Carter, treasurer of Tuskegee Institute, was named as receiver of the grand lodge of the Knights of Pythias, by Judge William Walker. Carter posted $75,000 bond. The naming of Carter as a receiver is the outgrowth of court proceedings start several months ago by Phillip. Shorter, and fourteen other members of the organization, when they asked that a receiver be named on the grounds that officers of the order are squandering money. The complaint was brought for Shorter and other members of the order by John Altman Benign and John Hairy Benignes. The complaint charged that R. A. Blount, U. G. Mason, and E. A. Brown, attorneys, all of Birmingham, were in control of the grand lodge, and had been years. Used Money Blount has served as Grand Chancellor for 27 years, Mason has served 20 years as Endowment, I. B. Kigh, chancellor of the E. A. Brown, has served equally long, and E. A. Brown, Grand Attorney.

Hawkins WASHINGTON, D. C. (Special)—Old line politicians put on a drive here Monday to have one of their number named to manage the colored end of the Hoover campaign. The name of Homer Phillips, a young St. Louis lawyer, practically unknown until he was selected by Mrs. A. E. Malevolo to appear in the famous Poro College suit, is the choice of the old guard Republicans. George W. Harris, of New York: Alton Holsey, of Tuskegee; Claudie A. Barnett, of Chicago; made their rounds of official Washington Monday in order to enhance employment of those in the proper hands. Those men are said to have the backing of Dr. R. R. Moton, of Tuskegee. The new era crowd of Republicans headed by Dr. Emmett J. Scott, have long also placed in nomination Dr. John R. Hawkins, president of the Presidential Bank, and secret archeologist of the African American delegate to the recent National Republican Convention and one to whom was given the honor of seconding the nomination of candidate Hoover. The "new era" part of the pitcher applied to the Hawkins group to run the Hoover campaign, so that Mr. Hawkins, while not wealthy, is not seeking a place for himself at the political pie counter. As a financier and former college president, the inference is that the would drive the committee to the Hoover and fisher's but in the best interest of the group and the candidate.

WILSON DECLINES TO QUIT DIXIE PULLMAN Elk Leader Threatened With Mob On Illinois Central CONDUCTOR APOLOGISES 35 Years On Road, He Says, And Wants No Trouble MEMPHIS, Tenn. (Special to the AFRO). — "Please, Tessor, go easy on me, 'cause I've been hyuh 35 years and don' wan' no trub- bel," said F. A. Steinbeck, white train conductor of the Illinois Central Railroad to J. Finley Wilson, Grand Exalted Ruler of the I. B. P. O. Elks of the World, at the Memphis station on the morning of July 3. Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson had arrived safely here because of his refusal to be bluffed out of his Pullman berth on a rather hectic ride from St. Louis to Memphis, on the I. C. crack St. Louis-Memphis flyer, the "Chuckawaw" was on route to Memphis to attend the obsequies of the late Wayman Wilkerson, bank official, coffin company owner, and Grand Trustee of the Elks. Mr. Wilson said he had just gotten to sleep when he was abruptly awakened by the rather rough singing of a band called Sheeket of the heath and gone up front: Steinbeck was saving, according to Wilson, "To gin the law for niggahs to be in sleepin' cars when we gets in Kintucky. We done left Cairo." Wilson reminded the conductor that, as an interstate passenger, he was above the law; lawyers narrow southern States; he therefore declined to be disturbed. Returned Twice "Somewhere between Cairo, Ill. and Fulton, Ky. Steinbock returned," said Wilson. "and again demanded that I impress him with the job." Mr. Wilson stated. "Shortly afterward, Comfort Steinbock again returned and threatened me with the mob. I reported that the night was dark, the country strange, and that, as an interstate passenger, I would take with the mob." Ask the heard no from Steinbock that night, he said. Apology Approaching the Tennessee metropolis of Memphis early morning, cornering the apprised of Mr. Wilson's identity, came to him and said that it would be perfectly all right for Wilson to arrange a meeting room: "The Pullman conductor said it was all right." Steinbeck apologetically mumbled.

WASHINGTON. — Mr. Howard has started cleaning out the Coolidge administration before he gets to the White House, say politicians who have followed the Senate investigation committee into Georgia and now the Department of Justice into MISSION Perry Howard's arrest has started a flock of telegrams to Hoover headquarters. He couldn't even wait until Cal's time is out, some of the leaders declare. Hoover's connection with these cases is clear. Before the special grand jury was convened T. J. Willis, an attorney for Hattiesburg, who represented the plaintiff, who said in court proceedings against the Perry Howard organization, in a statement appearing in the daily press July 10. said: Hoover—Hoover "I learned before the Republican national convention got under way that if Mr. Hoover was nominated, action would be taken to remedy the situation in Mississippi and that the present corrupt leaders would not remain in power for any great length of time. "I have every reason to believe that legal recourse will be had before long that will leach to a house cleaning in the Republican party in Mississippi and a new deal under the leadership of Lamont Rowlands of Picayune as national committeeman for this state." Mr. Willis concluded with a statement that he firmly believed that government agencies were at work in an effort to eliminate those in charge of Republican politics in Mississippi. The racial aspect was given significance upon the arrival of Mrs. Willebrandt from Washington. She boldly declared, it is reported here, that she had come to the city of the white people of Mississippi from Negro domination in Republican politics, and she promised the dawn of a new day. Department of Justice The surprising element is that the Department of Justice is leasing itself to a scheme of this kind. The site for the grand jury proceedings was carefully chosen with a hostility to Howard and his associates. This is the stronghold of the "lily whites" who sought to oust him at Kansas City. Willebrandt-Howard Fewd The sending of Mrs. Willebrandt into Mississippi to procure the indictment against Howard and his political associates is believed to have been the master stroke are determined to return the Republican organization in Mississippi to white control. She is a white woman. The Howard-Willebrandt feud goes back to Kansas City, where differences arose between the two, but Howard and his delegation were seated at the United States court, quoted here, "if we fail to get you here, we will get you in D. C." TAILORS, DRESSMAK'RS TO MEET IN D.

CHURCH ASKING FOR MORE THAN IT WILL GET Religious Demands On Modern Youth Too Great Says Pastor 600 DELEGATES AT C. M. E. YOUTH CONGRESS Hear Speakers DETROIT, MICH., (Special)—The Young People's Jubilee of the Chicago, Detroit and Pittsburgh district, Colored Methodist Episcopal Church, closed here Sunday after having been in session since Tuesday. This was the first meeting of its kind ever held in this section of the C. M. E. Church and was largely attended by representatives of the loyal churches in the states of Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Michigan. It was estimated that over 600 delegates and visitors were present at the opening session: Tuesday morning, at 8:45, at the St. John's C. M. E. Church, Maple and St. Auburn. Bishop Hamlett The opening address was delivered by Bishop J. Arthur Hamlett. A, D. M., D. S. T. B., presiding bishop of the Eighth Episcopal District of the Colored Methodist Church. His address dealt with the changed situation on the part of youth in that youth no longer took the church or anything else for granted. He pointed out four questions that inquisitive youth of today is asking: 1. Is Christianity Credible? 2. Is Christianity Teachable? 3. Is Christianity Workable? What has Christianity, as a religion, to offer youth of today? He said it was the business of the church to demonstrate to youth that Christianity is believed, teachable, workable and something of worthwhile and intrinsic value to offer youth of today as it has had in its history. Dr. Rice Talks Dr. Merton S. Rice, minister of the Metropolitan M. E. Church, Detroit, delivered a very able address at the Wednesday devotional hour. His address was on the subject "The Straight Gate and the New Way". Dr. Rice has built one of the largest and most costly church conferences of the entire world and preaches to more people each Sunday than any three preachers in the state of Michigan. He refused the Episcopacy at the recent Conference of the great Methodist Episcopal Church in Kansas City in May. There are but few prominent pulpits in Methodism but have tried Dr. Roll On Youth Dr. Bell. The most outstanding speech of the university was the address of Dr. William Yancey Bell, of William Institutional Church. New York City. Dr. Bell's address dealt with "Youth and the Church." He deplored the apathy on the part of the church in the past in not taking proper interest in the youth to the end that an ample program be instituted such as guardian, youth. He maintained that the church was asking too much of youth when its demands include: Unquestioning and absolute acceptance of dittional dogmas and creeds; sanctimonious acquaintance in all its practices; the nice and be liked; or be quietly and be licked; to be present with old and traditional order of church life and church work; to listen to sermons prepared — and delivered — at least, delivered — or those into whose experiences they shall have entered whose background is to them and who do not speak their language; to listen to those sermons and like them, or at least pretend to like them; to look at its ethical inconsistencies and hypocrisy and not see them; to wink with them at breast; to the moral code, which fortunately youth mantimes has not the courage and wish to discountance and in. In the final analysis, he maintained that the church asked more of its youth than it is either likely or entitled to get. The full list of speakers: Bishop J. A. Hamlett. Kansas City, Kan. Dr. G. C.

Standards By The Hundreds STATE'S SWING TO AL SMITH INDICATED Ohio's 24 Votes With New York's 45 Will Give Al A Chance WASHINGTON, D. C. The first report of a revolt of colored voters from the Republican party reaches here from Ohio. If the defection should prove to be as general as it is reported, it may swing the 24 electoral votes of that state into the Smith column in the presidential election. Ohio has not gone Democratic in a national election since Woodrow Wilson carried it in 1916. According to accounts reaching here, an investigation was made of the reported desertion of the Republican party by individual colored men and women. The government was general and that the colored vote almost solidly Republican, was planning to support the Democratic electoral ticket. Through the colored newspapers in Ohio, it is reported, propaganda with this result in view has been conducted from New York for a number of months. Different Reasons Different reasons are given for this action. The chief one is believed to be resentment at the treatment accorded colored Republicans during the eight years the party has been in power. Colored Republicans also look distrustfully at the favor in which the Senator Hoover is held by the Secretary of State, and capture electoral votes in the Solid South. The Solid South is made up of ten states that have never gone Republican. They are Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, North and South Carolina and Virginia. These states have a total of 114 electoral votes. Republican leaders concede that block of votes to Governor Smith. They profess to have a fighting chance in North Carolina. In the other states of the Solid South they have been led to believe that the Republican vote can be materially increased in those tan organizations in those states be supplanted by a white man's party. The checking of the Ohio revolt of of paramount interest. If it should s spread to the border States of Maryland, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee and Oklahoma. Republican leaders have a total of 61 electoral votes. The addition of these votes to the Solid South would give Gov- ernor Smith 175 electoral votes, 101 short of the deadline to win. 100,000 Votes If Smith can carry New York with 45 electoral votes New Jersey with 14. Connecticut with 7 and Rhode Island with 5. he will still need 20. The Ohio revolt, if not checked, may give him 24, bringing about his election. It is estimated there are more than 100,000 colored voters in Ohio. S. S. Lesson Sunday, July 22nd: SAUL'S EARLY MINISTRY Actions 9: 19-b-30: 19: 18-30: 25: Gal. 1: 15-18.

Conventions It is not to the advantage of the convention in Kansas City to contract it with the conventions at Houston, Texas, in its treatment of the Negro. At Kansas City the Republicans had as much segregation in the convention as Boston in the city that far north. But worse they showed just how high they value the Negro element in their party by displacing every Negro leader (save one who is doubtless relied upon to return a republican major from the Sovereign Party to slass the National Committee and turning the entire political authority and control over to the Lily White Republicans of the South Now as between political huxiers and freebooters, known as "Lily Whites" give me a good straight, dyed-in-the-wool, southern democratic every Among Democrats Severity per cent of the Negro population of the United States lives and shall continue to live, in the South, among these same Democrats Regardless of race, it takes votes to place in power a political party in which power is a political role the Negro is concerned, there is no morocry, or concealment in the attitude of our southern democracy Self-respecting black men an women should turn from the political aphness and contempt of the Republican party and demonstrate their disapproval.

Isiah was a great man, but the human being that he was, like all people he had faults, he allowed the attraction of kingly pomp to get between him and God.

"Whether we see God or not depends on three conditions, the power of our vision, what intervenes, our desire." "To see God," said the speaker.

Atlanta, Ga. New York Society New York is getting gayer this summer than ever before in its long and eventful history. Of course, when I say New York is Hometown, I am from 110th street and street from the East River to the Hudson River the story is the same—record breaking season. During the past week I have peeped in on groups here from every point in these United States. Oh, yes, the largest portion are from the South. I have no excuse to get away for a big time. Those with the slightest bit of peep are having the time of their young lives. Y. W. C. A. Seems as though each year the Harlem Library and the Harlem Branch of the Y. W. C. a. fete the summer students with welcome dances. I have noticed for the past several years that it is not these sort of affairs that the incoming students and visitors to Harlem have to take them a day to find out just where the real roaring parties are being held. Last Friday for an instance, about three hundred people packed the gymnasium of the school for just such a good lemonade party that I had to attend. Y. W. C. A., but my, oh, my, where were the summer school teachers that the party was thrown for! I found them later at a Miss Mame Briggs at her luxuriously appointed apartment on St. Nicholas avenue. SUGAR CANE CLUB Another fifty or so had heard about Harlem's so called den of iniquity, the good old Sugar Cane Club, managed by Luther Cherry and his mighty dancing students, understanding students had even found their way to Mexico, a rather cerie dive frequented by a rather jaded theatrical and pseudo society group. The students were so alarmed by Harlem until almost dawn and seems to me that wherever I chanced to the stop, no matter what the reputation of the place, I found the flowers and students who know the pass words to the hide-a-ways, but very frequently they were escorted by liberal men about town and believe me, oftimes, the men were married men with HIDE-AWAYS I have also had a chance to observe many of these same young ladies in their home towns, where everyone knows each other. But here in Harlem with its quarter million population and its hundreds of night clubs and speakers, one might enjoy one's self-taught encountering anyone to censor your actions. The word is handed back to those who missed coming to New York and each year three days, no matter the star of "Show Boat". Anyhow, it seems since Mr. Bledsoe has signed with Mr. Ziegfeld he has lost all of Mr. Manis Briggs and Miss Sue Stuff's party last week that the ponderous baritone, though feted to a sickenking degree, just smiled and THE MISSES STITTS AND BRIGGS, both of "Show Boat", have been very much in the limelight these days through their much sought after participation. It is be lucky enough to get a bid for one and after that they automatically find themselves wandering to the harbor of good time. The party I learned that it was also given in honor of his sister, Nami Cobb, a Texas school teacher, and Dr. Whitfield, of Some of those I noticed around the special Stitt punch bowl were, the Misses Viola Scudder, Harold Bassch, Anita Clark, Dorothy Bella, Moelle and Grace Clark, Else Thomas, Pauline Fisher, Mrs. Bessy Beardson, Mrs. Sart Pice Patton, Dr. and Mrs. Charles Harris. The Messrs. Samuel Oelens, Randy Taylor, Mrs. Pice Caska Bondes, Emile Bonnar, Dr. Edward Jones, Robert Gorham, Dr. Eward Perry, Dr. Melville Charlton, Robert Douglas, Ernest Hemby and Dr. Rudolph.

Miss Scott was arrested Sunday at 135th street and Seventh avenue, after Mrs. Butler, searching Harlem tor her for more than a month, discovered her in the passing throng. Mrs. Butler seized Miss Scott and called for the police. The police are still looking for a tall man, known about Harlem as "Gorilla," who, according to Mrs. Butler, assisted in the film-flam process. On the morning of May 31, Mrs. Butler explained, while she was on her way uptown to the laundry, she was approached 172nd Avenue and Madison Avenue by the tall man. He had just advertised for a waiting-room attendant that mouting, he explained, and Mrs. Butler he said, seemed to him to be the very person for the enumerated her qualifications for the place, he suddenly pulled Mrs. Butler's sleeve and exclaimed: "Well! Well! What do you know about me?" He looked over there and smiled in a pocket book. JASON Mrs. Butler looked down the street and saw a girl, peering into a wallet and plucking at something unmistakably interesting. "Let's see what she's found," suggested the man unselfishly. Together, they approached the lucky girl. She seemed in a trance. Her eyes were wide with astonishment. She felt so fortunate from her fingers. At once, Mrs. Butler's friend took charge of the situation. He said: "Now as a matter of fairness to all, I should split this even three ways." That seemed fair enough to Mrs Butler, but when she drew closer, the man objected: "Now wait a minute. This is a pretty big transaction. We don't know but what the owner of this pocketbook may turn out to be and if he does will well return him tomorrow or worse. So before we split in, we ought to have see- city to cover what we hand out." That also struck Mrs. Butler as reasonable. She went home, got the $450 she had been hoarding and returned, placing it in the hands of her new benefactor. Well, now I suppose we had better get the $1,000 changed, he suggested. That seemed fair enough too, so when he disappeared around the corner, Mrs. Butler felt not the slightest uneasiness. Five minutes passes. Then the colored girl, whose part up to this time had been totally passive, said she could in search in of the man she did. And after a long wait Mrs Butler sought the police. N. Y. CIVIL SERVICE N. Y. CIVIL SERVICE ( Prepared by the New York Academy of Business ) It was discovered that many of the residents of Harlem applied for the examinations of the Probation Officer (Chill's Courts), with the Municipal Civil Service Commission, just before the close of applications on last Thursday, July 17th. The place sometimes is early Fall, giving all those who filed an ample time for preparation. This position with the city government pays an annuum, and the examinations are made soon after the establishment of the eligible list. O. Chloe July 21st will be the last examination for the postoffice clerk and carrier for the summer. These examinations have been running each month for the past three years and gone into the service from these tests. It may be conservatively estimated that more than 500 have been appointed during this period. The examinations of the residents of Harlem has received during this period. Commissioner of Fire Dorman, has appointed 80 new firemen to his department, and we do not believe that, these men have not been trained. Williams, who has been in the fire department for many years, is making an excellent record. Let us have more applications for the firemen to our group. The examination is not very difficult.

One aspect is political. Another is racial. Its purpose, it is commonly reported here, is to use the republican party organization in this state from the hands of Negroes. Three Investigations There have been three previous investigations of alleged irregularities in patronage distribution in Mississippi. Port office inspectors conducted one, agents of the Department of Justice another, and a Federal grand jury in the northern district of Mississippi a third. None of these investigations, a congressional committee disclosed any offering of Federal patronage, nor offering to indict colored Republican leaders was made until the beginning of the presidential campaign. Has Hoover's Approval According to Senator Smith W Brookhart, Republican, of Iowa chairman of the subcommittee of the Senate post office committee, with whom Mrs. Willebrand conferred red Atlantic airplanes, the investigation has the approval of Herbert C. Hoover, the Republican presidential candidate. In a statement last Friday, Senator Brookhart declared that her credit is the one贷 for the work in obtaining up the patronage situation in the South. Four Were Velcgrates Four of those under indictment here were delegates to the Republican national convention. They are Perry W. Howard, A. M. and S. Redmond and J. Patina. They are Mr. Hoover and voted for his nomination. If these men are corrupt now, it is pointed out, they were corrupt then, and there is a taint of corruption surrounding the nomination of Mr. Hoover, in respect to the special grand jury investigation is the fight for the Democratic nomination for United States Senator from state. Representative J. Webb Wilson of the congressional district is opposing Senator Hubert Stenberg for repenation. White Supremacy Mr. Wilson is making his fight on white supremacy. In speech after speech he has charged Senator Stephens with aiding Perry Howard and his associates in controlling Republican politics in Mississippi by conniving at their handling of Federal patronage. Wilson was one of the principal witnesses before the special grand jury. It was then conceived, he quit campaign tour to come here and testify. The return of the indictments, it is believed will aid him in his campaign. Put Butcher On Ice A bandit, who is believed by police to be connected with other hold-ups of a similar nature, entered the butcher store of Henry Wahl, 40, white, 2439 Eighth avenue, pointed a revolver at him, ordered him into the ice box, and escaped with $125.

VICTOR RECORDS THE JAZZ SHOP By RALPH MATTHEWS With the National Medical Association Convention, which convenes here the second week in August, rapidly approaching, local wits among the profession are rubbing their funny bones and a good bit of humor on the profession is in the air. A reporter sent out to corral as many of these droll stories as he can pick up returns with a goodly number of choice game. Many are tar from original but who ever heard a joke or cracked a pun that somebody didn't say "Oh, I heard that one before?" She Knew What She Wanted Dr. Frank Cardoza, 1524 Drudl Hill avenue, L responsible for this one. An old Southern lady went to a doctor's office and asked him to come see her husband. "I'm sorry," said the doctor, "but I cannot take the case." "Why can't you all take the case," she demanded hastily. "Can you take my shingle that I am not a physician. I am a veterinary surgeon — & horse doctor." "Bless my soul!" cried the lady joyously, "then you are just the man I want. Why my husband is the most mullish man I ever saw in my life." Could You Blame Him Dr S. Bernard Hughes, 1419 Druid Hill avenue, the city's leading surgeon, in an off hand way tells this one: A patient who had just come out of the operating room was rejoicing that he had come out successfully. Don't be sure to surreally alice in the next to this. "They left a sponge in them and had to cut me again." "Why," chirped the patient in the next bed," they had to open me to find one of their instruments that had been sewed up in me." Just then the surgeon who had performed the operation looked in the door and yelled: Dr. James H. Hilburn, proprietor of Hilburn's Drug Store drops this one. The man came into the drug store and walked up to the counter. "I want one of those plasters you stick on your back," he said. suck on your back, he said. "I understand," said the clerk "you mean one of our porous plasters?" "Naw, sah. I don't want none of your porous plasters." he replied indignantly, "I want the best plasters you've got." He Was Playing Safe There ought to be one on the dentists and sure enough WHO COMES TO THE RESCUE BUT Dr. Leon H. Mayer with the following anecdote. When I first started practice an old man walked in to have a tooth decay. He looked about my rather shabbly furnished office and was a bit skeptical. "I can pull your tooth." I informed him, "but I will have to give you gas." "What does that do to me," he asked. "It makes you unconscious," he said. He took you down book and began to finger his bills when I informed him that he did not have to pay until after the treatment, as I could trust him. "I am not going to pay you," he said "to sleep I would like to put me to sleep I would like to count my money first as I don't trust you." Still On Trail Not to be thwarted the reporter is still trying to trail the elusive whizz to its lair and capture several specimens for the edification of AFRO readers. It is stored in merry chase in this drug office and out of that physician's office and past that dentist's haven of misery, but just watch for next week's catch.

Branch was convicted and sentenced to thirty-five years of hard labor, charged with raping a girl, assaulting her Irish companion and taking what money she had. As the sentence was imposed Branch's wife fainted and had to be carried from the court room. The crime took place June 17 about midnight in a dark region of the Fairmount Park, where the girl and her companion were "put unconscious" and claimed to have posed as officers. After the men had led them a short distance away they put the male companion out of order with clubs and the young woman wore both vests. On the night of July 3rd, Branch was found by Park police at about the same spot and the same time. He was arrested and brought to trial. Branch attempted to establish an alibi that he was making the U.K. law until late the night of the crime and that he went home with his wife when the meeting was over. Several members of the society tried to that effect. Branch testified for her husband but in her written statement to the police several days earlier she stated that her husband never brought home anything "nice" for her and the children. Branch the trial was a great success. Hard-boiled Judge McDevitt said: "I wish that I couldouble it". The court appointed the defense attorney Thomas J. Minnick, white, at the end of the trial. The jury instructed the jury to render a verdict of guilty. Served As Cop Branch served in 1919 as police officer and was dismissed because of "conduct unbecoming an officer". He has also a number of other counts against him in a long record. "He was lucky not to be lynched", was said in a muffled tone by a police officer. When Branch began to stammer in the face of his two conflicting statements another white fellow, said "They have him cornered now." Upon leaving the stand the girl making the charges took a seat immediately beside Mrs. Branch. Soon he had to move because of the defense group. Throughout the rest of the trial they continued to look at her out of the corners of their eyes. MERCY HOSP. DRIVE OVER $318,888 PHILAEDLPHIA—The Mercy Nurses Drive for a new nurses home and school which ran thru twenty days closed mueskay night with total of $220,864 or nearly $100,000 over the amount asked for. Over 1,000 race workers turned in a total of $161,117, while the remaining amount came from White people and persons Among the subscriptions was a gift of $2,300 from John T. Glisson, owner of the Standard Theatre, and $7,000 reported by George Wharton Pepper, whose wife secured amount from a prominent Philadelphia who desired to remain un According to Dr. H. M. Minton, head of the hospital, the amount subscribed would not only build the nurses home and training school but would wipe out the $50,000 on the hospital property.

Some is hard and sour others are mellow and sweet; some are rotten and good for nothing others are freash and healthful; some are given as toys to pacify over-grown cry babies, others are given for healing and nurture. The worst of these plums are eagerly gathered and the familiar old tree is constantly and violently shaken. There is no wonder that numberless clans and cliques and attacks from behind obtain in this city of Brotherly Love—the tree so large and the plums so many are still far too small and too few for fiercely hungry job seekers.

(3) Negro officers have separate sleeping quarters in the city Station Houses. (4) Philadelphia has a quota of four thousand three hundred men in the Police Department. FIRE DEPARTMENT There is one company of Negroes in the Fire Department. All of the officers are white. Possibly had the twenty men not fought among themselves when an opening for a Lieutenant developed, there would now be at least one colored officer in the Fire Department. Incidentally the fight was both within and without. The Eleventh Engine Company has a good record and is made up of some bright healthy men. STREET CLEANERS In the Street Cleaning Department many men are employed. Unlike in Baltimore where white men practically monopolize the position. The pure white stock from Richmond or Baltimore would shudder to see a Negro on one side of the street and a white man on the other behind new brooms pushing dirt aat the same rate. Any way that goes on in Philadelphia. POSTAL SERVICE The United States Postal Service employs large numbers of Negroes in the capacities of carriers, clerks and truck drivers. It is frequently a happy experience especially to see the huge speeding government trucks running through all sections of the city an alert man at the wheel.

IN CITY HALL In the last shore while, I have taken occasion to go through Philadelphia City Hall several times. Each time my own feelings vacillated from the high tides to the low ebs in seeing the Negro work in the very heart of political Philadelphia. In some offices he serves as a messenger, clear, that in his own mind he is more important than his own in shaking the plum and misjudged the size of his prize and has never taken time that fact.

PHILADELPHIA — Two socially prominent Philadelphiaans who filed suit recently in the Court of Common Pleas for divorce were: Harry Dawson against Mabel L. Dawson, and Moses Thompson against Nettie Thompson. Mr. Dawson is a public school teacher. A statement in last week's AFRO that Elijah Brown, wanted in connection with striking a young woman, lived at 1647 E. Monument street, was incorrect, according to occupants of that house. Although a family by the name of Brown lives in the home of the woman he was related to Elijah Brown, it is affirmed. A CORRECTION THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, JULY 21, 1928 COMMON PEOPLE MY FRIENDS-DEPRIEST One With Washerwomen and Street Cleaners Says Candidate For Congress HARD ON "DICTIES" Dixie Jim Crow Also Draws Fire Of Chicagoan PHILADELPHIA—The Quaker City Hall, B. P. O. E. W. tendered a public banquet on Saturday night, July 14, in honor of Oscar DePriest, Chicago candidate for Congress. The guest of honor delivered a short fiery speech discussing some problems and conditions in Chicago among Negroes and later striking a few among Philadelphia Negroes in the line of organization and getting power and positions for themselves. "When the bon tons were in their cellars (in the Chicago Riot) the 'hoodlums' were on the Hindenburg Line. If they are what they call African Americans that we had many of them." Washerwoman "My friends of Chicago are among the washerwomen, street cleaners and others of the common people. I have gotten my support from them and I am them." DePriest put his foot hard down on the "dicties": He was equally bitter in denouncing the South nad southern practices brought North. I don't like any place specific to accommodations that might be made for me. More than a hundred guests loudly applauded DePriest in his attacks upon the practic of jim club schools in Philadelphia. Negroes suffragette organizations People who will not fight their own battles for their rights should not have them." Charles H. Brooks served as toastmaster in the banquet. Dr. Frank P. Bishop H. D., is Exalted Ruler of Odore. Short Speeches Several persons were called on to make short speeches. In spite of frequent reminders from the toastmaster, most of the speeches discussed politics—the need for more aggressiveness in attacking such evils as the separate schools and bringing larger opportunity to the racial group in the city. Magistrate Edward W. Henry, Exalted Ruler Bishop, Mrs. Minnetta Bobson, John Marquess, Mrs. Edward Dickerson, Clarence Whyte, Tanner G. Duckrey (Public School Principal) Attorney Eugene W. Rhodes, H. Reynolds, Dr. Charles A. Lewis, and Mrs. New York Rockefeller Dunbar Apartments, were among the speakers. On Sunday, the Quaker City Lodge conducted a nEducational Rally with Oscar DePriest as principal speaker. MRS. NELSON AT WORK IN "PEACE" OFFICE "Afro" Reporter Gets Interview At Building On 12th St. Monday By WALTER L. REEVES, Jr. PHILADELPHIA. — Mrs. Alice Dunlane Nelson, recently appointed executive secretary of the American Interracial Peace Committee, with offices at 20 South Twelfth street, in the heart of the Quaker City, was just returning from lunch Friday afternoon when I called for an interview. Mrs. Nelson, who is also a widely known newspaper writer and formerly a school teacher at Vilmington, Del., appeared highly elated in her new role and immediately drew me into a conversation about peace for the nation. Although her position was not among Norwegians she feels that peace should be the slogan of all peoples. On a little pamphlet she gave me were some of the things in which the Peace committee proposes: It seeks for the Negro the open door of fraternal co-operation with all those agencies — industrial, social, religious and political — devoted to the cause of the nation and to the world those talents and accomplishments of Negroes that may serve the cause of peace. It teaches the fundamental equality of all races. Secretary Of Peace Section Leaving Mrs. Nelson, I was introduced to Ray Newton, white, secretary of the Peace section, the National organization of the Negroes in the room. He informed me that the idea of the Quaker peace movement, as it known in this section, was to help the Negro to think through the channels of Peace and not War. To also create public opinion which might result in the moral condemnation of War. According to Mr. Newton, the association has ten white teams in the field and one colored. The latter is composed of Richard H. Hill, a native of Baltimore, and Malcom G. Dade of New Bedford, Mass., both recent graduates of Lincoln University. The men are to work in Missouri, Indiana and Illinois giving lectures and making courses to cover period of ten weeks. At Lincoln Hill and Dade were members of the varsity debating team and were active in social work throughout their college career. Philly Pen Points BLACK AND WHITE BEAUTY BLEACH By "PEGY" All the way from Chicago came the distinguished looking Oscar De- Priest, candidate for the U. S. Congre- s, to be "bank-wetted" by the O. V.

I was in the Flea Fitz Pit, the corner of Rue Figale and the Laupyrues, when the Flea Pit is the rendezvous of a heavyweight champion, caught up to me. physical. "What instrument do you play?" he demanded, pleasantly. "Oh," he replied, looking him over "I play what Lord Byron called the mighty instrument of little men," the goose-quill, in his day better known as a type-writer." COLORED MUSICIANS SCARCE "Oh," said he. "I thought you band you to take the sea-side and I colored musicians." "But," said I. "I understood there already. Not half enough.

"But," said I, "I understood there were too many Negro musicians here already." "Not half enough. The people in Europe are just just beginning to get really interested in jazz. And only the old folk play real jazz." **COOKS AND PLAYS** I had heard of Wellman in several of the European cities I had visited. He and Mrs. Wellman were in Rotterdam, where I wrote an article about him and Mrs. Wellman. "Well," said he, "come by my home tomorrow, and I will cook a dinner for you, myself. A reporter is like a preacher, to get the attention of the people." Once at the American Legation at Budapest, I cooked a regular American dinner for the Consul-General, Maryland fried chicken, hot biscuits, apple pie, etc. I served it myself, and then I sat down in my cook's cap and played for his guests and they would not believe that I was who had cooked the AMERICAN DINNER Visiting him the next day I found that he was not boasting either about his musical or his culinary skill. After a regular American dinner, he showed me innumerable books filled with press reports from dozens and dozens of countries all over the world. He has played at numerous of every country in Europe, except Russia, and I saw that he has appalled with most of the leading vaucelle actors, among them Sir Harryauen. PLAYED BEFORE KINGS He has appeared before almost every monarch in Europe, and played often for the private parties of the late King Edward, the Prince of Wales and the Duke of York. I forgot to say that he is a bandmaster, a marvel on the drum, a composer, master of syncapation and opera, played lightning change artist, and a comedian. He told me that he was once understudy of Bert Williams, and appeared once in his role deceiving even STARS FROM PASHA He showed me a great star of gold and silver such as generals and admirals wear, that had been given him by the Pasha of Constanthenopolis, and letters from great men, the Punjabian, the Qajar, the Blue Danube and the Merry Widpiece.

He was from Will Marion Cook. With at the time in Vienna was Abby Mitchell, Miss King Rivers, and Buddy Glmore, all of whom he speaks of with high praise.

ENGLISH OFFERED $250 I spent more than two hours looking over some of the articles, posters, and programs. I saw among other things that English theatre and newspapers had offered a prize of $250 to any composer to write down a work by Ashison's Royal Agency, Sir Edward Moss, and Alfred Buts, Esq; that he was musical director for the white American Y.

Mix and His Congregation Lip Kiss Taught African Girls By Europeans But Charles Royer's New Book La Maitresse Noire Is Designed To Prove That Colored Women Are More Voluptuous Than White By JAMES WYK As Mr. J. A. Rogers has reviewed M. Louis-Charles Royer's LA MATTRESSE NOIRE, I shall content myself with a short explanation of the reason given by M. Royer for the peculiar fascination which black girls exercise over white Frenchmen. Here is the question as put by the publisher's blurb: "Is the black woman more than white?" which it proceeds to answer in the following words: "Re凝胶 believed it; this book proves it." We are thus confronted with the thesis of the book even before we open it: That black women are more voluptuous than white women. The great French poet Charles Baudelaire is dragged in as a witness because he too had a black mistress. She belonged to the race race but she was not black in color, and neither was she from Africa, but from Santo France, and in France as LA VENUS (the black venus) and her name was Jeanne Duval. SPOKE THREE LINES Baudelaire saw her for the first time on the stage of the Theatre du Pantheon. She had a part in which she spoke about three lines. Annie three lines were intertwined. Annie was the one willing to help. Porche puts it, "Jeanne entered his life never to leave it." Although she treated him like a dog, he stuck by her through thick and thin, through illness and health, and made sure that "Baudelaire believed it," that a black woman is more voluptuous than the white. Baudelaire saw her for the first time at Pantheon. She had a part in which three lines were enough to make Badaire a woman, but not a girl. Although she treated him like a end thin, through illness and health, spired by her. This is why she spied that a black woman is more voluptuous.

Royer bases his proof that black women are more amorous than white women. This can be done quite easily by an examination of the story and the downfall of its central character, Count Peter de Coussan. Who is this man Coussan? . . . the grounds on which more amorous than white and more beautiful de Coussan. Who is this may call an average Fren is mistress, on occasion, this mother tory to the governor, K w with Negroes is at Da woman and finds her sk Coussaan is what one may call an average Frenchmen of noble birth and between the races and his mistress, Vonon. He knows little about Negroes and his mother, the Frenchwoman, the Upper-Senegal as secretary to the governor, Kervelen. He goes out and his first physical contact with Negroes is at Dakar, where he accidentally orrushes against a black woman and finds her skin cold and clammy and her odor horrible. TOO FAT He admires the fine physical appearance of the men but thinks the women too fat. On May the 13th, h writes in his book *The Duty of Negroes* that this fatness is wicked. The Wolofs and Tauregs make as strenuous efforts to increase their size as the Parisian woman does to decrease hers." So far he sees nothing admirable in these black women. His most distinctive sensation when he interacts with them is their offensive odor and what he concludes to be their grotesque usfulness. physical appearance of the 13th, h writes in his nous, h apppears in his mouth as stromon an does to decrease her women. His most disti disguise their offensive nous. THE NEGRO ODOR And here is our first explanation of black voluptuousness: the Negro odor, so-called. Which in reality is the odor of all unwashed races, be they white, black, or red. To clear up this factor necessitates a brief excursion into the field of sexual psychology. And here is our first explanation odor, so-called. Which in reality is the white, black, or red. To clear up this into a question, we need to tell scientists tell up that cera physical deformities, can, and very of the German, Tianbok, has a skin color that is white, black, or colors of the white and black and the tant part in Negro-white attraction, with a certain skin color, acting at first red, then black, then irresible, e.g., that first cresus Goussan t explanation of black varnish is the odor in the light and clear up this factor need not that certain colors, coke, and very often do, act. Bloch, has a hardened wrist, and the black and the so-called N attraction. That is, acting at first as a deterent, hristible, especially to These scientists tell up that certain colors, certain odors, and certain physical deficiencies, can, and very often do, act as sexual fetishism. The German, Iwan Bloch, has already written on racial fetishism in its relation to the Negro, and thinks that the sharp contrast in the colors of the white and black and the so-called Negro is important part of the fetishism. The German, Iwan Bloch, describes a particular odor, coupled with a certain skin color, setting at first as a deterrent, ends up by furnishing an attraction wellnigh irresistible, especially to certain individuals. This is what first gets Coussan. HORRIFIED AT FIRST Royer shows that Coussan is horrified at first of the very idea of making love to a black woman, because of her odor primarily, and secondarily because of her imagined uginess. He was far from pleased when introduced him to Coussan, and he was so displeased despite Kervé's kindness that he was slow to concede her good points. Moussos were probably superior lovers to white women in the Governor's opinion but not in Count de Coussan's. He was not conceived, not yet, anyway; that remained for a latter date. That happened on a Niger steamer, and helped of Bresse. Bresse had two moussos, and asked and asked her to tell him what he telling him that "Doudou is more amorous." Robert de Coussan chose Doudou. This was the first time he loved a black woman and he no longer felt the physical repugnance which had seized him at Dakar the first time he came in contact with the cold skin of the Negress." He possessed her more out of curiosity than desire." Royer shows that Coussan is horrified love to a black woman, because of his introduction him to his mistress (mouser's fulsome praise he was slow to coprobably superior lovers to white women). He introduced him to the mistress again, maintained for a latter date. That happy help of Bresse. Bresse had two moussan to pick the one he wanted, moreover, to pick a black woman and no longer had seized him at Dakar the first time skin of the Negress. "He possessed him.

Then M. Royer glives scene after scene in which this odor plays an important part. But they do not mention the American consumption. DIDN'T KNOW LIP KISS The second factor emphasized by the author is the one of sexual naivleness. These black girls, for an instance, know nothing of the lip kiss until taught by the whites. And they give themselves to their masters with the eager curiosity of children. Obedient, worthy things, taking their masters' guild, quiver and menace. Coussan has Vonvon in Bamako with him and his moussie, Mouk, never objects, although he now refuses to associate with her except in secret for fear of the reaction of this white woman. But she never complains, she accepts it all good naturally, and when he takes a kind love Mouk. This quality of subservience naturally flatters a man's especially after he has spent a lifetime in Paris with its scheming grisettes. WHAT IS BEAUTY? The third and last reason adduced by the author is the one of beauty. When white men first enter Africa they have a tendency to judge native women by European esthetic standards and find, quite naturally, that they are ugly. But this view is short lived. Six months, or even three, serve to impress upon their minds the fact that there are as many beauties among white women as their own. The count de Coussan went through this experience. The third and last reason adduced the women first men enter Africa the women by European esthetic standards are ugly. But this view is short lived because their minds the face among these women as their own. G same experience.

He, too, thought they were too sweet, and only six months in Bamako for him to note that in comparison with his mousso, Mokhe was sallow and ugly. NO WHITE BEAUTY IN TROFICS Under the broiling tropic sun a white skin has no beauty at all in comparison with the skin tints of the darker races. It seems so yellow and white in place.

Again she'll be saying 'Bouth, Cawnt', Daw, underscorn, etc. Maybe. That would be rather unique, wouldn't it? She should run across Harry Kelly's friends, he's there Hugh Doram radios from Montreal Canada that he is doing nicely and that he can take care of him.

Johnson, grand potentate of the order of Omar, who was dressed as a shile and riding a mule was carved into the shape of a parade by the mule who started for home on turning a familiar corner. After much coaxing the mule resumed its place in the line, but held up the parade for ten minutes. The second incident occurred during public session Tuesday morning.

Brown Heads The Ladies Auxiliary Of The National Medical Association Which Meets Here In August 13th.—Mrs. Thomas R. Smith And Mrs. Blanche Curry Of Wahington, To Spend Summer In Europe.—Warm Summer Days Rushing Vacation Arrangements. Pansy. old dear. I tell you these sudden warm summer days are rushing vacation arrangements in fine order. The old belief that distant hills are always the best, is winning for the railroads and steamship lines, plenty of business everywhere. The National Medical Association, which meets here during the week of August 13th, is bringing folks from all parts of the country, and I mean, the doctors and their wives are turning their homes up side down and making all kinds of elaborate plans, in the way of entertainment for their fellowmen, their wives and their guests. For instance, dearle. take note of this.—On Tuesday, August the 14th, a reception will be given at Elks Hall, from 2 to 4, by the Ladies' Auxiliary—for the purpose of getting acquainted. In the evening of the same day, a smoker for the men will be given at the New Albert Auditorium. Then on Wednesday, from 6, a card party and luncheon will be given at Odd Fellows Hall for the visiting doctors' wives. In the evening of the same day, from 10 p.m. until 2 a. m., the inter-Praternal and Sorority dance of the Medical Association will be given at the New Albert. Thursday evening there will be an outing at Wonderland Park. Now don't hold your breath, for there is more to come yet—Priests evening, Wednesday, Regiment Armory, and last but not least, on Saturday morning, there will be a saint, a ship, a trip to the sun, a Sunday, that will not be moving homeward, will stay in their rooms all day, for the rest of the week. So all of you who hope to get a bid, better get your pretty things in the dresses, there will be a lot of letting visitors see anything on them when it comes to wearing good clothes. Brown was elected president by 77 votes out of 28, to head the Ladies' auxiliary. There was another, Fisher, 2nd vice president; Mrs. J. C. Stewart, 3rd vice president; Jackson, assistant secretary; Mrs. William Carr, treasurer. Mr. William Wright is chairman of the Roe is chairman of the ladies' reception committee; Mrs. George L. Hall, chairman of the Roe is chairman of the ladies' reception committee; Mrs. G. H. Buchanan, chairman of the chairmen of ways and means committee; Mrs. G. H. Buchanan, chairman of the chairmen of ways and means committee; and, oh, yes, Mrs. John R. Coasey, chairman of the registration and inform For the men folks, Dr. J. C. Stewart is president: Dr. Herdon White, is vice president; Dr. Bernard Harris, recording secretary: Dr. B. P. Brown, assistant recording secretary, and Dr. R. L. Jackson is the treasurer. Dr. Reid and Dr. Allen, I know, are holding offices. Mrs. Smith's Trip Abroad Did you hear about Jessie Smith and her friend, Blanch Curry, from D. C., who are planning a trip abroad, where they are going to explore the lovely old villages and rivers of Italy—the beautiful countryside and historic treasurers of England, the quaintness of French peasant life and Paris—and the Alps, lakes and gorgeous sceneries of Switzerland, plus many other picturesque spots peculiar to Europe? They are anticipating starting on August 17th and returning about the middle of October. Camp At Pine Bluff Yes, I heard, too, grille, that Jean Pace and Desandra Thomas, together with eight for the Reserve, gift camp, left on the marmor for the Wolf Camp, at highland Beach, for a week. I heard, too, that quite a number of Damon Johnson is listed for that camp during the summer. Highland Beach Second Stilfland Beach, old top, was just humming. Baltimore and Washington over the Fourth, I was told. Those who were not occupying the city, registered as "Flog's Angels." This, dearie, is no more than could be expected when you recall that Highland Beach is just a stone's throw from town and a great deal more economical. Of course, the Medical Association is keeping lots of folks from going any great distance. Odell Watkins Out West I knew I had missed Odell Watkins driving her goodlooking brown car on the avenue, and, no wonder, why she is spending the summer in Chicago, St. Louis and Denver, Colo., as the guest of Mrs. Annie E. Malone, of Poro College. Is William Hill Engaged To Nice Anderson Look here, Pany, something has got to happen. He's a man of the truth. Why, he surely has got it bad. The lady in question is Miss Lillian Anantha Pany, a graduate of Pennsylvania. He coems right out and admits, they tell me, that he is certainly not a student. Why, if lady jiffy she will say the word. The only thing that puzzles us is, why Billy Riley has not been able to get a job, but still stays in Baltimore. Can it be that the trains and autos have stopped moving? Or can she just move to mude her down to his dad's summer home in Peterville, Md., and let us all go to the train station? And rumor is going around also that Vashi Smith has landed a promise from her husband, University, Dau. Know whether she has received her diamond or not. LAFAYETTE SHOW FOR WOMEN ONLY The Men, However, Will Have Day To See "The Naked Truth" On Screen "For Women Only" will be the inscription hung here today, and the second day of next week when "The Naked Truth," an expose of vice and social diseases, is shown.

BACHARACHS AND SOX DIVIDE BILL WILSON IS SPIKED In a somewhat slow game enlivened here and by spots of brilliant playing, the coach Sox divided a double-handed with the Bacharachs Giants by taking the first 5-3, and yielding the nightcap, 5-4, Sunday. Although there were one or two tense moments in the first game and some anxious ones in the second, the feature of the game was the pitching of Yokely, who or whooped occasion, or two at a tilted game out of several holes which looked threatening. Bold opened for the Bacharachs with a hit to right field and Cummings bunted, Yokely, pounced upon, and the assistance from Ben Taylor, pull off a fast double play which sent the batters back to the pit. Jenkins tapped out an inflictible throw to He ended the game when he was tagged but he attempted to steal second. With the Sox up, Holloway and Lindsay failed to connect with Farrel's fast ones and went to short order. Babe with Wilson sent a message to the center fence Wiles left on the base when they wiped Dixon at first. 4 Home Run The first chance the rooters had to yell came in the second, when after the visitors had been one-two-three for the Sox and Washington sphere over the left field fence. Then after Ben Talyor was struck by interfering and crossed the home plate when Yokely somewhat surprised the with a clean two-base, center, center, the last half of the third when, after Lindsay had been tagged at first and Wilson folded in an attempt second DiMichele and Ben Teller took the bases. Here Eggleson took advantage of his big chance field, sending across the home plate. Brown tagged at first. Errors Costly But for an error in the fourth, the Becharachs might have shut out in the back, and Reid hit liner down, between the short-stop and second, which Lindsay met but bumbed, thus missing a good for a double, which Jenkins made a filling to first. Jenkins singled the bases. Carr hit a clean one to right and three men crossed the home plate, and Jenkins fired the first. New Manager For Jack Thompson CHICAGO.

FEDS TOP TIGERS Pimlico Nine Crushed To Earth By 18-5 Verdict Uhering in the rivalry in the AKRO - AMERICAN Baseball League, the Highland Rangers took two games from the Wilson Park Giants at Wilson Park oval, Sunday, by the scores of 11-6 and 14-7, of the Highland Rangers handing the Pimlico Tigers an 18-5 drubbing at Drudu Hill Park. Free Hitting The Wilson Giants victors were free biting affairs, particularly the second game. The Rangers used two pitchers in each game while the Giants used two in the second game. The competition was the hitting of Thomas, of the Rangers, who connected for a home run in each of the games. Thomas also handled 19 chances in an eery. A. Scott also hit the horseside hard, garnering a double and a single in the second game. Jones, Davis and Eubanks were the heavy sluggers for the Giants. Featuring the Fed's trouncing of the Tigers was the hitting of the Williams brothers, Phil and W. Williams connecting for a home run. The Shields also starred at the bat, collecting three hits in four times up N. & W. STARS TAKE SERIES FROM GIANTS ROAONKE. Va.—Fresh from their 2 to 1 victory over the strong Wilmington Giants Saturday, the team won here Sunday, and split even in a twin bill with them losing the first game 5-3, but taking the nightcap by the a run scored by Jefferson in the first inning of the second game furnished the margin by which the Giants won. The game which was errorless, was featured by a pitching dual between Brown of the Giants, and Hill of the Stars, the former striking out 12 and the latter Bowman, who formerly played ball in Baltimore, and who in addition to playing in the outfield is secreting three times in four times up. So great was the interest in the series here that a request has been made to have the team play up here again on July 18, 19 and 20. The Stars, who play the Pennsy Giants here July 27, 28, 29, will leave Bonoma on July 30, of the state returning home July 18th. Manager J. A.

LOUIS GIANTS NO BOTHER TO LINCOLNS By THOMAS LURRY NEW YORK. — Rolling along easily to a 14-1 victory over the Giants, the team won the game, here Sunday, the Lincoln Giants, after receiving a good scare, managed to take the nightcap, 6-5, by pushing over a tally in the ninth. The locals had one big inning in the first game and they scored the third inning, scoring six runs. Here's how it happened. That Awful Third Winters and Grav had been retired and Lloyd beat out an infield hit by fast stepping. The Lincoln manager took a long lead off first base and quickly threw to the first baseman as Lloyd started for second. The initial sacker dropped the peg and "Pop" barely into the midway standing up. Rigins doubled, scoring Lloyd, and Scales抓ed a cafe hit into right field. The shortstop went off; on a theft expedition, stealing second and third as Mason walked. The visiting hurler was fast fading as Mason staked and scored a single center, scoring Scales and Mason. Augusta walked Rojo and then took a walk himself. Henderson coming up with pitching four wives opes to Arnold. Nip Wins Eleventh "Nip" Winters added the last two runs with a hard drive down the third base line. Scales, Mason and Lewis collected two hits each, while Winters won his eleventh straight, and Lloyd trapped a ball for play and placed it into a defensive team with a catch of a line drive for his second, two-nil killing. Second Is Thriller The second game was a thriller, first the visitors then the home club edgins ahead, and the eighth and won out in the ninth. Riggins opened the closing frame for the Bronxites with a double into the centerfield and the fourth in the outfield, walked, and Rolo singled. Riggins hugging third. Spearman hit a grounder to Clark which the second sacker booted and the fourth with the winning run. The eighth was certainly exciting. Lincoln tying the score at five all with two runs. The fourth held safely and Bector hit solidly into center. Newman wrestled with the ball, throw wild to third and Mason and Arnold went across the field.

THE PASSING REVIEW By BILL GIBSON WHEN BOOKS ARE BALANCED by eastern baseball club owners at the end of the season, we imagine a number of the mo- tions of the season being into the red. guns are going. They are so doubt that some of the Eastern clubs have been making money despite the absence of any organized body of baseball in the East. They are in the minority, however, everyone will agree, and the indigo song has already been heard in the land. The present season has, if nothing else, afforded an excellent opportunity for making a comparison. The DLS-organized baseball. Say what you will, the absence of legislative, executive and judiciary bodies in eastern baseball has worked the same as the absence of such bodies in the rest of the country. would require. There must be some controlling and final authority if the highest order and efficiency are to be maintained. Balance is what is sorely lacking and white protests may come and go there is nothing remedy the condition but a functioning organization to present baseball situation, viewed panoramically, presents a jagged outline, ups and downs, where a smooth and even outline should greet the eye, and where it should be. Ballard. And as we enter what nominally would be considered the second half of the season we find conditions for the majority anything but bright. And add to this the bad weather and you have to give the National League owners who have been singing 'em about their experience. But what's the use of chewing about it? Experience has been proverbially the greatest teacher in the world. Before the league had been organized there, none have been. But now that it has been organized we have a comparison. It will be interesting to hear the post-season comments and the opinions of owners as to whether or not they will want a league next season. NO, IT'S NOT GOURDIN, Stanley, my boy, but GORDON who is making the Olympic trip, and his name, like Gourdin's is Edward, and the team. Mr. Gordon, who claims Gary, Indiana, as his home has been introduced to you through our pages already and, he with DeHart Hubbard, is going to try to win the Olympic crown for there is a white goose and Gordon and Gary, who answers to the name of Hamm, who is going to make them fight for anything they get. Between these three and Alfred Bates, another white boy, the United States should gather the laurel in this event and defend them, we will take notice in this day and day long foats some years back, we lift the boat He failed to place among the first four. And don't forget the 440 flash from the Motor City. Mr. John Lewis, who is the only gentleman of color on the 1,600 metres relay team, and incidentally the only race representative in the track events. Lewis is the saying goes, probably because U. S. team being one of international events of the eliminations. Upon this trio of athletes rest the hopes of colored America, for say what you will about "our country" and that the team Negro in Nigeria is one of those in those boys, more so regardless of color, of course is the principle of sport, but just the same there is a tremendous interest in these boys because they "being" Lewis will not perform as an inline skating team. A LEWIS who has a strong ankle, will try to better the mark made at Cambridge, Mass, by Hamm, a mark of 25 feet, 11 1-8 inches, which now stands as the world record. While that mark betters Hubbard's record breaking leap of 25 feet, 10 7-8 inches, the boy has jumped, the jump of his ankle, with stiff compaction. Hubbard, may, in spite of his injured knee, extend himself to beat the new mark. Gordon has never, to this writer's knowledge, jumped 25 feet, so it is pretty safe to say that this event is this event, with conditions that might enter to place him to the fore. He and Hubbard are the only race athletes competing individually. It is certain that both will not be first. Hubbard is defending his OLYMPIC laurels and as we have only one chance for an Olympic champion this year he'll be on his toes at Amsterdam. Watch him! WATCH OUT FOR UPSETS, more than you have already had, in the first ranks of tennis this summer. We are training, and believe us, uneasy are some of the heads that wear the crown. A crop of youthful rocket wielders is growing up and some of the more seasoned players who have been contented to be just on the "ranking" list are unlumbering themselves and becoming almost vicious in their attack upon the Already some of the title holders have felt the sting of defeat and when the moth gathers at Bordentown there should be a day of fire because there certainly is a day of fire because all envious of those in charge of the arrangements for the tournament, for a job is theirs. We saw the play at Hampton and its attendant problems last summer and with the increasing interest we imagine what it is going to be at the Jersey town. And if everything goes well, we will be able to be a brand. The increasing popularity of tennis as evinced by the enthusiasm shown is a good thing, we believe. Only we wish more people attended to play tennis and not to socialize. Do you now want to be a part of the tournaments matches defaulted because players had a "big night" and did not get down to the courts on time. Look out, Bordentown. IT'S A PUZZLE TO US, this score sheet lying on the desk. As sent in to us there were nine innings played and 37 men were struck out by one of the pitchers. Counting both sides there were 46 batsmen hit by the pitchers. We could continue to enumerate, but we CONCERNING THE FISHING we promised to tell you about and if ever there was a truthful fisherman we insist that we are—we're disappointed. wasn't old Tom's fault, though, for the fish were there thunder and rain storms during a seven day period played havoc with chances of going fishing and when we did get to go the storm had worked its effect on the sea and they did not turn out to greet us night before. However, in Tom's language, we caught a "nice mess" of black spot, croaker and trout and a big eel—enough to pass around to the neighbors and to boast about. And then we were the toad fish and if you've caught them, you can tell all about. Maybe were an unusual fisherman, but not one got away. **G THE PUGILIENT PURSE** will be getting leaner and leaner for rage boxes if things continue to drift the way they are. Godfry's fusco marked the way for some time to come, but the "gawge" got any too well healed. They never do. What's happened to the Flowers-Terris brew that was postponed? Most of the other boys are trading punches for their coffee and cakes in the clubs and arenas scattered over.

We don't expect to see another menace soon and the powers that be are going to be pretty certain to see that menaces don't get to the point where they can on force them. We don't expect it to go far as will more likely be the case with the "Sunny Jim" Williams boom.

KANSAS CITY, Md.—The second half of the Negro National League got away to a flying start with the Chicago at St. Louis, 5 games, Memphis, taking five straight games from the Cubans. The St. Louis Stars, by trouncing the Detroit Stars in four out of five games, defeated the flying Giants, while Kansas City, by breaking even in four games with the Memphis Red Sox, went down to Birmingham for Black Barons four out of five games. CRUCIAL TEST This week will be a hard one for the two leaders, as Chicago goes to Detroit to play. The Barons will put them to the acid test, the St. Louis Stars are down south with a series of four games at Memphis and five games at Detroit, but not have a great deal of trouble with the Cleveland club. The second half is going to be a real contest between the Chicago, Detroit, St. Louis and Kansas TIGERS ARE DISTANT TO going to prove a stumbling block to some of the leaders before the second half is far on its way. The team will be playing good ball at home, will soon make the swing around the circuit and with such pitchers as Glass, Coyne or Bentley, behind the bat, they are going to cause certain clubs considerable trouble. BARONS OFF FORM The BARONS seem not to be able to hit their stride. They have about the same club that they had last year. They have several good players, Satchie, Satchie, Poundex, and Bardine.

Giants Rampant Take Two Games Sunday Lurry Answers Posey (By THOMAS LURRY) We noticed with much surprise in New York a few paragraphs printed in the last edition of a Pittsburgh paper stating that the book was used profane and ausive language to Umpire Seixas. Further, how could the Grays expect to win when two men carried on the field, intimidating the Chieftleh. Well, "Cum" Posey knows as well as we know that people acquainted with John Lloyd for twenty years never heard the language either on the field or off the field. As for George Scales, the aggressor, popper shortstop fights hard to win but beyond the bounds of propriety. Also the Lincoln Giant players, to a man, insist "Lap" Washington and Charley Beckwith were the best players in the day, so it doesn't look as if the venerable Posey wins that argument. Now, Lloyd and Scales and the Lincoln Giant players are going to prove with base hits their superiority in the next series, but are going down to Pittsburgh to show smoke town fans what a shelving they can give those Grass.

Salazar, Gary, Ind. pitcher, formerly of the Mexican League, who has recently been added to the Cuban staff, performed brilliantly in his first appearance on the mound for the Red Sox.

Cueria was signed in 2012 by Gomez Benetex and Margaró Gomez to the team at the start of the season. Pittsburgh fans were forced to sit up and take notice with the excepter, Isabella displayed by the Havana team, in baseball played in Pittsburgh; within a period of three days, Caledo left-handed the Clivus into submission, while his team scored seven safe wallops enough to win, scoring in the first and sixth frames.

CONTRACT MID-SUMMER REDUCTION—PRICES REDUCED WASHINGTON. — An indefinite contract as football coach at Hawkeye is to be subject to Freeport Mordecail Johnson and the Board of Trustees, tendered to Coach Hancock, was still accepted this week. The offer tendered Coach Watson was received in a letter from Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, an secretary of the Board of Trustees, and a coach Coach Watson would be retained as long as his services proved a satisfactory to President Johnson and the Board of Trustees. The coach contract expired at the end of the 1927 season. *Same As Other Profs.* This new offer, if accepted by Watson, will place him on a position with all the staff of the instructional staff, subject to the will of the President or the trustees, whereas he heretofore has been directly accountable to Board of Trustees, which body has handled all athletic matters. It was this body that early this year made it known that it approved another three-year co-office of Coach Watson to govern their approvals of the hands of President Johnson in February. The Howard president, however, is said to have been presentee to tendering Coach Watson for longer than a year, while the other averse to accepting such an offer. Echoes Of Strike The reason for President Johnson's refusal to approve a three-year contract for Watson is said to have its roots in the post-World War II era, and it has been reported that the administration has justified that the coach was not as active during the strike as he might have been in position, and that the administration struck amateurism in college athletics. Coach Watson who came to Howard in 1933 as director of the physical education department, was appointed to the position at Howard for four seasons and has made an amutable record. Fraternity politics, at the end of his first year as coach, caused him to be refused a career. Dr. McMurray now at Lincoln, replacing him in 1923 only to relinquish the post to Coach Watson in 1924, Watson being signed for three years. With the extension of last season, Howard's football record during Watson's season, has been a student servant, become when it became that an attempt was on foot to cust his coach, that several delegations of students were sent to the war, demanding his retention. Alumni opinion throughout many parts of the country is that on the basis of his past record, Howard was chosen. In Howard Alumnus Coach Watson, who came to Howard from Petersburg, is an alumnus of Howard and Watson, and was a collegiate athlete in track and football. Although he has just been notified the new contract was issued upon it early in June. At the same time, the contract was acted upon. President Johnson refused to grant Watson a $50 increase in pay for his coaching servant. No Decision Yet Approached on the matter, Coach Watson declined to comment other than to say that he was yet undecided what course he would follow. "Two And Too" Two colored nines were playing. The Ump was Preacher Brown: The inmins was the final. None on and two were down. The count was one nothing. For the outer side had scored: A row of oval ogee eggs. Was hung upon the board.

Va. — With one of the ranking national net players certain of entering, the W. Va. Open Tennis Tournament, to be staged at Bluefield Institute, July 26, 27, and 28, promises to be the biggest and best staged in the history of the association. Dr. E. D. Downing, ranked the second best player by the American Tennis Association, and as the fifth best player by the same association, have been staunch supporters of the West Virginia Tennis Association and have been invited to participate in the Tournament. Bluefield, West Virginia and Roanoke, Virginia, are fast becoming the top players in the tournament and around Roanoke we find such tennis stars as Hudlin, formerly of St. Louis; E. D. Downing, Cooke and around Miss Channels, and most of these eminent players have expressed their intentions of attending the tourney.

"Bananas" Robinson and his team hitts. Every rally attempted in the second game was cut short by lightning-double-plays. The fielding features of the game were the same as by Watts Jackson and "Puddin" Parker, Jackson and Parker took turns at robbing Padone, each spearing his grass-cutters, which looked like a young fighter, pulled the best folding stunt of the day when he came in hard to get Harry Gross Cooper behind first with one hand, and against the Young Men's Bohemian Club at Philadelphia road and 11th streets.

STEP AND JUMP-Wen Small's Cabaret Of Black-Y Small's Cabaret Meeting Place Of Black-Yellow-White New Drink Is Mixture Of Gin And "Snow"—Patrons Bring, Likker In Hip Flasks—Crowd Stays Until After Dawn. What an English white man from South Africa thinks of New York's black and white Cabaret. (From African World) The ebony arm of Africa stretches across half the world. It throws a long shadow. Something drops over you darkly in cities far from the beat of tom-toms and the song of the paddlers on tropical rivers. There is Africa more insistent than a memory of the East. When I watched the last mangrove vanishing, I thought the Congo estuary vanished, and I thought the paddlers bound. I thought that I had seen the end of black humanity for a time. But in Paris they were applauding a miliauto actress at the Follies. In London a black man held out his tins mug as he tapped his way along the pavement. And in New York found the largest Negro city in the world. Harlem is there another is another, a million blacks and golden browns, yellows, and almost whites in this section of New York, all the Negro types of the world are represented. South America has sent Spanish and Portuguese-speaking Negroes. Many know nothing but French. Thousands from the British West Indies. There is a black skinned, black-knitted, Abyssinian sect who speak Hebrew among themselves and worship in a tiny synagogue. Harlem, however, draws an overwhelming number of its teeming, population from below the Mason-Dixon line; from those Southern States of jazz and cotton fame where the Ku-Klux-Klan is making life unhappy. The soft accents of Virginia have been heard in every corner of New York's "black belt." Each morning the subways are crammed with Negroes bound for the wharves and giant hotels and skyscrapers "down town." As dock workers, elevator operators, in factory floors, and in the thousands black musicians to amuse while New York. You might form the opinion that these energetic Negroes were really Americans, that the last link between them and Africa had been snapped. To reach below the surface, to see how jungle instinct survives, you must visit Harlem by night. In the cabarres you will see the real. "Smalls Paradise" does not lurk behind barred doors and secret signs. The entrance is marked with blazing electrics, and is guarded by a doorkeeper muscular enough to confirm the rumour that the once-famous Jack Johnson now carls living there. It was midnight, and "Smalls" beckoning to the exotic crowd that fills the place until after dawn every My companion, a South African who had lived in New York for several years, passed down the crooked stairs. In the curtained hallway we came under the scrutiny of the police, explained by friend; and we passed into the flickering coloured lights of the "Paradise". The low-roofed hall throbbed with the rhythm of a superb jazz orchestra. Brass rails surrounded the dancing girls, who were small, sleek, shimmery "Smalls" were never brilliant for long. Sometimes they shone green, like the dim radiance of the African forest. or red, like the fire when the natives are driving game on distant hills. or intense yellow, concentrated on a palpitating dancer, as the sun falls on the fronzed face of the sea. The menu sait! Our waiter held out the pink card which informed us that ginger ale cost a dollar a bottle. Dubious entertainment is usually expensive. "Very stronger—beer or wine?" I asked. "Very sorry, sait! We don't carry that stuff any more. We like to please our patrons, but the police—" FLASK Other patrons, were carrying it. They arrived with bulging pockets and set out their bottles of gin and rye-wiskey open. We had to order ginger ale. "Wise guys come here with something on the hip," advised the waiter, the whirpool of melody broke again and we danced with the dancers. They were like the phantom people of a nightmare. At first the scene was blurred. red frocks, golden frocks, diamond garters all blurred in the spotlights. It all come sharp at last—each couple swaying and stamping to the voluptuous saxophones and drums. Every shade of colour in the arms of every other shade. **GIN—SNOW** "Cigarettes, cigars, chewing gum, sah!" The girl passed on with her trav. Many little paper packets, were coded in "Small" that night. Not much, but enough Snow. There is a mixture for you—and it explained. It explained much of what we saw later. One o'clock, dancers trailing off the floor, and all set for the "Paradise" show. Slap and loop the band, and the dancers step on the floor to the orchestra. Coloured dancing girls high stepping Brown skins a ghostly violet under the arc lamps. A gorilla man, arms swinging below is knee twisting and shivering like an epic medical procedure. "Do-do-do-o-o-o-" urged the saxophones. "Tap-tap-tap-a-a-ap!" came the drum notes. Sounds that you might hear along a lonely Congo backwater and not be certain whether men or animals were gathered in the blackness of the trees. NO RESTRAINT Before the show there had been little restraint; now there was none. Quartz of gin were gulped hastily. The jazz band awoke in a wild roar. Men dragged women on the dance floor. The crowd was chanting. Harlem faces I had seen in the daylight. A Chinaman with his mask offi starring lasciously into the eyes of an Eton cropped black woman. A tall and powerful Negro clasping a girl of pure European blood. She called him "Kid" and my friend Sallow tred young women. Coloured girls hugged close to them in evening dress and a Negress sheathed in green half white. but it is still essentially the cabaret of the Negro. And it is not all depravity. Genius has blossomed in places like Small—famous players like Layton and Johnstone and Florence Mead knew that before Europe knew them; sung and crooned those sad spirituals that were Supper was being served when a girl stepped on the floor to sing—a tall, slim colour hall seemed to rock with the applause. Then she sang; As we listened we forgot our food. One day, London and Paris will hear that girl. I left when the song was over, and sailed for South Africa a few days afterwards. Out in the wide spaces of the lonely island sometimes I saw the sailor and sad that it might have heard the sorrows of the Negro race.

CIN-SNOW Summary of Friday 120 Pounds Class Junior Unlimited Class --- Local Barbers Differ On Anti-Tipping Resolutions William H. Minor, manager of the Hairdome at 1228 Pennsylvania avenue, said that for the barber to try wiggle a tip out of every customer, he should make "service" his motto and give it regardless of whether he receives a tip or not. **Favor Action** John W. Miller, owner of "My Barber W. Miller," business office, declares that he was in favor of any action that would put the barbering profession on a higher plane, and he feels that the abolishment of tipping would he toward that end. James J. O'Neill of the Athletes Barber Shop, 912 Drudg Hill avenue, expressed the same opinion, declaring that tipping put the profession in the mental class and is one of the many trades, anything to elevate it would be welcomed. **All Right For Owners** The resolution, declared Mr. Ford, 915 Drudg Hill avenue, is all right for shop owners but not for shop owners who did enough work to insure a man sufficient income on the percentage basis.

To one is attached a deed in Surry, Va., which was built in the year 1633 by Thomas Volle, the son of Pocahontas, over years or more ago, the owner found himself greatly encumbered, and it was at this crucial time he sought refuge in the National Benefit Society to this rescue, and off the mortgage of eight thousand and dollars ($8,000) and thus saved him from a great calamity and protected his property from deeds of property and happiness. Very recently, Mr. Bolden negotiated with Dr. W. A. R. Goodwin, director of Restoration work, representing one of the world's greatest financiers and philanthropists. Mr John D. Rockefeller, and succeeded in disposing of 20 acres of land which sets in the Pollock River, which is maintained as a Historic Shrine. From this transaction, the owner was able to pay back the debt to the Deed. He still has to his credit a splendid cash balance, besides 369 acres of land and a good house in which to live, which he has sung his praises as his great defense and his strong deliverer: hence in the recapitulation of the Order, this one outstanding act represents the broad and broadest heart of his founder. it can be pointed to with great pride.

By 'PEACHES' FORRESTER CHAPTER III "I knew you'd come." He squeezed me a bit tighter. "I've been watching for you anxiously." My blood was racing through me and pounding at my temples. He kissed my cheek as we swung around me. "It was wrong — my coming." I said. "We have no right...." He crushed my face into the hollow of his shoulder by way of breaking me off. "Don't remind me of her that way, I knew the torture I've been through! Oh. it's terrible. It has cost me more than I ever thought it could." "Why don't you leave her, John?" I was feeling sorry for what he must have had to endure. How well I knew what it was it had to mired to one! "Ah, Dan was more fine than Jane ever could be. The thought of Dan made me confess and then to John that I The thought of Dan made me confess then and there to John that I cared. He did not seem surprised, and I could hardly understand his strange attitude. What's the difference? he said, "Why, we can have money and love both, Peaches. Jane will never know, nor 'our husband.'" I drew back in shame and hurt. The idea of deceiving my husband in such a manner was intolerable. "Why don't you get a divorce?" I demanded at last. "Dan would free me if he knew it would make me happy." I can't. Even if I could get a divorce, I couldn't support us. You see, honey. I didn't go back to school at all. Life was so easy with all her money."... he hesitated at the look of scorn I gave him. "I mean she wouldn't let me, honey. Said there wasn't any use in working—she had plenty of money for both of us. John turned the subject, whispering, "Just think how lovely it would be if we could go on like this forever, gliding about to music. I've just got to have you. There's no use living without you." "You could have had me." I replied, "You've made me suffer enough without making it harder for me to be a good wife. Do you love him?" "I don't know—Oh, no John; I don't, but I wish that I did, he's so good and kind." "Then why worry about him," he hurried on; "We are entitled to our happiness." "I could never treat Dan so treacheryously as that. John. He has been too good to me." "Nobody's so conventional now," he whispered. I know that I couldn't hold out forever against this man who had held my heart even while away for three years. "You know that — you are the only one I can ever love," he pleaded. "The only way I can put up with Jane is to keep your sweet face in my mind. It's you I love when she takes it kiss her. You are the object on my neck. I understand that she is so. You can't understand how I have suffered..." "Oh, John, I do," I was looking into his eyes now. I was no longer afraid. "I have never changed. I've always been yours. I love you and I am." "I couldn't understand what had come over John. His face took on a look of horror and he was shaking like a leaf. I turned around and saw in the doorway a dissipated woman. It was Jane—his wife. "Oh, there you are, ch?" she simmered, swaying toward us. "How's my little boy?" she looked at me frowning, trying to focus her gaze on my face. " suddenly she straightened " "So, it that Peaches girl is? It? You miserable hypo. hypo, hypocrit, you! Come here!" John cringed toward her. "It's all right. Jane, just having a little dance. I've been looking everywhere for suddenly the mist fell away from my eyes. No longer was John the prince of my dreams. An old woman's slave...living in the luxury she had traded for his soul. I turned and ran blindly out of the dance hall, and into the cool night air. Sobbing. I hurried along until canceled and dropped there, spent and weary. I knew that my love for John had lasted only because it had been made to fit my girlhood dreams. My illusions had blinded me, made me gloss over his weakness. And now I had seen him as the pitiful, loathsome being as a man, and touched my shoulder gently, and I looked up with a tear-streaked face. Dan was bending over me. "I've been looking for you, Peaches," he said softly. "to tell you that you don't need to be unhappy any more. I'm going away. Everything is fixed so that you'll be all right, and I'll send money to you to work. I thought I could make you care, but I guess I was wrong." He was having a hard time keeping his composure. It hurt me to have him that way. I pulled his head down and smothered it with kissed, as I had never done before. I was just waking up to real love. Before. I had had the dramatic love of the novels I had so eagerly consumed as a child. "You must hard to leave," he continued. "You see dear, no matter whether you love me or not, no matter what happens. I shall always love and cherish you in my heart. I knew it the day I saw you." Eastern Sho'Aint Country Says Maybelle Chew Trains On Time—Some Without Jim Crow—Princess Anne Real And Restful—School Has Dietitian And Architect—Camp Meeting Quiet. PRINCESS ANNE Md., (By May. belle Chew) — Life is lovely, nice "Down on the Sho' Loo, Loo, lazy days. Cool quiet nights, good books, good friends, good food, kindness and comfort. Enough in truth for anyone. A tiny steamer brought me down part of the way, ambling leisurely along in a morning all blue and gold. The air, however, is so thick. We are welcome. Not even the feeble attempt at Jim-Crowing could mar such a deal. folks here? I picked up "Velled macrocats" from my hostess' library table. It seemed to me that name suits them best. Here in this place have dedicated their lives, their education, their culture to the training of the youth of the rural districts, and right worthily do they carry on. When I think of dozens of folks in the city teachin' in the best of conditions with no mind for anything but the pay check. I tingle mar Love Point A tiny wharf at Love Point, which merged surprisingly into a railway station, where greatest surprise of all, a real train awitted us. Visions of which race pumped us justly, vehicle of which race pumped us half, faded before a whole clean coach for the colored. The road has been acquired by the Pennsy and even their second or third best coaches are "De Luxe" to those former us- Train On Time The train goes along at a right good clip, stopping often but briefly. We are now five in the colored coach and occupy several seats with our belongings. Miracle upon miracle is happening. The train reaches Salisbury on time! Salisbury is a real city, if you please. Two enterprising colored taxi-drivers and about four white stalinks have a rainy ticket in a real baggage room. The train for Princess Anne is late. Just fifteen minutes. It arrives from Philadelphia. No Jim-Crow. Princess Anne Princess Anne is a town if you please. Not a village. We go "thru" in the car for we are going to the Academy. The Academy is delightful. One had not expected such spaciousness, such wide, rolling lawns, well-cared-for hedges, stately trees, tennils of trees. Then the Professor Kiah has an enormous brick mansion. I learned later that it housed eleven young Kiahs, so I suppose he had need of all its room. Several new, modern brick school buildings, some substantial, well-furnished houses, homes of some of the faculty. Off The Campus We live just off the campus. The three-hundred acre farm stretches all around us. Stately Guernseys chew placidly. No canned milk here. Just below us the chicken farm, kept by Prof. and Mrs. Clark. Mrs. Clark, young, beautiful, charming. Junior, lively and bright-eyed. Across from us the garden (a young farm to me). The wheat has been cut in the east field. The grass (hay it is—alfalfa at that) in the west field. It scents the air. One draws dew breaths. There is no ugly odor. One trusts all of one's lungs to its pungent sweetness. For three days the longest journey I made was from table to porch or porch to bed. Aristocrats How shall I tell you about these "You were unhappy and it hurt me. I never knew what the trouble was, but I didn't want to ask you. I only knew and know that you are who can even ever matter to me. It will be the same even after I leave." "But I don't want you to go." I managed to whisper. "I love you, too. I didn't know it till tonight, but it's true dear, and want you to show you. I met my old sweetheart tonight and he showed me what a fine man you are. Dan." I went on to tell him all about the past that had been such a mystery to him. I confessed going to (on the train) with John. He took me in his arms and I oned my heart and mind to him, and before we realized it, it was nearly dawn. — the clear clean dawn of a new era for us. Of course, that didn't go away. That is, the winter came. Then we had the best moonwown ever, and came back to the little cottage that was home to both of us. We have been very happy, and now we have a little tike that plays with me. And that his daddy fixed for film. And I know that I did not, after all, marry the wrong man. THE END THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, JULY 21, 1928 folks here? I picked up "Veiled Aristocratse" from my hostess' library table, and it seemed to me that name suits them best. Here in this place they have dedi- cated their lives, their education, the culture to the training of the youth of the rural districts, and rightworthily do they carry on, then think dozens of folks in the city schism in the folk conditions with no mind for anything but the pay check. I tingle with shame for them. Model Homes Every home here is a model. A silent teacher of sanitation, cleanliness and beauty. Well-screened carefully disinfected grounds, neat and flowers in every nook and corner. Indoors, one doesn't realize this isurn. The video keeps in touch with the world. The latest music is on the Victoria also. Good books are read and discussed. A delightful change from home where one is regarded as eccentric if one brings up a serious subject. These folks are models. The children of my hostess, delightfully courteous, dressed every afternoon. Courteous and kindly, dressed with a whine. Everything is done in a model way. And there is no posing about it, either. Horticulture The horticulturist who is brother to Dr. Herndon White, has a charming home and garden. White people drive over to see him and consult him. This is the Eastern Branch of the University of Maryland. The ows, the chickens, everywhere here is pedigreed and up to the highest standard The Chef The chef is a Professor Clemons, A. B, the University of Illinois, A dietitian. It seems like gliding the illy. The food travels a scant quarter mile from field to table. We, who get it of doubtful age and quality, know no dietitian. Could you see Mr. Corderys home in town? You would know he is an instructor. He the last word in convenience and health. Corderys is a native and teacher in the Princess Anne public school. They are both simplicity and geniality personified. The School Bachelor Prof. Mansfield, the school bachelor, is coach and and science teacher, jovial, charming good company, Uncle. Prof. Pinkett teaches mathematics His son, my host, teaches printing. Most of the other folks are away. I have met Prof. Smith, also agriculturist. In Town We go to town. Wonderful old Colonial houses. Quiet shady streets. The drug store is thoroughly modern. I believe there are two. There is a traffic light in the center of town—a real automatic one. More charming homes owned by our people. Neat, clean, well-painted, screened. The Academy has not lived vain. There is a race doctor. Young, genial, efficient, well-liked. Dr. Marksmans. His office the last word in equipment. His recreation a wonderful garden. With no one to eat his lettuce it has grown two feet high. I didn't know lettuce did that. The Academy is an M. E. School. We go to the M. E. Church. The pastor is Rev. Scott. His daughter is Rev. Scott, Mrs. Eva Scott Gordon. Quiet Campmeeting The A. M. E. Church is having camp meeting over in a little settlement called Greenwood. We stroll over past the public school. There is a high school. In all. I learn there are over three hundred children. Camp is quiet. Preaching is on go. No singing. Growds of people. Do not leave. Evets. Clever looking young people. The boys, dressed like the city Shelts, have roadsters! The country ain't the country any more. CREAMED PEAS Make cream sauce by melting the butter, add the flour to make a smooth paste.

BOOK OF FASHIONS 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 overexertion of the brain by regarding baby as a sort of animated 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 handled, tickled, caused to laugh or scream, irritated by vomiting and invariably causes irritability, crying or sleeplessness. Fretfulness, crying and sleeplessness from this cause can easily be avoided by treating baby with more consideration, but when you just can't see what is making baby restless, you can offer drops of pure, harmless castoria. It's amazing to see how quickly it calms baby's nerves and soothes him to sleep; yet it contains no drugs or opiates. It is purely vegetable—the recipe is on the wrapper. Leading pediatrician Dr. Omer era diarrhea, constipation, gas on stomach and bowels, feverishness, loss of sleep and all other "upset" of babyhood. Over 25 million bottles used a year shows its overwhelming popularity. With each bottle of Castoria, you get boot on Motherhood, worth its weight in gold. Look for Chas. H.Fletcher's signature on the package so you'll get genuine Castoria. There are many imitations. In Darker Baltimore BY RALP MATTHEWS Thoughts while strolling. — Men stop you along Eutaw street and tell you a doleful story of hard luck. They recite it with the same deliburate tone as the Children's Day. They are generally hardworking, honest men out of a job who just want enough to get a cup of coffee. The story is realistic and generally cries a quarter or a dime out of the pocket of the uninitiated, but when you pass them day after day pushing the same stunt you become hardheaded. Some of them pick up seven and eight dollars a day I am told. A Recluse There is an old lady who frequents upper Madison avenue, who often requests a cup of coffee and a bit of toast. Kind-hearted housewives always comply and talk pityingly to her. On good authority I learn that she is a housewife who having worked in one rich family for more than 20 years saving her wages all the while. She was also handsomely remembered by the old widower when he died after keeping house for him for 10 out of the 20 years, following the death of his wife. At the time of his death she was a housewife, who had neglected him during his life to see his remains. She did all the buying and hired all of the help. Since his death she has done no work. She keeps her place of abode a dark secret from her own relatives, whom she thinks want to shabby and she immediately arouses sympathy. Keep back the tears, she's a shemale miser. Sweet Mcn Certain well-dressed young men who frequent the lower Druid Hill avenue pool rooms have a great deal of leisure time on their hands. They rise late, eat well and spend their time to suit themselves without worrying about the inconvenience of working in the laundry and maids, laboring in the sweltering heat of Roland Park kitchens are responsible for their well-groomed appearance. Nightly the good fairies bring home buckets of cold chow from the help's panty to please their lord's palate. Saturday night he is given his spending change for the week. The cook who can provide the best food, the most cigarettes and buy the best looking suit has the best looking man regardless of his gender or male charm. These parasites make loving a business and work for the highest bidder. A. "Numbers" Runner A little hunch-back cripple, seen navigating awkwardly about the Northwest section on knocks out a very profitable living selling numbers. He is employed by one of the lottery bankers as a runner. He has a large clientele upon whom he morning, midnight and receives from banks to many dollars to be played on certain numbers. He gives a a receipt similar to a laundry ticket. Whitens skin double- quick! A LOVELY light complexion is so easy to get with Nadinola; the double-quick, super-powerful bleaching cream.

Nadinola Bleaching Cream Makea Skip Whiter While You Sleep Nobody says a word during the transaction. In spite of his 'physical handicaps I am told he visits nearly 200, houses daily. Paying The Rent When you apply to rent an apartment in certain sections of Madison avenue the agent asks if you are a working man or whether you have a means of raising the rent which is usually very extortionate. By this he means do you run a speakeasy. Landlords are responsible for much of the vice in that section because bootlegging is not always the of the renter, but is a cold necessity. The average man's wage is from $18 to $20 per week, often at apartments rent for $15 and $20. In order to eat the householder is forced to sell liquor or permit, gambling. Public Tea Parties Sometimes on fences, and in other public places you see small invitations tacked up saying "Come to this address to a tea party every Tuesday or Friday night." If you know your Baltimore you will know that that address is a blind jenny. You need no introduction as long as you can prove that you are not a government agent. An Ex-Dope King Sometimes on Druid Hill avenue you see a big sad-eyed fellow. His once portly body is broken and his jovial smile is gone. His cheeks are sunken and he talks incoherently as though dreaming of the days when he was other than he is today. His highpowered sport can be, and instead of the elaborate furnished house he once owned, he and his friends live somewhere. I don't know where. He was formerly a king among dope traffickers although his friends, up to the time he was sent to Atlanta, thought him a successful caterer. His wife in a flood of tears of the last needy ride he made from New York to Baltimore with thousands of dollars worth of the precious joy dust secreted in his Twelve times during that night he was overhaulied by state cops who had been notified to watch out for his car by New York Narcotic Agents, who had missed him as he drove down town. Twelve times during that night he had been made to get out and his car ransacked from top to bottom. Early the next morning he fell in his door exhausted, a nervous wreck. The dope had been hid in the upholstery of his car. The man is the last trip I'll ever make. he said, "I'm through. The net is closing in too tightly." He fell across the bed and was asleep. Before he awoke, government agents raided his home, and in every corner, former, and hardly twenty of his henchmen were sent to Atlanta. Four years he remained. What those years were can best be seen on his face, now so different from the prosperous looking counterpart, who had other day eating a two-cent snowball and gazing into space. I fell sorry for him.

The superiority of the AFRO-AMERICAN as a Newspaper is immediately apparent upon a careful survey and reading of its front page. One does not have to go further than the "front door" of this newspaper to note its air of studied make-up, its well chosen news items, its unusual treatment of news stories, its modern typography. This superiority is not the result of hap-hazard or chance work, but is the direct outcome of years of concentrated effort in a chosen field. The absorption of modern methods of newspaper making, and a determination to give its readers "THE BEST NEWSPAPER THAT MONEY CAN BUY." In the large Metropolitan cities outside of its home town, the AFRO-AMERICAN is the largest seller because of this easily recognized mark of superiority. 1.

Sends Out Address To America Failure Of U. S. Democracy—Ballot, Haiti—Anti Lynch Law —Equal Educational Facilities—Residential Segregation—Economic Programs Are Topics Dealt With. NEW YORK. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, today made public the American people adopted at its 19th Annual Conference in Los Angeles. The Address drawn up by a Committee of white D. F. B. D. Bubois and a follows. The year of the Presidential Election brings forcibly to the mind of every American, white and black, the Democratic Government in the United States. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in its charge that the disfranchisement of the majority of intelligent adult Negroes in the United States is not simply a problem of Democracy affects the entire nation and the whole world. Funds Stolen A recent document published in the Congressional Record shows that the states which have separate schools for Negroes have only 3,000 college students, where they might have only $2,000,000 a year from State and National funds, when they ought to receive twelve millions. This is illegal and unconstitutional. It must be remedied and we must remedy it by ballots and by court action. Decent Work Our economic situation is still pre- Democracy Discredited If Democracy is discredited and seized at today, it is very largely because of its partial failure in the United States. We are today dominating the world, rather than free and intelligent public opinion; and this is no small measure because the disfranchisement of 70% of the population has involved the disfranchisement of more than a million Southern white voters. Despite an increase of 100% in the voting population of Southern white voters in the 19th century, we face the astonishing fact that in the last forty years the voting population there has increased only 30% and in the South it has been directed to increase in the number of voters a generation. Gerrymander These facts, together with the disfranchisement of the foreign-born in New England and the disfranchisement of congressional districts elsewhere, give the astonishing result that a million voters can elect to Congressmen in the South and 10 in England, but only 1 in the West and 12 on the Pacific Coast. Facts such as these are ruining the interest of America in the United States. Occasionally, searely one eligible American voter out of three goes to the polls, and the number who did not vote in the last election, reached 90% in two states; 70-80% in 70% from 50 to 70% in 9 states; and from 40-50% in 9 states. Government A Farsee The American Government in the United States has become a force, primarily because for the sake of disfranchising black men, white Americans will be willing to disfranchise. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People calls on the nation for a new birth in Democracy without regard to race or color. The American belief is that the nation has a basis of intelligence and character. Haiti Only in such way can this nation face the tremendous problems before it in the problem of free speech and unrestricted speech in our people; the problem of imperialism and the emasculation to Haiti, Nicaragua, Cuba, the Philippines and Hawaii from the compulsory ban on theanks the overthrow of the problem of peace among the nations and of decent and intelligent cooperation in the real advancement of the natives of Africa and Asia together with Egypt. If we need the power of intelligent democracy for these broader matters, we need it all the more here in our own land and for the specific hurts of the population this Association especially repre- Lynching For the first time in a generation there has passed in the United States one day when a human being has not been launched by a mob. The gratification of recording such a fact only increases the need for modern nation must need rejoice at so elementary an exhibition of decency if lynchings can be stopped. It must be stopped for four years. If it can be lessened by local initiative, it can and should be wiped out by nation's recent mob murders. If lynchings still needs to be stopped, a Federal Anti-Lynchings Act must be passed to the determination of America to put down mob rule. Segregation Distranchement and segregation. race hatred and war, all are steps toward the same dehumanizing and detrimental residential segregation out from the protection of the law; but it continues to be common in real estate manipulation and by voluntary agreement. Some segregation by race will continue to be maintained and persisted in the departments of the Federal Government at Washington. It is due to our unremitting effort that this open defiance of law continues in general. Whatever political power we have should be used to continue the fight. Low Teachers' Salaries In the past, racial discrimination in the United States has been widespread, the ignorance of the descendants of the slaves, despite the fact that this ignorance was only one of the reasons for the tremendous advance which black Americans have made in intelligence, their means of communication, I. In the chief centers of Negro population there is open discrimination in the salaries Dr. White Dentist CROWN AND BRIDGE WORK A SPECIALTY ASK A FRIEND WHO KNOWS Nerve Blocking and Other Modern Meth- ods to Alleviate Pain. 1028 Pennsylvania Ave. Phone, Vernon 0356 of teachers, length of school terms provision of housing and equipment and amount of money spent on white and Neerou public schools. Funds Stolen A recent document published in the Congressional Record shows that 3,000 college schools for Negroes have only 3,000 college students, where they ought to have 37,000, and receive only $2.25 per student. Congressional funds, when they ought to receive twelve millions. This is illegal and unconstitutional and socially unacceptable. It must be remedied and we must remedy it by ballots and by court action. Decent Work Our economic situation is still precarious and deplorable. We have more resources and security securing decent work and we are denounce the secret enmity toward black workers which is still manhandled in the institutions which acquiesce in discrimination toward them and in opposition to their membership and employment. We should refuse to use our political power to advance the cause of white unionism when it stands for black unionism. We rejoice at the continued growth and development of economic Negro culture, art and literature. Deplorable conditions and race to prostitute beauty to flirt and defeatism. We are still objects of petty public pursuit, coupled with economic theft. The Flood In time of public calamity, like the Mississippi flood we are treated in many instances like slaves and criminals. We still lack the right to be held accountable for commotion, and especially we continue to pay railroads in the South for accommodations which we do not receive. These public carriers, even in interstate traffic, enforce a species of discrimination so outraged and so obvious—illegal as to call immediate redress before the courts. The Ballot Our great weapon of offense against all this is the ballot. We must not give it up. We must register and vote it up. We must not mortgage our vote to faithless and corrupt political organizations. We must demand in return for our political allegiance, education, protection and national respect. Behind that ballot and fighting for it stands the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, American Institute, which does not his policies, and its work. We hall and greet our friends North and South black and white whose liberal thought in word and deed, in platform, newspaper, room, book and press, is forwarding day of our complete emancipation MARYLAND Easton, Md.

Patton Patton, second in command of the Eighth of Illinois, was a Tennessee boy, native of Nashville. He was a graduate of U.A., and took his regiment with him through dash, intrepid bravery, conquest, to deathless fame in France. Duncan, the Eighth's warrior-comrade, was a brave and alone weken his prop. Patton had the SILENCE of a soldier. This humble writer was collaborating with the Eighth. The work will go on and will be dedicated so: "To Patton and Soldiers Who Wought Two Wars In One." Young men, here are examples of manhood and perseverance as high as you will find among books or men. No Third Party Bishop James Cannon, Jr., political bishop of the M. E. Church south, speaking of the coming Asheville meeting of "drys" who are really dry, say no Third Party will be attempted by southern democrats, but that the aim of his crusaders is not to get up a new party but to preserve the ideals direct word from the bishop: "No and unity of southern democracy. A third party move is contemplated, nor are southern democrats to be asked to become Republicans." You need no information on the subject, do you? If “southern democracy” is to be preserved by the bishop, you know what to expect. Burnt child dreads the fire. Senator Heflin, once congressman for the Tuskeee Institute district, following his term as secretary of state in Alabama, is more-interesting than Dr. Cannon. Speaking in Republican Iowa, where there is free speech, the Alabama senator, in whose state free speech is confined to his party, predicted the defeat of the Democratic party by 10,000,000 votes. Arkansas won't forgive Mr. Heflin for this: “Nomination of Smith and Robinson presents the weakest ticket the party ever” Catholics, without regard to party label, and Democrats hungry for office, will be reorganized on this point. "The party will be reorganized," according to Mr. Helfin. "If he has his way, will go back to first principles. You know those principles. They cropped out at Housetown then. They keep you to be water." ... Times and parties change rapidly, as you see. After the Democrats put up Senator Robinson to be former Senator Gore, blind but nicious, you could only view the G. O. P. and sing: "Other refuge have I none." However, you will have to watch and stay up late to stir colored Republicans up. Olympian Games Regret is expressed that, colored Americans won't have old-time representation on their country's team at the Olympic games. You know, a year hence nobody will remember who jumped highest or ran fastest at those games. You missed an ancient contest. Paul, who missed nothing, said: "The race is not to the swift." If young men prepare to hold their ground in this world they may make a name more valuable than one printed one day for high kicking. Isocrates (ask some book friend about him) had something say about the Olympic games, and place at that immortal spot. "I have often wondered that those who conceive the great festivals and have established athletic career in the physical excellence worthy of such great rewards, and yet to those who have individually toiled for the public goods, no one minds as to be able to benefit others as well as themselves, to these, I say, they have allotted no honor, no recognition, no kindness had more consideration; for if the athletes were to acquire twice the strength they possess, no advantage would accrue if one man were to conceive a wise thought, all would reap the enjoyment of his understanding who were willing to share. You might read that again, remembering, as you go along, that while no one can recall who ran a race or threw the javelin, no one would know your Olympic games are held daily and you are contesting with the world. Leap the bars of prejudice and run the race set for you for the enjoyment of the enjoyment." Two Old Ladies Two old ladies, one, Mrs. Harriett Taylor, 101, and one, Mrs. Rebecca Grace, 101, died in Chicago. They will have much to report on arrival in the upper bright world. When Mrs. Taylor was born in 1838, Mrs. Taylor had just been elected President. In 1838, the year of Mrs. Croft's birth, Martin Van Buren, put of Jackson, occupied the White house. The debate between the two opened up. Colored Americans at that time had not come to the title of Americans but were slaves. Get down your books and read about the period. Have a family discussion on the events between the day of the birth of these ladies and the day of their death. Discussion is the burden that brings up was the thought. Knowledge is the rope. These old ladies saw their race in these old ladies like us. They saw their race emerge from slavery and saw also, the day of little men. They saw Lee and Grant contend and when Lincoln was murdered including them of humans. Imagine them answering questions when they got easy in heaven. "What is the latest news?" they were asked. "Not much, they must have heard." "Not much, they must have heard." It left the Democrats were still scrapping over whiskey and agreeing on slavery." Pullman Porters Two items touching Pulman porters will interest you. One is about a porter on a far western train arrested for attempting an assault on a police officer. The Press of counsel for your prosecution, reported that a mob wanted to lynch the porter. Promptly officials of the city and county in which the accused man was held did not, no matter the kind happened. You knew that to begin with, that is, you knew the A.P., entirely ignorant of 12,000,000 Americans, and compelled to cater to newspapers that own it. didn't tell exactly what cerned in this case except the poor, unfortunate porter, belongs on the side opposed to the porter's side. A man not permitted to take a hand in dispensing justice cannot get justice as dispensed by others. Think: Then talk. The other item tells of porters still taking strike; having most to consider a strike; called as far back as April. Men who call a strike in April and don't know by July whether to strike or not are not capable of striking. Strikes are usually associated with labor. Porters are not laborers, skilled or unskilled. At least, don't call them that. Hope the porters win what they are fighting for. Hope also, that they look before they rap and then leap without regret. Entertain AFRO Club of the Tenn- When W. S.

He then put down where the money could be found, in what banks in Texas, in such and such investment in bonds; where his high class mortgages had been placed, and so on just as financial institutions the people what one man can do with money another man can't handle. The next day every daily newspaper in Houston was looking up Mr. Willis, warning him to Advocate, edition, telling about Willis' great convention, how colored Texas was coming up.

GOOD MORNING JUDGE Sauce For The Goose Was Bad For The Gander "What is sauce for the goose may be sauce for the gander," but Eugene Dorsey, 915 Parish street, and his alleged sweetheart, Miss Mattie Parker, 920 Whatcato street, will take his saying with a grain of salt, he affirms. First, some time ago Miss Parker walked into Dorssey and a young woman on the street, and not only cleaned up for both of them but devised a plan to walk around with young women she could step out a little with young men. So not long after that she made it convenient for Dorssey to see her sitting in a swell car with another act in which Dorssey took the cave-man part and is said to have laid his first rather heavily against her face. "Judge," said Dorsey, "when she saw me talking to a zib she raised her hand when I saw her talking to that man." "Well, your idea that what is sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander, may be all right," declared the Magistrate, who released the goose and hold the gander, unless he "mays $6.45."

One year has passed, dear father, Since you were called away; How well do we remember That sad and weary day. No trembling sad farewell, From his lips was heard. So softly he crossed the quiet stream Was not a ripple stirred. So low was his master's call That it did not reach our ears; That it had not return but ears, But it had the sound of His loving yoke. And was full of joy, not fears. Although you could not speak to us, Nor could you say good-bye. We know your thoughts were with You suffered much, you murmured not. We watched you day by day; We tried and rayed that your dear life Would not be taken away. No one knows the silent heartaches No one who has lost can tell, Of the sorrow borne in silence, For the one we loved so well. By his loving wife, MARY E HENSON, and CHILDREN.
