Bloodhounds Only Witness Against Accused Murderer
Sensational Case Set For Trial In Criminal Court May 25th
DEACON BOARD IS DIVIDED OVER PASTOR
Former Stenog Will Testify That Pastor Is Father Of Child
RALEIGH, N. C. — The Rev. O. S. Bullock, pastor of First Baptist Church, must face accusation that he is the father of the illegitimate child of Miss Ella M. Evans, his former stenographer, in Criminal Ct., Friday.
The sensational case which has divided officers and members of one of the largest churches in the state, has been placed on the calendar of the Wake County Superior Court for that day.
Board Divided
At the last meeting of the deacon board, a proposal to silence the pastor until the case ends was defeated when the Rev. Mr. Bullock took the chair and ruled the action out of order according to a member of At a church meeting on the following night a resolution making it impossible to bring the matter up again in a church meeting was carried by a majority vote of those
Costs Thousands
At a recent meeting, the pastor declared that even if convicted the case would not cost him more than the sum of dollars have been paid lawyers in the case. The Rev. Mr. Bullard drives for Shaw. University.
Thought Case Ended
When the case was first brought up before a magistrate in Wake County, the pastor was dismissed and many believed that the case would result in the pastor hearing, however, before the magistrate was denounced as a travesty and a force. The pastor, attorney, representing the girl made the request that some other justice hear the case. Miss Davis and her attorneys declare that the case will be prosecuted to the court when it comes up for a hearing. There have been many unusual developments in the case. Miss Evans who gave the child the name of John Davis, Jr., which name was John Davis, later accused of the Rev. Bullock of being its father. N. W. Rourk, wealthy Raleigh citizen, was said to be backing Miss Davis with a threat of being killed by a Dr. Bullock. Because of the controversy raging the congregation over the case, and because of the strong backing he has received from fraternal and church organization, the case is look forward to with unusual inter

Bloodhounds On Against Acc
SANFORD, N. G.—With only the evidence of bloodhounds against him, Mr. McLeod, on trial here, charged with the murder and criminal assault of the vampire, is making a vallant stand against the attempt to convict him, after his attempt to objection to such his attempt the evidence was overruled by Judge R. A. Nunn. In the case of one, the most come up in the history of this region, the courthouse has been packed by the tremendous crowds that have turned out to hear the proceedings.
Hounds Did Not Bay
On the March of 27, Mrs. Rebecca Matthews, 77, was criminally murdered near her home. Bloodhounds took up W. C. York, of Asheboro, took and followed it to the hut in which Clod made his home. York, himself, stand, admitted that the hounds did not harm the defender when he appeared in the yard.

IS TO CLEAR TITLE
Mrs. Malonie, Regal Theatre,

CHICAGO, (Special)—Eleven years ago whites on Grand boulevard contracted not to sell 60 pieces of property between 51st and 60th street to colored folk.
May 21, they will go into court seeking to nullify this agreement so as to sell their property to Negroes. Most of it now is in the hands of colored emancipants, but whites who would sell find the agreement has still nine years to run and they cannot give a clear title, until the court acts.
South Parkway
South Parkway or Grand Boulevard, as it is sometimes called, is the Drum Hill Avenue of Chicago. It is the seat of one of the main arteries entering the city. All day long autos at 25 to 50 miles an hour pass along this street enroute from Gary and the South to the Lopez.
Indiana avenue used to be the boundary of the colored section which expanded since the war, the whites migrating to the North Shore section leaving hundreds of palatial

Suggests Segregation Law
The Negro-hating Chicago Tribune succeeded voluntary segregation recently in the newspaper editorial: The segregation problem of the relationship between white and black cannot be ignored. The basis of certain fundamental facts is accepted by both races. For the Negro this basis must include the recognition of whiteness in the form of intrusion. It must include the recognition of the white man's fear of misceenment. And it must include the recognition of the black race are, seemingly by nature, not amenable to the legal and habitual restrictions of society.
The Negro is here — here in northern cities like Chicago — is here to stay and to increase in number; that is, to continue serving a social purpose; that he has a right to live, work and be haunt; and that a resentment self by confining him into narrow, undesirable areas makes him a less desirable citizen.

Upon Solicitor Williams' protest that the evidence was only a link in a chain of circumstantial evidence, Judge Dumon overruled the objection, following a lengthy argument by defense and state's counsel. Evidence given by County Coroner, Dr. Charles Scott, following that of Dr. Leon Watson, who testified that the defendant was a choked and shocked child, not from any abnormal condition, was considered damaging by the state, in that it corroborated that of her family. A special jury was empaired from a venue of 100 men, and after the hearing of additional state's testimony, the defense will decide N.C.'s fate.

The appeal was made at the nion prayer hour by Mrs. W. W. Decker Johnson, wife of the bishop of Texas, who recalled that the late Bishop W. W. Decker of Mississippi and Dr. W. Chappell of South Carolina died during the last Quadrennium without harmonizing their difference, "If they did not agree on earth, they can expect to agree how wonder they expect to in heaven." she said.
When she had concluded, Mrs. Joan R. Crasey of Baltimore, and daughter of the late Bishop Beckett, took the floor.

Mrs. Bethune addressed the conference Thursday on the work of the Federated Cubs of Colored Women.
"There is no spirit of pessimism among us," she told the conference. "Our faith so sleaves in that we are so devoted to the lives of those loved that he gave his son, Jesus Christ, that all, not one, but all white, black, brown, yellow, all mankind, all people, all lives and have it more abundantly. "We are marching forward. Our eyes are turning toward higher things of God and the brotherhood of man." A resolution endorsing the work of the Federated Clubs and paying tribute to the leader of Negro women was unanimously adopted by the conference.

"There is no doubt of the exemplary life Bishop Becket lived," Mrs. Coasey said, "and I resent the apologies he made for the views he chose to attach a stigma to his name." Bishop Joshua Jones rapped for order as the delegates audibly sided with her. Remarks of a similar nature were made by Mrs. B. F. Saller, of Michigan, wife of the late Bishop Salter. Mrs. Johnson referred to divergent views on the issue of Bishop J. S. Flipper also between Bishop A. L. Galnes and Bishop A. J. Carey. She asked the conference to pray for harmony among the bishops.

M. E. Z. BISHOP
ST. LOUIS — The election Thursday of Dr. W. W. Matthias of Washington, D. C., to the bishopric of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, which is in session here at the New Coliseum, was another feature of the 21st quadrennial General Conference of the denomination.
In a spirited balloting, Rev. Matthews led in the race when the first count was made. On the second ballot he received 307 votes, which were two more than was necessary to elect. Matthews's splendid record as Secretary of Foreign Missions was to a great extent to his election.

Dr. R. E. M. Moton, Principal of Tuskegee University, spoke of the evoking. In explaining a solution for greater racial achievements, he congratulated the progress the A. M. E. Zion Church had along religious and educational lines.
Episcopal Address
Easy divorces and companionate marriages were scored as the "greatest" or "the nearest approach to prostitution to the marriage altar" by the episcopal address1.
Modernism and fundamentalism were the backdrop to this address, evidence of belief that the greatest work could be accomplished through "unity of religion" "unity of the church", and "unity of the church", by in pointing out the problems faced by the church, due to the migration of Negroes from the south, to the north from the bishop's described the reason for the migration, oppression, oppression, and repression of our people by the dominant group in the south, and the deprivation of people by the same. Other recommendations were submitted condemning lynching and segregation and urging the people to make a tough deal with the civil unrest elections. Other recommendations pertaining to legislation were referred to committees. There were more than 400 sessions are registered from many parts of the world. While it is not probable that any bishop will be elected, that any bishop will be scheduled in the roster of general officers.

ROSENWALD ADDS
$2,000,000 TO FUND
CHICAGO—An additional gift of $2,000,000 to the Rosenwald Fund, bringing the total to more than $200,000,000 was announced here this month by Julius Rosenwald, the troopist, who has added 4,000 race schools. In making the gift, Mr. Rosenwald asked sympathy with the policy of perpetuating endowments, I believe that more good can be accomplished by expending funds as trustees find options to support the work by storing up large sums of money for long periods of time."
A condition attached to the Rosenwald amount given, Negroes themselves, must raise an equal amount. To date 4,148 schools have been built in 14 southern states and the fund has $2,127,000 toward financing them.

I believe Clarence Darrow sincere at heart but fundamentally wrong in his advice telling the Negro to forsake the Church, Dr. Mordecai Johnson told a large meeting for the handicapped at the Royal Theatre Sunday afternoon.
Admitting that there was urgent need for new intelligence and education in the pulpit and declaring that he intended to spend a large part of his energy in producing college educated men and women, Dr. Johnson added that he would never, not forget to stop and do reverence to those earnest men who headed the church in the past and became the struggle through the heat of the day.
Advising the Negro to forsake the church because it had some defects, he said, was like advising youth to become the struggle who gave their life and opportunity

CREOLE BLOOD FIRES VEINS OF PARIS ARTIST
Mme. Germaine Casse Mixture Of Black, White and Indian Ancestry
EXHIBITION EXCITES FAVORABLE CRITICISM
Many Of Her Drawings Deal With West Indian Subjects
By J. A. ROGERS
PARIS—In this city of art one of the best-known expositors of tropical art is Mme. Germaine Casse, who is now giving an exhibition of her work on the Rue de Faubourg Montmarte.
Mme. Casse, though a Parisienne by birth, is a daughter of the tropics both by ancestors and nation. Although trained in the art schools of France, where she took high honors, almost all her canvases, and many of her paintings, with West Indian subjects. She is also a frequent exhibitor at the many art expositions here, and several of her drawings have been hung in the Louvre and the Spring Salon. Among the most noted of these are "Vague Antillisea", Nature Mort au Ferroquet", "Des Crêpes", "Les Oeillets", and "Le Crabe".
Daughter Of Tropics
As to the ability of Mme. Casse, Henry Berenger, former French Ambassador to the United States, and did an estimate of her work that we shall give it here in full. He says in the frontispiece of the catalogue: "Mme Casse, Germaine Casse is a real daughter of the tropics. Her father, the Deputy Germaine Casse, was born in the depot de Cadeloupte, and in his veins flooded the tropics. Of this creole blood his daughter is truly the inheritor. She has brought to art the same fire that she brought to the name of the name of her father remains intertwined with the names of Pelionen and Clementeau, among those who have lived with her. That of his daughter will remained associated with the names of Gaugin and of Morillot, among those who gave life to tropical art. Being a mixture of creole blood, blood black, and Indian; of the volcano and the equator; there is almanac, genius, even if the discipline of the Mediterranean and of France, have tempered later the first waves of laeus."
"When her father after having been twelve years deputy from Pointre-a-Pitre, then deputy from Paris, then Governor of Martinique, took the little girl born in France with him to Guadeloupe, who has since then retained all the radiance of the spirit of that sunny isle of beauty.
"Returning to Avignon (France), as treasurer-general, her father brought her back with him. She found in the sunroom of Wellesley al. so of Algeria, she passed away of winters, new harmonies of color, Latin and African, that made her decide to take the art of painting in structured, guided, and led by the skill of the great colorist, Pierre Givolas, then director of the school of Fine Arts of Avignon.

Harlem Girls
NEW YORK CITY.—Silk and electric lights are the chief contributory factors to delinquency of girls in Harlem, according to Mrs. Elizabeth Mayfield, who for a year has acted as girl sister in the Women's Day Court.
122 Delinguents
There are about 122 delinquent girls on probation who report to Mrs. Mayfield each week between 5:30 and 8:30 a.m. and have girls who are from the South, she says. In some cases these girls have come to live with friends whose character was above reproach back home, but were uncumbered to evil influences in Harlem.
This the girls did not know until they found themselves a victim of the unwholesome environment. Mrs. Mayfield suggested the need of an copper-

INSANITY HEARING
President Coolidge To Review Case
WASHINGTON, D. C. — Philip Jackson was granted his seventh stay of execution by Justice Sidons last Friday.
The condemned was to die in the two electric chair in the District jail Tuesday. His lawyer, John H. Wilson, however, went into court and asked for another stay for the condemned man in order to give President Coolidge an opportunity to pass upon Jackson's plea for executive
Judge Siddons postponed the execution until May 10, giving Jackson more time to answer his petition for executive element. Jackson declares that he is incarcerated and sentenced to death. Attorney Wilson points out that Justice Hoelman, the trial judge, deprives Jackson's plan for an insanity

SUPREME CT. RULES FO
PERRY HOWARD GROUP
JACKSON. MISS.-The Supreme Court of Mississippi Monday reverses Chancellor T. Price Dale of Hattersboro, who granted an injunction命令 the regular Republican party in Mississippi to convene the March. It dissolved the injunction and remanded the case to the lower court.
Perry W. Howard, the Republican national committee member for Mississippi and chairman of the organization appealed from a ruling of the chancellor dissociation a demurrier and granting the injunction. Attorneys for the Howard organization contended that an equity court had no jurisdiction over political controversies. The suit for an injunction was dismissed. The conventions did not comply with the state primary election laws. While the case was pending in the courts, the Howard organization insisted, held conventions and placed 12 delegates to the national convention.
DAVIS SAYS GEORGIA
WILL BACK HOOVER
WASHINGTON—Benjamin Jefferson Davis, Republican national committeeman for Georgia, who was killed in a plane crash, is scouted the idea that President Coolidge will permit the use of his name at the Republican national convention at Kansas City, June 12. He is expected to be back, but he says that he is firmly convinced that the President does not run to run again. He pointed out that on three occasions Mr. Coolidge was nominated for the vice president. He believes that the President's wishes will be respected. Secretary of Commerce Herbert Davis thinks, will be nominated. The Georgia delegation will support him. There will be only three contests from Georgia at the Republican national convention. This is unprecedented. There has been a contest from each district in Georgia and also one from the state at large. He has rejected national committeeman. His selection will be ratified at, Kansas City.

Bruce Believes Heflin Has "Derouged Intellect"
The rumor that certain Howard professors have been suspended because of the bulletin is looked for every day. So far as the writer is informed, he has been taken. President Johnson has been taken and paying respects to white civilization. He is expected now to turn his attention to colored civilization on the Howard Campus.
Should Tell Names
Moon Tell Names
Meanwhile, the professors of unattendance reputation are maintaining that the writer should tell the public frankly who the accuser is in order that the suspicion may be beaten; for people are free to guess any name, with consequent embarrassment to innocent professors. We wish to advise such professors that they should be guessing the right names. The fact that the accused are being so easily identified destroys whatever the more charitable critics might give.
Occasionally, two additional names are thrown in for good measure, but there seems to be no surprise, in the case of the Campus, concerning the professors; marvel is that this condition had not made its way to the press long before an indignant student exposed it.
People of sound judgment and integrity declare that these charges are not myths. There is something rotten in Denmark, and abundant information is available. President Johnson finds any difficulty in judging these cases, the writer will begin to give the public as much of the cases, omitting the much of the names, as he can secure. The writer finds that a dependent investigation and will begin the exposure as soon as he is satisfied that no action is to be taken. The matter is too serious to die a natural death. Certain female students have fearlessly accused professors of conduct unbecoming their position. The female students making these charges still remain, and the professors. Not even the Delphian Oracle could reconcile this situation.
Patient
The patrons of Howard University will remain patient but persistent. We have been dedicated to the development of true womanhood needs purifying. College residence constitutes a period of time in which we start qualities of the professors actually more than many of their midwed lee-
WASHINGTON, D. C.-Continuing his attacks on the Catholic Church and Governor Alfred Smith in the Senate, Tuesday, Senator Thomas J. Hefflin, (Dem. Ala.), repeated his criticism of the New York government on Tuesday. New York City and support of the Dyer anti-lynching bill by Tammany Democrats in Congress, charged that the "social equality ideas" of Governor Smith are hurtful in the South. "Dance halls in New York City were not white women," Hefflin said. "present a mean and contemptible phase of social equality." A effort of Governor Smith to have the anti-lynching bill passed when Democrats from Tammany would not vote with southern Democrats in the measure. Hefflin asserted, "was putting a premium on the crime of rape, sowing dragon's teeth in the Senate, and in other sections of the country."
Replying to the diatribe of Heflin,
Senator William Cabell Bruce, (Dem.

Transfer Foe Of
- Contact with strong personalities and a comprehensive bibliography afford the best training that any college can give. Even digested facts, augmenting students' information cannot vie with the influence of the professors' personalities. It matters not so much what studies are pursued as what professors give these studies. The crowning glory of the college, if it has any, is the professor. Female students at Howard University come from almost every state and from foremost and from foremost. It goes with the fact that their parents expect Howard University to protect them against such indignities as have been alleged. Surely, emeritus from University should the foremost, in protecting these young women. Trainers of youth must not become betrayers of youth. It is to the mind of the professor for moral instruction, moral guidance, and moral example. Whenever such leaders fall down, we may expect the whole racial fabric of our moral education youthhood to be rent asunder.
Baconian Advice
Male professors of female students must accept the Baconian advice, to the extent of the obligation of it. Gossip can rapidly when its seed is planted. In these cases, however, the professors have not been the object of the gossip, and have been theirs. Still worse, rumors of like nature have hovered over their before. An official reprimand stands in their favor, and the reprimand was on the charge of unbecoming conduct with a female student. It has its axes when professors intrusted with the character-building of female students fashion traps to ensnare their charges. It is most damnable to persuade a student to take a fake symbol in academic achievement. Marks were never introduced into college for trading purposes. It is really inconceivable that Howarders of its faculty even four or five professors who are so lacking in the chief qualifications of their job that they do not merely for themselves but for the entire faculty. A rotten professor is as damaging to the influence of the whole faculty as his counterpart in apples to the whole barrow.
Some well-meaning educator invented the expression, "academic freedom," which has been conveniently stranded in schools. It was never intended to.

mean "social lawlessness"; and if the writer's guess is accurate, a few of the Howard professors will realize this ere long.
The "Bump"
A co-bd of Howard University has informed the writer that recently she saw one of her professors, at a dance, do the "bump", whatever the name connotes. Her description of it indicated that it was not com-posed by the Howard professor. The writer is not up on "bumps", but he is perfectly willing to give the President the name of his "bumping professor". He will not be necessary for him to unload facts upon which he himself has checked, but he feels that the patrons of Howard University should know the welfare of their daughters. There can be no compromise on matters of such vital importance. The administration of Howard alone can cure the writer and check others from stepping up.
The writer has no new philosophy to offer, unless the philosophy of deference be new. There has always been a strong estimate that should be maintained between the tutor and the tutored. Even a person of the lowest stratum of society will scorn the practice on the part of the tutor who attaches awards female students is other than professional.
**Evidence In**
Professors with osculating properties must not ply their trade with students. No doubt, their own wives would welcome such "confectionery" for their children. Professors represented these overtures are to be congratulated and not characterized as "framers". We can all well see why some of the female students in our classes such cases, though they may be indignant. If, however, womanhood is hereafter guaranteed protection, there will be no need of such an investigation for the next fifty or more years. President Johnson need not fear the public in these cases. If he saw fit to put the cases before the public, he would surely win the approval of the president. He must take to rid Howard of his misfits.
We hope that some decision is given within this week. The information we have accused can easily face each other. The records of the professors accusations looks like a simple problem in subtraction — four from four leaves nothing. The clean up will restore attitudes towards its female students.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER
The Negro Press has opened for itself a wide field of readers. It is getting our people into shape. Many persons read only the Negro weekly magazine, the Negro book, but they are learning to know their people a great deal better week by week than formerly. They are kept in touch with a wider endurance and they learn, too, that the average Negro is doing more than robbing a hen coop by the light of day or the dark of the moon; that he is going to school, colleges and universities and is entering into almost every event. They learn of the Negro from the Negro and find out after all the Negro is not half as bad as he is painted.

Business
Despite the far reaching business failures recorded during the last 12 months, and the present era of unemployment, business men of the group express a general optimism which is encouraging.
The plan of the National Negro Business League to make a complete survey of business throughout the country and the establishment to what is becoming a sub-bureau in the Bureau of Commerce, complying scientific knowledge to the development of group business, will no doubt begin a new era in this field.
There seems to be one outstanding fact growing out of the recent failures. Depositors of banks and holders of securities scrutinize more closely the personnel of their boards of directors and must insist that competent and trained men be placed in control of affairs. The real responsibility of the management of banking institution lies with the stockholders as represented by the board of directors they select.
Men selected to banking boards of directors simply because they have large following in another field of endeavor is the same as selecting a man to run a locomotive whose training and success has been that of farming.
Upper professional training in business is as essential as proper training in any of the professions.

"Cheating Cheaters"
One of the most terrible aspects of the miscled and narrow views of such men and women in the South who make up the leadership of a Blease or a Hefflin is what it does to these very people themselves.
Take the case of a white South Carolinian who was recognized recently being dismissed as a drunken sat in a local police court. When asked why he did not go back to Dixie, he hurried to explain that section saying "Look what Dixie did to me."
When the Tillmans and Blease had enacted into South Carolina Laws, statutes which gave white men the right to vote without education; without property or other qualifications while it made Negroes own $300 in real estate or on enough education to satisfy a bishs election official, they were cheating the heart and soul out of white citizens of that state.
When they taught white youth that certain laws were made for "niggers," that cheating black folk did not come within the perview of Bible doctrine and that chivalry and morality were denied by civilization, satisfaction of a bishs election, they perhaps did not know that they were cutting at the roots of their own civilization.
There are thousands of pure blood Anglo-Saxon men and women with stunted and dwarfed souls who hate the South for what it has done to their civilization, to be also highly intelligent men who are now outspoken in their criticism of the narrowness and hide bound prejudice which has many in this section within its grip.
Unfortunately at the present rate in which this narrowness is still being permitted to pollute the minds of the young whites. it will beages beaten to death and the poor and their mental facilities. But at heart these youth would rather be fair, square and honest and have called feeling that they were able to give the colored youth the same fair chance without fear of being beaten in the race of life.

When they taught white youth that certain laws were made for "niggers;" that cheating black folk did not come within the perview of Bible doctrine and that chivalry and morality were not intended to protect brown and virgin children; that they were sitting at the roots of their own civilization.
There are thousands of pure blooded Anglo-Saxon men and women with stunted and dwarfed souls who hate the South for what it has done, not to "miggers" but to them. There are also highly intelligent men who are now outspoken in their criticism of the narrowness and hide bound prejudice which has many in this section within its grip. Up until the present rate in which this narrowness is still being permitted to pollute the minds of the young whites, it will beages before there is sufficient reaction to clarify their mental facilities. But at heart these youth would rather be fair, square and honest and have caused feeling that they were able to give the colored youth the same fair chance without fear of being beaten in the race of life.
School Board
It as is feared Mayor Brenning fails to send to the City Council one of the applicants or some other member of the group for a place on the Board of School Commissioners it will be a tremendous blow to 112,000 of the city's population.
While sound argument involving every principal of fair play, good wholesome government by representation and the word of a Mayor in cause of this very promise, would seem to dictate the wisdom of the appointment, those opposing the appointment of a colored member at this time have advanced but one reason—the desire to keep the present board because it is composed of able and efficient men and women.
This argument, if held, would automatically bar the Mayor from until death of some one of the members for every citizen of Baltimore knows that the men and women now on the board are not only able but have served with unusual efficiency.
It has also been said that politics is playing a role in the fate of the colored man. That may or may not be true, but what is there to hinder the Mayor from brushing aside politics and sending in the name of some outstanding man of his own selection.
Nowhere else in the city government will an act of honest and fair governmental treatment of the 112,000 men and women divided off into a private school system be so productive of good results as in the Board of School Commissioners.
The thousands of children in the public schools can never be taught in full effectiveness the basic principles of patriotism so long as they know they are cheated out of fair representation and the text books to believe to be their own fatherland.
But more serious than this is the general principle of the thing. Here in Baltimore we have a farcical competitive system of government where all youth are supposed to believe works without prejudice of any kind, but which can be made into industrial and economic corner which almost doubles their death and crime rates.

This argument, if held, would automatically bar the group from membership on the board because it is not a civic citizen of Baltimore knows that the men and women now on the board are not only able but have served with unusual efficiency. It has also been said that politics is playing a part in the desired appointment of a colored man. That may or may not be true, what here is the case, but it bristles aside politics and sending in the name of some outstanding man of his own selection.
Nowhere else in the city government will an act of honest and fair governmental treatment of the 112,000 men and women divided off into a separate school system be so productive of good results as in the Board of School Commission. The thousands of children in the public schools can never be taught in full effectiveness the basic principles of patriotism so long as they know they are cheated out of fair representation in what they are taught in text books to believe to be their own fatherland. But more serious than this is the general principle of the thing. Here in Baltimore we have a school where all youth are supposed to believe works without prejudice of any kind, but which in fact has shunted off this 112,000 citizens into an industrial and economic corner which almost doubles their death and crime rates. As long as the city government twists laws and increases justice to maintain such a travesty, it will be imperative greed and prejudice to bear down its heel upon this group of productive citizens.
There is but one question for the Mayor to for such a child as simple justice—justice which will be as valuable as the moral con-
idence of the white child as it will be just and right for the colored.
There is but one question for the Mayor to face and that is one of simple justice—justice to the moral conscience of the white child as it will be just and right for the colored.

Brother Blair Gives More Self-Contradiction Of The Bible.
To the Editor:
I have bequeathed me a pamphlet issued by International Bible Students' Association. (Christians): "Religious teachers early in the Christian era, thought it well to frighten the people. Satan intended to do this. Hence they do the same external torque. Borrowed from heathen philosophers.
Thus we see, "Satan" no business acumen — the frightens his customers into joining the church and deception on the other ministers have for centuries preached and invigilated his pusillanimous adherents into believing that God. Before he created man, prepared a fire-and-brimstone heil of men, then accommodate all inmates. The fire is the grave of the only man. We are more concerned in the soul-saving business and dying than we are in economics and living.
THE RADICTIONS OF THE BIBLE Certain Kind's Animals Allowed for Food
We shall not eat anything that death of itself; shall give it unto the stranger that is in thy gate that he may eat it; or may mutilate soil it in the Deer. Do not eat it. And if he eateth which it may eat die; he that toucheth the carcase . . . , and he that eatseth of the carcase of it shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the even. Lev. XI. 39, 40.
Nevertheless those shall not eat. They entereth into man, it cannot defile him, because it enterneth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats. St. Mark VII. 18, 19.
The carcase of it is meat, it is eaten, so that shall eat them: the unclean and the clean shall eat of them alike. Deut. XII. 22.
There is nothing unclean of itself . . . the kingdom of God is not meat and drink. Rom. XI. 1.

To the Editor:
I have before me a pamphlet, issued by Inter-
national Teachers Association, "Religious teachers early in the Christian era,
ought it well to frighten the people. Satan induced them to do this. Hence they brought forth the doctrine of eternal torture, borrowed from the Bible, early in the Christian era.
Thus we see "Satan" has no business acumen—the frightens his customers into joining the church. With ignorance on the one hand, and deception on the other, ministers have for certain adherents the right to believe that God before He aided man, prepared a fire-and-burntstone hell of sufficient capacity to accommodate all "sinner's". The truth is the grave is the only hell. We are more concerned in the soul-saving business and deception than in the fire-and-burntstone hell. SELF-CONTRADICTIONS OF THE BIBLE

Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye
not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without
enterness into man, it cannot defile him; because
it enterness not into his heart, but into the
belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging

Commends Expose of "Uncle Tom Stuff" In Letter From Federation Of Colored Church-of-Maryland, Inc.
To the Editor.
The white business man who sent to the Afro-American the letter received by him from the Federation of Colored Churches of Maryland is kept confidential and the service he has rendered to the public by this excerpt. There are no words, allowed in print, adequate to express the abhorrence many Negroes feel, and justly, for these pseudo-leaders of the Negroes in the United States, a cusing mode of attempting to obtain funds for, if not a false cause, at least an overworked one.
It is to be noticed that although they carry a name, which to the uninformed would mean that they represent all the Negro churches of Maryland, there is yet to be found among them the name of any minister of note.
Commends Expose Of "Uncle Tom Stuff" In
Commends Of Colored Children Of Maryland, Inc.
To the Editor:
The white business man who sent to the African American the letter received by him from the University of Maryland land. Inc. is to be commended for the service he has rendered to the public by this exposure. There are no words, allowed in print, adequate for this purpose. It is justly, for these pseudo-leaders of the Negroes of this city, for such a contemptible and disgusting mode of attempting to obtain funds for if not a false cause, at least an overworked one. It is to be noticed that although they carry a name, which to the uninformed would mean Maryland, they represent a long-standing churches of Maryland, that yet to be found among them the name of any minister of note.
It is a terrible thing that such ignorances as these should be guardians in the vanguard of a future generation. These are, by their hypothetical God, "will not be capable of coping with the problems that will confront them in future" (Brown, 1994). God will not be capable of coping with the problems that will confront them in future ("Uncle Tom stuff" that seeks throughout this whole abominable letter. Like all men of their type, these holy men try to play upon the emotions by well-known methods. Have they not realized that the members of both races have passed the stage of being affected by such appeals to sentiment? It seems that throughout the history of the Negro in America, the preachers have always endeavored to pose as the leaders of the race. They do not have lead them only too well, in a direction of which we are not proud. They have done more to retard the progress of the Negro than to advance the progress of the white race. Time was when the dominant race wanted to be constantly reminded of its domination; therefore they were always easy prey for such gospel-shooting bandits as these theologians, and methods as are contemptible as they are ancient.
Is it not strange that these men who claim to be called by God, whom they supposedly walk with, and talk to, and who know just what God intended for us to do and be, have never been taught how to be. They have dropped each other, they could unite their forces and buy enough homes and equipment to house all the orphans in this state? This God told them who should rule and now superior the ruling class, he should not be dropped unless at least a hint as to how to become (not dependent) merely independent of such charity? The people should devote more time administering to the needs of the body, and leave the remnants of a life that was to the immutable laws of nature.

William Pickens Explains Absence At
Neval Thomas Dinner.
To The Editor:
This is May the 10th. I have read a news story from Washington, D. C. about a banquet that was given to Neval H. Thomas, president of the Association's Branch there, on April 27th. Thomas deserves all the honor which any banquet that and don't forget it—for I have also something else to say. This same news note on to tell how there was a great storm on the banquet night, and added very pointedly that storm did not prevent the notables of Mr. Thomas and then said with the boldest inscription: THE STORM HOWEVER, SEEMED TO HAVE INTERFERED WITH COMMUNICATIONS—MAIL AND TELEGRAPH—AS TELEGRAPH OF REPEAT. I WAS RECEIVED FROM A SINGLE OF PICER OF THE N. A. A. P.
Can you see through the thing? It is a plain case of organizational sabbage: They who had the authority to invite and to sigh, said in the first instance, "I will invite and then—by God! we can give them hell for not being present." Now, I am always reluctant to charge colored Americans with any SPECIFIC weaknesses—for example, the lack of all races are, on the average, very much alike. But I must say that I am sometimes almost alarmed by the extent of this low type of undercutting, ambushing and bush-whacking. If half the energy which colors Americans are expendible on is being used for defensible falls for each other, was expended in fighting side by side against their common enemies, they would soon become one of the most unbeatable minicities in the world. But they are certainly not the only ones. Nothing could be shrewder than to force a fellow into a situation and then to accuse him for being in that very situation—to refuse him an invitation to your party and then publish something to it make it appear as if he were kept away from own envy or jealousy or something like that.
I speak without fear and without reserve—for Thomas knows and other people all over the world that he is the good reputation of Neval Thomas. We all have weaknesses: I have everywhere tried to minimize his. And I am not blaming anyone for not inviting me to the banquet. I am not willing to eat and too much to say. But I am blaming whether it was for charging me with not having come as an uninvited guest. Even if I had acceded to it, I would have heard of the banquet before it took place. I could have sent no word of "regrets" unless I wired that I regretted that I was not invited. Thomas's other friends: You will not do much good for his reputation and advancement by that method. By such cheap cunning and slander, and by a saboteur the very work which you pretend to do, you have hobnobbing for him to impress others and to win new friends for him but you will cause him to lose the sincere feelings. He has hears: for not all men will be as confident as he is, conclude that this mistake was not really made by Mr. Thomas but by some of his erring friends who were trying to help him by a little camouflage. He has too obvious and too ordinary process of telling or insinuating lies about other men. That unsophisticated chap like me might have told the simple truth—and that would spoil everything.
Seriously: Ston the sabotage! The N. A. C. P. is an INSTITUTION: its life is indefinite. The N. A. C. P. will pass with the decades. We need the institution; we can tolerate the episodes.
This West Pointer Doesn't Think Much of Younger Generation Of Our Group.
To The Editor:
Being a constant reader of your forum, and being a constant problem solver in these problems here, I have several observations in which would prove the greatest problem confronting the Negro is what is to become of him as a race. Is he to be exterminated by sheer force and strength of the stronger or is it to be assimilated? If he is to be forced to a force and courage to unite and defy the enemy?
Because the Negro is so divided, his problem is a momentous one. There are the old school race men, the youth group and the middles aged thinker, the old school group and the middles aged in morals and impossible desires and were more dependable, they could aid their race a great deal. But they are more a hindrance than help in solving the problem. The middles aged group, those born in the 80% that the progress of the race is due. This noble far-sighted group is at present fighting the problems that the old school is afraid to attack—problems that the youth are too irresponsible to care about. There are many things that the race can overcome, but the race succeed—no other race can or will help them, and united action is their only way to succeed.

A Roman Catholic Bishop's Book Is Suggested To Senator "Coley" Blease. To The Editor: Senator Blease, of South Carolina, seems to be much alarmed over the matter of inter-racial matters. I have given forth that subject, but I have been reading a rare old volume, lately, by a Roman Catholic Bishop, Gregore, published in 1810. The same topic was then much discussed, and it will be interesting for many readers to have in mind a certain trend of introduction, quote from the volume to which I have referred:
A Roman Catholic Bishop's Book Is Suggested to Senator "Coley" Blease.
To The Editor: Of South Carolina, seems to be much alarmed over the matter of inter-racial marriages. I have no interference to give forth on that subject, but I have been reading a rare old volume, titled *Roman Catholic Bishop*, published in 1810. The book then much discussed, and it will be interesting to your many readers to have in mind a certain trend of the discussion. I quote from the volume: "What has resulted from those prohibitive laws more particularly those which relate to marriage? Libertinism has eluded or overcome them. Libertinism takes a place when men act in contradiction to man."
I leave to physiologists the task of unfolding the advantages of the mixture of races; with regard to the physical constitution as well as to the energy of the moral facilities exemplified on the island of St. Helena, where it has produced a magnificent variety of mulattoes. I leave to moralists and politicians, who ought to start from the same principles, but who are often in direct touch with the moral faculties of the opinion, which consider it a dishonor to have a Negress as a legitimate wife, whilst as a concubine she is no disgrace. Barlow, on the concession of the opinion, holds that premiums offered for that purpose. Neither the Negroes or Mulattoes can ever augment the white cast, whilst the latter augments daily that of the Mulattoes. The inevitable result will be, that the Negress will be the masters. Reasoning from this observation, Robin believes, that the distinction of colour is a scourge of colonies, and that St. Domingo would be still in its splendidness. if it had followed the Spanish policy which does not allow from intermarriage and other social advantages."

Northern Negroes Claiming Their Long-Denied Rights
(The Columbia State)
The Columbia State University is the only university of a century since a Negro had a seat in Congress. Opportunity is at hand or breaking the long record established by Martin B. Madden, who died suddenly in Washington a few days ago, represented a district in Chicago that has become an almost solid Negro district. Even at the time of his last election and despite his long and successful career, party there was opposition to Mr. Madden's being the representative from the First Illinois district. Negro students in that district their race should be the beneficiary of their votes.
Now that the death of Mr. Madden has created a vacancy, no other white student will be eligible to represent of honor sufficiently strong to offset the demands of the Negroes for representation in congress, and it is fairly certain a Negro will be elected.
The Harlem section of New York will probably have a Negro in congress before long, and Philadelphia
This, we think, is entirely as it should be. The Negroes have been more than a half century; the Republican party has conceded them nothing that a white Republican could possibly have, the crumbs first hand. Not once in this long half-century has the Republican party proposed that any Negro have a Negro congressman. Not once have Republican whites offered to cast their votes to reward some memorial and faithful support of the Republican party. Now, having the power, Negroes are now a congress. They should really have two representatives, each from Illinois, Pennsylvania and New York. They should have a Republican dare stand in their war!
(World Unity Magazine)
The duality between democratic ideals at home and conquest abroad—whether the aim of conquest be political, economic, cultural or religious—perhaps is the most peril which all the nations, apparently, have voluntarily accepted at the present time. The nation is urgent than that ordinary people become aware of the inevitable outcome. Our political status today depends upon foreign relations, and foreign policy, in fact, is the mirror which most accurately reflects the degree of democracy actually being possessed by force of habit, create acceptable pretenses that democracy has more than one way to be served; an unjust foreign policy trips all sham universities of life and death.
The reality which can never be overcome is the blood, one organism, one kind. Single-mindedness, integrity, can only be attained in public affairs if we have a shared humanity, a manent and inevitable distinction between "our people" and all other people, and a shared injustice, abroad invariably establishes injustice at home — whereby, sooner or later, we shall learn the sanctity and universality of spiritual justice.

Our Mr. Snoozelfitis, ever on the alert, to do something to make the world a better place in which to live, since we might as well make up our minds to stay here, has informed us a small pinch of this wonderful new confection sprinkled on the food or dropped in the coffee will make it possible for people to go for days without having to eat. The reason the world is so far behind him, he points out, is because much valuable time is lost in sleep that could be spent at the movies or this discovery will benefit humanity in numerous ways he says. First, it will deter crime because most of the robberies, burglaries and shootings are done while people are asleep and if it is not done at night, criminals will have to go to work.
With all the criminals working and leaking, and the police force of cities can be reduced one-half and taxes will be lower.
Factories, office buildings and plants can fire all the night watchhead, and goods will be sold cheaper.
Besides the economic benefits to be derived from everybody's staying home, they are greatly helped. Many of the divorces of today can be traced directly to the fact that husbands snore in their sleep. The other husbands a little sleep preventer, snores will be done away with and their married life will be one continual round of happiness. On the other hand, husbands cannot bear to see their wives when they first get up in the morning with rings under their eyes wearing night gowns. The husband will have with there will be no need to get up the morning because nobody will go bed. Many wives who are perfectly willified will wear handkerchiefs and handkerchiefs, balk at washing the bed sheets, thus many homes are broken up. With no sleep there would be no sheets to wash. The youngest girls each year? Why do children leave home? Simply because their parents want to sleep after midnight when the youngsters are having a contest and their fun is broken up.
Sleeping parents are to blame for insulting children are subjected to in the home, because they are awake when they ought to be awake when they ought to be awake.
Mr. Snookiezfitz is much enthused over his new discovery and declares that he is placed on the mark as soon as he can find the necessary ingredients to bring about the desired results.

THE MAN
I grudge to no man his form or prayer.
I quarrel not with any creed.
This world has room enough to spare. For you, with your squabble, a kindly heart is always fair. No matter what its caste or breed, he plays the friend from day to day.
Who sometimes puts himself aside. To do this, he squabbles. Who scorns the arrogance of pride. However he may choose to pray. I'm sure will never be denied.
For man must live his life on earth. Where hate and sin and wrong abound.
To do this the soul must prove its worth.
This the strength of it is found. And he has justified his birth. Who plants one rose on barren ground.
The soul is he kind and true. Too he is play the brute or cheat? In all he does and tries to do.
Is he a man men like to meet? If so, I say, when life is through. He need not fear the judgment seat.

Baltimore
By L. K. McMILLAN
Baltimore is a city of white steps—marble or wood painted white. And wood indications Ballet loves their steps. They no end time and labor spent in resourcing or preserving the natural appearance of these steps. In this effort all steps are insisted on the smallest and the largest, the youngest and the oldest engage in the common industry of scrubbing steps. Incidentally, you see every imaginable variety of position form, gait, pad and tub and grades of labor.
Country Town
Baltimore is a big country town consisting of long rows of monotonous buildings that extend and occupy a building all to himself; hence the low flat single houses and the extended area covered by the corporation. (42,350 square feet) are cheap, noisy; is in a hurry in Baltimore save visitors; intoxicated and gnawing through some colored section. They resume their free slow pace upon entering other sections. When the street car conductor says "You are a mediated body," he means anywhere from five to fifteen minutes.
Next Monument
The monument constructed in Baltimore will be "the unknown hero." All known characters, called "great" by this monumental city, have already been honored in stone. It is mediated through least in one thing Baltimore is initiating classic Athens.
Flowers and grasses are grown in Baltimore's nature's sake"; but it could be that, Baltimoreans consider hard white steps and loud-colored cushions of first importance. They are at least two feet tall.
Baltimore has many children. They are all happy. They play any. They get fun out of anything.
Lacks Sense Of Humor
Baltimore's lack of a sense of humor difficult to draw a deep natural laugh on any point and concerning any persons. The people are seriously pained by the innocent jests for forceful attacks. Here you are expected to mean all that you say. In this regard the Baltimore situation is perfectible. He is literal.
No Intelligentsia
"The city" of Baltimore has no real intelligence. In Baltimore the city stands in a quest. club standing acquires position serves as a fertilizer to thin beards, an extra stimulus to backbones, physical, an increase in club membership, experts in kindred endeavors. Literary clubs, large private libraries, circulating private libraries, greed for new boots and standard magazines, definite goals, longing in moving personalities. Baltimore looked in vain for her share.
Platform Seats
At big public meetings in Baltimore more only the rear seats are vacant. Platforms are never too large—places of "don't know me" use. "Don't you know me?" "No, I do not." "Where have you been all the time not to know me?" — an excerpt from a recent conversation. The man's name is Barbara. The following is taken from a conversation with an old Baltimore now living in Wilmington, Delaware. I had inquired about Barbara more. The lady in question see out to give me a thorough examination—"Are you acquainted on Druid Hill?" "Yes." "What course you know young X, the son of Mrs. Y." "No, I do not seem to know him." "Why, that is strange." They are people whom you are supposed to know. "F B." — First Families of Baltimore

So young people nowadays go to resorts, in the winter they go to resorts, in the winter they go to resorts, always neutral, always harmless, always neutral, for a good name, in Baltimore is rather to be cheerful or little or much freedom. Baltimore has three remarkable assets:
(1.) Large numbers of honest, faithful, believing common people. Our work is too humble for them; nor do we need the various appeals for help and patronage—so far as in their power lies. Countless churches, secret orders, enterprises survive because of their work; nor do they camp, they are deprived of the inspiration of witnessing and participating in a goodly number of successful businesses because of a narrow, self-centered leadership.
(2.) Family life — Baltimoreans love their homes. The life of the old slow "village" centers around the family, where the mothers are allowed the privilege of training in the home with their children much of the time; others are forced by low wages paid their husbands to work in service, some marry and others live in the Baltimore centers around the home. Family attachments, neighborliness, exchange of visits — including meals — are common experiences.

On Censuring The Student Publication
One of the greatest problems in the modern institution of learning is to keep a proper balance between the factors of uninterested development and discipline of the student's mental and physical forces.
The problem arising out of recens publication in a paper of serious criticism of members of the faculty at Howard University presents a case involving the most vital aspects of this vexing problem. Shall the institution suppress by rule that which the editor of a student paper would say, or shall that free expression may even if that free expression may result in serious consequences.
Applying the most modern methods of education to a solution of the problem of the widest extent that the wisest course for all students to take is that of free expression. The school life should, of course, be prepared to educate the student into safe channels, less the straight jacket methods are used the more thoroughly it is prepared to graduate into an actual job, the student will be no inhibitions except when up in his or her own consciousness. There is also an aspect of the matter of journalism if the student which must be taken into the reckoning. In life it is presumed that with free expression and open communication the responsibility for the truthfulness of his writings and must suffer if either by indulgence of an ignorant injury to any one enforced, or why we have label laws. It is important that this be brought home to the student in school when he or she would be in actual life. On whole it would seem best to allow open and full expression in school at the same time hold to strenge any unjust or librarian

Blease Victim Of Love Complex, Says Palestine Wells
By PALESTINE WELLS
The little story about the colorful fellow who married the white and was rather amusing to say the less. The poor little black boy was a star. The poor little black boy was a star. Please knows any more like that. Some how I have a snapping suspicion that there must have been a blackberry on the mother's family tree also, for that suspicion to have been black, probably to have been from a kind of business that is reaching slammy proportions in the South. The black's grandfather was a victim of that malady. Thousands of white men were from the same kind of business that is very fair maternal relations, evidently were blind to color when they mistook the ducky slave girls for magnolia skinned southern belles.
Intermarriage is a miracle to white America. Does it not seem just possible that they need to cut another word? Just so just as there are white men in this country, there are two hundred years they have developed a peculiar hammers after Negro women. During that same period white women secretly cherished learning, learning that they were determined by court or clergy. Since the whites are in the majority they will continue to exploit us. They howay against intermarriage not because they afraid we will want them; then they will be forced to offer honest and honorable motives for seeking on black women. Then their women can no longer hide behind that old race men to cover up illicit love affairs with

SONGS OF SOLDIERS
MAKE RADIO DEBUT
Songs which the race soldiers in the World War used to lighten their days of weariness, will be sung by the Utica Jubilee Singers during their program which will be broadcast through the NBC blue network. Sunday evening at 9:15 eastern daylight savin gume.
The songs to be used in the broadcast were recorded by Lt. John J. Niles, white, who was a musician before he entered the army. Jotting down snatches of melodies and words the soldiers he soon discovered the music shows showed more musical originality. Many of the numbers are religious closely resembling the spiritual.
Lieutenant Niles has collected this material in a book, "Singing Soldiers," and will be present to lead the singers when they present several of their songs in this book in the program which will be broadcast May 20. The program will also include material contributed by Robert E. Tremors, one of the founders of the Industrial Institute at Vulcan Miss, who commanded a colored battalion during the war. This program will be heard thru New York, and other stations associated with the NBC Blue Network.

POLICE QUELL RIOT IN HARLEM THEATRE
NEW YORK. — Her resignation, scheduled to take effect May 13, having been accepted by the house management, Ida Anderson and dramatic players at the Lincoln Theatre, created a riot in the playhouse last Wednesday at the matinee. Playing her 11th week at the house, Miss Anderson walked onto the stage and delivered a speech upbraiding the management, instead of beginning her dramatic sketch. In her talk, which was the beginning of the disorder necessitating calling out police, the actress dramatically recounted her arrest, the ill treatment given her by the white managers of the colored house.
House Damaged
Considerable damage was done to the scats and fixtures by the disorderly audience. Miss Anderson left the immediately following her speech.
Differences between the producer and the operator of the house. Mrs Maria C. Downs, white, are said to be come through extension of the skoe on the floor that has allotted them. Asked to shorten them it is said. Miss Anderson offered her resignation. Inez Clough New Leader Incz Clough, who was listed with the player Raffaella Leccec has been engaged to lead the bushrans.

and the Mediterranean which illuminated her youth. Mme. Casse then returned to the native sumptuous beauty of Guadeloupe. When in 1920, Mme. Casse decided to leave her paris ateller and her friends in Provence to spend two years in the French countryside, and finally herself in Guadeloupe. She brought twenty-four canvases, which were exhibited in the Georges Petit Gallery, thanks to the initiative of M. M. Andre Schoeller. Several of these paintings of 1922 excited the keenest admiration.
Guadeloupe
"What nature would can be more exciting, more grand than this Guadeloupe as rendered by Mme. Casse with its volcano summits clad in green and violet, and from which shoots fire from the burning heart of our planet; emerald isle suspended as it were in a tropic sapphire, capped by soft breezes, and inhabited by tight people, a mixture of three races.
"Perfect of muscles and of form as the Greek islands are these women on the canvasses of Mme. Casse. Perfect because the women of these islands, carry as did the Greek women, the basket and the amphora on the head of the hummingbird on the sea and from the sea to the mountain, women rich with a blood which flows voluptuously under their skins of amber and ebony.
"These women of Guadeloupe and Martinique, with their bright cotton dresses and silk bandannas are still the living models of the eternal Vendetta, the loveliest and warmest perpetually being renewed through the action of sun, volcano, forest and sea. Lafcadio Hearn in literature, Daniel Thaly in poetry, and Germaine Casse in painting have opened to old Europe the new doors of this paradise of beauty.
"Daughter of beautiful Guadeloupe, Mme. Casse has given back to her mama she will all love and loved it. Because she brought to it all the sensuous beauty of light and of lines of esthetic France."
There is a total of 145 pieces in the exhibit, all the work of Mme. Casse. The majority of subjects, as was said, deal with the West Indies, but there are several of Provence Bretagne, North Africa, and Southern France. Mme. Casse, who is probably not very well known also as a writer of ability. She is contributor to several art periodicals, as well as director of the journal of the Society of West Indian artists. She also does decorative work for the theatres. Her studio is 40 at bis Rue D'Alesia, Paris.

'FLO' MILLS SHOW
Howard Theatre Calls Benefit Off When Theatrical Alliance Interferes
"Bojangles" Robinson, Promoter, Fails To Appear
WASHINGTON. — Organized labor stopped the midnight show for the benefit of the Florence Mills memorial fund at the Howard Theatre, last Tuesday night.
Bill (Bojangles) Robinson telegraphed from New York City, Tuesday night, that he would be unable to come here for the performance. He had promised positively to appease
Calls Show Off
Rather than have the theatre-going public disappointed by the failure of advertised stars to appear, the Howard Theatre management called the show over. Over $1,200 was refueled by bake sales. Fred Pelham, business agent of the U Street local of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees and Moving Picture Machine Operators, and Joseph R. Branson, of the American Association of Music, believed to have boiled "Boijangles" to decide route to come to Washington. They notified all acts, which were advertised to appear, that there is a road call against the Howard Theatre and that any member of affiliated organizations in this issue would be subject to action by his organization. Every act on the program belonged to one of the affiliated organizations, the National Vaudeville Artists Association of Actors' Equity, which are affiliated with the American Federation of La-
Besides "Bojangles" stars advertised to appear included: Jack Peeper and Joe Bombrest, two musical players and a group of players from the National Theatre players, a stage revue from the Fox Theatre and a stage revue from Goeves Pictures. S. H. Dudley was to have been master of ceremonies.
Theatre On Blacklist
When the International Alliance became active, "Bojangles" was in Chicago. He had telegraphed that he would positively appear. Pelham wired the Chicago Local, and "Bojangles" was advised that the Howard Theatre is on the organized labor blacklist.
"Bojangles" wired the manager of the Howard Theatre, Tuesday night, saying in part: "After being billed and promising positively to appear tonight for the Florence Mills memorial, the emergency arose and he means much by reading readily understand. Mr. Low Leslie, Florence Mills' former manager, has engaged me to join the famous 'Blackbirds' to perpetuate the name Miss Mills made famous. Open immediately. This was the second time that "Bojangles" has disappointed Washington audiences. He did something a year ago. He was billed much at the Lincoln Theatre in a Sunday midnight show but cancelled his engagement after he was shown a road call against that house. Both the Lincoln and Howard theatres are operated by the same interests. The Howard Theatre was not interested financially in the Florence Mills memorial fund show. The use of the theatre and the services of the theater were not operated. E. Lehman director of the Howard and Lincoln Theatres, declared Wednesday.
He was furious because of the action of Pelham. If Pelham "has anything against me or my theatres why take it out on the Florence Mills memorial," asked. This afterward was directed to this statement. Mr. Pelham said that they had nothing against the Florence Mills Memorial Fund. He stated that they had pointed out to Barrington Carter and Bob Slater, both of New York, who arranged for the memorial to be held in the Republic, the Belasco, Keith's and the Strand, could be used. Mr. Pelham admitted, however, that they had kept secret their plans for fear that they would miscarry if they became known. Carter and Slater he said were not involved in the event until Tuesday morning in a conference at the Musicians' Hall.

Losing And Gaining
Baltimore theater goers, who have been found responsive to the Regent's forward step in bringing them the latest in entertainment, the Viaphone, have also lost something. The Symphonic Orchestra in the pit for the past eight months, is out for the summer.
Organized with additions from the former Royal Theatre Orchestra by Isaiah N. Thompson, one of the proponents, is the Malmquist self as a leader of purveying jazz and classic music. Now that the Regent is bringing "talking movies" to its patrons, the orchestra has been out 10 days, and already some of the productions are playing with other aggregations.
While Baltimore may be expected to welcome the innovation in auditory photoplays and features with varying degrees of enthusiasm, few, if any, will note the absence of the group without a touch of regret. There's hoping the orchestra returns.
On Getting A Mate
Out in Chicago, mid-western city whose inhabitants are looked upon by easterners as corned or bandits, something has happened. George D. Tyler, who was editor of the "page" and still is a constructor, is married, he reveals. With it, he has weded, he weddens. Mr Tyler has, has come the editorship of the Chicago World, a weekly, Congratulations Mon!
Spotlights For "Colored"
While extremely successful in fooling patrons about the ages of prima donna and chorines in many instances, when it comes to specific knowledge of use of the fire craft is decidedly lacking. In white houses, the larger ones in particular, spotlight operators have attained an advanced degree of finesse in throwing the proper kind of fire, and play the performers. Unfortunately, the masses of color present in the average race show do not appear to advantage in the brilliance thrown upon them by operators who, at best, are either guessing or following cues given that they are not aware of when definite chart of colors is developed, as there certainly will be in time, credit for it should go to race operators. In New York at the Lafayette Theatre one projectionist has considerable in use of the lights. Step up, men, here's a knotty one for you to solve.

Event Marks Close Of Art-
tists' Season
By WILLIAM G. BLACK
WASHINGTON. — The Women's Glee Club of Howard University rendered its annual concert, Friday evening, before an audience of students and friends at the Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel.
The singers offered a variety of melodious songs; the one of which, Kramer's "The Great Awakening," was written in a play by Parker's "The Boy and the Tock," by a tart, served as an amusing diversion from the more serious numbers. Viola Dixon, pianist, was the first soloist of the evening. She charmed the audience with her interpretation of "E-Minor" and Moskowski's "The Juggler." Both numbers received deafening applause but were not repeated. Later Miss Dixon appeared, with Jennie Green, at the second piano. The pair played a fascinat-
Helen Heartwell was a close in the favor of the audience, judging from the volume of the applause that she received, after rendering Gound's "Cavatina" from the movie Korsakson's "The Reigning Heartwell" her appealing soprano voice and her dramatic gestures were duly appreciated.
This concert marked the successful close of a season of entertainments that were sponsored by Dean Lucy Slowe, dean of women of the University.

Due to the show still draws strong.
Due to the good of a precious star
Gone gone, but not forgotten, no.
I hear her name wiser than
"Blackbirds" is good, it's setting the piece
still there seems a vacant place.
And here she walks the fine feel grand.
To hear her name, makes me the star.
The title still draws, I must contess:
She mind of so, she did her best!
God bless her, must she be the star.

Dicker For More Houses The chain is dickering for other southern houses at present, according to Mr. Starr's announcement. The 11 houses of the circuit are located in five states.
Waltz Impossible In African Music
MONROVIA. Liberia—The waltz is an impossible music form in the African perception of rhythm, according to N. G. J. Ballanta Taylor, young musician and author, who returned to the University of Chicago under Dr. R. Nathaniel Dett at Hampon Institute in the States.
Writing in the current issue of the Educational Outlook here, Mr. Taylor declares that the African does not understand how to divide the num- bers of positive integers, because any such division will still retain the triple idea.
The writer continues:
"The African idea of a trinity is unity. It is indivisible. In his per-ception of Quality are found the same phenom- enas as is observed in the relationship of day and night, strong and weak, masculine and feminine, and so on, which exists in nature. This dual phase of his rhythmic perception is not dislike of whatsoever may be the subject of the application of sub- rhythm forms.
"A similar perception is found in his system of tone relationships. There are two phases of tonal relationship, one of which is described as active, and the other, passive. In his musical expressions he makes tonal motions from one active tone to one passive tone and vice versa."

struggle for existence was & more
Sirefdous arty which ‘would "you
choose? The former, of course.
But when Juanita Brown came to
this inllesione in life, she ‘chose tht
latter. Juanita, you know, is one of
Baltimore's favorites of the ladies
of the ensemble, having played here
repeatedly,
Refuses To “Go White”
To Juanita nature gave the racial
features of the dominating group.—
the whites, But despite the fact that
her skin is fairer than ond of the
vaunted Nordics and her bobbed hair
reveals none of her Afric strain,
Juanita chooses to cast her lot with
the folk she terms “my people." For
a while, she admits, she lived with
an aunt who is a bona fide Caucas-
ian, but, as she explains, she was
happler with race people.
Perhaps her lineage had something
to do with it, but nevertheless, hers
is a simple philosophy. With a sim-
ple and unaffected outlook upon life,
and a natural liking for dark men,
she prefers just “being colored.”
‘Her story? Tt goes back to New
Orleans —America’s replica of Old
World quaintness and city of varie-
gated racial types. Well, it’s the
sid story. Her father was white and
her mother was colored. Of either
she knew but little, for they died,
when she was three years old.

NEW YORK. — Snatching at the
glory of its predecessor, now im
thering almost solely in the, mem.
ory of the late Florence Mills and
in the stardom to which Johnny
Hudgins “has risen, “Blackbirds ot
1928" invaded Broadway, Wednesday
evening, opening at the Liberty ‘The-
re.
‘Only one year ago, May 14, the
show from which the new produc-
tion gained its name, closed a year's
run at the Pavillon, London, ‘after
being, witnessed repeatedly by the
rabble, elite and nobility.
‘Metropolitan critics are divided on
the question of the merits of the
piece, particularly where the music
and comedy are concerned. | Walter
Winchell, of, the Graphic, however,
‘does see. merit in the dancing of Bill
(Bojangles) Robinson. He writes of
the dancer:
“He provided the wallop again last
evening, even, if he did muff the
Iyrics, but Robinson was a last-mo-
ment’ recruit, and he not only re-
Ceemed himself by registering solidly,
‘but he returned in a number with
Miss Hall and gave added, pace to
the momentum he started, His step-
dance is a most fascinating routine
and it drew tremendous handclap-
ping.
Poor Comedy
“But there are several. other high
spots in “Blackbirds”, ‘The dancers
dominate the proceedings and there;
is an abundance of expert, stepping.
The humor, however, was not fash-
toned by skillful wits. ‘The sketches,
then, mar what might have been a|
better summer revue. ‘Tim Moore
manayed to supply. a chuckle or so
with his material and the upper-floor
patrons seemed perfectly satisfied,
but the flat sketches interrupted
whatever speed the specialists arous-
ed and left you gold.
Hip Flippers
“There ig @ good-looking ensemble:
of brownskins, whose hip fipping.
thigh grinding and torso tossing’
found ° appeal, and the production’
has class. It is a more entertaining
revue than some of the other all-
productions, 90 far as its singing and|
stepping go, but the anemic sketches|
will hamper the attraction’s chances|
for satis{ying box-office returns.”
‘Need Drinks To Like Show
writing in the New York World,
Alexander Wolcott frowns upon the
production as sultable and substan-
al entertainment, He gives his es-
imate of the revue in:
“hey tell me that the greater part}
of it was recently most successful as
he midnight entertainment at a cab-
ret in the Frenetic Fifties." T can|
rasily understand that it would seem|
nore entrancing after n few drinks.
“he Blackbirds of 1928" is just a
¢hird-rate Broadway musical show]

Praises “Bojangles”
“Bill Robinson walks nattily on,
nd, after bowing right and left in
esponse to the huzzas of a seeming-
y enormous following, proceeds to} :
ustify and Increase them by danc-|i
ng fs, expert and tickling and de-}
ightful a tap dance as you may ever|
ope to see or hear. There is no|
ound in all the nulsy. flagrant eve-|

"The instructors seemed gentlemanly and efficient and lacked all semblance of the 'hard-bolled' type powerful town in such institutions," the report says.
Learn Trades
Older boys were found at work in the tailor shop under a practical tailor and seemed contented in their work. Other youths were found in the workshop, where they were being ably taught.

Bread, which is baked in the school oven, was found to be of a very inferior quality. The Guard Jury that women be employed in place of some of the men to care for the smaller boys and the Guard Jury that women the body did not endorse the change. The Jury returned a favorable report on the House of Good Shepherd Training School For Girls at Melvale.

HAMPTON INST.—Lincoln University, represented by twenty-five men, ran over Hampton and Union to win the collegiate division of the C. I. A. A. Track Meet, while Cheyney of Pennsylvania had a close run to win in the scholastic section of the meet held on Armstrong Field on Saturday. Lincoln came first with 49 points. Hampton second with 26. 1-2 points. University third with 25 points in the collegiate division; in the scholastic section Cheyney was first with 25 points. Bordentown was second with 22 points, and Woods I. Washington High was third with
Union Wins Sprint Medley
The exciting and thrilling race of the day was the sprint race which was won. Along with the race of the race went the Southern Aid Society of Virginia Trophy. The race was close from start to finish and it seemed for a time that Hampton was coming to the another main. Galloway, could not put enough energy to come in.
College Work Shattered
Hampton and Tuskegee ran the relay in the Robert S. Abbott Trophy. Hampton had little competition but even though the race was not close Hampton's time was only 4-10 of a second off the old record set by Howard in 1923. Captain Booker of Union set a new record in the broad jump by over-leaping the old record 1 foot. 6 inches. This record is remarkable in that 24 feet. 1 inch is quite a distance to be sailing through the air. Captain Booker was also entered in all of the dashes and the relay. Two other records that fell were those set by Robert A. Coles for the mile and two mile runs. Mitchell of Lincoln clipped 7-10 of a second off the mile record and 1-8-10 seconds from the two mile records. Mitchell was quite an attraction as he ran both races with perfect ease. Lincoln set another record when Bevan threw the shot put 9 feet. 7-12 inches, which is 1 foot 5 inches farther than the old record.
In the century dash great things are expected of Collin, the star of the Tuskegee Meet from Fort Valiant and the Tuskegee Meet from Fort Valiant he could not make the stride and foll after crossing to a finishing lime in the 220 yard dash, however, he beamed at the 220 yard dash with Beaux and both of Union one at the heels. His time was 22 seconds in the face of a head end.
Scholastic Vault Record
In the scholastic section one record with Dinges, Union High of Hampton, and scholars record with the collegiate record for the pole vault. In the 450-yard dash for the James Harden record, a beautiful race win in a field of contestants. In the start he was beaten badly, but cut out and the start had about 200 yards from the park with a time of 51.8 seconds. Boulder Williams, a record holder for the high hurdles, ran his last Hampton and won. Coles a new star star for Hampton, drove in second.
Drew: Directs Meet
The meet as a whole was well man- under the skilful direction of Howard P. Drew, one of the joint- holders of the 100-vard dash. The events went off smoothly with the hundred athletes in action at all.
Silvera Wins Trophy
The William S. Parker Trophy for the half mile went to Silvera of Lincoln. The trophy is the statue of one done in silver. It was one of the best trophies ever made, the beautiful Frank A. Youns National High School One Mile Relay went to Janassas after a hard borough bentown. Bordentown had a borough bentown, the last lap, when Manassas struck another man picked up the lead and won.

COUNTY MEETS FOR GIRLS
If the records that have been sent in from the county meets are true, as usual, the boys are going to the racks and dodge balls are all that are listed for the weaker sex. Having seen some of the girls in the past in previous years, it seems that girls here in Baltimore are not the only ones sighted. Future students may need more dodge ball and flag rages.

Mattle White and Josephine Walerge would get the latter would have get the swimsuits badges but they fell down in one or two of the three classes. They attended this class, already hold the Red Cross Life Savers' badges, so they attended this class. They attended this class before the summer is gone.

Morgan Racheuers
If there was a tennis tournament in Baltimore before Morgan closed, she'd probably win some of the trophies, with material she has on hand. Fannie Offut, and Alice Warner, all around athletes, and Ivera King and Lucy Burnell are sure bets with the racerist.
Bill Gibson Speaks
Upon inquiring from William Gibson, sport editor here, as to why the girls' big basketball games are given so little space in the paper, he says in most pointed manner, he reasons for the limited space.
He says that girls do not go about their games in the business-like manner that boys do. They don't advertise, and as a result, their games are poorly attended, as no one knows, of them. Many of the games are below our, from lack of regular practice. They fail to stage any but preliminary games; and when they do play the courts on which they play are too small to accommodate a representative crowd.
Some of these statements may be some of us, but Gibson seems to have sized us up pretty well. If you don't agree with him, send in your objections.
Phil At Haverford
NEW YORK. — With Phil Edwards in prime fettle the New York Yankees commit a heavy favorite to win the laurels in the Middle Atlantic States Intercollegiate track and field championships, to be held Friday and Saturday, in the Bronx. Edwards is expected to have little opposition in either the half or the quarter if he starts those events. If he sets the record to set a new record in the half mile.

SEEK JERSEY SCALP
Keystone Club. Led By "Syl" Smith. After Cockburn Tennis Trophy PHILADELPHIA. — Seeking to vindicate its loss to the New Jersey Tennis Association last year, the Pennsylvania Tennis Association will this season make a strong bid to win the Cockburn Trophy, now held by New York. The Keystone organization will present a formidable team, with Dr. Smith as coach and Dr. time form. After several years layoff, Dr. Smith was able to come back and regain his standing among the premier tennis players of the Pennsylvania Tennis Association, ranking number four in the 1927 ratings. Dr. Gordon, also a ranking player, will again represent the Pennsylvania Tennis Association in quets with the Jerseys in Philadelphia for the right to challenge New York. Ernie Asle, all-round athlete at Duke High and runner-up for the National Junior Court Title should make the team this year. Ernie Will no doubt play in the men's singles and judging from his showdown with the Keystone organization.
There are numerous doubles teams throughout the state from which the Pennsylvanians may pick, and with the leading women players of the country playing in the Keystone State will present a well-balanced team. The Cockburn Trophy matches will no doubt attract a large gallery to Philadelphia.

THE PASSING REVIEW
By BILL GIBSON
A DIRTY TRICK is the way George Rossiter characterizes the way Jim Keenan has done him in reference to his playing of "Fats" Jenkins, legal property of him, in the lawsuit against the man of Williams, "Fats" name, however, was given as Jenkins when the Lincoln played the Cubans a Sunday or so ago. That Jenkins is a valuable player goes to the point that Jenkins despite his preference for remaining in New York, should take his medicine like a man and come on down to the Monumental City. He ever looking over the outer gardens that the Westport city has to feel that it is best that Jenkins has not
Both stunt coach with his last respect to his wonderful ability, djenkins, or for that matter, any other player who goes to any club bearing a grievance, is worse than no player at all. He would only serve to stir up dissension and could not give the best that was in him regardless of how hard he seemed to try. Washington, Holloway, and Dixon, in our estimation, form the best trio of outfitters in the Eastern League today. Each of these men is fast in the field, runs the bases well and, in horsehose with vigor, it is the best department that Ben Taylor has.
As we have pointed out before, the Sox infield is a flashy one, its hitting however, not being up to what it should be, despite the clouds of the nightly X-Bees. And Jackson and Jackson are getting way on, and they are in a place that is "scarcery." Brown will round into a hitting stride ere many moons pass. Afield, as well on paper, the Black Sox appear to be the best bet in Eastern diamond circles this year and should csp the gonfalen they missed last year.
The first-place loss to the team, the Red Sox, was a 10-yard-to-10-yard arch, 1927 champions. Lockhart, Jones, and Wagner are still numbered among the missing and piled upon these worries "Ike" has had any number on the sick list, Lundy, Grier and Henderson, being the principal leader of the team. The first-place loss to the team, the Red Sox, to the infeld in the form of a star player who is to report from California. We don't know just who the gentleman can be, so we await the announcement of his name.
The first-place loss to the team, the Red Sox, was a good jacking up for they certainly moved down the Lincoln Giants, Sunday before last. While Dihigo left him, via the jump route, Alec still has Oms, who pounds the apple hard and Alfonso and Baro are no slouches. The wily Cuban, who is a go-to, is still in the lead, and he is still in the lead. Arrango as a strengthening cog in his machine and that a young student by the name of Mellito, now in school in Cuba, would report soon.
The Philly Tigers are rounding into shape and may give somebody trouble to get to the home of the team, but they are still in the mystery team have got to do some real building before they will be considered "any trouble." Hilldale is booked to come to Baltimore next Sunday and the Darby Cian should prove a good drawing card.
The Red Sox are in a way to get to the home of the team, but they are great to go back there now and splash about in its alluring cooniness, sans bathing suit "n' everything?
Cheer up, boys, it won't be long before the park pools will be inviting you to come in and enjoy a place to play. Our Thermometer, so you can see the game, is as good as you make. The most-stop flight, but the pool will be there to help you solve the heat problem.
A jitney, five pennies, has been set as the price to all who make use of the day at Brown's Grove. On August 10 you have a chance to use it and in run up to Brown's Grove, Highland Beach, or some less pretentious watering place, join with the funny tribe and enjoy the thrill of being stung by a jellyfish.
Summer is not summer without swimming, at least that's the way we live. Less than two hours to swim this summer, if you already haven't done so, but if you don't go in the pool, seek one of nature's own resorts, look out for the sharks.
THERE SEEMS TO BE an increasing wave of opinion in favor of collegiate and scholastic track and field competition as the goal. We will be watching the outstanding track meets of the country scheduled this month.
Starting with the Tuskegee Relays on May 5 the meets have been stung out for the succeeding Saturdays, the Hampton University Relays on May 10 and Howard University open meet on May 30. The C. I. A. tennis tournament will also be held on the 19th at Petersburg.
It is fortunate this year that the schools promoting these events have widened their audience, and agreed some agreement on the matter of dates so that no two big meets would be held on the same days. Howard and Hampton conflicted last year in this respect and the Lincoln team, faced with the dilemma of having to use the day at Brown's Grove, Highland Beach, or some less pretentious watering place, join with the funny tribe and enjoy the thrill of being stung by a jellyfish.
G
This year there will be no chance of embarrassment or for causing disagreeable feelings to spring up because some school fees slighted students whose experience in the past has been limited to possibly one meet a year now have the opportunity of more and keener competition and in the case of far-sighted coaches and schools that have the financial resources to afford their powers. Of course there larks the danger of overdoing the thing by entering star performers in more events than they really are to fit enter, with the result of burning out material that otherwise might soar. One thing is distinctly noticeable in the various meets that have been held, not only this year, but in many years previous. Race athletes have fallen far behind in such events as the high jump, pole vault and relay cleared (the bar at 5 for $8½ inches and the pole vault was won by a leap of only nine and one-half feet. These marks are by no means indicative of any Olympic performance. The athletes compete in favor of those at any meet in the country, Charlie Major, so far, seems to be the only possible candidate for the race in the Olympic jump tryouts and with Butler, of Geneva, Hubbard, and possibly Ken Wibecan are the best we have. Phil Edwards being lost to Uncle Sam for keeps.
GENTLEMAN JACK MEYV, as has been the case with most of his Aframerican predecessors, has had to wait for a chance to put his name on the list. He agreed to meet him, the bout to be bouted at Coney Island, May 25.
Quite some time ago Courtney showed the yellow feather in running out of a bout with Gentleman Jack—a bout that was no doubt, and he was not. He was not. George is said to have explained later that his reason in getting out from under* was due to the fact that the estimable Takesin Rickard was fumbling the ball in relation to the percentages. But he never got this info entirely across to the rabble and accordingly lost a number of his fists. And by the way, Courtney, at that time was considering himself as a challenger to the tiara of Micky, the Walker, middleweight boss. That the coming fight should be a wow might be inferred from the esteemed Hype igoe, who informs his readers, "You couldn't buy MY WORLD." And while we think of it, Humbert Fugazy and Rickard are about to come to legal blows concerning the Signors awors intent to sign Loughran against Pete Latoz and Leo Lomski, the bouts to come off are not as good as they appear. And with Loughran that calls for the fighter not to sign with any other promoter up to November first of this year, Fugazy asserts that the Boxing.Commish will not hold such an agreement valid and is accordingly going to present his contracts, signed to Loughran, Latoz and Three Elis, to the fictional fighter for a decision. So well see who's who.

Lymon Yokley, famous pitching ace of the Baltimore Black Sox, made a special trip from Baltimore to do some work with a recent shut-out victory over the Bacharach Giants to his credit he faced the Bulls smilingly and confident. For seven innings he sent out three hits and their dug-out in two-three order. But in the seventh Coach Seales, of Smith, started striking his rabbit-foot, and the fireworks began and the onlookers on the ground, the Bulls, had held out six hits and two runs when his team came in for their half of the seventh. But Tucker, the first man to face Yokley in the seventh rapped a first pitch, McKeithan hit a fast grounder through Yokley and was safe before Berry at second could complete the play. Tucker going to home, to first and was safe on a fielder's choice, Tucker scoring on the play and McKeithan landing safely at third. Walker was safe on a fielder's choice, McKeithan being thrown out at plate by Berry, Hayes safe at plate.
Walker stole second on the first pitch to Pitchford. Pitchford singled out Yokley retired McDowell and Williams via the strikeout route, ending the inning.

Captain Berry called to pinch hit for Holland, but Pitchford punished him quickly with out-to-out center; Berry fled out to short ending the inning.
Fielding features were furnished by L. L. Smith, Holland, Berry and Caldwell for Livingstone.
During the season the Bulls played a total of thirteen games and lost 143 out of 143 games. They have made a total of 143 runs to their opponents 66.

found it to be reliable and effective. It certainly comes up
to all the good things that are

purges the system of the poisons which accumulate when the organs do not act properly, and I would not be without it.
"I always give Black-Draught to the children for colds (when a laxative is needed). It is fine for that.
"My trouble is chief constipation which is always accompanied by dull headache, backache, and pains in my sides. I think Black-Draught is the quickest and best relief for this."

Another Delightful Yarn Spun In Slang Around Henry Whipperwill Johnson, A Young Man Who Thinks Well Of Himself
"I says here that a man killed his wife because she was familiar with a neighbor," began the legal egg amberlier over the cupcakes one morning as she imparted to me some of the info contained in the morning scandal sheet.
"Jealousy." I snaps back "is not nothing but it." But it is of a neglected brain. It comes as the result of inferiority complex and only grows in minds which is more or less undernourished in thinkfood. Now a man of my intelligence could not be got paleo because I appreciate my own value and feels that the person up whom I invades my affections does the same.
"You don't seem to have a very excited opinion of yourself," answers the storm and strife sarcastically. "If I had to pass through the deal again I didn't bother with what was the last male species earth."
that side of the fence out of my system yet and they been gone in month."
Of course, it ain't till I return home that evening after collaring the 'slab all day that the spouse greets me with the knowledge that the blimbo who is to be our neighbor is named Joseph P. Goosenberry.
An Old Joe Goosenberry from Spokane or boyhood friend asks with excitement in my articulation. "I'll go right over and extend that old rascal key to the section before I eats my supper."
"Why, I didn't know you was acquainted with Joe," falters the wife. "Acquainted?"
Joe and I laid across the same mannies' knee and had our breeches sewed up together but what do you know about him?
"Oh nothing," says she shylike. "Oh no, I don't love me same near getting married once I was born in my marriage." Joe is a nice boy though and
"I there is no doubts about that," I reply, "because you would probably be trampled to death in the rush."
This snappy comeback, which I remember from a show she she her up for a moment, shows she can't think to reply with and she leaves the table in a huff and sadies over to the window biting her lips to avoid further verbal hostilities until I gets out of the house.
"Why dear," she yells excitedly, forgetting her feelings in her anxiety to try to convince her that "do you know somebody is moving that vacant house next door?" "Pretty cheap pataters," I remarks after one look at the brand of furniture which is being carted into that dump, which in no way compares with the aristocratic tastes which beautifies our own domicile.
"I wonder who in the world they can be ones on the frum excitedly, who else they are nice congenial neighbors."
"For my parts", I answers grabbing my headgear from the hallrack. "I is just about as enthused over taking up with every Tom, Dick and Harry, that tears down that for wend support does as I is for staging a stunting match with an octopus. I am not got the disagreements I had with that last klan who dirtied up

Of course, it ain't tint I returns home that evening after collaring the siab all day that the spouse meets with the knowledge that the blimbo in my neighbor is named Joseph P.

"T'll go right over and extend that old rascal the key to the secton before I eats my supper." Who knew I knew you was acquainted with Joe. Failure the "Acquainted?" I answers "Why, Joe and I laid across the same mamnies' knee and had our breeches sewed up together but what do you know about him?" Nothing, she shylike, "only Joe and the same new marriage once — long before I met you. Joe is a nice boy though and I liked him very much."
"Why, that many old rascal never told me anything about being engaged up with anybody, but I don't sense that skuing son of a cucklebur stee we was 'mustered out of the army.' With the exceptions of taking on about a hundred or more pounds and getting bald on the top of his head, Joe hasn't changed a bit since him skuing, but he was still the same, but the surprise comes when I learn that he went back to the old brier patch where he and I was brung up and weds up with Annie Cahoon, who used to be the weakness of all the boys in my younger daws and I was kindly sweep on her myself. I was in the backseat and doing other things which womenfolk does when their husbands is hard at work, the wives become as thick as moths in an old fur coat during the days that pass; and, of course, me and Joe were in the backseat and doing the good, old days before we is caught in the matrimonial grabbag.
Annie, since I last seed her, has developed into a corking good eyeful, being always kinda easy on the antics, and I mentions as much to Joe one night during the cites and telium of show none of the boys had home had a look in with her while

"To observe the way you makes over her every time you two gets together one would think we was spit-tittle twins and you was near-sighted and couldn't tell the difference." I never knew where saint the slightest excuse was, raising over a perfectly harmless situation. Why Joe and me was the best of friends back on the goosegreens and Annie was just an old childhood sweetheart of mine.
"That's just what I knows and from the compliments you two is always asking you to think you was in your second childhood. Joe tells me that that potwasher of his is always lambasting him and handing you a lot of verbal applause, asking him why he don't do this or that like you does. He, being a numbskull, thinks it is. I know that is. I know that is biting him in the back."

Don't Make a Toy Out of Baby —Babies Have Nerves
By RUTH BRITTAIN
Much of the nervousness in older children can be traced to the overstimulation during infancy, caused regarding baby as a sort of an maternal or parent's instrument of parents, relatives and friends. Baby may be played with, but not for more than a quarter of an hour to an hour daily. Beyond that, being handled, tickled, caused to laugh or cry, is another instrument in vomiting, and involuntarily causes irritability, crying or sleepiness.
Fretfulness, crying and sleeplessness from this cause can easily be avoided by treating baby with more consideration, but when you just can't see what is making baby restless, you can drop of pure, harmless castoria. It's amazing to see how quickly it calms baby's nerves and soothes him to sleep; yet it contains no drugs or opiates. It is purely vegetable—the recipe is on the wrapper. Leading children to diarrhea, constipation, gas on stomach and bowels, feverishness, loss of sleep and all other "upsets" of babyhood. Over 25 million bottles used a year shows its overwhelming popularity. With each bottle of Castoria, you get hooked on Motherhood, with weight in gold. Look for Chas. H.Fletcher's signature on the package so you'll get genuine Castoria. There are many imitations.
man as big in spirit as I is could not be guilty, yet the words of my wife about her could have been Mrs Joe Goosenberry, as though that was not so important to me in my ears. The more I thought of it the more it *t* under my collar and by nightfall I had convinced myself that Joe Goosenberry is the most contemptible individual in my immediate acquaintance.
I ask him, how I must have felt when I canzed in the house and the wife meets me, beaming with a smile and carrying an armful of cut flowers.
"Just look!" she says happylike, "at the wonderful bouquet Joe sent me. Just think, all these years have passed, and has not forgotten that today is in my heart. I am not sweet of him, the dear boy," she completes taking a long sniff.
"Don't throw them poses away." I says taking off my coat, "just save to go with the ashes to ashes and then put them in a dish of finishes with that meal-youth back-biter, you'll have plenty of use for them blossoms. I'll teach that squash brains to give my wife presents during my absence." I pleading is of no avail as I rolls the sleeves and starts out the front door.
"Go to your room." I ordered from the porch, because the catastrophe which is going to be enacted here when I get my hands on that bimbo in my room, no woman with a weak heart to see. I mount the steps that leads to Joe's house, mad enough to melt iron ore in my derby, and just as I am hears Joe's voice rage, screen door hears Joe's voice rage, screen door lady. I don't see them, but Joe sounds mad enough to take a piece of meat from a hungry lion in a fist fight. "If I try to stop me!" I hear iron roar. "If I get my hands on the man-faced reptile in the alfaal. I'll break his bones so fast it will sound like a Chinese preparing macaroni. What right, has that rattlebrained man got? If it is pretty verses and bon bons even if it is your birthday? Let me at him!"
I suddenly recalled that sending Annie a box of chocolates with a verse in keeping with my high poetic appreciation the previous night, so knows I Joe intends that she should in the shade his fertilizer. I changes my mind about going in and slips down to the corner drug store and calls him up. "Joe," I says, "you're a life-saver sending the wife them flowers for her birthday. I had plum forgot it and I am in a pretty kettle of fish." Joe old man, was just getting ready for you, you thank you for sending the wife that box of candy, I forgot about it. Now we can say that you and me planned to surprise each other's wives. That's a good scout, bill. Well, over the mountain, Old boy. and through those woods." I answers, "you know, Joe, we men got to stick together to outwit these women folks."

In Darker Baltimore
By RALPH MATTHEWS
Fully realizing that left to his own devices, the human animal is a lazy creature, and will resort to any measures to obtain the wherewithal to get his food and shelter with the smallest possible exertion. I am not in the least surprised at the letter sent out by certain local baptist ministers begging for funds last week.
Baptists, who are known as fundamentalists, have by this bogus move, which came to the eyes of the darker brethren by accident, won for themselves the title of "Fumblementals".
Other Baptists naturally raised a bowl of protest against the signers of the letter, which they claim reflects on the race, but knowing the average swallowtalled immersionists as I do, I am skeptical enough to say that the brethren are not so much concerned over the reflection cast on the race as they are about the fact that the writers kept their good scheme to themselves.
The best thing the Negro does is resent the slightest intimation that anybody on earth is superior to him. He talks loud and long trying to prove that all men are created equal, but no war was ever won with argument.
While we most heartedly resemble the statement that Negroes are inferior to any other race, yet we Baltimoreans are doing very little in a practical way to disprove the statement. True, we have a few lawyers who do not mind being disciplined mentally with any other race, out should the white folks suddenly decide to fire all their cooks, maids, butlers and janitors every one of our intelligence would starve to death. True, we have many ministers who can preach brilliant sermons and some of the finest churches ever built for them to deliver them in, but they are not the ones who sell the staples on the corner suddenly decide not to sell to customers of dark complexions the masses would follow the same fate of the intelligence. Our lodge and dance halls, too, would not suffer by comparison, but there isn't enough regalia in the whole lot to keep their wearers warm, and the clothing stores operate by our farther brethren be closed against, us.
If the clergymen who wrote that letter made any mistake at all, it was merely grammatical. Instead of saying "The whites should rule" they should have said "The whites do rule". Religious Education
Rather than condemn the ministers who sent that letter, I am more inclined to admire them for their spunk and courage. Few people now know what to do. They are not "Just as good as you are" even when they are begging you for money. If, however, we must condemn them, and no well behaved columnist could write a column without them, some people they are denim them planning to start a denominational school if that is what they really intended to do with the money. There is anything that complete illusion those unfortunate enough to come under its wing, it is religious education.
work in schools. While as much schools grow in size and prominence they find it decidedly to their financial advantage to broaden their program and say that this school is for all regardless of creed or belief, yet that religious aspect prevails. Religious education, which we like to call 'preparation for world service', places the student at a decided disadvantage, because which the stuff that is pummed into him is idealistic instead of practical.
He is constantly being told in lectures, alive with biblical and sacrificial allusion, that he is not being trained for his own sake, but for the great service that he can give to the world.
As a consequence the student goes forth believing that the world is some Uttonia just waiting for him to lug it off on his shoulders when, as a matter of fact, the world is so vast that that doesn't give a darn whether he gets enough to eat or not let alone turn things upside down.
Through the veil of optimism that he hives over his eyes he cannot see that all about him there is greed, avarice, grafting. He drifts on believing that it is divine to denise itself the good things of the world with the hone of getting in heaven. After a while you see that he is more than a hum counter but an automat where you pay for what you get and serve yourself.

BEAUTY HINTS
In selecting your Easter costume, pause long enough to make sure that the color you are about to use is becoming. Then if you wish to use a contrasting color get one that harmonizes with it. Let your accessories, shoes, and hair be shaded so that they can be worn with this dress or with one color of your trimmings—thus economizing. It is wiser to keep to one or two shades when one’s finances are limited—otherwise there is likely to be stylized of colors and you lose the style of your look. Study yourself and keep to the one or two shades that are most becoming and are indeed “Your Colors.”

JACKSONVILLE. **DADEN**
The fact that the general policy of organized labor in America is to stress the necessity of the solidarity of labor regardless of race, color, or gender is followed the traditions of the South, relating to it is to a large extent advocating separate unions for white and Negro workers. A large number of Negro workers also favor unions for themselves, more, it seems, however, on account of unsatisfactory experience with organized white labor than from deliberate choice. **DEPENDENCE**
White labor leaders give various reasons for their preference for separate unions for Negro workers. An official of the Central Labor Union, Johnston-Salem, Illinois, for instance, maintains his choice, the score that the general public in the South would be more hostile to organized labor should it maintain any relation with Negro labor that is not racial. The score of social equality between the races
Another labor leader, more astute can the Winston-Salem official, explains that the Negro needs the experience in leadership and the use of equipment in the labor movement. Still others explain that Negro labor and white labor can best go along if both have separate uni-
Mixed Locals
It appears, however, that mixed locals are formed with little hesitation. The local government dictate such a policy, provided that local southern tradition is not too hostile to the social question, whose role the South and white labor leaders are very cautious in their dealings with Negro labor last they are accused of promoting social, equality between the races.

In a feature story in the metropolitan newspaper, *The New York Times*, copies from the New York Gazette for May 12, 1777, advertising the confection for sale. Further, she says, purporting to quote an ancient account, she was known to the Japanese in the 19th century. In 1580 it found its way into the kitchen of Catherine de Medei, according to an announcement by a recipe was published for making ice cream in England in 1789.

Waitresses Pay $10
To $15 Week for Job
NEW YORK. -- That waitresses must pay $10 weekly for their jobs instead of receiving pay from the Alice Foote McDougall Coffee Shops was testified last week, in court by Bakers. Employed by the firm for seven months, Miss Baker quit the job she testified, and demanded her pay up, where she was told the law had no jurisdiction in the matter.
Waitresses in the chain shops earn from $10 to $15 a day, according to the owner of a Negro statement. The owner of the coffee shops, Mrs. McDougall, white, was forced to pay damages some time ago to the late William C. Matthews for refusing to serve him.
WORKERS' DEATH RATE INCREASES

RACES TO FORM CENTRAL LABOR BODY IN GEORGIA
lief that "it is imperative that colored workers be organized as well as white workers to be done," says Mr. Googe, "unscrupulous bosses will not hesitate to use one group of workers against the other group." Googe has just returned from the convention of the Georgia State Federation of Labor where a resolution was introduced urging that all groups of organized workers encourage the use of colored workers. Mr. Googe is one of the youngest and most liberal white leaders of the entire South, and it is believed that race discrimination organized white and colored labor will improve under his leadership.
Cleveland Hotel Men Organize
CLEVELAND, Ohio—Following several months of preliminary discussion, a committee completed plans for the organization of hotel men here at James A. Jackson, assistant business specialist of the U. S.

Already thirty hotel owners and managers have indicated their intention to become charter members of the Majestic and Mr. year, are handling the detail work.

GOOD MORNING JUDGE
A Year Makes Little Difference in Law
Just as absence can make the heart grow fonder, it can make the heart grow bitter as well, was proven when Sedrick Sattchell was arranged for a larceny charge. Wednesday:
"Judge. Your Honor," said Benjamin Gray, 620 Conway street, "this one year ago at the house where I live now and he wanted to go home to Charlotte. N. C. and asked me to buy him from him in order to get money from him against him, but he didn't appreciate it."
"Sorry," said the Judge, "but there is no law against ingratiance."
He stole the suit and gave him the money he stole the suit back again and took another one of mine besides. He has been gone year and the other was taken to town and I had him locked up.
"Satchell," said the Judge. "As long as you stayed in North Carolina you were free, but now you are here you must go to jail; I hold you for court."
They Missed Him Going But Got Him Coming
"How much will you give me on this?" asked Charles Lewis of a pawny Ballmoron and Pine street, cornering on the counter. Before he could get an estimate a patrician walked in the door. "What is your caricature?" asked the officer. "Yes." Lewis replied nervously. "Well, play me a tune and prove it," said the officer. When Lewis made a call, he was arrested on suspicion and later he admitted that he had stolen the instrument from a musician in the Barnum and Baily Circus and with larceny, the magistrate was told because they could not find the owner to prefer a charge against him. "Where do you live?" asked the judge. "I am a native of Norfolk, but I haven't any home now." "Good," said the judge, "we can't hold you for larceny, but we can charge you with vengeance, tug-bond and warrant. Three months in the House of Correction."
A Little Fun Is Costly In Booth Street
The whole neighborhood fights down in Booth street when trouble starts. The tree of the neighbors were used for creating a disturbance. Wednesday.
According to testimony, Mrs. Estelle Taylor, 940 Booth street, made a request for Marshall as the latter passed her home.
Mrs. Marshall told her husband, William Marshall, 942 Booth street, of the occurrence and Marshall went off the neighbor's home and demanded apology. Mrs. Taylor refused to give the apology, but after Marshall returned to his home, she followed him with a knife. Marshall took his front door down, Marshall, looking out of an upper window, saw her at work and pulled one of the shutters and threw it on her head. Marshall also intervened at three were fined $10 and costs each in the Western.
