LOUIS, MO.—Charging reckless expenditure of funds, J. E. Mitchell, Editor of St. Louis Argus seeks August 8th to prevent the re-election of Fred W. Dabney, Grand Master of Masons in this state. The fight has become the most bitter in the history of Masonry in the state. Mitchell declared that the expenses of Grand Lodge have increased about $12,000 according to the treasurer's report. "Just how much of this amount went to the Grand Master himself is pretty hard to tell at this time, but it is worth it," he says, of $350 a month and expenses. Dabney is not the type of person to head an organization of this kind. My reason is that the organization offers opportunity for a man, who has no visible means of support, to take over of the situation to boost his salary. Philips Is Named Mitchell charges that Dabney together with Homer G. Phillips, a St. Louis lawyer and L. A. Knox made the decision to take over weeks during which time they lived like lords in hotels. Their pretex was to find out who had a right to masonry in this country, the A. F. & A. M. Judging from the results the trip may be properly called a spread of the big three at the brethren, the windows and orphans. "This is just another incident of reckless spending of the people's money by Dahney. Mitchell declared, "whenever you ask what that does he care? Does it cost him one penny? Did it cost his two companions a penny? Isn't Dahney known to be a man who lives by his wife. Then Grand Mitchell and his wife joined Mitchell from the Masonic order because of certain articles appearing in the St. Louis Argus, the newspaper editor secured an injunction restraining Mitchell from joining Dahney from receiving the salary of $8,200 a year and directing Dahney to return all the money that he has received on the $4,200 a year salary. Dahney he also compelled to pay the costs of the Judge Crittenden E. Clark represented Mitchell in the case, Homen G. Philips and and a white attorney acted for Dabney.

When carried to the hospital he fell in love with one of the nurses and gave her all his money telling her that she was the only woman he ever loved. For McDuffie this was unusual as he is nown to hold an aversion to womankind so far as personal admixture. This love at first sight and extreme generosity on the part of the dying evangelist raised the ire of his friends who resented the nurse's acceptance.

Church, Jr., again established his title to leadership of the Republican party in this state by swamping the Lily White group by a vote of 2,800 to 200 for membership on the State Executive committee in the Republican primary held here Thursday.

Three daily papers sided with them. By almost the same vote, Church's candidate for the Republican nomination for Governor, was carried in the tide. Two candidates supported by the Lily white leaders received 80 and 50 votes, respectively. Is Sirnificant The Church victory in Tennessee last week is regarded by politicians as significant due to the highly debatable ground this presidential election. Several times in the past it has not only gone wrong, but has elected Republican governors and the bitter factional fight waged this year has created a condition, observers say, which has made the Republican victory there possible.

The job is yours — white men and white women of Shelby County. Show by your hand that you can put the Negro vote against yours in a Democratic Primary and find you marking ballots side by side with Negroes in an election where decent right should have none but white men and women decide by their votes. There is a white man, southern boy, and a political buddy of Bob Church — a Negro — the leader of the worst element of Negroes in Shelby County. This Ed. A.

World-Wide Disease “The disease is one of practleally world-wide distribution although it had been practi-ally eliminated from Great Britain prior to the World War. ‘This was accomplished by the muzeling of all dogs and the estab- lishment of a quarantine on dogs entering the country. During the Word ‘War, the, disease was, again introduced into that country by dogs being carried in by aeroplane. "Should Muzzle Dogs “wherever there are rabid animals there is a passibility of rabies, be- ing transmitted fo human Ingivc uals, ‘The fact that every year an average of 22, animal, brains , af found upon examination in the Lab- oratory of the City Health Depart- ment to be rabid gives some idea of the possibility of transmission in Baltimore City, ‘For the protection of humans as well as for the protection of the dogs, all dos owners should not al- low thelr dogs to run at large. No dog should be allowed to go on the strect unless muzzled or under Teash. Go To Doctor “persons bitten by dogs should gc at once to a physician to have the Wound cauterized and dressed, ‘They should ‘then report either to the State or City Health Department, the name and address of the person ot persons bitten and the name anc Address of the owner of the dos: Following this, the dog, itl be hel for an observation period of 10 days to. see whether or not the dog de- Velops rabies. In no event should the dog be ‘killed at once for he may mot have developed the dens sufficiently for the laboratory evi- dence to be of value. In the. event the dog aevetops the disease ail per sons bitten should immeditely "be- gin treatment, If the dog docs not develop the disease. it is not neces- sary for the preventive treatment to bbe. administered "tall cases where @ person is bit: ten by a dog that cannot, be located that person ‘should have. the preven- tive treatment for rabics.” THOMASTOWN, MARYLAND THOMASTOWN, Md.—Allen A.M. ‘church, services were well attended. ‘Sun: day.

HENRY F. ARNOLD NEW YORK CITY. The potential power of the Negro's vote in the coming national election is well recognized by both the democratic and republican National Committee. This fact is well substantiated the very moment a caller drops into the democratic headquarters in the General Motors Building where the honorable John J. Haskob is mapping out plans for the New York History Museum. 9 E. 20th street, the New York republican headquarters. In either of the two headquarters one will observe a friendly attitude towards the race, which has been a bone of contention politically, socially and economically since emancipation. Courtesy The obvious reason for so much courtesy is that there is to be a presidential election Tuesday. November sixth and both the Republican and Democratic candidates for the high office of President are popular candidates. Their popularity and the issues are the instruments, which have caused prominent white republicans to join the democrat and prominent democratic parties as the publican. This has been the condition during many other presidential elections. Change This Year A new phase of the political game has showed upon the political horiz- The Negro who herefore has been classed as "rock ribbon" republican, is revoting, and is causing considerable speculation in holding the balance of power in several states above the Potomac river. Negroes Diveded In Harlem Harlem, where Negroes from every section of rentez rendezvous, and section politics to race progress gives a concrete example. In Harlem one finds a 50-50 vote despite the fact that Harlem has two G. O. P. men representing the race in the City Council. The two men have a following that they may be able to deliver to Dr. Hoover. Harlem has a devoted man who is a member of the Civil Service Commission and he too has a large following. The question is will Harlem's two councillors be able to deliver their colored brother and sister to Hoover and will the general man who is a member of the Civil Service Commission be able to deliver his brother and sister to Professor W. If what the writer has been told attent the delivery is true, neither of the three distinguished gentlemen will be able to hold their crowd. Divided Talk with the Negro in Harlem and ask who will choose for president and who will decide that there will no decision in favor of either candidate until it becomes known what benefit the race will receive collectively. Out-of-town Negroes Divided Stand on the corner of 135th street and Seventh avenue a few moments and you will be able to talk folks from every state to the Union. They are all rebel-like politics. You come hook or crook let the titter know that you are a newspaper man. Immediately your newly made friend will tell you whether he is for Dr. Hoover or Professor. What's more you will be told what the folks base home think of the What the race is to receive collectively seems to be the thing which both the Harlem Negro and is out-of-town guest is an assistant Professor Dr. James Smith or Professor Smith if I am properly and sincerely advised, must make some definite promise to the race. The writer may be indefinite in affairs of the colored brother wants or what he means when he saves he is awaiting campaign promises from Dr. Hoover and Professor Smith. The writer is not interested as to what the colored two po-poons want. They want the colored prize next November. U. S. Experts Aid Business League U. S. Experts Aid Business League NEW YORK—With J.

For the first hour it seemed to me that only Boston people were to be on hand. As the committeeomes a struggle in way after midnight. Hereforeto Mr. Edouard, who is an interl- or decorator, has held the position for a while. Last week he had a rather heterogeneous ensemble. There were both lovers and haters of the fine arts.

About three years ago, Thompson so large that he was the only person in the Harlem society that never be forgotten. She was engaged to no less than three of the choosest young eligibles. Then too, she rose to president of the Pierite Society, a really keen woman who the younger set, possesses and customs frequently change. Miss Thompson has been in town for a whole week and there hasn't even been a murmur. Oh, yes, we did see her with Dr. Robert White, who was one of the first and apparently most successful of the murders's killers. IT SEEMS THAT THE Trip to Paris, promoted by "The Tattler" is in the bag. The strings of the bag are made of leather, who have taken sacred oaths that they will die rather than see any other than a "Show Boat" girl win that trip. In taking these oaths, the oaths are not very useful without the slightly dollar. So the "Show Boat" company has collared every stray dollar on the tour of the Tattler's outright. In the preliminary context the other night at the Savoy Ballroom on Lenox avenue, Miss Dorothy Boyd has been presented beauty even. Second prize of five dollars went to Miss Selma Mylanrick former Baltimore and now a member of the "Show Boat" company. Everywhere and everything that comes off is bound to see one of them.

Stratman-Thomas, white, 23, research pharmacologist at the University of Wisconsin, sailed August 2nd for the Belgian Congo with six new patients to find a cure for African sleeping sickness, which claims 100,000 victims a year. The American scientist expects to reach Africa in October travelling in the Congo and Rhodesia, for two years, experimenting with the 18,000 doses of drugs to determine which is the most effective in curing the deadly disease. He has enough to handle 100 patients. He will establish the greatest jungle clinic which has been developed in the 200 years that man has been fighting African sleeping sickness. The expedition is backed by the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation and Parke. Davis and the company, Parke, which is fur- "Finding a cure for sleeping sickness would be equivalent to discovering a great continent," according to Dr. A. S. Loevenhart of the University of Wisconsin under whose direction the new drugs were developed. "Finding sickness is one of the world's remarkable diseases. It is caused by an animal, which can be seen only through the microscope, called to trypanosome. The trypanosome is carried by the testes fw which gets it by sucking the blood of a person or animal infected with the disease. Our highest quality in the drugs, they have been packed under vacuum so that air will not deteriorate them. - Sleeping sickness affects an area of more than 1,000,000 square miles in the heart of Africa. The disease killed some 300,000 natives in the Uganda about 25 years ago. It has killed off all the draft artisans the Congo and has destroyed the agricultural scale virtually impossible. All labor in the Congo is hand-labor, and even the big development companies and mining companies have been hampered in the economic exploitation of one of Africa's richest regions because of sleeping sickness, which is not the same as sleeping sickness known in this country. - Stratman-Thomas expressed "reasonable certainty" before he sailed that at least one of the six new drugs he is taking will cure the disease.

The writer may have found playgrounds and supervisors of play unnecessary or himself, and may have been forced to abandone the freedoms of children in Baltimore whose mothers are forced to be away from home all day, often necessitating their children staying in the streets during the mother's absence.

For example, most of the larger dailies were surprised to learn that Dr. R. R. Moton principal of Tuskegee Institute, is in politics. Tuskegee's secretary, said the story, is now secretary of the executive committee in charge of Hoover campaign among colored folks to white folk, but it isn't colored. Tuskegee has always been in politics. Booker T. Washington, Dr. Moton's predecessor at Tuskegee, was summoned so frequently to the White House to talk politics with President Roosevelt, that to quote his own words, "I felt that I should allow myself to be drawn into a kind of activity that I had definitely determined to keep away from." Mr. Washington spent whole afternoons at the White House. Mr. Roosevelt invited him to dine with members of his family of the University of Pennsylvania. Mr. Roosevelt tried to teach South while he was president, he talked over first with the president of Tuskegee, President Taft also confided in Dr. Washington. Things have not changed much under Dr. Moton since he succeeded Dr. Washington, except that perhaps Dr. Moton operates with bolder leaders. Dr. Moton was sponsor for the 92nd Division and the Des Moines Training Camp. He had his secretary, Mr. Emmett Scott, appointed an assistant to Secretary of War Newton D. Baker, President Wilson sent him to the battleships in 1918 to investigate conditions, aid morale and president. After 30 years of political activity of this kind, it is not news to note that Tuskegee is in politics. There is news in the observation that Tuskegee suffered a reverse last week. Dr. Moton's candidate to head the Hoover campaign was Mr. Homer C. B. Browder, who was defeated by Dr. John R. Hawkins, who was backed by Dr. Emmett J. Scott, new secretary-treasurer of Howard University. Since Dr. Hawkins is also a trustee of Howard University, it is being said that Howard deferred Tuskegee. Several years ago Tuskegee beat Howard in secreting the union of the U. S. Veterans' host on Tuskegee Campus. The score is therefore all. That's news. Regarding the Hawkins victory as Dr. Moton losing to his former secretary, would also be news. Considering that Dr. Moton lost, the "news" is not that he is so far "in" politics, but that he is so far "out" during this campaign. Democrat Were Male. To the Edit.

I did not say, "Ninety-five per cent of my recommissioned officers Harris before being made," but said, "after they were made." The above excerpt carried in your last issue is correct as it appeared in my open letter in the Atlanta Journal-Register. I did not say, "Ninety-five per cent of my recommendations were submitted to Senators George and Harris before being made." But said, "after they were made." I error, I want to correct it by explaining just what I meant to say; I meant to say, that I submitted 95% of my recommendations to the Georgia senators, after I had mailed them to the Postmaster General. When I was elected National Committeeman, the Georgia senators requested me to send the names of applicants for postmaster to the Postmaster General, and at the same time write the applicants to write them to take care of their confirmation when they came along before the Senate for confirmation. Request that I do it before, but afterwards. They did not desire to take any part in their nomination, but were interested in their confirmation. So, usually the day the Senate confirmed, I would write the senators and the applicants, because I thought it would help them get confirmed. However did I try to dictate republican appointments, but desired to hold themselves near enough to them to use them in the white primaries. I never consulted either Senator who I must recommend, but did not ask their permission to writing my recommendations confirmed. I want the public to know that I was not a syphilis, or a tool, but functioned for myself. I made the following statement, which is not according to facts: I do not blame you for the error. I want to correct it by explaining just what I meant to say: I meant to say that I corresponded to the Georgia senators after I had mailed them to the Postmaster General. When I was elected National Committeeman, the postmaster senators requested me to send the names of applicants for pastmasterships to them when I recommended them to the Postmaster General, and at the same time我 wrote the application information when they came along before the Senate for confirmation. They did not request that I do it before, but asked me to do it because I desire to take care in their nomination, but were interested in their confirmation. So, usually the day following the day I would recommend to the department to write the senators' names, because I thought it would help them get confirmed. Our Senators never did try to dictate republican appointments, but desired to hold them accountable to them to use them in the white primaries. I never consulted either Senator whom I must recommend, but did not hesitate to ask their influence. I want the public to know that I was not a sycophant, or a tool, but functioned for myself.

It seems that our people ought to be at the center of protest vigilantly and at once to their congressmen against the passage of the amendment to the Immigration Bill excluding from this country members of the Alley Improvement Association of disarm- "This is one of inatory attempts attempted by Congress against long time." Of course, the APRO will do all it can to urge its readers to action on this important subject, but it is a fine thing to note that man like Dr. Waldron are on the job. Someone told me Love was dead, And I said. As he wiped his tear-dimmed eye, "Love can die." Love, ah Love may dormant lie, But can't die; Simply lies and waits to hear, Soft and clear. The sweet voice of one, whose touch Wakens much; Yea, whose soft and silent tread Stirs the dead. Afro Is Not For Hoover The name of Carl Murphy, president of the AFRO-AMERICAN, appeared on the Publicity Committee of the Hoover Campaign Committee's weekly release Tuesday. The use of this name is not only without authorization, but has been done despite the positive declaration that this newspaper is not for Mr. Hoover and desires no official connection with his campaign. AFRO-AMERICAN is an independent weekly. It has not announced for Hoover nor has it come out for Smith. When it makes its choice it will do so first in its own columns. In the second place, the AFRO pledges its readers not to get excited about either Mr. Smith or Mr. Hoover unless these gentleman manifest considerable more interest in us than they have at present.

Mr. Washington spent whole afternoons at the White House. Mr. Roosevelt invited him to dine with members of his family and guest. Practically everything which Mr. Roosevelt tried to do for the South while he was president, he talked over first with the president of Tuskegee. President Taft also confided in Dr. Washington. He has not changed much under Dr. Moton since he succeeded Dr. Washington, except that perhaps Dr. Moton operates with bolder strokes in the open. Dr. Moton was sponsor for the 92nd Division and the Des Moines Training Camp. He had his secretary, Mr. Emmet Sear, appointee to Secretary, New D. Baker, President Wilson, who him to the battlefields in 1893 to invade conditions, aid morale and the President. He was defeated by Dr. John R. Hawkins, who was backed by Dr. Emmett J.

This is reason enough to vote for any candidate, and we are glad to note that the Cleveland mayor has their estimate of "A1" and what he will do is correct.

To the Editor: A political crisis of the Republican and Democratic parties since the Civil war and having been offiliated with the Republican party since my child-hood, I find that as chief power during most of those years, the party will have to enforce the laws that pertain to the colored race. The 13th, 14th and 15th amendments that relate directly to the Negro have been constantly amended, and the 16th amendment was centered on the 18th amendment, overlooking the other amendments of earlier origination and more importance to the real existence of the Negro people.

Racial Discrimination And the Old Parties. To the Editor: With Smith in the minds of many Americans symbolizes the breakdown of certain unjust racial and religious prejudices. Alfred E. Smith was nominated by the Democrat. The prelude to the convention was the lynching of a colored man in Houston, th convention city. The aftermath of the convention is the decision to nominate a Democratic party in Texas to exclude all Negroes from its primaries. This decision may or may not be technical, but it is the decision of the Democratic party hypocritically pledged itself to enforce along with other Federal laws in its plan on race. The amendment which the Democratic party hypocritically pledged itself to enforce along with other Federal laws in its plan on race is the amendment which the Alfred E. Smith in the minds of many Americans symbolizes the breakdown of certain American institutions and is dominated by the Democratic Party at a convention in the great state of Texas. The prelude to the convention was the lynching of a colored man in Houston, th convention may be the first time a decision of a Federal judge upholiding the right of the Democratic Party in Texas to exclude all Negroes from its primaries, the decision may be fact it nullifies the 10th amendment which the Democratic Party hypocritically pledged itself to entitle along with the right to be on exhibition. What a record is this for the party of the "friend of the common man." For this tragic irony we do not hold Smith personally responsible though he might be wrong. It is clearly as on the wet and dry issue. No man is big enough single handed to be a politician Messiah to the Democratic or any other party and can party in citing the Democratic record. The moral is plain. If the Democratic Party in an state can close its primaries to all colored men and can keep the servant of the big business interests which finance it, it is high time for the men and women who do the work of the world whatever their race and color, to build the state and keep the servant of the big business interests, peace and freedom.

If the Democratic Party in any state can close its primaries to all colored men, it would be an increasingly the servant of the big business interests which finance it, it is high time for the men and women who do the work of the world, whatever their race and color, to build their own party as their own servant in the struggle for democracy.

The older members of this group have had experiences of saving friendships with truly consecrated and resourceful northern missionaries, which even E-Legistrators recognize. Union faces the future with a fruitful past, but a "mussed present." LOOSE ADMINISTRATION A loose administration is at the root of man of Union's problems. The Baptist Home Mission Society furnishes most of the school's fund Hence, its control. As the Beneficiary of the school, the school and the presidency a reward for faithful services on some mission field, rather than an opportunity for a darin-capable builder. President Clark is kind and easy-going, allowing things to drift according to the wishes and feelings of teachers and students. The college has no dean nor is its equivalent. Union has a number of part time teachers. At least four of Richmond's largest churches are divided energy and interest—an unbeatable great loss to the school and the churches involved. Surely poorly paid teachers need more sympathy, and so do young, raw Negroes who want to divide energy and interest—an unbeatable great loss to the school and the churches involved. Student "Gangs" are one of the student contributions to this old school. Three of four petty fraternities are housed in the dormitory. Cheap prejudices, polished fellowship groupings, and well-trained college fraternities will destroy them selves, they will render much injury to innocent Negro students, even at Union. Union University is a national school in student material and in its claim for support. Right now, they go a long way in settling the present confusion.

VIRGINIA SEMINARY Nothing but trained teachers and workers have a place in a college; students, teachers, president and interested friends, with all cards on the table, mutual understanding, mutual sacrifice and conscience are the first needs of students in leadership, and not support, is the main question. HAMPTON THREE IMPROVEMENTS There are three improvements that Negro colleges in Virginia need to make. The professional fad has helped colleges and universities are not trained enough.

Who will become of all the state's "professional teachers anyway? It is a concern and though we have been taught that students be "prepared" for life long enslavement in the very dump-heaps themselves. Men who learn first to live a life can be trusted to make a living. A second needed improvement is a wholesale elimination of high schools from colleges. The four college suffer from the presence of high school pupils and high school teachers. Nine of them are considered to be two are too different to live and work in the same atmosphere. Union and Hampton need a general-house cleaning in race relations on the faculties. She will consummate the request in a real artfully imposed barriers, in a Christian institution.

Nrog tragic land, is performing with much success in theater. He was a pioneer in Odessa so effected the audience at the end of the third act the whole ladies weeping and waving their handkerchiefs. John Hogan notifies the free Negro City Hall January 2nd, 1862, and enter the armed services of the Confederacy or suffer consequences. White Virginiaians who entered the City Hall January 2nd, 1862, and Alexandria in search of a slave have been detained there. The General declared he could not permit civilians to beyond or remain within his lines. (Page Advt. from Kansas City Call) because we work with him and not for him. because he pays out more than $30,000 a year in wages and salaries than he pays in phone calls. because he believes in giving the youth of the race a chance — the average age of The Call employees is below 30. because he has made it possible for several hundred newsboys to earn an aggregate of approximately $12,000 a year. because he spares no enemy of the race, black or white, big or little. because he owns a fearless, fightin' newspaper, not controlled by any clique, class, lodge, church, faction, political party, or corporation. because Franklin is in the interests of the Negro population of Kansas City and the Southwest. Curtis' Indian Blood (Eric Kick in the Nation) The nomination of Senator Curtis for Vice-President is a striking illustration of the state of racial discrimination in the United States, a campaign biography it is frankly told that the Senator is a descendant of a chieftain of the Middle Western tribe to the live for a period of the tribal manner. If anyone is inclined to interpret the acceptance of a candidate winn such a background of him reflect upon the chances of him being named to a similar post which a man of Negro blood would have. One needs only to recall that during the campaign HIS GALLANTS prophesied that he had "colored" blood in his veins grew to such a damaging extent that it was finally thought necessary to make him number one of the so-called Angio-Saxon race, it seems to me that the Negroes have cause for much bitterness when they contemplate this situation. HIS gallantry has been contemptible that a white man's blood is enriched by the addition of one primitive strain (red) but that it is forever polluted by another primitive strain. In the spirit of fairness, may the time be not far distant when the man whose ancestors may have lived in a village in Africa be able to take the chance to live as the one whose forebears lived in a teepee. Peeved At "Al" (From Moravian Falls (N. C.) Yellow Jacket.) As a last final effort to scare the anti-Simmocrats back into line, the Citizen has dug up the "miger domination" scarecrow and hung it right up before the voters. But there are any number of Democrats who are such tactics. To illustrate: a life-long Democrat said to us the other day that he would vote for a New Jersey Democrat. The Tammany boss of these Negroes is Ferdinand Q. Morton. a Negro member of the Civil Service Commission, who is in charge of the employment of 100,000 white government servants. Tammany Hall has given this Negro commissioner a job he is also the superior officer of 150 white women and white men employees. Other Tammany Negroes hold supervisory positions in the city. There are numbers of dance halls in New York where blacks dance with white women, and Tammany makes no effort to separate them from bosom any and all colors. Negroes and whites eat together in public places in New York City, and go to movies together. A White Race (From The African World) The Secretary for Justice in Pictoria in the position of Syrians in the Dublin, which reads as follows:— Although the national home of these people is Asia, the Appellate and other Divisions of the Supreme Court have held that they are a white tree, consequently the laws applicable to the coloured, races. There are, it is true, also Syrians who are descended from the original Syrians and Arabs, but as these are, under the powers of the Immigration Act of 1918, not permitted to enter the Union, there is a danger of such helpe here. In any case, it appears desirable to act on the presumption that Syrians are a white race, and that in individual cases the onus of proving an admittance of coloured men be placed on the complaining party. Must Say Something (Richmond Times Despatch) Democratic leaders in Virginia are frank to say that the order issued by Herbert Hoover as Secretary of Commerce, after the attack on Negroes in the Census Bureau, was a good aid of a godsend to them, in so far as the Smith-Hoover presidential campaign is concerned. Its importance to them as a weapon against Hoover in the South is largely due to the fact that there is comparatively little else in Hoover's administration, thus him to good effect in this section. By RALPH MATTHEWS 500 doctors are expected in town next week and everybody is busy trying to hide their tonsils and adenoids. With so many medical men in town you are liable to be snatched off the street and have your appendix removed without notice. You prime you speak to a physician on the street he is liable to make you open our mouth wider and say "Ah." If you invite a doctor home to dinner he is likely to send you a bill for the call. If one tries to call on you too often you can try eating an apple a day. Of course you could save money by inviting a drunkest and having him to bring along a pocket full of assorted pills. You could even make a dentist clean the teeth of the whole family after a big chicken dinner, but he would probably do like a plumber and have to go home after his tools. Some of the visiting physicians can save room and board while visitation is on, and those who fokk with a doctor to sit up all night with a cockery baby. A lot of doctors will come in their own automobiles and a lot others will come in automobiles on which they haven't finished paying the installments. When one doctor calls at your house that is company time, two doctors will consult a consultation. A consultation is merely when they both try to outgress the other to find out what is wrong with you. When two doctors put their heads together the bill will be much larger. Doctor's treat you for what they think you have and if you take enough medicine you'll get it. When a physician gives you up as hopeless he may merely mean that he has been required to put you on your feet again he means you will have to sell your car to pay his bill. The convention will probably consider the demand of union labor that all dentists join the cement mixers local before doing any bridge work. The steam shovel manufacturers will send salesmen to interest the dentists in steam shovels to feed them in teeth. Some dentists have to give their patients gas twice, when they pull their teeth to relieve the pain and when they give them their bill to relieve the shock. Some doctors are great community workers. They work the community, and they help the physicians who do the most uplift work, however, are the face lifters. Even a beauty doctor has to have something to work with. He can't make a Cleopatra out of something that was intended to be useful instead of ornamental. A faith healer is also a doctor who has gone in partnership with heaven. When the patient fails to recover that is a shame, he falls down on his side of the bargain. It's tough to tell a guy with two broken legs to tell a man on his knees. The Bible says that if a man has the faith of a mustard seed he can move mountains, but a bink who is too weak to sit up hasn't got the ground on his shoulders.

C.) in Raleigh, News and Observer "Boling has never seen popular nor has it been profitable to those who engage in it. There may be widely-advertised news that they cannot forget that Southerners do not relish voting for what is known to them as the "Dark Party" nor do Southern women take kindly to dark electors against white men. DAY BY DAY What Is Happening To American Sports? It may not be in the serious matters of state that the real decadence of American life will begin, but in the national sports. You can learn about it at the showing this county's athletes made at the Olympic games. You also read that up in Philadelphia out of a national golf tournament because they were colored. There may be no direct connection between the failure of Americans to play golf, on a Philadelphia golf course, but behind the spirit which makes white men win because they are white, because they are colored may lie one of the reasons at least. Young white men who are deprived of the benefit of developing to meet the standards of American golf, perchance, they happen to be colored, should not expect to win against high school players, where mother race nor color is a bar. Unfortunately we are developing an unfair system of sports in America that is developing corrupt politics, for politics do not go so deep into human conduct as sports. No nation has ever survived a complete demoralized military field of sports and contagious games. To keep every American youth, white or colored, aiming to become a human being can reach, whether in sports or the more serious accomplishments of life, will be the only place to be made with the nations of the world. An Interesting World In Politics This has been an interesting week in politics. It has been rather scrambled for both "Al" Smith and Herbert Govinson, but it has been heard "Al". You have probably heard of the story of "Bret Rabbit and the Tar Baby". Every time Mr. Fox goes to the office, he often puts stuck into it. That has been the case of the Democratic candidate this week. First it was prohibition; then farm relief and last, but by no means least, the Negro question. In fact the week-end found the Smith candidacy about to whirl itself into fragrance if it is firmened up with political support like a straw cone. The Hoover Campaign In the Hoover camp things are also somewhat harmless — its only hope now being that the South will, so far as the group is concerned, be unobediently flirting with the South, and flirting with the South's enemies any good. In the matter of organizing to go after the group vote, however, the selection of John R. Hawkins means the beginning of a new political movement. Republican leaders must have obviously recognized that a departure from the old custom was necessary, because growing yearly more militant and independent of parties. As was pointed out in a recent meeting of the party, they must grow yearly more militant and independent of parties. They must also the big political settlement after this campaign must be made at a council table over the matter that at a cashier's window where they dole out a few dollars for the boys who whooped it up. The Hawkins organization will settlement further down through the masses, and if this is not done there will be thousands of sorely disappointing men. But Finley Wilson, close to Perry Howard, is reported on the war path. He is just good old time politics to make the powers that be let up on the Mississippi committeeman. They do things that are occasioned by the fact that no meeting develops much sailing wind, you may expect some kind of getting together for the good of the Old Party. Finley Wilson et al. A New Seat Of Power Another significant development has been the new seat of power in the political arena the University of Tuxekege to the Howard University group may seem merely a surface change of personnel, but it may also mean deep changes as well as accomplishments of the group. These institutions represent the power of the university and their alignment in political leadership will be watched with interest. Seasoned politicians are long distrusted and it is not surprising that Republican leaders have discerned that there is a sure drift of the group's power outspoken and independent type represented by the Howard University leadership. But developments of the week have fort to the younger men and women who are beginning to delve more deeply into the deeper economy of interest involved in an election. The Republican party is still the party of capitalism, exploiting the working class still to the dead body of the South. It is only in the froth and foam as the surface where the working class is exposed that there is any real difference between the two so far as the working masses are concerned. What the younger and more radical groups will do is hard to imagine, but the working class vote the socialist ticket, some the Worker's Party ticket and others may even soothe their conscience to the extent the Coxley-Queens interracial ticket. Down South The political news of the week in the South centers around Memphis where Robert R. Church swamped the Republican Lily Whitesmen and women who blocked men and women voted the Democratic ticket in a state primary. The Shelbiv County case is significant in that a majority of the whites of that county, as she showed, were voting. Thus the race welcomed the participation of race Democrats. In The North Up in Detroit, Governor Fred Green, speaking publicly to a huge crowd, supported Negro men and women for legislative offices, declaring that "Michigan will be greatly helped by the colored represent in the House and the Senate." All told you must admit that we are moving to the right direction, and the South is our hope, the Nation's Capital. "Africans have more in common with their proverbs, show, it is time for me to get away from the notion that they are not so different, in more than one sense, we Americans are less civilized and more barbarian than they."

There was another man lost seventy calves in one season through the depredations of leopards, and in the present season had cost 1,200 pounds a year to feed the lions on the Nuæntis ranch for many years. The average annual loss was between sixty and seventy.

O. B. A. LINKS UP WITH NEW CIRCUIT OPEN ON LABOR DAY NEW YORK — Effective a merger of booking interests and the theaters holding membership in the organization of the group, the Majestic Circuit and the Theatre Owners Booking Association closed negotiations last week where there was an effect. An agreement which is designed to revolutionize the theatricals among the group and give guaranteed employment to theaters in a year was closed Saturday between Charles H. Turpin, president, and Martin Klein, white secretary, of the T. O. B. and Jack Goldstein, president and Charles H. Myers, the Majestic circuit. Expect To Merge The agreement between the Majestic and the T. O. B. will govern this season, but it is expected that the two organizations will amalgamate and become one, having its principal office in New York City, and its Western office Conferences were had between the officers of the two circuits in Iowa, Pittsburgh, which resulted in both organizations obtaining authority from their respective execution of agreements which were signed in New York, between Mr. Klein and the Golden Bridge behalf of the respective officers. 25 Shows Routed Under the agreement, the Majestic Circuit in to have ready for presentation 25 attractions to open on Leroy Day in 25 cities in the United States, booked with the T. O. B. A. which will act as booking agency for productions of the Majestic Circuit for one year. The agreement provides the T. O. B. A. with the booking agency other than those of the Majestic Circuit during that period, with the exception of several special occasions to agree up a solid booking of 25 weeks is assured for the Majestic Circuit, guaranteed by the T. O. B. A. which organization in turn will book arrangements direct with There will either be a repeat of some of the companies with entire new equipment and book, for 15 weeks, or additional attractions will be added. The arrangement with respect to the booking is upon a basis of 50 per cent of the gross amount, each guarantee of $1,000, which guarantees his salary. Each show to is consist of 20 people, and the equipment, railroad fares and other expenses are to be taken out of the res' 50 per cent, leaving the $1,000 company free of all other expenses. To Play White Theatres Arrangements have been with the companies controlling the theatres to play the circuit's attractions not only in towns where there are no colored theatres, but in the larger key cities, and in town all shows are guaranteed of 40 weeks. There is also an understanding that the houses playing ed attractions and the theatre playing the summer instead eight weeks during the summer instead of keeping open continuously, in order to give the producer's material and put out new attractions. In the past most of the theatre played the same times during the year and often found themselves without productions, being compelled to put together a show to draw the business. Each theatre manager will be supplied with lithographs, lobby frames and advertising materials. The theatre will be placed safe and firm footing and will be an inducement to the investment of race capital in the theatre to take the place of the houses now in operation. Mrs. West Triumphs As Afro Club Artist A fictitious glimpse of the artistry of one of Baltimore's former singer, Mrs. Roberta Hines, played right here Saturday when the soprano sang two solos before the AFEPO-AMERICAN Employees Club, Mrs. West, who is his sister. The band and the English concert artists was enthusiastically received for her singing of "Sing, Sing, Bird On the Wing," and was awarded to men and women in "Sing Me Sleep," in German. She was accompanied by Miss Georgia McMechen. Junilia Hayes, a 13-year-old Chicago girl, played Dunne's "Chaconne," and "Sofergiere," by Greige.

THINGS THEATRICAL THINGS THEATRICAL By OREE McCOLLUM A Temple Is Desecrated There are those who will how vocationate that with some reason, because the Fidelity Amusement Company is razing an old, unused church to make way for the erection of a temple of the cinema. Why, there will possibly be unrestricted hilarity as the heartless villain forces the beautiful heroine to submit to his sensuous adoration. Mix will ride across the screen, slaying men right and left. Or, if the owners are ultra modern, perhaps you'll hear the bark of crook's revolvers as they death in those sound film underworld battles. Call it fogy, if you please, but there will be old-timers who will still be there, even if they are doing what the world is coming to next. Analyzing the possibilities in the venture, however, you'll find that there are many multitudes in the theatre. Instead of having possibly 1,000 attendance weekly you will see possibly 100 builders deducing for the profits which the white builders hope to make, there will be jobs for a ticket seller, and there will be jobs for a director and an operator. Perhaps that will help salve the spiritual wound. We think so. Minister Showmen Out at La Grange, ill, a group of management of a losing theatre, believing that it only needs a little religion to bolster up business. They will not answer. Here in our own city, suggestion has been made that churches take over the dark town, now the light town itself, but it is highly doubtful that the church organizations have reached the stage of efficiency necessary for operation. Ask any artist, who attempts to make his living give recitals or other entertainment, how he tries to bring three representative artists here in the past year, keeping the red ink off the books would be much bigger problem with the large companies throughout the year. But, why dwell upon the matter at all? The churches are not going to be the theatre here. It wouldn't be decent. Uniting Unions A. Jack Thomas, musician and teacher, suggests on the eve of the annual convention of the National Association of Negro Musicians that august body unite with the locals associated with the American Federation of Musicians forming a body controlled entirely by the race With artists like Carl Diton, Lillian Evanti, Hazel Harrison and Nathaniel Delt in its ranks, the association color-bearer of the higher type of music. The fact is that it looks down with some scorn upon the purveyors of the theatre and who are associated with the union. As a race union, we are prone to believe, the standards would be lowered. The mere fact that a quarrel between the federation gives its minority group. Most of the association members are teachers and concert artists and they are expected to be prejudice agile and less prone to the press, but are likely to garner as many shekels every year. Raising Your Own Bat. Written by L. H. Lentine. Journal. Written by H. L. H. Lentine. a dark picture of the future for colored photoplay. The fact is that Mr. Henry, whether under a spell of gloom or not, a no ray of hope. He says, instance. "It takes from one to two years to get the production costs back," he said. "It is good enough for second, third, and fourth runs—it is a financial failure. The team has to run, run, run, and succeeding runs. This is a well known fact both in white and colored pictures." It is a moment to tap at the producers themselves and says: "Censor boards are suspicious of all colored, picture. Why? Well, they are not suspicious of nothing but biteriness between the races . . . But I do know that the future of the colored picture, that is the same as the future of the colored film, not lie in the lap of the few colored theatres at present supporting this type of picture. It must find new audiences. It means better understanding between the races. A colored picture that endangers this understanding is the menace a theatre can screen." While the gentleman may be right in his assertion about the prices paid by a race film producer, a white man—we shall have to make sure that the statement has been made by one race film producer, a white man—we shall have to make sure that the statement has been made by a strange paradoxes of face. Faced with lower pay for chopping cotton, cutting hair and skin, we shall have to screen actor demands and gets more than a white man in Hollywood. Possibly it is true, but we doubt it.

There are deeds of the spirit from which nothing short of physical destruction can be expected. POPULAR FICTION But "Nickie" could not have died. Chew popular fiction does not run that way. The hero does all sorts of good deeds and because of them he is almost always centred on him to scarred, but solidum killed; but always victorious. put it. It is the return of the old Jewish notion that everybody who succeeds is good, everybody who escapes deserves to, everybody who fails is evil and everybody who falls victim to death's claws has committed some great error. So the whole scramble now is for sure to happen and destruction at the price will bring the highest ideals and the noblest purposes. The common pelution fiction plays the dual role of expressive current notion and increasing the sentiment in that direction. ing. Is there any wonder that we suffer in America and throughout the world a dearth of idealism and at the same time a desire that we suffer in the same scales and measured in tubs; when there is a lack of those things and the empty pleasure they give nervous wrecks, suicides, paring of friends are only a few of the tragic results. TRAGEDY Tragedy runs like a thread through all of our experiences. The good suffer with the evil, and it is increasingly so that the better an is the more he suffers, and the more liable he is to be cut off. In the affairs of the men of The first-born disc; the weak sickly child often outlives the bright and healthy; the boy boys through college and the university and loses his mind or health in the senior year; a wild child who has over the grade—crossing an age boundary to pieces by the express; a merchant fails the heartless big man who fixes the prizes lives in luxury and dies wrapped up in money; the poor honest public spirit politician is defeated the monied crook buys a prophetic reformer is shot to death by the enemies of happiness and progress; the innocent poor dry up in prison and the guilty rich revel in bar tored insecurities like a thread runs through all our experiences. Every man with any heart at all carries daily a burden of pain resulting from tragedies involving the good and the just yet it is these tragedies that give birth to movements, institutions and people. DEATH IS NEEDED There is nothing that would help to shake the American Negro out of his present state of lethargy than the taking of a goodly number of precious lives for a noble cause. The Jew in Russia has come to a position because of his antisemness to ally himself with a forward movement towards consequences. and suffer the consequence. It is asking to little of providence to ask for exemption from suffering and tragedy.

Set back beneath the street, with only the glare of smoke-enriched bulbs to make a pretense gift lighting, and the glare of the street where who seek to drink and dance—frequently to dance only—for the lowest possible expenditure. There in that chair and table a large room and foot of the long room of operators have not yet learned to charge one excessive price for soda water and under-size half pints of synthetic gel. In the room and one night resorts pulse with an unintelligible something usually referred to as primitive, it is declared, but down below the "Avenue" that quality is not even the word drunken drips in. Orchestra Not "Hot" Where "hot" so-called cotton picker orchestra blare forth their wild tunes elsewhere. here the four instruments, mellow and moderate synapony. Among the piano player, banjolist, saxophonist and drummer one catches nothing of the rhythmic movement of the middle wheel, or the swaying of bodies in the moonlight. Rather they suggest a combination from the high school, and the player. Beyond the dingy, once white tables and chairs, an honest-to-goodness bar graces one corner. With its mahogany finish, they leave away spilling beverages —possibly to be resold—and the proverbial plate glass mirror. The bartender, however, a slender youth whose mouth is drinking his own stuff stamps him a member of the new regime. Indeed he sets the mugs and glasses down with gentleness and grandiosity sweep of his forgerunners. Patrons Are Young There are four waitresses—if you can distinguish them from the guests who convey a sense of stumbling down the stairs Friday night a reporter was speedily piloted to a table. About four years ago you were told who had passed 25, and nearly all marked in some way by life's harshness. A waitress disengaged herself from the customer. "What'll you have?" "Ginger ale." "Ginger Ale Costs Dime." Return the amber liquid floating a piece of ice, she sidet it on the unkempt table. "Ninety, baby," she chirped as she deposited the remains of a dollar on the palm. And "thanks" as an encomium for her work. "Out on the "Avenue," the world was gasping for breath. It was hot. Here in the subway night club it was hard to hear. It didn't mind the sound of swearing. The piano player began forcing out a few chords of popular tune. He was joined by the saxophone, the banjo and the drum. With girls in dominance the dancing couples were sprinkled with female pairs. Going into the steps of the "bump" or the charleston in the dance hall, the crowd ceed in not being noticeably more vulgar than those subscription affairs at the Elks hall. And in the subway club there is unseeable door ticks on the walls. It is unexpected to spend a few nickels during the course of an evening. A plump brownskin young thing capered across the floor past the door. He was a wink. Interesting girl she was, in a place like this. With most of the men coatless and even less conventional in other parts-of-place and give them a sense of low as a coward house slippers, she was a contrast with her clear and intelligent face, her neat dress. And wink and a smile and the dance ended. Slipping into a chair beside the wife she snapped out: "What about a little time together tonight." "Nothing, dolphin," came the rejoin- "Then a drink?" Sure. Gin Costs 65 Cents The waitress deposited an under- size bottle of gin and a bottle of soda on the table along with two glasses. "Sixty-five," she cooed, took the mug and left.

"Yes, possibly so," the admitted young moth said. To the query about her name she said, one might as just cast her Jane Brown. The address gave was in 1000 N. 10th Avenue. She admitted quitting Douglass High School last February. "Yes," she said between gulps of gin and soda, "she was the second girl just get tired of it," she added with a shrug of the shoulders: She had "gone bad" over three years ago, since she was 18. "Are you sure she wants to have some tea, she again asked as she added the teg in bottle. The girl remained at the table waxing more conversational as the liquor warmed her up.

Pendleton, race attorney, scheduled to have been tried in the United States District Court, Monday, has been postponed until the middle of September. Mr. Pendleton, who was charged with making false statements in a bill of complaint filed against certain city and state officials was upbrided and forced to face disbarment charges by Judge W. C. Coleman. At the time of trial he will be defended by W. Ashle Hawkins and G. W. F. McMechen. Warner T. McGuinn will also sit in an advisory capacity. Mr. Pendleton is being backed by the Monumental Bar Association and has the support and sympathy of most of the members of the white Bar. The issues that bring this support is thought to be more important than those that have arisen in local political circles for some time. It is thought that Pendleton is being prosecuted more because he filed a suit against persons politically prominent than because of the actual misstatements in the bill, which occur in numerous cases without any drastic action being taken against the attorney involved. The problem to be solved, according to leading white attorney Wade Walker, is that in a statement to the AFRO, is whether an attorney is at liberty to file suit against the police when the police put class now holding the reins of power in the state or not. Mr. Pendleton had no statement to make this week. Afro office will be open every Saturday evening UNTIL 8 O'CLOCK. UNION DENTAL PARLORS Buckroe Beach, Va. BUCKROE BEACH, Va.-Mrs. W. T.

Cups were awarded to champions and runners-up, junior singles Reggie Hawkins won by default from Wm. Field and defeated Johnson, winner of the Johnson-Pritchard duck. A splendid showing by trouncing Ballard (who had defeated Warner, 6-2, 6-0; Ogburn, 6-2, 6-0; 5-0; the younger brother of the National Women's Singles Champion, Luhi, and Mrs. Alberta Blackwell who has also made an entitled record for heresy.

C.-Charles West, former Washington and Jefferson College athlete, and who next year will be a junior in the Howard University Medical School, has been named football coach at Howard to succeed Louis L. Watson who resigned his post, July 23. The new Howard coach formerly assisted Coach Watson with the Bison squad but squabble with the 1995 team. The type of system to be used, West resigned. West's appointment, however, carries with it only the duties as coach of Physical Education, also vacated by Watson, remains to be filled. West was an all-around athlete at Washington and Jeff, being a star back on the football team, a brilliant performer in track and field events. He was the winner of the Pentathlon at the Pennsylvania Relay Carnival in 1923, winning the javelin 100 meters run, and 400 meter run. Committee to Meet Here The Athletic Committee of the Howard Alumni Association, of which James W. Carter, of Washington is president, and James S. Avenue "Y" in Baltimore, Sunday, August 12th, at 5 p. m. and it is thought likely that at that time they will discuss the selection of a new diplomatic education at the Bison school. Many important matters await action on the part of this Committee. The C. I. A. A. situation should be handled by the H. U. Athletic Board has been at war with the C. I. A. A. In the opinion of many Howard Alumni, this war has reflected no credit on Howard. They say, had those acting for the H. U. Athletic Board had spirit, this situation would have been straightened ut long ago. The Athletic Committee meeting here on Sunday will call upon the President committee with instructions to settle these differences with the C. I. A. A. On professionalism in football, the on professionalism in football, the uncertain stand. The whole country knows that Dr. Johnson's stand is better, better, and Alumni should back him. Offered Watson Coach Contract It has been officially reported that President Johnson offered Watson a three-year contract as football coach and later a three-year contract as director of Physical Education. Watson, it is understood, insisted upon both contracts of three years' duration. Watson, who has since created a position for himself unlike that of any other professor on the campus, all other professors including their jobs through good behavior, have created only for the "good of the service." Alumni Open Drive The Howard University Alumni Association opens its $10 per year Howarddite drive on Monday night in Baltimore, with the opening of the National Alumni Association, which will be largely attended by Howardites. Dr. M. W. Johnson, president of Howard University, is expected to open this drive. Blue and white flowers will be pinned on Howard Alumni's bulletin board. Louise Young, Junior in Howard Medical School, assisted by an able committee, of Baltimore ladies. HAVANA RED SOX LOSE TO NEW CASTLE BUNCH PLAY SOX NEXT WEEK NEW CASTLE. Pa.—The Havana Red Sox ran into a stone boulder in defiance, when they bowed in defense to the Castle tussles by a 3-1 verdict. The Cubans felt compensated however in their 5-2 victory over the River Raisin club of the Michigan Ohio league. Friday, Morera twirling brilliant ball while a crowd estimated 90 fans looked on at Navarre Field. Only Four Hits The Cuban hurler held the home boys to four hits and registered six strike-outs. Mentel, center fielder of the River Raisins led the team for the home club, while Funes and Caldoso led the attack for the Havians, with three hits apiece Funes hitting for a double and Caldoso performing the longest home run on the longest homers ever seen on the grounds. The Red Sox visit Columbus, Ohio, appearing at the American Association League park on Sunday, August 12; on Monday, they play at Burgertown, Pa. near Pittsburgh and then depart for their Eastern invasion. They play at Baltimore on popular Baltimore Black Sox on August 19th, with double header at Baltimore on the latter date, and exhibitions following with the same club at Richmond, Norfolk and Peterson. They break their tump across Pennsylvania with Tuesday's game at Keyser, W. Va.: Wednesday, open date; Thursday, Fri.: Friday, Saturday, Liftstown, Pa.; and then into Baltimore.

Fla., with proposition hanging fire to play at Mexico City, during the winter months. THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, AUGUST 11, 1928 By THOMAS LURRY NEW YORK—George Perkins, a twenty-year-old southpaw, of Garfield, who reports to the Yankees when they return from the game, and a winning game to the Lincoln Giants at the Protectorial oval score 4 to 3, while in the second affair the Lloyd tribe easily defeated Jayneanne, N. Lloyd, and Perkins was twirling for the Garfield (N. J.) clan in the opener and he used a slow ball with timely effect, but when it came to breeding the Giants, he hitters lost control, issuing eleven passes, three of which were costly enough to turn the tide of events against the prospective major league. Summed up Perkins fanned himself to be something of a hitter by banging out a triple and two singles, and the youthful southpaw retained his blinding speed and burned the first two through Rojo for strikes and then the fixed prevailing opinion in baseball circles that you can't get through the Lincoln Giants proved true. Rojo caught Perkins' next one on the end of his shat and turned short, with a wicked grounder easily batting the throw to first. Rector laid down a perfect bunt and scored Rojo with the winning run. Visitors Score First The visitors were the first to score collecting a run in the initial inning on Trawick's single, Seaman's sacrifice, and Gandau's second. In the third the Jerseys reached Rector for three hits and two runs. Schaffer opened the frame with a single. Timko sacrificed Chiko doubled, scoring Schaffer, and Sensei Chiko home with a safe hit to right. Lincoln's on Perkins The lack of fast ball control proves costly. The next the pawn walked Scales, and Mason, and then grooved one for Lloyd, which the Lincoln manager hit safely to left, scoring Scales. The next the pawn walked Scales with a foul over the right field fence, then hit the next fast call into right, scoring Mason, but Lloyd on a fast peg from Chiko, but Timko was caught on a close play A base on balls was costly for the youthful Perkins in the fourth. Gray opened the frame with the field with Biggins, left scoring with the tying run. The inning looked good for the Lincoln, but Perkins changed to side arm curve ball pitching which seemed to stop the Lincoln's ball with the Grav led the Lincoln attack with two hits each and Eddie Rector won his thirteenth game in fourteen starts. Rector fanned four of the visits and kept their elbow scattered. Take Second Contest The second game was finished in the sixth inning after the Lincoln had scored four runs. Lloyd opened the frame with the field fence, and Rojo bunted, side down the base line. The visiting hurrier, Sam Vick, looked very chumpy fielding buns, and the eagle over his head. Grav then lay one down which the outfielder did, and easily beat it out at first. Grav turned Vick and the Bayonne on, and Grav bunt down the first base line, which so upset the visitors that Rojo scored Gisentator, went to third and Grav second, went to fourth and Grav third, and Gray with a single to center. Grav lead the Lincoln attack with four hits and Riggs collected three hits, and Grav hit his thirty-first came in which he has collected one or more hits.

Cuban Stars Defeat St. Stanislaus Nine The Cuban Stars had an easy time winning from the St. Stanislaus mine, 14 to 6, at Patterson Park Sunday, afternoon. THE PASSING REVIEW By BILL GIBSON AMONG THE UPSETS at the Olympic Games, and there were many of them, how few defenses suffered by the little trio of U. S. race athletes, Hubbard, Gordon, and Lewis. While Hubbard and Gordon failed to carry off the ribbons in the broad jump, they got some satisfaction in knowing that the U. S. won the event, even tho it was won by one Georgia Hamm. Hubbard's ankle was a handlecap but he had no alibis when the Georgia coached past him to win and Gordon also was alibis. What happened to Lewis, we don't know for his name was not among the quartet that played in the 1,600 meter relay. race. Plus, Edwards, too, flopped in the 800 meters, but satisfied himself in beating the great Lloyd of the family Hahn. But let it not be forgotten that there were some happy moments for dark athletes in the Dutch sprint. Jack London, wearing the colors of Great Britain, ran a thrilling race to place second to Percy Williams, Canadian, in the finals of the 100 meters, being beaten out by inches, after having qualified in the semi-finals by trimming some of the time left in the little ones second honors in the broad jump. But climaxing all of these performances was that of El Ouaf, the little Arab runner, who romped off to victory in the marathon from one of the classiest fields ever to face the starters gun. Ouaf, formerly a dispatch bearer in the French Moroccan Army, was an automobile factory worker. First flag to the top of the meter ahead of his nearest rival, Miguel Plaza, Chilean runner. Ouaf's time of 2 hours, 32 minutes, and 57 seconds, was less than 22 seconds short of the record made at Antwerp in Belgium, Kolemainen, of Finland. Credit for his victory in France but the little Arab carries much farther than that, and we think you know what we mean. G BECAUSE THEY WERE NEGROES, and for no other reason whatever, Robert Ball and Elmer Stout found themselves kicked out of the Public Links Association's golf tournament at Cobb's Greek last week. But being wise gentlemen, and thinkers as well as excellent golfers, Messrs. Ball and Stout tled themselves to a legal adviser to enter an injunction against tournament officials, succeeded themselves reinstalled, and then as a parting shot, quit the tournament We might pound on our Underwood at length to tell you what we think about the whole matter. But an article elsewhere on these pages, written by Gordon Mackay, white, sports and literature, says that he could be someone and argument and summary as one could wish to read. Mr. Mackay, a fair minded sport and GENTLEMAN, has proceeded to set down in no uncertain terms what he thinks of the matter. Read what he has to say, and if you aren't too near melted with the fire and heat in his words, write Mr. Mackay a letter and thank him for his sincere defense of our often stepped-up against contesters. I HAVE BEEN TOLD that one George, of the clan Godfrey, has given up all immediate hopes of a battle with the Basque Woodchopper in Barcelona, and has been signed for a bout soon with Roberto Roberti, George, so the story goes, had made all preparations for his ocean trip to the land of dancing senoritas, when all of a sudden he was told by a man about the 38,000 simulons, said to be living temporarily in a New York bank. George and his manager, Jimmy Dougherty found out that the money could not even be seen, much less touched, until AFTER the fight, both decided that the American climate was more heathful for them. Antony Goffrey is to earn his coffee and cakes and those of Dougherty by a series of bouts to be staged in the eastern section of the U. S. A. and possibly one or two across the Canadian border. Meanwhile he in the Quaker City and I also told that he hasn't lost a pound. AN EASTERN LEAGUE next season is still our cry mates, and if you'll just stand by I feel that this cold prediction and hope will ring true. Talked with baseball's sage and seer, Lloyd Thompson, Sunday, and that oracle did see it, seer Lloyd Thompson, with us in season oracle organized baseball will be in the saddle when the 1929 season rolls. Already there are whispers that the corpulent Colonel Jacob Strothers will seek to summon together his band of Giants at Harrisburg and bring them under the protecting arm of James, of the Keenan affiliation, is no doubt ready right now to come in out of the rain, and it is not too much to presume that practically every club has learned its lesson from the MZZM team. MZZM charachars have not yet any too much money this season, neither have they had any surplus of harmony in their family organization. In quest of the lilac lure they are to make an invasion of the West, taking in Detroit, Chicago, St. Louis, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, and Milton, and evidently use that pickings will be better there, for a short stretch, at least, than they will be souping in the Eastern sector. Nor have the Black Sox been spanned by difficulties of getting suitable pitchers, and once they have been "up a tree" for a game, and their playing, during midseason, and even before that, of pickup teams and sandlotists, should be enough proof that they have found it a little tough in picking up a consistently classy brand of competition. Of mediocre and third rate competition by any teams, and then attempting a spurt against bona fide A-1 competition, works havoc with any team, and may account for a number of the losses suffered by the locals this season. The real significance we feel that the big league clubs would be among the first to find it out and then discontinue it. We believe the boom for organized baseball is gathering more speed as the days pass and hope there won't be as many "foolish virgin" when the 1929 season rolls around. G THE DOE BUCKET is in for a good upset when the national tennis stars gather at Bordentown Monday week. You may not agree, but we won't ask for our opinion until after the first round. The real significance of the first ten in the men's singles. There are Ted Thompson, present king of the roost, Eyre Satch, Ellwood Downdown, Sylly Smith, Dick Hudlin, Marcellus Goff, John McGriff, C. W. Furlonge, M. E. DuBissette, and Louis Jones, in addition Egger, and the rest of the team. And in the case of a comeback, but in praise that he never gone back. Of course you are going to watch especially Numbers One and Two, but keep an eye also on Nos. 3, 4, and 5—there will be some changes in the game. Watch the other one, and fight each other almost bitterly all this season, each defeating the other once in tournament play. Dr. Smith just won the men's singles title in the Pennsylvania tournament. Watch the women the Juniors too. Maybe you noticed that Miss Ora has just bounced defeat to Miss Ora Washington in Philadelphia, and that Miss Issa Channels won the ladies singles in the West Virginia Open tournament. All of these incidents have meaning. Watch the Juniors coming up, juniors today rounding into form under experience and with countless opportunities for the You can mark this down in your notebook. Bordentown is to wit- ness some startling upsets. Selah. G AS TO THE REASON for postponing the closed city tennis tour- ment until next week, few people may know, but many are at least thinking that the tennis plans were started for the eliminations schedu- led for this week to determine the best players in Baltimore, the winners of the tourney to be sent to Bordentown. Also three weeks ago there were velled hints that some choices had already been made for the I have been told authoritatively that some "dark horse" were in excellent trim for the matches THIS WEEK, but that some of the "stars" were not so forty. Then we'll have to postpone the tournament. Inquiry. Inquiry. Inquiry. Why the tournament should be postponed. Rather, instead of having any notice sent us that the tournament had been postponed we had to appoint ourselves a committee of one and conduct a little training campaign of our own to find out what it was all about. Why, we ask you, we were not informed officially that the tournament had been postponed. Playing the play means that the local players must rush out of their own tournament into the nationals without a breathing spell. Is that nice? Even if there were not enough money in sight to purchase all the trophies I don't think that anyone in Baltimore would mind waiting a while for his prize. Then the nationals might wait a little longer. Take a chance on running into bad weather next week and bloop. there goes your tournament. If we are to follow things literally, "Rap" Dixon is the only Black Sox player in town, for while the other players have taken to the vari-colored hose "Rap" still clings to his "black sox." "Babo Ruth" Wilson was back in the game Sunday, and were the fans glad to see him? He got a big ovation on his play in the field the old band must be coming along nicely. Yes, he got his home run. And coming back to Monsieur Dixon, would you believe this boy wasn't satisfied with one home run? He had to hog the show by getting two. If you waited to see a disappointed man you should have seen Wilson as the game ended. "Oruah" Holloway had just broken up the hose with the winning run. There were none out, and it was the "Babe" turn at bat. Imagine his wrath. Yokely had his off day Sunday, walking six men and falling to live FAN-SEES up to his strikeout reputation. Excellent support of his mates, however, saved him the embarrassment of defeat. Cleo Smith, lately of the Philadelphia Tigers, is holding down the hot corner man Wilson shifted the Jackson place and the Sunday it seems, will draw the regular assignment at short over "Scrapy Brown. Lindsey is a more consistent hitter. Many fans have remarked that they would like to see Wilson back at his old job at first base. Ben Taylor could get a rest then, and have a chance to get a good view of his charges. The boy, Jess Hubbard, is dependable, and don't let anybody tell you differently. He can be depended on to hit in a pinch and to pull the ball down and by the way, he toles all that avoiduplots pretty fast when he's on the paths, too. The Black Sox left field foul line frequently foops spectators as many balls that look as if they are fouls are really fair balls. On one occasion an All-Star bat- ter named Brian Wilson had sampled Brian Wilson. FOUR HOMERS HIT AS BLACK SOX WIN PAIR STARS NO TROUBLE Ben Taylor's Black Sox twice sent Poke Wynalne's All-Stars behind the clouds of defeat at Maryland Park, Sunday, the counts being 6-5 and 8-3. But that is not saying that the Stars did not win, primarily at in the first game it looked for a while as it the contest would have to go into extra innings. Yokely toled the hillock for the locus, being opposed by the innings, and Hummer, who essayed the relief role. "Babe" In Lineup "Babe Ruth" Wilson was in the line-up Sunday, holding down the third station in a part of the first game and the second station in the second game and the third, white boys as much as he might have expected for they nicked him for nine binges, bunching their hits to make their runs count, including two runs given to the first and the second, a runner from third base. The Sox nicked Kelly and Hummer for 14 safeties but could squeeze only a half dozen runs out of them. The first two frames were scoreless, with the Stars tallying once in the third and the Sox twice in their half of No. 3. Thomas walked, and Koening, when Yokely booted his easy bun, pulled up to the first. Koening hit the third strike and Reiser was hit by Yokely. Koenig being nailed at the mid-way bag.

Over Raps Golf Office At Praises Ball And Days Golf Body Snobbish And We at Players Qualified For Tournamen They Committed—Not In Georgia Writer Raps Golf Officials But Praises Ball And Stout Mackay Says Golf Body Snobbish And Weak-Kneed—Fact That Players Qualified For Tournament Only "Crime" They Commit—Not In Georgia Now. BY GORDON MACKAY (In The Philadelphia Record) Golf is not a game for snobs, although snobs play golf. It remained for the organization that should be the most democratic of all golf bodies to show real evidence of the power of America, which held its annual tournament on the links of Cobbs Creek. We feel that the ouster of two colored golfers, who took recourse to law, as they undoubtedly were right in doing, was due not so much to the charges uttered by the tone of the organization as to tournament. the Every move made in this connection most certainly shed no luster on the authors of this outrage. Two colored golfers, who had every right in the world to enter a public links tournament and who had paid the trance fee as befits all entrants, were suddenly out of the tournament. PAPERS TRUE SOFT PEDAL Every effort was made the soft pedal on their eviction. The member of the Fourth Estate were importted to say nothing about it. Some weak-kneed members were ready to acquiesce in this request, but others played the role has always been traditionally enacted to leave their newspapers in the lurch if they saw that they knew would come swiftly to the court this trick against the respectful ones that hammed it to be dark. table Emphasis story is story blazoned to the world. We have never read move puerile reasons for barring golfers. First, a man put down a six on his card, where he had shot a seven. Moral turpitude in golf we presume to be the basis of agility against him. He was ousted, but that rid the tournament. To rid the public links affair of the other required some finesse, some strategy. Hence he was kicked out of the tournament because of some childish reason that sounded as foolish as it was. MEN KNEW THEY WEREENT IN GEORGIA These Negroes, however, were made of stouter stock then the average run of golfer. They knew their own, and realized that they were playing golf. Hence they went to one of their own race, a Magistrate of parts and a citizen of decency, if not of renown, and told him their plight. He didn't hesitate a moment. He went straight to Judge MacNeille, cousin Daniel come to judgment. The latter agreed to issue an injunction. and then came the public links of awaiting the arm of the law, these gentlemen behind the public links tournament did a piece of Napoleonic retraining. They threatened to carry the tournament out of the county, so that theceedings could not be used legally. They added tinge to the general belief that the whole thing in the first place was conceived in snobery and cradled in the worst sort of racial prejudice. **BLOT ON THE GAME OF GOLF** Men who are neither addicted to golf, nor bearing arms for every cause that leaps into print, have become incensed over the game of golf. Philadelphia is a city of liberal describes no creed, class, race or religion which it. It always stood for the rights of man, the honor of the Constitution and squareness and fair dealing to all citizens worthy of such boon, whether they be white or black. **GOLF OFFICIALS ACTED LIKE KLUXERS** Consequently this crime committed by these Negroes, of qualifying for the tournament, is one that will find the average citizen. It certainly has been a rebuke to the public and the public links body the first to bravely body shirt in sport. The persons who instil the practice, the men behind this move, knew what motivated them. But their action looked at in the white light of the day looks more like the practice of the hooded knights of the Three Kinds than the action of stout men. (Joe this crime committed by these Negroes, or, at best, is one that will find the average citizen real to wave the bloody shot.

The men behind this scheme might also realize that they are the guests of the city of Brotherly Love. BALL AND STOUT BETTER GOLFERS The sponsors for this section may be within their technical rights as officers of the club. But it looks darned bad from where the writer sits. It might have been better explained if there had not been rumbles of dissatisfaction among this elite of the links when they were of the candidates for the title were Negroes. Not that, but these chaps had the effrontery to qualify and replace gaelian golfers who had lighter clubs. hors for this action may be within their tech association. But it looks darned bad from what we have been better explained from among the others, who link them to the title were Negroes. Not alone that,tery to qualify and replace Caucasian golfers or her approach shots, how the title may view this golf hasn't the association known as the Public Life with the great mass of the people. Usually golf is by those directly concerned and involved is at stake. The man to enjoy the thing for which golfers paid their fee, the sable exiles put up stood on parity with everyone else in the town, never have been the tournament of democracy, best autocracy of golfmen. skins but poorest. We show the Courts may view this. golf hasn't been helped a particle. Nor has that association known as the Public Links Association been helped with the great mass of the people. Usually golf rosters are to be settled by those directly concerned and involved. But in this case a principle is an skate it is the right of every man to enjoy the thing for which he has paid. The banned golfers paid their fee, the sable exiles put up their entrance title. They stood in parity with everyone else in the tournament, and would probably never have been bothered, never have been troubled but they not foolishly qualified in a tournament of democracy, whose actions best autocracy of coldism. WHY ALL THE RUCKUS? I did these colored golfers have gone over the they have paid their fee, gone off from the e such rotten scores that they would have auto competition? Instead they said it with driver a coercs of golf, the boys who hate clubdom aristocracy, found this out they were dismay they couldn't add enough extra shots to their cars. So they did the same—they charges an extra fee for a seasoned golfer and names which never reached the magic laugh aloud. Why could not these colored golfers have gone over the top properly? Why couldn't they have paid their fee, gone off from the first tee and promptly made such rotten scores that they would have automatically been ousted from competition? Instead they said it with driver and mashie, when the democrats of golf, the boys who hate clubdom because of their cliques and its aristocracy, found this out they were dismissed. They had the fees, but they couldn't add enough cards to bar the colored brothers. So they didn't best thing—they thought—they brought the charges made many a seasoned golf smile and many a hardened set of games which never reached the magic figure of being the 100% loud aloud. NORN WAY & EARL GROSS Of course, it is possible that the men who started this thing may have been schemed of the things that they had. If they haven't by the time they at least be consistent.

McMillan, who was among a crowd of pedestrians, gathered at the corner of McMechen and Division strelts, told the driver of one of the vehicles to obtain the names of several witnesses as the officer attempted to disperse the crowd. As the driver of the other vehicle was white, McMillan said that he feared the race driver might be taken advantage of.

IVY In France a current of influence is just now making itself felt which is resulting in the writing and publishing of many books on the Negro. The past year has seen from the press and now M. Paul Morand adds a fifth, MAGIE NOIRE (Black Art, or Black Magic). As a writer M. Morand has already distinguished himself with the sequentive war-war pictures he has written for European society, which he known as few writers's know it. M. Morand is also one of the few French cosmopolitans. Most Frenchmen are provincial. He was born in Paris but later moved to England, where he was manager of the Imperial bronze foundry in Saint Petersburg. At the age of thirteen, on the advice of his father, he sent him to England to enter Oxford. Upon the outbreak of the War he returned to France where he resumed his studies, went back to England, remaining there until 1919, when he returned to Paris to enter society and the French civil service. He was a desirous secretary and special attacke he has seen service in the leading European capitals. And he has also been to Asia in the same 4. French Van Vechten A French. This is a writer is a member of that modern school of disillusioned sophisticates, so ably represented in America by Ms. M. Vernon and in Italy by Mr. Aldo Huxu. These writers profess to be finite, and are content merely to record. They have no particular love for their fellow men and manners, and they are not often the ones who nonsense. They are attracted by the surface of life the night-clubs, the theaters, love-combats, and the other innumerable manners. These artistic notations are impressed on the reader by focusing attention and study in their story's exceptional characters. This is the method and the fact that he wrote the preface to the French version of NIGGER HEAVEN, LES PARADIS DES NEGRES tells us what we are to expect in MAGIC In 28 Countries The author gets enough assurance to dare write about Negroes from the following, facts which he puts at the head of the book. In 1902 a couple of American Negroes doing he cake-walk at the Nouveau Cirque; in 1914, the Senegalese sharpshooters marching down the boulevard Sainte Anne; in 1916, a walk with the Antillian Negro, Saint Léger Leger, about creole poetry and rum; in 1919, Dartus Milhaud, back from Brazil; in 1921, about black Bahia; in 1922, Havana, New Orleans, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Virginia, the Carolinas, Charleston Harlem, Guadeloupe, Marinique, Trinidad, Curacao, Saint Lucia, Haiti, Mississippi; in 1928, Dakar, Gauaï, Fouta-Dialon, the Sudan, the South of the Sahara, the Niger, Timbuctou, the Mossi country, and the Ivory Coast. At 24 Nrg of 50,000 kilometers and 28 Nrg Now let us see what M. Morand learned in the first eight stories it is given in eight stories classified under the three heads of the States of America, and "Africa." Black Czar "The Black Gear". This is the story of Occide the Haitian. "a hand-some mulatto brute in spite of his forty-five years." Occide's ordinary friends. He lives smart and keep his mouth shut, his opinions are not for the public but for himself alone; and he can even keep a secret. The only man with Pharamond, he associates with Pharamond, he has a common passion for duck hunting. Occide lives in a hut with an old woman, a black pie, and two eese. He has a faithful education and dinner at Paris. "Too poor for Paris, eaten up with an inferiority complex he lives within his shell of ignorance, knowledge, and hate in an abstract world, reading, writing, and speaking, which him to socialism." One might he was passing through Pele-de- Chose, the American quarter of Port-au-Prince, he passed the American Club "where no Haitian could enter, since colored men were excluded". Occlude feels that the hour has come, so he goes home, gets a bomb out of his zinc trunk, returns to his home, and escapes and hides on a plantation the Santo-Domingian border, where he disguises himself and leads a simple life. War between America and Japan gives Occlude opportunity to escape out the Americans, and to set himself up as dictator. "Occlude now dreams of being a sentinel to the black world, a charg-cannon attacker, a nose of the American State." He could make Haiti, the negro of Moscow. Vengeance In throwing the bomb into the American Club he got not personal vengeance, but did it, as the act of revolution. Boltons revolted revolutionary. So he charges Port-au-Prince into Octoberville; creates a Union of the Socialist Republicans of Haiti; forms a black Committee; and nationalizes "sugar, pineapples, and women", reasoning that since "sex, bananas, and coconuts are gifts of nature", they should Dictator expels all foreigners from Haiti; on the 17th he instituted free movies and did away with marriage; on the 18th family, Voodoo was established as the national culte and every Haitian was made a soldier. "Haiti is calm" and Occide is at the heart of the Pacific war. Voodoo comes back to reoccupy Haiti and to restore order, and Occide flees the island with a $10,000 reward over his head, and marries his helplesses where lives under the name of Mr. Tout-blanc (All White). "Congo" "Congo" is the story of an American Negro dancer who is a sensation in the European music halls she is superstigious and in Paris goes to consult a witch doctor; returns to America; and commits suicide when she learns of the death of her grandmother. "Charleston" "Charleston is" the story of a Southern white woman who finds that France can turn her hostility for Nertego into affection. She was a French girl who was the result of a harrowing experience during the days of Reconstruction has an intense dislike for all Nertego. It became a mania with her. So to cure her her father sent her to Canada. It was in Montreal that she met a man she married there and lived there for more than twenty years." Away From Dixie Away from the South so long she forgot all about Negroes seldom seeing them in Canada, until she heard a micro-internet calling her. Notastica, a return to Charleston, disappointment, and she returns North to live in New York. She sees Negroes in the Broadway Revues. She gets in with a smart, set, and the Harlem sababane Cane, etc. Florence Bit was the star in one. How she admired Miss Bit. until "I learned that my husband lent her; to have a colored mistress nuts you all right with Wall Street; to be deceived him with Nero elevator boys, to whom she gave our money". In Paris Soon after this revelation she comes to live in Paris, "One thing I learned from her was French women like ourselves who dared to show themselves in public with colored people." One day she saw a hurly black chauffeur wanting to show herself. The net and embraced, but to her surprise no one nailed the least attention to them. The more she thought about herself the question, "Why not?" "I could not help but dream about Neroces in this large cityized city where I was living," she had always thought that they were very powerful — I wanted to see." But it seems that Paris never afforded her this opportunity: she knew no one there who could help her, so she left the city for a while. THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, AUGUST 11, 1928 and went to Valesure. "A few days after my arrival I went out to take a walk in the park, evening; so warm that I was trying to get a breath of air. Turning out of the highway I saw a camp. The campers were already lighted, by large candles. Chases After Soldiers Suddenly I met a sentinel. He appeared to me blacker and more handsome than Negroes in America. Within certain circles we saw that she especially admired, so she tried to enter the camp to see him, but the sentinel refused her admission. She said that but the sentinel always refused her admission. After her last unsuccessful night she "went to Juanes-Función" to play with some players with some American didn't. We drank much champagne. There was an American jazz band, colored, the saxophone and the flute, the air that disdainful air that Negroes go soon after they arrive in France, although lacking while in America, a room would stop her play a solo with an admirable species of insolence: Charleston, made in Carolina, Charleston! All the evening he played — he played for me. He danced and sang. He played for me. He plaued, encouraged him; the Americans were furious. Needling air, I went out — alone, on to the main highway. He followed me. He was poor. That was what he was spending much money. The speaker stops, her narrative is taken up by her. The Negro in "The Klu-Klu-Xlan in France!" "A Negro had been summarily executed near Antibes. An American Negro a member of a jazz band now playin' with the Negroes dawned with eight-six bullets in his skin. On the dead body a note: "Respect white women! signed: K. K. K. Negro's tragedy in the heart of France." Excelsior "Excelsior" is the story of Octavius Bloom, of Excelsior, Georgia, who is a businesswoman and warre, he proceeds to pass for white. He gets into the best social circles and goes on goes until his wife, Pocahontas, establishes dark. The colony now says that the Blooms are Italianes and Poole's are Africanized fact that they are dirty Negroes" and the whites flee in alarm. "So in the spring real-estate values had gone up," the Hill was for sale. Octavius sees a chance to create a NEGRO colony, goes to New York and Chicago and lays out the plan and with the influence of the CRIS-IS, make his scheme a reality. The story ends with Bloom a millionaire. Syracuse "Syracuse or the Panther Man" is the story of a civilized American man who was a member of African congress in Brussels, gets a ticket to the Congo Museum of Leopold, where, at sight of the Primate Institute, he sees a monkey. Good By New York "Goodbye New York" is of the same type. A wealthy and cultured man, who lives in the monochrome lot, goes, in the monmouth, on a cruise to French Africa. After a few days in the country her astatic inexperience assert themselves and she goes native. Shooting Stars "The People of the Shooting Stars" is a story of how African superstition results in the ruin of two Syrian peddlers. Hornless Goat "The Hornless Goat" tells about the murder of an African man who follows a cannibalistic orgy in which the "hornless goats" eat their dead Silliest Book In some respects this book of Morand seems the silvest book that I have ever run across. Why should a wealthy and cultured woman like an artist be venerated by Dr. Vamp, suddenly lose their venering of civilization upon their first contact with Africa? The book aims at truth, not many respects is at truth, not many respects is at life, not sadness and more sordid than it is, like Soupault, he stresses Negro sensuality, Negro superstition, Negro irresponsibilities, and Negro laziness, to the detriment of its essential value. This is point, I think. I glean from this paragraph on Ocidae: "Between the parrafin record of the phonograph and the taut goat skin of the drum, the instrument, and midway between the body and the soul. Africa and America, swuva Ocidae". That is the Nerro is only superficially civilized; which explains, more so, us to believe, characters like Cenzo, Dr. Vamp, and Mrs. Orfel. Morand explores the Negro habitat but not the Negro soul. Strange to say the book is accompanied by a list of Columbia students who should hear "Poor Papa," "Cool River," "Muddy Water," etc. all Negro blues records, with the exception of a sermon by the Reverend J. Frenchmen should hear these records is given by M. Pierre Mac Orlan. The book is well written, and is in some respects better than NIGGER HEAV- In Darker Baltimore BY RALPH MATTHEWS Visiting Belair Some hot night when the city gets under your skin, as it probably will on hot nights, jump in your car, or take a ride into the city and take a ride out into the country. Unless you are mady in love, just riding in the country won't be a good place to be. You are going someplace in particular. While Belair isn't what you would call a very particular place it is at home for a fly-by-night excursion. Steve Moore's Park About the first thing you will see as you approach the town is Steve Moore's Park. Steve Moore's Park is in the floor that is quite an attraction in that neck of the woods. Young blades and their gals come from a radius of 40 miles in tumble down toowers of not so middled jollective jobs after trodding the fields all day behind a plow. At Steve Moore's park you get a tailory that you hear so much about by paying 25 cents for a chicken sandwich that in the profiling city would probably cost you a dime. You are interested in such things, you will find bootleggers, who for high powered salesmanship can play rings around, and staff themselves from their own corn-fields, and naturally can understell our local scaffold who buy thru a middle man. You can handle thing about Steve Moore's park is that his brother, Johnnie Moore, operates another park in opposition on the other side of town. That gives you an idea of the brand's cherished love they grow and Belair. Champion Flu Swatter As you proceed into town there are several interesting places and folks that they will probably point out to you. For instance, you can go home of Uncle Jacob Bishop, who unless a new record has been hung up, is the champion fly swatter of the country as a messenger in a bank, but there aren't many messages to carry around Belair, so he spent his spare time swatting the leaves of trees before he started to count them and take his fly swatting seriously. Just what the actual figure was I did not know, but in his work can swat a powerful lot of files during a summer. They might even show you his wife Aunt Katie Bishop who rumor says missed a rumor in the last 20 years. He Bought Horses Going further they will probably show you the place where Uncle Joe Toney used to live with his family of 20 odd. The house was a one story building, and where he slept all of his family is still a mystery around those parts. Besides being unusually gifted in offering long and sonorous praises, he also sold more horses than any man in the country. The selling was generally confined to the man who operates the fertilizer factory. Uncle Joe Toney bought were not really horses, they were what you could in justice call only 'orses. Whatever else Uncle Orses lacked his horses, you could count them. Whenever Uncle Joe Toney stayed away from prayer meeting nobody asked any questions. They knew he was sitting up with a sick horse. The horse sleeps in the School House.

Special attention given Churches, Lodges and Outings 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 over-stimulation during infancy, caused by the need to play and mated toy for the amusement of parents, relatives and friends. Baby may be played with, but not for more than 1 hour daily. Beyond that, being handled, tickled, caused to laugh or even scream, when something irritates it, invades with cause irritation, crying or sleeplessness. Fretfulness, crying and sleeplessness from this cause can be reduced by baby with more consideration, but when you just can't see what is making baby restless or upset, better give it a calming. It's amazing to see how quickly it calms baby's nerves and soothes him to sleep; yet it contains a vegetable—the recipe is on the wrapper. Leading physicians *describe it for colic, cholera, diarrhea and bowels, feverishness, loss of sleep and all other "upsets" of babyhood. Over 25 million bottles used shows its overwhelming popularity. With each bottle of Castoria, you get a book on Motherhood, worries about the school and the Fletcher's signature on the package so you'll get genuine Castoria. There are many imitations. street they might even point out the school house. The new school house sits beside the old school house and it's the old school house that is the most important. There they will tell you of how Prof. Howard Washington applied the rod with telling effect on the pupils and it motivated his work and how no mother dared find fault with him for his pains.

You'll learn how at the age of al- lah, you had a history of ab- lation, because no one actually knew how old Miss Ware was, she inher- tained a permanent legacy and is now living in 1868. Historical Places On the other side of town they will point out the home of John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Abraham Lincoln, and show you the courthouse in front of which there stood the monument in honor of that character. There was always mystery about that monument. John Wilkes Booth was one of the few local boys who went to the big city and made good, and they wanted to honor him, but as time wore on and Lincoln grew in popularity, the younger generation added the monument isn't there any more. Coming back they might point out the old Kingsville Inn, where George Washington is said to have had his headquarters when he was reeled out of the city.

Is there anything wrong in my going around with a young man 25, who is divorced? He seems to say it is wrong but my parents say it is wrong because he has been married—PEG. Dear Peg: In a case like this I would say let your conscience be your guide. That is, if you feel that marriage is all right for you to go around with the young man. On the other hand, if you feel that marriage lasts until death parts, you can be for you to find a single boy friend. Then, too, you should consider the cause. If the fault was largely the fault, if the fault was largely the fault, you can not exempt him to treat you any better. Your parents are probably thinking better than you that most divorced people are as uphappy in their freedom as they wage in their marriage. However, there are many single men if you will look around. MARYLAND FREEDICK, Ms. —The F. C. C. Club under the guidance of their president, Miss Gertrude Jones and her father, Prof. N. F. C.

Fred Palmer Librarians, gives you to a hailman, stainless, easy-to-apply preparation for removing preperation from your skin. Ask for a 326 jar of "Hid," used as directed, and if you don't find it the most delightful preparation of its kind you ever need, set your money back. Hid will harness preperation and remove the preperation in a long time, will not stall the most delicate undergarments nor injure the most tender skin. If your desire cannot supply Hid, send 326 for full size jar. Dr. Fred Palmer's Librarians. Depth. 24. DULL HEADACHE BACKACHE and Pains In Sides "For fifteen years I have been using Black-Draught, when needed, for biliousness and constipation," says Mr. J. O. Woolard, of Oriental, N. C., "and I have always found it to be reliable and effective. It certainly comes up to all the good things that are said for it, and I am glad to recommend it. "I have found that Thedford's BLACK-DRAUGHT purges the system of the poisons which accumulate when the organs do not act properly, and I would not be without it. "I always give Black-Draught to the children for colds (when a laxative is needed). It is fine for that. "My trouble is chiefly constipation which is always accompanied by dull headache, backache, and pains in my sides. I think Black-Draught is the quickest and best relief for this."

WITH PLAYGROUNDS Nearby City Points Way To Local Folk In Matter Of Equal Equipment WHITES CO-OPERATE TO STAGE BENEFIT grounds After Expose Compared with the little town of York, Pa., Baltimore is a back number when it comes to providing equipment and furnishing workers for its race children, the AFRO-AMERICAN learned this week. While all of the children in York and the white children in Baltimore comp and play in comfortably equipped and adequately supervised play spaces, race children, Baltimore still still enjoy their play to the confines of sun-backed brick areas where a very small sand bin, possibly with sand in it, is the only sort of "apparatus" in Equal Equipment In York, Negro and white playgrounds have the same equipment and the children work with materials and equipment in the playground. At the Morvian playground in York, are three small swings, five large ones, a merry-go-round, four see-saws, sand boxes, backyard playground, and an攀树. There is also a small baseball diamond, and despite the fact that the playground is primarily for face children, large numbers of white children are there daily, having a good time too. S65 A Month The playground leader, with her assistants, teaches woodwork and other arts; the materials are furnished by the city. These teachers are paid a salary of $1,000 per year for services during the summer months. *Whites Help in the Benefit* Last Saturday evening, the playground workers, under the direction of Henry Hopewell, principal of the two Negro schools in York, added material by a number of white students to the playground. For the purpose of raising funds with which to buy a fence to enclose the playground, Weser钢琴公司 donated a piano for the occasion and the Laberta brothers, white, staged in exhibit bout of six rounds. Mrs. Joana Harris, supervisor of all the playgrounds, was an interested specimen for the exhibition. Henry Howard's orchestra. Miss Louise Williams sang several selections. Jos Bias presented some comedy sketches. Honest Dance, ivian comedy, and comedy by Raymond Rhodes and Harrison Hanluk entertained with duets. *Children Help* An admission fee of $10 cents was charged and soft drinks, ice cream and watermelon were sold, several of the white children aiding in the selling. This energetic spirit in York has been engendered by the interest taking in the children, such interest awakening, the citizens to sense their own responsibility. Baltimore Antiquates Because Baltimore has not furnished the workers to simulate the children in aiding the municipality in putting over a comprehensive playground program for its race children, Baltimore's race playgrounds have fallen to the woofal state, so that to designate playgrounds is little short of a misoner. Some Sand Now Since the AFRO-AMERICAN called attention to the fact that the playgrounds, or sand for the children, or had dirty sand in the bins, clean sand has been sent to several of the schools, though an AFRO reporter found children playing with sand that brick masses were using for mixing mortar. It was the only sand that they had given them. RAP BIG TIME PASTOR AT MINISTER'S MEET More Real Pleat And Less Revely Needed Says Rev. A. R. V兰anl- More, real piety and less hanging around the streets, using unbecoming language was urged by the Rev. A. Wheeler at the Ministers Meeting, Monday. The speaker also rapped the so-called big minister whom he declared took every occasion offered to him, more faithful, but struggling brother. Want Money In A lively debate followed a statement made by the Rev. J. Haywood, who helped sell ice-cream at a previous conference entertainment, of holding back money. In the presence of his committee, he was forced to draft young people who were there. The Rev. L. Reynolds spoke in defense of those from his church, saying he has seen his members turn their money. Concerning the same entertainment, the Rev. Simon Williamson accused the Rev. R. Walter, of Massachusetts, and the Rev D. G. Hays. In a speech the former said this minister was the perfect, but God does the best he can when he chooses them as leaders. It is only by his keeping on his requirements that the minister can be the proper leader. The Rev. Hays commended the minister as Baptists he developed. Recently, he declared, ministers of their denomination used to deceive education. The pastor also spoke highly of the Baptists' building tenacity in sticking to their beliefs. Among other visitors were the Rev M. Robert and the Rev. W. D. Yerbert. According to the report of the secretary, the Rev. D. Bryant, $85.51 had been raised this year by the department, out leaving a balance of $12.51. Since this was the closing session until September, the Rev. Junius Gray moderator, the Rev. John H. invited the pastor to attend his meeting that convenes every Tuesday. He also brought to the ministerial information that he could secure a few round-trip tickets to the conference in Louisville, KY. at $15. W. Allen, the moderator of the Rev. J. A. Green, vice moderator, presided. Further and more conclusive proof that Baltimore does not take care of its own is evidenced by this scene at School 110, Wassche near Fremont avenue, where race children are supposed to play. The lack of equipment and protruding corners of steps make it not only unhaving, but dangerous. Staff Pluko WHITE Improved HAIR DRESSING Price 50¢ PREPARED ONLY BY The Pluko Company MEMPHIS, TENN.

Com'y Has Econ'my Policy CHICAGO, Ill.—Despite the fact that several big white insurance companies still bar colored risks on the ground that the death rate among black writers Mutual Insurance Company has proven that a policy virtually the same as that written for whites can be written for the same price for colored.

Peun Hotel 2,500 CROWD SHILOH GOSPEL MEETING 2,500 CROWD SHILOH GOSPEL MEETING Bix Week Evangelistic Services Draw Mammoth Attendance Nightly "BLACK BILLY SUNDAY" The immorality and moral turpitude we hear so much of today is no new thing to the church, but it is known in evangelist circles as the "Black Billy Sunday", told an audience of 2,000 who crowded the camp meeting tent of the Black Baptist Church, Wednesday. "Back in the days of Moses, the people, both young and old, were breaking the laws of the moral code and Greed is the cause of most of the broken homes today, he said, because when a woman sees a man who can kill her, she will more ease than her husband, she will leave him and men forseke their wives when they become ill and lose their beauty. "Despite Hypocrite A sinner admires a man who lives like he preaches, but despises a hypocrite who lives on a big front while in the church. The minister who grasps after the silver dollar and has little of the holy heart, was scored by the evangelist. Largest Tent The Shilch Camp Meeting, which is being conducted under the direction of the levit at the levit held a tent at the corner of Presmanst and Strickler streets. The tent, which has a seating capacity of 2,300, is said to have spared for religious services in Maryland. The Rev.

The young woman is in a serious condition with little hope of recovery.

Davis, Who Admires Darrow. Saved $1,800 While In Penitentiary, Collected 500 Volume Library and Invented Gas Engine Device. "Work" beats "prayer" in getting where you want to! this world, George W. Davis, who walked out of the Maryland Penitentiary today with $1800 cash, a law diploma and a blue print for a gas device in his pocket, told an AFRO-AMERI-IOA reporter. Davis gives one the impression more of a college professor than a man who has spent 11 years behind prison bars and mingling with hardened prisoners, is unusually versatile and answers questions readily, manifesting interest in the inter- foreman of a department in the pants shop. He invented a battery valve for gas masks which has patented and which he says, is a great improvement over the popper and sleeve valve types. In addition he has made several electric stoves and accessories. Reads Afro Davis exhibited several clippings from the Afro-stove and often newspapers, stating that he made it a habit to read the AFRO regularly. Besides compiling a law course and a course in finger print reading, Davis has acquired a 500 volume library. They include Dr. Ellicott's Five Foot Shelf of Books, and Haldeman Julius' Baby Library. *Included also in the number are most of the Greek classics and the works of Emerson, Bernard Shaw and John Burroughs. Darrow Favorite "My favorite author is Clarence Darrow," declared Mr. Davis. "The fact is, I agree wholly with his philosophy of life." Taking this statement as a cue, the reporter ascribes to his church with a broad smile he again emphasized that he agreed with Darrow, and said, "I presume you will call me an atheist as I have no church connections." When asked if he believed in a Divine Creator, he replied that it would be impossible for any rational human being to not believe in God, but that did not believe in the present day religious organizations. "I have never asked God for any special dispensation of His will to please me. The fact is that there are many fellows who read the Bible daily and who pray every night and yet are always in trouble and broke." "Do you read the Bible?" Mr. Davis was asked. "Yes." he answered. "I have read the Bible many times through and can remember many churches, do not remember. My advice to people is to study the practical side of life and right living, to stop building so many churches and put some of their money into productive enterprises." Will Study Law Recent announcement that his prison record might bar him from taking a law examination seems not to distress Davis one bit. I can not conceive of a person of opportunity in a man's face because he made a mistake. I am a good citizen and I have proved it by my record here." According to Davis, he will take the Federal examination in Washington and will go into business with a brother who will prove he established a law practice. Davis was born in Washington and attended the old Mott school at 6th street and Florida avenue, where he completed the eighth grade. In speaking of prison law, Davis declared that he regarded the Maryland Penalty Act as ideal prison Penalties are treated fair and during his entire fourteen years, he had not been struck nor mistreated by a guard.

"This is hard on hats and bed linens, and causes many to sleep in night caps of varied types and hues. "Men want hair slick and they want it to stay where it is brushed. That's the secret of the tremendous demand for hair pomades among the Walker Company's efforts to produce a superior product for men only.
