Segregation At General Assembly Causes Resolution By Commission Section In Gallery Set Aside TULSA, Okla. - Vigorous protest against segregation was voiced in a resolution adopted the day before by Presbyterian Church in session here. The resolution was offered when the local committee set aside a section of the gallery to host speakers and participants. While the commissioners sent to the Assembly as delegates are seated by Presbyteries and voting sections they are attending the meetings have been required to go to the gallery. Protest Made To this arrangement all of the race commissioners as well as a number of the whites protested and resolution was offered by Commission William Lloyd Imes, of New York City. In a letter published in the AFRO-AMERICAN this month, Frank Gillmore, of Washington, D.C., severely scored the action of his church in segregating the group. According to George E.

Unchallenged undisputed BALTIMORE, MARYLAND, SATURDAY, PUNE 2, 1928 Politics Unlikely To Succeed Where Methodists Fail KANSAS CITY. (By Carl Murphy) —It is fairly certain that delegates to the Republican National Convention have been on the month will fall before this city's jim-crow policy in hotels. This means that colored members of northern delegations will be invited to children who will have reservations in hotels. Colored folk will be shunted to private residences. He would beable Perry Howard, recently discovered to be on the Hoover pavilion, was here recently and "fixed everything up." How well he would have been able to when they reach this city. My guess is that politics will not be able to succeed where religion has failed. Religion has been a major factor during the ME General Conference. Our two bishops were promised quarters with other prelates in the large hotels. We would accommodate them. One of them was sent subsequently to an apartment hotel which turned out to be a "sporting house." Naturally, we had night residence with a private family. Delegates with whom I have talked not only resent the outrage, but declare the crimes and convention that Kansas City over their dead bodies, so to speak. Kansas is a border state like Maryland. The General Conference gave me all races sat together in meetings and ate together in the Convention Hall without the world's coming to attend. One white member of the local committee is quoted as saying, "We must not treat visiting colored folk better than we treat the latter be insulted." Therefore housing of delegates was placed in the hands of whites who knew nothing about colored people, and they were together with five children living in a two-room house was assigned in two delegates, and scores of local people with fine clothes. That comfortable homes were found for delegates was not to the credit of the white committee in Kansas City, but of thoughtful Kansas City colored folk, who insisted that the rooming list for delegates be revised and supervised. Some people will likely come to the aid of the G. O. P. when it is evident that the coniferhead hotels are going to die to the politicians and ate together done to the pastors, and prelates. SANFORD, N. C. — *Murderer McLeod, convicted of murdering an aged white woman on March 27th, was found guilty by a twelfth court who sentenced him to die in the electric chair. here, July 13.

(ANP) What is purported to have been a race riot in the Edison Junior High School. at Berkley, was found to be nothing more than an ordinary fight between two girls.

MISSISSIPPI FIGHTS AIRED IN SEN. PROBE GA. MISSISSIPPI FIGHTS AIRED IN SEN. PROBE WASHINGTON, D. C. — Factional fights against Perry W. Howard and Benjamin J. Davis, National committeeman from Mississippi, and Georgia, respectively, before the Senate Committee investigating campaign funds, Tuesday. After admitting that $11,000 had been spent by his organization Hoover, he said a committee that a "Lily White" organization had sprung up there backing Hoover and fighting his group. This fight, he said, would be carried before the National Republican convention and if he finds that he has been "double crossed" he might not vote his delegation for Hoover. Howard said he had received $4,000 from Rush L. Holland, a Hoover paligner anger, and expected to get more Fight On Davis Benjamin J. Davis, the Georgia Committeeman, told the committee that he had received $2,200 from Holland, and that he had received $2,000 from England, that he kept no book and could give no itemized account of how the money had been spent. $200 was credited to traveling expenses of W. Stewart for a geographer in his office. Davis, who is being opposed by Joseph H. Watson, of Albany, Ga., declared that some reason they had heard that he had received large sums of money from the Hoover campaign chest and had not divided fairly with the Department. His reports were untrue. In addition to the $2,200 received from Holland, Davis told the committee that he had received $750 from Watson. $200 from G. W.

Marchanti were in complete control, although seven of the delegates to the national convention were from the Welder's Senate. Weller, himself, was not in evidence either at the caucuses preceding the meeting nor the meeting itself. The convention was taken in laudatory speeches setting forth the candidacy of former Governor Phillips Lee Goldborough who will oppose Senator. By previous action of a primary, the entire delegation will go instructed for Herbert Hoover. Evidences of a stiff fight in the pre-convention caucuses came out in the election of delegates to the national convention. Colored leaders instituted on representation both in the city and the counties. They got it. John L. Berry is prominent in fraternal and business circles and is commissioner of North Carolina Insurance Company.

COMMENCEMENTS CLAIM COUNTRY-WIDE ATTENTION Page Two RELIGION BORN IN AFRICA SAYS H. U. PROFESSOR Laid Foundation Upon Which All Civilizations Are Built Basing his argument on the fact that Africans are believed to have been the first human beings to bury their dead under ground in anticipation that they would live on, Dr. Leo Hansbury, archeologist of Howard University, told members of the DuBois Circle Monday that they were the founders of religion. The prevailing opinion, he said, that Central Africa and its peoples have played but a minor part in the history of human kind is fast approaching the end of its day. Recent researches and unmistakable evidence have convinced scientists that five of the eight known steps or stages of evolution in history of man are represented by fossil remains that have been in existence in Africa since 1910. have played a minor part in the history of human kind last approaching the end of its age. Its researches and unmistakable evidences have convinced scientists that the eight known steps or stages in the evolutionary history of man are beyond fossil remains that have been discovered in Africa since 1910. Race Traits It is also believed that as a consequence of these discoveries, Africa, rather than Asia, seems to have been the birth place of the human family, and that there is an ancient African strain in the blood of all extinct All of that region, said Dr. Hansberry, now known as the Sahara and Lybian deserts were once one oak and that it was the desecration of these regions which caused many of the Negro race living there to emigrate to Asia. As a result, the region was transformed into the yellow and white races. There was more Negro blood in the ancient Egyptians than there is in the Negroes in the day. Dr. Hansberry illustrated his lecture with a series of drawings and pictures, and declared that the pharaohs of the past had been destroyed by wars and economic conditions just as more recent civilizations have and the present civilizations will be destroyed. The year of the lecture by Dr. Hansberry ended one of the most eventful years in the history of the DuBois Circle, according to the book "The history of the year's activities." The lecture was held at the home of Dr. Albert O. Reid and was attended by some of the Howard University faculty as well as invited from the city. Among the speakers whom Mrs. Rhetta said had appeared before the Circle during the year, Dr. William T. Carr, William N. Jones, Bishon A. L. Gaines, Miss Vasilti Maxwell, Musical numbers were presented during the year with Misses Hermione, Pauline and Constantia Wharton, Mrs. Harry Brown, Mrs. Nettie M.

Mr. Harris has been connected with the Scout movement since its inception twenty years ago in Great Britain. The course last year reached its limit of thirty students and it is expected that the course will be actively interactive.

DEMAND REPEAL OF AFRICAN JIM CROW Missionary Conference Incensed At Recent 'Color Bar' Act Passage SOUTHERN RHODESIA, Africa. Characterizing it as a "gross piece of injustice" members of the recent missionary conference, held here, went on record with the council to salute by the council of Salisbury to rescind a 'color bar' act aimed at restricting the territory in which Africans might live and further stipulating the houses should be built by Europeans. Included among the speakers who entered the discussion was Bishop E. F. Puget, of Southern Rhodesia, who said in part: "There is not it is a gross piece of injustice to forbid the African to build his own house. We say that not only shall he live in the areas we select, in which we are not only in houses which we Europeans build. I do not think that we, as a Christian body, can countenance a principle like that. The color bar is slipping elsewhere, but in which it is slipping elsewhere, but just as surely; and if we are going to submit it to this principle, then we had better throw up any idea of the advance of the African people". The conference also took up the matter of the bill on National Affairs, legislation introduced by the Rev. John White, "that responsible government should be made more effective." We express it as our opinion that the only effective form of political power that can be ceded to the nation is the power of a basis that will encourage progress. N. C. Schools Win Honors HARLOTTE.

Anti-Lynching Bills Again Urged By Victor L. Berger WASHINGTON, D. C. — Declaring that Democrats利勒 lynching a state law, Represenative Visitation, in a speech, in the house last Saturday, explaining certain bills he had introduced, urged Republicans to enact a federal anti-lynching bill, and Bennett said. "Four years have passed since the Republican party predeced itself, in its national platform to the enactment of the law, or a Federal anti-lynching law that the tull influence of the Federal Government may be wielded to prevent the murder. "During those four years 70 persons were killed by lawless moors while the Republican party, which made this platform pledge, and of Congress to carry out its other policies beneficial to special interest groups, tailed to keep its promise to outlaw lynchings. OF VOTES This betrayal of those whose vote the Republican leaders obtained by making this platform pledge is an encouragement to lawless communities to continue the barbarous prac In 1927, 16 people, entitled to the protection of our laws, were lynchmen in Mississippi alone, which State holds the record for the year. The first duty of a government is to maintain the authority of its laws. The first duty of a government has failed to perform. Makes Appeal I hope the Republican Congress will not conclude its work until the majority party—the Republicans—enact a Federal anti-lynchning law. I make this appeal to the people of Mississippi, where seem to insist that the right to lynch a person is a State privilege, and that any Federal legislation seeking to abolish that valuable privilege is an encroachment on State rights. "The Democrats do not think it is an encroachment on the rights of States to have a Federal prohibition on home to find out whether you take a drink. So far the Federal Government may go according to the laws of the State but to have Federal agents come into a State to punish lawlessness which deprives people of their life and limb without a trial or a hearing. The Democrats are an invasion of State rights. "It is not only the duty of Congress but also clearly within the power of Congress to enact this legislation. In the fifth section of the fourteenth amendment Congress is given the power to enforce constitutional guarantees, and that power is broad enough to enact the enactment of the bill I propose. Bill Stronger "My bill is stronger than any other anti-lynchning bill that has been passed in the past. It is not any stronger, however, than the exigencies of the situation require — or the menace with which it is intended to deal would justify it." lynching bill in the House on April 12. Under its provisions the Federal Government would prosecute civilians and officials who have any involvement. A citizen who joins a lynching party would be liable to five years imprisonment and a $5,000 fine. Police officials whose duty it is to prosecute the laws and who fail to take the necessary precautions to protect them against mob attacks, would be liable to twice that penalty. Communities which lynchings occur should forfeit $10,000 for each lynching taking place in those communities.

KLAHOMA NEGRO BUSINESS DIRECTORY. THE WORLD'S FIRST WOMEN'S HOSPITAL Washington Page LYNCHI PHONE NORTH 1234 Freddie Rorf And A CLEAN UP CLEAN UP OR WHITEWASH-WHICH? (Sixth Installment) By ALUMNUS Some regret has been expressed that the AFRO saw fit to publish information from the Howard student professor on the part of four professors. In order that the most maddian of our readers may not have any apprehension and thus becloud the idea that before the AFRO printed a line the writer made an independent investigation and learned that certain female students had filed in writing disagreeable charges against the President of Howard University had asked the Discipline Committee to look into these charges; that the Discipline Committee had made a report; and that the President had a face with the Discipline Committee. Moreover, the writer took pains to acquaint himself with the qualifications of Walker Jordan, the student who would get action on the alleged situation, and found that Jordan was no playful, gossipy youngster, but a grown man of at least thirty-five years. He was able to produce no direct evidence, but was certain that some of the complaining students would file statements of their grievances to took despair of the administration situation which the administration must visualize and face unfinchingly. The fact that the matter did not drop suddenly with the filing of the report by the Discipline Committee led to some speculation. If the accusing students had merely hallucinations, or persecution had could identify insults, they might have been zubuked for their suspicions and the matter might have been dropped. Evidence of the report might have identified action on the part of the President. The public should know that these columns have not carried diehard morals, and that it is important what has been going on at Howard. The writer has not accused the professors of misconduct but has not depended upon them. These have not depended upon rumors to wait the information to the President, but have put into writing their grievances. They have done more than this. They have told the President the facts, and they have faced the accused, in the presence of the President, without retracting one D. C. MARRIAGES Leverita A. Nash, 32, 1413 T-st, n. w. The Rev. R.

If there is an error in these assertions, the lawyer will be respectfully requested to make the necessary corrections. The writer is eager for the public to know positionality is induced by rumors. He believes in the "open door" policy. Concealing Sin There is no vice in the whole catalogue of sins more pernicious than that of concealing sin. No damage can come to Howard University if you are not concealing the damage will come from keeping them there, if they are rotten, hiding, ignoring, or compromising a situation requiring firm handling leads to a repetition of escaping stern action. While the President is pondering over this matter, there has not one decision to stand out by itself: namely, that the accusers and the accused cannot remain at Howard University. If they are too dangerous to abide longer at Howard. Whose reputation would be safe with female students practicing such nefarious business? Again, if they are merely creators of mischief, with a mania for making trouble for professors whom they have cannot be justified. Mischief-makers are too unsuspicious to be trusted in an environment where gossip soars on wings. Beyond Suspicion On the other hand, if these young ladies have sufficient cause for their indignation, the professors have the power to take action, a co-educational college, the professors conduct towards the female students must be beyond suspicion. Gossip is, of course, hard to contend with, but it is based upon gossip. They are derived from written accusations with names signed to these accusations. Of course it is the "girl's world" it was ever such. How could it be otherwise? Offenses of the alleged nature are never so bold that they await-gre-witnesses. If direct evidence is furnished, the cul can seldom, if fastened. certi- these professors will have to be judged in relation to the subsequent influence of these professors among the students. Their professors are accused by female students and retain their influence among the students. They cheapen not only themselves but the entire faculty as well.

The worst kind of weakness in a faculty is the kind that involves behavior. The seriousness of the alleged behavior of these professors transcends the walls of Howard University. Forward looking members of our group have made a long and successful effort to own at the head of Howard University. A similar contention has been made for the elevation of our young, progressive, and promising students to the chairs of colleges. It is most regrettable that some of the Howard professors should be so indiscreet as to embarrass the present administration by actions that demand "tell you so." The fact that these professors allowed their names to travel in this kind of gossip is enough to provoke indignation. But to let them know that our faculty is definite charges, is sufficient to let them know that their presence at Howard can easily be missed. The prevalent feeling in Washington is that President Johnson will let the accused professors fade out of the college year, which is about over. The chances are that he will not make any statement to the press. Any standing action just now misguarded by the commencement season. Possibly, this is the logical way out. It ought to meet with hearty approval. It is inescapable that he should invest men's contracts for another year. Thus far, the whole matter has been handled. He has been neither hysterical nor indifferent. There was, however, just a little commotion when it was noised about that the female student was in the President's office. Some of the male students got wind of what was going on, and it is pretty certain that the students and the professors are. Identifications have been thoroughly established, these trips of the accusation the accused may be held remisible. Though there is every indication that the conditions that apparently take place in hand, there will still be need of suspense until we know definitively how the President is going to handle the circumstances, knowing as we do that the cases are not based upon facts, but on statements enforced by conformation, we persist in our query, "Which it goes to be — A CLEAN UP OR A WHITEWASH?" schools held their annual field day at Griffin Stadium Thursday with a varied program of folk dancing, mimetic exercises and Maypole wind dancing.

E's. COULD LEARN MUCH FROM THE M. E's Page Four ZION AND A.M.E. HAVE MUCH TO LEARN OF M.E. Analysis Of Three Gatherings Indicates Where Progress Is Needed 90 PERCENT OF M. E.'S COLLEGE GRADUATES Politics In Election Of Bishops Apparently Absent In K. C. KANSAS CITY (By Carl Murphy) — Zionists And African Methodists could learn much by attending the M. E. General Conference here. Leaders of both race churches could with profit have spent the week since the close of sessions at Mexico and St. Louis at Kansas City. First Lesson The first lesson to be learned is that Zionist and A. M. E. Conferences are too large. M. E.'s with 4,000,000 communicants had 44 bishops, 4,000,000 members and 864 delegates; A. M. E.'s had 18 bishops, 700,000 members and 962 delegates; Zionists had 12 bishops, 500,000 members and 500 delegates. Clearly, the last two churches are not over "bishoped" but "over-delegated" in General Conference. Ninety percent of M. E. delegates were college graduates. No figures were given of other Conferences. The Minutes M. E. printed a "Daily Advocate": A. M. E.'s a "Daily Christian Recorder"; Zionists no daily paper so far as could be observed. The "Recorder" was from one to two days behind in carrying proceedings, which were never stenographed. The "Advocate's" method of printing all bills and committee reports so that delegates might have a record of legislation and be able to act intelligently, was not followed by the other two general conferences. A. M. E. and Zionists spent long hours reading and adopting the "minute." M. E. did this through a committee. Laymen Laymen take a prominent part in the Zion and M. E. Conference which have equal representation of the two. A. M. E.'s had eight clergymen to 1 layman as delegates. The other 8 Pastors. A. M. E.'s Conference continued its antiquated method of limiting a pastor to 5 years at any church. Zion has no time limit. It is nothing less than criminal to place a time limit on a pastor of a church declaration. E. delegate on the floor last week. Bishops Bishops at the M. E. and Zion Conference are now presiding officers only. They have no vote and M. E.'s no voice on the floor. A. M. E. bishops have vote and will publicly instruct delegates of their district how to vote. Vote For Bishops. Most of all have A. M. E.'s learn to get rid of the cheap and tawdry political campaigns in which they select their bishops. Their method of permitting "headquarters" with street signs advertising candidates for the bishopric, then electionering on the floor and the general bedlam which ensued when voters on their way to the ballot box were entreated to "vote for John Joe" is in violent contrast to prayerful silence in other cities where the bishop lot. The votes are collected carried out and counted by 16 tellers while the conference goes on with business. Under A. M. E. customs delegates must have names called, walk to platform and deposit ballots, and these must be counted publicly while they look on one another in ballot for bishops required 6 hours of conference time. A single M. E. ballot seldom required more than 15 minutes of conference time. World Composition The M. E. Conference delegates came from Europe, Asia, Africa and the two Americas; delegates to the other two conferences came from the Americas and Africa. M. E.'s worked harder in morning, afternoon and night sessions. Keeping order was no problem.

Rev. Mr. Banfield is also certain that he would not attend the movies and would also advise His followers to remain away. In this belief, he finds opposition in the Rev. George F. Bragg rector of St James Episcopal Church and the Rev. Queen pastor of Eastern Chapel M. E. Church who feel that if Christ followed the same program as he did upon his previous visitation he would frequent the theatres if he so desired because there would have been a chance with the sinners whom he came to save. Would Not Like Churches All three are of the same opinion that he would be no more satisfied with the fashionable churches of today than he was with the temples old. They failed to state whether he would condone the existence of white and colored churches, but feel that he would attend both. Might Attend Dance The Rev.

Bragg who declares that the Savior would most certainly attend these church groups he found among assembled self-founded simmers who desired salvation. Christ goes out to seek the lost, he declares, and does not wait, as the modern ministers for the sinner to seek him in the church. The Rev. Wex wakes wathful on this question, however, and declares that it is both ignorant and sacred, and that he should be declared to ask if Christ would attend dances and play cards as to ask if President Lincoln would shoot crap or keep a boogie joint. Would Like Dry Law All seemed to love the Law would be very pleased with Prohibition as it is practiced in America today. The Rev. Bragg feels that he would exclaim "Woe unto you Scribes, Pharasees and hypocrites" and let it go at that. Woe unto upon the Volstead Act as He looks upon all good laws that are violated. He would feel that the law is good, but men are bad. The Rev. Queen avers that to even question the attitude that Christ is foolish because the real question involved is intemperance and the Savior frowns upon intemperance of any form.

MEMPHIS BANK TELLER TURNS STATE WITNESS MEMPHIS, Tenn., (Special, By Telegram). — Frenzied finance, check "switching" of large amounts and other irregularities featured the first day's trial of the second group of Solvent and Fraternal Savings Bank officials here. Monday, the teller of the wrecked bank, had turned state's evidence, developed when he was given a severance at the beginning of the trial. Those who went on trial Monday were: Thomas H. Hayes, undertaker, and for many years one of the leading businessmen of the city of Tampa, vice-president, and an insurance man; J. L. Yancy, assistant cashier and P. W. Thornton, teller. Evidence Called "Rotten" Evidence brought out Monday by the State bank examiner, I. H. Wilson, white, who was the first witness, revealed an amount of "rotteness" added to the official as the wore he had ever witnessed in banking experience. It was testified that T. H. Hayes, who in 1925 was secretary-treasurer of the Knights of Pythias, had on deposit, or should have had on deposition, a sum of $24,828.97 to the credit of the lodge. Records at the bank revealed that Hayes had but $1,500 there. Ousted From Lodge About this time the Knights of Pythias held a state convention at Nashville and Hayes was voted out of office, or should have made the bank balance of Hayes and Atkins executed notes for $11,000 and $9,500, respectively, making up the deficit of $21,403. Frenzled Finance To make the accounts balance Hayes took $21,403 from his account to the bank, to the account, the next day, however, after the audit was made, the sum of $21,403 was immediately switched from the fraternal order's account back to Hayes' account and there was no deposit or debit ticket to trace the transaction. Booth, well-known lawyer, is representing Thornton and Charles M. Bryan, white, is representing the other defendants. The court is crowded. SOCIETY Lovelace B. Capehart, Jr., of Raleigh, N. C.

CLINIC" GRANADY'S PARTNER TO AID CRIME PROBE Slain Attorney's Associate Named Assistant To Attorney General WITNESSES COWED Detective Brusseaux Investigating Murder CHICAGO, (ANP) — When the six specially appointed attorney, was arrested under June 4 with an investigation and prosecution of those involved in the alleged alliance of politics and crime, a former law partner of Octavius Granady, who was slain by gangsters during the primary, will help push the right to avenge the murder of the candidate for ward committeman. Harold Tyler is one of the lawyers who will aid Attorney General Carlstrom with the prosecution. To aid in the inquiry Sheridan A. Brusseaux of the Keystone Dept. Agency has been pointed as speculator. Brusseaux's work will probably be restricted to the Granady murder, but Tyler will work on the prosecution of the vote frauds which are expected to involve the Second and Third Wards, where the race vote is concentrated. A number of them to be investigated are many and numerous. They include election frauds that date back to 1928, political bombings which formed the basis of the so-called "pineapple industry" and resulted in the bombing of the State Senator Deneem and Judge John A. Swanson, a candidate for state's attorney, and political murders. Evidence presented before the coroner's jury revealed the atrocious interplay of crime and politics in the ward where Granady lived was shot and killed, relieving the part of more than three hundred witnesses to testify before that jury. They will not be called upon.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER In the new century to come, the Negro will beseech for only in proportion as he may he something; some give this to the Negro he may be sought for only in proportion as he herer or a Beethoven, but in any case he must demonstrate the fact that he is able to fill the bill and then his color will be no bar to his advantage but he must for the force in his own grasp. The world is looking for the man that has something; the man that has nothing is not wanted. In the new century to come, the Negro will besought for only in proportion as he may be something to give the world. He may be sought; only in proportion as he may ner or a Beethoven, but in any case he must demonstrate the fact that he is able to fill the bill and then his color will be no bar to his advancement but he will hold the future in his own grasp. The world is looking for the man that has something; the man that has nothing is not wanted. Learn Early To master all the essentials of a prevailing philosophy and put it into practical working life he must be a teacher to bring forth the admiration of any teacher. In most sections of the country this is done with case by thousands of children. Take the case of 13 year old Paul Silbert, white, 700 East Presston street, Baltimore. After accidently shooting himself in the hand with a pistol he had secreted, he told hospital authorities that "an unidentified Negro did it." He confessed that he had accused a Negro because he knew it was the easiest way out of it. To make such a statement young Silbert had to acquire certain knowledge about people in this community in his 13 years of life. First, he had to believe that he lived in a city where white grown folk would take for granted easily anything he said about a Negro. He felt a helplessly painful testimony exists for law and order and protection of individuals would not work quite so favorably for Negroes as it would for whites. And even in his child simplicity he had to believe that it did not mean as much to inflict an injustice on a Negro as it did on one of his playmates or a white man. This is an ample total of young Silbert's racial philosophy and standard of justice at the tender age of 13. If young Silbert continues in this line of reasoning, as most white children must with the environment, he will some day land in the clutches of the law or worse and who will be to blame. A community which fosters a warped civic life when there is open and flagrant difference in the manner in which varied groups of its citizens are treated are doing white children as great an injury as it is doing the oppressed. Even Nordic racial efficiency will break down when they are daily cutting at the roots of fair play and instinctive honesty in child life which most communities with their discrimination do. To master all the essentials of a prevailing racial philosophy and put it into practical working shape at the age of 13 is a feat to bring forth the admiration of any teacher, but in most sections of the country this is done with ease by thousands of children. Take the case of year old Paul Silbert, who, 70 years old, preston street in Baltimore, accidently shot himself in the hand with a pistol he had secreted, he told hospital authorities that "an unidentified Negro did it." Later he confessed that he had accused a Negro because he knew it was the easiest way out of it. To make such a statement young Silbert had to acquire certain knowledge about people in this community in his 13 years of life. First, he had to believe that he lived in a city where the grief would take for granted easily anything he said about a Negro. He had to believe that whatever machinery there exists for law and order and protection of individuals would not work quite so favorably for Negroes as it would for whites. And even in his child simplicity he had to believe that it did not mean as much to inflict an injustice on a Negro as it did on one of his playmates or a white child. The sum total of young Silbert's racial philosophy and standard of justice at the tender age of 13. If young Silbert continues in this line of reasoning, as most white children must with the environment, he will some day land in the clutches of the law or worse and who will be to blame? A community which fosters a warped civic life wherein there is open and flagrant difference in the manner in which varied groups of its citizens are treated are doing white children as great an injustice too often to appease down when they are racial efficiency will come down when they are daily cutting at the roots of fair play and instinctive honesty in child life which most communities with their discrimination do. 14th, 15th And 18th It is remarkably strange how strong partisan adherence to any cause, good or bad, may warp the balance of logical thinking. Liberty that mushroom like progeny of modern magazine journalism, has an editorial page in which at times it says some interesting things. In its June 20th issue, in an attempt to flay present-day criticism, and the 18th Amendment, it has the following: It is remarkably strange how strong partisan adherence to any cause, good or bad, may warp the balance of logical thinking. "Liberty that mushroom like progeny of modern democracy is an editorial page in which at times it says some interesting things. In its June 2nd issue, in an attempt to flay present day prohibition and the 18th Amendment, it has the following: "The question asked by some people about these amendments to the Constitution is: If the Fourteenth and Fifteenth can be nullified, why cannot the Eighteenth to vote, why cannot the Eighteenth be nullified by States which do not want to be told what they shall do about drinking? "To this the proponents of enforcing the Eighteenth reply that the Fourteenth and Fifteenth are not nullified in the letter of the law—only in spirit. "This is what the African philosopher, observed that not only does the Constitution follow the flag, but the Supreme Court follows the election returns. "This is what has happened. The South has announced that it will not deal with any party that lets the Negro vote. The North, while permitting the Negro to vote, sees what the South and adopts a policy of "hands off." "And let us say right here we think they are right in doing it. In view of the horrors of Reconstruction, we do not believe the Negro should vote in the South. When he did vote there, he brought civilization almost back to savagery. Few Caucasians in this country seriously believe that the Negro should vote in any State where he is apt to get control. And the Caucasians of this country have lived up to that best. States the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments have been nullified and the Supreme Court has sanctioned such annulment. ..... "We believe the time is coming when States that want it will be allowed latitude in interpreting the Constitution. The South will have no Negro suffrage. The urban East will be wet. And the agrarian Western States which believe it is the duty of the Fortress, Fifteenth, and Eighteenth, will be permitted to enjoy them to the full within their own borders." Despite the existence of much evidence to show that political leaders, parties and governmental agencies have lacked the courage to enforce the 14th and 15th Amendments, it is difficult to believe that the dominant American spirit follows that logic. Language it means that section of the country may make a scrap of paper of any part of the Constitution which does not agree with its own conceived wishes. Such a course might easily degenerate into condition where not only sections of the country defied laws, but groups and even individuals would claim the right to disregard any law that they did not agree with. There may be two sides to the question as to the 18th Amendment. in its attempt to cram its dose of morals down the throats of individuals, but there can be but one safe side the question that as long as it is a law on the statute book of this country, it should be enforced.

As to the 14th and 15th Amendments, it should be as to their wisdom or enforcement if the fundamental American ideals are to endure. And speaking of the reconstruction period when the group voted in the South, it may be tutored in the devious way that they were untutored in the devious way that they misused the same mistakes that any similarly trained group would make, but a careful study of the records will show that even so, they never sunk to the depths of governmental prostitution that so other Americans have done since reconstruction. They never produced a Tweed nor Tammany; They never instituted a machine gun government; They never reconstructions. At most the majority of Negro reconstructioners were true hearted Americans.

Bethle Stewards Explain Borrowing $300 Confer To the Editor: The Stewards of Bethle Stewards Church note of publication relative to the borrowing their Board to completeference claims. It is generally known only what our duty in the matter, the matter were it not for times during the past seven church has gotten some people the many erroneous idea state of affairs at this hignation. It is generally known that the Reverend W. Samson Brooks, Bethle reached a financial and financial level, fortune division of three the refusal of Bishop J. Albert law of the church in the time limit. Into this distinctions of members, the incident there came the Zion present pastor. To the and restoring our Zion he the task of the church of Bethle in the matter of with a divided church that two predecessors with a St. Peter of loyal Bethleites the more reports of his predecessor. As everyone is aware the past two years has Chrysler to maintain our conference approached, we conference last year, we the last whole-heartedly in getting this year, because of certain Under there so devise ways and means and thereby not only support of our pastor, but to spend record our church the standard which Bethle in the conference, was granted in this connection, it is bishop's discharge of his ministerial serve to all. Dr. Stephen a large congregation, had it mission and kept it in the mind perhaps perfectly since that the interests of the whole than the interests of any in the management of the facts in this case reassuring the public that open and above board, with linking anywhere, with of questions and apt ourselves as a Church and the requirements demand. When Did Jack Johnson Qualify to Dispense To the Great M. E. Church? To the Editorial Office. When Did He Qualify? I noted a news item in several publications THE AFRO-AMERICAN, included, where a few days since, Jack Johnson, exchamation of the world, was introduced to the Episcopal Church, now session at Kansas City by Dr. Clarence True Wilson, the renowned Champion of Prohibition and Public Welfare, who hold a high regard for Dr. Wilson and his work, but when he, or any other man, stoops to pick up an exfigher, and broken down sport, and holds him up as an example of clean living, good habits and high morals, I think there are many men who will agree with me when I say, it looks like the planks in the platform are becoming worn. There are many men and noble women, in the church, who will like the desert rose, will grow and blush unseen, and days have been spent in the church. We do not doubt that Mr. Johnson is a Christian gentleman, now, but when he was young, famous, and a man of virtue, he was an Episcopal Church. When did he qualify? leader and example to all Methodism? If men are needed to advertise the cause, why did not the good secretary, put up Dr. C. A. Tindley, or Hannville, Md. LLOYD HENRY PENNY Bethle Stewards Explain Tilt With Trustees in Borrowing $300 Conference Money. To the Stewards of Bethle African Methodist Episcopal Church note with much regret the publication of an article in our two weekly papers relative to the borrowing of certain monies by the church to complete the funds for Conference claims. Having done only what we conceived to be our duty in the matter, we would gladiately ignore that article. But that several times during the past seven years the church has gotten some publicity that has not only been harmful, but which has given the public many erroneous ideas concerning the true state of affairs at this historic citadel of re-ion. It is generally known that during and immediately following the administration of the church Brooks, Bethel reached a high spiritual, musical and financial level. Then came the unfortunate division of three years ago, which was not of Bethel's making, but brought about by the work of the church. The law of the church in the matter of a pastoral time limit. Into this disturbed situation with its withdrawal of members, the breaking of family ties and the incident there came the Reverend Dr. Stephanus our present pastor. To the work of rebuilding and restoring our Zion he set himself with a zeal and energy that were untrying. Faced with the realization of the incident in Bethel in the matter of Conference clips with a divided church that had been set by his two predecessors with a united church. Dr. Stephanus never finished, but rallying his forces in the church were more than matched the reports of his predecessor. Now, as everyone is aware, unemployment during the past two years has been very abnormal. Our church, along with others, has felt it keenly. To maintain our Conference standing, it became necessary a year ago to borrow $600.00. This was the first year of trustees. This year, as the conference approached, found the above one $300.00 short. There was this difference, however. Whereas last year the Trustees joined whole-heartedly in getting the necessary money this year, because of certain agitators, they were unwilling to do so. Under the circumstances there was nothing else we could do as stewards but to develop the new and to get more money and thereby not only support the landable efforts of our pastor, but to keep inviolate the splendid record our church has made. This was done, the loan was made, and, as a consequence the standard which Bethel had set, the highest in the conference, was grandly upheld. In this connection, it is but fair to state that through his own activities, the less necessary in discharge of his ministerial duties and willingness to serve all Dr. Stepteau has kept together a large congregation, had it fulfill much of its mission and kept it in the forefront of Baltic more churches. This, also a few members, while perhaps perfectly sincere, are unable to see how the interests of any individual church are greater than the interests of any individual church. We believe and sincerely hope that this statement of the facts in the case will go far towards reassuring the public that what was done was open and above board, with no sinister purpose hurking anywhere, but with only a sincer desire to meet our just obligations and aquit ourselves as the discipline of our Church and the requirements of our stewardship demand. The Board of Stewards, Bethel A. M. E. Church, Arthur Langford, Secretary. Dr. Grimke Is Ashamed Of The Reported Segregation At The General Assembly Of His (The Presbyterian Church In Tulsa, Oklahoma) To The Editor: I have just noticed in the Tulsa Daily World, the announcement of the meeting of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in and among the items mentioned in the article was among the items mentioned in the bibliography where its sessions are to be held. had been set apart for the colored delegates, numbering about one hundred. When I read it I could hardly believe it. It did not seem possible that the Presbyterian Church could be guilty of such actions so stultify itself; could make such a pitiful exhibition of its weakness and cowardice, and lack of Christion principle as to yield to the demands of race prejudice. Such weakness such cowardice on the part of an individual is bad enough, but when exhibited by a religious body, representing one of the greatest denomination in the country, with 10,000 ministers, nearly 10,000 members, it becomes still more reproachable. If it should turn out that no colored commissioner dares to voice a protest for fear of unpleasant consequences, the greater is the shame of the Assembly for putting them in a position where they feel that they cannot with safety assert their manhood, and conserve their self respect. The sin that the church has never been willing to face squarely and deal with it as it ought to be dealt with, in a straightforward way. Christian spirit, is race prejudice. And it looks as if it never will be. The disposition seems to be lacking. There is no real, earnest desire, so far as I can see, to conform its actions to the ideals and principles of Jesus Christ. The prayer meeting topic last week, as scheduled in the Presbyterian Handbook, was "Prayer for the Church," having reference particularly to the General Assembly. The church certainly needs to be prayed for; and, in nothing more urgent than that it might be delivered from this debasing and unChristian sentiment of RACE PREJUDICE. FRANCIS J. GRIMKE The Afro-American—Baltimore, Md.—South's Biggest and Best Weekly. On Clarence Darrow What did Darrow say in his Washington speech, Sunday, April 2nd? Judging from reactions, he was quite successful in touching some particular spot spots. But what did he say? 10 Points (1) That the Negro was misled during the war by false promotion of improved conditions to follow his sacrifices. (2) That the one race is the human race and all physical differences are incidental. (3) That the American man wants the Negro to him; that a servant or hopeless subordinate: attempts to live and enjoy comfort and luxury as his equal, meet with fierce resentment. (4) That the Negro has helped in educational opportunities; that the best professional schools allow only a few at any given time; the state schools are miserably behind those for whites; private schools have a hard going. (5) "The thing that helps your people the most are the people of outstanding ability and genius you turn out into the world: that Negroes have become outstanding as thirsters in sports and singers. (6) That the race, in the future, must largely fight its own battles. (7) That the people must not depend on the preacher, for he is generally selfish, nor can he give God information about their lives. (8) That some consolation is gotten from the church and it should receive some support. But colored persons should see that the church will do the most good." That the church, through the preacher will take all that is given to it: the N. A. A. C. P. and colleges ought to be involved in the very existence of God itself, as well as heaven. (9) That the hardships of races and groups, the carrying of common prejudices and ungrateful conditions into the ideas of the church, will prove greatly to the benevolence of God itself, as well as heaven. (10) That the Negro is fighting a hard, slow winning fight; the discipline of trouble and handicaps will prove greatly to the benevolence of God if he keeps up courage and fights like a man. Difficulty Darrow sees the difficulty of the Negro and sees it from several angles. His scape is revealed Darrow. Darrow is a friend to the Negro, seeking ot.

The Church There is room for everything that Clarence Darrow says about the church, the preacher and the minister. When you see you dying between the decks on the ocean when you coming to a land of slavery... Who does not question the being and goodness of God in the face of suffering and iniquity? It is one of the perplexing, haunting questions in the heart and mind of the most devout christian who is caring enough to hear and Haiti-splitting the theologians have written books to no end on the problem only to add greater confusion. Darrow is at least frank. There is room for everything that Glorance Darrow says about the church, the preacher and the minister.

Darrow has professors who have written books to no end on the problems and did greater confusion. Darrow is at least frank. White men paint the majority of religious pictures; hence the white personnel of the heavenly hosts, the white child in the bosom of Jesus and the black child kneeling on the ground; the black man in the church, the Negro, with other defenseless groups goes around hell, when he tries to cut out he is screed back; God is read into the whole experience; the keepers of hell are blessed for the sake of the world. The Y. M. C. A. of Maryland holds an Older's Conference in Baltimore; the pastor of fashionable church balks the plan to have loved boys to attend his morning services: the boys are called "White" and "Colored" signs are displayed in the community, religious institutions follow the samples, often playing the part of pioneer in facing such signs. A most efficient ally in the rural war of 1914-18, in sentiment, money and some of the great battles since the war we resulted from efforts of churchmen to have their denominations go down as opposing war, cause of interest is too brutal for churchmen and other religious forces to cross?

Wherever White and black communities, religious institutions follow the examples, often playing the part of pioneer in placing such signs. The church is most efficient ally in the brutal 1818 in sentiment, money and men; some of the great battles since the war have resulted from efforts of churchmen to have their denominations go down as opposing war. What cause or interest is too brutal for churchmen and other religious forces to endorse? News comes from Kansas, stating that Lewis Hartman was defeated in the race for the hoppi in the A. M. E. Church, because he riched money in the United States for Russia in the war, and because he presecured Italian dicals in his own town, Boston, Mass. Preachers As for the Negro preacher, he threatens to see the N. A. A. C.

Who were to be objects of all its blessings if not the people? teachers nor even churches are ends in themness. They are divine and of divine origin only so far as they wipe the tears of the sorrowing man. They are the people of the church that has a monopoly in this field of good deeds it could be so that those doing the best k in one age should be put completely out business the next.

They are divine and of divine origin only in so far as they wipe the tears of the sorrowing and fight the battles of the weak. No institution has a monopoly in this field of good deeds and work in one age should be put completely out of business the next. Great Speech Darrow made a great speech in Washington that rainy April Sunday afternoon. He stressed freedom, education a common origin and of men, self-respect, independence, conquest thru the diversity of man, bestowed the believes in the divinity of man, bestowed human possibilities and the ultimate triumph of right.

The woman has applied to the courts for relief. Certainly there must be or, at least, some human being against such treatment at the hands of another human being. If she were an animal merely any animal, the law would protect her from being given protection, courts or no courts. Thirty-five years old, and 13 babies, and 8 of them died. The dead ones are doubtless the lucky ones. When a woman has rights as a creature of the earth? There was a time when she, by marriage, lost all her rights as a legal person, but even then she must have received the rights of a sentient creature. There was, long ago, a command to "replenish the earth but not the earth," that they do not seem to know that the earth has been amply "replenished," that the particular kind and that it now needs regulation and common sense. No command would come from anywhere (today to create reckless actions, the rights of living creatures, the right not to be crowded, herded and killed the useless duplication of the kind). Theodore Roosevelt, who by the way, had plenty of knowledge and ample care to care for children, said something against what he called "race suicide." Slogans and shibboleths are always dangerous things in the minds of children, and his suicide has served chiefly as a "respectable" excuse for beauty morons, without changing in one lota the con But the awfulest "race suicide" is just what this Connecticut man has done: to rapidly bring into existence children and have more than 61 percent of them to die, while the surviving ones may indeed perish mentally, morally and spiritually, even if they are not in a state of ration or so. That will degrade and destroy the human race quicker than any control of the matter. Only a millionaire can do justice to the death of the BEAVER, not even a millionaire can make 13 children healthy if they are born of the same mother in about 13 years. This style of "race suicide" is a bane of the community and a cruel disregard of the happiness of little children,—to say nothing of the crime against the community that must suffer the consequences for perhaps hundreds of years. A Reasonable Request (The Baltimore Sun) The Virgin Islands, purchased from Denmark by the United States in 1917, have an area of only 123 square miles, and contain some 30,000 people, mostly Negroes, they are, however, a thickly inhabited possession. A certain amount of self-local-government is allowed to the residents of the islands, that of citizens of the United States. But the Governor, a retired naval officer, has virtually unlimited powers over the islands, and the president is "by and with the advice and consent of the Senate" he is, in fact, uncontrolled in his administration. There is no prejudice against the possession of the islands, the quest of the Republican Club of St. Thomas and St. John, the two municipalities in the islands, that the possession should be allowed a Resident's Visa. Both the Philippines and Porto Rico, of course much larger dominions, possess such spokesmen of their own election. They have no vote in Congress, and they have no viewpoint on the floor. And their viewpoint has time and again proved extremely valuable in the consideration of legislation. The value of the position as a safety valve, moreover, is not insconsiderable. The request from the Virgin Islands is made to the Republican National Committee to stance and sensible fellowship, forthcoming if both major parties incorporated in their platform the thesis that these Carribean citizens of the United States should be allowed to vote in the capital which rules their destinies. "THE AFRO CARRIES MORE NEWS THAN ANY OTHER WEEKLY."—Eugene Gordon, 1977 Survey. Before beginning the column we will drop a few thoughts on SUCESS that may prove valuable to the young men who will graduate from college in a few days. Hard work always brings riches if you can get enough people to do it for you. A good appearance goes a long way, keep well pressed and keep your shirts clean, remember the tailors and laundrywomen have got to live as well as you have. Do not be discouraged if you do not have as much as your neighbor at the start; just lay low and you may get a chance to swipe like he did. .The measure of the successful man does not lie in the number of automobiles he buys, but in the number he actually pays for. Don't lose sight of the fact that many an honourable man in the bosom of the man who walks, but honestly never cured burials. It is an ill wind that blows nobody good and a bad breath that has haunted. rollin stone garners no other man wants to be covered with moss anyway. Be punctual. The guy who gets to work ahead of time can always snatch a few moments sleep before you. Do not forget the minute the closing bell rings, put on your hat and coat and be ready to go about five minutes before. In other words, do not be a clock watcher. Do not be afraid of a lowly beginning. Many a bank president has been promoted from janitor and many a bank president's son should be demoted to janitor and many a bank president should be with the janitor, which all goes to show how you can mop up in the bank business. A great deal of money can be made in the summer by opening a hat and a bank president's coat and good husker. All you have to do is sell liquor on the side. Be humble. If a man slaps you on the right cheek turn him the left if he is bigger than you, but if he is smaller than you, off and keep them for souvenirs. There is no beaten path to fame nor fortune. You have to travel like the dickens to make your own map you go, be faint hearted, because it is a long road that has no detours. Be thrifty. Remember nobody makes money while they sleep but a night watchman. Get plenty to eat. Two birds in the hand are worth one million dollars. We will now begin the column with formality and pomp. A 16-year-old youth is being detained at Ellis Island as an undesirable alien because he has owl eyes, not in the night time, but not in the day. This is said to be an objectionable disease, but if night clubs continue to be popular the next generation will develop this ailment and be perfectly normal. We need a despondent owl eyes would have been to lovers who did their courting in the dark. They might not have gotten such bad breaks if they could have seen what they were getting. Owl eyes would reduce the number of incidents at railroad crossings and be a wonderful help to auto drivers when their lights went out. They could read the signs along the road without striking a match. Owl eyes would increase the efficiency of the burger profession 100 percent as the burger technician use the of the flashlight light. Owl eyes in the family would help bear witness to the dangers Students could do their studying without burning the midnight oil and through dark problems with ease. By RALPH MATTHEWS Owl eyes would not be needed by the man, because everybody goes to bed before dark. There is no pleasure in the dark, because most of them are olds.

Poem This Week Poem This Week ADVICE BEFORE ROUGING By Margery Swett Mansfield Women look well at lips before they rouge them. Rouge lays any story bare That may be hiding there, quiet and proud like lips. Rouge makes it cry aloud. Oh. You've seen such desolate despair Cut them the dark and shock the still night afield. From caramel lips! No friendly shadows hide Gletschers of scarlet, drooping and wide. Some mouths are bitter, twisted jealousies, Some fish like cool. The syrup of their mental lecheries. Starved lips there are, and lips that sucked distress And even smiling and cool Soft lips have the selfish wildness. Mouths are the records of the changing They stand when trowns have been forbidien- d, and quick tears; den, and quick tears; But she give a pencil, give a pencil to a foot. But she give a pencil to what she tell them. Women should look well at lips before they rouge them. Women should look well! DAY BY DAY What Is Back Stage In Your Life? Standing in the wings of one of the theatres recently this writer saw a brave actress crouple a telegram of bad news from home and brush away a news just a few seconds before she skipped lightly with a banning smile to dispense amusement and laughter to a light hearted audience. With her heart bleeding she smiled and smiled as encore brot her back before the light and then went to her little dressing room and buried her face in a flood of tears. To a large extent most human beings are actors and actresses and back stage in most lives we often have to suppress our real feelings and give the world a front. What a piteable world this would be if everyone could took through the veil of expression in those we know and see what thoughts, what memories, what sorrows and what mistakes, what roses and most of us make of our faces. That is why child life is so interesting to grownups and it is why we unisophisticated children whose gleaming expression of face and words are true pictures of their inward souls and thoughts. Many people in this world are those who can look back stage in their own lives without a shudder. WHAT IS BACK STAGE IN YOUR LIFE? Up In Pledges Baltimore educational and welfare institutions have more than 100,000 students up in pledges and subscriptions. If all the money "subscribed" to Morgan College, for instance, was paid in, this city could boast an annual awarded institutions in the country. A downtown credit association told this writer this week that a mart's credit could be based much on the money he paid his volunteer subscriptions than on how he paid collateral loans. Almost any bank would pay him money or woman who can show that they pay their voluntary obligations. While the high powered, go-getter banks are poised for good movements are often productive of encouraging pledge reports, they also have a tendency to make a large number of obligations dodger. There are business and professional men and women who in any ordinary business insacrifice their money, good as their bond, but who consider as less than scraps of papers cards to which they have affixed their names in pledge to donate mo- THERE ARE MANY REASONS THEY WILL BE USED SHOULD REGARD VOLUNTARY PLEDGES WITH MORE CONCERN AND SACREDREES THAN TIONS, FOR IN THE KEEPING OF THE S VOLUNTARY OBLIGATIONS THEIR REAL CHARACTERS MORE FULLY REALED. On The Brakes? J. L. Yancy, brilliant young Willberforce University graduate, caught fire during the defunct Meniphis Solvent and Fraternal Bank is quoted as explaining the blasting of his and others' associates in the reflection, "they could not put on the brakes." Human beings, like automobiles, cursing along like highways and then know how to steer, how to slow up and how to put on the brakes often to avert crashes. The disaster in that financial disaster were among this country's most hopeful and promising youth five years ago. Today, a bile crashed into a post, they make a pitable spectacle before a storm of justice. They DO NOT PUT ON THE BRAKES IN TIME. Down in the souls of every man past 20 are memories of narrowly averted disasters. Like automobile breath escapes. Financial curves, speeding women, the just one high-ball drink temptation, the fatal one winning bet on a race horse. There are few men who have not at some time found themselves in a situation where they have to disaster. HAD THEY NOT PUT ON THE BRAKES IN TIME. Just one wild financial ride said the Memphis bank official and the fast-track attorney. Like the automobileist, young men and women should now and then test out their brakes. A wise Benedict College teacher once had his class practice if offended inhibit by refraining from doing each morning the first thing that came in their minds to do. Tell your someones that you some trivial man or MEAN NO see that your brakes on life actions are working. We are all erring human beings in this world and would go on to some disaster if we did not know when and how to put on brakes. What Kind Of Pastor Is This? Baltimore Baptists who were shocked recently at the exposure of ministers writing letters to prosessionals they appealed to their "racial superiority" to get dollars, have another shock coming. A reader of this column writes: "much of the clergy, a pastor who charges a member in a church straits $10 to help her get a loan of a hundred by simply endorsing her note with three others? A minister minister did that to me and if they were in an organization willing to take the matter up, I will gladly give name. In the animal world certain types are typified in the sneaking of treacherous hyenas, the treacherous hyenas, the bloody sucking leech; but we can think of no proper designation for the man clothed in the raiment of black and Lowly Nazarene who rightfully came to him for help.

BENDER AFRICAN PROVERB THIS WEEK Big elephants frequently have small tusks. Segregation Within BY PALESTINE WELLS A Forum letter signed a Brown Girl', brought out a point that mess us of either overlook or avoid, namely, the question of segregation made themselves. Not that I am upholding themselves. Not that I am upholding themselves in segregating colored people, but does seem to me that since we are more or less powerless in removing Negroes and whites we might focus on tention upon eradicating segregation as practiced among Negroes themself, and parable about removing the beam that is in their own eye. It would be nice if we concentrate on that. Whether we like it or not the fairness of the rule separates themselves from their pigmented brethren. This of course does not apply to every fair Negro, but nevertheless exceptions only prove the rule separately. Not so with or less uneducated classes than little noticeable color distinction. Blacks, browns, yellows and pinks, naturally. Not so with those who look upon themselves as the intelligence. Upper Classes Did you ever notice a gathering of the upper classes (my I hate to think) folks in terms of social status? I fell in love with the group is decidedly within the same from 'pink' to those beautiful light brown. Blacks and dark brown are at a premium. In some few instances, they probably due to a accident but in many cases it is an intentional omission. A Negro man does not have to concern himself greatly as to the color of his skin. With a woman of any race, you are probably there are any women who are proud of their black faces? Could we have a show of hands on this? Ah! As I thought, there are none. Every colored woman wants to be as light as possible, and there does lie offer for a little black girl? Few Millionaires There are few millionaires for colored girls to angle for, but there are many others, in such works as educated men can find financially desirable jobs. Are what the girls go after? Not in the habit of marrying dark women. Here and there one does not in the habit of marrying dark women. Here and there one does not know his wife are continually asking. How did he ever come to marry her? I challenge you to pick a girl of color and rank of those who would consider it have made good. Look at their wives and I'm willing to bet that the fair ones will far outrange the darker ones. Horror of Color The other day I heard an intelligent young woman remark, "I don't know what to do. I think they are hideous. I can even see how they would appear good looking, even to themselves." Some would look just as ugly to them. "Oh, I don't see how we could," she replied, almost in indignation horror. That same young woman would be found in many geographies under the caption "The Races of Mankind." Perhaps the segregation within the Negro community problems the Negro has to thrash out. For its origin one has to go far back to those days when we first accepted the white man as the savior. We have hundred and a hundred years in bondage we forget the traditions of our forefathers, we forget what signified beauty to us when we roamed, free and wild in the tropical In those dark years we came to accent the white man's stance towards us, to aspire to beyond the bonds that held us belonged to white people. Even God was white. To be white typified the heights of the white angels, to the whites had all things. We raised God in songs which told of being washed white as snow. We were to be white angels. In heaven we would be free white. Narrows Field Today our color is a badge which keeps us in poorly paid jobs, narrows our economic field, hurts our buying power, would like to buy, living where we would like to live, soaring where we would like to go. To possess a fair skin tone, we would like to speak. Though it is not always possible to escape entirely we may move about in a larger sphere. For instance, we can buy a car, but we can sit where we care to sit in the theatre; we can see a movie as soon as it is released in our city instead of waiting for a picture major on the avenue. Sometimes to be fair means setting a job that we could not possibly not were known that we are colored. In some wanting to be fair, good reasons for ```markdown ``` However, when we think of our own social groups, it seems so utterly inconsistent for those more religious to praise the brown girl in poetry, in song, to talk about the splendid form grandeur of Africa in poetry, to cut all that isn't fair. Some of the very folks that howled the loudest about the glory of color and all that was wrong, her or he seen with one. White men are fools in many ways, but they are not such great fools that they do not see that we do very thing for which they are well and well and but don't think you one is better than the little black girl you pass the other day. If you're black don't feel that the Lord foretold about you. Try to explain that the Lord is encouraging the fair dames. Be proud of your color as they are of theirs. If you're a Little Brown Girl with big brown eyes, cut fretting and fair dames who who want you into the give affairs just as swell if you must forget about color and try to remember that probably by the time your great-great grandmother will be brown and those who are so unfortunate as to be fair will be dying themselves brown Consistent Advertising Brings Results Rome Was Not Built In a Day! Success Comes Not In a Moment! RESULTS in advertising come only from well-planned, well-written, welldisplayed and CONSISTENT ADVERTISING. One does not read a book today and expect to get a degree tomorrow. Nor do we hope to sow to-day and gather next week. Nor yet can we invest a dollar to-day and gain forty in a fortnight. We write here the experience told us by one of our advertisers, Marse's Garbage, similarly known to everyone as "Marse" tells us recently a man came into his office from Chicago, whose home was formerly in Baltimore. He had been getting THE APRO regularly during his absence from home and he been a successor of the advertising investment property in Marse's ad. Having made a little money in Chicago, this client had decided to come to Baltimore and invest in some property. He came straight from the station to Marse and the transaction amounted to some $10,000. But, he had been reading Marse's ad for nearly THREE YEARS before he made up his mind to invest his money in his own home town. Marse's experience has been the experience of hundreds of other successful business men in Baltimore. Many of our advertisers have kept their ads with us for 5, 10 and 15 years, almost continuously.

A. E Lichtman, white of Washington, operator of a chain of race theatres, announced Wednesday that he would give up control of the Royal here, following the Sunday midnight show. With no plans yet completed for another operating firm, the playhouse which is the largest in the city playing vaudeville and pictures, will probably be closed. The house is owned is owned by Dr. J. Elmer Porter, white of Pottsown, Pa., and it is believed that efforts are being made to have him keep the theatre open under his o a management. House Employs 22 Twenty-two regularly employed persons will be affected by the house change. At their head is Walter A. Pinchback, manager, who has held his post for eight months. Plans are being made to include him in the staff of the Lightman houses in Washington, the chain head said. The personnel includes a cashier, a clerk, four, two motion picture operators, eight musicians, one doorman, three ushers, a janitor and billboard. Held Control One Year The Royal was added to the Lichtman chain June 6, 1927. The lease was taken from the firm of the late George W. Bermuthm, white. It was then managed by Mark Gray, white. Operating on a non-union basis, the orchestra under direction of Isaiah N. Thompson was displaced by a group of musicians under Richard Day, former Baltimore. Chas. L. Harris was retained for a few months as assistant manager. For a month of operation Bass G. Bass was appointed director of the chain of houses displacing Louis Aarsky, white. Operating Costs Too High In his statement to the AFRO-AMERICAN, M. Lightman said: "So far as I am concerned the house will be closed next week. We have lost money on it all the while. "Operating expenses average $3,500 weekly and we have seldom taken in that amount. I never received a payment for the work. I want to thank the Baltimore public for patronage it has given. We can make no prediction about the staff except that an effort is being made to include Mr. Pinchback in our organization in Washington."

Supported by a large chorus that sang the entire score the principals acted their parts in tableau. John King was seen as Rip, and Cornelia Lake as his hempecking wife. Cecilia Franklin and John Mann were co-casters in tableau. The three girls gave ample opportunity for the chorus to exhibit an advanced type of part singing. John W. Rich, Jr. directed the athletic drill, while a playlet "Everyboy" was given under the supervision of Miss Vernice Downing. Rhythmic dances by advanced pupils closed the lengthy offering.

Page Eight RECORDS SHATTERED BY 'PORGY' ON TOUR New York Welcomes Back Folk Drama Following Six Week's Absence CRITIC PRAISES ACTORS Declares Race Best Acts Its Characters Leaving a trail of broken records broken during its tour of six weeks and with the plaudits of the press resounding about its players, "Porgy", the Theatre Guild's production, returned Monday to the Republic Theatre for a summer run. the drama of sorid and primitive Catfish Row in Charleston, S. C., with its cast including only two actors, the phantom vehicle for Frank Wilson, former postal service worker, and for others of the cast whose occupations have varied between drama and music. Leaving the Garrick Theatre, Philadelphia, the company and the play were paid tribute by Herman L. Dice, of the New York Philharmonic, the critic saw in the piece the arrival of the race in drama. He says of the new thespians: "The New York is taking an important place in the theatre. Inherent talent an mimicry is having encouragement and the black man or woman who is mimicry is taking an important place as a singer, as instrumentalist, as actor. In Abraham's Bosom gave opportunity to discover the fact of the colored man's ability to portray roles which conceals art. Now Porgy is here — and a new group of players has shown a similar acting genius. "And, after all, is not the black man the most competent to depict Negro characters that are true to type? Others may sing those weird harmonies of the Spinners or a man who songs them best. They are a part of the Negro — an inheritance associated with his African origin and his deep superstitions. There is nothing exotic; there is no inferior as he voices the exotic melodies." In *Porgy* the entire company practically sings those 'olk tunes and rises to ecstacy that approaches frenzy. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. Singer们 pour forth the tunes that fill each heart and that are a solace to every person who is swayed by rhythmic flow. That very rhythm permeates the Negro in exaltation upon him when he lends himself to the fervidness of a folk drama. He steeps himself in the part and seems to live in the rhythm and makes him the emotional person he becomes an interpreter. Players Well Cast "To go into detail of the performance would not really give an adequate motion of the quality of the presentation. Its staging and the coordination of each element in things as an audience, who is Porgy, but not at all a repugnant because of that, does not arouse. Of course, in his occupation is street beggar, he must touch the hearts of passersby. He makes it a man among men, that is seen in the fact that he wins Bess to himself, if only temporarily. Each important player in the cast is well known to the audience, to that ensemble effectiveness which is the great merit of this production."

AUSTIN, WACO, TEMPLE, FORT WORTH, DALLAS, SHERMAN, TEXAS. - What a mathew. "nother" had struck Austin the day of my Friday concert, lowering the thermometer to such an extent that there was very little audience to enquire about. "An inner" organized by the Roland Haves Mine, such an organization connected with Samuel Huston College. But on Sunday afternoon a mixed audience completely filled the school auditorium. Enough after encore being requested, I was invited to perform at the Deaf, Dumb, and Blind Institute for Negroes. There I found another reveler. "By such surprise that at first I could believe it was all a dream, for here was a group of comparatively new and modernly equipped buildings comprising an institution upon which its expending nearly a quarter million dollars this year to maintain. There were beautifully appointed apartments for the superintendent's faculty, and the faculty teaching of the industries, and we found even a fine arts department, and we found a fine arts department of the concert, which was above in the auditorium consisting of choruses by the student body and by a few talented student singers. Bledsoe's Home Waco, noted chiefly as the birthplace of the talented baritone, Julius Bledsoe, has never been numerically responsive to concerts according to the music industry. But he knows how to explain this except to lay the standard of musical appreciation at the door of the educational institutions heading which list would. He has been a concert concerto, Paul Quinn has always been noted for singers; that is, I mean, voices. After a number of vain attempts to interest a few representative Waco choirs in concert, an educator who responded to my question notice gathered together a modest audience that I might deliver my musical message. The Musician never knows what the audience will deliver, and I frankly expected very little activity at Temple, Texas, for one would hardly look to little more than a village in comparison with a town the size of Waco for much of anything. It wasn't all of this opinion changed, though, through the organization of a pretty little concert by a church woman's club celebrating the anniversary of the pastor, Boone, whose presence is reflected throughout the community. From Temple we moved on to North Texas where real music app stores still and has been, as I recall for some years back. Fort Worth under the management of the high school music department has a splendid audience. But a good audience is only one item of giving to an artist adequate financial support to continue on his journey. The item is the size of the admission fee. Low Fees The admission fees of North Texas are so low economically low that we are really mockery when we look at the material prosperity of that section which we govern. We are not amenable. In this respect there is ample need for progress. There is, however, one thing in which the Fort Worth WI School cooperated beautifully with me. Promoters are your key to keeping an artist before the student body the morning after the concert for a free concert. They cannot see that such a procedure most emphatically affects the financial condition of the student body. There were vociferous demands for a performance from me, but it all ended up with my telling them where they should have been given. We will more and more follow this rule and reserve their energy for the evening performances. If performance the artist must come before a student body the next morning, a verbal one hit song, and play, never! And then came Dallas, the largest city in Texas. Could musical precision possibly be lower for large a place? They say the Y. M. C. A. drive was the reason. Well they will say pretty much anything that people at large do not love good music. I can say, however that my visit to Dallas was repaid when I saw the beautiful modern school presided over by Mr. Rhodes. Finally, I passed on to Sherman where I had the smallest audience of the four. Was it the fault of the humble C. M. E. preacher who tried at the last moment to save the day? No. it was the fault of a dilly-dallyer who waited at the last moment to notify me that he could not present me.

THINGS THEATRICAL BY OBIE McCULLUM Misery Loves Company THE YIDDISH THEATRE, if one person's theatrical trade journal, is having a financial crisis. Taking what is supposed to be the deductions of persons on the paper, the blank conversion, the paper lays the blame on conversion of metropolitan Jews to the Broadway type of entertainment, and the weak attempts of Yiddish man-agers to mitigate the Broadway vogue. Going more deeply into the question. It says: "The Yiddish stage reached its highest artificially and financially—a decade ago, when the themes of its vehicles were restricted to aspects of Jewish life that were untouched by the writers for the legitimate film." The Yiddish stage began courting its ruin when its writers emerged with scripts that were at best poor burlesques of the less mertable pieces of the theater. A Yiddish play performs a necessary function when its characters portray the feelings, ideals and fobiles of every-day Jewry." Persons who are interested in the theater will find a real face theatre will find cause for thought in this analysis of the failure of the theatre of the richest racial group in America. There are those who decry the failure of the theater, insist that our drama should depict only the highest type of Negro life. Whether their contentions could be followed out and that successfully, is natural. Our art has its own contributions to art and things aesthetic have not been in portraying objects and characters conceived by the whites. Rather they have come from the blacks, who have been the gift of spirituals and jazz; in drama, it has been the sordid and almost wholly tragic, in the lighter type of entertainment, it has been the fun poked at by the prejudice of the whites in the South. Perhaps, after we have developed the possibility of the less sophisticated arts, we shall serve into what we call the blacks, and that with a profit on the ledger. Revelations Leaving out of consideration the joyous anticipation of Mary and Willow's three month vacation from studies, possibly of most interest to child life at this season, are the possibilities of "Mary Balls," spring festivals and "what-have-you?" one night blossoms for the summer. I reveal that: Mother doesnt mind doing without the summer coat she planned to get, and dad will for it, until in order to purchase the doodads necessary for the kids, mothers voice is a little herself, but the isn't afraid to sing by herself. Mrs. John Upstreet just paid 40 cents a yard for her caribble and had a dressmaker execute the costumes for her brat because the family in Dudd alley couldn't afford to do the satin. That the juvenile toe舞er probably danced on her heels most of the time, but there were plenty friends of the family to applaud her; and maybe shell be a great star on the staircase. That the young dresser dressed as a little yellow and gold butterfly lost his wings and forgot to turn when the other kids did, but he got a big reception. Late spring, a great time for the young hopefuls. Metropolitan Whether it is the pictures that Manager Taylor is offering or the pictures by Enskine Tate and his Vendome Syncapitors and Miss Lillian Reed, at the console, that it is worth my heart, we know that the S. R. O. sign works overtime. Even Micheaux's joke, "Thirty years too long here last week, drew a wonderful crowd. When I asked a friend what he thought of the picture, he answered, "It is thirty years too long."

Matthews, who spent several years there while serving in the 25th Infantry. The natives, who are by nature an indolent lot, have been forced from their lands by the energetic celestials, while the whites and Japanese have almost completely crowded them out of the business marts. These conditions force the native Hawaiians, as a class, in the lowest strata of economic and political affairs. Many find employment with the more thrifty races, who have by their progressiveness, practically deposed the original owners of the territory. The natives are given to dabbling in petty politics, drinking rum and exerting themselves as little as possible.

He remained in the Islands until 1918 after the United States entered the World War. Among the strange customs of the island, Matthews recalls the ceremony of the natives carrying fruit and other products up to the crater of Volcanic Mt.

It was organized by an act of Congress on March 3, 1869, and was formed as a regiment of the 30th and 40th Regiments, which were among the first colored units formed in America. "The theory advanced in the late war that white officers were needed for colored companies is utterly without foundation." Matthews contends. "The race officers in the regular Army received the highest respect from their men and were as efficient as the whites." After his discharge from the Infantry. Matthews joined the 10th. Calvary, with which he served for sometime. Kings Mountain 'Y Conference June 1 KINGS MOUNTAIN, N.

That's just what happened, and what's more Yokelly held his opponents in check at all times, striking out six and allowing eight extra bases hit. But for an error by Dixon, the Black Sox ace would have added another shutout to his string of victories, and the condition of the rain-soaked field support gave him stellar support. Lindsey At Short Landsey was in there at the old short field post and did a nice job of fielding, although he was not a Westporters banged out a total of 12 binges and drove Tiant to the showers in the fourth taming after they had garnered a victory. The teams, frames, Moria and Launon, who took turns at the hurting task later, were more effective and allowed only one run to cross the pan in the remaining The Mighty Second The locals broke into the scoring column in this wise in the second inning. Washington opened by drawing a pass. Dixon singled, advancing Washington to Washington to double, driving in Washington to Clarke singled, a long drive, scoring Dixon and Taylor. Lindsey popped to Ramirez who made a double play, Clarke made a double sack, making out. Then came Yokely, and this boy sent the apple soaring over leftfield fence. Jackson went to first on Banza's error and score, when Holloway to terrific three-ply blow. Wilson whipped out a neat Texas leaguer, bringing in Holloway. The inning ended when Holloway hit to Banza who called him out. Wilson caught again until the seventh when the Havana clan pushed across their only tally. Teran trotted across the rubber when Ramirez singled between first and missed. The excellent chances to score in the fourth and fifth innings. Lose Scoring Chance In the fourth, Ferrer doubled and when Caldosa hit to rightfield tried to score, but Dixon threw him out at the plate, one of the prettiest and longest throws seen on the field. He threw with two men on base, and only one out. Yokely set down and made Teran pop to Jackson and Caldosa fly out to Dix.

POMPEZ-KEENAN LATEST MOGULS TO QUIT LEAGUE Lincoln Giants And Cuban Stars Withdrawn At Heated Meeting Friday THREE CLUBS LEFT; SAY LEAGUE WILL CONTINUE Havana Red Sox Seek Franchise—Magnates To Enforce "Waiver Ruling" PHILADELPHIA—Two, possibly three, new clubs will be admitted to the Eastern League when the organization meets in Atlantic City late this week. Alexandro Pompez of the Cubans sent in his resignation to that body when it met here on Friday. Three Clubs Seek Franchise Altho J Keenan, owner of the Lincoln Giant's quickly followed in the footsteps of Strong, Bolden and Pompez, the league is still extant. Applications for three new charters orders are investigated and the possibilities are reported favorably. Player War Looms Aroused at last by the constant sniping, the league will make immediate reprisals. Since its constitution says that the players of all teams will be required to show the property of the league, the various magnates will endeavor to sign men they want. Another, — and drastic — step will be taken. It will be reported that one of the Cuban athletes are safe from the coming attack. It is no secret that one of the clubs seeking admission is a Cuban team, the Havana Red Sox. The Sox have been there since the insh in a side of Sequoia Park for some time and is reported that several of his stars are ready to follow the example of Martin Dihigo and jump the observation. With most of the high grade players in the league, bans and the Havana Reds, Powers will be in a bad hole. Bees Need Men The Bacharach Giants with a fine ballard all ready for the opening games with the Black Ops on Ponies and several luminaries sporting independent uniforms will shortly shift to the habiliments of the Bees. Sports lovers demand league base for the result of the game is at stake. The want thrills which come with duck for batting and fielding leadership and the inevitable comparisons which such duck are proved by the large crowds fans which everyday stay away from the independent ball parks.

That razzberries are more plentiful, or base-gardeners, and we don't think they are more plentiful. In course there are the razzes (e.g., for razberries) that grow at prize fights, possibly second in importance to those at a baseball game but not so bitter. Baseball players, that is those who are in the field, are in relatively stable positions. The catcher is not going from home plate, neither are they in the field, nor going to stray far from their respective posts. They consequently are certainly in a POSITION to receive the sportive fruit. They cannot escape the gifts that fans would give them in the form of the aforementioned fruit.

We looked at them play at Car beat, the boys raged at this wholesome, and the men, who had a ring adjoining them, but how they and vigor, all stood out in their play that was worth seeing. Blip! goes the ball and a girl must be rained. A cynic, standing by said so proficient in hitting their opponents could tell where the ball would land. It was a moment when he was wrong, in this case, that he was worth enthusiasm. On the other hand, it has been so interested in the game, playing it, and some of the players, but at present it is not. Splendid performances of those girls, celled. Cherches les femmes. BREAKING RECORDS seems to be in college and scholastic circles, he type cooled in the galleys than another type of the West and Midwest has gone for portion of these records, and from more young Lochinvar to come. For the first time, the Pancake House was for the 175-yard dash, 16.8 seconds, but present it is improbable that the man was in the way. Bob Metcalfe set a new record in the 21-1-6 seconds, and the Central High Columbus, O., broke a record of 18 y. Now comes the news of Herbert M. team, who cracked the quarter mile record breaking time of 482 seconds, and for 190 seconds he was the first record in the capita Moxley perform and visualized such a Holder of the state record in the 460, stride and gets the jump on his rival's brakes. All of these records breaking per will notice, during inter-racial compe marks that you will find race athletes racers, and the record is not for the first time that is not afforded in intra-racial compe. Not confined by narrow prejudices, and in the north as well, have a stun, beneficial, and there records are made the first record in the world, but the wool from their eyes and scru before our athletes get an even break turn a deaf ear to any regularity of in.

He had him out of a nice back yard in which h upset to many fans, Jack's loss, but Courtney was the better, the pat, the man, and the man who had. THE GIRLS WIN at dodge ball, and there's no getting away from that. We looked at them play at Carroll Park, the other day, and they beat the boys ragged at this wholesome sport. They only played in a ring adjoining them, but how they did play, Snap, speed, accuracy, and vigor, all stood out in their play and they played with an abandon that was worth seeing. Blipp goes the ball, and a girl must leave the ring. Bing! and another machine. It was really as if we were watching a Cynic, standing by said, that the reason the girls were so proficient in hitting their opponents with the ball was that one never could tell where the ball would land, meaning of course the traditional saw about a woman's inability to throw where she looks. But the cynic was wrong, because Accuracy here meant much practice insured by mutualism. On the other hand, it has been said that the boys are not so much interested in the game, playing it with only a half interest, and there's something to that. But no amount of explanations can take away the excitement of the innocent girls. They played the game and excelled. Chercheza les femmes. Away out on the Pacific coast Wesley Foster hung up a new record for the 175-yard dash, 16.8 seconds, but because no A. A. U. official was present it is improbable that he would record the 220-yard dash at Champaign, 21-1-5 seconds, and the Central High School mile relay team, out in Columbus, O., broke a record of 18 years standing. Now comes the news of Herbert Moxley, a member of the Central team, who cracked the quarter mile mark, by running the 440 in the record, times of 482.2 seconds, shattering a mark that had stood for 18 years. In our student days in the capital of the Buckeye State, we saw Moxley perform and visualized such a performance as he has just made Holder of the state record in the 440 Moxley runs, a well-timed mark for his team. Holder runs. He is a brainy runner as well, using his noodle as well as his legs. All of these records breaking performances have been made, you will notice, during inter-acial competition, in fact any prominent marks on your shoes. You will notice that there is a stimulation in this type of competition that is not afforded in intra-acial contests. Not confined by narrow prejudices, runners in the western regions, and in the north as well, have a stimulus to competition that is highly beneficial, and there are many dominant groups (numbers, we mean) have yet to pull the wool from their eyes and scrape the moss from their shells. before our athletes get an even break. Even the so-called leaders turn a deaf ear to any regularity of inter-acial athletes. We know what we have potentials for, and Metcalfees have in our midst. Someday, they'll get a chance at fair play. COMES THE NEWS to my desk of the temporary downfall of two flastic idols, the week past. "Gentleman Jack McVey took a pounding from George Courtney, write in New York, and Sidney Loyza, in Detroit, although I understand, there are some who witnessed the fight who told me that Jesse James' methods were used. Flowers' loss will not seriously hamper him but McVey's will shunt flowers not seriously hamper them could have played. It was an upset to many fans, Jack's loss, but it was well demonstrated that Courtney was the better of the pair. But you just watch flowers when he launches into Sid Terris. Boy, he's got a dish fit for any king. Our only worry is how we're going to get see it.

N. C. (By C. "Randy" Taylor) — When we look over the baseball season that is playing to an end in North Carolina where large up some self-evident facts which have the need of correction. The laxity which some colleges show brings out more and more, the need of reform within the ranks of the colleges that make up the N. C. I. A. A. Livingstone One college in particular has a pitcher on its baseball team who pitches for the Baltimore Black Sox, a professional team in Baltimore. This pitcher leaves his college and journeys to this northern city to play in the college ball and plays ball for his college, mind you he is playing professional ball and is same time he is playing collegiate ball and plays the current baseball game season. The solution of this problem lies in the hands of the officials of the N.C.I.A.A. Professionalism should be discouraged within collegiate ranks. The officials in the association longer keep this policy of Laissez-Faire in association will maintain its integrity with other collegial associations. I am not sure that the association has any rules preventing such actions of its athletes. I can only say that if there exists such regulations, they will be enforced then. When we look at the rules made by the Big Ten Conference, the Southern Conference, The New England I. A. A. and the past Big Three, we see a determined effort to prevent any such action on the the runners conference. The New the pass big the mid effort on the Athlete has the lose sight athletes.

RUNNERS FINISH BUNION DERBY RUN GRANVILLE AND GARDNER AMONG PRIZE WINNERS Granville, Third, Cops $5, 000 Reward; Gardner, Eighth, Gets, $1,000 SAMMY ROBINSON AND TOBY JOSEPHS FINISH Gardner's Poor Advisors Hinder Him; Led 31 Of The 85 Laps NEW YORK. (By D. A. Murphy)—Six Afra-Americans started in C. C. Pyles now famous "Bunion Derby" from Los Angeles, California, back in March, and after running and walking some 3485 miles or more four of them finished with a twenty mile sprint around Madison Square Garden here Saturday night. One was struck by an automobile and forced out of the running while being up after making several laps. Granville Third Philip Granville, huge six-foot West Indian from Canada, and walking champion of Canada, shuffled two feet as he finished third about 27 hours elapsed time behind the leader, a gary white boy from Oklahoma. "Sheik" Gardner Edward Gardiner, a graceful figure in ebony, lingered on the Garden with the ease and tenacity of a waker his prey, and with the aid of eight cross trained. Gardiner's elapsed time was about 46 hours more than Granville's and 73 more than the leader's. **Smiling** *Sammy* Then, per the running, but most of the time walking, came Sammy Robinson, a professional boxer of Atlantic City, and also a foxer in San Diego, the list of those fifty finished but he gamely continued around the Garden for the 200 and finished fresh. **Who's The Youth?** We became aware of young weathers leisurely around the track, now walking, now running, are stopping for a drink of pop or a cock of cream. Although difficult to finish, we brush from the white ones, so town and tan had they become in their cross country trek, we got it in our head that he must be colored and looking closer at his numbered program, had our curiosity confirmed. "Toby" *Joepephus*. He was a young man, he jumped, 16, the rangest of all of the 250 runners who started, "Toby," as he was jailed, and then a father who was paralyzed from the wrist down, and a thirteen parod boy who drove a car down the street and food, the greatest part of the encouragement he received on his long grind. Real Spectacle Search: every nationality on the side of the earth was out there running for money, fame, honor and glory. There was "Wildfire" Thompson of Arkansas, who ran for two months, two months, ran backwards for several laps around the track; there was Harry Gunn, son of a millionaire, sporting uniforms of uniforms every day, the way, and who was crowned walking champion of the world, having walked the pretend distance in the shortest time. Garden recorders we collected the sitting cool and collected on the running board of a car with a bath robe around him and from him we found that he had a bath robe around his lap and laps. 34 out of 85. That he had broken the world's record for 50 miles by nine minutes, making the distance in 7 hours. 43 minutes. Making the distance in 6 seconds he had also lowered another world mark for 50 miles negotiating the distance in 6 hours. 6 miles and 0 seconds. He split the distance in 6 to 10th place and that he pulled back up to eighth and held 2 throughout the remainder of the race. Granville Talks Little Sitting up in the front on Pyle's bus we sped Granville, and through the window of the bus he advised us that he had not had a sick day duri- STA-BAC HAIRDRESSING JOHN B.

While he was absent in the race he had been son born to him. Slim-spinls had been son but did not keep him from going. Further conversation was impossible with Granville, who appears to be very high strung and averse to be very loud. He reported: 'Howard Man Tells Ole' at the shop hospital of Pyle's caravan we spied a young man who most obligingly gave us the "low down" on the race. He was Louis Stillwell, a student at Howard, who was a student at Howard at home when the negotiations for the race opened. He joined the caravan as an official stenographer and demoted because of race prejudice and demoted because of race prejudice and white men up in the big bus, and finally joined the Hebrew proprietor of the shoe hospital as an escort. He told us he could Have Won the runners, who, by their snow storms, sand storms, rain and hawk, how the colored boys were were frightened into rear places in the race during their 6 day sopron in that cracker state. How they slept worms, gymnastics, city halls, sat down, how Gardner might easily have won the race had he better been advised in the beginning, burning himself out banded his strength for the later part of the race. How the boys climbed 4,000 feet in 4 miles out in Arizona. Just then "Toby" came off the track, but he was quickly escorted off by a large and well-dressed Aframerican who we found to be none other than Bajangles Robinson, and who invited us up '': his apartment the boy and visit him. The great talk of the day covered themselves with glory. They may get their money — let us pray that they will. PHIL EDWARDS TRACK CAPTAIN AT N. Y. U. BROTHER ATHLETE TOO By WM. PICKENS NEW YORK. — For the first time in history there is a Negro as track captain in a New York University. He is Philip Edwards. "Phill and 'King', two black boys of New York City, whose native home is British Guiana, are leaders in athletics and college activities. Philip is a great athlete. His repulsion has easily lagged in the natchments. He not only the track champion of New York University, but holds the American 600 yards and 1,000 yards. In being the most successful record, a record for recognition of the "minority races", — for neither Jew nor Negro has ever before been so honored in New York University. "Minority" man gets such honor, believe us, he earns it. Both of those athletic brothers have the University "letter" now on the chest. He is the only man known among the boys as "King Edwards", recently won third place in the finals of the 320 yard dash in the Mid-Atlantic Track Meet. He is the "heads", but only third in "finals". Talent Hereditary We looked up the family of "Phillip and "King" and found that the whole family was from the brown. We will be former believers in "eugenics" hereafter. Their father, Fritz B. Edwards, who lives now on the island of Chippewa, his Chief Manifeste's Clerk" in British Guiana, and their two sisters are real estate brokers in Harlem. Although the boys are bright, but not Ms. Lucille Edwards is one of the real estate experts of the Metropolis.

J. Zooming airplanes, shrieking sirens, shouting autos, women's screams, men's husky-throated "at-a-boy, Sammy", is just a wee bit of description or the biggest public demonstration a single individual in the history Atlantic City.

Sammy told a Kentucky to the Soldiers' Home, onlookers smashed several windows in order to get a full glimpse of Smilow's Sacrifice. This demonstration was the announcement of the Armistice. At the Soldiers' Home, Mayor Ruff wetted his hands. He held a Military City, the Press Union entrant.

TO TRY OR NOT TO TRY THAT IF THE GUMMED WILLS IS WELL BIRDY FROM A FINANCIAL STRENGTH HARRY WILLS By HENRY BROWN Many may tell you that Harry Wills, long known as forensic challenger among the heavyweights in sports, knows many things are said of fighting men once they suffer defeat in the squared circle. The flickiness of fandom does not let these resilious souls rest in peace for it is not tales of finance or the business world. The physical incomprehension and the lack. Never Says He's Thru Harry Wills, does not admit that he is thru with the bronze game. Today in his Harlem home, the Bronze Panther looks fit as a fiddle. His arm is strong, his side Down, is something any fighter might have experienced who had suffered mental torture as Wills was forced to undergo, during the years of watching and waiting for his chance at a glorious crown. Mental Torture The story of that period in prize FAN-SEES Rain had no effect upon the arder of the iams Sunday as they turned in the second inning started tailing in the second inning the game continued but hardly had the first game been completed than the second, for iams, canceling the second contest. --- And while speaking of rain, it would be well to suggest that some more effective covering be placed over a hot spot. One hard spot is at least a spat. On a hard spot, for little baiting from a stream that trickled through the roof remarked, "It's raining in here and leaking out on the diamond." . . . Holloway's hat barely touched the ball in the first inning, the ball rolling down the third base line to Perrer, who threw Holloway out at first. Tiant, the Havana pitcher, should receive credit for his marksmanship. --- Lindsey, formerly of the Sex, and more lately of the Penna. Red Capa, was in shortstop Sunday and made some excellent catches. His catch of Clarke's pike second in the second inning, was a spectacular event. Not to be outdone Jackson made a sensational catch of a foul bell immediately first base. Just outside the box raided. Tiant. Havana pitcher, was cautioned not to overstep the pitcher's box in the third inning. Ferrer's great barehand stop of Clarke's liner elicited the applause of the fans, the flashy Cuban player having his back turned to the ball as the stop was made. Yokely slammed the ball over the fence in the second inning and singled in the third driving in two outs. The ball landed in subsequent trips to the plate, but could only whiff the ether. Hearing a familiar voice crying out to find the owner, and to our surprise there was Lombardo the boxer, in a white coat n' everything. Morida ascended the hill for the visitors in the fourth and the fans upon hearing his named pronounced by Bill Lewis, immediately dubbed him "Bo Weevil". With the bases full in the sixth Yokel handily retired the side. Jackson made a desperate attempt to ston Ramirez's single in the seventh, but the ball was too far from his territory and Teran crossed the pitch to run "Scrapy" Brown viewed the game from the ducet. He was in uniform, however. When rain nourred, following the close of the game, members of the Havana team sought refuge in the grandstand, and attracted outage a crowd of players who listened to breathlessly to their linguistic performance. Washington and Lindsey were the only Black Sox players who failed to get hits Sunday. Quato, pinch hitter, batting for Morida, in the sixth with the outfielder, out fanned. Yokel grinned, and how. In the eighth he duplicated the trick. ST. MONICAS WIN TWO The St. Monica's tossers snatched plug, the Stanford plug, and the plug, the Stanford plug, and the Tales About All Idols fight trickery, has been told by the press throughout the land. It was a man doing something rarely a fighter overcomes. Take Dempsey's defeat in Philadelphia, his second defeat in Chicago. Both times we saw a warily old man making a plaint attempt to protect his tottering throne. The loss of his championship has not lessened Dempsey's popularity as a drawing card. And he has a better drawing card today than the present holder of the crown. Wills A Victim When the heat of his try for a chance at the title was the topic of discussion, he was Wills that he was to meet Dempsey. During our conference which lasted for two weeks, he would meet Dempsey. He passed the whole matter off as a joke. While holding, a scant hope that the title would be his, he never once was excited over the STAGE SET FOR SIXTH BALTIMORE MARATHON 26 Mile Jog To Be Run Thru City Streets, Saturday— Starts At Noon IS OLYMPIC TRYOUT Afro-American Giving Medal To First Race Runner With all details of the race whipped into final shape the stage is set for the sixth Balti- more Marathon, to be run thru the streets of the city, Saturday The route of the race, which begins at 12 noon, will be as follows: Start at City Hall Plaza, south to Park Avenue, north to North Park avenue, north to North avenue west to Harford road, north to Hillen road, northwest to Taylor avenue, west to York road, north to Alhambra Street avenue, south to Streeteveneau, south to Belvedere, west to Park Heights avenue, south to Reisterstown road, into Pennsylvania avenue, to Monroe street, south to St. Paul avenue, south and east to St. Paul street; south to Fayette street, east to City Hall Plaza and around Plaza to finish line.

Saturday, June 2, 1928 By BALPH MATTHEWS "I see the Goosenberrys is at it again," crooked the wife the other night, as we were preparing to hit the hay. "Ain't it terrible the way they squabbles all the time?" "People." I snaps. "who is handicapped with the brain the size of Joe Goosenberry's and his frail's, has to engage in verbal de-punctifications of each other to give their mouths some exercise, because they ain't got nothing else of consequences to gas- The legal holdback, as I affectionately calls the wife in my gentler moments, leaves the window where she has been listening in on the epitaphs which is being hurled fore and after by our neighbors, who generally gets along like two strange bulldogs who have been on a fast-and-lopes over to the side of the bed where I is doctoring a corn, and places her arms on my shoulder. "Ain't you happy," she coes, sweetlike, "that you and me don't have no fights like the Goosenberries." "I certainly is," I replies, "but what more could you expect after marrying a man who is a descendant from a long line of peace-lovers like I is?" "I am sure," snaps back the missis, "that you ain't due no more credit for keeping family hostilities at a minimum than I is, because nobody but a woman with a sweet disposition like I possesses could tolerate you disposition to a hour without a permit to carry a refer "But, dear," I replies, "I am giving you credit for the wonderful way in which you have cultivated self-control, because I don't have your could grow up to be as non-combatant as you have, after spending a large portion of your youth in a house where people fought like cats and dogs all the time like your old man and old lady did." "I'll have you understand, Henry Whipps, Johnson, that my people was just as respectable as yours was, and furthermore, even if my foizs did have a contest with the King's English occasionally, they, at least, know how to treat each other like acquaintances on the outside and didn't act as the only one to popular with each other as un I steps in the middle of an unbecoming sentence that I cannot escape, wrapping the money from the bags when I catches myself and asks what was the original cause of the argument. "Oh," I says, pulling the covers over my head, "that is no cause for argument. Any body with a gill of gray matter in their think tank knows that if I didn't kepe my feet constantly on the brakes of my emotions, our romance would have crashed up a telegraph pole long ago." "Do you mean to imply," inquires the helpmate, "that you has to force yourself to keep from taking a permanent leave of absence from me? If you do, you can put a damper on that gible-gabble you're handing out and hit the ozone tonight, because the more I look at you the more I am convinced that I had bats in my helfry when I permitted a sky pilot to mumble that 'till death doin' us part' stuff to me and I answered in the affirmative. Everybody said I was crazy when I married you." "Yes, and one of us has the opinion that you is still that way," I answers. "Now, turn over and go to sleep and keep that clap-trap shut until the alarm clock gives the signal for another round." This reaps her quiet for a while and I am just d|_{\rho}ing off into the land of snooze, when I is half consciously aware that the wife is snifling as though she is a hay fever victim, powdering her nose with a golden rod powder puff. "You don't love me any more, do you, Henry," she blubbers, babblings. "He'll!" she replies, pulling the covers higher over my head to shut off the receiving set. "Now, shut up and grab yourself a couple of snores, it's late." "But, you didn't usta holler at me like that," she stutters, letting out a new flood of tears. "Who's hollering at you?" I yelps, loud enough to set a job as a fog horn on a sea-going yacht. "Why don't you give your tongue the night off and let a feller build up his wornout tissues with a tonic of sleep and restmore?" This, apparently, turns the trick, because it grows as quiet on the other side of the bed as though they was having silent prayer in a deaf and dumb asylum. I'm just congratulating myself on my cleverness at finding in my nimble brain a mouthful of phrases that would gag the frail without resorting to the use of a snash weight, when, what does she do but pops the conundrum, "Henry, is there another woman who makes you want to get rid of me?" In spite of the fact that at that particular moment I would feel very grateful to the power that would automatically remove the other hat of my mattress and its contents in China. I was forced to Inquire as to where she obtained the information that I was busying myself on this riddance proposition. "Never speak to me again,you brute," she commands getting out of bed and starting across the room. "That is all right with me, Honey," I replies, "if you will promise to do the same thing." Her answer that she would, gives me so much relief that I gets real comfortable for the first time that night and am on the trail of Morpheus when what does she do but turns on the light. I waches her out of one eye as she flits about the room, gathering up this piece of feminine unmentionables and that, ransacking the bureau drawers and packing the whole kaboodie into a suit case, but I don't say nothing, although I has a dickens of a time trying to muffle the haw haws when she stumps her toe on a chair. After wiggling into her street duds, she pauses at the door to see if I has anything to say, but I sends up a solo of snores in Call Vernon 6016 deep falsetto. Pretty soon I feels her snak- ling me. "You might tell me 'goodbye,' she aaps, seeing as how I never expect to look into your eyes," she says. "But, Baby, you forgets that you and me n't speak at each other no more; but where do you think you is going?" because I have tolerated enough abuse from a banjo eyed rapacallion like you is. I don't wish you no bad luck, but hope you unmistake a banjo hollow oil or mercury for granted sugar and spritze it on a doughnut full of arsenic. She goes downstairs quick and slams the front door. It is now four a. m. and as we live in the suburbs with a long walk to the carline, that you yourself, I isn't a bit surprised when I hears her coming in again, very slowly. "You big son of a couch bettle," she begged. "I don't want to be to the carline instead of lying in bed resting your lazy cares. You don't care what happens to me between here and home." Another man, she replies, regardless of what occasion I have. "You never be guilty of helping a married woman run off from her husband at 4:30 in the morning. I have to go must. Go your luggage in the car and butress a young boy like myself can't be too careful with our reputations. Try and make you comfortable till daybreak." You come to a bridge of a chair when I actually do go to sleep. In the morning when I scrabble down-stairs instead of seeing her garbed in her going away clothes, she is wearing her usual apron and kitchen frock and has a steaming breakfast of hot flap jacks and country bread. "Henry," she quivers in the middle of the usual morning kiss, "nin't you glad that me and you don't fuss and fight like the Goosenberry's doe?" She replies and makes a dash for the carline before she has an opportunity to ask who is responsible for keeping so much peace in the family. Cake Frostings By ANN PAGE, Director, A. and P. Bureau of Home Economics FROSTINGS Some people seem to eat cake because of the sweet taste. While good frosting will not make up for poor cake, the combination of a smooth creamy frosting with a light and delicate cake makes about as good a dessert as can be found. Perhaps the frosting which is liked better than any other is what is known as "Bolled Frosting". I am going to give you the recipe for such frosting. Any woman who has struggled with "runny frosting" will appreciate this. Bottle the sugar and water until when told. Bake in a pan from the spoon by a long thread (24% water) over the beaten whites. Beat well and place the bowl in hot water. Beat until it is also going to give you the recipe for a good uncooked Mochia Prostecting it to the cake, however, must be the cake a short time before it is to be served. Spring Sewing By ELSIE OWENS Mary came to the house today and asked me to go down town shopping with her. I love shopping, so I went with her. She bought, ginkgams, long-cloth, various cotton goods. In such quantities that I asked her what additional doing with so much material. She explained as we drove home. You know I always buy now because cotton goods are so cheap. I can get many materials at half-price now. I begin sewing right away. There is much pleasure sewing these dull, late winter days. But when the birds beep and all the downs is calling in the spring and summer, I can't sew." "So now, I make my little girl's summer dresses and underclothes, put them away in neat piles. I make my boy's blouses. Myself. I make my girl's house dresses. I make under-clothing. For house dresses, I get bright gingham and percales. For I think, in the house, one can use all the bright colors one wishes. I make dust-caps to match my dresses. I make plenty of large gingham aprons. Sheets and bed-clothing generally are so cheap now that I get in a year's supply at least. Table linens are cheap too. Clothes can be bought to an advantage. They can be made now. Then, it is quite a pleasant thing to have plenty of clothes ready for anything that may turn up."

Frey's Vermifuge Frey's Worms Expets Worms 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 of their infanty, caused by regarding baby as an aminated toy for the amusement 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 indulged caused to laugh or even scream, will cause or be in vomiting, and invariably causes irritability, crying or sleeplessness. Fretfulness, crying and sleeplessness from this cause can easily be avoided by treating baby with more than one but when you just can't see what is making baby restless or upset, better give drops of purine, hardiness 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 wrapper. Leading physicians prescribe the role, choer, diarrhea, constipation, 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. Over 25 million bottles used a year each bottle of Castoria, you get, book on Meadowood, worth its weight in gold. Look at Fletcher's signature on the package so you'll get genuine Castoria. There are many imitations.

BEAUTY HINTS By NINA TEMPLE QUICK HAIR WASH Now that spring is at the door and the hot summer days follow thereafter, it is well to be fore-armed with this little secret for washing the hair quickly — it is indeed a dry cleaning, as the effect is the same as that obtained through the cleaners when used our silk and woolen garments.

BALTIMORE In Darker Baltimore By RALPH MATTHEWS In an obsure corner of a lunchroom window on Baltimore street there is pasted a small card containing the following prayer: "Dear Lord give me strength throughout this day to keep my damn nose out of other people's business." The contrast in language might approach sacrilege, but what a wonderful world this would be if everybody, especially church members, would utter that prayer every morning and God took particular pains to answer each prayer before he went about his other duties for the day. In the final analysis most of the misery, discontent, restlessness, and mal-adjustments that result from our present social order are caused by just what this prayer implies, sticking one's nose in other people's bus Social Mob Violence Students of the race problem say with authority that many of the rape cases which result in brutal lynchings in the Southland, would not be rape had third parties kept in touch with the victim's innocence. Discovered there is nothing for the fair maiden to do to protect her fairer name but to raise a cry of rape. The human race, gregarious to a fault and ever anxious to settle other folks' affairs, sticks its combined nose into the young lady's assumed role as a victim on America by cannibalistic demonstration of mob violence. We sophisticated Baltimoreans raise our hands in holy horror and demand the passage of anti-lynch laws and the like, but we fail to see the realities. We have lists in our fair village a form of social mob violence that in its effect is more ruthless than the most hideous tortures ever created by the deprived mind of the Southern cracker. Instead of fire-brands, hang-man's ropes and tar and feathers, the weakness is gossip, which brings us right back to our starting point, sticking our noses in other people's business and bringing it out dripping with scandal. Fair Trial America, with all of its advancement, still condones the killing and deterring certain crimes, so in many cases it is not the imposition of death that makes mob THE AFRO CARRIES MORE NEWS THAN ANY OTHER WEEKLY."—Eugene Gordon, 1927 Survey. Lovely can be Quick, sure way A&P ESTABLISHED 1859 **demonstrations so objectionable, but the failure to give ...e victim a fair and impartial trial and definitely establishing his guilt.** In this respect physical mob violence and verbal mob violence are often without obtaining the facts, not stopping to investigate, without giving their victims an opportunity to defend themselves, tearing them limb from limb. The fact that the reputation and character is thus picked to pieces instead of the body is not the reason for none the less barbarous. In truth, the Southern style is the gentler of the two, because death eventually ends the suffering of the youth burning at the stake, while the victim of a verbal lynching must still live the embers and pretend to like them. The difference is, one kills the body and the other, the soul. Neither race prejudice nor mob violence can be completely blotted out by legislation. A law against gossip if it followed the course of the law in the creation of a more deadly bootleg brand and surely the brand we have is deadly enough. As my contribution to making the world a more decent place to live in I offer this prayer: "Dear Lord, give me strength throughout this day to keep him from other of people's business. Amen." Good Will Dolls The children, who frequent the Sharp Street Community House are doing themselves proud by sending goodwill packages, dolls and bundles to the children of Japan and Mexico. This is pure unadulterated hokum. Why, may I ask, should little colored children of America have so much sympathy and compassion on little children of Japan when they come to America when they grow up they can enjoy privileges right here that are denied to the former. Is there little wonder why Orientals upon coming to this country, look down upon people of color when they find the latter barred from schools and other places where they have ready access? Suppose, and this sugars of sending dolls and packages all the way to Asia, just for the notoriety and because the whites are doing it, let us look around in some of the alleys in the rear of the Community House and spread a little cheer to the little brown kiddies who are living in the squares there, how the world is back, how the world the world and back, seeking happiness, only to find it in our own back yards.

Positive, written, money-back Makes skin whiter while you sleep From One Teacher To Another The Questions Dear Margaret: I know that you must be quite confused these days, with so many rebellious ideas afloat concerning the duties and the burdens of the teacher. You must wonder where your public duty ends and your duty to yourself begins. I have been wondering how you have solved these problems, that is, far do you sacrifice your personal inclinations for the good of the service? Seriously, Margaret, what do you do about all these questions of proper dress for teachers, routine, department and the rest of it? Do you teach by precept or example, or a course? Do you do as I do" or "Don't do as I do but do as I say do?" Do you honestly believe that all the so-called "Blue Laws" for teachers can be cast aside and successful teaching accomplished without them? You know it is difficult to teach without it of teaching should result if it is done effectively. For instance the public expects its children to form habits of punctuality, neatness, dependability, politeness and good taste in dress, besides a few other things, and we must admit the public pays more attention to give about these things. With me, teaching is more than a profession, it is a calling to give something within you to the world, as well as to draw a check Kraft's Cheese Pimento lb. 39c Swiss lb. 43c Apple Sauce CAN 15c Window Screens Size 24x33 each 39c A & P Catsup 2 8 OZ.

It deals with the soul and spirit of human beings, as well as their mentality, therefore there can be no hard and fast line laid down indicating when our duties are fulfilled.

The public has some right to expect more than a passing body of facts poured into the skills, skills, training and character. Most efficient factories to-day take their former waste material and make by-products which in many instances are more valuable than the original product. So in the school, the human factory, the by-products are valuable than the original product. I could tell you many little incidents to illustrate this if I had time at this writing, however I shall write - you more later. At this time I am more anxious to hear what you think on the subject, which will look to hear from you next week. "Twas a bleak day in December, When I fell down, when me for a ride.

GOOD MORNING JUDGE Mrs. Coleman Feels She Has Stood Enough "Judge your honor," wailed Mrs. John Coleman, 598 Biddle street, in the Northwestern Police Station, Monday, "I want my husband put as far back in the jail as you can put him." "What's the trouble?" demanded the Magistrate. "Well, Your Honor, I go out every day and work like a Turk and he hangs around home and doesn't do a thing; he is just worthless. I have put up with him for a year and can't do it any longer." "What brought about the sudden change?" asked the Magistrate. Sudden? why, Judge, this has been coming on me for a long time, but he speeded my decision the other day when after I had been working and he had been hanging around home all day he jumped on me when I came home all tired out and started to beat me." "You don't want me to put him in jail do you?" asked the Magistrate. "Well, I haled him in here for that specific purpose and and as far as I am concerned the longer you make him stay there the better." "I tell sentence him to 27 days, said Joseph. "I don't know. "That saint half enough, judge, but if that is all the days you have to I guess I guess I have to be satisfied. Wright Finds New Way To Break Up Argument The old story of the peacemaker's getting the worst of a battle was getting the worst of a battle when Howard Wright, 46, W Hoffman, 48, tempted to stop an argument between Fred Brown and wife Sunday, according to testimony in the Northwestern police station. Wright was awakened by the pair on the floor below and down stairs to investigate. "Don't you leave your wife alone and stop fighting?" he remonstrated with the husband. "This is my wife and I can fight with her as much as I want and you haven't any thing to do with it." You Wright proceeded to show how much he had to do with it and a fight started during which Brown was stabbed in the eve. You went down stairs to make peace in the family. Wright told the judge. "Your intentions may have been good." said the Magistrate. "but when I break up an argument by trying to get the truth, we are using the wrong method and I will have to fine you $50 and costs.
