He went to Harvard, for getting out because he had the highest salaried club in the game and a bad schedule ruined
Praises, Nuffer, Pompez
"Strong thought that when he cured Pompez would follow suit, but the Cuban owner was too big a man to do such a shuddy trick. He is a gentleman and a square-shimmer. He played the game." The league saw fit to object. Mr. Nutter to the president and as soon as he saw that Nat Strons was running things, he put his foot down to have a real league and to run it as a fifty-fifty proposition for everyone was too much for Nat. Nutter wants to give everyone the same kind of cash will mop up with his doing so. "The teams which have limped are fighting not only the east but the west and the organizational payoffs. This thing is serious and the ball players should think well before he allows himself to be coaxed from the fold by laurel promises. The leagues will mollow in the east and the men trying to go back at anything near their real worth."
Paine Nine Takes Two
AGUSTA. Ga - The Prime basketball team continued its winning streak with the Allen University pire, 12 to 7, on Tuesday and taking the measure of the shortest. Friday, Paine's first home of the season came in the fifth inning of the Claflin game, when Robert slammed the pill over the left field fence.
Jenkins Sees Bolden
PHILADELPHIA—"Fats" Jenkins, formerly star outfielder of the now defunct Harrisburg Giants, and re-entered the Grays, was in the city Sunday and stated that he would like to play with the Hildale outfit this season. He said he would like to play Jenkins, as he already has three high priced stars in Charleston. Thomas and Briggs. Jenkins has been rated as the best lead-off man in baseball.

Storer ended up things when Payne drove out a homer with Ford on the sacks but Howard-not to be outdone came through and scored in the ninth. The Bisons widened the margin by scoring four runs in the fourth inning. They were never headed even though Storer threatened with a rally which fell short be two points.
Taylor pitched masterful ball until
he was yanked in the ninth inning
by Coach Burr. 'Sugar' Hammond

the game. Taylor and Hammond play-
ed best for Howard, while Payne and
Carrol were best for Storer.

In the second inning Lomax polled out what seemed an easy homer, but the defense called out by Umpire Desertor not having touched the keystone sack. Arnold scored two runs in the fourth inning and followed scoring one in the fifth from a walk and from a triple by Nichols, who tried to force the ball out. In the last half of the fifth, Lomax, heavy hitting catcher for the Bisons was "beamed" but refused to give up for two innings after which
Arnold Balles
Arnold rallied in the eighth inning when Feiler singled through the outfield and drove out the longest hit of the day to score a homer bringing in Feiler and Boisseau ahead of him. He then drove to the showers. Slade took up the burden and after walking Cook, who was batting for Devan, retired the slade. The Bisons took advantage of the ground rules and made two doubles and two runs. Slade retired Arnold in the ninth using but six pitched balls.

**PARIS—An amusing case involving Bob Scanlon, noted black boxer, was recently heard in the Paris civil court.** The Comédie Francaise, one of the leading Paris theatres, was about to stage a comedy which ran something like this: A white boxer who is world's champion is in love with a girl from the world's leading Negro boxer. In the play, the white champion overcomes his black rival after a great fighting battle, and while the black man is knocked out of dreams after being knocked out of the white champion takes the girl.
First Rehearsal
The role of the white boxer is played by Andy Pollack, one of the best boxers in the unhappiness for him that while he is no boxer, Bob Scanlon is, or was a renowned one, with the result that his affair ended in a manner just the opposite of the book. M. Pollack was away the gloves, refused to continue. The manager, Albert Levy, thereupon sued M. Pollack for $3,000. He sent a letter to Sel for Pollack declared that Bob had struck too hard, and Judge Du-

Raising an enormous hand to be sworn. Scanlon pointed to M. Pollack, who sat in corner. "The actor was no koxer. He could not fight with me. He fell. He ran away. He did not like it. He was true that when another actor took the place of M. Pollack you broke one of his ribs and he, too, was forced to quit?"

STUDENTS DEFEND COACH WATSON

STUD
WATSON GOT RAW D'AL
SAY H. U. STUDENTS
President Johnson Cited As
Wrench In Bison Athletic
Machinery
See Bisons Entry In C. I. A. A Delayed By Higher Ups
WASHINGTON. — Belief, that personal and imaginary grievances on the part of President Monica L. Johnson combined with powerless Board of Athletic control are chiefly responsible for the muddled athletic situation at Howard, was expressed by students, here this week.
In a special communication to the AFO-AMERICAN Lyman, the president, a blame for cush Waston's delayed contract at the feet of the university president and states that the majority of students on the team feel that Coach was received a "raw deal" Williams says.
Board Okeys Contract
Several weeks ago the Board met, received a three-year contract with a raise in salary to Coach Watson, and made known its decision to the President of the University to the Board of Trustees. Herefore, previous presidents, after knowing of the Board's decision, have placed their official station on the Board of Trustees, and could know that they could go ahead with their future plans for football for the following season. All of this months before the Trustee Board met, the President Johnson has refused to sanction the Board's decision concerning Coach Watson and has refused to give out any information as to his performance in the presentations to the Trustee Board in June concerning coach's contract. We know that President Johnson is opposed to Coach Watson and we feel safe to use his recommendation won't favorable.
No Mystery
"There is no mystery as to the cause of President Johnson's refusal to abide by the dictates of the Board, and the greatness of an executive to oversee the recommendations that made by an official board of the university, to control if its mandates and recommendations are to be treated like more child's play?" Students' Mike Jackson, Kaplan Bass, "Good old, author-editor of the 'Hilltop'," university organ, has this to say of the situation, "Coach Watson is being instructed to use his nurse units, were defeated in their purpose in trying to kill football here on the 'Hill' last fall. But the student is determined to see him get a fair deal. I am one of the three student representatives on the Board of Control, to ensure although fighting against tremendous odds, did everything to keep football alive on the 'Hill' during the upheaval last fall." Watson is getting a raw deal."
It is also felt that the matter of Howard's entrance into the C. I. A. board is being allowed authority in setting the matter. As the Board now exists it is a mere guarneered and in the opinion of the board either be given power or be bishop.
No Football Plans
Not long ago Moran College was refused the use of the Howard gym for a game with Virginia Seminary on the ground that Seminary was a home for the game, not being to that association. It is understood that the Board of Athletic Control was not consulted in this instance.
The impression is being made for Bethalem year as Coach Watson will not know about his contract, until the Board of Trustees meets in June. Meanwhile, that athletic situation is badly muddled and unless the Georgia State Big Ten and the Georgia State College Baseball Team started on the Georgia-South Carolina line, the Georgia State College Team set the垒点奥恩奥 to the turn of 3-2.

As Girls See It
By FAITH WOODSON
Baltimore athletes are neglecting its girls in the outdoor sports. This is the case, however, of the indoor events, such as basketball and volleyball, ample provision being made for them.
Many other cities have track meets and lacrosse games, javelin throw, shot put and pole vaulting as spring features for girls.
It is with a great deal of expectation that the boys look forward to the game, and it is by the P. A. L. and Urban League. With such athletes as Robinette Male, Hawkins, Nerissa Tailferro, Charlotte Parrott, Lucy Burry, and many others, known Baltimore members of the weaker sex, it is not improbable that the city might be put on the map and be played at home. When Louise Parrott swam to Brown's Grove several years ago, the city really took notice. Well, let some one promote a cinderpath! I'm sure I will. I'm sure they would find a more eye-openers. The courts are sure to be filled with girls this summer if they aren't occupied by the pro, men, but there are other sports that the Monumental City girls will enjoy if given the opportunity night, at the Community House.
The Campfires were late in start-up the season and the players played lost three won four. The line-up for most of the games included: Capt. Hawkins Lucille Craig, Girlie Hawkins, Nerissa Tallaitone, Douglass. Indoor Tennis
The indoor tennis class for beginners at the Community House, is in every Saturday afternoon under the management of Ocea Simmons.
Swimming
Under the leadership of Louise Parrott, the Monday night swimming class is rounding out some pretty fair swimmers. In addition to the swimming beginner, the are senior swimmers. M. Elise Wright and Mrs. Josephine Gibson, sisters, show both power and teamwork. Martie Spriggs and Annie Brown are also in line for honors. The diminutive Herrietta Brown, pro-
ducer of "Duck" Gibson makes fancy dive and life saving stunts her specialty.

HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Va.—Poor pitching, coupled with 16 errors, spillout Saturday, when the Virginia State tossers rumped away to an 18-1 victory.
There was not until the fifth innings that Hampton registered its only run through the base running of Holmes an out-fielder. The Petersburg team was unable to get the ball behind the splendid pitching of Allen. There was hardly a time that this pitcher was in serious trouble as McGowain in the first inning knocked out a three-sucker, which was the best offering of the afternoon.

Three Officials Have Hands
Full Handling Game
WASHINGTON. — The Lightning Five. of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity turned the tables on the team, the tune of 34 to 20, in the winning game of the interraternal championship series in the Lincoln Colonnade before a colorful host crowd here, Saturday afternoon.
On the opening play Simpson got the tap-off to Woods and laying the ball for a few seconds the Kappas completed one of the prutest cris cross plays that has been messed this season, Simpson scoring.
On the play from center "old reliable" Washington dashed down the left side of the floor and scored from the right side. White tailed and again Washington came through with a two-pointer again tying the score. Simpson and Woods scored from the right side, then "Billy" Carpenter scored from the field and from the free line.
Archie Johnson dropped a two touchdown high and quickly back play. Time-out was called by Alpha and Coach Lacey sent in Dourherty for Johnson. The play was resumed, the Alphas leaded the game and followed closely by Brundant. McClean replaced Carpenter and at the half the Alphas were ahead 14-9. The Alphas were clipped up a big lead with Carpenter and Washington scoring. Brundant rang up a two-pointer, then "Big Alphas" pulled up the pointers through the hoops. Woods followed with a goal from the left side of the floor. Carpenter and Brundant added two more from the field. The game began to get away from the officials. McClean went in for a three-pointer, then pretty left hook for a twin counter. Coach Lacey took out McClean as the fourth quarter started. Simpson scored from the game, then the game was all Alpha. The game ended. 34-20, with the highly touted "four horsemen" on the short end of the score.
Simpson worked hard to score five field goals and a foul goal, more than half the points made by the entire Kappas team in game mate. Freak* Woods failed to score in his regular spectacular way.
For Alpha Brundant, Carpenter and Washington each made four field goals in the Kappas' floor game was most outstanding.
Preliminary
In the preliminary, the Sphinx doubled for the second consecutive time, beating them, 16-10, and ending the season with no defeats against them.
For the Sphinx teams were best for the Sphinx team, while Jones and Clarkson were the Scrollers' highlights.
Monday's Game
Playing a nip and tuck struggle, Easter Monday, the Alphas and Kappas battled to a deadlock, when with only two minutes to play, and the Sphinx put on a final spurt and scored 10 points to win, 31 to 26. Carpenter and Washington starred the Kappas, while Simpson was the Kappas' best bet.

Talking It Over With BILL GIBSON
Umpires—Laws With Teeth—Last Call For Marathon—Sox First Game.
Baseball fans and players as well, should be interested in two pro-am games, one by Ernst Barnard, head of the American League, the other by John A. Heydler, president of the National Basketball Association, singularly refer to umpires.
President Barnard's aim is to speed up the game and his rules, he believes, will do much to reduce the heat, and he has outlined that have attended all seasons of the national pastime. Says the American League prey, no pitcher permitted to deliver the bat, the batsman. Just how time is to be allowed, and for pitchers violating the rule a ball shall be called on the pitcher, and in the inception to be kept on this matter. President Barnard did not disclose. Players shall not be permitted to toss the ball around the infield before the pitcher can throw it, not to be permitted to talk with a team coach at any time during the progress of the game. Only one pitcher may throw the bat, will be permitted on the field at one time, said player occupying a box between the bench and the plate. The batter must remain in the pitcher's box, if permitted to step from it without good reason. Should he do so the umpire will call a strike on him. President Barnard also offered his pitchers to make use of their SUITS are FORETED OFF.
On a somewhat different tangent President Heyder has instructed his umpires that a batted ball that passes over a foul ball or foul according to where it disappears from the umpire's view. Where ropes are stretched to hold back over a crowd, they may not catch the ball but may reach over them to make a legal catch, even though they fall after making it. Neither may players jump into a crowd, nor may reach over the railing and get the ball if they can. On agreements to cease play at a specified time for a game, the umpire must not terminate the game except on a completed inning. No new inning should be begun unless there is a period of 12 minutes left before the game started must be completed whether the players miss their train or not.
All of which, though a rather lengthy preliminary, leads up to the game. You can be a player or not they adopt any of the same rules, can at least do something toward SPEEDING UP their games, or not. You can play SUNDAY. Long drawn out games, arguments. clowning, et cetera, are not the things the fans raid their good American money to see. Make a good game, all means BEGIN THEM ON TIME.
Laws With Teeth
Toothless laws have been a bugaboo to the Eastern League since that doubled the number of disrespect for pumps, gambling, et al. that have been flouted flagrantly for the disgust of fans and those who have the interest of clean sports at heart. Laws have been made, rules proclaimed, regulations and glaring inconsistencies have been allowed to flourish as the flower of the field. For every seeming exigency a law has been made, it is not enough to it "someone rollers and presto, "thar she blows". It is our opinion that fewer laws be enforced — are needed to cover such cases as players jumping their contracts, clubs failing to meet guarantees — are needed to cover ampups and their decisions. That discipline and order can be preserved is obvious in the workings of the league, of time before the same smoothness and efficiency can be reached with us. Put some TEETH into the laws and stand by their enforcement even if the suffer. Then well have progress.

Sox First Game
Due to the late arrival of Buck Ewing's All-Stars, a number of baseball fans left the park for home, but he did not see a doubleheader, got their money's worth when the old reliable "Babe" Wilson stepped into two of his liking and lifted them over the fence, drove in runs ahead of him and took his time dog-trotting around the paths.
He Taylor made a grandstand stab when he spelled a fast drive from Burbage's bat. McClure pulled the first boner of the season in when he slammed the ball, should have hit him between first and second, but stopped to watch the ball instead of running it out. He was thrown out at first, in leftfield in the sixth and the youngster handled two chances that came his way in great style. At the bat "Mouse" struck out after fouling in leftfield in the sixth and not here for the Sunday game but are expected by next Sunday. With a stretch of good weather in which the outfield clouters should make big improvements in the national pastime this season.

DARBY DAISIES TAKE A EASTER DOUBLE BILL
When the Olympic teams from America embark for Amsterdam this year there will be a number of women athletes in the competition. There will be in all probability, as in previous years a representation of race athletes in the contingent, but they all will be males. Nothing unusual about that, if you view it from a distance, closely this seemingly insignificant fact will lead to a question, that hitherto remote, is beginning to attract some attention.
That question is why. This is why it that there are no outstanding women athletes being developed among the race. What are the reasons for this insignificance, who should be representing us in competition? We don't have to extend our search to these major competitions but may look at our schools and colleges for an answer. What becomes of our competitions of an athlete at all after she comes out of school? She may play a little tennis or dance and that's about as far as her activity goes. What is the way can she be that the enfranchisement of our women have enough yet to develop some outstanding athletes so it is possible that having lived a rather sheltered life athletics competition is looked upon as being too ROUGH? Does she view petting a dog, away back somewhere, there must be some reason to the death of women athletes among us. A host of reasons arises before us, but out of them rise only hopes of may be or might be. What is the way to the day when we will have some of which to be proud.

KOESTER'S

That's not a sentence—it's a treat. For the bread is, of course, the extra richness of Koester's—baked to build energy in hard-playing little bodies.

Passion
A Serial by LO
CHAPTER XVIII
It was two weeks before Luana was in readiness for the trip overseas. Two weeks she lived off the remnants of her salary from Le Rat Rouge. But she had felt no hunger, no denial. A great fever goaded her onward. She wanted to get away, she could feel the teeth of an awful trap closing on her, she wanted to get away before it was too late.
She was ready at last. Passports and visas at hand. Her meagre wardrobe freshly laundered and packed. Liebertini and watched her sullyen and puzzel moved about the rooms. He asked nothing, only his hollow eyes followed her about to a sick child, follows its mother.
And Luana kept her lips tightly locked against the bitter words she longed to shrill at Lieb. A great time she was having, in Paris, where he had promised her such a rattling, good time. He had spent his inheritance on wine, lights and song, and she loved him on her. But who would have thought he would be sound enough to use his inheritance instead the income from it. Then his gambling. And the way he had made her pay the bills for his wines and his dope. That was the last straw. The money she had earned. The worthless groundmel! The two weeks went by without a sound being intered in the! poor, bare rooms. Lieb was silent too, but in a half-frightened sort of a way. Luana thought that it was well he was silent. He ad opened his mouth she wooed him, killed him. She brought out the hidden franks and put a few stray francs in her purse. When Lieb left her alone, she went out, banging the door behind her on the clean, bare rooms.
There she was gone! Let him stay there and suck himself full of dope if that's what he
As for Luana, she was through. Through with Liebertini forever. It suddenly occurred to Luana that she had said these very words before.
A death-defying taxi hurdles her across Paris to the railroad station. The polite informer at the station window told her that the morning train for Calais, where she would board the steamer, had left. There would be another at night. Very well, then, she would wait. She looked around for a secluded spot in the teeming station. With difficulty she found a place in the shadow of a newspaper klosh, and settled herself to wait.
Minutes lagged into hours, and hours beating selections and thoughts. At first she simply bled over with anger. Anger at Lieb and at the off trick that Fate had played her. Then anger simmered down her checks to sell pity, and tears oozed down her checks as she thought of her plight. A sorry end, indeed, to her European pleasure tr* to come. She was a little bit him, but her, who was Lieb's wife, and for him to support Lieb's child. It was a humiliating dose to swallow, but it must be taken for the sake of her child.
Thank God that she had saved enough from the Monaco train to be able to get to Dice. No crying for everything would be all right with her, now.
Then another train of thoughts came to her. All right with her but what of Lieb? "Darn Lieb" she said aloud with a flash of her old spirit. But somehow she couldn't get him off her mind.
As fast as she tried to put him out of her spirit, he popped back again, with aggravation persistence. What about Lieb? What would become of him? He never had worked in his life. He didn't know how. And, now, that he used dope, he would be unfited to learn how to work. How could he survive in this great city?
Liana told herself that she did not care, but memories of Lieb came tumbling back into her. She had hated her, idealized her, heaped luxuries upon her, and even almost killed her, but for love. He might be a wastrel, a dope slave, a good-for-nothing, but he loved her, and only her, for he had never even shown interest in other women. Show me a woman who does not appreciate the fact that one man has sinister her out of a world of women to love! Show me a woman who has not a tender heart toward a girl, but he flatters her by a constant faithfulness.
Maybe that's what changed Luana's mind about going away or maybe it was simply that she could not desert Lieb in his hour of need. Perhaps she realized what a mockery her security with Dick would be if she were tormented by visions of Lieb, starving, in a Paris atlite alone. For that's just what would happen to Lieb. He'd starve — he'd never be able to make money enough to by morphine and food he'd eat without food. After that, when had said that she must pay and pay and pay fr her sins with Lieb. Maybe this was all a part of the payment.
Then, Luana owned to herself that she was not through with Lieb. She admitted that she would never be through with him. In the hot-headed foolishness of youth, she had surrendered herself to him and now she was his — until — what was it the minister had said when she had married — 'until — Death do ye part."

That was it — she was a part of Lieb not as degraded as he was, as worthless as he was, she was part of him and he had grown to a part of her. There was nothing for her to do but go back to him. She wished that she could go away and leave him alone, wished that she could close her conscience to him, but she could not. There was too much of Scala's sporting blood in her veins for that — too much of his willingness to accept the bad breaks as well as the lucky breaks, there was too much of Launa Lee's goodness of heart.
She took the trolley home, she would have to be enomical now, for launa franc notes would have to go a long way now.
Lieb was sitting in the dark room when she entered. Cried out at sight of her, "Luna, you come back. I thought you had left me."
She suffered his touch on her arms, his lion on her hair, she let him lay his head in his lap when she sat down.
"Lieb, listen to me. I'll do the best I can by you. I'll work and try to pay rent for the rooms and buy food. But I want buy you the doom. You to work for that yourself. Do you heme?"
But Lieb did not answer — just, just a trembling grip on her, crying over and over. "That God, you are here. I thought you had gone for good."
Luna was amazed. She had not real thought that she meant that much to any man he meant. Why, suppose she had taken the train to Cali, and left it in these rooms? She shuddered to think of his end, needed her as much as a baby needs its mother. "It's going to be hard, Lieb," she wrenched him gently. "Harder than you think, because" her voice hardly cut through the darkness, "be cause. I'm, well, we're going to have a child."
That it was — she was a part of Lieb now, as degraded as he was, as worthless as he was — she was part of him and he had grown to be a part of her. There was nothing for her to do but go back to him. She wished that she could away and leave him alone, wished that she could before hast to die, but she could not. There was too much of Scala's sponging blood in her veins for that — too much of his willingness to accept the bad breaks as well as the lucky breaks, there was too much of Martha Lee's goodness of heart.
Almost as though she was being guided by forces beyond her control, Luana picked up her bag and then she came. She took the troll home, she would have to be enomical now, for the fran notes would have to go a long way now.
Lieb was sitting in the dark room when she entered.
He cried out at sight of her, "Luana, you've come back. I thought you had left me." She smirked his touch on her arms, his lips on her hair, then him lay his head in her lap when she sat down.
"Lieb, listen to me. I'll do the best I can by you. I'll work and try to pay rent for these rooms and buy food. But I won't buy you dope. You'll to work for that yourself. Do you hear me?" But Lieb did not answer — just kept a trembling grip on her, crying over and over. "Thank God, you are here. I thought you had gone — for good."
Luana was amazed. She had not really thought that she meant that much to any human being. Why, suppose she had taken that train for Calais and left him in these empty rooms? She shuddered to think of his end. He needed her as much as a baby needs its mother. He came to be hard. Lieb she warned him gently. Lieb she thanked him voice hardly cut through the darkness, because. I'm. well, we're going to have a child."
This brought him up sharp.
His brother, then up sharp.
"Poor little kid," he exclaimed.
"Poor little kid is right", said Luana. "Cursed,
before its birth."
"Poor little kid is right", said Luana. "Curse
before its birth."
"I was thinking of you," said Liebertini softly.
They sat silent in the darkness.
The long hot summer months stared at Luana.
Half-ill, handicapped, somehow she mus
wrest a living from this great city. Memorie
of the last summer returned to her — strolls un
under the trees of the boulevards, cooling drink
at cafes, frocks to intrigue, silks to caress he
body. And this summer — What?
To Be Continued
"I was thinking of you," said Liebertini softly. They sat silent in the darkness. The long hot summer months 'tared at Luana.

And this summer — What?"
Pacific Higher Than Atlantic
It is believed that the mean sea level of the Pacific ocean is slightly higher than the mean sea level of the Atlantic. According to the U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey the Pacific ave rages about two feet higher than the Atlantic at the same latitude. It has long been known that there was a difference of nearly one inch in sea level at the opposite ends of the Panama canal, but it was supposed to be due to ocean currents which tend to pile up the waters in the Gulf of Panama while they lower it in the Mosquito Gulf.
It is believed that the mean sea level of the Pacific ocean is slightly higher than the mean sea level of the Atlantic. According to the U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey the Pacific average sea level is feet below the mean sea level at the same latitude. It has long been known that there was a difference of nearly seven feet in sea level at the opposite ends of the Panama canal, but was supposed to be due to ocean whirlpools to top low waters in the Gulf of Panama while they lower it in the Mosquito Gulf.
"Say Jack Robinson"
Nearly everybody has used the old expression, "Before you can say Jack Robinson," It means instantly, at once, in a twinkling. There is much uncertainty respecting the price of the expression. Many have discuss the question without throwing much, if any additional light on it. The earliest known use of the expression in its modern form appears in "Evelina," a famous novel written by Fanny Burney. That work was first published in 1909 would seem, how-about-it, to be the most important You can say Jack Robinson" was proverbial already at that time. In 1885 Francis Grose, the British antiquarian, published his "Classical Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue. Under "Jack Robinson, Grose says: "Before you could say Jack Robinson, on a saying to express a very short time, eliminating from a very volatile gentleman of that appellation who would call on his neighbors, and woud be gone before his name could be announced."

'Kodak' Means Nothing
The word "Kodak" is not synonymous with camera. "If it isn't an Eastman, it isn't a kodak" is a famous advertising slogan. All be cause George Eastman invented both product and word.
The latter was born in 1888. Mr. Eastman wanted a term that would be euphonious yet not so loud, but the combo of letters which has been used continuously for nearly two score years.
"Does it mean anything?" he has often been asked by persons curious to know if he coined out of ancient words having to do with sight.
"No," he explains. "We wanted a word that could not be misspelled or mispronounced, that could meet the ideal trademark requirements."

"Does it mean anything?" he has often been asked by persons curious to know if he coined it out of ancient words having to do with sight or vision.
"No," he explains: "We wanted a word that could not be misspelled or mispronounced, that would meet the ideal trademark requirements."

DIPLOMACY
By MRS. NESTOC NOEL
I have always noticed that a request has a better effect on a child than a command. In some cases a little diplomacy will prove even better than a direct request.
Let us suppose it is just time for your little girl to have her drink of milk. For some reason or other, you are pretty sure she will make a face when you say: "It is time for your milk now." She will probably pout and cry and give you a bad quarter of an hour. Be a little diplomatic with your small daughter. Look at the back of your mouth: "Pussy Mother and Baby will never grow strong if we forget their milk. Shell we give Pussy hers first today?" This makes a little distraction. Puss laps up her milk hurriedly as if to say how good it is, you drink yours and small daughter immediately follows suit.
You can then might try adding some little dainty to the milk and say: "I wonder what will be our saucers today." Then the odd-shaped cracker is eaten with the milk, and all is well.
Bedtime is another trial to some mothers. The more tired a child is the less she wants to go to bed. "Your big dolly has gone to sleep your bed!" we might say, having first put the milk here. Now we say: "But it?" Dolly is then put in her bed and, as a natural sequence, the child goes to her bed.
If we were to consider the matter from an unprefixed point of view, we should see that we often ask our children to do things we should not like doing ourselves. Should we have children who make moving point in the story and to to bed? Is it easy for a child to stop in the middle of a game? You can avoid this by saying at the beginning: "You may play if you can finish in half an hour." Children generally know how long a game will take. When a game is very near its finish, I would not push all the things they are playing with ruthlessly to one side in order to be punctual to the minute. They not give the children the time only five or minutes are left, and even allow a few more minutes if the game requires it? After all, what we want is happy, healthy children, and reasonableness on the part of the parent will do much to insure this joy. It is impossible to make a rule that we apply to children who make moving point in the story and parental love and watchfulness should teach us the right method with each of our own.

In Darker Baltimore
In Darker Baltimore
BY RALPH MATTHEWS
Two Baltimoreans From Dover Street Go To Heaven
No sooner had the little train which the spiritual says runs to heaven than a man had pulled through the golden gates than Mrs Joshua Green, a good Baptist from Dover street, kicked her husband on the shins and said, excitedly, "Wake up, Josh, we're in heaven!"
Josh rubbed his eyes and stuffed his pipe, which had fallen from his pipe, in his pocket, gathered up a hymnbook which he had brought along for a good impression in his pocket and stepped out on the platform.
Josh, being just an ordinary everyday fellow who had worked in the steel mills at Sparrows Point for so long that the rupired fires of Hades enthralled him not, was not half as enchanted over their arrival as his wife was.
"There don't seem to be many getting off," he said to the conductor, sending a hunk of golden chewed tobacco into one of the golden cuspidors. "Nope." came the answer, "we never bring many on a trip from Baltimore, the other road has a monopoly on the business down there."
The Greens were hustled into the golden barred stockade by a uniformed angel and herded together with other nationalities to be searched and questioned by the immigration officials.
The Green seized her husband's arm nervously as she was placed uncomfortable close to an almond-eyed Chinaman. She never did like Chinese.
"Do they have laundries up here?" she asked under her breath.
John examined his linen before he answered. "Many, you know there is a damming wound with the shirt. I put it on clean just before we got struck by that automobile."
"Be careful of your language, Josh Green, snapped his wife, "they aren't going to put up with your hell raising up here like I did down on earth. The angels were unusually slow that day in passing people through, but finally their turn came. "Well," said a fat angel in a high silk hat, "let me see your credentials." Josh was sore from having been mutilated so long and didn't want any argument. "My name is Josh Green," he said sorely, "look on that book there and let me get in." "I see Mandy Green," said the inspector, after running his finger thru his nose, "your name seems to be missing." He maved Mrs. Green through the gates. "We might be able to let you thru," said the angel, "you see ever since the fliver, moving pictures and jazz have been invented we have been able to help. What would you like to do?"
"Do?" bellowed Josh. "I don't want to a dad damble thing. I came up here for a rest. Where are those flowery beds of ease I hear so much talk about?** the high silk hat nudged a little short, hammered-down angel and they laughed so hard that they shook the feathers from their wings.
"Did you fall for that, too?" they laughed, wiping the tears from their eyes. "I was a little shirt, shirts. Why who do you think does the churning in the milky way, tends to the waterworks and rolls the thunder barrels up and down? Who minds the lightning switch and relieves the man in the moon? Then all those stars have got be lugged in and out of the house, got to be cracked for hall. Which would you rather do?"
"What's in them thunder barrels?" he asked smacking his lips and wip-

ing his mouth expectingly with the back of his hand,
"Sand for desert storms," came the answer.
"Can't you let me pump them wind blasts over there?" asked Josh. "I used to be pretty good at pumping the pipe back home." "I suppose it can be arranged," said the fat angel. "I hear some talk that they are goin' to retire Moses on a pension. He's been holding down the job or some time, and he was the only limit." Josh was pretty well satisfied on the wind blasts because it gave him an opportunity to get even with a lot of people he didn't like back on earth, by blowing their hats off and making them chase them for blocks. Steamships having replaced sail ships, the wasters had to assemble to be built to the mouth of March required a little elbow juice to come in and go out like a lion. Mandy being a bona fide citizen, was constantly at chair practice and it made him sore as a boil when she wanted him to learn to pick a harp when he preferred a mouth organ.
"Mandy," he said one evening as he tossed a grass bag over his shoulder. "I'm going out and get myself a chicken. Till be hanged if I can work all day on nothing but milk and honey."
First intention was to crawl over the golden fence of some well-to-do heavenite, and appropriate the desired fowl, but he recalled that an amendment to the ten commandments had made chicken eating unlawful and none would be seen around loose.
After questioning a traffic cop he made his way down the thoroughfare, nose-dropping-fitting sandals making a peculiar "plankety plank" sound as he progressed.
He paused in front of what seemed to be an innocent haberdasher, but what was in reality a blind jersey, which was operated by a bewhiskered Hebrew in a derby hat. The walls were lined with white covers of all descriptions, including fancy cut styles with a belt in the back and others with bell bottomed sleeves. The covers of disinfectant to rid the wings of vermin and gold polish for harps.
The proprietor rubbed his hands together knowingly when Josh gave him the wink and led him down into a golden cellar, after ascertaining that he was not an undercover agent.
Nadine of crates of Jason still was ins were in
The cellar was full of crates of chickens and an incubator still was sizzling as more chickens were in process of being hatched. The owner showed him the label, "this chicken was hatched before the battle of Jericho. Positively, a pre-war chicken. It was the foist chicken to cross the street to get on the other side."
After wrangling over the price for some time, Josh went home and ate a nice quiet eternity. It resembled basking in a deidra beech weather on the year round. There were no signs up in the public temples marked "White" and

YOU can lighten your complexion many tones, instantly with this delightful, long-clinging face powder. And it will look right, too, because Nadine is so wonderfully fine and smooth that it lies closely and softly against the skin. The moment you dust on this perfect face powder, you will notice how different it is from the ordinary kind. All shine and disagreeable oiliness will vanish away, giving your skin a lovely, dainty softness—and the light tone that men simply cannot resist.
And the perfume! A marvelous fragrance, deep and rich and lasting—it will remind you of a garden of exquisite oriental flowers. You'll love it—men go wild over it. Most girls are so captivated with the delicious odor of Nadine that they use it not only for face powder, but on their hands, arms, shoulders and throats, sur-
"Colored." And everybody got along like a big family. The favorite pastime was dressing up in clean robes at twilight and going down near the gates to see the new arrivals or hanging around the express office, ascertaining the who new arrivals were or where there were no church splits in heaven, due to the fact that there were very few church members there; and hardly any preachers at all. Nobody wanted to be the head of the various lodges because it was against the law to pay dues and wear regalia and secrets are taboos in heaven. You could not go on a day's travel and there were no angels in horn-rimmed glasses collecting data and funds for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Old people were well taken care of and were not forced to live with their children. Politicians lived up to the promise and helped to collect money in the School Board and he was permitted to wear spats over his sandals, as a special honor.
On a whole, heaven was a nice place to be. If you behaved yourself. No one had been kicked out, in the memory of the oldest inhabitants, since a young Bolshevik named Satan got his when he tried to for office on an independent ticket.
After talking the matter over at length with Mandy, Josh decided to stay.

Clements Bedalie, Leader,

NATIVES TRUST HIM
White Pass Harsh Measures
To Destroy Unions
So powerful has the I. C. U. organization of native industrial and commercial workers in Africa become, under the leadership of Clements Kadala, native founder, that harsh measures, on the part of European farmers, Government, are being employed in an effort to destroy its usefulness.
Kadala, born in East Central Africa, started the association after the end of the Great War and won over a number of competing rival leaderships, all of which existing organizations centration until he had eliminated Four chief factors playing a part in bringing about this movement for the creation of a welfare system, increased cost of living and lower wages following the war; the echoes of the Garvey movement; the return from Europe of the Native War; the effort to build up a new spirit of inter-racial until among all black Africans, and the growth of the native political body; the success of the government had become almost supreme in the Northern Provinces.
As a result of the union both employers of labor and the Government involved in bringing the government into wages. Because of Kadala's great ability as a platform speaker and because of his persistence in denouncing employers, he has created a general white hostility, and concomitantly uttered certain erroneously attributed to the I. C. U. movement. The Government accordingly passed in 1908 the Color Bar Act to repress skiliness in the labor force in 1927 passed the Administration Act which is aimed at suppressing the union by placing restrictions on the liberty of the industry. Northern farmers have been using unwarranted methods in victimizing members of the union in their employ. The protest need of the country presents to be a Government that will grant recognition to the I. C. U. so as to have it legally controlled as similar bodies in the Union and the Government have been done by a number of European and Barru conferences under the auspices of the Dutch Reformed Churches and the Students' Christian Association.

Leaders Express Growing
Economi Security
RALEIGH. N. C. — Not only the immediate problem of unemployment, but the future of industrial training, the need for prehension throughout the South, according to Thomas L. Dabney, now making a survey for the National Urban League. Says Mr. Dabney: "The problems were so absorbed in Negro migration that they gave little attention to the changing economic situation of the Nero workers in the South." Today industrial conditions have changed to such an extent as to compel attention. Having just left the South, I am in certain portions of the South. I find that the problem of securing work is the most important immediate problem before the American Negro.
I find also that there is a growing apprehension among thoughtful leaders about the economic security and labor status of the race. The significant thing about this feeling is that the national leaders and social workers in many widely separated localities. The Negro faces a critical situation throughout America — a situation that calls for the most capable, the most honest leadership the world has ever known.
This much at least all the education leaders with whom I have come in contact are in absolute agreement. The teachers are Howard, Union, Petersburg, A. & T. at Greensboro, the Winston-Salem School Teachers and Shaw, Industrial Education Procter & Gamble, the director of industrial training at Va. Union thinks that industrial training no longer appeals to the youth of the race because the opportunity to use it is now limited. Part of the trades once monopolized by non-rower workers are now under the monopoly of white laborers. More and more construction, bricklaying, etc., being given by employers to white laborers. Dr. Gordon B. Hancock, professor of sociology at Union thinks that the Negro needs a new philosophy and a higher sense of duty, on the basis of the value of money, on the other. Group To Blame President F. D. Bluford thinks the Negro is to be blamed for his loss of education. He did not rename himself for the prescient critical situation. Negro pa-

rents, says Dr. Bluford, do not send their sons and daughters to college for training in manual or industrial work. He says that his son should be a doctor or professor and his son spurs manual labor. This attitude on the part of the Negro parens, Dr. Bluford states, has contributed to the industrial world and business that we might have had. Incompetent Leaders President S. G. Atkins, of the Winston-Salem institution that our incompetent leadership is chiefly to be blamed for our mistakes along industrial and economic lines. President Atkins was particularly commenting on the ministers, president Atkins said: "ministers are not teaching Negroes; they are merely preaching and coaxing the whites to comment on the people whose churches are static," continued Dr. Atkins. College and university graduates cannot adjust themselves to conditions in our churches, because they make no allowance for their training.
Meantime fewer college men are preparing for the ministry, industrialization and the economic crisis, practically nothing about organized labor. The trivial and fantastic work of the clergy, while the more serious and fundamental problems are scarcely concease there is little hope for the race to economic and industrial conditions.
Walker Company Now Uses The Air Express
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — The Madame C. J. Walker Company has begun the use of the air express as a means of delivering goods to Indianapolis. With the inauguration of this new service and by use of thru trunk line telegraphic service, an agent in Boston who finds the delivery day may have her stock replenished tomorrow; the merchant in San Francisco anticipating a big demand for forty-eight hours, hence, can be ready with ample stock to supply the demand when it occurs. With factory-packed merchandise is available. Indianapolis is but forty-eight hours from the most distant point in the United States and the Walker Company just from its fartherest U. S. customer.

The complete charge of the mixing department, he pointed to an upper from where Clark was busily engaged. He read the big business, which will come with the hot weather. The manager declared that since 1910, the company large consumers of Try-Me beverages felt that it was their duty to employ members of the race, in order to appreciate the patronage given.
"Your paper brought them in and we gave them the best that money can buy," was the declaration of Mr. Butler. H. Butler stores, 309 N Eustat street after a three weeks' advertising campaign in the Afro, for Easter business among colored people. That two weeks prior to Easter colored patrons began to pour into the store, and gave as his reason for such remarkable business, the courteous treat that his patrons know that Butler stores everywhere handle the best in men and women's wearing apparel. I have always been a staunch advocate of the colorful papers because I know that the very best people read them; believe me, colored people want the best, and are willing to pay for it. No one need to be fooled when it comes to selecting good merchandise," declared Mr. Bernstein. "Our buyers select the best, for our trade. Doing this, we have built up a strong presence in a city where we operate stores. We welcome colored trade and when they come into one of Butler's stores, they don't have to worry about getting service, and the very best merchandise."

Both men claimed to be gods in their own right and commanded a fluent use of English and other languages. He wore an old olive drab army over coat, a suit of blue overalls and a flowing sax. Around his head was wound a cloth resembling a turban. He was a mysterious and varied charma.
"I am a professional man," he told the Magistrate, "a physician and a healer. A Buddhist teacher, too. He is a teacher of the meaning of their Nirvana. To me the signs of the heavens are plain. Incarnation, ritual and spiritualistic phenomena are familiar; to the initiate all things are plain. To the initiate and plebian all things are common, to the god all things are godlike."

His eyes, piglike, flashed brightly as he lifted his hands to collect the huges nugged each other in terror. "I believe in the reincarnation of Socrates. The power of Budda has changed the elements, light fires without matches and boil water without fire. I am a graduate of four medical colleges that have traveled through this country."
Children Hysterical
According to residents of the section of Ten Pin alley and Dallas Heights, the neighborhood has alarmed the neighborhood for several days. He appears and vanishes at intervals. Graceful, he is brightened into hysteria by his piercing eyes as he appears suddenly from alleyes. He is seen wearing a black beard growing almost to his eyes.
Whenever chase was given, he vanished as suddenly as he had appeared. Sunday night, neighbors seeing smoke coming from a vacant house, notified the police, and upon entering they found Geaumbra on his knees before a large bowl of water. The police, in a trapped large hole was burned and which was widening in circumference as the flames devoured the floor. According to police, the priest scurried and a trapped animal aid a fight was expected. He became suddenly passive, however, and mumbling an inaudible prayer, accompanied them quietly. Against the man's claim to divinity, refused to try him, but authorized that he be examined by physicians.

After three years' wandering over the country he settled down in Michigan, where he caught receiving stolen goods and again the mercy of the court was extended to him and he was paroled.

Wind Plays On Easter Paraders
BY RALPH MATTHEWS
Baltimore's Easter parade, if it can be called that, took place in Spattering.
Spatterings, by way of exploitation, is not some far off distance city without a Drill Hill hospital or Pennsylvania avenue, but a state or condition meaning just blotches here and there, scattered possessing neither solidarity longevity or sanctity.
So far as Druld Hill Avenue and its khred throughfares were concerned, Baltimore Easter parade was not real, it massaging and void of all the glamour and glory of previous years. It was disappointing.
Perhaps the intermittent showers of the previous day had something to do with it. Perhaps the Easter morning blaze blazed as brilliantly as the Easter sun should, had a great deal more to do with it. Perhaps that Chilling wind that blew tears in your eyes and ears was so refreshing for dear life and made you wish you had discarded your winter flannels so soon had a lot more to do with it. Whatever it was, Baltimore Easter frocks. Easter hats, Easter shoes and all stayed comfortably within doors and ate has boiled eggs. More than a dozen. A few ventureures souls-mustered courage enough to leave the breakfast dishes and he themselves to eat. Sol, not shouting as he is reputed to do on Easter, but beaming gently enough to make theake's heart happy, noon would find him in a more pleasant mood and wax warm enough for her to shed the winter coat as a moth on her finger, flimmer spring things.
Before the last collection had been lifted and the doxology permitted her to issue fourth again into the great outdoors, the sun and the wind which had ben nip and tuck all morning had reached a deciding point in their ten round hops. The wind was still moving, so condition the sun was down for the last count.
Hat Chasing
Having won this encounter by a technical knockout, Mr. wind started out to make mischief, but he had wished with the lady who wore the wide brimmed red hat at Mosher street and Drudu made the dignified fat gentleman chase his brand new fedora while he was talking to two equally dignified ladies in front of Bethel Church. On whole, he cut up very unbecomsi-
Identifying Styles
Speaking of the styles that did get an airing, no pun intended. it is hard for me to say off hand which mode prefers me. As we walked, the young lady who walked with me, rattled off the combinations with such precision and familiarity that I unconsciously had to wear them. She had either wrapped packages in a department store or was merely taking advantage of my masculine ignorance of the world and what nots that women wear. I never recognize crepe, when it is hanging on a door.
Alligator Shoes
The ensuing story said, took the cake for frequent and diversified appearances. The small hat is undoubtedly here to say so long as the color of the shirt seems effective. spirt coats seem quite fine. The alligator has deserted the hand bag and now decorates milady's shoes, which makes life decidedly more interesting for even a dead all-
Estimating The Cost
Fashion Price? Well, that's a question. What sort of estimatim an mere man can make when pressing a nose man can make what window, he sees a gown for $65 and pressing his nose against most any Pennsylvania avenue clothing shop in style, and same town reproduced in style and quantity if not in quality marked $12 or less. To really estimate the cost of Baldwin's nose outweighs to be a law compelling, the dames to keep the tags on until they pass the reviewers stand.
Hamilton Murray
The most valuable throne of all was the fact that neither Prof. Hamilton Murray or Prof. Marcellus Walker treated the bystanders to a slimness of their unusual forms. alone show what a mediocre thing Baltimore's Easter parade must have been.

MYSTERY STILL SHROUDS GIRL'S BRIDGE DEATH
Young Woman Hurled
From Trestle Lies Uni-
identified In Morgue
PLACE KNOWN AS
LOVER'S RENDEZVOUS
Many Couples Use Dark
Lonely Street As Trysting
Place
An unknown little brown girl, her once pretty face marred beyond identification and whose body has been viewed by nearly a hundred people as it lies on a cold slab in the city morgue, will probably be buried in potter's field this week.
Identity of the girl, smartly dressed, with one leg still clamped in the knee in a death cramp receipt that the member was broken, as she hurried to a tragic and untimely death over the Argyle avenue bridge, in the stacks of the Pennsylvania station, is still an unsolved mystery.
Culprit Leaves No Clue
Lovers Lane
The bridge over the tunnel between Lafayette Market and Pitcher street, is said to have been loven by the tragedy night after night, the darkest and less frequently throughfaiths in that section after market hours. Reporters stationed on the scene of the tragedy night after night have seen numerous couples huddled in the shadows of the high stone bridge, spooning, perhaps, brought out by the nights of spring. It is thought that the morgue keeper to view the unfortunate, they creep neat the draped form hoping against hope that it is not the one they seek. The morgue, hearkenly requesting a lost sister; mothers, heartbrokenly requesting one gimpse and then bursting into tears, torn by two emotions because it is not their misfortune; the material instinct tugs at their heartstrings for the mother whose daughter is.
